(which is the last day of the third fiscal quarter of the fiscal year of Holdings ending on February 2, 2019) (a “Reference Quarter”), if (i) the Total Extensions of Credit as of the last day of such Reference Quarter exceeded
the Borrowing Base as of the last day of the Reference Quarter, and (ii) the Total Extensions of Credit as of the last day of the fiscal quarter of Holdings immediately preceding such Reference Quarter exceeded the Borrowing Base as of the last

 (e) The Borrowers
shall prepay Priority Obligation and/or Loans in an amount necessary to avoid the occurrence of a Collateral Coverage Event (as defined in the Indenture for the Existing Second Lien Notes). 

(f) Reserved.

 38

 SECTION
2.12. Increased Costs. (a)(a) If, due to either (i) after
(A) the Effective Date, with respect to Term Loans, or(B)
the date of any Line of Credit Loan, with respect to such Extension of
CreditLine of Credit Loan, or (C) the Fifth Amendment Effective Date, with respect to Alternative Tranche Line of
Credit Loans, the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other
governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law) made or issued after (A) the Effective Date, with respect to Term Loans,
or(B) the date of any Line of Credit Loan, with respect to such Extension of CreditLine of Credit Loan, or (C) the Fifth Amendment Effective Date, with respect to Alternative Tranche Line of Credit Loans, there shall be any increase in the cost to any Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining Eurodollar Rate Advances (excluding for purposes of this Section 2.12 any such increased costs
resulting from (i) Taxes or Other Taxes (as to which Section 2.15 shall govern) and (ii) changes in the basis of taxation of overall net income or overall gross income by the United States or by the foreign jurisdiction or state under
the laws of which such Lender is organized or has its Applicable Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof), then the Borrowers shall from time to time, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Agent), pay to the Agent
for the account of such Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increased cost; provided that a Lender claiming additional amounts under this Section 2.12(a) agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its
internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Applicable Lending Office and/or take other commercially reasonable action if the making of such a designation or the taking of such actions would avoid the need for, or
reduce the amount of, such increased cost that may thereafter accrue and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, submitted to the
Borrowers and the Agent by such Lender, shall be entitled to a presumption of correctness. If any Borrower so notifies the Agent after any Lender notifies the Borrowers of any increased cost pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this
Section 2.12(a), such Borrower may, upon payment of such increased cost to such Lender, replace such Lender with a Person that is an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the terms of Section 9.07 (and the Lender being so replaced shall
take all action as may be necessary to assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement to such Eligible Assignee). 
 (b) If
any Lender determines that compliance with any change after (i) the Effective
Date, with respect to Term Loans,
or(ii) the date of any Line of Credit Loan, with respect to such Extension of CreditLine of Credit Loan or (iii) the Fifth Amendment Effective Date, with respect to Alternative Tranche Line of Credit Loans, in law or regulation or any guideline or request after (x) the Effective Date, with respect to Term Loans,
or(y) the date of any Line of Credit Loan, with respect to such Extension of CreditLine of Credit Loan or (z) the Fifth Amendment Effective Date, with respect to Alternative Tranche Line of Credit Loans, from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law) affects or would affect the amount of capital or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or
any entity controlling such Lender and that the amount of such capital or liquidity is increased by or based upon the existence of such Lender’s commitment to lend hereunder and other commitments of this type, then, upon demand by such Lender
(with a copy of such demand to the Agent), the Borrowers shall pay to the Agent for the account of such Lender, from time to time as specified by such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or such entity in the light of
such circumstances, to the extent that such Lender reasonably determines such increase in capital or liquidity to be allocable to the existence of such Lender’s commitment to lend hereunder. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the
Borrowers and the Agent by such Lender shall be entitled to a presumption of correctness. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act 

  
 39 

 and all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives thereunder issued in connection therewith or in
implementation thereof and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign
regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a change in law covered by this Section 2.12 regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued or implemented. 

(c) The Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or capital, liquidity or
reserve requirement or pursuant to Section 2.15 for any Taxes incurred more than six months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrowers of the change or issuance giving rise to such increased costs or capital, liquidity or reserve
requirement or Tax and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided that if the change or issuance giving rise to such increased costs or capital, liquidity or reserve requirement or Tax is retroactive, then the
six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. 
 SECTION 2.13.
Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender shall notify the Agent that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation makes it unlawful, or any central bank or
other governmental authority asserts that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Eurodollar Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make Eurodollar Rate Advances or to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Advances hereunder, (a) each
Eurodollar Rate Advance will automatically, upon such demand, Convert into a Base Rate Advance, (b) the obligation of the Term Lenders to Convert Term Loan Borrowings into Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Agent shall notify
the Borrowers and the Term Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist and (c) each Eurodollar Rate Line of Credit Loan will automatically, upon such demand, convert into a fixed rateFixed Rate Line of Credit Loan with an equivalent effective interest rate as reasonably agreed by the Borrowers and the applicable Line of Credit Lender. 

SECTION 2.14. Payments and Computations. (a)(a) Except as set forth in Section 2.08(c), the Borrowers shall make each payment
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, without any right of counterclaim or set-off, not later than 1:00 P.M. on the day when due in U.S. dollars to the Agent into the account specified by the Agent in writing from time to time in same day
funds. The Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest or commitment fees (i) in the case of Term Loans, ratably (other than amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.12,
2.15 or 9.04(c)) to the Term Lenders for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Term Lender to such Term Lender for the account of its Applicable Lending
Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement
and, (ii) in the case of Line of Credit Loans, to the
applicable Line of Credit Lender(s) and (iii) in the case of Alternative Tranche Line of Credit Loans, to the Alternative
Tranche Line of Credit Lenders. Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and Acceptance and recording of the information contained therein in the Register pursuant to Section 9.07(c), from and
after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance, the Agent shall make all payments hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender assignee thereunder, and the parties to
such Assignment and Acceptance shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective date directly between themselves. 

(b) Each Borrower hereby authorizes each Lender, if and to the extent payment owed by it to such Lender is not made when due hereunder or under
the other Loan Documents, to charge from time to time against any or all of such Borrower’s accounts with such Lender any amount so due. Any such Lender so charging such accounts shall deliver the proceeds therefrom to the Agent for
distribution to the Credit Parties in the manner set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. 
 (c) (i) In the case of Term Loans, all
computations of interest based on the Base Rate shall be made by the Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and all computations of interest based on the Eurodollar Rate or the Federal Funds Rate and of duration-based
fees, if any, shall be made by the Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or commitment fees are
payable, (ii) in the case of Fixed Rate Line of Credit Loans, all computations of interest shall be made by the Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be,
and (iii) in the case of Eurodollar Rate Line of Credit Loans, all 

  
 40 

 computations of interest shall be made by the Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days and (iv) in the case of Alternative Tranche Line of Credit Loans, all computations of interest shall be computed on the basis of a
360-day year of twelve 30-day months, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or commitment
fees are payable. Each determination by the Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. 

(d) Whenever any payment hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment
shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or commitment fee, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if such extension
would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurodollar Rate Advances or Eurodollar Line of Credit Loans to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day. 

(e) Unless the Agent shall have received notice from any Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due by it to the Lenders hereunder
that such Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Agent may assume that the applicable Borrower has made such payment in full to the Agent on such date and the Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each
Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent such Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Agent, each Lender shall repay to the Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed
to such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate. 

SECTION 2.15. Taxes. (a)(a) Any and all payments by the Borrowers to or for the account of any Lender, the Agent
or the Collateral Agent hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or any other documents to be delivered hereunder shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.14 or the applicable provisions of such other documents, free and clear of and
without deduction for any and all present or future Taxes (excluding any Excluded Taxes). If the Borrowers shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any other
documents to be delivered hereunder to any Lender, the Agent or the Collateral Agent, (i) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that
after making all required deductions for Indemnified Taxes (including deductions for Indemnified Taxes applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.15) such Lender, the Agent and the Collateral Agent (as the case may be) receive
an amount equal to the sum each would have received had no such deductions of Indemnified Taxes been made, (ii) the Borrowers shall make such deductions as are determined by such Borrowers to be required based upon the information and
documentation it has received pursuant to Sections 2.15(e) and (f) and (iii) the Borrowers shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law. 

(b) In addition, the Borrowers shall pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or
similar levies that arise from any payment made hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or from the execution, delivery or registration of, performing under, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any other
documents to be delivered hereunder, but excluding (i) any such taxes that are Other Connection Taxes imposed with respect to an assignment (other than an assignment made pursuant to Section 9.16), and (ii) all other United States
federal taxes other than withholding taxes (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”). Other Taxes shall not include any Taxes imposed on, or measured by reference to, gross income, net income or gain. 

(c) Without duplication of any additional amounts paid pursuant to Section 2.15(a), the Borrowers shall indemnify each Lender, the Agent
and the Collateral Agent for and hold it harmless against the full amount of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.15)
imposed on or paid by such Lender, the Agent or the Collateral Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including penalties, interest and reasonable expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. This indemnification shall be made within
30 days from the date such Lender, the Agent or the Collateral Agent (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor. 

  
 41 

 (d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Indemnified Taxes, the Borrowers shall
furnish to the Agent, at its address referred to in Section 9.02, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing such payment to the extent such a receipt is issued therefor, or other written proof of payment thereof that is
reasonably satisfactory to the Agent. 
 (e) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax with respect
to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrowers
or the Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by
applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Agent as will enable the Borrowers or the Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. 

(i) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing: 

(a) Each Lender that is a United States person, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each
Lender and on the date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it becomes a Lender in the case of each other Lender, and from time to time thereafter as reasonably requested in writing by the Borrowers or the Agent), shall provide each of
the Agent and the Borrowers with two executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax on payments pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; and 

(b) Each Lender organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States, and each other Lender that is not a domestic corporation
within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code: 
 (1) represents that all payments to be made
to it under this Agreement or any other Loan Document are exempt from United States withholding tax (including backup withholding tax) under an applicable statute or tax treaty; 

(2) on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each Lender and on the date of the
Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it becomes a Lender in the case of each other Lender, and from time to time thereafter as reasonably requested in writing by the Borrowers (but only so long as such Lender remains lawfully able to do so),
shall provide each of the Agent and the Borrowers with two executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E or W-8ECI, as appropriate, or any successor or other form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, certifying that
such Lender is exempt from or entitled to a reduced rate of United States withholding tax on payments pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; and 

(3) on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each Lender and on the date of the
Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it becomes a Lender in the case of each other Lender, and from time to time thereafter as reasonably requested in writing by the Borrowers (but only so long as such Lender remains lawfully able to do so),
shall provide each of the Agent and the Borrowers with executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding tax, duly completed, together with
supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrowers or the Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made. 

  
 42 

 If the form provided by a Lender at the time such Lender first becomes a party to this Agreement
indicates a United States interest withholding tax rate in excess of zero, withholding tax at such rate shall be considered excluded from Indemnified Taxes unless and until such Lender provides the appropriate forms certifying that a lesser rate
applies, whereupon withholding tax at such lesser rate only shall be considered excluded from Indemnified Taxes for periods governed by such form; provided, however, that, if at the date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to
which a Lender assignee becomes a party to this Agreement, the Lender assignor was entitled to payments under subsection (a) in respect of United States withholding tax with respect to interest paid at such date, then, to such extent, the term
Indemnified Taxes shall include (in addition to withholding taxes that may be imposed in the future or other amounts otherwise includable in Indemnified Taxes) United States withholding tax, if any, applicable with respect to the Lender assignee on
such date. If any form or document referred to in this subsection (e) requires the disclosure of information, other than information necessary to compute the tax payable and information required on the date hereof by Internal Revenue Service
Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, or W-8ECI, that the Lender reasonably considers to be confidential, the Lender shall give notice thereof to the Borrowers and shall not be obligated to include in such form or document such confidential information. For
purposes of this subsection (e), the terms “United States” and “United States person” shall have the meanings specified in Section 7701 of the Internal Revenue Code. 

