if the beneficial interest is being exchanged for or transferred to a Person who will take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Note, such other Global Note will be increased accordingly and an endorsement will be
made on such Global Note by the Trustee or by the Depositary at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such increase. 
 (i) General
Provisions Relating to Transfers and Exchanges. 
 (1) To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Issuer
will execute and the Trustee will authenticate Global Notes and Definitive Notes upon receipt of an authentication order in accordance with Section 2.02 or at the Registrar’s request. 

(2) No service charge will be made to a Holder of a Global Note or to a Holder of a Definitive Note for any registration of
transfer or exchange, but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes or similar governmental charge payable upon
exchange or transfer pursuant to Sections 2.10, 3.06, and 9.05 hereof). The Registrar will not be required to register the transfer of or exchange any Note selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being
redeemed in part. 
 (3) All Global Notes and Definitive Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Global Notes or
Definitive Notes will be the valid obligations of the Issuer, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture, as the Global Notes or Definitive Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange. 

(4) The Issuer will not be required: 

(i) to issue, to register the transfer of or to exchange any Notes during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days
before the day of any selection of Notes for redemption under Section 3.02 hereof and ending at the close of business on the day of selection; 

(ii) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed
portion of any Note being redeemed in part; 
 (iii) to register the transfer of or to exchange a Note between a Record Date
and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date; or 
 (iv) to register the transfer of any Note which has been surrendered for
repayment at the option of Holder, except the portion, if any, of such Note not to be so repaid. 
 (5) Prior to due
presentment for the registration of a transfer of any Note, the Trustee, any Agent and the Issuer may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal
of and interest on such Notes and for all other purposes, and none of the Trustee, any Agent or the Issuer shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 

(6) The Trustee will authenticate Global Notes and Definitive Notes in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02
hereof. 
 (7) All orders and instructions required to be submitted to the Registrar or the Issuer pursuant to this
Section 2.06 to effect a registration of transfer or exchange may be submitted by facsimile.

 Section 2.07 Replacement Notes. 

If any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Trustee or the Issuer or the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss
or theft of any Note, the Issuer will issue and the Trustee, upon receipt of an authentication order in accordance with Section 2.02, will authenticate a replacement Note if the Trustee’s requirements are met. In every case of any request
for a substitute or replacement Note, security or indemnity must be supplied by the Holder of such Note that is sufficient in the judgment of the Trustee and the Issuer to protect the Issuer, the Trustee, any Agent and any authenticating agent from
any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Issuer may charge for its expenses in replacing a Note. 
 Every replacement
Note is an additional obligation of the Issuer and will be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with all other Notes duly issued hereunder. 

Notwithstanding the provisions of the previous two paragraphs, in case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note has become or is
about to become due and payable, the Issuer in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Note, pay such Note. 
 Section 2.08 Outstanding Notes.

 The Notes “Outstanding” at any time are all the Notes authenticated by the Trustee except for: 

(1) Notes theretofore cancelled by the Trustee or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; 

(2) Notes, or portions thereof, for whose payment or redemption or repayment at the option of the Holder money in the necessary
amount has been theretofore deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent (other than the Issuer) in trust or set aside and segregated in trust by the Issuer (if the Issuer shall act as its own Paying Agent) for the Holders of such Notes,
provided that if such Notes are to be redeemed, notice of such redemption has been duly given pursuant to this Indenture or provision therefor satisfactory to the Trustee has been made; 

(3) Notes, except to the extent provided in Sections 8.02 and 8.03, with respect to which the Issuer has effected defeasance
and/or covenant defeasance as provided in Article 8; and 
 (4) Notes which have been paid pursuant to Section 4.01 or
11.01 or in exchange for or in lieu of which other Notes have been authenticated and delivered pursuant to this Indenture, other than any such Notes in respect of which there shall have been presented to the Trustee proof satisfactory to it that
such Notes are held by a bona fide purchaser in whose hands such Notes are valid obligations of the Issuer. 
 Section 2.09 Treasury Notes. 

In determining whether the Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Notes have given any request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, waiver or consent, and for the purpose of making the calculations required by TIA § 313, Notes owned by the Issuer or any other obligor upon the Notes or any Affiliate of the Issuer or of such other obligor shall be
disregarded and deemed not to be Outstanding, except that in determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in making such calculation or in relying upon any such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver, only Notes
which a Responsible Officer actually knows to be so owned shall be so disregarded. Notes so owned which have been pledged in good faith may be regarded as Outstanding if the pledgee establishes to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s
right so to act with respect to such Notes and that the pledgee is not the Issuer or any other obligor upon the Notes or any Affiliate of the Issuer or of such other obligor. 

  
 - 16 - 

 Section 2.10 Temporary Notes. 

Until certificates representing Notes are ready for delivery, the Issuer may prepare and the Trustee, upon receipt of an authentication order
in accordance with Section 2.02, will authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes will be substantially in the form of certificated Notes but may have variations that the Issuer considers appropriate for temporary Notes and as may be
reasonably acceptable to the Trustee. Without unreasonable delay, the Issuer will prepare and the Trustee will authenticate definitive Notes in exchange for temporary Notes. 

Holders of temporary Notes will be entitled to all of the benefits of this Indenture. 

Section 2.11 Cancellation. 
 The
Issuer at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and Paying Agent will forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee and no one else will cancel
all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment, replacement or cancellation and will dispose of canceled Notes (subject to the record retention requirement of the Exchange Act). The Issuer may not issue new Notes to replace
Notes that it has paid or that have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, except for replacement Notes for mutilated Notes pursuant to Section 2.07 hereof. 

Section 2.12 Defaulted Interest. 
 If
the Issuer defaults in a payment of interest on the Notes, it will pay the defaulted interest in any lawful manner plus, to the extent lawful, interest payable on the defaulted interest, to the Persons who are Holders of the Notes on a subsequent
special record date, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof. The Issuer will notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed
payment. The Issuer will fix or cause to be fixed each such special record date and payment date, provided that no such special record date may be less than 10 days prior to the related payment date for such defaulted interest. At least 15
days before the special record date, the Issuer (or, upon the written request of the Issuer, the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Issuer) will mail or cause to be mailed to Holders of Notes a notice that states the special record date,
the related payment date and the amount of such interest to be paid on such Notes.

 Section 3.02 Selection of Notes to Be Redeemed. 

If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed or purchased in an offer to purchase at any time, the Trustee will select the particular Notes
for redemption or purchase from the Outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption, as follows: 
 (1) if the Notes
are listed on any national securities exchange, in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange on which the Notes are listed; or 

(2) if the Notes are not listed on any national securities exchange, on a pro rata basis, by lot or by any such similar method
in accordance with the procedures of DTC. 
 In the event of partial redemption by lot, the particular Notes to be redeemed will be
selected, unless otherwise provided in this Indenture, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption date by the Trustee. 

The Trustee will promptly notify the Issuer in writing of the Notes selected for redemption or purchase and, in the case of any Note selected
for partial redemption or purchase, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed or purchased. Notes and portions of Notes selected will be in amounts equal to $2,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000; provided, however, that if all of the
Outstanding Notes of a Holder are to be redeemed or purchased, the entire amount of such Notes held by such Holder, even if not a multiple of $1,000, shall be redeemed or purchased. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of this
Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption or purchase also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase. 
 Section 3.03
Notice of Redemption. 
 At least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, the Issuer will mail or cause to be mailed,
by first class mail, a notice of redemption to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with
a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Article 8 or 11 of this Indenture. Any notice that is mailed to the Holders of Notes in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been
duly given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. 
 The notice will identify the Notes to be redeemed and will state: 

(1) the redemption date; 

(2) the redemption price, including the accrued interest to the redemption date and any make-whole amount or premium, if
applicable; 
 (3) if any Note is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount of such Note to be redeemed and
that, after the redemption date upon surrender of such Note, a new Note or Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion will be issued upon cancellation of the original Note; 

(4) the name and address of the Paying Agent; 

(5) that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent at the Place of Payment to collect the redemption
price; 
 (6) that, unless the Issuer defaults in making such redemption payment, interest on Notes called for redemption
ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date; 
 (7) the paragraph of the Notes and/or Section of this Indenture
pursuant to which the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed; and 
 (8) that no representation is made as to the
correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes. 
 At the Issuer’s request,
the Trustee will give the notice of redemption in the Issuer’s name and at its expense; provided, however, that the Issuer has delivered to the Trustee, at least 45 days (or such shorter period of time as is satisfactory to the
Trustee) prior to the redemption date, an Officers’ Certificate requesting that the Trustee give such notice and setting forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in the preceding paragraph. 

  
 - 18 - 

 Section 3.04 Effect of Notice of Redemption. 

Once notice of redemption is mailed in accordance with Section 3.03 hereof, Notes called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable
on the redemption date at the redemption price therein specified. A notice of redemption of Notes may not be conditional. 
 Section 3.05 Deposit of
Redemption or Purchase Price. 
 Prior to 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the redemption or purchase date, the Issuer will deposit with the
Trustee or with the Paying Agent money in the currency or currencies, currency unit or units or composite currency or currencies in which the Notes are payable sufficient to pay the redemption or purchase price of and accrued interest on all Notes
to be redeemed or purchased on that date. The Trustee or the Paying Agent will promptly return to the Issuer any money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Issuer in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the redemption or purchase
price of, and accrued interest on, all Notes to be redeemed or purchased. 
 If the Issuer complies with the provisions of the preceding
paragraph, on and after the redemption or purchase date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption or purchase. If a Note is redeemed or purchased on or after a Record Date but on or prior to the
related Interest Payment Date, then any accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note was registered at the close of business on such Record Date; provided, however, that installments of interest on
Notes whose maturity is on or prior to the redemption date shall be payable to the Holders of such Notes, or one or more predecessor Notes, registered as such at the close of business on the Record Date. If any Note called for redemption or purchase
is not so paid upon surrender for redemption or purchase because of the failure of the Issuer to comply with the preceding paragraph, interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the redemption or purchase date until such principal is paid,
and to the extent lawful on any interest not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the rate provided in the Notes and in Section 4.01 hereof. 

Section 3.06 Notes Redeemed or Purchased in Part. 

Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed or purchased in part at a Place of Payment therefor (with, if the Issuer or the Trustee so requires,
due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing), the Issuer will issue and, upon receipt of an authentication
order in accordance with Section 2.02, the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail, or cause to be transferred by book entry, to each Holder at the expense of the Issuer a new Note of any authorized denomination as requested by the Holder
in an aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed or unpurchased portion of the principal of the Note so surrendered and the Paying Agent will promptly mail to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed or purchased payment for
such Notes. 
 Section 3.07 Optional Redemption. 

The Issuer will not be entitled to redeem all or any portion of the Notes at its option except as provided in this section. The Issuer
will be entitled at its option to redeem all or any portion of the Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of such Notes plus the Applicable Premium as of, and any accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the
redemption date (subject to the right of the holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date); provided that if the Notes are redeemed on or after March 1, 2027 (three months prior to
the maturity date, the “Par Call Date”), the redemption price shall equal 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date.

 Any redemption pursuant to this Section 3.07 shall be made pursuant to the provisions of
Sections 3.01 through 3.06.

ARTICLE 4 
 COVENANTS 

Section 4.01 Payment of Notes. 
 The
Issuer will pay or cause to be paid the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes on the dates, in the currency or currency unit and in the manner provided in the terms of the Notes and this Indenture. Principal, premium, if any, and
interest will be considered paid on the date due if the Paying Agent, if other than the Issuer, or a Subsidiary thereof, holds as of 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the due date money deposited by the Issuer in immediately available funds and designated
for and sufficient to pay all principal, premium, if any, and interest then due. 
 The Issuer will pay interest (including post-petition
interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal at the rate equal to 1% per annum in excess of the then applicable interest rate on the Notes to the extent lawful; the Issuer will pay interest (including post-petition
interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace period) at the same rate to the extent lawful. 

Section 4.02 Maintenance of Office or Agency. 

The Issuer will maintain in each Place of Payment for the Notes an office or agency (which may be an office of the Trustee or an Affiliate of
the Trustee, Registrar or co-registrar) where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for payment, where the Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Issuer in respect of
the Notes and this Indenture may be served. The Issuer will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Issuer fails to maintain any such required office or
agency or fails to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee. 

The Issuer may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered
for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission will in any manner relieve the Issuer of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in the Place
of Payment for such purposes. The Issuer will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in the location of any such other office or agency. 

The Issuer hereby designates as a Place of Payment for the Notes the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee in Kansas City, Missouri as one
such office or agency of the Issuer in accordance with Section 2.03 hereof.

Results of Operations” and, with respect to the annual information only, a report on the annual financial statements by the Issuer’s certified independent accountants; and 

  
 - 20 - 

 (2) all current reports that would be required to be filed with the Commission on

 Whether or not required by the Commission, the Issuer shall file a copy of
all of the information and reports referred to in clauses (1) and (2) above with the Commission for public availability within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and regulations (unless the Commission will not accept
such a filing) and make such information available to securities analysts and prospective investors upon request. 
 The quarterly and
annual financial information required by the preceding paragraphs will include a reasonably detailed presentation, either on the face of the financial statements or in the footnotes thereto, and in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations, of the financial condition and results of operations of the Issuer, as applicable, and its Restricted Subsidiaries separate from the financial condition and results of operations of the Unrestricted
Subsidiaries of the Issuer. 
 Section 4.04 Compliance Certificate. 

(a) The Issuer and each Guarantor shall deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, an Officers’
Certificate stating that a review of the activities of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries during the preceding fiscal year has been made under the supervision of the signing Officers with a view to determining whether the Issuer has kept,
observed, performed and fulfilled its obligations under this Indenture, and further stating, as to each such Officer signing such certificate, that to the best of his or her knowledge the Issuer has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled each and
every covenant contained in this Indenture and is not in default in the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture (or, if a Default or Event of Default has occurred, describing all such Defaults or
Events of Default of which he or she may have knowledge and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto) and that to the best of his or her knowledge no event has occurred and remains in existence by reason of which
payments on account of the principal of or interest, if any, on the Notes is prohibited or if such event has occurred, a description of the event and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. For purposes of this
Section 4.04, such compliance shall be determined without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice under this Indenture. 

(b) So long as any of the Notes are outstanding, the Issuer will deliver to the Trustee, forthwith upon any Officer becoming aware of any
Default or Event of Default, an Officers’ Certificate specifying such Default or Event of Default and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. 

Section 4.05 Existence. 

Except as permitted by Article 5 and Section 10.04, the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall do all things necessary to
preserve and keep their existence, rights and franchises; provided, however, that the existence of a Restricted Subsidiary may be terminated if the Board of Directors of the Issuer determines that it is in the best interests of the Issuer to
do so and the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries will not be required to preserve any right or franchise if it determines that the preservation of that right or franchise is no longer desirable in the conduct of its business and that its loss is
not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders of Notes. 
 Section 4.06 Limitations on Incurrence of Debt. 

(a) The Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, incur any additional Debt if, immediately after giving effect to
the incurrence of such additional Debt and the application of the proceeds thereof, the aggregate principal amount of all of the Issuer’s and its Restricted Subsidiaries’ outstanding Debt on a consolidated basis determined in accordance
with GAAP would be greater than 60% of the sum of (without duplication): 

  
 - 21 - 

 (1) the Total Assets of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries as of the end
of the calendar year or quarter covered by the Issuer’s Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as the case may be, most recently filed with the Commission (or, if such filing is not permitted under the Exchange Act, as of
the end of the calendar quarter covered by the Issuer’s most recent report filed with the Trustee) prior to the incurrence of such additional Debt (the “Measurement Date”); and 

(2) the purchase price of any Real Estate Assets or mortgages receivable acquired, and the amount of any securities offering
proceeds received (to the extent that such proceeds were not used to acquire Real Estate Assets or mortgages receivable or used to reduce Debt), by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis since the Measurement Date
(such sum of clauses (1) and (2) being collectively referred to as “Adjusted Total Assets”). 
 (b) In addition to
the limitations in Section 4.06(a), the Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, incur any Secured Debt if, immediately after giving effect to the incurrence of such additional Secured Debt and the application of the
proceeds thereof, the aggregate principal amount of all of the Issuer’s and its Restricted Subsidiaries’ outstanding Secured Debt on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP is greater than 40% of Adjusted Total Assets. 

(c) In addition to the limitations in Sections 4.06(a) and (b), the Issuer shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, incur
any Debt if the ratio of Consolidated Income Available for Debt Service to the Annual Debt Service for the four consecutive fiscal quarters ended on the Measurement Date shall have been less than 1.5x, on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the
incurrence of such Debt and to the application of the proceeds therefrom, and calculated on the assumption that: 
 (1) such
Debt and any other Debt incurred by the Issuer and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis since the first day of such four-quarter period and the application of the proceeds therefrom, including to refinance other Debt, had been
incurred at the beginning of such period; 
 (2) the repayment or retirement of any other Debt by the Issuer and any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis since the first day of such four-quarter period had been repaid or retired at the beginning of such period (except that, in making such computation, the amount of Debt under any revolving credit
facility shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of such Debt during such period); 
 (3) in the case of
Acquired Debt or Debt incurred in connection with any acquisition since the first day of such four-quarter period, the related acquisition had occurred as of the first day of such period with appropriate pro forma adjustments to, among other things,
Consolidated Income Available for Debt Service, with respect to such acquisition being included in such pro forma calculation; and 

(4) in the case of any acquisition or disposition by the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis
of any asset or group of assets since the first day of such four-quarter period, whether by merger, stock purchase or sale, or asset purchase or sale, such acquisition or disposition or any related repayment of Debt had occurred as of the first day
of such period with the appropriate pro forma adjustments with respect to such acquisition or disposition being included in such pro forma calculation. 

If the Debt giving rise to the need to make the foregoing calculation or any other Debt incurred after the first day of the relevant
four-quarter period bears interest at a floating rate then, for purposes of calculating the Annual Debt Service, the interest rate on such Debt will be computed on a pro forma basis as if the average interest rate in effect during the entire such
four-quarter period had been the applicable rate for the entire such period; provided, however, that for purposes of calculating Annual Debt Service for Debt for which there is a corresponding Hedging Obligation, Annual Debt Service shall be
calculated after giving effect to the Hedging Obligation. 

  
 - 22 - 

 Section 4.07 Maintenance of Total Unencumbered Assets. 

The Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall maintain Total Unencumbered Assets as of the end of each fiscal quarter of not less than 150%
of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Issuer’s and its Restricted Subsidiaries’ Unsecured Debt as of the end of each fiscal quarter, all calculated on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP. 

Section 4.08 Additional Guarantees. 

The Issuer shall and shall cause each Domestic Subsidiary that is a guarantor of or borrower under the Credit Agreement and the Existing Notes
to become a Guarantor and execute a supplemental indenture and deliver a customary Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Trustee within ten Business Days of the date on which it incurred such Debt. The form of supplemental indenture is attached as
Exhibit B to this Indenture. 
 Section 4.09 Maintenance of Properties. 

The Issuer will, or will cause its Subsidiaries and their respective tenants to, maintain, keep in good condition and make all necessary
repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and improvements of the Issuer’s and its Subsidiaries’ properties that Issuer deems necessary so that the business carried on in connection with those properties may be properly and
advantageously conducted at all times. The Issuer or its Subsidiaries may, however, sell or otherwise dispose for value the Issuer’s or any of its Subsidiary’s properties in the ordinary course of business. 

Section 4.10 Insurance. 
 The Issuer
will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries, and Issuer will cause the Issuer’s and its Subsidiaries’ tenants to maintain, in accordance with their respective leases, customary policies of insurance with responsible companies, taking
into consideration prevailing market conditions and availability, for all of the Issuer’s and its Subsidiaries’ properties and operations; provided however, the requirements in this Section 4.10 shall not require the purchase or
maintenance of insurance by a tenant in excess of the requirements set forth in the applicable lease.

 The Issuer may not, directly or indirectly, (1) consolidate or merge with or into another
Person (whether or not the Issuer is the surviving corporation); or (2) sell, assign, transfer, convey, lease (other than to an unaffiliated operator in the ordinary course of business) or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the
properties or assets of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole, in one or more related transactions, to another Person; unless: 

(1) either: 

(i) the Issuer is the surviving corporation or trust; or 

(ii) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Issuer) or to which such sale,
assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition has been made is a corporation or trust organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state of the United States or the District of Columbia; 

  
 - 23 - 

 (2) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other
than the Issuer) or the Person to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition has been made assumes all the obligations of the Issuer under the Notes and this Indenture pursuant to agreements reasonably satisfactory to the
Trustee; and 
 (3) immediately after such transaction, on a pro forma basis giving effect to such transaction or series of
transactions (and treating any obligation of the Issuer or any Restricted Subsidiary incurred in connection with or as a result of such transaction or series of transactions as having been incurred at the time of such transaction), no Default or

Upon any consolidation or merger, or any sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of
the properties or assets of the Issuer in accordance with Section 5.01, the successor Person formed by such consolidation or into which the Issuer is merged or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition is made,
shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Issuer under this Indenture with the same effect as if such successor initially had been named as the Issuer herein. Such successor thereupon may cause to be

instead of the Issuer, and subject to all the terms, conditions and limitations in this Indenture prescribed, the Trustee shall authenticate and shall deliver any Notes which previously shall have been signed and delivered by the Officers of the
Issuer to the Trustee for authentication, and any Notes which such successor thereafter shall cause to be signed and delivered to the Trustee for that purpose. All the Notes so issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under
this Indenture as the Notes theretofore or thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Notes had been issued at the date of the execution hereof. 

In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale, lease or conveyance, such changes in phraseology and form (but not in substance) may be made
in the Notes thereafter to be issued as may be appropriate.

Indenture and the Notes following a consolidation or merger, or any sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of 90% or more of the assets of the predecessor in accordance with the foregoing provisions, the predecessor shall be
released from those obligations.

DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES 
 Section 6.01

 (1) the Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiaries do not pay the principal or any premium on the Notes when due and payable;

 (2) the Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiaries do not pay interest on the Notes within 30 days after the applicable due
date; 

  
 - 24 - 

 (3) the Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiaries do not comply with their
obligations under Section 5.01; 
 (4) the Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiaries remain in breach of any other term of

(5) final judgments aggregating in excess of $50.0 million (exclusive of amounts covered by insurance) are entered against the
Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries and are not paid, discharged or stayed for a period of 60 days; 
 (6) the Issuer or
its Restricted Subsidiaries default under any of their indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount exceeding $50.0 million after the expiration of any applicable grace period, which default results in the acceleration of the maturity of such
indebtedness. Such default is not an Event of Default if the other indebtedness is discharged, or the acceleration is rescinded or annulled, within a period of 30 days after the Issuer or its Restricted Subsidiaries receive notice specifying the
default and requiring that they discharge the other indebtedness or cause the acceleration to be rescinded or annulled. Either the Trustee or the Holders of more than 25% in principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes may send the notice; 

(7) the Issuer or any of its Significant Subsidiaries, or any group of Subsidiaries that, taken as a whole, would constitute a
Significant Subsidiary:

(ii) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case under Bankruptcy Law; 

(iii) consents to the appointment of a custodian of it or for all or substantially all of its property; 

(iv) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; or 

(v) an admission in writing by the Issuer of its inability to pay its debts as they become due; 

(8) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that:

Subsidiaries that, taken as a whole, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary; or 
 (iii) orders the liquidation of the
Issuer or any of its Significant Subsidiaries, or any group of Subsidiaries that, taken as a whole, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary; 

(iv) and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive days; or 

  
 - 25 - 

 (9) any Note Guarantee of a Significant Subsidiary of the Issuer ceases to be in
full force and effect or is declared null and void or any Guarantor denies or disaffirms its obligations under this Indenture or any Note Guarantee other than by reason of the release of any such Note Guarantee in accordance with this Indenture.

 Section 6.02 Acceleration. 
 In
the case of an Event of Default specified in clause (7) or (8) of Section 6.01, all Outstanding Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default with respect to the Notes at
the time Outstanding occurs and has not been cured, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes may declare the entire principal amount of the Notes to be due and immediately payable by
written notice to the Issuer and the Trustee. Upon any such declaration, such principal amount (or specified amount) of the Notes shall become due and payable immediately. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then
Outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may on behalf of all of the Holders rescind and annul an acceleration and its consequences if the rescission or annulment would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of
Default (except nonpayment of principal, interest or premium that has become due solely because of the acceleration) have been cured or waived. 

Section 6.03 Other Remedies. 
 If an
Event of Default occurs and is continuing with respect to the Notes at the time Outstanding, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of principal, premium and interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any
provision of the Notes or this Indenture. 
 The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Notes or does not
produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Holder of a Note in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in
the Event of Default. All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law. 
 Section 6.04 Waiver of Past Defaults. 

Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes by written notice to the Trustee may on behalf
of the Holders of all of the Notes waive an existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences hereunder, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium or interest on, the Notes (excluding in
connection with an offer to purchase) or in respect of a covenant or provision of this Indenture which under Article 9 may not be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note; provided, however, that the
Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including any related payment default that resulted from such acceleration as provided in Section 6.02. Upon any
such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right
consequent thereon. 
 Section 6.05 Control by Majority. 

Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes may direct the time, method and place of conducting any
proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on it with respect to the Notes. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture that the
Trustee determines may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders of Notes, that may involve the Trustee in personal liability , or that the Trustee determines in good faith may be unduly prejudicial to the rights of Holders of the Notes
not joining in the giving of such direction and may take any other action it deems proper that is not inconsistent with any such direction received from Holders of Notes. 

