provision (or if Lender notifies Borrower that Lender requests an amendment to any provision hereof for such purpose), regardless of whether any such notice is given before or after such Accounting Change or in the application thereof, then Lender

(d) Payment. (i) All interest and all other fees payable hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents shall be due and
payable, in arrears, on the first day of each month; provided, however, that if at any time such payment shall be prohibited under the Intercreditor Agreement, such amounts shall be paid in kind (in lieu of cash) on such date by being capitalized
and added to the unpaid principal balance of the Delayed Draw Term Loans and (ii) all costs and expenses payable hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, and all other Lender Expenses shall be due and payable on the earlier of
(x) the first day of the month following the date on which the applicable costs, expenses, or Lender Expenses were first incurred, or (y) the date on which demand therefor is made by Lender (it being acknowledged and agreed that any
charging of such costs, expenses or Lender Expenses to the Loan Account pursuant to the provisions of the following sentence shall be deemed to constitute demand for payment thereof for the purpose of this subclause (y)); provided, however, that if

shall thereupon constitute Delayed Draw Term Loans hereunder, shall constitute Obligations hereunder, and shall initially accrue interest at the rate set forth in Section 2.6(a). 

(e) Computation. All interest and fees chargeable under the Loan Documents shall be computed on the basis of a 360 day year, in each
case, for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which the interest or fees accrue. In the event the Prime Rate is changed from time to time hereafter, the rates of interest hereunder based upon the Prime Rate automatically and
immediately shall be increased or decreased by an amount equal to such change in the Prime Rate.

rate or rates payable under this Agreement, plus any other amounts paid in connection herewith, exceed the highest rate permissible under any law that a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable.
Borrower and the Lender, in executing and delivering this Agreement, intend legally to agree upon the rate or rates of interest and manner of payment stated within it; provided, that anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding,
if such rate or rates of interest or manner of payment exceeds the maximum allowable under applicable law, then, ipso facto, as of the date of this Agreement, Borrower is and shall be liable only for the payment of such maximum amount as is
allowed by law, and payment received from Borrower in excess of such legal maximum, whenever received, shall be applied to reduce the principal balance of the Obligations to the extent of such excess. 

2.7 Crediting Payments. The receipt of any payment item by Lender shall not be required to be considered a payment on account
unless such payment item is a wire transfer of immediately available funds made to Lender’s Account or unless and until such payment item is honored when presented for payment. Should any payment item not be honored when presented for payment,
then Borrower shall be deemed not to have made such payment. Anything to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding, any payment item shall be deemed received by Lender only if it is received into Lender’s Account on a Business Day on or
before 1:30 p.m. If any payment item is received into Lender’s Account on a non-Business Day or after 1:30 p.m. on a Business Day (unless Lender, in its sole discretion, elects to credit it on the date received), it shall be deemed to have been
received by Lender as of the opening of business on the immediately following Business Day. 
 2.8 Designated Account. Lender
is authorized to make the Delayed Draw Term Loans under this Agreement based upon telephonic or other instructions received from anyone purporting to be an Authorized Person or, without instructions, if pursuant to Section 2.6(d).

Lender and Borrower, any Delayed Draw Term Loan requested by Borrower and made by Lender hereunder shall be made to the Designated Account. 

2.9 Maintenance of Loan Account; Statements of Obligations. Lender shall maintain an account on its books in the name of Borrower
(the “Loan Account”) on which Borrower will be charged with all Delayed Draw Term Loans made by Lender to Borrower or for Borrower’s account and with all other payment Obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents,
including, accrued interest, fees and expenses, and Lender Expenses. In accordance with Section 2.7, the Loan Account will be credited with all payments received by Lender from Borrower or for Borrower’s account. Lender shall make
available to Borrower upon request monthly statements regarding the Loan Account, including the principal amount of the Delayed Draw Term Loans, interest accrued hereunder, fees accrued or charged hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and a
summary itemization of all charges and expenses constituting Lender Expenses accrued hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and each such statement, absent manifest error, shall be conclusively presumed to be correct and accurate and
constitute an account stated between Borrower and the Lender unless, within 30 days after Lender first makes such a statement available to Borrower, Borrower shall deliver to Lender written objection thereto describing the error or errors contained
in such statement.

 (a) by written notice to Borrower, declare the principal of, and any
and all accrued and unpaid interest and fees in respect of, the Loans and all other Obligations , whether evidenced by this Agreement or by any of the other Loan Documents to be immediately due and payable, whereupon the same shall become and be
immediately due and payable and Borrower shall be obligated to repay all of such Obligations in full, without presentment, demand, protest, or further notice or other requirements of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Borrower;

 (b) by written notice to Borrower, declare the Commitments terminated, whereupon the Commitments shall immediately be terminated together
with any obligation of Lender to make Delayed Draw Term Loans; and 
 (c) exercise all other rights and remedies available to Lender under

 The foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default
described in Section 8.4 or Section 8.5, in addition to the remedies set forth above, without any notice to Borrower or any other Person or any act by Lender, the Commitments shall automatically terminate and the Obligations,
inclusive of the principal of, and any and all accrued and unpaid interest and fees in respect of, the Loans and all other Obligations, whether evidenced by this Agreement or by any of the other Loan Documents, shall automatically become and be
immediately due and payable and Borrower shall automatically be obligated to repay all of such Obligations in full, without presentment, demand, protest, or notice or other requirements of any kind, all of which are expressly waived by Borrower.

  
 49 

 9.2 Remedies Cumulative. The rights and remedies of the Lender under this
Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and all other agreements shall be cumulative. The Lender shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided by law, or in equity. No exercise by the Lender of one right or remedy shall
be deemed an election, and no waiver by the Lender of any Default or Event of Default shall be deemed a continuing waiver. No delay by the Lender shall constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it. 

