Borrowing (I) an applicable Interest Period in the case of a LIBOR Loan, then such notice shall be deemed to be a request for an Interest Period of one month, or (II) the type of Revolving Loan requested, then such notice shall be deemed to be a
request for a Base Rate Loan hereunder, in the case of Revolving Loans denominated in Dollars, or a LIBOR Loan in any other case. The Administrative Agent shall give notice to each Lender promptly upon receipt of each Notice of Borrowing pursuant to
this Section 2.1(b)(i), the contents thereof and each such Lender’s share of any borrowing to be made pursuant thereto. 
  
 (ii) Minimum Amounts. Each Revolving Loan shall be in a minimum aggregate principal Dollar Amount of $5,000,000, in the case of
LIBOR Loans, or $1,000,000 (or the remaining Revolving Committed Amount, if less), in the case of Base Rate Loans, and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof 
  
 (iii) Advances. Each Lender will make its Revolving Commitment Percentage of each Revolving Loan
borrowing available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Borrower as specified in Section 3.17(b), or in such other manner as the Administrative Agent may specify in writing, by 12:00 noon (Charlotte, North Carolina time or
local time where the deposit is to be made in Available Foreign Currency) on the date specified in the applicable Notice of Borrowing in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent. Such borrowing will then be made available to the
Borrower by the Administrative Agent by crediting the account designated by the Borrower with the aggregate of the amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by the Lenders and in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent.

  
 (c) Repayment. The principal amount of all Revolving
Loans shall be due and payable in full on the earlier of (i) the Termination Date and (ii) the date that the Loans are accelerated pursuant to Section 8.2. Additionally, Revolving Loan payments may be due in part in accordance with Section

 19 

 (d) Interest. Subject to the provisions of Section 3.1:

 (ii) LIBOR Loans. During such periods as Revolving Loans shall comprise in whole or in part LIBOR
Loans, such LIBOR Loans shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Rate plus (in the case of a LIBOR Loan of any Lender which is lent from a Lending Office in the United Kingdom or a

 (f) Maximum Number of LIBOR Loans. The Borrower will be limited to a maximum number of eight (8) LIBOR Loans outstanding at any time. For purposes hereof, LIBOR Loans with separate or different Interest Periods will be considered as

 2.2 Competitive Loan Subfacility. 
  
 (a) Competitive Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and in reliance upon the representations and warranties set forth herein, the Borrower may, during the Commitment Period, request and each
Lender may, in its sole discretion, agree to make, Competitive Loans in Dollars and Available Foreign Currencies to the Borrower; provided, however, that (i) the aggregate principal Dollar Amount (determined as of the most recent
Determination Date) of outstanding Competitive Loans shall not at any time exceed FOUR HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS ($400,000,000) (the “Competitive Loan Maximum Amount”), and (ii) with regard to the Lenders collectively,
the aggregate principal Dollar Amount (determined as of the most recent Determination Date) of Revolving Obligations outstanding at any time shall not exceed the Aggregate Revolving Committed Amount. Each Competitive Loan shall be in an aggregate

 (b) Competitive Bid Requests. The Borrower may solicit Competitive Bids by delivery of a Competitive Bid Request
substantially in the form of Schedule 2.2(b)-1 to the Administrative Agent by 12:00 Noon (Charlotte, North Carolina time) on a Business Day (x) not less than four (4) nor more than six (6) Business Days prior to the date of a requested
Competitive Loan borrowing in Dollars and (y) not less than six (6) nor more than eight (8) 
  

 20 

 Business Days prior to the date of a requested Competitive Loan borrowing in Available Foreign Currencies. A Competitive
Bid Request shall specify (i) the date of the requested Competitive Loan borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) the currency and amount of the requested Competitive Loan borrowing and (iii) the applicable Interest Periods requested. The
Administrative Agent shall, promptly following its receipt of a Competitive Bid Request under this subsection (b), notify the affected Lenders of its receipt and the contents thereof and invite the Lenders to submit Competitive Bids in
response thereto. The form of such notice is provided in Schedule 2.2(b)-2. No more than three (3) Competitive Bid Requests (i.e., the Borrower may request Competitive Bids for no more than three (3) different Interest Periods at any one
time) shall be submitted at any one time and Competitive Bid Requests may be made no more frequently than once every five (5) Business Days. 
  
 (c) Competitive Bid Procedure. Each Lender may, in its sole discretion, make one or more Competitive Bids to the Borrower in response to a
Competitive Bid Request. Each Competitive Bid must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 10:00 A.M. (Charlotte, North Carolina time) on the Business Day next succeeding the date of receipt by the Administrative Agent of the related
Competitive Bid Request. A Lender may offer to make all or part of the requested Competitive Loan borrowing and may submit multiple Competitive Bids in response to a Competitive Bid Request. The Competitive Bid shall specify (i) the particular
Competitive Bid Request as to which the Competitive Bid is submitted, (ii) the currency and the minimum (which shall be not less than $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof) and maximum principal Dollar Amounts of the
requested Competitive Loan or Loans as to which the Lender is willing to make, and (iii) the applicable interest rate or rates and Interest Period or Periods therefor. The form of such Competitive Bid is provided in Schedule 2.2(c). A
Competitive Bid submitted by a Lender in accordance with the provisions hereof shall be irrevocable. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify, but in no event later than 10:30 A.M. (Charlotte, North Carolina time), the Borrower of all
Competitive Bids made and the terms thereof. The Administrative Agent shall send a copy of each of the Competitive Bids to the Borrower for its records as soon as practicable (and in any event within two (2) Business Days following receipt of the
bids). 
  
 (d) Submission of Competitive Bids by Agent. If
the Administrative Agent, in its capacity as a Lender, elects to submit a Competitive Bid in response to any Competitive Bid Request, it shall submit such Competitive Bid directly to the Borrower one-half of an hour earlier than the latest time at
which the other Lenders are required to submit their Competitive Bids to the Administrative Agent in response to such Competitive Bid Request pursuant to subsection (c) above. 
  
 (e) Acceptance of Competitive Bids. The Borrower may, in its sole and absolute discretion, subject only to the
provisions of this subsection (e), accept or refuse any Competitive Bid offered to it. To accept a Competitive Bid, the Borrower shall give telephone notification, which shall be binding, by 11:30 A.M. (Charlotte, North Carolina time) and
confirmed with written notification substantially in the form of Schedule 2.2(e) of its acceptance of any or all such Competitive Bids to the Administrative Agent by 1:30 P.M. (Charlotte, North Carolina time) on the latest date on which
notice of election to make a Competitive Bid is to be given to the Administrative Agent by the Lenders; provided, however, (i) the failure by the Borrower to 
  

 21 

 give timely notice of its acceptance of a Competitive Bid shall be deemed to be a refusal thereof, (ii) the Borrower may
accept Competitive Bids within any one Interest Period only in ascending order of rates, (iii) the aggregate amount of Competitive Bids accepted by the Borrower shall not exceed the principal amount specified in the Competitive Bid Request, (iv) the
Borrower may accept a portion of a Competitive Bid in the event, and to the extent, acceptance of the entire amount thereof would cause the Borrower to exceed the principal amount specified in the Competitive Bid Request, subject however to the
minimum amounts provided herein (and provided that where two or more Lenders submit such a Competitive Bid at the same Competitive Bid Rate and for the same Interest Period, then pro rata between or among such Lenders) and (v) no bid shall be
accepted for a Competitive Loan unless such Competitive Loan is in a minimum principal Dollar Amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof, except that where a portion of a Competitive Bid is accepted in accordance with
the provisions of subsection (iv) hereof, then in a minimum principal Dollar Amount of $500,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof (but not in any event less than the minimum amount specified in the Competitive Bid), and in
calculating the pro rata allocation of acceptances of portions of multiple bids at a particular Competitive Bid Rate pursuant to subsection (iv) hereof, the amounts shall be rounded to integral multiples of $100,000 in a manner which shall be
in the discretion of the Borrower. A notice of acceptance of a Competitive Bid given by the Borrower in accordance with the provisions hereof shall be irrevocable. The Administrative Agent shall, not later than 12:00 Noon (Charlotte, North Carolina
time) on the date of receipt by the Administrative Agent of a notification from the Borrower of its acceptance and/or refusal of Competitive Bids, notify each affected Lender of its receipt and the contents thereof. Upon its receipt from the
Administrative Agent of notification of the Borrower’s acceptance of its Competitive Bid in accordance with the terms of this subsection (e), each successful bidding Lender will thereupon become bound, subject to the other applicable
conditions hereof, to make the Competitive Loan in respect of which its bid has been accepted. 
  
 (f) Funding of Competitive Loans. Each Lender which is to make a Competitive Loan shall make its Competitive Loan borrowing available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Borrower at the office of
the Administrative Agent specified in Schedule 10.1, or at such other office as the Administrative Agent may designate in writing, by 1:30 P.M. (Charlotte, North Carolina time) on the date specified in the Competitive Bid Request in funds
immediately available to the Administrative Agent. Such borrowing will then be made available to the Borrower by crediting the account designated by the Borrower. 
  
 (g) Maturity of Competitive Loans. Each Competitive Loan shall mature and be due and payable in full on the last day
of the Interest Period applicable thereto, unless accelerated sooner pursuant to Section 8.2. Unless the Borrower shall give notice to the Administrative Agent otherwise, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Revolving Loan
borrowing in the principal amount and currency of the maturing Competitive Loan, the proceeds of which will be used to repay such Competitive Loan. 
  
 (h) Interest on Competitive Loans. Subject to the provisions of Section 3.1, Competitive Loans shall bear interest in each case at the
Competitive Bid Rate applicable thereto. Interest on Competitive Loans shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date. 
  

 22 

 (i) Competitive Loan Notes. The Competitive Loans made by each Lender shall be evidenced by a
Revolving Note. 
  
 2.3 Letters of Credit.

  
 (a) The Letter of Credit Commitment. 

 
 (i) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein,
(A)(1) the L/C Issuer agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the Lenders set forth in this Section 2.3, (1) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date until the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, to
issue Letters of Credit in Dollars and Available Foreign Currencies for the account of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, and to amend or extend Letters of Credit previously issued by it, in accordance with subsection (b) below, and (2)
each L/C Issuer agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the Lenders set forth in this Section 2.3, from time to time on any Business Day to honor drawings under the Letters of Credit; and (B) the Lenders severally agree to participate in
Letters of Credit issued for the account of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries and any drawings thereunder; provided that after giving effect to any L/C Credit Extension with respect to any Letter of Credit, (w) the aggregate principal Dollar
Amount (determined as of the most recent Determination Date) of Revolving Obligations outstanding shall not exceed the Aggregate Revolving Committed Amount, (x) the aggregate principal Dollar Amount (determined as of the most recent Determination
Date) of each Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of Revolving Obligations outstanding at any time shall not exceed such Lender’s Revolving Committed Amount, (y) the aggregate principal Dollar Amount (determined as of the most recent
Determination Date) of Revolving Obligations in Available Foreign Currencies outstanding shall not exceed the Foreign Currencies Committed Amount and (z) the aggregate principal Dollar Amount (determined as of the most recent Determination Date) of
L/C Obligations outstanding shall not exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit. Each request by the Borrower for the issuance or amendment of a Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be a representation by the Borrower that the L/C Credit Extension so
requested complies with the conditions set forth in the proviso to the preceding sentence. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower’s ability to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving,
and accordingly the Borrower may, during the foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit that have expired or that have been drawn upon and reimbursed. 
  
 (ii) The L/C Issuer shall not issue any Letter of Credit if: 
  
 (A) subject to Section 2.3(b)(iii), the expiry date
of such requested Letter of Credit would occur more than twelve months after the date of issuance or last extension, unless the Required Lenders have approved such expiry date; or 
  
 (B) the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur after the Termination Date, unless (1)
all the Lenders have approved such expiry date 
  

 23 

 or (2) the L/C Obligations relating to such proposed Letter of Credit and all Letter of Credit fees to
accrue while such Letter of Credit is to be outstanding are Cash Collateralized on or before the day that is 15 days prior to the Termination Date then in effect in the manner described in Section 2.3(g); 
  
 (iii) The L/C Issuer shall not be under any obligation to
issue any Letter of Credit if: 
  
 (A) any order,
judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain the L/C Issuer from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any law applicable to the L/C Issuer or any request or directive (whether or not
having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the L/C Issuer shall prohibit, or request that the L/C Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall
impose upon the L/C Issuer with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which the L/C Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Effective Date, or shall impose upon the L/C
Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Effective Date and which the L/C Issuer in good faith deems material to it; 
  
 (B) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of the L/C Issuer applicable to
borrowers generally; 
  
 (C) except as
otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer, such Letter of Credit is in an initial stated amount less than $25,000; or 
  
 (D) a default of any Lender’s obligations to fund under Section 2.3(c) exists or any Lender is at such time a Defaulting
Lender hereunder, unless the L/C Issuer has entered into satisfactory arrangements with the Borrower or such Lender to eliminate the L/C Issuer’s risk with respect to such Lender. 
  
 (iv) The L/C Issuer shall not amend any Letter of Credit if the L/C Issuer would not be permitted at such
time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof. 
  
 (v) The L/C Issuer shall be under no obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if (A) the L/C Issuer would have no obligation at such time
to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (B) the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to such Letter of Credit. 
  
