 AMENDED AND RESTAETD CREDIT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) dated as of
December [14], 2022 among TAMPA ELECTRIC COMPANY, a Florida corporation (“Borrower”), the LENDERS party hereto and WELLS FARGO BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as Administrative Agent. 

RECITALS 
 Borrower, certain
Lenders and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent thereunder are parties to the Credit Agreement dated as of December 17, 2021 (the “Existing Credit Agreement”). 

Borrower desires to enter into, and the Lenders are willing to provide, the 364-day senior unsecured
term loan credit facility set forth herein and requests certain amendments to the provisions of the Existing Credit Agreement and the Lenders are willing to make such amendments on the terms and conditions hereof, and, accordingly, the parties
hereto agree to amend and restate the Existing Credit Agreement as follows: 
 ARTICLE I 

DEFINITIONS 
 1.1
Definitions. Except as otherwise expressly provided, capitalized terms used in this Agreement and its exhibits shall have the meanings given in Exhibit A. 

1.2 Rules of Interpretation . Except as otherwise expressly provided, the Rules of Interpretation set forth in Exhibit A shall
apply to this Agreement and the other Credit Facility Documents. 
 ARTICLE II 

THE FACILITY 
 2.1 The
Facility. 
 2.1.1 Loans. 

2.1.1.1 Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, each Lender severally agrees to make Loans in a
single drawing on the Closing Date to Borrower in the full amount of such Lender’s Commitment. Amounts borrowed under this Section 2.1.1.1 and prepaid or repaid under Section 2.1.6 may not be reborrowed. The Commitments of all the
Lenders shall be automatically and permanently terminated on the Closing Date after giving effect to the borrowing to be made on the Closing Date. 

2.1.1.2 The Borrowing. The Loans were made initially on the Closing Date to the account to which the proceeds of the Borrowing
were credited, as contemplated by Section 2.1.1.3(d), and shall be continued on the Amendment Effective Date as SOFR Loans with an initial Interest Period of one month in the aggregate amount of $400,000,000. 

2.1.1.3 Loan Funding. 

(a) [Reserved] 
 (b) Pro Rata
Loans. Each Loan shall be made on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their respective Proportionate Shares, with each Borrowing to consist of a Loan by each Lender equal to such Lender’s Proportionate Share of such
Borrowing. 

  
 1 

 (c) Lender Funding. Each Lender shall, before 12:00 noon on the date of the Borrowing,
make available to Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office, in same day funds, such Lender’s Proportionate Share of the Borrowing. The failure of any Lender to make the Loan to be made by it as part of the Borrowing shall
not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to make its Loan on the date of the Borrowing. No Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Loan to be made by such other Lender on the date of the Borrowing.

 (d) Funding of Loans. No later than 2:00 p.m. on the Closing Date, if the applicable conditions precedent listed in Article III have
been satisfied or waived and to the extent Administrative Agent shall have received the appropriate funds from the Lenders, Administrative Agent shall make available the Loans in Dollars and in immediately available funds, at Administrative
Agent’s Office, and shall transfer such funds to the bank account(s) specified by Borrower in writing to Administrative Agent before the Closing Date in accordance with Section 3.2.3. 

2.1.2 Interest Provisions Applicable to all Loans. 

2.1.2.1 Loan Interest Rates. Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan from the date of such Loan until
the maturity or prepayment thereof at one of the following rates per annum: 
 (a) With respect to the principal portion of each Loan that
is, and during such periods as such Loan is, a Base Rate Loan, at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate; and 

(b) With respect to the principal portion of each Loan that is, and during such periods as such Loan is, a SOFR Loan, at a rate per annum
during each Interest Period for such SOFR Loan equal to the Adjusted Term SOFR for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate. 

2.1.2.2 Interest Provisions. Unless otherwise specified by Borrower in a Notice of Conversion of Loan Type and except as otherwise
provided for herein, all Loans shall bear interest based on Adjusted Term SOFR with a one month Interest Period, and subject to the applicable limitations set forth herein, Loans shall bear interest based upon Adjusted Term SOFR as specified by
Borrower in the notice of borrowing delivered in connection with the Amendment Effective Date or in a Notice of Conversion of Loan Type. Borrower shall not request, and the Lenders shall not be obligated to make, SOFR Loans at any time an Inchoate
Default or Event of Default exists. If an Event of Default exists at the end of an Interest Period, the SOFR Loans whose Interest Period is then ending shall automatically convert to Base Rate Loans at such time (notwithstanding the delivery of a
Confirmation of Interest Period Selection with respect to such Loans). 
 2.1.2.3 Interest Payment Dates. Borrower shall pay accrued
interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan (i) in the case of each Base Rate Loan, on the last Banking Day of each calendar quarter, (ii) in the case of each SOFR Loan, on the last day of each Interest Period related to each SOFR
Loan and, with respect to Interest Periods longer than three months, on each successive date three months after the first day of such Interest Period, and (iii) in all cases, upon prepayment (to the extent thereof and including any optional
prepayments), upon conversion from one Type of Loan to another Type, and at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise). 

  
 2 

 2.1.2.4 Interest Periods and Selection. 

(a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) Borrower may not at any time have outstanding more than eight different
Interest Periods relating to SOFR Loans; and (ii) SOFR Loans for each Interest Period shall be in the amount of at least $5,000,000. 

(b) Borrower may contact Administrative Agent at any time prior to the end of an Interest Period for a quotation of interest rates in effect
at such time for given Interest Periods and Administrative Agent shall promptly provide such quotation. Borrower may select an Interest Period telephonically, which selection shall be irrevocable on and after commencement of the applicable Minimum
Notice Period. Borrower shall confirm such telephonic notice to Administrative Agent by telecopy on the day such notice is given (in substantially the form of Exhibit E-3, a “Confirmation of Interest
Period Selection”) and Administrative Agent shall promptly forward the same to the Lenders. Borrower shall promptly deliver to Administrative Agent the original of the Confirmation of Interest Period Selection initially delivered by telecopy.
If Borrower fails to notify Administrative Agent of the next Interest Period for any SOFR Loans in accordance with this Section 2.1.2.4(b), such Loans shall automatically convert to Base Rate Loans on the last day of the current Interest Period
therefor. Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable (and, in any case, within two Banking Days after delivery of the Confirmation of Interest Period Selection by telecopy as provided for above) notify Borrower of each determination of the
interest rate applicable to each Loan. 
 2.1.2.5 Interest Account and Interest Computations. Borrower authorizes Administrative
Agent to record in an account or accounts maintained by Administrative Agent on its books (i) the interest rates applicable to all Loans and the effective dates of all changes thereto, (ii) the Interest Period for each SOFR Loan,
(iii) the date and amount of each principal and interest payment on each Loan and (iv) such other information as Administrative Agent may determine is necessary for the computation of interest payable by Borrower hereunder. Borrower agrees
that all computations by Administrative Agent of interest shall be conclusive in the absence of demonstrable error. All computations of interest on Loans shall be based upon a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the
Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed
(including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate or Adjusted Term SOFR shall be determined by Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

2.1.3 Conversion of Loans. Borrower may convert any Loan from one Type of Loan to another Type; provided, however, that
(i) any conversion of SOFR Loans into Base Rate Loans shall be made on, and only on, the first day after the last day of an Interest Period for such SOFR Loans, and (ii) Loans shall be converted only in amounts of $5,000,000 and increments
of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Borrower shall request such a conversion by a written notice to Administrative Agent in the form of Exhibit E-2, appropriately completed (a “Notice of Conversion
of Loan Type”), which specifies: 
 (a) the Loans, or portion thereof, which are to be converted; 

(b) the Type into which such Loans, or portion thereof, are to be converted; 

(c) if such Loans are to be converted into SOFR Loans, the initial Interest Period selected by Borrower for such Loans in accordance with
Section 2.1.2.4(b); and 
 (d) the date of the requested conversion, which shall be a Banking Day. 

  
 3 

 Borrower shall give each Notice of Conversion of Loan Type to Administrative Agent so as to
provide at least the applicable Minimum Notice Period. Any Notice of Conversion of Loan Type may be modified or revoked by Borrower through the Banking Day prior to the Minimum Notice Period, and shall thereafter be irrevocable. Each Notice of
Conversion of Loan Type shall be delivered by first-class mail or telecopy to Administrative Agent at the office or to the telecopy number and as otherwise specified in Section 8.1; provided, however, that Borrower shall promptly
deliver to Administrative Agent the original of any Notice of Conversion of Loan Type initially delivered by telecopy. Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the contents of each Notice of Conversion of Loan Type. 

2.1.4 Loan Principal Payment. Borrower shall repay to Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender on the Maturity Date the
unpaid principal amount of each Loan made by such Lender. Upon payment in full of the aggregate principal amount of the Loans, all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other amounts owed by Borrower to Administrative Agent or the Lenders
hereunder and under the other Credit Facility Documents, the Lenders shall promptly mark any Notes cancelled and return such cancelled Notes to Borrower. 

2.1.5 Promissory Notes. The obligation of Borrower to repay the Loans made by each Lender and to pay interest thereon at the rates
provided herein shall, upon the written request of any Lender, be evidenced by promissory notes in the form of Exhibit C (each, a “Note”), payable to such Lender and in the principal amount of such Lender’s Commitment. Borrower
authorizes each Lender to record on the schedule annexed to such Lender’s Note, and/or in such Lender’s internal records, the date and amount of each Loan made by such Lender, and each payment or prepayment of principal thereunder and
agrees that all such notations shall constitute prima facie evidence of the matters noted. Borrower further authorizes each Lender to attach to and make a part of such Lender’s Note continuations of the schedule attached thereto as necessary.
No failure to make any such notations, nor any errors in making any such notations shall affect the validity of Borrower’s obligation to repay the full unpaid principal amount of the Loans or the duties of Borrower hereunder or thereunder. 

2.1.6 Optional Prepayments. Borrower may, at its option and without penalty, upon notice to Administrative Agent before 12:00 noon on
the date of prepayment (which shall be a Banking Day), in the case of Base Rate Loans, or upon at least three Banking Days’ notice to Administrative Agent, in the case of SOFR Loans, prepay any Loans in whole or in part in an amount of
$5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (except in the case of a prepayment of all the Loans). Upon the prepayment of any Loan, Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent for the account of the Lender which made such Loan
(i) all accrued interest and fees to the date of such prepayment on the amount prepaid and (ii) if such prepayment is the prepayment of a SOFR Loan on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period for such SOFR Loan, all Liquidation
Costs incurred by such Lender as a result of such prepayment (pursuant to the terms of Section 2.8). 
 2.2 Retiring Lenders .
With respect to the loans outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement immediately prior to the Amendment Effective Date, Borrower shall borrow Loans from the Lenders, and the Lenders shall make Loans to Borrower, and (notwithstanding the
provisions of Section 2.6 requiring that borrowings and prepayments be made ratably in accordance with the principal amounts of the Loans held by the Lenders) Borrower shall repay in full the principal of and interest on all of the Loans made
by the Retiring Lenders to Borrower hereunder (together with any other amounts payable hereunder to such Retiring Lender in connection with their respective “Loans” under (and as defined in) the Existing Credit Agreement) and to the extent
necessary shall repay the principal of the Loans made by the Lenders to Borrower, in each case together with any amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.8 and 3.1.10

as a result of such payment, so that after giving effect to such Loans and prepayments, the Loans shall be held by the Lenders in the amounts set forth on Schedule 1. To effect the foregoing
payments, the related transfers of funds shall be netted to the extent necessary to minimize the actual flows of funds between the relevant parties. 

2.3 [Reserved] 
 2.4
[Reserved] 
 2.5 Other Payment Terms. 

2.5.1 Place and Manner. Borrower shall make all payments due to each Lender hereunder to the Administrative Agent’s Office, for
the account of such Lender, to an account specified by Administrative Agent to Borrower for such purpose, in lawful money of the United States and in immediately available funds not later than 12:00 noon on the date on which such payment is due,
without set-off or counterclaim. Any payment received after such time on any day shall be deemed received on the Banking Day after such payment is received. Administrative Agent shall disburse to each Lender
each such payment received by Administrative Agent for such Lender, such disbursement to occur on the day such payment is received if received by 12:00 noon, otherwise on the next Banking Day. 

2.5.2 Date. Whenever any payment due hereunder shall fall due on a day other than a Banking Day, such payment shall be made on the next
succeeding Banking Day, and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of interest or fees, as the case may be, without duplication of any interest or fees so paid in the next subsequent calculation of interest or fees payable. 

2.5.3 Late Payments. If any amounts required to be paid by Borrower under this Agreement or the other Credit Facility Documents
(including principal or interest payable on any Loan, and any fees or other amounts otherwise payable to Administrative Agent or any Lender) remain unpaid after such overdue amounts are due, Borrower shall pay interest (including following any
Bankruptcy Event with respect to Borrower) on the aggregate, outstanding balance of such amounts from the date due until those amounts are paid in full at a per annum rate equal to the Default Rate. 

2.5.4 Net of Taxes, Etc. 

2.5.4.1 Taxes. Subject to each Lender’s compliance with Section 2.5.7, any and all payments to or for the benefit of
Administrative Agent or any Lender by Borrower hereunder or under any other Credit Facility Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction, setoff or counterclaim of any kind whatsoever and in such amounts as may be necessary in
order that all such payments, after deduction for or on account of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, shall be equal to the amounts otherwise specified to be paid under this Agreement and the other Credit Facility Documents. If Borrower shall be
required by law to withhold or deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any other Credit Facility Document to Administrative Agent or any Lender, (i) the sum payable shall be increased
as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, as applicable (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.5.4), Administrative Agent or such Lender
receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the Governmental Authority in accordance with
applicable law, rule or regulation. In addition, Borrower agrees to pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, rule or regulation. 

  
 5 

 2.5.4.2 Indemnity. Borrower shall indemnify each Lender for and hold it harmless
against the full amount of Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.5.4) paid by any Lender, or any liability (including penalties,
interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted; provided that Borrower shall not be obligated to indemnify any Lender for any penalties, interest
or expenses relating to Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes arising from such Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Each Lender agrees to give notice to Borrower of the assertion of any claim against such Lender relating to such
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as promptly as is practicable after being notified of such assertion, and in no event later than 90 days after the principal officer of such Lender responsible for administering this Agreement obtains knowledge
thereof; provided that any Lender’s failure to notify Borrower of such assertion within such 90 day period shall not relieve Borrower of its obligation under this Section 2.5.4 with respect to Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes,
penalties, interest or expenses arising prior to the end of such period, but shall relieve Borrower of its obligations under this Section 2.5.4 with respect to Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes, penalties, interest or expenses accruing between
the end of such period and such time as Borrower receives notice from such Lender as provided herein. Payments by Borrower pursuant to this indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date such Lender makes written demand therefor
(submitted through Administrative Agent), which demand shall be accompanied by a certificate describing in reasonable detail the basis thereof. 

