is compelled by law to disclose any Confidential Information or the fact that Confidential Information has been made available to him by the Company, the Employee agrees that he will provide the Company with prompt written notice of such request, to
the extent such notice can be given and is permitted by law, so that the Company may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive compliance with the provisions of this Agreement. If a protective order or other remedy is not
obtained, or the Company waives compliance with the provisions of this Agreement, the Employee agrees that he will furnish only that portion of Confidential Information and other information that is legally required. 

(b) Third Party Information. The Employee understands that the Company may receive from third parties confidential or proprietary

disclose the trade secret to the attorney of the individual and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if the individual files any document containing the trade secret under seal and does not disclose the trade secret except
pursuant to court order.

Employee from making reports of possible violations of federal law or regulation to any governmental agency or entity in accordance with the provisions of and rules promulgated under Section 21F of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or

competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision of this Section 5 is invalid or unenforceable, the Company and the Employee agree that the court making the determination of invalidity or unenforceability will
have the power to reduce the scope, duration, or area of the term or provision, to delete 

  
 9 

 
specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention
of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Agreement will be enforceable as so modified after the expiration of the time within which the judgment may be appealed. In the event a court of competent jurisdiction determines the
Employee breached any term of provision of this Section 5, the Employee consents to the court extending the duration of the non-competition provisions contained in this
Section 5 to compensate the Company for the time period the Employee was in violation of such provisions. 
 (e)
Acknowledgements. The Employee acknowledges and agrees that (i) his agreement to adhere to the restrictions in this Section 5 is ancillary to, and necessary to enforce, the mutual confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements in Section 3 of this Agreement; (ii) his obligation to comply with the restrictions in this Section 5 shall be independent of any
obligation owed to him by the Company or its Affiliates (whether under this Agreement or otherwise); (iii) no claim against the Company or its Affiliates by the Employee (whether under this Agreement or otherwise) shall constitute a defense to the
enforcement by the Company or its Affiliates of the restrictions in this Section 5; and (iv) the restrictions in this Section 5 are reasonable and necessary and do not impose a greater
restraint than necessary to protect the Company’s goodwill, Confidential Information, and other legitimate business interests.

County of Harris, Texas, with subject matter jurisdiction over the action or the United States District Court, Southern District of Texas, U.S.A. and, in any such action or proceeding, consent to jurisdiction in such courts and waive any objection
to the venue in any such court. AS A SPECIFICALLY BARGAINED INDUCEMENT FOR EACH OF THE PARTIES TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT (EACH PARTY HAVING HAD OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT COUNSEL), EACH PARTY EXPRESSLY: (A) WAIVES THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN
ANY PROCEEDING RELATING TO OR ARISING IN ANY WAY FROM THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED IN THIS AGREEMENT, AND (B) AGREES THAT SUIT TO ENFORCE ANY PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT OR TO OBTAIN ANY REMEDY WITH RESPECT HERETO SHALL BE
BROUGHT EXCLUSIVELY IN THE STATE OR FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED IN HARRIS COUNTY, STATE OF TEXAS, U.S.A., OR THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR TEXAS, SOUTHERN DISTRICT, AND EACH PARTY HERETO EXPRESSLY AND IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE JURISDICTION OF
SUCH COURTS. 
 (g) Remedies Upon Breach. In addition to, and not in limitation of, the provisions of Sections 3,
4 and 5 of this Agreement, the Employee agrees that any breach, or threatened breach, of this Agreement by the Employee could cause irreparable damage to the Company and that in the event of such breach the Company shall have, in
addition to any and all remedies of law, the right to an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief to prevent the violation of any obligations under this Agreement, without the necessity of proving irreparable damage or posting a
bond. 
 (h) Consent and Waiver by Third Parties. The Employee hereby represents and warrants that the Employee’s employment
with the Company on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Employee’s execution and performance of this Agreement do not constitute a breach or violation of any other agreement, obligation or understanding with any third
party. The Employee represents that the Employee is not bound by any agreement or any other existing or previous business relationship which conflicts with, or may conflict with, the performance of the Employee’s obligations under this
Agreement or prevent the full performance of the Employee’s duties and obligations under this Agreement. The Employee also represents that this Agreement does not violate or cause a violation of any judgment, order, or decree to which the
Employee is subject. 
 (i) Amendment and Waiver. The provisions of this Agreement may be amended and waived only with the prior
written consent of the Company and the Employee. 
 (j) No Strict Construction. The language used in this Agreement shall be deemed
to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent and no rule of strict construction shall be applied against any party. 

  
 12 

 (k) Termination of Employment. As used in this Agreement, “termination of
employment” means the Employee’s “separation from service” from the employer, as that term is defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h). 

(l) 409A. This Agreement is intended to comply with and be interpreted in accordance with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended (the “Code”) and the United States Department of Treasury regulations and other guidance issued thereunder (collectively, “Section 409A”). The parties acknowledge and agree that the interpretation
of Section 409A and its application to the terms of this Agreement is uncertain and may be subject to change as additional guidance and interpretations become available. Anything to the contrary herein notwithstanding, all benefits or payments
provided by the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates to the Employee that would be deemed to constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A are intended to comply with Section 409A. If, however,
any such benefit or payment is deemed to not comply with Section 409A, the Company and the Employee agree to renegotiate in good faith any such benefit or payment (including, without limitation, as to the timing of any severance payments payable
hereof) so that either (i) Section 409A will not apply or (ii) compliance with Section 409A will be achieved. In no event whatsoever shall the Company or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates be liable for any tax, interest or penalties that may
be imposed on the Employee by Section 409A of the Code or any damages for failing to comply with Section 409A. 
 Each payment in a series
of payments provided to the Employee pursuant to this Agreement will be deemed a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A. 

  
 13 

 In the event that the Employee is determined by the Company to be a “specified
employee” for purposes of Section 409A at the time of his separation from service with the Company, any payments of nonqualified deferred compensation (after giving effect to any exemptions available under Section 409A) otherwise payable to the
Employee during the first six (6) months following his separation from service shall be delayed and paid in a lump sum upon the earlier of (x) the Employee’s date of death, or (y) the first day of the seventh (7th) month
following the Employee’s separation from service, and the balance of the installments (if any) will be payable in accordance with their original schedule. 

To the extent any expense, reimbursement or in-kind benefit provided to the Employee constitutes
nonqualified deferred compensation for purposes of Section 409A, (i) the amount of any expense eligible for reimbursement or the provision of any in-kind benefit with respect to any calendar year shall
not affect the amount of expense eligible for reimbursement or the amount of in-kind benefit provided to the Employee in any other calendar year, (ii) the reimbursements for expenses for which the
Employee is entitled to be reimbursed shall be made on or before the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the applicable expense is incurred, and (iii) the right to payment or reimbursement or in-kind benefits hereunder may not be subject to liquidation for any other benefit; provided, however, that the foregoing clause (i) shall not be violated with regard to expenses reimbursed under
any arrangement covered by Section 105(b) of the Code solely because such expenses are subject to a limit related to the period the arrangement is in effect. 

(m) ADVICE OF COUNSEL. THE EMPLOYEE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE EMPLOYEE IS NOT RELYING UPON
THE ADVICE OF THE COMPANY OR THE COMPANY’S COUNSEL AND HAS BEEN ADVISED, AND HAS BEEN PROVIDED SUFFICIENT TIME, TO ENGAGE INDEPENDENT COUNSEL TO ASSIST THE EMPLOYEE IN EVALUATING THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT.

effective as of such Computation Date and shall remain effective through the next succeeding Computation Date. 
 (ii) Wherever in this
Agreement in connection with a Borrowing, conversion, continuation or prepayment of an Advance or the issuance, amendment or extension of a Letter of Credit, an amount (such as a required minimum or multiple amount) is expressed in Canadian Dollars,
but such Borrowing, Advance or Letter of Credit is denominated in Dollars, such amount shall be the Dollar Equivalent of such Canadian Dollar amount (rounded to the nearest cent, with 0.5 of a cent being rounded upward). 

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of any determination under Article 5 (other than the Financial Statements and the calculation
of the financial ratios for purposes of the Compliance Certificate), Article 6 (other than Sections 6.16 or 6.17) or Article 7, in each case, with respect to the amount of any Debt (including the refinancing or replacement of such Debt), Lien,
Investment, Acquisition, contractual restriction, Disposition, Restricted Payment, affiliate transaction, sale and leaseback transaction, operating lease, Debt prepayment or other transaction, event or circumstance, or any other determination under
any other provision of this Agreement expressly requiring the use of a current exchange rate (any of the foregoing, a “subject transaction”) in a currency other than Dollars, (i) the Dollar Equivalent amount of a subject transaction
in a currency other than Dollars shall be calculated based on the rate of exchange quoted under the heading “Foreign Exchange Rates” on www.bloomberg.com (or, only in the event that the “Foreign Exchange Rates” are not available
on www.bloomberg.com, by reference to such other publicly available service for displaying exchange rates as may be agreed up by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (it being understood that the Administrative Agent consents to
www.reuters.com for such purpose) for such foreign currency, as in effect at 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the date of such specified transaction. For purposes of delivering Financial Statements under Section 5.2, the Borrower shall
(i) use the rate of exchange quoted under the heading “Foreign Exchange Cross Rates” on www.bloomberg.com (or, only in the event that the “Foreign 

  
 36 

 
Exchange Cross Rates” are not available on www.bloomberg.com, by reference to such other publicly available service for displaying exchange rates as may be agreed upon by the Administrative
Agent and the Borrower (it being understood that the Administrative Agent consents to www.reuters.com for such purpose), (ii) expressly state in such Financial Statements the applicable exchange rate being applied and (iii) use the same
exchange rate for Financial Statements and other financial information that cover the same period. For purposes of calculating the financial ratios under Sections 6.16 or 6.17, on any date of determination, amounts in currencies other than Dollars
(whether included in the numerator or the denominator (or both) of such financial ratios) shall be translated into Dollars at the currency exchange rate used in preparing the Financial Statements as provided above, and will, in the case of Debt,
reflect the currency effects, determined in accordance with GAAP, of Hedging Arrangements permitted hereunder for currency exchange risks with respect to the applicable currency in effect on the date of determination of the Dollar Equivalent of such
Debt. 
 (c) With respect to any proposed Borrowing denominated in Canadian Dollars or any proposed issuance of a Letter of Credit
denominated in Canadian Dollars, if there shall occur, on or prior to the date of such proposed Borrowing or issuance, any change in national or international financial, political or economic conditions or currency exchange rates or exchange
controls which (x) would in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent or the Majority Lenders, make it impracticable or illegal for such Borrowing or such Letter of Credit to be denominated in Canadian Dollars or (y) make Canadian
Dollars not freely transferable and convertible into Dollars in the London, Canadian or US foreign exchange market, then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders, and the right of the Borrower to select
Advances in Canadian Dollars for such Borrowing or for any subsequent Borrowing and to have Letters of Credit denominated in Canadian Dollars issued for the account of any Credit Party shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify
the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and each Advance comprising such Borrowing shall be made in the Dollar Equivalent of the originally requested Advance and each Letter of Credit shall be
issued in the Dollar Equivalent of the face amount of the originally proposed Letter of Credit. 
 Section 1.7. Pro Forma
Calculations. For purposes of all financial ratios and testing the covenants set forth in Sections 6.16 and 6.17 or to determine whether a condition to a specific action has been or will be satisfied, such calculation shall be made after giving
effect to any Specified Transaction as follows: (a) consolidated Net Income and EBITDA shall be calculated on a pro forma basis for such event as set forth in the definition of EBITDA and (b) subject to the following sentence, any Debt or
other liabilities to be incurred or assumed or repaid or retired in connection therewith shall be deemed to have been consummated and incurred, assumed, repaid or retired as of the first day of the applicable measurement period with respect to such
covenant, test or condition (and assuming all Debt so incurred or assumed bears interest during any portion of the applicable measurement period prior to the relevant event (A) in the case of fixed rate Debt, at the rate applicable thereto, or
(B) in the case of floating rate Debt, at the rates in effect on the date of determination). Notwithstanding the foregoing, solely for purposes of testing the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio covenant set forth in Section 6.17 (and not for any
other purpose (including the pro forma calculation under Section 3.1(m) or for testing any condition required under any other covenant)), the Advances incurred under this Agreement on the Closing Date shall be included in such calculation as Debt
incurred on the Closing Date and shall not be deemed to have been incurred as of the first day of the applicable measurement period and the Debt repaid with such Advances on the Closing Date shall be calculated as being repaid on the Closing Date
and shall not be deemed to have been repaid as of the first day of the applicable measurement period. 
 Section 1.8. Non-Business Day Payments and Performance. Whenever any payment or the performance of any obligation or covenant hereunder or under any other Credit Document shall be stated

  
 37 

 
to be due on a day other than a Business Day, payment or performance of such obligation or covenant shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and, if applicable, such extension of time
shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or fees, as the case may be; provided that if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurocurrency Advances to be made in the next following calendar
month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.

CREDIT FACILITIES 

Section 2.1. Revolving and Term Commitments. 

(a) Revolving Commitment. Each Revolving Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to make
Revolving Advances to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date until the Revolving Maturity Date; provided that after giving effect to such Revolving Advances, the Revolving Outstandings shall
not exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments in effect at such time. Each Revolving Borrowing shall (A) if comprised of Base Rate Advances be in an aggregate amount not less than C$500,000 and in integral multiples of C$100,000 in excess
thereof (or the remaining amount of the Revolving Commitments, if less), (B) if comprised of Eurocurrency Advances be in an aggregate amount not less than C$1,000,000 and in integral multiples of C$500,000 in excess thereof (or the remaining amount
of the Revolving Commitments, if less), (C) if comprised of B/A Advances be in such minimum amounts as required under Section 2.18 and (D) consist of Revolving Advances of the same Type made on the same day by the Revolving Lenders ratably
according to their respective Revolving Commitments; provided that, the aggregate Revolving Borrowings to be made on the Closing Date shall not exceed the Canadian Dollar Equivalent of $5,000,000. Within the limits of each Lender’s
Revolving Commitment, the Borrower may from time to time borrow, prepay pursuant to Section 2.5, and reborrow under this Section 2.1(a). 

(b) Term Commitment. Each Term Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to make to the
Borrower on the Closing Date (and if applicable, on the effective date of a Commitment Increase), a Term Advance in Canadian Dollars in an amount not to exceed such Lender’s Term Commitment (as such Term Commitment may have been increased
pursuant to Section 2.17). The Borrower may not reborrow any Term Advances that have been repaid. 
 (c) Reduction of the
Commitments. 
 (i) Revolving Commitments. The Borrower shall have the right, upon at least three Business
Days’ irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, to terminate in whole or reduce in part the unused portion of the Revolving Commitments; provided that each partial reduction shall be in a minimum amount of C$1,000,000 and in
integral multiples of C$1,000,000 in excess thereof (or the remaining amount of the Revolving Commitments, if less). Any reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.1(c)(i) shall be applied ratably to each
Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment and shall be permanent, with no obligation of the Revolving Lenders to reinstate such Revolving Commitments, and the applicable Commitment Fees shall thereafter be computed on the basis of the Revolving
Commitments, as so reduced; provided that a notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other transactions, in which case such notice may be
revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. 

(ii) Term Commitments. On the making of the Term Advances on the Closing Date, each Term Lender’s Term Commitment
in effect on the Closing Date shall be reduced to zero. On the making of the Term Advances on any Increase Date, each Term Lender’s Term Commitment, as increased by such Commitment Increase, shall be reduced to zero. Any reduction or
termination of the Term Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.1(c)(ii) shall be permanent, with no obligation of the Term Lenders to reinstate such Term Commitments. 

  
 38 

 (d) Termination of Defaulting Lender Commitments. (i) The Borrower may terminate the
unused amount of the Revolving Commitment of any Revolving Lender that is a Defaulting Lender and (ii) the Borrower may terminate the Term Commitment of any Term Lender that has unfunded Term Commitments and is a Defaulting Lender, in each
case, upon not less than two Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders thereof), and in such event the provisions of Section 2.15(a)(ii) will apply to all amounts thereafter paid by the
Borrower for the account of such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity or other amounts); provided that (A) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and
(B) such termination shall not be deemed to be a waiver or release of any claim the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender, the Swing Line Lender or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender. 

(e) Evidence of Debt. The Advances made by each Lender (including the Swing Line Advances made by each Swing Line Lender), shall be
evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by Administrative Agent and the applicable Lenders shall be conclusive
absent manifest error of the amount of the Advances made by such Lenders to the Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so 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 the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters,
the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender to the Borrower made through the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through
the Administrative Agent) a Revolving Note or a Term Note, as applicable, which shall evidence such Lender’s Advances to the Borrower in addition to such accounts or records. Upon the request of the Swing Line Lender to the Borrower, the
Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Swing Line Lender the Swing Line Note which shall evidence the applicable Swing Line Advances to the Borrower in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to such Notes and
endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount, and maturity of its Advances and payments with respect thereto. In addition to the accounts and records referred to in the immediately preceding sentences, each Lender, each Issuing Lender and
Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records evidencing the purchases and sales by such Lender of participations in Letters of Credit. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records
maintained by the Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any Lender (other than the Issuing Lenders) in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. In
the event of any conflict among the accounts and records maintained by the Administrative Agent, the accounts and records maintained by each Issuing Lender as to Letters of Credit issued by it, and the accounts and records of any other Lender in
respect of such matters, the accounts and records of such Issuing Lender shall control in the absence of manifest error.

reliance upon the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Section 2.2, from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date until the Revolving Maturity Date, to issue, increase or extend the expiration date
of, Letters of Credit for the account of any Credit Party, provided that no Letter of Credit will be issued, increased, or extended: 

(i) if such issuance, increase, or extension would cause the Letter of Credit Exposure to exceed the lesser of (A) the
Letter of Credit Maximum Amount and (B) an amount equal to the aggregate Revolving Commitments, in either case, in effect at such time minus (2) the sum of the aggregate outstanding amount of all Revolving Advances and Swing Line
Advances;

its issuance or extension and (B) five Business Days prior to the Revolving Maturity Date (an “Acceptable Letter of Credit Maturity Date”); provided that, (1) if the Revolving Commitments are terminated in whole pursuant
to Section 2.1(c)(i), the Borrower shall either (A) deposit into the Cash Collateral Account cash in an amount equal to 105% of the Letter of Credit Exposure for the Letters of Credit which have an expiry date beyond the date the Revolving
Commitments are terminated or (B) provide a replacement letter of credit (or other security) reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Lender in an amount equal to 105% of the Letter of Credit Exposure, and
(2) any such Letter of Credit with a one-year tenor may expressly provide for an automatic extension of one additional year so long as such Letter of Credit expressly allows the applicable Issuing Lender, at its sole discretion, to elect not to
provide such extension; provided that, in any event, such automatic extension may not result in an expiration date that occurs after the fifth Business Day prior to the Revolving Maturity Date; 

(iii) unless such Letter of Credit is a standby or documentary letter of credit; 

(iv) unless such Letter of Credit is in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the applicable Issuing Lender in its sole
discretion; 
 (v) unless the Borrower has delivered to the applicable Issuing Lender a completed and executed Letter of
Credit Application; provided that, if the terms of any Letter of Credit Application conflicts or is inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, the terms of this Agreement or such other Credit Document shall control;
provided further that, the inclusion in such Letter of Credit Application of terms and provisions, and rights or remedies in favor of such Issuing Lender, which are not addressed in this Agreement or any Credit Document shall not be deemed to be in
conflict or inconsistent with this Agreement or any Credit Document; 
 (vi) unless such Letter of Credit is governed by
(A) the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits (2007 Revision), International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 600, or (B) the International Standby Practices (ISP98), International Chamber of Commerce Publication
No. 590, in either case, including any subsequent revisions thereof approved by a Congress of the International Chamber of Commerce and adhered to by the applicable Issuing Lender; 

(vii) if any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or
restrain any Issuing Lender from issuing, increasing or 

  
 40 

 
extending such Letter of Credit, or any Legal Requirement applicable to such Issuing Lender or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority
with jurisdiction over such Issuing Lender shall prohibit, or request that such Issuing Lender refrain from, the issuance, increase or extension of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Issuing
Lender with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such Issuing Lender is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon such Issuing Lender any
unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which such Issuing Lender in good faith deems material to it; 

(viii) if the issuance, increase or extension of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of the applicable
Issuing Lender applicable to letters of credit generally; 
 (ix) if any Revolving Lender is at such time a Defaulting Lender
hereunder, unless each Issuing Lender has entered into reasonably satisfactory arrangements with the Borrower or such Lender to eliminate such Issuing Lender’s risk with respect to such Lender, including to Cash Collateralize such Defaulting
Lender’s Applicable Pro Rata Share of the Letter of Credit Exposure; 
 (x) if Letter of Credit is to be denominated in
a currency other than Dollars or Canadian Dollars; or 
 (xi) if such Letter of Credit supports the obligations of any Person
in respect of (x) a lease of real property or (y) an employment contract if the applicable Issuing Lender reasonably determines that the Borrower’s obligation to reimburse any draws under such Letter of Credit may be limited. 

(b) Requesting Letters of Credit. Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, pursuant to a Letter of Credit
Application given by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Lender by facsimile or other writing not later than 11:00 a.m. (Houston, Texas, time) on the third Business Day before the proposed date of issuance or
amendment for the Letter of Credit. Each Letter of Credit Application shall be fully completed and shall specify the information required therein. Each Letter of Credit Application shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. Subject to the
terms and conditions hereof, the applicable Issuing Lender shall before 2:00 p.m. (Houston, Texas, time) on the issuance or amendment date set forth in such Letter of Credit Application issue or amend such Letter of Credit to the beneficiary of such
Letter of Credit. 
 (c) Reimbursements for Letters of Credit; Funding of Participations. 

(i) In the event of any drawing under any Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower
and the Administrative Agent. With respect to any Letter of Credit, in accordance with the related Letter of Credit Application, the Borrower agrees to pay on demand to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the applicable Issuing Lender an amount
equal to any amount paid by such Issuing Lender under such Letter of Credit; provided that, the Borrower shall pay such amounts on the day of demand if notice of such drawing and demand for payment is prior to 2:00 p.m. (Houston, Texas time) on a
Business Day and if such notice is after 2:00 p.m. (Houston, Texas time), the Borrower shall pay such amounts owed to such Issuing Lender on the following Business Day; provided further that, in any event, such amount paid by such Issuing Lender
under such Letter of Credit shall accrue interest at the 

  
 41 

 
interest rate applicable to (x) in the case of Letters of Credit denominated in Canadian Dollars, Revolving Advances that are Canadian Base Rate Advances and (y) in the case of Letters
of Credit denominated in Dollars, Revolving Advances that are US Base Rate Advances until such amount is reimbursed by the Borrower (including by receipt of proceeds from Revolving Advances), subject to Section 2.8(f). Upon such Issuing
Lender’s demand for payment under the terms of a Letter of Credit Application, the Borrower may, with a written notice, request that the Borrower’s obligations to such Issuing Lender thereunder be satisfied with the proceeds of a Revolving
Advance in the same amount and currency (notwithstanding any minimum size or increment limitations on individual Revolving Advances). If the Borrower does not make such request and does not otherwise make the payments demanded by such Issuing Lender
as required under this Agreement or the Letter of Credit Application, then the Borrower shall be deemed for all purposes of this Agreement to have requested a Swing Line Advance in the same amount and currency and the transfer of the proceeds
thereof to satisfy the Borrower’s obligations to such Issuing Lender, and the Borrower hereby unconditionally and irrevocably authorizes, empowers, and directs the Swing Line Lender to make such Swing Line Advance, to transfer the proceeds
thereof to such Issuing Lender in satisfaction of such obligations, and to record and otherwise treat such payments as a Swing Line Advance to the Borrower. The Administrative Agent and the Swing Line Lender may record and otherwise treat the making
of such Swing Line Borrowing as the making of a Swing Line Borrowing to the Borrower under this Agreement as if requested by the Borrower. Nothing herein is intended to release the Borrower’s obligations under any Letter of Credit Application,
but only to provide an additional method of payment therefor. The making of any Borrowing under this Section 2.2(c) shall not constitute a cure or waiver of any Default, other than the payment Default which is satisfied by the application of the
amounts deemed advanced hereunder, caused by the Borrower’s failure to comply with the provisions of this Agreement or the Letter of Credit Application. 

(ii) Each Revolving Lender (including each Revolving Lender acting as an Issuing Lender) shall, upon notice from the
Administrative Agent that the Borrower has requested a Revolving Advance pursuant to Section 2.4 and regardless of whether (A) the conditions in Section 3.2 have been met, (B) such notice complies with Section 2.4, or
(C) a Default exists, make funds available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender in an amount equal to such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Pro Rata Share of the amount of such Revolving Advance not
later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon each Revolving Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Revolving Advance to the Borrower in such amount. The
Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the applicable Issuing Lender. 
 (iii) If any such Revolving
Lender shall not have so made its Revolving Advance available to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.2, such Revolving Lender agrees to pay interest thereon for each day from such date until the date such amount is paid at the
lesser of (A) the Overnight Rate for such day for the first three days and thereafter the interest rate applicable to the Revolving Advance and (B) the Maximum Rate. Whenever, at any time after the Administrative Agent has received from
any Revolving Lender such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Advance, the Administrative Agent receives any payment on account thereof, the Administrative Agent will pay to such Revolving Lender its participating interest in such amount
(appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Advance was outstanding and funded), which payment shall be subject to repayment by such Revolving Lender if
such payment received by the Administrative Agent is required to be returned. Each Revolving Lender’s obligation to make the 

  
 42 

 
Revolving Advance pursuant to this Section 2.2 shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (1) any
set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Lender or any other Person may have against any Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent or any other Person for any reason
whatsoever; (2) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or the termination of the Revolving Commitments; (3) any breach of this Agreement by any Credit Party or any other Revolving Lender; or (4) any other circumstance, happening
or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. 
 (d) Participations. Upon the date of the issuance or increase
of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have sold to each other Revolving Lender and each other Revolving Lender shall have been deemed to have purchased from such Issuing Lender a participation in the related Letter
of Credit Obligations equal to such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Pro Rata Share at such date and such sale and purchase shall otherwise be in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Such Issuing Lender shall promptly notify each such
participant Revolving Lender by facsimile, telephone, or electronic mail (PDF) of each Letter of Credit issued or increased and the actual dollar amount of such Revolving Lender’s participation in such Letter of Credit. If at any time, the
Revolving Commitments shall have expired or shall have been terminated while any Letter of Credit Exposure is outstanding, each Revolving Lender, at the sole option of the Issuing Lenders, shall fund its participation in such Letters of Credit in an
amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the unpaid amount of the Borrower’s payment obligations under drawn Letters of Credit in the currency so paid by the applicable Issuing Lender. The Issuing Lenders shall notify the
Administrative Agent, and in turn, the Administrative Agent shall notify each such Revolving Lender of the amount of such participation, and such Revolving Lender will transfer to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Issuing Lender on
the next Business Day following such notice, in Same Day Funds, the amount of such participation. At any time after any Issuing Lender has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any Revolving Lender funding of its
participation in respect of such payment in accordance with this clause (d), if the Administrative Agent receives for the account of such Issuing Lender any payment in respect of the related Letter of Credit Exposure or interest thereon (whether
directly from the Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent shall distribute to such Revolving Lender its Pro Rata Share thereof in the same funds as those
received by the Administrative Agent. 
 (e) Obligations Unconditional. The obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement in
respect of each Letter of Credit shall be unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, notwithstanding the following circumstances: 

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit Documents; 

(ii) any amendment or waiver of the obligations of the Borrower or any consent to departure by the Borrower from any Letter of
Credit Documents; 
 (iii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other
right which any Credit Party may have at any time against any beneficiary or transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Persons for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), any Issuing Lender, any Lender or any other Person
or entity, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated in this Agreement or in any Letter of Credit Documents or any unrelated transaction; 

  
 43 

 (iv) any statement or any other document presented under such 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 to the extent any Issuing Lender would not be liable therefor pursuant to the following paragraph (g); 

(v) payment by the applicable Issuing Lender under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate which
does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or 
 (vi) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether
or not similar to any of the foregoing; 
 provided, however, that nothing contained in this paragraph (e) shall be deemed to constitute a
waiver of any remedies of the Borrower in connection with the Letters of Credit. 
 (f) Prepayments of Letters of Credit. In the
event that any Letter of Credit shall be outstanding or shall be drawn and not reimbursed on or prior to the fifth Business Day prior to the Revolving Maturity Date (or on the Maturity Date in the event the Revolving Maturity Date occurs as a result
of the optional termination in whole of the Revolving Commitments pursuant to Section 2.1(c)), the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to 105% of the Letter of Credit Exposure allocable to such Letter of Credit and in the
applicable currency of such Letter of Credit, such amount to be due and payable on the fifth Business Day prior to the Revolving Maturity Date (or on the Maturity Date in the event the Revolving Maturity Date occurs as a result of the optional
termination in whole of the Revolving Commitments pursuant to Section 2.1(c)), and to be held in the Cash Collateral Account and applied in accordance with paragraph (h) below. From time to time thereafter, upon written notice by the
Administrative Agent that, as a result of a change in the Agent’s Exchange Rate, the amount held in the Cash Collateral Account is less than the sum of (i) 105% of the Letter of Credit Exposure allocable to such Letters of Credit and
(ii) the amount otherwise required to be held in such Cash Collateral Account pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, then the Borrower shall, within one Business Day after such notice is received, deposit additional funds into the Cash
Collateral Account in an amount equal to such deficiency. 
 (g) Liability of Issuing Lender. The Borrower assumes all risks of the
acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee of any Letter of Credit with respect to its use of such Letter of Credit. Neither the Issuing Lenders nor any of their officers or directors shall be liable or responsible for: 

(i) the use which may be made of any Letter of Credit or any acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee in connection
therewith; 
 (ii) the validity, sufficiency or genuineness of documents, or of any endorsement thereon, even if such
documents should prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, fraudulent or forged; 
 (iii) payment by the
applicable Issuing Lender against presentation of documents which do not comply with the terms of a Letter of Credit, including failure of any documents to bear any reference or adequate reference to the relevant Letter of Credit; or 

(iv) any other circumstances whatsoever in making or failing to make payment under any Letter of Credit (INCLUDING ANY
ISSUING LENDER’S OWN NEGLIGENCE), 

  
 44 

 
except that the Borrower shall have a claim against any Issuing Lender, and such Issuing Lender shall be liable to, and shall promptly pay to, the Borrower, to the extent of any direct, as
opposed to consequential, damages suffered by the Borrower which a court in a final, non-appealable finding rules were caused by such Issuing Lender’s willful misconduct or gross negligence in determining
whether documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, each Issuing Lender may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without
responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary. 
 (h) Cash Collateral Account.