(f) For any period with respect to which a Lender has failed to provide the Borrowers with the appropriate form, certificate or other document
described in Section 2.15(e) (other than if such failure is due to a change in law, or in the interpretation or application thereof, occurring subsequent to the date on which a form, certificate or other document originally was
required to be provided, or if such form, certificate or other document otherwise is not required under subsection (e) above), such Lender shall not be entitled to indemnification under Section 2.15(a) or (c) with respect to
Indemnified Taxes imposed by the United States by reason of such failure; provided, however, that should a Lender become subject to Indemnified Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form, certificate or other document required
hereunder, the Borrowers shall take such steps as the Lender shall reasonably request to assist the Lender to recover such Indemnified Taxes. Further, if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding
tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrowers and
the Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal
Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Agent as may be necessary for the Borrowers and the Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with
such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this paragraph (f), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the Effective Date. 

(g) Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2.15 expires or becomes obsolete
or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrowers and the Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. 

(h) Any Lender claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.15 agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its
internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its Eurodollar Lending Office if the making of such a change would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts that may thereafter
accrue and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. 
 (i) If any Lender
determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has actually and finally realized, by reason of a refund, deduction or credit of any Indemnified Taxes paid or reimbursed by the Borrowers pursuant to subsection (a) or
(c) above in respect of payments under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, a current monetary benefit that it would otherwise not have obtained, and that would result in the total payments under this Section 2.15 exceeding the
amount needed to make such Lender whole, such Lender shall pay to the Borrowers, with reasonable promptness following the date on which it actually realizes such benefit, an amount equal to the amount of such excess, net of all out-of-pocket
expenses incurred by such Lender reasonably 

  
 43 

 allocable in securing such refund, deduction or credit, provided that the Borrowers, upon the request of
such Lender, agree to repay the amount paid over to the Borrowers to such Lender in the event such Lender is required to repay such refund to such jurisdiction. Nothing in this subsection (i) shall be construed to require any Lender to make
available to the Borrowers or any other Person its tax returns or any confidential tax information. 
 (j) If the Agent, the Collateral Agent
or any Lender, as the case may be, shall become aware that it is entitled to claim a refund from a Governmental Authority in respect of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.15, including Indemnified Taxes
or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by Borrower, or with respect to which Borrower or a Group Member that is a signatory hereto has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.15, it shall notify Borrower of the
availability of such refund claim and, if the Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender, as the case may be, determines in good faith that making a claim for refund will not have any adverse consequence to its taxes or business operations, shall,
after receipt of a request by Borrower, make a claim to such Governmental Authority for such refund at Borrower’s expense. 
 SECTION
2.16. Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Term Lender shall obtain any payment from any Group Member (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) on account of the Term Loan or other amounts owing
to it (other than pursuant to Section 2.05(b), 2.07, 2.11, 2.12, 2.15, 2.18, 2.19 or 9.04(c)) in excess of its ratable share, such Term Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Term Lenders such participations in the Term Loan or other
amounts owing to them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Term Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from
such purchasing Term Lender, such purchase from each Term Lender shall be rescinded and such Term Lender shall repay to the purchasing Term Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Term
Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Term Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Term Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable
by the purchasing Term Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. The Borrowers agree that any Term Lender so purchasing a participation from another Term Lender pursuant to this Section 2.16 may, to the fullest extent permitted by
law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Term Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrowers in the amount of such participation. 

SECTION 2.17. Use of Proceeds of the Loans. The proceeds of the Loans shall be available (and each Borrower agrees that it shall use
such proceeds) for general corporate purposes of Holdings and its Subsidiaries, including, without limitation, for Acquisitions, Capital Expenditures, cash dividends, payment of any of the Obligations, and stock and bond repurchases, all to the
extent not prohibited under the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Alternative Tranche Line of Credit Loans shall be
deemed to have no proceeds to which this covenant shall be applicable. 

SECTION 2.18. Extension of Loans. 

(a) Extension of Term Loans. The Borrowers may at any time and from time to time request that all or a portion of the Term Loans be
amended to extend the termination date with respect to all or a portion thereof (any such Term Loans which have been so amended, “Extended Term Loans”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.18. In order
to establish any Extended Term Loans, the Borrowers shall provide a notice to the Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Term Lenders) (each, a “Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms (which
shall be determined in consultation with the Agent) of the Extended Term Loans to be established, which shall (x) be identical as offered to each Term Lender (including as to the proposed interest rates and fees payable) and offered pro rata to
each Term Lender hereunder, and (y) be identical to the Term Loans hereunder, except that: (i) the maturity date of the Extended Term Loans shall be later than the Termination Date, (ii) payments of interest and fees may be at
different rates on Extended Term Loans (and related outstandings) (iii) the terms of the Extended Term Loans may provide, subject to the consent of the Required Term Lenders (excluding from the calculation thereof, any Term Lenders who decline
to extend their Term Loans) for other or different covenants and terms that apply solely to any period after the Termination Date, or, if earlier, the repayment in full of Term Loans that are not Extended Term Loans, and (iv)(A) reserved;
(B) all repayments of the Term Loans (including Extended Term Loans) shall be made on a pro rata basis (except for (1) payments of interest and fees at different rates on commitments (and related outstandings) in accordance with the rights
of the 

  
 44 

 applicable Class and (2) repayments required upon the maturity date of the Term Loans of any Class); and
(C) reserved; provided, further, that (A) reserved, (B) reserved, (C) in connection with an Extension Request with respect to the Term Loans either (i) the Term Lenders collectively have consented to the
applicable Extension Request with respect to a majority in amount of the Term Loans or (ii) simultaneously with the effectiveness of the maturity extension in respect of the Extended Term Loans, the Term Loans that are not Extended Term Loans
shall be paid in full (the foregoing not being deemed to modify or waive the provisions of Section 2.11 hereof regarding the conditions precedent to repayment of the Term Loans), (D) reserved and (E) all documentation in respect of
such extension shall be consistent with the foregoing. 
 (b) Extension Request. The Borrowers shall provide the applicable Extension
Request at least ten (10) Business Days (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Agent) prior to the date on which the applicable Term Lenders are requested to respond. No Term Lender shall have any obligation to agree to provide any
Extended Term Loan pursuant to any Extension Request. Any Term Lender (each, an “Extending Lender”) wishing to have all or a portion of its Term Loans subject to such Extension Request amended into Extended Term Loan shall notify
the Agent (each, an “Extension Election”) on or prior to the date specified in such Extension Request of the amount of its Term Loans which it has elected to request be amended into Extended Term Loan (subject to any minimum
denomination requirements imposed by the Agent). In the event that the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans in respect of which applicable Term Lenders shall have accepted the relevant Extension Request exceeds the amount of Extended Term Loan
requested to be extended pursuant to the Extension Request, Extension Elections shall be amended to reflect allocations of Term Loans as agreed by Agent and the Borrowers. 

(c) New Lenders. Following any Extension Request made by the Borrowers in accordance with this Section 2.18, if the Term Lenders
shall have declined to agree during the period specified in Section 2.18(b) above to provide Extended Term Loan in an aggregate principal amount equal to the amount requested by the Borrowers in such Extension Request, the Borrowers may request
that banks, financial institutions or other institutional lenders or investors (including any Extending Lender) provide an Extended Term Loan or a commitment to provide an additional term loan tranche hereunder (the “Additional Extending
Lenders”); provided that such Extended Term Loan of such Additional Extending Lenders (i) shall be in an aggregate principal amount for all such Additional Extending Lenders not to exceed the aggregate principal amount of
Extended Term Loan so declined to be provided by the existing Term Lenders and (ii) shall be on identical terms to the terms applicable to the terms specified in the applicable Extension Request (and any Extended Term Loan provided by existing
Term Lenders in respect thereof) and, if a new tranche of term loans is to be incurred including other terms as are customary for a term loan provided that the maturity term for any term loan commitment hereunder shall not be earlier than the
Termination Date; provided further that, as a condition to the effectiveness of any Extended Term Loan or term loan commitment of any Additional Extending Lender, the Agent shall have consented (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or
delayed) to each Additional Extending Lender. Upon the earlier of the Termination Date (including a deemed Termination Date in accordance with clause (C) of the proviso to Section 2.18(a) above) or such earlier date as any declining Term
Lenders may agree), (a) the Term Loans of the applicable declining Term Lenders will be repaid in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Extended Term Loans provided by Additional Extending Lenders and (b) the term loan commitment of
each such Additional Extending Lender will become effective. The Extended Term Loans of Additional Extending Lenders will be incorporated as Term Loans hereunder in the same manner in which Extended Term Loans of existing Term Lenders are
incorporated hereunder pursuant to this Section 2.18. 
 (d) Extension Amendment. Extended Term Loans and term loan commitments
of Additional Extending Lenders shall be established pursuant to an amendment (each, an “Extension Amendment”) to this Agreement among the Borrower, the Agent and each Extending Lender and each Additional Extending Lender, if any,
providing an Extended Term Loan or a term loan commitment as applicable, thereunder, which shall be consistent with the provisions set forth in Sections 2.18(a), (b) and (c) above (but which shall not require the consent of any other
Lender). The effectiveness of any Extension Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof of each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 and, to the extent reasonably requested by the Agent, receipt by the Agent of
legal opinions, board resolutions and officers’ certificates consistent with those delivered on the Effective Date. The Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Extension Amendment. Each of the parties hereto
hereby agrees that this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be amended pursuant to an Extension Amendment, without the consent of any other Lenders, to the extent 

  
 45 

 necessary to (i) reflect the existence and terms of the Extended Term Loans or the term loan commitments as
the case may be, incurred pursuant thereto and (ii) effect such other amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Agent and the Borrowers, to effect the
provisions of this Section. 
 SECTION 2.19. Incremental Term Loans. 

(a) Request for Incremental Term Loan Commitments . Provided no Default or Event of Default then exists or would arise therefrom, upon
notice to the Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders), the Borrowers may make Incremental Term Loan Commitment requests from time to time; provided, however, that (w) no such Incremental Term Loan Commitments may be made
without the consent of the Agent, whose consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, (x) the aggregate amount of all Incremental Term Loan Commitments (including, once funded, all Incremental Term Loans) pursuant to this Section 2.19(a)
shall not exceed $200,000,000, (y) each Incremental Term Loan Commitment request shall be in a minimum amount of $25,000,000, and (z) the Borrowers may request Incremental Term Loan Commitments a maximum of eight separate times. At the
time of sending such notice, the Borrowers (in consultation with the Agent) shall specify the time period within which each existing Term 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). To the extent there is accrued and unpaid interest on the Term Loan outstanding immediately prior to the effectiveness of an Incremental Term Loan Commitment, such interest shall be paid in full (in cash or
by means of a PIK Payment) substantially concurrently with the effectiveness of such Incremental Term Commitment. 
 (b) Lender
Elections. Each Term Lender shall notify the Agent within the time period described in Section 2.19(a) whether or not it agrees to make an Incremental Term Loan Commitment on the terms requested and, if so, in what amount. Any Term Lender
not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to participate, and no Term Lender shall have any obligation to participate. 