  
 - 26 - 

 Section 6.06 Limitation on Suits. 

A Holder of a Note may pursue a remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Notes only if: 

(1) such Holder has given the Trustee written notice that an Event of Default with respect to the Notes has occurred and
remains uncured; 
 (2) the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of all Outstanding Notes have made a
written request that the Trustee take action because of the Event of Default, and offered indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against the cost and other liabilities of taking that action; 

(3) the Trustee has not taken action for 60 days after receipt of the notice and offer of indemnity; and 

(4) the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of all Outstanding Notes have not given the Trustee a direction
inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period. 
 A Holder of any Notes may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of
another Holder of a Note or to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder of a Note. 
 Section 6.07 Rights of Holders of Notes to Receive
Payment. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder of any Note to receive payment of principal,
premium and interest on such Note, on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Note (excluding in connection with an offer to purchase), or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not
be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder. 
 Section 6.08 Collection Suit by Trustee. 

If an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(1) or (2) occurs and is continuing with respect to the Notes, the Trustee is
authorized to recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Issuer for the whole amount of principal, premium and interest remaining unpaid on the Notes and interest on overdue principal and, to the extent lawful,
interest and such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel. 

Section 6.09 Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. 

The Trustee is authorized to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the
claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and the Holders of the Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer or any other
obligor upon the Notes, their creditors or their property and shall be entitled and empowered to collect, receive and distribute any money or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and any custodian in any such judicial proceeding
is hereby authorized by each Holder of Notes to make such payments to the Trustee, and in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders of Notes, to pay to the Trustee any amount due to it for the
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07 hereof out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and
shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Holders of Notes may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or
otherwise. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder of a Note any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or
the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder of a Note in any such proceeding.

First: to the Trustee, its agents and attorneys for amounts due under Section 7.07 hereof, including payment of all
compensation, expense and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Trustee and the costs and expenses of collection; 

Second: to Holders of Notes in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected for amounts

by it as a Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’
fees, against any party litigant in the suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section 6.11 does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder of a Note pursuant
to Section 6.06 hereof, or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes.

request for all disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services (including the compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel), except any such
disbursement, advances and expenses as shall be determined to have been caused by the Trustee’s own negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. Additionally, if it should become necessary that the Trustee perform extraordinary services, it
shall be entitled to reasonable extra compensation and to reimbursement for reasonable extraordinary expenses in connection therewith; provided that if such extraordinary services or expense are occasioned by the negligence, bad faith, or willful
conduct of the Trustee, it shall not be entitled to such compensation or reimbursement. 
 (b) The Issuer and each Guarantor will indemnify
the Trustee against any and all losses, liabilities, claims or expenses incurred by it arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties under this Indenture, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this
Indenture against the Issuer and the Guarantors (including this Section 7.07) and defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Issuer, the Guarantors or any Holder or any other Person) or liability in connection with the exercise
or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder, except to the extent any such loss, liability or expense may be attributable to its negligence, bad faith, or willful misconduct. The Trustee will notify the Issuer in writing promptly of any
claim of which a Responsible Officer has received written notice for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Issuer will not relieve the Issuer or any of the Guarantors of their obligations hereunder. The Issuer or such
Guarantor will defend the claim and the Trustee will cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may have separate counsel and the Issuer will pay the fees and expenses of such counsel. Neither the Issuer nor any Guarantor need pay for any settlement made
without its consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. 
 (c) The obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantors under this
Section 7.07 will survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 
 (d) To secure the Issuer’s payment obligations in
this Section 7.07, the Trustee will have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal and interest on particular Notes. Such Lien will survive the satisfaction
and discharge of this Indenture. 
 (e) When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in
Section 6.01(8) or (9) hereof occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law.

Outstanding Notes, the Issuer and the Guarantors will, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 8.04, be released from each of their obligations under the covenants contained in Sections 4.02, 4.03, 4.04, 4.05, 4.06,
4.07, 4.08, 4.09, 4.10, 5.01 and 10.04 with respect to such Outstanding Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and such Notes will
thereafter be deemed not “Outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but will continue to be deemed
“Outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder. For this purpose, Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the Outstanding Notes and the related Notes Guarantees, the Issuer and the Guarantors may omit to comply with and will have
no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any
other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply will not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 6.01 hereof, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes and the
related Notes Guarantees will be unaffected thereby. In addition, upon the Issuer’s exercise under Section 8.01 hereof of the option applicable to this Section 8.03 with respect to any Outstanding Notes, subject to the satisfaction of
the conditions set forth in Section 8.04 hereof, Sections 6.01(4) through 6.01(7) hereof will not constitute Events of Default. 

Section 8.04 Conditions to Legal or Covenant Defeasance. 

In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance under either Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof with respect to any
Outstanding Notes: 
 (1) the Issuer irrevocably deposits with the Trustee for the Notes, in trust, for the benefit of the
Holders, money in such currency or currencies, or currency unit or currency units, in which such Note is then specified as payable at maturity, non-callable Government Obligations applicable to such Notes (determined on the basis of the currency or
currencies, or currency unit or currency units, in which such Notes are then specified as payable at maturity), or any combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public
accountants, to pay the principal of, premium and interest on such Outstanding Notes on the stated date for payment thereof or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be; 

(2) in the case of an election under Section 8.02 hereof, the Issuer has delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in
the United States reasonably acceptable to such Trustee confirming that: 
 (i) the Issuer has received from, or there has
been published by, the IRS a ruling; or 
 (ii) since the date of this Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable
federal income tax law, 
 in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such Opinion of Counsel shall confirm that, the Holders will not recognize
income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance
had not occurred; 
 (3) in the case of an election under Section 8.03 hereof, the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee an
Opinion of Counsel in the United States reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that the beneficial owners of the Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will
be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred; 

  
 - 34 - 

 (4) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred in respect of the Notes
and be continuing on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit); 

(5) the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance
will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any material agreement or instrument (other than this Indenture) to which the Issuer or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is a party or by which the Issuer or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries is bound; 
 (6) the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that
the deposit was not made by Issuer with the intent of preferring the Holders over the other creditors of Issuer with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding any other creditors of the Issuer or others; and 

(7) the Issuer must deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all
conditions precedent provided for or relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with. 
 Section 8.05 Deposited
Money and Government Securities to Be Held in Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. 
 Subject to Section 8.06 hereof, all money or
Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee, collectively for purposes of this Section 8.05, the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 8.04 in respect of any
Outstanding Notes will be held in trust and applied by such Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Issuer acting as Paying Agent) as such
Trustee may determine, to the Holders of the Notes of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium and interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 

The Issuer will pay and indemnify such Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the money or non-callable
Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 8.04 or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders. 

Notwithstanding anything in this Article 8 to the contrary, such Trustee will deliver or pay to the Issuer from time to time upon the request
of the Issuer any money or non-callable Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 8.04 hereof which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof
delivered to such Trustee (which may be the opinion delivered under Section 8.04(1)), are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 

Section 8.06 Repayment to Issuer. 

Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Issuer, in trust for the payment of the principal of, premium or
interest on any Note and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal, premium or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Issuer on its request or (if then held by the Issuer) will be discharged from such trust; and the
Holder of such Note will thereafter be permitted to look only to the Issuer for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Issuer as trustee thereof, will
thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Issuer cause to be published once, in an Authorized Newspaper, notice that such money
remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which will not be less than 30 days from the date of such notification or publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Issuer. 

  
 - 35 - 

 Section 8.07 Reinstatement. 

(a) If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or non-callable Government Obligations deposited in respect of the Notes
in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03, as the case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the Issuer’s and the
Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes and the related Notes Guarantees will be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof until such time as the Trustee or Paying
Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 8.02 or 8.03 hereof, as the case may be; provided, however, that the principles set forth in paragraphs (b) and (c) of this Section 8.07 shall apply
following such reinstatement; provided further, however, that if the Issuer makes any payment of principal of, premium or interest on any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Issuer will be subrogated to the rights
of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or Paying Agent. 
 (b) If reinstatement of
the Issuer’s and Guarantors’ obligations under this Indenture, the Notes and the related Notes Guarantees shall occur as provided in Section 8.07(a), such reinstatement shall be deemed to have occurred as of the date of such deposit
except that no Default will be deemed to have occurred solely by reason of a breach while any such obligation was suspended. 
 (c)
Neither (1) the continued existence following the reinstatement of the foregoing obligations of facts and circumstances or obligations that were incurred or otherwise came into existence while the foregoing obligations were suspended nor
(2) the performance of any such obligations, including the consummation of any transaction pursuant to, and on materially the same terms as, a contractual agreement in existence prior to the reinstatement of the foregoing obligations, shall
constitute a breach of any such obligations or cause a Default or Event of Default in respect thereof; provided, however, that (A) the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries did not incur or otherwise cause such facts and circumstances
or obligations to exist in anticipation of the reinstatement of the foregoing obligations and (B) the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries did not reasonably believe that such incurrence or actions would result in such reinstatement. For
purposes of clause (2) above, any increase in the consideration to be paid prior to such amendment or modification to the terms of an existing obligation following the reinstatement of the foregoing obligations that does not exceed 10% of the
consideration that was to be paid prior to such amendment or modification shall not be deemed a “material” amendment or modification. For purposes of clauses (A) and (B) above, anticipation and reasonable belief may be determined
by the Issuer and shall be conclusively evidenced by a board resolution to such effect adopted by the Board of Directors of the Issuer. 

ARTICLE 9 
 AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT
AND WAIVER 
 Section 9.01 Without Consent of Holders of Notes. 

Notwithstanding Section 9.02 of this Indenture, the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement this Indenture, the
Notes Guarantees or the Notes without the consent of any Holder of a Note: 
 (1) to cure any ambiguity, defect or
inconsistency; 
 (2) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes; 

(3) to provide for the assumption of the Issuer’s obligations to Holders of Notes in the case of a merger or consolidation
or sale of all or substantially all of the Issuer’s assets; 
 (4) to add additional Guarantees with respect to the
Notes; 
 (5) to secure the Notes; 

  
 - 36 - 

 (6) to make any other change as may be provided in an opinion of counsel that
would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of Notes or that does not adversely affect the legal rights under this Indenture of any such Holder; or 

(7) to comply with requirements of the Commission in order to effect or maintain the qualification of this Indenture under the
TIA. 
 Section 9.02 With Consent of Holders of Notes. 

Except as provided above in Section 9.01 and in this Section 9.02, the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee may amend or supplement
this Indenture, the Notes Guarantees and the Notes with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes affected by such amendment or supplemental indenture voting as a single class (including,
without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer for, such Notes), and, subject to Sections 6.04 and 6.07 hereof, any existing Default or Event of Default (other than a Default or Event of
Default in the payment of the principal or premium, if any, or interest on the Notes, except a payment default resulting from an acceleration that has been rescinded) or compliance with any provision of this Indenture, the Notes Guarantees or the
Notes may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes affected thereby voting as a single class (including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or
tender offer or exchange offer for, the Notes). 
 Without the consent of each Holder affected, an amendment or waiver may not (with respect
to any Notes held by a non-consenting Holder): 
 (1) reduce the principal amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an
amendment, supplement or waiver; 
 (2) reduce the principal of or change the fixed maturity of any Note or alter the
provisions with respect to the redemption of the Notes; 
 (3) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest
on any Note; 
 (4) waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of, or interest or premium on the Notes
(except a rescission of acceleration of the Notes by the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes and a waiver of the payment Default that resulted from such acceleration); 

(5) make any Note payable in money other than that stated in the Notes; 

(6) make any change in Section 6.04 or 6.07 hereof relating to waivers of past Defaults or the rights of Holders of Notes
to receive payments of principal of or interest or premium on the Notes; 
 (7) waive a redemption payment with respect to
any Note; 
 (8) release any Guarantor from any of its obligations under its Notes Guarantee or this Indenture, except in
accordance with the terms of this Indenture; 
 (9) modify or change any provisions of this Indenture affecting the ranking
of the Notes or the Notes Guarantees in any manner adverse to the Holders of the Notes; and 
 (10) make any change in the
amendment and waiver provisions set forth in clauses (1) through (9) of this Section 9.02. 
 Section 2.08 hereof shall
determine which Notes are considered to be “Outstanding” for purposes of this Section 9.02. 

  
 - 37 - 

 It is not necessary for the consent of the Holders of Notes under this Section 9.02 to
approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or waiver, but it is sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. 

After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 9.02 becomes effective, the Issuer will mail to the Holders of Notes affected
thereby a notice briefly describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Issuer to mail such notice, or any defect therein, will not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such amended or supplemental indenture
or waiver. 
 Section 9.03 Compliance with Trust Indenture Act. 

Every amendment or supplement to this Indenture or the Notes will be set forth in an amended or supplemental indenture that complies with the
TIA as then in effect. 
 Section 9.04 Revocation and Effect of Consents. 

Until an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder of a Note is a continuing consent by the Holder of a
Note and every subsequent Holder of a Note or portion of a Note that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on any Note. However, any such Holder of a Note or subsequent Holder of a
Note may revoke the consent as to its Note if a Responsible Officer of the Trustee receives written notice of revocation before the date the waiver, supplement or amendment becomes effective. An amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective in
accordance with its terms and thereafter binds every Holder. 
 Section 9.05 Notation on or Exchange of Notes. 

The Trustee may place an appropriate notation about an amendment, supplement or waiver on any Outstanding Note thereafter authenticated. The
Issuer in exchange for all Outstanding Notes may issue and the Trustee shall, upon receipt of an authentication order in accordance with Section 2.02, authenticate new Notes that reflect the amendment, supplement or waiver. 

Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note will not affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver.

 Section 9.06 Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc. 

Upon the request of the Issuer accompanied by Board Resolutions authorizing the execution of any amended or supplemental indenture, and upon
the filing with the Trustee of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee of the consent of the Holders of Notes as aforesaid, and upon receipt by the Trustee of the documents described in Section 7.02 hereof, the Trustee will join with the Issuer in
the execution of an amended or supplemental indenture unless such amended or supplemental indenture directly affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties, liabilities or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in
its discretion, but will not be obligated to, enter into such amended or supplemental indenture. In executing any amended or supplemental indenture, the Trustee will be entitled to receive and (subject to Section 7.01 hereof) will be fully
protected in relying upon, in addition to the documents required by Section 12.04 hereof, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amended or supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by
this Indenture and complies with the terms of this Indenture.

 ARTICLE 10 

NOTES GUARANTEES 
 Section 10.01 Notes
Guarantee. 
 (a) Subject to this Article 10, each of the Guarantors, jointly and severally, fully and unconditionally guarantees to each
Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of this Indenture, such Note or the obligations of the Issuer hereunder or thereunder,
that: 
 (1) the principal of, premium and interest on such Note will be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity,
by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest on such Note, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Issuer to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder will be promptly paid in
full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and 
 (2) in case of any extension of time of
payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same will be promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. 

Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors will be jointly and
severally obligated to pay the same immediately. Each Guarantor agrees that this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection. 

(b) The Guarantors hereby agree that their obligations hereunder are unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability
of the Notes issued with the benefit of Notes Guarantees or this Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any
judgment against the Issuer, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor, other than payment in full of all obligations under the Notes. Each
Guarantor in respect of the Notes hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuer, any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuer, protest,
notice and all demands whatsoever and covenant that this Notes Guarantee will not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and this Indenture. 

(c) If any Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Issuer, the Guarantors or any custodian, trustee,
liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Issuer or the Guarantors, any amount paid by either to the Trustee or such Holder, this Notes Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, will be reinstated in full force and
effect. 
 (d) Each Guarantor agrees that it will not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any
obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. Each Guarantor further agrees that, as between the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (1) the maturity of
the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 hereof for the purposes of its Notes Guarantee notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations
guaranteed hereby, and (2) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6 hereof, such obligations (whether or not due and payable) will forthwith become due and payable by such Guarantor for the
purpose of its Notes Guarantee. The Guarantors will have the right to seek contribution from any non-paying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Notes Guarantee. 

(e) Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its Note Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the absence of the endorsement
of any notation of such Note Guarantee on the Notes. The delivery of any Note by the Trustee, after the authentication thereof hereunder, shall constitute due delivery of the Note Guarantee set forth in this Indenture on behalf of the Guarantors.

  
 - 39 - 

 Section 10.02 Limitation on Guarantor Liability. 

Each Guarantor, and by its acceptance of Notes issued with the benefit of Notes Guarantees, each Holder, hereby confirms that it is the
intention of all such parties that the Notes Guarantee of such Guarantor not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar
federal or state law to the extent applicable to any Notes Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the Holders and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of each such Guarantor will, after giving effect to any maximum
amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor
in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under this Article 10, result in the obligations of such Guarantor under its Notes Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. 

Section 10.03 [Intentionally Omitted]. 

Section 10.04 Guarantors May Consolidate, etc., on Certain Terms. 

No Guarantor may sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets to, or consolidate with or merge with or into (whether or
not such Guarantor is the surviving Person), another Person, other than the Issuer or another Guarantor, unless: 
 (1)
immediately after giving effect to that transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists under this Indenture; and 
 (2)
subject to Section 10.05, the Person acquiring the property in any such sale or disposition or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger assumes all the obligations of that Guarantor under this Indenture and its Notes
Guarantee pursuant to a supplemental indenture satisfactory to the Trustee. 
 In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance
and upon the assumption by the successor Person, by supplemental indenture, of the Notes Guarantee endorsed upon the Notes and the due and punctual performance of all of the covenants and conditions of this Indenture to be performed by the
Guarantor, such successor Person will succeed to and be substituted for the Guarantor with the same effect as if it had been named herein as a Guarantor. Such successor Person thereupon may cause to be signed any or all of the Notes Guarantees to be
endorsed upon all of the Notes issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Issuer and delivered to the Trustee. All the Notes Guarantees so issued will in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under this
Indenture as the Notes Guarantees theretofore and thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this Indenture as though all of such Notes Guarantees had been issued at the date of the execution hereof. 

Except as set forth in Article 5, and notwithstanding this Section 10.04, nothing contained in this Indenture or in any of the Notes will
prevent any consolidation or merger of a Guarantor with or into the Issuer or another Guarantor, or will prevent any sale or conveyance of the property of a Guarantor as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to the Issuer or another Guarantor.

 Section 10.05 Releases Following Sale of Assets. 

The Notes Guarantee of a Guarantor will be released, and any Person acquiring assets or surviving any merger or consolidation with a Guarantor
(including by way of consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance under Section 10.04) or Capital Stock of a Guarantor in accordance with the provisions of clauses (1) or (2) below shall not be required to assume the obligations of any
such Guarantor: 
 (1) in connection with any sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of that
Guarantor (including by way of consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance under Section 10.04) to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Issuer or a Guarantor; 

  
 - 40 - 

 (2) in connection with any sale of all of the Capital Stock of a Guarantor to a
Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transaction) the Issuer or a Guarantor; 
 (3) in connection
with a Guarantor becoming an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Indenture; 
 (4)
in connection with any sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of that Guarantor and the dissolution of that Guarantor, in each case in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Indenture; 

(5) in the event that the Issuer exercises its discharge or full defeasance options under Article 8; or 

(6) in the event that the obligation as a borrower or guarantor by such Guarantor of both the Credit Agreement and the Existing
Notes is released or discharged (other than as a result of payment under such obligation) and such Guarantor is not otherwise required to provide a Notes Guarantee in accordance with Section 4.08. 

Upon delivery by the Issuer to the Trustee of an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that one of the foregoing
requirements has been satisfied and the conditions to the release of a Note Guarantee under this Section 10.05 have been met, the Trustee will execute any documents reasonably required in order to evidence the release of a Guarantor from its
obligations under such Note Guarantee. 
 Any Guarantor not released from its obligations under its Notes Guarantee will remain liable for
the full amount of principal of and interest on the Notes and for the other obligations of any Guarantor under the Indenture as provided in this Article 10. 

ARTICLE 11 
 SATISFACTION AND
DISCHARGE 
 Section 11.01 Satisfaction and Discharge. 

This Indenture will be discharged and will cease to be of further effect (except as to any surviving rights of registration of transfer or
exchange of Notes expressly provided for herein), when: 
 (1) either: 

(A) all Notes that have been authenticated (except lost, stolen or destroyed Notes that have been replaced or paid and Notes
for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust and thereafter repaid to the Issuer) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or 

(B) all Notes that have not been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable by reason of the making
of a notice of redemption or otherwise or will become due and payable within one year and the Issuer or any Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee for Notes as trust funds in trust solely for the benefit of
the Holders, money in such currency or currencies, or currency unit or currency units, in which such Notes are then specified as payable at maturity, non-callable Government Obligations applicable to such Notes (determined on the basis of the
currency or currencies, or currency unit or currency units, in which such Notes are then specified as payable at maturity), or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient without consideration of any reinvestment of interest, to pay
and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Notes not delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for principal, premium and accrued interest to the date of maturity or redemption; 

  
 - 41 - 

 (2) no Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes has occurred and is
continuing on the date of such deposit or will occur as a result of such deposit and such deposit will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other instrument to which the Issuer or any Guarantor are a party or by
which the Issuer or any Guarantor are bound; 
 (3) the Issuer or any Guarantor have paid or caused to be paid all sums
payable by them under this Indenture with respect to the Notes; and 
 (4) the Issuer has delivered irrevocable instructions
to the Trustee to apply the money on deposit in the trust referred to in subclause (B) of clause (1) above toward the payment of such Notes at maturity or on the redemption date, as the case may be. 

In addition, the Issuer must deliver an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee for Notes stating that all
conditions precedent to satisfaction and discharge have been satisfied. 
 Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture,
if money has been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (B) of clause (1) of this Section, the provisions of Section 11.02 and Section 8.06 will survive. In addition, nothing in this Section 11.01 will be deemed
to discharge those provisions of Section 7.07 that, by their terms, survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. 
 Section 11.02
Application of Trust Money. 
 Subject to the provisions of Section 8.06, all money deposited with the Trustee in respect of any
Notes pursuant to Section 11.01 shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Issuer acting as its own
Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee; but such money need not be segregated from other funds
except to the extent required by law and Section 2.04. 
 If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply any money or Government
Obligations in accordance with Section 11.01 in respect of any Notes by reason of any legal proceeding or by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such
application, the Issuer’s and any Guarantor’s obligations under this Indenture and such Notes shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to Section 11.01 and the provisions of Section 8.07 shall
apply to the extent provided therein.

If a notice or communication is mailed in the manner provided above within the time prescribed, it is duly given, whether or not the addressee
receives it. 
 If the Issuer mails a notice or communication to Holders, it will mail a copy to the Trustee and each Agent at the same

have been satisfied; and 
 (2) an Opinion of Counsel in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee (which
must include the statements set forth in Section 12.05 hereof) stating that, in the opinion of such counsel, all such conditions precedent and covenants have been satisfied. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of any such request or application as to which the furnishing of such documents is specifically
required by any provision of this Indenture relating to such particular request or application, no additional certificate or opinion need be furnished unless specifically required. 

Section 12.05 Statements Required in Certificate or Opinion. 

Each certificate or opinion with respect to compliance with a condition or covenant provided for in this Indenture (other than a certificate
provided pursuant to TIA § 314(a)(4)) must comply with the provisions of TIA § 314(e) and must include:

enable him or her to express an informed opinion as to whether or not such covenant or condition has been satisfied; and 

(4) a statement as to whether or not, in the opinion of such Person, such condition or covenant has been satisfied.

The Trustee may make reasonable rules for action by or at a meeting of Holders. The Registrar or Paying Agent may make reasonable rules and set

successor thereof, as such, will have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries under the Notes or this Indenture based on, in respect of, or by reason of such obligations or their creation. Each holder by accepting
a Note waives and releases all such liability. The foregoing waiver and release are an integral part of the consideration for the issuance of the Notes. Such waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under federal securities laws. 

Section 12.08 Governing Law. 
 THE
INTERNAL LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WILL GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE THIS INDENTURE, THE NOTES AND THE NOTES GUARANTEES WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO APPLICABLE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW TO THE EXTENT THAT THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER

 - 44 - 

 Section 12.09 No Adverse Interpretation of Other Agreements. 

This Indenture may not be used to interpret any other indenture, loan or debt agreement of the Issuer or its Subsidiaries or of any other

All agreements of the Issuer in this Indenture and the Notes will bind its successors. All agreements of the Trustee in this Indenture will
bind its successors. All agreements of each Guarantor in this Indenture will bind its successors, except as otherwise provided in Article 10 and any applicable indentures supplemental hereto. 

Section 12.11 Severability. 
 In case
any provision in this Indenture or in the Notes is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions will not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 

Section 12.12 Counterpart Originals. 

The parties may sign any number of copies of this Indenture. Each signed copy will be an original, but all of them together represent the same
agreement. 
 Section 12.13 Table of Contents, Headings, etc. 

The Table of Contents, Cross-Reference Table and Headings of the Articles and Sections of this Indenture have been inserted for convenience of
reference only, are not to be considered a part of this Indenture and will in no way modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof. 

Section 12.14 Benefits of Indenture. 

Nothing in this Indenture, the Notes or the Notes Guarantees, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and
their successors hereunder and the Holders, any benefit or an legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture. 
 Section 12.15 Legal
Holidays. 
 In any case where any Interest Payment Date, redemption date, purchase date or stated maturity of any Note shall not be a
Business Day at any Place of Payment, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or of such Note (other than a provision of such Note which specifically states that such provision shall apply in lieu of this Section)) payment of
interest or principal (and premium, if any) need not be made at such Place of Payment on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day at such Place of Payment with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date,
redemption date or purchase date, or at the stated maturity. 
 Section 12.16 Acts of Holders. 

