3                                      Invitations to Apply for Options

 

3.1                            Subject to the limitations and conditions herein contained (including the Board’s determination referred to in Rule 2) and unless prohibited by law, the Board may, at any time during the period of 30 (or 42 days in the event that applications are scaled down under Rules 4.5 and 4.6) after any of the following:

3

 

issue invitations to all Eligible Employees or issue an invitation to the Trustee to apply for an Option on behalf of all such persons on the basis that respective invitations will be issued to such Eligible Employees as soon as it is practicable to do so. Invitations shall be in such form as the Board may from time to time determine but shall specify:

 

(i)                                  the date by which applications must be received by the Company;

 

(ii)                               whether the repayment to be made under the Related Savings Contract for the purposes of determining the number of Shares to be placed under the relevant Option shall be deemed to include the Notional Bonus; and

 

(iii)                            the limit, if any, on the number of Shares over which applications for Options will be accepted on that occasion as fixed by the Board pursuant to Rule 5.1.

 

3.2                            Any invitation to the Trustee shall be issued on the basis that the Trustee may apply for an Option over the cumulative total number of Shares for which all the Eligible Employees could apply and on the basis that, to the extent the Eligible Employees do not apply for Options over such total number of Shares, the Option shall lapse in respect of the balance of the Shares immediately following the date specified to Eligible Employees for returning the forms referred to in Rule 3.3.1.

 

3.3                            Each invitation to an Eligible Employee shall be accompanied by or there shall be made available to each Eligible Employee:

 

3.3.1                  a form of application for an Option containing such provisions as may be prescribed by the Board including, without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing either (i), an authority for the contributions under the Related Savings Contract to be deducted from the Eligible Employee’s pay and remitted to the relevant Savings Authority on his behalf, or the Eligible Employee’s agreement to an alternative arrangement to make such contributions; (ii) and an authorisation for appropriate amendments to be made to the forms mentioned in this Rule 3.3 having regard to the requirements of Rules 4.6 and 4.7; and

 

3.3.2                  where appropriate a form of application to enter into a Savings Contract with and subject to the rules of such Savings Authority as the Board may determine stating the amount of the monthly contributions which the Eligible Employee wishes to pay thereunder (to be completed by the Eligible Employee).

 

3.4                            Each Eligible Employee who wishes to apply for an Option must return all such forms as are referred to in Rule 3.3 as instructed duly completed by no later than the date specified in the invitation failing which the invitation shall be deemed to have been declined.

 

3.5                            If the Board so determines, an Eligible Employee may apply for more than one Option in response to any invitation. If he does so, then he shall be treated for the purposes of Rules 4.5, 4.6 and 4.7 as having applied for a single Option.

 

4                                      Grant of Options

 

4.1                            Subject as hereinafter provided, the Board shall on a date not later than 30 days (or 42 days in the event that any such scaling down as is referred to in this Rule 4 is necessary) of the date specified by the Board for the return of the application forms grant the Options to the Eligible Employees or the Option to the Trustee in respect of the Eligible Employees. No payment will be required for the grant of an Option.

 

4

 

4.2                            Where an Option is granted to the Trustee, the number of Shares over which it shall be granted shall be the cumulative total number of Shares for which all the relevant Eligible Employees may have applied (subject to any scaling down which is necessary in accordance with Rule 4.6 or Rule 4.7) on the basis that, to the extent the Eligible Employees do not apply for options over such total number of Shares, the Option shall lapse in respect of the balance of the Shares immediately following the date specified for returning the forms referred to in Rule 3.3. The Option granted to the Trustee shall lapse in respect of the Shares over which Eligible Employees make applications for Options immediately following the grant of the Options to the Eligible Employees.

 

4.3                            Where an Option is granted to the Trustee, the subsequent grant of Options to the Eligible Employees shall be made within 30 days of the date specified to them for returning the forms referred to in Rule 3.3. No payment will be required for the grant of an Option.

 

4.4                            Subject as provided in Rules 4.4, 4.6 and 4.7, the number of Shares over which an Option shall be granted to each Eligible Employee shall be the nearest whole number (rounding down) obtained by dividing the Sterling equivalent (as determined by reference to the exchange rate applied at the time of invitations or invitation under Rule 3.1) of the aggregate of the contributions repayable under the Related Savings Contract on the Bonus Date and the Notional Bonus where the Board has specified, in accordance with Rule 3.1, that it is to be included for determining the number of Shares, by the Exercise Price.

 

4.5                            If the total number of Shares over which Options would otherwise be granted to Eligible Employees or (as appropriate) an Option would otherwise be granted to the Trustee on any Date of Grant would result in any limit imposed by the Board pursuant to Rule 5.1 in relation to that Date of Grant or any other limit imposed by Rule 5 to be exceeded, the Board must scale down the applications by Eligible Employees or the application by the Trustee (which, for the purposes of this Rule 4.5 and Rule 4.6, shall be treated as being the number of applications as represents the total number of Eligible Employees on whose behalf the Trustee has made its application) in accordance with the provisions set out in Rule 4.6 or on some other basis as may be determined by the Board and in the case of scaling down of the application by the Trustee there shall be an equivalent scaling down of the applications made by the Eligible Employees .

 

4.6                            The Board shall take steps to reduce each application by taking the following steps in the order in which they appear:

 

4.6.1                  each application will be reduced either by the same monetary amount or in proportion to the nearest multiple of £1 or its Local Currency Equivalent but no application may be reduced below such sum as may be the Minimum Monthly Contribution or its Local Currency Equivalent; and

 

4.6.2                  each application will be deemed to be an application for a Savings Contract under which the Notional Bonus will not be taken into account for the purposes of determining the number of Shares over which an Option is to be granted.

 

4.7                            If following the operation of Rule 4.6 above the number of Shares over which the Option would otherwise be granted on the Date of Grant would still exceed any of the relevant limits referred to in Rule 5, the Board may either (i) not grant the Option or (ii) in the case of any Date of Grant other than the first under the Plan grant Options to such of the Eligible Employees, or grant the Option to the Trustee in respect of such of the Eligible

 

5

 

Employees, as appropriate, who have never previously been granted Options or in relation to whom the Trustee has never previously been granted an Option on the basis that there are no other Eligible Employees and on the basis also that where the Option has initially been granted to the Trustee the invitations will be issued and Options granted only to the Eligible Employees in respect of whom the Trustee has been initially granted the Option.

 

4.8                            As soon as practicable after the Date of Grant (to the Trustee and/or the Eligible Employees, as appropriate), option certificates shall be issued in respect of all Options granted. An option certificate shall specify the number of Shares over which the Option has been granted, the Exercise Price, the Bonus Date and the Date of Grant and shall otherwise be in such form as the Board may from time to time determine. If an option certificate becomes worn out, defaced, destroyed or lost, it may be renewed on such evidence being provided and on such terms as the Board may require.

 

4.9                            No Option shall be granted other than to a person who at the Date of Grant is employed by a Participating Company (or to the Trustee on behalf of such a person).

 

4.10                     Subject to Rule 7.3, an Option granted to an Eligible Employee shall be personal to him and neither such Option nor any rights or interests of a Participant under the Plan shall be the subject of any disposal, assignment, charge or other dealing by such Participant.

 

5                                      Limitations on the size and duration of the Plan

 

5.1                            On or before the date upon which invitations are issued to Eligible Employees or an invitation is issued to the Trustee on any occasion the Board may determine a limit on the number of Shares over which applications for Options will be accepted on that occasion.

 

5.2                            The nominal amount of Shares over which the Board may grant Options on any date shall be limited so that it does not exceed the limit set out in Rule 5.3.  This limitation only applies to Options which are to be satisfied (directly or indirectly) by the issue of new Shares or the transfer of treasury Shares.

 

5.3                            The limit is 10 per cent of the nominal amount of the Company’s Equity Share Capital on the day preceding the Date of Grant less the aggregate of the nominal amounts of:

 

5.3.1                  Shares allocated in respect of awards granted within the previous 10 years under any employee share scheme; and

 

5.3.2                  Shares remaining to be allocated in respect of awards granted on the same date or within the previous 10 years under any employee share scheme; and

 

5.3.3                  Shares allocated on the same date or within the previous 10 years under any employee share scheme otherwise than in respect of an award.

 

5.4                            For purposes of Rule 5:

 

5.4.1                  “allocate” means the issue of new Shares or the transfer of treasury Shares in satisfaction (directly or indirectly) of a person’s rights under an award;

 

5.4.2                  an “award” means any right to acquire or receive Shares whether conditional or unconditional and whether or not for payment;

 

6

 

5.4.3                  an “employee share scheme” means any scheme for employees of the Group which has been approved by the Company or Reckitt Benckiser plc (registered in England under no. 527217) in general meeting;

 

5.4.4                  “treasury Shares” has the same meaning as in Chapter 6 of the Companies Act 2006;

 

5.4.5                  no account will be taken of Shares acquired by an employee or former employee (or the personal representatives of such a person) where the Shares are acquired for a price equal to their market value at or about the date of acquisition and the cost of those Shares is borne by (or by the estate of) the employee or former employee;

 

5.4.6                  subject to Rule 5.4.7, no account will be taken of an award if and to the extent to which the Board considers that it will be satisfied by the transfer of existing Shares other than treasury Shares;

 

5.4.7                  any Shares allocated or remaining to be allocated to the trustee of any trust which were used or which are to be used to satisfy awards granted under an employee share scheme must be treated as having been allocated or as remaining to be allocated in respect of those awards unless the Shares were acquired by the trustee pursuant to a rights issue or other opportunity offered to the trustee in respect of Shares, other than Shares previously allocated to it; and

 

5.4.8                  where an award was granted in consideration of the release by the holder of an award previously granted to him under an employee share scheme, then the earlier award shall be ignored and the later award shall be deemed to have been granted at the same time as the earlier award.

 

5.5                            Where an individual is granted two options on terms that the exercise of one will automatically result in a reduction to the extent to which the other may be exercised and vice versa, then for the purposes of this Rule 5 it shall only be necessary to take into account that number of Shares which could be acquired in respect of those options having regard to those terms.

 

5.6                            No Option shall be granted under the Plan after 30 November, 2024.

 

6                                      Limitation on Individual Participants

 

6.1                            The contribution payable by a Participant in any month under his Related Savings Contract when added to the contribution payable in that month under any other Savings Contract entered into by him at an earlier date (whether under the Plan or the UK Plan) shall not exceed £500 or such greater sum determined by the Board or its equivalent by reference to the Local Currency Equivalent in respect of contributions being made under Savings Contracts entered into under the Plan.

 

6.2                            The contribution payable by a Participant in any month under his Related Savings Contract shall not be less than the Local Currency Equivalent of the Minimum Monthly Contribution.

 

6.3                            The relevant day for determining the Local Currency Equivalent for the purposes of this Rule 6 in respect of Savings Contracts entered into under the Plan shall be determined by the Board but shall be at or about the time of the invitations or invitation under Rule 3.1.

7.1                            Save as provided in this Rule 7 and Rule 8 and subject to Rule 11.2, an Option shall first be exercisable on the Bonus Date of the Related Savings Contract.

 

7.2                            Subject to any other provision in this Rule 7 or Rule 8 providing for the Option to lapse at any earlier time, an Option shall lapse upon the expiry of six months after the Bonus Date of the Related Savings Contract notwithstanding any other provision of this Rule 7 (other than Rule 7.3) or Rule 8.

 

7.3                            If a Participant dies:

 

7.3.1                  before the Bonus Date of the Related Savings Contract, any Option then held by him shall, subject to Rule 10.2, and any relevant restriction under the laws or regulations of any jurisdiction be exercisable by his personal representatives (or the equivalent in any jurisdiction) for a period of 12 months from the date of his death; or

 

7.3.2                  within a period of six months after the Bonus Date of the Related Savings Contract, any Option then held by him shall, subject to Rule 10.2 and any relevant restriction under the laws or regulations of any jurisdiction, be exercisable by his personal representatives (or the equivalent in any jurisdiction) within 12 months of the Bonus Date;

 

and at the expiry of either such period the Option shall lapse.

 

7.4                            If a Participant ceases to hold an office or employment by virtue of which he was an Eligible Employee as a result of:

 

7.4.1                  his injury, ill-health or disability; or

 

7.4.2                  his redundancy (and for these purposes the Board shall determine whether a Participant has been made redundant but may, in making such determination, seek the advice of the relevant Participating Company employing the Participant in relation to the applicability of redundancy laws in the particular jurisdiction of the relevant Participating Company); or

 

7.4.3                  his retirement; or

 

7.4.4                  the undertaking or the part thereof in which he works being transferred to a transferee which is neither a Participating Company, an associated company (within the meaning of paragraph 47 of Schedule 3 to the Act) of the Company nor a company of which the Company has Control,

 

he may, subject to Rule 8 and Rule 10.2, exercise any Option then held by him during the period of six months from the date of such cessation and at the expiry of such period his Option shall, subject to Rule 7.3, lapse.

 

7.5                            If the Company ceases to have Control of any company in which a Participant holds the office or employment as a result of which he was an Eligible Employee, he shall thereupon be deemed to have ceased to hold such office or employment and any Option then held by him shall, subject to Rule 8 and Rule 11.2, be exercisable for a period of six months from the date of such cessation and at the expiry of such period shall, subject to Rule 7.3, lapse.

 

7.6                            If, other than in the circumstances described in Rules 7.3 and 7.4 , a Participant ceases for whatever reason to hold the office or employment by virtue of which he was an

 

8

 

Eligible Employee any Option then held by such Participant shall lapse at the date of such cessation provided always that for the purposes of this Rule 7.6 only where a Participant has ceased to hold such an office or employment due to maternity leave and in circumstances such that she has a right to return to work she shall be deemed not to have ceased to hold such an office or employment until she is no longer capable of exercising a right to return to work.

 

7.7                            If a Participant gives notice to the relevant Savings Authority that he intends to stop paying contributions under his Related Savings Contract or he misses any monthly contribution due under the Related Savings Contract then, unless the relevant Option is then exercisable under this Rule 7 or Rule 8, it shall thereupon lapse.

 

7.8                            In the event of any assignment, charge or other dealing with or disposal, purported or otherwise, of an Option or any of his rights or interests under the Plan by a Participant contrary to the provisions of Rule 4.12, such Option shall automatically lapse.

 

7.9                            Participation in the Plan by an Eligible Employee or a Participant is a matter entirely separate from, and shall not affect, any pension rights or entitlements which he may have and from his terms of employment and in particular (but without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing) if a Participant shall for any reason cease to be an Eligible Employee or a Participant or his Option shall lapse, he shall not be entitled to any compensation (including, without limitation, any compensation in any claim for damages for breach of any contract of employment) from the Company or any Subsidiary or any associated company (within the meaning of paragraph 47 of Schedule 3 to the Act) of the Company or any company of which the Company has Control by reference to his rights granted under the Plan or the benefits capable of being received under the Plan or for any loss or diminution in value thereof.

 

7.10                     For the purposes of Rules 7.4, 7.5 and 7.6 no person shall be treated as ceasing to hold an office or employment by virtue of which he was an Eligible Employee until he ceases to hold an office or employment in the Company or any associated company of the Company (within the meaning that this expression bears in paragraph 47(1) of Schedule 3 to the Act) or any company under the Control of the Company. But if a Participant holds an office or employment on the Bonus Date with a company which is not a Participating Company but which is:

 

7.10.1           an associated company (within the meaning that this expression bears in paragraph 47(1) of Schedule 3 to the Act) of the Company; or

 

7.10.2           a company which is under the Control of the Company,

 

he may, subject to Rule 11.2, exercise his Option in the period of six months starting with the Bonus Date and, subject to Rule 7.3, at the expiry of that period his Option shall lapse.

 

8                                      Changes in the control of the Company and Liquidation

 

8.1                            Subject to Rule 8.5, if any person (either alone or together with any person acting in concert with him) obtains Control of the Company as a result of making:

 

8.1.1                  a general offer to acquire the whole of the ordinary share capital (as defined in Section 1119 of the Taxes Act) of the Company (or such part thereof as is not already owned by the offeror and/or any person acting in concert with the offeror) which is made on condition such that if it is satisfied the person making

 

9

 

the offer (together with any persons acting in concert with him) will have Control of the Company; or

 

8.1.2                  a general offer to acquire all the Shares of the Company,

 

the Board shall give notice thereof to all Participants as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter and thereupon each Participant may, subject to Rule 11.2, exercise any Option then held by him within the six months following the time when the person making the offer (together with any persons acting in concert with him) has obtained Control of the Company and any condition subject to which the offer was made has been satisfied provided that, if under any of the provisions of Rule 7 or Rule 8.3 that Option lapses at an earlier time, the Option shall cease to be exercisable after that time notwithstanding this Rule 8.1.

 

8.2                            Subject to Rule 8.5, if under Section 899 of the Companies Act 2006 the Court sanctions a compromise or arrangement between the Company and its members, the Board shall give notice thereof to all Participants as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter and thereupon each Participant may, subject to Rule 11.2, exercise any Option within 6 months of the Court sanctioning such compromise or arrangement provided that, if under any of the provisions of Rule 7 that Option lapses at an earlier time, the Option shall cease to be exercisable after that time notwithstanding this Rule 8.2. Upon the compromise or arrangement becoming effective, all Options shall lapse.

 

8.3                            If any person becomes bound or entitled to require Shares under Chapter 3 of Part 28 of the Companies Act 2006 (or closely comparable overseas legislation) any unexercised Options may, subject to Rule 11.2, be exercised at any time when that person remains so bound or entitled and will lapse when that person ceases to be so bound or entitled provided that, if under any of the provisions of Rule 7 an Option lapses at an earlier date, the Option shall cease to be exercisable after that time notwithstanding Rule 8.3.