2.5.4.3 Notice. Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes by Borrower, Borrower shall furnish to Administrative Agent, at
its address referred to in Section 8.1, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof or if such receipt is not obtainable, other evidence of such payment by Borrower reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent.
Borrower shall compensate each Lender for all reasonable losses and expenses sustained by such Lender as a result of any failure by Borrower to so furnish such copy of such receipt. 

2.5.4.4 FATCA. If a payment made to a Lender under this Agreement or any other Credit Facility Document would be subject to U.S.
Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver
to Borrower and Administrative Agent (each, a “Withholding Agent”), at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by any Withholding Agent, as the case may be, 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 such Withholding Agent as may be necessary for such Withholding Agent to comply with its obligations
under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has or has not 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 Section 2.5.4.4, FATCA shall
include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. 
 2.5.4.5 Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party
determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.5.4 (including additional amounts paid pursuant to this Section 2.5.4),
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 any 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 to such indemnifying party pursuant to the previous sentence (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant
Governmental Authority) in the event such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary 

  
 6 

 
in this Section 2.5.4.5, in no event will any indemnified party be required to pay any amount to any indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 2.5.4.5 if such payment would place such
indemnified party in a less favorable position (on a net after-Tax basis) than such indemnified party would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had
never been paid. This Section 2.5.4.5 shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other
Person. 
 2.5.4.6 Survival of Obligations. The obligations of Borrower under this Section 2.5.4 shall survive the termination
of this Agreement and the repayment of the Obligations. 
 2.5.5 Application of Payments. Payments made under this Agreement or the
other Credit Facility Documents shall (a) first be applied to any fees, costs, charges or expenses due and payable to Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder or under the other Credit Facility Documents, (b) next to any accrued but
unpaid interest then due and owing and (c) then to outstanding principal then due and payable or otherwise to be prepaid. 
 2.5.6
Failure to Pay Administrative Agent. Unless Administrative Agent shall have received notice from Borrower at least two Banking Days prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders hereunder that Borrower will not make such
payment in full, Administrative Agent may assume that Borrower has made such payment in full to Administrative Agent on such date and Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Lender on such due date
an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to Administrative Agent, such Lender shall repay to Administrative Agent forthwith upon demand such amount distributed to
such Lender, together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate
determined by Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules for interbank compensation. A certificate of Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing by such Lender under this Section 2.5.6
shall be conclusive in the absence of demonstrable error. 
 2.5.7 Withholding Exemption Certificates. Each Lender that is not a
United States person within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code upon becoming a Lender hereunder including any entity to which any Lender grants a participation or otherwise transfers its interest in this Agreement, agrees that it
will deliver to Administrative Agent and Borrower an executed copy of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY, W-8ECI or
W-8BEN or successor applicable form, as the case may be, certifying in each case that such Lender is not a United States person and, to the extent applicable, is entitled to receive payments under this
Agreement with an exemption or reduction of the deduction or withholding of any United States Federal income taxes. Each Lender which delivers to Borrower and Administrative Agent a Form W-8IMY, W-8ECI or W-8BEN pursuant to the preceding sentence further undertakes to deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent further copies of the said letter and Form W-8IMY, W-8ECI or W-8BEN, or successor applicable forms, or other manner of certification or procedure, as the case may be,
on or before the date that any such letter or form expires or becomes obsolete or within a reasonable time after gaining knowledge of the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent letter and forms previously delivered by it to
Borrower, and such extensions or renewals thereof as may reasonably be requested by Borrower, certifying in the case of a Form W-8IMY, W-8ECI or W-8BEN that such Lender is not a United States person and, to the extent applicable, is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement with an exemption or reduction of the deduction or withholding of any United
States Federal income taxes, unless in any such cases an event (including any change in any treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required which renders all such forms inapplicable or
which would reasonably prevent a Lender from duly completing and delivering any 

  
 7 

 
such letter or form with respect to it and such Lender advises Borrower that it is not capable of receiving payments with an exemption or reduction of any deduction or withholding of United
States Federal income tax, and in the case of Form W-8IMY, W-8ECI or W-8BEN, establishing an exemption from United States
backup withholding tax. In the case of a Lender entitled to an exemption from the withholding of United States federal income tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest,” such Lender
shall also deliver to Administrative Agent and Borrower with its Form W-8IMY, W-8ECI and W-8BEN or successor applicable form, as
the case may be, a certificate, or certificates, to the effect that such Lender (or in the case of a Form W-8IMY, such Lender’s beneficial owners to the extent applicable) is not (A) a
“bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code and (C) a “controlled foreign
corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code. Each Lender providing such a certificate shall provide a new certificate at any time thereafter when a change in such Lender’s circumstances renders an existing certificate
obsolete or invalid or requires a new certificate to be provided, and within fifteen Banking Days after a reasonable written request of Administrative Agent or Borrower from time to time; provided that it shall not be a breach of this
Section 2.5.7 if such Lender is unable to provide such certificate as a result of a Change of Law after the date it becomes a Lender hereunder. Each Lender that is a United States person within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the
Code shall provide an executed copy of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or successor applicable form, as the case may be, at the times specified for the delivery of forms under this
Section 2.5.7 with respect to Forms W-8IMY, W-8ECI and W-8BEN or successor applicable form, as the case may be. Borrower
shall not be obligated, however, to pay any additional amounts in respect of United States Federal income tax pursuant to Section 2.5.4.1 (or make an indemnification payment pursuant to Section 2.5.4.2) to any Lender (including any entity
to which any Lender sells, assigns, grants a participation in, or otherwise transfers its rights under this Agreement) if the obligation to pay such additional amounts (or such indemnification) would not have arisen but for a failure of such Lender
to comply with its obligations under this Section 2.5.7. 
 2.5.8 Certain Deductions by Administrative Agent. If any
Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.5.6 or Section 7.5, then Administrative Agent may, in its discretion and notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, (a) apply any amounts
thereafter received by Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender for the benefit of Administrative Agent to satisfy such Lender’s obligations to Administrative Agent under such Section until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully
paid, and/or (b) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Lender under any such Section, in the case of each of clauses (a) and (b) above, in any order
as determined by Administrative Agent in its discretion. 
 2.6 Pro Rata Treatment. 

2.6.1 Borrowings, Payments, Etc. Except as otherwise provided herein, (a) each Borrowing shall be made or allocated among
the Lenders pro rata according to their respective Proportionate Shares then in effect and (b) each payment of principal of or interest on the Loans shall be shared among the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the amounts of such
principal, interest or fees, as the case may be, then due and payable to them. 
 2.6.2 Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender shall
obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) hereunder in excess of its ratable share of payments in accordance with Section 2.6.1, such
Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders to which such payments were required to be made such participations in the Loans as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them;
provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of

  
 8 

 
such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this Section 2.6.2 shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the
express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to Borrower or any subsidiary or Affiliate thereof
(as to which the provisions of this Section 2.6.2 shall apply). Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 2.6.2 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its
rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of Borrower in the amount of such participation. 

2.7 Change of Circumstances. 

2.7.1 SOFR 
 2.7.1.1
Illegality. If any Change of Law shall make it unlawful or impossible for any Lender to make or maintain any SOFR Loan, such Lender shall immediately notify Administrative Agent and Borrower of such Change of Law. Upon receipt of such notice,
(a) Borrower’s right to request the making of or conversion to, and the Lenders’ obligations to make or convert to, SOFR Loans, as the case may be, shall be suspended for so long as such condition shall exist, and (b) Borrower
shall, at the request of such Lender, either (i) pursuant to Section 2.1.3, convert any then outstanding SOFR Loans into Base Rate Loans at the end of the current Interest Periods for such Loans, or (ii) immediately repay or convert
(at Borrower’s option) SOFR Loans into Base Rate Loans if such Lender shall notify Borrower that such Lender may not lawfully continue to fund and maintain such Loans as SOFR Loans. Any conversion or prepayment of SOFR Loans made pursuant to
the preceding sentence prior to the last day of an Interest Period for such Loans shall be deemed a prepayment thereof for purposes of Section 2.8. 

2.7.1.2 Alternate Rate of Interest. 

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Credit Facility Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related
Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (1) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such
Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Credit Facility Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or
further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Credit Facility Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for
such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Credit Facility Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5th) Banking Day after
the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Credit Facility Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not
received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. 
 (b) In
connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other
Credit Facility Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Credit Facility Document. 

  
 9 

 (c) The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of
(i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes,
(iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to clause (e) below and (v) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the
Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 2.7.1.2, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or
non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or
their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Credit Facility Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.7.1.2. 

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Credit Facility Document, at any time (including in connection with the
implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including the Term SOFR Reference Rate) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that
publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information
announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable
or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a
Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of
“Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor. 
 (e) Upon the
Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any request for a SOFR Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of SOFR Loans to be made, converted or continued during any
Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a
tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of Base Rate. 

2.7.2 Inability to Determine Rates. Subject to Section 2.7.1 above, if for any reason in connection with any request for a SOFR
Loan or a conversion to or continuation thereof, (i) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining Adjusted Term SOFR for any
requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed SOFR Loan or in connection with an existing or proposed Base Rate Loan; provided that no Benchmark Transition Event shall have occurred at such time, or (ii) the Administrative Agent is
advised by the Required Lenders that Adjusted Term SOFR for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed SOFR Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, the Administrative Agent shall
promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, (A) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain SOFR Loans shall be suspended and (B) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to
the Adjusted Term SOFR component of the Alternate Base Rate, the utilization of the Adjusted Term SOFR component in determining the Alternate Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case, until the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the
Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of SOFR Loans or, failing that, shall be deemed to have converted such request into a
request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein. 

  
 10 

 2.7.3 Increased Costs. If any Change of Law shall: 

2.7.3.1 impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including pursuant to regulations issued from time to time by the Federal Reserve Board
for determining the maximum reserve requirement (including any emergency, special, supplemental or other marginal reserve requirement) with respect to eurocurrency funding (currently referred to as “Eurocurrency liabilities” in Regulation
D)), special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender; or 

2.7.3.2 subject any Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement or any SOFR Loan made by it, or change the basis
of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof (except for (A) Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 2.5.4 and (B) the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender); or

 2.7.3.3 impose on any Lender any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or SOFR Loans made by such
Lender; 
 and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any SOFR
Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan other than any cost related to Taxes or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) by an amount deemed by
such Lender to be material, then Borrower will pay to such Lender within 30 days after its demand, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. A certificate setting forth
in reasonable detail the amount of such increased costs or reduced amounts and the basis for determination of such amount, submitted by such Lender to Borrower, shall, in the absence of demonstrable error, be conclusive and binding on Borrower for
purposes of this Agreement. 
 2.7.4 Capital Requirements. If any Lender determines that any Change of Law regarding capital or
liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or
the Loans made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change of Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s
holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time Borrower shall pay to such Lender, within 30 days after its demand such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for
any such reduction suffered. A certificate of such Lender, setting forth in reasonable detail the computation of any such amount, submitted by such Lender to Borrower, shall, in the absence of demonstrable error, be conclusive and binding on
Borrower for purposes of this Agreement. 
 2.7.5 Delay in Request. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand
compensation pursuant to this Section 2.7 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.7 for
any costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies Borrower of the event giving rise to such costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided
further that, if the event giving rise to such costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. 

  
 11 

 2.8 Funding Losses. If Borrower shall (a) repay or prepay any SOFR Loans on any
day other than the last day of an Interest Period for such Loans (including as a result of an assignment effected pursuant to Section 2.9.2), (b) fail to satisfy the applicable conditions for the Borrowing on the date of this Agreement,
(c) fail to convert any Base Rate Loans into SOFR Loans in accordance with a Notice of Conversion of Loan Type delivered to Administrative Agent (whether as a result of the failure to satisfy any applicable conditions or otherwise) after such
notice has become irrevocable, (d) fail to continue a SOFR Loan in accordance with a Confirmation of Interest Period Selection after such notice of confirmation has become irrevocable or (e) fail to make any prepayment in accordance with
any notice of prepayment delivered to Administrative Agent, Borrower shall, within 30 days after demand by any Lender (other than in the case of the costs covered by the parenthetical clause under clause (a) above, which shall be paid in
accordance with Section 2.9.2), reimburse such Lender for all reasonable costs and losses incurred by such Lender (“Liquidation Costs”) due to such payment, prepayment or failure. Borrower understands that such costs and losses
may include losses incurred by a Lender as a result of funding and other contracts entered into by such Lender to fund SOFR Loans (other than non-receipt of the Applicable Rate in respect of the interest rate
on SOFR Loans). Each Lender demanding payment under this Section 2.8 shall deliver to Borrower a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the amount of costs and losses for which demand is made. Such a certificate so delivered to Borrower
shall, in the absence of demonstrable error, be conclusive and binding as to the amount of such loss for purposes of this Agreement. 
 2.9
Alternate Office, Minimization of Costs. 
 2.9.1 Minimization of Costs. To the extent reasonably possible, each Lender shall
designate an alternative Lending Office with respect to its SOFR Loans and otherwise take any reasonable actions to reduce any liability of Borrower to any Lender under Sections 2.5.4, 2.7.3, 2.7.4 or 2.8, or to avoid the unavailability of any
Type of Loans under Section 2.7.1.1 so long as (in the case of the designation of an alternative Lending Office) such Lender, in its sole discretion, does not determine that such designation is disadvantageous to such Lender. 

2.9.2 Replacement Rights. If and with respect to each occasion that a Lender (i) makes a demand for compensation pursuant to
Section 2.5.4, 2.7.3 or 2.7.4, (ii) is unable for a period of three consecutive months to fund SOFR Loans pursuant to Section 2.7.1.1 or such Lender wrongfully fails to fund a Loan, (iii) becomes a Defaulting Lender or (iv) has
failed to consent to any proposed waiver or amendment with respect to this Agreement that requires the consent of all the Lenders or all the Lenders directly affected and with respect to which the Required Lenders shall have granted their consent,
Borrower may, at its sole expense, upon at least five Banking Days’ prior irrevocable written notice to the affected Lender and Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject
to the restrictions contained in Section 7.13.1), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an eligible assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such
assignment); provided that Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of Administrative Agent with respect to such assignee to the extent consent would be required under the terms of Section 7.13.1 in connection with an
assignment to such assignee (which consent, in each case, shall not be unreasonably withheld). Such replacement Lender shall upon the effective date of replacement purchase the Obligations owed to such replaced Lender for the aggregate amount
thereof and shall thereupon and for all purposes become a “Lender” hereunder. Such notice from Borrower shall specify an effective date for the replacement of such Lender’s Loans and Commitments, which date shall not be later than the
14th day after the day such notice is given. On the effective date of any replacement of a Lender’s Loans and Commitments and Obligations pursuant to this Section 2.9.2, Borrower
shall pay to Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender (a) any fees due to such Lender to the date of such replacement; (b) the principal of and accrued interest on the principal amount of outstanding Loans held by such Lender to
the date of such replacement (such amount to be represented by the purchase of the Obligations of such replaced Lender by the replacing Lender and not as a prepayment 

  
 12 

 
of such Loans or other amounts), and (c) the amount or amounts due to such Lender pursuant to each of Sections 2.5.4, 2.7.3 or 2.7.4, as applicable, and any other amount then payable
hereunder to such Lender. In addition, if the replacement Lender was not previously a “Lender” hereunder, Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent an administrative fee of $3,500. Borrower will remain liable to such replaced Lender for
any Liquidation Costs that such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of the purchase of such Lender’s Loans (unless such Lender has defaulted on its obligation to fund a Loan hereunder). Upon the effective date of the purchase of any
Lender’s Loans and termination of such Lender’s Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.9.2, such Lender shall cease to be a Lender hereunder. No such replacement of such Lender’s Commitments and the purchase of such Lender’s
Loans pursuant to this Section 2.9.2 shall affect (i) any liability or obligation of Borrower or any other Lender to such replaced Lender, or any liability or obligation of such replaced Lender to Borrower or any other Lender, which
accrued on or prior to the date of such replacement or (ii) such replaced Lender’s rights hereunder in respect of any such liability or obligation. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior
thereto, as a result of a waiver or otherwise, the circumstances entitling Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. 