(a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by
Holders of the Outstanding Notes may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by agents duly appointed in writing. Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such
action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Issuer. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are
herein sometimes referred to as the “act” of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent, or of the holding by any Person of a Note, shall be
sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Issuer and any agent of the Trustee or the Issuer, if made in the manner provided in this Section. 

  
 - 45 - 

 (b) The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the
Person executing the same, may be proved in any reasonable manner which the Trustee deems sufficient. 
 (c) The ownership of Notes shall be
proved by the register maintained by the Registrar. 
 (d) If the Issuer shall solicit from the Holders of Notes any request, demand,
authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other act, the Issuer may, at its option, in or pursuant to a Board Resolution, fix in advance a record date for the determination of Holders entitled to give such request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent, waiver or other act, but the Issuer shall have no obligation to do so. Notwithstanding TIA Section 316(c), such record date shall be the record date specified in or pursuant to such Board Resolution, which shall be a
date not earlier than the date 30 days prior to the first solicitation of Holders generally in connection therewith and not later than the date such solicitation is completed. If such a record date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization,
direction, notice, consent, waiver or other act may be given before or after such record date, but only the Holders of record at the close of business on such record date shall be deemed to be Holders for the purpose of determining whether Holders
of the requisite proportion of Outstanding Notes have authorized or agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other act, and for that purpose the Outstanding Notes shall be computed as of such
record date; provided that no such authorization, agreement or consent by the Holders on such record date shall be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture not later than eleven months after the
record date. 
 (e) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other act of the Holder of any Note shall bind
every future Holder of the same Note and the Holder of every Note issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee, any Registrar,
any Paying Agent, any authenticating agent or the Issuer in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Note.

 [Form of Back of Note] 

4.500% Senior Notes due 2027 

Capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated. 

(1) Interest. EPR Properties (the “Issuer”) promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this
Note at 4.500% per annum from May 23, 2017 until maturity. The Issuer will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day
(each, an “Interest Payment Date”). Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from May 23, 2017; provided, that if there is no existing
Default in the payment of interest, and if this Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date;
provided, further, that the first Interest Payment Date shall be December 1, 2017. The Issuer will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, from
time to time on demand at a rate that is 1% per annum in excess of the rate then in effect; the Issuer will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest (without
regard to any applicable grace periods) from time to time on demand at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 

(2) Method of Payment. The Issuer will pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are
registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on the May 15 or November 15 (each, a “Record Date”) next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such record date and on or before
such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.12 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. The Notes will be payable as to principal, premium, if any, and interest at the office or agency of the Issuer maintained for
such purpose within or without the City and State of New York, or, at the option of the Issuer, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders; provided that payment by
wire transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal of and interest and premium, if any, on all Global Notes and all other Notes the Holders of which will have provided wire transfer instructions to the Issuer or
the Paying Agent. Such payment will be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. 

(3) Paying Agent and Registrar. Initially, UMB Bank, n.a., the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and
Registrar. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity. 

(4) Indenture. The Issuer issued the Notes under an indenture, dated as of May 23, 2017 (the
“Indenture”), among the Issuer, the Guarantors and the Trustee. The terms of the Notes and the related Note Guarantees include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture
Act of 1939, as amended (15 U.S. Code §§ 77aaa-77bbbb). The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and such Act for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with
the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. The Notes are unsecured obligations of the Issuer and the Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by each of the Guarantors pursuant to
the Note Guarantees. 
 (5) Optional Redemption. The Issuer will not be entitled to redeem all or any portion of the
Notes at its option except as provided in this section. The Issuer will be entitled at its option to redeem all or any portion of the Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of such Notes plus the Applicable Premium as of,
and any accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date (subject to the right of the Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date); provided that if the Notes are
redeemed on or after March 1, 2027 (three months prior to the maturity date, the “Par Call Date”), the redemption price shall equal 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest to,
but not including, the redemption date. Notice of such redemption must be mailed by first-class mail to each Holder’s registered address, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption date. 

  
 A-3 

 After notice of optional redemption has been given as provided in the Indenture,
if funds for the redemption of any Notes called for redemption have been made available on the redemption date, such Notes called for redemption will cease to bear interest on the date fixed for the redemption specified in the redemption notice and
the only right of the Holders of such Notes will be to receive payment of the redemption price. 
 Any redemption pursuant to
Section 3.08 of the Indenture shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3.01 through 3.06 of the Indenture. 

(6) Mandatory Redemption. The Issuer will not be required to make mandatory redemption payments with respect to the
Notes. 
 (7) Notice of Redemption. Notice of redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but not more than 60 days
before the redemption date to each Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address. Notes in denominations larger than $2,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000, unless all of the Notes held by a Holder are
to be redeemed. 
 (8) Denominations, Transfer, Exchange. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in
denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to
furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Issuer may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Issuer need not exchange or register the transfer of any Note or portion of a
Note selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. Also, the Issuer need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or during
the period between a Record Date and the corresponding Interest Payment Date. 
 (9) Persons Deemed Owners. The
registered Holder of a Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes. 
 (10) Amendment, Supplement and Waiver.
Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture, the Notes Guarantees or the Notes may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes affected by such amendment or
supplemental indenture voting as a single class, and any existing Default or Event of Default or compliance with any provision of the Indenture, the Notes Guarantees or the Notes may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in
principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes affected thereby voting as a single class. Without the consent of any Holder of a Note, the Indenture, the Notes Guarantees or the Notes may be amended or supplemented to, among other things, cure any
ambiguity, defect or inconsistency; to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes; to provide for the assumption of the Issuer’s obligations to Holders of Notes in the case of a merger or consolidation or
sale of all or substantially all of the Issuer’s assets; to add additional Guarantees with respect to the Notes; to secure the Notes; to make any other change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of Notes or that
does not adversely affect the legal rights under the Indenture of any such Holder; or to comply with requirements of the Commission in order to effect or maintain the qualification of the applicable Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act. 

(11) Defaults and Remedies. Events of Default with respect to the Notes (as defined in the Indenture) include:
(i) default in the payment of principal or any premium on the Notes when due and payable; (ii) default in the payment of interest on the Notes within 30 days after the applicable due date; (iii) failure to comply with
Section 5.01 of the Indenture; (iv) breach of any other term of the Indenture for 60 days after receipt of a notice of Default stating the Issuer is in breach; (v) certain final judgments are entered against the Issuer and its
Restricted Subsidiaries and are not paid, discharged or stayed for a period of 60 days; (vi) default under any of certain Debt of the Issuer and its Restricted Subsidiaries, which default 

  
 A-4 

 
results in the acceleration of the maturity of such indebtedness, unless such other Debt is discharged, or the acceleration is rescinded or annulled, within 30 days after the Issuer or its
Restricted Subsidiaries receives notice of the default; (vii) certain events in bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization occur with respect to the Issuer or any of its Significant Subsidiaries or any group of Subsidiaries that, taken as a
whole, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary; and (viii) any Notes Guarantee of a Significant Subsidiary of the Issuer ceases to be in full force and effect or is declared null and void or any Guarantor denies or disaffirms its obligations
under the Indenture or any Notes Guarantee other than by reason of the release of any such Notes Guarantee in accordance with the Indenture. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal
amount of the then Outstanding Notes may declare the entire principal amount of the Notes to be due and payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, all
Outstanding Notes will become due and payable without further action or notice. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of
the then Outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of the Notes notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of Default in the payment of
principal, premium, if any, or interest) if and so long as it determines that withholding notice is in the interest of the Holders of the Notes. Subject to certain exceptions, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then
Outstanding Notes by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under the Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of
principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes. The Issuer is required to deliver to the Trustee annually a statement regarding compliance with the Indenture, and the Issuer is required upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default
to deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying such Default or Event of Default. 
 (12) Trustee Dealings with
Issuer. The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Issuer or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates as if it were not the Trustee.

 (13) No Recourse Against Others. No past, present or future trustee, director, officer, employee or stockholder of
the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries, as such, will have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer or any of its Subsidiaries under the Notes or the Indenture based on, in respect of, or by reason of such obligations or their creation. Each
Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The foregoing waiver and release are an integral part of the consideration for the issuance of the Notes. 

(14) Authentication. This Note will not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or an
authenticating agent. 
 (15) Abbreviations. Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an
assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act). 

(16) CUSIP Numbers. Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification
Procedures, the Issuer has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes and the Trustee may use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on
the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon.

 EXHIBIT B 

[FORM OF SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE TO BE DELIVERED BY SUBSEQUENT GUARANTORS] 

Supplemental Indenture (this “Supplemental Indenture”), dated as of ________ , 20__, among __________________ (the
“Guaranteeing Subsidiary”), EPR Properties, a Maryland real estate investment trust (the “Issuer”), the other Guarantors (as defined in the Indenture referred to below) and UMB Bank, n.a., as trustee under the
Indenture referred to below (the “Trustee”). 
 W I T N E S S E T H 

WHEREAS, the Issuer has heretofore executed and delivered to the Trustee an indenture, dated as of May 23, 2017 (the
“Indenture”), providing for the issuance of 4.500% Senior Notes due 2027 (the “Notes”); 
 WHEREAS, the
Indenture provides that under certain circumstances the Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture pursuant to which the Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall unconditionally guarantee all of the Issuer’s
Obligations (as defined in the Indenture) under the Notes and the Indenture on the terms and conditions set forth herein (the “Notes Guarantee”); and 

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Indenture, the Trustee is authorized to execute and deliver this Supplemental Indenture. 

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged,
the Guaranteeing Subsidiary and the Trustee mutually covenant and agree for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes as follows: 

1. Capitalized Terms. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings assigned to them in the
Indenture. 
 2. Agreement to Guarantee. The Guaranteeing Subsidiary hereby agrees as follows: 

(a) Subject to Article 10 of the Indenture, the Guaranteeing Subsidiary hereby, jointly and severally with all other
Guarantors, unconditionally guarantees to each Holder of a Note authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and to the Trustee and its successors and assigns, irrespective of the validity and enforceability of the Indenture, the Notes or the
obligations of the Issuer hereunder or thereunder, that: 
 (i) the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on the
Notes will be promptly paid in full when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, redemption or otherwise, and interest on the overdue principal of and interest on the Notes, if any, if lawful, and all other obligations of the Issuer to the
Holders or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder will be promptly paid in full or performed, all in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof; and 

(ii) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Notes or any of such other obligations, that same will be
promptly paid in full when due or performed in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. 

Failing payment when due of any amount so guaranteed or any performance so guaranteed for whatever reason, the Guarantors shall be jointly and
severally obligated to pay the same immediately. 
 (b) The obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the
validity, regularity or enforceability of the Notes or the Indenture, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder of the Notes with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment
against the Issuer, any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a Guarantor, other than payment in full of all Obligations under the Notes. 

  
 B-1 

 (c) The following is hereby waived: diligence, presentment, demand of payment,
filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Issuer, any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuer, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever. 

(d) This Notes Guarantee shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes and
the Indenture, and the Guaranteeing Subsidiary accepts all obligations of a Guarantor under the Indenture. 
 (e) If any
Holder or the Trustee is required by any court or otherwise to return to the Issuer, the Guarantors, or any custodian, trustee, liquidator or other similar official acting in relation to either the Issuer or the Guarantors, any amount paid by either
to the Trustee or such Holder, this Notes Guarantee, to the extent theretofore discharged, shall be reinstated in full force and effect. 

(f) The Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in relation to the Holders in respect of any
obligations guaranteed hereby until payment in full of all obligations guaranteed hereby. 
 (g) As between the Guarantors,
on the one hand, and the Holders and the Trustee, on the other hand, (x) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in Article 6 of the Indenture for the purposes of this Notes Guarantee, notwithstanding
any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed hereby, and (y) in the event of any declaration of acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article 6 of the Indenture, such
obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for the purpose of this Notes Guarantee. 

(h) The Guarantors shall have the right to seek contribution from any nonpaying Guarantor so long as the exercise of such right
does not impair the rights of the Holders under this Notes Guarantee. 
 (i) In accordance with Section 10.02 of the
Indenture, after giving effect to any maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities that are relevant under any applicable Bankruptcy Law or fraudulent conveyance law, and after giving effect to any collections from, rights to
receive contribution from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Guarantor under Article 10 of the Indenture, this Notes Guarantee shall be limited to the maximum amount permissible such
that the obligations of such Guarantor under this Notes Guarantee will not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. 

3. Guaranteeing Subsidiary may Consolidate, etc., on Certain Terms. 

(a) The Guaranteeing Subsidiary may not sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets to, or consolidate
with or merge with or into (whether or not the Guaranteeing Subsidiary is the surviving Person) another Person, other than the Issuer or another Guarantor unless: 

(i) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists; and 

(ii) subject to Section 10.05 of the Indenture, the Person acquiring the property in any such sale or disposition or the
Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger assumes all of the obligations of the Guaranteeing Subsidiary under the Indenture and this Notes Guarantee pursuant to a supplemental indenture in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Trustee. 
 (b) In case of any such consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance and upon the assumption by
the successor Person, by supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee and satisfactory in form to the Trustee, of this Notes Guarantee endorsed upon the Notes and the due and punctual performance of all of the covenants and
conditions of the Indenture to be performed by the Guaranteeing Subsidiary, such successor Person shall succeed to and be substituted for the Guaranteeing Subsidiary with the same effect as if it had been named herein as a Guaranteeing Subsidiary.
Such successor Person thereupon may cause to be signed any or all of the Notes Guarantees to be endorsed upon all of the Notes issuable under the Indenture which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Issuer and delivered to the Trustee. All
the Notes Guarantees so issued shall in all respects have the same legal rank and benefit under the Indenture as the Notes Guarantees theretofore and thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of the Indenture as though all of such Notes
Guarantees had been issued at the date of the execution hereof. 

  
 B-2 

 (c) Except as set forth in Articles 4 and 5 and Section 10.04 of the
Indenture, and notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) above, nothing contained in the Indenture or in any of the Notes shall prevent any consolidation or merger of the Guaranteeing Subsidiary with or into the Issuer or another Guarantor, or
shall prevent any sale or conveyance of the property of the Guaranteeing Subsidiary as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to the Issuer or another Guarantor. 

4. Releases. 

(a) The Notes Guarantee of a Guaranteeing Subsidiary shall be released, and any Person acquiring assets (including by way of
merger or consolidation) or Capital Stock of a Guaranteeing Subsidiary under those circumstances specified in Section 10.05 of the Indenture shall not be required to assume the obligations of such Guaranteeing Subsidiary. Upon delivery by the
Issuer to the Trustee of an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel stating that the provisions of Section 10.05 of the Indenture have been complied with, the Trustee shall execute any documents reasonably required in order to
evidence the release of the Guaranteeing Subsidiary from its obligations under this Notes Guarantee. 
 (b) Any Guarantor not
released from its obligations under its Notes Guarantee shall remain liable for the full amount of principal of and interest on the Notes and for the other obligations of any Guarantor under the Indenture as provided in Article 10 of the Indenture.

 5. No Recourse Against Others. No past, present or future trustee, director, officer, employee, incorporator,
stockholder, equity holder or agent of the Guaranteeing Subsidiary, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Issuer or the Guaranteeing Subsidiary under the Notes, this Notes Guarantee, the Indenture or this Supplemental
Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of the Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for
issuance of the Notes. Such waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws and it is the view of the Commission that such a waiver is against public policy. 

6. NEW YORK LAW TO GOVERN. THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE THIS
SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE BUT WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO APPLICABLE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW TO THE EXTENT THAT THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION WOULD BE REQUIRED THEREBY. 

7. Counterparts. The parties may sign any number of copies of this Supplemental Indenture. Each signed copy shall be an
original, but all of them together represent the same agreement. 
 8. Effect of Headings. The Section headings herein
are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof. 
 9. The Trustee. The Trustee shall not be
responsible in any manner whatsoever for or in respect of the validity or sufficiency of this Supplemental Indenture or for or in respect of the recitals contained herein, all of which recitals are made solely by the Guaranteeing Subsidiary and the
Issuer. 

  
 B-3 

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Supplemental Indenture to be duly
executed and attested, all as of the date first above written.

 Any increase or decrease in the Applicable Margin resulting from a change in the Consolidated First Lien Net
Leverage Ratio shall become effective as of the first Business Day immediately following the date a Compliance Certificate is delivered pursuant to Section 6.02(a); provided that, at the option of the Administrative
Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) or the Required Lenders (following written notice to the Borrower), the highest pricing level shall apply (x) as of the first Business Day after the date on which a Compliance Certificate was
required to have been delivered but was not delivered, and shall continue to so apply to and including the date on which such Compliance Certificate is so delivered (and thereafter the pricing level otherwise determined in accordance with this
definition shall apply) and (y) as of the first Business Day after an Event of Default under Section 8.01(a) or 8.01(f) shall have occurred and be continuing, and shall continue to so apply to but excluding the
date on which such Event of Default is cured or waived (and thereafter the pricing level otherwise determined in accordance with this definition shall apply).

Extended Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans made pursuant to any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments shall be the applicable percentages per annum set forth in the relevant Extension Amendment, (w) the Applicable Margin in respect of

Credit Commitments, any Class of Refinancing Revolving Credit Loans or any Class of Refinancing Term Loans shall be the applicable percentages per annum set forth in the applicable Refinancing Amendment and (z) in the case of
the Initial Term Loans, the Applicable Margin shall be increased as, and to the extent, necessary to comply with the provisions of Section 2.14, Section 7.03(g) or Section 7.03(r)(i).

 In the event that any financial statement or certificate delivered pursuant to
Section 6.01 or 6.02(a) is shown to be inaccurate (at a time when this Agreement is in effect and unpaid Obligations under this Agreement are outstanding (other than contingent obligations in respect of which no
assertion of liability (whether oral or written) and no claim or demand for payment (whether oral or written) has been made (and, in the case of Obligations for indemnification, no notice for indemnification has been issued by the indemnitee) at
such time), and such inaccuracy, if corrected, would have led to the application of a higher Applicable Margin for any period (an “Applicable Period”) than the Applicable Margin applied for such Applicable Period, then (x) the
Borrower shall immediately deliver to the Administrative Agent a correct Compliance Certificate required by Section 6.02(a) for such Applicable Period and (y) the Borrower shall immediately pay to the Administrative Agent the accrued
additional interest owing as a result of such increased Applicable Margin for such Applicable Period. Nothing in this paragraph shall limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender under Section 2.08(b) or Article VIII.

 “Applicable Requirements” shall mean, in respect of any Indebtedness, that such Indebtedness satisfies the following
requirements: 
 (a)    (i) if such Indebtedness is secured on a pari passu basis by the
Collateral, such Indebtedness shall not mature earlier than the Latest Maturity Date of the Term Loans outstanding at the time of incurrence of such Indebtedness, and (ii) in the case of any other Indebtedness, such Indebtedness shall not
mature earlier than the date that is 91 days after the Latest Maturity Date of the Term Loans outstanding at the time of incurrence of such Indebtedness; 

(b)    (i) in respect of any Indebtedness that is not revolving in nature, such Indebtedness does not have
greater amortization or mandatory prepayments than the Initial Term Loans and (ii) in respect of any Indebtedness that is revolving in nature, such Indebtedness shall not mature earlier than the Maturity Date of the Revolving Credit Facility or
have amortization or scheduled mandatory commitment reductions (other than at maturity); 
 (c)    such
Indebtedness shall have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity not shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Term Loans outstanding at the time of incurrence of such Indebtedness; 

(d)    if such Indebtedness is secured by the Collateral, a Senior Representative acting on behalf of the
holders of such Indebtedness has become party to a Customary Intercreditor Agreement (or any Customary Intercreditor Agreement has been amended or replaced in a manner reasonably acceptable to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, which results
in such Senior Representative having rights to share in the Collateral on a pari passu basis or a junior lien basis, as applicable); 

(e)    if such Indebtedness is subordinated in right of payment to the Obligations, then such Indebtedness
shall be subordinated on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; 
 (f)    if such
Indebtedness is secured on a pari passu basis by the Collateral, if the All-In Yield in respect of such Indebtedness exceeds the All-In Yield in respect of any
then-existing Initial Term Loans by more than 0.50%, the Applicable Margin of such then existing Initial Term Loans shall be adjusted such that the All-In Yield of such then existing Initial Term Loans equals
the All-In Yield of such Indebtedness minus 0.50%; provided that if such Indebtedness includes a Eurodollar Rate floor greater than 1.00% per annum or an ABR floor greater than 2.00%
per  

  
 5 

 
annum, such differential between the Eurodollar Rate floor or the ABR floor, as the case may be, shall be equated to the All-In Yield for purposes
of determining whether an increase to the interest rate margin under the Initial Term Loans shall be required, but only to the extent an increase in the Eurodollar Rate floor or ABR floor in the Initial Term Loans, as the case may be, would cause an
increase in the interest rate then in effect thereunder, and in such case, the Eurodollar Rate floor or ABR floor (but not the interest rate margin), applicable to the Initial Term Loans shall be increased to the extent of such differential between
the Eurodollar Rate floors or ABR floors, as the case may be; 
 (g)    to the extent such Indebtedness
is secured, it is not secured by any property or assets of any Consolidated Party other than the Collateral (it being agreed that such Indebtedness shall not be required to be secured by all of the Collateral); provided that Indebtedness that
may be incurred by Restricted Subsidiaries that are not Guarantors pursuant to Section 7.03(r) may be secured by assets of such Restricted Subsidiaries; 

(h)    such Indebtedness shall not be guaranteed by any Person other than any Loan Party and shall not have
any obligors other than any Loan Party, other than to the extent such Indebtedness may be incurred by a Person other than a Loan Party pursuant to Section 7.03(r); 

(i)    the other terms and conditions of such Indebtedness (excluding pricing, fees, rate floors, premiums,
optional prepayment or optional redemption provisions) are (i) not materially less favorable (when taken as a whole) to the Consolidated Parties than those set forth in the Loan Documents (when taken as a whole) or (ii) on customary terms
for “high yield” notes of the type being incurred at the time of incurrence (it being agreed that such Indebtedness may be in the form of notes or a credit agreement), except in each case for covenants or other provisions contained in such
Indebtedness that are applicable only after the then Latest Maturity Date; and 
 (j)    the holders of
such Indebtedness may participate on a pro rata basis or less than pro rata basis (but not on a greater than pro rata basis) in any mandatory prepayments of Term Loans then outstanding; 

provided that a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Borrower delivered to the Administrative Agent at least five Business Days prior to the
incurrence of such Indebtedness, together with a reasonably detailed description of the material terms and conditions of such Indebtedness or drafts of the documentation relating thereto, stating that the Borrower has determined in good faith that
such terms and conditions satisfy the requirements of this definition, shall be conclusive evidence that such terms and conditions satisfy the requirements of this definition unless the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower within such five

as if they had occurred at the beginning of the most recent Test Period ending prior to the LCT Test Date (for income statement purposes) or at the end of such most recent Test Period (for balance sheet purposes), the Borrower would have been

 53 

 
Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or the date that the definitive agreement or irrevocable notice for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated or expires without consummation
of such Limited Condition Transaction, for purposes of determining whether such Subsequent Transaction is permitted under this Agreement, any such ratio, test or basket shall be required to be satisfied on a Pro Forma Basis (i) assuming such
Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) have been consummated and (ii) assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other
transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) have not been consummated. 

Section 1.09.    Pro Forma Calculations. 

(a)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, financial ratios and tests, including the Consolidated Total Net

(b)    For purposes of calculating any financial ratio or test, Specified Transactions that have been made (i) during
the applicable Test Period and (ii) subsequent to such Test Period and prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of any such ratio is made shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming that all such
Specified Transactions (and any increase or decrease in Consolidated EBITDA and the component financial definitions used therein attributable to any Specified Transaction) had occurred on the first day of the applicable Test Period (or, in the case
of the determination of Total Assets, the last day). If since the beginning of any applicable Test Period any Person that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged, amalgamated or consolidated with or into the Borrower or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries since the beginning of such Test Period shall have made any Specified Transaction that would have required adjustment pursuant to this Section 1.09, then such financial ratio or test (or the
calculation of Total Assets) shall be calculated to give pro forma effect thereto in accordance with this Section 1.09. 