 

8.4                            Subject to Rule 8.5, if the Company passes a resolution for the voluntary winding up of the Company, any outstanding Option may be exercised within 60 days of the passing of the resolution after which, to the extent not exercised, it will lapse.

 

8.5                            If:

 

8.5.1                  the events referred to in Rules 8.1, 8.2, 8.3 or 8.4 are part of an arrangement which will mean that the Company will be under the Control of another company; and

 

8.5.2                  the persons who owned Shares in the Company immediately before the change of Control will immediately afterwards own at least 50% of the shares in that other company; and

 

8.5.3                  Participants to be offered substitute options under Rule 9,

 

then the Board may decide that those Participants who hold Options which are not exercisable otherwise than under Rule 8 may not be exercised.

 

9                                      Exchange of Options on a Takeover

 

9.1                            Notwithstanding the provisions of Rule 8, if any company (the “Acquiring Company”) obtains Control of the Company or becomes bound or entitled to acquire shares in the Company within any of the sets of circumstances specified in Rules 8.1, 8.2 and 8.3, a Participant may at any time within the period specified in those Rules, by agreement

 

10

 

with the Acquiring Company release his Option (the “Old Option”) in consideration of the grant to him of a new option (the “New Option”) which is equivalent to the Old Option (by virtue of satisfying the requirements of paragraph 39 of Schedule 3 to the Act) but relates to shares in a different company (whether the Acquiring Company itself or some other company falling within paragraph (b) or (c) of paragraph 18 of Schedule 3 to the Act).

 

9.2                            The Board may determine that a Participant will be deemed to have agreed to the release of his Old Option in return for the grant of a New Option under Rule 9 in either or both of the following cases:

 

9.2.1                  where Rule 8.5 applies to the Old Option (and it does not therefore become exercisable); and

 

9.2.2                  where the Participant has chosen not to exercise his Option and the Option would otherwise lapse under the relevant part of Rule 8.

 

9.3                            Where the “New Options” are granted pursuant to Rule 9.1 they should be regarded for the purposes of the subsequent application of the provisions of the Plan as having been granted at a time when the corresponding Old Options were granted and, with effect from the date on which the New Options are granted:

 

9.3.1                  save for the definition of “Participating Company in Rule 1, references to the “Company” (including the definition in Rule 1) shall be construed as being references to the Acquiring Company or such other company to whose shares the New Option relates;

 

9.3.2                  references to “Shares” (including the definition in Rule 1) shall be construed as being references to shares in the Acquiring Company or shares in such other company to which the New Options relate but references to Participating Company shall continue to be construed as if references to the Company were references to [Indivior];

 

9.3.3                  the Related Savings Contract made in connection with the Old Option has been made in connection with New Option; and

 

9.3.4                  the Bonus Date in relation to the New Option was the same as in relation to the Old Option.

 

10                               Variation of Capital

 

10.1                     In the event of any capitalisation or rights issue by the Company, or any consolidation, subdivision or reduction of the share capital of the Company or any other variation of its share capital, the number and the nominal amount of Shares subject to any Option and the Exercise Price may be adjusted by the Board in such manner as it may determine to be appropriate.

 

10.2                     Any adjustment made pursuant to this Rule shall be made on the basis that the aggregate Exercise Price originally payable by a Participant on the exercise of his Option in full shall not be materially altered.

 

10.3                     No adjustment shall be made to the extent that it would result in a Share being issued at less than its nominal value or cause the Shares subject to the Plan to cease to satisfy the conditions of paragraphs 18 to 22 (inclusive) of Schedule 3 to the Act.

 

11

 

11                               Procedure for exercise of Options and Listing

 

11.1                     Subject to Rule 11.2, where an Option is exercisable under the provisions of the Plan, a Participant may exercise it (subject to any Local Limit) in whole or, provided that the amount payable on exercise is not less than the lowest of (i) £200, (ii) the amount payable on the exercise of the Option to the maximum extent permitted by the Rules at that time and (iii) any applicable Local Limit, in part.

 

11.2                     This Rule shall apply:

 

11.2.1           when an Option becomes exercisable under any Rule of the Plan (except Rule 8.4 or Rule 7.7) unless:

 

(i)                                  either prior to such Option becoming exercisable or within 14 days (or, in relation to Rule 8, such lesser number of days as the Board shall determine and notify to the Participants) of such Option becoming exercisable (or where this is not feasible such later date as may be determined by the Company) the Participant notifies the Company that he wishes to exercise the Option utilising the repayment under the Related Savings Contract in accordance with Rule 11.5 (by giving notice in writing to the Company in the form prescribed by the Board); or

 

(ii)                               in relation to an event falling within Rule 8, a Participant is deemed to have elected to release his Option in exchange for the grant of a new option under Rule 9.2;

 

11.2.2           when an Option becomes exercisable under Rule 7.7 if either prior to such Option becoming exercisable or within 14 days of such Option becoming exercisable the Participant notifies the Company in writing that he wishes this Rule to apply;

 

11.2.3           when an Option is not capable of being exercised due to any relevant restriction under the laws or regulations of any jurisdiction when this rule shall apply automatically in respect of the relevant Option which the Participant is not able to exercise due to such restriction; and

 

11.2.4           when an Option is exercised by a Participant in part only in order to comply with any relevant Local Limit when this Rule shall apply automatically in respect of such part of the Option as the Participant is not able to exercise due to such limit and provided there are sufficient Shares remaining under the unexercised part of the Option in order for a resulting benefit to be provided to the Participant, and

 

provided that the market value of a Share (as derived from the Daily Official List of the London Stock Exchange) on the day of deemed exercise is greater than the Exercise Price.

 

11.3                     Where Rule 11.2 applies:

 

11.3.1           by virtue of Rules 11.2.1 or 11.2.2  the Participant shall be deemed to have exercised his Option on the day of deemed exercise and instructed the Company’s brokers to sell as many Shares as are necessary to obtain the funds due on exercise in full of the Option together with such amount (if any) as is required under Rule 11.11 and to account to the Company for the net proceeds of sale, such proceeds to be applied in payment of the aggregate Exercise Price and the amount (if any) due under Rule 11.11. The balance of the Shares under

 

12

 

the Option shall be passed on to or for the benefit of the relevant Participant. Any sale proceeds remaining shall be applied towards the costs of administering the Plan;

 

11.3.2           by virtue of Rules 11.2.3 or 11.2.4, the Participant shall be deemed to have exercised his Option or such part of his Option (as applicable) as he has not been able to actually exercise under Rule 11.5, on the day of deemed exercise, and instructed the Company’s brokers to sell all of his Shares.  Such amount of the proceeds as are necessary to obtain the funds due on exercise of the Option together with such amount (if any) as is required under Rule 11.11 shall be accounted to the Company , such proceeds to be applied in payment of the aggregate Exercise Price and the amount (if any) due under Rule 11.11. The balance of the proceeds of sale shall be passed on to or for the benefit of the relevant Participant.

 

11.4                     The day of deemed exercise for the purposes of this Rule 11.3 is:

 

11.4.1           where Rule 11.3 applies by virtue of Rules 11.2.1, 11.2.2 or 11.2.3, where an Option is exercisable pursuant to Rule 7.1, the day after the end of the 14 day period referred to above and, where an Option is exercisable pursuant to any other Rule, either the day after the end of the 14 day (or lesser) period referred to above or, where the Participant has not completed 36 contributions under his Savings Contract and wishes to continue to save as long as possible and indicates this to the Company in writing prior to the end of such 14 day or lesser period, the last practicable date, as determined by the Board and notified to the Participant in writing, prior to his Option lapsing; and

 

11.4.2           where this Rule 11.3 applies by virtue of Rule 11.2.4, such date as may be selected by the Board which is as close to the date of actual exercise of the part of the Option which the Participant has been able to exercise under Rule 11.5 as is practicable.

 

11.5                     Where a Participant wishes to exercise his Option utilizing the repayment under the Related Savings Contract he shall do so by submitting a remittance for the whole of the amount payable on the exercise of the Option (being the product of the number of Shares in respect of which the Option is to be exercised and the Exercise Price applicable thereto) which amount shall be provided out of the repayment (including any interest) under the Related Savings Contract (or, if the Board so determines, an authority to obtain such repayment from the relevant Savings Authority). If such repayment is insufficient to acquire all the Shares in respect of which the Option is exercisable because of fluctuations in the exchange rate where the Participant has been saving in Local Currency, the Participant may provide additional funds to acquire all the Shares.

 

11.6                     Where a Participant wishes to exercise his Option utilizing the repayment under the Related Savings Contract, an Option shall be deemed to be exercised upon receipt by the Company of both the notice and the payment of the due exercise monies or, as the case may be, the appropriate authority except where the notice and payment or authority shall be sent by pre-paid post when the date of posting, as evidenced by the postmark on the envelope or in such other manner as shall be determined by the Board, shall be the date of exercise.

 

13

 

11.7                     If an Option is to be exercised in accordance with Rule 11.5 or deemed exercised in accordance with Rule 11.4 pursuant to any of the provisions of Rule 7 or 8 before the Bonus Date, then and in any such case the relevant Option shall be exercisable or deemed exercised only in respect of that number of Shares whose total Exercise Price can or could be satisfied out of the repayment (including any interest) payable under the Related Savings Contract as at the date of such exercise or deemed exercise subject to the Participant’s right to top up his savings in accordance with Rule 11.5 and where the Option is to be deemed exercised under Rule 11.5 it shall be assumed that he has topped up his savings in accordance with Rule 11.5.

 

11.8                     Subject to such consents or other required action of any competent authority under regulations or enactments for the time being in force as may be necessary and subject to compliance with the terms of the Option, the Company shall, within 30 days after the exercise or deemed exercise of any Option, either issue and allot to the Participant or at his direction the number of Shares due or procure the transfer to him or at his direction of those Shares. Shares issued and allotted pursuant to the Plan shall rank pari passu in all respects with the Shares in issue on the date of allotment, save as regards any rights attaching by reference to a record date which precedes that date.

 

11.9                     The Company shall make application to the UK Listing Authority for the admission to the Official List of all Shares allotted pursuant to the exercise or deemed exercise of any Option and to the London Stock Exchange for permission to trade in those Shares provided that Shares are then listed on the UK Listing Authority.

 

11.10              Subject to the provisions of Rule 11.1 and 11.2, if an Option is exercised or deemed exercised in respect of part only of the Shares comprised therein, the Option in respect of the balance shall lapse.

 

11.11              The Company, any employing company or the trustee of any employee benefit trust may make such arrangements as it considers necessary to meet any liability to taxation, duties, social security contributions or other amounts in respect of Options or otherwise in connection with a person’s participation in the Plan, whether the liability is a liability of, or is payable by, the Participant, the Company, the employing company or the trustee and whether such liability arises before or after the adoption of this Rule.  These arrangements may include (without limitation) a reduction in the number of Shares subject to an Option and/or the exercise of an Option on behalf of a Participant and/or the sale on behalf of the Participant of any of the Shares to which he is entitled under the Plan and the retention of the sale proceeds to meet the liability.  References to social security contributions include anything in a jurisdiction outside the United Kingdom which, in the opinion of the Board, is reasonably comparable to social security contributions.

 

12                               Availability of Authorised Capital

 

The Company shall keep available sufficient unissued Share capital, or otherwise ensure that there are sufficient Shares available, to satisfy all outstanding Options.

 

13                               Administration and amendment of the Plan

 

13.1                     The Board shall have power from time to time to make and vary such regulations (not being inconsistent with the Plan) for the implementation and administration of the Plan as it thinks fit.

 

14

 

13.2                     The Company shall have power from time to time exercisable by resolution of the Board to agree that any Subsidiary over which the Company has Control shall become a Participating Company for the purposes of the Plan. Any such Subsidiary shall cease to be a Participating Company as from such date as the Board may by resolution determine and shall be deemed not to be a Participating Company as from the date on which it ceases to be a Subsidiary or, if earlier, as from the date on which the Company ceases to have Control of the Subsidiary.

 

13.3                     In the event of any dispute as to whether a person is or is not an Eligible Employee or as to any rights or obligations of any person hereunder or any question concerning the construction or effect hereto or any other question in connection with the Plan, the Board shall determine the same (other than in the case of a matter to be certified by the auditors in accordance with these Rules) and such determination shall be final and binding on all persons.

 

13.4                     This Plan may be altered in any respect by resolution of the Board provided that:

 

13.4.1           except to the extent that such alteration is necessary or advisable to give effect to any increase in the maximum monthly contribution as permitted by Rule 6 or would be subject to Rule 13.5 below, the definition of “Adoption Date” and the provisions of Rules 2, 4.5, 4.12, 5 , 6, 7, 8, 10, 11.8 and this Rule 13 shall not be altered to the advantage of Eligible Employees or Participants except with the prior sanction of the Company in general meeting; and

 

13.4.2           subject to Rule 13.5, no alteration shall be made which would affect adversely any of the subsisting rights of Participants except with the consent of Participants who, if they exercised their Options in full, would thereby become entitled to not less than three-quarters of all the Shares which would fall to be allotted upon exercise in full of all outstanding Options.

 

13.5                       The Board may make amendments to the Plan to take account of any changes to any relevant law or to get or keep favourable tax, exchange control or regulatory treatment for Participants or any Participating Company including without limitation, the adoption of sub-plans with particular rules to apply for specific jurisdictions.

 

13.6                     Written notice of any alteration made in accordance with Rule 13.4 which affects the rights of Participants shall be given to all Participants and to the Trustee.

 

13.7                     Subject to Rule 8 and any requirement in any jurisdiction of any Participating Company to provide documentation or information to Eligible Employees or Participants, the Company shall not be obliged to provide Eligible Employees or Participants with copies of any notices, circulars or other documents sent to holders of Shares.

 

13.8                     The cost of the preparation and the operation of the Plan shall be borne by the Company.

 

14                               Errors and Omissions

 

The Company, the relevant Participating Company and where appropriate the Trustee may do all such acts and things as they may agree to rectify any error or omission, including any error or omission as a result of which any Eligible Employee is not accounted for on the grant of Options or an Option to the Trustee notwithstanding that such action may fall outside the time limits or otherwise conflict with the provisions of the

 

15

 

Rules provided always that the limits set out in Rules 5 and 6 would not thereby be exceeded.

 

15                               Termination

 

15.1                     The Company by resolution of the Board may at any time suspend or terminate the operation of the Plan and in such event no further Options will be granted for the time being or permanently but in all other respects the provisions of the Plan shall remain in force.

 

15.2                     The Plan will terminate on 30 November, 2014. On termination, no further Options may be granted but such termination shall be without prejudice to any accrued rights in existence at the date thereof.

 

16                               Notices

 

16.1                     Save as otherwise provided in this Scheme any notice or communication to be given to any Eligible Employee or Participant may be:

 

16.1.1           delivered by electronic mail and it shall be deemed to have been received upon electronic confirmation of such delivery; or

 

16.1.2           personally delivered or sent by ordinary post to his last known address and where a notice or communication is sent by post it shall be deemed to have been received 48 hours after the same was put into the post properly addressed and stamped.

 

Share certificates and other communications sent by post will be sent at the risk of the Eligible Employee or Participant concerned and neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries nor the Trustee shall have any liability whatsoever to any such person in respect of any notification, document, share certificate or other communication so given, sent or made.

 

16.2                     Any notice to be given to the Company or the Trustee shall be delivered or sent to the Company at its registered office, marked for the attention of the Company Secretary, and shall be effective upon receipt.  The Board may make other arrangements to receive notices.

 

17                               Governing Law

 

This Plan and all Options granted under it shall be governed by and construed in accordance with English law.

2.1                            Save as hereinafter specified, all the terms and provisions of the Plan shall apply mutatis mutandis to the grant of SARs under this Schedule 1.

 

2.2                            Under Rule 7 of the Plan the words “Bonus Date of the Related Savings Contract” shall be substituted with the words “Relevant Repayment Date” when referring to the exercise and lapse of a SAR.

 

2.3                            The exercise of a SAR in accordance with Rules 7 and 8 of the Plan will be to the extent described in Rule 7 of this Schedule 1 below.

 

3                                      Invitations to apply for SARs

 

3.1                            Subject to the limitations and conditions herein contained (including the Board’s determination referred to in Rule 2 of the Plan) and unless prohibited by law, the Board may at any time within the period of time during the period of 30 (or 42 days in the event that applications are scaled down under Rules 4.5 and 4.6 of the Plan) after any of the following;

 

3.1.1                  the announcement by the Company of its results for any period or the issue by the Company of any prospectus, listing particulars or other document containing equivalent information relating to Shares; or

 

17

 

3.1.2                  a day on which an announcement is made of a new prospectus for certified SAYE savings arrangements (within the meaning of section 703(1) of the Income Tax (Trading and Other Income) Act 2005); or

 

3.1.3                  a day on which an announcement is made of amendments to be made to the Act (so far as those changes affect savings - related share option plans under the Act) or a day on which any such amendments come into force; or

 

3.1.4                  any general meeting of the Company’s shareholders; or

 

3.1.5                  any day on which they resolve that exceptional circumstances exist which justify the grant of Options,

 

issue an invitation to all persons who will be or were Eligible Employees. Invitations shall be in such form as the Board may from time to time determine but shall specify:

 

(i)                                  the date by which applications must be received by the Company;

 

(ii)                               that if an Eligible Employee wishes to accept an invitation he must agree to enter into a Savings Contract;

 

(iii)                            whether the repayment to be made under the Related Savings Contract for                                  the purposes of determining the number of Shares to which the relevant SAR relates shall be deemed to include the Notional Bonus and;

 

(iv)                           the limit, if any, on the number of Shares which may be contained in a Share Award as fixed by the Board pursuant to Rule 5.1 of the plan.