2.9.3 Alternate Office. Any Lender may designate a Lending Office other than that set forth in its Administrative Questionnaire and may
assign all of its interests under the Credit Facility Documents to such Lending Office, provided that such designation and assignment do not at the time of such designation and assignment increase the reasonably foreseeable liability of
Borrower under Sections 2.5.4, 2.7.3 or 2.7.4, or make an interest rate option unavailable pursuant to Section 2.7.2. 
 2.10
[Reserved] 
 2.11 Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes
a Defaulting Lender, then for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender the Commitment and Loans of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including
any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 7.9), except that (i) the Commitment(s) of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended, or the maturity of any of its Loans may not be extended, the
rate of interest on any of its Loans may not be reduced and the principal amount of any of its Loans may not be forgiven, in each case without the consent of such Defaulting Lender and (ii) any amendment, waiver or consent requiring the consent

claims, damages, losses, liabilities and obligations, of any kind 

  
 21 

 
or nature whatsoever, that may be imposed upon, incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, the other
Credit Facility Documents, the use by Borrower of the proceeds hereof, or any related claim or investigation, litigation or proceeding, or the preparation of any defense with respect thereto, and will reimburse each Indemnitee for all reasonable
expenses (including all reasonable costs and expenses of a single legal counsel, together with a single legal counsel in each applicable jurisdiction, and all reasonable costs and expenses of multiple legal counsels to the extent necessary in the
event that (i) the circumstances giving rise to such indemnification create an ethical conflict for such single counsel or (ii) the Indemnitees have inconsistent or conflicting defenses) incurred in connection with the investigation of,
preparation for or defense of any pending or threatened claim, investigation, litigation or proceeding, whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by Borrower, or an Indemnitee is otherwise a party thereto (but not in
respect of any claim or action brought by Borrower against any Indemnitee to enforce its rights hereunder or under any other Credit Facility Document), and whether or not the transactions contemplated by the Credit Facility Documents are consummated
(collectively, “Subject Claims”). 
 5.12.2 The foregoing indemnities shall not apply with respect to an Indemnitee, to the
extent any such claim, penalty, damage, loss, liability, obligation, cost, disbursement or expense incurred by or asserted or awarded against such Indemnitee is found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a
court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, but shall continue to apply to other Indemnitees. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrower shall not be liable for
any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages suffered by an Indemnitee, including any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings of such Indemnitee, other than any such damages or losses imposed upon or asserted or awarded against
any Indemnitee by a third party. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed through electronic, telecommunications or other information transmission
systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Credit Facility Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. 

5.12.3 If for any reason the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to any Indemnitee or is insufficient to hold it harmless, then Borrower
shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnitee as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative economic interests of Borrower and its equity holders on the one hand
and such Indemnitee on the other hand in the matters contemplated by this Agreement and the other Credit Facility Documents as well as the relative fault of Borrower and such Indemnitee with respect to such loss, claim, damage or liability and any
other relevant equitable considerations. 
 5.12.4 The provisions of this Section 5.12 shall survive the satisfaction or discharge of
Borrower’s obligations hereunder, and shall be in addition to any other rights and remedies of the Lenders. 
 5.12.5 In case any
action, suit or proceeding shall be brought against any Indemnitee, such Indemnitee shall promptly notify Borrower of the commencement thereof, and Borrower shall be entitled, at its expense, acting through counsel reasonably acceptable to such
Indemnitee, to participate in, and, to the extent that Borrower desires, to assume and control the defense thereof. Such Indemnitee shall be entitled, at its expense, to participate in any action, suit or proceeding the defense of which has been
assumed by Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall not be entitled to assume and control the defense of any such action, suit or proceedings if and to the extent that, in the reasonable opinion of such Indemnitee and its counsel,
such action, suit or proceeding involves the potential imposition of criminal liability upon such Indemnitee or a conflict of interest between such Indemnitee and Borrower (unless such conflict of interest is waived in writing by the affected
Indemnitees), and in such event (other than with respect to disputes between such Indemnitee and another Indemnitee) Borrower shall pay the reasonable expenses of such Indemnitee in such defense to the extent provided in Sections 5.12.1 and
5.12.2. 

  
 22 

 5.12.6 Borrower shall promptly report to the relevant Indemnitee(s) on the status of such
action, investigation, suit or proceeding the defense of which is assumed by Borrower in accordance with Section 5.12.5, as material developments shall occur and from time to time as requested by such Indemnitee (but not more frequently than
every 60 days). Borrower shall deliver to such Indemnitee a copy of each document filed or served on any party in such action, investigation, suit or proceeding, and each material document which Borrower possesses relating to such action,
investigation, suit or proceeding. 
 5.12.7 Notwithstanding Borrower’s rights hereunder to control certain actions, investigations,
suits or proceedings, if any Indemnitee reasonably determines that failure to compromise or settle any Subject Claim made against such Indemnitee is reasonably likely to have an imminent and material adverse effect on such Indemnitee or such
Indemnitee’s interest in Borrower, such Indemnitee shall be entitled to compromise or settle such Subject Claim; provided that such Indemnitee consults with and coordinates such compromise or settlement with Borrower (although no prior
consent by Borrower to any such compromise or settlement shall be required); and provided further that with respect to any Indemnitee other than a Lender, such right may be exercised only with the consent of the Lender or Lenders which
such Indemnitee is affiliated with or engaged by. Any such compromise or settlement shall be binding upon Borrower for the purposes of this Section 5.12. Notwithstanding Borrower’s rights hereunder, Borrower shall not be entitled to settle
any Subject Claim of an Indemnitee without the prior written consent of such Indemnitee or a full release of such Indemnitee, in form and substance satisfactory to such Indemnitee. Upon payment of any Subject Claim by Borrower pursuant to this
Section 5.12 or other similar indemnity provisions contained herein to or on behalf of an Indemnitee, Borrower, without any further action, shall be subrogated to any and all claims that such Indemnitee may have relating thereto, and such
Indemnitee shall cooperate with Borrower and Borrower’s insurance carrier, and give such further assurances as are necessary or advisable to enable Borrower vigorously to pursue such claims. 

5.12.8 Any amounts payable by Borrower pursuant to this Section 5.12 shall be regularly payable within 30 days after Borrower receives an
invoice for such amounts from any applicable Indemnitee, and if not paid within such 30-day period, shall bear interest at the Default Rate. 

5.12.9 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, except as provided in Section 5.12.1 or 5.12.5, Borrower shall not, in
connection with any one legal proceeding or claim, or separate but related proceedings or claims arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, in which the interests of the Indemnitees do not materially differ, be liable to the
Indemnitees (or any of them) under any of the provisions set forth in this Section 5.12 for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (which firm shall be selected by the affected Indemnitees, or upon failure to so
select, by Administrative Agent). 
 5.13 Federal Regulations. Borrower shall not use any part of the proceeds of the Loans to
purchase or carry any “margin stock” (within the meaning of Regulation U) or to purchase, carry or trade in any securities under such circumstances as to involve Borrower in a violation of Regulation X or to involve any broker or
dealer in Regulation T. 
 5.14 Use of Proceeds. Borrower shall use, and cause its Subsidiaries to use, the proceeds of the
Loans hereunder for general corporate purposes. 
 5.15 Transactions with Affiliates. Borrower shall not, and shall not permit
any subsidiary to, enter into any transaction with any of its Affiliates (other than Borrower or any subsidiary) unless such transaction is on terms no less favorable to Borrower or such subsidiary than if the transaction had been negotiated in good
faith on an arm’s-length basis with a non-Affiliate.

shall exist under an agreement, or related agreements, under which Borrower or any Significant Subsidiary has outstanding Indebtedness (other than trade payables or non-recourse indebtedness), if the effect of

6.1.6 Judgments. A final judgment or judgments shall be entered against Borrower or any Significant Subsidiary in the amount of
$50,000,000 or more (net of amounts covered by insurance) individually or in the aggregate (other than (i) a judgment which is fully discharged within 30 days after its entry, or (ii) a judgment, the execution of which is effectively
stayed within 30 days after its entry but only for 30 days after the date on which such stay is terminated or expires) or, in the case of injunctive relief, which if left unstayed could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

  
 24

 6.1.9 Lack of Validity, Etc. Any of the Credit Facility Documents, once executed and delivered, shall, except as the
result of acts or omissions of Administrative Agent or the Lenders, fail to provide Administrative Agent and the Lenders the liens, security interest, rights, titles, interest, remedies permitted by law, powers or privileges intended to be created
thereby or cease to be in full force and effect (except as expressly contemplated by the terms thereof), or the validity thereof or the applicability thereof to the Loans or other obligations purported to be secured or guaranteed thereby or any part
thereof shall be disaffirmed by or on behalf of Borrower or any other party thereto (other than Administrative Agent or the Lenders). 
 6.2
Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, Administrative Agent and the Lenders may, at the election of the Required Lenders, without further notice of default, presentment or demand for payment, protest
or notice of nonpayment or dishonor, or other notices or demands of any kind, all such notices and demands other than notices required by this Agreement or any of the other Credit Facility Documents being waived (to the extent permitted by
Governmental Rule), exercise any or all of the following rights and remedies, in any combination or order that the Required Lenders may elect, in addition to such other rights or remedies as the Lenders may have hereunder, under the other Credit
Facility Documents or at law or in equity, as follows: 
 6.2.1 No Further Loans. Administrative Agent and the Lenders may refuse and
shall not be obligated to continue any Loans or to make any additional Loans and the Commitments may be terminated; provided that in the event of an Event of Default occurring under Section 6.1.3 with respect to Borrower, the foregoing

Agent. Without any obligation to do so but only during any time when a Loan is outstanding or any other amounts are due and owing hereunder to Administrative Agent or the Lenders, Administrative Agent may make disbursements or Loans in respect
of which any amounts are outstanding to or on behalf of Borrower to cure any Event of Default or Inchoate Default hereunder as the Required Lenders in their sole discretion may consider necessary or appropriate, whether to preserve and protect the
Lenders’ interests under this Agreement or any Credit Facility Documents or for any other reason, and all sums so expended, together with interest on such total amount at the Default Rate (but in no event shall the rate exceed the maximum
lawful rate, if applicable), shall be repaid by Borrower to Administrative Agent on demand and shall be secured by this Agreement and the other Credit Facility Documents and shall constitute an Obligation. 

  
 25 

 6.2.3 Acceleration. Declare and make all sums of accrued and outstanding principal
and accrued but unpaid interest remaining under this Agreement together with all unpaid fees, costs (including Liquidation Costs) and charges due hereunder or under any other Credit Facility Document, immediately due and payable and require Borrower

outstanding Loans; provided that in the event of an Event of Default occurring under Section 6.1.3 with respect to Borrower, all such amounts shall become immediately due and payable without further act of Administrative Agent or the
Lenders. 
 ARTICLE VII 

ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, SUBSTITUTION, AMENDMENTS, ETC. 

7.1 Appointment, Powers and Immunities. 

7.1.1 Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints Administrative Agent to act on its behalf as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other
Credit Facility Documents and authorizes Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Credit Facility Documents, together
with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and Borrower shall not have rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of such
provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Credit Facility Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other
implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.
Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in this Agreement or in any other Credit Facility Document, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, Administrative Agent: (i) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether an Inchoate Default has occurred and is continuing; (ii) shall not have any duty to take any action
or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Credit Facility Documents that 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 Credit Facility Documents); provided Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of
its counsel, may expose Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to this Agreement or any other Credit Facility Document or any Governmental Rule, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic
stay under any Bankruptcy Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Bankruptcy Law; and (iii) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit
Facility Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Administrative Agent or
any of its Affiliates in any capacity. Each of Administrative Agent and the Lenders and any of their respective Affiliates shall not be responsible to any other Lender for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement,
representation or warranty made by Borrower or its Affiliates made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Facility Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document referred to or provided for in, or
received by Administrative Agent, or any Lender under this Agreement or any Credit Facility Document, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein,
(iv) the validity, effectiveness, genuineness or enforceability of this Agreement, any other Credit Facility Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) for any failure by Borrower, its Affiliates to perform their
respective obligations hereunder or thereunder. Administrative Agent may employ agents and attorneys in fact and shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys in fact selected by it with reasonable care.

  

  
 26 

 7.1.2 Administrative Agent and its directors, officers, employees or agents shall not be
responsible for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or under any other Credit Facility Document or in connection herewith or therewith, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Administrative Agent (a) may treat the payee of any Note as the holder thereof until Administrative Agent receives written
notice of the assignment or transfer thereof signed by such payee and in form satisfactory to Administrative Agent; (b) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for Borrower), independent public accountants and other experts selected
by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (c) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender for any statements, warranties or
representations made in or in connection with any Credit Facility Document; (d) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of any Credit Facility Document
on the part of any party thereto or to inspect the property (including the books and records) of Borrower or any other Person; and (e) shall not be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability,
genuineness, sufficiency or value of any Credit Facility Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto. Except as otherwise provided under this Agreement and the other Credit Facility Documents, Administrative Agent shall
take such action with respect to the Credit Facility Documents as shall be directed by the Required Lenders. 
 7.1.3 Administrative Agent
may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Credit Facility Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by Administrative Agent.
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 Affiliates. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall
apply to any such sub-agent and to the Affiliates of Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the
syndication of the credit facility provided for in this Agreement as well as activities as Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agent
except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such
sub-agents. 
 7.2 Reliance. 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. 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. As to any other matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement, Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action or exercise any discretion, but shall be required to act or to refrain
from acting upon instructions of the Required Lenders (except that Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes Administrative Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement, any other Credit
Facility Document or any Governmental Rule). Administrative Agent shall in all cases (including when any action by Administrative Agent alone is authorized hereunder, if Administrative Agent elects in its sole discretion to obtain instructions from
the Required Lenders) be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder or under any other Credit Facility Document in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders, and such instructions of the Required Lenders and
any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all of the Lenders. 