(c)    Whenever pro forma effect is to be given to a Specified Transaction, the pro forma calculations shall
be made in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Borrower and include, for the avoidance of doubt, the amount of “run-rate” cost savings and synergies projected by the
Borrower in good faith to be realized as a result of specified actions taken, committed to be taken or expected to be taken (calculated on a pro forma basis as though such cost savings and synergies had been realized on the first day of such
period and as if such cost savings and synergies were realized during the entirety of such period) and “run-rate” means the full recurring benefit for a period that is associated with any action
taken, committed to be taken or expected to be taken (including any savings expected to result from the elimination of a public target’s compliance costs with public company requirements) net of the amount of actual benefits realized during
such period from such actions, and any such adjustments shall be included in the initial pro forma calculations of such financial ratios or tests and during any subsequent Test Period in which the effects thereof are expected to be realized
relating to such Specified Transaction; provided that (A) such amounts are factually supportable, reasonably identifiable, quantifiable, attributable to the transaction and based on assumptions believed by the Borrower in good faith to
be reasonable at the time made and supported by an officer’s certificate delivered to the Administrative Agent, and calculated on a pro forma basis as though such cost savings and synergies had been realized on the first day of such period as
if such cost savings and synergies were realized during the entirety of such period relating to such specified transaction, net of the amount of actual benefits realized during such period from such actions, (B) such actions are taken,
committed to be taken or expected to be 

  
 54 

 
taken no later than 12 months after the date of such Specified Transaction, (C) no amounts shall be added pursuant to this Section 1.09(c) to the extent duplicative
of any amounts that are otherwise added back in computing Consolidated EBITDA, whether through a pro forma adjustment or otherwise, with respect to such period and (D) the aggregate amount of cost savings and synergies added pursuant to
this clause (c) shall not exceed (i) 10.0% of Consolidated EBITDA for such Test Period (giving pro forma effect to the relevant Specified Transaction (but not to any cost savings or synergies)) and (ii) when aggregated with the aggregate
amount for all cash items added pursuant to clause (a)(iv)(B), (a)(vi), (a)(vii) or (a)(ix) of the definition of “Consolidated EBITDA,” 15.0% of Consolidated EBITDA for such Test Period (giving pro forma effect
to the relevant Specified Transaction (but not to any cost savings or synergies)). 
 (d)    Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary herein, when calculating the Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated Secured Net Leverage Ratio or the Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio, as applicable, on a Pro Forma Basis for purposes of Section
2.14(d)(iii)(B), 7.03(r)(i)(B) or 7.03(r)(ii)(B), any Indebtedness that is incurred substantially contemporaneously therewith under any other provision of Section 2.14 or
Section 7.03 shall be disregarded. 
 Section 1.10.    Letters of Credit. Unless
otherwise specified herein, the amount of a Letter of Credit at any time shall be deemed to be the amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit in effect at such time; provided, however, that with respect to any Letter of
Credit that, by its terms or the terms of any Issuer Document related thereto, provides for one or more automatic increases in the stated amount thereof, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be the maximum stated amount of such
Letter of Credit after giving effect to all such increases, whether or not such maximum stated amount is in effect at such time. 

Section 1.11.    Certifications. All certifications to be made hereunder by an officer or representative of a
Loan Party shall be made by such person in his or her capacity solely as an officer or a representative of such Loan Party, on such Loan Party’s behalf and not in such Person’s individual capacity. 

ARTICLE II 
 THE
COMMITMENTS AND CREDIT EXTENSIONS 
 Section 2.01.    The Loans. 

(a)    Term Borrowings. Subject to the terms and conditions expressly set forth herein, each Term Lender severally
agrees to make to the Borrower on the Closing Date one or more Term Borrowings denominated in Dollars in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount of such Term Lender’s Term Commitment. Amounts borrowed under this
Section 2.01(a) and repaid or prepaid may not be re-borrowed. Term Loans may be ABR Loans or Eurodollar Rate Loans, as further provided herein. 

(b)    Revolving Credit Borrowings. Subject to the terms and conditions expressly set forth herein, after the
Closing Date each Revolving Credit Lender severally agrees to make Revolving Credit Loans, denominated in Dollars, to the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.02 (each such loan, together with any loans made pursuant to an
Extended Revolving Credit Commitment, Incremental Revolving Loans and Refinancing Revolving Credit Loans, a “Revolving Credit Loan”) from time to time, on any Business Day during the period from the Business Day immediately
following the Closing Date until the Maturity Date with respect to such Revolving Credit Lender’s applicable Revolving Credit Commitment, in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount of such Lender’s

  
 55 

 
Revolving Credit Commitment at such time; provided that after giving effect to any Revolving Credit Borrowing, the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Credit Loans of any Lender,
plus such Lender’s Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided for under this Agreement of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations, shall not exceed such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment. Within the limits of each
Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower may borrow under this Section 2.01(b), prepay under Section 2.05, and re-borrow under this Section 2.01(b) in each case without premium or penalty (subject to Section 3.05). Revolving Credit Loans may be ABR Loans or Eurodollar Rate
Loans, as further provided herein. 
 Section 2.02.    Borrowings, Conversions and Continuations of Loans.

 (a)    Each Term Borrowing, each Revolving Credit Borrowing, each conversion of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans
from one Type to the other, and each continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be made upon the Borrower’s notice to the Administrative Agent, which may be given by telephone. Each such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent
(1) not later than 1:00 p.m., three Business Days prior to the requested date of any Borrowing or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans or any conversion of ABR Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans, and (2) not later than 1:00 p.m. on the
requested date of any Borrowing of ABR Loans; provided that the notice referred to in clause (1) above may be delivered no later than one Business Day prior to the Closing Date in the case of the initial Credit
Extensions to be made on the Closing Date. Each telephonic notice by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.02(a) must be confirmed promptly by delivery (including via email) to the Administrative Agent of a written
irrevocable Committed Loan Notice (and will not be effective until so confirmed), appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower. Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.14, each Borrowing of,
conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be in a minimum principal amount of $2,000,000, or a whole multiple of $1,000,000, in excess thereof. Except as provided herein, each Borrowing of or conversion to ABR Loans shall be in a
minimum principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof. Each Committed Loan Notice (whether telephonic or written) shall specify (i) whether the Borrower is requesting a Term Borrowing, a Revolving Credit
Borrowing, a conversion of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans from one Type to the other or a continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans, (ii) the requested date of the Borrowing, conversion or continuation, as the case may be (which shall be a
Business Day), (iii) the principal amount of Loans to be borrowed, converted or continued, (iv) the Type of Loans to be borrowed or to which existing Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans are to be converted, (v) if applicable, the
duration of the Interest Period with respect thereto and (vi) wire instructions of the account(s) to which funds are to be disbursed (it being understood, for the avoidance of doubt, that the amount to be disbursed to any particular account may
be less than the minimum or multiple limitations set forth above so long as the aggregate amount to be disbursed to all such accounts pursuant to such Borrowing meets such minimums and multiples). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
until the Administrative Agent shall have notified the Borrower that the primary syndication of the Initial Term Loans has been completed, the Borrower shall not be permitted to request a Term Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans with an Interest
Period in excess of one month. If the Borrower fails to specify a Type of Loan in a Committed Loan Notice or fail to give a timely notice requesting a conversion or continuation, then the applicable Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans shall be made
as, or converted to, ABR Loans. Any such automatic conversion to ABR Loans shall be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the applicable Eurodollar Rate Loans. If the Borrower requests a Borrowing of,
conversion to, or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans in any such Committed Loan Notice, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month. 

(b)    Following receipt of a Committed Loan Notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the
amount of its Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided for 

  
 56 

 
under this Agreement of the applicable Class of Loans, and if no timely notice of a conversion or continuation is provided by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender
of the details of any automatic conversion to ABR Loans or continuation described in Section 2.02(a). In the case of each Borrowing, each Appropriate Lender shall make the amount of its Loan available to the Administrative
Agent in Same Day Funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 3:00 p.m., on the Business Day specified in the applicable Committed Loan Notice. The Administrative Agent shall make all funds so received available to the Borrower in
like funds as received by the Administrative Agent by wire transfer of such funds in accordance with instructions provided by the Borrower to (and reasonably acceptable to) the Administrative Agent; provided that if, on the date the Committed
Loan Notice with respect to such Borrowing is given by the Borrower, there are L/C Borrowings outstanding, then the proceeds of the Borrowing shall be applied, first, to the payment in full of any such L/C Borrowing and second, to the
Borrower as provided above. 
 (c)    Except as otherwise provided herein, a Eurodollar Rate Loan may be continued or
converted only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurodollar Rate Loan unless the Borrower pays the amount due, if any, under Section 3.05 in connection therewith. During the occurrence and continuation of an
Event of Default, the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders may require that no Loans may be converted to or continued as Eurodollar Rate Loans. 

(d)    The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any
Interest Period for Eurodollar Rate Loans upon determination of such interest rate. The determination of the Eurodollar Rate by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. 

(e)    After giving effect to all Term Borrowings, all Revolving Credit Borrowings, all conversions of Term Loans or
Revolving Credit Loans from one Type to the other, and all continuations of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans as the same Type, there shall not be more than eight Interest Periods in effect (or such greater amount as may be agreed by the
Administrative Agent in its sole discretion). 
 (f)    The failure of any Lender to make the Loan to be made by it as
part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Loan on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Loan to be made by such
other Lender on the date of any Borrowing. 
 (g)    Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a
Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided for under this Agreement of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent
may assume that such Lender has made such Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided for under this Agreement available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.02(b)
above, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If the Administrative Agent shall have so made funds available, then, to the extent that such Lender shall
not have made such portion available to the Administrative Agent, each of such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to repay to the Administrative Agent promptly after written demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for
each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at (i) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such
Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the Overnight Rate plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the foregoing. A certificate of the Administrative
Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this 

  
 57 

 
Section 2.02(g) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or
an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by such the Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then
the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the
Administrative Agent. 
 Section 2.03.    Letters of Credit. 

(a)    The Letter of Credit Commitment. (i) Subject to the terms and conditions expressly set forth herein,
(A) each L/C Issuer agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Revolving Credit Lenders set forth in this Section 2.03, (1) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date
until the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, to issue Letters of Credit at sight denominated in Dollars for the account of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower and to amend or renew Letters of Credit previously issued by it, in
accordance with Section 2.03(b), and (2) to honor drafts under the Letters of Credit and (B) the Revolving Credit Lenders severally agree to participate in Letters of Credit issued pursuant to this
Section 2.03; provided that no L/C Issuer shall be obligated to make any L/C Credit Extension with respect to any Letter of Credit, and no Lender shall be obligated to participate in any Letter of Credit if as of the
date of such L/C Credit Extension, (x) the Revolving Credit Exposure of any Revolving Credit Lender would exceed such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment or (y) the Outstanding Amount of the L/C Obligations would exceed the Letter of
Credit Sublimit. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the ability of the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and accordingly the Borrower and the
Restricted Subsidiaries may, during the foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit that have expired, terminated or that have been drawn upon and reimbursed. 

(ii)    An L/C Issuer shall be under no obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if: 

(A)    any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport
to enjoin or restrain such L/C Issuer from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Law applicable to such L/C Issuer or any directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such L/C Issuer shall
prohibit, or direct that such L/C Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such L/C Issuer with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital
requirement (for which such L/C Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon such L/C Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date (for which
such L/C Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder); 
 (B)    subject to
Section 2.03(b)(iii), the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur more than 12 months after the date of issuance or last renewal unless (1) each Appropriate Lender and the L/C Issuer has approved of
such expiration date or (2) the L/C Issuer thereof has approved of such expiration date and the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations in respect of such requested Letter of Credit has been Cash Collateralized or backstopped in a manner
reasonably satisfactory to such L/C Issuer; 

  
 58 

 (C)    the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit
would occur after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, unless such Letter of Credit has been Cash Collateralized or backstopped in a manner reasonably satisfactory to such L/C Issuer; 

(D)    the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate any policies of such L/C Issuer applicable to
letters of credit generally; it being understand and agreed that neither Credit Suisse AG, Cayman Islands Branch, nor any of its affiliates shall be required to issue documentary or “trade” Letters of Credit (as opposed to
“standby” Letters of Credit); and 
 (E)    any Revolving Credit Lender is at that time a
Defaulting Lender, unless such L/C Issuer has entered into arrangements, including the delivery of Cash Collateral, satisfactory to such L/C Issuer (in its sole discretion) with the Borrower or such Lender to eliminate such L/C Issuer’s actual
or potential Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.17(a)(iv)) with respect to the Defaulting Lender arising from either the Letter of Credit then proposed to be issued or that Letter of Credit and all other
L/C Obligations as to which such L/C Issuer has actual or potential Fronting Exposure as it may elect in its sole discretion. 

(iii)    An L/C Issuer shall be under no obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if (A) such L/C
Issuer would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (B) the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to such Letter of Credit. 

(iv)    Each L/C Issuer shall act on behalf of the Revolving Credit Lenders with respect to any Letters of
Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and each L/C Issuer shall have all of the benefits and immunities (A) provided to the Administrative Agent in Article IX with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by such
L/C Issuer in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and Issuer Documents pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent” as used in Article IX included such L/C
Issuer with respect to such acts or omissions, and (B) as additionally provided herein with respect to such L/C Issuer. 

(b)    Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit; Auto-Extension Letters of Credit. (i) Each
Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of the Borrower delivered to an L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in the form of a Letter of Credit Application, appropriately completed and signed
by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower. Such Letter of Credit Application must be received by the relevant L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m., at least three Business Days prior to the proposed issuance date or
date of amendment, as the case may be; or, in each case, such later date and time as the relevant L/C Issuer may agree in a particular instance in its sole discretion. In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such
Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the relevant L/C Issuer: (a) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (b) the amount thereof;
(c) the expiry date thereof; (d) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (e) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (f) the full text of any certificate to be presented by
such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; and (g) such other matters as the relevant L/C Issuer may reasonably request. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application
shall specify in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the relevant L/C Issuer: (1) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (2) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (3) the nature of the proposed
amendment; and (4) such other matters as the relevant L/C Issuer may reasonably request. 

  
 59 

 (ii)    Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit
Application, the relevant L/C Issuer will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application from the Borrower and, if not, such L/C Issuer will
provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Upon receipt by the relevant L/C Issuer of confirmation from the Administrative Agent that the requested issuance or amendment is permitted in accordance with the terms hereof, then, subject to
the terms and conditions hereof, such L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the Borrower (or its applicable Restricted Subsidiary) or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be. Immediately
upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the relevant L/C Issuer a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal
to the product of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided for under this Agreement times the stated amount of such Letter of Credit. 

(iii)    If the Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application with respect to any
standby Letter of Credit, the relevant L/C Issuer shall agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of
Credit must permit the relevant L/C Issuer to prevent any such extension at least once in each 12-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit and in no event extending beyond
the Letter of Credit Expiration Date unless the L/C Issuer thereof has approved of such expiration date and such Letter of Credit has been Cash Collateralized or backstopped in a manner reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the
applicable L/C Issuer) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such 12-month
period to be mutually agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the relevant L/C Issuer, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the relevant L/C Issuer for any such extension.
Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the relevant L/C Issuer to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the
Letter of Credit Expiration Date; provided that the relevant L/C Issuer shall not permit any such extension if (A) the relevant L/C Issuer has determined that it would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its
extended form under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of Section 2.03(a)(ii) or otherwise), or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is seven
Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date from the Administrative Agent, any Revolving Credit Lender or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in
Section 4.02 is not then satisfied or waived. 
 (iv)    Promptly after
issuance of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit, the relevant L/C Issuer will also deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment. 

(c)    Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations. (i) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any
Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the relevant L/C Issuer shall notify promptly the Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof. Not later than 1:00 p.m., on the first Business Day immediately following
any payment by an L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit, with written notice to the Borrower (each such date, an “Honor Date”), the Borrower shall be liable to reimburse such L/C Issuer through the Administrative Agent in an amount
equal to the amount of 

  
 60 

 
such drawing in Dollars; provided that if such reimbursement is not made on the date of drawing, the Borrower shall pay interest to the relevant L/C Issuer on such amount at the rate
applicable to ABR Loans (without duplication of interest payable on L/C Borrowings). The applicable L/C Issuer shall notify the Borrower in writing of the amount of the drawing promptly following the determination thereof. If the Borrower fails to
so reimburse such L/C Issuer by such time, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Appropriate Lender of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (the “Unreimbursed Amount”) and the amount of such
Appropriate Lender’s Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided for under this Agreement thereof. In such event, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Revolving Credit Borrowing of ABR Loans to be disbursed on the Honor Date
in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.02 for the principal amount of ABR Loans but subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Revolving
Credit Commitments of the Appropriate Lenders and the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (other than the delivery of a Committed Loan Notice). Any notice given by an L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this
Section 2.03(c)(i) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice. 

(ii)    Each Appropriate Lender (including any Lender acting as an L/C Issuer) shall upon any notice
pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) make funds available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant L/C Issuer in Dollars at the Administrative Agent’s Office for payments in an amount equal to its Pro Rata
Share or other applicable share provided for under this Agreement of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of
Section 2.03(c)(iii), each Appropriate Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made an ABR Loan to the Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the relevant
L/C Issuer. 
 (iii)    With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a
Revolving Credit Borrowing of ABR Loans because the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, the Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the relevant L/C Issuer an L/C
Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on written demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the Default Rate for Revolving Credit Loans (which
begins to accrue upon funding by the applicable L/C Issuer). In such event, each Appropriate Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(ii) shall
be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.03. 

(iv)    Until each Appropriate Lender funds its Revolving Credit Loan or L/C Advance pursuant to this
Section 2.03(c) to reimburse the relevant L/C Issuer for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided for under this Agreement of
such amount shall be solely for the account of the relevant L/C Issuer. 
 (v)    Each Revolving Credit
Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans or L/C Advances to reimburse an L/C Issuer for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section 2.03(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and
shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the relevant L/C Issuer, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever;
(B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or 

  
 61 

 
(C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided that each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit
Loans pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (other than delivery by the Borrower of a Committed Loan Notice). No such making of an L/C Advance
shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the relevant L/C Issuer for the amount of any payment made by such L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein. 

(vi)    If any Revolving Credit Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account
of the relevant L/C Issuer any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(c) by the time specified in Section 2.03(c)(ii), such L/C Issuer
shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to
such L/C Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect, plus any reasonable administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by such L/C Issuer in connection with the foregoing. A
certificate of the relevant L/C Issuer submitted to any Revolving Credit Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 2.03(c)(vi) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 (d)    Repayment of Participations. (i) If, at any time after an L/C Issuer has made a payment under any
Letter of Credit and has received from any Revolving Credit Lender such Lender’s L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with Section 2.03(c), the Administrative Agent receives for the account of such L/C
Issuer any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will
distribute to such Lender its Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided for under this Agreement thereof (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s L/C Advance was
outstanding) in the amount received by the Administrative Agent. 
 (ii)    If any payment received by
the Administrative Agent for the account of an L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) is required to be returned under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.06 (including pursuant to
any settlement entered into by such L/C Issuer in its discretion), each Appropriate Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such L/C Issuer its Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided for under this Agreement
thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in
effect, plus any reasonable administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by such L/C Issuer in connection with the foregoing. 

(e)    Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the relevant L/C Issuer for each drawing
under each Letter of Credit issued by it and to repay each L/C Borrowing shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following:

 (i)    any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement or any other
agreement or instrument relating thereto; 
 (ii)    the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff,
defense or other right that any Loan Party may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter 

  
 62 

 
of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the relevant L/C Issuer or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the
transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction; 

(iii)    any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to
be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such
Letter of Credit; 
 (iv)    any payment by the relevant L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit against
presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by the relevant L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter
of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law; 

(v)    any exchange, release or non-perfection of any Collateral,
or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from the Guaranty or any other guarantee, for all or any of the Obligations of any Loan Party in respect of such Letter of Credit; or 

(vi)    any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing,
including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Loan Party (other than payment in cash or performance in full); 

provided that the foregoing in clauses (i) through (vi) shall not excuse any L/C Issuer from liability to the
Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential or exemplary damages, claims in respect of which are waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable Law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by such L/C
Issuer’s (or its Related Parties’) gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined in a final and non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction when determining whether drafts and
other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. 
 (f)    Role of L/C Issuers.
Each Lender and the Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the relevant L/C Issuer shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by
the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the L/C Issuers, any Agent-Related Person nor any of the
respective correspondents, participants or assignees of any L/C Issuer shall be liable to any Lender for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Lenders or the Lenders holding a majority
of the Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined in a final and non-appealable judgment by a
court of competent jurisdiction; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Letter of Credit Application. The Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the
acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to either of their use of any Letter of Credit; provided that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Borrower pursuing such rights and remedies as it may
have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. None of the L/C 

  
 63 

 
Issuers, any Agent-Related Person, nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of any L/C Issuer, shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in
clauses (i) through (vi) of Section 2.03(e); provided that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower may have a claim against an L/C Issuer, and such
L/C Issuer may be liable to the Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the Borrower which the Borrower proves were caused by such L/C Issuer’s (or its
Related Parties’) willful misconduct or gross negligence or such L/C Issuer’s (or its Related Parties’) willful misconduct or grossly negligent failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary
of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit, in each case as determined in a final and non-appealable judgment by a court of competent
jurisdiction. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, each L/C Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the
contrary, and no L/C Issuer shall be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or
in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason. 
 (g)    Cash Collateral. (i) If, as
of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any Letter of Credit may for any reason remain outstanding and partially or wholly undrawn, (ii) if any Event of Default occurs and is continuing and the Administrative Agent or the Lenders holding a
majority of the Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, require the Borrower to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations pursuant to Section 8.02 or (iii) if an Event of Default set forth under
Section 8.01(f) occurs and is continuing, the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize all L/C Obligations in an amount equal to 103% of the Outstanding Amount of such L/C Obligations determined as of such date, and shall do so
not later than 2:00 p.m. on (x) in the case of the immediately preceding clauses (i) and (ii), the next Business Day following the Business Day that the Borrower receives written notice thereof, and
(y) in the case of the immediately preceding clause (iii), the Business Day on which an Event of Default set forth under Section 8.01(f) occurs or, if such day is not a Business Day, the
Business Day immediately succeeding such day. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, promptly upon the written request of the Administrative Agent or the applicable L/C Issuer, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent
Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to cover all Fronting Exposure (solely after giving effect to Section 2.17(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender). For purposes hereof, “Cash Collateralize”
means to pledge and deposit with or deliver to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the relevant L/C Issuer and the Appropriate Lenders, as collateral for the L/C Obligations, cash or deposit account balances (“Cash
Collateral”) pursuant to documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the relevant L/C Issuer (which documents are hereby consented to by the Appropriate Lenders). Derivatives of such term have
corresponding meanings. The Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the L/C Issuers and the Revolving Credit Lenders of the applicable Facility, a security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances
therein and all proceeds of the foregoing. Cash Collateral shall be maintained in blocked accounts at the Administrative Agent and may be invested in readily available Cash Equivalents (for the benefit of the Borrower). If at any time the
Administrative Agent determines that any funds held as Cash Collateral are expressly subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) or nonconsensual liens permitted under
Section 7.01 or that the total amount of such funds is less than the aggregate Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations, the Borrower will, promptly following written demand by the Administrative Agent, pay to the
Administrative Agent, as additional funds to be deposited and held in the deposit accounts at the Administrative Agent as aforesaid, an amount equal to the excess of (a) such aggregate Outstanding Amount over (b) the total amount of funds,
if any, then held as Cash Collateral that the Administrative Agent reasonably determines to be free and clear of any such right and claim. Upon the drawing of any Letter of Credit for which funds are on deposit as Cash Collateral, such funds shall
be applied, to the 

  
 64 

 
extent permitted under applicable Law, to reimburse the relevant L/C Issuer. To the extent the amount of any Cash Collateral exceeds the then Outstanding Amount of such L/C Obligations and so
long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the excess shall be refunded to the Borrower. To the extent any Event of Default giving rise to the requirement to Cash Collateralize any Letter of Credit pursuant to this
Section 2.03(g) is cured or otherwise waived by the Required Lenders, then so long as no other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, all Cash Collateral pledged to Cash Collateralize such Letter of Credit shall
be promptly refunded to the applicable. If at any time the Administrative Agent reasonably determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent as herein provided or Liens described
above, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the applicable Fronting Exposure and other obligations secured thereby, the Borrower or the relevant Defaulting Lender will, promptly following written demand by the Administrative
Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency. 

(h)    Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving
Credit Lender for the applicable Revolving Credit Facility in accordance with its Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided for under this Agreement a Letter of Credit fee for each Letter of Credit issued pursuant to this Agreement equal to
the Applicable Margin times the daily maximum amount then available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit (whether or not such maximum amount is then in effect under such Letter of Credit if such maximum amount increases periodically pursuant to
the terms of such Letter of Credit); provided that (x) if any portion of a Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any Letter of Credit is Cash Collateralized by the Borrower or reallocated to the other Revolving Credit Lenders
pursuant to Section 2.17(a)(iv), then the Borrower shall not be required to pay a Letter of Credit fee to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share so long as it is
Cash Collateralized by the Borrower or reallocated to the other Revolving Credit Lenders, but such Letter of Credit fee shall instead be payable to such other Revolving Credit Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Share of such reallocated
amount, and (y) if any portion of a Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share is not Cash Collateralized or reallocated pursuant to Section 2.17(a)(iv), then the Letter of Credit fee with respect to such Defaulting
Lender’s Pro Rata Share shall be payable to the applicable L/C Issuer until such Pro Rata Share is Cash Collateralized or reallocated or such Lender ceases to be a Defaulting Lender. Such Letter of Credit fees shall be computed on a quarterly
basis in arrears. Such Letter of Credit fees shall be due and payable in Dollars on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the
earlier to occur of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and the Maturity Date then in effect for the applicable Revolving Credit Facility or the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitment of all Lenders shall be terminated as provided herein. If
there is any change in the Applicable Margin during any quarter, the daily maximum amount of each Letter of Credit shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Margin separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Margin
was in effect. 
 (i)    Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to L/C Issuers. The Borrower
shall pay directly to each L/C Issuer for its own account a fronting fee with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by it to any Consolidated Party equal to 0.125% per annum of the maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of
Credit (whether or not such maximum amount is then in effect under such Letter of Credit if such maximum amount increases periodically pursuant to the terms of such Letter of Credit) or such lesser fee as may be agreed with such L/C Issuer (the
“L/C Fronting Fee”). Such fronting fees shall be computed on a quarterly basis in arrears. Such fronting fees shall be due and payable in Dollars on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with
the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the earlier to occur of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitment of all Lenders shall be terminated as provided herein. In
addition, the Borrower shall pay directly to each 

  
 65 

 
L/C Issuer for its own account with respect to each Letter of Credit issued to the Loan Parties the customary and reasonable issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other
standard costs and charges, of such L/C Issuer relating to letters of credit as from time to time in effect. Such customary fees and standard costs and charges are due and payable within 10 Business Days of demand and are nonrefundable. 

