Second Amendment to 2006 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan of Old Dominion

 Exhibit 10.20.3 

SECOND AMENDMENT TO 
 2006 NONQUALIFIED DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN 
 OF OLD DOMINION FREIGHT LINE, INC.

 This Second Amendment to the 2006 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan of Old Dominion Freight Line, Inc. (the
“Second Amendment”) is made and entered into with an effective date of November 10, 2011. Defined terms used in the 2006 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Plan of Old Dominion Freight Line, Inc., effective January 1, 2006 and as
restated and effective January 1, 2009 (as amended and restated, the “Plan”) shall have the same meaning therein as herein. 
 RECITALS 
 Old Dominion Freight Line, Inc. (the “Employer”) has
established the Plan; and 
 The Employer wishes to amend the Plan pursuant to Section 11 thereof to add a new
Section 2.33, amend Section 4.9, and add a new Section 4.12 to the Plan; and 
 The Employer wishes to evidence
these changes by this Second Amendment. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, the Plan is hereby amended by this Second Amendment as follows:

 1. There is hereby added a new Section 2.33 as follows: 

“2.33 “Six Month Delay Date” shall mean the date that is six (6) months after a Specified Employee’s Separation
from Service.” 
 2. Section 4.9 is amended to read as follows: 

“4.9 Payment to Specified Employees: Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan or in a Participant or Employer payment
election, the Plan may not make payment based on Separation from Service earlier than six (6) months following Separation from Service (or if earlier, upon the Participant’s death) to a Participant who, on the date of Separation from
Service is a Specified Employee, except as permitted under this Section 4.9. This limitation applies regardless of the Participant’s status as a Specified Employee as long as the Participant was a Specified Employee on the date of his or
her Separation from Service. Any payments that would be payable to the Participant as installment payments shall be paid in accordance with Section 4.12. This Section 4.9 does not apply to payments made on account of a domestic relations
order, payments made because of a conflict of interest, or payment of employment taxes, all as described in Treas. Reg. §1.409A-3(i)(2)(i).” 
 3. There is hereby added a new Section 4.12 as follows: 

 “4.12 Participant and Specified Employee Installment Payments: At all times with
respect to an amount deferred, the right to a series of installment payments is to be treated as a right to a series of separate payments over one or more predetermined periods. A series of installment payments means, with respect to each
predetermined period, an entitlement to the payment of a series of substantially equal periodic amounts to be paid over a predetermined period of years, except to the extent that any increase (or decrease) in the amount reflects reasonable earnings
(or losses) through the date the amount is paid. For this purpose, a series of installment payments over a predetermined period and a series of installment payments over a shorter or longer period, or a series of installment payments over the same
predetermined period but with a different commencement date, are different times and forms of payment. A change in the predetermined period or the commencement date is a change in time and form of payment. An installment payment does not fail to be
an installment solely because this Plan provides for an immediate payment of all remaining installments if the present value of the deferred amount to be paid in the remaining installment payments falls below a predetermined amount, and the
immediate payment of such amount does not constitute an accelerated payment for the purposes of Treas. Reg. §1.409A-3(j), provided that such feature including the predetermined amount is established by no later than the time that the time and
form of payment is otherwise required to be established, and provided further that any change in this feature including the predetermined amount is a change in the time and form of payment. 
 With respect to Participants who are not Specified Employees, the first installment payment shall be determined and paid no later than twenty-five (25) days following completion of the second
Adjustment Date after the date of the Participant’s Separation from Service. The amount of each subsequent installment payment shall be determined no later than twenty-five (25) days following each anniversary of the second Adjustment Date
after the date of the Participant’s Separation from Service and such payment shall be made on each anniversary of the date of the first installment payment until the expiration of the predetermined period. This determination and payment
mechanic shall continue for the predetermined period of years chosen by the Participant until the total amount due to the Participant has been fully paid. 
 With respect to Participants who are Specified Employees, no installment payments may be made until after the Six Month Delay Date. Following completion of the second Adjustment Date after the Six Month
Delay Date, but no later than twenty-five (25) days after the completion of the second Adjustment Date, the first installment payment shall be determined and paid to the Specified Employee. The amount of each subsequent installment payment
shall be determined no later than twenty-five (25) days following each anniversary of the second Adjustment Date after the Six Month Delay Date and such payment shall be made on each anniversary of the date of the first installment payment
until the expiration of the predetermined period. This determination and payment mechanic shall continue for the predetermined period of years chosen by the Specified Employee until the total amount due to the Specified Employee has been fully
paid.” 
 4. This Second Amendment shall be effective as of November 10, 2011. 

5. Except as set forth herein, the Plan shall be unchanged and shall remain in full force and effect.

at the time of incurrence thereof the aggregate principal amount of the Commitment, if any, of such Lender at such time; (iv) can be incurred in no more than four (4) separate Borrowings (without giving effect to Conversions and
Continuations) during the Commitment Period; (v) once repaid or prepaid may not be re-borrowed, and (vi) at no time shall there be more than six (6) Borrowings of Eurodollar Loans outstanding hereunder. 

Section 2.03 Notice of Borrowing. 
 (a) Time of Notice. Each Borrowing shall be made upon notice in the form provided for below which shall be provided by the Borrower to the Agent at its Notice Office not later than (i) in the
case of each Borrowing of a Eurodollar Loan, 11:00 A.M. (local time at its Notice Office), at least three Business Days prior to the date of such Borrowing, and (ii) in the case of each Borrowing of a Base Rate Loan, prior to 11:00 A.M. (local
time at its Notice Office) on the proposed date of such Borrowing. 
 (b) Notice of Borrowing. Each request for a
Borrowing shall be made by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower requesting such Borrowing by delivering written notice of such request substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto (each such notice, a “Notice of Borrowing,
Continuation or Conversion”) or by telephone (to be confirmed immediately in writing by delivery by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower of a Notice of Borrowing, Continuation or Conversion), and in any event each such request shall be
irrevocable and shall specify (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Loans to be made pursuant to such Borrowing, (ii) the date of the Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), (iii) the Type of Loans such Borrowing will consist
of, and (iv) if applicable, the initial Interest Period. Without in any way limiting the obligation of the Borrower to confirm in writing any telephonic notice permitted to be given hereunder, the Agent may act prior to receipt of written
confirmation without liability upon the basis of such telephonic notice believed by the Agent in good faith to be from an Authorized Officer of the Borrower entitled to give telephonic notices under this Agreement on behalf of the Borrower. In each
such case, the Agent’s record of the terms of such telephonic notice shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 (c)
Minimum Borrowing Amount. The aggregate principal amount of each Borrowing by the Borrower shall not be less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount. 
 (d) Maximum Borrowings. More than one Borrowing may be incurred by the Borrower on any day; provided, however, that if there are two or more Borrowings on a single day by the Borrower that
consist of Eurodollar Loans, each such Borrowing shall have a different initial Interest Period.

 Section 2.04 Funding Obligations; Disbursement of Funds. 

(a) Several Nature of Funding Obligations. The Commitments of each Lender hereunder and the obligation of each Lender to make
Loans are several and not joint obligations. No Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in its obligation to make Loans or fund any participation hereunder and each Lender shall be obligated to make the Loans provided to be
made by it and fund its participations required to be funded by it hereunder, regardless of the failure of any other Lender to fulfill any of its Commitments hereunder. Nothing herein and no subsequent termination of the Commitments pursuant to
Section 2.09 shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its commitments hereunder and in existence from time to time or to prejudice any rights that the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default
by such Lender hereunder. 
 (b) Funding Obligations. All Loans shall be made on a pro rata basis based upon each
Lender’s Fixed Commitment Percentage of the amount of such Borrowing. 
 (c) Notice to Lenders. The Agent shall
promptly give each Lender written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of each proposed Borrowing, or Conversion or Continuation thereof, and of such Lender’s proportionate share thereof and of the other matters covered
by the Notice of Borrowing, Continuation or Conversion, as the case may be, relating thereto. 
 (d) Funding of Loans. No
later than 2:00 P.M. (local time at the Payment Office) on the date specified in each Notice of Borrowing, Continuation or Conversion, each Lender will make available its pro rata share, if any, of each Borrowing requested to be made on such
date to the Agent at the Payment Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds and the Agent promptly will make available to the Borrower by depositing to its account at the Payment Office (or such other account as the Borrower shall specify)
in the aggregate of the amounts so made available. 
 Section 2.05 Evidence of Obligations. 

(a) Notes. The obligation of the Borrower to pay the principal of, and interest on, the Loans made to it by each Lender shall be
evidenced, if so requested by the applicable Lender, by a promissory note of the Borrower substantially in the form of Exhibit A (each a “Note” and, collectively, the “Notes”). Upon the request of any Lender,
the Note issued to such Lender shall: (i) be executed by the Borrower; (ii) be payable to the order of such Lender and be dated on or prior to the date of the initial Borrowing; (iii) be payable in the principal amount of Loans
evidenced thereby; (iv) be payable and mature on the Maturity Date; (v) bear interest as provided in Section 2.06 in respect of the Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Loans, as the case may be, evidenced thereby; (vi) be subject to
mandatory prepayment as provided in Section 2.10; and (vii) be entitled to the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
 (b) Loan Accounts of Lenders. Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the Obligations of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each
Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. 
 (c) Loan Accounts of Agent; Lender Register. The Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan and Borrowing made hereunder, the Type thereof, the Interest
Period and the applicable interest rate, (ii) the amount of any principal due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder, (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Agent hereunder for the account
of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof, and (v) the other details relating to the Loans to be made hereunder. In addition, the Agent shall, for its benefit and on behalf of the Borrower, maintain at its address referred to in
Section 11.04 a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register (the “Lender Register”) on or in which it will record the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments from time to time of each
of the Lenders. The Agent will make the Lender Register available to any Lender or the Company upon its request. 

  
 25 

 (d) Effect of Loan Accounts, etc. The entries made in the accounts maintained
pursuant to Sections 2.05(b) and (c) shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the Obligations recorded therein, provided, that the failure of any Lender or the Agent to maintain such accounts or any error
(other than manifest error) therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of any Credit Party to repay or prepay the Loans or the other Obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 

Section 2.06 Interest; Default Rate 
 (a) Interest on Loans. The outstanding principal amount of each Loan made by each Lender shall bear interest at a rate per annum that shall at all times be equal to (i) during such periods as
such Loan is a Base Rate Loan, a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the Base Rate in effect from time to time plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans in effect from time to time, and (ii) during such periods as such Loan is a Eurodollar
Loan, a fixed rate per annum equal to the relevant Adjusted Eurodollar Rate for such Eurodollar Loan for the applicable Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Loans in effect from time to time. 

(b) Default Interest. Notwithstanding the above provisions, if an Event of Default is in existence, upon written notice by the
Agent (which notice the Agent shall give at the direction of the Required Lenders), all outstanding amounts of principal and, to the extent permitted by law, all overdue interest, in respect of each Loan shall bear interest, payable on demand, at a
rate per annum equal to the Default Rate. In addition, if any amount payable by any Borrower under the Loan Documents is not paid when due, upon written notice by the Agent (which notice the Agent shall give at the direction of the Required
Lenders), such amount shall bear interest, payable on demand, at a rate per annum equal to 2% per annum above the interest rate that is or would be applicable from time to time pursuant to Section 2.06(a)(i) above. 