 (i) If the Borrower is required to deposit funds in the Cash Collateral Account pursuant to Sections 2.2(a)(ii), 2.2(f),
2.5(c)(viii), 7.2(b) or 7.3(b) or any other provision under this Agreement, then the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall establish the Cash Collateral Account and the Borrower shall execute any documents and agreements, including the
Administrative Agent’s standard form assignment of deposit accounts, that the Administrative Agent reasonably requests in connection therewith to establish the Cash Collateral Account and grant the Administrative Agent an Acceptable Security
Interest in such account and the funds therein. The Borrower hereby pledges to the Administrative Agent and grants the Administrative Agent a security interest in the Cash Collateral Account, whenever established, all funds held in the Cash
Collateral Account from time to time, and all proceeds thereof as security for the payment of the Secured Obligations. 

(ii) Funds held in the Cash Collateral Account shall be held as Cash Collateral for obligations with respect to Letters of
Credit or outstanding Swing Line Advances, as applicable, and promptly applied by the Administrative Agent at the request of the applicable Issuing Lender or applicable Swing Line Lender to any reimbursement or other obligations under Letters of
Credit that exist or occur and to any outstanding Swing Line Advances, as applicable. To the extent that any surplus funds are held in the Cash Collateral Account above the Letter of Credit Exposure and the outstanding amount of the Swing Line
Advances during the existence of an Event of Default the Administrative Agent may (A) hold such surplus funds in the Cash Collateral Account as Cash Collateral for the Secured Obligations or (B) apply such surplus funds to any Secured
Obligations in any manner directed by the Majority Lenders. If no Event of Default exists, then at the Borrower’s request, the Administrative Agent shall release any surplus funds held in the Cash Collateral Account above the sum of
(x) the Letter of Credit Exposure (or in the case of any Letter of Credit with an expiration date beyond the fifth Business Day prior to the Maturity Date, 105% of the Letter of Credit Exposure allocable to such Letter of Credit) and
(y) all Defaulting Lenders’ Applicable Pro Rata Share of outstanding Swing Line Advances other than Swing Line Advances as to which such Defaulting Lender’s participation obligation has been funded by it, Cash Collateralized or
reallocated to other Lenders. 
 (iii) Funds held in the Cash Collateral Account may be invested in Liquid Investments
maintained with, and under the sole dominion and control of, the Administrative Agent or in another investment if mutually agreed upon by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, but the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to make any
investment of the funds therein. The Administrative Agent shall exercise reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any funds held in the Cash Collateral Account and shall be deemed to have exercised such care if such funds are accorded
treatment substantially equivalent to that which the Administrative Agent accords its own property, it being understood that the Administrative Agent shall not have any responsibility for taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any
parties with respect to any such funds. 

  
 45 

 (i) Letters of Credit Issued for Guarantors or any Subsidiary. Notwithstanding that a
Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Guarantor or any Subsidiary, the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender hereunder for any and all
drawings under such Letter of Credit issued hereunder by such Issuing Lender. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of any Guarantor, the Borrower or any Subsidiary inures to the benefit of the
Borrower, and that the Borrower’s businesses (indirectly or directly) derive substantial benefits from the businesses of such other Persons. 

Section 2.3. Swing Line Advances. 

(a) Facility. On the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, and if an AutoBorrow Agreement is in effect, subject to the
terms and conditions of such AutoBorrow Agreement, the Swing Line Lender may (but is not obligated to), in its sole discretion, from time-to-time on any Business Day
during the period from the date of this Agreement until the last Business Day occurring before the Revolving Maturity Date, make Swing Line Advances to the Borrower which shall be due and payable as provided in Section 2.6(c) and bear interest as
provided in Section 2.8(c), and in an aggregate outstanding principal amount not to exceed the Swing Line Sublimit Amount at any time; provided that (i) after giving effect to such Swing Line Advance, the sum of the aggregate outstanding
amount of all Revolving Advances plus the Letter of Credit Exposure plus the aggregate outstanding amount of all Swing Line Advances, shall not exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments in effect at such time; (ii) no Swing Line Advance shall
be made by the Swing Line Lender if the conditions set forth in Section 3.2 have not been met as of the date of such Swing Line Advance, it being agreed by the Borrower that the giving of the applicable Notice of Revolving Borrowing and the
acceptance by the Borrower of the proceeds of such Swing Line Advance shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrower that on the date of such Swing Line Advance such conditions have been met; (iii) only if an AutoBorrow
Agreement is not in effect, each Swing Line Advance shall be in an aggregate amount not less than C$100,000 and in integral multiples of C$50,000 in excess thereof; and (iv) if an AutoBorrow Agreement is in effect, such additional terms and
conditions of such AutoBorrow Agreement shall have been satisfied, and in the event that any of the terms of this Section 2.3(a) conflict with such AutoBorrow Agreement, the terms of the AutoBorrow Agreement shall govern and control. No Lender shall
have any rights or obligations under any AutoBorrow Agreement, but each Revolving Lender shall have the obligation to purchase and fund risk participations in the Swing Line Advances and to refinance Swing Line Advances as provided below. 

(b) Prepayment. Within the limits expressed in this Agreement, amounts advanced pursuant to Section 2.3(a) may from time to time be
borrowed, prepaid without penalty, and reborrowed. If the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Swing Line Advances ever exceeds the Swing Line Sublimit Amount, the Borrower shall, upon receipt of written notice of such condition from the
Swing Line Lender and to the extent of such excess, prepay to the Swing Line Lender outstanding principal of the Swing Line Advances such that such excess is eliminated. If an AutoBorrow Agreement is in effect, each prepayment of a Swing Line
Borrowing shall be made as provided in such AutoBorrow Agreement. 
 (c) Reimbursements for Swing Line Obligations. 

(i) With respect to the Swing Line Advances and the interest, premium, fees, and other amounts owed by the Borrower to the
Swing Line Lender in connection with the Swing Line Advances, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Swing Line Lender such amounts when due and payable to the Swing Line Lender under the terms of this Agreement and, if an AutoBorrow

  
 46 

 
Agreement is in effect, in accordance with the terms of such AutoBorrow Agreement. If the Borrower does not pay to the Swing Line Lender any such amounts when due and payable to the Swing Line
Lender, the Swing Line Lender may upon notice to the Administrative Agent request the satisfaction of such obligation by the making of a Revolving Borrowing in the amount of any such amounts not paid when due and payable. Upon such request, the
Borrower shall be deemed to have requested the making of a Revolving Borrowing in the amount of such obligation and the transfer of the proceeds thereof to the Swing Line Lender (and with respect to Swing Line Advances denominated in Dollars, the
deemed requested Revolving Borrowing shall consist of Eurocurrency Advances with an Interest Period of one month, commencing three Business Days following such request). The Administrative Agent shall promptly forward notice of such Revolving
Borrowing to the Borrower and the Revolving Lenders, and each Revolving Lender shall, regardless of whether (A) the conditions in Section 3.2 have been met, (B) such notice complies with Section 2.4, or (C) a Default exists,
make available such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Pro Rata Share of such Revolving Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver the proceeds thereof to the Swing Line Lender for application to such
amounts owed to the Swing Line Lender. The Borrower hereby unconditionally and irrevocably authorizes, empowers, and directs the Swing Line Lender to make such requests for Revolving Borrowings on behalf of the Borrower, and the Revolving Lenders to
make Revolving Advances to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Swing Line Lender in satisfaction of such obligations. The Administrative Agent and each Revolving Lender may record and otherwise treat the making of such Revolving
Borrowings as the making of a Revolving Borrowing to the Borrower under this Agreement as if requested by the Borrower. Nothing herein is intended to release the Borrower’s obligations under the Swing Line Note, but only to provide an
additional method of payment therefor. The making of any Borrowing under this Section 2.3(c) shall not constitute a cure or waiver of any Default or Event of Default, other than the payment Default or Event of Default which is satisfied by the
application of the amounts deemed advanced hereunder, caused by the Borrower’s failure to comply with the provisions of this Agreement or the Swing Line Note. 

(ii) If at any time the Revolving Commitments shall have expired or be terminated while any Swing Line Advance is outstanding,
each Revolving Lender, at the sole option of the Swing Line Lender, shall either (A) notwithstanding the expiration or termination of the Revolving Commitments, make a Revolving Advance as a Canadian Base Rate Advance, or (B) be deemed,
without further action by any Person, to have purchased from the Swing Line Lender a participation in such Swing Line Advance, in either case in an amount equal to the product of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Pro Rata Share times the
outstanding aggregate principal balance of the Swing Line Advances. The Administrative Agent shall notify each such Revolving Lender of the amount of such Revolving Advance or participation, and such Revolving Lender will transfer to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender on the next Business Day following such notice, in Same Day Funds, the amount of such Revolving Advance or participation. 

(iii) If any such Revolving Lender shall not have so made its Revolving Advance or its percentage participation available to
the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.3, such Revolving Lender agrees to pay interest thereon for each day from such date until the date such amount is paid at the lesser of (A) the Overnight Rate for such day for the first
three days and thereafter the interest rate applicable to the Revolving Advance and (B) the Maximum Rate. Whenever, at any time after the Administrative Agent has received from any Revolving Lender such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Advance
or participating interest in a Swing Line Advance, 

  
 47 

 
the Administrative Agent receives any payment on account thereof, the Administrative Agent will pay to such Revolving Lender its participating interest in such amount (appropriately adjusted, in
the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Advance or participating interest was outstanding and funded), which payment shall be subject to repayment by such Revolving Lender if
such payment received by the Administrative Agent is required to be returned. Each Revolving Lender’s obligation to make the Revolving Advance or purchase such participating interests pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall be absolute and
unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (1) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Lender or any other Person may have against
the Swing Line Lender, the Administrative Agent or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (2) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or the termination of the Revolving Commitments; (3) any breach of this Agreement by the Borrower
or any other Lender; or (4) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. Each Swing Line Advance, once so participated by any Revolving Lender, shall cease to be a Swing Line Advance
with respect to that amount for purposes of this Agreement, but shall continue to be a Revolving Advance. 
 (d) Method of Borrowing.
If an AutoBorrow Agreement is in effect, each Swing Line Borrowing shall be made as provided in such AutoBorrow Agreement. Otherwise, and except as provided in clause (c) above, each request for a Swing Line Advance shall be made pursuant to
telephone notice to the Swing Line Lender given no later than 10:00 a.m. (Houston, Texas time) for Swing Line Advances denominated in Canadian Dollars, in each case on the date of the proposed Swing Line Advance, promptly confirmed by a completed
and executed Notice of Revolving Borrowing telecopied, facsimiled, or, unless otherwise required by the Administrative Agent or Swing Line Lender prior to such delivery, electronic mail (PDF), to the Administrative Agent and the Swing Line Lender.
The Swing Line Lender will promptly make the Swing Line Advance available to the Borrower at its account with the Administrative Agent. 

(e) Interest for Account of Swing Line Lender. The Swing Line Lender shall be responsible for invoicing the Borrower for interest on
the Swing Line Advances (provided that any failure of the Swing Line Lender to provide such invoice shall not release the Borrower from its obligation to pay such interest). Until each Revolving Lender funds its Revolving Advance or risk
participation pursuant to clause (c) above, interest in respect of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Pro Rata Share of the Swing Line Advances shall be solely for the account of the Swing Line Lender. 

(f) Payments Directly to Swing Line Lender. The Borrower shall make all payments of principal and interest in respect of the Swing Line
Advances directly to the Swing Line Lender. 
 (g) Discretionary Nature of the Swing Line Facility. Notwithstanding any terms to the
contrary contained herein or in any AutoBorrow Agreement, the swing line facility provided herein or in any AutoBorrow Agreement (i) is an uncommitted facility and the Swing Line Lender may, but shall not be obligated to, make Swing Line
Advances, and (ii) may be terminated at any time by the Swing Line Lender upon written notice to the Borrower. 
 Section 2.4.
Advances. 
 (a) Notice. Each Borrowing (other than the Swing Line Borrowings and the Borrowings to be made on the Closing
Date), shall be made pursuant to the applicable Notice of Borrowing given not later than (i) 11:00 a.m. (Houston, Texas time) on the third Business Day before the date of the proposed Borrowing, in the case of a Eurocurrency Advance or a B/A
Advance, (ii) 11:00 a.m. (Houston, Texas 

  
 48 

 
time) on the Business Day before the date of the proposed Borrowing, in the case of a US Base Rate Advance, (iii) 10:00 am (Houston, Texas time) on the Business Day before the date of the
proposed Borrowing, in the case of a Canadian Base Rate Advance, by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, which shall give to each Lender prompt notice of such proposed Borrowing, by facsimile, electronic mail or telex. The Borrowings to be made
on the Closing Date shall be made pursuant to the applicable Notices of Borrowing given not later than 10:00 a.m. (Houston, Texas time) on the Closing Date by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, which shall give to each Lender prompt notice of
such proposed Borrowing, by telephone, facsimile, electronic mail (PDF) or telex (confirmed promptly in writing if originally delivered by telephone). Each Notice of Borrowing shall be by facsimile, telex or electronic mail (and if by electronic
mail, via any “.pdf” or other similar electronic means), confirmed promptly by the Borrower with a hard copy (other than with respect to notice sent by facsimile or electronic mail), specifying (i) the requested date of such
Borrowing, (ii) the requested Type and Class of Advances comprising such Borrowing, (iii) the aggregate amount of such Borrowing, (iv) if such Borrowing is to be comprised of Eurocurrency Advances, specifying the requested
Interest Period for each such Advance, (v) if such Borrowing is to be comprised of B/A Advances, the Contract Period for each such Advance; provided that, any Borrowings to be made on the Closing Date shall consist only of Canadian Base Rate
Advance which may, subject to the terms of this Agreement, be thereafter Converted into Eurocurrency Advances or B/A Advances, (vi) the Borrower requesting such Borrowing, and (vii) whether such Borrowing is to be made in Dollars or
Canadian Dollars. In the case of a proposed Borrowing comprised of Eurocurrency Advances, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the applicable interest rate under Section 2.8(b). Each Lender shall, before 11:00 a.m. (Houston,
Texas time) on the date of such Borrowing, make available for the account of its applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent at its address referred to in Section 9.9, or such other location as the Administrative Agent may specify by
notice to the Lenders, in Same Day Funds, such Lender’s Applicable Pro Rata Share of such Borrowing. After the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article 3, the
Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the Borrower at its account with the Administrative Agent or as otherwise directed by the Borrower with written notice to the Administrative Agent. 

(b) Conversions and Continuations. In order to elect to Convert or continue a Revolving Advance or a Term Advance under this paragraph,
the Borrower shall deliver an irrevocable Notice of Continuation or Conversion to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s office (A) no later than 11:00 a.m. (Houston, Texas time) (i) on the Business Day before the date
of the proposed Conversion date in the case of a Conversion to a US Base Rate Advance, and (ii) at least three Business Days in advance of the proposed Conversion or continuation date in the case of a Conversion to, or a continuation of, a
Eurocurrency Advance or a B/A Advance and (B) no later than 10:00 a.m. (Houston, Texas time) on the Business Day before the date of the proposed Conversion date in the case of a Conversion to a Canadian Base Rate Advance. Each such Notice of
Conversion or Continuation shall be in writing or by telephone, telex or facsimile confirmed promptly by the Borrower with a hard copy (other than with respect to notice sent by facsimile), specifying (i) the requested Conversion or
continuation date (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) the amount, Type and Class of the Advance to be Converted or continued, (iii) whether a Conversion or continuation is requested and, if a Conversion, into what Type of Advance,
(iv) in the case of a Conversion to, or a continuation of, a Eurocurrency Advance, the requested Interest Period and (v) in the case of a Conversion to, or a continuation of, a B/A Advance, the requested Contract Period. Promptly after
receipt of a Notice of Continuation or Conversion under this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall provide each Lender with a copy thereof and, in the case of a Conversion to or a continuation of a Eurocurrency Advance, notify each Lender of the
applicable interest rate under Section 2.8(b). The portion of Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing that are Converted to Advances of another Type shall constitute a new Borrowing. 

  
 49 

 (c) Certain Limitations. Notwithstanding anything in paragraphs (a) and (b) above:

 (i) at no time shall there be more than seven Interest Periods applicable to outstanding Eurocurrency Advances nor more
than five Contract Periods applicable to B/A Advances; 
 (ii) no single Borrowing consisting of Eurocurrency Advances may
include Advances in different currencies; 
 (iii) the Borrower may not select Eurocurrency Advances or B/A Advances for any
Borrowing to be made or continued, or Convert any Advance into a Eurocurrency Advance or B/A Advance, in any event, at any time when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; 

(iv) if the Administrative Agent is unable to determine the Eurocurrency Rate for Eurocurrency Advances comprising any
requested Borrowing or the Discount Rate for B/A Advances comprising any requested Borrowing, the right of the Borrower to select Eurocurrency Advances or B/A Advances for such Borrowing or for any subsequent Borrowing denominated in such affected
currency shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and each Advance comprising such Borrowing shall be made as a US Base Rate Advance
or Canadian Base Rate Advance, as applicable; 
 (v) if the Majority Lenders shall, at least one Business Day before the date
of any requested Borrowing, notify the Administrative Agent that (A) the Eurocurrency Rate for Eurocurrency Advances or the Discount Rate for the B/A Advances comprising such Borrowing will not adequately reflect the cost to such Lenders of
making or funding their respective Eurocurrency Advances or B/A Advances, as the case may be, for such Borrowing, or (B) deposits are not being offered to banks in the applicable offshore interbank market for the affected currency for the
applicable amount and Interest Period of such Eurocurrency Advance, then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders and the right of the Borrower to select Eurocurrency Advances in the affected currency or B/A
Advances for such Borrowing or for any subsequent Borrowing shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and each Advance comprising such
Borrowing shall be made as a US Base Rate Advance or Canadian Base Rate Advance, as applicable; 
 (vi) if the Borrower shall
fail to specify a currency for any Advance, then such Eurocurrency Advance or Base Rate Advance, as requested, shall be made in Canadian Dollars; 

(vii) except as expressly permitted in this Agreement, no Advance may be Converted or continued as an Advance in a different
currency, but instead must be prepaid in the original currency of such Advance and reborrowed in such new currency; 
 (viii)
if the Borrower shall fail to select the Type of Advance, such Advance shall be made as a Canadian Base Rate Advance and if the Borrower specifies a Eurocurrency Advance but shall fail to select the duration or continuation of any Interest Period
for any Eurocurrency Advances in accordance with the provisions contained in the definition of Interest Period in Section 1.1 and paragraphs (a) and (b) above, the Administrative Agent will forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Lenders
and such Advances will be made available to the Borrower on the date of such Borrowing as Canadian Base Rate Advances or, if an existing Advance, Convert into Canadian Base Rate Advances; 

  
 50 

 (ix) if the Borrower shall fail to select the duration or continuation of any
Contract Period for any B/A Advance in accordance with the provisions contained in the definition of Contract Period in Section 1.1, paragraphs (a) and (b) above, and Section 2.18, the Administrative Agent will forthwith so notify the
Borrower and the Lenders and such affected B/A Advances will be made available to the Borrower on the date of such Borrowing as Canadian Base Rate Advances or, if such affected B/A Advances are existing Advances, will be automatically Converted into
Canadian Base Rate Advances at the end of the Contract Period then in effect; 
 (x) other than a Borrowing deemed to have
been requested as provided herein, the Borrower may not select US Base Rate Advances for any Borrowing to be made without the consent of each Lender; and 

(xi) the Borrower may not select B/A Advances for any Borrowing to be made without the consent of each Lender. 

(d) Notices Irrevocable. Each Notice of Borrowing and Notice of Continuation or Conversion delivered by the Borrower hereunder,
including its deemed request for Borrowings made under Section 2.2(c) or Section 2.3(c), shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. 

(e) Administrative Agent Reliance. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender before the date of any
Revolving Borrowing or Term Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s Applicable Pro Rata Share of any Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made its Applicable
Pro Rata Share of such Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.4(a) (or, in the case of a Borrowing of B/A Advances, that such Lender has made such share available in accordance with
and at the time required by Section 2.18), and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have
so made its Applicable Pro Rata Share of such Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to immediately repay to the Administrative Agent on demand such corresponding amount, together with interest
on such amount, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable on such day to Advances
comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the lesser of (A) the Overnight Rate for such day and (B) the Maximum Rate. If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount and interest
as provided above, such corresponding amount so repaid shall constitute such Lender’s Advance as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement even though not made on the same day as the other Advances comprising such Borrowing. 

Section 2.5. Prepayments. 

(a) Right to Prepay; Ratable Prepayment. The Borrower shall have no right to prepay any principal amount of any Advance except as
provided in this Section 2.5 and as otherwise provided in this Agreement and all notices given pursuant to this Section 2.5 shall be irrevocable and binding upon the Borrower; provided that, if a notice of prepayment is given in connection
with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.1, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.1. Each payment of any

  
 51 

 
Advance pursuant to this Section 2.5 shall be made in a manner such that all Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing are paid in whole or ratably in part other than Advances owing to
a Defaulting Lender as provided herein. 
 (b) Optional. 

(i) The Borrower may elect to prepay any of the Advances (other than Bankers’ Acceptances or B/A Equivalent Advances,
which may, however, be defeased as provided below) without penalty or premium except as set forth in Section 2.10 and after giving by 11:00 a.m. (Houston, Texas time) (i) in the case of Eurocurrency Advances, at least three Business
Days’ or (ii) in case of Base Rate Advances, one Business Day’s prior written notice to the Administrative Agent stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of such prepayment, which notice shall be in the form of a duly
executed and completed Notice of Optional Payment. If any such notice is given, the Borrower shall prepay Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing in whole, or ratably in part to each relevant Lender, in an aggregate principal amount equal to
the amount specified in such notice, together with accrued interest (other than in respect of a Revolving Borrowing which is a Canadian Base Rate Advance) to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid and amounts, if any, required
to be paid pursuant to Section 2.10 as a result of such prepayment being made on such date; provided that (A) each optional prepayment of Eurocurrency Advances shall be in a minimum amount not less than C$500,000 and in multiple
integrals of C$100,000 in excess thereof, (B) each optional prepayment of Canadian Base Rate Advances shall be in a minimum amount not less than C$500,000 and in multiple integrals of C$50,000 in excess thereof and (C) only if an
AutoBorrow Agreement is not in effect, each optional prepayment of Swing Line Advances shall be in a minimum amount not less than C$100,000 and in multiple integrals of C$50,000 in excess thereof. If an AutoBorrow Agreement is in effect, each
prepayment of Swing Line Advances shall be made as provided in such AutoBorrow Agreement. Any prepayment made pursuant to this clause (b)(i) shall be applied as the Borrower may direct, in their sole discretion and, in the case of any prepayment of
Term Advances, unless otherwise specified by the Borrower, such prepayments shall be applied to the scheduled principal installments thereof in the direct order of maturity until such time as the Term Advances are repaid in full. 

(ii) The Borrower may defease any B/A or B/A Equivalent Advance prior to the expiry of the applicable Contract Period by
depositing with the Administrative Agent an amount that, together with interest accruing on such amount to the end of the Contract Period for such B/A or B/A Equivalent Advance, is sufficient to pay such maturing B/As or B/A Equivalent Advances when
due. The Administrative Agent shall promptly advise the applicable Lenders of any notice given pursuant to this Section 2.5 and of each Lender’s portion of such prepayment. 

(c) Mandatory. 

(i) No later than five Business Days following the delivery of the Financial Statements referred to in Section 5.2(a) following
each December 31, commencing with December 31, 2014, where the Leverage Ratio as of such December 31 (as reflected in the Compliance Certificate delivered in connection with such Financial Statements) is equal to or greater than 2.00 to 1.00,
the Borrower shall prepay the Term Advances (or defease, if necessary, the outstanding principal amount of the B/A Advances) in an amount equal to 50% of the Excess Cash Flow calculated for such fiscal year; provided that, if such Leverage
Ratio is less than 2.00 to 1.00, the Borrower shall not be required to make the prepayment required under this clause (i) 

  
 52 

 
related to such fiscal year; provided further that, Excess Cash Flow calculated for the fiscal year 2014 shall only include the period from July 1, 2014 to December 31, 2014.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the amount of any payment required to be made under this Section 2.5(c)(i) may, at the election of the Borrower, be reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis for (x) any payments made pursuant to
Section 2.5(b) to prepay (or defease, as applicable) any Term Advances and any Revolving Advances (to the extent accompanied by a permanent reduction of the relevant Revolving Commitment) during such fiscal year to the extent not applied to reduce
the payments required under this Section 2.5(c)(i) for any such fiscal year or any preceding fiscal year (including as a reduction of Excess Cash Flow), and (y) at the election of the Borrower and without duplication, any payments made pursuant
to Section 2.5(b) to prepay (or defease, as applicable) any Term Advances and any Revolving Advances (to the extent accompanied by a permanent reduction of the relevant Revolving Commitment) after such December 31 but prior to the date in the
succeeding fiscal year when the Excess Cash Flow payment described in this clause (i) is required to be made to the extent not already applied to reduce the payments required under this Section 2.5(c)(i) (including as a reduction of Excess Cash
Flow); provided that, (i) in any case, with respect to any such optional prepayment of Term Advances, such reduction shall only be permitted to the extent such prepayment was not financed with the proceeds of Debt (other than Revolving
Borrowings), and (ii) such optional prepayment was applied to the scheduled principal installments of the Term Advances in the inverse order of maturity. 

(ii) If any Restricted Entity receives Debt Incurrence Proceeds other than those resulting from Permitted Debt, then not later
than three Business Days following the receipt of such proceeds, the Borrower shall prepay (or defease, as applicable) the Term Advances in an amount equal to 100% of such Debt Incurrence Proceeds. 

(iii) If any Restricted Entity completes an Asset Sale which is not a Permitted Asset Sale, then the Borrower shall, no later
than three Business Days following the completion of such Asset Sale, prepay (or defease, as applicable) the Term Advances in an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds generated from such Asset Sale. 