(j)    Conflict with Letter of Credit Application. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in this Agreement
or any Letter of Credit Application, in the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any Letter of Credit Application, the terms hereof shall control. 

(k)    Addition of an L/C Issuer. A Revolving Credit Lender reasonably acceptable to the Borrower may become an
additional L/C Issuer hereunder pursuant to a written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and such Revolving Credit Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Revolving Credit Lenders of any such additional L/C Issuer. 

(l)    Reporting. Each L/C Issuer will report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) on the first Business
Day of each calendar month, the aggregate face amount of Letters of Credit issued by it and outstanding as of the last Business Day of the preceding calendar month (and on such other dates as the Administrative Agent may request), (ii) on or prior
to each Business Day on which such L/C Issuer expects to issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance or amendment, and the aggregate face amount of Letters of Credit to be issued, amended, renewed or extended by it
and outstanding after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (and such L/C Issuer shall advise the Administrative Agent on such Business Day whether such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension occurred and whether the
amount thereof changed), (iii) on each Business Day on which such L/C Issuer makes any L/C Disbursement, the date and amount of such L/C Disbursement and (iv) on any Business Day on which the Borrower fails to reimburse an L/C Disbursement
required to be reimbursed to such L/C Issuer on such day, the date and amount of such failure. 
 (m)    Provisions
Related to Extended Revolving Credit Commitments. If the Letter of Credit Expiration Date in respect of any tranche of Revolving Credit Commitments occurs prior to the expiry date of any Letter of Credit, then (i) if one or more other
tranches of Revolving Credit Commitments in respect of which the Letter of Credit Expiration Date shall not have so occurred are then in effect, such Letters of Credit shall, to the extent such Letters of Credit could have been issued under such
other tranches, automatically be deemed to have been issued (including for purposes of the obligations of the Revolving Credit Lenders to purchase participations therein and to make Revolving Credit Loans and payments in respect thereof pursuant to
Sections 2.03(c) and (d)) under (and ratably participated in by Lenders pursuant to) the Revolving Credit Commitments in respect of such non-terminating tranches up to an
aggregate amount not to exceed the aggregate principal amount of the unutilized Revolving Credit Commitments thereunder at such time (it being understood that no partial face amount of any Letter of Credit may be so reallocated) and (ii) to the
extent not reallocated pursuant to the immediately preceding clause (i), the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize any such Letter of Credit in accordance with Section 2.03(g). Commencing with the
maturity date of any tranche of Revolving Credit Commitments, the sublimit for Letters of Credit shall be agreed solely with each L/C Issuer. 

(n)    Letters of Credit Issued for Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding
hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Restricted Subsidiary, the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit. The Borrower
hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of Restricted Subsidiaries (whether or not a direct or indirect Subsidiary of the Borrower) inures to the benefit of the Borrower, and that the Borrower’s business
derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Restricted Subsidiaries.

 Section 2.04.    [Reserved]. 

Section 2.05.    Prepayments. 

(a)    Optional. (i) The Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, at any time or from time to
time voluntarily prepay any Class or Classes of Term Loans and Revolving Credit Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty (except as expressly set forth in this Section 2.05); provided that
(1) such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. (A) three Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans and (B) on the Business Day prior to any prepayment of ABR
Loans; (2) any prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be in a minimum principal amount of $2,000,000, or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; and (3) any prepayment of ABR Loans shall be in a minimum principal amount of
$1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof or, in each case, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the Class(es) and Type(s) of
Loans to be prepaid. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Appropriate Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided for under this Agreement of such
prepayment. If such notice is given by the Borrower, unless rescinded pursuant to clause (iii) below, the Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified
therein. Any prepayment of a Loan (other than prepayments of ABR Revolving Credit Loans that are not made in connection with the termination or permanent reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments) shall be accompanied by all accrued interest
thereon, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to clause (ii) below and Section 3.05. In the case of each prepayment of the Loans pursuant to this Section 2.05(a), the
Borrower may in its sole discretion select the Borrowing or Borrowings to be repaid, and such payment shall be paid to the Appropriate Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares or other applicable share provided for under this
Agreement. 
 (ii)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in the event
that, on or prior to the date that is six months after the Closing Date, any Loan Party (x) prepays, refinances, substitutes or replaces any Initial Term Loans in connection with a Repricing Event or (y) effects any amendment of this
Agreement resulting in a Repricing Event, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent (A) in the case of clause (x), for the ratable account of each of the applicable Lenders a prepayment premium of 1.00% of the aggregate
principal amount of the Initial Term Loans so prepaid, refinanced, substituted or replaced and (B) in the case of clause (y), for the ratable account of each of the Lenders (including any Lender that withholds its consent to such
amendment and that is required to assign its Initial Term Loan pursuant to Section 3.07), a fee equal to 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the applicable Initial Term Loans of such Lender outstanding immediately
prior to such amendment. Such amounts shall be due and payable on the date of effectiveness of such Repricing Event or amendment and shall be a condition precedent to the effectiveness of any such amendment. 

(iii)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Borrower may rescind any
notice of prepayment under Section 2.05(a)(i) by notice to the Administrative Agent on the date of prepayment if such prepayment would have resulted from a refinancing of all or any portion of the applicable Class or
occurrence of another event, which refinancing or event shall not be consummated or shall otherwise be delayed (subject to payment of amounts due under Section 3.05). 

  
 67 

 (iv)    Voluntary prepayments of any Class of Term Loans
permitted hereunder shall be applied first to ABR Loans to the full extent thereof before application to Eurodollar Rate Loans, in each case in a manner that minimizes the amount of any payments required to be made by the Borrower pursuant to
Section 3.05. 
 (v)    Voluntary prepayments of any Class of Term Loans permitted hereunder
shall be applied to the remaining scheduled installments of principal thereof pursuant to Section 2.07(a) in a manner determined at the discretion of the Borrower and specified in the notice of prepayment (and absent such direction, in direct order
of maturity). 
 (b)    Mandatory. (i) Within five Business Days after financial statements have been
delivered pursuant to Section 6.01(a) (commencing in respect of the fiscal year ending December 31, 2018) and the related Compliance Certificate has been delivered pursuant to Section 6.02(a),
the Borrower shall cause to be prepaid an aggregate principal amount of Term Loans in an amount equal to (A) the Applicable ECF Percentage of Excess Cash Flow, if any, for the fiscal year covered by such financial statements minus,
(B) at the option of the Borrower (without duplication of any amount deducted from Consolidated Net Income in calculating Excess Cash Flow for such period) (x) the sum of (1) all voluntary prepayments of Term Loans during such fiscal
year or after year-end and prior to the date such Excess Cash Flow prepayment is due, and (2) all voluntary prepayments of Revolving Credit Loans, Extended Revolving Credit Loans, Refinancing Revolving
Credit Loans and Incremental Revolving Loans during such fiscal year or after year-end and prior to the date such Excess Cash Flow prepayment is due, to the extent the Revolving Credit Commitments, Extended
Revolving Credit Commitments, Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments and/or Revolving Commitment Increase, as the case may be, are permanently reduced by the amount of such payments, in the case of each of the immediately preceding
clauses (1) and (2), to the extent such prepayments are funded with Internally Generated Cash; provided that, to the extent any deduction is made pursuant to the foregoing clauses (1)
and (2) after year-end and prior to the date such Excess Cash Flow prepayment is due, such prepayment shall not be deducted with respect to the Excess Cash Flow prepayment for the succeeding fiscal
year, and (y) incremental reserves of the BD Subsidiary in an aggregate amount for any Excess Cash Flow Period equal to the lesser of (1) the amount that is necessary to meet the capital reserve requirements of the BD Subsidiary for such
period and (2) $5,000,000. 
 (ii)    If (1) any Consolidated Party Disposes of any property or
assets pursuant to Section 7.05(i), (l) or (m), or (2) any Casualty Event occurs, in either case that results in the realization or receipt by a Consolidated Party of Net Proceeds, the Borrower shall cause to be prepaid on
or prior to the date that is five Business Days after the date of the realization or receipt by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary of such Net Proceeds (or such later time that the Borrower is entitled to reinvest Net Proceeds as provided in
the definition of “Net Proceeds”), an aggregate principal amount of Term Loans in an amount equal to 100% of all such Net Proceeds; provided that if at the time that any such prepayment would be required, the Borrower is required to
offer to repurchase or prepay Permitted Equal Priority Refinancing Debt or any Permitted Refinancing of any such Indebtedness (to the extent secured by Liens on the Collateral on a pari passu basis with the Obligations), in each case pursuant
to the terms of the documentation governing such Indebtedness with the net proceeds of such Disposition or Casualty Event (such Permitted Equal Priority Refinancing Debt (or the Permitted Refinancing of any such Indebtedness) required to be offered
to be so repurchased, “Other Applicable Indebtedness”), then the Borrower may apply such Net Proceeds on a pro rata basis (determined on the basis of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans and Other
Applicable Indebtedness at such time; provided that the portion of such net proceeds allocated to the Other Applicable Indebtedness shall not exceed the amount of such net proceeds required to be allocated to the Other Applicable Indebtedness
pursuant to the terms thereof, and the remaining 

  
 68 

 
amount, if any, of such net proceeds shall be allocated to the Term Loans in accordance with the terms hereof) to the prepayment of the Term Loans and to the repurchase or prepayment of Other
Applicable Indebtedness, and the amount of prepayment of the Term Loans that would have otherwise been required pursuant to this Section 2.05(b)(ii) shall be reduced accordingly; provided, further, that to the
extent the holders of Other Applicable Indebtedness decline to have such indebtedness repurchased or prepaid, the declined amount shall promptly (and in any event within five Business Days after the date of such rejection) be applied to prepay the
Term Loans in accordance with the terms hereof. 
 (iii)    If any Consolidated Party incurs or issues
any Indebtedness after the Closing Date (A) not permitted to be incurred or issued pursuant to Section 7.03 or (B) that is intended to constitute Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness in respect of any
Class of Term Loans, the Borrower shall cause to be prepaid an aggregate principal amount of Term Loans (or, in the case of Indebtedness constituting Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness, the applicable Class of Term Loans) in an
amount equal to 100% of all Net Proceeds received therefrom on or prior to the date that is three Business Days after the receipt by such Consolidated Party of such Net Proceeds. For the avoidance of doubt, in connection with any prepayment under
Section 2.05(b)(iii)(B) that constitutes a Repricing Event that is consummated in respect of all or any portion of the Initial Term Loans prior to the date that is six months after the Closing Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Term Lenders
the fees specified in Section 2.05(a)(ii). 
 (iv)    If for any reason the aggregate Outstanding
Amount of Revolving Credit Loans and L/C Obligations at any time exceeds the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect, the Borrower shall promptly prepay Revolving Credit Loans and/or Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations in an
aggregate amount equal to such excess; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations pursuant to this Section 2.05(b)(iv) unless, after the prepayment in full of the
Revolving Credit Loans, such aggregate Outstanding Amount exceeds the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect. 

(v)    Except as otherwise provided in any Refinancing Amendment, Extension Amendment or any Incremental
Amendment or as otherwise provided herein, (A) each prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.05(b) shall be applied ratably to each Class of Term Loans then outstanding (provided that any prepayment of Term Loans
with the Net Proceeds of Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness shall be applied solely to each applicable Class of Refinanced Debt), (B) with respect to each Class of Term Loans, each prepayment pursuant to
clause (ii) or (iii) of this Section 2.05(b) shall be applied to the scheduled installments of principal thereof following the date of such prepayment in direct order of maturity and
(C) each such prepayment shall be paid to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares of such prepayment. 

(vi)    The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of any mandatory prepayment of Term
Loans required to be made by the Borrower pursuant to clause (i), (ii), or (iii) of this Section 2.05(b) not later than 1:00 p.m. at least three Business Days prior to the date
of such prepayment. Each such notice shall specify the date of such prepayment and provide a reasonably detailed calculation of the aggregate amount of such prepayment to be made by the Borrower. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each
Appropriate Lender of the contents of the Borrower’s prepayment notice and of such Appropriate Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the prepayment. Each Term Lender may reject all of its Pro Rata Share of any mandatory prepayment (such declined
amounts, the “Declined Proceeds”) of Term Loans 

  
 69 

 
required to be made pursuant to clause (i), (ii), or (iii)(A) of this Section 2.05(b) by providing written notice (each, a
“Rejection Notice”) to the Administrative Agent no later than 5:00 p.m. one Business Day after the date of such Lender’s receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent regarding such prepayment; provided,
however, in no event may the proceeds of any Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness be rejected. If a Term Lender fails to deliver a Rejection Notice to the Administrative Agent within the time frame specified above such failure will be
deemed an acceptance of the total amount of such mandatory prepayment of Term Loans. Any Declined Proceeds shall be retained by the Borrower. 

(vii)    In connection with any mandatory prepayments by the Borrower of the Term Loans pursuant to this
Section 2.05(b), such prepayments shall be applied on a pro rata basis to the then outstanding Term Loans being prepaid irrespective of whether such outstanding Term Loans are ABR Loans or Eurodollar Rate Loans; provided that if no
Lenders exercise the right to waive a given mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.05(b)(vi), then, with respect to such mandatory prepayment, the amount of such mandatory prepayment shall be applied first to Term Loans
that are ABR Loans to the full extent thereof before application to Term Loans that are Eurodollar Rate Loans in a manner that minimizes the amount of any payments required to be made by the Borrower pursuant to
Section 3.05. 
 (c)    Interest, Funding Losses, Etc. All prepayments under this
Section 2.05 shall be accompanied by all accrued interest thereon (other than prepayments of ABR Revolving Credit Loans that are not made in connection with the termination or permanent reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments),
together with, in the case of any such prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan on a date prior to the last day of an Interest Period therefor, any amounts owing in respect of such Eurodollar Rate Loan pursuant to Section 3.05.

 Notwithstanding any of the other provisions of this Section 2.05, so long as no Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, if any prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans is required to be made under this Section 2.05 prior to the last day of the Interest Period therefor, in lieu of making any payment pursuant to this
Section 2.05 in respect of any such Eurodollar Rate Loan prior to the last day of the Interest Period therefor, the Borrower may, in its sole discretion, deposit an amount sufficient to make any such prepayment otherwise
required to be made thereunder together with accrued interest to the last day of such Interest Period into a Cash Collateral Account until the last day of such Interest Period, at which time the Administrative Agent shall be authorized (without any
further action by or notice to or from the Borrower or any other Loan Party) to apply such amount to the prepayment of such Loans in accordance with this Section 2.05. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any
Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall also be authorized (without any further action by or notice to or from the Borrower or any other Loan Party) to apply such amount to the prepayment of the outstanding Loans in accordance with the
relevant provisions of this Section 2.05. Such deposit shall be deemed to be a prepayment of such Loans by the Borrower for all purposes under this Agreement. 

Section 2.06.    Termination or Reduction of Commitments. 

(a)    Optional. The Borrower may, upon written notice to the Administrative Agent, terminate the unused Commitments
of any Class, or from time to time permanently reduce the unused Commitments of any Class, in each case without premium or penalty; provided that (i) any such notice shall be received by the Administrative Agent three Business Days prior
to the date of termination or reduction, (ii) any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of $5,000,000, or any whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof or, if less, the
entire amount thereof and (iii) if, after giving effect to any reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments, the Letter of Credit Sublimit exceeds the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments, such sublimit shall be automatically reduced by
the amount of 

  
 70 

 
such excess. Except as provided above, the amount of any such Commitment reduction shall not be applied to the Letter of Credit Sublimit unless otherwise specified by the Borrower.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower may rescind or postpone any notice of termination of any Commitments if such termination would have resulted from a refinancing of all or any portion of the applicable Class or occurrence of other
event, which refinancing or other event shall not be consummated or otherwise shall be delayed. 

(b)    Mandatory. The Initial Term Commitments of each Term Lender shall be automatically and permanently reduced
to $0 upon the funding of the Initial Term Loans to be made by such Term Lender on the Closing Date. The Revolving Credit Commitments of each Revolving Credit Lender shall automatically and permanently terminate on the Maturity Date. 

(c)    Application of Commitment Reductions; Payment of Fees. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the
Appropriate Lenders of any termination or reduction of unused portion of the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the unused Commitments of any Class under this Section 2.06. The amount of any such reduction of the Revolving
Credit Commitments shall not be applied to the Letter of Credit Sublimit unless otherwise specified by the Borrower. Upon any reduction of unused Commitments of any Class, the Commitment of each Lender of such Class shall be reduced by such
Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the amount by which such Commitments are reduced. All commitment fees accrued until the effective date of any termination of the Aggregate Commitments of any Class shall be paid to the Appropriate Lenders on the
effective date of such termination. 
 Section 2.07.    Repayment of Loans. 

(a)    Term Loans. Commencing with the first full quarter ending after the Closing Date, the Borrower shall repay to
the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Appropriate Lenders on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, in an amount equal to 0.25% of the aggregate amount of all Initial Term Loans outstanding on the
Closing Date (which payments shall be reduced as a result of the application of prepayments made in accordance with the order of priority set forth in Section 2.05), with the remaining principal amount of the Initial Term
Loans then outstanding due and payable in full on the Maturity Date. 
 (b)    Revolving Credit Loans. The
Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Appropriate Lenders on the Maturity Date for the applicable Revolving Credit Facility the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Credit Loans under such Facility
outstanding on such date. 
 Section 2.08.    Interest. 

(a)    Subject to the provisions of Section 2.08(b), (i) each Eurodollar Rate Loan shall
bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin and (ii) each ABR Loan shall bear interest on
the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the ABR plus the Applicable Margin. 

(b)    After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under
Section 8.01(a) or 8.01(f) (or, with respect to the existence of any other Event of Default, at the election of the Required Lenders), the Borrower shall pay interest on past due amounts owing by it hereunder at a
fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws; provided that no interest at the Default Rate shall accrue or be payable to a Defaulting Lender so long as
such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender. Accrued and unpaid interest on such amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon written demand. 

  
 71 

 (c)    Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each
Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified herein. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any
proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law. 
 Section 2.09.    Fees. In addition to certain fees described in
Sections 2.03(h) and (i): 
 (a)    Commitment Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay
to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender under each Revolving Credit Facility in accordance with its Pro Rata Share or other applicable share provided for under this Agreement, a commitment fee equal to the
Applicable Margin with respect to commitment fees for such Facility times the actual daily amount by which the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments for such Facility exceeds the sum of (A) the Outstanding Amount of Revolving Credit
Loans for such Facility plus (B) the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations for such Facility; provided that any commitment fee accrued with respect to any of the Commitments of a Defaulting Lender during the period prior to the
time such Lender became a Defaulting Lender and unpaid at such time shall not be payable by the Borrower so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender except to the extent that such commitment fee shall otherwise have been due and payable by
the Borrower prior to such time; provided, further, that no commitment fee shall accrue on any of the Commitments of a Defaulting Lender so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender. The commitment fee on each Revolving Credit
Facility shall accrue at all times from the Closing Date until the Maturity Date for such Revolving Credit Facility, including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Article IV is not met, and shall be
due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur during the first full fiscal quarter after the Closing Date, and on the Maturity Date for such
Revolving Credit Facility. The commitment fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there is any change in the Applicable Margin during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Margin
separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Margin was in effect. 
 (b)    Other Fees.
The Borrower shall pay to the Agents such fees as shall have been separately agreed upon in writing (including pursuant to the Engagement Letter and the Administrative Agent Fee Letter) in the amounts and at the times so specified. Such fees shall
be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever (except as expressly agreed between the Borrower and the applicable Agent). 

Section 2.10.    Computation of Interest and Fees. All computations of interest for ABR Loans (including ABR
Loans determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate) shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 days, or 366 days, as applicable, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed. Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion
is paid; provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.12(a), bear interest for one day. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or
fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. 

  
 72 

 Section 2.11.    Evidence of Indebtedness. 

(a)    The Credit Extensions made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such
Lender and evidenced by one or more entries in the Register maintained by the Administrative Agent, acting solely for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 5f.103-1(c), as a non-fiduciary agent for the Borrower, in each case in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be prima facie evidence absent manifest
error of the amount of the Credit Extensions made by the Lenders to the Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower
hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the
accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative
Agent) a Note payable to such Lender, which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount and maturity of its
Loans and payments with respect thereto. 
 (b)    In addition to the accounts and records referred to in
Section 2.11(a), each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records and, in the case of the Administrative Agent, entries in the Register, evidencing the
purchases and sales by such Lender of participations in Letters of Credit. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any Lender in respect of such matters,
the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. 
 (c)    Entries
made in good faith by the Administrative Agent in the Register pursuant to Sections 2.11(a) and (b), and by each Lender in its account or accounts pursuant to Section 2.11(a) and (b), shall be prima facie evidence of the
amount of principal and interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to, in the case of the Register, each Lender and, in the case of such account or accounts, such Lender, under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, absent manifest error; provided that the failure of the Administrative Agent or such Lender to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligations of the Borrower to repay the Loans in
accordance with their terms. 
 Section 2.12.    Payments Generally. 

(a)    All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense,
recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein. All payments by the Borrower hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the applicable
Administrative Agent’s Office in Dollars and in Same Day Funds not later than 1:00 p.m. on the date specified herein. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Appropriate Lender its Pro Rata Share (or other applicable
share provided for under this Agreement) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s applicable Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after the time specified above shall be deemed
received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. 

(b)    Except as otherwise provided herein, if any payment to be made by the Borrower shall come due on a day other than a
Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following 

  
 73 

 
Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be; provided that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or
principal of Eurodollar Rate Loans to be made in the next succeeding calendar month, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. 

(c)    Unless the Borrower or any Lender has notified the Administrative Agent, prior to the date any payment is required
to be made by it to the Administrative Agent hereunder, that the Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, has timely made such
payment and may (but shall not be so required to), in reliance thereon, make available a corresponding amount to the Person entitled thereto. If and to the extent that such payment was not in fact made to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds,
then: 
 (i)    if the Borrower has failed to make such payment, each Lender shall forthwith on demand
repay to the Administrative Agent the portion of such assumed payment that was made available to such Lender in Same Day Funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such amount was made available by the
Administrative Agent to such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds at the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect; and 

(ii)    if any Lender failed to make such payment, such Lender shall forthwith on demand pay to the
Administrative Agent the amount thereof in Same Day Funds, together with interest thereon for the period from the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower to the date such amount is recovered by the
Administrative Agent (the “Compensation Period”) at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. When such Lender makes payment to the Administrative Agent (together with all accrued
interest thereon), then such payment amount (excluding the amount of any interest which may have accrued and been paid in respect of such late payment) shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in the applicable Borrowing. If such Lender
does not pay such amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent may make a demand therefor upon the Borrower, and the Borrower shall pay such amount to the Administrative Agent, together with
interest thereon for the Compensation Period at a rate per annum equal to the rate of interest applicable to the applicable Borrowing. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment or to
prejudice any rights which the Administrative Agent or the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder. 

A written notice (including documentation reasonably supporting such request) of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Borrower with
respect to any amount owing under this Section 2.12(c) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. 

(d)    If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender as provided
in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Credit Extension set forth in
Article IV are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest. 

(e)    The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans and to fund participations in Letters of Credit are several
and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan or to fund any such participation on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible
for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan or purchase its participation. 

  
 74 

 (f)    Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the
funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner. 

(g)    Whenever any payment received by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents
is insufficient to pay in full all amounts due and payable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under or in respect of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on any date, such payment shall be distributed by the Administrative Agent and
applied by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in the order of priority set forth in Section 8.03. If the Administrative Agent receives funds for application to the Obligations of the Loan Parties under or in respect
of the Loan Documents under circumstances for which the Loan Documents do not specify the manner in which such funds are to be applied, the Administrative Agent may (to the fullest extent permitted by mandatory provisions of applicable Law), but
shall not be obligated to, elect to distribute such funds to each of the Lenders in accordance with such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the sum of (a) the Outstanding Amount of all Loans outstanding at such time and (b) the Outstanding
Amount of all L/C Obligations outstanding at such time, in repayment or prepayment of such of the outstanding Loans or other Obligations then owing to such Lender. 