(c) Accrual and Payment of Interest Interest shall accrue from and including the date of any Borrowing to but excluding the date
of any prepayment or repayment thereof and shall be payable by the Borrower: (i) in respect of each Base Rate Loan, quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, (ii) in respect of each
Eurodollar Loan, on the last day of each Interest Period applicable thereto and, in the case of an Interest Period in excess of three months, on the dates that are successively three months after the commencement of such Interest Period, and
(iii) in respect of all Loans, on any repayment, prepayment, Continuation or Conversion (on the amount repaid, prepaid, Continued or Converted), at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise), and, after such maturity, on demand (each such
date referred to in clauses (i) through (iii), an “Interest Payment Date”). 
 (d) Computations of
Interest and Discounts. All computations of interest on Eurodollar Loans hereunder shall be made on the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days and all computations of interest on Base Rate Loans hereunder shall be made on the
actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable. 
 (e) Information as to Interest Rates. The
Agent upon determining the interest rate for any Borrowing shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders thereof. 

Section 2.07 Conversion and Continuation of Loans. 
 (a) Conversion and Continuation of Loans. The Borrower shall have the right, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, to (i) Convert all or a portion of the outstanding principal
amount of Loans of one Type made to it into a Borrowing or Borrowings of another Type of Loan that can be 

  
 26 

 
made to it pursuant to the Credit Facility and (ii) Continue a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans at the end of the applicable Interest Period as a new Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans with a new
Interest Period; provided, however, that any Conversion of Eurodollar Loans into Base Rate Loans shall be made on, and only on, the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurodollar Loans. 

(b) Notice of Continuation and Conversion. Each Continuation or Conversion of a Loan shall be made upon notice in the form
provided for below provided by the Borrower to the Agent at its Notice Office not later than (i) in the case of each Continuation of or Conversion into a Eurodollar Loan, prior to 11:00 A.M. (local time at its Notice Office), at least
three Business Days prior to the date of such Continuation or Conversion, and (ii) in the case of each Conversion to a Base Rate Loan, prior to 11:00 A.M. (local time at its Notice Office), on the proposed date of such Conversion. Each
such request shall be made by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower delivering a Notice of Borrowing, Continuation or Conversion or by telephone (to be confirmed immediately in writing by delivery by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower of a Notice
of Borrowing, Continuation or Conversion), and in any event each such request shall be irrevocable and shall specify (A) the Borrowings to be Continued or Converted, (B) the date of the Continuation or Conversion (which shall be a Business
Day), and (C) the Interest Period or, in the case of a Continuation, the new Interest Period. Without in any way limiting the obligation of the Borrower to confirm in writing any telephonic notice permitted to be given hereunder, the Agent may
act prior to receipt of written confirmation without liability upon the basis of such telephonic notice believed by the Agent in good faith to be from an Authorized Officer of the Borrower entitled to give telephonic notices under this Agreement on
behalf of the Borrower. In each such case, the Agent’s record of the terms of such telephonic notice shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 Section 2.08 Fees. 
 (a) Commitment Fees. The Company agrees to
pay to the Agent, for the ratable benefit of each Non-Defaulting Lender based upon each such Lender’s Fixed Commitment Percentage of the Total Commitment, as consideration for the Commitments of the Lenders, commitment fees (the
“Commitment Fees”) for the period from the Closing Date to, but not including, the last day of the Commitment Period, computed for each day at a rate per annum equal to (i) the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate in effect on such
day times (ii) the Unutilized Total Commitment in effect on such day. Accrued Commitment Fees shall be due and payable in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, with the final payment on the last
Business Day of March, 2013 for the period ending on the last day of the Commitment Period. 
 (b) [Reserved] 

(c) Agent Fees. The Company shall pay to the Agent, on the Closing Date and thereafter, for its own account, the fees set forth in
the Agent Fee Letter. 
 (d) Computations of Fees. All computations of Fees hereunder shall be made on the actual number
of days elapsed over a year of 360 days, unless based on the Base Rate, in which case they shall be calculated on the basis of a 365 or 366 day year, as applicable, for the actual days elapsed. 

Section 2.09 Termination and Reduction of Commitments. 

(a) Mandatory Termination of Commitments. The Total Commitments shall terminate on the last day of the Commitment Period.

  
 27 

 (b) Voluntary Reduction of Commitments. Upon at least three (3) Business
Days’ prior irrevocable written notice (or telephonic notice confirmed in writing) to the Agent at its Notice Office (which notice the Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the Lenders), the Borrower shall have the right to partially and
permanently reduce the Unutilized Total Commitment, provided that: 
 (i) any such reduction shall apply
to proportionately and permanently reduce the Commitments of each of the Lenders; and 
 (ii) any partial
reduction of the Unutilized Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.09 shall be in the amount of at least $10,000,000 (or, if greater, in integral multiples of $10,000,000). 

Section 2.10 Payments and Prepayments of Loans. 
 (a) Voluntary Prepayments. The Borrower shall have the right to prepay any of the Loans owing by it, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty (except as specified in subpart (d)
below), from time to time. The Borrower making such prepayment shall give the Agent at the Notice Office written or telephonic notice (in the case of telephonic notice, promptly confirmed in writing if so requested by the Agent) of its intent to
prepay the Loans, the amount of such prepayment and (in the case of Eurodollar Loans) the specific Borrowing(s) pursuant to which made, which notice shall be received by the Agent by (x) 11:00 A.M. (local time at the Notice Office) three
Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment, in the case of any prepayment of Eurodollar Loans, or (y) 11:00 A.M. (local time at the Notice Office) one Business Day prior to the date of such prepayment, in the case of any prepayment
of Base Rate Loans, and which notice shall promptly be transmitted by the Agent to each of the affected Lenders; provided, however, that (i) in the case of prepayment of any Borrowings, each partial prepayment of any such Borrowing shall
be in an aggregate principal of at least $5,000,000 (or, if less, the full amount of such Borrowing), or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; (ii) no partial prepayment of any Loans made pursuant to a Borrowing shall reduce the
aggregate principal amount of such Loans outstanding pursuant to such Borrowing to an amount less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount applicable thereto; and (iii) each prepayment in respect of any Loans shall, unless otherwise specified by the
Borrower, be applied to repay such Loans in accordance with Section 2.11(b). 
 (b) Scheduled Repayments and Mandatory
Prepayments. The Loans shall be subject to mandatory repayment or prepayment in accordance with the following provisions: 
 (i) Scheduled Repayments of Loans. On the last day of each fiscal quarter, beginning May 4, 2013, the Borrower shall make a principal payment on the Loans in an amount equal to 2.5% multiplied
by the outstanding principal amount of the Loans as of the last day of the Commitment Period with the remaining outstanding amounts due on the Maturity Date (each such repayment, a “Scheduled Repayment”); and 

(ii) Maturity. Unless Continued or Converted in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the principal amount of each
Eurodollar Loan shall be payable by the Borrower on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Eurodollar Loan. The entire principal amount of all outstanding Loans owing by the Borrower shall be repaid in full on the Maturity Date.

 (c) Particular Loans to be Prepaid. With respect to each repayment or prepayment of Loans required by this Section,
the Borrower making such repayment or prepayment shall designate the Types of Loans that are to be repaid or prepaid and the specific Borrowing(s) pursuant to which such repayment or prepayment is to be made; provided, however, that
(i) the Borrower shall first so designate all Loans that are Base Rate Loans and Eurodollar Loans with Interest Periods ending on the date of repayment or prepayment prior to designating any other Eurodollar Loans for repayment or prepayment,
(ii) if the outstanding principal amount of Eurodollar Loans made pursuant to a Borrowing is reduced below the 

  
 28 

 
applicable Minimum Borrowing Amount as a result of any such repayment or prepayment, then all the Loans outstanding pursuant to such Borrowing shall, in the case of Eurodollar Loans, be Converted
into Base Rate Loans and (iii) each repayment and prepayment of any Loans made pursuant to a Borrowing shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.11(b). In the absence of a designation by the Borrower as described in the preceding
sentence, the Agent shall, subject to the above, make such designation in its sole discretion with a view, but no obligation, to minimize breakage costs owing under Article III. 

(d) Breakage and Other Compensation. Any prepayment made pursuant to this Section shall be accompanied by any amounts payable in
respect thereof under Article III hereof. 
 Section 2.11 Method and Place of Payment. 

(a) Generally. All payments made by the Borrower hereunder, under any Note or any other Loan Document, shall be made without
setoff, counterclaim or other defense. 
 (b) Application of Payments. Except as specifically set forth elsewhere in this
Agreement and subject to Section 8.03, (i) all payments and prepayments of Loans shall be applied by the Agent for the ratable benefit of the Lenders entitled thereto (based on each such Lender’s Payment Sharing Percentage at the time
of such payment) to pay or prepay such Loans, (ii) all payments of Fees shall be applied as set forth in Section 2.08, and (iii) with respect to any other amounts, such amounts shall be distributed by the Agent for the ratable account
of the Lenders entitled thereto in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
 (c) Payment of Obligations. All
payments under this Agreement with respect to any of the Obligations shall be made to the Agent on the date when due and shall be made at the Payment Office in immediately available funds and shall be made in Dollars. 

(d) Timing of Payments. Any payments under this Agreement that are made later than 11:00 A.M. (local time at the Payment
Office) shall be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding
Business Day and, with respect to payments of principal, interest shall be payable during such extension at the applicable rate in effect immediately prior to such extension. 
 (e) Distribution to Lenders. Upon the Agent’s receipt of payments hereunder, the Agent shall immediately distribute to each Lender its ratable share (as determined in accordance with subpart
(b) above), if any, of the amount of principal, interest, and Fees received by it for the account of such Lender. Payments received by the Agent in Dollars shall be delivered to the Lenders in Dollars in immediately available funds. 

ARTICLE III 

TAXES, INCREASED COSTS AND ILLEGALITY 
 Section 3.01 Increased Costs, Illegality, etc. 
 (a) In the event that
(x) in the case of clause (i) below, the Agent or (y) in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) below, any Lender, shall have determined on a reasonable basis (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and
conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto): 
 (i) on any date for determining the interest rate applicable
to any Eurodollar Loan for any Interest Period that, by reason of any changes arising after the Closing Date, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable interest rate on the basis provided for in this Agreement for such
Eurodollar Loan; or 

  
 29 

 (ii) subject to Section 3.03 and clauses (d) and (e) below,
at any time that such Lender has incurred increased costs or reductions in the amounts received or receivable by it hereunder in an amount that such Lender deems material with respect to any Eurodollar Loans (other than any Excluded Taxes) because
of any Change in Law, but, in all events, excluding reserves already includable in the interest rate applicable to such Eurodollar Loan pursuant to this Agreement) (“Increased Costs”); or 

(iii) at any time, that the making or continuance of any Eurodollar Loan has become unlawful by compliance by such Lender
in good faith with any Change in Law, or has become impracticable as a result of a contingency occurring after the Closing Date that materially adversely affects the London interbank market; 

then, and in each such event, such Lender (or the Agent in the case of clause (i) above) shall (x) on or promptly
following such date or time and (y) within 10 Business Days of the date on which such event no longer exists give notice (by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Company and to the Agent of such determination (which notice the Agent shall
promptly transmit to each of the other Lenders). Thereafter (x) in the case of clause (i) above, the affected Type of Eurodollar Loans shall no longer be available until such time as the Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the
circumstances giving rise to such notice by the Agent no longer exist, and any Notice of Borrowing, Continuation or Conversion given by the Borrower with respect to such Type of Eurodollar Loans that have not yet been incurred, Converted or
Continued shall be deemed rescinded by the Borrower or, in the case of a Notice of Borrowing, Continuation or Conversion, shall, at the option of the Borrower, be deemed converted into a Notice of Borrowing, Continuation or Conversion for Base Rate
Loans to be made on the date of Borrowing contained in such Notice of Borrowing, Continuation or Conversion, (y) in the case of clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender, within 15 days after demand by such Lender, such
additional amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender shall reasonably determine) as shall be required to compensate such Lender, for such increased costs or reductions
described in clause (ii) above in amounts receivable hereunder (a written notice as to the additional amounts owed to such Lender, showing the basis for the calculation thereof, which basis must be reasonable and giving reasonable details of
the circumstances giving rise to such claim, submitted to the Borrower by such Lender shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) and (z) in the case of clause (iii) above, the Borrower shall
take one of the actions specified in Section 3.01(b) as promptly as possible and, in any event, within the time period required by law. 
 (b) At any time that any Eurodollar Loan is affected by the circumstances described in Section 3.01(a)(ii) or (iii), the Borrower may (and in the case of a Eurodollar Loan affected pursuant to
Section 3.01(a)(iii) the Borrower shall) either (i) if the affected Eurodollar Loan is then being made pursuant to a Borrowing, by giving the Agent telephonic notice (confirmed promptly in writing) thereof on the same date that the
Borrower was notified by a Lender pursuant to Section 3.01(a)(ii) or (iii), cancel said Borrowing, or convert the related Notice of Borrowing, Continuation or Conversion into one requesting a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans or require the affected
Lender to make its requested Loan as a Base Rate Loan, or (ii) if the affected Eurodollar Loan is then outstanding, upon at least one Business Day’s notice to the Agent, require the affected Lender to Convert each such Eurodollar Loan into
a Base Rate Loan, provided, however, that if more than one Lender is affected at any time, then all affected Lenders must be treated the same pursuant to this Section 3.01(b). 