 

3.2                            Each invitation to an Eligible Employee shall be accompanied by or there shall be made available to each Eligible Employee:

 

3.2.1                  a form of application for an SAR, containing such provisions as may be prescribed by the Board, including

 

(i)                                  either an authority for the contributions under the Related Savings Contract to be deducted from the Eligible Employee’s pay and remitted to the relevant Savings Authority on his behalf or the Eligible Employee’s agreement to an alternative arrangement to make such contributions; and

 

(ii)                               an authorisation for appropriate amendments to be made to the forms mentioned in this Rule 3 having regard to the requirements of Rules 4.3 and 4.4 of this Schedule 1; and

 

3.2.2                  where appropriate, a form of application to enter into a Savings Contract with and subject to the rules of such Savings Authority as the Board may determine, stating the amount of the monthly contributions which the Eligible     Employee wishes to pay thereunder (to be completed by the Eligible Employee).

 

3.3                            Each Eligible Employee who wishes to apply for an SAR must return all such forms as are referred to in Rule 3.2 above as instructed, duly completed, by no later than the date specified by the Board, failing which the invitation shall be deemed to have been declined.

 

18

 

4                                      Grant of SARs

 

4.1                            Subject as hereinafter provided, the Board shall on a date not later than 30 days (or 42 days in the event that any such scaling down as is referred to in Rules 4.3 and 4.4 of this Schedule 1 is necessary) of the date specified by the Board for the return of the application forms, and following (or on the same day as) the grant of an SAR Option to the Trustee pursuant to Rule 5 of this Schedule 1, grant SARs to the Eligible Employees who have returned forms pursuant to Rule 3.3 of this Schedule 1. No payment will be required for the grant of any SAR.

 

4.2                            The formula for determining the number of Shares subject to a Share Award shall be as follows:

 

N = MSxM ÷ NSPx (ESP - NSP) ÷ ESP

 

Where: N is the number of Shares subject to a Share Award, rounded down to a whole number of Shares.

 

MS is the monthly level of savings of the Participant (converted into pounds Sterling using an exchange rate determined by the Board as at the time invitations are issued to Eligible Employees under Rule 3).

 

M is the number of monthly savings contributions made by the Participant under the Related Savings Contract and, if the Board has so determined, will be increased by the number of months representing the Notional Bonus. If the Participant makes less than 36 monthly contributions when M includes the Notional Bonus, then M shall be expressed as (M ÷ 36) x (36 + the Notional Bonus).

 

NSP is the “net Share price”, (expressed in pounds Sterling), being the Market Value of a Share (as determined by the Board) on the date of grant of the SAR, less a discount (as determined by the Board) of up to 20 per cent of such Market Value.

 

ESP is the “end Share price”, (expressed in pounds Sterling) being the Market Value of a Share (as determined by the Board) at the Relevant Repayment Date.

 

The number of Shares to be taken into account for the purposes of Rule 5 of this Schedule 1 and for the purposes of the limits in Rule 5 of the Plan shall be calculated as follows in respect of each Participant and shall be aggregated appropriately:

 

N = MSxM ÷ NSP

 

For the purposes of Rules 5 of this Schedule 1 and Rule 5 of the Plan, if the Board has determined that M shall include the Notional Bonus, M shall be deemed to be the sum of 36 and the Notional Bonus.

 

4.3                            If the application of the formula in Rule 4.2 above results in the number of Shares to which an SAR relates exceeding any maximum number of Shares which may be determined by the Board under Rule 5.1 of the Plan or results in the aggregate number of Shares exceeding any of the other limits in Rule 5 of the Plan, the Board may scale down such number of Shares pursuant to Rule 4.4 of this Schedule 1.

 

4.4                            The Board shall take steps to reduce each application by taking the following steps in the order in which they appear:

 

4.4.1                  each application to be granted an SAR will be reduced either by deeming the monthly savings contributions to be reduced by the same monetary amount or in proportion to the nearest multiple of £1 or its Local Currency Equivalent but no

 

19

 

monthly savings contribution may be deemed to be reduced below such sum as may be the Minimum Monthly Contribution or its Local Currency Equivalent; and

 

4.4.2                  each application will be deemed to be an application to be granted an SAR on the basis that the Notional Bonus will not be taken into account for the purposes of determining the number of Shares to which a SAR relates.

 

4.5                            If following the operation of Rule 4.4 above the number of Shares to which an SAR relates would still exceed any of the relevant limits referred to in Rule 5 of the Plan, the Board may decide not to grant the SAR.

 

4.6                            The Company shall, as soon as practicable after the Date of Grant, issue or cause to be issued certificates in respect of all SARs granted. Each certificate shall specify the number of Shares to which the SAR relates, the net Share price, the Relevant Repayment Date and the Date of Grant and shall otherwise be in such form as the Board may from time to time determine. If a certificate becomes worn out, defaced, destroyed or lost, it may be renewed on such evidence being provided and on such terms as the Board may require.

 

4.7                            No SAR shall be granted other than to a person who at the Date of Grant is an Eligible Employee.

 

4.8                            Subject to Rule 7.3 of the Plan, a SAR granted to an Eligible Employee shall be personal to him and neither such SAR nor any rights or interests of a Participant under this Plan shall be the subject of any disposal, assignment, charge or other dealing by such Participant.

 

5                                      Grant of SAR Options

 

5.1                            The Board shall grant an SAR Option to the Trustee, during the period specified in Rule 4.1 of this Schedule 1, over such number of Shares as is calculated pursuant to Rule 4.2 of this Schedule 1.

 

5.2                            No SAR Option shall be granted to the Trustee in respect of any person unless at the Date of Grant such person is an Eligible Employee.

 

5.3                            The Company shall issue a deed of option grant to the Trustee which shall be in such form as the Directors may from time to time determine and which shall include the following details:

 

5.3.1                  the name of each relevant Eligible Employee;

 

5.3.2                  the date of grant of the SAR Option;

 

5.3.3                  the price payable by the Trustee on the exercise of an SAR Option, which, in respect of each Share subject to SAR Option, shall equal the net Share price described in Rule 4.2 of this Schedule 1;

 

5.3.4                  the number of Shares subject to each SAR Option; and

 

5.3.5                  the duties and obligations of the Trustee with respect to any Share Awards and Cash Awards.

 

5.4                            Subject to the terms of the Plan, neither the SAR Option nor any rights or interests of the Trustee pursuant to such SAR Option shall be the subject of any disposal, assignment, charge or dealing by the Trustee.

 

20

 

5.5                            No payment shall be made in respect of the grant of an SAR Option.

 

6                                      Savings Contracts

 

6.1                            On a Relevant Repayment Date, the balance in the Participant’s Related Savings Contract (including any interest) shall be promptly paid to him.

 

6.2                            Provided that:

 

6.2.1                  the Participant is still an Eligible Employee at the Relevant Repayment Date and;

 

6.2.2                  the Participant has provided the Company with a letter or other evidence from the Savings Authority confirming the completion of 36 monthly savings contributions and closure of the Related Savings Contract,

 

the Participant may then exercise his SAR in accordance with Rule 7.1 and 7.2 of the Plan.

 

6.3                            If a Participant ceases to be an Eligible Employee for any reason before the Relevant Repayment Date, subject to Rule 7.11 of the Plan, the balance of the Related Savings Contract, as at the date of such cessation, shall be paid to the Participant or (where appropriate) the Participant’s personal representatives or the equivalent in any jurisdiction and, where relevant, no further amounts will be deducted from the Participant’s pay.

 

6.4                            If the Participant ceases to be an Eligible Employee for a reason provided in Rule 7.3, 7.4 or 7.5 of the Plan or wishes to exercise his SAR in circumstances in which Rules 7.7 or 8 of the Plan apply, or to make an election under Rule 8.4 of the Plan, he (or, where appropriate, his personal representatives or the equivalent in any jurisdiction) must first provide the Company with a letter or other evidence from the Savings Authority confirming the completion of the relevant number of monthly savings contributions and closure of the Related Savings Contract.

 

7                                      Changes in the control of the Company and Liquidation

 

7.1                            Rules 8.1, 8.2, 8.3, 8.5 and 9 of the Plan shall be applicable to this Schedule 1.

 

7.2                            Rule 8.4 of the Plan shall be replaced by the following wording:

 

“Subject to Rule 8.5, if an effective resolution is passed for the voluntary winding-up of the Company, the Company shall give notice thereof to all Participants and thereupon each Participant may, subject to any provision in the Rules providing for an SAR to lapse at an earlier time and to Rule 5.4, forthwith and until the expiry of 60 days thereafter elect by notice in writing to the Company to be treated as if he had, immediately before the passing of the winding-up resolution, exercised any SAR then held by him. Where a Participant makes an election in respect of his SAR, subject to Rule 9.6 of this Schedule 1, he shall be entitled in the liquidation to such sum as equals the Market Value (calculated pursuant to Rule 9.2 of this Schedule 1) of the number of Shares which would have been subject to any Share Award to which he would otherwise have been entitled, calculated pursuant to Rule 8 and the SAR shall immediately lapse.”

 

7.3                            Save as mentioned in Rule 7.2 of this Schedule 1, all SARs shall automatically lapse in the event of an effective resolution being passed or an order being made for the winding-up of the Company.

 

21

 

7.4                            The Board shall give notice to the Trustee of any event described in this Rule 7, at the same time as notice is given to all Participants. The Trustee shall exercise the SAR Option(s) held by it in respect of those Participants who wish to exercise SAR(s) within the appropriate time period(s) specified in this Rule 7, or shall take such action as is necessary, pursuant to the deed of option grant, to deliver any sum to which a Participant becomes entitled under Rule 8.4 of the Plan as amended in Rule 7.2 above. To the extent that an SAR Option relates to an SAR which lapses pursuant to this Rule 7, such SAR Option will immediately lapse.  This is subject to Rules 8.5 and 9 of the Plan under which the Participant may elect (or be deemed to have elected) to release his SAR(s) in return for the grant of a new SAR(s) in which case the Trustee may not exercise the corresponding SAR Option(s) held by it.

 

8                                      Share Award Calculation on the exercise of a SAR

 

Any Share Award received by a Participant on the exercise of an SAR under Rules 7.3, 7.4,7.5, 7.7 and 8 of the Plan shall be calculated as follows:

 

N = MSxX ÷ NSPx (ESP-NSP) ÷ ESP

 

Where: N is the number of Shares contained in a Share Award, rounded down to a whole number of Shares.

 

MS is the monthly level of savings of a Participant, (converted into pounds Sterling using an exchange rate determined by the Board as at the time invitations are issued to Eligible Employees under Rule 3 of the Plan).

 

X is the number of monthly savings contributions made by the Participant as at the date of death or cessation of office or employment under Rule 7 of the Plan, or the date on which the Board gives notice to Participants under Rule 8 of the Plan (as appropriate), which, if the Board has determined that M (as defined in Rule 4.2) includes the Notional Bonus, shall be expressed as ((X ÷ 36) x (36 + the Notional Bonus).

 

NSP is the “net Share price”, (expressed in pounds Sterling) being the Market Value of a Share (as determined by the Board) on the date of grant of the SAR, less a discount (as determined by the Board) of up to 20 per cent of such Market Value.

 

ESP is the “end Share price”, (expressed in pounds Sterling) being the Market Value of a Share (as determined by the Board) at the date of death or cessation of office or employment under Rule 7 of the Plan, or the date on which the Board gives notice to Participants under Rule 8 of the Plan (as appropriate).

 

9                                      Procedure for exercise of SARS and Listing

 

9.1                            A SAR shall be deemed to be exercised upon receipt by the Company (or its duly appointed agent) of both a notice of exercise and written confirmation pursuant to Rule 6.2 or 6.4 of this Schedule 1 in respect of the Related Savings Contract, except where the notice and authority shall be sent by pre-paid post when the date of posting, as evidenced by the postmark on the envelope or in such other manner as shall be determined by the Board, shall be the date of exercise.

 

9.2                            An SAR Option shall be exercisable by the Trustee submitting to the Company (or its duly appointed agent) a duly completed notice of exercise and the relevant deed of option grant on the date under Rule 4.2 or 8 of this Schedule 1 (as appropriate) by reference to which the Market Value of a Share determines the ESP or “end Share

 

22

 

price” as specified in each such rule or where this is not feasible on a date as soon as practicable thereafter and upon such date the Trustee shall be deemed to have instructed the Company’s brokers either to sell as many Shares as are necessary to obtain the funds due on exercise of the SAR Option, where Shares are to be delivered to the relevant Participant on the exercise of the related SAR, and to account to the Company for the net proceeds of sale, such proceeds to be applied in payment of the aggregate exercise price of the SAR Option, or to sell all the Shares under the SAR Option, where cash is to be delivered to the relevant Participant, and to account to the Company for the aggregate exercise price of the SAR Option in payment of such exercise price out of the net proceeds of sale and to deliver to the Trustee the balance of the net proceeds of sale remaining. The notice of exercise will confirm such instructions. The Company may issue a replacement deed of option grant in respect of any unexercised SAR Options.

 

9.3                            Subject to such consents or other required action of any competent authority under regulations or enactments for the time being in force as may be necessary and subject to compliance with the terms of the SAR Option, the Company shall, within 30 days after the deemed date of exercise of an SAR Option, either issue and allot to the Trustee or at his direction the number of the Shares due or procure the transfer to it or at its direction of those Shares. Except where cash and not Shares is to be delivered to the relevant Participant, the Trustee shall hold the balance of the Shares, after accounting for the Shares which have been sold to fund the cost of exercise, pursuant to the terms of the deed of option grant in respect of the relevant Participant and, subject to the extent of the exercise of the related SAR by the relevant Participant, the Trustee shall arrange for such Shares to be transferred to the Participant or at his direction . Where cash is to be delivered to a Participant in respect of an SAR, the Trustee shall pass on to the Participant the balance of the net proceeds of sale received from the Company’s brokers as referred to in Rule 9.2 of this Schedule 1 as soon as possible. Shares issued and allotted pursuant to this Plan shall rank pari passu in all respects with the Shares in issue on the date of allotment, save as regards any rights attaching by reference to a record date which precedes that date.

 

9.4                            The Company shall make application to the UK Listing Authority for the admission to the Official List of all Shares allotted pursuant to the Plan and to the London Stock Exchange for permission to trade in those shares provided that Shares are then listed by the UK Listing Authority. Certificates will be issued in respect of new Shares, save that if the Shares are then listed, new Shares may be issued in uncertificated form.

 

9.5                            If an SAR is exercised in respect of part only of the Shares comprised therein, the SAR in respect of the balance shall lapse.

 

9.6                            The Company, any employing company or the trustee of any employee benefit trust may make such arrangements as it considers necessary to meet any liability to taxation, duties, social security contributions or other amounts in respect of Share Awards or Cash Awards or otherwise in connection with a person’s participation in the Plan, whether the liability is a liability of, or is payable by, the Participant, the Company, the employing company or the trustee and whether such liability arises before or after the adoption of this Rule.  These arrangements may include a reduction in the number of Shares subject to a Share Award and/or the sale on behalf of the Participant of and of the Shares to which he is entitled under the Plan and the retention of the sale proceeds to meet the liability and/or withholding amounts due from a Cash Award.  References to social security contributions include anything in a jurisdiction outside the United

 

23

 

Kingdom which, in the opinion of the Board, is reasonably comparable to social security contributions.

 

10                               Cash Awards

 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in these Rules, if the delivery of a Share Award to a Participant is prohibited under any laws or regulations of a relevant territory, no Participant subject to the laws or regulations of such territory shall receive a Share Award. Instead any Participant who would otherwise have received a Share Award may, if the Board so determines, receive a Cash Award equal to the Market Value of the number of Shares which would have been subject to such Share Award.

 

For the purposes of this Rule 10, Market Value means:

 

10.1                     in respect of a Share Award which would otherwise have been delivered pursuant to Rule 4.2 of this Schedule 1, Market Value (as determined by the Board) as at the Relevant Repayment Date;

 

10.2                     in respect of a Share Award which would otherwise have been delivered pursuant to Rule 7 of the Plan, Market Value (as determined by the Board) as at the date of death or cessation of office or employment (under Rule 7 of the Plan), or the date on which the Board gives notice to Participants (under Rule 8 of the Plan).

 

Subject to Rule 9.6 of this Schedule 1, any Cash Award shall be paid to the Participant as soon as practicable following the determination of Market Value specified above and any SARs which relate to a corresponding Share Award shall lapse immediately thereafter.