(h)    Amounts to be applied to the prepayment of Loans in connection with any mandatory prepayments by the Borrower of
the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.05(b) shall be applied, as applicable, on a pro rata basis to the then outstanding Term Loans being prepaid irrespective of whether such outstanding Term Loans are ABR Loans or Eurodollar Rate
Loans; provided that if no Lenders exercise the right to waive a given mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.05(b)(vi), then, with respect to such mandatory prepayment, the amount of such mandatory prepayment
shall be applied first to reduce outstanding ABR Loans. Any amounts remaining after each such application shall be applied to prepay Eurodollar Rate Loans in a manner that minimizes the amount of any payments required to be made by the Borrower
pursuant to Section 3.05. 
 Section 2.13.    Sharing of Payments. If, other than
as provided elsewhere herein, any Lender shall obtain payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of setoff, or otherwise) in respect of any principal or interest on account of the Loans or the participations in L/C
Obligations held by it, in excess of its ratable share (or other share contemplated hereunder) thereof, such Lender shall immediately (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase from the other Lenders such
participations in the Loans made by them and/or such sub-participations in the participations in L/C Obligations held by them, as the case may be, as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share
the excess payment in respect of any principal or interest on such Loans or such participations, as the case may be, pro rata with each of them; provided that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from
the purchasing Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.06 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the purchasing Lender in its discretion), such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded
and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying Lender’s
required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered, without further interest thereon. For the
avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (A) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement as in effect from time to time (including the
application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender) or (B) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for 

  
 75 

 
the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant permitted hereunder. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another
Lender may, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of setoff, but subject to Section 10.09) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender
were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. The Administrative Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased under this
Section 2.13 and will in each case notify the Lenders following any such purchases or repayments. Each Lender that purchases a participation pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall from and after such
purchase have the right to give all notices, requests, demands, directions and other communications under this Agreement with respect to the portion of the Obligations purchased to the same extent as though the purchasing Lender were the original
owner of the Obligations purchased. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.13 or
elsewhere in this Agreement, the Borrower may extend the final maturity of Term Loans and/or Revolving Credit Commitments in connection with an Extension that is permitted under Section 2.16 without being obligated to
effect such extensions on a pro rata basis among the Lenders (it being understood that no such extension (i) shall constitute a payment or prepayment of any Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans, as applicable, for purposes of this
Section 2.13 or (ii) shall reduce the amount of any scheduled amortization payment due under Section 2.07(a), except that the amount of any scheduled amortization payment due to a Lender of
Extended Term Loans may be reduced to the extent provided pursuant to the express terms of the respective Extension Amendment) without giving rise to any violation of this Section 2.13 or any other provision of this
Agreement. Furthermore, the Borrower may take all actions contemplated by Section 2.16 in connection with any Extension (including modifying pricing, amortization and repayments or prepayments), and in each case such
actions shall be permitted, and the differing payments contemplated therein shall be permitted, without giving rise to any violation of this Section 2.13 or any other provision of this Agreement. 

Section 2.14.    Incremental Credit Extensions. 

(a)    Incremental Commitments. The Borrower may at any time or from time to time after the Closing Date, by notice
to the Administrative Agent (an “Incremental Request”), request (i) one or more new commitments which shall be in the same Facility as any outstanding Term Loans (a “Term Loan Increase”) or a new Class of
term loans (collectively with any Term Loan Increase, the “Incremental Term Commitments”) under this Agreement and/or (ii) (A) one or more increases in the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments (a “Revolving
Commitment Increase”) and/or (B) the establishment of one or more new Revolving Credit Commitments (any such new commitment, a “New Revolving Credit Commitment” and, together with Revolving Commitment Increases, the
“Incremental Revolving Loan Commitments” and, collectively with any Incremental Term Commitments, the “Incremental Commitments”), whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the
Lenders. 
 (b)    Incremental Loans. Any Incremental Term Loans (other than Term Loan Increases) effected
through the establishment of one or more new Term Loans made on an Incremental Facility Closing Date shall be designated a separate Class of Incremental Term Loans for all purposes of this Agreement. On any Incremental Facility Closing Date on
which any Incremental Term Commitments of any Class are effected (including through any Term Loan Increase), subject to the satisfaction (or waiver) of the terms and conditions in this Section 2.14, (i) each
Incremental Term Lender of such Class shall make a Loan to the Borrower (an “Incremental Term Loan”) in an amount equal to its Incremental Term Commitment of such Class and (ii) each Incremental Term Lender of such
Class shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to the Incremental Term Commitment of such Class and the Incremental Term Loans of such Class made pursuant thereto. On any Incremental Facility Closing Date on which any

  
 76 

 
Incremental Revolving Loan Commitment is effected, subject to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions in this Section 2.14, (i) each Incremental Revolving
Credit Lender shall make its Commitment available to the Borrower (when borrowed, an “Incremental Revolving Loan” and, collectively with any Incremental Term Loan, an “Incremental Loan”) in an amount equal to its
Revolving Commitment Increase or New Revolving Credit Commitment, as applicable, and (ii) each Incremental Revolving Credit Lender shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to the Revolving Commitment Increase or the New Revolving Credit
Commitment, as applicable, and the Incremental Revolving Loans made pursuant thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Incremental Term Loans may have identical terms to any of the Term Loans and be treated as the same Class as any of such Term
Loans. 
 (c)    Incremental Request. Each Incremental Request from the Borrower pursuant to this
Section 2.14 shall set forth the requested amount and proposed terms of the relevant Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Loan Commitments. Incremental Term Loans may be made, and Incremental Revolving Loan
Commitments may be provided, by any existing Lender (but no existing Lender will have an obligation to make any Incremental Commitment, nor will the Borrower have any obligation to approach any existing Lenders to request any Incremental Commitment)
or by any other Person that is not (w) a Disqualified Lender, (x) a Defaulting Lender, (y) a natural Person or (z) the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (any such Person being called an “Additional Lender”)
(each such existing Lender or Additional Lender providing such, an “Incremental Revolving Credit Lender” or “Incremental Term Lender,” as applicable, and, collectively, the “Incremental Lenders”);
provided that the Administrative Agent and each L/C Issuer shall have consented (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) to such Lender’s or Additional Lender’s making such Incremental Term Loans or providing such
Incremental Revolving Loan Commitments to the extent such consent, if any, would be required under Section 10.07(b) for an assignment of Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, to such Lender or Additional
Lender. 
 (d)    Effectiveness of Incremental Amendment. The effectiveness of any Incremental Amendment, and the
Incremental Commitments thereunder, shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date of such Incremental Amendment (the “Incremental Facility Closing Date”) of each of the following conditions: 

(i)    no Default or Event of Default shall exist after giving effect to such Incremental Commitments, and
the representations and warranties in Article V of this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects (or, in the case of any representation and warranty that is qualified as to “materiality,” “Material Adverse
Effect” or similar language, in all respects) on and as of the date of the incurrence of such Incremental Commitments (although any representations or warranties which expressly relate to a given date or period shall be required only to be true
and correct in all material respects (or in all respects, as applicable) as of the respective date or for the respective period, as the case may be); provided that in the case of Incremental Commitments incurred to finance a Permitted
Acquisition or Investment permitted under Section 7.02(o), (s) or (t) that, in any such case, is not conditioned on the availability of financing (each, a “Limited Condition Transaction”), (x) such
requirement shall be subject to customary “SunGard” conditionality (including waiver or non-requirement of (1) the representations and warranties hereunder (other than customary
“specified” representations and warranties) and (2) the absence of a Default or Event of Default (other than with respect to a Default or Event of Default under Section 8.01(a) or (f)) and (y) the Consolidated First
Lien Net Leverage Ratio set forth in clause (iii)(B) below may, at the Borrower’s election, be tested at the time such Limited Condition Transaction is committed and will not be tested upon consummation thereof, in each case if otherwise
agreed by the Incremental Lenders providing such Incremental Commitments; 

  
 77 

 (ii)    each Incremental Term Commitment shall be in an
aggregate principal amount that is not less than $10,000,000 and shall be in an increment of $1,000,000 and each Incremental Revolving Loan Commitment shall be in an aggregate principal amount
that is not less than $5,000,000 and shall be in an increment of $1,000,000; 
 (iii)    the aggregate
amount of the Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Revolving Loan Commitments shall not exceed (A) an amount equal to $60,000,000 (net of Indebtedness incurred pursuant to Section 7.03(r)(i)(A) or (ii)(A)) plus
(B) up to an additional amount of Incremental Term Loans and/or Incremental Revolving Loan Commitments so long as on and as of the date of the incurrence of such Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Commitments, the Consolidated First Lien Net
Leverage Ratio (determined on a Pro Forma Basis, including the pro forma effect of any Specified Transaction to be financed (in whole or in part) with the proceeds of the Incremental Loan, and assuming all previously established and simultaneously
established Incremental Revolving Loan Commitments or revolving loan commitments incurred under Section 7.03(r)(i) are fully drawn and excluding the cash proceeds of (x) any borrowing under any such Incremental Revolving Loan
Commitments, (y) any Incremental Term Loans and (z) any other Indebtedness that is incurred substantially concurrently therewith) is no more than 3.30 to 1.00; and 

(iv)    [reserved]; 

(v)    for purposes of the calculations in clause (iii) above, (A) with respect to any
Incremental Commitments, assuming a borrowing of the maximum amount of Loans available thereunder, (B) to the extent the proceeds thereof are used to repay Indebtedness, pro forma effect shall be given to such repayment of Indebtedness
and (C) Indebtedness incurred under clause (iii)(A) above shall be available at all times and not subject to any ratio test, whether incurred simultaneously with amounts under clause (iii)(B) or otherwise. 

(e)    Required Terms. The terms, provisions and documentation of the Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Term
Commitments or the Incremental Revolving Loans and Incremental Revolving Loan Commitments, as the case may be, of any Class, except as otherwise set forth herein, shall be as agreed between the Borrower and the applicable Incremental Lenders;
provided that, to the extent the terms of such Incremental Commitments are not consistent with the Facilities (except to the extent permitted by this Section 2.14), the terms of such Incremental Commitments shall be
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. In any event: 
 (i)    the Incremental Term Loans
and, as applicable, the New Revolving Credit Commitments: 
 (A)    shall rank pari passu in right
of payment and of security with the Revolving Credit Loans and the Term Loans; 
 (B)    in the case of
Incremental Term Loans, shall not mature earlier than the Latest Maturity Date of the Initial Term Loans outstanding at the time of incurrence of such Incremental Term Loans; 

(C)    in the case of New Revolving Credit Commitments, shall not mature earlier than the Latest Maturity
Date of the Revolving Credit Commitments outstanding at the time of incurrence of such New Revolving Credit Commitments and shall not have amortization or scheduled mandatory commitment reductions (other than at maturity); 

  
 78 

 (D)    in the case of Incremental Term Loans, shall have a
Weighted Average Life to Maturity not shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of then-existing Initial Term Loans; 

(E)    in the case of Incremental Term Loans, subject to clause (B) and
(D) above, shall have amortization determined by the Borrower and the applicable Incremental Term Lenders; 

(F)    subject to clause (iii) below, shall have an Applicable Margin determined
by the Borrower and the applicable Incremental Term Lenders or Incremental Revolving Credit Lenders, as applicable; 

(G)    (x) in the case of Incremental Term Loans, shall be incurred in Dollars, and (y) in the case of
New Revolving Credit Commitments, shall be denominated in Dollars; and 
 (H)    may participate on a
pro rata basis or less than pro rata basis (but not on a greater than pro rata basis) in any mandatory prepayments of Initial Term Loans hereunder, as specified in the applicable Incremental Amendment; 

(I)    all other material terms of any Incremental Term Loans shall be substantially identical to, or
(taken as a whole) no more favorable (as reasonably determined by the Borrower) to the Lenders providing such Incremental Term Loans than, those applicable to the then-existing Term Loans (except for covenants or other provisions applicable only to
periods after the Latest Maturity Date of the then-existing Term Loans); 
 (ii)    all material terms
(other than with respect to margin, pricing, maturity or fees) of any Revolving Commitment Increase and Incremental Revolving Loans under such Revolving Commitment Increase shall be identical to the Revolving Credit Commitments and Revolving Credit
Loans or otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent; it being understood and agreed that covenants or other provisions applicable only to the periods after the Latest Maturity Date of any then-existing Revolving Credit Commitments
and Revolving Credit Loans shall be acceptable, subject, solely as to administrative matters to the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); 

(iii)    with respect to any Incremental Term Loan or New Revolving Credit Commitments, the All-In Yield applicable to such Incremental Term Loans or New Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, of each Class shall be determined by the Borrower and the applicable Incremental Term Lenders or
Incremental Revolving Credit Lenders, and shall be set forth in each applicable Incremental Amendment; provided, however, that if the All-In Yield in respect of any such Incremental Term Loans
incurred on or prior to the date that is 12 months after the Closing Date exceeds the All-In Yield in respect of any then-existing Term Loans by more than 0.50%, the Applicable Margin of such then-existing
Term Loans shall be adjusted such that the All-In Yield of such then-existing Term Loans equals the All-In Yield of such Indebtedness minus 0.50%; provided
that any amendments to the Applicable Margin in respect of any then-existing Term Loans that become effective subsequent to the Closing Date but prior to the time of such Indebtedness is incurred or borrowed shall also be included in such
calculations, effective upon the making of loans under such Indebtedness; provided, further, that if such Indebtedness includes a Eurodollar Rate floor greater than 1.00% per annum or an ABR floor greater than 2.00% per
annum, such differential between the Eurodollar Rate floor or the ABR 

  
 79 

 
floor, as the case may be, shall be equated to the applicable All-In Yield for purposes of determining whether an increase to the interest rate margin
under the Term Loans shall be required, but only to the extent an increase in the Eurodollar Rate floor or ABR floor in the Term Loans, as the case may be, would cause an increase in the interest rate then in effect thereunder, and in such case, the
Eurodollar Rate floor or ABR floor (but not the interest rate margin), applicable to the Term Loans shall be increased to the extent of such differential between the Eurodollar Rate floors or ABR floors, as the case may be; 

(iv)    [reserved]; and 

(v)    to the extent any Incremental Term Loans are made in the form of a Term Loan Increase or are
Incremental Term Loans with the same terms as the Term Loans made on the Closing Date, (i) the scheduled amortization payments under Section 2.07(a) required to be made after the making of such Incremental Term Loans shall be ratably
increased by the aggregate principal amount of such Incremental Term Loans and shall be further increased for all Lenders on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary to avoid any reduction in the amortization payments to which the Term
Lenders were entitled before such recalculation and (ii) in the event that, prior to the incurrence of any Incremental Term Loans made in the form of a Term Loan Increase or Incremental Term Loans with the same terms as the Term Loans made on
the Closing Date, the Term Loans made on the Closing Date, pursuant to any other Term Loan Increase or any other Incremental Term Loans made on the same terms as the Term Loans made on the Closing Date have scheduled amortization payments under
Section 2.07(a) that are less than 0.25% of the aggregate principal amount of such Term Loans when initially incurred, then the scheduled amortization payments on the Incremental Facility Closing Date of such Incremental Term Loans shall be
increased to be equal quarterly installments of principal equal to 0.25% of the aggregate principal amount of such Term Loans originally incurred. 

(f)    Incremental Amendment. Commitments in respect of Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Revolving Loan
Commitments shall become Commitments (or in the case of an Incremental Revolving Loan Commitment to be provided by an existing Revolving Credit Lender, an increase in such Lender’s applicable Revolving Credit Commitment), under this Agreement
pursuant to an amendment (an “Incremental Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by the Borrower, each Incremental Lender providing such Commitments and the Administrative Agent. The
Incremental Amendment may, without the consent of any other Loan Party, Agent or Lender, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent
and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.14, including amendments to Section 2.05(a)(ii) that are not adverse to the interests of the Lenders. The Borrower will use the proceeds of the Incremental
Term Loans and Incremental Revolving Loan Commitments for working capital and other general corporate purposes, including the financing of Permitted Acquisitions and other Investments permitted hereby and any other use not prohibited by the Loan
Documents, in each case as determined by the Borrower and the Lenders providing such Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Revolving Loan Commitments. No Lender shall be obligated to provide any Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Loan
Commitments, unless it so agrees. 
 (g)    Reallocation of Revolving Credit Exposure. Upon any Incremental
Facility Closing Date on which Revolving Commitment Increases are effected through an increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.14, (a) if the increase relates to the Revolving Credit
Facility, each of the Revolving Credit Lenders shall assign to each of the Incremental Revolving Credit Lenders, and each of the Incremental Revolving Credit Lenders shall purchase from each of the Revolving Credit Lenders, at the principal amount
thereof, such interests in the Incremental Revolving 

  
 80 

 
Loans outstanding on such Incremental Facility Closing Date as shall be necessary in order that, after giving effect to all such assignments and purchases, such Revolving Credit Loans will be
held by existing Revolving Credit Lenders and Incremental Revolving Credit Lenders ratably in accordance with their Revolving Credit Commitments after giving effect to the addition of such Revolving Commitment Increases to the Revolving Credit
Commitments, (b) each Revolving Commitment Increase shall be deemed for all purposes a Revolving Credit Commitment and each Loan made thereunder shall be deemed, for all purposes, a Revolving Credit Loan and (c) each Incremental Revolving
Credit Lender shall become a Lender with respect to the Revolving Commitment Increases and all matters relating thereto. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that the minimum borrowing, pro rata borrowing and pro rata
payment requirements contained elsewhere in this Agreement shall not apply to the transactions effected pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence. 

(h)    This Section 2.14 shall supersede any provisions in
Section 2.13 or 10.01 to the contrary. 
 Section 2.15.    Refinancing
Amendments. 
 (a)    On one or more occasions after the Closing Date, the Borrower may obtain, from any Lender or
any Additional Refinancing Lender, Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness in respect of all or any portion of the Term Loans and the Revolving Credit Loans (or unused Revolving Credit Commitments) then outstanding under this Agreement (which for
purposes of this Section 2.15(a) will be deemed to include any then outstanding Refinancing Term Loans or Incremental Term Loans), in the form of Refinancing Term Loans, Refinancing Term Commitments, Refinancing Revolving
Credit Commitments or Refinancing Revolving Credit Loans incurred under this Agreement pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment; provided that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.15 or otherwise,
(1) the borrowing and repayment (except for (A) payments of interest and fees at different rates on Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments (and related outstandings), (B) repayments required upon the maturity date of the Refinancing
Revolving Credit Commitments and (C) repayment made in connection with a permanent repayment and termination of commitments (subject to clause (3) below)) of Loans with respect to Refinancing Revolving Credit
Commitments after the date of obtaining any Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other Revolving Credit Commitments, (2) subject to the provisions of
Section 2.03(m) to the extent dealing with Letters of Credit that mature or expire after a maturity date when there exist Extended Revolving Credit Commitments with a longer maturity date, all Letters of Credit shall be
participated on a pro rata basis by all Lenders with Commitments in accordance with their percentage of the Revolving Credit Commitments (and except as provided in Section 2.03(m), without giving effect to changes
thereto on an earlier maturity date with respect to Letters of Credit theretofore incurred or issued), (3) the permanent repayment of Revolving Credit Loans with respect to, and termination of, Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments after the
date of obtaining any Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other Revolving Credit Commitments, except that the Borrower shall be permitted to permanently repay and terminate commitments of any
such Class on a better than a pro rata basis as compared to any other Class with a later maturity date than such Class and (4) assignments and participations of Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments and Refinancing
Revolving Credit Loans shall be governed by the same assignment and participation provisions applicable to Revolving Credit Commitments and Revolving Credit Loans. 

(b)    Each issuance of Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness under Section 2.15(a) shall be
in an aggregate principal amount that is (x) not less than $5,000,000 and (y) an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. 

  
 81 

 (c)    Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents may be amended pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment, without the consent of any other Lenders, to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to (i) reflect the existence and terms of the Credit Agreement Refinancing
Indebtedness incurred pursuant thereto and (ii) make such other changes to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents consistent with the provisions and intent of the third paragraph of Section 10.01 (without the
consent of the Required Lenders called for therein) and (iii) effect such other amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the
Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.15, and the Required Lenders hereby expressly authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into any such Refinancing Amendment. 

(d)    This Section 2.15 shall supersede any provisions in
Section 2.13 or 10.01 to the contrary. 
 Section 2.16.    Extension of Term
Loans; Extension of Revolving Credit Loans. 
 (a)    Extension of Term Loans. The Borrower may at any time
and from time to time request that all or a portion of the Term Loans of a given Class (each, an “Existing Term Loan Tranche”) be amended to extend the scheduled maturity date(s) with respect to all or a portion of any principal
amount of such Term Loans (any such Term Loans which have been so amended, “Extended Term Loans”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.16. In order to establish any Extended Term
Loans, the Borrower shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders under the applicable Existing Term Loan Tranche) (each, a “Term Loan Extension Request”) setting
forth the proposed terms of the Extended Term Loans to be established, which shall (x) be identical as offered to each Lender under such Existing Term Loan Tranche (including as to the proposed interest rates and fees payable) and offered
pro rata to each Lender under such Existing Term Loan Tranche and (y) be substantially identical to, or (taken as a whole) no more favorable to the Extending Term Lenders than those applicable to the Existing Term Loan Tranche subject to
such Term Loan Extension Request (except for covenants or other provisions applicable only to periods after the Latest Maturity Date that is in effect on the effective date of the Extension Amendment (immediately prior to the establishment of such
Extended Term Loans), including: (i) all or any of the scheduled amortization payments of principal of the Extended Term Loans may be delayed to later dates than the scheduled amortization payments of principal of the Term Loans of such
Existing Term Loan Tranche, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; provided, however, that at no time shall there be Classes of Term Loans hereunder (including Refinancing Term Loans and Extended Term Loans) that
have more than five different Maturity Dates; (ii) the All-In Yield with respect to the Extended Term Loans (whether in the form of interest rate margin, upfront fees, OID or otherwise) may be different
from the All-In Yield for the Term Loans of such Existing Term Loan Tranche, in each case, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; (iii) the Extension Amendment may provide for other
covenants and terms that apply solely to any period after the Latest Maturity Date that is in effect on the effective date of the Extension Amendment (immediately prior to the establishment of such Extended Term Loans); and (iv) Extended Term
Loans may have call protection as may be agreed by the Borrower and the Lenders thereof; provided, however, that (A) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time a Term Loan Extension Request is
delivered to Lenders, (B) in no event shall the final maturity date of any Extended Term Loans of a given Term Loan Extension Series at the time of establishment thereof be earlier than the then Latest Maturity Date of the applicable Existing
Term Loan Tranche, (C) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Extended Term Loans of a given Term Loan Extension Series at the time of establishment thereof shall be no shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the
applicable Existing Term Loan Tranche, (D) all documentation in respect of such Extension Amendment shall be consistent with the foregoing and (E) any Extended Term Loans may participate on a pro rata basis or less than a pro
rata basis (but not 

  
 82 

 
greater than a pro rata basis) in any mandatory prepayments hereunder, in each case as specified in the respective Term Loan Extension Request. Any Extended Term Loans amended pursuant to
any Term Loan Extension Request shall be designated a series (each, a “Term Loan Extension Series”) of Extended Term Loans for all purposes of this Agreement; provided that any Extended Term Loans amended from an Existing
Term Loan Tranche may, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment, be designated as an increase in any previously established Term Loan Extension Series with respect to such Existing Term Loan Tranche (in which case scheduled
amortization with respect thereto shall be proportionally increased). Each Term Loan Extension Series of Extended Term Loans incurred under this Section 2.16 shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than
$50,000,000. 
 (b)    Extension of Revolving Credit Commitments. The Borrower may at any time and from time to
time request that all or a portion of the Revolving Credit Commitments of a given Class (each, an “Existing Revolver Tranche”) be amended to extend the Maturity Date with respect to all or a portion of any principal amount of such
Revolving Credit Commitments (any such Revolving Credit Commitments which have been so amended, “Extended Revolving Credit Commitments”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.16. In
order to establish any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, the Borrower shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders under the applicable Existing Revolver Tranche) (each, a
“Revolver Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments to be established, which shall (x) be identical as offered to each Lender under such Existing Revolver Tranche
(including as to the proposed interest rates and fees payable) and offered pro rata to each Lender under such Existing Revolver Tranche and (y) the Extended Revolving Credit Commitment extended pursuant to a Revolver Extension Request,
and the related outstandings, shall be a Revolving Credit Commitment (or related outstandings, as the case may be) with such other terms substantially identical to, or taken as a whole, no more favorable to the Extending Revolving Credit Lender than
the original Revolving Credit Commitments (and related outstandings); provided that (i) the Maturity Date of the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments may be delayed to a later date than the Maturity Date of the Revolving Credit
Commitments of such Existing Revolver Tranche, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; provided, however, that at no time shall there be Classes of Revolving Credit Commitments hereunder (including Extended
Revolving Credit Commitments) that have more than five different Maturity Dates; (ii) the All-In Yield with respect to extensions of credit under the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments (whether in the
form of interest rate margin, upfront fees, OID or otherwise) may be different from the All-In Yield, pricing or prepayment terms, for extensions of credit under the Revolving Credit Commitments of such
Existing Revolver Tranche, in each case, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; (iii) the Extension Amendment may provide for other covenants (as determined by the Borrower and Lenders extending) and terms that apply
solely to any period after the Latest Maturity Date that is in effect on the effective date of the Extension Amendment (immediately prior to the establishment of such Extended Revolving Credit Commitments); and (iv) all borrowings under the
applicable Revolving Credit Commitments (i.e., the Existing Revolver Tranche and the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments of the applicable Revolver Extension Series) and repayments thereunder shall be made on a pro rata basis (except
for (I) payments of interest and fees at different rates on Extended Revolving Credit Commitments (and related outstandings), (II) repayments required upon the Maturity Date of the non-extending
Revolving Credit Commitments and (III) repayments made in connection with a permanent repayment and termination of non-extended Revolving Credit Commitments); provided, further, that
(A) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time a Revolver Extension Request is delivered to Lenders, (B) in no event shall the final maturity date of any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments of a
given Revolver Extension Series at the time of establishment thereof be earlier than the then Latest Maturity Date of any other Revolving Credit Commitments hereunder and (C) all documentation in respect of such Extension Amendment shall be
consistent with the foregoing. Any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments amended pursuant to any Revolver Extension Request 

  
 83 

 
shall be designated a series (each, a “Revolver Extension Series”) of Extended Revolving Credit Commitments for all purposes of this Agreement; provided that any Extended
Revolving Credit Commitments amended from an Existing Revolver Tranche may, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment, be designated as an increase in any previously established Revolver Extension Series with respect to such
Existing Revolver Tranche. Each Revolver Extension Series of Extended Revolving Credit Commitments incurred under this Section 2.16 shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $10,000,000. 