  
 30 

 (c) Subject to clauses (d) and (e) below and with respect to Eurodollar Loans
only, if any Lender shall have determined that a Change in Law has or would have the effect of reducing by an amount reasonably deemed by such Lender to be material to the rate of return on such Lender’s or its parent corporation’s capital
or assets as a consequence of such Lender’s commitments or obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or its parent corporation could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or
its parent corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time, within 15 days after demand by such Lender (with a copy to the Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will
compensate such Lender or its parent corporation for such reduction. Each Lender, upon determining in good faith that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section 3.01(c), will give prompt written notice thereof to the
Borrower, which notice shall set forth, in reasonable detail and giving reasonable details of the circumstances giving rise to such claim, the basis of the calculation of such additional amounts, which basis must be reasonable, although the failure
to give any such notice shall not release or diminish any of the Borrower’s obligations to pay additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.01(c) upon the subsequent receipt of such notice. 

(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (i) no Lender shall be entitled to compensation or payment or
reimbursement of other amounts under Section 3.01 for any amounts incurred or accruing more than 120 days prior to the giving of notice to the applicable Borrower of additional costs or other amounts of the nature described in such Section and
(ii) no Lender shall demand compensation for any reduction referred to in Section 3.01(c) or payment if it shall not at the time be the general policy or practice of such Lender to demand such compensation, payment or reimbursement in
similar circumstances under comparable provisions of other credit agreements. 
 (e) Section 3.01 does not apply to the
extent any Increased Cost is attributable to the breach by the relevant Lender or its Affiliates of any law, rule or regulation, or a failure by the relevant Lender or its Affiliates to make any required filing with any regulatory authority.

 Section 3.02 Breakage Compensation. The Borrower shall compensate each applicable Lender, upon its written
request (which request shall set forth the detailed basis for requesting and the method of calculating such compensation), for all reasonable losses, costs, expenses and liabilities (including, without limitation, any loss, cost, expense or
liability incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds required by such Lender to fund its Eurodollar Loans and costs associated with foreign currency hedging obligations incurred by such Lender in connection with
any Eurodollar Loan, but excluding any loss of the Applicable Margin on such Loans) which such Lender may sustain in connection with any of the foregoing: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by such Lender or the Agent) a Borrowing of
Eurodollar Loans does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing, Continuation or Conversion (whether or not withdrawn by the Borrower or deemed withdrawn pursuant to Section 3.01(a)); (ii) if any repayment,
prepayment, Conversion or Continuation of any of its Eurodollar Loans occurs on a date that is not the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto; (iii) if any prepayment of any of its Eurodollar Loans is not made on any date specified
in a notice of prepayment given by the Borrower; (iv) as a result of an assignment by a Lender of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto pursuant to a request by the Borrower pursuant to
Section 3.04(b); or (v) as a consequence of (x) any other default by the Borrower to repay or prepay its Eurodollar Loans when required by the terms of this Agreement or (y) an election made pursuant to Section 3.04(b). The
written request of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section (and a reasonable level of detail as to the basis of calculation of such amounts) shall be delivered to the Company
and the Borrower responsible therefor and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such request within 10 days after receipt thereof. 

  
 31 

 Section 3.03 Net Payments. 

(a) All payments made by the Borrower hereunder, under any Note or any other Loan Document shall be made without setoff, counterclaim or
other defense. All such payments will be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees, assessments or other charges of whatever nature now or hereafter imposed by any
jurisdiction or by any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein with respect to such payments (but excluding, except as provided in the second succeeding sentence, any (A) franchise tax (imposed in lieu of net income taxes)
and taxes imposed on or measured by the net income of a Lender pursuant to (i) the laws of the jurisdiction under which such Lender is organized or the jurisdiction in which the principal office or the Domestic Lending Office of such Lender is
located or any subdivision thereof or therein or (ii) the laws of any jurisdiction as a result of a present or former connection between such Lender and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such tax or any political
subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than any such connection arising solely from the Lender’s having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this Agreement, any Note or
any other Loan Document) and (B) any branch profits taxes imposed by the United States of America or any similar tax imposed by any other jurisdiction described in clause (A) above (all such taxes described in this parenthetical, as
modified by the proviso at the end of the succeeding sentence, being referred to collectively as “Excluded Taxes”)), any withholding tax that is imposed to the extent that the requirements for a waiver of withholding under FATCA are
not met and all interest, penalties or similar liabilities with respect to such non-Excluded Taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees, assessments or other charges (all such non-Excluded Taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees, assessments or other charges
being referred to collectively as “Taxes”). If any Taxes are so levied or imposed, the applicable Borrower agrees to pay such additional amounts as may be necessary so that every payment by it of all amounts due hereunder, under any
Note or under any other Loan Document, after withholding or deduction for or on account of any Taxes will not be less than the amount provided for herein or in such Note or in such other Loan Document; provided, however, that to the extent
that any such payment, on the date that such payment falls due, could have been made without any such deduction or withholding if such payment were made to a Qualifying Lender, but the Lender to which such payment is made has ceased to be a
Qualifying Lender other than as a result of any Change in Law, then the Borrower shall not be required to pay such additional amounts attributable to such Lender’s failure to be a Qualifying Lender. Each Qualifying Lender whose qualifying
status is based upon a double tax treaty, or a relevant tax law in a jurisdiction of the Borrower, shall timely cooperate in completing any procedural formalities (including, without limitation, the completion and provision of the Internal Revenue
Service Forms, the Withholding Certificate and an Exemption Certificate (if applicable) as described in Section 3.03(b)) necessary to obtain such Qualifying Lender status and shall promptly inform the Borrower and the Agent of any change
affecting its Qualifying Lender status. If any amounts are payable in respect of Taxes pursuant to the sentence before the preceding sentence, the Borrower agrees to reimburse each Lender, within 15 Business Days of a written request of such Lender
for taxes imposed on or measured by the net income of such Lender by reason of the payment of such Taxes and net of any tax benefits received by such Lender pursuant to the laws of the jurisdiction in which such Lender is organized or in which the
principal office or Domestic Lending Office of such Lender is located, as the case may be, or under the laws of any political subdivision or taxing authority of any such jurisdiction in which the principal office or the Domestic Lending Office of
such Lender is located, as the case may be, and for any withholding of taxes measured by net income imposed by any relevant jurisdiction of the Borrower, the United States of America as such Lender shall determine are payable by, or withheld from,

 (b) (i) Each Lender that becomes a Lender on the Closing Date shall be a Qualifying Lender.
Each Lender and Participant agrees to provide to the Company and the Agent on or prior to the Closing Date, or in the case of a Participant or a Lender that is an assignee or transferee of an interest under this Agreement pursuant to
Section 11.05 (unless the respective Lender or Participant was already a Lender or Participant hereunder immediately prior to such assignment or transfer and such Lender or Participant is in compliance with the provisions of this Section),
prior to the date of such assignment or transfer to such Lender or Participant, and from time to time thereafter if required by the Company or the Agent: (1) either (x) two accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue
Service Forms W-9, W-8BEN, W-8ECI, W-8EXP or W-8IMY (or successor, substitute or other appropriate forms) certifying to such Lender’s or Participant’s entitlement to a complete exemption from, or a reduced rate of withholding from, United
States withholding tax with respect to payments to be made under this Agreement, any Note or any other Loan Document, or (y) in the case of a Lender or Participant that is not incorporated or organized under the laws of the United States or a
state therein and is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code claiming exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio
interest,” a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G (any such certificate, an “Exemption Certificate”) and an Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or, in either case, any subsequent versions thereof or
successors thereto, properly completed and duly executed by such Lender or Participant claiming complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax on all interest payments by the Borrower made under this Agreement, any Note or any other Loan
Document, and (2) either (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit H (any such certificate, a “Withholding Certificate”), executed by an authorized officer of such Lender and other appropriate
documentation certifying to such Lender’s or Participant’s entitlement to a complete exemption from, or rate of, withholding tax under the relevant tax law (as modified by any relevant double tax treaty) in each relevant jurisdiction of
the Borrower with respect to payments of interest to be made under this Agreement, any Note or any other Loan Document or (y) such other written certifications as shall be sufficient for the Company and the Agent to determine whether such
Lender or Participant is entitled to a complete exemption from, or rate of, withholding tax under the relevant law in each relevant jurisdiction of the Borrower with respect to payments of interest to be made under this Agreement, any Note or any
other Loan Document. In addition, each Lender and Participant agrees that from time to time after the Closing Date, when a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders the previous certification obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, it
will deliver to the Company and the Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased) two new accurate and complete original signed copies of the applicable Internal Revenue
Service Form, an Exemption Certificate (if applicable), and a Withholding Certificate and related documentation, as the case may be, and such other forms as may be required in order to confirm or establish the entitlement of such Lender or
Participant to a continued exemption from, or rate of, withholding tax in each relevant jurisdiction of the Borrower with respect to payments under this Agreement, any Note or any other Loan Document. In addition, if a payment made to a Lender or
Participant under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender or Participant 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 or Participant shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent,
such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the
Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender or Participant has complied with such Lender’s or such Participant’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from any such
payments (the “FATCA Documentation”). Solely for purposes of this Section 3.03(a)(i), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. 

  
 33 

 (ii) Each Lender and Participant that is not incorporated or organized under the laws of the
jurisdiction under which the Borrower is incorporated or organized or is not a resident for taxation purposes of the Borrower’s country of tax residence, shall deliver to the Agent, the Company, and the applicable Governmental Authority (if
required), prior to the date such Lender or Participant becomes a Lender or Participant under this Agreement, any form or certificate required in order that any payment by the Borrower under this Agreement or a Note to the Lender may be made
without, or at a reduced rate of, withholding tax imposed on such payment under the laws of the jurisdiction under which the Borrower is incorporated or organized or is otherwise a resident for taxation purposes. 