10. WAIVERS; INDEMNIFICATION. 
 10.1
Demand; Protest; etc. Borrower waives demand, protest, notice of protest, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of documents,
instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees at any time held by the Lender on which Borrower may in any way be liable. 
 10.2
[Reserved]. 
 10.3 Indemnification. Borrower shall pay, indemnify, defend, and hold the Lender-Related Persons
(each, an “Indemnified Person”) harmless (to the fullest extent permitted by law) from and against any and all claims, demands, suits, actions, investigations, proceedings, liabilities, fines, costs, penalties, and damages, and all
reasonable fees and disbursements of attorneys, experts, or consultants and all other costs and expenses actually incurred in connection therewith or in connection with the enforcement of this indemnification (as and when they are incurred and
irrespective of whether suit is brought), at any time asserted against, imposed upon, or incurred by any of them (a) in connection with or as a result of or related to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, any of the other Loan
Documents, or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the monitoring of Borrower’s and its Subsidiaries’ compliance with the terms of the Loan Documents, (b) with respect to any actual or prospective investigation,
litigation, or proceeding related to this Agreement, any other Loan Document, the making of any Loans hereunder, or the use of the proceeds of the Loans provided hereunder (irrespective of whether any Indemnified Person is a party
thereto), or any act, omission, event, or circumstance in any manner related thereto, and (c) in connection with or arising out of any presence or release of Hazardous Materials at, on, under, to or from any assets or properties owned, leased
or operated by any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries or any Environmental Actions, Environmental Liabilities or Remedial Actions related in any way to any such assets or properties of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries (each and all of
the foregoing, the “Indemnified Liabilities”). This Section 10.3 shall not apply with respect to Taxes which shall be governed by Section 16 other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc.
arising from any non-Tax claim. The foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, no Borrower shall have any obligation to any Indemnified Person under this Section 10.3 with respect to any Indemnified Liability that a court of competent
jurisdiction finally determines to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person or its officers, directors, employees, attorneys, or agents. This provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement
and the repayment in full of the Obligations. If any Indemnified Person makes any payment to any other Indemnified Person with respect to an Indemnified Liability as to which Borrower is required to indemnify the Indemnified Person receiving such
payment, the Indemnified Person making such payment is entitled to be indemnified and reimbursed by Borrower with respect thereto. WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE FOREGOING INDEMNITY SHALL APPLY TO EACH INDEMNIFIED PERSON WITH RESPECT TO
INDEMNIFIED LIABILITIES WHICH IN WHOLE OR IN PART ARE CAUSED BY OR ARISE OUT OF ANY NEGLIGENT ACT OR OMISSION OF SUCH INDEMNIFIED PERSON OR OF ANY OTHER PERSON.

or the performance or observance by any Loan Party of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document furnished pursuant hereto, (iii) such Assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with
such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance, (iv) such Assignee will, independently and without reliance upon Lender, 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 Agreement, and (v) such Assignee agrees that
it will perform all of the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender. 
 (d)
Immediately upon delivery of notice to the assigning Lender pursuant to Section 13.1(b), this Agreement shall be deemed to be amended to the extent, but only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of the Assignee and the
resulting adjustment of the Commitments arising therefrom. The Commitment allocated to each Assignee shall reduce such Commitments of the assigning Lender pro tanto. 

(e) In connection with any such assignment or proposed assignment or any grant of a security interest in, or pledge of, its rights under and
interest in this Agreement, Lender may, subject to the provisions of Section 17.9, disclose all documents and information which it now or hereafter may have relating to any Loan Party and its Subsidiaries and their respective businesses.

 (f) Any other provision in this Agreement notwithstanding, Lender may at any time create a security interest in, or pledge, all or any
portion of its rights under and interest in this Agreement to secure obligations of Lender, including any pledge in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Federal Reserve Bank or U.S. Treasury Regulation 31 CFR
§203.24, and such Federal Reserve Bank may enforce such pledge or security interest in any manner permitted under applicable law; provided, that no such pledge shall release Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any
such pledgee or assignee for Lender as a party hereto. 
 (g) Lender (as a non-fiduciary agent on behalf of Borrower) shall maintain, or
cause to be maintained, a register (the “Register”) on which it enters the name and address of Lender as the registered owner of the Loan (and the principal amount thereof and stated interest thereon) held by Lender (each, a
“Registered Loan”). Other than in connection with an assignment by Lender of all or any portion of its portion of the Commitments to an Affiliate of Lender or a Related Fund of Lender (i) a Registered

  
 56 

 
Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same) may be assigned or sold in whole or in part only by registration of such assignment or sale on the Register (and each registered note
shall expressly so provide) and (ii) any assignment or sale of all or part of such Registered Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same) may be effected only by registration of such assignment or sale on the Register, together
with the surrender of the registered note, if any, evidencing the same duly endorsed by (or accompanied by a written instrument of assignment or sale duly executed by) the holder of such registered note, whereupon, at the request of the designated
assignee(s) or transferee(s), one or more new registered notes in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the designated assignee(s) or transferee(s). Prior to the registration of assignment or sale of any Registered Loan (and the
registered note, if any evidencing the same), Borrower shall treat the Person in whose name such Registered Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same) is registered as the owner thereof for the purpose of receiving all payments
thereon and for all other purposes, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. In the case of any assignment by Lender of all or any portion of its Commitment to an Affiliate of Lender or a Related Fund of Lender, and which assignment is not recorded
in the Register, the assigning Lender, on behalf of Borrower, shall maintain a register comparable to the Register. 
 (h) Lender shall make
a copy of the Register available for review by Borrower from time to time as Borrower may reasonably request. 
 13.2
Successors. This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of each of the parties; provided, that no Borrower may assign this Agreement or any rights or duties hereunder without the
Lender’s prior written consent and any prohibited assignment shall be absolutely void ab initio. No consent to assignment by the Lender shall release Borrower from its Obligations. Lender may assign this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents and its rights and duties hereunder and thereunder pursuant to Section 13.1 and, except as expressly required pursuant to Section 13.1, no consent or approval by Borrower is required in connection with any such assignment. 

 

	14.	 AMENDMENTS; WAIVERS. 

14.1 Amendments and Waivers. Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, no amendment, waiver or other modification of
any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and no consent with respect to any departure by Borrower therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Lender and the Loan Parties that are party
thereto and then any such waiver or consent shall be effective, but only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. 