(iv) If any Restricted Entity completes an Asset Sale which is a Permitted Asset Sale of the type described in clauses (d), (f)
and (o) of Section 6.7, whether in a single transaction or a series of related transactions, and the Net Cash Proceeds thereof exceeds $25,000 individually or $250,000 when aggregated with all Permitted Asset Sales of the type described
above and completed from the date hereof through and including the date of such Permitted Asset Sale, then the Borrower shall, no later than three Business Days following the completion of such Asset Sale, prepay (or defease, as applicable) the Term
Advances in an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds generated from such Asset Sale; provided that, (A) if no Default exists or would arise therefrom, then such proceeds shall not be required to be so applied on such date to the
extent that the Borrower shall have delivered a certificate by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower to the Administrative Agent on or prior to such date stating that such Net Cash Proceeds are reasonably expected to be reinvested in assets of any
Credit Party (or in assets of any Non-Credit Party if such proceeds resulted from a Disposition of assets of a Non-Credit Party) which are useful in the business of such
Credit Party (or Non-Credit Party) within 12 months following the date of such Asset Sale (which officers’ certificate shall set forth the estimates of the proceeds to be so expended); and (B) if all
or any portion of such Net Cash Proceeds are not reinvested within such 12-month period as provided in clause (A) above, then 100% of such unused portion shall be applied on the last day of such period as
a mandatory prepayment (or defeasance, as applicable) of the Term Advances. 

  
 53 

 (v) If any Restricted Entity receives any Extraordinary Receipts (whether from a
single event or related series of events and whether as one payment or a series of payments), then the Borrower shall, no later than five Business Days following the receipt of such Extraordinary Receipts, prepay (or defease, as applicable) the Term
Advances in an amount equal to 100% of the amount of such Extraordinary Receipts; provided that, (A) if no Event of Default exists or would arise therefrom, then such Extraordinary Receipts shall not be required to be so applied on such
date to the extent that the Borrower shall have delivered a certificate by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower to the Administrative Agent on or prior to such date stating that such Extraordinary Receipts are reasonably expected to be reinvested
in fixed, capital or replacement assets of any Credit Party (or such assets of any Non-Credit Party if such proceeds resulted from a Casualty Event of assets of a
Non-Credit Party) or, in the case of business interruption insurance proceeds, expected to be used in the operations of any Credit Party (or in the operations of any
Non-Credit Party if such proceeds resulted from a business interruption of a Non-Credit Party), in any case, within 12 months following the date the Parent or such
Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, received such Extraordinary Receipts (which officers’ certificate shall set forth the estimates of the amounts to be so expended); (B) if all or any portion of such Extraordinary Receipts are not reinvested
or applied within such 12-month period as provided in clause (A) above, then 100% of such unused portion shall be applied on the last day of such period as a mandatory prepayment (or defeasance, as applicable) of the Term Advances; and
(C) if an Event of Default exists and such Extraordinary Receipts are insurance proceeds, the Borrower shall turn such proceeds over to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 5.3(d), which shall satisfy the Borrower’s
obligations under this clause (v) in respect of such proceeds. 
 (vi) If an increase in the aggregate Revolving
Commitments is effected as permitted under Section 2.17, the Borrower shall prepay (or defease, as applicable) any Revolving Advances outstanding on the date such increase is effected to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Revolving
Advances ratable to reflect the revised Revolving Pro Rata Shares of the Revolving Lenders arising from such increase. Any prepayment of Revolving Advances (other than B/A Advances) required to be made by the Borrower under this clause
(vi) shall be deemed to have been made with the proceeds of Revolving Advances made by all the Revolving Lenders in connection with such increase occurring simultaneously with the prepayment. 

(vii) If, on any Computation Date, the Revolving Outstandings exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments then in effect, then
the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Revolving Lenders. Within two Business Days after the Borrower has received notice thereof, the Borrower shall, to the extent of such excess, first prepay to the Swing Line
Lender the outstanding principal amount of the Swing Line Advances, second, prepay (or defease, as applicable) to the Revolving Lenders on a pro rata basis the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Advances and, third, make deposits into the
Cash Collateral Account to provide Cash Collateral in the amount of such excess for the Letter of Credit Exposure. 
 (viii)
if the Borrower reasonably determines in good faith that the repatriation to the Borrower as a distribution or dividend of any amounts required to mandatorily prepay the Term Advances pursuant to Sections 2.5(c)(i), (iv) or (v) above that are
directly attributable to any Excess Cash Flow, Debt Incurrence Proceeds, Net Cash Proceeds or Extraordinary Receipts in respect of a Foreign Subsidiary (other than NCS Canada) would result in a material and adverse Tax liability (including any
foreign withholding Tax) (such amount, a “Restricted Amount”), the amount that the Borrower shall be required to mandatorily prepay pursuant to Sections 2.5(c)(i), (iv) or (v) above, as applicable, shall be reduced by such
Restricted Amount; provided that to the 

  
 54 

 
extent that the repatriation of the Excess Cash Flow, Net Cash Proceeds or Extraordinary Receipts from the relevant Foreign Subsidiary (other than NCS Canada) would no longer have a material and
adverse Tax consequence, an amount equal to the Net Cash Proceeds, Extraordinary or Excess Cash Flow, as applicable, and to the extent available, not previously applied pursuant to this clause (viii), shall be promptly, but in any event within 30
days after such consequence would no longer apply, applied to the repayment of the Term Advances pursuant to Section 2.5(c) as would have been otherwise required above. For purposes of this Section 2.5(c)(viii), any Subsidiary described in clause
(ii) of or the proviso in the definition of “Foreign Subsidiary” shall be disregarded in determining whether such Subsidiary is a Foreign Subsidiary. 

(d) Interest; Costs; Defeasance. Each prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.5 shall be accompanied by accrued interest (other than
as permitted in Section 2.5(b)) on the amount prepaid to the date of such prepayment and amounts, if any, required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.10 as a result of such prepayment being made on such date. To the extent required as a mandatory
prepayment under Section 2.5(c) above, the Borrower shall defease any B/A or B/A Equivalent Advance prior to the expiry of the applicable Contract Period by depositing with the Administrative Agent an amount that, together with interest accruing on
such amount to the end of the Contract Period for such B/A or B/A Equivalent Advance, is sufficient to pay such maturing B/As or B/A Equivalent Advances when due. 

(e) Application of Prepayments. Each mandatory prepayment of an Advance required by Section 2.5(c)(i) through (v) shall be applied
to the scheduled principal installments of the Term Advances pro rata until such time as the Term Advances are repaid in full. Mandatory prepayments of Advances will be applied first to Base Rate Advances, then to Eurocurrency Advances and then to
defease B/A Advances. 
 Section 2.6. Repayment. 

(a) Revolving Advances. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of each Revolving Lender the
aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Advances on the Revolving Maturity Date. 
 (b) Term Advances. The Borrower
shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of each Term Lender the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Advances as follows: 

(i) in quarterly installments each equal to C$4,941,000 (which is the equivalent of 2.50% of C$197,640,000) and due and payable
on the last day of each fiscal quarter ending on or after December 31, 2014 but prior to December 31, 2016, 
 (ii) in
quarterly installments each equal to C$7,411,500 (which is the equivalent of 3.75% of C$197,640,000) and due and payable on the last day of each fiscal quarter ending on or after December 31, 2016 but prior to December 31, 2018, and 

(iii) in quarterly installments each equal to C$9,882,000 (which is the equivalent of 5.00% of C$197,640,000) and due and
payable on the last day of each fiscal quarter ending on or after December 31, 2018, 
 provided that, if a Commitment Increase involving Term
Commitments is effected under Section 2.17, then the remaining quarterly installments set forth above shall be adjusted to reflect the making of additional Term Advances as a result of such Commitment Increase as agreed to by the Borrower, the

  
 55 

 
Administrative Agent, and the Increasing Lender and/or the Additional Lender (as applicable); provided, further that, the quarterly installment amount of Term Advances payable to
any particular Term Lender may not be decreased (other than by operation of the last sentence of Section 2.5(b)(i)) without the consent of such Term Lender. In any event, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of
each Term Lender, all unpaid principal of the Term Advances on the Term Maturity Date. 
 (c) Swing Line Advances. Each Swing Line
Advance shall be paid in full on each Swing Line Payment Date. 
 Section 2.7. Fees. 

(a) Commitment Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a Commitment Fee
equal to the Applicable Margin on the average daily amount by which such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment exceeds the sum of (A) such Revolving Lender’s outstanding Revolving Advances plus (B) such Revolving Lender’s
Revolving Pro Rata Share of the Letter of Credit Exposure, at the rate equal to the Applicable Margin for Commitment Fees for such period. Such Commitment Fee is due quarterly in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30, and December 31 of each
year commencing on September 30, 2014, and on the Revolving Maturity Date. For purposes of this Section 2.7(a) only, outstanding Swing Line Advances shall not reduce the amount of unused Revolving Commitments. 

(b) Fees for Letters of Credit. The Borrower agrees to pay the following: 

(i) To the Administrative Agent for the pro rata benefit of the Revolving Lenders a per annum letter of credit fee for each
Letter of Credit issued hereunder, in the currency of such Letter of Credit, for the period such Letter of Credit is outstanding, in an amount equal to the greater of (A) an amount equal to (1) subject to the following clause (2), the
Applicable Margin for Eurocurrency Advances per annum on the undrawn amount of such Letter of Credit or (2) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Default Rate, and (B) C$600 per Letter of Credit (or, in the case of a
Letter of Credit denominated in Dollars, $600 per Letter of Credit). Such fee shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30, and December 31 of each year, and on the Revolving Maturity Date. 

(ii) To each Issuing Lender, an annual fronting fee for each Letter of Credit, in the currency of such Letter of Credit, equal
to the greater of (A) 0.20% per annum on the face amount of such Letter of Credit and (B) C$600 per annum (or in the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in Dollars, $600 per annum). Such fronting fee shall be due and payable quarterly in
arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30, and December 31 of each year, and on the Revolving Maturity Date. 
 (iii) To
each Issuing Lender such other usual and customary fees associated with any transfers, amendments, drawings, negotiations, issuances or reissuances of any Letters of Credit issued by each Issuing Lender. Such fees shall be due and payable as
requested by the applicable Issuing Lender in accordance with such Issuing Lender’s then current fee policy. 
 The Borrower shall have no right to any
refund of letter of credit fees previously paid by the Borrower, including any refund claimed because any Letter of Credit is canceled prior to its expiration date. 

  
 56 

 (c) Fee Letter. The Borrower agrees to pay the fees to the Wells Fargo Parties as set
forth in the Fee Letter. 
 Section 2.8. Interest. 

(a) Base Rate Advances. Each Base Rate Advance shall bear interest at the Adjusted Base Rate or Canadian Base Rate, as applicable, in
effect from time to time plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Advances for such period. The Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent for the ratable account of each Lender all accrued but unpaid interest on such Lender’s Base Rate
Advances on each March 31, June 30, September 30, and December 31 commencing on September 30, 2014, and on the Revolving Maturity Date or the Term Maturity Date, as applicable. 

(b) Eurocurrency Advances. Each Eurocurrency Advance shall bear interest during its Interest Period equal to at all times the
Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin for Eurocurrency Advances for such period. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of each Lender all accrued but unpaid interest on each
of such Lender’s Eurocurrency Advances on the last day of the Interest Period therefor (provided that for Eurocurrency Advances with Interest Periods of six months or longer, accrued but unpaid interest shall also be due every three months from
the first day of such Interest Period), on the date any Eurocurrency Advance is repaid, and on the Revolving Maturity Date or the Term Maturity Date, as applicable. 

(c) Swing Line Advances. The Swing Line Advances shall bear interest at the Canadian Base Rate in effect from time to time plus
the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Advances or such other per annum rate to be agreed to between the Borrower and the Swing Line Lender. The Borrower shall pay all accrued but unpaid interest on each Swing Line Advance to the Swing Line Lender on
each March 31, June 30, September 30, and December 31 commencing on September 30, 2014, and on the Revolving Maturity Date or such dates as otherwise agreed to between the Swing Line Lender and the Borrower. 

(d) Acceptance Fee on B/A Advances. Subject to the provisions of Sections 9.10 and 9.11, the Advances comprising each B/A Borrowing
shall be subject to an Acceptance Fee, payable by the Borrower on the date of acceptance of the relevant B/A and calculated as set forth in the definition of the term Acceptance Fee in Section 1.1. 

(e) Retroactive Adjustments of Applicable Margin. In the event that any Financial Statement or Compliance Certificate delivered
pursuant to Section 5.2 is shown to be inaccurate (regardless of whether this Agreement or the Commitments are in effect when such inaccuracy is discovered), and such inaccuracy, if corrected, would have led to the application of a higher
Applicable Margin for any period (an “Applicable Period”) than the Applicable Margin applied for such Applicable Period, then (i) the Borrower shall promptly deliver to the Administrative Agent a corrected Compliance
Certificate for such Applicable Period, (ii) the Applicable Margin shall be determined as if the higher Applicable Margin that would have applied were applicable for such Applicable Period (and in any event at the highest Level if the
inaccuracy was the result of dishonesty, fraud or willful misconduct), and (iii) the Borrower shall promptly, without further action by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Lender, pay to the Administrative Agent for the account
of the applicable Lenders or Issuing Lenders, the accrued additional interest or fees owing as a result of such increased Applicable Margin for such Applicable Period. This Section 2.8(e) shall not limit the rights of the Administrative Agent and
Lenders with respect to the Default Rate of interest as set forth in Section 2.8(f) or Article 7. The Borrower’s obligations under this Section 2.8(e) shall survive the termination of the Commitments and the repayment of all other Obligations
hereunder. 

  
 57 

 (f) Default Rate. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary (and in lieu
of the interest rates otherwise applicable thereunder), but subject to the provisions of Sections 9.10 and 9.11 and Section 2.12(e), (i) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under Section 7.1(a) or Section 7.1(g),
all Obligations shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at the Default Rate and (ii) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default (including under Section 7.1(a) or Section 7.1(g)), upon the request of
the Majority Lenders, all Obligations shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at the Default Rate. Interest accrued pursuant to this Section 2.8(f) and all interest accrued but unpaid on or after the Revolving Maturity Date or the
Term Maturity Date, as applicable, shall be due and payable on demand. 
 Section 2.9. Illegality. If any Lender shall notify
the Borrower that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation makes it unlawful, or that any central bank or other Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its applicable
Lending Office to perform its obligations under this Agreement to make, maintain, or fund any Eurocurrency Advances or B/A Advances of such Lender then outstanding hereunder, (a) the Borrower shall, no later than 11:00 a.m. (Houston, Texas,
time) (i) if not prohibited by law, on the last day of the Interest Period for each outstanding Eurocurrency Advance or on the last day of the Contract Period for each outstanding B/A Advance, as applicable, or (ii) if required by such
notice, on the second Business Day following its receipt of such notice, prepay all of the Eurocurrency Advances of such Lender then outstanding or defease all B/A Advances of such Lender then outstanding pursuant to Section 2.18, together with
accrued interest on the principal amount prepaid or defeased to the date of such prepayment or defeasance and amounts, if any, required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.10 as a result of such prepayment being made on such date, (b) such
Lender shall simultaneously make a Base Rate Advance in the applicable currency to the Borrower on such date in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Eurocurrency Advances prepaid or B/A Advances defeased to such Lender, and
(c) the right of the Borrower to select Eurocurrency Advances or B/A Advances from such Lender for any subsequent Borrowing shall be suspended until such Lender shall notify the Borrower that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer
exist (which notice shall be given by such Lender promptly). Each Lender agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policies and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Lending Office if the
making of such designation would avoid the effect of this paragraph and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. 

Section 2.10. Breakage Costs. Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time, the Borrower
shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of: 
 (a)
any continuation, Conversion, payment or prepayment (including any deemed payment or repayment and any reallocated repayment to Non-Defaulting Lenders) of any Advance other than a Base Rate Advance on a day
other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise); 

(b) any failure by the Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make an Advance) to prepay, borrow, continue or Convert
any Advance other than a Base Rate Advance on the date or in the amount notified by the Borrower; 
 (c) any payment by the Borrower of
reimbursement drawings under any Letter of Credit in a currency other than such Letter of Credit’s original currency; or 
 (d) any
assignment of an Eurocurrency Advance on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.14; 

  
 58 

 including any loss of anticipated profits (but excluding any loss of Applicable Margin), any foreign exchange
losses and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Advance, from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained or from the performance of any foreign
exchange contract; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to the defeasance of any B/A Advance as provided in Section 2.5. The Borrower shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection with the
foregoing. For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to the Lenders under this Section 2.10, the requesting Lender shall be deemed to have (i) in the case of Eurocurrency Advances, funded the Eurocurrency Advances made by
it at the Eurocurrency Base Rate used in determining the Eurocurrency Rate for such Advance by a matching deposit or other borrowing (including bankers’ acceptances) in the offshore interbank market for Dollars or Canadian Dollars, as
applicable, for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurocurrency Advance was in fact so funded and (ii) in the case of B/A Advances, made or accepted and purchased such B/A Advance with such Acceptance Fee
calculated for a comparable amount and comparable period, whether or not such B/A Advance was in fact so made or accepted and purchased. Any notice delivered by the Administrative Agent (including on behalf of any Lender providing such notice to the
Administrative Agent) setting forth in reasonable detail any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error.

 Section 2.11. Increased Costs. 

(a) Eurocurrency Advances. If any Change in Law shall: 

(i) impose, modify, or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, assessment, or similar requirement (other than by way of
imposition or increase of reserve requirements included in the Eurocurrency Reserve Percentage) relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities or commitments of, financial institutions generally,
including such Lender (or its applicable Lending Office), including the Commitments of such Lender hereunder; 
 (ii) subject
any Recipient to any Tax (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (e) of the definition of “Excluded Taxes” and (C) Other Connection Taxes) on its Advances, principal of its
Advances, Letters of Credit, Commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or 

(iii) impose on financial institutions generally, including such Lender (or its applicable Lending Office), or on the London
interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or its Notes or any of such extensions of credit or liabilities or commitments; 
 and the
result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender (or its applicable Lending Office) of making, Converting into, continuing, or maintaining any Eurocurrency Advances or accepting and purchasing any B/A Advance (or of maintaining
its obligation to make or accept and purchase any such Advance), or to reduce any sum received or receivable by such Lender (or its applicable Lending Office) under this Agreement or its Notes with respect to any Eurocurrency Advances or any B/A
Advances, then the Borrower shall pay to such Lender within three Business Days after written demand made by such Lender such amount or amounts as such Lender determines in good faith to be necessary to compensate such Lender for such increased cost
or reduction. 

  
 59 

 (b) Capital Adequacy. If, after the Closing Date, any Lender or any Issuing Lender shall
have determined that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or Issuing Lender or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect
of reducing the rate of return on the capital of financial institutions generally, including such Lender or such Issuing Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as a consequence of such Lender’s or such Issuing
Lender’s obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy), then
from time to time within three Business Days after written demand by such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender or such Issuing Lender such additional amount or amounts as such Lender determines in
good faith to be necessary to compensate such Lender or such Issuing Lender for such reduction. 
 (c) Certificates for
Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such Issuing Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in
paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 2.11 and delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may
be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof 
 (d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay
on the part of any Lender or Issuing Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s right to demand such compensation, provided that the
Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section 2.11 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the
case may be, notifies the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the
Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof). 

(e) Mitigation. If any Lender requests compensation under this Section 2.11 then such Lender shall use commercially reasonable
efforts (consistent with its internal policies and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Advances hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices,
branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.11 in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any
unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. 

Section 2.12. Payments and Computations. 

(a) Payments. All payments of principal, interest, and other amounts to be made by the Borrower under this Agreement and other Credit
Documents shall be made to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds, without setoff, deduction, or counterclaim. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein and except with respect to principal of and interest on Advances denominated in Canadian
Dollars and Letter of Credit Obligations for Letters of Credit issued in Canadian Dollars (the payments for which shall be made in Canadian Dollars and in Same Day Funds), all payments by the Borrower hereunder shall be made to the Administrative
Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such

payment is owed in Dollars and in Same Day Funds. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower hereunder with respect to principal and interest on Advances
denominated in Canadian Dollars and Letter of Credit Obligations for Letters of Credit issued in Canadian Dollars shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, in Canadian
Dollars. 
 (b) Payment Procedures. The Borrower shall make each payment under this Agreement and under the Notes not later than
11:00 a.m. (Houston, Texas time) on the day when due in Dollars or Canadian Dollars, as applicable, to the Administrative Agent at the location referred to in the Notes (or such other location as the Administrative Agent shall designate in writing
to the Borrower) in Same Day Funds and, as to payments of principal (other than under Section 2.6), accompanied by a Notice of Optional Payment or Notice of Mandatory Payment, as applicable, from the Borrower, with appropriate insertions. The
Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter, and in any event prior to the close of business on the day any timely payment is made, cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal, interest or fees ratably (other than
amounts payable solely to the Administrative Agent, the specific Issuing Lender or a specific Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement) in accordance with each Lender’s Applicable Pro Rata Share to the Lenders for the account of their
respective applicable Lending Offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such Lender for the account of its applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement. Upon receipt of other amounts due solely to the Administrative Agent, a specific Issuing Lender, the Swing Line Lender, or a specific Lender, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such amounts to the appropriate party to be applied in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
 (c) Computations. All computations of interest for (i) Base Rate Advances
accruing interest based upon the Prime Rate and (ii) Eurocurrency Advances accruing interest based upon the CDOR Rate shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365/366 days and all computations of all other interest
and fees shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day, but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or fees are
payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an amount of interest or fees shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. 

(d) Interest Act (Canada). To the extent the Interest Act (Canada) is applicable, for the purposes of this Agreement, whenever interest
to be paid hereunder is to be calculated on the basis of 360 days or any other period of time that is less than a calendar year, the yearly rate of interest to which the rate determined pursuant to such calculation is equivalent is the rate so
determined multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the same is to be ascertained and divided by 360 or such other number of days in such period, as the case may be. 

(e) Canadian Maximum Rate of Interest. To the extent the Criminal Code (Canada) is applicable, notwithstanding anything contained
herein to the contrary, the Borrower will not be obliged to make any payment of interest or other amounts payable to any Lender hereunder in excess of the amount or rate that would be permitted by applicable law or would result in the receipt by the
Lenders of interest at a criminal rate (as such terms are construed under the Criminal Code (Canada)). If the making of any payment by the Borrower would result in a payment being made that is in excess of such amount or rate, the Lenders will
determine the payment or payments that are to be reduced or refunded, as the case may be, so that such result does not occur. 

  
 61 

 (f) Waiver of Judgment Interest Act (Alberta). To the extent permitted by applicable Legal
Requirement, the provisions of the Judgment Interest Act (Alberta) (if applicable) will not apply to the Credit Documents and are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower. 

(g) Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in
respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Advances or other obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Advances and accrued interest thereon or other such obligations
greater than its Applicable Pro Rata Share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in
the Advances and such other obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal
of and accrued interest on their respective Advances and other amounts owing them; provided that: 
 (i) if any such
participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and 

(ii) the provisions of this paragraph (g) shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by or on behalf of
any Credit Party pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the
assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Advances or participations in Letter of Credit Exposure or Swing Line Advances to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the
provisions of this paragraph shall apply). 
 Each Credit Party consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under
applicable Legal Requirement, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may, subject to Section 7.4, exercise against such Credit Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation
as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Credit Party in the amount of such participation. 
 Section 2.13.
Taxes. 
 (a) Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 2.13, the term “Lender” includes each Issuing Lender
and the term “applicable Legal Requirement” includes FATCA. 
 (b) No Deduction for Certain Taxes. Any and all payments by
or on account of any obligation of any Credit Party under any of the Credit Documents to the Administrative Agent, an Issuing Lender, or a Lender shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any and all present or future
Taxes, except as required by applicable Legal Requirement. If any applicable Legal Requirement requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment, then the applicable Credit Party or Administrative Agent shall be entitled to make
such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Legal Requirement and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the
applicable Credit Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings of Indemnified Taxes applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.13(b)), the
applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made. 

  
 62 

 (c) Other Taxes. The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in
accordance with applicable Legal Requirement, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes. 

(d) Indemnification by the Credit Parties. The Credit Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, within 30 days
after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.13) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or
deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A
certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Recipient (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Recipient, shall be conclusive absent
manifest error; provided that, no Recipient shall be indemnified for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes the demand for which is made to the Borrower or the applicable Credit Party later than one year after the later of (i) the date on
which the relevant Governmental Authority makes written demand upon such Recipient for payment of such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, and (ii) the date on which such Recipient made payment of such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided,
further that, if the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted giving rise to such claims are retroactive, then the one-year period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. If any Credit
Party believes that an Indemnified Tax paid by such Credit Party was not correctly or legally asserted, then at the reasonable request of such Credit Party, the applicable Recipient will use commercially reasonable efforts (consistent with its
internal policies and legal and regulatory restrictions) to cooperate with such Credit Party to obtain a refund of such Indemnified Tax so long as such Recipient could not be subject to any unreimbursed cost or expense or to any liability. 

(e) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand
therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Credit Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Credit
Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.7 relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in
each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Credit Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by
the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to
set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Credit Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this
paragraph (e). 
 (f) Evidence of Tax Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes or Other Taxes by any Credit Party
to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of any receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
 (g) Status of Lenders. (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or
reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Credit Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly
completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the 

  
 63 

 
Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the
Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Legal Requirement or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to
determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation
(other than the documentation set forth in Sections 2.13(g)(ii)(A) and (g)(ii)(B) below) shall not be required if, in the Lender’s reasonable judgment, such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material
unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. 
 (ii) Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, 
 (A) any Lender that is a US Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9
certifying that such Lender is exempt from US federal backup withholding Tax; 
 (B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent
it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and
from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable: 
  

	 	1.	in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Credit Document, executed originals of IRS Form
W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, US federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Credit Document, IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, US federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty; 

 

	 	2.	executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI; 

  

	 	3.	in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit I-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section
881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “US Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN; or 

 

	 	4.	 to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by
IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, a US Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit 

  
 64 

	 	
I-2 or Exhibit I-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable;
provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a US Tax Compliance Certificate
substantially in the form of Exhibit I-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner; 

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

(D) if a payment made to a Recipient under any Credit Document would be subject to US federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA
if such Recipient were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Recipient shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent at the time or times prescribed by Legal Requirement and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable Legal Requirement (including as prescribed by Section
1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to
determine that such Recipient has complied with such Recipient’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments
made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this clause (D), the completion, execution and submission of such documentation by a Foreign Lender shall not be required if in such Lender’s reasonable
judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. 

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such
form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. 
 (h)
Mitigation. Each Lender shall use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policies and legal and regulatory restrictions) to select a jurisdiction for its applicable Lending Office or change the jurisdiction of its applicable Lending
Office, as the case may be, so as to avoid the imposition of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes or to eliminate or reduce the payment of any additional sums under this Section 2.13; provided, that no such selection or change of
jurisdiction for its applicable Lending Office shall be made if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such selection or change would be disadvantageous to such Lender. 

  
 65 

 (i) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion
exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.13 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.13), it shall pay to the
indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity and gross-up payments made under this Section 2.13 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to
such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (i) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant
Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (i), in no event will the indemnified party be required to
pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (i) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the indemnification
payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This paragraph (i) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it
deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person. 
 (j) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this
Section 2.13 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all
obligations under any Credit Document. 
 Section 2.14. Replacement of Lenders. If (a) any Lender requests compensation
under Section 2.11, or if the Borrower is required pursuant to Section 2.13 to make any additional payment to any Lender, (b) any Lender’s obligation to make or continue, or to Convert Base Rate Advances into, Eurocurrency Advances
shall be suspended pursuant to Section 2.4(c)(v) or Section 2.9, (c) any Revolving Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (d) any Term Lender has unfunded Term Commitments and such Term Lender is a Defaulting Lender, or (e) any Lender is a Non-Consenting Lender (any such Lender described in any of the preceding clauses (a) – (e), being a “Subject Lender”), then (i) in the case of a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent
may, upon notice to the Subject Lender and the Borrower, require such Defaulting Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 9.7), all of
its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Credit Documents as a Revolving Lender and, if applicable, a Term Lender to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if
a Lender accepts such assignment) and (ii) in the case of any Subject Lender, the Borrower may, upon notice to the Subject Lender and the Administrative Agent and at the Borrower’s sole cost and expense, require such Subject Lender to
assign and delegate (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 9.7), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Credit Documents to an Eligible
Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which Eligible Assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that, in any event: 

(i) as to assignments required by the Borrower, the Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee
specified in Section 9.7 (unless waived by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion); 
 (ii) such Subject Lender
shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its applicable Advances and funded participations in outstanding Letter 

  
 66 

 
of Credit Obligations, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Credit Documents (including any amounts under Section 2.10)
from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts); 

(iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.11 or Section 2.13,
such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; 
 (iv) such assignment does not
conflict with applicable Legal Requirements; 
 (v) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have agreed to the applicable departure, waiver or amendment of the Credit Documents; and 

(vi) if such Subject Lender is being replaced solely as a result of it being a Defaulting Lender, then such Lender may only be
replaced in its capacity as a Revolving Lender and, if it has any unused Term Commitment, in its capacity as a Term Lender but, in any event, if its Term Commitment is fully funded, then not in its capacity as a Term Lender. 