(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 3.03(a), but subject to Section 11.05(c) and the
immediately succeeding sentence, (x) the Borrower shall be entitled, to the extent it is required to do so by law, to deduct or withhold Taxes imposed by each relevant jurisdiction of the Borrower (or any political subdivision or taxing
authority thereof or therein) from interest, fees or other amounts payable hereunder for the account of any Lender that has not provided to the Company such Internal Revenue Service Forms, Exemption Certificate (if applicable), Withholding
Certificate, FATCA Documentation and related documentation that establish a complete exemption from withholding and (y) the Borrower shall not be obligated pursuant to Section 3.03(a) hereof to gross-up payments to be made to a Lender in
respect of Taxes of such Lender or any additional amounts with respect thereto (A) if such Lender (or related Participant) has not provided to the Company the Internal Revenue Service Forms or statement required to be provided to the Company
pursuant to this Section 3.03(b), (B) if the Company has been provided a Withholding Certificate from such Lender (or related Participant) providing for a zero rate of withholding tax under the relevant tax law in each relevant
jurisdiction of the Borrower with respect to payments of interest to be made under this Agreement, which Withholding Certificate has proven to be inaccurate, (C) if the Lender was not a Qualifying Lender on the date that it became a Lender
under this Agreement, or (D) to the extent that such forms do not establish a complete exemption from withholding of such Taxes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the preceding sentence or elsewhere in this Section 3.03
and except as specifically provided for in Section 11.05(c), the Borrower agrees to pay additional amounts and indemnify each Lender in the manner set forth in Section 3.03(a) (without regard to the identity of the jurisdiction requiring
the deduction or withholding) in respect of any Taxes deducted or withheld by it as described in the previous sentence as a result of any changes after the date that such Lender became a Lender under this Agreement in any applicable law, treaty,
governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order, or in the interpretation thereof, relating to the deducting or withholding of income or similar Taxes. 
 (c) If (i) a Lender or the Agent is entitled to claim a refund from a Governmental Authority in respect of Taxes or Other Taxes as to which indemnification has been paid by the Borrower pursuant to
this Section or Section 11.01 and (ii) such Lender or the Agent, in its sole opinion, reasonably determines the amount of such refund, net of any costs incurred in pursuing such refund, is material, it shall make a timely claim to such
Governmental Authority for such refund. If any Lender, in its sole opinion, reasonably determines that it has finally and irrevocably received or been granted a refund in respect of any Taxes or Other Taxes paid as to which indemnification has been
paid by the Borrower pursuant to this Section, or Section 11.01, it shall promptly remit to the Borrower such refund (including any interest received in respect thereof), net of all out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in obtaining the
refund; provided, however, that the Borrower agrees to promptly return any such refund (including any interest received in respect thereof) to such Lender in the event such Lender is required to repay such refund to the relevant taxing
authority. Any such Lender shall provide the Borrower with a copy of any notice of assessment from the relevant taxing authority (redacting any unrelated confidential information contained therein) requiring repayment of such refund. Nothing
contained herein shall impose an obligation on any Lender to apply for any such refund. 

  
 34 

 Section 3.04 Change of Lending Office; Replacement of Lenders. 

(a) Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 3.01(a)(ii) or (iii),
Section 3.01(c), or Section 3.03 with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Company, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another Domestic Lending Office for any Loans
or Commitments affected by such event; provided, however, that such designation is made on such terms that such Lender and its Domestic Lending Office suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, with the object of avoiding the
consequence of the event giving rise to the operation of any such Section. 
 (b) If (i) any Lender requests any
compensation, reimbursement or other payment under Section 3.01(a)(ii) or (iii), or 3.01(c) with respect to such Lender, (ii) the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or Governmental Authority pursuant to
Section 3.03 (iii) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or (iv) any Lender refused to consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification of any Loan Document requested by the Company that requires the consent of a greater percentage
of the Lenders than the Required Lenders and such amendment, waiver or other modification is consented to by the Required Lenders, then the Company may, at its sole expense, upon notice to such Lender and the Agent, require such Lender to assign and
delegate, without recourse (in accordance with the restrictions contained in Section 11.05(c)), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an Eligible Assignee that, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and
is continuing, is not subject to any Taxes, which Eligible Assignee shall assume such obligations; provided, however, that (x) the Company shall have received the prior written consent of the Agent, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed, (y) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee
(to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts, including any breakage compensation under Section 3.02 hereof), and (z) in the case of any such assignment
resulting from a claim for compensation, reimbursement or other payments required to be made under Section 3.01(a)(ii) or (iii), or (c) with respect to such Lender, or resulting from any required payments to any Lender or Governmental
Authority pursuant to Section 3.03, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation, reimbursement or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of an
unconditional and irrevocable waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Company to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. 
 (c) Nothing in this Section 3.04 shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the right of any Lender provided in Section 3.01 or Section 3.03. 

ARTICLE IV

 Section 4.01 Organization; Powers. Each of the Parent, the Company and the Subsidiaries is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its
organization, has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted and, except where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, is
qualified to do business in, and is in good standing in, every jurisdiction where such qualification is required. 

Section 4.02 Authorization; Enforceability. The execution, delivery and performance by the Company, the Parent and the other
Credit Parties of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the borrowing of Loans, the use of the proceeds thereof and the issuance of Letters of Credit hereunder (collectively, the “Transactions”) are within such Credit
Party’s corporate powers and have been duly 

  
 35 

 
authorized by all necessary corporate and, if required, stockholder action. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by each of the Parent, the Company and each other Credit Party
party hereto and constitutes, and each other Loan Document to which any Credit Party is to be a party, when executed and delivered by such Credit Party, will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of each of the Parent, the Company or
such Credit Party (as the case may be), enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of
equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law. 
 Section 4.03 Governmental Approvals; No
Conflicts. The Transactions (a) do not require any consent or approval of, registration or filing with, or any other action by, any Governmental Authority, except such as have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect,
(b) will not violate any applicable law or regulation or the charter, by-laws or other organizational documents of any of the Parent, the Company or any Subsidiary or any order of any Governmental Authority, (c) will not violate or result
in a default under any indenture or other agreement for borrowed money or under any other material agreement binding upon any of the Parent, the Company or any Subsidiary or its assets, or give rise to a right thereunder to require any payment to be

Section 4.04 Financial Condition; No Material Adverse Change. 

(a) The Company has furnished to the Agent and the Lenders complete and correct copies of the audited consolidated balance sheets of the
Parent and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of January 29, 2011 and the related audited consolidated statements of income, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows of the Parent and its consolidated Subsidiaries for the fiscal year of the
Parent then ended, accompanied by the report thereon of PricewaterhouseCoopers. All such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, consistently applied (except as stated therein), and fairly present the financial position of
the Parent and its Subsidiaries as of the respective dates indicated and the consolidated results of their operations and cash flows for the respective periods indicated, subject in the case of any such financial statements that are unaudited, to
normal audit adjustments, none of which will involve a Material Adverse Effect. The Parent and its Subsidiaries did not have, as of the date of the latest financial statements referred to above, and will not have as of the Closing Date after giving
effect to the incurrence of Loans hereunder, any material or significant contingent liability or liability for taxes, long-term lease or unusual forward or long-term commitment that is not reflected in the foregoing financial statements or the notes
thereto in accordance with GAAP and that in any such case is material in relation to the business, operations, properties, assets, financial or other condition or prospects of the Parent and its Subsidiaries. 

(b) The financial projections of the Parent and its Subsidiaries for the fiscal years 2012 through 2016 prepared by the Parent and
delivered to the Agent and the Lenders (the “Financial Projections”) were prepared on behalf of the Parent in good faith after taking into account historical levels of business activity of the Parent and its Subsidiaries, known
trends, including general economic trends, and all other information, assumptions and estimates considered by management of the Parent and its Subsidiaries to be pertinent thereto; provided, however, that no representation or warranty
is made as to the impact of future general economic conditions or as to whether the Parent’s projected consolidated results as set forth in the Financial Projections will actually be realized, it being recognized by the Lenders that such
projections as to future events are not to be viewed as facts and that actual results for the periods covered by the Financial Projections may differ materially from the Financial Projections. No facts are known to the Parent or the Company as of
the Closing Date which, if reflected in the Financial Projections, would result in a material adverse change in the assets, liabilities, results of operations or cash flows reflected therein. 

  
 36 

 (c) Since January 29, 2011, there has been no material adverse change in the business,
assets, operations, prospects or condition, financial or otherwise, of the Parent, the Company and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

 (b) Each of the Parent, the Company and the Subsidiaries owns, or is licensed to use, all
trademarks, trade names, copyrights, patents and other intellectual property material to its business, and the use thereof by the Parent, the Company and the Subsidiaries does not infringe upon the rights of any other Person, except for any such
failure to own or be licensed and infringements that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
 Section 4.06 Litigation and Environmental Matters. 
 (a) There are no
actions, suits or proceedings by or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority pending against or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against or affecting any of the Parent, the Company or any of the Subsidiaries (i) as to which
there is a reasonable possibility of an adverse determination and that, if adversely determined, could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect (other than the Disclosed Matters) or
(ii) that expressly contest the validity of this Agreement or the Transactions. 
 (b) Except for the Disclosed Matters and
except with respect to any other matters that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, none of the Parent, the Company nor any Subsidiary (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. 
 (c) There has been no change

taxes, assessments, remittances, fees and other governmental charges for all fiscal periods as are required by GAAP. Neither the Parent nor the Borrower knows of any proposed assessment for additional federal, foreign or state or provincial taxes
for any period, or of any basis therefor, which, individually or in the aggregate, taking into account such charges, accruals and reserves in respect thereof as the Parent and its Subsidiaries have made, could reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect. 
 Section 4.10 ERISA. Compliance by the Parent and the Borrower with the provisions hereof
and Credit Events contemplated hereby will not involve any Prohibited Transaction. The Parent and each of its Subsidiaries, (i) have fulfilled all obligations under minimum funding standards of ERISA and the Code with respect to each Plan that
is not a Multiemployer Plan or a Multiple Employer Plan, except where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, (ii) have satisfied all respective
contribution obligations in respect of each Multiemployer Plan and each Multiple Employer Plan, except where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect,

established thereunder, except where the incurrence of such liability could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No Plan or trust created thereunder has been terminated, and there have been no Reportable Events, with
respect to any Plan or trust created thereunder or with respect to any Multiemployer Plan or Multiple Employer Plan, which termination or Reportable Event will or could result in the termination of such Plan, Multiemployer Plan or Multiple Employer
Plan and give rise to a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Parent, the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate is at the date hereof, or has been at any time within the two years preceding the date hereof, an employer required to contribute to any
Multiemployer Plan or Multiple Employer Plan, or a “contributing sponsor” (as such term is defined in Section 4001 of ERISA) in any Multiemployer Plan or Multiple Employer Plan. Neither the Parent, the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate
has any material contingent liability with respect to any post-retirement “welfare benefit plan” (as such term is defined in ERISA) except as has been disclosed to the Agent and the Lenders in writing. Neither the Parent nor any Subsidiary
of the Parent maintains, in respect of employment in Canada, either (i) any defined benefit registered pension plan or (ii) any retiree welfare benefits plans for employees. 