Section 5.4. Nothing in this paragraph shall limit the rights of the Administrative Agent and Lenders with respect to Sections 5.1(c) and 12.2 nor any of their other rights under this Agreement. The Borrower’s

except that, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such Cash Collateral shall not be applied to any other Secured Obligations and shall be released to the Borrower as and to the extent such excess is reduced, notwithstanding
that other Secured Obligations remain outstanding). 
 (ii) If at any time the Revolving Credit Outstandings exceed 105% of
the Revolving Credit Commitment, then to the extent resulting from fluctuations in currency exchange rates, the Borrower agrees to repay immediately upon notice from the Administrative Agent, by payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of
the Revolving Credit Lenders, Extensions of Credit in an amount equal to such excess with each such repayment applied first, to the principal amount of outstanding Swingline Loans, second to the principal amount of outstanding
Revolving Credit Loans and third, with respect to any Letters of Credit then outstanding, a payment of Cash Collateral into a Cash Collateral account opened by the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Revolving Credit Lenders, in an
amount equal to such excess remaining after taking into account any Cash Collateral already on deposit with the Administrative Agent with respect to Letters of Credit (such Cash Collateral to be applied in accordance with
Section 12.2(b), except that, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such Cash Collateral shall not be applied to any other Secured Obligations and shall be released to the Borrower as and to the extent
such excess is reduced, notwithstanding that other Secured Obligations remain outstanding). 
 (c) Optional Prepayments. The
Borrower may at any time and from time to time prepay Revolving Credit Loans and Swingline Loans, in whole or in part, with irrevocable prior written notice to the Administrative Agent substantially in the form attached as Exhibit D (a
“Notice of Prepayment”) given not later than noon Eastern time (i) on the same Business Day as prepayment of each Base Rate Loan and each Swingline Loan and (ii) at least three (3) Business Days before prepayment of each
LIBOR Rate Loan, specifying the date and amount of prepayment and whether the prepayment is of LIBOR Rate Loans, Base Rate Loans, Swingline Loans or a combination thereof, and, if of a combination thereof, the amount allocable to each. Upon
receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Credit Lender. If any such notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date set forth in such notice. Partial
prepayments of Revolving Credit Loans shall be in an aggregate amount of $2,500,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof; partial prepayments of Swingline Loans shall be in an aggregate amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000
in excess thereof. A Notice of Prepayment received after noon Eastern time shall be deemed received on the next Business Day. Each such repayment shall be accompanied by any amount required to be paid pursuant to Section 5.9 hereof.

 (d) Limitation on Prepayment of LIBOR Rate Loans. The Borrower may not prepay any LIBOR Rate Loan on any day other than on the
last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto unless such prepayment is accompanied by any amount required to be paid pursuant to Section 5.9 hereof. 

  
 39 

 (e) Hedge Agreements. No repayment or prepayment of the Loans pursuant to this
Section shall affect any of the Borrower’s obligations under any Hedge Agreement entered into with respect to the Loans. 
 SECTION 2.5
Permanent Reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitment.
 (a) Voluntary Reduction. The Borrower shall have
the right at any time and from time to time, upon at least five (5) Business Days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, to permanently reduce, without premium or penalty, (i) the entire Revolving Credit Commitment at any time or
(ii) portions of the Revolving Credit Commitment, from time to time, in an aggregate principal amount not less than $2,500,000 or any whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof. Any reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitment shall be
applied to the Revolving Credit Commitment of each Revolving Credit Lender according to its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage. All commitment fees accrued until the effective date of any termination of the Revolving Credit Commitment shall
be paid on the effective date of such termination. 
 (b) Corresponding Payment. Each permanent reduction of the Revolving Credit
Commitment permitted pursuant to this Section shall be accompanied by a payment of principal sufficient to reduce the aggregate outstanding Revolving Credit Loans, Swingline Loans and L/C Obligations, as applicable, after such reduction to the
Revolving Credit Commitment as so reduced and if the Revolving Credit Commitment as so reduced is less than the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit, the Borrower shall be required to deposit Cash Collateral in a Cash
Collateral account opened by the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to such excess after taking into account any Cash Collateral already on deposit with the Administrative Agent with respect to Letters of Credit. Such Cash Collateral shall
be applied and released in accordance with Section 12.2(b), except that, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such Cash Collateral shall not be applied to any other Secured Obligations and shall be
released to the Borrower as and to the extent such excess is reduced notwithstanding that other Secured Obligations remain outstanding. Any reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitment to zero shall be accompanied by payment of all outstanding
Revolving Credit Loans and Swingline Loans (and furnishing of Cash Collateral satisfactory to the Administrative Agent for all L/C Obligations) and shall result in the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitment and the Swingline Commitment and
the Revolving Credit Facility. If the reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitment requires the repayment of any LIBOR Rate Loan, such repayment shall be accompanied by any amount required to be paid pursuant to Section 5.9 hereof. 

SECTION 2.6 Termination of Revolving Credit Facility. The Revolving Credit Facility and the Revolving Credit Commitments
shall terminate on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date.

 ARTICLE III 

LETTER OF CREDIT FACILITY 

SECTION 3.1 L/C Commitment.

(a) Availability. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Issuing Lender, in reliance on the agreements of the other
Lenders set forth in Section 3.4(a), agrees to issue letters of credit (the “Letters of Credit”) for the account of the Borrower (but for the purposes of the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof), on any Business Day from the
Closing Date through but not including the fifth (5th) Business Day prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date in such form as may be approved from time to time by the applicable Issuing Lender; provided, that no Issuing Lender shall have
any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, (i) the Dollar Equivalent of L/C Obligations would exceed the L/C Commitment, (ii) the Revolving Credit Outstandings would exceed the Revolving Credit
Commitment, (iii) unless such Issuing Lender shall have otherwise agreed, the aggregate outstanding amount of L/C Obligations associated with Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender would exceed 50% of the L/C Commitment; or (iv) if
such Letter of Credit is to be denominated in an Alternative Currency, the Dollar Equivalent of L/C Obligations with respect to all Letters of Credit denominated in Alternative Currencies would exceed $50,000,000. Each Letter of Credit shall
(i) be denominated in Dollars or in an Alternative Currency in a minimum amount of $500,000 or the Dollar Equivalent thereof (or such lesser amount as agreed to by the applicable Issuing Lender), (ii) be a standby letter of credit issued
to support obligations of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, contingent or otherwise, incurred in the ordinary course of business, (iii) subject to the final sentence of this section, expire on a date no more than twelve (12) months after
the date of issuance or last renewal of such Letter of Credit, which date shall be no later than the fifth (5th) Business Day prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and (iv) be subject to the Uniform Customs and/or ISP98, as set forth in
the Letter of Credit Application or as determined by the applicable Issuing Lender and, to the extent not inconsistent therewith, the laws of the State of New York. No Issuing Lender shall at any time be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit
hereunder if such issuance would conflict with, or cause such Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant to exceed any limits imposed by, any Applicable Law or if the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of the Issuing
Lender applicable to letters of credit generally. References herein to “issue” and derivations thereof with respect to Letters of Credit shall also include extensions or modifications of any outstanding Letters of Credit, unless the
context otherwise requires. If the Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the Issuing Lender may, in its sole discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an
“Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit the Issuing Lender to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of
issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is
issued. Unless otherwise directed by the Issuing Lender, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the Issuing Lender for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall
be 

  
 41 

 
deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the Issuing Lender to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the Revolving Credit Maturity
Date; provided, however, that the Issuing Lender shall not permit any such extension if (A) the Issuing Lender has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation, at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in
its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof, or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from the Administrative Agent
that the Required Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (2) from the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 6.2 is not then satisfied, and in each
such case directing the Issuing Lender not to permit such extension.
 (b) Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in this Agreement, Article III shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 5.15 and Section 5.16. 

SECTION 3.2 Procedure for Issuance of Letters of Credit. The Borrower may from time to time request that any Issuing
Lender issue a Letter of Credit by delivering to such Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent a Letter of Credit Application therefor, completed to the reasonable satisfaction of such Issuing Lender, and such other certificates, documents and
other papers and information as such Issuing Lender may reasonably request. Upon receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the applicable Issuing Lender shall process such Letter of Credit Application and the certificates, documents and
other papers and information delivered to it in connection therewith in accordance with its customary procedures and shall, subject to Section 3.1 and Article VI, promptly issue the Letter of Credit requested (but in no
event shall such Issuing Lender be required to issue any Letter of Credit earlier than three (3) Business Days after its receipt of the Letter of Credit Application therefor and all such other certificates, documents and other papers and information
relating thereto) by issuing the original of such Letter of Credit to the beneficiary thereof or as otherwise may be agreed by such Issuing Lender and the Borrower. The applicable Issuing Lender shall promptly furnish to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent a copy of such Letter of Credit and promptly notify the Administrative Agent and each Revolving Credit Lender of the issuance of such Letter of Credit and, upon request by any Revolving Credit Lender, furnish to such Lender a
copy of such Letter of Credit and the amount of such Revolving Credit Lender’s participation therein. Upon the effectiveness of this Agreement, each Existing Letter of Credit shall, without any further action by any party, be deemed to
have been issued as a Letter of Credit hereunder on the date of such effectiveness and shall for all purposes hereof be treated as a Letter of Credit under this Agreement. 

SECTION 3.3 Commissions and Other Charges. 

(a) Letter of Credit Commissions. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing
Lender and the L/C Participants, a letter of credit commission with respect to each Letter of Credit in the amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit multiplied by the
Applicable Margin with respect to Revolving Credit Loans that are LIBOR Rate Loans (determined on a per annum basis); provided that with respect to each Cash Secured Letter of Credit, the letter of

  
 42 

 
credit commission shall be the amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit multiplied by 0.75% per annum. Such
commission shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter, on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and thereafter on demand of the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall, promptly following
its receipt thereof, distribute to the applicable Issuing Lender and the L/C Participants all commissions received pursuant to this Section in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages. 

(b) Fronting Fee. In addition to the foregoing commission, the Borrower shall pay to each applicable Issuing Lender a fronting fee
with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender as set forth in the Fee Letter executed by such Issuing Lender. Such fronting fee shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter
commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and thereafter on demand of the Administrative Agent. 

(c) Other Costs and Fees. In addition to the foregoing fees and commissions, the Borrower shall pay or reimburse each Issuing
Lender for such normal and customary costs and expenses as are (i) incurred or charged by such Issuing Lender in issuing, effecting payment under, amending or otherwise administering any Letter of Credit and (ii) charged by such Issuing Lender to
its customers generally.
 SECTION 3.4 L/C Participations. 

(a) Each Issuing Lender irrevocably agrees to grant and hereby grants to each L/C Participant, and, to induce each Issuing Lender to issue
Letters of Credit hereunder, each L/C Participant irrevocably agrees to accept and purchase and hereby accepts and purchases from each Issuing Lender, on the terms and conditions hereinafter stated, for such L/C Participant’s own account and
risk an undivided interest equal to such L/C Participant’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage in each Issuing Lender’s obligations and rights under and in respect of each Letter of Credit issued hereunder and the amount of each draft
paid by such Issuing Lender thereunder. Each L/C Participant unconditionally and irrevocably agrees with each Issuing Lender that, if a draft is paid under any Letter of Credit for which such Issuing Lender is not reimbursed in full by the
Borrower through a Revolving Credit Loan or otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such L/C Participant shall pay to such Issuing Lender upon demand at such Issuing Lender’s address for notices specified herein the Dollar
Equivalent of an amount equal to such L/C Participant’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the amount of such draft, or any part thereof, which is not so reimbursed. 

(b) Upon becoming aware of any amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant to any Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.4(a) in
respect of any unreimbursed portion of any payment made by such Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit, such Issuing Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent and each L/C Participant of the amount (expressed in Dollars) and due date of such
required payment and such L/C Participant shall pay to such Issuing Lender in Dollars the amount specified on the applicable due date. If any such amount is paid to such Issuing Lender after the date such payment is due, such L/C Participant
shall pay to such Issuing Lender on demand, in addition to such amount, the product of (i) such amount, times (ii) the 

  
 43 

 
daily average Federal Funds Rate as determined by the Administrative Agent during the period from and including the date such payment is due to the date on which such payment is immediately
available to such Issuing Lender, times (iii) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse during such period and the denominator of which is 360. A certificate of such Issuing Lender with respect to any
amounts owing under this Section shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. With respect to payment to such Issuing Lender of the unreimbursed amounts described in this Section, if the L/C Participants receive notice that any such
payment is due (A) prior to 1:00 p.m. Eastern time on any Business Day, such payment shall be due that Business Day, and (B) after 1:00 p.m. Eastern time on any Business Day, such payment shall be due on the following Business Day. 

(c) Whenever, at any time after any Issuing Lender has made payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any L/C Participant its
Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of such payment in accordance with this Section, such Issuing Lender receives any payment related to such Letter of Credit (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise), or any payment of interest on
account thereof, such Issuing Lender will distribute to such L/C Participant its pro rata share thereof; provided, that in the event that any such payment received by such Issuing Lender shall be required to be returned by such
Issuing Lender, such L/C Participant shall return to such Issuing Lender the portion thereof previously distributed by such Issuing Lender to it. 

SECTION 3.5 Reimbursement Obligation of the Borrower.

(a) In the event of any drawing under any Letter of Credit, (i) the Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent thereof and (ii) subject, as applicable to Section 3.5(b), the Borrower agrees to reimburse (either with the proceeds of a Revolving Credit Loan as provided for in this Section or with funds from other sources), in same day funds in the
applicable currency, the applicable Issuing Lender on each date on which such Issuing Lender notifies the Borrower of the date and amount of a draft paid under any Letter of Credit for the amount of (A) such draft so paid and (B) any
amounts referred to in Section 3.3(c) incurred by such Issuing Lender in connection with such payment. Unless the Borrower shall immediately notify such Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent that the Borrower intends to reimburse
such Issuing Lender for such drawing from other sources or funds, the Borrower shall be deemed to have timely given a Notice of Borrowing to the Administrative Agent requesting that the Revolving Credit Lenders make a Revolving Credit Loan bearing
interest at the Base Rate on such date in the amount of (i) the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of such draft so paid and (ii) any amounts referred to in Section 3.3(c) incurred by such Issuing Lender in connection with such
payment, and the Revolving Credit Lenders shall make a Revolving Credit Loan bearing interest at the Base Rate in such amount, the proceeds of which shall be applied to reimburse such Issuing Lender for the amount of the related drawing and costs
and expenses. Each Revolving Credit Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to fund a Revolving Credit Loan in accordance with this Section to reimburse such Issuing Lender for any draft paid under a Letter of Credit is absolute and
unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including non-satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 2.3(a) or Article VI. If the Borrower has elected to pay the amount of such drawing with
funds from other sources and shall fail to reimburse such Issuing Lender as provided above, the 

  
 44 

 
unreimbursed amount (expressed in Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of such unreimbursed amount) shall bear interest at the rate which would be payable on any outstanding Base Rate Loans which
were then overdue from the date such amount becomes payable (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) until payment in full. 

(b) In the case of a drawing upon a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, the Borrower shall reimburse the Issuing Lender
pursuant to Section 3.5(a) in such Alternative Currency, unless (A) the Issuing Lender (at its option) shall have specified in the applicable notice that it will require reimbursement in Dollars or (B) in the absence of any such
requirement for reimbursement in Dollars, the Borrower shall have notified the Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent promptly following receipt of the notice of drawing that the Borrower will reimburse the Issuing Lender in Dollars. In
the case of any such reimbursement in Dollars of a drawing under a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, the Issuing Lender shall notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of the
drawing promptly following the determination thereof. In the event that (A) a drawing denominated in an Alternative Currency is to be reimbursed in Dollars pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 3.5(b) and (B)
the Dollar reimbursement amount paid by the Borrower shall not be adequate on the date of the applicable payment to purchase in accordance with normal banking procedures a sum denominated in the Alternative Currency equal to the drawing, the
Borrower agrees, as a separate and independent obligation, to indemnify the Issuing Lender for the loss resulting from such inadequacy. Each Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of any reimbursement payment it receives from
the Borrower pursuant to Section 3.5(a). 
 SECTION 3.6 Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligations
under this Article III (including the Reimbursement Obligation) shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment which the Borrower may
have or have had against the applicable Issuing Lender or any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or any other Person. The Borrower also agrees that the applicable Issuing Lender and the L/C Participants shall not be responsible for, and the
Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligation under Section 3.5 shall not be affected by, among other things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even though such documents shall in fact prove to be
invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute between or among the Borrower and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred or any claims whatsoever of the Borrower against any
beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or any such transferee. No Issuing Lender shall be liable for any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection
with any Letter of Credit, except for errors or omissions caused by such Issuing Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final nonappealable judgment. The Borrower agrees that
any action taken or omitted by any Issuing Lender under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or the related drafts or documents, if done in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall be binding on the Borrower and shall not
result in any liability of such Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant to the Borrower. The responsibility of any Issuing Lender to the Borrower in connection with any draft presented for payment under any Letter of Credit shall, in addition to
any payment obligation expressly provided for in such Letter of Credit, be limited to determining that the documents (including each draft) delivered under such Letter of Credit in connection with such presentment are in conformity with such Letter
of Credit. 

  
 45 

 SECTION 3.7 Effect of Letter of Credit Application. To the extent that
any provision of any Letter of Credit Application related to any Letter of Credit is inconsistent with the provisions of this Article III, the provisions of this Article III shall apply.