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the
circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. Solely for purposes of effecting any assignment involving a Defaulting Lender under this Section 2.14 and to the extent permitted under applicable
Legal Requirements, each Lender hereby designates and appoints the Administrative Agent as true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority, for and on behalf of and in the name of
such Lender to execute, acknowledge and deliver the Assignment and Acceptance required hereunder if such Lender is a Defaulting Lender and such Lender shall be bound thereby as fully and effectively as if such Lender had personally executed,
acknowledged and delivered the same. In lieu of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent replacing a Defaulting Lender as provided in this Section 2.14, the Borrower may terminate such Defaulting Lender’s applicable Commitment as provided
in Section 2.1(d). 
 Section 2.15. Defaulting Lenders. 

(a) Defaulting Lender Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if (x) any Revolving
Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or (y) any Term Lender with an unfunded Term Commitment becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal
Requirement: 
 (i) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any
amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Majority Lenders. 

(ii) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the
Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article 7 or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 7.4 shall be
applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent 

  
 67 

 
hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Lenders or the Swing Line Lender hereunder; third, to Cash
Collateralize the Issuing Lenders’ Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.16; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of
any Advance in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to
be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Advances under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the Issuing
Lenders’ future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.16; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the
Lenders, the Issuing Lenders or the Swing Line Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, any Issuing Lender or the Swing Line Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting
Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction
obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent
jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Advances or participations in respect of Letter of Credit Obligations in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate
share, and (y) such Advances were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 3.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Advances of, and
participations in respect of Letter of Credit Obligations owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Advances of, or participations in respect of
Letter of Credit Obligations and Swing Line Advances owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Advances and funded and unfunded participations in Letter of Credit Obligations and Swing Line Advances are held by the Lenders pro rata in
accordance with the Revolving Commitments without giving effect to Section 2.15(a)(iv). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to
post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.15(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. 

(iii) Certain Fees. 

(A) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Commitment Fee for any period (and such fees shall cease to accrue
with respect to such Defaulting Lender) during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender). 

(B) Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive Letter of Credit fees payable under Section 2.7(b)(i) for any period
during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Revolving Pro Rata Share of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.15(a)(ii). 

  
 68 

 (C) With respect to any Letter of Credit fees payable under Section 2.7(b)(i) not
required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (B) above, the Borrower shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting
Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letter of Credit Obligations that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (y) pay to each
Issuing Lender the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such Issuing Lender’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any
such fee. 
 (iv) Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting
Lender’s participation in Letter of Credit Obligations and Swing Line Advances shall be reallocated among the Revolving Lenders which are Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective
Revolving Pro Rata Shares (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment) but only to the extent that (x) the conditions set forth in Section 3.2 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless
the Borrower shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at such time, the Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and (y) such reallocation does not cause the
outstanding principal amount of Revolving Advances of any Non-Defaulting Lender plus such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Pro Rata Share of Letter of Credit
Exposure to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment in effect at such time. No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender
having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such
reallocation. 
 (v) Cash Collateral; Repayment of Swing Line Advances. If the reallocation described in clause
(iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, (x) first, prepay Swing Line Advances in an amount equal to the Swing Line
Lender’s Fronting Exposure and (y) second, Cash Collateralize the Issuing Lenders’ Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.16. 

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Swing Line Lender agree in writing
that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements
with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Advances of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause
the Revolving Advances and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Advances to be held by the Revolving Lenders in accordance with their Revolving Pro Rata Shares (without giving effect to Section 2.15(a)(iv)) and the
Term Advances to be held by the Term Lenders in accordance with their Term Pro Rata Shares, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments
made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute
a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. 

  
 69 

 (c) New Letters of Credit. So long as any Revolving Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no
Issuing Lender shall be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is reasonably satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto. 

Section 2.16. Cash Collateral. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender which is a Revolving Lender, within one
Business Day following the written request of the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lenders or Swing Line Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize the Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting
Lender (determined after giving effect to Section 2.15(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in an amount not less than such Fronting Exposure. 

(a) Grant of Security Interest. The Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby
grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Lenders, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral as security for the Defaulting Lenders’ obligation to fund participations in
respect of Letter of Credit Obligations, to be applied pursuant to clause (b) below. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent and
the Issuing Lenders as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the Fronting Exposure for all Defaulting Lenders, the Borrower will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the
Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender). 

(b) Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this
Section 2.16 or Section 2.15 in respect of Letters of Credit shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of Letter of Credit Obligations (including, as to Cash
Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein. 

(c) Termination of Requirement. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce the Issuing Lenders’
Fronting Exposure shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.16 following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the
applicable Lender), or (ii) the determination by the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lenders that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that, subject to Section 2.15, the Person providing Cash Collateral and the Issuing
Lenders may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations and provided further that to the extent such Cash Collateral was provided by any Credit Party, such Cash Collateral shall
remain subject to the security interest granted pursuant to the Security Agreement. 
 Section 2.17. Increase in Commitments.

 (a) At any time prior to the Business Day immediately preceding the later of the Revolving Maturity Date or the Term Maturity Date, as
applicable, the Borrower may effectuate one or more increases in the aggregate Revolving Commitments and/or Term Commitments or add one or more new term loan facilities hereunder (each such increase or new term loan facility being a
“Commitment Increase”), by designating either one or more of the existing Lenders (each of which, in its sole discretion, may determine whether and to what degree to participate in such Commitment Increase) or one or more other
Eligible Assignees that at the time agree, in the case of any such Eligible Assignee that is an existing 

  
 70 

 
Lender to increase its Revolving Commitment and/or its Term Commitment or provide a new term loan commitment as such Lender shall so select (an “Increasing Lender”) and, in the
case of any other Eligible Assignee that is not an existing Lender (an “Additional Lender”), to become a party to this Agreement as a Lender; provided, however, that: 

(i) each such Commitment Increase shall be equal to at least C$5,000,000; 

(ii) the aggregate amount of all such Commitment Increases shall not exceed C$43,920,000; 

(iii) no Default shall exist immediately prior to and after giving effect to any such Commitment Increase; 

(iv) after giving pro forma effect to the making of any Term Advances in connection with an increase in the Term Commitment, or
any such new additional term loans under a new term loan facility, or any Revolving Advances made on the effective date of any such Commitment Increase involving an increase in the Revolving Commitments, (A) the Borrower shall be in pro forma
compliance with the covenants set forth in Sections 6.16 and 6.17, and (B) the Leverage Ratio shall be no greater than 2.00 to 1.00 for each fiscal quarter ending on or after September 30, 2014; 

(v) no Lender shall be required or otherwise obligated to provide any Commitment Increase or any portion thereof; 

(vi) the scheduled maturity date of any new term loan facility shall be no earlier than the Term Maturity Date and the weighted
average life of such new term loan facility shall be no shorter than the then remaining weighted average life of the Term Facility; 

(vii) the interest rate margins and (subject to clause (vi) above) amortization schedule applicable to any new term loan
facility shall be determined by the Borrower and the Lenders under such new term loan facility; provided that in the event that the interest rate margins for any new term loan facility are higher than the interest rate margins for the Term
Facility, then the interest rate margins for the Term Facility shall be increased to the extent necessary so that such interest rate margins are equal to the interest rate margins for such new term loan facility; provided, further,
that in determining the interest rate margins applicable to such new term loan facility and the Term Facility, (A) original issue discount (“OID”) or upfront fees (which shall be deemed to constitute like amounts of OID, with
OID being equated to interest based on assumed four year life to maturity or, with respect to such new term loan facility, if less, the then remaining life to maturity thereof) payable by the Borrower to the Lenders under the Term Facility or such
new term loan facility in the initial primary syndication thereof shall be included and (B) customary arrangement, structuring, underwriting, amendment and/or commitment fees payable to any lead arranger (or affiliates thereof) in connection
with the Term Facility or to one or more arrangers (or their affiliates) of any such new term loan facility shall be excluded (it being understood that the effects of any and all interest rate floors shall be included in determining the interest
rates under this provision); 
 (viii) except as set forth above, the other terms and documentation in respect of any such
new term loan facility shall be consistent with the Term Facility; and 

  
 71 

 (ix) each such Commitment Increase in the Revolving Facility shall have the same
terms, other than interest rate, commitment fees and upfront fees, as the existing Revolving Facility; provided that in the event that the interest rate margins or commitment fees for any such Commitment Increase are higher than the interest
rate margins or commitment fees for the existing Revolving Facility, then the interest rate margins or commitment fees for the existing Revolving Facility shall be increased to the extent necessary so that such interest rate margins or commitment
fees, as applicable, are equal to the interest rate margins or commitment fees, as applicable, for such Commitment Increase; provided, further, that in determining the interest rate margins applicable to such Commitment Increase and
the existing Revolving Facility, (x) upfront fees payable by the Borrower to the Lenders under such Commitment Increase or the existing Revolving Facility in the initial primary syndication thereof (with such upfront fees being equated to
interest based on assumed four-year life to maturity or, with respect to any such Commitment Increase, if less, the then remaining life to maturity thereof) and the effects of any and all interest rate floors shall be included and (y) customary
arrangement, structuring, underwriting, amendment and/or commitment fees payable to any lead arranger (or affiliates thereof) in connection with the existing Revolving Facility or to one or more arrangers (or their affiliates) of any such Commitment
Increase shall be excluded. 
 The Borrower shall provide prompt notice of such proposed Commitment Increase pursuant to this
Section 2.17 to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders. This Section 2.17 shall not be construed to create any obligation on the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders to advance or to commit
to advance any credit to the Borrower or to arrange for any other Person to advance or to commit to advance any credit to the Borrower. 

(b) The Commitment Increase shall become effective on the date (the “Increase Date”) on or prior to which each of following
conditions shall have been satisfied: (i) the receipt by the Administrative Agent of (A) an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent signed by the Borrower, each Increasing Lender and/or each
Additional Lender, setting forth the Commitments, if any, of each such Increasing Lender and/or Additional Lender and, if applicable, setting forth the agreement of each Additional Lender to become a party to this Agreement and to be bound by all
the terms and provisions hereof binding upon each Lender, if any of the terms of such Commitment Increase differs from the Term Facility or the Revolving Facility, as applicable, (B) an amendment to this Agreement signed by the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent and such Increasing Lenders and Additional Lenders, as applicable, to amend the necessary provisions of this Article 2 to account for the terms of such Commitment Increase, and (C) such evidence of appropriate authorization
on the part of the Borrower with respect to such Commitment Increase and such customary legal opinions as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, (ii) in the case of any Commitment Increase in respect of the Revolving Commitments, the
funding by each Increasing Lender and Additional Lender of the Revolving Advances to be made by each such Lender to effect the reallocations required in clause (c) below, (iii) the funding by each Increasing Lender and Additional Lender of the
Term Advances to be made on the Increase Date, if any, in the amount of such Lender’s increased Term Commitment, (iv) receipt by the Administrative Agent of a certificate of an authorized officer of the Borrower certifying that
(A) both before and after giving effect to such Commitment Increase, no Default has occurred and is continuing, (B) all representations and warranties made by the Borrower in this Agreement are true and correct in all material respects
(except that such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representations and warranties that already are qualified or modified by materiality in the text thereof), unless such representation or warranty relates to an earlier date which
remains true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date (except that such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representations and warranties that already are qualified or modified by materiality in the text
thereof), and (C) the pro 

  
 72 

 
forma compliance with the covenants in Sections 6.16 and 6.17, after giving pro forma effect to the making of any Term Advances in connection with an increase in the Term Commitment, or any such
new additional term loans under a new term loan facility, or any Revolving Advances made on the effective date of any such Commitment Increase involving an increase in the Revolving Commitments, and (v) receipt by the Increasing Lender or
Additional Lender, as applicable, of all such fees as agreed to between such Increasing Lender and /or Additional Lender and the Borrower. 

(c) On any Increased Date on which there is a Commitment Increase in the Revolving Commitments pursuant to Section 2.17, (i) each of the
Revolving Lenders shall assign to each of the Increasing Lenders with regard to such Commitment Increase, and each of such Increasing Lender shall purchase from each of the Revolving Lenders, at the principal amount thereof, such interests in the
Revolving Advances outstanding on such Increased Date as shall be necessary in order that, after giving effect to all such assignments and purchases, such Revolving Advances will be held by existing Revolving Lenders and the Increasing Lenders
ratably in accordance with their Revolving Commitments after giving effect to the addition of such Commitment Increase in the Revolving Commitments, (ii) each Commitment Increase in the Revolving Commitments shall be deemed for all purposes a
Revolving Commitment and each Revolving Advance made thereunder shall be deemed, for all purposes, a Revolving Advance and (iii) each Increasing Lender shall become a Revolving Lender with respect to the Commitment Increase and all matters
relating thereto. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that the minimum borrowing and prepayment requirements in Section 2.4 of this Agreement shall not apply to the transactions effected pursuant to the immediately preceding
sentence. Notwithstanding any provision contained herein to the contrary, from and after the date of such Commitment Increase, all calculations and payments of interest on the Revolving Advances shall take into account the actual Revolving
Commitment of each Revolving Lender and the principal amount outstanding of each Revolving Advance made by such Lender during the relevant period of time. 

(d) On such Increase Date if such Commitment Increase involves an increase in the aggregate Revolving Commitments, each Revolving
Lender’s share of the Letter of Credit Exposure and participations in respect of Swing Line Advances on such date shall automatically be deemed to equal such Lender’s Revolving Pro Rata Share of such Letter of Credit Obligations and
participations in respect of Swing Line Advances (such Revolving Pro Rata Share for such Lender to be determined as of the Increase Date in accordance with its Revolving Commitment on such date as a percentage of the aggregate Revolving Commitments
on such date) without further action by any party. 
 Section 2.18. Bankers’ Acceptances. 

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Borrower may request a Borrowing by presenting drafts for acceptance and, if
applicable, purchase as B/As by the Lenders. 
 (b) No Contract Period with respect to a B/A to be accepted and, if applicable, purchased as
an Advance shall extend beyond the Revolving Maturity Date or the Term Maturity Date, as applicable. All B/A Borrowings shall be denominated in Canadian Dollars. 

(c) To facilitate availment of the B/A Advances, the Borrower hereby appoints each Lender as its attorney to sign and endorse on its behalf,
in handwriting or by facsimile or mechanical signature as and when deemed necessary by such Lender, blank forms of B/As in the form requested by such Lender. The Borrower recognizes and agrees that all B/As signed and/or endorsed on its behalf by a
Lender shall bind the Borrower as fully and effectually as if signed in the handwriting of and duly issued by the proper signing officers of the Borrower. Each Lender is hereby authorized to issue such B/As endorsed in blank in such face amounts as
may be determined by such Lender; provided that the aggregate amount thereof is 

  
 73 

 
equal to the aggregate amount of B/As required to be accepted and purchased by such Lender. No Lender shall be liable for any damage, loss or other claim arising by reason of any loss or improper
use of any such instrument except the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Lender or its officers, employees, agents or representatives as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. Each Lender
shall maintain a record with respect to B/As (i) voided by it for any reason, (ii) accepted and purchased by it hereunder and (iii) canceled at their respective maturities. Each Lender further agrees to retain such records in the
manner and for the statutory periods provided in the various provincial or federal statutes and regulations which apply to such Lender. On request by or on behalf of the Borrower, a Lender shall cancel all forms of B/A which have been pre-signed or pre-endorsed on behalf of the Borrower and which are held by such Lender and are not required to be issued in accordance with the Borrower’s irrevocable
notice. At the discretion of a Lender, B/As to be accepted by such Lender may be issued in the form of “Depository Bills” within the meaning of the Depository Bills and Notes Act (Canada) and deposited with the Canadian Depository for
Securities Limited (“CDS”) and may be made payable to “CDS & Co.” or in such other name as may be acceptable to CDS and thereafter dealt with in accordance with the rules and procedures of CDS, consistent with the
terms of this Agreement and the Depository Bills and Notes Act (Canada). All Depository Bills so issued shall be governed by the provisions of this Section 2.18. 

(d) Drafts of the Borrower to be accepted as B/As hereunder shall be signed as set forth in this Section 2.18. Notwithstanding that any
Person whose signature appears on any B/A may no longer be an authorized signatory for any of the Lenders or the Borrower at the date of issuance of a B/A, such signature shall nevertheless be valid and sufficient for all purposes as if such
authority had remained in force at the time of such issuance and any such B/A so signed shall be binding on the Borrower. 
 (e) Promptly
following receipt of a Notice of Borrowing, continuation or Conversion of B/As, the Administrative Agent shall so advise the Lenders and shall advise each Lender of the aggregate face amount of the B/As to be accepted by it and the applicable
Contract Period (which shall be identical for all Lenders). The aggregate face amount of the B/As to be accepted by a Lender shall be in an integral multiple of C$100,000 and such face amount shall be in each Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such
Borrowing, and each such Borrowing shall be no less than C$500,000; provided, that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, increase or reduce any Lender’s portion of such B/A to the nearest C$100,000. 

(f) The Borrower may specify in a Notice of Borrowing or Conversion or continuation pursuant to Section 2.4(a) or Section 2.4(b),
respectively, that it desires that any B/As requested by such notice be purchased by the Lenders, in which case the Lenders shall purchase, or arrange the purchase of, each B/A from the Borrower at the Discount Rate for such Lender applicable to
such B/A accepted by it and provide to the Administrative Agent the Discount Proceeds for the account of such Borrower. The Acceptance Fee payable by the Borrower to a Lender under Section 2.8(d) in respect of each B/A accepted by such Lender shall
be set off against the Discount Proceeds payable by such Lender under this Section 2.18. 
 (g) Each Lender may at any time and from
time to time hold, sell, rediscount or otherwise dispose of any or all B/As accepted and purchased by it. 
 (h) If a Lender notifies the
Administrative Agent in writing that it is unable to accept Bankers’ Acceptances, such Lender will, instead of accepting and, if applicable, purchasing Bankers’ Acceptances, make an advance (a “B/A Equivalent Advance”) to
the applicable Borrower in the amount and for the same term as the draft that such Lender would otherwise have been required to accept and purchase hereunder. Each such Lender will provide to the Administrative Agent the Discount Proceeds of such
B/A Equivalent Advance for the account of the Borrower. Each such B/A Equivalent Advance will 

  
 74 

 
bear interest at the same rate that would result if such Lender had accepted (and been paid an Acceptance Fee) and purchased (on a discounted basis at the Discount Rate) a Bankers’
Acceptance for the relevant Contract Period (it being the intention of the parties that each such B/A Equivalent Advance shall have the same economic consequences for the Lenders and the Borrower as the Bankers’ Acceptance which such B/A
Equivalent Advance replaces). All such interest shall be paid in advance on the date such B/A Equivalent Advance is made, and will be deducted from the principal amount of such B/A Equivalent Advance in the same manner in which the Discount Proceeds
of a Bankers’ Acceptance would be deducted from the face amount of the Bankers’ Acceptance. 
 (i) The Borrower waives presentment
for payment and any other defense to payment of any amounts due to a Lender in respect of a B/A accepted and purchased by it pursuant to this Agreement which might exist solely by reason of such B/A being held, at the maturity thereof, by such
Lender in its own right and the Borrower agrees not to claim any days of grace if such Lender as holder sues the Borrower on the B/A for payment of the amount payable by the Borrower thereunder. On the last day of the Contract Period of a B/A, or
such earlier date as may be required or permitted pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower shall either pay the Lender that has accepted and purchased such B/A the full face amount of such B/A (subject to Section 2.18(j) below and
Section 2.5(b)) or provide for a continuation as contemplated by Section 2.4(b), and after such payment, the Borrower shall have no further liability in respect of such B/A and such Lender shall be entitled to all benefits of, and be responsible for
all payments due to third parties under, such B/A. 
 (j) Except as required by any Lender upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, no
B/A Advance may be repaid by the Borrower prior to the expiry date of the Contract Period applicable to such B/A Advance; provided, however, that any B/A or B/A Equivalent Advance may be defeased as provided in Section 2.5(b)(ii) and shall be
defeased as required in Section 2.5(c) and (d).

Section 3.3. Determinations under Sections 3.1 and 3.2. For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in

 ARTICLE 4 

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 

Each Credit Party jointly and severally represents and warrants as follows: 

Section 4.1. Organization. Each Restricted Entity is duly and validly organized and existing and in good standing under the laws
of its jurisdiction of incorporation or formation. Each Restricted Entity is authorized to do business and is in good standing in all jurisdictions in which such qualifications or authorizations are necessary except where the failure to be so

 Section 4.2. Authorization. The execution, delivery, and performance by each Credit Party of each Credit Document to which
such Credit Party is a party (a) are within such Credit Party’s corporate, limited liability company or partnership powers, as applicable, (b) have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate, limited liability company or

by this Agreement, and (f) do not require any authorization or approval or other action by, or any notice or filing with, any Governmental Authority other than (i) those that have been obtained and (ii) filings necessary to perfect
Liens created pursuant to the Credit Documents. At the time of the making of any Advance or the issuance, increase, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit, the Borrowings thereunder and the use of the proceeds thereof are within the
Borrower’s corporate or limited liability company powers, have been duly authorized by all necessary action and do not contravene (x) the Borrower’s bylaws or any other organizational document, or (y) any Legal Requirement or any
contractual restriction binding on or affecting the Borrower, will not result in or require the creation or imposition of any Lien prohibited by this Agreement, and do not require any authorization or approval or other action by, or any notice or
filing with, any Governmental Authority other than (i) those that have been obtained or provided and (ii) filings necessary to perfect Liens created pursuant to the Credit Documents. 

Section 4.3. Enforceability. The Credit Documents have each been duly executed and delivered by each Credit Party that is a party
thereto and each Credit Document constitutes the legal, valid, and binding obligation of each Credit Party that is a party thereto enforceable against such Credit Party in accordance with its terms, except as limited by applicable Debtor Relief Laws
at the time in effect affecting the rights of creditors generally and by general principles of equity whether applied by a court of law or equity. 

Section 4.4. Financial Condition. 

(a) The Credit Parties have delivered to the Administrative Agent the financial statements required under Section 3.1(i), and such financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP (except as otherwise expressly noted therein) and present fairly in all material respects the consolidated financial condition of the Persons covered thereby as of the respective dates thereof
and the results of their operations and cash flows for the periods then ended. As of the date of the aforementioned financial statements, there were no material contingent obligations, liabilities for taxes, unusual forward or long-term commitments,
or unrealized or anticipated losses of the applicable Persons required to be disclosed in accordance with GAAP, except as disclosed therein and adequate reserves for such items have been made in accordance with GAAP. 

(b) Since the Closing Date, after giving effect to the Transactions, no event or condition has occurred that could reasonably be expected to
result in a Material Adverse Change. 

  
 79 

 Section 4.5. Ownership and Liens; Real Property. Each Restricted Entity (a) has

information and projections and information of a general economic nature and general industry information about any Credit Party, prepared by or on behalf of each Credit Party and furnished to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders for purposes of
or in connection with this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby does not, when furnished and taken as a whole, contain any material misstatement of fact or omit to state any material fact necessary
to make the statements therein not materially misleading. All projections, estimates, budgets, and pro forma financial information furnished by each Credit Party (or on behalf of such Credit Party), were prepared in good faith based on assumptions
believed to be reasonable at the time such projections, estimates, and pro forma financial information were furnished, it being recognized by the Administrative Agent and each Lender that such projections, estimates, budgets, and pro forma financial
information are not to be viewed as facts and are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies many of which are beyond the control of the Parent or its Subsidiaries, that no assurances can be given that any particular financial
projections will be realized, that actual results may vary materially from the projections furnished 
 Section 4.7. Litigation.
There are no actions, suits, or proceedings pending or, to any Credit Party’s knowledge, threatened in writing against any Restricted Entity, at law, in equity, or by or before any Governmental Authority, which could reasonably be expected to
result in a Material Adverse Change. Additionally, except as disclosed in writing to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, there is no pending or, to the knowledge of any Responsible Officer of any Credit Party, any action or proceeding
instituted or threatened in writing against any Restricted Entity which seeks to adjudicate any Restricted Entity as bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking liquidation, winding up, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, protection, relief, or
composition of it or its debts under any Debtor Relief Laws, or seeking the entry of an order for relief or the appointment of a receiver, trustee or other similar official for it or for any substantial part of its Property. 

Section 4.8. Compliance with Agreements. 

(a) No Restricted Entity is in default under or with respect to any contract, agreement, lease or any other types of agreement or instrument
to which any Restricted Entity is a party and which could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change. 
 (b) No Default
has occurred and is continuing. 

  
 80 

 Section 4.9. Pension Plans. (a) Except for matters that could not reasonably be
expected to result in a Material Adverse Change, all Plans and Multiemployer Plans are in compliance with all applicable provisions of ERISA, (b) no Termination Event has occurred with respect to any Plan that would result in an Event of
Default under Section 7.1(i), and, except for matters that could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change, each Plan has complied with and been administered in accordance with applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code,
(c) no “accumulated funding deficiency” (as defined in Section 302 of ERISA) has occurred, and for plan years after December 31, 2007, no unpaid minimum required contribution exists, and there has been no excise tax imposed
under Section 4971 of the Code, in each case, except as could not reasonably be expected to result in liability exceeding $1,000,000, (d) the present value of all benefits vested under each Plan (based on the assumptions used to fund such Plan)
did not, as of the last annual valuation date applicable thereto, exceed the value of the assets of such Plan allocable to such vested benefits in an amount that could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change, (e) no
Restricted Entity nor any member of the Controlled Group has had a complete or partial withdrawal from any Multiemployer Plan for which there is any unsatisfied withdrawal liability that could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Change or an Event of Default under Section 7.1(j), and (f) no Restricted Entity nor any member of the Controlled Group has incurred any liability as a result of a Multiemployer Plan being in reorganization or insolvent that could reasonably be
expected to result in a Material Adverse Change. Based upon GAAP existing as of the Closing Date and current factual circumstances as of the Closing Date, no Restricted Entity has any reason to believe that the annual cost during the term of this
Agreement to any Restricted Entity for post-retirement benefits to be provided to the current and former employees of any Restricted Entity under Plans that are welfare benefit plans (as defined in Section 3(1) of ERISA) could, in the
aggregate, reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change. 
 Section 4.10. Environmental Condition. 

(a) Permits, Etc. Each Restricted Entity (i) has obtained all material Environmental Permits necessary for the ownership and
operation of its Property and the conduct of its businesses; (ii) has at all times been (or any noncompliance prior to the Closing Date has been cured) and is now in material compliance with all terms and conditions of such Environmental
Permits and with all other material requirements of applicable Environmental Laws; (iii) has not received written notice of any material violation or alleged material violation of any Environmental Law or Environmental Permit which remains
outstanding; and (iv) is not subject to any actual or contingent Environmental Claim which could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change. 

(b) Certain Liabilities. To the Credit Parties’ actual knowledge none of the present or previously owned or operated Property of
any Restricted Entity, wherever located, (i) has been placed on or proposed to be placed on the National Priorities List, the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation Liability Information System list (unless since deemed to need
“no further action”), or their state or local analogs, or has been otherwise investigated, designated, listed, or identified as a potential site for removal, remediation, cleanup, closure, restoration, reclamation, or other response
activity under any Environmental Laws, except with respect to any of the foregoing to the extent that such actions could not reasonably be expected to result in any Restricted Entity or Lending Party incurring liability in excess of $1,000,000; (ii)
is subject to a Lien, arising under or in connection with any Environmental Laws, that attaches to any revenues or to any Property owned or operated by any Restricted Entity, wherever located, which could reasonably be expected to result in a
Material Adverse Change; or (iii) has been the site of any Release of Hazardous Substances or Hazardous Wastes from present or past operations which has caused at the site or at any third-party site any
condition that has resulted in or could reasonably be expected to result in the need for Response that could result in a Material Adverse Change. 