  
 27 

 7.3 Non-Reliance. Each Lender acknowledges
that it has, independently and without reliance on Administrative Agent, any arranger of this credit facility or any amendment thereto or any other Lender and their respective 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 also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent, any arranger of this credit facility or any
amendment thereto or any other Lender and their respective Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its decisions in taking or not taking actions under this
Agreement or the other Credit Facility Documents or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. Each of Administrative Agent and any Lender shall not be required to keep informed as to the performance or observance by
Borrower or its Affiliates under this Agreement or any other document referred to or provided for herein or to make inquiry of, or to inspect the properties or books of Borrower or its Affiliates. 

7.4 Defaults. Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Inchoate Default or Event
of Default, unless such default relates to the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, or Administrative Agent has received a written notice from a Lender or Borrower,
referring to this Agreement, describing such Inchoate Default or Event of Default and indicating that such notice is a notice of default. If Administrative Agent receives such a notice of the occurrence of an Inchoate Default or Event of Default,
Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders. Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Inchoate Default or Event of Default as is provided in Article VI or if not provided for in Article VI, as Administrative
Agent shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders; provided, however, that unless and until Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action,
or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Inchoate Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interest of the Lenders. 

7.5 Indemnification. Without limiting the Obligations of Borrower hereunder, each Lender agrees to indemnify Administrative Agent,
ratably in accordance with its Proportionate Share for any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed
on, incurred by or asserted against Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the enforcement
of any of the terms hereof or thereof or of any such other documents; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent they arise from Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful
misconduct. Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in refusing to take or to continue to take any action hereunder or under any other Credit Facility Document unless it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any
and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse Administrative Agent promptly upon demand for its Proportionate
Share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, administration or
enforcement of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, the Credit Facility Documents, to the extent that Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Administrative
Agent shall not be entitled to indemnification or reimbursement of its expenses under this Section 7.5 if it would not be entitled to indemnification or reimbursement under Sections 5.12 and 8.4, respectively. 

7.6 Successor Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent may resign hereunder at any time by giving written notice thereof to
the Lenders and Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders, shall have the right to appoint the successor Administrative Agent hereunder with the consent of Borrower, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed;
provided that Borrower’s consent shall not be required if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at such time hereunder. 

  
 28 

 
If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s
giving of notice of resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders), the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of the Lenders with the consent of Borrower (such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld or delayed) appoint the successor Administrative Agent hereunder which shall be a Lender, if any Lender shall be willing to serve, and otherwise shall be a commercial bank having a combined capital and surplus of at least
$500,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and
duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations as Administrative Agent only under the Credit Facility Documents. Except for any indemnity payments owed to the
retiring Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through Administrative Agent shall instead by made by or to each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a
successor Administrative Agent. The fees payable by Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between Borrower and such successor. After any retiring Administrative
Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article VII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under the Credit Facility
Documents. 
 7.7 Authorization. Administrative Agent is hereby authorized by the Lenders to execute, deliver and perform each of the
Credit Facility Documents to which Administrative Agent is or is intended to be a party and each Lender agrees to be bound by all of the agreements of Administrative Agent contained in the Credit Facility Documents. Administrative Agent is further
authorized by the Lenders to enter into agreements supplemental hereto for the purpose of curing any formal defect, inconsistency, omission or ambiguity in this Agreement or any Credit Facility Document to which it is a party. 

7.8 Administrative Agent’s Other Roles; Other Agents. With respect to its Commitments, the Loans made
by it and any Notes issued to it, Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not Administrative Agent. The term “Lender” or “Lenders”
shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include Administrative Agent in its individual capacity. Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under
indentures of, own securities of, act as the financial adviser or in any other advisory capacity for, and generally engage in any kind of business with Borrower or any other Person, without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Arrangers named on the cover page of this Agreement shall not have any powers, duties or liabilities under this Agreement or any other Credit Facility Document, except in their capacity, if any,
as Administrative Agent or Lenders. 
 7.9 Amendments; Waivers. Subject to the provisions of this Section 7.9, unless otherwise
specified in this Agreement or another Credit Facility Document, the Required Lenders (or Administrative Agent with the consent in writing of the Required Lenders) and Borrower may enter into agreements supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding,
modifying or waiving any provisions to the Credit Facility Documents or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or Borrower hereunder or waiving any Inchoate Default or Event of Default; provided, however, that no such
supplemental agreement shall: 
 (a) Modify Section 2.1.4, 2.5.1, 2.5.2, 2.5.3, 2.5.5 or 2.6.1 without the written consent of each
Lender affected thereby; or 
 (b) Reduce the percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders, without the written consent of
each Lender; or 

  
 29 

 (c) Permit Borrower to assign its rights or obligations under this Agreement, without the
written consent of each Lender; or 
 (d) Amend this Section 7.9 or amend any defined term set forth herein, in any Credit Facility
Document or in Exhibit A, to the extent such amendment would have the effect of violating the effect of the provisions of this Section 7.9, without the written consent of each Lender; or 

(e) Release any collateral from a lien securing the Obligations of Borrower hereunder or release any funds from any account otherwise than in
accordance with the terms hereof, without the written consent of each Lender; or 
 (f) Extend the maturity of any Loans (including any
extension of any Maturity Date) or any Notes or reduce the principal amount thereof, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby; or 

(g) Reduce the rate or change the time of payment of interest due on any Loan or any Note, without the written consent of each Lender
affected thereby; or 
 (h) Reduce the amount or change the time of payment of any fee or other amount due or payable without the written
consent of each Lender affected thereby; or 
 (i) Increase the amount of the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such
Lender. 
 provided that the Administrative Agent (and, if applicable, the Borrower) may, without the consent of any Lender, enter into amendments or
modifications to this Agreement or any of the other Credit Facility Documents or to enter into additional Credit Facility Documents in order to implement any Benchmark Replacement or any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes or otherwise
effectuate the terms of Section 2.7.1.2 in accordance with the terms of Section 2.7.1.2. 
 provided further that no such agreement shall
amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of Administrative Agent hereunder without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent. 

7.10 Withholding Tax. 

7.10.1 If the forms or other documentation required by Section 2.5.7 are not delivered to Administrative Agent, then Administrative Agent
may withhold from any interest payment to any Lender not providing such forms or other documentation, an amount equivalent to the applicable withholding tax. 

7.10.2 If the Internal Revenue Service or any authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that Administrative Agent
did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender (because the appropriate form was not delivered, was not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify Administrative Agent of a change in circumstances
which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective, or for any other reason) such Lender shall indemnify Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by Administrative Agent as tax or
otherwise, including penalties and interest, together with all expenses incurred, including legal expenses, allocated staff costs, and any out of pocket expenses. Borrower shall not be responsible for any amounts paid or required to be paid by a
Lender under this Section 7.10.2. 

  
 30 

 7.10.3 If any Lender sells, assigns, grants participations in, or otherwise transfers its
rights under this Agreement, the purchaser, assignee, transferee or participant shall comply with and be bound by the terms of Sections 2.5.7, 7.10.1 and 7.10.2 as though it were such Lender. 

7.11 General Provisions as to Payments. Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to each Lender its pro rata share of each
payment of principal and interest payable to the Lenders on the Loans and of fees hereunder received by Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders and of any other amounts owing under the Loans. The payments made for the account of each
Lender shall be made, and distributed to it, for the account of (a) its domestic lending office in the case of payments of principal of, and interest on, its Base Rate Loans, (b) its domestic or foreign lending office, as each Lender may
designate in writing to Administrative Agent, in the case of payments of principal of, and interest on, its SOFR Loans and (c) its domestic lending office, or such other lending office as it may designate for the purpose from time to time, in
the case of payments of fees and other amounts payable hereunder. Each Lender shall have the right to alter its designated domestic lending office upon notice to Administrative Agent and Borrower. 

7.12 Participations. 

7.12.1 Nothing herein provided shall prevent any Lender from selling a participation in its Commitments (and/or Loans made thereunder) to one
or more financial institutions or other entities (a “Participant”); provided that (a) no such sale of a participation shall alter such Lender’s or Borrower’s obligations hereunder and (b) any agreement
pursuant to which any Lender may grant a participation in its rights with respect to its Commitments (and/or Loans) shall provide that, with respect to such Commitments (and/or Loans), subject to the following proviso, such Lender shall retain the
sole right and responsibility to exercise the rights of such Lender, and enforce the obligations of Borrower relating to such Commitments (and/or Loans), including the right to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this
Agreement or any other Credit Facility Document and the right to take action to have the Notes declared due and payable pursuant to Article VI; provided, however, that such agreement may provide that such Lender will not, without the
consent of the relevant Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 7.9 that affects such Participant. Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections
2.5.4, 2.7.3 and 2.7.4 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 7.13; provided that such Participant (1) shall be subject to the requirements and limitations therein,
including the requirements under Section 2.5.7 (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.5.7 shall be delivered to the participating Lender); (2) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.6.2
and 2.9 as if it were an assignee under Section 7.13; and (3) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.5.4, 2.7.3 and 2.7.4 with respect to any participation than its participating Lender would have been
entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change of Law that occurs after such Participant acquired the applicable participation. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also
shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 8.2 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.6.2 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for
this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrower (and such agency being solely for tax purposes), maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and
stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the
Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitment, Loan, promissory note or other obligations under this Agreement or any other Credit
Facility Document) except if additional payments under Sections 2.5.4, 2.7.3 and 2.7.4 are requested with respect to such Participant and except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, promissory
note or other obligation is at all times maintained in registered form within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code and any related regulations (and any successor 

  
 31 

 
provisions). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the
owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a
Participant Register. 
 7.12.2 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”)
may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (a “SPC”), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to Administrative Agent and Borrower, the option to provide to Borrower all or any part of any Loan
that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to Borrower pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (a) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to make any Loan, and (b) if an SPC elects not to
exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the
Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which
shall remain with the Granting Lender). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full
of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings
under the laws of the United States or any state thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 7.12, any SPC may (x) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, Borrower and
Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to the Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented to by Borrower and Administrative Agent) providing
liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPC to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (y) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans
to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC. This Section 7.12 may not be amended without the written consent of all SPCs having outstanding Loans or
Commitments hereunder. 
 7.13 Transfer of Commitments. 

7.13.1 Assignments. Notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary (but subject to Section 7.12.2), any Lender may assign to
one or more Persons all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent, such consent, in each case, not to be
unreasonably withheld or delayed, of: 
 (a) Borrower, provided that no consent of Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a
Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee; provided, further, that Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to an assignment unless it shall have objected
thereto by written notice to Administrative Agent within five Banking Days after having received notice thereof; and 
 (b) Administrative
Agent; provided that no consent of Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment to a Lender. 

  
 32 

 Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions: 

(i) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount
of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans, the amount of the Commitment or 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 Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of Borrower and Administrative Agent otherwise consent; provided that no such consent of Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; 

(ii) 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; 
 (iii) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to Administrative
Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; and 
 (iv) the assignee, if it
shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. 
 Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to
this Section 7.13.1, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights
and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an
Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.5.4, 2.7.3, 2.8,
5.12 and 8.4). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 7.13.1 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 Section 7.12. 
 Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning
Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in this Section 7.13.1 and any written consent to such
assignment required hereby, Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register; provided that if either the assigning Lender or the assignee shall have failed to make
any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.5.6 or 7.5, Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment
shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest thereon. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this Section 7.13.1. 

7.13.2 Register. Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent
of Borrower (and such agency being solely for tax purposes), shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the
Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and Borrower, Administrative Agent and 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
Borrower and any Lender (with respect to its own interests only), at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. This Section 7.13 shall be construed so that the Commitments, Loans, promissory notes or other
obligations are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code and any related regulations (and any successor provisions). 

  
 33 

 7.13.3 No Assignments to Certain Persons. Anything in this Section 7.13 to the
contrary notwithstanding, no Lender may assign or participate any interest in any Loan held by it hereunder to (i) Borrower or any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries without the prior consent of each Lender, (ii) any Defaulting Lender or
any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (ii) or (iii) a natural person. 

7.13.4 Assignability as to Collateral. Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement or any other Credit Facility
Document to the contrary, 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 such pledge or assignment to a Federal Reserve
Bank or any central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such
Lender as a party hereto. 
 7.14 Acknowledgments of Lenders. (i) Each Lender hereby agrees that (x) if Administrative
Agent notifies such Lender that Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds received by such Lender from Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates (whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal,
interest, fees or otherwise; individually and collectively, a “Payment”) were erroneously transmitted to such Lender (whether or not known to such Lender), and demands the return of such Payment (or a portion thereof), such Lender
shall promptly, but in no event later than one Banking Day thereafter, return to Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds, together with interest thereon in respect
of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to Administrative Agent at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by
Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect, and (y) to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender shall not assert, and hereby waives, as to Administrative
Agent, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by Administrative Agent for the return of any Payments received, including without
limitation any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine. A notice of Administrative Agent to any Lender under this Section 7.14 shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. 

(ii) Each Lender hereby further agrees that if it receives a Payment from Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates
(x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment sent by Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such Payment (a “Payment Notice”) or
(y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a Payment Notice, it shall be on notice, in each such case, that an error has been made with respect to such Payment. Each Lender agrees that, in each such case, or if it otherwise becomes aware
a Payment (or portion thereof) may have been sent in error, such Lender shall promptly notify Administrative Agent of such occurrence and, upon demand from Administrative Agent, it shall promptly, but in no event later than one Banking Day
thereafter, return to Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or
portion thereof) was received by such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to Administrative Agent at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on
interbank compensation from time to time in effect. 

  
 34 

 (iii) The Borrower hereby agrees that (x) in the event an erroneous
Payment (or portion thereof) are not recovered from any Lender that has received such Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights of such Lender with respect to such amount and
(y) an erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Borrower. 

(iv) Each party’s obligations under this Section 7.14 shall survive the resignation or replacement of Administrative
Agent or any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations under any Credit Facility Document.

notice may be sent by electronic transmission and (ii) that the foregoing notice may be sent to such e-mail address.

 8.2 Additional Security;

treated as collateral security for the payment of the Loans and any Notes and all other obligations of Borrower to the Lenders under this Agreement and the other Credit Facility Documents, and Borrower hereby pledges to Administrative Agent for the
benefit of the Lenders and grants Administrative Agent a security interest in and to all such deposits, sums, securities or other property. Regardless of the adequacy of any other collateral, Administrative Agent may execute or realize on the

single Event of Default, Inchoate Default or other breach or default be deemed a waiver of any other Event of Default, Inchoate Default or other breach or default theretofore or thereafter occurring. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any
kind or character on the part of Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders of any Event of Default, Inchoate Default or other breach or default under this Agreement or any other Credit Facility Document, or any waiver on the part of Administrative
Agent and/or the Lenders of any provision or condition of this Agreement or any other Credit Facility Document, must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent in such writing specifically set forth. All remedies, either under this

Administrative Agent or the Lenders other than as set forth above. 
 8.5 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and any agreement,
document or instrument attached hereto or referred to herein integrate all the terms and conditions mentioned herein or incidental hereto and supersede all oral negotiations and prior writings in respect to the subject matter hereof. In the event of
any conflict between the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement and any such agreement, document or instrument, the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall prevail. 