14.2 [Reserved]. 

14.3 No Waivers; Cumulative Remedies. No failure by Lender to exercise any right, remedy, or option under this Agreement or any
other Loan Document, or delay by Lender in exercising the same, will operate as a waiver thereof. No waiver by Lender will be effective unless it is in writing, and then only to the extent specifically stated. No waiver by Lender on any occasion
shall affect or diminish Lender’s rights thereafter to require strict performance by Borrower of any provision of this Agreement. Lender’s rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents will be cumulative and not exclusive of any
other right or remedy that Lender may have. 
 15. INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that pursuant to the
terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Loan Parties are restricted from paying, and Lender is restricting from receiving certain payments of principal and interest hereunder, including scheduled payments and mandatory or voluntary prepayments,
and the Lender is restricted from exercising certain 

  
 57 

 
rights it has hereunder. The parties hereto agree that they shall comply with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement but that (i) the failure of the Loan Parties to make any payment that
is otherwise due hereunder but for the restrictions of the Intercreditor Agreement shall nonetheless constitute an Event of Default hereunder. Further the parties hereto agree that the failure of Lender to take any action which it is otherwise
entitled to take but for the restrictions in the Intercreditor Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of Lender’s right to take such action at any time such restrictions no longer apply. 

 

	16.	 WITHHOLDING TAXES. 

16.1 Payments. All payments made by any Loan Party under any Loan Document will be made free and clear of, and without deduction
or withholding for, any Taxes, except as otherwise required by applicable law, and in the event any deduction or withholding of Taxes is required, the applicable Loan Party shall make the requisite withholding, promptly pay over to the applicable
Governmental Authority the withheld tax, and furnish to Lender as promptly as possible after the date the payment of any such Tax is due pursuant to applicable law, certified copies of tax receipts evidencing such payment by the Loan Parties.
Furthermore, if any such Tax is an Indemnified Taxes or an Indemnified Tax is so levied or imposed, the Loan Parties agree to pay the full amount of such Indemnified Taxes and such additional amounts as may be necessary so that every payment of all
amounts due under this Agreement, any note, or Loan Document, including any amount paid pursuant to this Section 16.1 after withholding or deduction for or on account of any Indemnified Taxes, will not be less than the amount provided
for herein. The Loan Parties will promptly pay any Other Taxes or reimburse Lender for such Other Taxes upon Lender’s demand. The Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient (collectively a “Tax
Indemnitee”) for the full amount of Indemnified Taxes arising in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or breach thereof by any Loan Party (including, without limitation, any Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on, or
attributable to, amounts payable under this Section 16) imposed on, or paid by, such Tax Indemnitee and all reasonable costs and expenses related thereto (including fees and disbursements of attorneys and other tax professionals), as and
when they are incurred and irrespective of whether suit is brought, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority (other than Indemnified Taxes and additional amounts that
a court of competent jurisdiction finally determines to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Tax Indemnitee). The obligations of the Loan Parties under this Section 16 shall survive the termination of
this Agreement and the repayment of the Obligations. 
  

	 	16.2	 Exemptions. 

(a) If a Lender is entitled to claim an exemption or reduction from United States withholding tax, such Lender agrees with and in favor of
Lender and the Loan Parties, to deliver to Lender and the Borrower on behalf of Borrower one of the following before receiving its first payment under this Agreement: 

(i) if such Lender is entitled to claim an exemption from United States withholding tax pursuant to the portfolio interest exception,
(A) a statement of the Lender, signed under penalty of perjury, that it is not a (I) a “bank” as described in Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the IRC, (II) a 10% shareholder of Borrower (within the meaning of
Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the IRC), or (III) a controlled foreign corporation related to Borrower within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the IRC, and (B) a properly completed and executed IRS Form W-8BEN, Form W-8BEN-E or Form
W-8IMY (with proper attachments as applicable); 

  
 58 

 (ii) if such Lender is entitled to claim an exemption from, or a reduction of, withholding
tax under a United States tax treaty, a properly completed and executed copy of IRS Form W-8BEN or Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, claiming such treaty benefit; 

(iii) if such Lender is entitled to claim that interest paid under this Agreement is exempt from United States withholding tax because it is
effectively connected with a United States trade or business of such Lender, a properly completed and executed copy of IRS Form W-8ECI; 

(iv) if such Lender is entitled to claim that interest paid under this Agreement is exempt from United States withholding tax because such
Lender serves as an intermediary, a properly completed and executed copy of IRS Form W-8IMY (including a withholding statement and copies of the tax certification documentation for its beneficial owner(s) of the income paid to the intermediary, if
required based on its status provided on the Form W-8IMY); or 
 (v) a properly completed and executed copy of any other form or forms,
including IRS Form W-9, as may be required under the IRC or other laws of the United States as a condition to exemption from, or reduction of, United States withholding or backup withholding tax. 

(b) Each Lender shall provide new forms (or successor forms) upon the expiration or obsolescence of any previously delivered forms and will
promptly notify Lender and Borrower of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction. 