Loan shall be $150,000,000 and the amount of the Term Loan of each Lender on the Closing Date shall be equal to its Term Loan Percentage of such amount on the Closing Date. Any portion of the Term Loan Commitments not drawn on the Closing Date
will be available, up to a maximum of $150,000,000, to be drawn at any time on or prior to the Delayed Draw Termination Date (the date of any such draw being herein referred to as a “Delayed Draw Date”). Each drawing of the
Term Loans on a Delayed Draw Date shall be in a minimum amount of $25,000,000 or a multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Upon the making of a Term Loan by a Lender (on either the Closing Date or a Delayed Draw Date), its Term Loan

 SECTION 4.2 Procedure for Advance of Term
Loans.
 (a) The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent an irrevocable Notice of Borrowing prior to noon Eastern time on the
Closing Date requesting that the Term Loan Lenders make the Initial Term Loan on such date (provided that the Borrower may request, no later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, that the Lenders make the Initial Term Loan as a
LIBOR Rate Loan if the Borrower has delivered to the Administrative Agent a letter in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent indemnifying the Lenders in the manner set forth in Section 5.9 of this
Agreement). Upon receipt of such Notice of Borrowing from the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Term Loan Lender thereof. Not later than 1:00 p.m. Eastern time on the Closing Date, each Term Loan Lender will
make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Borrower, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in immediately available funds, the amount of such Initial Term Loan to be made by such Term Loan Lender on the Closing

 46 

 (b) The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent an irrevocable Notice of Borrowing with
respect to each Delayed Draw Term Loan not later than (i) noon Eastern time on the same Business Day as the Delayed Draw Term Loan if the Borrower requests that it be a Base Rate Loan and (ii) noon Eastern time on a day that is at least three
(3) Business Days prior to the Delayed Draw Date if the Borrower requests that the Delayed Draw Term Loan be a LIBOR Rate Loan, of its intention to borrow the Delayed Draw Term Loan, specifying (A) the date of such borrowing, which shall be a
Business Day and shall be designated in such Notice of Borrowing as a “Delayed Draw Date”, (B) whether the Delayed Draw Term Loan is to be LIBOR Rate Loan or Base Rate Loan, and (C) if it is to be a LIBOR Rate Loan, the duration
of the Interest Period applicable thereto. A Notice of Borrowing received after the time set forth herein shall be deemed received on the next Business Day. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Term Loan Lenders of such
Notice of Borrowing. Not later than 1:00 p.m. Eastern time on the Delayed Draw Date, each Term Loan Lender will make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Borrower, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in immediately
available funds, the amount of such Term Loan to be made by such Term Loan Lender on the Delayed Draw Date. The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to disburse the proceeds of each Delayed Draw Term Loan in
immediately available funds by wire transfer to such Person or Persons as may be designated by the Borrower in writing.
 SECTION 4.3

time, without premium or penalty, to prepay the Term Loans, in whole or in part, upon delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Notice of Prepayment not later than noon Eastern time (i) on the same Business Day as each prepayment of a Base Rate
Loan and (ii) at least three (3) Business Days before each prepayment of a LIBOR Rate Loan, specifying the date and amount of prepayment and whether the prepayment is of LIBOR Rate 

  
 47 

 
Loans or Base Rate Loans or a combination thereof, and, if of a combination thereof, the amount allocable to each. Each optional prepayment of the Term Loan hereunder shall be in an
aggregate principal amount of at least $2,500,000 or any whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof. Optional prepayments of the Term Loans shall be applied as the Borrower may direct the Administrative Agent in writing, in such proportions
as the Borrower may direct to the remaining principal installments (including principal payments to be made on the maturity date thereof) of each of the Term Loans being prepaid. Each repayment shall be accompanied by any amount required to be

(i) the Interest Period shall commence on the date of advance of or conversion to any LIBOR Rate Loan and, in the case of
immediately successive Interest Periods, each successive Interest Period shall commence on the date on which the immediately preceding Interest Period expires;

per annum of two percent (2%) in excess of the rate (including the Applicable Margin) then applicable to LIBOR Rate Loans until the end of the applicable Interest Period and thereafter at a rate equal to two percent (2%) in excess of the rate
(including the Applicable Margin) then applicable to Base Rate Loans, and (C) all outstanding Base Rate Loans and other Obligations arising hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to two percent
(2%) in excess of the rate (including the Applicable Margin) then applicable to Base Rate Loans or such other Obligations arising hereunder or under any other Loan Document; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence
and during the continuation of an Event of Default under Section 12.1(a) or (b), only the unpaid amount shall bear default interest. Interest shall continue to accrue on the Obligations after the filing by or against the Borrower
of any petition seeking any relief in bankruptcy or under any Debtor Relief Law. 
 (d) Interest Payment and
Computation. Interest on each Base Rate Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter commencing September 30, 2016; and interest on each LIBOR Rate Loan shall be due and payable on the last
day of each Interest Period applicable thereto, and if such Interest Period is greater than three (3) months, at the end of each three (3) month interval during such Interest Period. All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans when the
Base Rate is determined by the Prime Rate shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest provided hereunder shall be made on the basis of a
360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365/366-day year). 

  
 49 

 (e) Maximum Rate. In no contingency or event whatsoever shall the aggregate of all
amounts deemed interest under this Agreement charged or collected pursuant to the terms of this Agreement exceed the highest rate permissible under any Applicable Law which a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem
applicable hereto. In the event that such a court determines that the Lenders have charged or received interest hereunder in excess of the highest applicable rate, the rate in effect hereunder shall automatically be reduced to the maximum rate
permitted by Applicable Law and the Lenders shall at the Administrative Agent’s option (i) promptly refund to the Borrower any interest received by the Lenders in excess of the maximum lawful rate or (ii) apply such excess to the
principal balance of the Obligations on a pro rata basis. It is the intent hereof that the Borrower not pay or contract to pay, and that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender receive or contract to receive, directly or
indirectly in any manner whatsoever, interest in excess of that which may be paid by the Borrower under Applicable Law. 
 SECTION 5.2
Notice and Manner of Conversion or Continuation of Loans. Provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, the Borrower shall have the option to (a) convert at any time all or any portion of
any outstanding Base Rate Loans (other than Swingline Loans) in a principal amount equal to $2,500,000 or any whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof into one or more LIBOR Rate Loans and (b) upon the expiration of any Interest Period,
(i) convert all or any part of its outstanding LIBOR Rate Loans in a principal amount equal to $2,500,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof into Base Rate Loans (other than Swingline Loans) or (ii) continue such LIBOR Rate
Loans as LIBOR Rate Loans. Whenever the Borrower desires to convert or continue Loans as provided above, the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable prior written notice in the form attached as
Exhibit E (a “Notice of Conversion/Continuation”) not later than noon Eastern time three (3) Business Days before the day on which a proposed conversion or continuation of such Loan is
to be effective specifying (A) the Loans to be converted or continued, and, in the case of any LIBOR Rate Loan to be converted or continued, the last day of the Interest Period therefor, (B) the effective date of such conversion or
continuation (which shall be a Business Day), (C) the principal amount of such Loans to be converted or continued, and (D) the Interest Period to be applicable to such converted or continued LIBOR Rate Loan. The Administrative Agent
shall promptly notify the affected Lenders of such Notice of Conversion/Continuation. 
 SECTION 5.3 Fees. 

(a) Commitment Fee. From the Closing Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Revolving
Credit Lenders (other than any Defaulting Lender), a non-refundable commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”) at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for the Commitment Fee on the average daily unused portion of the Revolving
Credit Commitment of the Revolving Credit Lenders (other than the Defaulting Lenders, if any); provided, that the amount of outstanding Swingline Loans shall not be considered usage of the Revolving Credit Commitment for the purpose of
calculating the Commitment Fee; provided, further, that such unused portion shall be determined after giving effect to increases or decreases in the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment of all Revolving Credit Lenders. The
Commitment Fee shall be payable in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter during the term of this Agreement commencing September 30, 2016 and ending on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date. Such Commitment Fee shall be
distributed by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Credit Lenders (other than any Defaulting Lender) pro rata in accordance with such Revolving Credit Lenders’ respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages. 

  
 50 

 (b) Ticking Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account
of the Term Loan Lenders (other than any Defaulting Lender), a non-refundable ticking fee (the “Ticking Fee”) at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for the Commitment Fee on the average daily unused portion of the Term
Loan Commitments of the Term Loan Lenders (other than the Defaulting Lenders, if any) during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending upon the earlier of the expiry, termination or reduction to zero of the Term Loan Commitments. The
Ticking Fee shall be payable in arrears on the earliest of the expiration, termination or reduction to zero of the Term Loan Commitments. The Ticking Fee shall be distributed by the Administrative Agent to the Term Loan Lenders (other than any
Defaulting Lender) pro rata in accordance with such Term Loan Lenders’ respective percentages of the aggregate amount of the Term Loan Commitments.

(c) Other Fees. The Borrower shall pay to each Arranger and the Administrative Agent for their own respective accounts fees in the
amounts and at the times specified in the applicable Fee Letter. The Borrower shall pay to the Lenders such fees as shall have been separately agreed upon in writing in the amounts and at the times so specified. 

SECTION 5.4 Manner of Payment.

(a) Sharing of Payments. Each payment by the Borrower on account of the principal of or interest on the Loans or of any fee,
commission or other amounts (including each Reimbursement Obligation) payable to the Lenders under this Agreement (or any of them) shall be made not later than 1:00 p.m. Eastern time on the date specified for payment under this Agreement to the
Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office for the account of the Lenders entitled to such payment, in Dollars and in immediately available funds, and shall be made without any setoff, counterclaim or deduction
whatsoever. Any payment received after such time but before 2:00 p.m. Eastern time on such day shall be deemed a payment on such date for the purposes of Section 12.1, but for all other purposes shall be deemed to have been made on the
next succeeding Business Day. Any payment received after 2:00 p.m. Eastern time shall be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day for all purposes. Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of each such payment, the
Administrative Agent shall distribute to each such Lender at its address for notices set forth herein its pro rata share of such payment in accordance with the amounts then due and payable to such Lenders (except as specified below) and shall wire
advice of the amount of such credit to each Lender. Each payment to the Administrative Agent on account of the principal of or interest on the Swingline Loans or of any fee, commission or other amounts payable to the Swingline Lender shall be
made in like manner, but for the account of the Swingline Lender. Each payment to the Administrative Agent of any Issuing Lender’s fees or L/C Participants’ commissions shall be made in like manner, but for the account of such Issuing
Lender or the L/C Participants, as the case may be. Each payment to the Administrative Agent of Administrative Agent’s fees or expenses shall be made for the account of the Administrative Agent and any amount payable to any Lender under
Section 5.9, 5.10, 5.11 

  
 51 

 
or 14.3 shall be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lender. Subject to Section 5.1(b)(ii), if any payment under this
Agreement shall be specified to be made upon a day which is not a Business Day, it shall be made on the next succeeding day which is a Business Day and such extension of time shall in such case be included in computing any interest if payable along
with such payment. 
 (b) Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if there exists a Defaulting Lender each payment by
the Borrower to such Defaulting Lender hereunder shall be applied in accordance with Section 5.16(a)(ii). 
 SECTION 5.5 Evidence
of Indebtedness. 
 (a) Extensions of Credit. The Extensions of Credit made by each 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 the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error
of the amount of the Extensions of Credit made by the 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 made through the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the
Administrative Agent) a Revolving Credit Note, Term Loan Note and/or Swingline Note, as applicable, which shall evidence such Lender’s Revolving Credit Loans, Term Loans and/or Swingline Loans, as applicable, in addition to such accounts or
records. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Notes and endorse thereon the date, amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto. 

(b) Participations. In addition to the accounts and records referred to in subsection (a), each Revolving Credit Lender and
the Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records evidencing the purchases and sales by such Revolving Credit Lender of participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans. In the event of any
conflict between the accounts and records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any Revolving Credit Lender in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the
absence of manifest error. 
 SECTION 5.6 Adjustments. 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 Loans or other obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest
thereon or other such obligations (other than pursuant to Section 5.9, 5.10, 5.11 or 14.3) greater than its 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 Loans 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 Loans and other amounts owing them; provided that 

  
 52 

 (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the
payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and 

(ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (A) any payment made by the Borrower 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), (B) the application of Cash Collateral provided for in Section 5.15 or (C) any payment
obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary
thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). 
 The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively
do so under Applicable Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against each Credit Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were
a direct creditor of each Credit Party in the amount of such participation. 
 SECTION 5.7 Obligations of Lenders. 

(a) Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a
Lender prior to the proposed date of any borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on
such date in accordance with Sections 2.3(b) and 4.2 and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable
borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the
date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the daily average Federal Funds Rate and a rate
determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation and (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. If the Borrower and
such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If such
Lender pays its share of the applicable borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such borrowing. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the
Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent. 

  
 53 

 (b) Nature of Obligations of Lenders Regarding Extensions of Credit. The obligations
of the Lenders under this Agreement to make the Loans and issue or participate in Letters of Credit are several and are not joint or joint and several. The failure of any Lender to make available its Commitment Percentage of any Loan requested
by the Borrower shall not relieve it or any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Commitment Percentage of such Loan available on the borrowing date, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to
make its Commitment Percentage of such Loan available on the borrowing date. 
 SECTION 5.8 Changed Circumstances. 

(a) Circumstances Affecting LIBOR Rate Availability. In connection with any request for a LIBOR Rate Loan or a Base Rate Loan as to
which the interest rate is determined with reference to LIBOR or a conversion to or continuation thereof, if for any reason (i) the Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that
Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank Eurodollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Loan, (ii) the Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding
absent manifest error) that reasonable and adequate means do not exist for the ascertaining the LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Rate Loan or any Base Rate Loan as to which the interest rate is determined with
reference to LIBOR or (iii) the Required Lenders shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the LIBOR Rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining
such Loans during such Interest Period, then the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to the Borrower. Thereafter, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that such circumstances no longer exist, the obligation
of the Lenders to make LIBOR Rate Loans or Base Rate Loans as to which the interest rate is determined with reference to LIBOR and the right of the Borrower to convert any Loan to or continue any Loan as a LIBOR Rate Loan or a Base Rate Loan as to
which the interest rate is determined with reference to LIBOR shall be suspended, and (i) in the case of LIBOR Rate Loans, the Borrower shall either (A) repay in full (or cause to be repaid in full) the then outstanding principal amount of each
such LIBOR Rate Loan together with accrued interest thereon (subject to Section 5.1(d)), on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loan; or (B) convert the then outstanding principal amount of each such
LIBOR Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan as to which the interest rate is not determined by reference to LIBOR as of the last day of such Interest Period; or (ii) in the case of Base Rate Loans as to which the interest rate is determined by reference to
LIBOR, each such Loan shall automatically convert to a Base Rate Loan as to which the interest rate is not determined by reference to LIBOR. 

(b) Laws Affecting LIBOR Rate Availability. If, after the date hereof, the introduction of, or any change in, any Applicable Law or
any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any of the Lenders (or any of their respective
Lending Offices) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, shall 

  
 54 

 
make it unlawful or impossible for any of the Lenders (or any of their respective Lending Offices) to honor its obligations hereunder to make or maintain any LIBOR Rate Loan or any Base Rate Loan
as to which the interest rate is determined by reference to LIBOR, such Lender shall promptly give notice thereof to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice to the Borrower and the other
Lenders. Thereafter, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that such circumstances no longer exist, (i) the obligations of the Lenders to make LIBOR Rate Loans or Base Rate Loans as to which the interest rate is determined
by reference to LIBOR, and the right of the Borrower to convert any Loan or continue any Loan as a LIBOR Rate Loan or a Base Rate Loan as to which the interest rate is determined by reference to LIBOR shall be suspended and thereafter the Borrower
may select only Base Rate Loans as to which the interest rate is not determined by reference to LIBOR hereunder, (ii) all Base Rate Loans shall cease to be determined by reference to LIBOR and (iii) if any of the Lenders may not lawfully
continue to maintain a LIBOR Rate Loan to the end of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto, the applicable Loan shall immediately be converted to a Base Rate Loan as to which the interest rate is not determined by reference to LIBOR
for the remainder of such Interest Period. 
 SECTION 5.9 Indemnity. The Borrower hereby indemnifies each of the Lenders against
any loss or expense which may arise or be attributable to each Lender’s obtaining, liquidating or employing deposits or other funds acquired to effect, fund or maintain any Loan (a) as a consequence of any failure by the Borrower to make
any payment when due of any amount due hereunder in connection with a LIBOR Rate Loan, (b) due to any failure of the Borrower to borrow, continue or convert on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of
Conversion/Continuation or (c) due to any payment, prepayment or conversion of any LIBOR Rate Loan on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor; provided, however, that each Lender waives as to itself any breakage
or redeployment costs that would otherwise be payable in connection with the refinancing and continuation on the Closing Date of principal amounts under the Existing Credit Agreement as Loans hereunder. The amount of such loss or expense shall
be determined, in the applicable Lender’s reasonable discretion, based upon the assumption that such Lender funded its Commitment Percentage of the LIBOR Rate Loans in the London interbank market and using any reasonable attribution or
averaging methods which such Lender deems appropriate and practical. A certificate of such Lender setting forth the basis for determining such amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender shall be forwarded to the Borrower through the
Administrative Agent and shall be conclusively presumed to be correct save for manifest error. 
 SECTION 5.10 Increased
Costs. 
 (a) Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall: 

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement
against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or advances, loans or other credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the LIBOR Rate) or any Issuing Lender; 

  
 55 

 (ii) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B)
Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or
capital attributable thereto; or 
 (iii) impose on any Lender or any Issuing Lender or the London interbank market any other
condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or LIBOR Rate Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; 

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender, the Issuing Lender or such other Recipient of making,
converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender, such Issuing Lender or such other Recipient of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of
Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, such Issuing Lender or such other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal,
interest or any other amount) then, upon written request of such Lender, such Issuing Lender or other Recipient, the Borrower shall pay to any such Lender, such Issuing Lender or other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts
as will compensate such Lender, such Issuing Lender or other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. 

(b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender or any Issuing Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or such
Issuing Lender or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such
Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender or the Loans made
by, or participations in Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or such Issuing
Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s holding company
with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time upon written request of such Lender or such Issuing Lender the Borrower shall pay to such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will
compensate such Lender or such Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. 

(c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender, an Issuing Lender or any other Recipient setting forth the amount or
amounts necessary to compensate such Lender, such Issuing Lender, such other Recipient or any of their respective holding companies, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to the
Borrower, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender, such Issuing Lender or such other Recipient, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt
thereof. 

  
 56 

 (d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender, any Issuing Lender
or any other Recipient to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s, such Issuing Lender’s or such other Recipient’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the
Borrower shall not be required to compensate any Lender, any Issuing Lender or any other Recipient pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine (9) months prior to the date that such Lender, such
Issuing Lender or such other Recipient, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of such Lender’s, such Issuing Lender’s or such other Recipient’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 nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

 SECTION 5.11 Taxes. 