Section 4.11 Disclosure. The reports, financial statements, certificates and other information furnished by or on behalf of
the Parent, the Borrower or any other Credit Party to the Agent or any Lender in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement or delivered hereunder (as modified or supplemented by other information so furnished), taken as a whole, do not
contain any material misstatement of fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided that, with respect to projected financial

 Section 4.13 Use of Proceeds; Margin Regulations.

limitation, to make certain Restricted Payments pursuant to Section 7.06 hereunder), in each case, not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement. 
 (b) No part of the proceeds of any Credit Event will be used directly or indirectly to purchase or carry Margin Stock, or to extend credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin
Stock, in violation of any of the provisions of Regulations T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. No Borrower is engaged in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock. At
no time would more than 25% of the value of the assets of the Parent, the Company or of the Parent and its consolidated Subsidiaries that are subject to any “arrangement” (as such term is used in Section 221.2(g) of such Regulation U)
hereunder be represented by Margin Stock. 
 Section 4.14 Insurance. The Parent and each of its Subsidiaries
maintains insurance coverage by such insurers and in such forms and amounts and against such risks as are generally consistent with industry standards and in each case in compliance with the terms of Section 6.05.

of its obligations under any contract, agreement, document or instrument, in each case to the extent any such default or event of default could reasonably to expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(e) Cross Default Under Other Agreements: the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries shall (i) default in any payment with respect
to any Material Indebtedness and such default shall continue after any applicable grace or cure period, if any, specified in the agreement or instrument relating to such Material Indebtedness and, with respect to any guaranties that may default

Section 8.02 Remedies. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, and at any time thereafter if any Event of Default shall
then be continuing, the Agent shall, upon the written request of the Required Lenders, by written notice to the Borrower, take any or all of the following actions, without prejudice to the rights of the Agent or any Lender to enforce its claims
against the Company or any other Credit Party in any manner permitted under applicable law: 

  
 53 

 (a) declare the Commitments terminated, whereupon the Commitment of each Lender shall
forthwith terminate immediately without any other notice of any kind; 
 (b) declare the principal of and any accrued interest
in respect of all Loans and all other Obligations owing hereunder and thereunder to be, whereupon the same shall become, forthwith due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by
the Borrower; or 
 (c) exercise any other right or remedy available under any of the Loan Documents or applicable law;

 provided that, if an Event of Default specified in Section 8.01(g) shall occur, the result that would occur upon the giving of
written notice by the Agent as specified in clauses (a) and/or (b) above shall occur automatically without the giving of any such notice. 
 Section 8.03 Application of Certain Payments and Proceeds. All payments and other amounts received by the Agent or any Lender (i) at any time on or after the Equalization Date or
(ii) at any time from the exercise of remedies hereunder or under the other Credit Documents, shall in each case unless otherwise required by the terms of the other Loan Documents or by applicable law be applied as follows: 

(a) Obligations Generally. Except with respect to any amounts that are required to first be applied pursuant to subparts
(b) or (c) below, all amounts received by or with respect to the Company or any other Credit Party shall be applied: 
 (i) first, to the payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities and expenses and other amounts (including attorneys’ fees and amounts due under Article III) payable
to the Agent in its capacity as such; 
 (ii) second, to the payment of that portion of the Obligations
constituting fees, indemnities and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and amounts due under Article III) payable to each Lender, ratably among them in proportion to the aggregate of all such amounts; 

(iii) third, to the payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid interest on the
Loans ratably among the Lenders in proportion to the aggregate of all such amounts; 
 (iv) fourth, pro
rata to the payment of (A) that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Loans ratably among the Lenders in proportion to the aggregate of all such amounts, and (B) the amounts due in respect of termination
payments to Designated Hedge Creditors under Designated Hedge Agreements (subject to confirmation by the Agent that any calculations of termination or other payment obligations are being made in accordance with normal industry practice); 

(v) fifth, to the payment of all other Obligations of the Credit Parties owing under or in respect of the Loan
Documents that are then due and payable to the Agent, the Lenders and the Designated Hedge Creditors, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such Obligations owing to them on such date; and 

(vi) finally, any remaining surplus after all of the Obligations have been paid in full, to the Borrower or to
whomsoever shall be lawfully entitled thereto. 

  
 54 

 Section 8.04 Equalization. 

(a) Equalization Prior to Equalization Date. 

(i) Generally. Subject to subpart (b) below, if at any time any Lender receives any amount hereunder (whether
by voluntary payment, by realization upon security, by the exercise of the right of setoff or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action, by the enforcement of any right under the Loan Documents, or otherwise) that is applicable to the
payment of the principal of, or interest on, the Loans or Fees (other than Fees that are intended to be paid solely to the Agent or and amounts payable to a Lender under Article III), of a sum that with respect to the related sum or sums received by
other Lenders is in a greater proportion than the total of such Obligation then owed and due to such Lender (based on such Lender’s ratable share thereof as determined in accordance with Section 2.11 or Section 8.03(a) or specifically
set forth elsewhere in this Agreement) bears to the total of such Obligation then owed and due to all of the Lenders immediately prior to such receipt, then such Lender receiving such excess payment shall purchase for cash without recourse or
warranty from the other Lenders an interest in the Obligations to such Lenders in such amount as shall result in a proportional participation by all of the Lenders in such amount. 

(ii) Recovery of Amounts. If any amount paid to any Lender pursuant to subpart (i) above is recovered in whole
or in part from such Lender, such original purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price restored ratably to the extent of the recovery. 
 (b) Equalization after Equalization Date. If at any time on or after the Equalization Date, the Credit Facility Exposure owing to any Lender is greater than an amount equal to such Lender’s
Equalization Percentage of the Aggregate Credit Facility Exposure, then on such date each of the other Lenders shall purchase from such Lender for cash at par an amount of the Obligations of such Lender as shall be necessary such that the Credit
Facility Exposure owing to such Lender is equal to the amount of its Equalization Percentage of the Aggregate Credit Facility Exposure. 
 (c) Consent. The Parent and the Company consent to the foregoing and agree, to the extent they may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the
foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. In no event,
however, shall a Lender exercise a right of set-off or counterclaim against the Borrower with respect to the participated Obligations unless the Borrower is otherwise obligated with respect to such Obligations. 

(d) Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the provisions of this Section shall be subject
to the express provisions of this Agreement that require, or permit, differing payments to be made to Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders, as opposed to Defaulting Lenders. If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it
pursuant to this Section, then the Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations
to the Agent under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

officers contained in this Agreement, any other Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document
or for any failure of the Parent, the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower or any of their respective officers to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Agent 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 to inspect the properties, books or records of the Parent, the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower. The Agent shall not be
responsible to any Lender for the effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectibility or sufficiency of this Agreement or any Loan Document or for any representations, warranties, recitals or statements made herein or therein or

writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, e-mail or other electronic transmission, facsimile transmission, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it,

independent accountants and other experts selected by 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 it deems appropriate or it shall 

  
 56 

 
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 (or all of the Lenders (other than any Defaulting Lender), as
applicable, as to any matter that, pursuant to Section 11.11, can only be effectuated with the consent of all Lenders, or all Lenders (other than any Defaulting Lender), as the case may be), and such request and any action taken or failure to
act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders. 
 Section 9.05 Notice of Default. The Agent shall not
be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder unless the Agent has received notice from a Lender or the 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 prompt 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, however, 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 9.06 Non-Reliance. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Agent nor any of its Related Parties have made
any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Agent hereinafter taken, including, without limitation, any review of the affairs of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, 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, assets, operations, property, financial and other conditions, prospects and creditworthiness of the Parent and its Subsidiaries and made its own decision to make its 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 to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, assets, operations, property, financial and other conditions, prospects
and creditworthiness of the Parent and its Subsidiaries. The Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, assets, property, financial and other
conditions, prospects or creditworthiness of the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries that may come into the possession of the Agent or any of its Related Parties. 
 Section 9.07 No Reliance on Agent’s Customer Identification Program. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that neither such Lender, nor any of its Affiliates, Participants or assignees,
may rely on the Agent to carry out such Lender’s, Affiliate’s, Participant’s or assignee’s customer identification program, or other obligations required or imposed under or pursuant to the USA Patriot Act or the regulations
thereunder, including the regulations contained in 31 CFR 103.121 (as hereafter amended or replaced, the “CIP Regulations”), or any other Anti-Terrorism Law, including any programs involving any of the following items relating
to or in connection with the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, any of its Affiliates or agents, the Loan Documents or the transactions hereunder: (a) any identity verification procedures, (b) any record keeping, (c) any comparisons
with government lists, (d) any customer notices or (e) any other procedures required under the CIP Regulations or such other laws. 
 Section 9.08 USA Patriot Act. Each Lender or assignee or Participant of a Lender that is not organized under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof (and is not excepted
from the certification requirement contained in Section 313 of the USA Patriot Act and the applicable regulations because it is both (a) an affiliate of a depository institution or foreign bank that maintains a physical

  
 57 

 
presence in the United States or foreign country, and (b) subject to supervision by a banking authority regulating such affiliated depository institution or foreign bank) shall deliver to
the Agent the certification, or, if applicable, recertification, certifying that such Lender is not a “shell” and certifying to other matters as required by Section 313 of the USA Patriot Act and the applicable regulations,
within 10 days after the Closing Date at such other times as are required under the USA Patriot Act. 
 Section 9.09
Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Agent and its Related Parties as such ratably according to its Fixed Commitment Percentages, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions,
judgments, suits, costs, reasonable expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (including, without limitation, at any time following the payment of the Obligations) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Agent
or such Related Parties in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or the transactions contemplated hereby or any action taken or omitted to be taken by
the Agent or such Related Parties under or in connection with any of the foregoing, but only to the extent that any of the foregoing are not paid by the Borrower; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable to the Agent or any of its
Related Parties for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements to the extent resulting solely from the Agent’s or such Related
Parties’ gross negligence or willful misconduct. If any indemnity furnished to the Agent or any such Related Parties for any purpose shall, in the opinion of the Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, the Agent may call for additional
indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of all Obligations. 

Section 9.10 The Agent in Individual Capacity. The Agent and its branches and Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits
from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Parent, the Company, and their Subsidiaries and Affiliates as though not acting as Agent hereunder. With respect to the Loans made by it and all Obligations owing to it, the Agent shall have
the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include the Agent in its individual capacity. 

Section 9.11 Successor Agent. The Agent may resign at any time upon not less than 30 days notice to the Lenders and the
Company. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Company, to appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have
accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent; provided, however, that if the Agent shall notify the
Company and the Lenders that no such successor is willing to accept such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (i) the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and
obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any cash collateral held by the Agent on behalf of the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Agent shall continue to hold such cash collateral until
such time as a successor Agent is appointed) and (ii) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time as the Required Lenders
appoint a successor Agent as provided for above in this paragraph. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of
the retiring (or retired) Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this paragraph). The fees
payable by the Company to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Company and such successor. After the retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan
Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 11.02 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of
them while the retiring Agent was acting as Agent. 

  
 58 

 Section 9.12 Other Agents. Any Lender identified herein as a Co-Agent,
Syndication Agent, Documentation Agent, Managing Agent, Manager, Co-Lead Arranger, Arranger or any other corresponding title, other than “Agent,” shall have no right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document except those applicable to all Lenders as such. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any Lender so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking
any action hereunder.

liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay or omission (other than to the extent attributable to any such Indemnified Person) to pay such taxes. 
 Section 11.02 Indemnification. The Borrower agrees to indemnify the Agent, the Co-Lead Arrangers, each Lender and their respective Related Parties (collectively, the
“Indemnitees”) from and hold each of them harmless against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses reasonably incurred by any of them as a result of, or arising out of, or in any way related to, or by reason of
(i) any investigation, litigation or other proceeding (whether or not any Lender is a party thereto) related to the entering into and/or performance of any Loan Document or the use of the proceeds of any Loans hereunder or the consummation of
any transactions contemplated in any Loan Document, other than any such investigation, litigation or proceeding arising out of transactions solely between any of the Lenders, the Agent or the Co-Lead Arrangers, transactions solely involving the
assignment by a Lender of all or a portion of its Loans and Commitments, or the granting of participations therein, as provided in this Agreement, or arising solely out of any examination of a Lender by any regulatory or other Governmental Authority
having jurisdiction over it, or (ii) the actual or alleged presence of Hazardous Materials in the air, surface water or groundwater or on the surface or subsurface of any Real Property owned, leased or at any

  
 59 

 
time operated by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, the release, generation, storage, transportation, handling or disposal of Hazardous Materials at any location, whether or not owned or
operated by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, if the Company or any such Subsidiary could have or is alleged to have any responsibility in respect thereof, the non-compliance of any such Real Property with foreign, federal, state, provincial,
territorial, municipal and local laws, regulations and ordinances (including applicable permits thereunder) applicable thereto, or any Environmental Claim asserted against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, in respect of any such Real Property,
including, in the case of each of (i) and (ii) above, without limitation, the reasonable documented fees and disbursements of counsel incurred in connection with any such investigation, litigation or other proceeding (but excluding any
such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses to the extent incurred by reason of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Person to be indemnified or of any other Indemnitee who is such Person or an Affiliate of such Person). To
the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay or hold harmless any Person set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, the Company shall make the maximum contribution to the
payment and satisfaction of each of the indemnified liabilities that is permissible under applicable law. 
 Section 11.03
Right of Setoff. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law or otherwise, and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Lender is
hereby authorized at any time or from time to time, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind to the Borrower or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and apply any
and all deposits (general or special) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Lender (including, without limitation, by branches, agencies and Affiliates of such Lender wherever located) to or for the credit or the account of
the Borrower against and on account of the Obligations and liabilities of the Borrower to such Lender under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, all claims of any nature or description arising out
of or connected with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand hereunder and although said Obligations, liabilities or claims, or any of them, shall be contingent or unmatured.
Each Lender agrees to promptly notify the Borrower after any such set off and application; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set off and application. 