 (vi) The L/C Issuer shall act on behalf of the Lenders with
respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and the L/C Issuer shall have all of the benefits and immunities (A) provided to the Administrative Agent in Article IX with respect to any acts taken or
omissions suffered by the L/C Issuer in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and Issuer 
  

 24 

 Documents pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent”
as used in Article IX included the L/C Issuer with respect to such acts or omissions, and (B) as additionally provided herein with respect to the L/C Issuer. 
  
 (b) Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit; Auto-Extension Letters of Credit; Auto-Reinstatement
Letters of Credit. 
  
 (i) Each Letter of
Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of the Borrower delivered to the L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in the form of a Letter of Credit Application, appropriately completed and signed by a
Responsible Officer of the Borrower. Such Letter of Credit Application must be received by the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 A.M. (Charlotte, North Carolina time) at least five (5) Business Days (or such later date and
time as the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer may agree in a particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be. In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a
Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the L/C Issuer: (A) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (B) the amount and currency
thereof; (C) the expiry date thereof; (D) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (E) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (F) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such
beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; and (G) such other matters as the L/C Issuer may require. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and
detail satisfactory to the L/C Issuer (A) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (B) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (C) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (D) such other matters as the L/C Issuer may
require. Additionally, the Borrower shall furnish to the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent such other documents and information pertaining to such requested Letter of Credit issuance or amendment, including any Issuer Documents, as the L/C
Issuer or the Administrative Agent may require. 
  
 (ii) Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the L/C Issuer will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application
from the Borrower and, if not, the L/C Issuer will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Unless the L/C Issuer has received written notice from any Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Borrower or its Subsidiaries, at least one
Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in Article IV shall not be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the
L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with the L/C Issuer’s usual
and customary business practices. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the L/C Issuer a risk participation in such Letter of
Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage times the amount of such Letter of Credit. 
  

 25 

 (iii) If the Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the L/C
Issuer may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit
must permit the L/C Issuer to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the
“Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the L/C Issuer, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request
to the L/C Issuer for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the L/C Issuer to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an
expiry date not later than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date; provided, however, that the L/C Issuer shall not permit any such extension if (A) the L/C Issuer has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no
obligation, at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of clause (iii) of Section 2.3(a) or otherwise), or (B) it has received notice (which may be
by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is five Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date from the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.2
is not then satisfied, and in each case directing the L/C Issuer not to permit such extension. 
  
 (iv) If the Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the L/C Issuer may, in its sole and absolute discretion,
agree to issue a Letter of Credit that permits the automatic reinstatement of all or a portion of the stated amount thereof after any drawing thereunder (each, an “Auto-Reinstatement Letter of Credit”). Unless otherwise directed by
the L/C Issuer, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the L/C Issuer to permit such reinstatement. Once an Auto-Reinstatement Letter of Credit has been issued, except as provided in the following sentence, the Lenders
shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the L/C Issuer to reinstate all or a portion of the stated amount thereof in accordance with the provisions of such Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such Auto-Reinstatement
Letter of Credit permits the L/C Issuer to decline to reinstate all or any portion of the stated amount thereof after a drawing thereunder by giving notice of such non-reinstatement within a specified number of days after such drawing (the
“Non-Reinstatement Notice Date”), the L/C Issuer shall not permit such reinstatement if it has received a notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is five Business Days before the Non-Reinstatement
Notice Date from the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.2 is not then satisfied (treating such reinstatement as an L/C Credit Extension for purposes of this
clause) and, in each case, directing the L/C Issuer not to permit such reinstatement. 
  

 26 

 (iv) Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of
Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the L/C Issuer will also deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment. 
  
 (c) Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations.

  
 (i) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any
Letter of Credit of any notice of drawing under such Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer shall notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof. In the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in an Foreign Currency, the Borrower shall reimburse
the L/C Issuer in such Foreign Currency, unless (A) the L/C Issuer (at its option) shall have specified in such notice that it will require reimbursement in Dollars, or (B) in the absence of any such requirement for reimbursement in Dollars, the
Borrower shall have notified the L/C Issuer promptly following receipt of the notice of drawing that the Borrower will reimburse the L/C Issuer in Dollars. In the case of any such reimbursement in Dollars of a drawing under a Letter of Credit
denominated in an Foreign Currency, the L/C Issuer shall notify the Borrower of the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of the drawing promptly following the determination thereof. Not later than 11:00 A.M. (local time in the place where such payment is
required to be made pursuant to Section 3.17(b)) (each such date, an “Honor Date”), the Borrower shall reimburse the L/C Issuer through the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing and in the
applicable currency. If the Borrower fails to so reimburse the L/C Issuer by such time, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (expressed in Dollars in the amount of the
Dollar Equivalent thereof in the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in a Foreign Currency) (the “Unreimbursed Amount”), and the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage thereof. In such event, the Borrower
shall be deemed to have requested a Revolving Loan that is a Base Rate Loan to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.1 for the
principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 (other than the delivery of a Notice of Borrowing) and provided that, after giving effect to such Revolving Loan, the aggregate principal Dollar
Amount (determined as of the most recent Determination Date) of Revolving Obligations outstanding at any time shall not exceed the Aggregate Revolving Committed Amount. Any notice given by the L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this
Section 2.3(c)(i) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice. 
  
 (ii) Each Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to
Section 2.3(c)(i) make funds available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer, in Dollars, at the Administrative Agent’s notice address as specified in Section 10.1 for Dollar-denominated payments in an
amount equal to its Revolving Committed Percentage of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 1:00 P.M. (Charlotte, North Carolina time) on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject 
  

 27 

 to the provisions of Section 2.3(c)(iii), each Lender that so makes funds available shall be
deemed to have made a Base Rate Loan to the Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the L/C Issuer in Dollars. 
  

(iii) With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a Revolving Loan because the conditions set forth in
Section 4.2 cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, the Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the L/C Issuer an L/C Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced, which L/C Borrowing shall be due
and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the Default Rate. In such event, each Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.3(c)(ii) shall be deemed
payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.3. 
  
 (iv) Until each Lender funds its Revolving Loan or L/C
Advance pursuant to this Section 2.3(c) to reimburse the L/C Issuer for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of such amount shall be solely for the account of
the L/C Issuer. 
  
 (v) Each Lender’s
obligation to make Revolving Loans or L/C Advances to reimburse the L/C Issuer for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section 2.3(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any
circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the L/C Issuer, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default,
or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans pursuant to this Section 2.3(c) is subject to the
conditions set forth in Section 4.2 (other than delivery by the Borrower of a Notice of Borrowing). No such making of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the L/C Issuer for the amount
of any payment made by the L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein. 
  
 (vi) If any Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer any amount required to be paid by
such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.3(c) by the time specified in Section 2.3(c)(ii), the L/C Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand,
such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the L/C Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in
effect. A certificate of the L/C Issuer submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (vi) shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
  

 28 

 (d) Repayment of Participations. 
  
 (i) At any time after the L/C Issuer has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any
Lender such Lender’s L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with Section 2.3(c), if the Administrative Agent receives for the account of the L/C Issuer any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or interest
thereon (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will distribute to such Lender its Revolving Commitment Percentage thereof
(appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s L/C Advance was outstanding) in Dollars and in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent. 
  
 (ii) If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for
the account of the L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.3(c)(i) is required to be returned under any of the circumstances described in Section 3.16 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the L/C Issuer in its discretion),
each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer its Revolving Commitment Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is
returned by such Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder
and the termination of this Credit Agreement. 
  
 (e)
Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the L/C Issuer for each drawing under each Letter of Credit and to repay each L/C Borrowing shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in
accordance with the terms of this Credit Agreement under all circumstances, including the following: 
  
 (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document; 
  
 (ii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff,
defense or other right that the Borrower or any Subsidiary may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the L/C Issuer or
any other Person, whether in connection with this Credit Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction; 
  
 (iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document
presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document
required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit; 
  
 (iv) any payment by the L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such 
  

 29 

 Letter of Credit; or any payment made by the L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit to any Person
purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising
in connection with any proceeding under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law; 
  
 (v) any adverse change in the relevant exchange rates or in the availability of the relevant Foreign Currency to the Borrower or any
Subsidiary or in the relevant currency markets generally; or 
  
 (vi) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the
Borrower or any Subsidiary. 
  
 The Borrower shall promptly
examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with the Borrower’s instructions or other irregularity, the Borrower will immediately notify the L/C
Issuer. The Borrower shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the L/C Issuer and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid. 
  
 (f) Role of L/C Issuer. Each Lender and the Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the
L/C Issuer shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by such Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document
or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent or any of their Affiliates, or any of the partners, directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors of the L/C Issuer, the
Administrative Agent or any of their Affiliates, nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of the L/C Issuer shall be liable to any Lender for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the
Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to
any Letter of Credit or Issuer Document. The Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not
intended to, and shall not, preclude the Borrower’s pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. None of the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent or any of their
Affiliates, or any of the partners, directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors of the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent or any of their Affiliates, nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of the L/C Issuer shall be liable or
responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (v) of Section 2.3(e); provided, however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower may have a claim against the
L/C Issuer, and the L/C Issuer may be liable to the Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the Borrower which the Borrower proves were caused by the L/C
Issuer’s willful misconduct or gross negligence or the L/C Issuer’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the

  

 30 

 terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit unless the L/C Issuer is prevented or prohibited from so paying as a result of
any order or directive of any court or other Governmental Authority. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, (x) the L/C Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further
investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, provided, however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower may have a claim against the L/C Issuer, and the L/C Issuer may be
liable to the Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the Borrower which the Borrower proves were caused by the L/C Issuer’s willful misconduct or gross
negligence, and (y) the L/C Issuer shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof,
in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason. 
  
 (g) Cash Collateral. Upon the request of the Administrative Agent, (i) if the L/C Issuer has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in an L/C
Borrowing, or (ii) if, as of the Termination Date, any L/C Obligation for any reason remains outstanding, the Borrower shall, in each case, immediately Cash Collateralize the then outstanding amount of all L/C Obligations. Section 8.2(c) sets
forth certain additional requirements to deliver Cash Collateral hereunder. For purposes of this Section 2.3 and Section 8.2(c), “Cash Collateralize” means to pledge and deposit with or deliver to the Administrative
Agent, for the benefit of the L/C Issuer and the Lenders, as collateral for the L/C Obligations, cash or deposit account balances pursuant to documentation in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer (which
documents are hereby consented to by the Lenders). The Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the L/C Issuer and the Lenders, a security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein and all
proceeds of the foregoing. Derivatives of such term have corresponding meanings. Cash Collateral shall be maintained in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts at Bank of America. 
  
 (h) Applicability of ISP and UCP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the L/C Issuer and the Borrower when a Letter
of Credit is issued, (i) the rules of the ISP shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit, and (ii) the rules of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, as most recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce at the
time of issuance shall apply to each commercial Letter of Credit. 
  
 (i) Conflict with Issuer Documents. In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any Issuer Document, the terms hereof shall control. 
  
 (j) Letters of Credit Issued for Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding
hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Subsidiary, the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the L/C Issuer hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that
the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of the Borrower, and that the Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Subsidiaries.

 ARTICLE III 
  
 OTHER PROVISIONS RELATING TO CREDIT FACILITIES 
  
 3.1 Default Rate. 
  
 Upon the occurrence, and during the continuance, of an Event of Default, any principal of and, to the extent permitted by law, interest on the Loans and
any other amounts then due and owing hereunder or under the other Credit Documents shall, at the discretion of the Required Lenders or the Administrative Agent, bear interest, payable on demand, at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times
equal to the Default Rate. 
  
 3.2 Extension and
Conversion. 
  
 The Borrower shall have the option, on
any Business Day, to extend existing Loans into a subsequent permissible Interest Period or to convert Loans into Loans of another interest rate type; provided, however, that (a) except as provided in Sections 3.8, 3.9
and 3.11, LIBOR Loans may be converted into Base Rate Loans only on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (b) any LIBOR loan may be extended, and any Base Rate Loan may be converted to a LIBOR Loan only if the conditions in
Section 4.2 have been satisfied, (c) Loans extended as, or converted into, LIBOR Loans shall be subject to the terms of the definition of “Interest Period” set forth in Section 1.1 and shall be in such minimum amounts
as provided in Section 2.1(b)(ii), and (d) any request for extension of or conversion to a LIBOR Loan which shall fail to specify an Interest Period shall be deemed to be a request for an Interest Period of one month. Each such extension or
conversion shall be effected by the Borrower by giving a Notice of Extension/Conversion (or telephone notice promptly confirmed in writing) to the Administrative Agent prior to 11:00 A.M. (Charlotte, North Carolina time) on the Business Day of, in
the case of the conversion of a LIBOR Loan into a Base Rate Loan, and on the third Business Day prior to, in the case of the extension of a LIBOR Loan as, or conversion of a Base Rate Loan into, a LIBOR Loan, the date of the proposed extension or
conversion, specifying (A) the date of the proposed extension or conversion, (B) the Loans to be so extended or converted, (C) the types of Loans into which such Loans are to be converted and, if appropriate, (D) the applicable Interest Periods with
respect thereto. Each request for extension or conversion shall be irrevocable and shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrower of the matters specified in subsections (a) through (d) of Section 4.2. In the
event the Borrower fails to request extension of or conversion to any LIBOR Loan in accordance with this Section, or any such conversion or extension is not permitted or required by this Section, then (i) in the case of a LIBOR Loan denominated in
Dollars, such LIBOR Loan shall be continued as a LIBOR Loan denominated in Dollars at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto for an Interest Period of one month, and (ii) in the case of LIBOR Loans in an Available Foreign Currency, such
LIBOR Loan shall be automatically continued as a LIBOR Loan in the same Available Foreign Currency, for an Interest Period of one month. The Administrative Agent shall give each Lender notice as promptly as practicable of any such proposed extension
or conversion affecting any Loan. 
  