(c) Notification by Agent. The Agent shall notify the Borrowers and each existing Term Lender of the Term Lenders’ responses to
each request made under Section 2.19(a). To achieve the full amount of any Incremental Term Loan Commitment request, subject to the approval of the Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), to the extent that the existing Term
Lenders decline to participate, or decline to participate in the full amount requested by the Borrowers, other consenting Eligible Assignees (each an “Additional Commitment Lender”) may become an Incremental Term Lender hereunder
and furnish an Incremental Term Loan Commitment in the amount requested by the Borrowers under Section 2.19(a) and not provided by the existing Term Lenders. 

(d) Conditions to Effectiveness of each Incremental Term Loan Commitment. As a condition precedent to the effectiveness of each
Incremental Term Loan Commitment, (i) the Borrowers shall deliver to the Agent a certificate of each Borrower dated as of the applicable Incremental Effective Date signed by an Authorized Officer of such Borrower (A) certifying and
attaching the resolutions adopted by the board of directors (or other applicable governing body) of such Borrower approving or consenting to such Incremental Term Loan Commitment, and (B) certifying that, before and after giving effect to such
Incremental Term Loan Commitment, the representations and warranties contained in Article V hereof and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Incremental Effective Date, except to the extent
(1) such representations or warranties are qualified by a materiality standard, in which case they shall be true and correct in all respects, and (2) such representations or warranties expressly relate to an earlier date (in which case
such representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date), (ii) the Borrowers, the Agent, each Term Lender providing an Incremental Term Loan Commitment (including each Additional Commitment
Lender, if any) shall have executed and delivered an amendment (each, an “Incremental Amendment”) to this Agreement (which amendment shall not require the consent of any other Lender) in such form as the Agent shall reasonably
require to establish such Incremental Term Loan Commitment; provided, that any Incremental Term Loans made pursuant to such Incremental Term Loan Commitments (A) except as to amortization, final maturity date and participation in
mandatory prepayments (which shall, subject to the other clauses of this proviso, be determined by the Borrower and the Incremental Term Lenders in their sole discretion), shall have (x) the same terms as the Term Loans made on the Effective
Date (or any other Class of Incremental Term Loans) and form part 

  
 46 

 of the same Class as such Term Loans or (y) such other terms as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the
Agent, in which case they shall be part of a separate Class; (B) shall have a maturity date no earlier than the Termination Date, (C) shall, if subject to amortization, not amortize prior to the Termination Date, and (D) may
participate on a pro rata basis or a less than pro rata basis (but not a greater than pro rata basis) than the Term Loans borrowed on the Effective Date in any mandatory or voluntary prepayment hereunder (and shall not otherwise be mandatorily or
voluntarily prepayable); (iii) the Borrowers shall have paid such fees to the Additional Commitment Lenders and the other Term Lenders who agree to provide such Incremental Term Loans, as the Borrowers and such Lenders may agree; (iv) the
Borrowers shall deliver to the Agent and the Term Lenders an opinion or opinions, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent, from counsel to the Borrowers reasonably satisfactory to the Agent and dated such date; and (vi) no
Default or Event of Default shall exist or result therefrom. 
 (e) Effectiveness of Incremental Amendments; Conflicting Provisions.
The Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Incremental Amendment (such date of effectiveness, the “Incremental Effective Date”). Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents may be amended pursuant to an Incremental Amendment, without the consent of any other Lenders, to the extent necessary to (i) reflect the existence and terms of the Incremental Term Loan Commitments and the Incremental Term
Loans incurred pursuant thereto and (ii) effect such other amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Agent and the Borrowers, to effect the provisions of this
Section 2.19. This Section 2.19 shall supersede any provisions in Sections 2.16 or 9.01 to the contrary. 
 SECTION 2.20.
Conversion of Term Loans. 
 (a) Subject to, and upon compliance with, the provisions of this Section 2.20, each Term Lender
shall have the right, at such Term Lender’s option, to convert all or any portion (if the portion to be converted would result in the issuance of at least one whole share of Common Stock upon conversion) of the Term Loan held by such Term
Lender at any time at the Conversion Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except for any Person who beneficially owned more than 4.9% of the Common Stock immediately prior to the Fourth Amendment Effective Date, to the extent that any proposed
conversion of the Term Loan by any Term Lender would result in any Person beneficially owning more than 4.9% of the Common Stock, the Term Loan will not be convertible at the option of such Term Lender to such extent. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
except for any Person who directly or indirectly owned (including by virtue of relevant tax attribution rules) more than 9.9% of the vote or value of the Common Stock (as calculated for purposes of Section 871(h)(3) of the Internal Revenue
Code) immediately prior to the Fourth Amendment Effective Date, to the extent that any proposed conversion of the Term Loan by any Term Lender would result in any non-U.S. Person directly or indirectly owning (including by virtue of relevant tax
attribution rules) more than 9.9% of the vote or value of the Common Stock (as calculated for purposes of Section 871(h)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code), the Term Loan will not be convertible at the option of such Term Lender to such extent.

 (b) To exercise the conversion right with respect to any portion of the Term Loan, the applicable Term Lender must (i) complete and
manually sign a conversion notice in the form attached hereto at Exhibit M (a “Conversion Notice”) or a facsimile of the Conversion Notice; (ii) deliver such signed and completed Conversion Notice, which is irrevocable, to the
Conversion Agent; (iii) if required, furnish appropriate transfer documents; and (iv) if required, pay all transfer or similar governmental charges or duties as set forth in Section 2.20(c). For any portion of the Term Loan, the date on
which the applicable Term Lender satisfies all of the applicable requirements set forth above with respect to such portion of the Term Loan shall be the “Conversion Date” with respect to such portion of the Term Loan. Each
conversion shall be deemed to have been effected as to any portion of the Term Loan designated for conversion at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Conversion Date; provided, however, the Person in whose name any shares of Common Stock
shall be issuable upon conversion, if any, shall be treated as a stockholder of record as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Conversion Date. For the avoidance of doubt, until a Term Lender is deemed to become the holder of record of shares of
Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such Term Lender’s portion of the Term Loan as contemplated in the immediately preceding sentence, such Term Lender shall not have any rights as a holder of the Common Stock with respect to the shares of
Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such portion of the Term Loan. At 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Conversion Date for a portion of the Term Loan, the converting Term Lender shall no longer be the holder of 

  
 47 

 such portion of the Term Loan. Any Conversion Notice shall, unless the shares of Common Stock issuable on
conversion of the applicable portion of the Term Loan are to be issued in the same name as such portion of the Term Loan, be accompanied by instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to Holdings and the Borrowers duly executed by, such Term Lender
or its duly authorized attorney. Upon the conversion of any portion of the Term Loan, the principal amount of the Term Loan shall be reduced by the principal amount of such portion. 

(c) If a Term Lender converts a portion of the Term Loan, Holdings and the Borrowers will pay any documentary, stamp or similar issue or
transfer tax due on the issue of any shares of the Common Stock upon such conversion, unless the tax is due because the applicable Term Lender requests that any shares of Common Stock be issued in a name other than such Term Lender’s name, in
which case such Term Lender will pay any such taxes. The Conversion Agent may refuse to deliver the Common Stock to be issued in a name other than such Term Lender’s name until the Conversion Agent receives a sum sufficient to pay any tax or
duty which will be due because such shares of Common Stock are to be issued in a name other than such Term Lender’s name. Nothing herein shall preclude any tax withholding required by law or regulation. 

(d) Subject to this Section 2.20(d) and Sections 2.20(f) and 2.20(g) hereof, upon conversion of any portion of the Term Loan, Holdings
shall deliver to the applicable Term Lender, in full satisfaction of its conversion obligation under Section 2.20(a) hereof, in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of the Term Loan being converted, a Settlement Amount. The shares of Common
Stock in respect of any conversion of any portion of the Term Loan (the “Settlement Amount”) shall be computed as follows: Holdings shall deliver to the converting Term Lender, in respect of each $1,000 principal amount of any
portion of the Term Loan being converted, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate, rounded down to the nearest whole share pursuant to this Section 2.20(d). Holdings shall deliver the Settlement Amount due in respect of
its conversion obligation under this Section 2.20(d), not later than the second Business Day immediately following the relevant Conversion Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Holdings will not issue fractional shares of Common Stock as part of
the Settlement Amount due with respect to any converted portion of the Term Loan. Instead, if any Settlement Amount includes a fraction of a share of the Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable will be rounded down to the nearest
whole share. If a Term Lender converts a portion of the Term Loan, Holdings will not adjust the Conversion Rate to account for any accrued and unpaid interest on such portion of the Term Loan, and Holdings’ delivery or payment of shares of
Common Stock into which a portion of the Term Loan is convertible will be deemed to satisfy and discharge in full the Borrowers’ obligation to pay the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, such portion of the Term Loan to,
but excluding, the Conversion Date. As a result, except as otherwise provided in the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence, any accrued and unpaid interest with respect to a converted Term Loan will be deemed to be paid in full rather than
cancelled, extinguished or forfeited. Whenever a Conversion Date occurs with respect to any portion of the Term Loan, the Conversion Agent will, as promptly as possible, and in no event later than 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Business Day
immediately following such Conversion Date, deliver to Holdings and the Borrowers notice that a Conversion Date has occurred, which notice will state such Conversion Date, the principal amount of the portion of the Term Loan converted on such
Conversion Date and the name of the Term Lender that converted portion of the Term Loan on such Conversion Date. 
 (e) Holdings shall at all
times reserve out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock a number of shares of Common Stock sufficient to permit the conversion, in accordance herewith, of all of the then-outstanding Term Loan. Any shares of Common Stock delivered
upon the conversion of any portion of the Term Loan will be newly issued shares or treasury shares, duly and validly issued, fully paid, nonassessable, free from preemptive rights and free of any lien or adverse claim (except to the extent of any
lien or adverse claim created by the action or inaction of the converting Term Lender or other Person to whom such shares of Common Stock will be delivered). In addition, Holdings will comply with all federal and state securities laws regulating the
offer and delivery of any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Term Loan. Holdings will also cause any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of a portion of the Term Loan to be listed on whatever stock exchange(s) the
Common Stock is listed on the date the converting Holder becomes a record holder of such Common Stock. If any shares of the Common Stock issued upon conversion will, upon delivery, be “restricted securities” (within the meaning of Rule 144
or any successor provision in effect at such time), such shares of Common Stock (i) will be issued in physical, certificated form; (ii) will not be held in book-entry form through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company or any other
Person designated as depository by Holdings; and (iii) will bear any restrictive legends Holdings or the Conversion Agent deems necessary to comply with applicable law. 