(c) If a Lender claims an exemption from withholding tax in a jurisdiction other than the United States, such Lender agrees with and in favor
of Lender and the Loan Parties, to deliver to Lender and Borrower any such form or forms, as may be required under the laws of such jurisdiction as a condition to exemption from, or reduction of, foreign withholding or backup withholding tax before
receiving its first payment under this Agreement, but only if such Lender is legally able to deliver such forms, or the providing of or delivery of such forms in the Lender’s reasonable judgment would not subject such Lender to any material
unreimbursed cost or expense or materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender (or its Affiliates); provided, that nothing in this Section 16.2(c) shall require a Lender to disclose any information that it
deems to be confidential (including without limitation, its tax returns). Each Lender shall promptly provide new forms (or successor forms) upon the expiration or obsolescence of any previously delivered forms and will promptly notify Lender and
Borrower of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction. 
 (d) If a Lender claims
exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax and such Lender sells, assigns, grants a participation in, or otherwise transfers all or part of the Obligations of Borrower to such Lender, such Lender agrees to notify Lender and Borrower (or, in
the case of a sale of a participation interest, to the Lender granting the participation only) of the percentage amount in which it is no longer the beneficial owner of Obligations of Borrower to such Lender. To the extent of such percentage amount,
Lender and Borrower will treat such Lender’s documentation provided pursuant to Section 16.2(a) or 16.2(c) as no longer valid. With respect to such percentage amount, such Assignee shall provide new documentation, pursuant to
Section 16.2(a) or 16.2(c), if applicable. 
 (e) If a payment made to a Recipient under any Loan Document would be
subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Recipient were to fail to comply with the applicable due diligence and reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the IRC, as
applicable), such Recipient shall deliver to Lender and Borrower at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Lender or Borrower such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by
Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the IRC) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Lender or Borrower as may be necessary for Lender or the Loan Parties to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender
has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (e), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of
this Agreement. 

  
 59 

 (f) [Reserved]. 
  

	 	16.3	 Reductions. 

(a) If a Lender is subject to an applicable withholding tax, Lender may withhold from any payment to such Lender an amount equivalent to the
applicable withholding tax. If the forms or other documentation required by Section 16.2(a) or 16.2(c) are not delivered to Lender, then Lender, may withhold from any payment to such Lender not providing such forms or other
documentation an amount equivalent to the applicable withholding tax. 
 (b) If the IRS or any other Governmental Authority of the United
States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that Lender did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender due to a failure on the part of the Lender (because the appropriate form was not delivered, was not properly
executed, or because such Lender failed to notify Lender of a change in circumstances which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective, or for any other reason) such Lender shall indemnify and hold Lender harmless for
all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by Lender, as tax or otherwise, including penalties and interest, and including any taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on the amounts payable to Lender under this Section 16, together with all
costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses). The obligation of the Lender under this subsection shall survive the payment of all Obligations. 

16.4 Refunds. If Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes with respect
to which any Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 16, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, it shall pay over such refund to the Borrower on behalf of the Loan Parties (but
only to the extent of payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Loan Parties under this Section 16 with respect to Indemnified Taxes giving rise to such a refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of Lender and without interest
(other than any interest paid by the applicable Governmental Authority with respect to such a refund); provided, that the Loan Parties, upon the request of Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties,
interest or other charges, imposed by the applicable Governmental Authority, other than such penalties, interest or other charges imposed as a result of the willful misconduct or gross negligence of Lender hereunder as finally determined by a court
of competent jurisdiction) to Lender in the event Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 16 shall not be construed to require
Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information which it deems confidential) to Loan Parties or any other Person or require Lender to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to Section 16.4, the payment of
which would place Lender (or its Affiliates) in a less favorable net after-Tax position than such Person would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and
the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid.

	17.	 GENERAL PROVISIONS.

 17.2 Section Headings. Headings and numbers have been set forth herein for
convenience only. Unless the contrary is compelled by the context, everything contained in each Section applies equally to this entire Agreement. 

17.3 Interpretation. Neither this Agreement nor any uncertainty or ambiguity herein shall be construed against the Lender or
Borrower, whether under any rule of construction or otherwise. On the contrary, this Agreement has been reviewed by all parties and shall be construed and interpreted according to the ordinary meaning of the words used so as to accomplish fairly the
purposes and intentions of all parties hereto. 
 17.4 Severability of Provisions. Each provision of this Agreement shall be
severable from every other provision of this Agreement for the purpose of determining the legal enforceability of any specific provision. 

17.5 [Reserved]. 
 17.6
Debtor-Creditor Relationship. The relationship between the Lender, on the one hand, and the Loan Parties, on the other hand, is solely that of creditor and debtor. Lender does not have (nor shall be deemed to have) any fiduciary
relationship or duty to any Loan Party arising out of or in connection with the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby, and there is no agency or joint venture relationship between the Lender, on the one hand, and the Loan Parties,
on the other hand, by virtue of any Loan Document or any transaction contemplated therein. 
 17.7 Counterparts; Electronic
Execution. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which, when taken together,
shall constitute but one and the same Agreement. Execution of any such counterpart may be by means of (a) an electronic signature that complies with the federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, state enactments of the
Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, or any other relevant and applicable electronic signatures law; (b) an original manual signature; or (c) a faxed, scanned, or photocopied manual signature. Each electronic signature or faxed, scanned,

mutandis. 
 17.8 Revival and Reinstatement of Obligations; Certain Waivers. 

(a) If Lender repays, refunds, restores, or returns in whole or in part, any payment or property previously paid
or transferred to Lender in full or partial satisfaction of any Obligation or on account of any other obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document, because the payment, transfer, or the incurrence
of the obligation so satisfied is asserted or declared to be void, voidable, or 

  
 61 

 
otherwise recoverable under any law relating to creditors’ rights, including provisions of the Bankruptcy Code relating to fraudulent transfers, preferences, or other voidable or
recoverable obligations or transfers (each, a “Voidable Transfer”), or because Lender elects to do so on the reasonable advice of its counsel in connection with a claim that the payment, transfer, or incurrence
is or may be a Voidable Transfer, then, as to any such Voidable Transfer, or the amount thereof that Lender elects to repay, restore, or return (including pursuant to a settlement of any claim in respect thereof), and as to all
reasonable costs, expenses, and attorneys’ fees of Lender thereto, the liability of the Loan Parties with respect to the amount or property paid, refunded, restored, or returned will automatically and immediately be revived,
reinstated, and restored and will exist, in each case, as fully as if such Voidable Transfer had never been made. If, prior to any of the foregoing, (any provision of this Agreement shall have been terminated or cancelled,
such provision of this Agreement, shall be reinstated in full force and effect and such prior termination, cancellation or surrender shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect the obligation of any Loan Party in respect
of such liability. This provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the repayment in full of the Obligations. 
 (b)
Anything to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding, if Lender accepts a guaranty of only a portion of the Obligations pursuant to any guaranty, Borrower hereby waives its right under Section 2822(a) of the California Civil Code or any
similar laws of any other applicable jurisdiction to designate the portion of the Obligations satisfied by the applicable guarantor’s partial payment. 
  