 32 

 3.3 Prepayments. 
  
 (a) Voluntary Prepayments. Loans may be repaid in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that
(i) LIBOR Loans and Competitive Loans may be prepaid only upon three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, and Base Rate Loans may be prepaid only upon at least one (1) Business Day’s prior written notice to
the Administrative Agent, (ii) prepayments of LIBOR Loans must be accompanied by payment of any amounts owing under Section 3.14, and (iii) partial prepayments shall be in minimum principal Dollar Amounts of $5,000,000, in the case of LIBOR
Loans, or $1,000,000, in the case of Base Rate Loans, and in integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. 
  
 (b) Mandatory Prepayments. If at any time, (i) the aggregate principal Dollar Amount (determined as of the most recent Determination Date) of
Revolving Obligations shall exceed the Aggregate Revolving Committed Amount, (ii) the aggregate principal Dollar Amount (determined as of the most recent Determination Date) of Revolving Obligations in Available Foreign Currencies shall exceed the
Foreign Currencies Committed Amount or (iii) the aggregate principal Dollar Amount (determined as of the most recent Determination Date) of Competitive Loans shall exceed the Competitive Loan Maximum Amount, the Borrower shall immediately make
payment on the Loans and Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess amount. 
  
 (c) Application of Mandatory Repayments. Mandatory prepayments made pursuant to Section 3.3(b) shall be applied first to Revolving Loans
which are Base Rate Loans, then to Revolving Loans which are LIBOR Loans in direct order of Interest Period maturities, then (after all Revolving Loans have been repaid) to Competitive Loans in direct order of Interest Period maturities and then
(after all Revolving Loans and all Competitive Loans have been repaid) to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations. All mandatory prepayments made pursuant to Section 3.3(b) shall be subject to Section 3.14 and be accompanied by interest
on the principal amount prepaid through the date of prepayment. Amounts prepaid hereunder may be reborrowed in accordance with the provisions hereof. 
  
 3.4 Termination and Reduction of the Revolving Commitment. 
  
 (a) Voluntary Reductions. The Revolving Commitments may be terminated or permanently reduced by the Borrower in whole
or in part upon three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, provided that (i) after giving effect to any voluntary reduction, the aggregate principal Dollar Amount (determined as of the most recent
Determination Date) of Loans outstanding shall not exceed the Aggregate Revolving Committed Amount, as reduced, and (ii) partial reductions shall be in minimum principal Dollar Amounts of $5,000,000, and in integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess
thereof. 
  
 (b) Mandatory Reduction. The Revolving
Commitments hereunder shall terminate on the Termination Date. 
  
 3.5 Fees. 
  
 (a) Facility Fee. In
consideration of the Revolving Commitments hereunder, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of each Lender in 
  

 33 

 accordance with its Applicable Rate a facility fee (the “Facility Fee”) equal to the Applicable Rate
multiplied by the average daily Aggregate Revolving Committed Amount in effect from time to time, regardless of usage. The Facility Fee shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the 15th day following the last day of each calendar quarter for the
immediately preceding quarter (or portion thereof), calculated on an actual/360-day basis, beginning with the first such date to occur after the Effective Date and ending on the Termination Date. The Facility Fee shall be calculated quarterly in
arrears, and if there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect.

  
 (b) Competitive Bid Request Fee. The Borrower agrees to
pay to the Administrative Agent such fees (the “Competitive Bid Request Fee”) in connection with Competitive Bid Requests hereunder as may be agreed upon between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. Unless otherwise agreed,
the Competitive Bid Request Fee shall be paid quarterly in arrears. 
  
 (c) Other Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent and the Syndication Agent, for their own respective accounts, fees in the amounts and at the times referred to in the Fee Letter. 
  
 (d) Utilization Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative
Agent for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Revolving Commitment a utilization fee (the “Utilization Fee”) equal to the Applicable Rate multiplied by the average daily LIBOR Loans outstanding under this Credit
Agreement when the Average Outstanding Revolving Obligations for any Utilization Period equals or exceeds 50% of the average of the daily Aggregate Revolving Committed Amount for such Utilization Period. The Utilization Fee shall be due and payable
quarterly in arrears on the 15th day following the last day of each calendar quarter for the immediately preceding quarter (or portion thereof), calculated on an actual/360-day basis, beginning with the first such date to occur after the Effective
Date. The Utilization Fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears and if there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate for each period during which such
Applicable Rate was in effect. 
  
 (e) Letter of Credit
Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Revolving Commitment Percentage, in Dollars, a Letter of Credit fee (i) for each commercial Letter of Credit equal to the Applicable
Rate for Commercial Letter of Credit Fees times the Dollar Equivalent of the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit and (ii) for each standby Letter of Credit equal to the Applicable Rate for Standby Letter of Credit
Fees times the Dollar Equivalent of the daily maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit (the Letter of Credit fees referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) above, collectively, the “Letter of Credit Fees”).
For purposes of computing the Dollar Equivalent of the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.7. Letter of Credit Fees shall be (i)
computed on a quarterly basis in arrears and (ii) due and payable on the 15th day following the last day of each
calendar quarter for the immediately preceding quarter (or portion thereof), commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, and on the Termination Date. If there is any change in the 
  

 34 

 Applicable Rate for LIBOR Loans during any quarter, the daily amount available to be drawn under each standby Letter of
Credit shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate for LIBOR Loans separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate for LIBOR Loans was in effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon
the request of the Required Lenders, while any Event of Default exists, all Letter of Credit Fees shall accrue at the Default Rate. 
  
 (f) Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to L/C Issuer. The Borrower shall pay directly to the L/C Issuer for its own
account, in Dollars, a fronting fee (i) with respect to each commercial Letter of Credit, at the rate of 0.125% per annum, computed on the amount of such Letter of Credit, and payable upon the issuance thereof, (ii) with respect to any amendment of
a commercial Letter of Credit increasing the amount of such Letter of Credit, at a rate separately agreed between the Borrower and the L/C Issuer, computed on the amount of such increase, and payable upon the effectiveness of such amendment, and
(iii) with respect to each standby Letter of Credit, at the rate of 0.125% per annum computed on the Dollar Equivalent of the actual daily maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit (whether or not such maximum amount is then
in effect under such Letter of Credit) and on a quarterly basis in arrears. Such fronting fee shall be due and payable on the 15th day following the last day of each calendar quarter for the immediately preceding quarter (or portion thereof), commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit
Expiration Date, and thereafter on demand. For purposes of computing the Dollar Equivalent of the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section
1.7. In addition, the Borrower shall pay directly to the L/C Issuer for its own account the customary issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of the L/C Issuer relating to letters of
credit as from time to time in effect. Such customary fees and standard costs and charges are due and payable on demand and are nonrefundable. 
  
 3.6 LIBOR Reserve Compensation. 
  
 For so long as any Lender maintains reserves against “eurocurrency liabilities” (or any other category of liabilities which includes deposits by
reference to which the interest rate on any LIBOR Loans is determined), and, as a result, the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any of its LIBOR Loans is increased, then such Lender may require the Borrower to pay, contemporaneously with
each payment of interest on such LIBOR Loans of such Lender, additional interest at a rate per annum up to but not exceeding the excess of (i) (A) the applicable LIBOR Rate divided by (B) one minus the LIBOR Reserve Percentage over
(ii) the applicable LIBOR Rate. Any Lender wishing to require payment of such additional interest (x) shall so notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, in which case such additional interest on the LIBOR Loans of such Lender shall be
payable to such Lender at the place indicated in such notice with respect to each Interest Period commencing at least three (3) Business Days after the giving of such notice and (y) shall furnish to the Borrower at least five (5) Business Days prior
to each date on which interest is payable on the LIBOR Loans a certificate setting forth the amount to which such Lender is then entitled under this Section 3.6 (which shall be consistent with such Lender’s good faith estimate of the
level at which the related reserves are maintained by it). Each such certificate shall be accompanied by such information as the Borrower may reasonably request as to the computation set forth therein. 
  

 35 

 3.7 Capital Requirements. 
  
 If any Lender or the L/C Issuer has determined, after the date hereof, that the adoption or the becoming effective of, or
any change in, or any change by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof in the interpretation or administration of, any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding
capital adequacy, or compliance by such Lender or the L/C Issuer with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect
of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s capital or assets as a consequence of its commitments or obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or the L/C Issuer could have achieved but for such
adoption, effectiveness, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s policies with respect to capital adequacy), then, upon notice from such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, to the
Borrower, the Borrower shall be obligated to pay to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, for such reduction. Each determination by
any such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, of amounts owing under this Section shall, absent manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the parties hereto. Such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, will, upon request, provide
a certificate in reasonable detail as to the amount of such increased cost or reduction in amount received and method of calculation. 
  
 3.8 Unavailability. 
  
 In the event, and on each occasion, that on the day two (2) Business Days prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a LIBOR Loan of any amount,
Interest Period or currency, the Administrative Agent shall have determined or shall have been notified by the Required Lenders (a) that deposits in the relevant amount in the relevant currency and for the relevant Interest Period are not available
in the relevant market to any Lender, or that reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR Rate for any such Loan, or (b) that the rates at which such deposits are being offered will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to any
Lender of making or maintaining its LIBOR Loan during such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly give written or telecopy notice of such determination to the Borrower and the Lenders. In the event of any such determination, until
the Administrative Agent shall have advised the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, any request by the Borrower for a LIBOR Loan of the affected amount, Interest Period or currency, or a
conversion to or continuation of a LIBOR Loan of the affected amount, Interest Period or currency shall be deemed rescinded. If the Administrative Agent at any time determines that: (i) the euro has ceased to be utilized as the basic accounting unit
of the European Community; (ii) for reasons affecting the market in euros generally, euros are not freely traded between banks internationally; or (iii) it is illegal, impossible or impracticable for payments to be made hereunder in euro, then the
Administrative Agent may, in its discretion declare (such declaration to be binding on all the parties hereto) that any payment made or to be 
  

 36 

 made thereafter which, but for this provision, would have been payable in the euro shall be made in a component currency
of the euro or Dollars (as selected by the Administrative Agent (the “Selected Currency”) and the amount to be so paid shall be calculated on the basis of the equivalent of the euro in the Selected Currency). Each determination by
the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
  
 3.9 Illegality. 
  
 (a) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if (i) the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof occurring after the Effective Date shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make
or maintain LIBOR Loans as contemplated by this Credit Agreement, or (ii) there shall have occurred any change in national or international financial, political or economic conditions (including the imposition of or any change in exchange controls)
or currency exchange rates which would make it unlawful or impossible for any Lender or the L/C Issuer to make Extensions of Credit denominated in any Available Foreign Currency to the Borrower, as contemplated by this Credit Agreement, then such
Lender, together with Lenders giving notice under Sections 3.8 and 3.10, shall be an “Affected Lender” and by written notice to the Borrower and to the Administrative Agent: 
  
 (A) such Lender may declare that LIBOR Loans (or, in the
case of a circumstance described in clause (ii) above, the L/C Issuer may declare that Letters of Credit) in the affected currency or currencies will not thereafter (for the duration of such unlawfulness or impossibility) be made by such
Lender hereunder, whereupon (x) any request for a LIBOR Loan in the affected currency or currencies shall, as to such Lender only (1) if such Loan is not a Foreign Currency Loan, be deemed a request for a Base Rate Loan (unless it should also be
illegal for the Affected Lender to provide a Base Rate Loan, in which case such Loan shall bear interest at a commensurate rate to be agreed upon by the Administrative Agent and the Affected Lender, and so long as no Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, the Borrower), unless such declaration shall be subsequently withdrawn and (2) if such Loan is a Foreign Currency Loan, be deemed to have been withdrawn, unless such declaration shall be subsequently withdrawn, and (y)
any request for a Letter of Credit in the affected currency or currencies shall be deemed to have been withdrawn, unless such declaration shall be subsequently withdrawn; and 
  
 (B) such Lender may require that all outstanding LIBOR Loans or Foreign Currency Loans (in the affected
currency or currencies), as the case may be, made by it be (x) if such Loans are not Foreign Currency Loans, converted to Base Rate Loans, in which event all such LIBOR Loans shall be automatically converted to Base Rate Loans as of the effective
date of such notice as provided in paragraph (b) below or (y) if such Loans are Foreign Currency Loans, repaid immediately, in which event all such Foreign Currency Loans (in the affected currency or currencies) shall be required to be repaid
in full by the Borrower as of the effective date of such notice as provided in paragraph (b) below. 
  

 37 

 In the event any Lender shall exercise its rights under clauses (i) or (ii) above with respect to any Loans
which are not Foreign Currency Loans, all payments and prepayments of principal which would otherwise have been applied to repay the LIBOR Loans that would have been made by such Lender or the converted LIBOR Loans of such Lender shall instead be
applied to repay the Base Rate Loans made by such Lender in lieu of, or resulting from the conversion, of such LIBOR Loans. 
  
 (b) For purposes of this Section 3.9, a notice to the Borrower by any Lender shall be effective as to each such Loan, if lawful, on the last day of
the Interest Period currently applicable to such Loan; in all other cases such notice shall be effective on the date of receipt by the Borrower. 
  