8.6 Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT, AND ANY INSTRUMENT OR AGREEMENT REQUIRED HEREUNDER (TO THE EXTENT NOT OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PROVIDED
FOR THEREIN), SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED UNDER, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS (OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 AND
SECTION 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW). 
 8.7 Severability. In case
any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement should be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

 8.8 Headings. Paragraph headings have been inserted in this Agreement as a matter of convenience for reference only; such
paragraph headings are not a part of this Agreement and shall not be used in the interpretation of any provision of this Agreement. 
 8.9
Accounting Terms. 
 (a) All accounting terms not specifically defined herein shall be construed in accordance with GAAP and
practices consistent with those applied in the preparation of the financial statements submitted by Borrower to Administrative Agent, and all financial data submitted pursuant to this Agreement shall be prepared in accordance with such principles
and practices, as in effect from time to time; provided that, if Borrower notifies Administrative Agent that Borrower requests an amendment to any provision hereof to eliminate the effect of any change occurring after the date hereof in GAAP
or in the application thereof on the operation of such provision (or if Administrative Agent notifies Borrower that the Required Lenders request an amendment to any provision hereof for such purpose), regardless of whether any such notice is given
before or after such change in GAAP or in the application thereof, then such provision shall be interpreted on the basis of GAAP as in effect and applied immediately before such change shall have become effective until such notice shall have been
withdrawn or such provision amended in accordance herewith. Indebtedness of Borrower shall be deemed to be carried at one hundred percent of the outstanding principal amount thereof, and the effects of FASB ASC 805 and FASB ASC 825 shall be
disregarded with respect to the reporting of the principal amount of Indebtedness. 
 (b) If at any time any change in GAAP would affect
the computation of any financial ratio or requirement set forth in any Credit Facility 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 

  
 38 

 
reconciliation between calculations of such ratio or requirement made before and after giving effect to such change in GAAP; provided, further that (A) all obligations of any Person that are
or would have been treated as operating leases for purposes of GAAP prior to the effectiveness of FASB ASC 842 shall continue to be accounted for as operating leases for purposes of all financial definitions and calculations for purpose of this
Agreement (whether or not such operating lease obligations were in effect on such date) notwithstanding the fact that such obligations are required in accordance with FASB ASC 842 (on a prospective or retroactive basis or otherwise) to be treated as
Capital Lease Obligations in the financial statements and (B) all financial statements delivered to the Administrative Agent hereunder shall contain a schedule showing the modifications necessary to reconcile the adjustments made pursuant to
clause (A) above with such financial statements. 
 8.10 No Partnership, Etc. The Lenders and Borrower intend that the
relationship between them shall be solely that of creditor and debtor. Nothing contained in this Agreement, the Notes or in any of the other Credit Facility Documents shall be deemed or construed to create a partnership, tenancy-in-common, joint tenancy, joint venture or co-ownership by or between the Lenders and Borrower or any other Person. 

8.11 Limitation on Liability. No claim shall be made by Borrower or any of its Affiliates against the Lenders or any of their
Affiliates, directors, employees, attorneys or agents for any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings, special or punitive damages or any indirect or consequential loss whatsoever in respect of any breach or wrongful conduct (whether or not
the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or duty imposed by law), in connection with, arising out of or in any way related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Credit Facility Documents or any act or omission or event
occurring in connection therewith; and Borrower hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any such claim for any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor. 

8.12 Waiver of Jury Trial. THE LENDERS, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND BORROWER HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ANY
RIGHTS THEY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON, OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT FACILITY DOCUMENT, OR ANY COURSE OR CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS
(WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN), OR ACTIONS OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE LENDERS OR BORROWER. THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE LENDERS AND ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT. 

8.13 Consent to Jurisdiction. The Lenders, Administrative Agent and Borrower agree that any legal action or proceeding by or against
Borrower or with respect to or arising out of this Agreement, the Notes, or any other Credit Facility Document may be brought in or removed to the courts of the State of New York, in and for the County of New York, or of the United States of America
for the Southern District of New York, or any appellate court thereof, as Administrative Agent may elect. By execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Lenders, Administrative Agent and Borrower accept, for themselves and in respect of their
property, generally and unconditionally, the jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts. The Lenders, Administrative Agent and Borrower irrevocably consent to the service of process out of any of the aforementioned courts in any manner permitted by law.
Nothing herein shall affect the right of Administrative Agent to bring legal action or proceedings in any other competent jurisdiction. The Lenders, Administrative Agent and Borrower further agree that the aforesaid courts of the State of New York
and of the United States of America shall have exclusive jurisdiction with respect to any claim or counterclaim of Borrower based upon the assertion that the rate of interest charged by the Lenders on or under this Agreement, the Loans and/or the
other Credit Facility Documents is usurious. The Lenders, Administrative Agent and Borrower hereby waive any right to stay or dismiss any action or proceeding under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Facility Document brought
before the foregoing courts on the basis of forum non-conveniens. 

  
 39

 8.15 Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of their rights under this Agreement, and the Lenders may not assign or otherwise transfer any of their rights under this Agreement except
as provided in Article VII. 
 8.16 Counterparts; Electronic Execution. 

(a) This Agreement may be executed in one or more duplicate counterparts and when signed by all of the parties listed below shall constitute
a single binding agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by fax or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. 

(b) The words “execute,” “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery” and words of like
import in or related to this Agreement, any other Credit Facility Document or any document, amendment, approval, consent, waiver, modification, information, notice, certificate, report, statement, disclosure, or authorization to be signed or
delivered in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Facility Document or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be deemed to include Electronic Signatures or execution in the form of an Electronic Record, and contract formations on
electronic platforms approved by the Administrative Agent, deliveries 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. Each party hereto agrees that any Electronic Signature or execution in the form of an Electronic Record shall be valid and binding on itself and each of the other
parties hereto to the same extent as a manual, original signature. For the avoidance of doubt, the authorization under this paragraph may include, without limitation, use or acceptance by the parties of a manually signed paper which has been
converted into electronic form (such as scanned into PDF format), or an electronically signed paper converted into another format, for transmission, delivery and/or retention. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the
Administrative Agent is under no obligation to accept an Electronic Signature in any form or in any format unless expressly agreed to by the Administrative Agent pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that without limiting the foregoing,
(i) to the extent the Administrative Agent has agreed to accept such Electronic Signature from any party hereto, the Administrative Agent and the other parties hereto shall be entitled to rely on any such Electronic Signature purportedly given
by or on behalf of the executing party without further verification and (ii) upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by an original manually executed counterpart thereof.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby (A) agrees that, for all purposes, including without limitation, in connection with any workout, restructuring, enforcement of remedies, bankruptcy proceedings or
litigation among the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower, electronic images of this Agreement or any other Credit Facility Document (in each case, including with respect to any signature pages thereto) shall have the same legal
effect, validity and enforceability as any paper original, and (B) waives any argument, defense or right to contest the validity or enforceability of the Credit Facility Documents based solely on the lack of paper original copies of any Credit
Facility Documents, including with respect to any signature pages thereto.

behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Borrower, which information includes the name and address of Borrower and
other information that will allow such Lender or Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act. Borrower shall, and shall cause each of its Significant Subsidiaries to, provide, to the extent
commercially reasonable, such information and take such actions as are reasonably requested by Administrative Agent or any Lender in order to assist Administrative Agent and the Lenders in maintaining compliance with the Patriot Act. 

8.18 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of Borrower is made to Administrative Agent or any Lender, or
Administrative Agent or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant
to any settlement entered into by Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of
such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender severally agrees
to pay to Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a
rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate from time to time in effect. 
 8.19 No Advisory or Fiduciary
Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Credit Facility Document), Borrower acknowledges and agrees,
and acknowledge its Affiliates’ understanding, that (a) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by Administrative Agent and the Lenders and the Arrangers are
arm’s-length commercial transactions between Borrower and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Administrative Agent and the Lenders and the Arrangers on the other hand, (b) Borrower has consulted
their own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent that they have deemed appropriate, (c) Borrower is capable of evaluating, and understand and accept, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby
and by the other Credit Facility Documents, (d) each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and the Arrangers is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is
not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for Borrower or any of its Affiliates, or any other Person, (e) none of Administrative Agent or the Lenders and the Arrangers has any obligation to Borrower or any of its Affiliates
with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit Facility Documents and (f) the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Arrangers and their respective Affiliates
may be engaged, for their own accounts or the accounts of customers, in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of Borrower and its Affiliates, and none of Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Arrangers has
any obligation to disclose any of such interests to Borrower or its Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Borrower hereby waives and releases any claims that they may have against Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Arrangers
with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.

 8.20 Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of
Affected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Credit Facility Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any
Affected Financial Institution arising under any Credit Facility Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable 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 the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an
Affected 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 Affected Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, 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 Credit Facility Document; or (iii) the variation of the terms of such
liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority. 
 8.21
Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Credit Facility Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Hedge Transactions or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support,
“QFC Credit Support” and, each such QFC, a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the FDIC under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank
Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable
notwithstanding that the Credit Facility Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States): 

(a) In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under
a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such
Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such
interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special
Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Credit Facility Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than
such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Credit Facility Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the
foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support. 

(b) As used in this Section 8.21, the following terms have the following meanings: 

“BHC Act Affiliate” of a party means an “affiliate” (as such term is defined under, and interpreted in accordance with, 12
U.S.C. 1841(k)) of such party. 

  
 42 

 “Covered Entity” means any of the following: 

(i) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b); 

(ii) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or 

(iii) a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b). 

“Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§
252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable. 
 “QFC” has the meaning assigned to the term “qualified financial contract” in,
and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 5390(c)(8)(D). 
 8.22 Divisions. For all purposes under the Credit Facility
Documents, in connection with any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right,
obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been
organized on the first date of its existence by the holders of its Equity Interests at such time. 
 8.23 Certain ERISA Matters. 

8.23.1 Each Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from
the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent, each Arranger and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for
the benefit of the Borrower, that at least one of the following is and will be true: 
 (a) such Lender is not using “plan assets”
(within the meaning of Section 3(42) of ERISA or otherwise) of one or more Benefit Plans with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, or the Commitments or this Agreement;

 (b) the transaction exemption set forth in one or more PTEs, such as PTE 84-14 (a class
exemption for certain transactions determined by independent qualified professional asset managers), PTE 95-60 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company general accounts), PTE 90-1 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company pooled separate accounts), PTE 91-38 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving bank
collective investment funds) or PTE 96-23 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by in-house asset managers), is applicable with respect to such
Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement; 

(c) (A) such Lender is an investment fund managed by a “Qualified Professional Asset Manager” (within the meaning of Part VI
of PTE 84-14), (B) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the investment decision on behalf of such Lender to enter into, participate in, administer and perform the Loans, the Commitments and this
Agreement, (C) the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement satisfies the requirements of sub-sections (b) through (g) of
Part I of PTE 84-14 and (D) to the best knowledge of such Lender, the requirements of subsection (a) of Part I of PTE 84-14 are satisfied with respect to such
Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement; or 

  
 43 

 (d) such other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between
the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, and such Lender. 
 8.23.2 In addition, unless either
(1) sub-clause (a) in the immediately preceding clause 8.23.1 is true with respect to a Lender or (2) a Lender has provided another representation, warranty and covenant in accordance with sub-clause (d) in the immediately preceding clause 8.23.1, such Lender further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the
date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent, each Arranger and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the
benefit of the Borrower, that none of the Administrative Agent, any Arranger and their respective Affiliates is a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender involved in such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of
and performance of the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Credit Facility Document or any documents related hereto
or thereto). 
 8.24 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Credit Facility Document,
the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Credit Facility Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If
Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In
determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal
as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the
contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

“Benchmark” means, initially, the Term SOFR Reference Rate; provided that if a Benchmark Transition Event has occurred
with respect to the Term SOFR Reference Rate or the then current Benchmark, as applicable, then “Benchmark” means the applicable Benchmark Replacement to the extent that such Benchmark Replacement has replaced such prior benchmark rate
pursuant to clause (a) of Section 2.7.1.2. 
 “Benchmark Replacement” means, with respect to any Benchmark
Transition Event, the first alternative set forth in the order below that can be determined by the Administrative Agent for the applicable Benchmark Replacement Date: 

(1) the sum of: (a) Daily Simple SOFR and (b) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment; or 

(2) the sum of: (i) the alternate benchmark rate that has been selected by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower giving due
consideration to (A) any selection or recommendation of a replacement benchmark rate or the mechanism for determining such a rate by the Relevant Governmental Body or (B) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a
benchmark rate as a replacement to the then-current Benchmark for Dollar-denominated syndicated credit facilities and (ii) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment. 

If the Benchmark Replacement as determined pursuant to clause (1) or (2) above would be less than the Floor, the Benchmark Replacement will be deemed to
be the Floor for the purposes of this Agreement and the other Credit Facility Documents. 
 “Benchmark Replacement
Adjustment” means, with respect to any replacement of the then-current Benchmark with an Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement the spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, (which may be a positive or
negative value or zero) that has been selected by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower giving due consideration to (i) any selection or recommendation of a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment,
for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement by the Relevant Governmental Body or (ii) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a spread adjustment, or method for
calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for dollar-denominated syndicated credit facilities at such time. 

“Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes” means, with respect to any Benchmark Replacement, any technical, administrative or
operational changes (including changes to the definition of “Alternate Base Rate,” the definition of “Banking Day,” the definition of “Interest Period,” timing and frequency of determining rates and making payments of
interest, timing of borrowing requests or prepayment, conversion or continuation notices, length of lookback periods, the applicability of breakage provisions, and other technical, administrative or operational matters) that the Administrative Agent
decides 

  
 Exhibit A-3 

 
may be appropriate to reflect the adoption and implementation of such Benchmark Replacement and to permit the administration thereof by the Administrative Agent in a manner substantially
consistent with market practice (or, if the Administrative Agent decides that adoption of any portion of such market practice is not administratively feasible or if the Administrative Agent determines that no market practice for the administration
of such Benchmark Replacement exists, in such other manner of administration as the Administrative Agent decides is reasonably necessary in connection with the administration of this Agreement and the other Credit Facility Documents). 

“Benchmark Replacement Date” means the earliest to occur of the following events with respect to the then-current Benchmark:

 (1) in the case of clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition Event,” the later of (a) the date of
the public statement or publication of information referenced therein and (b) the date on which the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) permanently or indefinitely ceases to provide all
Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof); or 
 (2) in the case of clause (3) of the definition of
“Benchmark Transition Event,” the first date on which such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) has been determined and announced by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or
such component thereof) to be non-representative; provided that such non-representativeness will be determined by reference to the most recent statement or
publication referenced in such clause (3) and even if any Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) continues to be provided on such date. 

For the avoidance of doubt, the “Benchmark Replacement Date” will be deemed to have occurred in the case of clause (1) or (2) with respect to
any Benchmark upon the occurrence of the applicable event or events set forth therein with respect to all then-current Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof). 