Section 11.04 Notices. 
 (a) Generally. Except in the case of notices and other communications expressly permitted to be given by telephone (and except as provided in subpart (c) below), all notices and other

 Section 11.05 Successors and Assigns. 
 (a) Successors and Assigns
Generally. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that no Borrower may assign or transfer any of its rights
or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of all the Lenders (other than any Defaulting Lender), and, provided, further, that any assignment or participation by a Lender of any of its rights and obligations hereunder
shall be effected in accordance with this Section. 
 (b) Participations. Each Lender may at any time grant
participations in any of its rights hereunder or under any of the Notes to an Eligible Assignee (a “Participant”), provided that in the case of any such participation, 

(i) the Participant shall not have any rights under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, including rights of
consent, approval or waiver (the Participant’s rights against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreement executed by such Lender in favor of the Participant relating thereto), 

(ii) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Commitments hereunder) shall
remain unchanged, 

  
 61 

 (iii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties
hereto for the performance of such obligations, 
 (iv) such Lender shall remain the holder of any Note for all
purposes of this Agreement, and 
 (v) the Borrower, the Agent, and the other Lenders shall continue to deal
solely and directly with the selling Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, and all amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation,
except that the Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of ARTICLE III, provided that any such Participant shall have complied with the requirements of ARTICLE III including, without limitation, Section 3.03 and provided, further, that no
Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to ARTICLE III than the transferor to the extent that such Lender would be entitled to receive if the participation had not been entered into or sold, 

and, provided further, that no Lender shall transfer, grant or sell any participation under which the Participant shall have rights to approve any
amendment to or waiver of this Agreement or any other Loan Document except to the extent such amendment or waiver would (w) increase the Maximum Credit Facility Amount, extend the final scheduled maturity of the Loans in which such Participant
is participating, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or Fees thereon (except in connection with a waiver of the applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates), or reduce the principal amount thereof, or
increase such Participant’s participating interest in any Commitment over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default shall not constitute a change in the terms of any such
Commitment), (x) release any guarantor from its guaranty of any of the Obligations, except in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, or (y) consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of its rights and
obligations under this Agreement. 
 (c) Assignments by Lenders. 

(i) Any Lender may assign all, or if less than all, a fixed portion, of its Loans and/or Commitments and its rights and
obligations hereunder to one or more Eligible Assignees, each of which shall become a party to this Agreement as a Lender by execution of an Assignment and Assumption; provided, however, that 

 

	 	(A)	except in the case (x) of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Loans and/or Commitments or (y) an assignment to another
Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender, the aggregate amount of the Commitment so assigned (which for this purpose includes the Loans outstanding thereunder) shall not be less than $5,000,000;

  

	 	(B)	in the case of any assignment to an Eligible Assignee at the time of any such assignment the Lender Register shall be deemed modified to reflect the Commitments of such
new Lender and of the existing Lenders; 

  

	 	(C)	upon surrender of the old Notes, if any, upon request of the new Lender, new Notes will be issued, at the Borrower’s expense, to such new Lender and to the
assigning Lender, to the extent needed to reflect the revised Commitments; and 

  
 62 

	 	(D)	unless waived by the Agent, the Agent shall receive at the time of each such assignment, from the assigning or assignee Lender, the payment of a non-refundable
assignment fee of $3,500. 

 (ii) To the extent of any assignment pursuant to this subpart (c), the
assigning Lender shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder with respect to its assigned Commitments. 

(iii) Prior to each assignment pursuant to this subpart (c) to a Person that is not already a Lender hereunder, the
respective assignee Lender shall provide to the Company and the Agent the appropriate Internal Revenue Service Forms described in Section 3.03 and a Withholding Certificate (and, if applicable an Exemption Certificate). To the extent that an
assignment of all or any portion of a Lender’s Commitment and related outstanding Obligations pursuant to this subpart (c) would, at the time of such assignment, result in increased costs under Section 3.01 from those being charged by
the respective assigning Lender prior to such assignment, then the Company shall not be obligated to pay such increased costs (although the Borrower shall be obligated to pay any other increased costs of the type described above resulting from
changes after the date of the respective assignment). 
 (iv) With respect to any Lender, the transfer of any
Commitment of such Lender and the rights to the principal of, and interest on, any Loan made pursuant to such Commitment shall not be effective until such transfer is recorded on the Lender Register maintained by the Agent with respect to ownership
of such Commitment and Loans and prior to such recordation all amounts owing to the transferor with respect to such Commitment and Loans shall remain owing to the transferor. The registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of any
Commitments and Loans shall be recorded by the Agent on the Lender Register only upon the acceptance by the Agent of a properly executed and delivered Assignment and Assumption pursuant to this subpart (c). 

(v) Nothing in this Section shall prevent or prohibit (A) any Lender that is a bank, trust company or other financial
institution from pledging its Notes or Loans to a Federal Reserve Bank in support of borrowings made by such Lender from such Federal Reserve Bank, or (B) any Lender that is a trust, limited liability company, partnership or other investment
company from pledging its Notes or Loans to a trustee or agent for the benefit of holders of certificates or debt securities issued by it. No such pledge, or any assignment pursuant to or in lieu of an enforcement of such a pledge, shall relieve the
transferor Lender from its obligations hereunder. 
 (d) No SEC Registration or Blue Sky Compliance. Notwithstanding any
other provisions of this Section, no transfer or assignment of the interests or obligations of any Lender hereunder or any grant of participation therein shall be permitted if such transfer, assignment or grant would require the Borrower to file a
registration statement with the SEC or other foreign Governmental Authority or to qualify the Loans under the “Blue Sky” laws of any state or other jurisdiction. 
 (e) Representations of Lenders. Each Lender initially party to this Agreement hereby represents, and each Person that becomes a Lender pursuant to an assignment permitted by this Section will, upon
its becoming party to this Agreement, represent that it is a commercial lender, other financial institution or other “accredited” investor (as defined in SEC Regulation D) that makes or acquires loans in the ordinary course of its business
and that it will make or acquire Loans for its own account in the ordinary course of such business; provided, however, that subject to the preceding Section 11.05(b) and (c), the disposition of any promissory notes or other evidences of
or interests in Indebtedness held by such Lender shall at all times be within its exclusive control. 

  
 63 

 Section 11.06 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of
the Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document and no course of dealing between the Borrower and the Agent or any Lender shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or
partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. No notice to or demand on the
Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Agent or the Lenders to any other or further action in any circumstances without
notice or demand. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, regardless of whether the Agent, any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such
Default or Event of Default at the time. The rights and remedies herein expressly provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies that the Agent or any Lender would otherwise have. 

Section 11.07 Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial.

affect the right of the Agent or any Lender to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or to commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against the Borrower in any other jurisdiction. 

(b) The Borrower hereby irrevocably waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any of the aforesaid
actions or proceedings arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document brought in the courts referred to in Section 11.07(a) above and hereby further irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such
court that any such action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. 
 (c) EACH OF THE
PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY
AMENDMENTS, WAIVERS OR OTHER MODIFICATIONS RELATING TO ANY OF THE FOREGOING), OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS

the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Agent, for its own account and benefit and/or for the account, benefit of, and distribution to, the Lenders, constitute the entire contract among the

 66 

 
(vii) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to any assignee of or participant in, or any prospective assignee of or participant in,
any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, (viii) with the consent of the Company, or (ix) to the extent such Confidential Information (A) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section, or
(B) becomes available to the Agent or any Lender on a non-confidential basis from a source other than a Credit Party and not otherwise in violation of this Section, provided such source does not, to the knowledge of the Agent or a Lender, as
applicable, or their respective Affiliates, have an obligation of confidentiality to the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries. 

(b) As used in this Section, “Confidential Information” shall mean all information received from the Parent or any of
its Subsidiaries relating to the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their businesses, other than any such information that (A) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 11.14, or
(B) becomes available to the Agent, any Lender or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing on a non-confidential basis from a source other than a Credit Party and not otherwise in violation of this Section 11.14, provided such source does
not, to the knowledge of the Agent or a Lender, as applicable, or their respective Affiliates, have an obligation of confidentiality to the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries. 
 (c) Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Confidential Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has
exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. The Borrower hereby agrees that the failure of the Agent or any Lender to comply with
the provisions of this Section shall not relieve the Borrower, or any other Credit Party, of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. 
 Section 11.15 General Limitation of Liability. No claim may be made by any Credit Party, any Lender, the Agent or any other Person against the Agent, or any other Lender or the Affiliates,
directors, officers, employees, attorneys or agents of any of them for any damages other than actual compensatory damages in respect of any claim for breach of contract or any other theory of liability arising out of or related to the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith; and each of the Borrower, each Lender and the Agent hereby, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law,
waives, releases and agrees not to sue or counterclaim upon any such claim for any special, consequential or punitive damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor. 

Section 11.16 No Duty. All attorneys, accountants, appraisers, consultants and other professional persons (including the
firms or other entities on behalf of which any such Person may act) retained by the Agent or any Lender with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents shall have the right to act exclusively in the interest of the Agent or such
Lender, as the case may be, and shall have no duty of disclosure, duty of loyalty, duty of care, or other duty or obligation of any type or nature whatsoever to the Company, to any of its Subsidiaries, or to any other Person, with respect to any
matters within the scope of such representation or related to their activities in connection with such representation. The Borrower agrees, on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, not to assert any claim or counterclaim against any such persons
with regard to such matters, all such claims and counterclaims, now existing or hereafter arising, whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseeable, being hereby waived, released and forever discharged. 

Section 11.17 Lenders and Agent Not Fiduciary to Borrower, etc. The relationship among the Company and its Subsidiaries, on
the one hand, and the Agent and the Lenders, on the other hand, is solely that of debtor and creditor, and the Agent and the Lenders have no fiduciary or other special relationship with the Company and its Subsidiaries, and no term or provision of
any Loan Document, no course of dealing, no written or oral communication, or other action, shall be construed so as to deem such relationship to be other than that of debtor and creditor. 