(a) Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 5.11, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Lender and the term
“Applicable Law” includes FATCA. 
 (b) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation
of any Credit Party under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by Applicable Law. If any Applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding
Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding 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 Law 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 applicable to additional sums payable under this Section), the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding
been made. 
 (c) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in
accordance with Applicable Law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes. 
 (d)
Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to
amounts payable under this Section) 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. 

  
 57 

 (e) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the
Administrative Agent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and
without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 14.10(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participation Register (as defined in that
Section) 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 Loan 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 Loan 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
Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Credit Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 5.11, the applicable Credit Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a
certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 

(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
Loan 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 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 Law 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 such documentation set forth in Section
5.11(g)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would
materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender, 

  
 58 

 (ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing: 

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

(b) executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI; 

(c) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the
Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit 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 “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS
Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E; or 
 (d) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of
IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit 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 U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit I-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner; 

  
 59 

 (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 Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States federal withholding Tax, duly completed,
together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by Applicable Law 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 Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to United States federal withholding Tax imposed by
FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by Applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code)
and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has
complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the
date of this Agreement. 
 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) 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 5.11 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 5.11), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund
(but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 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 (h)
(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 (h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (h) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax
position than the indemnified party would 

  
 60 

 
have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with
respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph 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. 
 (i) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 5.11 shall survive the
resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document. 

(j) For purposes of determining withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA, from and after the Closing Date, the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent shall treat (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to treat) the Loans outstanding under this Agreement as not qualifying as a “grandfathered obligation” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section
1.1471-2(b)(2)(i). 
 SECTION 5.12 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. 

(a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 5.10, or requires the
Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 5.11, then such Lender shall (at the request of the Borrower) use
reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such
designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 5.10 or Section 5.11, as the case may be, 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. 

(b) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 5.10, or if the Borrower is
required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 5.11, and in each case such Lender is not obligated to designate a different Lending
Office in accordance with Section 5.12(a), or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender hereunder or becomes a Non-Consenting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent,
require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 14.10), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the
related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that: 

(i) the Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 14.10; 

  
 61 

 (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the
outstanding principal of its Loans and unreimbursed drawings under Letters of Credit, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section
5.9) 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 5.10 or payments required
to be made pursuant to Section 5.11, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; 

(iv) such assignment does not conflict with Applicable Law; and 

(v) in the case of an assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee consents to
the applicable amendment, waiver or consent. 
 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. 

SECTION 5.13 Security. The Secured Obligations of the Borrower shall be secured as provided in the Security Documents. 

SECTION 5.14 Incremental Commitments. 

(a) The Borrower may from time to time by written notice to the Administrative Agent elect to request (i) incremental revolving credit
commitments (the “Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments”) for the purpose of increasing the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments and/or (ii) incremental term loan commitments (the “Incremental Term Loan
Commitments,” and together with the Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments, the “Incremental Commitments”) for the purpose of increasing the aggregate Term Loan Commitments; 

provided that (1) the aggregate amount of all Incremental Commitments shall not (as of any date of incurrence thereof) exceed $300,000,000 and (2) the
aggregate amount of each increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments and/or Term Loan Commitments pursuant to this section shall not be less than $25,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Each such notice shall specify
the date (each, an “Increased Amount Date”) on which the Borrower proposes that any Incremental Commitments shall be effective, which shall be a date not less than ten (10) Business Days after the date on which such notice is
delivered to the Administrative Agent. The Borrower may invite any Lender, any Affiliate of any Lender and/or any Approved Fund, and/or any other Person reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, to provide an Incremental Commitment
(any such Person, a “New Lender”). Any Person offered or approached to provide all or a portion of any Incremental Commitments may elect or 

  
 62 

 
decline, in its sole discretion, to provide an Incremental Commitment. Revolving Credit Commitments and Revolving Credit Loans and Term Loan Commitments and Term Loans made pursuant to this
Section shall be subject to the same terms applicable to the Revolving Credit Commitments and Revolving Credit Loans or Term Loan Commitments and Term Loans, as applicable, made on the Closing Date, except that the pricing, maturity and amortization
terms applicable to any Term Loans made pursuant to this Section shall be as agreed among the Borrower, the Lenders providing such Term Loans and the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that (i) the maturity date of any such Term Loans
shall be no earlier than the latest maturity date of the then-outstanding Term Loans and (ii) the weighted average life of such Term Loans shall be no shorter than the then-remaining weighted average life of the then-outstanding Term Loans.

Any Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment shall be available on a revolving basis from and after the date of the closing of such Incremental Revolving
Credit Commitment until the Revolving Credit Maturity Date. Any Incremental Term Loan Commitment shall be available on a single draw basis on the date of the closing of such Incremental Term Loan Commitment. Any Incremental Commitment
shall become effective as of the related Increased Amount Date; provided that: 
 (A) no Default or Event of Default
shall exist on such Increased Amount Date before or after giving effect to (1) any Incremental Commitments and (2) the making of any Loans or the issuance of any Letters of Credit pursuant thereto; 

(B) all Term Loans and Revolving Credit Loans made, and all reimbursement obligations in respect of Letters of Credit issued,
pursuant to any Incremental Commitments shall constitute Obligations of the Borrower, shall be secured and guaranteed with the other Extensions of Credit on a pari passu basis and shall otherwise be subject to the same terms and conditions as
other Term Loans (except as provided above), Revolving Credit Loans and Letters of Credit, respectively; 
 (C) the
outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages of Swingline Loans and L/C Obligations will be reallocated by the Administrative Agent on the applicable Increased Amount Date among the Revolving Credit Lenders
(including the New Lenders providing Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments) in accordance with their revised Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages (and the Revolving Credit Lenders (including the New Lenders providing Incremental Revolving
Credit Commitments) agree to make all payments and adjustments necessary to effect such reallocation, and the Borrower shall pay any and all costs required pursuant to Section 5.9 in connection with such reallocation as if such reallocation
were a repayment); 
 (D) any New Lender with an Incremental Commitment shall be entitled to the same voting rights as the
existing Lenders under the applicable Credit Facility, and any Extensions of Credit made in connection with each Incremental Commitment shall receive proceeds of prepayments on the same basis as the other Extensions of Credit of the same kind made
hereunder; 

  
 63 

 (E) Incremental Commitments shall be effected pursuant to one or more joinder
agreements (each a “Joinder Agreement”) executed and delivered by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the applicable New Lenders (which Joinder Agreement(s) shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
parties thereto and may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this
Section 5.14); 
 (F) the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have received from the Borrower a certificate of
a Responsible Officer of the Borrower demonstrating, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, that the Borrower is in compliance with the financial covenants set forth in Article X (based on the
financial statements most recently delivered pursuant to Section 8.1(a) or 8.1(b), as applicable) both before and after giving effect (on a Pro Forma Basis) to (x) any Incremental Commitment and (y) the making
of any Loans pursuant thereto (with any existing and/or then-undrawn Incremental Term Loan Commitment being deemed to be fully funded); 

(G) the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have received from the Borrower a certificate of a Responsible Officer of
the Borrower demonstrating, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, that the Consolidated Senior Secured Leverage Ratio of the Borrower is less than or equal to 3.00 to 1.00, as calculated on a Pro Forma Basis
(based on the financial statements most recently delivered pursuant to Section 8.1(a) or 8.1(b), as applicable), assuming that any then-undrawn pre-existing Term Loan Commitments and any Incremental Term Loan
Commitments have been funded and giving effect to any drawings under Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments to be made on such date and the use of proceeds thereof; 

(H) the Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered any customary legal opinions or other documents (including a resolution
duly adopted by the board of directors (or equivalent governing body) of each Credit Party authorizing the borrowing of Term Loans and/or Revolving Credit Loans, as applicable, and the request of Letters of Credit pursuant to Incremental Revolving
Credit Commitments) reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in connection with any such transaction; and 
 (I) each
Lender or New Lender providing such Incremental Commitment shall receive any applicable flood insurance due diligence information and flood insurance compliance reasonably satisfactory to such Lender or New Lender.

(b) The New Lenders shall be included in any determination of the Required Lenders and the New Lenders will not constitute a separate voting

 SECTION 5.15 Cash Collateral. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender,
within one Business Day following the written request of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) or the Swingline Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize
the Fronting Exposure of such Issuing Lender and/or the Swingline Lender, as applicable, with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving effect to Section 5.16(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender)
in an amount not less than the Minimum Collateral Amount. 
 (a) Grant of Security Interest. The Borrower and, to the extent
provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender hereby grant to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of each Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender, and agree to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash
Collateral as security for the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of L/C Obligations and Swingline Loans, to be applied pursuant to subsection (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, each Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the
Minimum Collateral Amount, 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 5.15 or Section 5.16 in respect of Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations
in respect of L/C Obligations and Swingline Loans (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 Fronting Exposure of any Issuing Lender and/or the Swingline Lender, as applicable, shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 5.15 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, such Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender, as applicable, that there exists
excess Cash Collateral; provided that, subject to Section 5.16, the Person providing Cash Collateral, such Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender, as applicable, may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future
anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations. 
 SECTION 5.16 Defaulting Lenders. 

(a) Defaulting Lender Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a
Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law: 

  
 65 

 (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 Required Lenders and Section 14.2. 

(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 XII or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section
14.4 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 hereunder; second, to the
payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Lenders or the Swingline Lender hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize the Fronting Exposure of the Issuing Lenders and the Swingline
Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 5.15; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan or funded participation 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 (A) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans and funded participations under this Agreement and (B) Cash Collateralize the Issuing
Lenders’ and the Swingline Lender’s future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 5.15;
sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders or the Swingline Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, any Issuing Lender or the Swingline 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 (1) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or funded participations in Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans in respect of which such Defaulting
Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (2) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 6.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment
shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and funded participations in Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or funded
participations in Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in L/C Obligations and Swingline Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in
accordance with the Revolving Credit Commitments without giving effect to Section 5.16(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 5.16(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. 

  
 66 

 (iii) Certain Fees. 

(A) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Commitment Fee for any period 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 commissions pursuant to Section 3.3 for any
period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 5.15.

 (C) With respect to any Commitment Fee or letter of credit commission not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender
pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above, the Borrower shall (1) 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 L/C
Obligations or Swingline Loans that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (2) pay to each applicable Issuing Lender and Swingline Lender, as applicable, the amount of any such fee otherwise payable
to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such Issuing Lender’s or Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (3) 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 L/C Obligations and Swingline Loans shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s
Revolving Credit Commitment) but only to the extent that (x) the conditions set forth in Section 6.2 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 aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such
Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment. 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. 

  
 67 

 (v) Cash Collateral, Repayment of Swingline Loans. 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, repay Swingline Loans in an amount equal
to the Swingline Lenders’ Fronting Exposure and (y) second, Cash Collateralize the Issuing Lenders’ Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 5.15. 

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Swingline 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), such Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be
necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the Commitments under the applicable Credit Facility (without giving
effect to Section 5.16(a)(iv)), 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.

ARTICLE VII 
 REPRESENTATIONS
AND WARRANTIES OF THE CREDIT PARTIES 
 To induce the Administrative Agent and Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to induce the
Lenders to make Extensions of Credit, the Borrower hereby represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, both before and after giving effect to the transactions contemplated hereunder, which representations and warranties shall
be deemed made on the Closing Date and as otherwise set forth in Section 6.2, that: 
 SECTION 7.1 Organization; Power;
Qualification. Each Credit Party and each Subsidiary thereof is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation, has the power and authority to own its Properties
and to carry on its business as now being and hereafter proposed to be conducted and is duly qualified and authorized to do business in each jurisdiction in which the character of its Properties or the nature of its business requires such
qualification and authorization except in jurisdictions where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The jurisdictions in which each Credit Party and each
Subsidiary thereof are organized and qualified to do business as of the Closing Date are described on Schedule 7.1. 
 SECTION
7.2 Ownership. Each Subsidiary of each Credit Party as of the Closing Date is listed on Schedule 7.2. As of the Closing Date, the direct owner of each Credit Party (other than the Borrower), each Material Domestic
Subsidiary and each Material Foreign Subsidiary and the ownership percentage held by each such direct owner is shown on Schedule 7.2. All outstanding shares of each Credit Party, each Material Domestic Subsidiary and each Material
Foreign Subsidiary have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable, with no personal liability attaching to the ownership thereof, and are not subject to any preemptive or similar rights, except as described in
Schedule 7.2. As of the Closing Date, there are no outstanding stock purchase warrants, subscriptions, options, securities, instruments or other rights of any type or nature whatsoever which are convertible into, exchangeable for or
otherwise provide for or permit the issuance of Capital Stock of any Credit Party (other than the Borrower), Material Domestic Subsidiary or Material Foreign Subsidiary, except as described on Schedule 7.2. 

SECTION 7.3 Authorization; Enforceability. Each Credit Party and each Subsidiary thereof has the right, power and authority and
has taken all necessary corporate and other action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents to which it is a party in accordance with their respective terms. This Agreement and
each of the other Loan Documents have been duly executed and delivered by the 

  
 73 

 
duly authorized officers of each Credit Party and each Subsidiary thereof that is a party thereto, and each such document constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of each Credit Party
and each Subsidiary thereof that is a party thereto, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar state or federal Debtor Relief Laws from
time to time in effect which affect the enforcement of creditors’ rights in general and by general principles of equity. 
 SECTION 7.4
Compliance of Agreement, Loan Documents and Borrowing with Laws, Etc. The execution, delivery and performance by each Credit Party and each Subsidiary thereof of the Loan Documents to which each such Person is a
party, in accordance with their respective terms, the Extensions of Credit hereunder and the transactions contemplated hereby do not and will not, by the passage of time, the giving of notice or otherwise, (i) require any Governmental Approval
or violate any Applicable Law relating to any Credit Party or any Subsidiary thereof, (ii) conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute a default under the articles of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational documents of any Credit
Party or any Subsidiary thereof, (iii) conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute a default under any indenture, agreement or other instrument to which such Person is a party or by which any of its properties may be bound or any
Governmental Approval relating to such Person, (iv) result in or require the creation or imposition of any Lien upon or with respect to any property now owned or hereafter acquired by such Person other than Liens arising under the Loan
Documents or (v) require any consent or authorization of, filing with, or other act in respect of, an arbitrator or Governmental Authority and no consent of any other Person is required in connection with the execution, delivery, performance,
validity or enforceability of this Agreement other than (A) filings under the UCC and (B) filings with the United States Copyright Office and/or the United States Patent and Trademark Office. 

SECTION 7.5 Compliance with Law; Governmental Approvals. Each Credit Party and each Subsidiary thereof (i) has all
Governmental Approvals required by any Applicable Law for it to conduct its business, each of which is in full force and effect, is final and not subject to review on appeal and is not the subject of any pending or, to the best of its knowledge,
threatened attack by direct or collateral proceeding, (ii) is in compliance with each Governmental Approval applicable to it and in compliance with all other Applicable Laws relating to it or any of its respective properties and (iii) has
timely filed all material reports, documents and other materials required to be filed by it under all Applicable Laws with any Governmental Authority and has retained all material records and documents required to be retained by it under Applicable
Law except in each case described in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above where the failure to have, comply or file could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

SECTION 7.6 Tax Returns and Payments. Each Credit Party and each Subsidiary thereof has duly filed or caused to be filed
all federal, state, local and other tax returns required by Applicable Law to be filed, and has paid, or made adequate provision for the payment of, all federal, state, local and other taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies upon it
and its property, income, profits and assets which are due and payable (other than any amount the validity of which is currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which reserves in conformity with GAAP have
been provided for on the books of the relevant Credit Party or Subsidiary). Such returns accurately reflect in all material respects all 

  
 74 

 
liability for taxes of any Credit Party or any Subsidiary thereof for the periods covered thereby. There is no ongoing audit or examination or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, other
investigation by any Governmental Authority of the tax liability of any Credit Party or any Subsidiary thereof that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, except for those listed in Schedule 7.6. No Governmental
Authority has asserted any Lien or other claim against any Credit Party or any Subsidiary thereof with respect to unpaid taxes which has not been discharged or resolved (other than (i) any amount the validity of which is currently being
contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which reserves in conformity with GAAP have been provided for on the books of the relevant Credit Party or Subsidiary and (ii) Permitted Liens). The charges, accruals
and reserves on the books of each Credit Party and each Subsidiary thereof in respect of federal, state, local and other taxes for all Fiscal Years and portions thereof since the organization of any Credit Party or any Subsidiary thereof are in the
judgment of the Borrower adequate, and the Borrower does not anticipate any additional taxes or assessments for any of such years.

use all material franchises, licenses, copyrights, copyright applications, patents, patent rights or licenses, patent applications, trademarks, trademark rights, service mark, service mark rights, trade names, trade name rights, copyrights and other
rights with respect to the foregoing which are reasonably necessary to conduct its business. No event has occurred which permits, or after notice or lapse of time or both would permit, the revocation or termination of any such rights, and no
Credit Party nor any Subsidiary thereof is liable to any Person for infringement under Applicable Law with respect to any such rights as a result of its business operations except as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.

other decrees, consent orders, administrative orders or other orders, or other administrative or judicial requirements outstanding under any Environmental Law with respect to any Credit Party, any Subsidiary thereof or such properties or such
operations; and 
 (f) There has been no release, or to the best of the Borrower’s knowledge, threat of release, of Hazardous Materials
at or from properties owned, leased or operated by any Credit Party or any Subsidiary, in violation of, or in amounts or in a manner that could reasonably be expected to give rise to liability under, Environmental Laws that could reasonably be
expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect.

excess liabilities are disclosed on the financial statements of the applicable Person (i.e., the Borrower or a Subsidiary thereof) in accordance with Section 6.1(f) or 8.1. 