“Benchmark Transition Event” means the occurrence of one or more of the following events with respect to the then-current
Benchmark: 
 (1) a public statement or publication of information by or on behalf of the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published
component used in the calculation thereof) announcing that such administrator has ceased or will cease to provide all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof), permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such
statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide any Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or such component thereof); 

(2) a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published
component used in the calculation thereof), the Federal Reserve Board, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, an insolvency official with jurisdiction over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component), a resolution authority with
jurisdiction over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component) or a court or an entity with similar insolvency or resolution authority over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component), which states that the administrator of
such Benchmark (or such component) has ceased or will cease to provide all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor
administrator that will continue to provide any Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or such component thereof); or 

  
 Exhibit A-4 

 (3) a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the
administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) announcing that all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) are no longer or as of a specific date will not be representative. 

For the avoidance of doubt, a “Benchmark Transition Event” will be deemed to have occurred with respect to any Benchmark if a public statement or
publication of information set forth above has occurred with respect to each then-current Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof). 

“Benchmark Unavailability Period” means the period (if any) (x) beginning at the time that a Benchmark Replacement Date
has occurred if, at such time, no Benchmark Replacement has replaced the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Credit Facility Document in accordance with Section 2.7.1.2 and (y) ending at the time that a
Benchmark Replacement has replaced the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Credit Facility Document in accordance with Section 2.7.1.2.

Ownership Regulation.

the Code) the assets of any such “employee benefit plan” or “plan”.

Re: Credit Agreement for Tampa Electric Company 

Ladies and Gentlemen: 
 As Associate General
Counsel of Tampa Electric Company, a Florida corporation (the “Company”), I have acted as counsel to the Company in connection with the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of the date hereof among the Company, Wells Fargo Bank,
National Association, as Administrative Agent (the “Administrative Agent”) and the Lenders party thereto (the “Lenders”) (the “Credit Agreement”). This opinion is being delivered pursuant to Section 3.1.4 of the
Credit Agreement. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this opinion that are defined in the Credit Agreement have the meanings assigned to them in the Credit Agreement. 

In rendering the opinions set forth herein, I, or attorneys under my supervision, have examined and relied on originals or copies of the
Credit Agreement and the form of Notes to be issued by the Company pursuant to Section 2.1.5 thereunder (collectively, the “Credit Documents”) and the governing documents, and such other documents and made such examination of law as I
have deemed appropriate to give the opinions set forth below. I have relied, without independent verification, upon certificates of public officials and, as to matters of fact material to my opinions, on representations made in the Credit Agreement
and certificates and other inquiries of officers of the Company. When used in this opinion, the phrase “to my knowledge” or equivalent words with respect to a matter means that nothing has come to my attention in the course of my
representation of the Company which would lead me to question such matter but that, except as expressly stated, I have not made any special investigation with respect thereto. 

In my examination I have assumed the genuineness of all signatures (other than signatures made on behalf of the Company), including
endorsements, the legal capacity of natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to me as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to me as certified or photostatic copies and the authenticity of the
originals of such copies. Also, with your approval, I have relied as to certain legal matters on advice of other lawyers employed by the Company who are more familiar with such matters. This opinion speaks only as of its date, and I undertake no
obligation to update it for any subsequent events or legal developments. 
 I am a member of the Florida Bar, and I express no opinion as to
the laws of any other jurisdiction other than the applicable laws of the State of Florida. I do not express any opinion concerning matters governed by any securities laws of the State of Florida. 

Based upon and subject to the foregoing and subject to the limitations, qualifications, exceptions and assumptions set forth herein, I am of
the opinion that: 

  
 Exhibit H-1-1 

 1. The Company is validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the
State of Florida, and has the corporate power to execute and deliver the Credit Documents and to perform its obligations thereunder. 
 2.
The Company has duly authorized the Credit Documents to which it is a party and has executed and delivered the Credit Agreement. 
 3. All
consents, governmental approvals, licenses or authorizations (including from the Florida Public Service Commission) required to be obtained by the Company before the date hereof for its execution, delivery and performance of the Credit Documents
have been obtained and are in full force and effect. To my knowledge, there is no proceeding pending or threatened that seeks, or may reasonably be expected, to rescind, terminate, modify, suspend, or withhold any of the consents, approvals,
licenses, or authorizations referred to in this paragraph. 
 This opinion is furnished to you as Administrative Agent and to the Lenders
who may become parties to the Credit Agreement in connection with the transaction described above and may not be relied on without my prior written consent for any other purpose or by anyone else. I consent to reliance on the opinions expressed
herein, solely in connection with the Credit Documents, by any successor Administrative Agent or party that becomes a Lender under the Credit Agreement after the date of this opinion in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement as if
this opinion were addressed and delivered to such successor Administrative Agent or additional Lender on the date hereof, on the condition and understanding that (a) any such reliance must be actual and reasonable under the circumstances
existing at the time such successor Administrative Agent or additional Lender becomes an Administrative Agent or Lender, including any circumstances relating to changes in law, facts or any other developments known to or reasonably knowable by such
successor Administrative Agent or additional Lender at such time, (b) my consent to such reliance shall not constitute a reissuance of the opinions expressed herein or otherwise extend any statute of limitations period applicable hereto on the
date hereof, and (c) in no event shall any such successor Administrative Agent or additional Lender have any greater rights with respect hereto than the original addressees of this letter on the date hereof or than its assignor.

 Re: Credit Agreement for
Tampa Electric Company 
 Ladies and Gentlemen: 

We are furnishing this opinion to you pursuant to Section 3.1.4 of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit
Agreement”) dated as of the date hereof, among Tampa Electric Company (the “Company”), as borrower, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent (the “Administrative Agent”), and the Lenders
party thereto (the “Lenders”). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this opinion have the meanings as assigned to them in the Credit Agreement. 

We have acted as counsel to the Company in connection with the Credit Agreement. We have examined the Credit Agreement and the form of Notes
to be issued by the Company pursuant to Section 2.1.5 of the Credit Agreement (collectively, the “Credit Documents”). We have also examined such other documents and certificates as we consider necessary to render this opinion.
As to various questions of fact material to our opinion, we have relied, without independent verification, upon the representations made in or pursuant to the Credit Agreement and upon certificates of officers of the Company. We have also relied
upon the certificates of public officials. We have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies. We also
have assumed that each Credit Document to which the Administrative Agent, or any of the Lenders is a party constitutes its valid and binding obligation. 

The opinions rendered herein are limited solely to provisions of the following applicable laws, as currently in effect: (a) the federal
laws of the United States of America, (b) the Florida Business Corporation Act, and (c) the laws of the State of New York, provided, however, that the opinions expressed herein are based upon a review of only those statutes, rules and
regulations that, in our experience, are directly applicable to the transactions contemplated in the Credit Documents and in any event the laws described in clauses (a) through (c) above shall not include (and we express no opinion as to) the

References in this opinion to matters known to us limit the statement to the actual knowledge of the lawyers in this firm responsible for

 Exhibit H-2-1 

 Based on the foregoing and subject to the additional qualifications set forth below, we are
of opinion that: 
 1. The Company is validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Florida and has the
corporate power to enter into and perform its obligations under the Credit Documents. 
 2. The Credit Agreement has been duly authorized,
executed and delivered by the Company and constitutes its valid and binding obligations enforceable against it in accordance with their terms. The Notes have been duly authorized by the Company, and each Note, when executed and delivered for value,
will constitute its valid and binding obligation enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms. 
 3. No filing with, or
authorization, approval, consent, license, order, registration, qualification or decree of, any court or governmental authority or agency is necessary or required under any New York or federal law of the United States in connection with the due
authorization, execution, delivery and performance of the Credit Documents by the Company. 
 4. The execution and delivery of the Credit
Documents by the Company do not and the performance by it of its obligations will not (i) constitute a breach of, or default under or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of the
Company pursuant to, any written contract, indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan or credit agreement, note, lease or any other agreement or instrument that is listed as an exhibit to the Company’s
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, (ii) violate the charter or by-laws of the Company, (iii) violate any applicable New York or federal
law, statute, rule or regulation (including, without limitation, Regulations T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) or (iv) violate any judgment, order, writ or decree applicable to the Company and known to
us. 
 5. The Company is not an “investment company” or an entity “controlled” by an “investment company,” as
such terms are defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. 
 Our opinions above are subject to bankruptcy, insolvency,
voidable, preferential or fraudulent transfer, reorganization, restructuring, moratorium and other similar laws of general application affecting the rights and remedies of creditors and to general principles of equity. 

We express no opinion as to: 
  

	 	(i)	 the enforceability of any provision of the Credit Documents that increases the rate of interest upon default or
imposes a late fee to the extent either is determined to be a penalty; 

  

	 	(ii)	 the enforceability of any provision of the Credit Documents purporting to grant a party conclusive rights of
determination; 

  

	 	(iii)	 the effect of any provision of the Credit Documents that purports to grant rights of set-off or similar rights (a) to any person other than the particular Lender, (b) other than in accordance with applicable law, (c) to the extent a Lender or other person is authorized to set off
against funds on deposit in the Company’s accounts that were accepted by such Lender or other person with the intent to apply such funds to a preexisting claim rather than to hold the funds subject to withdrawals in the ordinary course,
(d) to the extent that the funds on deposit in said accounts are in any manner special accounts, which by the express terms on which they are created, are made subject to the rights of a third party, or (e) to the extent that a Lender or
any other person is entitled to exercise rights of set-off or similar rights with respect to accounts at any other institution; 

  
 Exhibit H-2-2 

	 	(iv)	 the grant of powers of attorney to the extent they are against public policy; 

 

	 	(v)	 any exculpation or indemnification to the extent they are against public policy; 

 

	 	(vi)	 the enforceability of any grant of exclusive jurisdiction; and 

 

	 	(vii)	 the enforceability of Section 8.20 or 8.21 of the Credit Agreement, the effects of any provision in the
Credit Agreement relating to Bail-In Legislation, action by a Resolution Authority, Write-Down and Conversion Powers or a Bail-In Action or the effect any such provision
or of Bail-In Legislation generally on the obligations of the Company under the Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document, or whether any contract is or may become or may be deemed to be a QFC or Supported
QFC, in each case under any of the U.S. Special Resolution Regimes. 

 Our opinion is also subject to the applicability of
forum non-conveniens doctrine or any other doctrine limiting the availability of the courts in a particular jurisdiction as a forum for the resolution of disputes not having a sufficient nexus to such
jurisdiction. 
 Insofar as our opinions concern the enforceability of the choice of New York law and the permissive rather than exclusive
choice of New York forum provisions of the Credit Agreement, such opinions are rendered in reliance upon New York General Obligations Law §§ 5-1401 and 5-1402
(the “GOL”) and New York Civil Practice Law and Rules 327(b) (the “CPLR” and collectively, with the GOL, the “Act”) and is subject to the qualifications that (i) such enforceability may be limited by public policy
consideration of any jurisdiction, other than the courts of the State of New York, in which enforcement of such provisions, or of a judgment upon an agreement containing such provisions, is sought; (ii) the application of New York law pursuant
to the Act to a transaction that has no contact or only insignificant contact with New York State may be subject to constitutional limitations and may not be given effect in jurisdictions other than New York; (iii) we express no opinion as to
whether such provisions are effective to establish subject matter jurisdiction in any court, and (iv) without limitation to the foregoing, in connection with any provision of any Credit Document whereby the Company submits to the jurisdiction
of any federal court of the United States of America sitting in the Southern District of New York, we note the limitations of and the possible effects of the application or 28 U.S.C. §§1331 and 1332 on federal court jurisdiction or venue.
We note that under CPLR Section 510, a New York State court may have discretion to transfer the place of trial, and under 28 U.S.C. Section 1404(a), a United States District Court has discretion to transfer an action from one Federal court
to another. We also express no opinion as to (x) the law applicable to actions other than contract actions (such as, for example, actions sounding in tort) or (y) the enforceability of the parties’ choice of the internal laws of the
State of New York if such enforceability is determined by an arbitrator or by any court other than a New York State court or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York applying New York law. 

This opinion is being furnished solely to the addressees hereof and to the Lenders who may become parties to the Credit Agreement in
connection with the transaction described above and may not be relied on without our prior written consent for any other purpose or by anyone else. This opinion speaks only as of its date and we undertake no obligation to update it for subsequent
events or legal developments. We consent to reliance on the opinions expressed herein, solely in connection with the Credit Documents, by any successor Administrative Agent or party that becomes a Lender under the Credit Agreement after the date of
this opinion in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement as if this opinion were addressed and delivered to such successor Administrative Agent or additional Lender on the date hereof, 

  
 Exhibit H-2-3 

 
on the condition and understanding that (a) any such reliance must be actual and reasonable under the circumstances existing at the time such successor Administrative Agent or additional
Lender becomes an Administrative Agent or Lender, including any circumstances relating to changes in law, facts or any other developments known to or reasonably knowable by such successor Administrative Agent or additional Lender at such time,
(b) our consent to such reliance shall not constitute a reissuance of the opinions expressed herein or otherwise extend any statute of limitations period applicable hereto on the date hereof, and (c) in no event shall any such successor
Administrative Agent or additional Lender have any greater rights with respect hereto than the original addressees of this letter on the date hereof or than its assignor.

to the Credit Agreement 

December [__], 2022 
 To the Lenders party to the

 Credit Agreement referred to below and 
 Wells Fargo Bank,
National Association, as Administrative Agent 
 Ladies and Gentlemen: 

We have acted as special New York counsel to Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Wells Fargo”), as Administrative Agent,
in connection with the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of December [14], 2022 (the “Credit Agreement”) among Tampa Electric Company (the “Borrower”), the lenders party thereto and the
Administrative Agent. Except as otherwise defined herein, terms defined in the Credit Agreement have the same defined meanings when used herein. 

In rendering the opinions expressed below, we have examined an executed counterpart of the Credit Agreement. In our examination, we have
assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity with authentic original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies. When relevant facts were not independently
established, we have relied upon representations made in or pursuant to the Credit Agreement. We have also assumed that the Credit Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by, and (except, to the extent set forth below, as to the
Borrower) constitutes legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligations of, all of the parties thereto, that all signatories thereto have been duly authorized and that all such parties are duly organized and validly existing and have the power and
authority (corporate or other) to execute, deliver and perform the same. In addition, we have assumed that (i) all conditions required for effectiveness of the Credit Agreement pursuant to Section 3.1 thereof shall have been satisfied and
(ii) notification of the [Closing Date][Amendment Effective Date] pursuant to said Section 3.1 is being given by the Administrative Agent contemporaneously with the delivery of this opinion. 

Based upon and subject to the foregoing and subject also to the comments and qualifications set forth below, and having considered such
questions of law as we have deemed necessary as a basis for the opinions expressed below, we are of the opinion that the Credit Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable against it in accordance with
its terms, except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance or transfer, moratorium or other similar laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally, and except as the enforceability of the
Credit Agreement is subject to the application of general principles of equity (regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), including without limitation (i) the possible unavailability of specific performance,
injunctive relief or any other equitable remedy and (ii) concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing. 
 The
foregoing opinions are also subject to the following comments and qualifications: 
 (A) The enforceability of provisions in
the Credit Agreement to the effect that terms may not be waived or modified except in writing may be limited under certain circumstances. 