 3.10 Requirements of Law. 
  
 If, after the date hereof, the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof applicable to any
Lender or the L/C Issuer, or compliance by any Lender or the L/C Issuer with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority, in each case made subsequent to the Effective Date
(or, if later, the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender or the date on which the L/C Issuer becomes the L/C Issuer): 
  
 (a) shall subject such Lender or the L/C Issuer to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to any LIBOR Loans or Letters of Credit
made by it or its obligation to make LIBOR Loans or L/C Credit Extensions, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender or the L/C Issuer in respect thereof (except for (i) Non-Excluded Taxes covered by Section 3.13 (including
Non-Excluded Taxes imposed solely by reason of any failure of such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, to comply with its obligations under Section 3.13(b)) and (ii) changes in taxes measured by or imposed upon the overall net
income, or franchise tax (imposed in lieu of such net income tax), of such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, or its applicable Lending Office, branch, or any affiliate thereof); 
  
 (b) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve,
special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender
(except (x) any reserve requirement contemplated by Section 3.6 and (y) the requirements of the Bank of England and the Financial Services Authority of the European Central Bank reflected in the Mandatory Cost, other than as set forth below)
or the L/C Issuer which is not otherwise included in the determination of the LIBOR Rate hereunder; 
  
 (c) shall result in the Mandatory Cost, as calculated hereunder, not representing the cost to any Lender of complying with the
requirements of the Bank of England and/or the Financial Services Authority or the European Central Bank in relation to its making, funding or maintaining LIBOR Loans; or 
  

 38 

 (d) shall impose on such Lender or the L/C Issuer any other condition (excluding any tax
of any kind whatsoever); 
  
 and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase
the cost to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, by an amount which such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, deems to be material, of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining LIBOR Loans or making L/C Credit
Extensions or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, upon notice to the Borrower from such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, through the Administrative Agent, in accordance herewith, the
Borrower shall be obligated to promptly pay such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, for such increased cost or reduced
amount receivable, provided that, in any such case, the Borrower may elect to convert the LIBOR Loans made by such Lender hereunder to Base Rate Loans by giving the Administrative Agent at least one Business Day’s notice of such
election, in which case the Borrower shall promptly pay to such Lender, upon demand, without duplication, such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 3.13. If any Lender or the L/C Issuer becomes entitled to claim any
additional amounts pursuant to this subsection, it shall provide prompt notice thereof to the Borrower, through the Administrative Agent, certifying (x) that one of the events described in this paragraph (a) has occurred and describing in
reasonable detail the nature of such event, (y) as to the increased cost or reduced amount resulting from such event and (z) as to the additional amount demanded by such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, and a reasonably detailed
explanation of the calculation thereof. Such a certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this subsection submitted by such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be,, through the Administrative Agent, to the Borrower shall be
conclusive and binding on the parties hereto in the absence of manifest error. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Credit Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
  
 3.11 Inability To Determine Interest Rate. 
  
 If prior to the first day of any Interest Period, the Administrative Agent
shall have reasonably determined that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall give telecopy or
telephonic notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter. If such notice is given (a) any Foreign Currency Loans requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made, at the sole option of
the Borrower, in Dollars as Base Rate Loans or such request shall be cancelled, (b) any affected LIBOR Loans requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made, at the sole option of the Borrower, in Dollars as Base Rate
Loans and (c) any affected Loans that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to or continued as LIBOR Loans shall be converted to or continued, at the sole option of the Borrower, in Dollars as Base Rate Loans. Until
such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent, no further LIBOR Loans in the affected currency shall be made or continued as such, nor shall the Borrower have the right to convert Base Rate Loans to such affected LIBOR Loans.

 3.12 Replacement of Lenders. 
  
 If any Lender requests compensation pursuant to Section 3.6, 3.7, 3.10 or 3.13, or any
Lender’s obligation to make or continue, or to convert Loans of any type into the other type of Loan, shall be suspended pursuant to Section 3.8, 3.9 or 3.11 (any such Lender requesting such compensation, or whose
obligations are so suspended, being herein called a “Requesting Lender”), the Borrower, upon three Business Days’ notice, may require that such Requesting Lender transfer all of its right, title and interest under this Credit
Agreement and such Requesting Lender’s Revolving Note to any bank or other financial institution (a “Proposed Lender”) identified by the Borrowers that is reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (i) if such Proposed
Lender agrees to assume all of the obligations of such Requesting Lender hereunder, and to purchase all of such Requesting Lender’s Loans hereunder for consideration equal to the aggregate outstanding principal amount of such Requesting
Lender’s Loans, together with interest accrued thereon to the date of such purchase, and satisfactory arrangements are made for payment to such Requesting Lender of all other amounts payable hereunder to such Requesting Lender on or prior to
the date of such transfer (including any fees accrued hereunder and any amounts that would be payable under Article III as if all of such Requesting Lender’s Loans were being prepaid in full on such date) and (ii) if such Requesting
Lender has requested compensation pursuant to Section 3.6, 3.7, 3.10 or 3.13, such Proposed Lender’s aggregate requested compensation, if any, pursuant to said Sections, or with respect to such Requesting
Lender’s Loans is lower than that of the Requesting Lender. Subject to the provisions of Section 10.3, such Proposed Lender shall be a “Lender” for all purposes hereunder. Without prejudice to the survival of any other
agreement of the Borrower hereunder the agreements of the Borrower contained in Sections 3.6, 3.7, 3.10, 3.13 and 10.5 (without duplication of any payments made to such Requesting Lender by the Borrower or the
Proposed Lender) shall survive for the benefit of such Requesting Lender under this Section 3.12 with respect to the time prior to such replacement. 
  
 3.13 Taxes. 
  
 (a) Except as provided below in this subsection, all payments made by the Borrower under this Credit Agreement and any Notes shall be made free and clear
of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future income, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed
by any court, or governmental body, agency or other official, excluding (A) taxes measured by or imposed upon the overall net income of any Lender or the L/C Issuer or its applicable Lending Office, or any branch or affiliate thereof, and (B)
all franchise taxes, branch taxes, taxes on doing business or taxes on the overall capital or net worth of any Lender or the L/C Issuer or its applicable Lending Office, or any branch or affiliate thereof, in each case imposed in lieu of net income
taxes, imposed: (i) by the jurisdiction under the laws of which such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, or its applicable Lending Office, branch or affiliate is organized or is located, or in which its principal executive office is
located, or any nation within which such jurisdiction is located or any political subdivision thereof; or (ii) by reason of any present or former connection between the jurisdiction imposing such tax and such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case
may be, or its applicable Lending Office, branch or affiliate other than a connection arising solely from such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as 
  

 40 

 the case may be, having executed, delivered or performed its obligations, or received payment under or enforced, this
Credit Agreement or any Notes. If any such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings (“Non-Excluded Taxes”) are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to the Administrative
Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer hereunder or under any Notes, (A) the amounts so payable to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the L/C Issuer shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or
the L/C Issuer (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Credit Agreement and any Notes, provided, however, that the Borrower shall
be entitled to deduct and withhold any Non-Excluded Taxes and shall not be required to increase any such amounts payable to any Lender or the L/C Issuer that is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof if
such Lender or the L/C Issuer fails to comply with the requirements of paragraph (b) of this subsection whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes are payable by the Borrower, and (B) as promptly as possible thereafter the Borrower shall send to the
Administrative Agent for its own account, for the account of such Lender or for the account of the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt received by the Borrower showing payment thereof. If the Borrower
fails to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Administrative Agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the
Lenders and the L/C Issuer for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer as a result of any such failure. The agreements in this subsection shall survive the
termination of this Credit Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
  
 (b) Each Lender and L/C Issuer that is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof shall: 
  
 (i) (A) on or before the date of any payment by the Borrower
under this Credit Agreement or Notes to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two (2) duly completed copies of applicable United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI,
or successor applicable form, as the case may be, certifying that it is entitled to receive payments under this Credit Agreement and any Notes without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes; 
  
 (B) deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two
(2) further copies of any such form or certification on or before the date that any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete and after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form previously delivered by it to
the Borrower; and 
  
 (C) obtain such extensions
of time for filing and complete such forms or certifications as may reasonably be requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent; or 
  

 41 

 (ii) in the case of any such Lender or L/C Issuer that is not a “bank” within
the meaning of Section 881 (c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code, (i) represent to the Borrower (for the benefit of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent) that it is not a bank within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue
Code, (ii) agree to furnish to the Borrower on or before the date of any payment by the Borrower, with a copy to the Administrative Agent two (2) accurate: and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, or successor
applicable form certifying to such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s legal entitlement at the date of such certificate to an exemption from U.S. withholding tax under the provisions of Section 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code with respect to
payments to be made under this Credit Agreement and any Notes (and to deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two (2) further copies of such form on or before the date it expires or becomes obsolete and after the occurrence of any event
requiring a change in the most recently provided form and, if necessary, obtain any extensions of time reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent for filing and completing such forms), and (iii) agree, to the extent legally
entitled to do so, upon reasonable request by the Borrower, to provide to the Borrower (for the benefit of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent) such other forms as may be reasonably required in order to establish the legal entitlement of such
Lender or L/C Issuer to an exemption from withholding with respect to payments under this Credit Agreement and any Notes; 
  
 unless in any such case any change in treaty, law or regulation has occurred after the date such Person becomes a Lender or L/C Issuer hereunder which renders all such
forms inapplicable or which would prevent such Lender or L/C Issuer from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it and such Lender so advises the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. Each Person that shall become a Lender, a
participant of a Lender pursuant to Section 10.3 or the L/C Issuer shall, upon the effectiveness of the related transfer, be required to provide all of the forms, certifications and statements required pursuant to this subsection,
provided that in the case of a participant of a Lender the obligations of such participant of a Lender pursuant to this subsection (b) shall be determined as if the participant of a Lender were a Lender except that such participant of
a Lender shall furnish all such required forms, certifications and statements to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased. 
  
 3.14 Indemnity. 
  
 The Borrower shall pay to each Lender and hold each Lender harmless from any loss or expense which such Lender may sustain or incur (excluding loss of
profit and other than through such Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct) as a consequence of (a) default by the Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of LIBOR Loans and Competitive Loans after the
Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Credit Agreement, (b) default by the Borrower in making any prepayment of a LIBOR Loan or a Competitive Loan after the Borrower has given a notice thereof in
accordance with the provisions of this Credit Agreement or (c) the making of a prepayment of LIBOR Loans or Competitive Loans on a day which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. With respect to LIBOR Loans and Competitive
Loans, such payment may include an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have 
  

 42 

 accrued on the amount so prepaid, or not so borrowed, converted or continued, for the period from the date of such
prepayment or of such failure to borrow, convert or continue to the last day of the applicable Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the Interest Period that would have commenced on the date of such failure)
in each case at the applicable rate of interest for such Loans provided for herein (excluding, however, the Applicable Rate included therein, if any) over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) which would have accrued
to such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank LIBOR market (but excluding loss of profits). The covenants of the Borrower set forth in this Section 3.14 shall
survive the termination of this Credit Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
  
 3.15 Pro Rata Treatment. 
  
 Except to the extent otherwise provided herein: 
  
 (a) Loans. Each Revolving Loan, each payment or prepayment of principal of any Revolving Loan, each payment of interest on the Revolving Loans,
each payment of Facility Fees, each payment of Utilization Fees, each payment of the Letter of Credit Fees, each reduction of the Revolving Committed Amount and each conversion or extension of any Revolving Loan, shall be allocated pro rata among
the Lenders in accordance with the respective principal amounts of their outstanding Revolving Loans and Participation Interests. With respect to Competitive Loans, if the Borrower fails to specify the particular Competitive Loan or Loans as to
which any payment or other amount should be applied and it is not otherwise clear as to the particular Competitive Loan or Loans to which such payment or other amounts relate, or any such payment or other amount is to be applied to Competitive Loans
without regard to any such direction by the Borrower, then each payment or prepayment of principal on Competitive Loans and each payment of interest or other amount on or in respect of Competitive Loans, shall be allocated to (i) the Competitive
Loan bearing the highest interest rate, (ii) if two or more Competitive Loans each bear the same interest rate, which is the highest interest rate among all Competitive Loans then outstanding, then pro rata among such Competitive Loans (iii) should
such prepayment extinguish such Competitive Loans, then any remaining prepayment shall be applied to each of the remaining Competitive Loans with the highest interest rate and (iv) any remaining payment or prepayment shall be allocated pro rata
among the relevant Competitive Loan Lenders in accordance with the then outstanding amounts of their respective Competitive Loans. 
  
 (b) Advances. 
  
 (i) Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent. No Lender shall be responsible for the failure or delay by any other Lender in its
obligation to make its ratable share of a borrowing hereunder; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender to fulfill its obligations hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder. Unless the
Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender prior to a borrowing that such Lender will not make the amount that would constitute its ratable share of such borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative
Agent may assume 
  

 43 

 that such Lender is making such amount available to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may, in
reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within the time period specified therefor hereunder, such Lender shall pay to the
Administrative Agent, on demand, such amount with interest thereon at a rate equal to the Overnight Rate for a period of two (2) Business Days, and thereafter at the Base Rate, for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available
to the Administrative Agent. If such Lender does not pay such amounts to the Administrative Agent forthwith upon demand, the Administrative Agent may notify the Borrower and request the Borrower to pay such amount to the Administrative Agent with
interest at the Base Rate not later than 4:00 P.M. (Charlotte, North Carolina time) on the following Business Day. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this subsection shall be
conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Nothing in the preceding shall act or be construed as a waiver of any claims or right of action that the Borrower may have against any Lender that defaults on the payment to the Administrative Agent
thereby causing the Borrower to repay the Administrative Agent such amount advanced. 
  