  
 77 

 SECTION 7.10 Margin Stock. No Credit Party nor any Subsidiary thereof is engaged
principally or as one of its activities in the business of extending credit for the purpose of “purchasing” or “carrying” any “margin stock” (as each such term is defined or used, directly or indirectly, in
Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System). No part of the proceeds of any of the Loans or Letters of Credit will be used for purchasing or carrying margin stock or for any purpose which violates the provisions of
Regulation T, U or X of such Board of Governors. If requested by any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) or the Administrative Agent, the Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent and each Lender a statement to the foregoing
effect in conformity with the requirements of FR Form G-3 or FR Form U 1 referred to in Regulation U. 
 SECTION 7.11 Government
Regulation. No Credit Party nor any Subsidiary thereof is an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company” (as each such term is defined or used in the Investment Company Act) and no

the transactions contemplated hereby. 
 SECTION 7.12 Material Contracts. Schedule 7.12 sets forth a
complete and accurate list of all Material Contracts of each Credit Party and each Subsidiary thereof in effect as of the Closing Date. Other than as set forth in Schedule 7.12, each such Material Contract is, and after giving effect to
the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents will be, in full force and effect in accordance with the terms thereof. To the extent requested by the Administrative Agent, each Credit Party and each Subsidiary thereof
has delivered to the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of each Material Contract required to be listed on Schedule 7.12 or any other Schedule hereto. No Credit Party nor any Subsidiary thereof (nor, to the knowledge of the
Borrower, any other party thereto) is in breach of or in default under any Material Contract in any material respect.

SECTION 7.14 Burdensome Provisions. No Credit Party nor any Subsidiary thereof is a party to any indenture, agreement, lease or
other instrument, or subject to any corporate or partnership restriction, Governmental Approval or Applicable Law which is so unusual or burdensome as in the foreseeable future could be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The
Credit Parties and their respective Subsidiaries do not presently anticipate that future expenditures needed to meet the provisions of any statutes, orders, rules or regulations of a Governmental Authority will be so burdensome as to have a Material
Adverse Effect. No Subsidiary is party to any agreement or instrument or otherwise subject to any restriction or encumbrance that restricts or limits its ability to make dividend payments or other distributions in respect of its Capital Stock
to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or to transfer any of its assets or properties to the Borrower or any other Subsidiary in each case other than existing under or by reason of the Loan Documents or Applicable Law.

delivered pursuant to Section 6.1(f)(i) are complete and correct and fairly present on a Consolidated basis the assets, liabilities and financial position of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as at such dates, and the results of the
operations and changes of financial position for the periods then ended (other than customary year-end adjustments for unaudited financial statements). All such financial statements, including the related schedules and notes thereto, have been
prepared in accordance with GAAP. Such financial statements show all material indebtedness and other material liabilities, direct or contingent, of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as of the date thereof, including material liabilities for
taxes, material commitments, and Indebtedness, in each case, to the extent required to be disclosed under GAAP. The projections delivered pursuant to Section 6.1(f)(ii) were prepared in good faith on the basis of the assumptions stated
therein, which assumptions are believed to be reasonable in light of then existing conditions except that such financial projections and statements shall be subject to normal year-end closing and audit adjustments. 

SECTION 7.16 No Material Adverse Change. Since March 26, 2016, there has been no material adverse change in the properties,
business, operations, prospects, or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, and no event has occurred or condition arisen, either individually or in the aggregate, that could reasonably be expected

or leasehold, as applicable) to the real property owned or leased by it as is necessary or desirable to the conduct of its business and valid and legal title (except for such defects in title as could not, individually or in the aggregate,
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect) to all of its personal property and assets, except those which have been disposed of by the Credit Parties and their Subsidiaries subsequent to the Closing Date, which dispositions have been
in the ordinary course of business or as otherwise expressly permitted hereunder. 
 SECTION 7.19 Insurance. The properties of
each Credit Party and each Subsidiary thereof are insured with financially sound and reputable insurance companies not Affiliates of the Credit Parties and their Subsidiaries, in such amounts, with such deductibles and covering such risks as are

complete and correct listing of all Indebtedness and Guaranty Obligations of the Credit Parties and their respective Subsidiaries as of the Closing Date in excess of $1,000,000. The Credit Parties and their respective Subsidiaries have
performed and are in compliance with all of the material terms of such Indebtedness and Guaranty Obligations and all instruments and agreements relating thereto, and no default or event of default, or event or condition which with notice or lapse of

SECTION 7.23 Absence of Defaults. No event has occurred and is continuing (i) which constitutes a Default or an Event
of Default, or (ii) which constitutes, or which with the passage of time or giving of notice or both would constitute, a default or event of default by any Credit Party or any Subsidiary thereof under any Material Contract or judgment, decree
or order to which any Credit Party or any Subsidiary thereof is a party or by which any Credit Party or any Subsidiary thereof or any of their respective properties may be bound or which would require any Credit Party or any Subsidiary thereof to
make any payment thereunder prior to the scheduled maturity date therefore that, in any case under this clause (ii), could, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 SECTION 7.24 Sanctions; Anti-Terrorism; Anti-Money Laundering.

(a) Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries nor, to the knowledge of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, any director, officer,

non-public information with respect to the Borrower or its securities) (each, a “Public Lender”). The Borrower hereby agrees that it will use commercially reasonable efforts to identify that portion of the Borrower Materials
that may be distributed to the Public Lenders and that (w) all such Borrower Materials shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the
first page thereof; (x) by marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” the Borrower shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders to treat such Borrower Materials as not
containing any material non-public information (although it may be sensitive and proprietary) with respect to the Borrower or its securities for purposes of United States Federal and state securities laws (provided, however, that to
the extent such Borrower Materials constitute Information, they shall be treated as set forth in Section 14.11); (y) all Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform
designated “Public Investor;” and (z) the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers shall be entitled to treat any Borrower Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform

 102 

 
beneficiaries of the then outstanding Letters of Credit shall have presented or shall be entitled to present the documents required thereunder) and all other Obligations, to be forthwith due and
payable, whereupon the same shall immediately become due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are expressly waived by each Credit Party, anything in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to

 First, to
payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts, including attorney fees, payable to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such, the Issuing Lenders in their capacity as such and
the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such, ratably among the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and Swingline Lender in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause First payable to them;

arising under Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements shall be excluded from the application described above if the Administrative Agent has not received written notice thereof, together with such supporting documentation as
the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank, as the case may be. Each Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank not a party to this Agreement that has given the notice contemplated by the preceding

 (b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or
deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; 
 and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar
official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to
pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under
Sections 3.3, 5.3 and 14.3. 
 Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to

of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding. 
 ARTICLE XIII 

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT 

SECTION 13.1 Appointment and Authority. Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders hereby irrevocably designates and appoints
Wells Fargo to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan 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 are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, and
neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary thereof shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. 

  
 105 

 The Administrative Agent shall also act as the “collateral agent” under the Loan
Documents, and each of the Lenders (including in its capacity as a potential Hedge Bank or Cash Management Bank) and the Issuing Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the agent of such Lender and such
Issuing Lender for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Credit Parties to secure any of the Secured Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental
thereto (including to enter into additional Loan Documents or supplements to existing Loan Documents on behalf of the Secured Parties). In this connection, the Administrative Agent, as “collateral agent” and any co-agents, sub-agents
and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Article XIII for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Security Documents, or for exercising any
rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Administrative Agent, shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of Articles XIII and XIV (including Section 14.3, as though such co-agents, sub-agents and
attorneys-in-fact were the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto. 

SECTION 13.2 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 may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” 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 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. 

SECTION 13.3 Exculpatory Provisions. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set
forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent: 
 (a) shall
not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing; 
 (b) shall not
have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as
directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan 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 Loan Document or Applicable Law including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the
automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and 

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

  
 106 

 The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or
at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section
14.2 and Section 12.2) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final nonappealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to
have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, a Lender or an Issuing Lender. 

The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in
or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance
of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any
other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article VI or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent. 

SECTION 13.4 Reliance by the 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 or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be
genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and
shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an
Issuing Lender, the 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 Loan 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 13.5
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 Loan 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 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 as well as activities as Administrative Agent.

  
 107 

 SECTION 13.6 Resignation of Administrative Agent. 

(a) The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Borrower. Upon
receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an
office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such
earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, appoint a
successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date. 

(b) If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders
may, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, 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. If no such successor shall have been so
appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become
effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date. 
 (c) With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal
Effective Date (as applicable), (1) the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the
Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the Issuing Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is
appointed) and (2) except for any indemnity payments owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to
each Lender and each Issuing Lender directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent
hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Administrative Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments owed to the retiring or removed
Administrative Agent), and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent
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 resignation or removal hereunder and under the other

  
 108 

 
Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 14.3 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their
respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent. 

(d) Any resignation by, or removal of, Wells Fargo as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as an
Issuing Lender and Swingline Lender. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the
retiring Issuing Lender, if in its sole discretion it elects to, and Swingline Lender, (b) the retiring Issuing Lender and Swingline Lender shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan
Documents, and (c) the successor Issuing Lender, if in its sole discretion it elects to, shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangement
satisfactory to the retiring Issuing Lender to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring Issuing Lender with respect to such Letters of Credit. 

SECTION 13.7 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender and each Issuing Lender
acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and
decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and each Issuing Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such
documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document
furnished hereunder or thereunder. 
 SECTION 13.8 No Other Duties, Etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none
of the syndication agents, documentation agents, co-agents, book manager, lead manager, arranger, lead arranger or co-arranger listed on the cover page or signature pages hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement
or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, a Lender, the Swingline Lender or an Issuing Lender hereunder. 

SECTION 13.9 Collateral and Guaranty Matters.

(a) Each of the Lenders (including in its or any of its Affiliate’s capacities as a potential Hedge Bank or Cash Management Bank)
irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, 
 (i) to release any Lien on any
Collateral granted to or held by the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, under any Loan Document (A) upon the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitment and payment in full of all Secured Obligations (other than
(1) contingent indemnification obligations and (2) obligations and liabilities under Secured Cash Management Agreements or 

  
 109 

 
Secured Hedge Agreements as to which arrangements satisfactory to the applicable Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank shall have been made) 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 applicable Issuing Lender shall have been made), (B) that is sold or otherwise disposed of or to be sold or otherwise disposed of as
part of or in connection with any sale or other disposition permitted under the Loan Documents, or (C) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing in accordance with Section 14.2; 

(ii) to subordinate any Lien on any Collateral granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the
holder of any Permitted Lien; and 
 (iii) to release any Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under any Loan Documents
if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted under the Loan Documents. 
 Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any
time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under the
Subsidiary Guaranty Agreement pursuant to this Section 13.9. In each case as specified in this Section 13.9, the Administrative Agent will, at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Credit Party such
documents as such Credit Party may reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Security Documents or to subordinate its interest in such item, or to release such
Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under the Subsidiary Guaranty Agreement, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section 13.9. In the case of any such sale, transfer or disposal of any property
constituting Collateral in a transaction constituting an Asset Disposition permitted pursuant to Section 11.5, the Liens created by any of the Security Documents on such property shall be automatically released without need for further action
by any person. 
 (b) In the event that the Credit Parties grant a security interest in real estate, the Administrative Agent will endeavor
to give at least thirty (30) days written notice to the Lenders before taking any pledge of real estate as security for the repayment of the Secured Obligations. Upon the earlier of (a) the expiration of such 30-day period or (b) receipt of
confirmation from each Lender that such Lender has completed any necessary flood insurance due diligence to its reasonable satisfaction, the Administrative Agent may accept such a pledge of real estate. 

SECTION 13.10 Release of Liens and Guarantees of Subsidiaries. If any of the Collateral shall be sold, transferred or otherwise
disposed of by the Borrower or any other Credit Party in a transaction permitted by this Agreement (including by way of merger, consolidation or in connection with the sale of a Subsidiary permitted hereunder), then the Administrative Agent, at the
request and sole expense of the Borrower or such other Credit Party, shall execute and deliver without recourse, representation or warranty all releases or other documents necessary or desirable for the release of the Liens created by any of the
Security Documents on such Collateral. In the case of any such sale, transfer or disposal of any property constituting 

  
 110 

 
Collateral in a transaction constituting an Asset Disposition permitted pursuant to Section 11.5, the Liens created by any of the Security Documents on such property shall be automatically
released (without need for further action by any person). At the request and sole expense of the Borrower, a Subsidiary that is a Credit Party shall be released from all its obligations under this Agreement and under all other Loan Documents in
the event that all or a majority of the Capital Stock of such Subsidiary shall be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of in a transaction permitted by this Agreement (including by way of merger or consolidation), and the Administrative Agent and
the collateral agent, at the request and sole expense of the Borrower, shall execute and deliver without recourse, representation or warranty all releases or other documents necessary or desirable to evidence or confirm the foregoing. 

SECTION 13.11 Secured Hedge Agreements and Secured Cash Management Agreements. No Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank that
obtains the benefits of Section 12.4 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 Loan Document or otherwise in respect of the Collateral (including the release or impairment of any Collateral) other than in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only to the extent expressly provided in the Loan
Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article XIII 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,
Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice of such Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements, together with such supporting documentation as the
Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank, as the case may be.

 SECTION 14.2 Amendments,
Waivers and Consents. Except as set forth below or as specifically provided in any Loan Document, any term, covenant, agreement or condition of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents may be amended or waived by the
Lenders, and any consent given by the Lenders, if, but only if, such amendment, waiver or consent is in writing signed by the Required Lenders (or by the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders) and delivered to the
Administrative Agent and, in the case of an amendment, signed by the Borrower; provided, that no amendment, waiver or consent shall: 

(a) increase the Commitment of any Lender (or reinstate any Commitment terminated pursuant to Section 12.2) or the amount of Loans of
any Lender, in any case, without the written consent of such Lender; 

  
 113 

 (b) postpone any date fixed by this Agreement or any other Loan Document for any payment or
mandatory prepayment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts due to the Lenders (or any of them) or any scheduled or mandatory reduction of the Commitment hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the written consent of each Lender
directly and adversely affected thereby; 
 (c) reduce the principal of, or the rate of interest specified herein on, any Loan or
Reimbursement Obligation, or (subject to clause (iv) of the second proviso to this Section) any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the written consent of each Lender directly
and adversely affected thereby; provided that only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary (i) to waive any obligation of the Borrower to pay interest at the rate set forth in Section 5.1(c) during the continuance
of an Event of Default or (ii) to amend any financial covenant hereunder (or any defined term used therein) even if the effect of such amendment would be to reduce the rate of interest on any Loan or L/C Obligation or to reduce any fee payable
hereunder; 
 (d) change Section 5.6 or Section 12.4 in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of
payments required thereby without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby; 
 (e) except as otherwise
permitted by this Section 14.2 change any provision of this Section or reduce the percentages specified in the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to
amend, waive or otherwise modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; or 

(f) consent to the assignment or transfer by any Credit Party of such Credit Party’s rights and obligations under any Loan Document to
which it is a party (except as permitted pursuant to Section 11.4), in each case, without the written consent of each Lender; or 

(g) release (i) all of the Subsidiary Guarantors or (ii) Subsidiary Guarantors comprising substantially all of the credit support for
the Obligations, in any case, from any Subsidiary Guaranty Agreement (other than as authorized in Section 13.9), without the written consent of each Lender; or 

(h) release all or substantially all of the Collateral or release any Security Document (other than as authorized in Section 13.9 or as
otherwise specifically permitted or contemplated in this Agreement or the applicable Security Document) without the written consent of each Lender; 

provided further, that (i) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by each affected Issuing Lender in addition
to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of such Issuing Lender under this Agreement or any Letter of Credit Application relating to any Letter of Credit issued or to be issued by it; (ii) no amendment, waiver or consent
shall, unless in writing and signed by the Swingline Lender in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of the Swingline Lender under this Agreement; (iii) no amendment, waiver or

  
 114 

 
consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or
any other Loan Document; (iv) each Fee Letter may be amended, or rights or privileges thereunder waived, in a writing executed only by the parties thereto and (v) any waiver, amendment or modification of this Agreement that by its terms
affects the rights or duties under this Agreement of Lenders holding Loans or Commitments of a particular Class (but not the Lenders holding Loans or Commitments of any other Class) may be effected by an agreement or agreements in writing entered
into by the Borrower and the requisite percentage in interest of the affected Class of Lenders that would be required to consent thereto under this Section if such Class of Lenders were the only Class of Lenders hereunder at the
time. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except that (1) the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender may not be
increased or extended without the consent of such Lender and (2) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender, or all Lenders or each affected Lender holding Loans or Commitments of a particular
Class, that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender disproportionately adversely relative to other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender. 

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent on its behalf, and without
further consent, to enter into amendments or modifications to this Agreement (including amendments to this Section 14.2) or any of the other Loan Documents or to enter into additional Loan Documents as the Administrative Agent reasonably
deems appropriate in order to effectuate the terms of Section 5.14 (including, as applicable, (1) to permit any Loans made and Letters of Credit issued under Incremental Commitments to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents and (2) to include the Incremental Commitments and Extensions of Credit thereunder, in any determination of (i) Required Lenders or (ii) similar required lender terms applicable thereto); provided that
no amendment or modification shall result in any increase in the amount of any Lender’s Commitment or any increase in any Lender’s Commitment Percentage, in each case, without the written consent of such affected Lender. 

SECTION 14.3 Expenses; Indemnity. 

(a) Costs and Expenses. The Borrower and any other Credit Party, jointly and severally, shall pay (i) all reasonable out of
pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent), in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for
herein, the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or
thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable out of pocket expenses incurred by any Issuing Lender in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and
(iii) all out of pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Lender (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Lender), in connection
with the enforcement or 

  
 115 

 
protection of its rights (A) in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or (B) in connection with the Loans made or Letters
of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out of pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit. 