(B) The enforceability of Section 5.12 of the Credit Agreement may be limited by laws limiting the enforceability of
provisions exculpating or exempting a party from, or requiring indemnification of or contribution to a party for, liability for its own action or inaction, to the extent the action or inaction involves gross negligence, recklessness, willful
misconduct or unlawful conduct. 

  
 Exhibit H-3-1 

 (C) We express no opinion as to (i) the effect of the laws of any
jurisdiction in which any Lender is located (other than New York) that limits the interest, fees or other charges it may impose for the loan or use of money or other credit, (ii) the last sentence of Section 2.6.2 of the Credit Agreement,
(iii) Section 8.2 of the Credit Agreement, (iv) the first sentence of Section 8.13 of the Credit Agreement, insofar as such sentence relates to the subject-matter jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Southern
District of New York to adjudicate any controversy related to the Credit Agreement or (iv) the waiver of inconvenient forum set forth in the last sentence of Section 8.13 of the Credit Agreement with respect to proceedings in the
United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. 
 The foregoing opinions are limited to matters involving the Federal
laws of the United States and the law of the State of New York, and we do not express any opinion as to the law of any other jurisdiction. 

This opinion letter is provided to you by us as special New York counsel to Wells Fargo as the Administrative Agent pursuant to
Section 3.1.4 of the Credit Agreement and may not be relied upon by any other person or for any purpose other than in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Credit Agreement without our prior written consent in each instance.

 AWARDS 

Article 4 
  

	4.1	 Awards can only be granted to Eligible Participants. 

 

 
  
 
9
 
  

	4.2	 No Award is intended to confer any rights on the relevant Participant except as set forth in the
applicable Award Agreement. In particular, no Award should be construed as giving any Participant the right to remain employed by or to continue to provide services for the Company or any Subsidiary. 

 

	4.3	 Awards shall be granted for no consideration or for such minimal cash consideration as may be required
by applicable law. 

  

	4.4	 Awards may be granted alone or in addition or in tandem with any other Award and/or any award under any
other plan of the Company or any Subsidiary. Awards granted in addition or in tandem with any other Award and/or any award under any other plan of the Company or any Subsidiary may be granted simultaneously or at different times.

  

	4.5	 Each Award shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement entered into between the Company and the Participant
concerned. Until an Award Agreement has been entered into between the Company and the relevant Participant, no rights can be derived from the Awards concerning such Participant. 

 

	4.6	 Plan Shares, including Awards in the form of Shares of Restricted Stock, shall be delivered in such
form(s) as may be determined by the Committee and shall be subject to such stop transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may deem required or advisable. Furthermore, the Committee may determine that certificates for such Shares shall
bear an appropriate legend referring to the terms, conditions and restrictions applicable thereto. 

  

	4.7	 The terms and conditions applicable to Awards, including the time(s) when Awards vest in whole or in
part and any applicable Performance Criteria, shall be set by the Committee and may vary between Awards and between Participants, as the Committee deems appropriate. The Committee may also determine whether and under which circumstances Awards shall
be settled automatically upon vesting, without being exercised by the Participant. 

  

	4.8	 The term of an Award shall be determined by the Committee, but shall not exceed ten years from the
applicable Grant Date. Unless determined otherwise by the Committee, if the exercise of an Award is prohibited by applicable law or the Company’s insider trading policy on the last business day of the term of such Award, such term shall be
extended for a period of one month following the end of such prohibition. 

  

	4.9	 Unless determined otherwise by the Committee, Awards cannot be transferred, pledged or otherwise
encumbered, except by testament or hereditary law as a result of death of the Participant concerned. 

  

	4.10	 If, as a result of changes in applicable law, accounting principles or tax rules and regulations, or due
to a variation of the composition of the Company’s issued share capital (including a share split, reverse share split, redenomination of the nominal value, or as a result of a dividend or other distribution, reorganisation, acquisition, merger,
demerger, business combination or other transaction involving the Company or a Subsidiary), an adjustment to this Plan, any Award Agreement and/or outstanding Awards is necessary to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential
benefits intended to be made available under this Plan, the Committee may adjust equitably any or all of: 

  

	 	a.	 the number of Plan Shares available under this Plan; 

 

 
  
 
10
 
  

	 	b.	 the number of Plan Shares underlying outstanding Awards; and/or 

 

	 	c.	 the Exercise Price or other terms applicable to outstanding Awards. 

 

	4.11	 Any rights, payments and benefits under any Award shall be subject to repayment and/or recoupment by the
Company in accordance with applicable law, stock exchange rules and such policies and procedures as the Company may adopt from time to time. 

TYPES OF AWARDS 
 Article 5 

 

	5.1	 The Committee may grant Awards in the form of Options, SARs, Shares of Restricted Stock, RSUs, Other
Awards or a combination of the foregoing. Options granted to U.S. Participants shall be Nonstatutory Stock Options, as defined and specified in Annex A. 

  

	5.2	 Upon the exercise or settlement of vested Options, the Company shall be obliged to deliver to the
Participant concerned (or the beneficiary of such Options, as applicable), the Plan Shares underlying such Options (unless otherwise set forth in the Award Agreement). 

 

	5.3	 Upon the exercise or settlement of vested SARs, the Company shall be obliged to pay to the Participant
concerned (or the beneficiary of such SARs, as applicable) an amount equal to the number of Plan Shares underlying such SARs multiplied by the excess, if any, of the FMV of one Share on the applicable Exercise Date over the applicable Exercise
Price. The Company may satisfy such payment obligation in cash, in assets, in the form of Shares valued at FMV, or a combination thereof, at the discretion of the Committee. 

 

	5.4	 The exercise by a Participant of his rights attached to Shares of Restricted Stock shall be subject to
such restrictions as the Committee may impose, including with respect to voting rights and the right to receive dividends or other distributions made by the Company. Upon the vesting of Shares of Restricted Stock, any such restrictions and
conditions shall lapse with respect to those Shares. If an Award in the form of Shares of Restricted Stock is cancelled or otherwise terminated, the Participant shall be obliged to transfer all of his unvested Shares of Restricted Stock to the
Company promptly and for no consideration. 

  

	5.5	 Upon the exercise or settlement of vested RSUs, the Company shall be obliged to pay to the Participant
concerned (or the beneficiary of such RSUs, as applicable) an amount equal to the number of Plan Shares underlying such RSUs multiplied by the FMV of one Share on the applicable Exercise Date. The Company may satisfy such payment obligation in cash,
in assets, in the form of Shares valued at FMV, or a combination thereof, at the discretion of the Committee (unless otherwise set forth in the Award Agreement). 

 

	5.6	 The Committee may determine that a Participant holding one or more RSUs is entitled to receive dividends
and other distributions made by the Company on the Shares, as if such Participant held the Plan Shares underlying such RSUs. The Committee may impose restrictions with respect to such entitlement.

 PERFORMANCE CRITERIA 

Article 6 
  

	6.1	 The Committee may condition the right of a Participant to exercise one or more of his Awards or the
vesting of one or more of his Awards, and the timing thereof, upon the achievement or satisfaction of such Performance Criteria as may be determined by the Committee, within periods specified by the Committee. 

 

	6.2	 If an Award is subject to Performance Criteria which must be achieved or satisfied within a period
specified by the Committee for that purpose, such Award can only be exercised or settled at or after the end of that period. 

  

	6.3	 Performance Criteria may be measured on an absolute or relative basis and may be established on a
Company-wide basis or with respect to one or more business units, divisions, Subsidiaries and/or business segments. Relative performance may be measured against a group of peer companies determined by the Committee, financial market indices and/or
other objective and quantifiable indices. Performance Criteria may relate to performance by the Company and/or by the Participant concerned. 

  

	6.4	 If the Committee determines that a change in the business, operations, group structure or capital
structure of the Company, or other events or circumstances, render certain Performance Criteria applicable to outstanding Awards unsuitable or inappropriate, the Committee may amend or waive such Performance Criteria, in whole or in part, as the
Committee deems appropriate. 

 PLAN SHARES AVAILABLE FOR AWARDS 

Article 7 
  

	7.1	 Subject to Articles 4.10 and 7.2, the Plan Shares underlying Awards which are not Replacement Awards,
irrespective of whether such Awards have been exercised or settled, may not represent more than the Aggregate Share Pool. 

  

	7.2	 Plan Shares underlying Awards, except for Replacement Awards, which expire, which are cancelled or
otherwise terminated, or which are exercised or settled in cash or assets in lieu of Plan Shares, shall again be available under this Plan and shall not be counted towards the limit imposed by Article 7.1. 

VESTING, EXERCISE AND SETTLEMENT 
 Article 8 

 

	8.1	 Each Award Agreement shall contain the vesting schedule and, where relevant, delivery schedule (which
may include deferred delivery later than the vesting dates) for the relevant Awards. 

 

 
  
 
12
 
  

	8.2	 Only vested Awards may be exercised or settled in accordance with their terms. An Award can only be
exercised (to the extent it is not settled automatically) by or on behalf of the Participant holding such Award. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Plan, the exercise or settlement of a vested Award shall always be and remain suspended
until a registration statement registering the issuance of the Plan Shares issuable pursuant thereto has been filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and is effective. 

 

	8.3	 An Award can only be exercised through the use of an electronic system or platform to be designated by
the Committee (if and when such system or platform has been set up by the Company), or otherwise by delivering written notice to the Company in a form approved by the Committee. 

 

	8.4	 Subject to Article 9.1, the Committee shall determine the Exercise Price, provided that the Exercise
Price for an Award which can be exercised or settled in the form of Plan Shares shall not be less than the aggregate nominal value of such Plan Shares. 

  

	8.5	 Upon the exercise of an Award, the applicable Exercise Price must immediately be paid in cash, wire
transfer of immediately available funds or by check payable to the order of the Company, provided that the Committee, subject to applicable law, may allow, including by providing for such treatment in an Award Agreement, such Exercise Price to be
satisfied on a cashless or net settlement basis, applying any of the following methods (or a combination thereof): 

  

	 	a.	 by means of an immediate sale by or on behalf of the relevant Participant of part of the Plan Shares
underlying the Award being exercised, with sale proceeds equal to the Exercise Price being remitted to the Company and any remaining net sale proceeds (less applicable costs, if any) being paid to such Participant; 

 

	 	b.	 by means of the relevant Participant forfeiting his entitlement to receive part of the Plan Shares
underlying the Award being exercised at FMV on the Exercise Date and charging the aggregate nominal value of the remaining Plan Shares underlying such Award against the Company’s reserves; 

 

	 	c.	 by means of the relevant Participant surrendering his entitlement to receive part of the Plan Shares
underlying the Award being exercised at FMV on the Exercise Date, against the Company becoming due an equivalent amount to such Participant and setting off that obligation against the Company’s receivable with respect to payment of the
applicable Exercise Price; or 

  

	 	d.	 by means of the relevant Participant surrendering and transferring Shares to the Company (which may
include Plan Shares underlying the Award being exercised) at FMV on the Exercise Date. 

 

 
  
 
13
 
  

	8.6	 When an Award is exercised or settled in the form of Plan Shares, the Company shall, at the discretion
of the Committee, subject to applicable law and the Company’s insider trading policy: 

  

	 	a.	 issue new Plan Shares to the relevant Participant; or 

 

	 	b.	 transfer existing Plan Shares held by the Company to the relevant Participant, 

provided, in each case, that Plan Shares may be delivered in the form of book-entry securities representing those Plan Shares (or beneficial
ownership of those Plan Shares entitling the holder to exercise or direct the exercise of voting rights attached thereto) credited to the securities account designated by the relevant Participant. Furthermore, Plan Shares may be delivered as
described in the previous sentence to a Person designated by the relevant Participant, with the prior approval of the Committee, as beneficiary of his Award. 
  

	8.7	 If an Award is exercised or settled in the form of Plan Shares and such Award does not relate to a whole
number of Plan Shares, the number of Plan Shares underlying such Award shall be rounded down to the nearest integer. 

 PRICING
RESTRICTIONS FOR OPTIONS AND SARS 
 Article 9 
  

	9.1	 Except for Replacement Awards, the Exercise Price for an Option or SAR shall not be less than the higher
of: 

  

	 	a.	 the FMV of a Plan Share on the applicable Grant Date and, in case of a SAR being granted in connection
with an Option, on the Grant Date of such Option; or 

  

	 	b.	 the nominal value of a Plan Share. 

 

	9.2	 Except as provided in Article 4.10, the Committee may not, without prior approval of the General
Meeting, seek to effect any re-pricing of any outstanding “underwater” Option or SAR by: 

  

	 	a.	 amending or modifying the terms of such Award to lower the Exercise Price; 

 

	 	b.	 cancelling such Award and granting in exchange either (i) replacement Options or SARs having a
lower Exercise Price, or (ii) Restricted Stock, RSUs or Other Awards; or 

  

	 	c.	 cancelling or repurchasing such Award for cash, assets or other securities. 

 

	9.3	 Options and SARs will be considered to be “underwater” within the meaning of Article 9.2 at
any time when the FMV of the Plan Shares underlying such Awards is less than the applicable Exercise Price.

 U.S. PARTICIPANTS 

Article 10 
  

	10.1	 With respect to any Award subject to Section 409A IRC and Section 457A IRC, this Plan and the
applicable Award Agreement are intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A IRC and Section 457A IRC, the provisions of this Plan and such Award Agreement shall be interpreted in a manner that satisfies the requirements of
Section 409A IRC and Section 457A IRC, and this Plan shall be operated accordingly. If any provision of this Plan or any term or condition of any Award subject to Section 409A IRC and Section 457A IRC would otherwise frustrate or
conflict with this intent, the provision, term or condition will be interpreted and deemed amended so as to avoid this conflict. 

  

	10.2	 Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the contrary or any Award Agreement, a termination of
employment shall not deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of an Award that is subject to Section 409A IRC providing for payment upon or as a result of a termination of a Participant’s employment unless such termination is
also a “separation from service” and, for purposes of any such provision of such Award, references to a “termination”, “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean “separation from service”.

  

	10.3	 If all or part of any payments made, or other benefits conferred, under any Award subject to
Section 409A IRC constitutes deferred compensation for purposes of Section 409A IRC as a result of a “separation from service” of the relevant Participant (other than due to his death) within the meaning of Section 409A IRC
while such Participant is a “specified employee” under Section 409A IRC, then such payment or benefit shall not be made or conferred until six months and one business day have elapsed after the date of such “separation from
service”, except as permitted under Section 409A IRC. 

  

	10.4	 If an Award includes a “series of installment payments” within the meaning of Section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(iii) of the United States Treasury Regulations, the right of the relevant Participant to such series of instalment payments shall be treated as a right to a series of separate payments
and not as a right to a single payment, and if such an Award includes “dividend equivalents” within the meaning of Section 1.409A-3(e) of the United States Treasury Regulations, the right of the
relevant Participant to such dividend equivalents shall be treated separately from the right to other amounts or other benefits under such Award. 