 (ii) Payments by Borrowers; Presumptions by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative
Agent for the account of the Lenders or the L/C Issuer hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon
such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, severally agrees to
repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is
distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Overnight Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

  
 A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender, the L/C
Issuer or the Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. 
  
 3.16 Sharing of Payments. 
  
 The Lenders agree among themselves that, in the event that any Lender shall obtain payment in respect of any Loan or any other obligation owing to such
Lender under this Credit Agreement through the exercise of a right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim, or pursuant to a secured claim under Section 506 of Title 11 of the United States Code or other security or interest arising from, or
in lieu of, such secured claim, received by such Lender under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law or otherwise, or by any other means, in excess of its pro rata share of such payment as provided for in this Credit Agreement,
such Lender shall promptly purchase from the other Lenders a participation in such Loans and other obligations in such amounts, and make such other adjustments from time to time, as shall be equitable to the end that all Lenders share such payment
in accordance with their respective 
  

 44 

 ratable shares as provided for in this Credit Agreement. The Lenders further agree among themselves that if payment to a
Lender obtained by such Lender through the exercise of a right of setoff, banker’s lien, counterclaim or other event as aforesaid shall be rescinded or must otherwise be restored, each Lender which shall have shared the benefit of such payment
shall, by repurchase of a participation theretofore sold, return its share of that benefit (together with its share of any accrued interest payable with respect thereto) to each Lender whose payment shall have been rescinded or otherwise restored.
The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing such a participation may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all rights of payment, including setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim, with respect to such participation as fully as
if such Lender were a holder of such Loan or other obligation in the amount of such participation. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Credit Agreement, if any Lender or the Administrative Agent shall fail to remit to the Administrative
Agent or any other Lender an amount payable by such Lender or the Administrative Agent to the Administrative Agent or such other Lender pursuant to this Credit Agreement on the date when such amount is due, such payments shall be made together with
interest thereon for each date from the date such amount is due until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent or such other Lender at a rate per annum equal to the Overnight Rate. If under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or
other similar law, any Lender receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff to which this Section 3.16 applies, such Lender shall, to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the
rights of the Lenders under this Section 3.16 to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim. 
  
 3.17 Payments, Computations, Etc. 
  
 (a) Each payment on account of an amount due from the Borrower hereunder or under any other Credit Document shall be made by the Borrower to the
Administrative Agent for the pro rata account of the Lenders entitled to receive such payment as provided herein in the currency in which such amount is denominated and in such funds as are customary at the place and time of payment
for the settlement of international payments in such currency. Without limiting the terms of the preceding sentence, accrued interest on any Loans denominated in a Foreign Currency shall be payable in the same Foreign Currency as such Loan. Upon
request, the Administrative Agent will give the Borrower a statement showing the computation used in calculating such amount, which statement shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The obligation of the Borrower to make each payment
on account of such amount in the currency in which such amount is denominated shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender, or any recovery pursuant to any judgment, which is expressed in or converted into any other currency, except to the
extent such tender or recovery shall result in the actual receipt by the Administrative Agent of the full amount in the appropriate currency payable hereunder. The Borrower agrees that its obligation to make each payment on account of such amount in
the currency in which such amount is denominated shall be enforceable as an additional or alternative claim for recovery in such currency of the amount (if any) by which such actual receipt shall fall short of the full amount of such currency
payable hereunder, and shall not be affected by judgment being obtained for such amount. 
  
 (b) Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all payments hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds, without offset, deduction, 
  

 45 

 counterclaim or withholding of any kind, not later than 2:00 P.M. (local time in the place where such payment is required
to be made pursuant to this subsection (b)) on the date when due, to the account specified on Schedule 3.17(b) or at such other place as may be designated by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower in writing. Payments received after
such time shall be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day. In the event that Borrower desires to make any payments hereunder by wire transfer initiated outside of the United States that is originated by any Person other
than the Borrower, the Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent with one Business Day’s prior written notice containing the name, address, telephone and facsimile numbers of the wire transfer originator and the originator’s
relationship to the Borrower. The Borrower shall, at the time it makes any payment under this Credit Agreement, specify to the Administrative Agent the Loans, Fees, interest or other amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder to which such payment is
to be applied (and in the event that it fails so to specify, or if such application would be inconsistent with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the Lenders subject to the terms of Section 3.15(a)).
The Administrative Agent will distribute such payments to such Lenders, if any such payment is received prior to 12:00 Noon (Charlotte, North Carolina time) on a Business Day in like funds as received prior to the end of such Business Day and
otherwise the Administrative Agent will distribute such payment to such Lenders on the next succeeding Business Day. Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be
extended to the next succeeding Business Day (subject to accrual of interest and Fees for the period of such extension), except that in the case of LIBOR Loans, if the extension would cause the payment to be made in the next following calendar
month, then such payment shall instead be made on the next preceding Business Day. Except as expressly provided otherwise herein, all computations of interest and fees shall be made on the basis of actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360
days, except with respect to computation of interest on Base Rate Loans which shall be calculated based on a year of 365 or 366 days, as appropriate. Interest shall accrue from and include the date of borrowing, but exclude the date of payment.

  
 (c) Allocation of Payments After Event of Default.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Credit Agreement to the contrary, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all amounts collected or received by the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or any Lender on
account of the Revolving Obligations or any other amounts outstanding under any of the Credit Documents shall be paid over or delivered as follows: 
  
 FIRST, to the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees) of
the Administrative Agent in connection with enforcing the rights of the Lenders under the Credit Documents; 
  
 SECOND, to payment of any fees owed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of the Credit Documents; 
  
 THIRD, to the payment of all permitted reasonable
out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) of each of the L/C Issuer and the Lenders in connection with enforcing its rights under the Credit Documents with respect to the Extensions of Credit
owing to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as applicable; 
  

 46 

 FOURTH, to the payment of all accrued interest and fees on or in respect of Extensions of
Credit under the Credit Documents; 
  
 FIFTH, to
(a) the payment of the outstanding principal amount of the Loans and L/C Borrowings under the Credit Documents and (b) Cash Collateralize that portion of L/C Obligations comprised of the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit; and 

 
 SIXTH, to all other obligations which shall have become
due and payable under the Credit Documents or otherwise and not repaid pursuant to clauses “FIRST” through “FIFTH” above; and 
  
 SEVENTH, to the payment of the surplus, if any, to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus. 
  
 In carrying out the foregoing, (i) amounts received shall be applied in the numerical order
provided until exhausted prior to application to the next succeeding category; and (ii) each of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer shall receive an amount equal to its pro rata share (based on the proportion that the then outstanding Extensions of
Credit held by such Lender bears to the aggregate then outstanding Extensions of Credit) of amounts available to be applied pursuant to clauses “FOURTH” and “SIXTH” above. 
  
 3.18 Obligation of Lenders to Mitigate. 
  
 Each Lender agrees that, as promptly as practicable after such Lender
becomes aware of the occurrence of an event or the existence of a condition that would cause such Lender to become an Affected Lender or that would entitle such Lender to receive payments under Sections 3.7 or 3.13, it will, to the
extent not inconsistent with any applicable legal or regulatory restrictions, use reasonable efforts (i) to make, issue, fund or maintain the Revolving Commitment of such Lender or the affected Loans of such Lender through another Lending Office of
such Lender, or (ii) take such other measures as such Lender may deem reasonable, if as a result thereof the circumstances which would cause such Lender to be an Affected Lender would cease to exist or the additional amounts which would otherwise be
required to be paid to such Lender pursuant to Sections 3.7 or 3.13 would be reduced and if, as determined by such Lender in its sole discretion, the making, issuing, funding or maintaining of such Revolving Commitment or Loans through
such other Lending Office or in accordance with such other measures, as the case may be, would not otherwise materially adversely affect such Revolving Commitment or Loans or would not be otherwise disadvantageous to the interests of such Lender.

  
 3.19 Evidence of Debt. 
  
 (a) Each Lender shall maintain an account or accounts evidencing each Loan
made by such Lender to the Borrower from time to time, including the amounts and currencies of 
  

 47 

 principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Credit Agreement. Each Lender will
make diligent efforts to maintain the accuracy of its account or accounts and to promptly update its account or accounts from time to time, as necessary. 
  
 (b) The Administrative Agent shall maintain the Register pursuant to Section 10.3(c) hereof, and a subaccount for each Lender, in which Register
and subaccounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the amount, currency, type and Interest Period of each such Loan hereunder, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable to each Lender hereunder and
(iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from or for the account of the Borrower and each Lender’s share thereof. The Administrative Agent will make diligent efforts to maintain the accuracy of the subaccounts
referred to in the preceding sentence and to promptly update such subaccounts from time to time, as necessary. 
  
 3.20 Increase in Revolving Commitments. 
  
 (a) Request for Increase. Provided no Event of Default exists and is continuing and the Borrower has made no voluntary reduction of the Aggregate
Revolving Committed Amount pursuant to Section 3.4, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower may from time to time, request an increase in the Aggregate Revolving Committed Amount by an amount (for all such requests) not
exceeding THREE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS ($300,000,000); provided that (i) any such request for an increase shall be in a minimum amount of $25,000,000, and (ii) the Borrower may make a maximum of five such requests. 
  
 (b) Notification by Administrative Agent; Additional Lenders. The
Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and each Lender of each request made hereunder. To achieve the full amount of a requested increase, and subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer (which approvals shall not
be unreasonably withheld), the Borrower may, at its option, request that the existing Lenders provide for any such increase in the Aggregate Revolving Committed Amount or invite additional banks to become Lenders pursuant to a joinder agreement in
form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and its counsel. To the extent the Borrower seeks any increase from existing Lenders, it shall (in consultation with the Administrative Agent) specify the time period within which each
Lender is requested to respond (which shall in no event be less than ten Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to the Lenders). 
  
 (c) Lender Elections to Increase. Each Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent within such time period whether or not it agrees to increase
its Revolving Commitment and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than, or less than its Revolving Committed Percentage of such requested increase. Any Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to
increase its Revolving Commitment. 
  
 (d) Effective Date and
Allocations. If the Aggregate Revolving Committed Amount is increased in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall determine the effective date (the “Increase Effective Date”) and the final
allocation of such increase. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the final allocation of such increase and the Increase Effective Date. 
  

 48 

 (e) Conditions to Effectiveness of Increase. As a condition precedent to such increase, the
Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate dated as of the Increase Effective Date (in sufficient copies for each Lender) signed by a Responsible Officer (i) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by the Borrower
approving or consenting to such increase, and (ii) certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase, (A) the representations and warranties contained in Article V and the other Credit Documents are true and correct on and as
of the Increase Effective Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct as of such earlier date, and except that for purposes of this Section
3.20, the representations and warranties contained in subsections (a) and (b) of Section 5.1 shall be deemed to refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant to clauses (a) and (b), respectively, of
Section 6.1, and (B) no Default exists. The Borrower shall prepay any Revolving Loans outstanding on the Increase Effective Date to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Revolving Loans ratable with any revised Revolving Committed
Percentages arising from any nonratable increase in the Revolving Commitments under this Section. 
  
 (f) Conflicting Provisions. This Section shall supersede any provisions in Sections 3.16 or 10.6 to the contrary. 
  
 ARTICLE IV

 ARTICLE IX 
  
 AGENCY PROVISIONS 
  
 9.1
Appointment. 
  
 Each Lender and the L/C Issuer hereby
designates and appoints Bank of America as administrative agent of such Lender to act as specified herein and in the other Credit Documents, and each Lender and the L/C Issuer hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent as the Administrative Agent
for such Lender and the L/C Issuer, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated by the terms hereof and
of the other Credit Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Each Lender and the L/C Issuer further directs and authorizes the Administrative Agent to execute releases (or similar agreements) to give effect to
the provisions of this Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere herein and in the other Credit Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except
those expressly set forth herein and therein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender or the L/C Issuer, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Credit Agreement or any
of the other Credit Documents, or shall otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent. The provisions of this Section are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Lenders; the Borrower shall not have any rights
as a third party beneficiary of the provisions hereof. In performing its functions and duties under this Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents, the Administrative Agent shall act solely as Administrative Agent of the Lenders and does not
assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation or relationship of agency or trust with or for the Borrower or any of its affiliates. 
  
 9.2 Delegation of Duties. 
  
 The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties hereunder or under the other Credit Documents by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall
be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. 

 
 9.3 Exculpatory Provisions. 
  
 The Administrative Agent and its officers, directors, employees, agents,
attorneys-in-fact or affiliates shall not be (i) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person in good faith under or in connection herewith or in connection with any of the other Credit Documents (except for its
or such Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct), 
  

 66 

 or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders or the L/C Issuer for any recitals, statements, representations
or warranties made by the Borrower contained herein or in any of the other Credit Documents or in any certificate, report, document, financial statement or other written or oral statement referred to or provided for in, or received by the
Administrative Agent under or in connection herewith or in connection with the other Credit Documents, or enforceability or sufficiency therefor of any of the other Credit Documents, or for any failure of the Borrower to perform its obligations
hereunder or thereunder. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible to any Lender or the L/C Issuer for the effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectability or sufficiency of this Credit Agreement, or any of the other
Credit Documents or for any representations, warranties, recitals or statements made herein or therein or made by the Borrower in any written or oral statement or in any financial or other statements, instruments, reports, certificates or any other
documents in connection herewith or therewith furnished or made by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders or the L/C Issuer or by or on behalf of the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer or be required to ascertain or
inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, provisions, covenants or agreements contained herein or therein or as to the use of the proceeds of the Extensions of Credit or of the existence or possible existence of
any Default or Event of Default or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Borrower or any of its affiliates. 
  