  
 67

and warranties herein shall survive the making of Loans hereunder, the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Notes and the other documents the forms of which are attached as Exhibits hereto, the issue and delivery of the Notes, any
disposition thereof by any holder thereof, and any investigation made by the Agent or any Lender or any other holder of any of the Notes or on its behalf. All statements contained in any certificate or other document delivered to the Agent or any
Lender or any holder of any Notes by or on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant hereto or otherwise specifically for use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby shall constitute representations and warranties by
the Borrower hereunder, made as of the respective dates specified therein or, if no date is specified, as of the respective dates furnished to the Agent or any Lender. 
 Section 11.19 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of
such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such
provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 Section 11.20 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to
the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts that are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively, the “Charges”), shall exceed the
maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) that may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan
hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent the same is lawful and would not result in adverse tax consequences to the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries. 

Section 11.21 Press Releases and Related Matters. (a) At any time prior to the public disclosure of this Agreement, with
the Parent’s and the Borrower’s written consent, which consent may be granted or withheld in the Parent’s and the Borrower’s discretion, and (b) at any time thereafter, the Parent and the Borrower hereby each agree that the
Agent, the Syndication Agent or any Documentation Agent may use the name or other identifying information of the Parent or the Borrower solely in connection with a press release, “tombstone” or similar advertisements, or in connection with
other disclosure to the “gold Sheets” or similar bank trade publications with respect to this Agreement provided that the Agent, Syndication Agent or any Documentation Agent will use reasonable efforts not use the Parent’s or
Borrower’s logo or trademark for marketing purposes. 
 Section 11.22 Agreement of Borrower. Anything to the
contrary contained herein notwithstanding, any agreement, consent or undertaking contained herein that is applicable to the Borrower other than the Company shall only take effect as to the Borrower.

and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law on October 26, 2001)(the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and
record information that identities the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or the Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Act.

 GUARANTY OF PAYMENT (CREDIT PARTIES) 

This GUARANTY OF PAYMENT (CREDIT PARTIES) dated as of February     , 2012 (this “Agreement”), among
ABERCROMBIE & FITCH CO., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), each direct and indirect Domestic Subsidiary of Parent party hereto (each a “Domestic Subsidiary” and, together with Parent and any other Domestic
Subsidiaries that become parties hereto as contemplated by Section 24 hereof, referred to herein individually as a “Guarantor” and collectively as the “Guarantors”), and PNC BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as
administrative agent (the “Agent”) for the lenders (the “Lenders”) party to the Term Loan Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Loan
Agreement”), among Abercrombie & Fitch Management Co. (the “Company”), Parent, the Lenders party thereto, the Agent, PNC Capital Markets LLC, as co-lead arranger and co-bookrunner, J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, as
co-lead arranger and co-bookrunner, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as the Syndication Agent, Fifth Third Bank, as co-documentation agent and Citizens Bank of Pennsylvania, as co-documentation agent. 

The Lenders have agreed to make loans to Borrower in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement. The obligations of the Lenders to
lend under the Loan Agreement are conditioned on, among other things, the execution and delivery by the Guarantors of a guarantee agreement in the form hereof. The Guarantors acknowledge that they will derive substantial benefits from the extension
of credit to Borrower under the Loan Agreement. As consideration therefor and in order to induce the Lenders to make the Loans (such term and the other capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein having the meanings assigned to
them in the Loan Agreement), the Guarantors are willing to execute and deliver this Agreement. Accordingly, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
 SECTION 1. The following terms shall have the meanings specified herein: 
 “Creditor” means the Agent, the Lenders, the Designated Hedge Creditors, and the respective successors and assigns of each of the foregoing. 

“Designated Hedge Document” means (i) each Designated Hedge Agreement to which the Parent or any of
its Subsidiaries is now or may hereafter become a party, and (ii) each confirmation, transaction statement or other document executed and delivered in connection therewith to which the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries is now or may hereafter
become a party. 
 “Designated Hedge Document Obligations” means all amounts, indemnities and
reimbursement obligations, direct or indirect, contingent or absolute, of every type or description, and at any time existing owing by any Designated Hedge Obligor to any Designated Hedge Creditor pursuant to any of the Designated Hedge Documents
(including, but not limited to, interest and fees that accrue after the commencement by or against any Designated Hedge Obligor of any insolvency proceeding under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, regardless of whether such interest and
fees are allowed claims in such proceeding). 
 “Designated Hedge Obligor” means the Borrower
and any Domestic Subsidiary of the Parent that is now or may hereafter become a party to any Designated Hedge Agreement. 
 “Guaranteed Documents” means (i) the Loan Agreement, the Notes and all other Loan Documents to which any Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries is now or may hereafter become a
party, and (ii) each Designated Hedge Agreement and other Designated Hedge Document to which any Designated Hedge Obligor is now or may hereafter become a party. 

“Guaranteed Obligations” means the Obligations and the Designated Hedge Document Obligations. 

  
 C-2

 “Guaranteed Party” means the Borrower, each other Domestic
Credit Party and each Designated Hedge Obligor. 
 SECTION 2. Each of the Guarantors unconditionally guarantees,
jointly with the other Guarantors and severally, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety: (i) to the Agent and the Lenders the full and prompt payment when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of all of the
Obligations; and (ii) to each Designated Hedge Creditor the full and prompt payment when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of all of the Designated Hedge Document Obligations. Each of the Guarantors further
agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice to or further assent from it, and that it will remain bound upon its guarantee notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Guaranteed
Obligation. 
 SECTION 3. Each of the Guarantors irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest
and any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any person against any other Credit Party or any other Person, or against any guaranty of any other Person. The obligations of each of the
Guarantors shall be unconditional and absolute and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, shall not be released, discharged or otherwise affected by the occurrence, one or more times, of any of the following: (a) any extension,
renewal, settlement, compromise, waiver or release in respect to any Guaranteed Obligation under any agreement or instrument, by operation of law or otherwise; (b) any modification or amendment of or supplement to the Loan Agreement, any Note,
any other Loan Document, or any agreement or instrument evidencing or relating to any Guaranteed Obligation; (c) any release, non-perfection or invalidity of any direct or indirect security for any Guaranteed Obligation under any agreement or
instrument evidencing or relating to any Guaranteed Obligation; (d) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of any Credit Party or other Subsidiary or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding
affecting any Credit Party or other Subsidiary or its assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of any Credit Party or other Subsidiary contained in any agreement or instrument evidencing or relating to any Guaranteed
Obligation; (e) the existence of any claim, set-off or other rights which such Guarantor may have at any time against any other Credit Party, the Agent, any Lender, any Affiliate of any Lender or any other person, whether in connection herewith
or any unrelated transactions; (f) any invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against any other Credit Party for any reason of any agreement or instrument evidencing or relating to any Guaranteed Obligation, or any provision of
applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit the payment by any Credit Party of any of the Guaranteed Obligations; or (g) any other act or omission of any kind by any other Credit Party, the Agent, any Lender or any other Person or any
other circumstance whatsoever which might, but for the provisions of this Section 3, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of such Guarantor’s obligations under this Section 3 other than the irrevocable payment in full of all
Guaranteed Obligations. 
 SECTION 4. Each of the Guarantors further agrees that its guarantee hereunder is an
absolute, unconditional, present and continuing guarantee of payment when due and not of collection and is in no way conditioned or contingent upon any attempt to collect from any Guaranteed Party or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of any Guaranteed
Party, or any other action, occurrence or circumstance whatsoever, and waives any right to require that resort be had by the Agent or any Lender to any security held for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations or to any balance of any deposit account
or credit on the books of the Agent or any Lender in favor of the Borrower or any other person. In addition to the foregoing, each Guarantor, jointly and severally, unconditionally and irrevocably, guarantees to the Creditors the payment of any and
all Guaranteed Obligations of the Borrower and each other Guaranteed Party, whether or not due or payable by the obligor thereon, upon the occurrence in respect of such Guaranteed Party or other applicable obligor of any Insolvency Event, and
unconditionally and irrevocably, jointly and severally, promises to pay such Guaranteed Obligations to the Agent, for the benefit of the Creditors, on demand, in such currency and otherwise in such manner as is provided in the Guaranteed Documents
governing such Guaranteed 

  
 C-3

 
Obligations. As a separate, additional and continuing obligation, each Guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes and agrees, for the benefit of the Creditors, that, should any amounts
constituting Guaranteed Obligations not be recoverable from the Borrower or any other Guaranteed Party for any reason whatsoever (including, without limitation, by reason of any provision of any Guaranteed Document or any other agreement or
instrument executed in connection therewith being or becoming, at any time, voidable, void, unenforceable, or otherwise invalid under any applicable law), then notwithstanding any notice or knowledge thereof by the Agent, any other Creditor, any of
their respective Affiliates, or any other Person, each Guarantor, jointly and severally, as sole, original and independent obligor, upon demand by the Agent, will make payment to the Agent, for the account of the Creditors, of all such obligations
not so recoverable by way of full indemnity, in such currency and otherwise in such manner as is provided in the Guaranteed Documents. Each Guarantor understands, agrees and confirms that the Agent, on behalf of the Creditors, may enforce this
Agreement up to the full amount of the Guaranteed Obligations against any Guarantor without proceeding against any other Guarantor, any Guaranteed Party or any other Person. 
 SECTION 5. The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including, without limitation, any claim of
waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or
otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of the Agent or any Lender to assert any claim or demand or to enforce
any remedy under any Loan Document, any guarantee or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification of any thereof, by any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Guaranteed Obligations, or by any other act or
omission which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or otherwise operate as a discharge of the Borrower or any Guarantor as a matter of law or equity (other than the indefeasible payment in full of all the
Guaranteed Obligations). 
 SECTION 6. Each of the Guarantors further agrees that its guarantee shall continue to be
effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Guaranteed Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by the Agent or any Lender upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower,
any other Guarantor or otherwise. 
 SECTION 7. In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other
right which the Agent or any Lender has at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Borrower to pay any Guaranteed Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, after
notice of prepayment or otherwise, each of the Guarantors hereby promises to and will, upon receipt of written demand by the Agent, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, to the Agent for distribution to the Lenders, if and as appropriate, in cash the
amount of such unpaid Guaranteed Obligation. Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by a Guarantor hereunder or any setoff or application of funds of a Guarantor by the Agent or any Lender, no Guarantor shall be entitled to be subrogated to
any of the rights of the Agent or any Lender against the Borrower or any guarantee or right of offset held for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations (whether contractual, under Section 509 of the Bankruptcy Code, or otherwise), nor shall
any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Borrower in respect of payments made by such Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Agent or any Lender by the Borrower on account of the Guaranteed
Obligations are paid in full and the Commitments are terminated. If any amount shall erroneously be paid to any Guarantor on account of such subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity and similar rights, such amount shall be held in trust
for the benefit of the Lenders and shall forthwith be paid to the Agent to be credited and applied to the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations. Any term or provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum aggregate amount of
the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereunder by any Guarantor shall not exceed the maximum amount that can be hereby guaranteed by that Guarantor without rendering this Agreement, as it relates to such Guarantor, voidable under applicable law
relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally. 

  
 C-4

 SECTION 8. Each of the Guarantors represents and warrants that: (a) it is
duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization; (b) the execution, delivery and performance by it of this Agreement are within its corporate or limited liability company, as applicable,
powers, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or limited liability company, as applicable, and (if necessary) stockholder or member, as applicable, action, and do not contravene, or constitute a default under, any provision of
applicable law or regulation or of its certificate of incorporation or certificate of formation, as applicable, or bylaws or limited liability company agreement, as applicable, or any material agreement or instrument binding upon it; (c) it has
duly executed and delivered this Agreement and each other Loan Document, if any, to which it is party; (d) no consent or approval of, registration or filing with, or any other action by, any Governmental Authority, is required to authorize or
is required as a condition to (i) the execution, delivery and performance by such Guarantor of any Loan Document to which it is a party, or (ii) the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of any Loan Document to which such
Guarantor is a party; (e) there are no actions, suits or proceedings by or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority pending or, to the knowledge of such Guarantor, threatened against or affecting such Guarantor that (i) with respect
thereto, there is a reasonable possibility of an adverse determination and that, if adversely determined, could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect (other than the Disclosed Matters) or
(ii) expressly contest the validity of this Agreement; and (f) this Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Guarantor, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law. 