  
 48 

 (f) The Conversion Rate and the Conversion Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time
as follows; provided that if more than one subsection of this Section 2.20(f) is applicable to a single event, the subsection shall be applied that produces the largest adjustment and no single event shall cause an adjustment under more than
one subsection of this Section 2.20(f) so as to result in duplication: 
 (i) Stock Splits, Subdivisions, Reclassifications or
Combinations. If Holdings shall (i) declare and pay a dividend or make a distribution on its Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivide or reclassify the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, or
(iii) combine or reclassify the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the number of Term Loan Shares at the time of the record date for such dividend or distribution or the effective date of such subdivision,
combination or reclassification will be proportionately adjusted so that a Term Lender after such date will be entitled, upon conversion of any portion of the Term Loan, to the number of shares of Common Stock that it would have received in respect
of the number of Term Loan Shares it would have owned on account of such portion of the Term Loan had such portion of the Term Loan been converted immediately prior to such date. The Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the record date
for such dividend or distribution or the effective date of such subdivision, combination or reclassification will be adjusted by multiplying such Conversion Price by the quotient of (x) the number of Term Loan Shares immediately prior to such
adjustment divided by (y) the new number of Term Loan Shares as determined in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence. 

(ii) Other Distributions. In case Holdings shall fix a record date for the making of a distribution to all holders of shares of its
Common Stock of securities, evidences of indebtedness, assets, cash, rights or warrants (excluding dividends of its Common Stock and other dividends or distributions referred to in Section 2.20(f)(i)), in each such case, the Conversion Price in
effect prior to such record date shall be reduced immediately thereafter or at such later date as the Board of Directors may determine for purposes of the determination of Fair Market Value of the distribution (but in any event not later than 10
Business Days after the first date on which the Common Stock trades regular way on the principal national securities exchange on which the Common Stock is listed or admitted to trading without the right to receive such distribution) to the price
determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the reduction by the quotient of (x) the Market Price of the Common Stock on the last Trading Day preceding the first date on which the Common Stock trades regular
way on the principal national securities exchange on which the Common Stock is listed or admitted to trading without the right to receive such distribution, minus the amount of cash and/or the Fair Market Value of the securities, evidences of
indebtedness, assets, rights or warrants to be so distributed in respect of one share of Common Stock divided by (y) such Market Price on such date specified in clause (x). Such adjustment shall be made successively whenever such a record date
is fixed. In such event, the number of Term Loan Shares shall be increased (and the Conversion Rate increased proportionately) to the number obtained by multiplying the Term Loan Shares immediately prior to such adjustment by the quotient of
(x) the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the distribution giving rise to this adjustment divided by (y) the new Conversion Price determined in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence. In the event that such
distribution is not so made, the Conversion Price, Conversion Rate and the number of Term Loan Shares then in effect shall be readjusted, effective as of the date when the Board of Directors determines not to distribute such shares, evidences of
indebtedness, assets, rights, cash or warrants, as the case may be, to the Conversion Price, Conversion Rate and the number of Term Loan Shares that would then be in effect if such record date had not been fixed. 

(iii) Certain Repurchases of Common Stock. In case Holdings effects a Pro Rata Repurchase of Common Stock, then the Conversion Price
shall be reduced to the price determined by multiplying the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the Effective Date of such Pro Rata Repurchase by a fraction of which the numerator shall be (i) the product of (x) the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such Pro Rata Repurchase and (y) the Market Price of a share of Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the first public announcement by Holdings or any of its Affiliates of
the intent to effect such Pro Rata Repurchase, minus (ii) the aggregate purchase price of the Pro Rata Repurchase, and of which the denominator shall be the product of (x) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior
to such Pro Rata Repurchase minus the number of shares of Common Stock so repurchased and (y) the Market Price per share of Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the first public announcement by Holdings of the intent to effect
such Pro Rata Repurchase. In such event, the number of Term Loan Shares shall be increased (and the Conversion Rate increased proportionately) to the number obtained by multiplying the number of Term Loan Shares immediately prior to such adjustment
by the quotient of (x) the Conversion Price in effect immediately 

  
 49 

 prior to the Pro Rata Repurchase giving rise to this adjustment divided by (y) the new Conversion Price
determined in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence. For the avoidance of doubt, no increase to the Conversion Price or decrease in the number of Term Loan Shares (or Conversion Rate) shall be made pursuant to this
Section 2.20(f)(iii). 
 (iv) Business Combinations; Reclassifications of Common Stock. In case of any Business Combination or
any reclassification of Common Stock (other than a reclassification of Common Stock referred to in Section 2.20(f)(i)), the right of a Term Lender to receive shares of Common Stock upon conversion of a portion of the Term Loan shall be
converted into the right to receive the number and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash) upon conversion of a portion of the Term Loan that the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such portion of the Term
Loan immediately prior to such Business Combination or reclassification would have been entitled to receive upon closing of such Business Combination or reclassification. 

(g) Whenever the Conversion Rate and Conversion Price is adjusted, Holdings shall promptly mail, cause to be delivered to the Term Lenders in
accordance with Section 9.02 a notice of the adjustment and file with the Conversion Agent a certificate signed on behalf of Holdings by an Authorized Officer thereof briefly stating the facts requiring the adjustment and the manner of
computing it (such certificate, an “Officer’s Certificate”). The certificate shall be conclusive evidence of the correctness of such adjustment. 

(h) Responsibility of Agent. The Conversion Agent does not have any duty or responsibility to calculate the Conversion Price, Conversion
Rate or Term Loan Shares or to determine when an adjustment under this Section 2.20 should be made, how it should be made or what such adjustment should be, but may accept as conclusive evidence of the correctness of any such adjustment, and
shall be protected in relying upon, the Officer’s Certificate with respect thereto which Holdings is obligated to file with the Conversion Agent pursuant to Section 2.20(g) hereof. The Conversion Agent does not make any representation as
to the validity or value of any securities or assets issued upon conversion of any portion of the Term Loan, and the Conversion Agent shall not be responsible for the failure by Holdings to comply with any provisions of this Section 2.20 and
Section 2.21. The Conversion Agent shall not be responsible for any failure of Holdings to make any cash payment or to issue, transfer or deliver any shares of Common Stock or stock or share certificates or other securities or property upon the
surrender of any portion of the Term Loan for the purpose of conversion; and the Conversion Agent shall not be responsible or liable for any failure of Holdings to comply with any of the covenants of Holdings contained in Sections 2.20 or 2.21.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Conversion Agent shall not be under any responsibility to determine the correctness of any provisions contained in any Officer’s Certificate delivered in connection with this
Section 2.20 or Section 2.21 relating either to the kind or amount of shares of stock or securities or other property or assets (including cash) receivable by Term Lenders upon the conversion of any portion of their Term Loan after any
event referred to in Section 2.20(f) or to any adjustment to be made with respect thereto, but may accept as conclusive evidence of the correctness of any such provisions, and shall be protected in relying upon, the Officer’s Certificate
which Holdings shall be obligated to deliver pursuant to Section 2.20(g). 
 (i) Holdings and the Borrowers shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to retain a Person reasonably acceptable to each of Holdings, the Borrowers and the Agent to act as agent for the purpose of converting the Term Loan in accordance with the terms of Sections 2.20 and 2.21 (the “Conversion
Agent”) reasonably promptly following the Fourth Amendment Effective Date; provided that if such Person is not retained within 10 Business Days of the date hereof, the Agent shall have the option to act as the Conversion Agent. 

SECTION 2.21. Mandatory Conversion of Term Loans. 

(a) Holdings and the Borrowers may elect at their option to cause all (but not less than all) of the Term Loan to be mandatorily converted (the
“Mandatory Conversion”) within 30 days following the end of any 30 consecutive Trading Day period, ending on or after July 2, 2018, during which the volume weighted average trading price of the Common Stock on the NASDAQ Global
Select Market (or any successor market thereto) exceeds $10.00 for a period of 20 Trading Days (any such 30 consecutive Trading Day period, a “Mandatory Conversion Trigger Period”). The volume-weighted average trading price
referenced in the preceding sentence will be calculated by Holdings and the Borrowers and the Conversion Agent shall not have any duty to confirm or verify, or in any case, be responsible for, the calculation by Holdings and the Borrowers. 

  
 50 

 (b) In order to exercise the Mandatory Conversion pursuant to Section 2.21(a), Holdings and
the Borrowers or, at the written request and expense of Holdings and the Borrowers, the Conversion Agent on behalf of Holdings and the Borrowers, shall deliver to each Term Lender a notice (a “Mandatory Conversion Notice”) of
exercise of the Mandatory Conversion within five Business Days after the end of the Mandatory Conversion Trigger Period (the date such Mandatory Conversion Notice is sent to the Term Lenders in the manner herein provided, the “Mandatory
Conversion Notice Date”). Holdings and the Borrowers will select the date on which the Term Loan will be converted pursuant to the Mandatory Conversion, which shall be not more than 30 calendar days after the Mandatory Conversion Trigger
Period concludes (such date, the “Mandatory Conversion Date”). Holdings and the Borrowers shall also deliver a copy of such Mandatory Conversion Notice to the Conversion Agent concurrently with the delivery thereof to the Term
Lenders to the extent that the Conversion Agent does not deliver such Mandatory Conversion Notice on behalf of Holdings and the Borrowers. If such Mandatory Conversion Notice is to be given by the Conversion Agent, Holdings and the Borrowers shall
prepare and provide the form and content of such Mandatory Conversion Notice to the Conversion Agent at least three Business Days prior to the date the notice will be delivered to the Term Lenders (or such later date as the Conversion Agent may
approve). The Mandatory Conversion Notice, if sent in the manner provided in Section 9.02, shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not any Term Lender receives such Mandatory Conversion Notice. 

(c) The Mandatory Conversion Notice shall state: 

(i) the Mandatory Conversion Notice Date; 

(ii) the Mandatory Conversion Trigger Period; 

(iii) the aggregate principal amount of Term Loan to be mandatorily converted; 

(iv) the Mandatory Conversion Date; 

(v) the Conversion Rate and Conversion Price then in effect; and 

(vi) that on and after the Mandatory Conversion Date interest on the Term Loan to be converted will cease to accrue. 

(d) Each Term Lender agrees to take the following actions prior to the Mandatory Conversion Date in respect of its Term Loan subject to a
Mandatory Conversion: (i) if required, furnish appropriate transfer documents; (ii) pay any transfer or other tax, if required by Section 2.20(d); and (iii) any other action necessary to effectuate the Mandatory Conversion as may
be reasonably requested by Holdings. In the event that a Term Lender does not take any of the actions set forth in the immediately preceding sentence prior to the Mandatory Conversion Date, each Term Lender authorizes and directs Holdings to take
any action on such holder’s behalf to effectuate the Mandatory Conversion and appoints Holdings as such holder’s attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. 

(e) Holdings will deliver to the Term Lenders, not later than the third Business Day immediately following the Mandatory Conversion Date for
any portion of the Term Loan, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the product of (A)(x) the aggregate principal amount of such portion of the Term Loan to be converted divided by (y) $1,000 and (B) the Conversion Rate in effect on
such Conversion Date, rounded down to the nearest whole number. Upon the Mandatory Conversion Date, unless Holdings defaults in delivering or paying the amounts due pursuant to the foregoing sentence, interest on the Term Loan so called for the
Mandatory Conversion shall cease to accrue and the holders thereof shall have no right in respect of such portion of the Term Loan except the right to receive the shares of Common Stock and cash, if any, to which they are entitled pursuant to this
Section 2.21. Upon a conversion pursuant to this Section 2.21, the Person in whose name such shares of Common Stock will be registered will become the holder of record of such shares of Common Stock at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the
Mandatory Conversion Date for such portion of the Term Loan. 