(c)    Extension Request. The Borrower shall provide the applicable Extension Request at least five Business Days
prior to the date on which Lenders under the Existing Term Loan Tranche or Existing Revolver Tranche, as applicable, are requested to respond (or such shorter period as agreed by the Administrative Agent), and shall agree to such procedures, if any,
as may be established by, or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, in each case acting reasonably to accomplish the purposes of this Section 2.16. Subject to Section 3.07, no
Lender shall have any obligation to agree to have any of its Term Loans of any Existing Term Loan Tranche amended into Extended Term Loans or any of its Revolving Credit Commitments amended into Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable,
pursuant to any Extension Request. Any Lender holding a Loan under an Existing Term Loan Tranche (each, an “Extending Term Lender”) wishing to have all or a portion of its Term Loans under the Existing Term Loan Tranche subject to
such Extension Request amended into Extended Term Loans and any Revolving Credit Lender (each, an “Extending Revolving Credit Lender”) wishing to have all or a portion of its Revolving Credit Commitments under the Existing Revolver
Tranche subject to such Extension Request amended into Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, shall notify the Administrative Agent (each, an “Extension Election”) on or prior to the date specified in such Extension
Request of the amount of its Term Loans under the Existing Term Loan Tranche or Revolving Credit Commitments under the Existing Revolver Tranche, as applicable, which it has elected to request be amended into Extended Term Loans or Extended
Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable (subject to any minimum denomination requirements imposed by the Administrative Agent). In the event that the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans under the Existing Term Loan Tranche or Revolving
Credit Commitments under the Existing Revolver Tranche, as applicable, in respect of which applicable Term Lenders or Revolving Credit Lenders, as the case may be, shall have accepted the relevant Extension Request exceeds the amount of Extended
Term Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, requested to be extended pursuant to the Extension Request, Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, subject to Extension Elections shall be amended to Extended
Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, on a pro rata basis (subject to rounding by the Administrative Agent, which shall be conclusive) based on the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments,
as applicable, included in each such Extension Election. 
 (d)    Extension Amendment. Extended Term Loans and
Extended Revolving Credit Commitments shall be established pursuant to an amendment (each, an “Extension Amendment”) to this Agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Extending Term Lender or Extending
Revolving Credit Lender, as applicable, providing an Extended Term Loan or Extended Revolving Credit Commitment, as applicable, thereunder, which shall be consistent with the provisions set forth in Section 2.16(a) or
2.16(b) above, respectively (but which shall not require the consent of any other Lender). The effectiveness of any Extension Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction (or waiver) on the date thereof of each of the conditions set forth
in Section 4.02 (other than delivery of a Committed Loan Notice) and, to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, receipt by the Administrative Agent of (i) legal opinions, board resolutions and
officers’ certificates consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date other than changes to such legal opinions resulting from a change in law, change in fact or change to counsel’s form of opinion reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent and (ii) reaffirmation agreements and/or such amendments to the Collateral Documents as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in order to ensure that the Extended Term Loans or

  
 84 

 
Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, are provided with the benefit of the applicable Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the
effectiveness of each Extension Amendment. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be amended pursuant to an Extension Amendment, without the consent of any other Lenders, to the extent (but only
to the extent) necessary to (i) reflect the existence and terms of the Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, incurred pursuant thereto, (ii) modify the scheduled repayments set forth in
Section 2.07 with respect to any Existing Term Loan Tranche subject to an Extension Election to reflect a reduction in the principal amount of the Term Loans thereunder in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount
of the Extended Term Loans amended pursuant to the applicable Extension (with such amount to be applied ratably to reduce scheduled repayments of such Term Loans required pursuant to Section 2.07), (iii) modify the
prepayments set forth in Section 2.05 to reflect the existence of the Extended Term Loans and the application of prepayments with respect thereto, (iv) make such other changes to this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents consistent with the provisions and intent of the third paragraph of Section 10.01 (without the consent of the Required Lenders called for therein) and (v) effect such other amendments to this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.16, and the Required Lenders hereby expressly
authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into any such Extension Amendment. 
 (e)    No conversion of Loans pursuant
to any Extension in accordance with this Section 2.16 shall constitute a voluntary or mandatory payment or prepayment for purposes of this Agreement. This Section 2.16 shall supersede any
provisions in Section 2.13 or 10.01 to the contrary. 

Section 2.17.    Defaulting Lenders. 

(a)    Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a
Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law: 

(i)    Waivers and Amendments. That Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any
amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in Section 10.01. 

(ii)    Reallocation of Payments. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received
by the Administrative Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VIII or otherwise), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the
Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by that Defaulting
Lender to the L/C Issuers hereunder; third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent or requested by the L/C Issuers, to be held as Cash Collateral for future funding obligations of that Defaulting Lender of any participation in any
Letter of Credit; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as
required by this Agreement, as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit
account and released in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders or the L/C Issuers as a result of any judgment of a court of
competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender or any L/C Issuer against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s 

  
 85 

 
breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a
result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to that Defaulting
Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or L/C Borrowings in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded
its appropriate share and (y) such Loans or L/C Borrowings were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and L/C
Borrowings owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or L/C Borrowings owed to, that Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or
other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.17(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and
redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. 
 (iii)    Certain
Fees. That Defaulting Lender (x) shall not be entitled to receive any commitment fee pursuant to Section 2.09(a) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be
required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender) and (y) shall be limited in its right to receive Letter of Credit fees as provided in Section 2.03(h).

 (iv)    Reallocation of Pro Rata Share to Reduce Fronting Exposure. During any period in which
there is a Defaulting Lender, for purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each Non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit pursuant to
Section 2.03, the “Pro Rata Share” of each Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Loans and L/C Obligations shall be computed without giving effect to the Commitment
of that Defaulting Lender; provided that (i) each such reallocation shall be given effect only if, at the date the applicable Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; and
(ii) the aggregate obligation of each Non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (1) the Commitment
of that Non-Defaulting Lender minus (2) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Loans of that Lender. 

(b)    Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuers agree in writing in
their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any
conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the
Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Revolving Credit Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Share (without
giving effect to Section 2.17(a)(iv)), whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf
of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties and subject to Section 10.21, no change hereunder from
Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. 

  
 86 

 ARTICLE III 

TAXES, INCREASED COSTS PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY 

Section 3.01.    Taxes. 

(a)    Except as provided in this Section 3.01, any and all payments made by or on account of any
obligation of the Borrower (the term Borrower under Article III being deemed to include any Subsidiary for whose account a Letter of Credit is issued) or the Subsidiary Guarantors under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and
without deduction or withholding for any Taxes. If the Borrower, any Subsidiary Guarantor, the Administrative Agent or other applicable withholding agent shall be required by any Laws to deduct or withhold any Tax from or in respect of any amount
payable under any Loan Document to any Agent or any Lender (as determined in the good-faith discretion of the applicable withholding agent), (i) if the Tax in question is an Indemnified Tax, the amount payable by the Borrower or any Subsidiary
Guarantor shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions or withholdings (including deductions or withholdings applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section 3.01), each of such
Agent and such Lender receives an amount equal to the amount it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made, (ii) the Borrower, any Subsidiary Guarantor, the Administrative Agent or other applicable withholding agent
shall make such deductions or withholdings, and (iii) the Borrower, any Subsidiary Guarantor, the Administrative Agent or other applicable withholding agent shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority
in accordance with applicable Laws. Within 30 days after the date of such payment of Taxes pursuant to this Section 3.01 (or, if receipts or evidence are not available within 30 days, as soon as possible thereafter), if the Borrower or any
Subsidiary Guarantor is the applicable withholding agent, it shall furnish to the Administrative Agent the original or a copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof, a copy of the return reporting such payment, or other evidence reasonably
acceptable to the Administrative Agent. 
 (b)    In addition, the Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant
Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes. 

(c)    The Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor shall jointly and severally indemnify each Agent and each Lender, within
10 days after demand therefor, for (i) the full amount of Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 3.01) payable or paid by such Agent
or such Lender or required to be deducted or withheld from a payment to such Agent or such Lender and (ii) any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or
asserted by the Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability prepared in good faith and delivered to the Borrower by such Agent or Lender (or by an Agent on behalf of such Lender) accompanied by a written
statement thereof setting forth in reasonable detail the basis and calculation of such amounts shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

(d)    Each Lender shall, at the time or times prescribed by applicable Law and at the time or times as are reasonably
requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, provide the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with any documentation prescribed by Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent certifying as to any entitlement of
such Lender to an exemption from, or reduction in, withholding Tax with respect to any payments to be made to such Lender under the Loan Documents or as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is
subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 3.01(d), a Lender shall not be required 

  
 87 

 
to deliver any form or certification pursuant to this Section 3.01(d) (other than the documentation set forth in Section 3.01(d)(i) through
(iii) and (v)) (x) that such Lender is not legally entitled to deliver or (y) if in such Lender’s reasonable judgment the completion, execution or submission of such form or certification would subject such Lender
to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. Without limiting the foregoing: 

(i)    Each Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or
before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) two executed originals of IRS
Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from federal backup withholding Tax. 

(ii)    Each Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or before the
date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) whichever of the following is applicable: 

(A)    in the case of a Foreign Lender entitled to the benefits of an income Tax treaty to which the United
States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, two executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form
W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such Tax treaty
and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, two executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form
W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other
income” article of such Tax treaty, 
 (B)    two executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI (or any successor forms), 
 (C)    in the
case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-1 to the effect that
such Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign
corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “United States Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) two executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or any successor forms), or 

(D)    to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner (for example, where the Lender is a
partnership), two executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY (or any successor forms) of the Lender, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a United States Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-2 or Exhibit G-3, Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable (provided that if
the Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Lender may provide a United States Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner). 

  
 88 

 (iii)    If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan
Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA, such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time
or times prescribed by Laws and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable Laws and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine whether such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA and, if
necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 3.01(d), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. 

(iv)    Any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower
and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request
of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from, or a reduction in, U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such
supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine withholding or deduction required to be made. 

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

(e)    If any Lender requests compensation under this Section 3.01, then such Lender will, if
requested by the Borrower, use its commercially reasonable efforts to designate another Lending Office if such a change would reduce any such additional amounts (or any similar amount that may thereafter accrue) and would not, in the reasonable
judgment of such Lender, result in any unreimbursed cost or expense, require any action that is inconsistent with legal or regulatory restrictions or be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs
and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. 
 (f)    If any party
determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund in respect of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified or additional amounts have been paid to it by a Loan Party pursuant to this
Section 3.01, it shall promptly remit such refund to such Loan Party (but only to the extent of indemnity payments or additional amounts paid by the Loan Party under this Section 3.01 with respect
to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including any Taxes imposed on the receipt of such refund) of the Lender or Agent, as the
case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund net of any Taxes payable by any Agent or Lender on such interest); provided that the Loan Parties, upon the
request of the Lender or Agent, as the case may be, agree promptly to return such refund (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to such party in the event such party is required to repay
such refund to the relevant Governmental Authority; provided, further, that in no event will the Lender or Agent be required to pay any amount to a Loan Party pursuant to this paragraph (f) the payment of which would
place the Lender or Agent in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Lender or Agent would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted,
withheld or otherwise 

  
 89 

 
imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This Section 3.01(f) shall not be construed to require any
Agent or any Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to Taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other person. 

(g)    Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for
(i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so),
(ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.07(e) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Taxes excluded from the definition of “Indemnified
Taxes” in clause (A)(i) through (A)(iv) of such definition attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are directly or indirectly payable or paid by the Administrative Agent as Taxes or otherwise in connection with any Loan
Document, and all expenses, including legal expenses and other out-of-pocket expenses, arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were
correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender
hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due
to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (g). 
 (h)    Each party’s obligations under this
Section 3.01 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or
discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document. 
 (i)    For purposes of this
Section 3.01, the term “Lender” includes any L/C Issuer, and the term “applicable Laws” includes FATCA. 

Section 3.02.    Illegality. If any Lender determines in good faith that any Law or guideline has made it
unlawful or impermissible, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful or impermissible under any such guideline, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Eurodollar Rate Loans, or to
determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate, in each case after the Closing Date, then, on written notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or
continue Eurodollar Rate Loans or to convert ABR Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon
receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall promptly following written demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all applicable Eurodollar Rate Loans of such Lender to ABR Loans, either on
the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully and in accordance with guidelines continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans to such day, or promptly, if such Lender may not lawfully or in accordance with guidelines
continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted and all amounts due, if any, in connection with such prepayment or conversion
under Section 3.05. Each Lender agrees to designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be materially
disadvantageous to such Lender. 
 Section 3.03.    Inability to Determine Rates. If the Administrative
Agent determines, or is notified by the Required Lenders, after the Closing Date that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the applicable Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period with

  
 90 

 
respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan, or that the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect
the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, or that Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank eurodollar, or other applicable, market for the applicable amount and the Interest Period of such Eurodollar Rate Loan, the
Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower in writing and each Lender. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended and (y) in the event a determination described
in the preceding sentence with respect to the Eurodollar Rate component of the ABR, the utilization of the Eurodollar Rate component in determining the ABR shall be suspended, in each case until the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the
Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of such Eurodollar Rate Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such
request, if applicable, into a request for a Borrowing of ABR Loans in the amount specified therein. 

Section 3.04.    Increased Cost and Reduced Return; Capital Adequacy; Eurodollar Rate Loan Reserves. 

(a)    If any Lender (which, for purposes of this Section 3.04, shall include the L/C Issuers)
reasonably determines that as a result of the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any Law or guideline, in each case after the Closing Date, or such Lender’s compliance therewith, there shall be any increase in the cost
to such Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any Eurodollar Rate Loans or (as the case may be) issuing or participating in Letters of Credit, or a reduction in the amount received or receivable by such Lender in connection
with any of the foregoing (excluding for purposes of this Section 3.04(a) any such increased costs or reduction in amount resulting from (i) (A) Indemnified Taxes indemnified pursuant to
Section 3.01, (B) any Taxes excluded from the definition of “Indemnified Taxes” in clauses (A)(ii) through (iv) of such definition or, and (C) “Connection Income Taxes,” and
(ii) reserve requirements contemplated by Section 3.04(c)) and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining the Eurodollar Rate Loan (or of maintaining its
obligations to make any Loan), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, then from time to time within 15 Business Days after written demand by such Lender setting forth in reasonable detail (which detail shall not be
required to include any information to the extent disclosure thereof is prohibited by Law) such increased costs (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent given in accordance with Section 3.06), the Borrower
shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, for all purposes under this Agreement, (x) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform
and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (y) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International settlements, the Basel
Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a change in Law or guideline, regardless of
the date enacted, adopted or issued; provided that increased costs because of a change in a Law or guideline resulting from the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and Basel III may only be requested by a Lender imposing
such increased costs on similarly situated borrowers under syndicated credit facilities comparable to those provided hereunder. 

(b)    If any Lender determines that the introduction of any Law or guideline regarding capital adequacy or liquidity
requirements or any change therein or in the interpretation thereof, in each case after the Closing Date, or compliance by such Lender (or its Lending Office) therewith, has the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or
any corporation controlling such Lender as a consequence of such Lender’s obligations hereunder (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity and such Lender’s desired return on capital), then from
time 

  
 91 

 
to time promptly following written demand of such Lender setting forth in reasonable detail (which detail shall not be required to include any information to the extent disclosure thereof is
prohibited by Law) the charge and the calculation of such reduced rate of return (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent given in accordance with Section 3.06), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such
additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction within 10 Business Days after receipt of such demand. 

(c)    The Borrower shall pay to each Lender, (i) as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves,
capital or liquidity with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits, additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each applicable Eurocurrency Rate Loan of the Borrower equal to the actual
costs of such reserves, capital or liquidity allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error), and (ii) as long as such Lender shall be
required to comply with any reserve ratio, capital or liquidity requirement or analogous requirement of any other central banking or financial regulatory authority imposed in respect of the maintenance of the Commitments or the funding of any
Eurocurrency Rate Loans of the Borrower, such additional costs (expressed as a percentage per annum and rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest five decimal places) equal to the actual costs allocated to such Commitment or Loan by such Lender
(as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) which in each case shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan; provided the Borrower shall have
received at least 10 Business Days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional interest or cost from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice at least 10 Business Days prior to the relevant Interest Payment
Date, such additional interest or cost shall be due and payable 10 Business Days from receipt of such notice. 

(d)    Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this
Section 3.04 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this
Section 3.04 to the extent that such Lender or Agent fails to make a demand for such compensation more than nine months after becoming aware of its right to such compensation. 

(e)    If any Lender requests compensation under this Section 3.04, then such Lender will, if
requested by the Borrower, use commercially reasonable efforts to designate another Lending Office for any Loan or Letter of Credit affected by such event; provided that such efforts are made on terms that, in the reasonable judgment of such
Lender, cause such Lender and its Lending Office(s) to suffer no material economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage; provided, further, that nothing in this Section 3.04(d) shall affect or postpone any of the
Obligations of the Borrower or the rights of such Lender pursuant to Section 3.04(a), (b), (c) or (d). 

Section 3.05.    Funding Losses. Promptly following written demand of any Lender (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent) from time to time, the Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense actually incurred by it as a result of: 

(a)    any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Eurodollar Rate Loan of the Borrower on a
day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan; or 
 (b)    any failure by the
Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to pay, prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Eurodollar Rate Loan of the Borrower on the date or in the amount notified by the Borrower; 

  
 92 

 including any loss or expense (excluding loss of anticipated profits) arising from the liquidation or
reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. 

For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to the Lenders under this Section 3.05, each Lender
shall be deemed to have funded each Eurocurrency Rate Loan made by it at the Eurocurrency Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the offshore interbank market for the applicable currency for a comparable amount and for a
comparable period, whether or not such Eurocurrency Rate Loan was in fact so funded. 
 Section 3.06.    Matters
Applicable to All Requests for Compensation. 
 (a)    Any Agent or any Lender claiming compensation under this
Article III shall deliver a certificate to the Borrower setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder which shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, such
Agent or such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. 
 (b)    With respect to any
Lender’s claim for compensation for any amounts under Section 3.02, 3.03 or 3.04, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate such Lender for the interest and penalties with respect to such amounts
if such Lender notifies the Borrower of the event that gives rise to such claim more than 180 days after such event; provided that if the circumstance giving rise to such claim is retroactive, then such
180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. If any Lender requests compensation by the Borrower under Section 3.04, the
Borrower may, by notice to such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), suspend the obligation of such Lender to make or continue from one Interest Period to another applicable Eurodollar Rate Loan, or, if applicable, to convert ABR Loans
into Eurodollar Rate Loans, until the event or condition giving rise to such request ceases to be in effect (in which case the provisions of Section 3.06(c) shall be applicable); provided that such suspension shall
not affect the right of such Lender to receive the compensation so requested. 
 (c)    If the obligation of any Lender
to make or continue any Eurodollar Rate Loan, or to convert ABR Loans into Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended pursuant to Section 3.06(b) hereof, such Lender’s applicable Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be
automatically converted into ABR Loans (or, if such conversion is not possible, repaid) on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for such Eurodollar Rate Loans (or, in the case of an immediate conversion required by
Section 3.02, on such earlier date as required by Law or guidelines) and, unless and until such Lender gives notice as provided below that the circumstances specified in Section 3.02, 3.03
or 3.04 hereof that gave rise to such conversion no longer exist: 
 (i)    to the extent that
such Lender’s Eurodollar Rate Loans have been so converted, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise be applied to such Lender’s applicable Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be applied instead to its ABR Loans; and 

(ii)    all Loans that would otherwise be made or continued from one Interest Period to another by such
Lender as Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be made or continued instead as ABR Loans (if possible), and all ABR Loans of such Lender that would otherwise be converted into Eurodollar Rate Loans shall remain as ABR Loans. 

(d)    If any Lender gives notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) that the circumstances
specified in Section 3.02, 3.03 or 3.04 hereof that gave rise to the conversion of any of such Lender’s Eurodollar Rate Loans pursuant to this Section 3.06 no longer exist

  
 93 

 
(which such Lender agrees to do promptly upon such circumstances ceasing to exist) at a time when Eurodollar Rate Loans made by other Lenders under the applicable Facility are outstanding, if
applicable, such Lender’s ABR Loans shall be automatically converted, on the first day(s) of the next succeeding Interest Period(s) for such outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans, to the extent necessary so that, after giving effect thereto, all
Loans held by the Lenders holding Eurodollar Rate Loans under such Facility and by such Lender are held pro rata (as to principal amounts, interest rate basis, and Interest Periods) in accordance with their respective Commitments for the
applicable Facility. 
 Section 3.07.    Replacement of Lenders under Certain Circumstances. 

(a)    If at any time (i) the Borrower becomes obligated to pay additional amounts or indemnity payments described in
Section 3.01 or 3.04 as a result of any condition described in such Sections or any Lender ceases to make any Eurodollar Rate Loans as a result of any condition described in Section 3.02 or
3.04 or requires the Borrower to pay additional amounts as a result thereof, (ii) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, or (iii) any Lender becomes a Non-Consenting Lender, then the Borrower
may, on five Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and such Lender, replace such Lender by causing such Lender to (and such Lender shall be obligated to) assign pursuant to Section 10.07(b)
(so long as the assignment fee is paid in such instance) all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (which shall only apply in respect of any applicable Facility (and not all Facilities hereunder) only in the case of
clause (i) or, in the case of a Non-Consenting Lender with respect to a vote of directly and adversely affected Lenders or all Lenders of a Class (“Affected Class”),
clause (iii)); provided that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to the Borrower to find a replacement Lender or other such Person; provided, further, that
(A) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.04 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.01, such assignment will result in a
reduction in such compensation or payments and (B) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable Eligible Assignees shall have agreed to, and
shall be sufficient (together with all other consenting Lenders) to cause the adoption of, the applicable departure, waiver or amendment of the Loan Documents. 

(b)    Any Lender being replaced pursuant to Section 3.07(a) above shall (i) execute and
deliver an Assignment and Assumption with respect to such Lender’s applicable Commitment and outstanding Loans and participations in L/C Obligations in respect thereof, and (ii) deliver any Notes evidencing such Loans to the Borrower or
the Administrative Agent. Pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption, (A) the assignee Lender shall acquire all or a portion, as the case may be, of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and outstanding Loans and participations in L/C
Obligations, (B) all obligations of the Borrower owing to the assigning Lender relating to the Loans, Commitments and participations so assigned shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender to such assigning Lender concurrently with such
Assignment and Assumption and (C) upon such payment and, if so requested by the assignee Lender, delivery to the assignee Lender of the appropriate Note or Notes executed by the Borrower, the assignee Lender shall become a Lender hereunder and
the assigning Lender shall cease to constitute a Lender hereunder with respect to such assigned Loans, Commitments and participations, except with respect to indemnification provisions under this Agreement, which shall survive as to such assigning
Lender. In connection with any such replacement, if any such Lender does not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly executed Assignment and Assumption reflecting such replacement within five Business Days of the date on which the
assignee Lender executes and delivers such Assignment and Assumption to such Lender, then such Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Assumption without any action on the part of the Lender. 

(c)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, any Lender that acts as an L/C Issuer may not be replaced
hereunder at any time that it has any Letter of Credit outstanding 

  
 94 

 
hereunder unless arrangements reasonably satisfactory to such L/C Issuer (including the furnishing of a back-up standby letter of credit in form and
substance, and issued by an issuer, reasonably satisfactory to such L/C Issuer or Cash Collateral) have been made in respect of such outstanding Letters of Credit and the Lender that acts as the Administrative Agent may not be replaced hereunder
except in accordance with the terms of Section 9.06. 
 (d)    In the event that (i) the
Borrower or the Administrative Agent has requested that the Lenders consent to a departure or waiver of any provisions of the Loan Documents or agree to any amendment thereto, (ii) the consent, waiver or amendment in question requires the
agreement of each affected Lender or each Lender of a Class in accordance with the terms of Section 10.01 or an Affected Class or all Lenders holding Term Loans subject to a Permitted Repricing Amendment and
(iii) the Required Lenders (and, in the case of a consent, waiver or amendment (1) involving all of an Affected Class, at least 50.1% of such Affected Class or (2) involving a Permitted Repricing Amendment, all other Lenders
holding a tranche of Term Loans subject to such repricing that will continue as repriced or modified Term Loans) have agreed to such consent, waiver or amendment, then any Lender who does not agree to such consent, waiver or amendment shall be
deemed a “Non-Consenting Lender.” 

Section 3.08.    Survival. All of the Borrower’s obligations under this
Article III shall survive termination of the Aggregate Commitments and repayment of all other Obligations hereunder. 