  

	10.5	 For any Award subject to Section 409A IRC or Section 457A IRC that provides for accelerated
distribution on a Change of Control of amounts that constitute “deferred compensation” as defined in Section 409A IRC and Section 457A IRC, if the event that constitutes such Change of Control does not also constitute a change in
the ownership or effective control of the Company, or in the ownership of a substantial portion of the Company’s assets (in either case, as defined in Section 409A IRC), such amount shall not be distributed on such Change of Control but
instead shall vest as of the date of such Change of Control and shall be paid on the scheduled payment date specified in the applicable Award Agreement, except to the extent that earlier distribution would not result in the relevant Participant
incurring any additional tax, penalty, interest or other expense under Section 409A IRC and Section 457A IRC. 

  

	10.6	 Notwithstanding the foregoing in this Article 10, the tax treatment of the benefits provided under this
Plan or any Award Agreement is not warranted or guaranteed, and in no event shall the Company be liable for all or any portion of any taxes, penalties, interest or other expenses that may be incurred by a U.S. Participant on account of non-compliance with Section 409A IRC and Section 457A IRC. 

 

 
  
 
15
 
  

	10.7	 Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to the contrary or any Award Agreement, in the event the
Committee determines that any Award may be subject to Section 409A IRC or Section 457A IRC, the Committee may adopt such amendments to this Plan and the applicable Award Agreement or adopt other policies and procedures (including
amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect), or take any other actions, that the Committee determined are necessary or appropriate to: 

  

	 	a.	 exempt the Award from Section 409A IRC or Section 457A IRC and/or preserve the intended tax
treatment of the benefits provided with respect to the Award; or 

  

	 	b.	 comply with the requirements of Section 409A IRC or Section 457A IRC and thereby avoid the
application of any adverse tax consequences under such Sections. 

 LEAVER 

Article 11 
  

	11.1	 If a Participant becomes a Good Leaver, unless otherwise determined by the Committee or set forth in an
Award Agreement: 

  

	 	a.	 all vested Awards that have not yet been exercised or settled must be exercised or settled in accordance
with their terms within a period specified by the Committee and, if such Awards are not exercised or (through no fault of the Participant concerned) not settled within such period, they shall be cancelled automatically without compensation for the
loss of such Awards; and 

  

	 	b.	 all unvested Awards of such Participant shall be cancelled automatically without compensation for the
loss of such Awards, unless the Committee decides otherwise. 

  

	11.2	 If a Participant becomes a Bad Leaver, all vested Awards of such Participant which have not been
exercised or settled, as well as all unvested Awards of such Participant, shall be cancelled automatically without compensation for the loss of such Awards. 

CHANGE OF CONTROL 
 Article 12 

 

	12.1	 If long-term incentive awards are granted in assumption of, or in substitution or exchange for,
outstanding Awards in connection with a Change of Control and the Committee has determined that such awards are sufficiently equivalent to the outstanding Awards concerned, then such outstanding Awards shall be cancelled and terminated upon the
replacement awards being granted to the Participants concerned. 

 

 
  
 
16
 
  

	12.2	 If, in connection with a Change of Control, outstanding Awards are not replaced by long-term incentive
awards as described in Article 12.1, or are replaced by long-term incentive awards which the Committee does not consider to be sufficiently equivalent to such outstanding Awards, then such Awards shall immediately vest and, where relevant, settle in
full, unless the Committee decides otherwise. 

  

	12.3	 For purposes of this Article 12, awards shall not be considered to be “sufficiently
equivalent” to outstanding Awards, if the underlying securities are not widely held and publicly traded on a regulated national stock exchange. 

LOCK-UP 

Article 13 
  

	13.1	 In connection with any registration of the Company’s securities under United States securities
laws, to the extent requested by the Company or the underwriters managing any offering of the Company’s securities, and except as otherwise approved by the Committee or pursuant to any exceptions approved by such underwriters, a Participant may
not Transfer any Shares acquired by a Participant pursuant to the issuance, vesting, exercise or settlement of any Award prior to such period following the effective date of such registration as designated by such underwriters, not to exceed 180
days following such registration. 

  

	13.2	 The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the Shares subject to the restriction
stipulated by Article 13.1 until the end of the lock-up period referred to in that provision. 

TAX 
 Article 14 

 

	14.1	 Any and all tax liability (e.g., any wage tax or income tax) and employee social security premiums due
in connection with or resulting from the granting, vesting, exercise or settlement of an Award (or the implementation of the Plan) or any payment or transfer under an Award (or under the Plan generally) shall be for the account of the relevant
Participant. 

  

	14.2	 The Company or any Subsidiary may, and each Participant shall permit the Company or any Subsidiary to,
withhold from any Award granted or any payment due or transfer made under any Award (or under the Plan generally) or from any compensation or other amount owing to a Participant the amount (in cash, Shares, other Awards, other property, net
settlement or any combination thereof) of applicable income taxes or (wage) withholding taxes due in respect of an Award, the grant of an Award, its exercise or settlement (or the implementation of the Plan), or any payment or transfer under such
Award (or under the Plan generally) and to take such other action, including providing for (elective) payment of such amounts in cash or Shares by the Participant, as may be necessary in the option of the Company to satisfy all obligations for the
payment of such taxes. In addition, the Company may cause the sale by or on behalf of the relevant Participant of part of the Plan Shares underlying any Award being exercised or settled, with sale proceeds equal to the applicable wage or withholding
taxes being remitted to the Company and any remaining net sale proceeds (less applicable costs, if any) being paid to such Participant. 

 

 
  
 
17
 
  

	14.3	 This Plan is governed by the tax laws and social security legislation and regulations prevailing at the
date a certain taxable event occurs. If any tax and/or employee social security legislation or regulations are amended and any tax or employee social security levies become payable as a result of such legislative amendment, the costs and the risk
related thereto shall be born solely by the relevant Participant. 

  

	14.4	 Notwithstanding the provisions of Article 14.2, where, in relation to an Award granted under this Plan,
the Company or any Subsidiary (as the case may be) is liable, or is in accordance with the current practice believed by the Committee to be liable, to account for any tax or social security authority for any sum in respect of any tax or social
security liability of the Participant, the Award may not be exercised unless the relevant Participant has paid to the Company or the relevant Subsidiary (as the case may be) an amount sufficient to discharge the liability). 

 

	14.5	 If, and to the extent, the Company or any Subsidiary (as the case may be) is not reimbursed, by means of
the provisions of Article 14.2 or 14.4, for any wage tax or income tax, employee’s social security contributions liability or any other liabilities for which the Company or a Subsidiary (as the case may be) has an obligation to withhold and
account, the Participant shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company or any Subsidiary (as the case may be) for any such taxes paid by the Company or any Subsidiary (as the case may be). 

 

	14.6	 For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Article 14 shall apply to a Participant’s
liabilities that may arise on a taxable event in any jurisdiction. 

 DATA PROTECTION 

Article 15 
  

	15.1	 The Company may process personal data relating to the Participants in connection with the administration
and operation of this Plan. The personal data of the Participants which may be processed in this respect may include a copy of an identification document, contact details and bank and securities account numbers. Each Participant’s personal data
shall be stored by the Company for such time period as is necessary to administer such Participant’s participation in the Plan or as otherwise permitted under applicable law. 

 

	15.2	 Each Participant’s personal data shall be handled by the Company in accordance with applicable law,
including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the rules and regulations promulgated pursuant thereto. Participants have the right to lodge complaints with an applicable supervisory authority regarding the Company’s processing of
personal data pursuant to this Plan. 

 

 
  
 
18
 
  

	15.3	 The Company shall implement technical, physical and organisational measures designed to protect personal
data processed pursuant to Article 15.1. Personnel or third parties that have access to such personal data shall be bound by confidentiality obligations. 

  

	15.4	 The Company shall abide by any statutory rights the Participants may have regarding their respective
personal data processed pursuant to Article 15.1, which may include the right to access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, objection to processing and portability of such personal data. 

 

	15.5	 In connection with the administration and operation of this Plan, the Company may transfer personal data
processed pursuant to Article 15.1 to one or more third parties, provided that there is a legitimate interest in doing so. Where such third parties are located outside the European Economic Area in countries that are not considered to provide for an
adequate level of data protection, the Company shall ensure that sufficient data protection safeguards are put in place, failing which explicit consent for such transfer shall be obtained from the Participant(s) concerned. 

 

	15.6	 The Company may establish one or more privacy policies providing further information on data protection
and applying to the processing of personal data of the Participants by the Company in connection with the administration and operation of this Plan. 

AMENDMENTS, TERM AND TERMINATION 
 Article 16 

 

	16.1	 Except to the extent prohibited by applicable law and unless otherwise expressly provided in an Award
Agreement, the Board may amend, supplement, suspend or terminate this Plan (or any portion thereof) pursuant to a resolution to that effect, provided that no such amendment, supplement, suspension or termination shall take effect without:

  

	 	a.	 approval of the General Meeting, if such approval is required by applicable law or stock exchange rules;
and/or 

  

	 	b.	 the consent of the affected Participant(s), if such action would materially and adversely affect the
rights of such Participant(s) under any outstanding Award, except to the extent that any such amendment, supplement or termination is made to cause this Plan to comply with applicable law, stock exchange rules, accounting principles or tax rules and
regulations. 

  

	16.2	 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, the Committee may amend the Plan and/or any Award
Agreement in such manner as may be necessary or desirable to enable the Plan and/or such Award Agreement to achieve its stated purposes in any jurisdiction in a tax-efficient manner and in compliance with
local laws, rules and regulations to recognise differences in local law, tax policy or custom. The Committee also may impose conditions on the exercise or vesting of Awards in order to minimise the Company’s obligation with respect to tax
equalisation for Participants on assignments outside their home country and/or to enable the Company to meet its obligations with respect to the withholding of taxes and social security contributions. 

 

 
  
 
19
 
  

	16.3	 The Plan shall become effective on the Effective Date. To the extent the Company is or becomes subject
to the requirements of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(c) (or any successor thereto), no Awards may be granted after the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date. 

GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION 
 Article 17 

This Plan shall be governed by and shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the Netherlands. Subject to Article 3.1 paragraph g., any dispute arising
in connection with these rules shall be submitted to the exclusive jurisdiction of the competent court in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.

 Annex A - Addendum for U.S. Participants 

 

	1	 Definitions 

  

	1.1	 Except as otherwise defined below, capitalised terms used herein have the meanings ascribed thereto in

in Sections 22(e)(3) and 409A(a)(2)(c)(i) of the Code, and will be determined by the Board on the basis of such medical evidence as the Board deems warranted under the circumstances.

Board in compliance with Section 409A of the Code. 

  

	 	d.	 “Incentive Stock Option” or “ISO” means an Option that is intended to

	2	 Purpose and Applicability. 

 

	2.1	 This U.S. Addendum applies to U.S. Participants. The purpose of the U.S. Addendum is to facilitate
compliance with U.S. tax, securities and other applicable laws, and to facilitate the Company to issue Awards to eligible U.S. Participants. 

  

	2.2	 Except as otherwise provided by the U.S. Addendum, all grants of Awards made to U.S. Participants will
be governed by the terms of the Plan, when read together with the U.S. Addendum. In any case of an irreconcilable contradiction (as determined by the Board) between the provisions of the U.S. Addendum and the Plan, the provisions of the U.S.
Addendum will govern. 

  

	3	 Additional Terms and Conditions Applicable to All Options Granted to U.S. Participants.

  

	3.1	 Maximum Term of Options. No Option will be exercisable after the expiration of ten
(10) years from the Grant Date, or such shorter period specified in the applicable Award Agreement. 

  

	3.2	 Exercise Price. No Option, other than an Option constituting a Replacement Award, shall have an
Exercise Price that is less than Fair Market Value on the Grant Date. Any Options that are Replacement Awards granted to U.S. Participants shall be granted in accordance with U.S. Treasury Regulation §
1.409A-1(b)(5)(v)(D). 

  

	3.3	 Transferability of Options. A U.S. Participant may only transfer an Option if permitted by the
Board. The Board may only permit transfer of the Option in a manner that is permitted by the Plan and is not prohibited by applicable U.S. tax and securities laws. The Board, in its sole discretion, may impose such limitations on the transferability
of Options as the Board will determine. In the absence of such a determination by the Board to the contrary, the following restrictions on the transferability of Options will apply: 

 

	 	a.	 Restriction on Transfer. An Option will not be transferable except by will or by the laws of
descent and distribution (or pursuant to paragraphs a. and b. below), and will be exercisable during the lifetime of the U.S. Participant only by the U.S. Participant. An Option may not be transferred for consideration. 

 

	 	b.	 Domestic Relations Orders. Subject to the approval of the Board, an Option may be transferred
pursuant to the terms of a domestic relations order, official marital settlement agreement or other divorce or separation instrument. 

 

 
  
 
22
 
  

	 	c.	 Beneficiary Designation. Subject to the approval of the Board, a U.S. Participant may, by
delivering written notice to the Company, in a form approved by the Company (or the designated broker), designate a third party who, on the death of the U.S. Participant, will thereafter be entitled to exercise the Option and receive the Plan Shares
or other consideration resulting from such exercise. In the absence of such a designation, upon the death of the U.S. Participant, the executor or administrator of the U.S. Participant’s estate will be entitled to exercise the Option and
receive the Plan Shares or other consideration resulting from such exercise. However, the Company may prohibit designation of a beneficiary at any time, including due to any conclusion by the Company that such designation would be inconsistent with
the provisions of applicable laws. 

  

	3.4	 Eligible Recipients of Awards. Awards may not be granted to any person whose employment or other
service with the Company has not yet commenced. 

  

	4	 Tax Matters 

  

	4.1	 Tax Withholding Requirement. Prior to the delivery of any Plan Shares pursuant to the exercise of
an Option or pursuant to any other Award, the Company will have the power and the right to deduct or withhold, or require a U.S. Participant to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy U.S. federal, state, local, non-U.S. or other taxes required to be withheld with respect to such Award. 

  

	4.2	 Withholding Arrangements. The Company may, in its sole discretion, satisfy any U.S. federal,
state, local, foreign or other tax withholding obligation relating to an Award by any of the following means or by a combination of such means: (i) causing the U.S. Participant to tender a cash payment; (ii) withholding Shares issued or
otherwise issuable to the U.S. Participant in connection with the Award; or (iii) withholding payment from any amounts otherwise payable to the U.S. Participant. 

 

	4.3	 No Obligation to Notify or Minimize Taxes. The Company will have no duty or obligation to
the U.S. Participant to advise such holder as to the time or manner of exercising the Option. Furthermore, the Company will have no duty or obligation to warn or otherwise advise such holder of a pending termination or expiration of an Option or a
possible period in which the Option may not be exercised. The Company has no duty or obligation to minimize the tax consequences of an Award to the U.S. Participant.