  
 51 

 (f) If any of the provisions of this Section 2.21 are inconsistent with applicable law at
the time of such Mandatory Conversion, such law shall govern.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 

SECTION 5.01. Representations and Warranties of the Borrowers. Holdings and the Borrowers hereby jointly and severally represent and
warrant as follows: 
 (a) Each Loan Party (i) is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the
jurisdiction of its organization and (ii) is in compliance with all Requirements of Law except to the extent that the failure to comply therewith could not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

(b) The execution, delivery and performance by each Loan Party of the Loan Documents to which it is a party, and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, are within such Loan Party’s powers, have been duly authorized by all necessary organizational action, and do not contravene (i) the charter or by-laws or other organizational or governing
documents of such Loan Party or (ii) law or any contractual restriction binding on or affecting any Loan Party, except, for purposes of this clause (ii), to the extent such contravention would not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect. 
 (c) No authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority or
regulatory body or any other third party is required for the due execution, delivery and performance by any Loan Party of any Loan Document to which it is a party that has not already been obtained if the failure to obtain such authorization,
approval or other action could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (d) Each Loan Document has been duly
executed and delivered by each Loan Party party thereto. This Agreement constitutes, and each other Loan Document will constitute upon execution, the legal, valid and binding obligation of each Loan Party party thereto enforceable against such Loan
Party in accordance with its respective terms subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or moratorium or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and subject to general principles of equity
(regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding at law or in equity). 
 (e) The consolidated balance sheet of Holdings and its
Subsidiaries as at January 30, 2017, and the related consolidated statements of income and cash flows of Holdings and its Subsidiaries for the fiscal year then ended, accompanied by an opinion of Deloitte & Touche LLP, independent
public accountants, copies of which have been furnished to the Agent, fairly present the consolidated financial condition of Holdings and its Subsidiaries as at such date and the consolidated results of the operations of Holdings and its
Subsidiaries for the period ended on such date, all in accordance with GAAP consistently applied. 
 (f) Since January 30, 2016, there
has been no event or circumstance, either individually or in the aggregate, that has had or would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

(g) There is no action, suit, investigation, litigation or proceeding, including any Environmental Action, which is pending or, to Holdings or
any Borrower’s knowledge, threatened affecting Holdings, the Borrowers or any of their respective Subsidiaries before any court, Governmental Authority or arbitrator that would, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect other than as reported in filings with the SEC made prior to the date hereof. 
 (h) On the Effective Date and
the date on which any Loans are borrowed, not more than five (5%) percent of the value of the assets of the Borrowers and their respective Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis will be margin stock (within the meaning of Regulation U issued by
the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System). 

  
 54 

 (i) No Loan Party is an “investment company”, or a company “controlled” by an
“investment company”, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. 
 (j) All United States Federal income
tax returns and all other material tax returns which are required to be filed have been filed by or on behalf of Holdings, the Borrowers and their respective Subsidiaries, and all taxes due with respect to Holdings, the Borrowers and their
respective Subsidiaries pursuant to such returns or pursuant to any assessment received by Holdings, the Borrowers or any Subsidiary have been paid except to the extent permitted in Section 6.01(b). The charges, accruals and reserves on the
books of Holdings, the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries in respect of taxes or other governmental charges have been made in accordance with, and to the extent required by, GAAP. 

(k) All written factual information heretofore furnished by Holdings, the Borrowers or their Subsidiaries to the Agent or any Lender (including
the Perfection Certificate) for purposes of or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, taken as a whole, was true and correct in all material respects on the date as of which such information was stated or certified,
provided that with respect to projected financial information, the Loan Parties represent only that such information was prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable at the time. 

(l) (i) Each Loan Party has title in fee simple to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all its real property, and good title to, or a valid
leasehold interest in, all its other property necessary for the conduct of its business and except as, in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and (ii) no Inventory, Credit Card Account Receivable, DC or
Related Intellectual Property is subject to any Lien except as permitted by Section 6.02(a). 
 (m) Except as, in the aggregate, would
not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect: (i) each Loan Party owns, or is licensed to use, all Intellectual Property necessary for the conduct of its business as currently conducted; (ii) no material claim has been
asserted and is pending by any Person challenging or questioning the use of any Intellectual Property or the validity or effectiveness of any Intellectual Property, nor do Holdings or the Borrowers know of any valid basis for any such claim; and
(iii) the use of Intellectual Property by each Group Member does not infringe on the rights of any Person in any material respect. 

(n) Except as disclosed in the publicly available reports of Holdings filed with the SEC prior to the Effective Date or as would not reasonably
be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, (i) neither a Reportable Event nor a failure to meet minimum required contributions (in accordance with Section 430 or any prior applicable section of the Internal Revenue Code or
Section 302 of ERISA) has occurred during the five year period prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made with respect to any Plan, (ii) each Plan is in compliance with the applicable provisions of ERISA, the
Internal Revenue Code and other applicable federal or state laws, and (iii) no termination of a Single Employer Plan has occurred. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.01(n), no Lien imposed under the Internal Revenue Code or ERISA exists
on account of any Plan, and no Lien in favor of the PBGC or a Plan has arisen, during such five-year period ending on the Effective Date. Each Single Employer Plan that is intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code
has received a favorable determination letter from the United States Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) and, to the best knowledge of Holdings and the Borrowers, nothing has occurred which would cause the loss of, such
qualification. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.01(n) or as would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, the Loan Parties and each ERISA Affiliate have made all required contributions to each Plan subject to
Section 430 of the Internal Revenue Code, and no application for a funding waiver or an extension of any amortization period pursuant to Section 430 of the Internal Revenue Code has been made with respect to any Plan. There are no pending

prohibited transaction or violation of the fiduciary duty rules with respect to any Plan that has resulted or could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur, in
each case that would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Neither any Loan Party nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred, or would reasonably be expected to incur, any liability under Title IV of ERISA with respect to any
Pension Plan, other than premiums due and not delinquent under Section 4007 of ERISA or as would not reasonably be expected to have a 

  
 55 

 Material Adverse Effect; neither any Loan Party nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred, or reasonably expects to
incur, any liability (and, to the knowledge of the Borrowers, no event has occurred which, with the giving of notice under Section 4219 of ERISA, would result in such liability) under Sections 4201 or 4243 of ERISA with respect to a
Multiemployer Plan except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; and neither any Loan Party nor any ERISA Affiliate has engaged in a transaction that would reasonably be expected to be subject to Sections 4069 or
4212(c) of ERISA. Except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, neither Holdings, the Borrowers nor any Commonly Controlled Entity has had a complete or partial withdrawal (as such terms are defined in Sections 4203
and 4205 of ERISA, respectively) from any Multiemployer Plan that has resulted or would reasonably be expected to result in a liability under ERISA. No such Multiemployer Plan is in Reorganization or Insolvent except as would not reasonably be
expected to result in aggregate liability to Holdings and its Subsidiaries of $100,000,000 or more. 
 (o) Except as, individually or in the
aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, no Group Member (i) has failed to comply with any Environmental Law or to obtain, maintain or comply with any permit, license or other approval required under
any Environmental Law, (ii) has become subject to any Environmental Liability, (iii) has received notice of any claim with respect to any Environmental Liability or (iv) knows of any basis for any Environmental Liability. 

(p) The Security Agreement is effective to create in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Credit Parties, a legal, valid and
enforceable security interest in the Collateral described therein and proceeds thereof. Financing statements and other filings specified in Schedule 5.01(p) in appropriate form have been filed in the offices set forth on Schedule 5.01(p). On the
Effective Date, the security interests granted pursuant to the Security Agreement shall, to the extent a security interest in such Collateral can be perfected by filing a UCC financing statement, constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security
interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in such Collateral and the proceeds thereof, as security for the Obligations, in each case prior and superior in right to the Lien or claim of any other Person (except Liens permitted by
Section 6.02(a) securing Priority Obligations and/or the Existing Second Lien Notes and Liens which by operation of law would have priority over the Liens securing the Obligations). 

(q) The Loan Parties, taken as a whole, are, and after giving effect to the incurrence of all Debt and obligations incurred in connection
herewith will be, Solvent. 
 (r) The properties of the Loan Parties are insured as required pursuant to Section 6.01(c) hereof. Each
insurance policy required to be maintained by the Loan Parties pursuant to Section 6.01(c) is in full force and effect and all premiums in respect thereof that are due and payable have been paid. 

(s) As of the Effective Date: (1) except as listed on Schedule 5.01(s), there are no outstanding rights to purchase any equity interests
in any Subsidiary of a Loan Party, and (2) the copies of the organization and governing documents of each Loan Party and each amendment hereto provided pursuant to Section 4.01 are true and correct copies of each such document, each of
which is valid and in full force and effect. 
 (t) As of the Effective Date, except as would not reasonably be expected to have individually
or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect, (a) there are no strikes, lockouts, slowdowns or other material labor disputes against any Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereof pending or, to the knowledge of Holdings or any Borrower,
threatened, (b) the hours worked by and payments made to employees of the Loan Parties comply with the Fair Labor Standards Act and any other applicable federal, state, local or foreign law dealing with such matters, (c) all payments due
from any Loan Party and its Subsidiaries, or for which any claim may be made against any Loan Party, on account of wages and employee health and welfare insurance and other benefits, have been paid or properly accrued in accordance with GAAP as a
liability on the books of such Loan Party. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.01(t) (as updated by the Borrowers from time to time) (i) no Loan Party or any Subsidiary is a party to or bound by any collective bargaining agreement,
management agreement or any material bonus, restricted stock, stock option, or stock appreciation plan or agreement or any similar plan, agreement or arrangement (excluding in each case individual employment agreements) and (ii) no employee of
a Loan Party is also an employee of the Permitted Holder. There are no representation proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of Holdings or any Borrower, threatened to be filed with the National Labor Relations Board, and no labor organization or
group of 

  
 56 

 employees of any Loan Party or any Subsidiary has made a pending demand for recognition, in each case which would
individually or in the aggregate reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. There are no complaints, unfair labor practice charges, grievances, arbitrations, unfair employment practices charges or any other claims or complaints
against any Loan Party or any Subsidiary pending or, to the knowledge of Holdings or any Borrower, threatened to be filed with any Governmental Authority or arbitrator based on, arising out of, in connection with, or otherwise relating to the
employment or termination of employment of any employee of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries which would, individually or in the aggregate, be reasonably expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The consummation of the transactions
contemplated by the Loan Documents will not give rise to any right of termination or right of renegotiation on the part of any union under any collective bargaining agreement to which any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries is bound, except as
would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (u) No broker or finder brought

Act, as amended, and each of the foreign assets control regulations of the United States Treasury Department (31 C.F.R., Subtitle B, Chapter V, as amended) and any other enabling legislation or executive order relating thereto, (ii) the PATRIOT
Act, (iii) the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, and (iv) the Corruption of Foreign Public Officials Act, as amended (the “FCPA”). No part of the proceeds of any credit extensions will be used, directly or, to
the Loan Parties’ knowledge, indirectly, for any payments to any governmental official or employee, political party, official of a political party, candidate for political office, or anyone else acting in an official capacity, in order to
obtain, retain or direct business or obtain any improper advantage, in violation of the FCPA. 
 (x) None of Holdings, the Borrowers, nor any
of their respective Subsidiaries, nor, to the knowledge of the Borrowers, any director, officer, employee, agent or affiliate of the Borrowers is an individual or entity (for purposes of this clause (x), a “Person”) that is, or is

Majesty’s Treasury or other applicable sanctions authority or (B) pursuant to the U.S. Iran Sanctions Act, as amended, or Executive Order 13590 (collectively, “Sanctions”) or (C) located, organized or resident in a country
or territory that is, or whose government is, the subject of Sanctions (including, without limitation, Burma/Myanmar, Iran, North Korea, Sudan and Syria). The Loan Parties will not, directly or, to their knowledge, indirectly, use the proceeds of
any credit extensions, or lend, contribute or otherwise make available such proceeds to any Subsidiary, joint venture partner or other Person in any manner that would directly or indirectly result in a violation of Sanctions by any Person. 