SECTION 9. The guarantees made hereunder shall survive and be in full force and effect so long as any Guaranteed Obligation
is outstanding and has not been indefeasibly paid, and shall be reinstated to the extent provided in Section 6. 

SECTION 10. This Agreement and the terms, covenants and conditions hereof shall be binding upon each Guarantor and its
successors and shall inure to the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns. None of the Guarantors shall be permitted to assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, except as
expressly contemplated by this Agreement. 
 SECTION 11. All amounts received by the Agent pursuant to, or in
connection with the enforcement of, this Agreement, together with all amounts and other rights and benefits realized by any Creditor (or to which any Creditor may be entitled) by virtue of this Agreement, shall be applied as provided in
Section 8.03 of the Loan Agreement. 
 SECTION 12. The Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree to pay, to
the extent not paid pursuant to Section 11.01 of the Loan Agreement, all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Agent and each other Creditor in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement and any amendment, waiver or consent
relating hereto (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel employed by the Agent or any of the other Creditors). 
 SECTION 13. No failure on the part of the Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any such right, power or remedy by the Agent or any Lender preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. All remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and

 SECTION 14. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES
HEREUNDER AND THEREUNDER SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND BE GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF OHIO WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE GUARANTORS HEREBY UNCONDITIONALLY AND
IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY CLAIM TO ASSERT THAT THE LAW OF ANY JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF OHIO GOVERNS THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS. Any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document
may be brought in the Court of Common Pleas of Cuyahoga County, Ohio, or of the United States for the Northern District of Ohio, and, by execution and delivery of this Agreement, each Guarantor hereby irrevocably accepts for itself and in respect of
its property, generally and unconditionally, the jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts. Each Guarantor hereby further irrevocably consents to the service of process out of any of the aforementioned courts in any such action or proceeding by the
mailing of copies thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to the Borrower at its address for notices pursuant to Section 15 hereof, such service to become effective 30 days after such mailing or at such earlier time as may be
provided under applicable law. Nothing herein shall affect the right of the Agent to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or to commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against any Guarantor in any other jurisdiction. Each
Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any of the aforesaid actions or proceedings arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document brought in the
courts referred to in this Section 14 and hereby further irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. 

SECTION 15. All communications and notices hereunder shall be in writing and given as provided in Section 11.04 of the
Loan Agreement; provided that any communication or notice hereunder to any Guarantor shall be given to it in care of the Company at the address or telecopy or telex number specified in the Loan Agreement. 

SECTION 16. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to
such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a
particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 SECTION 17. A separate
action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against any Guarantor whether or not action is brought against any other Guarantor, any other guarantor or any Guaranteed Party, and whether or not any other Guarantor, any other guarantor of the
Guaranteed Parties or any Guaranteed Party joined in any such action or actions. 
 SECTION 18. Each Guarantor
confirms that an executed (or conformed) copy of each of the Guaranteed Documents has been made available to its principal executive officers, that such officers are familiar with the contents thereof and of this Agreement, and that it has executed
and delivered this Agreement after reviewing the terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement, the other Guaranteed Documents and this Agreement and such other information as it has deemed appropriate in order to make its own credit analysis and
decision to execute and deliver this Agreement. Each Guarantor confirms that it has made its own independent investigation with respect to the creditworthiness of the Guaranteed Parties and their Subsidiaries and Affiliates and is not executing and
delivering this Agreement in reliance on any representation or warranty by the Agent or any other Creditor or any other Person acting on behalf of the 

  
 C-6

 
Agent or any other Creditor as to such creditworthiness. Each Guarantor expressly assumes all responsibilities to remain informed of the financial condition of the Guaranteed Parties and their
respective Subsidiaries and Affiliates and any circumstances affecting (a) any Guaranteed Party’s or any of its Subsidiary’s or Affiliate’s ability to perform its obligations under the Loan Agreement and the other Guaranteed
Documents to which it is a party, or (b) any other guaranty for all or any part of such Guaranteed Party’s or such Subsidiary’s or Affiliate’s payment and performance obligations thereunder; and each Guarantor further agrees that
the Agent and the other Creditors shall have no duty to advise any Guarantor of information known to them regarding such circumstances or the risks such Guarantor undertakes in this Agreement. 

SECTION 19. Each Guarantor covenants and agrees that on and after the date hereof and until this Agreement is terminated in
accordance with its terms, such Guarantor shall take, or will refrain from taking, as the case may be, all actions that are necessary to be taken or not taken so that no Default or Event of Default, is caused by the actions or inactions of such
Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries. 
 SECTION 20. The relationship among any Guarantor and its Affiliates, on the
one hand, and the Agent and the other Creditors, on the other hand, is solely that of debtor and creditor, and the Agent and the other Creditors have no fiduciary or other special relationship with any Guarantor or any of its Affiliates, and no term
or provision of any Guaranteed Document, no course of dealing, no written or oral communication, or other action, shall be construed so as to deem such relationship to be other than that of debtor and creditor. 

SECTION 21. This Guarantee may be released with respect to any Subsidiary that ceases to be a Subsidiary Guarantor as a
result of a transaction that is permitted by the terms of the Loan Agreement. 
 SECTION 22. This Agreement may be
executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one instrument; provided that this Agreement shall be construed as a separate agreement with respect to
each Guarantor and may be amended, modified, supplemented, waived or released with respect to any Guarantor without the approval of any other Guarantor and without affecting the obligations of any other Guarantor hereunder. This Agreement shall be
effective with respect to any Guarantor when a counterpart which bears the signature of such Guarantor shall have been delivered to the Agent. 
 SECTION 23. EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR
ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY AMENDMENTS, WAIVERS OR OTHER MODIFICATIONS RELATING TO ANY OF THE FOREGOING), OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO
REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES
HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 23. 
 SECTION 24. Upon execution and delivery by the Agent and any subsequently acquired or organized Domestic Subsidiary of an instrument in the form of Annex 1 attached hereto, such subsequently
acquired or organized Domestic Subsidiary shall, if so required by the terms of the Loan Agreement, become a Guarantor hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Guarantor herein.

  
 C-7

 
The execution and delivery of any such instrument shall not require the consent of any Guarantor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall remain in full force and
effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Guarantor as a party to this Agreement.

 ANNEX 1 to the 
 Guaranty of Payment (Credit Parties) 
 SUPPLEMENT NO. dated as of
                    , 20[    ] to the GUARANTY OF PAYMENT (CREDIT PARTIES), dated as of February     , 2012
(the “Agreement”), among ABERCROMBIE & FITCH CO., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), and each direct and indirect Subsidiary of Parent party thereto (each a “Domestic Subsidiary” and,
together with Parent and any other Domestic Subsidiaries that become parties hereto as contemplated by Section 24 thereof, referred to herein individually as a “Guarantor” and collectively as the “Guarantors”),
and PNC BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as global administrative agent (the “Agent”) for the lenders (the “Lenders”) party to the Term Loan Agreement, dated as of February     , 2012 (as amended,
supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”), among Abercrombie & Fitch Management Co. (the “Company”), Parent, the Lenders party thereto, the Agent, PNC Capital Markets LLC,
as co-lead arranger and co-bookrunner, J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, as co-lead arranger and co-bookrunner, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as the Syndication Agent, Fifth Third Bank, as co-documentation agent and Citizens Bank of Pennsylvania, as
co-documentation agent. 
 The Guarantors have entered into the Agreement in order to induce the Lenders to make Loans to the
Borrower (such term and other capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein having the meanings assigned to such terms in the Agreement and the Loan Agreement). Section 24 of the Agreement provides that additional Domestic
Subsidiaries may become Guarantors under the Agreement by execution and delivery of an instrument in the form of this Supplement. The undersigned Domestic Subsidiary (the “New Guarantor”) is executing this Supplement to become a
Guarantor under the Agreement. As a Subsidiary, the New Guarantor acknowledges that it derives substantial benefits from the extension of credit to the Borrower under the Loan Agreement. 

Accordingly, the Agent and the New Guarantor agree as follows: 

SECTION 1. In accordance with Section 24 of the Agreement, the New Guarantor by its signature below
becomes a Guarantor under the Agreement with the same force and effect as if originally named therein as a Guarantor and the New Guarantor hereby agrees to all the terms and provisions of the Agreement applicable to it as a Guarantor thereunder.
Each reference to a “Guarantor” in the Agreement shall be deemed to include the New Guarantor. The Agreement is hereby incorporated herein by reference. 
 SECTION 2. The New Guarantor represents and warrants that this Supplement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by it and constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation,
enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and equitable principles of general applicability. 

SECTION 3. This Supplement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when
taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Supplement shall become effective when the Agent shall have received a counterpart of this Supplement that bears the signature of the New Guarantor. 

SECTION 4. Except as expressly supplemented hereby, the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. 

SECTION 5. THIS SUPPLEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER AND THEREUNDER SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH AND BE GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF OHIO WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES. 

  
 C-11

 SECTION 6. In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this
Supplement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, no party hereto shall be required to comply with such provision for so long as such provision is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable and the validity, legality and
enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and in the Agreement, and of any such provision with respect to any other Guarantor, shall not in any way be affected or impaired. The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to
replace any invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions, the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions. 

SECTION 7. All communications and notices hereunder shall be in writing and given as provided in Section 15 of the
Agreement. All communications and notices hereunder to the New Guarantor shall be given to it at the address set forth under its signature below. 
 SECTION 8. The New Guarantor agrees to reimburse the Agent for its out-of-pocket expenses in connection with this Supplement, including the fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel for
the Agent. 
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the New Guarantor and the Agent have duly executed this Supplement to the Agreement as of the
day and year first above written.

 Schedule 4.06 
 Disclosed Matters 
 On December 21, 2007, Spencer de la Cruz, a former employee, filed
an action against Abercrombie & Fitch Co. and Abercrombie & Fitch Stores, Inc. (collectively, “Defendants”) in the Superior Court of Orange County, California. He sought to allege, on behalf of himself and a putative
class of past and present employees in the period beginning on December 19, 2003, claims for failure to provide meal breaks, for waiting time penalties, for failure to keep accurate employment records, and for unfair business practices. By
successive amendments, plaintiff added 10 additional plaintiffs and additional claims seeking injunctive relief, unpaid wages, penalties, interest, and attorneys’ fees and costs. Defendants have denied the material allegations of
plaintiffs’ complaints throughout the litigation and have asserted numerous affirmative defenses. On July 23, 2010, plaintiffs moved for class certification in the action. On December 9, 2010, after briefing and argument, the trial
court granted in part and denied in part plaintiffs’ motion, certifying sub-classes to pursue meal break claims, meal premium pay claims, work related travel claims, travel expense claims, termination pay claims, reporting time claims, bag
check claims, pay record claims, and minimum wage claims. On January 25, 2012, the parties entered into a binding memorandum of understanding, which is intended to be a full and final resolution of the action. Pursuant to this proposed
settlement, which will be documented by a settlement agreement, the maximum amount payable by the Defendants is $19.6 million. After payment of attorneys’ fees and costs related to the settlement, the net remaining amount will be subject to a
50% floor. If claims actually submitted do not exceed such floor, the Defendants will retain the difference between the net settlement amount and such floor. Based on the terms of the proposed settlement, Abercrombie & Fitch Co. believes
that it has fully accrued for the settlement as of the end of the fiscal year ended January 28, 2011. The proposed settlement is subject to court approval.