  
 81 

 (c) Certain Actions. Without limiting the foregoing, (i) all necessary notices have
been properly filed, and no further action is required under current applicable Environmental Law as to each Response or other environmental restoration or remedial project undertaken by any Credit Party, any Restricted Entity or, to any Credit
Party’s knowledge, any Restricted Entity’s former Subsidiaries on any of their presently or formerly owned or operated Property, except with respect to any of the foregoing to the extent that the failure to take such action could not
reasonably be expected to result in any Restricted Entity or any Lending Party incurring liability in excess of $1,000,000 and (ii) the present and, to the Credit Parties’ best knowledge, future liability, if any, of any Restricted Entity
which could reasonably be expected to arise in connection with requirements under Environmental Laws will not result in a Material Adverse Change.

Governmental Authorities, and all taxes (which are material in amount) due and payable have been timely paid prior to the date on which any fine, penalty, interest, late charge or loss may be added thereto for
non-payment thereof except where contested in good faith and by appropriate proceeding. Proper and accurate amounts have been withheld by each Restricted Entity (including withholdings from employee wages and
salaries relating to Canadian Benefit Plans contributions) and all other members of the Tax Group from their employees for all periods to comply in all material respects with the tax, social security and unemployment withholding provisions of
applicable federal, state, local and foreign law, except where contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings and for which adequate reserves have been established in compliance with GAAP. 

Section 4.14. Permits, Licenses, etc. Each Restricted Entity possesses all permits, licenses, patents, patent rights or licenses,
trademarks, trademark rights, trade names rights, and copyrights which are material to the conduct of its business. Each Restricted Entity manages and operates its business in accordance with all applicable Legal Requirements except where the
failure to so manage or operate could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change; provided that this Section 4.14 does not apply with respect to Environmental Permits.

filing of financing statements sufficient when filed to perfect the Lien created by the Security Documents. When such financing statements are filed in the offices noted therein, the Administrative Agent will have a valid and perfected security

such Mortgage as a valid first priority Lien on the Property described therein in favor of Administrative Agent, free of all Liens other than the Permitted Liens, and otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, which policy of title
insurance shall be issued by a nationally recognized title insurance company reflecting a coverage amount at least equal to the fair market value (as reasonably determined by the Borrower and approved by the Administrative Agent in its sole
discretion) of such real property; it being understood that (x) such mortgagee policy title insurance shall have been issued at the Borrower’s expense by a title insurance company reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent,

appointing certain of its (or another Credit Party’s) employees to serve as the custodian under a Custodial Agreement, pursuant to which such employees agree to act as agents for and on behalf of the Administrative Agent as the secured party)
and (ii) with respect to any Canadian Certificated Equipment (other than such equipment that is encumbered by a purchase money Lien or subject to a capital lease permitted under Section 6.1 and such equipment that is Disposed of as

priority, 

  
 89 

 
fixed charge on such Canadian Certificated Equipment. Each Credit Party, for itself and on behalf of its Restricted Subsidiaries, hereby acknowledges and agrees that (A) on the Closing Date,
the certificates of title for certain US Certificated Equipment of the Credit Parties name Wells Fargo as the holder of first priority Lien, (B) on the Closing Date the PPSA filings against NCS Canada expressly list certain Canadian
Certificated Equipment as being covered thereby with identifying information, and (C) such noted certificates of title as to US Certificated Equipment shall continue to reflect Wells Fargo as the secured party and such PPSA filings shall

Section 5.7. Deposit Accounts. From and after the 60th day after the Closing Date (or such longer period as the Administrative
Agent may agree to in its sole discretion), but subject to the last sentence of this Section 5.7, each Credit Party shall, and shall cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Credit Party to, (a) maintain their principal
operating, collection and disbursement accounts and all other deposit accounts with a Lender, and (b) if requested by the Administrative Agent using its reasonable discretion, maintain any deposit accounts not held with the Administrative Agent

workers’ compensation, 401(k) or other employee benefit accounts, taxes or funds on deposit for the benefit of third parties not restricted by this Agreement or (ii) petty cash in an aggregate amount not to exceed $500,000. In the event
that any Person with whom a Credit Party maintains the accounts as required under this Section 5.7 ceases to be a Lender, such Credit Party shall close such accounts and, if necessary, open other accounts with a Lender and take such other
actions as may be necessary to be otherwise in compliance with the requirements of this Section 5.7 within 90 days (or such longer period as the Administrative Agent may agree to in its sole discretion) after such Person ceased to be a Lender.

 Section 5.8. Records; Inspection. Each Credit Party shall, and shall cause each of its respective Restricted Subsidiaries to,
maintain proper, complete and consistent books of record with respect to such Person’s operations, affairs, and financial condition. From time to time upon reasonable prior notice, each Credit Party shall, and shall cause each of its respective
Restricted Subsidiaries to, permit the Administrative Agent (or any Lender only if accompanying the Administrative Agent), at such reasonable times and intervals and to a reasonable extent and under the reasonable guidance of officers of or
employees delegated by officers of the Restricted Entities, to, subject to any applicable confidentiality considerations, examine and copy the books and records of the Restricted Entities, to visit and inspect the Property of the Restricted
Entities, and to discuss the business operations and Property of the Restricted Entities with the officers and directors thereof; provided that, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Restricted Entities shall bear the costs
of only one such visit and inspection per fiscal year. 
 Section 5.9. Maintenance of Property. Each Credit Party shall, and
shall cause each of its respective Restricted Subsidiaries to, maintain their owned, leased, or operated Property in good condition and repair, except for (a) normal wear and tear, (b) casualty which could not have been prevented with
prudent operation and maintenance of such Property, and (c) condemnation; and shall abstain from, and cause each of its Restricted Entities to abstain from, knowingly or willfully permitting the commission of waste or other injury, destruction,

 Section 5.10. Further Assurances. Each Credit Party shall cure, or cause to be cured,
promptly any defects in the execution and delivery of the Credit Documents. Each Credit Party hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to file any financing statements to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirement in order to perfect or
maintain the perfection of any security interest granted under any of the Credit Documents. Each Credit Party at its expense will, and will cause each Restricted Subsidiary that is a Credit Party to, promptly execute and deliver to the
Administrative Agent upon reasonable request by the Administrative Agent all such other documents, agreements and instruments to comply with or accomplish the covenants and agreements of any Credit Party or Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be,
in the Credit Documents (to the extent related to collateral), or to further evidence and more fully describe the collateral intended as security for the Secured Obligations, or to correct any omissions in the Security Documents, or to state more
fully the security obligations set out herein or in any of the Security Documents, or to perfect, protect or preserve any Liens created pursuant to any of the Security Documents, or to make any recordings, to file any notices or obtain any consents,
all as may be necessary or appropriate in connection therewith or to enable the Administrative Agent to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies with respect to any Collateral. 

Section 5.11. Designations with Respect to Subsidiaries. 

(a) Unless designated in writing to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section, any Person that becomes a Subsidiary of any Restricted
Entity after the Closing Date, other than a Subsidiary of a Person designated in writing to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section, shall be classified as a Restricted Subsidiary. 

(b) The Parent may designate from time to time and at any time any Subsidiary acquired or created after the Closing Date as an Unrestricted
Subsidiary if (i) immediately before and after such designation, no Default or Event of Default exists, (ii) immediately after giving effect to such designation on a pro forma basis, the Restricted Entities would have been in compliance
with all of the covenants contained in this Agreement, including, without limitation, Sections 6.16 and 6.17 as of the end of the most recent fiscal quarter, (iii) no Subsidiary may be designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary if it is a
“restricted subsidiary” for purposes of any indenture, credit agreement or similar agreement that contains the concept of “restricted” and “unrestricted” subsidiaries, and (iv) the Parent has delivered the
certificate and the Financial Statements required under clause (d) below. 
 (c) The Parent may designate from time to time and at any
time an Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary if (i) immediately before and after such designation, no Default or Event of Default exists, (ii) immediately after giving effect to such designation on a pro forma basis, the
Restricted Entities would have been in compliance with all of the covenants contained in this Agreement, including, without limitation, Sections 6.16 and 6.17 as of the end of the most recent fiscal quarter and (iii) the Parent has delivered
the certificate required under clause (d) below. 
 (d) With respect to each designation of a Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary
or a Restricted Subsidiary, the Parent shall deliver to the Administrative Agent (i) a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Parent stating the effective date of such designation and stating that the conditions required under this
Section 5.11 and, if such designation is of a Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the conditions required under the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary” have been satisfied. Such certificate shall be accompanied by a schedule
setting forth in reasonable detail the calculations demonstrating compliance with such conditions, where appropriate and (ii) upon the reasonable request of the Administrative Agent, updated Financial Statements giving effect to such
designation for such periods and with such detail as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent; 

  
 91 

 (e) All Subsidiaries of an Unrestricted Subsidiary shall be, upon their creation or acquisition,
as the case may be, also Unrestricted Subsidiaries. The Borrower will not permit any Unrestricted Subsidiary to hold any Equity Interests in, or any Debt of, any Restricted Subsidiary other than as permitted under this Agreement. 

(f) The designation of any Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary shall constitute an Investment in such Unrestricted Subsidiary and the
Subsidiaries of such Unrestricted Subsidiary at the date of designation in an amount equal to the fair market value of the Borrower’s or applicable Credit Party’s investment therein. The designation of any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a
Restricted Subsidiary shall constitute the incurrence at the time of designation of any Debt or Liens of such Subsidiary existing at such time. 

(g) The Parent may not designate any Restricted Subsidiary existing on the Closing Date to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary. For the avoidance of
doubt, neither the Borrower nor NCS Canada shall be an Unrestricted Subsidiary. 
 (h) If, at any time, any Unrestricted Subsidiary would
fail to meet the requirements of clause (a) of the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary”, it will thereafter cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary for purposes of this Agreement and any Debt and Liens of such Subsidiary will be
deemed to be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Parent as of such date and, if such Debt and/or Liens are not permitted to be incurred as of such date under Section 6.1 and/or Section 6.2, hereof, as applicable, the Parent will be
in default of such covenant. 
 Section 5.12. Use of Proceeds; Use of Letters of Credit. Each Credit Party shall, and shall
cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to: (a) use the proceeds of the Revolving Advances, the Swing Line Advances or the Letters of Credit, or any Term Advances made after the Closing Date solely for (i) working capital purposes of any
Restricted Entity or (ii) other general corporate purposes of any Restricted Entity, including payment of OID and upfront fees to any Lender, Permitted Acquisitions, Permitted Investments, Capital Expenditures that are permitted hereunder and
Restricted Payments that are permitted hereunder; and (b) use the proceeds of the Term Advances or Revolving Advances, as applicable, made on the Closing Date to (i) refinance in full the outstanding Debt of the Credit Parties under the
Existing Credit Agreement on the Closing Date, (ii) declare and pay the Specified Equity Distribution and (iii) pay fees, commissions and expenses in connection with each of the foregoing. No Credit Party shall, and shall not permit any of
its respective Subsidiaries to, directly or, to its knowledge, indirectly, use any part of the proceeds of Advances or Letters of Credit or lend, contribute or otherwise make available such Advance or Letter of Credit or the proceeds of any Advance
or Letter of Credit to any Person, (a) for any purpose which violates, or is inconsistent with, Regulations T, U, or X, (b) to fund any activities or business of or with any Person, or in any country or territory, that, at the time of such
funding, is itself, or whose government is itself, the subject of Sanctions, except to the extent licensed or otherwise approved by OFAC, the U.S. Department of State and all other relevant Sanctions authorities or (c) in any other manner that
would result in a violation of Sanctions by any Person (including any Person participating in the Advances, whether as underwriter, advisor, investor, or otherwise). 

Section 5.13. Permits, Licenses, etc. Each Credit Party shall, and shall cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, possess and
maintain all licenses, patents, patent rights or licenses, trademarks, trademark rights, trade names and copyrights except to the extent that the failure to maintain or possess the foregoing could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Change.

 ARTICLE 8 

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT 

Section 8.1. Appointment, Powers, and Immunities. 

(a) Appointment and Authority. Each of the Lenders and each of the Issuing Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints Wells Fargo to act on
its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Credit Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms
hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article 8 are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, and neither the Borrower nor
any Affiliate thereof shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions (other than with respect to this Section 8.1(a) and Sections 8.6, 8.7 and 8.9). 

(b) Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity
as a Lender as any other Lender and as an Issuing Lender as any other Issuing Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender,” “Lenders,” and “Issuing Lender,”
shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money
to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for, make investments in, and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative
Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders. Wells Fargo (and any successor acting as Administrative Agent) and its Affiliates may accept fees and other consideration from the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or
Affiliates for services in connection with this Agreement or otherwise without having to account for the same to the Lenders or the Issuing Lenders. 

(c) Exculpatory Provisions. The Administrative Agent (which term as used in this clause (c) and in Section 8.5 and the first
sentence of Section 8.6 shall include its Related Parties) shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative
Agent: 
 (i) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and
is continuing; 
 (ii) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except
discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Credit Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in 

  
 111 

 
writing by the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Credit Documents), provided that the
Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Credit Document or applicable law; and 

(iii) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall
not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any Affiliate thereof that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. 

The Administrative Agent shall not be liable to the other Lending Parties for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or
at the request of the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 7.2, 7.3
and 10.3) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of or
notice of the occurrence of any Default unless and until written notice describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, a Lender or an Issuing Lender and specifying such notice as a “Notice of Default”. In the
event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice of the occurrence of a Default, the Administrative Agent shall (subject to Section 9.3) take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall reasonably be directed
by the Majority Lenders; provided that, unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action,
with respect to such Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interest of the Secured Parties. 
 The Administrative Agent shall not
be responsible for, or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into, (i) any recital, statement, warranty or representation (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document, (ii) the
contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth
herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the value, validity, enforceability, effectiveness, enforceability, sufficiency or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any other agreement, instrument or document,
(v) the inspection of, or to inspect, the Property (including the books and records) of any Restricted Entity or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates, (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article 3 or elsewhere
herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent, or (vii) any litigation or collection proceedings (or to initiate or conduct any such litigation or proceedings) under any Credit
Document unless requested by the Majority Lenders in writing and it receives indemnification satisfactory to it from the Lenders. 

Section 8.2. Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any
liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document, writing or other communication (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to
be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and
shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Advance, Conversion of any Advance or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the
satisfaction of a Lender or an Issuing Lender, the 

  
 112 

 
Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or such Issuing Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such
Lender or such Issuing Lender prior to the making of such Advance, Conversion of such Advance or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent
accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. 

Section 8.3. Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and
powers hereunder or under any other Credit Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such
sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article 8 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of
the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. 
 Section 8.4. Indemnification. 

(a) THE LENDERS SEVERALLY AGREE TO INDEMNIFY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH AFFILIATE THEREOF AND THEIR RESPECTIVE DIRECTORS, OFFICERS,
EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS (TO THE EXTENT NOT REIMBURSED BY THE BORROWER), RATABLY ACCORDING TO THE RESPECTIVE PRINCIPAL AMOUNTS OF THE ADVANCES THEN HELD BY EACH OF THEM (OR IF NO PRINCIPAL OF THE ADVANCES IS AT THE TIME OUTSTANDING, RATABLY ACCORDING

AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT (IN ALL CASES, WHETHER OR NOT CAUSED BY OR ARISING, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, OUT OF THE COMPARATIVE, CONTRIBUTORY OR SOLE NEGLIGENCE OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT), AND INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ENVIRONMENTAL
LIABILITIES, PROVIDED THAT NO LENDER SHALL BE LIABLE FOR ANY PORTION OF SUCH LIABILITIES, OBLIGATIONS, LOSSES, DAMAGES, PENALTIES, ACTIONS, JUDGMENTS, SUITS, COSTS, EXPENSES, OR DISBURSEMENTS FOUND IN A FINAL,
NON-APPEALABLE JUDGMENT BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION TO HAVE RESULTED FROM SUCH INDEMNIFIED PARTY’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT. WITHOUT LIMITATION OF THE FOREGOING, EACH LENDER AGREES
TO REIMBURSE THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT PROMPTLY UPON DEMAND FOR ITS RATABLE SHARE (DETERMINED AS SET FORTH ABOVE IN THIS PARAGRAPH) OF ANY OUT-OF-POCKET EXPENSES (INCLUDING COUNSEL FEES) 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 OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT, TO THE EXTENT THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT IS NOT REIMBURSED FOR SUCH BY THE BORROWER. 

  
 113 

 (b) THE REVOLVING LENDERS SEVERALLY AGREE TO INDEMNIFY EACH ISSUING LENDER AND EACH AFFILIATE
THEREOF AND THEIR RESPECTIVE RELATED PARTIES (TO THE EXTENT NOT REIMBURSED BY THE BORROWER), RATABLY ACCORDING TO THE RESPECTIVE PRINCIPAL AMOUNTS OF THE REVOLVING ADVANCES THEN HELD BY EACH OF THEM (OR IF NO PRINCIPAL OF THE REVOLVING ADVANCES IS
AT THE TIME OUTSTANDING, RATABLY ACCORDING TO THE RESPECTIVE AMOUNTS OF THE REVOLVING COMMITMENTS THEN HELD BY EACH OF THEM, OR, IF NO SUCH PRINCIPAL AMOUNTS ARE THEN OUTSTANDING AND NO REVOLVING COMMITMENTS ARE THEN EXISTING, RATABLY ACCORDING TO
THE REVOLVING COMMITMENTS HELD BY EACH OF THEM IMMEDIATELY PRIOR TO THE TERMINATION OR EXPIRATION THEREOF), FROM AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL LIABILITIES, OBLIGATIONS, LOSSES, DAMAGES, PENALTIES, ACTIONS, JUDGMENTS, SUITS, COSTS, EXPENSES, OR
DISBURSEMENTS OF ANY KIND OR NATURE WHATSOEVER WHICH MAY BE IMPOSED ON, INCURRED BY, OR ASSERTED AGAINST SUCH ISSUING LENDER OR ANY OF ITS RELATED PARTIES IN ANY WAY RELATING TO OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT OR ANY
ACTION TAKEN OR OMITTED BY SUCH ISSUING LENDER OR ANY RELATED PARTY THEREOF UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT (IN ALL CASES, WHETHER OR NOT CAUSED BY OR ARISING, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, OUT OF THE COMPARATIVE, CONTRIBUTORY OR SOLE
NEGLIGENCE OF SUCH ISSUING LENDER), AND INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ENVIRONMENTAL LIABILITIES, PROVIDED THAT NO REVOLVING LENDER SHALL BE LIABLE FOR ANY PORTION OF SUCH LIABILITIES, OBLIGATIONS, LOSSES, DAMAGES, PENALTIES, ACTIONS, JUDGMENTS,
SUITS, COSTS, EXPENSES, OR DISBURSEMENTS FOUND IN A FINAL, NON-APPEALABLE JUDGMENT BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION TO HAVE RESULTED FROM SUCH INDEMNIFIED PARTY’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL
MISCONDUCT. WITHOUT LIMITATION OF THE FOREGOING, EACH REVOLVING LENDER AGREES TO REIMBURSE EACH ISSUING LENDER PROMPTLY UPON DEMAND FOR ITS RATABLE SHARE (DETERMINED AS SET FORTH ABOVE IN THIS PARAGRAPH) OF ANY
OUT-OF-POCKET EXPENSES (INCLUDING COUNSEL FEES) INCURRED BY SUCH ISSUING LENDER 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 OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT, TO THE EXTENT THAT SUCH ISSUING LENDER IS NOT REIMBURSED FOR SUCH BY THE BORROWER. 

Section 8.5. Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender and each
Issuing Lender agrees that it has, independently and without reliance on the Administrative Agent (which term as used in this Section 8.5 shall include its Related Parties) or any other Lender or any other Issuing Lender, and based on such
documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis of the Borrower, the other Credit Parties and the Subsidiaries and decision to enter into this Agreement and that it will, independently and without reliance upon
the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any other Issuing Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own analysis and decisions in taking or not taking action under the
Credit Documents. Except for notices, reports, and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders or the Issuing Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder and for other information in the Administrative
Agent’s possession which has been requested by a Lender and for which such Lender pays the Administrative Agent’s expenses in connection therewith, the 

  
 114 

 
Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender or any Issuing Lender with any credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition, or
business of any Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates that may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates. 

Section 8.6. Resignation of Administrative Agent, Issuing Lender or Swing Line Lender. 

(a) The Administrative Agent and each Issuing Lender may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon
receipt of any such notice of resignation, (i) the Majority Lenders shall have the right, with the prior written consent of the Borrower (which consent is not required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to appoint, as applicable, a successor Administrative Agent or a successor Issuing Lender, which shall be a Lender but may not be a Defaulting Lender. If no such successor Administrative Agent or
Issuing Lender shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as may be agreed by the Majority
Lenders and, if no Event of Default then exists, the Borrower) (the “Resignation Closing Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent or the retiring Issuing Lender, as applicable, may on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing
Lenders, appoint a successor agent or issuing lender meeting the qualifications set forth above. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, if the retiring Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person
has accepted such appointment, such resignation by the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Lender shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Closing Date. 

(b) If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Majority
Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirement, by notice in writing to the Borrower and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and, in consultation with the Borrower, appoint a successor (which such successor
shall be acceptable to the Borrower absent an Event of Default and, in any case, may not be a Disqualified Institution or Defaulting Lender). If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders and shall have accepted such
appointment within 30 days after such notice of removal is given (or such earlier day as may be agreed by the Majority Lenders and, if no Event of Default then exists, the Borrower) (the “Removal Closing Date”), if the Majority
Lenders shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Closing Date. 

(c) With effect from the Resignation Closing Date or the Removal Closing Date (as applicable), (i) the retiring or removed Administrative
Agent or Issuing Lender, as applicable, shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Credit Documents (except that (y) in the case of any Collateral held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders
or the Issuing Lenders under any of the Credit Documents, the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such Collateral until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed and (z) the retiring Issuing Lender
shall remain the Issuing Lender with respect to any Letters of Credit outstanding on the effective date of its resignation and the provisions affecting the Issuing Lenders with respect to such Letters of Credit shall inure to the benefit of the
retiring Issuing Lender until the termination of all such Letters of Credit), and (ii) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the retiring or removed Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender, as
applicable, shall instead be made by or to each applicable class of Lenders, until such time as the Majority Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender as provided for above in this Section 8.6. Upon the acceptance of a
successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the 

  
 115 

 
retiring or removed Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender, as applicable, and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender, as applicable, shall be discharged from all of its
duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Credit Documents, other than those that expressly survive the termination hereof. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender, as applicable, shall be the
same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s or Issuing Lender’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Credit
Documents, the provisions of this Article 8, and Sections 2.2(g), 10.1, and 10.2 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent and Issuing Lender, its sub agents and their
respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender, as applicable, was acting as Administrative Agent or Issuing Lender. 

(d) The Swing Line Lender may resign at any time by giving 30 days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower. After the
resignation of the Swing Line Lender hereunder, the retiring Swing Line Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of the Swing Line Lender under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents with
respect to Swing Line Advances made by it prior to such resignation. Upon such notice of resignation, the Borrower shall have the right to designate any other Lender as the Swing Line Lender with the consent of such Lender so long as operational
matters related to the funding of Advances have been adequately addressed to the reasonable satisfaction of such new Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent (if such new Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent are not the same Person).

 Section 8.7. Collateral Matters. 

(a) The Administrative Agent is authorized on behalf of the Secured Parties, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from
such Secured Parties, from time to time, to take any actions with respect to any Collateral or Security Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain the Liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to the Security Documents. The
Administrative Agent is further authorized (but not obligated) on behalf of the Secured Parties, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from the Secured Parties, from time to time, to take any action in exigent circumstances as
may be reasonably necessary to preserve any rights or privileges of the Secured Parties under the Credit Documents or applicable Legal Requirements. By accepting the benefit of the Liens granted pursuant to the Security Documents, each Secured Party
hereby agrees to the terms of this paragraph (a). 
 (b) The Lenders hereby, and any other Secured Party by accepting the benefit of the
Liens granted pursuant to the Security Documents, irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to (and at the written request of the Borrower the Administrative Agent shall) (i) release any Lien granted to or held by the Administrative Agent
upon any Collateral (A) upon the occurrence of the Termination Date; (B) constituting property sold or to be sold or Disposed of as part of or in connection with any Disposition permitted under this Agreement or any other Credit Document;
(C) constituting property in which no Credit Party owned an interest at the time the Lien was granted or at any time thereafter; or (D) constituting property leased to any Credit Party under a lease which has expired or has been terminated
in a transaction permitted under this Agreement or is about to expire and which has not been, and is not intended by such Credit Party to be, renewed or extended; and (ii) release a Guarantor from its obligations under a Guaranty and any other
applicable Credit Document if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted under this Agreement or upon the occurrence of the Termination Date. Upon the request of the Administrative Agent at any time, the Secured
Parties will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 8.7. 

  
 116 

 (c) Notwithstanding anything contained in any of the Credit Documents to the contrary, the Credit
Parties, the Administrative Agent, and each Secured Party hereby agree that no Secured Party other than the Administrative Agent shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce the Guaranties, it being
understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under the Guaranty and under the Security Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms
hereof and the other Credit Documents. By accepting the benefit of the Liens granted pursuant to the Security Documents, each Secured Party not party hereto hereby agrees to the terms of this paragraph (c). 

Section 8.8. No Other Duties, Etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the joint lead arrangers, bookrunner
or any other agent named on the cover page to this Agreement (other than the Administrative Agent) shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as
the Administrative Agent, a Lender, Swing Line Lender or an Issuing Lender. 
 Section 8.9. Secured Hedging Agreements and Secured
Cash Management Agreements. No Banking Services Provider or Swap Counterparty that obtains the benefits of Section 7.6 or any Collateral by virtue of the provisions hereof or of any Security Document shall have any right to notice of any
action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Credit Document or otherwise in respect of the Collateral (including the release or impairment of any Collateral) other than in its capacity as a Lender, an Issuing
Lender, Swing Line Lender or Administrative Agent, and, in such case, only to the extent expressly provided in the Credit Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be
required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Banking Services Obligations and Hedging Arrangements unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice of such Banking Services
Obligations and Hedging Arrangements, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Banking Services Provider or Swap Counterparty, as the case may be. 