(y) As of the First Amendment Effective Date, each Person that has provided a
guarantee of any First Lien Credit Agreement Obligations is a Guarantor hereunder and has executed the Security Agreement as a “Grantor” thereunder (as such term is defined in the Security Agreement).

Affirmative Covenants. So long as any Loan or other Obligation (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim shall have then been asserted) shall remain unpaid or any Term Lender shall have any Commitment hereunder,
each of Holdings and the Borrowers will, and will cause each of their Subsidiaries to: 

  
 57 

 (a) Compliance with Laws, Etc. Comply in all respects with all applicable Requirements of
Law, such compliance to include compliance with ERISA and Environmental Laws, except for such non-compliance as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

(b) Payment of Taxes, Etc. Pay and discharge before the same shall become delinquent, (i) all taxes, assessments and governmental
charges or levies imposed upon it or upon its property (ii) all payments required to be made to any Pension Plan, and (iii) all lawful claims that, if unpaid, might by law become a Lien upon its property; provided that neither
Holdings, the Borrowers nor any of their Subsidiaries shall be required to pay or discharge any such tax, assessment, charge or claim (x) that is being contested in good faith and by proper proceedings and as to which appropriate reserves are
being maintained, unless and until any Lien resulting therefrom attaches to its property and becomes enforceable against its other creditors or (y) if such non-payments, either individually or in the aggregate, would not be reasonably expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (c) Maintenance of Insurance. Maintain insurance with responsible and reputable insurance
companies or associations in such amounts and covering such risks as is consistent with prudent business practice; provided that Holdings, the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries may self-insure to the extent consistent with prudent business practice;

with the Loan Parties’ past practices, or (y) another selling price permitted by the Agent in its Permitted Discretion. None of the Credit Parties shall be a co-insurer with any Loan Party or any other Person with respect to any fire and
extended coverage policies maintained with respect to any Collateral without the prior written consent of the Agent. Within thirty (30) days following delivery of written notice from the Agent to Holdings, Holdings shall notify the insurers and
use commercially reasonable efforts to have such policies amended to include such other provisions as the Agent may reasonably require from time to time to protect the interests of the Credit Parties. Holdings shall cause the Agent to be named as an
additional insured party on such policies within thirty (30) days following the Effective Date (or such longer period as the Agent may agree to in its reasonable discretion). The Borrowers shall deliver to the Agent, prior to the cancellation,
modification or non-renewal of any such policy of insurance, evidence of renewal or replacement of a policy previously delivered to the Agent, including an insurance binder therefor, together with evidence satisfactory to the Agent of payment of the
premium therefor and, upon request of the Agent, a copy of such renewal or replacement policy. In the event that the Borrowers fail to maintain any such insurance as required pursuant to this Section 6.01(c), the Agent may obtain such insurance
on behalf of the Borrowers and the Loan Parties shall reimburse the Agent as provided herein for all costs and expenses in connection therewith; the Agent’s obtaining of such insurance shall not be deemed a cure or waiver of any Default or
Event of Default arising from the Loan Parties’ failure to comply with the provisions of this Section 6.01(c). 
 (d)
Preservation of Corporate Existence, Etc. Preserve and maintain its corporate existence, material rights (charter and statutory) and franchises; provided that (i) Holdings, the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries may consummate any
merger or consolidation permitted under Section 6.02(b); (ii) neither Holdings nor the Borrowers nor any of their Subsidiaries shall be required to preserve or maintain the corporate existence of any Subsidiary (other than Sears, SRAC,
Kmart Corp. or any Material Subsidiary Guarantors) if the Board of Directors of the parent of such Subsidiary, or an executive officer of such parent to whom such Board of Directors has delegated the requisite authority, shall determine that the
preservation and maintenance thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of such parent and that the loss thereof is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Borrowers, Sears, any Material Subsidiary Guarantor, such
parent or the Lenders; (iii) Sears shall not be required to preserve or maintain the corporate existence of SRAC, provided that in the event SRAC is dissolved, merged with or into Holdings or any Subsidiary of Holdings or otherwise ceases to
exist, then Sears shall or shall cause a direct wholly owned Domestic Subsidiary of Sears to, execute and deliver to the Agent an assumption agreement with respect to SRAC’s obligations under the Loan Documents in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Agent and such other officer certificates, legal opinions, financing statements (if applicable) and documentation as the Agent reasonably requests; (iv) none of Holdings, the Borrowers or any of Material Subsidiary
Guarantors shall be required to preserve any right or franchise of any Subsidiary (other than a Material Subsidiary Guarantor) if the Board of Directors of Holdings, such Borrower or such Material Subsidiary Guarantor shall determine that the
preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of its business and that the loss thereof is not disadvantageous in any material respect to Holdings, the Borrowers, such Material Subsidiary Guarantor or the Lenders and (v) no
Subsidiary Guarantor which is not a Material Subsidiary Guarantor shall be required to preserve or maintain its corporate existence if (A) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and (B) such Subsidiary Guarantor is
merged or liquidated into another Subsidiary Guarantor. 

  
 58 

 (e) Inspection Rights. Subject to reasonable confidentiality limitations and requirements
imposed by Holdings or the Borrowers due to competitive concerns or otherwise, at any reasonable time and from time to time (but no more than twice a year unless a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), permit the Agent or
any of the Lenders or any agents or representatives thereof, at the Lenders’ expense, to examine and make copies of and abstracts from the records and books of account of, and visit the properties of, Holdings, the Borrowers and any of their
Subsidiaries, and to discuss the affairs, finances and accounts of Holdings, the Borrowers and any of their Subsidiaries, as the case may be, with any of their officers or directors and with their independent certified public accountants. 

(f) Keeping of Books. Keep proper books of record and account, in which full and correct entries shall be made of all financial
transactions and the assets and business of Holdings, the Borrowers and each such Subsidiary in accordance with GAAP in effect from time to time.

ordinary wear and tear excepted. 
 (h) Transactions with Affiliates. Conduct all transactions otherwise permitted under this
Agreement with any of their Affiliates on terms that are fair and reasonable and no less favorable to Holdings, the applicable Borrower or their respective Subsidiaries than it would obtain in a comparable arm’s-length transaction with a Person
not an Affiliate other than (i) as required by any applicable Requirement of Law, (ii) so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, transactions between or among the Loan Parties and any of their Subsidiaries,
to the extent not prohibited hereunder, or (iii) if a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, transactions in the ordinary course of business between or among the Loan Parties and any of their Subsidiaries and transactions

herein, including the filing of Uniform Commercial Code financing statements in such jurisdictions as may be required by the Security Documents or by law or as may be requested by the Agent or the Collateral Agent; provided, however, that
notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Borrowers shall not be required to deliver any blocked account agreement, deposit account control agreement or similar agreement, or provide any notices to any credit card processor or
third-party payors (nor shall the Agent provide any such notice). 
 (ii) With respect to any new Domestic Subsidiary (other than any Credit
Card Royalty Securitization Subsidiary) which is created or acquired after the Effective Date by any Group Member and which owns any Inventory, Credit Card Accounts Receivable and other Collateral related to such receivables and Inventory, or which

Commercial Code financing statements in such jurisdictions as may be required by the Security Agreement or by law or as may be reasonably requested by the Agent, (iv) if requested by the Agent, deliver to the Agent an officer’s certificate

(as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act, except that a person or group shall be deemed to have “beneficial ownership” of all securities that such person or group has the right to acquire (such right, an “option
right”), whether such right is exercisable immediately or only after the passage of time), directly or indirectly, of 35% or more of the equity securities of Holdings entitled to vote for members of the Board of Directors of Holdings on a
fully-diluted basis (and taking into account all such securities that such person or group has the right to acquire pursuant to any option right) and such “person” or “group” shall beneficially own (as such term is used herein) a
greater percentage of the equity Securities of Holdings entitled to vote for members of the Board of Directors than the Permitted Holders shall, collectively, beneficially own; or (ii) during any period of 12 consecutive months, a majority of
the members of the Board of Directors or other equivalent governing body of Holdings cease to be composed of individuals (x) who were members of that board or equivalent governing body on the first day of such period, (y) whose election or
nomination to that board or equivalent governing body was approved by individuals referred to in clause (x) above constituting at the time of such election or nomination at least a majority of that board or equivalent governing body or
(z) whose election or nomination to that board or other equivalent governing body was approved by individuals referred to in clauses (x) and (y) above constituting at the time of such election or nomination at least a majority of that
board or equivalent governing body; or (iii) Holdings shall cease for any reason to own, directly or indirectly, 100% of the Voting Stock of Sears and Kmart; or

 (h) (i) Any Borrower or any of its ERISA Affiliates shall incur, or shall be reasonably likely to
incur liability in excess of $100,000,000 in the aggregate as a result of one or more of the following: (i) the occurrence of any ERISA Event; (ii) the partial or complete withdrawal of such Borrower or any of its ERISA Affiliates from a
Multiemployer Plan; or (iii) the reorganization or termination of a Multiemployer Plan; or (iv) the PBGC shall have filed a notice of Lien; or 

(i) Any of the Security Documents shall cease, for any reason, to be in full force and effect, or any Loan Party shall so state in writing, or
any Lien created by any of the Security Documents shall cease to be enforceable and of the same effect and priority purported to be created thereby, including as a result of the failure to comply with Section 4.4 of the Security Agreement; or

 (j) The guarantees contained in Article X hereof shall cease, for any reason, to be in full force and effect or any Loan Party shall so
state in writing; 
 then, and in any such event, the Agent may, or, at the request of the Required Lenders shall, take any or all of the following actions
upon notice to the Borrowers: (i) Reserved; and (ii) declare the Loans, all interest thereon and all other amounts payable under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon the Loans, all such
interest and all such amounts shall become and be forthwith due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or further notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the
BorrowersLoan Parties; provided, however, that in the event of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to any
BorrowerLoan Party under the United States Bankruptcy Code, (A) Reserved and (B) the Loans, all such interest and all such amounts shall automatically become and be due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or
any notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the
BorrowersLoan Parties. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
this Agreement, if (A) an Event of Default under Section 7.01(a) with respect to any Alternative Tranche Line of Credit Loan shall have occurred and be continuing or (B) there is a failure to comply with Section 9.01(b), the
Required Alternative Tranche Line of Credit Lenders (or their duly appointed representative) may, without any consent of, notice to or other action by the Agent or any other
Lender, (i)
declare the Alternative Tranche Line of Credit Loans, all interest thereon and all other amounts payable in respect thereof under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon the Alternative Tranche Line of
Credit Loans, all such interest and all such amounts shall become and be forthwith due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or further notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Loan Parties, and
(ii) initiate and prosecute an independent action to collect any such amount from the Loan Parties. 