	 	17.9	 Confidentiality. 

(a) Lender agrees that material, non-public information regarding the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries, their operations, assets, and
existing and contemplated business plans (“Confidential Information”) shall be treated by Lender in a confidential manner, and shall not be disclosed by Lender to Persons who are not parties to this Agreement, except: (i) to

hereunder subject to the terms of this Section 17.9, (iii) as may be required by regulatory authorities so long as such authorities are informed of the confidential nature of such information, (iv) as may be required by
statute, decision, or judicial or administrative order, rule, or regulation; provided, that (x) prior to any disclosure under this clause (iv), the disclosing party agrees to provide Borrower with prior notice thereof, to the extent that
it is practicable to do so and to the extent that the disclosing party is permitted to provide such prior notice to Borrower pursuant to the terms of the applicable statute, decision, or judicial or administrative order, rule, or regulation and
(y) any disclosure under this clause (iv) shall be limited to the portion of the Confidential Information as may be required by such statute, decision, or judicial or administrative order, rule, or regulation, (v) as may be agreed to

participation or pledge of Lender’s interest under this Agreement; provided, that prior to receipt of Confidential Information any such assignee, participant, or pledgee shall have agreed in writing to receive such Confidential
Information either subject to the terms of this Section 17.9 or pursuant to 

  
 62 

 
confidentiality requirements substantially similar to those contained in this Section 17.9 (and such Person may disclose such Confidential Information to Persons employed or engaged

17.10 Survival. All representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or
other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and
the making of any Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or Event of Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the

Parties, their senior management and key principals and legal and beneficial owners. Each Loan Party agrees to cooperate in respect of the conduct of such due diligence and further agrees that the reasonable costs and charges for any such due
diligence by Lender shall constitute Lender Expenses hereunder and be for the account of Borrower.

Documents, that the payment of any and all of the Subordinated Debt shall be subordinate and subject in right and time of payment, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth (and subject to any exceptions set forth herein), to the prior
Discharge of the Senior Debt. Each holder of Senior Debt, whether now outstanding or hereafter created, incurred, assumed or guaranteed, shall be deemed to have acquired Senior Debt in reliance upon the provisions contained in this Agreement. 

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, a Third Party (as defined in the Merger Agreement) may pay the Permitted Third
Party Repayment Amount to the Subordinated Creditor (i) in connection with the assignment and assumption of the Subordinated Creditor’s rights and obligations under the Subordinated Debt Documents to such Third Party in accordance with

under the Subordinated Debt Documents so long as (w) such Third Party is not an affiliate of the Company, (x) in connection with such payment, the Subordinated Debt is deemed to be satisfied in full in connection therewith and the
Subordinated Debt Documents shall terminate and be of no further force and effect (other than any terms or conditions relating to indemnification or reimbursement that expressly survive termination of such documents and which shall remain
subordinated to the Senior Debt in 

  
 7 

 
accordance with the terms hereof) and all obligations thereunder (including any obligations that otherwise may be owing by the Company or any other Loan Party to the Third Party thereunder) shall
be deemed satisfied and discharged in full, (y) all material terms and agreements related to such payment have been disclosed to Agent, and (z) (1) the Company does not require Agent’s consent under the Senior Debt Documents to
execute and deliver the definitive documentation with respect to such Third Party’s Acquisition Proposal (as defined in the Merger Agreement), (2) the Board of the Company has determined that the Third Party’s Acquisition Proposal (as
defined in the Merger Agreement) constitutes a Superior Proposal (as defined in the Merger Agreement), (3) none of the Company or any of its subsidiaries has agreed or provided any commitment to agree to any commercial transaction (including

subsidiaries will make any cash payment in respect of the termination of the Subordinated Debt, except that the Company may, for the avoidance of doubt, pay the Subordinated Creditor the Company Termination Fee if required in accordance with the
Merger Agreement. 
 2.2 Liquidation, Dissolution, Bankruptcy. In the event of any Proceeding involving any Loan Party: 

(a) The Discharge of the Senior Debt shall have occurred before any Distribution in such Proceeding, whether in cash,
securities or other property, shall be made to the Subordinated Creditor on account of any Subordinated Debt (other than (i) a Distribution in the form of Subordinated PIK Payments, (ii) a Distribution in the form of Reorganization
Subordinated Securities if, in the case of Reorganization Subordinated Securities, Subordinated Creditors and Agent shall have entered into such supplements to, or modifications of, this Agreement as Agent may reasonably request to reflect the
continued subordination of the Reorganization Subordinated Securities to the Senior Debt (or notes or other securities issued in substitution of all or a portion thereof) to the same extent as provided herein, and (iii) the Offset Repayment).

 (b) Any Distribution in such Proceeding, whether in cash, securities or other property which would otherwise, but for the
terms hereof, be payable or deliverable in respect of the Subordinated Debt (other than (i) a Distribution in the form of Subordinated PIK Payments, (ii) a Distribution in the form of Reorganization Subordinated Securities if, in the case
of Reorganization Subordinated Securities, Subordinated Creditors and Agent shall have entered into such supplements to, or modifications of, this Agreement as Agent may reasonably request to reflect the continued subordination of the Reorganization
Subordinated Securities to the Senior Debt (or notes or other securities issued in substitution of all or a portion thereof) to the same extent as provided herein, and (iii) the Offset Repayment) shall be paid or delivered directly to Agent (to
be held and/or applied by Agent in accordance with the terms of the Senior Debt Documents) until the Discharge of the Senior Debt. The Subordinated Creditor irrevocably authorizes, empowers and directs any debtor, debtor in possession, receiver,
trustee, liquidator, custodian, conservator or other Person having authority, to pay or otherwise deliver all such Distributions to Agent (other than any Distribution constituting a Permitted Subordinated Debt Payment that was permitted hereunder at
the time made and received by the Subordinated Creditor prior to the commencement of the applicable Proceeding). The Subordinated Creditor also irrevocably authorizes and empowers Agent, in the name of the Subordinated Creditor, to demand, sue for,
collect and receive any and all such Distributions. 