ARTICLE 9

or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by any Issuing Lender to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such
Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged release of Hazardous Substance on or from any real property, or any Environmental Claim related in any way to any Credit Party (except to the extent the circumstance resulting in such or claims first
occurs or first comes into existence after such real property has been transferred to the Lenders or their successors or permitted assigns as a result of a foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure or similar transfer in connection with the exercise
of remedies), or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrower or any
other Credit Party, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that no Indemnitee will have any right to indemnification under this Section 9.2(a) for (x) any liabilities, damages, claims, costs, penalties and
expenses to the extent resulting from (A) such Indemnitee’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct or (B) any disputes solely among Indemnitees and not arising out of or in connection with (1) the Administrative Agent,
the Left Lead Arranger, any other arranger, the Swing Line Lender or any Issuing Lender’s respective capacity or in fulfilling its role as an administrative agent, arranger, swing line lender or issuing lender, or any similar role under the
Facilities or (2) any act or omission of the Borrower, Parent, any Permitted Holder, or any of the foregoings’ respective Subsidiaries, or (y) any actual and direct damages incurred by any Credit Party resulting from a material breach
by such Indemnitee of any non-funding obligation under the Credit Documents or a material breach of a 

  
 118 

 
funding obligation under the Credit Documents by such Indemnitee, in each case under the foregoing clause (x) and (y), as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if it is found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction in any such action, proceeding
or investigation that any loss, claim, damage or liability of an Indemnitee has resulted from either (A) the gross negligence, bad faith, willful misconduct or such material breach of such Indemnitee or (B) any dispute solely among
Indemnitees and not arising out of or in connection with (1) an Indemnitee’s respective capacity or in fulfilling its role as an administrative agent, issuing lender, swing line lender or arranger or any similar role hereunder or under the
Facilities or (2) any act or omission of the Borrower, Parent, any Permitted Holder, or any of the foregoings’ respective Subsidiaries, then such Indemnitee will refund or return such portion of the amounts paid by the Borrower that is
directly attributable to the act or omission of such Indemnitee which is the subject of such finding. The legal fees and expenses covered by the foregoing indemnity obligations shall be limited to (x) other than as provided in clause
(y) below, the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, disbursements and other charges of (i) one law firm acting as counsel for all affected Indemnitees, taken as a whole, (ii) if
reasonably necessary, a single local law firm acting as counsel for all affected Indemnitees taken as a whole in each relevant jurisdiction, and (iii) in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, one additional law firm acting as
counsel in each relevant jurisdiction for each group of affected Indemnitees that are aligned as to such conflict of interest, and (y) as to liabilities, damages, claims, costs and expenses arising in connection with the enforcement of the
Credit Documents or protection of rights thereunder, the documented fees, disbursements and other charges of (i) one law firm acting as counsel for all affected indemnified persons related to the Administrative Agent, taken as a whole,
(ii) one law firm acting as counsel for all affected Indemnitees related to the Lenders, taken as a whole, (iii) if reasonably necessary, a single local law firm acting as counsel for all affected Indemnitees taken as a whole in each
relevant jurisdiction, and (iv) in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, one additional law firm acting as counsel in each relevant jurisdiction for each group of affected Indemnitees that are aligned as to such conflict of
interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 9.2(a) shall not apply to (1) any Indemnified Taxes that are specifically addressed in Section 2.13, which shall be governed exclusively by Section 2.13 or (2) Excluded
Taxes, but this Section 9.2(a) shall apply to any Taxes (other than Indemnified Taxes or Excluded Taxes) which represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim. No Credit Party shall, nor shall it permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, without the prior written consent of each Indemnitee affected thereby, settle any threatened or pending claim or action that would give rise to the right of any Indemnitee to claim indemnification hereunder unless such settlement
(A) includes a full and unconditional release of all liabilities arising out of such claim or action against such Indemnitee and (B) does not include any statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on
behalf of such Indemnitee. 
 (b) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal
Requirement, no Credit Party shall assert, agrees not to assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages)
arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Advance or Letter of Credit or the use of the
proceeds thereof. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirement, no Indemnitee shall assert, agrees not to assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Credit Party, any Permitted Holder or any of their respective Related
Parties, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any agreement
or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Advance or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided that nothing contained in this sentence shall limit any Credit Party’s
indemnification 

  
 119 

 
obligations to the extent set forth in Section 9.2(a) above to the extent such special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages are included in any third party claim in connection with which
such Indemnitee is otherwise entitled to indemnification hereunder. No Indemnitee or any other party hereto shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by any Person (other than such Indemnitee or such other party hereto) of any information
or other materials distributed to such Persons through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Credit Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, other
than for direct or actual damages resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of, or material breach of its obligations under the Credit Documents by, such Indemnitee or such other party hereto, in each case as determined by a final
nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. 
 (c) Survival. Without prejudice to the survival of any other
agreement of the Credit Parties hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Credit Parties contained in this Section 9.2 shall survive the Termination Date and any termination of this Agreement. 

(d) Payments. All amounts due under Section 9.2(a) of indemnified amounts incurred, asserted, or awarded shall be due and payable
within 30 days of written demand therefor accompanied by supporting documentation. 
 (e) Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent
that the Borrower for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under Section 9.1 or 9.2 to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), any Issuing Lender or any
Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), such Issuing Lender or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s
pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the
case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or any Issuing Lender in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for
the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or any Issuing Lender in connection with such capacity. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Lenders hereunder, the agreements and
obligations of the Lenders contained in this Section 9.2(e) shall survive the Termination Date and any termination of this Agreement. 

Section 9.3. Waivers and Amendments. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, the Notes, or any other Credit
Document (other than the Fee Letter or any AutoBorrow Agreement), nor consent to any departure by the Borrower or any Guarantor therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Majority Lenders and the
Borrower, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided that: 

(a) no amendment, waiver, or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Borrower, the Majority Lenders, and each of the Lenders
directly and adversely affected thereby, do any of the following: (i) postpone or extend the scheduled maturity dates or times for payment of amounts owing to a Lender (but excluding any waivers of the application of the Default Rate) and, it
being understood that any change in the definition of any ratio used in the calculation of the rate of interest or fees (or any component definition thereof) shall not constitute a reduction in the rate of interest or fees for purposes of this
Section 9.3), (ii) reduce the amount of principal or fees owing to such Lender in its capacity as a Term Lender, (iii) reduce the principal, interest or fees owing to such Revolving Lender and interest owing to such Term Lender (but
excluding any waivers of the application of the Default Rate) or (iv) reduce any other amounts payable hereunder or under any Credit Document to any such Lender and not covered under the foregoing clauses (ii) or (iii), provided that, in
the case of clause (iii) above, the consent of the Administrative Agent shall also be required; 

  
 120 

 (b) no amendment, waiver, or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by all the Lenders and
the Borrower, do any of the following: (i) waive any of the conditions specified in Section 3.1, (ii) amend Section 2.12(g), Section 7.6, this Section 9.3(b) or any other provision in any Credit Document which expressly requires the
consent of, or action or waiver by, all of the Lenders, (iii) release any Guarantor from its obligation under any Guaranty or, except as specifically provided in the Credit Documents and as a result of transactions permitted by the terms of
this Agreement, release all or a material portion of the Collateral, in each case, except as permitted under Section 8.7(b) or (iv) amend the definitions of “Majority Lenders”; 

(c) an amendment to this Agreement solely to amend the necessary provisions of Article 2 to effect and account for a Commitment Increase
effected pursuant to Section 2.17 may be entered into so long as such amendment is in writing and signed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the applicable Increasing Lenders and Additional Lenders; provided that, the quarterly
installment amount of Term Advances payable to any particular Term Lender may not be decreased without the consent of such Term Lender; 

(d) no Commitment of a Lender may be increased or extended without such Lender’s written consent; 

(e) no amendment, waiver, or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent in addition to the Lenders required above
to take such action, affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Credit Document; 
 (f) no
amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Issuing Lenders in addition to the Lenders required above to take such action, affect the rights or duties of the Issuing Lenders under this Agreement or any other Credit
Document; and 
 (g) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Swing Line Lender in addition to the Lenders
required above to take such action, affect the rights or duties of the Swing Line Lender under this Agreement or any other Credit Document. 
 For the
avoidance of doubt, no Lender or any Affiliate of a Lender shall have any voting rights under this Agreement or any Credit Document as a result of the existence of obligations owed to it under Hedging Arrangements or Banking Services Obligations.

 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.3, (a) the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may (but are not obligated
to), without the input or consent of any other Lender, effect amendments to correct any jointly identified obvious error or any error or omission of a technical nature, in each case, in any provision of the Credit Documents and (b) guarantees,
collateral security documents and related documents executed by the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with this Agreement may be in a form reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
may (but are not obligated to) amend, supplement or waive any provision thereof without the consent of any Lender if such amendment, supplement or waiver is delivered in order to (x) comply with local law or advice of local counsel,
(y) cure ambiguities, omissions, mistakes or defects as determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower or (z) cause such guarantee, collateral security document or other document to be not inconsistent or not in conflict with this
Agreement and the other Credit Documents as determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower; 

  
 121 

 
provided that, the inclusion in such other Credit Document of terms and provisions, rights or remedies in favor of a Lending Party and not addressed in this Agreement shall not be deemed to be in
conflict or inconsistent with this Agreement. 
 Section 9.4. Severability. In case one or more provisions of this Agreement or
the other Credit Documents shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable Legal Requirement, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein or therein shall not be affected or
impaired thereby. 
 Section 9.5. Survival of Representations and Obligations. All representations and warranties contained in
this Agreement or made in writing by or on behalf of the Credit Parties in connection herewith shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, the making of the Advances or the issuance of any Letters of
Credit and any investigation made by or on behalf of the Lenders, none of which investigations shall diminish any Lender’s right to rely on such representations and warranties; provided that, all such representations and warranties shall
terminate on the Termination Date. All obligations of the Borrower or any other Credit Party provided for in Sections 2.8(e), 2.10, 2.11, 2.13, 9.1 and 9.2 and all of the obligations of the Lenders in Sections 8.5, 9.2(a), (b), and (e), 9.8 or
9.12 shall survive any termination of this Agreement and repayment in full of the Obligations; provided that, the Lenders obligations under Section 9.8 shall automatically terminate two years following the date on which this Agreement has been
terminated. 
 Section 9.6. Binding Effect. Subject to the terms of Section 3.1, this Agreement shall become effective when
it shall have been executed by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and when the Administrative Agent shall have, as to each Lender, either received a counterpart hereof executed by such Lender or been notified by such Lender that such Lender
has executed it and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, and each Lender and their respective permitted successors and assigns, except that neither the Borrower nor any other Credit
Party shall have the right to assign its rights or delegate its duties under this Agreement or any other Credit Document or any interest in this Agreement or any other Credit Document without the prior written consent of each Lender, except as
otherwise permitted by Section 6.6. 
 Section 9.7. Lender Assignments and Participations. 

(a) Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties
hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section 9.7 (and any other attempted assignment or
transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby,
Participants to the extent provided in paragraph (d) of this Section 9.7 and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or
claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 
 (b) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible
Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Advances at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

 (i) Minimum Amounts. 

(A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitments and/or the Advances
at the time owing to it or contemporaneous assignments to related Approved Funds that equal at least the amount specified in paragraph (b)(i)(B) or paragraph (b)(i)(C) of this Section 9.7 in the aggregate or in the case of an assignment to a
Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; 

  
 122 

 (B) in any case not described in paragraph (b)(i)(A) of this Section 9.7,
the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitment (which for this purpose includes Advances outstanding thereunder) or, if the Revolving Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Revolving Advances of the assigning
Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Acceptance, as
of the Trade Date) shall not be less than C$3,000,000 (or in the case of an assignment of Revolving Advances denominated in Dollars, shall not be less than $3,000,000) unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has
occurred and is then continuing, the Borrower otherwise consent (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); and 

(C) in any case not described in paragraph (b)(i)(A) of this Section 9.7, the aggregate amount of the Term Commitment
(which for this purpose includes Advances outstanding thereunder and under Commitment Increases pursuant to Section 2.17) or, if the Term Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Term Advances of the assigning
Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Acceptance, as
of such Trade Date) shall not be less than C$1,000,000 unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consent (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or
delayed). 
 (ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate
part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the applicable Class of Advances and/or the Commitments assigned, and no Lender shall be permitted to assign all or any portion of its rights
and obligations among separate Facilities on a non-pro rata basis. 
 (iii)
Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by paragraphs (b)(i)(B) or (b)(i)(C) of this Section 9.7 and, in addition: 

(A) the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment, and (y) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such
assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 10 days after having received written notice thereof; 

  
 123 

 (B) the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments to any Person that is not a Lender; and 
 (C) the consent of the
Issuing Lenders and Swing Line Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment by any Revolving Lender. 

(iv) Assignment and Acceptance. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an
Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of C$3,500; provided that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The
assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. 
 (v) No
Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made to (A) any Credit Party or any of the Credit Parties’ Affiliates or Subsidiaries, (B) a natural Person or (C) a Defaulting Lender. 

(vi) Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender
hereunder, but without duplication of any requirements under Section 2.14 or Section 2.15, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment
shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other
compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Advances previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee
and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender, the Swing Line Lender and each other Lender hereunder (and
interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Advances and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Advances in accordance with its Applicable Pro Rata Share. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable Legal Requirement without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such
interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs. 
 Subject to acceptance and recording
thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section 9.7, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent
of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be
released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall
continue to be entitled to the benefits of and subject to its obligations under Sections 2.10, 2.11, 2.13, 9.1. 9.2, 9.8 and 9.12 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment and shall continue to
be subject to its obligations 

  
 124 

 
under Section 2.13(e) and (i) for events and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the
affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender; and provided further that, the assigning Lender’s
obligations under Section 9.8 shall automatically terminate two years following the date of such assignment. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be
treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (d) of this Section 9.7. 

(c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as the non-fiduciary
agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in the United States a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and
principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Advances owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and the Borrower,
the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the
Borrower and any Lender (but solely as to its own interest), at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. The Borrower hereby agrees that the Administrative Agent acting as its agent solely for the purpose set forth
above in this clause (c), shall not subject the Administrative Agent to any fiduciary or other implied duties, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower. 

(d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell
participations to any Person (other than a natural Person or any Credit Party, any Credit Party’s Affiliate or Subsidiary) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this
Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and/or the Advances owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to
the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such
Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 8.4 with respect to any payments made by such Lender to its Participant(s). Any agreement or
instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided
that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that requires the approval of all affected Lenders in accordance with the terms of
Section 9.3 that affects such Participant. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.10, 2.11 and 2.13 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under
Section 2.13(g) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section); provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of
Section 2.14 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.11 or 2.13, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender
would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a participation
agrees, at the Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.14 with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by Legal Requirement, each
Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 7.4 

  
 125 

 
as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.12(g) and Section 8.7(c) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall,
acting solely for this purpose as the non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of
each Participant’s interest in the Advances or other obligations under the Credit Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant
Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Credit Document) to any Person except to the extent that
such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries
in the Participant Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding
any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. The Borrower hereby agrees that each Lender acting as its
agent solely for the purpose set forth above in this clause (d), shall not subject such Lender to any fiduciary or other implied duties, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower. 

(e) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this
Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or
substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 
 (f) Information. Any Lender may furnish any information
concerning the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries in the possession of such Lender from time to time to permitted assignees and Participants (including prospective permitted assignees (other than any Disqualified Institution) and Participants),
subject, however, to the provisions of Section 9.8. 
 (g) Disqualified Institutions, Etc. Notwithstanding anything contained
herein, any assignment made to any Person in violation of Section 9.7(b) to a Disqualified Institution without the consent of the Borrower, in each case, shall be void ab initio. In the event of such an assignment in violation of
Section 9.7(b), the Borrower shall be entitled to pursue any remedy available to it (whether at law or in equity, including specific performance to unwind such an assignment or participation) against the assignor Lender or such Disqualified
Institution. 
 Section 9.8. Confidentiality. Each Lending Party agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Specified
Information (as defined below) received by such Lending Party; provided that nothing herein shall prevent any Lending Party from disclosing any such information (a) subject to the final proviso of this paragraph, to any other Lending
Party or any Affiliate of any Lending Party (other than any Disqualified Institution), or any officer, director, employee, agent, or advisor of any Lending Party or Affiliate of any Lending Party (other than any Disqualified Institution) for
purposes of administering, negotiating, considering, processing, implementing, syndicating, assigning, or evaluating the credit facilities provided herein and the transactions contemplated hereby (it being understood that the Persons to whom such
disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Specified Information and instructed to keep such Specified Information confidential and such Lending Party shall be responsible for such Affiliate’s compliance with this
Section 9.8), (b) to the extent required by any Legal Requirement (in which case such Lending Party shall, except with respect to any audit or examination conducted by bank accountants or any governmental bank regulatory authority exercising
examination or regulatory authority, promptly notify the Borrower, in advance, to the extent practicably 

  
 126 

 
and lawfully permitted to do so), (c) to the extent required by order of any court or administrative agency (in which case such Lending Party shall, except with respect to any audit or
examination conducted by bank accountants or any governmental bank regulatory authority exercising examination or regulatory authority, promptly notify the Borrower, in advance, to the extent practicably and lawfully permitted to do so), (d) to the
extent required to be disclosed by reason of any request or demand of any regulatory agency or authority having jurisdiction over such Lending Party (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance
Commissioners) (in which case such Lending Party shall, except with respect to any audit or examination conducted by bank accountants or any governmental bank regulatory authority exercising examination or regulatory authority, promptly notify the
Borrower, in advance, to the extent practicably and lawfully permitted to do so), (e) to the extent necessary in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy under this Agreement or any other Credit Document, (f) in connection with any
litigation relating to this Agreement or any other Credit Document to which such Lending Party is a party, including for purposes of establishing a “due diligence” defense, (g) to the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in
connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers or other market identifiers with respect to the Facilities and (h) subject to the final proviso of this paragraph, to any actual or proposed Participant, Swap Counterparty or
permitted assignee (which permitted assignee does not include any Disqualified Institution unless otherwise consented to by the Borrower) subject to the acknowledgment and acceptance by such proposed Participant, Swap Counterparty or assignee that
such information is being disseminated on a confidential basis (on substantially the terms set forth in this paragraph or as is otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Borrower and the assigning Lender, including as agreed in any confidential
information memorandum or other marketing materials) in accordance with customary market standards for dissemination of such type of information. “Specified Information” means all information concerning the Parent or any of its
Subsidiaries that has been made available to the Lending Parties by, or on behalf of, the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (excluding (i) any such information that is available to such Lending Party on a
non-confidential basis and not from a source which, to such Lending Party’s actual knowledge, has violated a duty of confidentiality to the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries as to such information, and
(ii) any information that is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of disclosure by any other Lending Party or any of its Affiliates or Related Parties prohibited by this Agreement). NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO
THE CONTRARY CONTAINED HEREIN, nothing in this Agreement shall (i) restrict any Lending Party from providing information to any banking or other regulatory or governmental authorities having jurisdiction over such Lending Party,
including the Federal Reserve Board and its supervisory staff; (ii) require or permit any Lending Party to disclose to any Credit Party or any Affiliate thereof that any information will be or was provided to the Federal Reserve
Board or any of its supervisory staff; or (iii) require or permit any Lending Party to inform any Credit Party or any Affiliate thereof of a current or upcoming Federal Reserve Board examination or any nonpublic Federal Reserve
Board supervisory initiative or action. 
 Section 9.9. Notices, Etc. 

(a) Notices Generally. Except in the case of notices and other communications expressly permitted to be given by telephone (and except
as provided in paragraph (b) below), all notices and other communications provided for herein shall be in writing and shall be delivered by hand or overnight courier service, mailed by certified or registered mail or sent by facsimile or
electronic mail (including via any “.pdf” or other similar electronic means) as follows: (i) if to the Borrower or any Credit Party, the Administrative Agent, an Issuing Lender or the Swing Line Lender, at the applicable address,
e-mail address or facsimile numbers as set forth on Schedule II, and (ii) if to a Lender, to it at its address, e-mail address or facsimile number as set forth in its Administrative Questionnaire. Notices sent by hand or overnight courier
service, or mailed by certified or registered mail, shall be deemed to have been given 

  
 127 

 
when received; notices sent by facsimile shall be deemed to have been given when sent (except that, if not given during normal business hours for the recipient, shall be deemed to have been given
at the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient); notices sent by electronic mail to the Administrative Agent or to any Credit Party shall be deemed to have been given upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgment from
the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement). Notices delivered through electronic communications to the extent provided in paragraph
(b) below, shall be effective as provided in said paragraph (b). 
 (b) Electronic Communications. 

(i) The Credit Parties and the Lenders agree that the Administrative Agent may make any material delivered by any Credit Party
to the Administrative Agent, as well as any amendments, waivers, consents, and other written information, documents, instruments and other materials relating to the Parent, any of its Subsidiaries, or any other materials or matters relating to this
Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby (collectively, the “Communications”) available to the Lenders by posting such notices on an electronic delivery system (which may be provided by the Administrative Agent, an
Affiliate of the Administrative Agent, or any Person that is not an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent), such as Syndtrak, or a substantially similar electronic system (the “Platform”). Each Credit Party acknowledges that
(i) the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure and that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution, (ii) the Platform is provided “as is” and “as
available” and (iii) none of the Administrative Agent nor any of its Affiliates warrants the accuracy, completeness, timeliness, sufficiency, or sequencing of the Communications posted on the Platform. The Administrative Agent and its
Affiliates expressly disclaim with respect to the Platform any liability for errors in transmission, incorrect or incomplete downloading, delays in posting or delivery, or problems accessing the Communications posted on the Platform and any
liability for any losses, costs, expenses or liabilities that may be suffered or incurred in connection with the Platform. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular
purpose, non-infringement of third party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in connection with the Platform. In no event shall
the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties have any liability to any Credit Party, any Affiliate of a Credit Party, any Lending Party or any other Person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special,
incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of any Credit Party’s, any Credit Party’s Affiliate’s or any Lending Party’s transmission of communications through the
Platform except to the extent such damages arise out of the Administrative Agents’ (or any of its Related parties’) bad faith, willful misconduct or gross negligence in each case as determined by a final
non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction. 
 (ii) Each Lender agrees
that notice to it specifying that any Communication has been posted to the Platform (a “Notice”) shall for purposes of this Agreement constitute effective delivery to such Lender of such information, documents or other materials
comprising such Communication. Each Lender agrees (i) to notify, on or before the date such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, the Administrative Agent in writing of such Lender’s e-mail address to which a Notice may be sent (and
from time to time thereafter to ensure that the Agent has on record an effective e-mail address for such Lender) and (ii) that any Notice may be sent to such e-mail address. 

(c) Change of Address, Etc. Any party hereto may change its address, e-mail address or facsimile number for notices and other
communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. 

  
 128 

 Section 9.10. Usury Not Intended. It is the intent of each Credit Party and each
Lender in the execution and performance of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents to contract in strict compliance with applicable usury laws, including conflicts of law concepts, governing the Advances of each Lender including such
applicable laws of the State of New York, if any, and the United States of America from time to time in effect. In furtherance thereof, the Lenders and the Credit Parties stipulate and agree that none of the terms and provisions contained in this
Agreement or the other Credit Documents shall ever be construed to create a contract to pay, as consideration for the use, forbearance or detention of money, interest at a rate in excess of the Maximum Rate and that for purposes of this Agreement
“interest” shall include the aggregate of all charges which constitute interest under such laws that are contracted for, charged or received under this Agreement; and in the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, under any
circumstances the aggregate amounts taken, reserved, charged, received or paid on the Advances, include amounts which by applicable law are deemed interest which would exceed the Maximum Rate, then such excess shall be deemed to be a mistake and
each Lender receiving same shall credit the same on the principal of its Obligations (or if such Obligations shall have been paid in full, refund said excess to the Borrower). In the event that the maturity of the Obligations are accelerated by
reason of any election of the Administrative Agent (including at the instruction of the Majority Lenders) resulting from any Event of Default under this Agreement or otherwise, or in the event of any required or permitted prepayment, then such
consideration that constitutes interest may never include more than the Maximum Rate, and excess interest, if any, provided for in this Agreement or otherwise shall be canceled automatically as of the date of such acceleration or prepayment and, if
theretofore paid, shall be credited on the applicable Obligations (or, if the applicable Obligations shall have been paid in full, refunded to the Borrower of such interest). In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable under any
specific contingencies exceeds the Maximum Rate, the Credit Parties and the Lenders shall to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law amortize, prorate, allocate and spread in equal parts during the period of the full stated term of the
Obligations all amounts considered to be interest under applicable law at any time contracted for, charged, received or reserved in connection with the Obligations. The provisions of this Section 9.10 shall control over all other provisions of
this Agreement or the other Credit Documents which may be in apparent conflict herewith. 
 Section 9.11. Usury Recapture. In
the event the rate of interest chargeable under this Agreement at any time is greater than the Maximum Rate, the unpaid principal amount of the Advances shall bear interest at the Maximum Rate until the total amount of interest paid or accrued on
the Advances equals the amount of interest which would have been paid or accrued on the Advances if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect. In the event, upon payment in full of the Advances, the
total amount of interest paid or accrued under the terms of this Agreement and the Advances is less than the total amount of interest which would have been paid or accrued if the rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had, at all times, been
in effect, then the Borrower shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, pay the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders an amount equal to the difference between (i) the lesser of (A) the amount of interest which would
have been charged on its Advances if the Maximum Rate had, at all times, been in effect and (B) the amount of interest which would have accrued on its Advances if the rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect
and (ii) the amount of interest actually paid under this Agreement on its Advances. In the event the Lenders ever receive, collect or apply as interest any sum in excess of the Maximum Rate, such excess amount shall, to the extent permitted by
law, be applied to the reduction of the principal balance of the Advances, and if no such principal is then outstanding, such excess or part thereof remaining shall be paid to the Borrower. 

  
 129 

 Section 9.12. Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of
the Borrower is made to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is
subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a
trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any bankruptcy or other laws for the relief of debtors or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be
satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred (except that interest and fees shall not accrue on such amount during the period between the time of payment and
the revival of such payment obligation), and (b) each Lender and each Issuing Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the
Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Overnight Rate in effect from time to time, in the applicable currency of such recovery or payment. The
obligations of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. 

Section 9.13. Governing Law. This Agreement and the other Credit Documents (unless otherwise expressly provided therein) shall be
deemed a contract under, and shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts made and to be performed entirely within such state, without regard to conflicts of laws
principles (other than Section 5-1401 and Section 5-1402 of the General Obligations Law of the State of New York). Each Letter of Credit shall be governed by
either (i) the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits (2007 Revision), International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 600, or (ii) the International Standby Practices (ISP98), International Chamber of Commerce
Publication No. 590, in either case, including any subsequent revisions thereof approved by a Congress of the International Chamber of Commerce. 

Section 9.14. Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Venue; Appointment of Agent for Service of Process. The parties hereto hereby
agree that any suit or proceeding arising in respect of this Agreement, or any of the matters contemplated hereby or thereby will be tried exclusively in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York or, if such court does not have
subject matter jurisdiction, in any state court located in the Borough of Manhattan, and the parties hereto hereby agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of, and venue in, such court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in
any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by applicable law. The parties hereto hereby agree that service of any process, summons, notice or
document by registered mail addressed to the applicable parties at the address specified in Section 9.9, and as to the Process Agent (referred to below), as provided below, will be effective service of process against such party for any action
or proceeding relating to any such dispute. Nothing in this Section 9.14 shall affect the rights of any party hereto to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by applicable law. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirement, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any court
referred to in this Section 9.14. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirement, the defense of any inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in
any such court. Each Credit Party that is a party hereto and that is not organized under the laws of the United States, any state of the United States or the District of Columbia (each, a “Foreign Credit Party”) does hereby
irrevocably appoint the Borrower (the “Process Agent”), with an office on the date hereof at 

  
 130 

 
the address specified in Section 9.9, as its agent to receive on its behalf service of copies of any summons or complaint or any other process which may be served in any action arising under
or in connection with any Credit Document. Such service may be made by mailing or delivering a copy of such process to such Foreign Credit Party in care of the Process Agent at the Process Agent’s address as provided herein, and each Foreign
Credit Party hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Process Agent to receive such service on its behalf. 
 Section 9.15.
Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together
shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or by e-mail “PDF” copy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this
Agreement. 
 Section 9.16. Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,”
“signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Acceptance shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or
enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National
Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. 

Section 9.17. Waiver of Jury. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY
RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY
OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING
WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.17. 

Section 9.18. USA Patriot Act. Each Lender that is subject to the Patriot Act and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on
behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies each Credit Party that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies such Credit Party, which information includes the name and address
of such Credit Party and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify such Credit Party in accordance with the Patriot Act. Following a request by any Secured Party, each Credit Party shall
promptly furnish all documentation and other information that such Secured Party reasonably requests in order to comply with its ongoing obligations under the applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations,
including the Patriot Act. 
 Section 9.19. Conflicts with Other Credit Documents. To the fullest extent possible, the terms and
provisions of this Agreement shall be read together with the terms and provisions of the other Credit Documents so that the terms and provisions of this Agreement do not conflict with the terms and provisions of the other Credit Documents; provided,
however, notwithstanding the foregoing and other than as to the AutoBorrow Agreement, in the event that any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement 

  
 131 

 
conflict or are inconsistent with any terms or provisions of any other Credit Document, the terms or provisions of this Agreement shall govern and control for all purposes; provided that the
inclusion in any other Credit Document of terms and provisions, and supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Administrative Agent, which are not addressed in this Agreement shall not be deemed to be in conflict with this Agreement and all
such additional terms, provisions, supplemental rights or remedies in the other Credit Documents shall be given full force and effect. 

Section 9.20. Judgment Currency. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due
hereunder or any other Credit Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other
currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of the Borrower in respect of any such sum due from it to any Secured Party hereunder or under the other Credit Documents shall, notwithstanding any
judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the
extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the such Secured Party, as the case may be, of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the such Secured Party, as the case may be, may in accordance with normal banking procedures
purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to any Secured Party from the Borrower in the Agreement Currency, the Borrower agrees, as a separate
obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Secured Party, as the case may be, against such loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to any Secured Party in such
currency, such Secured Party, as the case may be, agrees to return the amount of any excess to the Borrower (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable Legal Requirement). 