It is understood and agreed that if the Term Loans are accelerated pursuant to this Section 7.01 for any reason, including without limitation
because of the commencement of any insolvency proceeding or other proceeding pursuant to any debtor relief laws, the premium payable pursuant to Section 2.05(b) (the “Term Loan Prepayment Premium”) determined as of the date of
acceleration will also be due and payable as though the 2016 Term Loans were voluntarily prepaid as of such date and shall
constitute part of the Obligations in respect of the Term Loans, in view of the impracticability and extreme difficulty of ascertaining actual damages and by mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable calculation of each Term Lender’s
lost profits as a result thereof. Any Term Loan Prepayment Premium payable in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence shall be presumed to be the liquidated damages sustained by each Term Lender as the result of the early termination and
the Loan Parties agree that it is reasonable under the circumstances currently existing. The Term Loan Prepayment Premium shall also be payable in the event the Term Loans are satisfied or released by foreclosure (whether by power of judicial
proceeding or otherwise) or deed in lieu of foreclosure. EACH LOAN PARTY EXPRESSLY WAIVES THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE FOREGOING PREMIUM IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH
ACCELERATION INCLUDING IN CONNECTION WITH ANY VOLUNTARY OR INVOLUNTARY ACCELERATION OF THE TERM LOANS PURSUANT TO ANY INSOLVENCY PROCEEDING OR OTHER PROCEEDING PURSUANT TO ANY DEBTOR RELIEF LAWS. Each Loan Party expressly agrees that: (A) the

  
 69 

 Term Loan Prepayment Premium is reasonable and is the product of an arm’s length transaction between
sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel; (B) the Term Loan Prepayment Premium shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made; (C) there has been a course of conduct between
Term Lenders and the Loan Parties giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the Term Loan Prepayment Premium; and (D) the Loan Parties shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in
this paragraph. Each Loan Party expressly acknowledges that its agreement to pay the Term Loan Prepayment Premium to the Term Lenders as herein described is a material inducement for the Term Lenders to provide the Term Commitment and provide the
Term Loans. 
 ARTICLE VIII 

THE AGENT 
 SECTION 8.01.
Appointment. EachSubject to the second
paragraph of Section 7.01 with respect to the independent rights of the Alternative Tranche Line of Credit Lenders, each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints JPP, LLC, a Delaware
limited liability company, as Agent, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and each such Lender irrevocably authorizes the Agent, in such capacity, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. For
clarity, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, no consent of the Lenders shall be required to amend this Agreement or the Loan Documents to (i) cause additional assets to become
Collateral or to add additional Subsidiaries as guarantors of the Obligations, or (ii) implement the provisions of Sections 2.18, 8.12 or 9.13(c), and the Agent and the Loan Parties shall be entitled to execute any and all amendments necessary
or desirable to accomplish any of the foregoing and such amendments shall be binding on the other parties hereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities,
except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be
read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Agent. 
 SECTION 8.02. Delegation of
Duties. The Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and the other Loan 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 Agent
shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. 
 SECTION
8.03. Exculpatory Provisions. No Agent (for purposes of this Article VIII, “Agent” and “Agents” shall mean the collective reference to the Agent and any other Lender designated as an “Agent” for
purposes of this Agreement nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates shall be (i) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection
with this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except to the extent that any of the foregoing are found by a final and non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from its or such Person’s own gross negligence
or willful misconduct) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any Loan Party or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or
in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Agents under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness,
enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any failure of any Loan Party that is a party thereto to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Agents shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to
ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Loan Party. 

SECTION 8.04. Reliance by Agent. The Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any instrument,
writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by them to be genuine and 

  
 70 

 
correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to Holdings or the Borrowers), independent
accountants and other experts selected by the Agent. The Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the
Agent. The Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as they deem appropriate or they
shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting,
or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and
all future holders of Loans. 
 SECTION 8.05. Notice of Default. The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the
occurrence of any Default or Event of Default unless the Agent has received notice from a Lender, Holdings or a Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of
default”. In the event that the Agent receives such a notice, the Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders. The Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required
Lenders; provided that unless and until the Agent shall have received such directions, the Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it
shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders. 
 SECTION 8.06. Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders. Each Lender
expressly acknowledges that neither the Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Agent hereafter taken, including any review
of the affairs of a Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the
Agent, or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan
Parties and their affiliates and made its own decision to make the Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent 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 analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation
as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their Affiliates. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be
furnished to the Lenders by the Agent hereunder, the Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise),
prospects or creditworthiness of any Loan Party or any Affiliate of a Loan Party that may come into the possession of the Agent or the Collateral Agent or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or
affiliates. 
 SECTION 8.07. Reports and Financial Statements. By signing this Agreement, each Lender: 

(a) Reserved; 
 (b) is deemed to
have requested that the Agent furnish such Lender, promptly after they become available, copies of all financial statements and reports required to be delivered by the Loan Parties hereunder and all commercial finance examinations and appraisals of
the Collateral received by the Agent (collectively, the “Reports”) (which the Agent agrees to so deliver); 
 (c) expressly
agrees and acknowledges that the Agent makes no representation or warranty as to the accuracy of the Reports, and shall not be liable for any information contained in any Report; 

  
 71 

 (d) expressly agrees and acknowledges that the Reports are not comprehensive audits or
examinations, that the Agent or any other party performing any audit or examination will inspect only specific information regarding the Loan Parties and will rely significantly upon the Loan Parties’ books and records, as well as on
representations of the Loan Parties’ personnel; 
 (e) agrees to keep all Reports confidential in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement; and 
 (f) without limiting the generality of any other indemnification provision contained in this Agreement, agrees:
(i) reserved; and (ii) to pay and protect, and indemnify, defend, and hold the Agent and any such other Lender or Person preparing a Report harmless from and against, the claims, actions, proceedings, damages, costs, expenses, and other
amounts (including reasonable attorney costs) incurred by the Agent and any such other Lender or Person preparing a Report as the direct or indirect result of any third parties who might obtain all or part of any Report through the indemnifying
Lender. 
 SECTION 8.08. Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not
reimbursed by Holdings or the Borrowers and without limiting the obligation of Holdings or the Borrowers to do so), ratably according to their respective Pro Rata Shares in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section
(or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Loans shall have been paid in full, in accordance with such Pro Rata Shares immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or after the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent in any way relating to or
arising out of, the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan 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 such 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 that
are found by a final and non-appealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other
amounts payable hereunder. 
 SECTION 8.09. Agent in Its Individual Capacity. Each Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept
deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with any Loan Party as though such Agent were not an Agent. With respect to Loans made by it, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include each Agent in its individual capacity. 

SECTION 8.10. Successor Agent. 

(a) The Agent may resign as Agent upon 30 days’ notice to the Lenders and the Borrowers. If the Agent shall resign as Agent under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent shall (unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing) be subject to
approval by the Borrowers (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Agent, and the term “Agent” shall mean such successor agent
effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or
any holders of Loans. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Agent by the date that is 30 days following a retiring Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective,
and the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Agent hereunder, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. After any retiring Agent’s resignation as Agent, the provisions
of this Article VIII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

 SECTION 8.11. Reserved. 

SECTION 8.12. Defaulting Lenders. 

(a) Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then,
until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law: 
 (i) Waivers and
Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders” and this
Section 8.12. 
 (b) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Agent
for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VII or otherwise) or received by the Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 9.05 shall be applied at such time or times as
may be determined by the Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Agent hereunder; second, as the Borrowers may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any
Extension of Credit in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Agent; third, if so determined by the Agent and the Borrowers, to be held in a deposit account
and released pro rata in order to satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Extensions of Credit under this Agreement; fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Non-Defaulting Lenders as a
result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth, so long as no Default or Event of
Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrowers as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrowers against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its
obligations under this Agreement; and sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction. 
 (c)
Consents. If a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, in addition to the rights and remedies that may be available to the other Credit Parties, the Loan Parties or any other party at law or in equity, and not in limitation thereof, except
as set forth in the last sentence hereof, such Defaulting Lender’s right to participate in decision-making rights related to the Obligations in respect of Required Lender or Required Term Lender votes, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents
shall be suspended during the pendency of such failure or refusal. Notwithstanding anything else provided herein, any amendment, waiver determination, consent or notification under Section 9.01 that would (i) reduce the principal amount of
the Loan made by such Defaulting Lender, (ii) alter the terms and conditions of this sentence or (iii) otherwise disproportionately affect a Defaulting Lender, will require the consent of such Defaulting Lender. 

(d) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrowers and the Agent agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Agent
will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrowers while that Lender
was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party
hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

the Communications to such Lender by email or telecopier. Each Lender agrees (i) to notify the Agent in writing of such Lender’s e-mail address to which a Notice may be sent by electronic transmission (including by electronic

such e-mail address. 
 SECTION 9.03. No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of any Lender or the Agent to exercise, and no
delay in exercising, any right hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other
right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

(including printing, distribution and bank meetings), transportation, computer, duplication, appraisal, consultant, and audit expenses, (B) reserved, and (C) the reasonable 

  
 75 

 fees and expenses of counsel for the Agent with respect thereto and with respect to advising the Agent as to
their rights and responsibilities under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Holdings and the Borrowers further jointly and severally agree to pay on demand all costs and expenses of the Agent and the Lenders, if any (including reasonable
counsel fees and expenses), in connection with the enforcement of, or protection of their rights under, (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the other documents to be
delivered hereunder, including reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel for the Agent, and one counsel for the Lenders in connection with the enforcement of or protection rights under this Section 9.04(a). 

(b) Holdings and the Borrowers jointly and severally agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Agent and each Lender and each of their
Affiliates and their officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of
counsel) incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party, in each case arising out of or in connection with or by reason of (including in connection with any investigation, litigation or proceeding or preparation of a defense in
connection therewith) (i) this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, any of the transactions contemplated herein or therein or the actual or proposed use of the Loans, and (ii) the actual or alleged presence of Hazardous Materials on any
property of Holdings, the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries or any Environmental Action relating in any way to Holdings, the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries, except to the extent such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense is found in
a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity
in this Section 9.04(b) applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by Holdings, any Borrower, its directors, equityholders or creditors or an Indemnified Party or any other
Person, whether or not any Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated. Holdings and the Borrowers also agree not to assert any claim for special, indirect, consequential or
punitive damages against the Agent, any Lender, any of their Affiliates, or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, attorneys and agents, on any theory of liability, arising out of or otherwise relating to this Agreement, the other
Loan Documents, any of the transactions contemplated herein or the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Loans. 
 (c) If
(i) any payment of principal of, or Conversion of, any Eurodollar Rate Advance is made by any Borrower to or for the account of a Lender other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance, as a result of a payment or Conversion
pursuant to Section 2.09(d) or (e), 2.11 or 2.13, acceleration of the maturity of the Term Loan pursuant to Section 7.01 or for any other reason, or by an Eligible Assignee to a Lender other than on the last day of the Interest Period for
such Advance upon an assignment of rights and obligations under this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.07 as a result of a demand by any Borrower pursuant to Section 9.07(a), or (ii) any Borrower fails to prepay, borrow, continue or
convert any Eurodollar Rate Advance on the date or in the amount notified by any Borrower; the applicable Borrower shall, promptly after notice by such Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the calculations used to quantify such amount (with a
copy of such notice to the Agent), pay to the Agent for the account of such Lender any amounts required to compensate such Lender for any additional losses, costs or expenses that it may reasonably incur as a result of such payment or Conversion,
including any loss (including loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by any Lender to fund or maintain such Advance. For purposes of calculating amounts
payable by the Borrowers to the Lenders under this Section 9.04(c), each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurodollar Rate Advance made by it at the Eurodollar Rate for such Advance by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the
London interbank market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurodollar Rate Advance was in fact so funded. 