  
 8 

 (c) The Subordinated Creditor agrees not to (i) initiate, prosecute or
participate in any claim, action or other proceeding challenging the enforceability, validity, perfection or priority of the Senior Debt, the Senior Debt Documents or any liens and security interests in property securing the Senior Debt, it being
understood and agreed that nothing in this Agreement shall prevent the Subordinated Creditor from serving on or chairing any official or ad hoc committee of unsecured creditors so long as the Subordinated Creditor recuses itself from participation
in any such challenge and (ii) without the consent of the Agent, directly or indirectly propose, support or vote in favor of any plan of reorganization or similar dispositive restructuring plan in connection with a Proceeding that is
inconsistent in any material respect with this Agreement (including, without limitation, that does not provide for Discharge of the Senior Debt prior to any Distribution in connection with the Subordinated Debt other than a Distribution in the form
of Subordinated PIK Payments or Reorganization Subordinated Securities if Subordinated Creditors and Agent shall have entered into such supplements to, or modifications of, this Agreement as Agent may reasonably request to reflect the continued
subordination of the Reorganization Subordinated Securities to the Senior Debt (or notes or other securities issued in substitution of all or a portion thereof) to the same extent as provided herein) or receipt of the Offset Repayment. Agent agrees
not to initiate, prosecute or participate in any claim, action or other proceeding challenging the enforceability or validity of the Subordinated Debt. 

(d) Following Discharge of the Senior Debt, any Distribution which may be payable or deliverable in respect of the Subordinated
Debt shall be paid or delivered directly to the Subordinated Creditor for application in satisfaction of the Subordinated Debt until such time as all the Subordinated Debt shall have been paid in full in cash. 

(e) The Subordinated Creditor hereby irrevocably authorizes, empowers and appoints Agent as its agent and attorney-in-fact to execute, verify, deliver and file proofs of claim in respect of the Subordinated Debt upon the failure of the Subordinated Creditor promptly to do so prior
to 5 days before the expiration of the time to file any such proof of claim; provided that Agent shall have no obligation to execute, verify, deliver and/or file any claim with the authority granted hereby. Agent shall have no right to vote such
claim in any such Proceeding. 
 (f) The Senior Debt shall continue to be treated as Senior Debt and the provisions of this
Agreement shall continue to govern the relative rights and priorities of Senior Lenders and the Subordinated Creditor even if all or part of the Senior Debt or the security interests securing the Senior Debt are subordinated, set aside, avoided,
invalidated or disallowed in connection with any such Proceeding, and this Agreement shall be reinstated if at any time any payment of any of the Senior Debt is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any holder of Senior Debt or any
representative of such holder. For clarity, nothing in this Section 2.2 shall be deemed to prohibit a Permitted Third Party Payment that would otherwise be permitted under the second paragraph of Section 2.1 hereof. 

  
 9 

 (g) The Subordinated Creditor shall not offer to provide or support any
other offer to provide, any debtor-in-possession financing in a Proceeding involving the Company, as debtor, unless either (i) the Discharge of the Senior Debt will
occur in connection therewith or (ii) such debtor-in-possession financing is subordinated to the Senior Debt substantially on the same terms as set forth herein.

 2.3 Subordinated Debt Payment Restrictions. 

(a) Notwithstanding the terms of the Subordinated Debt Documents, each Loan Party hereby agrees that it may not make, and the
Subordinated Creditor hereby agrees that it will not accept, any Distribution or other payment with respect to the Subordinated Debt until the Discharge of the Senior Debt, other than, subject to the terms of Section 2.2 of
this Agreement, Permitted Subordinated Debt Payments, any Permitted Third Party Payment (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not constitute Distributions), any Offset Repayment and any payments made in accordance with Section 2.3(b). For
clarity, no Subordinated PIK Payment may be paid in cash until the Discharge of the Senior Debt except as provided in Section 2.3(b) except in connection with an Offset Repayment and a Permitted Third Party Payment. 

(b) Subject to Section 2.2, if a Maturity Acceleration Event has occurred under the Senior Credit
Agreement and the Agent or the Senior Lenders have waived in writing the requirement that the Senior Debt be paid in full in connection therewith prior to the Subordinated Debt Maturity Date of the Subordinated Debt or has agreed in writing to,
notwithstanding the occurrence of the Maturity Acceleration Event, extend the Senior Debt Maturity Date to a date which is after the Subordinated Debt Maturity Date, the Subordinated Debt may be paid in full on the Subordinated Debt Maturity Date.

 (c) Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 2.3 to the contrary, the failure of the Loan
Parties to make any Distribution with respect to the Subordinated Debt by reason of the operation of this Section 2.3 shall not be construed as preventing the occurrence of a Subordinated Debt Default under the applicable
Subordinated Debt Documents. 
 2.4 Subordinated Debt Standstill Provisions. 

(a) The Subordinated Creditor will use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide Agent with a Subordinated Debt Default
Notice concurrent with providing any such notice to a Loan Party; provided that the failure to so provide such notice shall not adversely affect the rights of the Subordinated Creditor with respect to the Subordinated Debt Default(s)
specified therein or otherwise except as otherwise provided herein. 
 (b) Until the Discharge of the Senior Debt, the
Subordinated Creditor shall not, without the prior written consent of Agent, take any Enforcement Action with respect to the Subordinated Debt, until the earliest to occur of the following (and, with respect to clause (ii) below, no earlier
than ten (10) Business Days after Agent’s receipt of written notice of Subordinated Creditor’s intention to take any such Enforcement Action (which notice may be delivered during the Standstill Period)): 

  
 10 

 (i) acceleration of the Senior Debt; 