 9.4 Reliance on Communications. 
  
 The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, consent,
certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or
Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to the Borrower, independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent with reasonable care). The Administrative Agent may deem
and treat the Lenders as the owners of their respective interests hereunder for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section
10.3(b) hereof. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the L/C Issuer, the Administrative
Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or the L/C Issuer unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or the L/C Issuer prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of
such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Credit Agreement or under any of the other Credit Documents unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the
Required Lenders as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The
Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder or under any of the other Credit Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or to the extent specifically provided in
Section 10.6, all the Lenders) and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders (including their successors and assigns). 
  

 67 

 9.5 Notice of Default. 
  
 The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of
Default hereunder, except with respect to defaults on payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or the
Borrower referring to the Credit Document, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall
give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders. 
  
 9.6 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders.

  
 Each Lender and the L/C Issuer expressly acknowledges
that each of the Administrative Agent and its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates has not made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Administrative Agent or any affiliate thereof
hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower or any of its affiliates, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the L/C Issuer. Each Lender and the L/C Issuer
represents to the Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or the L/C Issuer, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own
appraisal of and investigation into the business, assets, operations, property, financial and other conditions, prospects and creditworthiness of the Borrower or its affiliates and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into
this Credit Agreement. Each Lender and the L/C Issuer also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or the L/C Issuer, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem
appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Credit Agreement, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, assets,
operations, property, financial and other conditions, prospects and creditworthiness of the Borrower and its affiliates. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders and the L/C Issuer by the
Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender or the L/C Issuer with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, assets, property, financial or other
conditions, prospects or creditworthiness of the Borrower or any of its affiliates which may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates. 
  
 9.7 Indemnification. 
  
 The Lenders agree to indemnify each of the Administrative Agent in its
capacity as such and the L/C Issuer in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective Revolving Commitment (or if the Revolving
Commitments have expired or been terminated, in 
  

 68 

 accordance with the respective principal amounts of outstanding Loans and Participation Interests of the Lenders), from
and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including without limitation at any time following the final
payment of all of the obligations of the Borrower hereunder and under the other Credit Documents) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such or the L/C Issuer in its capacity as such in any way
relating to or arising out of this Credit Agreement or the other Credit Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the
Administrative Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses or disbursements resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. If any
indemnity furnished to the Administrative Agent or the L/C Issuer for any purpose shall, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, be insufficient or become impaired, the Administrative Agent or the L/C Issuer
may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished. The agreements in this Section shall survive the repayment of the Loans and other obligations under the
Credit Documents and the termination of the Revolving Commitments hereunder. 
  
 9.8 Administrative Agent in its Individual Capacity. 
  
 The Administrative Agent and its affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower, its
Subsidiaries or their affiliates as though the Administrative Agent were not the Administrative Agent hereunder. With respect to the Loans made by the Administrative Agent hereunder and all obligations of the Borrower hereunder and under the other
Credit Documents, the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Credit Agreement as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the terms “Lender” and
“Lenders” shall include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity. 
  
 9.9 Successor Administrative Agent. 
  
 Each of the Administrative Agent and any L/C Issuer may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders
shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrower, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. In the case of a retiring Administrative
Agent, if no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent
may, on behalf of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying
Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless 
  

 69 

 become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its
duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Credit Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or any L/C Issuer under any of the Credit Documents, the retiring
Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative
Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and each L/C Issuer directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s
appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be
discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Credit Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be
the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, the provisions of this Article
and Section 10.05 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Affiliates and the partners, directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors in respect of any actions
taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent. 
  
 Any resignation by Bank of America as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as L/C Issuer. Upon the
acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring L/C Issuer, (b) the retiring L/C Issuer shall
be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Credit Documents, and (c) the successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the
time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to the retiring L/C Issuer to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring L/C Issuer with respect to such Letters of Credit. 
  
 In the event of any dismissal or resignation by any L/C Issuer, any Letters
of Credit issued by such retiring L/C Issuer shall remain outstanding until termination pursuant to their terms and such retiring L/C Issuer shall retain all the rights and obligations of an L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to all such Letters of
Credit and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 2.3(c)), but excluding the right to consent to
eligible assignees hereunder and the obligation to issue new Letters of Credit. 
  
 9.10 Arrangers and Book Managers. 
  
 None of the Lenders or other Persons identified on the facing page or signature pages of this Credit Agreement or the other Credit Documents as a “Syndication Agent”, “Joint Book Manager” or
“Joint Lead Arranger” shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents other than, in 
  

 70 

 the case of such Lenders, those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Lenders or
other Persons so identified shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of the Lenders or other Persons so identified in deciding to enter
into this Credit Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder.

ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY
WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY AGENT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. In no event

Parties”) have any liability to the Borrower, any Lender, any L/C Issuer or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the Borrower’s or the
Administrative Agent’s transmission of Borrower Materials through the Internet, except to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable
judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent Party; provided, however, that in no event shall any Agent Party have any liability to the Borrower, any Lender, any L/C Issuer or any other Person
for indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages). 
  

 71 

 10.2 Right of Set-Off. 
  
 In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law or otherwise, and not by way of limitation of any
such rights, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Lender and the L/C Issuer is authorized at any time and from time to time, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind (all of which rights being hereby expressly
waived), to set-off and to appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special) and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Lender or the L/C Issuer (including, without limitation branches, agencies or affiliates of such
Lender or the L/C Issuer wherever located) to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against obligations and liabilities of the Borrower to such Lender or the L/C Issuer hereunder, under the Notes or the other Credit Documents,
irrespective of whether such Lender or the L/C Issuer shall have made any demand hereunder and although such obligations, liabilities or claims, or any of them, may be contingent or unmatured, and any such set-off shall be deemed to have been made
immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default even though such charge is made or entered on the books of such Lender or the L/C Issuer subsequent thereto. Any Person purchasing a participation in the Loans and Revolving Commitments
hereunder pursuant to Section 3.16 or Section 10.3(d) may exercise all rights of set-off with respect to its participation interest as fully as if such Person were a Lender hereunder. 
  
 10.3 Benefit of Agreement. 
  
 (a) Generally. This Credit Agreement shall be binding upon and inure
to the benefit of and be enforceable by the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto; provided that the Borrower may neither assign nor transfer any of its interests without prior written consent of the Lenders; provided
further that the rights of each Lender to transfer, assign or grant participations in its rights and/or obligations hereunder shall be limited as set forth in this Section 10.3, provided, however that nothing
herein shall prevent or prohibit any Lender from (i) pledging its Loans hereunder to a Federal Reserve Bank in support of borrowings made by such Lender from such Federal Reserve Bank, or (ii) granting assignments or selling participations in such
Lender’s Loans and/or Revolving Commitment hereunder to its parent company and/or to any affiliate or Subsidiary of such Lender. 
  
 (b) Assignments. Each Lender may assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations hereunder, pursuant to an assignment agreement substantially
in the form of Schedule 10.3(b), to (i) any Lender or any affiliate or Subsidiary of a Lender, or (ii) any other commercial bank, financial institution or “accredited investor” (as defined in Regulation D of the Securities Act of
1933) reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, with the approval of the Borrower (which approval
shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that (i) any such assignment (other than any assignment to an existing Lender) shall be in a minimum aggregate amount of $5,000,000 (or, if less, the remaining amount of the Revolving
Commitments being assigned by such Lender) of the Revolving Commitments and in integral multiples of $1,000,000 above such amount and (ii) each such assignment (other than Competitive Loans) shall be of a constant, not varying, percentage of all
such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement. Any 
  

 72 

 assignment hereunder shall be effective upon delivery to the Administrative Agent of written notice of the assignment
together with a transfer fee of $2,500 payable to the Administrative Agent for its own account from and after the later of (i) the effective date specified in the applicable assignment agreement and (ii) the date of recording of such assignment in
the Register pursuant to the terms of subsection (c) below. The assigning Lender will give prompt notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower of any such assignment. Upon the effectiveness of any such assignment (and after notice to,
and (to the extent required pursuant to the terms hereof), with the consent of, the Borrower as provided herein), the assignee shall become a “Lender” for all purposes of this Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents and, to the
extent of such assignment, the assigning Lender shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder to the extent of the Loans and Revolving Commitments components being assigned. Along such lines the Borrower agrees that upon notice of any such
assignment, it will promptly provide to the assigning Lender and to the assignee separate promissory notes in the amount of their respective interests substantially in the form of the original Note. By executing and delivering an assignment
agreement in accordance with this Section 10.3(b), the assigning Lender thereunder and the assignee thereunder shall be deemed to confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) such assigning Lender warrants
that it is the legal and beneficial owner of the interest being assigned thereby free and clear of any adverse claim; (ii) except as set forth in clause (i) above, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no
responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Credit Agreement, any of the other Credit Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto, or the
execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Credit Agreement, any of the other Credit Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto or the financial condition of the
Borrower or any of its affiliates or the performance or observance by the Borrower of any of its obligations under this Credit Agreement, any of the other Credit Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto;
(iii) such assignee represents and warrants that it is legally authorized to enter into such assignment agreement; (iv) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Credit Agreement, the other Credit Documents and such other documents
and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such assignment agreement; (v) such assignee will independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, such assigning Lender or any
other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents; (vi) such
assignee appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or
thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all the obligations which by the terms of this Credit Agreement and the other Credit
Documents are required to be performed by it as a Lender (including without limitation the requirements of Section 3.13). 
  
 (c) Maintenance of Register. The Administrative Agent shall maintain at one of its offices in Charlotte, North Carolina a copy of each Lender
assignment agreement delivered to it in accordance with the terms of subsection (b) above and a register for the recordation of the 
  

 73 

 identity of the principal amount, type and Interest Period of each Loan outstanding hereunder, the L/C Obligations
outstanding hereunder and the names, addresses and the Revolving Commitments of the Lenders pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The Administrative Agent will make diligent efforts to maintain the
accuracy of the Register and to promptly update the Register from time to time, as necessary. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Lenders
may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Credit Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the L/C Issuer and each
Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 
  
 (d) Participations. Each Lender may sell, transfer, grant or assign participations in all or any part of such Lender’s interests and/or obligations hereunder; provided that (i) such selling Lender
shall remain a “Lender” for all purposes under this Credit Agreement (such selling Lender’s obligations under the Credit Documents remaining unchanged) and the participant shall not constitute a Lender hereunder, (ii) no such
participant shall have, or be granted, rights to approve any amendment or waiver relating to this Credit Agreement or the other Credit Documents except to the extent any such amendment or waiver would (A) reduce the principal of or rate of interest
on or Fees in respect of any Loans in which the participant is participating, (B) postpone the date fixed for any payment of principal (including extension of the Termination Date or the date of any mandatory prepayment), interest or Fees in which
the participant is participating, or (C) increase the dollar amount of such participant’s participation over the dollar amount thereof in effect (it being understood and agreed that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or mandatory
reduction in the participation amount (through a reduction in the Revolving Commitments or otherwise) shall not constitute a change in the terms of the participation amount of any participant), and (iii) sub-participations by the participant (except
to an affiliate, parent company or affiliate of a parent company of the participant) shall be prohibited. In the case of any such participation, the participant shall not have any rights under this Credit Agreement or the other Credit Documents (the
participant’s rights against the selling Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the participation agreement with such Lender creating such participation) and all amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder shall be
determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation, provided, however, that such participant shall be entitled to receive additional amounts under Sections 3.6, 3.7, 3.9, 3.10, 3.13 and
3.14 on the same basis as if it were a Lender (but in no event shall such additional amounts exceed the amount which would have been payable to the relevant Lender in the absence of such participation, and subject to limitations on such
participant comparable to those contained in Section 3.12 with respect to Requesting Lenders). 
  
 10.4 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. 
  
 No failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under
any other Credit Document and no course of dealing between the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or any Lender and the Borrower shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder
or under any other Credit Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. 
  

 74 

 The rights and remedies provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which the
Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or any Lender would otherwise have. No notice to or demand on the Borrower shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the
rights of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or the Lenders to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. 
  