Section 9.21. Subordination Agreements. The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized on behalf of the Lenders, the Swing Line
Lender and the Issuing Lenders to enter into subordination agreements which contain the terms substantially similar to those set forth under Schedule 6.19 hereof. A copy of each such subordination agreement will be made available to each Secured
Party upon request. Each Secured Party (by receiving the benefits thereunder and of the Collateral) acknowledges and agrees to the terms of such subordination agreements and agrees that the terms thereof shall be binding on such Secured Party and
its successors and assigns, as if it were a party thereto. 
 Section 9.22. Confirmation of Flood Policies and Procedures. Wells
Fargo has adopted internal policies and procedures that address requirements placed on federally regulated lenders under the National Flood Insurance Reform Act of 1994 and related legislation (the “Flood Laws”). Wells Fargo, as
Administrative Agent, will post on the applicable electronic platform (or otherwise distribute to each Lender) documents that it receives in connection with the Flood Laws; however, Wells Fargo reminds each Lender and Participant that, pursuant to
the Flood Laws, each federally regulated Lender (whether acting as a Lender or Participant) is responsible for assuring its own compliance with the flood insurance requirements. 

Section 9.23. Keepwell. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably
undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Credit Party to honor all of its obligations under this Agreement in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor
shall only be liable under this Section 9.23 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 9.23, or otherwise under this Agreement, voidable under applicable law
relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater 

  
 132 

 
amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section shall remain in full force and effect until the termination of all Commitments and payment in full of all Secured
Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations) and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit (other than Letters of Credit as to which other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender
have been made). Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 9.23 constitute, and this Section 9.23 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Credit Party
for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act. 
 Section 9.24. No Fiduciary Duty. Notwithstanding
anything herein or in any other Credit Document to the contrary, in connection with, or in any way related to, this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including the Transactions), the Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that:
(a) each Secured Party is, has been, and will be acting solely as a principal and not as a financial advisor, agent or fiduciary, for the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s affiliates, equity holders, directors, officers, employees,
creditors or any other Person except as to maintaining a register as provided in Section 9.7 as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower for that limited purpose, (b) no Secured Party or any Affiliate
thereof has assumed or will assume an advisory, agency or fiduciary responsibility in the Borrower’s or the Borrower’s Affiliates’ favor with respect to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby (including the
Transactions) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Secured Party or any of its Affiliates has advised or is currently advising the Borrower or the Borrower’s Affiliates on other matters), and (c) no Secured Party has
provided any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby (including the Transactions) and the Borrower has consulted with its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax
advisors to the extent the Borrower has deemed appropriate. The Borrower hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by Legal Requirement, any claims that the Borrower may have against any Secured Party and their respective
Affiliates with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty. 
 Section 9.25. Integration. THIS
WRITTEN AGREEMENT AND THE CREDIT DOCUMENTS, AS DEFINED IN THIS AGREEMENT, REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES AND SUPERSEDE ALL PRIOR UNDERSTANDINGS AND AGREEMENTS, WHETHER WRITTEN OR ORAL, RELATING TO THE TRANSACTIONS PROVIDED FOR
HEREIN AND THEREIN. ADDITIONALLY, THIS AGREEMENT AND THE CREDIT DOCUMENTS MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. 

THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS AMONG THE PARTIES. 

IN EXECUTING THIS AGREEMENT, THE BORROWER HEREBY WARRANTS AND REPRESENTS IT IS NOT RELYING ON ANY STATEMENT OR REPRESENTATION OTHER THAN
THOSE IN THIS AGREEMENT AND IS RELYING UPON ITS OWN JUDGMENT AND ADVICE OF ITS ATTORNEYS.

 SCHEDULE I 

Pricing Schedule 
 The Applicable Margin
with respect to the Commitment Fees, Revolving Advances, Swing Line Advances (if applicable), and the Term Advances shall be determined in accordance with the following Table based on the Leverage Ratio as reflected in the Compliance Certificate

Statements and corresponding Compliance Certificate as required by the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall be deemed to be at Level III until delivery of its unaudited Financial Statements and corresponding
Compliance Certificate for the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2014. If the Borrower fails to deliver the Financial Statements and corresponding Compliance Certificate to the Administrative Agent at the time required pursuant to
Section 5.2, then effective as of the date such Financial Statements and Compliance Certificate were required to the delivered pursuant to Section 5.2, the Applicable Margin with respect to Commitment Fees, Revolving Advances, Swing Line
Advances (if applicable) and Term Advances shall be determined at Level IV and shall remain at such level until the date such Financial Statements and corresponding Compliance Certificate are so delivered by the Borrower. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained herein, the determination of the Applicable Margin for any period shall be subject to the provisions of Section 2.8(e). For the avoidance of doubt, the levels on the pricing grid set forth below are set forth from the

thereof) until the Termination Date. 

  

	•	 	Payments in respect of junior obligations prohibited unless (i) constituting conversion to or payment in Equity Interests of any direct or indirect parent company of Holdings, (ii) PIK interest,
(iii) made with Equity Issuance Proceeds or (iv) to the extent the maturity date of the Secured Obligations has been extended beyond the original scheduled maturity date therefor, payment of accrued and unpaid interest and principal at the
stated maturity of the junior obligations (but in the case of clauses (iii) and (iv), only so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing). 

 

	•	 	Junior obligations will not be secured, and the junior creditors will not take any collateral enforcement action and will not interfere in the enforcement of collateral securing the Secured Obligations.

  

	•	 	Junior creditors shall not be permitted to take any debt enforcement action during a Standstill Period. A “Standstill Period” shall be defined as either (i) the period commencing on the date on
which the Administrative Agent receives a standstill notice from a junior creditor that a default has occurred under the applicable junior obligation (which notice shall identify the specific junior default) and ending on the earliest of
(a) the occurrence of a bankruptcy or other insolvency proceeding with respect to the Credit Party obligated on such junior obligation, (b) the acceleration of any portion of the obligations then outstanding under the Credit Agreement or
any other Credit Document, and (c) the commencement of any foreclosure action against more than 90% (by value) of Collateral by the senior parties; provided that, for purposes of clause (b) above, no mandatory prepayment required under the
Credit Agreement shall constitute an “acceleration” thereof or (ii) such other standstill period that is more favorable to the senior parties. 

  

	•	 	Junior creditors will not contest the validity or enforceability of the Obligations under the Credit Documents or any other Secured Obligation or the priority, perfection, validity or enforceability of any Liens
securing the Secured Obligations. 

  

	•	 	Customary turnover provisions by junior creditors in the event of receipt of any prohibited payment, any Collateral or any proceeds of Collateral. 

  
 24 

	•	 	Bankruptcy related provisions: customary bankruptcy related agreements and waivers by the junior creditors, including (i) ability of senior parties to file proofs of claim if not otherwise filed by the junior
creditors within time periods to be agreed, (ii) no opposition or objection by a junior creditor to the use of cash collateral or incurrence of DIP financing supported or provided by the senior parties, (iii) no provision of adequate
protection or other relief for any junior creditor in connection with use of cash collateral or DIP financing, (iv) no objection to 363 sales or comparable provisions, (iv) no objection to receipt or request by the senior parties of
post-petition interest, fees or expenses, replacement liens and/or other adequate protection, (v) no ability by any junior creditor to seek a lifting or other modification of any stay imposed by relevant bankruptcy law, (vi) no ability of
the junior creditor to be treated as the same class as the senior parties and (vii) continuing application of subordination terms to “reorganization securities”. 

 

	•	 	No ability by any junior creditor to object or consent to any amendments, restatements, amendments and restatements, supplements and modifications to, or refinancings or reinstatements of, the Secured Obligations.

  

	•	 	Limited ability to make modifications to the terms of the junior obligations without the consent of the Required Lenders, including (but not limited to) any modifications that would contravene the subordination terms
set forth herein, contravene the terms of the Credit Agreement or otherwise adversely affect the senior parties. 

  

	•	 	Customary waiver of claims by the junior creditors against the senior parties with respect to the junior obligations, the Secured Obligations, the Collateral or any enforcement actions taken by the senior parties with
respect to the Secured Obligations.

FORM OF GUARANTY AGREEMENT 

This Guaranty Agreement dated as of August 7, 2014 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time
to time, this “Guaranty”) is executed by (a) Pioneer Intermediate, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Parent”), (b) NCS Oilfield Services Canada, Inc., a corporation amalgamated pursuant to the laws of Alberta
(“NCS Canada”) and (c) each of the undersigned subsidiaries of the Parent (individually a “Guarantor” and collectively, the “Guarantors”), in favor of Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as
Administrative Agent (as defined below) for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties. 
 INTRODUCTION 

A. This Guaranty is given in connection with that certain Credit Agreement dated as of August 7, 2014 (as amended, restated, amended and
restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), by and among (a) the Parent, (b) Pioneer Investment, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), (c) the lenders
party thereto from time to time, (the “Lenders”), (d) Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”), an issuing lender and swing line lender, and
(e) HSBC Bank Canada, as an issuing lender. 
 B. Each Guarantor is either the Parent, NCS Canada or a Restricted Subsidiary of the
Parent that is a Domestic Subsidiary, and (i) the transactions contemplated by the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents, (ii) the Hedging Arrangements entered into by any Credit Party with a Swap Counterparty, and (iii) the
Banking Services provided by Banking Services Provider to any Credit Party, each are (a) in furtherance of such Guarantor’s corporate or limited liability company purposes, (b) necessary or convenient to the conduct, promotion or
attainment of such Guarantor’s business, and (c) for such Guarantor’s direct or indirect benefit. 
 C. The Borrower is a
party to this Guaranty in order to guarantee the Secured Obligations to the extent that the Secured Obligations were directly incurred by a Credit Party other than the Borrower. 

D. Each Guarantor is executing and delivering this Guaranty (i) to induce the Lenders to provide and to continue to provide Advances
under the Credit Agreement, (ii) to induce the Issuing Lenders to provide and to continue to provide Letters of Credit under the Credit Agreement, and (iii) intending it to be a legal, valid, binding, enforceable and continuing obligation
of such Guarantor. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, each Guarantor hereby agrees as follows: 

Section 1. Definitions. All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Guaranty that are defined in the Credit Agreement
shall have the meanings assigned to such terms by the Credit Agreement. 
 Section 2. Guaranty. 

(a) Each Guarantor hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the punctual payment and performance, when due, whether at
stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all Secured Obligations, whether absolute or contingent and whether for principal, interest (including, without limitation, interest that but for the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or
similar proceeding would accrue) (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”). Without limiting the generality 

  
 Exhibit C – Form
of Guaranty Agreement 
 Page 1 of 16 

 
of the foregoing, each Guarantor’s liability shall extend to all amounts that constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations and would be owed to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender,
the Swing Line Lender or any Lender under the Credit Documents, or any other Secured Party, but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to insolvency or the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization, moratorium or similar
proceeding involving such Guarantor. 
 (b) If any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations are not duly paid or performed by the Borrower and
are not recoverable under Section 2(a) for any reason whatsoever, such Guaranteed Obligations shall, as a separate and distinct obligation, be recoverable by the Secured Parties from each Guarantor as the primary obligor and principal debtor in
respect thereof and shall be paid to the Secured Parties forthwith after demand therefor as provided herein. 
 (c) In order to provide for
just and equitable contribution among the Guarantors, the Guarantors agree that in the event a payment shall be made on any date under this Guaranty by any Guarantor (the “Funding Guarantor”), each other Guarantor (each a
“Contributing Guarantor”) shall indemnify the Funding Guarantor in an amount equal to the amount of such payment, in each case multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which shall be the net worth of the Contributing Guarantor as
of such date and the denominator of which shall be the aggregate net worth of all the Contributing Guarantors together with the net worth of the Funding Guarantor as of such date. Any Contributing Guarantor making any payment to a Funding Guarantor
pursuant to this Section 2(b) shall be subrogated to the rights of such Funding Guarantor to the extent of such payment. 
 (d) Each
Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Credit Party to honor all of its obligations under
this Guaranty in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 2 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations
under this Section 2, or otherwise under this Guaranty, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section
shall remain in full force and effect until the Termination Date. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 2 constitute, and this Section 2 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement”
for the benefit of each other Credit Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act. 
 (e) Anything
contained in this Guaranty to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of each Guarantor under this Guaranty on any date shall be limited to a maximum aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not, on such date, render its
obligations hereunder subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Section 548 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (11 U.S.C. §§ 101 et. seq) or any applicable provisions of comparable laws relating to
bankruptcy, insolvency, or reorganization, or relief of debtors (collectively, the “Fraudulent Transfer Laws”), but only to the extent that any Fraudulent Transfer Law has been found in a final
non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to be applicable to such obligations as of such date, in each case: 

(i) after giving effect to all liabilities of such Guarantor, contingent or otherwise, that are relevant under the Fraudulent
Transfer Laws, but specifically excluding: 
 (A) any liabilities of such Guarantor in respect of intercompany indebtedness
to the Borrower or other affiliates of the Borrower to the extent that such indebtedness would be discharged in an amount equal to the amount paid by such Guarantor hereunder; 

  
 Guaranty Agreement

 Page 2 of 16 

 (B) any liabilities of such Guarantor under this Guaranty; and 

(C) any liabilities of such Guarantor under each of its other guarantees of and joint and several co-borrowings of Debt, in each case entered into on the date this Guaranty becomes effective, which contain a limitation as to maximum amount substantially similar to that set forth in this Section 2(e) (each such
other guarantee and joint and several co-borrowing entered into on the date this Guaranty becomes effective, a “Competing Guaranty”) to the extent such Guarantor’s liabilities under such
Competing Guaranty exceed an amount equal to (1) the aggregate principal amount of such Guarantor’s obligations under such Competing Guaranty (notwithstanding the operation of that limitation contained in such Competing Guaranty that is
substantially similar to this Section 2(e)), multiplied by (2) a fraction (i) the numerator of which is the aggregate principal amount of such Guarantor’s obligations under such Competing Guaranty (notwithstanding the operation of
that limitation contained in such Competing Guaranty that is substantially similar to this Section 2(e)), and (ii) the denominator of which is the sum of (x) the aggregate principal amount of the obligations of such Guarantor under all
other Competing Guaranties (notwithstanding the operation of those limitations contained in such other Competing Guaranties that are substantially similar to this Section 2(e)), (y) the aggregate principal amount of the obligations of such Guarantor
under this Guaranty (notwithstanding the operation of this Section 2(e)), and (z) the aggregate principal amount of the obligations of such Guarantor under such Competing Guaranty (notwithstanding the operation of that limitation contained in
such Competing Guaranty that is substantially similar to this Section 2(e)); and 
 (ii) after giving effect as assets to the
value (as determined under the applicable provisions of the Fraudulent Transfer Laws) of any rights to subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification or contribution of such Guarantor pursuant to applicable law or pursuant to the terms of any agreement
(including any such right of contribution under Section 2(b)). 
 Section 3. Guaranty Absolute. Until the Termination Date, each
Guarantor guarantees that the Guaranteed Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the Credit Documents, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or
the rights of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender, the Swing Line Lender, any Lender, any Banking Services Provider or any Swap Counterparty with respect thereto but subject to Sections 2(c) or 2(d) above. The obligations of each Guarantor
under this Guaranty are independent of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other obligations of any other Person under the Credit Documents or in connection with any Hedging Arrangement, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted
against a Guarantor to enforce this Guaranty, irrespective of whether any action is brought against any Guarantor or any other Person or whether any Guarantor or any other Person is joined in any such action or actions. The liability of each
Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be irrevocable, absolute and unconditional irrespective of, and each Guarantor, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, hereby irrevocably waives any defenses it may now or hereafter have in any way
relating to, any or all of the following: 
 (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Credit Document or any agreement or instrument
relating thereto or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations being irrecoverable; 
 (b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of,
or in any other term of, all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other obligations of any Person under the Credit Documents or any agreement or instrument relating to Hedging Arrangements with a Swap Counterparty, or Banking Services with a
Banking Services Provider, or any other amendment or waiver of or any

(c) any taking, exchange, release or non-perfection of any collateral, or any taking, release or
amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any other guaranty, for all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations; 
 (d) any manner of
application of collateral, or proceeds thereof, to all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any manner of sale or other disposition of any collateral for all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other obligations of any other Person under
the Credit Documents or any other assets of any Guarantor; 
 (e) any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or
existence of any Guarantor; 
 (f) any failure of any Lender, the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender, the Swing Line Lender or any
other Secured Party to disclose to any Guarantor any information relating to the business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations, properties or prospects of any Person now or in the future known to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing
Lender, the Swing Line Lender, any Lender or any other Secured Party (and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any duty on the part of any Secured Party to disclose such information); 

(g) any signature of any officer of any Guarantor being mechanically reproduced in facsimile or otherwise; 

(h) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) which may at
any time be available to or be asserted by any Guarantor or any other Person against any Secured Party; 
 (i) the insolvency, bankruptcy
arrangement, reorganization, adjustment, composition, liquidation, disability, dissolution or lack of power of any Guarantor or any other Person at any time liable for the payment of all or part of the Guaranteed Obligations or the failure of the
Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to file or enforce a claim in bankruptcy or other proceeding with respect to any Person; or any sale, lease or transfer of any or all of the assets of any Guarantor, or any changes in the holders of
equity of any Guarantor; 
 (j) any failure of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to take any action whatsoever to mitigate
or reduce any Guarantor’s liability hereunder or any other Credit Document; 
 (k) any Legal Requirement which provides that the
obligation of a surety or guarantor must neither be larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal or which reduces a surety’s or guarantor’s obligation in proportion to the principal obligation; 

(l) the possibility that the Guaranteed Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the aggregate liability of such Guarantor
under this Guaranty;

protest or to give any other notice, including notice of all of the following: acceptance of this Guaranty, partial payment or non-payment of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations and the existence,
creation, or incurring of new or additional Guaranteed Obligations; 
 (n) any defense arising by reason of any incapacity, lack of
authority, or other defense of the Borrower or any other person, or by reason of any limitation, postponement or prohibition on a Secured Party’s rights to payment, or the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of the Borrower or
any other person with respect to all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than payment to the Secured Parties in full), or by reason of any act or omission of the Secured Parties or others which directly or indirectly results in the
discharge or release of the Borrower or any other person or of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security or guarantee therefor, whether by contract, operation of law or otherwise;

then to the extent of such repayment the Guaranteed Obligations shall be reinstated and continued in full force and effect as of the date such initial payment or collection of proceeds occurred.

(a) No Guarantor will exercise any rights that it may now have or hereafter acquire against any Credit Party to the extent that such rights
arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of such Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty or any other Credit Document, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or
indemnification and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of any Secured Party against any Credit Party, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law, including, without limitation,
the right to take or receive from any Credit Party, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim, remedy or right, until
after the Termination Date. If any amount shall be paid to a Guarantor in violation of the preceding sentence at any time prior to or on the Termination Date, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall
forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent to be credited and applied to the Guaranteed Obligations and any and all other amounts payable by the Guarantors under this Guaranty, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the
Credit Documents. 
 (b) Each Guarantor agrees that all Subordinated Guarantor Obligations (as hereinafter defined) are and shall be
subordinate and inferior in rank, preference and priority to all obligations of such Guarantor in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations hereunder, and such Guarantor shall, if requested by the Administrative Agent, execute a subordination agreement
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent to more fully set out the terms of such subordination. Each Guarantor agrees that none of the Subordinated Guarantor Obligations shall be secured by a lien or security interest on any assets of
such Guarantor or any ownership interests in any Subsidiary of such Guarantor. “Subordinated Guarantor Obligations” means any and all obligations and liabilities of a Guarantor owing to any other Guarantor, direct or contingent, due
or to become due, now existing or hereafter arising, including, without limitation, all future advances, with interest, attorneys’ fees, expenses of collection and costs. 

Section 7. Representations and Warranties. Each Guarantor hereby represents and warrants as follows: 

(a) There are no conditions precedent to the effectiveness of this Guaranty. 

(b) That such Guarantor has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any Lender and based on such documents and
information as it has deemed reasonably appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Guaranty, and such Guarantor has established adequate means of obtaining from each Credit Party on a continuing basis information
pertaining to, and is now and on a continuing basis will be familiar with, the business, condition (financial and otherwise), operations, properties and prospects of each Credit Party. 

(c) The obligations of such Guarantor under this Guaranty are the valid, binding and legally enforceable obligations of such Guarantor in
accordance with its terms, except as limited by applicable Debtor Relief Laws at the time in effect affecting the rights of creditors generally and by general principles of equity whether applied by a court of law or equity, and the execution and
delivery of this Guaranty by such Guarantor has been duly authorized by all requisite corporate or limited liability company actions, as applicable, on the part of such Guarantor, and the Person who is executing and delivering this Guaranty on
behalf of such Guarantor.

 Section 8. Right of Set-Off. If an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender, each Lender, each Issuing Lender, and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by the Administrative Agent,
the Swing Line Lender, such Lender, such Issuing Lender or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or any other Credit Party against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower or such Credit Party now or hereafter
existing under this Guaranty or any other Credit Document to the Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender, such Lender, such Issuing Lender or such Affiliate, irrespective of whether or not the Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender, such
Lender, such Issuing Lender or such Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Guaranty or any other Credit Document and although such obligations of the Borrower or such Credit Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or
office of the Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender, such Lender, such Affiliate or such Issuing Lender different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of the Administrative Agent, the
Swing Line Lender, each Lender, each Issuing Lender and their respective Affiliates under this Section 8 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that the Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender, such
Lender, such Issuing Lender or their respective Affiliates may have. The Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender, each Lender and each Issuing Lender agrees to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and
application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

the Administrative Agent and shall otherwise be in accordance with Section 9.3 of the Credit Agreement, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

Section 9.9 of the Credit Agreement, and if to a Guarantor, at its address for notices specified in Schedule II to the Security Agreement, and if to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender, the Swing Line Lender or any Lender, at its
address specified in or pursuant to the Credit Agreement. All such notices and communications shall be effective as specified in Section 9.9 of the Credit Agreement. 

Section 11. No Waiver: Remedies. No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to exercise, and no
delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein
provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

Notes, endorsed to the order of) the Administrative Agent pursuant hereto, shall be in suitable form for transfer by delivery, and shall be accompanied by all necessary endorsements or instruments of transfer or assignment, duly executed in blank.

and in trust for the Administrative Agent until paid to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 4.1(e). 
 SECTION 2.7.
Security Interest Absolute, etc. This Security Agreement shall in all respects be a continuing, absolute, unconditional and irrevocable grant of security interest, and shall remain in full force and effect until the Termination Date. All
rights of the Secured Parties and the security interests granted to the Administrative Agent (for its benefit and the ratable benefit of each other Secured Party) hereunder, and all obligations of each Grantor hereunder, shall, in each case, be
absolute, unconditional and irrevocable irrespective of (a) any lack of validity, legality or enforceability of any Credit Document, (b) the failure of any Secured Party (i) to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or
remedy against any Grantor or any other Person under the provisions of any Credit Document or otherwise, or (ii) to exercise any right or remedy against any other guarantor of, or collateral securing, any Secured Obligations, (c) any
change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any part of the Secured Obligations, or any other extension, compromise or renewal of any Secured Obligations, (d) any reduction, limitation, impairment or
termination of any Secured Obligations (except in the case of the occurrence of the Termination Date) for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to (and each Grantor hereby
waives, to the fullest extent not prohibited by Legal Requirement, any right to or claim of) any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality, nongenuineness, irregularity, compromise,
unenforceability of, or any other event or occurrence affecting, any Secured Obligations or otherwise, (e) any amendment to, rescission, waiver, or other modification of, or any consent to or departure from, any of the terms of any Credit
Document, (f) any addition, exchange or release of any Collateral securing any of the Secured Obligations, or any surrender or non-perfection of any collateral, or any amendment to or waiver or release or
addition to, or consent to or departure from, any other guaranty held by any Secured Party securing any of the Secured Obligations (other than releases of Collateral and/or guarantees in accordance with the terms of the Credit Documents), or
(g) any other 

  
 Exhibit H – Form
of Pledge and Security Agreement 
 Page 11 of 48 

 
circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a legal or equitable discharge of, any Grantor or any other Credit Party, any surety or any guarantor (other than the
occurrence of the Termination Date but subject to reinstatement as provided herein or under applicable law). 
 SECTION 2.8. Waiver of
Subrogation. Each Grantor hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent not prohibited by Legal Requirement, any claim or other rights which it may now or hereafter acquire against any Credit Party that arise from the existence, payment,
performance or enforcement of such Grantor’s obligations under this Security Agreement or any other Credit Document, including any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration or indemnification, any right to participate in any claim or
remedy of any Secured Party against any Credit Party or any collateral which any Secured Party now has or hereafter acquires, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity, or under contract, statute or common law, including the right
to take or receive from any Credit Party, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any manner, payment or security on account of such claim or other rights. If any amount shall be
paid to any Grantor in violation of the preceding sentence and the Termination Date shall not have occurred, then such amount shall be deemed to have been paid to such Grantor for the benefit of, and held in trust for, the Administrative Agent (on
behalf of the Secured Parties), and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent to be credited and applied upon the Secured Obligations, whether matured or unmatured. Each Grantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect
benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by the Credit Agreement and that the waiver set forth in this Section 2.8 is knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits. 

SECTION 2.9. Election of Remedies. Except as otherwise provided in the Credit Agreement, if any Secured Party may, under applicable
law, proceed to realize its benefits under any of this Security Agreement or the other Credit Documents giving any Secured Party a Lien upon any Collateral, either by judicial foreclosure or by non-judicial
sale or enforcement, such Secured Party may, at its sole option, determine which of its remedies or rights it may pursue without affecting any of its rights and remedies under this Security Agreement. If, in the exercise of any of its rights and
remedies, any Secured Party shall forfeit any of its rights or remedies, including its right to enter a deficiency judgment against any Credit Party or any other Person, whether because of any applicable laws pertaining to “election of
remedies” or the like, each Grantor hereby consents to such action by such Secured Party and waives any claim based upon the forfeiture of any such Secured Party’s rights or remedies, even if such forfeiture by such Secured Party shall
result in a full or partial loss of any rights of subrogation that such Grantor might otherwise have had but for such action by such Secured Party.

Interests constituting Collateral) delivered by such Grantor pursuant to this Security Agreement will be accompanied by duly endorsed undated blank stock powers, or other equivalent instruments of transfer reasonably acceptable to the Administrative

Chattel Paper, and all interest and principal with respect to such Payment Intangibles, and all Proceeds and rights from time to time received by or distributable to such Grantor in respect of

agree to) following receipt thereof, deliver to the Administrative Agent possession of all originals of (i) Pledged Interests and Pledged Shares and (ii) Pledged Notes and any other Pledged Property, negotiable Documents, Instruments,
promissory notes and Chattel Paper evidencing amounts payable in excess of $100,000 individually and $1,000,000 collectively (duly endorsed, in blank, if requested by the Administrative Agent), that it acquires following the Closing Date and shall

Distributions (other than Permitted Tax Distributions) with respect to Investment Property, all interest principal and other cash payments on Payment Intangibles, the Pledged Property and all Proceeds of the Pledged Property or any other Collateral,
in case thereafter received by such Grantor, all of which shall be held by the Administrative Agent as additional Collateral; and 

(ii) if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Administrative Agent has given such Grantor prior
written notice of the Administrative Agent’s intention to exercise its voting power under this Section 4.1(e)(ii), 

(A) the Administrative Agent may exercise (to the exclusion of such Grantor) the voting power and all other incidental rights
of ownership with respect to any Pledged Shares, Investment Property or other Equity Interests constituting Collateral. EACH GRANTOR HEREBY GRANTS THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AN IRREVOCABLE PROXY (WHICH IRREVOCABLE PROXY SHALL CONTINUE IN EFFECT
UNTIL SUCH DEFAULT SHALL HAVE BEEN CURED OR WAIVED) EXERCISABLE UNDER SUCH CIRCUMSTANCES, TO VOTE THE PLEDGED SHARES, PLEDGED INTERESTS, INVESTMENT PROPERTY AND SUCH OTHER COLLATERAL; AND 

(B) promptly to deliver to the Administrative Agent such additional proxies and other documents, as requested by the
Administrative Agent, as may be necessary to allow the Administrative Agent to exercise such voting power. 
 All Distributions, interest, principal, cash
payments, Payment Intangibles and Proceeds that may at any time and from time to time be held by any Grantor but which such Grantor is then obligated to deliver to the Administrative Agent (other than, in the case of Distributions, Permitted Tax
Distributions), shall, until delivery to the Administrative Agent, be held by such Grantor separate and apart from its other property in trust for the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent agrees that unless an Event of Default shall have

is granted a proxy, with respect to any Equity Interests 

  
 Exhibit H – Form
of Pledge and Security Agreement 
 Page 18 of 48 

 
(including any of the Pledged Shares) constituting Collateral. Administrative Agent shall, upon the written request of any Grantor, promptly deliver such proxies and other documents, if any, as
shall be reasonably requested by such Grantor which are necessary to allow such Grantor to exercise that voting power with respect to any such Equity Interests (including any of the Pledged Shares) constituting Collateral. 