(ii) the expiration of the applicable Standstill Period so long as the Subordinated Debt Default for which the Subordinated
Debt Default Notice was delivered is still continuing at such time; or 
 (iii) the commencement of a Proceeding involving a
Loan Party; 
 Any Distributions or other proceeds of any Enforcement Action (in each case, other than Permitted Subordinated Debt Payments made in
compliance with the terms of this Agreement, any Permitted Third Party Payment, any payments permitted pursuant to Section 2.3(b) hereof (unless at the time of receipt of such payment the Senior Debt is then due and payable) and any Offset
Repayment) obtained by the Subordinated Creditor in respect of the Subordinated Debt shall in any event be promptly paid or delivered to Agent for the benefit of Senior Lenders in the form received until the Discharge of the Senior Debt has
occurred. 
 (c) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if following the acceleration of the Senior Debt
by Senior Lenders such acceleration is rescinded (whether or not any existing Senior Default has been cured or waived) in writing by the Agent, then all Enforcement Actions taken by the Subordinated Creditor shall likewise be rescinded if such
Enforcement Action is based solely on clause (i) of paragraph (b) of this Section 2.4 and such recission can be made without liability or prejudice to the Subordinated Creditor. 

(d) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Subordinated Creditor at any time and from time to time may
take any action described in clauses (i) through (viii) of the proviso at the end of the definition of “Enforcement Action”. 

(e) The Subordinated Creditor hereby: 

(i) agrees that it will not take any action, other than as expressly permitted under this Agreement, that would restrain,
hinder, limit, delay, or otherwise interfere with the rights and remedies of the Agent or any Senior Lender, or any action that is otherwise prohibited hereunder; 

(ii) waives any and all rights the Subordinated Creditor may have to object to the manner in which the Agent or any of the
other Senior Lenders, seek to enforce or collect the Senior Debt or the liens securing the Senior Debt granted in any assets of any Loan Party, regardless of whether any action or failure to act by or on behalf of the Agent or any other Senior Agent
is adverse to the interest of the Subordinated Creditor; 

  
 11 

 (iii) agrees not to contest, protest, or object to any exercise of rights
and remedies arising pursuant to the Senior Debt Documents or this Agreement by any Senior Lender; and 
 (iv) acknowledges
and agrees that no covenant, agreement or restriction contained in the Subordinated Debt Documents shall be deemed to restrict in any way the rights and remedies of the Agent or the other Senior Lenders with respect to any liens on any assets of any
Loan Party securing the Senior Debt. 
 2.5 Incorrect Payments. If any Distribution on account of the Subordinated Debt not permitted
to be made by the Loan Parties or accepted by the Subordinated Creditor under this Agreement is made and received by the Subordinated Creditor, such Distribution shall be promptly paid over to Agent for application (in accordance with the Senior
Debt Documents) to the payment of the Senior Debt then remaining unpaid, until the Discharge of the Senior Debt has occurred. 
 2.6
Acknowledgment, Consent, and Subordination of Liens and Security Interests; Agreement Not to Contest; Agreement to Release Liens; Waiver of Right to Contest Obligations and Liens. 

(a) The Subordinated Creditor hereby (y) acknowledges that the Loan Parties, either prior to the date hereof or
concurrently herewith, have granted or are granting liens on the Collateral in favor of the Agent to secure the Senior Debt and (z) consents, anything to the contrary contained in the Subordinated Loan Documents notwithstanding, to the grant by
such Loan Parties of the liens on the Collateral to secure the Senior Debt. Until the Discharge of the Senior Debt, any liens and security interests of the Subordinated Creditor in the Collateral which may exist in breach of the Subordinated
Creditor’s agreement pursuant to Section 3.2(g) or Section 4 of this Agreement shall be and hereby are subordinated for all purposes and in all respects to the liens and security interests of
Agent and Senior Lenders in the Collateral, regardless of the time, manner or order of perfection of any such liens and security interests. In the event that the Subordinated Creditor obtains any liens or security interests in the Collateral
securing the Subordinated Debt, the Subordinated Creditor shall (or shall cause its agent to) promptly execute and deliver to Agent such termination statements and releases as Agent shall reasonably request to effect the release of the liens and
security interests of the Subordinated Creditor in such Collateral. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Subordinated Creditor hereby irrevocably appoints Agent its
attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of the Subordinated Creditor and in the name of the Subordinated Creditor or otherwise, to execute and
deliver any document or instrument which the Subordinated Creditor may be reasonably required to deliver pursuant to this Section 2.6. 

(b) The Agent, for itself and on behalf of each other Senior Lender, and the Subordinated Creditor agrees that it will not (and
hereby waives any right to), directly or indirectly, contest or support any other Person in contesting, in any proceeding (including any Insolvency Proceeding), (i) the validity, priority, enforceability or allowance of any claims of any of the
Senior Lenders or the Subordinated Creditor, as the case may be, (ii) subject to the terms of this Agreement, the priority, validity, or 

  
 12 

 
enforceability of a lien held by or on behalf of any of the Senior Lender in any Collateral, as the case may be, or (iii) the validity or enforceability of the provisions of this Agreement;
provided, however that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of the Agent, any other Senior Lender, or the Subordinated Creditor to enforce the terms of this Agreement; provided,
further, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Subordinated Creditor may raise any objection to the bidding and related procedures proposed to be utilized in connection with any sale or disposition that may
be raised by unsecured creditors more generally. 
 2.7 Sale, Transfer or other Disposition of Subordinated Debt. 

(a) The Subordinated Creditor shall not sell, assign, pledge, dispose of or otherwise transfer all or any portion of the
Subordinated Debt or any Subordinated Debt Document except for an assignment of all, but not less than all of the Subordinated Debt and all rights of the Subordinated Creditor under the Subordinated Debt Documents to a transferee that is a Third
Party who has made a Superior Proposal (as defined in the Merger Agreement) which has been accepted by the Company so long as prior to the consummation of any such assignment, such Third Party executes and delivers to Agent an agreement consenting
to be bound by the terms of this Agreement to the same extent as if such Third Party were the original Subordinated Creditor hereunder and otherwise providing for the continued subordination of the Subordinated Debt to the Senior Debt as provided
herein. 
 (b) Notwithstanding the failure of any transferee to execute or deliver an agreement substantially identical to
this Agreement or to otherwise agree to be bound by the terms hereof as provided in Section 2.7(a) above, the subordination effected hereby shall survive any sale, assignment, pledge, disposition or other transfer of all or any portion of the
Subordinated Debt, and the terms of this Agreement shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of the Subordinated Creditor, as provided in Section 9 hereof. 