 10.5 Costs and Expenses; Indemnification. 
  
 The Borrower agrees to: (a) pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (i) of the Administrative Agent in connection with the negotiation,
preparation, execution and delivery and administration of this Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents and the documents and instruments referred to herein and therein (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of Helms
Mulliss & Wicker, PLLC, special counsel to the Administrative Agent) and any amendment, waiver or consent relating hereto and thereto including, but not limited to, any such amendments, waivers or consents resulting from or related to any
work-out, renegotiation or restructure relating to the performance by the Borrower under this Credit Agreement, provided, however, the Borrower’s obligations under this subsection (a) shall be limited to those of one law
firm, and (ii) of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Lenders in connection with enforcement of the Credit Documents and the documents and instruments referred to therein (including, without limitation, in connection with any such
enforcement, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and each of the Lenders); (b) pay and hold each of the Lenders harmless from and against any and all present and future stamp or documentary
taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies arising from any payment made hereunder or under any other Credit Document or from the execution, delivery or enforcement of, or otherwise with respect to, this Credit Agreement
or any other Credit Document and save each of the Lenders harmless from and against any and all liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay or omission (other than to the extent attributable to such Lender) to pay such taxes; and (c)
reimburse each Lender, each Arranger, each L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent, and their respective officers, directors, employees, representatives, from and hold each of them harmless against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages or
expenses incurred by any of them as a result of, or arising out of, or in any way related to, or by reason of any investigation, litigation or other proceeding (whether or not any Lender is a party thereto) related to the entering into and/or
performance of any Credit Document or the use of proceeds of any Extensions of Credit (including any refusal by the L/C Issuer to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not
strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit) or the consummation of any other transactions contemplated in any Credit Document, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel incurred in connection with
any such investigation, litigation or other proceeding (but excluding any such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses to the extent incurred by reason of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Person to be indemnified as
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment). 
  

 75 

 10.6 Amendments, Waivers and Consents. 
  
 Neither this Credit Agreement nor any other Credit Document nor any of the
terms hereof or thereof may be amended, changed, waived, discharged or terminated unless such amendment, change, waiver, discharge or termination is in writing entered into by, or approved in writing by, the Required Lenders and the Borrower,
provided, however, that: 
  
 (a) the consent of
each Lender affected thereby is required to: 
  
 (i) extend the final maturity of any Loan or any Revolving Commitment, or any portion thereof, or extend or waive any principal amortization payment of any Loan, or any portion thereof, or waive application of any mandatory prepayment;

  
 (ii) reduce the rate or extend the time of
payment of interest (other than as a result of waiving the applicability of any increase in interest rates after the occurrence of an Event of Default or on account of a failure to deliver financial statements on a timely basis) thereon or Fees
hereunder; 
  
 (iii) reduce or waive the
principal amount of any Loan or L/C Borrowing; 
  
 (iv) increase the Revolving Commitment of a Lender over the amount thereof in effect (it being understood and agreed that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or mandatory reduction in the Revolving Commitments shall not constitute a
change in the terms of any Revolving Commitment of any Lender); 
  
 (v) except as the result of or in connection with a dissolution, merger or disposition of a Subsidiary permitted under Section 7.3, release the Borrower from its obligations under the Credit Documents;

  
 (vi) amend, modify or waive any provision of
this Section 10.6 or Sections 3.6, 3.7, 3.8, 3.9, 3.10, 3.11, 3.13, 3.14, 3.15, 3.16, 8.1(a), 10.2, 10.3, 10.5, or 10.9; 
  
 (vii) reduce any percentage specified in, or otherwise
modify, the definition of Required Lenders; 
  
 (viii) expand or otherwise add any new currency to the definition of Available Foreign Currency; or 
  
 (ix) consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under (or in respect of) the Credit
Documents except as permitted thereby; and 
  
 (b) without the
consent of the Administrative Agent, no provision of Article IX may be amended; and 
  

 76 

 (c) without the consent of the L/C Issuer, no amendment, waiver or consent shall affect the rights or
duties of the L/C Issuer under this Credit Agreement or any Issuer Document relating to any Letter of Credit issued or to be issued by it. 
  
 Notwithstanding the fact that the consent of all the Lenders is required in certain circumstances as set forth above, (x) each Lender is entitled to vote
as such Lender sees fit on any bankruptcy reorganization plan that affects the Loans, and each Lender acknowledges that the provisions of Section 1126(c) of the United States Bankruptcy Code supersedes the unanimous consent provisions set forth
herein and (y) the Required Lenders may consent to allow the Borrower to use cash collateral in the context of a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding. 
  
 10.7 Counterparts. 
  
 This Credit Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which
shall constitute one and the same instrument. It shall not be necessary in making proof of this Credit Agreement to produce or account for more than one such counterpart. 
  
 10.8 Headings. 
  
 The headings of the Sections and subsections hereof are provided for convenience only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any
provision of this Credit Agreement. 
  
 10.9 Survival.

  
 All indemnities set forth herein, including, without
limitation, in Sections 3.10, 3.13, 3.14, 9.7 and 10.5 shall survive the execution and delivery of this Credit Agreement, the making of the Extensions of Credit, the repayment of the Loans and other obligations
under the Credit Documents and the termination of the Revolving Commitments hereunder, and all representations and warranties made by the Borrower herein shall survive delivery of the Notes and the making of the Extensions of Credit hereunder.

  
 10.10 Governing Law; Arbitration. 
  
 (a) THIS CREDIT AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS AND THE RIGHTS AND
OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER AND THEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA. Any legal action or proceeding to compel arbitration or to enforce an arbitration
award, in each case with respect to this Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document, shall be brought in the state or federal courts in the City of Charlotte, State of North Carolina and, by execution and delivery of this Credit Agreement, each
Party hereby irrevocably accepts for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts. With respect to any such legal action or proceeding, each Party further irrevocably consents to the
service of 
  

 77 

 process out of any of the aforementioned courts in any such action or proceeding by the mailing of copies thereof by
registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to it at the address set out for notices pursuant to Section 10.1, such service to become effective five (5) days after such mailing. Nothing herein shall affect the right of the Administrative
Agent to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. 
  
 (b) Each Party hereby irrevocably waives any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any of the aforesaid actions or proceedings arising out of or in connection with this Credit Agreement or any other Credit
Document brought in the courts referred to in subsection (a) hereof and hereby further irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an
inconvenient forum. 
  
 (c) (i) This Section
10.10(c) concerns the resolution of any controversies or claims between the Parties, whether arising in contract, tort or by statute, including but not limited to controversies or claims that arise out of or relate to: (A) this Credit Agreement
(including any renewals, extensions or modifications); or (B) any document related to this Credit Agreement (collectively a “Claim”). For the purposes of this Section 10.10(c) only, the term “Parties” shall
include any parent corporation, subsidiary or Affiliate of the Administrative Agent involved in the servicing, management or administration of any obligation described or evidenced by this Credit Agreement. 
  
 (ii) At the request of any Party to this Credit Agreement,
any Claim shall be resolved by binding arbitration in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act (Title 9, U.S. Code) (the “Arbitration Act”). The Arbitration Act will apply even though this Credit Agreement provides that it is
governed by the law of a specified state. 
  
 (iii) The arbitration proceedings will be conducted in accordance with the Arbitration Act, the then-current Commercial Financial Disputes Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association or any successor thereof
(“AAA”), and the terms of this Section 10.10(c). In the event of any inconsistency, the terms of this Section 10.10(c) shall control. 
  
 (iv) The language of arbitration shall be English. The place of arbitration shall be Charlotte, North
Carolina. Borrower and the Lenders shall attempt to agree upon one arbitrator, but if they are unable to agree, Borrower shall appoint an arbitrator and the Lenders shall appoint an arbitrator, and the two arbitrators so appointed shall appoint a
third arbitrator. The members of the arbitration panel, including the Party appointed arbitrators, shall not be advocates but shall remain impartial and independent throughout the conduct of the arbitration proceeding. 
  
 (v) Pre-hearing discovery shall be available to all Parties
and shall be governed by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. Such discovery may be used as evidence in the arbitration hearing to the same extent as if it were a court proceeding. All Parties shall make their agents and employees available upon
reasonable notice at reasonable times and places for pre-hearing depositions without the necessity of 
  

 78 

 subpoenas or other court orders. The arbitrators may issue orders to compel the attendance of, and
production of documents by, an agent or employee of a Party. In addition, the arbitrators may issue subpoenas to compel the attendance of, or the production of documents by, third party witnesses at depositions or at the arbitration hearing.

  
 (vi) The arbitration panel shall pass finally
upon all questions, both of law and fact, and its findings and award shall be conclusive subject to the Arbitration Act. The arbitration panel shall provide a concise written statement of the reason for its award. The arbitration award may be
submitted to any court of competent jurisdiction to be confirmed, judgment entered and enforced. 
  
 (vii) The procedures specified in this Section 10.10(c) shall be the sole and exclusive procedures for the resolution of disputes
between or among the Parties arising out of or relating to this Credit Agreement; provided, however, that a Party, without prejudice to the mandatory procedures of this Section 10.10(c) may file a complaint to seek injunctive
relief. 
  
 10.11 Confidentiality.

  
 Each of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the
Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and
other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential); (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory
authority; (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process; (d) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Credit Agreement or
the enforcement of rights hereunder; (e) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 10.11, to (i) any assignee or participant, or any prospective assignee or participant, any of its rights or
obligations under this Credit Agreement, subject to the terms of Section 10.3, or (ii) any direct or indirect contractual counterparty or prospective counterparty (or such contractual counterparty’s or prospective counterparty’s
professional advisor) to any credit derivative transaction relating to the Loans; (f) with the consent of the Borrower; (g) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.11
or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower and its Subsidiaries; (h) to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any other
similar organization or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about the investment portfolio of a Lender, the L/C Issuer or an Affiliate in connection with ratings issued with respect to such Lender, L/C Issuer
or an Affiliate; or (i) credit reporting activities pursuant to credit reporting laws, rules and regulations. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower or its Subsidiaries
relating to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries or their business, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries. 
  

 79 

 10.12 Severability. 
  
 If any provision of any of the Credit Documents is determined to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall
be fully severable and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect and shall be construed without giving effect to the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. 
  
 10.13 Entirety. 
  
 This Credit Agreement together with the other Credit Documents represent the entire agreement of the parties hereto and thereto, and supersede all prior
agreements and understandings, oral or written, if any, including any commitment letters or correspondence relating to the Credit Documents or the transactions contemplated herein and therein. 
  
 10.14 Binding Effect; Termination. 
  
 (a) This Credit Agreement shall become effective at such time on or after
the Effective Date when it shall have been executed by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall have received copies hereof (telefaxed or otherwise) which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each Lender,
and thereafter this Credit Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Lender and their respective successors and assigns. 
  
 (b) The term of this Credit Agreement shall be until no Loans, Letters of Credit or any other amounts payable hereunder or
under any of the other Credit Documents shall remain outstanding and until the Revolving Commitments hereunder shall have expired or been terminated. 
  
 10.15 Judgment Currency. 
  
 If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or under any other Credit Document in one currency
into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which
final judgment is given. The obligation of the Borrower in respect of any such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or any Lender hereunder or under the other Credit Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency
(the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Credit Agreement (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on
the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or such Lender of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or such Lender may in accordance with normal banking
procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or such Lender in the Agreement Currency, the
Borrower agrees, as a 
  

 80 

 separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or such
Lender or the Person to whom such obligation was owing against such loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or such Lender in such currency, the
Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or such Lender agrees to return the amount of any excess to the Borrower (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable law). 
  
 10.16 USA PATRIOT Act Notice. 
  
 Each Lender that is subject to the Act (as hereinafter defined) and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf
of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record
information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower in accordance with the
Act. 
  

 81

 Schedule 1.1 
  
 MANDATORY COST FORMULAE 
  

	1.	The Mandatory Cost (to the extent applicable) is an addition to the interest rate to compensate Lenders for the cost of compliance with: 

  

	 	(a)	the requirements of the Bank of England and/or the Financial Services Authority (or, in either case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions); or

  

	 	(b)	the requirements of the European Central Bank. 

  

	2.	On the first day of each Interest Period (or as soon as practicable thereafter) the Administrative Agent shall calculate, as a percentage rate, a rate (the “Additional Cost
Rate”) for each Lender, in accordance with the paragraphs set out below. The Mandatory Cost will be calculated by the Administrative Agent as a weighted average of the Lenders’ Additional Cost Rates (weighted in proportion to the
percentage participation of each Lender in the relevant Loan) and will be expressed as a percentage rate per annum. The Administrative Agent will, at the request of the Borrower or any Lender, deliver to the Borrower or such Lender as the case may
be, a statement setting forth the calculation of any Mandatory Cost. 

  

	3.	The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Lending Office in a Participating Member State will be the percentage notified by that Lender to the Administrative Agent.
This percentage will be certified by such Lender in its notice to the Administrative Agent as the cost (expressed as a percentage of such Lender’s participation in all Loans made from such Lending Office) of complying with the minimum reserve
requirements of the European Central Bank in respect of Loans made from that Lending Office. 

  

	4.	The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Lending Office in the United Kingdom will be calculated by the Administrative Agent as follows: 

  

	 	(a)	in relation to any Loan in British Pounds Sterling: 

  

			
	AB+C(B-D)+E x 0.01	 	   per cent per annum

	100 - (A+C)	 

  

	 	(b)	in relation to any Loan in any currency other than British Pounds Sterling: 

  

			
	E x 0.01	 	   per cent per annum

	300	 

 Where: 
  

	 	“A”	is the percentage of Eligible Liabilities (assuming these to be in excess of any stated minimum) which that Lender is from time to time required to maintain as an interest free cash
ratio deposit with the Bank of England to comply with cash ratio requirements. 

  

	 	“B”	is the percentage rate of interest (excluding the Applicable Rate, the Mandatory Cost and any interest charged on overdue amounts pursuant to Section 3.1 and, in the case of
interest (other than on overdue amounts) charged at the Default Rate, without counting any increase in interest rate effected by the charging of the Default Rate) payable for the relevant Interest Period of such Loan. 

  

	 	“C”	is the percentage (if any) of Eligible Liabilities which that Lender is required from time to time to maintain as interest bearing Special Deposits with the Bank of England.