(d) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of Holdings or any Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of Holdings
and the Borrowers contained in Sections 2.12, 2.15 and 9.04 shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. 

  
 76 

 (e) If (i) any payment of principal of any Eurodollar Rate Line of Credit Loan is made by
any Borrower to or for the account of any Line of Credit Lender other than on the applicable Line of Credit Loan Maturity Date for such Line of Credit Loan, as a result of a payment pursuant to Section 2.11 or 2.13, acceleration of the maturity
of such Line of Credit Loan pursuant to Section 7.01 or for any other reason, or by an Eligible Assignee to a Line of Credit Lender other than on the last day of the applicable Line of Credit Loan Maturity Date for such Line of Credit Loan upon
an assignment of rights and obligations under this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.07 as a result of a demand by any Borrower pursuant to Section 9.07(a), or (ii) any Borrower fails to prepay or borrow any Eurodollar Rate Line of
Credit Loan on the date or in the amount notified by any Borrower; the applicable Borrower shall, promptly after notice by such Line of Credit Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the calculations used to quantify such amount (with a copy of
such notice to the Agent), pay to the Agent for the account of such Line of Credit Lender any amounts required to compensate such Line of Credit Lender for any additional losses, costs or expenses that it may reasonably incur as a result of such
payment, including any loss (including loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by any Line of Credit Lender to fund or maintain such Line of Credit Loan.
For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrowers to the Line of Credit Lenders under this Section 9.04(e), each Line of Credit Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurodollar Rate Line of Credit Loan made by it at the
Eurodollar Rate for such Line of Credit Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London interbank market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurodollar Rate Line of Credit Loan was in fact so funded.

 SECTION 9.05. Right of Set-off. Upon (i) the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and (ii) the
making of the request or the granting of the consent specified by Section 7.01 to authorize the Agent to declare the Extensions of Credit due and payable pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.01, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is
hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time
owing by such Lender or such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of Holdings or any Loan Party against any and all of the obligations of Holdings and the Loan Parties now or hereafter existing under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents
and the Extensions of Credit of such Lender, whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify Holdings or the applicable Loan Party (with a copy to the
Agent) after any such set-off and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of each Lender and its Affiliate under this Section are in addition to
other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) that such Lender and its Affiliate may have. 
 SECTION 9.06. Binding

any Loan Party is liable hereunder, shall become effective, nor shall any representation herein be deemed to be made, until the satisfaction of such conditions.

(iii) each such assignment with respect to any Class of rights and obligations shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to such Class, (iv) except in the case of
an assignment to a Person that, immediately prior to such assignment, was a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of all of a Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, the amount of the Loan of the
assigning Lender being assigned pursuant to each such assignment (determined as of the date of the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment) shall in no event be less than $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess
thereof (or, if

Acceptance, relinquish its rights (other than its rights under Section 2.12, 2.15 and 9.04 to the extent any claim thereunder relates to an event arising prior such assignment) and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in
the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto). 

(b) In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective
unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be
outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or sub-participations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Agent, the applicable Pro Rata Share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the
Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest

extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts); 

(c) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.12 or payments
required to be made pursuant to Section 2.15, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;

waiver or consent can be effected as a result of such assignment (together with all other assignments required by the Agent to be made pursuant to this paragraph); and 

(d) such assignment does not conflict with applicable laws. 

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or
otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrowers to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. 
 SECTION 9.17. No
Advisory or Fiduciary Capacity. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby, the Loan Parties each acknowledge and agree that: (i) the credit facility provided for hereunder and any related arranging or other

Credit Parties, on the other hand, and each of the Loan Parties is capable of evaluating and understanding and understands and accepts the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents (including

any of the Credit Parties has advised or is currently advising any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates on other matters) and none of the Credit Parties has any obligation to any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates with respect to the transactions
contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; (iv) the Credit Parties and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ

provided and will not provide any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby (including any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document) and each of the
Loan Parties has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate. Each of the Loan Parties hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that it may have
against each of the Credit Parties with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty.

 (e) No
payment made by any of the Borrowers, any of the Guarantors, any other guarantor or any other Person or received or collected by the Agent or any other Credit Party from any of the Borrowers, any of the Guarantors, any other guarantor or any other
Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or application at any time or from time to time in reduction of or in payment of any of the Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the
liability of any Guarantor hereunder which shall, notwithstanding any such payment (other than any payment made by such Guarantor in respect of any of the Obligations or any payment received or collected from such Guarantor in respect of any of the
Obligations), remain liable for the Obligations up to the maximum liability of such Guarantor hereunder until each of the Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim shall have then been asserted) are paid in
full. 
 SECTION 10.02. Right of Contribution. Each Guarantor (other than Holdings) hereby agrees that to the extent that a Guarantor
(other than Holdings) shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder, such Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Guarantor (other than Holdings) hereunder which has
not paid its proportionate share of such payment. Each Guarantor’s (other than Holdings’) right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 10.03. The provisions of this Section 10.02 shall in no
respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Guarantor to the Agent and the other Credit Parties, and each Guarantor shall remain liable to the Agent and the other Credit Parties for the full amount guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder.
This Section 10.02 shall not apply to Sears in its capacity as a Guarantor of the Obligations of SRAC, or to Kmart in its capacity as a Guarantor of the Obligations of Kmart Corp. 

SECTION 10.03. No Subrogation. Notwithstanding any payment made by any Guarantor hereunder or any set-off or application of funds of
any Guarantor by the Agent or any other Credit Party, no Guarantor shall be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Agent or any other Credit Party against any Borrower or any other Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or
right of offset held by the Agent or any other Credit Party for the payment of any of the Obligations, nor shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution, reimbursement or indemnification from any Borrower or any other Guarantor in
respect of payments made by such Guarantor hereunder, and notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any Guarantor possesses any such rights of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement or indemnification, all such rights shall in all respects
be subordinated and junior in right of payment, until (other than with respect to subrogation claims that would otherwise be held by Holdings) all amounts owing to the Agent and the other Credit Parties by each of the Borrowers on account of its
Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim shall have then been asserted) are paid in full. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such subrogation, contribution, reimbursement or
indemnification rights at any time when any of the Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim shall have then been asserted) shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by such Guarantor in
trust for the Agent and the other Credit Parties, segregated from other funds of such Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Guarantor, be transferred as the Agent directs in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly indorsed by
such Guarantor to the Agent, if required), to be applied against the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the Agent may determine. 

  
 83 

 SECTION 10.04. Amendments, etc. with Respect to Obligations. Each Guarantor shall
remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against any Guarantor and without notice to or further assent by any Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Obligations made by the Agent or any other Credit
Party may be rescinded by the Agent or such other Credit Party and any of the Obligations continued, and any of the Obligations, or the liability of any other Person upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or
right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Credit Party, and
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Agent (or the Required Lenders or all Lenders, as
the case may be) or any other Credit Party, if applicable, may deem advisable from time to time, and any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Agent or any other Credit Party for the payment of any of the
Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. Neither the Agent nor any other Credit Party shall have any obligation to any Loan Party or other Person, to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by it as
security for any of the Obligations or for the guarantee contained in this Article X or any property subject thereto. 
 SECTION 10.05.
Guarantee Absolute and Unconditional. 
 (a) Each Guarantor waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual
of any of the Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Agent or any other Credit Party upon the guarantee contained in this Article X or acceptance of the guarantee contained in this Article X; each of the Obligations, and any of them,
shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Article X; and all dealings between any of the Borrowers and any of the Guarantors,
on the one hand, and the Agent and the other Credit Parties, on the other hand, likewise shall be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Article X. Each Guarantor waives diligence,
presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon any of the Borrowers or any of the Guarantors with respect to any of the Obligations. Each Guarantor understands and agrees that the guarantee contained in this
Article X shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to (i) the validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other document made, delivered or given in
connection with any of the foregoing, any of the Obligations or any other collateral security therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the Agent or any other Credit Party, (ii) any
defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by any Borrower or any other Person against the Agent or any other Credit Party, or (iii) any other
circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of any Borrower or such Guarantor) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of any of the Borrowers for the Obligations, or of such
Guarantor under the guarantee contained in this Article X, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. When making any demand hereunder or otherwise pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against any Guarantor, the Agent or any other Credit Party
may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on or otherwise pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against the Borrowers, any other Guarantor or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee for any of
the Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Agent or any other Credit Party to make any such demand, to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from any of the Borrowers, any other
Guarantor or any other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of any Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or any such collateral security, guarantee or
right of offset, shall not relieve any Guarantor of any obligation or liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Agent or any other Credit Party
against any Guarantor. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings. 

(b) The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of the Agent or any
other Credit Party to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other document made, delivered or given in connection with any of the foregoing or any other agreement, by any default,
failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of any of the Obligations, or by any other act or omission that may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or that would otherwise operate as a discharge of
any Guarantor as a matter of law or equity (other than upon a written release of such Guarantor from the Agent or upon the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all the Obligations). 

  
 84 

 (c) The Agent and the other Credit Parties may, at their election upon the occurrence and during
the continuance of an Event of Default, foreclose on any Collateral held by one or more of them by one or more judicial or non-judicial sales, accept an assignment of any such Collateral in lieu of foreclosure, compromise or adjust any part of the
Obligations, make any other accommodation with any Guarantor, or exercise any other right or remedy available to them against any Guarantor, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any other Guarantor hereunder except to the
extent that all the Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim shall have then been asserted) have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash. Each Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any such election even
though such election operates, pursuant to applicable law, to impair or to extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of such Guarantor against any other Guarantor, as the case may be, or any Collateral. 

SECTION 10.06. Reinstatement. The guarantee contained in this Article X shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case
may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Agent or any other Credit Party upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization
of any Borrower or any Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, any Borrower or any Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as
though such payments had not been made. 
 SECTION 10.07. Payments. Each Guarantor hereby guarantees that payments hereunder will be
paid without set-off or counterclaim in Dollars, to such account as the Agent may designate in accordance with Section 9.02 of this Agreement. 

SECTION 10.08. Additional Guarantors. Each Subsidiary of the Borrowers that is required to become a party to this Agreement pursuant to
Section 6.01(i) shall become a Guarantor for all purposes of this Agreement upon execution and delivery by such Subsidiary of a joinder to this Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit J hereto. 

SECTION 10.09. Releases. At the request and sole expense of the Borrowers, the Agent shall release any Guarantor from its obligations
hereunder, including, without limitation, its obligations pursuant to Article X hereof, and shall execute and deliver to the Borrowers all releases or other documentation reasonably necessary or desirable to evidence such release, in the event that
all the equity interest of such Guarantor shall be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of in a transaction permitted by this Agreement and/or in the event that such Guarantor shall dispose of all or substantially all of its assets and shall
cease to own any Collateral. 
 SECTION 10.10. Additional Line of Credit Lenders. Each Person that desires to become a party to this
Agreement in order to make a Line of Credit Loan shall become a Line of Credit Lender for all purposes of this Agreement upon execution and delivery by such prospective Line of Credit Lender of a joinder to this Agreement substantially in the form
of Exhibit K hereto.