(c) The Subordinated Creditor may not assign the Subordinated Debt to any Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereof. 

2.8 Legends. All documents and instruments evidencing any of the Subordinated Debt, if any, shall be endorsed with a legend, in form
and substance satisfactory to Agent, noting that such documents and instruments are subject to this Agreement, and each Company shall promptly deliver to Agent evidence of the same. 

3. Modifications. 
 3.1
Modifications to Senior Debt Documents. Senior Lenders may, with the consent of the Company, at any time and from time to time without the consent of or notice to the Subordinated Creditor, without incurring liability to the Subordinated
Creditor and without impairing or releasing the obligations of the Subordinated Creditor under this Agreement, change the manner or place of payment or extend the time of payment of or renew or alter any of the terms of the Senior Debt, or amend or
otherwise modify in any manner any agreement, note, guaranty or other instrument evidencing or securing or otherwise relating to the Senior Debt; provided, that, 

  
 13

excess of the limitation on such aggregate principal amount set forth in the definition of Senior Debt, (b) increase the rate of interest on any of the Senior Debt by more than 3.00%; provided, for avoidance of doubt, an increase in the rate of

3.2 Modifications to Subordinated Debt Documents. Until the Discharge of the Senior Debt has occurred, and notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained in the Subordinated Debt Documents, the Subordinated Creditor shall not, without the prior written consent of Agent, agree to any amendment, modification or supplement to the Subordinated Debt Documents the effect of which is

doubt, an increase in the rate of interest shall not be deemed to have occurred as a result of (A) fluctuations in any underlying rate indices and (B) the imposition of a default rate of interest at the rate set forth and as permitted in
the Subordinated Credit Agreement as in effect on the date hereof, (c) change the dates upon which payments of principal or interest on the Subordinated Debt are due to an earlier date or in the case of interest, more frequent dates,
(d) except as provided below, change or add any event of default or any covenant with respect to the Subordinated Debt, (e) change any redemption or prepayment provisions of the Subordinated Debt (other than extensions of the dates of any

secure the Subordinated Debt, or (h) change or amend any other term of the Subordinated Debt Documents if such change or amendment would result in a Senior Default, or confer additional material rights on the Subordinated Creditor or any other
holder of the Subordinated Debt in a manner adverse to any Loan Party or Senior Lenders; provided, however, that the Subordinated Creditor shall be permitted to amend or modify the Subordinated Debt Documents to modify or add covenants, defaults or
other provisions, to the extent the corresponding provisions of the Senior Debt Documents have been amended or modified with cushions consistent with the cushions included in comparable covenants, defaults and other provisions in the Senior Debt
Documents. 
 4. Representations and Warranties of Subordinated Creditor. The Subordinated Creditor hereby represents and warrants to
Agent and Senior Lenders that as of the date hereof: (a) it is a corporation duly incorporated and validly existing under the laws of the State of Delaware; (b) it has the power and authority to enter into, execute, deliver and carry out
the terms of this Agreement, all of which have been duly authorized by all proper and necessary action; (c) its execution of this Agreement will not violate or conflict with its organizational documents, any material agreement binding upon it
or any law, regulation or order or require any consent or 

  
 14 

 
approval which has not been obtained; (d) this Agreement is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Subordinated Creditor, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except
as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by equitable principles; (e) it is the sole owner,
beneficially and of record, of the Subordinated Debt Documents and the Subordinated Debt; (f) the Subordinated Debt is an unsecured obligation of each Loan Party, and (g) there has been no amendment, waiver or other modification of any

necessary action; (b) its execution of this Agreement will not violate or conflict with its organizational documents, any material agreement binding upon it or any law, regulation or order or require any consent or approval which has not been
obtained; and (c) this Agreement is the legal, valid and binding obligation of Agent, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by equitable principles. 
 6.
Subrogation. Until the Discharge of the Senior Debt, the Subordinated Creditor waives all rights of subrogation with respect to the rights of Agent and Senior Lenders to receive Distributions with respect to the Senior Debt and agrees that it
shall not exercise any such right of subrogation until the Discharge of the Senior Debt. The Subordinated Creditor agrees that in the event that all or any part of a payment made with respect to the Senior Debt is recovered from the Senior Lenders
in a Proceeding or otherwise, any Distribution received by the Subordinated Creditor with respect to the Subordinated Debt (other than (i) a Distribution in the form of Subordinated PIK Payments, (ii) a Distribution in the form of of
Reorganization Subordinated Securities if, in the case of Reorganization Subordinated Securities, Subordinated Creditors and Agent shall have entered into such supplements to, or modifications of, this Agreement as Agent may reasonably request to
reflect the continued subordination of the Reorganization Subordinated Securities to the Senior Debt (or notes or other securities issued in substitution of all or a portion thereof) to the same extent as provided herein, (iii) the Offset
Repayment, and (iv) any Permitted Third Party Payment) at any time after the date of the payment that is so recovered, whether pursuant to the right of subrogation provided for in this Agreement or otherwise, shall be deemed to have been
received by the Subordinated Creditor in trust as property of the Senior Lenders and the Subordinated Creditor shall forthwith deliver the same to the Agent for the benefit of the Senior Lenders for application to the Senior Debt until the Discharge
of the Senior Debt. A Distribution made pursuant to this Agreement to Agent or Senior Lenders which otherwise would have been made to the Subordinated Creditor is not, as between the Loan Parties and the Subordinated Creditor, a payment by any Loan
Party to or on account of the Senior Debt. 
 7. Modification. No amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of this
Agreement, and no consent with respect to any departure by any party therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Agent and the Subordinated Creditor and then any such waiver or consent shall be effective, but
only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.