  

	 	“D”	is the percentage rate per annum payable by the Bank of England to the Administrative Agent on interest bearing Special Deposits. 

  

	 	“E”	is designed to compensate Lenders for amounts payable under the Fees Regulations and is calculated by the Administrative Agent as being the average of the most recent rates of
charge supplied by the Lenders to the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph 7 below and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000. 

  

	5.	For the purposes of this Schedule: 

  

	 	(a)	“Eligible Liabilities” and “Special Deposits” have the meanings given to them from time to time under or pursuant to the Bank of England Act 1998
or (as may be appropriate) by the Bank of England; 

  

	 	(b)	“Fees Regulations” means the FSA Supervision Manual or such other law or regulation as may be in force from time to time in respect of the payment of fees for the
acceptance of deposits; 

  

	 	(c)	“Fee Tariffs” means the fee tariffs specified in the Fees Regulations under the activity group A.1 Deposit acceptors (ignoring any minimum fee or zero rated fee
required pursuant to the Fees Regulations but taking into account any applicable discount rate); and 

  

	 	(d)	“Tariff Base” has the meaning given to it in, and will be calculated in accordance with, the Fees Regulations. 

  

	6.	In application of the above formulae, A, B, C and D will be included in the formulae as percentages (i.e. 5% will be included in the formula as 5 and not as 0.05). A negative
result obtained by subtracting D from B shall be taken as zero. The resulting figures shall be rounded to four decimal places. 

	7.	If requested by the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, each Lender with a Lending Office in the United Kingdom or a Participating Member State shall, as soon as practicable after
publication by the Financial Services Authority, supply to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, the rate of charge payable by such Lender to the Financial Services Authority pursuant to the Fees Regulations in respect of the relevant financial
year of the Financial Services Authority (calculated for this purpose by such Lender as being the average of the Fee Tariffs applicable to such Lender for that financial year) and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000 of the Tariff Base of such
Lender. 

  

	8.	Each Lender shall supply any information required by the Administrative Agent for the purpose of calculating its Additional Cost Rate. In particular, but without limitation, each
Lender shall supply the following information in writing on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Lender: 

  

	 	(a)	its jurisdiction of incorporation and the jurisdiction of the Lending Office out of which it is making available its participation in the relevant Loan; and

  

	 	(b)	any other information that the Administrative Agent may reasonably require for such purpose. 

  
 Each Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent in writing of any change to the information provided by it pursuant to this
paragraph. 
  

	9.	The percentages or rates of charge of each Lender for the purpose of A, C and E above shall be determined by the Administrative Agent based upon the information supplied to it
pursuant to paragraphs 7 and 8 above and on the assumption that, unless a Lender notifies the Administrative Agent to the contrary, each Lender’s obligations in relation to cash ratio deposits, Special Deposits and the Fees
Regulations are the same as those of a typical bank from its jurisdiction of incorporation with a Lending Office in the same jurisdiction as such Lender’s Lending Office. 

  

	10.	The Administrative Agent shall have no liability to any Person if such determination results in an Additional Cost Rate which over- or under-compensates any Lender and shall be
entitled to assume that the information provided by any Lender pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above is true and correct in all respects. 

  

	11.	The Administrative Agent shall distribute the additional amounts received as a result of the Mandatory Cost to the Lenders on the basis of the Additional Cost Rate for each Lender
based on the information provided by each Lender pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above. 

  

	12.	Any determination by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Schedule in relation to a formula, the Mandatory Cost, an Additional Cost Rate or any amount payable to a Lender
shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all parties hereto. 

  

	13.	The Administrative Agent may from time to time, after consultation with the Borrower and the Lenders, determine and notify to all parties any amendments which are required to be
made to this Schedule in order to comply with any change in law, regulation or any 

 requirements from time to time imposed by the Bank of England, the Financial Services Authority or the
European Central Bank (or, in any case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) and any such determination shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all parties hereto.

 ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS 
  
 In July 2001, the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina entered a comprehensive consent decree between the Borrower and the United States Environmental
Protection Agency and several states that resolves a broad array of alleged past environmental violations at eight of the Borrower’s steel manufacturing mills and six of its Vulcraft facilities. To date, the Borrower believes that it is and
will remain in full compliance with all terms and conditions of the consent decree. All agreed-upon penalties have been fully paid and the Borrower has no reason to believe that performing any of the remaining consent decree requirements will have a
Material Adverse Effect upon it.

 The Class B(2005-1) Notes 
  
 Section 2.01 Creation and Designation. There is hereby created a tranche of MBNAseries Class B Notes to be issued pursuant to the Indenture and the
MBNAseries Indenture Supplement to be known as the “MBNAseries Class B(2005-1) Notes.” 
  
 Section 2.02 Specification of Required Subordinated Amount and other Terms. 
  
 (a) Notwithstanding any provision of Section 2.03 of the Indenture Supplement to the contrary, on any date of
determination, the available subordinated amount of Class C Notes for the Class B(2005-1) Notes shall be at least equal to the Class B Required Subordinated Amount of Class C Notes for the Class B(2005-1) Notes. For purposes of this clause, the
available subordinated amount of Class C Notes for the Class B(2005-1) Notes as of any date will be an amount equal to, after giving effect to any issuances, deposits, allocations, reallocations or payments to be made on that date: 
  
 (i) the aggregate Nominal Liquidation Amount of all tranches
of Class C Notes which are Outstanding on that date; minus 
  
 (ii) the sum of (A) the aggregate Class B Required Subordinated Amount of Class C Notes for all other tranches of Class B Notes which are Outstanding on that date plus (B) the aggregate Class A Required
Subordinated Amount of Class C Notes for all tranches of Class A Notes for which the Class A Required Subordinated Amount of Class B Notes is equal to zero which are Outstanding on that date. 
  
 (b) (i) For the Class B(2005-1) Notes for any date of
determination, the Class B Required Subordinated Amount of Class C Notes will be an amount equal to the product of (A) the Adjusted Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of the Class B(2005-1) Notes on such date, times (B) the sum of:

  
 (x) a fraction, the numerator of which is the
aggregate Class A Required Subordinated Amount of Class C Notes for all tranches of Class A Notes which are Outstanding on that date, for which the Class A Required Subordinated Amount of Class B Notes is greater than zero and the denominator of
which is the aggregate Adjusted Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount for all tranches of Class B Notes (including the Class B(2005-1) Notes) which are Outstanding on that date; plus 
  
 (y) the product of: 
  
 (1) 8.10811%; times 
  
 (2) a fraction, the numerator of which is the aggregate
Adjusted Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount for all tranches of Class B Notes (including the Class B(2005-1) Notes) which are Outstanding on that date minus the aggregate Class A Required Subordinated Amount of 
  

 7 

 Class B Notes for all tranches of Class A Notes which are Outstanding on that date, and the denominator
of which is the aggregate Adjusted Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount for all tranches of Class B Notes (including the Class B(2005-1) Notes) which are Outstanding on that date. 
  
 (ii) If an Early Redemption Event with respect to the Class B(2005-1) Notes shall have occurred, if an Event
of Default and acceleration of the Class B(2005-1) Notes shall have occurred or if the Class B Usage of the Class C Required Subordinated Amount for the Class B(2005-1) Notes is greater than zero, on any date of determination following any such
event, the Class B Required Subordinated Amount of Class C Notes for the Class B(2005-1) Notes shall be the greater of (i) the amount determined pursuant to subsection 2.02(b)(i) on such date of determination and (ii) the amount determined
pursuant to subsection 2.02(b)(i) as of close of business on the day immediately preceding the occurrence of such Early Redemption Event, such Event of Default and acceleration or the date on which the Class B Usage of Class C Required
Subordinated Amount exceeded zero. 
  
 (c) The Issuer may change
the definition of the Class B Required Subordinated Amount of Class C Notes with respect to the Class B(2005-1) Notes without the consent of any Noteholder so long as the Issuer has (i) received written confirmation from each Note Rating Agency that
has rated any Outstanding Notes of the MBNAseries that the change in such definition will not result in a Ratings Effect with respect to any Outstanding Class B(2005-1) Notes and (ii) delivered to the Indenture Trustee and the Note Rating Agencies a
Master Trust Tax Opinion and an Issuer Tax Opinion with respect to such change. 
  
 Section 2.03. Interest Payment. 
  
 (a) For each Interest Payment Date, the amount of interest due with respect to the Class B(2005-1) Notes shall be an amount equal to the product of (i)(A) a fraction, the numerator of which is the actual number of days in the related
Interest Period and the denominator of which is 360, times (B) the Note Interest Rate in effect with respect to the related Interest Period, times (ii) the Outstanding Dollar Principal Amount of the Class B(2005-1) Notes determined as
of the Record Date preceding the related Transfer Date. Interest on the Class B(2005-1) Notes will be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days in the related Interest Period and a 360-day year. 
  
 (b) Pursuant to Section 3.03 of the Indenture Supplement, on each
Transfer Date, the Indenture Trustee shall deposit into the Class B(2005-1) Interest Funding sub-Account the portion of MBNAseries Available Funds allocable to the Class B(2005-1) Notes. 
  
 Section 2.04. Calculation Agent; Determination of LIBOR. 
  
 (a) The Issuer hereby agrees that for so long as any Class B(2005-1) Notes
are Outstanding, there shall at all times be an agent appointed to calculate LIBOR for each Interest Period (the “Calculation Agent”). The Issuer hereby initially appoints the Indenture Trustee as the Calculation Agent for purposes
of determining LIBOR for each Interest Period. The Calculation Agent may be removed by the Issuer at any time. If the Calculation Agent is unable 
  

 8 

 or unwilling to act as such or is removed by the Issuer, or if the Calculation Agent fails to determine LIBOR for an
Interest Period, the Issuer shall promptly appoint a replacement Calculation Agent that does not control or is not controlled by or under common control with the Issuer or its Affiliates. The Calculation Agent may not resign its duties, and the
Issuer may not remove the Calculation Agent, without a successor having been duly appointed. 
  
 (b) On each LIBOR Determination Date, the Calculation Agent shall determine LIBOR on the basis of the rate for deposits in United States dollars for a one-month period which appears on Telerate Page 3750 as of 11:00
a.m., London time, on such date. If such rate does not appear on Telerate Page 3750, the rate for that LIBOR Determination Date shall be determined on the basis of the rates at which deposits in United States dollars are offered by the Reference
Banks at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on that day to prime banks in the London interbank market for a one-month period. The Calculation Agent shall request the principal London office of each of the Reference Banks to provide a quotation
of its rate. If at least two such quotations are provided, the rate for that LIBOR Determination Date shall be the arithmetic mean of the quotations. If fewer than two quotations are provided as requested, the rate for that LIBOR Determination Date
will be the arithmetic mean of the rates quoted by four major banks in New York City, selected by the Beneficiary, at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on that day for loans in United States dollars to leading European banks for a
one-month period. 
  
 (c) The Note Interest Rate applicable to the
then current and the immediately preceding Interest Periods may be obtained by telephoning the Indenture Trustee at its corporate trust office at (212) 815-3247 or such other telephone number as shall be designated by the Indenture Trustee for such
purpose by prior written notice by the Indenture Trustee to each Noteholder from time to time. 
  
 (d) On each LIBOR Determination Date, the Calculation Agent shall send to the Indenture Trustee and the Beneficiary, by facsimile transmission, notification of LIBOR for the following Interest Period. 
  
 Section 2.05. Payments of Interest and Principal. 
  
 (a) Any installment of interest or principal, if any, payable on any Class
B(2005-1) Note which is punctually paid or duly provided for by the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee on the applicable Interest Payment Date or Principal Payment Date shall be paid by the Paying Agent to the Person in whose name such Class B(2005-1)
Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes) is registered on the Record Date, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such Person’s account as has been designated by written instructions received by the Paying Agent from such Person not
later than the close of business on the third Business Day preceding the date of payment or, if no such account has been so designated, by check mailed first-class, postage prepaid to such Person’s address as it appears on the Note Register on
such Record Date, except that with respect to Notes registered on the Record Date in the name of the nominee of Cede & Co., payment shall be made by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account designated by such nominee.

  

 9 

 (b) The right of the Class B(2005-1) Noteholders to receive payments from the Issuer will terminate on
the first Business Day following the Class B(2005-1) Termination Date. 
  
 Section 2.06. Form of Delivery of Class B(2005-1) Notes; Depository; Denominations. 
  
 (a) The Class B(2005-1) Notes shall be delivered in the form of a global Registered Note as provided in Sections 202 and 301(i) of the
Indenture, respectively. 
  
 (b) The Depository for the Class
B(2005-1) Notes shall be The Depository Trust Company, and the Class B(2005-1) Notes shall initially be registered in the name of Cede & Co., its nominee. 
  

(c) The Class B(2005-1) Notes will be issued in minimum denominations of $5,000 and multiples of $1,000 in excess of that amount. 
  
 Section 2.07. Delivery and Payment for the Class B(2005-1) Notes. The
Issuer shall execute and deliver the Class B(2005-1) Notes to the Indenture Trustee for authentication, and the Indenture Trustee shall deliver the Class B(2005-1) Notes when authenticated, each in accordance with Section 303 of the
Indenture. 
  
 Section 2.08. Targeted Deposits to the
Accumulation Reserve Account. The deposit targeted to be made to the Accumulation Reserve Account for any Monthly Period during the Accumulation Reserve Funding Period will be an amount equal to the Required Accumulation Reserve sub-Account
Amount.