(f) STA Securities. Each Grantor which is a partnership or limited liability company organized under the laws of Canada shall, and each

SECTION 4.2. Organizational Documents; Change of Name, etc. No Grantor will change its jurisdiction of incorporation, formation or
organization or its name, identity, organizational identification number or corporate structure unless such Grantor shall have (a) given the Administrative Agent notice of such change in accordance with the Credit Agreement, (b) obtained
the consent of the requisite Lenders, if such consent is so required by the Credit Documents, and (c) taken all actions necessary or as requested by the Administrative Agent to ensure that the Liens on the Collateral granted in favor of the
Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties remain perfected, first-priority Liens (subject to Permitted Liens and other than, as to perfection, Excluded Perfection Collateral) subject to the terms hereof. 

SECTION 4.3. As to Accounts. 

(a) Each Grantor shall have the right to collect all Accounts, except as provided in Section 4.4 below. 

(b) Upon (i) the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default and (ii) the delivery of written notice by the Administrative
Agent to each Grantor, all Proceeds of Collateral received by any Grantor shall be delivered in kind to the Administrative Agent for deposit in a Deposit Account of such Grantor (A) maintained with the Administrative Agent or
(B) maintained at a depositary bank other than the Administrative Agent to which such Grantor, the Administrative Agent and the depositary bank have entered into a Control Agreement providing that the depositary bank will comply with the
instructions originated by the Administrative Agent directing disposition of the funds in the account without further consent by such Grantor (any such Deposit Accounts, together with any other Accounts pursuant to which any portion of the
Collateral is deposited with the Administrative Agent, a “Collateral Account,” and collectively, the “Collateral Accounts”), and such Grantor shall not commingle any such Proceeds, and shall hold separate and apart
from all other property, all such Proceeds in express trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent until delivery thereof is made to the Administrative Agent. 

(c) Following the delivery of written notice pursuant to clause (b)(ii) during the continuance of an Event of Default, the
Administrative Agent shall have the right to apply any amount in the Collateral Accounts to the payment of any Secured Obligations which are due and payable in accordance with Section 7.6 of the Credit Agreement. 

(d) With respect to each of the Collateral Accounts, it is hereby confirmed and agreed that (i) deposits in such Collateral Account are
subject to a security interest as contemplated hereby, (ii) such Collateral Account shall be under the control of the Administrative Agent, provided that the Administrative Agent shall have entered into a Control Agreement with respect to any
Accounts that are maintained with a bank other than the Administrative Agent and (iii) the Administrative Agent shall have the sole right of withdrawal over such Collateral Account; provided that withdrawals shall only be made during the
existence of an Event of Default. 
 (e) No Grantor shall adjust, settle, or compromise the amount or payment of any Receivable, nor release
wholly or partly any account debtor or obligor thereof, nor allow any credit or discount thereon (each such action being referred to herein as a “Discount”); provided that, a Grantor may make such Discounts thereon so long as
(i) no Event of Default under Sections 7.1(a) or 7.1(g) of the Credit Agreement has occurred and is continuing, (ii) such Discount is permitted under Section 6.7(h) of the Credit Agreement, (iii) such Discount is made in the ordinary
course of business and consistent with past practices, and (iv) such Discount is, in such Grantor’s good faith business judgment, commercially reasonable.

Secured Obligations, the Administrative Agent may (i) notify any parties obligated on any of the Collateral to make payment to the Administrative Agent of any amounts due or to become due thereunder and (ii) enforce collection of any of
the Collateral by suit or otherwise and surrender, release, or exchange all or any part thereof, or compromise or extend or renew for any period (whether or not longer than the original period) any indebtedness thereunder or evidenced thereby. 

(b) Upon written request of the Administrative Agent following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor

(c) At any time following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may endorse, in the name
of the applicable Grantor, any item, howsoever received by the Administrative Agent, representing any payment on or other Proceeds of any of the Collateral. 

SECTION 4.5. As to Equipment and Inventory and Goods. Each Grantor agrees to take such action (or cause its Subsidiaries that are also
Credit Parties to take such action), including endorsing certificates of title or executing applications for transfer of title, as is required by the terms of the Credit Agreement and to transfer the same. Each Grantor agrees to take such action (or
cause its Subsidiaries that are also Credit Parties to take such action) as is reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to enable it to properly perfect and protect its Lien on Equipment and Inventory and Goods pursuant to the terms of this
Security Agreement and the Credit Agreement (other than, as to perfection, Excluded Perfection Collateral). 
 SECTION 4.6. As to
Intellectual Property Collateral. Each Grantor covenants and agrees to comply with the following provisions as such provisions relate to any Intellectual Property Collateral material to the operations or business of such Grantor: 

(a) such Grantor will not (i) do or fail to perform any act whereby any such Patent Collateral may lapse or become abandoned or dedicated

permit any act or knowingly omit to do any act whereby any such Copyright Collateral or any such Trade Secrets Collateral may lapse or become invalid or unenforceable or placed in the public domain except upon expiration of the end of an unrenewable
term of a registration thereof, unless, in the case of any of the foregoing requirements in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), such Grantor shall reasonably and in good faith determine that any of such Intellectual Property Collateral
is of immaterial economic value to such Grantor; 

  
 Exhibit H – Form
of Pledge and Security Agreement 
 Page 20 of 48 

 (b) such Grantor shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent if it knows that any application
or registration relating to any material item of such Intellectual Property Collateral may become abandoned or dedicated to the public or placed in the public domain or invalid or unenforceable, or of any adverse determination or development
(including the institution of, or any such determination or development in, any proceeding in the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office, the Canadian Intellectual Property Office or any foreign counterpart
thereof or any court) regarding such Grantor’s ownership of any such Intellectual Property Collateral, its right to register the same or to keep and maintain and enforce the same; 

(c) following the filing of an application for the registration of any such material Intellectual Property Collateral with the United States
Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or the Canadian Intellectual Property Office or, other than with respect to Excluded Perfection Collateral, any similar office or agency in any other country or any political
subdivision or upon the registration thereof with any such office, such Grantor shall within thirty (30) days following such filing promptly inform the Administrative Agent of the same and deliver a supplement to Schedule III identifying
such Intellectual Property Collateral, and upon reasonable request of the Administrative Agent (subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement), execute and deliver all agreements, instruments and documents as the Administrative Agent may reasonably
request to evidence the Administrative Agent’s security interest in such Intellectual Property Collateral; 
 (d) such Grantor will
take all necessary steps, including in any proceeding before the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office, the Canadian Intellectual Property Office or (subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement), if
reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, any similar office or agency in any other country or any political subdivision thereof, to maintain and pursue any application (and to obtain the relevant registration) filed with respect to, and to
maintain any registration of, each such Intellectual Property Collateral material to the operations or business of such Grantor, including the filing of applications for renewal, affidavits of use, affidavits of incontestability and opposition,
interference and cancellation proceedings and the payment of fees and taxes (except to the extent that dedication, abandonment or invalidation is permitted under the foregoing clause (a) or (b) or to the extent such Grantor shall
reasonably and in good faith determine is of immaterial economic value to such Grantor); and 
 (e) following the obtaining of an interest
in any such Intellectual Property Collateral by such Grantor or, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such Grantor shall deliver all agreements, instruments and
documents the Administrative Agent may reasonably request to evidence the Administrative Agent’s security interest in such Intellectual Property Collateral and as may otherwise be required to acknowledge or register or perfect the
Administrative Agent’s interest in any part of such item of Intellectual Property Collateral unless such Grantor shall determine in good faith (and if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, with the consent of the Administrative
Agent) that any Intellectual Property Collateral is of immaterial economic value to such Grantor. 
 SECTION 4.7. As to Electronic
Chattel Paper and Transferable Records. If any Grantor at any time holds or acquires an interest in any electronic chattel paper or any “transferable record,” as that term is defined in Section 201 of the U.S. Federal Electronic
Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, or in Section 16 of the U.S. Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, or any comparable provision of any other law, as in effect in any relevant jurisdiction, then upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default following written notice from the Administrative Agent, such Grantor shall take such action as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request to vest in the Administrative Agent control (for the ratable benefit of
Secured Parties) under Section 9-105 of the UCC (and under the PPSA) of such electronic chattel paper or control under Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures 

  
 Exhibit H – Form
of Pledge and Security Agreement 
 Page 21 of 48 

 
in Global and National Commerce Act or, as the case may be, Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, as so in effect in such jurisdiction, of such transferable record. The
Administrative Agent agrees with each Grantor that the Administrative Agent will arrange, pursuant to procedures reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and so long as such procedures will not result in the Administrative Agent’s
loss of control, for such Grantor to make alterations to the electronic chattel paper or transferable record permitted under Section 9-105 of the UCC (or under the PPSA) or, as the case may be,
Section 201 of the U.S. Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or Section 16 of the U.S. Uniform Electronic Transactions Act for a party in control to allow without loss of control, unless an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing or would occur after taking into account any action by such Grantor with respect to such electronic chattel paper or transferable record. 

SECTION 4.8. As to Certificated Equipment. 

(a) Each Grantor shall cause all Certificated Equipment to be properly titled in the name of the appropriate Grantor and to
have the Administrative Agent’s Lien granted hereunder on such Certificated Equipment properly noted on the certificate of title with respect thereof as required under the Credit Agreement. Subject to the terms of this Security Agreement, the
Credit Agreement and the Custodial Agreement, the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, shall provide to the Custodians a power of attorney to execute all documents and instruments necessary to have the Administrative Agent’s
Lien granted hereunder properly noted on the certificate of title with respect to Certificated Equipment. 
 (b) Until the
Administrative Agent exercises remedies upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, promptly upon written request by the Administrative Agent, the certificates of title with respect to Certificated Equipment shall be maintained by the Custodians at
the applicable Grantor’s offices where records for Collateral are kept (as identified in Schedule II hereto) or such other office as may be agreed to in writing between such Grantor and the Administrative Agent. With respect to Certificated
Equipment to be sold or otherwise transferred in accordance with Section 6.7 of the Credit Agreement, if no Event of Default then exists, then upon request, the Administrative Agent shall, at the Grantors’ expense, provide to the
Custodians powers of attorney effective for the six-month periods (or such shorter period as may be required by the Administrative Agent). Such power of attorney shall authorize the Custodians, on behalf of the Administrative Agent, to execute all
documents and instruments necessary to release the security interest granted hereunder with respect to Certificated Equipment which are to be sold or transferred in accordance with Section 6.7 of the Credit Agreement and to file partial
discharges against equipment that is sold or transferred in accordance with Section 6.7 of the Credit Agreement in Canada and for which a specific vehicle identification number was noted on a PPSA registration. 

(c) If any individual holding a power of attorney provided by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties
hereunder resigns as a Custodian under its applicable Custodial Agreement or ceases to be an employee of the applicable Grantor (any such event being, the “Termination”), such applicable Grantor shall provide notice of such
Termination to the Administrative Agent on or before 30 days after the effective date of such Termination. Within 30 days of receipt of notice of such Termination, the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, may designate an agent
(who, at the option of the Borrower, may be an employee of the Borrower or any other Credit Party and who is approved by the Borrower), who has executed and delivered a Custodial Agreement, to hold a power of attorney in replacement of such
Custodian that was subject to a Termination. If a Termination has occurred and no replacement Custodian is designated in accordance with the terms hereof, then at the Administrative Agent’s request, which may be made in its reasonable
discretion, the applicable 

  
 Exhibit H – Form
of Pledge and Security Agreement 
 Page 22 of 48 

 
Grantor shall promptly deliver to the Administrative Agent all certificates of title with respect to the applicable US Certificated Equipment constituting Collateral which are in such
Grantor’s possession. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, then at the Administrative Agent’s request the Grantors shall promptly deliver to the Administrative Agent all certificates of title with respect to US
Certificated Equipment constituting Collateral which are in any Grantor’s (or the applicable Custodian’s) possession. 
 SECTION
4.9. As to Letter of Credit Rights. 
 (a) Each Grantor, by granting a security interest in its Letter of Credit
Rights to the Administrative Agent, intends to (and hereby does) collaterally assign to the Administrative Agent its rights (including its contingent rights ) to the Proceeds of all Letter of Credit Rights of which it is or hereafter becomes a
beneficiary or assignee. During the existence of an Event of Default, promptly following the date on which any Grantor obtains any Letter of Credit Rights after the date hereof, such Grantor shall deliver a supplement to Schedule II
identifying such new Letter of Credit Right. 
 (b) During the existence of an Event of Default, each Grantor shall, promptly
upon request by the Administrative Agent, (i) notify (and each Grantor hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to notify) the issuer and each nominated person with respect to each of the Letters of Credit that the Proceeds thereof have been
assigned to the Administrative Agent hereunder and that any payments due or to become due in respect thereof are to be made directly to the Administrative Agent and (ii) arrange for the Administrative Agent to become the transferee beneficiary
of each Letter of Credit. 
 SECTION 4.10. As to Commercial Tort Claims. During the existence of an Event of Default, each Grantor
shall, promptly upon written request by the Administrative Agent, with respect to any Commercial Tort Claim, deliver to the Administrative Agent a supplement to Schedule II in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative
Agent, identifying such new Commercial Tort Claims. 
 SECTION 4.11. Further Assurances, etc. Each Grantor shall warrant and defend
the right and title herein granted unto the Administrative Agent in and to the Collateral (and all right, title and interest represented by the Collateral) against the claims and demands of all Persons whomsoever, other than any holder of a
Permitted Lien. Each Grantor agrees that, from time to time at its own expense, it will promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action, that may be reasonably necessary or that the Administrative
Agent may reasonably request, in order to perfect, preserve and protect any security interest granted or purported to be granted hereby or to enable the Administrative Agent to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to
any Collateral (other than, as to perfection, Excluded Perfection Collateral) subject to the terms hereof. Each Grantor agrees that, upon the acquisition after the date hereof by such Grantor of any Collateral, with respect to which the security
interest granted hereunder is not perfected automatically upon such acquisition, to take such actions with respect to such Collateral (other than, as to perfection, Excluded Perfection Collateral) or any part thereof as required by the Credit
Documents. Each Grantor will file (and hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to file) such filing statements or continuation statements, or amendments thereto, and such other instruments or notices (including any assignment of claim form under
or pursuant to the federal assignment of claims statute, 31 U.S.C. § 3726, any successor or amended version thereof or any regulation promulgated under or pursuant to any version thereof), as may be necessary or that the Administrative Agent
may reasonably request in order to perfect and preserve the security interests and other rights granted or purported to be granted to the Administrative Agent hereby. The authorization contained above shall be irrevocable and continuing until the
Termination Date.

Each Grantor agrees that a carbon, photographic or other reproduction of this Security Agreement or any UCC financing statement or PPSA financing statement covering the Collateral or any part
thereof shall be sufficient as a UCC financing statement or PPSA financing statement where permitted by law. Each Grantor hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to file financing statements describing as the collateral covered thereby “all
of the debtor’s personal property or assets” or words to that effect, notwithstanding that such wording may be broader in scope than the Collateral described in this Security Agreement. 

ARTICLE V 
 THE ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENT 
 SECTION 5.1. Administrative Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. Each Grantor hereby
irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent its attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or otherwise, from time to time in the
Administrative Agent’s discretion, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to take any action and to execute any instrument which the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the
purposes of this Security Agreement, including (a) to ask, demand, collect, sue for, recover, compromise, receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in respect of any of the Collateral, (b) to
receive, endorse, and collect any drafts or other Instruments, Documents and Chattel Paper, in connection with clause (a) above, (c) to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings which the Administrative Agent may
deem necessary or desirable for the collection of any of the Collateral or otherwise to enforce the rights of the Administrative Agent with respect to any of the Collateral, and (d) to perform the affirmative obligations of such Grantor
hereunder. EACH GRANTOR HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES, CONSENTS AND AGREES THAT THE POWER OF ATTORNEY GRANTED PURSUANT TO THIS SECTION 5.1 IS IRREVOCABLE AND COUPLED WITH AN INTEREST AND SHALL BE EFFECTIVE UNTIL THE TERMINATION DATE. 

SECTION 5.2. Administrative Agent May Perform. If any Grantor fails to perform any agreement contained herein (after giving effect to
any applicable notice requirements and cure periods under the Credit Agreement and this Security Agreement), the Administrative Agent may, during the continuance of any Event of Default and, to the extent practical, with prior written notice thereof
to the Borrower or such Grantor, itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the expenses of the Administrative Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by such Grantor pursuant to
Section 9.1 of the Credit Agreement and the Administrative Agent may from time to time take any other action which the Administrative Agent reasonably deems necessary for the maintenance, preservation or protection of any
of the Collateral or of its security interest therein. 
 SECTION 5.3. Administrative Agent Has No Duty. The powers conferred on the
Administrative Agent hereunder are solely to protect its interest (on behalf of the Secured Parties) in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty on it to exercise any such powers. Except for reasonable care of any Collateral in its possession
and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral or responsibility for (a) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities,
tenders or other matters relative to any Investment Property and any other Pledged Property, whether or not the Administrative Agent has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters, or (b) taking any necessary steps to preserve rights
against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral. 

  
 Exhibit H – Form
of Pledge and Security Agreement 
 Page 24 of 48 

 SECTION 5.4. Reasonable Care. The Administrative Agent is required to exercise reasonable
care in the custody and preservation of any of the Collateral in its possession; provided, that the Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any of the Collateral (a) if
such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Administrative Agent accords its own personal property, or (b) if the Administrative Agent takes such action for that purpose as any Grantor reasonably requests in
writing at times other than upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default; provided, further, that failure of the Administrative Agent to comply with any such request at any time shall not in itself be deemed a
failure to exercise reasonable care. 
 ARTICLE VI 

REMEDIES 
 SECTION 6.1. Certain
Remedies. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing: 
 (a) The Administrative Agent may exercise in respect of the
Collateral, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral) and also may
(i) take possession of any Collateral not already in its possession without demand and without legal process, (ii) require any Grantor to, and each Grantor hereby agrees that it will, at its expense and upon request of the Administrative
Agent forthwith, assemble all or part of the Collateral as directed by the Administrative Agent and make it available to the Administrative Agent at a place to be designated by the Administrative Agent that is reasonably convenient to both parties,
(iii) subject to applicable law or agreements with landlords, bailees, or warehousemen, enter onto the property where any Collateral is located and take possession thereof without demand and without legal process, (iv) without notice
except as specified below, lease, license, sell or otherwise dispose of the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of the Administrative Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for
future delivery, and upon such other terms as the Administrative Agent may deem commercially reasonable. Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least ten (10) days’ prior notice to the
applicable Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the time of any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification; provided, however, that with respect to Collateral that is (x) perishable or
threatens to decline speedily in value, or (y) is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, no notice of sale or disposition need be given. For purposes of this Article VI, notice of any intended sale or disposition of any Collateral
may be given by first-class mail, hand-delivery (through a delivery service or otherwise), facsimile or email (to the extent not prohibited by applicable Legal Requirement), and shall be deemed to have been “sent” upon deposit in the U.S.
mail with adequate postage properly affixed upon delivery to an express delivery service or upon electronic submission through telephonic or internet services, as applicable at such address and numbers for the Borrower or the applicable Grantor set
forth in Schedule III of the Credit Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Administrative Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time
to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and/or such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. 

(b) Each Grantor agrees and acknowledges that a commercially reasonable disposition of Inventory, Equipment, Goods, Computer Hardware and
Software Collateral, or Intellectual Property Collateral may be by lease or license of, in addition to the sale of, such Collateral. Each Grantor further agrees and acknowledges that the following shall be deemed a reasonable commercial disposition:

  
 Exhibit H – Form
of Pledge and Security Agreement 
 Page 25 of 48 

 
(i) a disposition made in the usual manner on any recognized market, (ii) a disposition at the price current in any recognized market at the time of disposition, and (iii) a disposition
in conformity with reasonable commercial practices among dealers in the type of property subject to the disposition. 
 (c) All cash
Proceeds received by the Administrative Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, all or any part of the Collateral shall be applied by the Administrative Agent against, all or any part of the Secured Obligations
as set forth in Section 7.6 of the Credit Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to apply or pay over for application noncash proceeds of collection or enforcement unless (i) the failure to do so
would be commercially unreasonable, and (ii) the affected party has provided the Administrative Agent with a written demand to apply or pay over such noncash proceeds on such basis. 

(d) The Administrative Agent may do any or all of the following: (i) transfer all or any part of the Collateral into the name of the
Administrative Agent or its nominee, with or without disclosing that such Collateral is subject to the Lien hereunder, (ii) notify the parties obligated on any of the Collateral to make payment to the Administrative Agent of any amount due or
to become due thereunder, (iii) withdraw, or cause or direct the withdrawal, of all funds with respect to the Collateral Account, (iv) enforce collection of any of the Collateral by suit or otherwise, and surrender, release or exchange all
or any part thereof, or compromise or extend or renew for any period (whether or not longer than the original period) any obligations of any nature of any party with respect thereto, (v) endorse any checks, drafts, or other writings in the
applicable Grantor’s name to allow collection of the Collateral, (vi) take control of any Proceeds of the Collateral, or (vii) execute (in the name, place and stead of the applicable Grantor) endorsements, assignments, stock powers
and other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to all or any of the Collateral. 
 (e) Each Grantor that is or may become a
fee estate owner of property where any Collateral is located agrees and acknowledges that (i) Administrative Agent may remove the Collateral or any part thereof from such property in accordance with statutory law appertaining thereto without
objection, delay, hindrance or interference by such Grantor and in such case such Grantor will make no claim or demand whatsoever against the Collateral, (ii) it will (x) cooperate with Administrative Agent in its efforts to assemble
and/or remove all of the Collateral located on the such property; (y) permit Administrative Agent and its agents to enter upon such property and occupy the property at any or all times to conduct an auction or sale, and/or to inspect, audit,
examine, safeguard, assemble, appraise, display, remove, maintain, prepare for sale or lease, repair, lease, transfer, auction and/or sell the Collateral; and (z) not hinder Administrative Agent’s actions in enforcing its Lien in the
Collateral. Money damages may not be a sufficient remedy for a breach of this Security Agreement. In addition to all other remedies available at law or in equity, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to seek equitable relief, including
injunction and specific performance, without proof of actual damages. 
 (f) No such exercise of remedies by the Administrative Agent or
cure by the Administrative Agent of any Event of Default on any Grantor’s behalf shall operate as a waiver of any Secured Party’s rights with respect to such Event of Default or any other Event of Default. 

(g) The Administrative Agent may by appointment in writing appoint a receiver or receiver and manager (each herein referred to as the
“Receiver”) of the Collateral (which term when used in this Article VI shall include the whole or any part of the Collateral) and may remove or replace such Receiver from time to time or may institute proceedings in any court of competent
jurisdiction for the appointment of a Receiver of the Collateral; and the term “Administrative Agent” when used in this Section 6.1(g) shall include any Receiver so appointed and the agents, officers and employees of such Receiver; and the
Secured Parties and the Administrative Agent will not have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort, or otherwise) to any Grantor arising out of, related to or in connection with any act or omission of the Receiver.

 (h) Any Receiver shall be entitled to exercise all rights and powers of the Administrative Agent
hereunder. To the extent not prohibited by law, any Receiver shall for all purposes be deemed to be the agent of the Grantors and not of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties and, to the extent not prohibited by law, the Grantors shall be
solely responsible for the Receiver’s acts or omissions and remuneration. 
 SECTION 6.2. Compliance with Restrictions. Each
Grantor agrees that in any sale of any of the Collateral whenever an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to comply with any limitation or restriction in connection with such sale as
it may be advised by counsel is necessary in order to avoid any violation of applicable law (including compliance with such procedures as may restrict the number of prospective bidders and purchasers, require that such prospective bidders and
purchasers have certain qualifications, and restrict such prospective bidders and purchasers to Persons who will represent and agree that they are purchasing for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale of
such Collateral), or in order to obtain any required approval of the sale or of the purchaser by any Governmental Authority or official, and each Grantor further agrees that such compliance shall not result in such sale being considered or deemed
not to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner, nor shall the Administrative Agent be liable nor accountable to such Grantor for any discount allowed by the reason of the fact that such Collateral is sold in compliance with any such
limitation or restriction. 
 SECTION 6.3. Indemnity and Expenses. Each Grantor agrees to all of the terms and provisions of
Section 9.2 of the Credit Agreement applicable to it as a Credit Party. Section 9.2 of the Credit Agreement is incorporated herein by reference. 

SECTION 6.4. Warranties. The Administrative Agent may sell the Collateral without giving any warranties or representations as to the
Collateral. The Administrative Agent may disclaim any warranties of title or the like. Each Grantor agrees that this procedure will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral.

and the Parent, the “Grantors” and individually, a “Grantor”), and WELLS FARGO BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION (“Wells Fargo”), as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”) for
the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties (as defined in the Credit Agreement referred to herein).

may become Grantors under the Security Agreement by execution and delivery of an instrument in the form of this Supplement. The undersigned Subsidiary of the Parent (the “New Grantor”) is executing this Supplement in accordance with
the requirements of the Credit Agreement to become a Grantor under the Security Agreement. 
 D. [Furthermore, pursuant to the Credit

Agreement), to pledge the equity of such new Subsidiary. [Equity holder of new Subsidiary] (the “Existing Grantor”; and together with the New Grantor, each a “Specific Grantor” and, collectively, the
“Specific Grantors”), is executing this Supplement in accordance with the requirements of the Credit Agreement to supplement its Collateral under the Security Agreement.] 

Accordingly, the Administrative Agent and the [New Grantor][Specific Grantors] agree as follows: 

SECTION 1. [The Existing Grantor by its signature below (i) hereby agrees that, except as supplemented and renewed hereby, all of the

Existing Grantor hereby pledges to the Administrative Agent, and grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a continuing security interest in and lien on all of the Existing Grantor’s right, title and interest

with the same force and effect as if originally named therein as a Grantor and the New Grantor hereby agrees (a) to all the terms and provisions of the Security Agreement applicable to it as a Grantor thereunder and (b) represents and
warrants that the representations and warranties made by it as a Grantor thereunder are true and correct on and as of the date hereof. In furtherance of the foregoing, the New Grantor, as security for the payment and performance in full of the
Secured Obligations, does hereby create and grant to the Administrative Agent, its successors and assigns, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, their successors and assigns as provided in the Security Agreement, a continuing security interest in
and Lien on all of the New Grantor’s right, title and interest in and to the Collateral of the New Grantor. Each reference to a “Grantor” in the Security Agreement shall be deemed to include the New Grantor. The Security Agreement is
hereby incorporated herein by reference. 
 SECTION 2. [The New Grantor][Each Specific Grantor] represents and warrants to the
Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties that this Supplement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by it and constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms (subject to
applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject, as to enforceability, to equitable principles of general application (regardless of whether enforcement is sought
in a proceeding in equity or at law)). 
 SECTION 3. This Supplement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute an
original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Supplement shall become effective when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts of this Supplement that, when taken together, bear the
signatures of the [New Grantor][Specific Grantors] and the Administrative Agent. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Supplement by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed
counterpart of this Supplement. 
 SECTION 4. [The New Grantor][Each Specific Grantor] hereby agrees that the schedules attached to the
Security Agreement are hereby supplemented by the corresponding schedules attached to this Supplement. [The New Grantor][Each Specific Grantor] hereby represents and warrants that the information provided in the schedules attached hereto are true
and correct as of the date hereof. 
 SECTION 5. [The New Grantor][Each Specific Grantor] hereby expressly acknowledges and agrees to the