(b) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), each Lender
and each Issuing Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, and shall pay or reimburse any such Indemnitee for, any
and all losses, claims (including any Environmental Claims or civil penalties or fines assessed by OFAC), damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee), and shall
indemnify and hold harmless, each Indemnitee from, and shall pay or reimburse any such Indemnitee for, all fees and time charges and disbursements for attorneys who may be employees of any Indemnitee, incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against
any Indemnitee by any third party or by the Borrower or any other Credit Party arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument
contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use
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 presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by any Credit Party or any Subsidiary thereof, or any Environmental Claim related in any way to any Credit Party
or any Subsidiary, (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 any Credit Party or
any Subsidiary thereof, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, or (v) any claim (including any Environmental Claims or civil penalties or fines assessed by the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign
Assets Control), investigation, litigation or other proceeding (whether or not the Administrative Agent or any Lender is a party thereto) and the prosecution and defense thereof, arising out of or in any way connected with the Loans, this Agreement,
any other Loan Document, or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, including reasonable attorneys and consultant’s fees, provided that such indemnity shall not,
as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (A) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (B) result from a claim brought by the Borrower or any other Credit Party against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan
Document, if the Borrower or such Credit Party has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. This Section 14.3(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes
other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim. 

  
 116 

 (c) Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that the Borrower for any reason fails to
indefeasibly pay any amount required under clause (a) or (b) of this Section to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), any Issuing Lender, the Swingline 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, the Swingline Lender or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Commitment Percentage (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), such Issuing Lender or the Swingline 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), such Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under this clause (c) are subject to the provisions of Section 5.7. 

(d) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Borrower and each other Credit
Party shall not 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 Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to
in clause (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information
transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. 
 (e)
Payments. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable promptly after demand therefor. 
 SECTION 14.4 Right of
Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, each Issuing Lender, the Swingline Lender and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, after obtaining the
prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, 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 such Lender, such Issuing Lender, the Swingline 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 Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender, such Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender or any of their respective Affiliates, irrespective of whether or
not such Lender, such Issuing Lender, the Swingline Lender or any such Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan 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 such Lender, such Issuing Lender, the Swingline Lender or such Affiliate different from the branch, office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided that in
the event that 

  
 117 

 
any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the
provisions of Section 12.4 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders, the Swingline Lender and the
Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of
each Lender, each Issuing Lender, the Swingline Lender and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, such Issuing Lender, the Swingline Lender or
their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender, such Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender agree 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. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section, if at any time any Lender, any Issuing Lender or any of their respective Affiliates maintains one or more deposit accounts
for the Borrower or any other Credit Party into which Medicare or Medicaid receivables are deposited, such Person shall waive the right of setoff set forth herein. 

SECTION 14.5 Governing Law; Jurisdiction, Etc. 

(a) Governing Law. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents, unless expressly set forth therein, shall be governed by, construed
and enforced in accordance with, the law of the State of New York, without reference to the conflicts or choice of law principles thereof (other than New York General Obligations Law Section 5-1401). 

(b) Submission to Jurisdiction. The Borrower and each other Credit Party irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that it will not
commence any action, litigation or proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any Issuing Lender, the Swingline Lender, or any Related
Party of the foregoing in any way relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions relating hereto or thereto, in any forum other than the courts of the State of New York sitting in New York County, and of the United States
District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, and each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the jurisdiction of such courts and agrees that all claims in respect of any
such action, litigation or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, in such federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such
action, litigation or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document shall affect any right that
the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against the Borrower or any other Credit Party or its
properties in the courts of any jurisdiction. 

  
 118 

 (c) Waiver of Venue. The Borrower and each other Credit Party irrevocably and
unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in
any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance
of such action or proceeding in any such court. 
 (d) Service of Process. Each party hereto irrevocably consents to service of
process in the manner provided for notices in Section 14.1. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any other manner permitted by Applicable Law. 

SECTION 14.6 Waiver of Jury Trial. 

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

SECTION 14.7 Reversal of Payments. To the extent any Credit Party makes a payment or payments to the Administrative Agent for the
ratable benefit of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent receives any payment or proceeds of the Collateral which payments or proceeds or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or
required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any Debtor Relief Law, other Applicable Law or equitable cause, the Obligations or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as
if such payment or proceeds had not been received by the Administrative Agent. 
 SECTION 14.8 Injunctive Relief; Punitive
Damages.
 (a) The Borrower recognizes that, in the event the Borrower fails to perform, observe or discharge any of its obligations or
liabilities under this Agreement, any remedy of law may prove to be inadequate relief to the Lenders. Therefore, the Borrower agrees that the Lenders, at the Lenders’ option, shall be entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief in any
such case without the necessity of proving actual damages. 
 (b) The Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower (on behalf of itself
and the other Credit Parties) hereby agree that no such Person shall have a remedy of punitive or exemplary damages against any other party to a Loan Document and each such Person hereby 

  
 119 

 
waives any right or claim to punitive or exemplary damages that they may now have or may arise in the future in connection with any Dispute, whether such Dispute is resolved through arbitration
or judicially (provided, however, that the foregoing shall not limit the obligations of the Borrower under Section 14.3(b) with respect to claims made by third parties against an Indemnitee.) 

SECTION 14.9 Accounting Matters. If at any time any change in GAAP would affect the computation of any financial ratio or
requirement set forth in any Loan Document, and either the Borrower or the Required Lenders shall so request, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower shall negotiate in good faith to amend such ratio or requirement to preserve the
original intent thereof in light of such change in GAAP (subject to the approval of the Required Lenders); provided that, until so amended, (i) such ratio or requirement shall continue to be computed in accordance with GAAP prior to such
change therein and (ii) the Borrower shall provide to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders financial statements and other documents required under this Agreement or as reasonably requested hereunder setting forth a reconciliation between
calculations of such ratio or requirement made before and after giving effect to such change in GAAP. 
 SECTION 14.10 Successors and
Assigns; 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, except that neither the Borrower nor any other Credit Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without
the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of
paragraph (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (d) of this Section or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security
interest subject to the restrictions of paragraph (f) of this Section (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 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 assignees all or a portion of its rights and
obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Revolving Credit Commitment and the Loans 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 Revolving Credit Commitment and
the Loans at the time owing to it 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; and 

  
 120 

 (B) in any case not described in paragraph (b)(i)(A) of
this Section, the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Revolving Credit Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the
Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the
Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than $5,000,000, in the case of any assignment in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility, or $1,000,000, in the case of any assignment in respect of the Term Loan Facility, unless
each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, that the Borrower shall be deemed
to have given its consent to any such assignment ten (10) Business Days after the date written notice thereof has been delivered to the Borrower by the assigning Lender (through the Administrative Agent) unless such consent is expressly refused by
the Borrower by such tenth (10th) Business Day; 
 (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 Loan or the Revolving Credit Commitment assigned; 

(iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by
paragraph (b)(i)(B) of this Section and, in addition: 
 (A) the consent of the Borrower (such
consent not to be unreasonably withheld) shall be required unless (x) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (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 ten (10) Business Days after the date written notice thereof has been delivered to the Borrower by the assigning Lender (through the Administrative Agent)
unless such consent is expressly refused by the Borrower by such tenth (10th) Business Day; 
 (B) the consent of the
Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments in respect of (i) the Revolving Credit Facility if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender with a Revolving Credit
Commitment, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender or (ii) the Term Loan Facility to a Person who is not a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; and 

(C) the consents of the Issuing Lenders and the Swingline Lender (such consents not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed)
shall be required for any assignment that increases the obligation of the assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit (whether or not then outstanding) or for any assignment in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility.

  
 121 

 (iv) Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall
execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 for each assignment (provided, that only one such fee will be payable in connection with simultaneous
assignments to two or more Approved Funds by a Lender), and 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 the Borrower or any of the
Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries. 
 (vi) No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be
made to a natural person. 
 (vii) Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and
obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, 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 Loans previously requested, but not funded by, the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably
consent), to (A) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders, the Swingline Lender and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (B)
acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans in accordance with its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in
the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under Applicable Law 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, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest
assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its
obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be
entitled to the benefits of Sections 5.8, 5.9, 5.10, 5.11 and 14.3 

  
 122 

 
with respect to facts 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. 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. 
 (c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at
one of its offices in Charlotte, North Carolina, a copy of each Assignment and Assumption and each Joinder Agreement delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Revolving Credit Commitment
of, and principal amounts of (and stated interest on) the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive 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, notwithstanding notice to the
contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender (but only to the extent of entries in the Register that are applicable to such Lender), at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior
notice. 
 (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 the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (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 Revolving Credit Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged,
(ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, Issuing Lenders, Swingline Lender and the other Lenders shall continue
to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. 
 Any
agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this
Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver or modification described in Section 14.2 that directly
affects such Participant and could not be effected by a vote of the Required Lenders only. Subject to paragraph (e) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of
Sections 5.8, 5.9, 5.10 and 5.11 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by
law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 14.4 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 5.6 as though it were a Lender. 

  
 123 

 Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary
agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant of such Lender and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each such Participant’s interest in the Commitments, Loans, Letters of
Credit and other obligations under the Loan Documents (each a “Participation Register”); provided that, except as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of its
Participation Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the
extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in each Participation
Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and each Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in such Lender’s Participant Register as the owner of the related 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. 

(e) Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 5.9,
5.10 and 5.11 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, 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. No Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.10 or 5.11 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such
Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Sections 5.11(g) and 5.12 as though it were a Lender. 

(f) 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. 
 (g) Assignment by Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith
Incorporated. The parties hereby agree that Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated may, without notice to the Credit Parties, assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement to any other registered broker-dealer
wholly owned by Bank of America Corporation to which all or substantially all of Bank of America Corporation’s or any of its subsidiaries’ investment banking, commercial lending services or related businesses may be transferred following
the date of this Agreement. 
 SECTION 14.11 Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing
Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees,
agents, advisors and other representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the
extent requested by, or required to be disclosed to, any regulatory or similar authority 

  
 124 

 
purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by Applicable Laws
or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies under this Agreement, under any other Loan Document or under any Secured Hedge Agreement or
Secured Cash Management Agreement, or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any Secured Hedge Agreement or Secured Cash Management Agreement, or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder,
(f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any nationally recognized rating agency in connection with rating the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or the Credit Facility,
(ii) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, (iii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative
transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations, (iv) to an investor or prospective investor in an Approved Fund that also agrees that Information shall be used solely for the purpose of evaluating an investment in such Approved Fund,
(v) to a trustee, collateral manager, servicer, backup servicer, noteholder or secured party in an Approved Fund in connection with the administration, servicing and reporting on the assets serving as collateral for an Approved Fund, or
(vi) to a nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information regarding the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, the Loans and Loan Documents in connection with ratings issued with respect to an Approved Fund, (g) with the
consent of the Borrower, (h) to Gold Sheets and other similar bank trade publications, such information to consist of deal terms and other information customarily found in such publications, (i) to the extent such Information
(x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any Issuing Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a
source other than the Borrower or (j) to governmental regulatory authorities in connection with any regulatory examination of the Administrative Agent or any Lender or in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s
regulatory compliance policy if the Administrative Agent or such Lender deems necessary for the mitigation of claims by those authorities against the Administrative Agent or such Lender or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates. For purposes of
this Section, “Information” means all information received from any Credit Party or any Subsidiary thereof relating to any Credit Party or any Subsidiary thereof or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information
that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by any Credit Party or any Subsidiary thereof; provided that, in the case of information received from a Credit
Party or any Subsidiary thereof after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be
considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. 

SECTION 14.12 Performance of Duties. Each Credit Party’s obligations under this Agreement and each of the other Loan
Documents shall be performed by such Credit Party at its sole cost and expense, except to the extent specifically provided to the contrary in any Loan Document. 

  
 125 

 SECTION 14.13 All Powers Coupled with Interest. All powers of attorney and other
authorizations granted to the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and any Persons designated by the Administrative Agent or any Lender pursuant to any provisions of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents shall be deemed coupled with an
interest and shall be irrevocable so long as any of the Obligations remain unpaid or unsatisfied, any of the Commitments remain in effect or the Credit Facility has not been terminated. 

SECTION 14.14 Survival.

(a) All representations and warranties set forth in Article VII and all representations and warranties contained in any certificate, or
any of the Loan Documents (including any such representation or warranty made in or in connection with any amendment thereto) shall constitute representations and warranties made under this Agreement. All representations and warranties made
under this Agreement shall be made or deemed to be made at and as of the Closing Date (except those that are expressly made as of a specific date), shall survive the Closing Date and shall not be waived by the execution and delivery of this
Agreement, any investigation made by or on behalf of the Lenders or any borrowing hereunder. 
 (b) Notwithstanding any termination of this
Agreement, the indemnities to which the Administrative Agent and the Lenders are entitled under the provisions of this Article XIV and any other provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall continue in full force and effect
and shall protect the Administrative Agent and the Lenders against events arising after such termination as well as before. 
 SECTION 14.15
Titles and Captions. Titles and captions of Articles, Sections and subsections in, and the table of contents of, this Agreement are for convenience only, and neither limit nor amplify the provisions of this Agreement. 

SECTION 14.16 Severability of Provisions. Any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document which is prohibited or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions hereof or thereof or
affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 SECTION 14.17 Counterparts; Integration;
Effectiveness; Electronic Execution. 
 (a) Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in
counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed signature page of this
Agreement by facsimile transmission or in electronic format (i.e., “pdf” or “tif”) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterparty hereof. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and any separate
letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent, constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written,
relating to the subject matter hereof. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Loan 

  
 126 

 
Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control; provided that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in any other
Loan Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement. Each Loan Document was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in
accordance with the fair meaning thereof. Except as provided in Section 6.1, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received
counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto.
 (b) Electronic Execution of
Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic
form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law,
including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. 

SECTION 14.18 Term of Agreement. This Agreement shall remain in effect from the Closing Date through and including the date
upon which all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not then due) arising hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall have been indefeasibly and irrevocably paid and satisfied in full and the Revolving Credit
Commitment has been terminated. No termination of this Agreement shall affect the rights and obligations of the parties hereto arising prior to such termination or in respect of any provision of this Agreement which survives such termination.

 SECTION 14.19 USA Patriot Act. The Administrative Agent and each Lender hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to
the requirements of the PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower and Subsidiary Guarantors, which information includes the name and address of each Borrower and Subsidiary Guarantor and other
information that will allow such Lender to identify such Borrower or Subsidiary Guarantor in accordance with the PATRIOT Act. 
 SECTION
14.20 No Fiduciary Duty. The Administrative Agent, each Lender and their Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes of this paragraph, the “Lenders”) may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Borrower, its
stockholders and/or its Affiliates. The Borrower agrees that nothing in the Loan Documents or otherwise will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Lender, on the one hand,
and the Borrower, its stockholders or its Affiliates, on the other. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that (i) the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are
arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Borrower, on the other, and (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto, (x) no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility
in favor of the Borrower, its stockholders or its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with 

  
 127 

 
respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or will advise the Borrower, its stockholders or its Affiliates on other
matters) or any other obligation to the Borrower except the obligations expressly set forth in the Loan Documents and (y) each Lender is acting solely as principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of the Borrower, its management, stockholders,
creditors or any other Person. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that it has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect
to such transactions and the process leading thereto. The Borrower agrees that it will not claim that any Lender has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty, to the Borrower in connection with
such transactions or the process leading thereto. 
 SECTION 14.21 Inconsistencies with Other Documents; Independent Effect.

(a) In the event there is a conflict or inconsistency between this Agreement and any other Loan Document, the terms of this Agreement shall
control; provided that any provision of the Security Documents which imposes additional burdens on the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or further restricts the rights of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or gives the Administrative
Agent or Lenders additional rights shall not be deemed to be in conflict or inconsistent with this Agreement and shall be given full force and effect. 

(b) The Borrower expressly acknowledges and agrees that each covenant contained in Article VIII, IX, X or XI hereof
shall be given independent effect. Accordingly, the Borrower shall not engage in any transaction or other act otherwise permitted under any covenant contained in Article VIII, IX, X or XI if, before or after giving
effect to such transaction or act, the Borrower shall or would be in breach of any other covenant contained in Article VIII, IX, X or XI. 

SECTION 14.22 Judgment Currency. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum
due hereunder or any other Loan 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 the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder or under the other Loan 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 Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, 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 the Administrative Agent or any
Lender from the Borrower in the Agreement Currency, the Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent or such Lender, 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 the Administrative Agent or any Lender in such currency, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, 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 law). 

  
 128 

 SECTION 14.23 Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial
Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution
arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by: 

(a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder that may
be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and 
 (b) the effects of any Bail-in Action on any such
liability, including, if applicable: 
 (i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability; 

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial
Institution, its parent entity or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability
under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or 
 (iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with
the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of any EEA Resolution Authority. 
 SECTION 14.24 Effect of Amendment and
Restatement. On the Closing Date, the Existing Credit Agreement shall be amended and restated in its entirety as set forth herein. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (a) this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents
executed and delivered in connection herewith do not constitute a novation, payment and reborrowing, or termination of the “Obligations” (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) under the Existing Credit Agreement as in effect prior
to the Closing Date; (b) such “Obligations” are in all respects continuing (as amended and restated hereby) with only the terms thereof being modified as provided in this Agreement; and (c) the security interests and other Liens granted
under the Loan Documents (whether delivered hereunder or in connection with the Existing Credit Agreement) securing payment of such “Obligations” are in all respects continuing and in full force and effect and secure the payment of the
Secured Obligations (as defined in this Agreement).