ARTICLE IV

(g)    On the Closing Date, before and after giving effect to the incurrence of the Initial Term Loans, no Default shall

 Without limiting the generality of
the provisions of Section 9.03(b), for purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in this Section 4.01, each Lender that has signed this Agreement shall be deemed to have

 97 

 (iii)    The Administrative Agent and, if applicable, the

Each Request for Credit Extension after the Closing Date (other than a Committed Loan Notice requesting only a conversion of Loans to the
other Type, or a continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans) submitted by the Borrower shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty that the conditions specified in Sections 4.02(i), (ii) and (iv) have
been satisfied on and as of the date of the applicable Credit Extension. 
 Notwithstanding anything in this
Section 4.02 to the contrary, to the extent that the proceeds of Incremental Term Loans are to be used to finance a Limited Condition Transaction permitted hereunder, the only conditions precedent to the funding of such
Incremental Term Loans shall be the conditions precedent set forth in the related Incremental Amendment. 
 ARTICLE V 

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 

The Borrower and each of the Subsidiary Guarantors party hereto represent and warrant to the Agents and the Lenders at the time of each Credit
Extension (except as otherwise expressly provided herein) that: 
 Section 5.01.    Existence, Qualification and
Power; Compliance with Laws. Each Loan Party and each Restricted Subsidiary (a) is a Person duly organized or formed, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization to the
extent such concept exists in such jurisdiction, (b) has all requisite organizational power and authority to (i) own or lease its assets and carry on its business as currently conducted and (ii) in the case of the Loan Parties,

properties or the conduct of its business requires such qualification, (d) is in compliance with all Laws, orders, writs and injunctions and (e) has all requisite governmental licenses, authorizations, consents and approvals to operate its
business as currently conducted; except in each case, referred to in clause (a) (other than with respect to the Borrower), (b)(i) (other than with respect to the Borrower), (c), (d) or (e), to
the extent that failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

Section 5.02.    Authorization; No Contravention. The execution, delivery and performance by each Loan Party
of each Loan Document to which such Person is a party, and the consummation of the Transactions, (a) are within such Loan Party’s corporate or other powers, (b) have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other
organizational action, and (c) do not (i) contravene the terms of any of such Person’s Organization Documents, (ii) conflict with or result in any breach or contravention of, or the creation of any Lien under (other than as

OFAC or such other relevant Governmental Authority.

constitute a breach of the representations, warranties or covenants hereunder). 
 Section 6.10.    Inspection
Rights. Permit representatives and independent contractors of the Administrative Agent and each Lender to visit and inspect any of its properties, to examine its corporate, financial and operating records, and make copies thereof or abstracts

such reasonable times during normal business hours and as often as may be reasonably desired, upon reasonable advance notice to the Borrower; provided that only the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders may exercise rights of the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders under this Section 6.10 and the Administrative Agent shall not exercise such rights more often than one time during any calendar year and such time shall be at the Borrower’s

the expense of the Borrower at any time during normal business hours and upon reasonable advance notice. The Administrative Agent shall give the Borrower the opportunity to participate in any discussions with the Borrower’s independent public
accountants. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.10, no Consolidated Party will be required to disclose, permit the inspection, examination or making copies or abstracts of, or discussion of, any
document, information or other matter that (a) constitutes non-financial trade secrets or non-financial proprietary information, (b) in respect of which access
or inspection by, or disclosure to, the Administrative Agent or any Lender (or their respective representatives or contractors) is prohibited by Law or any binding agreement or (c) is subject to attorney-client or similar privilege or
constitutes attorney work product.

extent required by the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement, and to otherwise comply with the requirements of the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement; 

(ii)    if reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, deliver to the Administrative Agent a signed

consent of a Person other than the Borrower or one of its Subsidiaries if such consent cannot be reasonably obtained through commercially reasonable and diligent effort; and 

(iv)    if reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, within 75 days after such request (or such
longer period as the Administrative Agent may agree in writing in its discretion), deliver to the Administrative Agent other items necessary from time to time to satisfy the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement with respect to perfection and

 111 

 (b)    Following the acquisition by any Loan Party of Material Real Property

(b)    Execute and deliver the documents and complete the tasks set forth on Schedule 6.13(b), in each case within

of any Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary shall constitute (i) the incurrence at the time of designation of any Investment, Indebtedness and Liens of such Subsidiary existing at such time and (ii) a Return on any Investment
by the Borrower in such Unrestricted Subsidiary pursuant to the preceding sentence in an amount equal to the fair market value at the date of such designation of the Borrower’s Investment in such Subsidiary.

Remaining Term Loan Proceeds may be used by the Borrower during the period following the Redemption Date to and including December 31, 2017, to repurchase common stock of the Borrower pursuant to Section 7.06(c); provided,
however, that from the Closing Date until the Redemption Date, any Remaining Term Loan Proceeds shall remain deposited in the Redemption Account. Following the Redemption Date, any Remaining Term Loan Proceeds may be transferred to any other
deposit account of the Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries, subject to compliance with the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement. Any Remaining Term Loan Proceeds not used to repurchase common stock pursuant to Section 7.06(c) may be used

any payments to any governmental officer or employee, political party, official of a political party, candidate for political office or anyone else acting in an official capacity in order to obtain, retain or direct business, or obtain any improper
advantage, in violation of the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended.

Schedule 7.08 or any amendment thereto to the extent such an amendment is not adverse to the Lenders in any material respect. 

  
 127

(i)    (x) exist on the Closing Date and (to the extent not otherwise permitted by this
Section 7.09) are listed on Schedule 7.09 or (y) to the extent Contractual Obligations permitted by clause (x) are set forth in an agreement evidencing Indebtedness,
are set forth in any agreement evidencing any permitted modification, replacement, renewal, extension or refinancing of such Indebtedness so long as such modification, replacement, renewal, extension or refinancing does not expand the scope of such
limitations; 
 (ii)    are binding on a Restricted Subsidiary at the time such Restricted Subsidiary
first becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower, so long as such Contractual Obligations were not entered into in contemplation of such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower and do not extend to any Restricted Subsidiaries
other than such Restricted Subsidiary and its subsidiaries; provided, further, that this clause (ii) shall not apply to Contractual Obligations that are binding on a Person that becomes a Restricted Subsidiary

Required Lenders. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document, the Borrower may make regularly scheduled payments of
interest and fees on any Junior Financing, and may make any payments required by the terms of such Indebtedness in order to avoid the application of Section 163(e)(5) of the Code to such Indebtedness.

any Debtor Relief Laws, the obligation of each Lender to make Loans and any obligation of the L/C Issuers to make L/C Credit Extensions shall automatically terminate, the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans and all interest and other
amounts as aforesaid shall automatically become due and payable and the obligation of the Borrower to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations as aforesaid shall automatically become effective, in each case without further act of the Administrative
Agent or any Lender. 
 Section 8.03.    Application of Funds. After the exercise of remedies provided for
in Section 8.02 (or after the Loans have automatically become immediately due and payable and the L/C Obligations have automatically been required to be Cash Collateralized as set forth in the proviso to

First, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (other
than principal and interest, but including Attorney Costs payable under Section 10.04 and amounts payable under Article III) payable to the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent in their
capacities as such hereunder; 
 Second, to the payment in full of Unfunded Participations (the amounts so applied to

Treasury Services Agreements or Secured Hedge Agreements, ratably among the Secured Parties in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Fifth held by them; 

  
 133

aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit pursuant to clause Fifth above shall be applied to satisfy drawings under such Letters of Credit as they occur. If any amount remains on deposit as Cash Collateral after all Letters of Credit have

Customary Intercreditor Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amounts received from any Guarantor shall be applied to any Excluded Swap Obligation of such Guarantor. 

Section 8.04.    Borrower’s Right to Cure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in Section 8.01 or Section 8.02: 
 (a)    For the purpose
of determining whether an Event of Default under Section 7.11 has occurred, the Borrower may on one or more occasions designate any portion of the net cash proceeds from a sale or issuance of Qualified Equity Interests of
the Borrower or any cash contribution to the common capital of the Borrower (the “Cure Amount”) as an increase to Consolidated EBITDA for the applicable fiscal quarter; provided that (A) such amounts to be designated
(i) are actually received by the Borrower after the end of such fiscal quarter and on or prior to the fifteenth Business Day after the date on which financial statements are required to be delivered with respect to such applicable fiscal
quarter (the “Cure Expiration Date”) and (ii) do not exceed the aggregate amount necessary to cure any Event of Default under Section 7.11 as of such date and (B) the Borrower shall have provided
notice (the “Notice of Intent to Cure”) to the Administrative Agent that such amounts are designated as a Cure Amount (it being understood that to the extent such notice is provided in advance of delivery of a Compliance Certificate
for the applicable period, the amount of such net cash proceeds that is designated as the Cure Amount may be lower than specified in such notice to the extent that the amount necessary to cure any Event of Default under
Section 7.11 is less than the full amount of such originally designated amount). The Cure Amount shall be added to Consolidated EBITDA for the applicable fiscal quarter and included in any Test Period that includes such
fiscal quarter. 
 (b)    The parties hereby acknowledge that this Section 8.04 may not be
relied on for purposes of calculating any financial ratios other than for determining actual compliance with Section 7.11 and shall not result in any adjustment to any amounts (including the amount of clause
(c) or (d) of the Available Amount, Indebtedness (other than as set forth in Section 8.04(d)(ii)), Total Assets, Consolidated First Lien Net Debt, Consolidated Secured Net Debt or Consolidated Total Net Debt or any other
calculation of net leverage or Indebtedness hereunder (whether directly by prepayment of debt or indirectly by way of netting) and shall not be included for purposes of determining pricing, mandatory prepayments or the availability or amount
permitted pursuant to any covenant under Article VII) with respect to the quarter with respect to which such Cure Amount was made (or the period after such quarter but before delivery of the Notice of Intent to Cure) other
than the amount of the Consolidated EBITDA referred to in Section 8.04(a) above. 

  
 134 

 (c)    In furtherance of Section 8.04(a) above,
(i) upon actual receipt and designation of the Cure Amount by either Borrower, the covenant under Section 7.11 shall be deemed retroactively cured with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply with
the covenant under such Section 7.11 and any Event of Default or potential Event of Default under Section 7.11 shall be deemed not to have occurred for purposes of the Loan Documents, (ii) no
Lender or L/C Issuer shall be required to make any extension of credit hereunder during the fifteen (15) Business Day period referred to above unless the Borrower has actually received the proceeds of the Cure Amount, (iii) the Borrower
shall not be permitted to make any Restricted Payments during the fifteen (15) Business Day period referred to above unless the Borrower has actually received the proceeds of the Cure Amount and no Cure Amount shall be made with the proceeds of
any Restricted Payments made pursuant to Section 7.06(f) and (g) and (iv) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender may exercise any rights or remedies under Section 8.02 (or under any other
Loan Document) on the basis of any actual or purported Event of Default under Section 7.11 following receipt of a Notice of Intent to Cure until and unless the Cure Expiration Date has occurred without the Cure Amount
having been received. 
 (d)    (i) In each period of four consecutive fiscal quarters, there shall be at least two
fiscal quarters in which no cure right set forth in this Section 8.04 is exercised and (ii) there shall be no pro forma reduction in Indebtedness with the Cure Amount for determining compliance with
Section 7.11 for the fiscal quarter with respect to which such Cure Amount was made. 

(e)    There can be no more than four fiscal quarters in which the cure rights set forth in this
Section 8.04 are exercised during the term of the Facilities.

hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes each Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to such Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are
reasonably incidental or related thereto. The provisions of this Article IX (other than Sections 9.01, 9.06 and 9.09 through and including 9.12) are solely for the benefit of
the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers, and no Loan Party has rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement
with reference to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter
of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. 

(b)    The Administrative Agent shall also act as the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents, and each of
the Lenders (including in its capacities as a potential Bank) and the L/C Issuers hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the agent of such Lender and L/C Issuer for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing
any and all Liens on Collateral granted 

  
 135 

 
by any of the Loan Parties to secure any of the Secured Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection, the Administrative Agent,
as “collateral agent,” and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact
appointed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.05 for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Collateral Documents, or for exercising any rights
and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Administrative Agent, shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article IX and Article X (including the second paragraph of
Section 10.05), as though such co-agents, sub-agents and
attorneys-in-fact were the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, the Lenders hereby expressly authorize the Administrative Agent to (i) execute any and all documents (including releases and Customary Intercreditor Agreements) with respect to the Collateral and the Guaranty (including any
amendment, supplement, modification or joinder with respect thereto) and the rights of the Secured Parties with respect thereto, as contemplated by and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Collateral Documents and acknowledge
and agree that any such action by any Agent shall bind the Lenders and (ii) negotiate, enforce or settle any claim, action or proceeding affecting the Lenders in their capacity as such, at the direction of the Required Lenders, which
negotiation, enforcement or settlement will be binding upon each Lender. 
 Section 9.02.    Rights as a
Lender. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the term
“Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its
Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were
not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders. 

Section 9.03.    Exculpatory Provisions. The Agents shall not have any duties or obligations except those
expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the
Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Collateral Agent’s Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by any Loan Party in connection therewith, nor shall the Administrative Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any
failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent: 

(a)    shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing; 
 (b)    shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any
discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or
percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may
(i) expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law or (ii) be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or
termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; 
 (c)    shall not, except as
expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the
Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity; 

  
 136 

 (d)    shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it
(i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as
provided in Sections 10.01 and 8.02) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and nonappealable judgment. The
Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, a Lender or L/C Issuer; and 

(e)    shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or
representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the
performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any
other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created by the Collateral Documents, (v) the value or the sufficiency of any Collateral, or (vi) the
satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent. 

Section 9.04.    Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon,
and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed
by it in good faith to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it in good faith to have
been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance, extension, renewal or increase of a Letter of Credit, that by its
terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or L/C Issuer unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary
from such Lender or L/C Issuer prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance, extension or increase of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants
and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. 

Section 9.05.    Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and
exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article IX shall apply
to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with
the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents
except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non-appealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of
such sub-agents. Each party to this Agreement acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agent may from time to time use one or more outside 

  
 137 

 
service providers for the tracking of all UCC financing statements (and/or other Collateral-related filings and registrations from time to time) required to be filed or recorded pursuant to the
Loan Documents and the notification to the Administrative Agent, of, among other things, the upcoming lapse or expiration thereof, and that each of such service providers will be deemed to be acting at the request and on behalf of the Borrower and
the other Loan Parties. No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by any such service provider. 

Section 9.06.    Resignation of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of
its resignation to the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrower at all times other than upon the occurrence and during the
continuation of an Event of Default under Section 8.01(a) or 8.01(f) (which consent of the Borrower shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an
office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring
Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above (including consent of
the Borrower ); provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such
notice and (a) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of
the Lenders or the L/C Issuers under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (b) all payments,
communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and the L/C Issuers directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative
Agent as provided for above in this Section 9.06. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers,
privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged
therefrom as provided above in this Section 9.06). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and
such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article IX and Sections 10.04 and 10.05 shall
continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative 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 Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent. 
 Section 9.07.    Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender and L/C Issuer acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their
Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and L/C Issuer also acknowledges that it will, independently and without
reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action
under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. 

  
 138 

 Section 9.08.    No Other Duties, Etc. Anything herein to the
contrary notwithstanding, none of the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or Arrangers listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its
capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, a Lender or L/C Issuer hereunder. 

Section 9.09.    Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding
under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or L/C Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by
declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise: 

(a)    to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the
Loans, L/C Obligations and all other Secured Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and the Administrative Agent (including
any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and the
Administrative Agent under Sections 2.03(h), 2.03(i), 2.09, 10.04 and 10.05) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and 

(b)    to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the
same; 
 and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby
authorized by each Lender and L/C Issuer to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, if the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and the L/C Issuers, to pay to the Administrative Agent
any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.09,
10.04 and 10.05. 
 Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to
or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or L/C Issuer any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or L/C Issuer to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect
of the claim of any Lender or L/C Issuer or in any such proceeding. 
 Section 9.10.    Collateral and Guaranty
Matters. Each Lender hereby agrees, and each holder of any Note by the acceptance thereof will be deemed to agree, that, except as otherwise set forth herein, any action taken by the Required Lenders in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement or the Collateral Documents, and the exercise by the Required Lenders of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders.
The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent are each hereby authorized on behalf of all of the Lenders, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender, from time to time prior to the occurrence and continuance of an
Event of Default, to take any action with respect to any Collateral or Collateral Documents which may be necessary to create, perfect and maintain perfected security interests in and liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to the Collateral
Documents. Each of the Lenders irrevocably authorizes each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, at its option, and in its sole discretion: 

(a)    to enter into and sign for and on behalf of the Lenders as Secured Parties the Collateral Documents for the benefit
of the Lenders and the other Secured Parties; 

  
 139 

 (b)    to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by such Agent
under any Loan Document (i) upon termination of the Aggregate Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent obligations and Letters of Credit which have been Cash Collateralized or otherwise backstopped) and the
expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit (other than Letters of Credit which have been Cash Collateralized or as to which other arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the L/C Issuers
shall have been made), (ii) at the time the property subject to such Lien is Disposed or to be Disposed as part of or in connection with any Disposition permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document, (iii) subject to
Section 10.01, if the release of such Lien is approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders or (iv) if the property subject to such Lien is owned by a Guarantor, upon release of such Guarantor
from its obligations under its Guaranty pursuant to Section 9.10(d);  

(c)    to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by such Agent under any Loan Document to another Lien
(i) permitted to exist on such property and (ii) to be senior to the Liens of the Secured Parties under this Agreement; and 

(d)    to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty if such Person ceases to be a Restricted
Subsidiary or becomes an Excluded Subsidiary as a result of a transaction or designation permitted hereunder; provided that no such release shall occur if such Guarantor continues to be a guarantor in respect of any Credit Agreement
Refinancing Indebtedness, any Junior Financing or any other Indebtedness having an aggregate principal amount in excess of the Threshold Amount. 

Upon request by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing such Agent’s
authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty pursuant to this Section 9.10. In each case as specified in this
Section 9.10, such Agent will (and each Lender irrevocably authorizes each such Agent to), at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party may reasonably
request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Collateral Documents or to subordinate its interest in such item, or to evidence the release of such Guarantor from its
obligations under the Guaranty, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section 9.10. 

Anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent
and each Secured Party hereby agree that (i) no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce the Guarantee, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder and
under any of the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, for the benefit of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof and all powers, rights and remedies
under the Collateral Documents (other than any Guarantee in favor of the Administrative Agent, which may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent) may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in
accordance with the terms thereof, (ii) in the event of a foreclosure or similar enforcement action by the Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition (including, without limitation,
pursuant to Section 363(k), Section 1129(b)(2)(a)(ii) or otherwise of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code), the Collateral Agent or any Lender (except, in each case, with respect to a “credit bid” pursuant to Section 363(k), Section 1129(b)(2)(a)(ii)
or otherwise of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code) may, in its own capacity and not as an agent for the other Lenders or Secured Parties, be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such 

  
 140 

 
Collateral at any such sale or other disposition and (iii) the Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of the Secured Parties (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their
respective individual capacities) shall be entitled, upon instructions from the Required Lenders, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such sale or
disposition, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral payable by the Collateral Agent at such sale or other disposition. 

Section 9.11.    Secured Treasury Services Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements. Except as otherwise
expressly set forth herein or in any Guaranty or any Collateral Document, no Bank that obtains the benefits of Section 8.03, any Guaranty or any Collateral by virtue of the provisions hereof or of any Guaranty or any
Collateral Document shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document or otherwise in respect of the Collateral (including the release or impairment of any
Collateral) other than in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only to the extent expressly provided in the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article IX to the contrary, the Administrative
Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Obligations arising under Treasury Services Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements unless the Administrative Agent has
received written notice of such Secured Obligations, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, from the applicable Bank. 

The Banks hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into any Customary Intercreditor Agreement, any other intercreditor agreement
permitted under this Agreement, and any amendment, modification, supplement or joinder with respect thereto, and any such Customary Intercreditor Agreement or other intercreditor agreement is binding upon the Banks. 

ARTICLE X 

MISCELLANEOUS 

Section 10.01.    Amendments, Etc. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, no amendment or waiver of
any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and no consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, shall be effective unless in writing signed by the Required Lenders (or by the Administrative Agent with the consent of the
Required Lenders) and the Borrower or the applicable Loan Party, as the case may be, and each such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided that no such
amendment, waiver or consent shall: 
 (a)    extend or increase the Commitment or any Loan of any Lender without the
written consent of each Lender holding such Commitment or Loan (it being understood that a waiver of any condition precedent set forth in Section 4.01 or 4.02, or the waiver of any Default, Event of Default,
mandatory prepayment or mandatory reduction of any Commitments or Loans shall not constitute such an extension or increase); 

(b)    postpone any date scheduled for any payment of principal (including final maturity), interest or fees under
Section 2.07, 2.08 or 2.09, respectively, without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby (it being understood that the waiver of (or amendment to the terms of) any mandatory
prepayment of the Loans or any obligation of the Borrower to pay interest at the Default Rate, any Default or Event of Default, mandatory prepayment or mandatory reduction of any Commitments shall not constitute such a postponement of any date
scheduled for the payment of principal or interest and it further being understood that any change to the definition of “Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio” or the component definitions thereof shall not constitute a postponement
of such scheduled payment); 

  
 141 

 (c)    reduce or forgive the principal of, or the rate of interest specified
herein on, any Loan or L/C Borrowing, or (subject to clause (iv) of the proviso to this Section 10.01 that appears immediately following clause (j) below) any prepayment penalty or
premium, fees, reimbursement obligations or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document (or extend the timing of payments of such prepayment penalty or premium, fees or other amounts) without the written consent of each Lender
directly and adversely affected thereby (it being understood that (i) the waiver of (or amendment to the terms of) any obligation of the Borrower to pay interest at the Default Rate, any mandatory prepayment of the Loans or mandatory reduction
of any Commitments or any Default or Event of Default shall not constitute such a reduction or forgiveness and (ii) any change to the definition of “Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio” or the component definitions thereof
shall not constitute a reduction or forgiveness in any rate of interest); 
 (d)    change any provision of
Section 2.12(a), 2.13, 8.03, or 10.07(a)(z) or the definition of “Pro Rata Share” in any manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments or other amounts required thereby,
without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby; provided that modifications to Section 2.12(a), 2.13 or 8.03 or the definition of “Pro Rata Share” in
connection with (x) any Incremental Amendment or (y) any Extension Amendment, in each case, shall only require approval (to the extent any such approval is otherwise required) of the Required Lenders; 

(e)    change any provision of (i) this Section 10.01 or (ii) the definition
“Required Lenders” or any other provision specifying the number of Lenders or portion of the Loans or Commitments required to take any action under the Loan Documents to reduce the percentage set forth therein, without the written consent
of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby (it being understood that, with the consent of the Required Lenders (if such consent is otherwise required) or the Administrative Agent (if the consent of the Required Lenders is not otherwise
required), additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement may be included in the determination of the Required Lenders on substantially the same basis as the Term Commitments or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable); 

(f)    permit assignment of rights and obligations of the Borrower, without the written consent of each Lender; 

(g)    other than in connection with a transaction permitted under Section 7.04 or 7.05,
release all or substantially all of the Collateral in any transaction or series of related transactions, or, other than in connection with Liens permitted under Section 7.01 to have a priority superior to that of the Liens granted hereunder or
under any other Loan Document, subordinate the Collateral Agent’s Liens on such Collateral, in each case, without the written consent of each Lender; including, for the avoidance of doubt, any amendment to Section 7.01
that has such effect; 
 (h)    other than in connection with a transaction permitted under
Section 7.04 or 7.05, release all or substantially all of the value of the guarantees provided by the Guarantors, without the written consent of each Lender; 

(i)    affect the rights or duties of Lenders holding Loans or Commitments of a particular Class (but not the Lenders
holding Loans or Commitments of any other Class), without the written consent of the requisite percentage in interest of the affected Class of Lenders that would be required to consent thereto if such Class of Lenders was the only Class;
or 

  
 142 

 (j)    consent to the subordination of any of the Secured Obligations of the Loan Parties
under the Loan Documents to any other Indebtedness, without the written consent of each Lender including for avoidance of doubt any amendment to Section 7.01 that has the effect of subordinating any Secured Obligations to
such other Indebtedness; 
 provided, further, that (i) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by each L/C
Issuer in addition to the Lenders required above, adversely affect the rights or duties of an L/C Issuer under this Agreement or any Letter of Credit Application relating to any Letter of Credit issued or to be issued by it; (ii) [reserved];
(iii) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the applicable Agent in addition to the Lenders required above, adversely affect the rights or duties of, or any fees or other amounts payable to, such Agent under
this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (iv) Section 10.07(h) may not be amended, waived or otherwise modified without the consent of each Granting Lender all or any part of whose Loans are being funded by an SPC at
the time of such amendment, waiver or other modification; (v) [reserved]; and (vi)(x) no Lender consent is required to effect an Incremental Amendment, Refinancing Amendment or Extension Amendment (except as expressly provided in
Section 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16, as applicable) or to effect any amendment expressly contemplated by Section 7.12 and (y) in connection with an amendment in which any Class of
Term Loans is refinanced with a replacement Class of term loans bearing (or is modified in such a manner such that the resulting term loans bear) a lower All-In Yield and other customary amendments
related thereto (a “Permitted Repricing Amendment”), only the consent of the Lenders holding Term Loans subject to such permitted repricing transaction that will continue as a Lender in respect of the repriced tranche of Term Loans
or modified Term Loans shall be required for such Permitted Repricing Amendment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any
amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Commitment of any
Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender, (y) the date scheduled for any payment of principal (including final maturity) of the loans of any Defaulting Lender may not be postponed without the consent
of such Lender, and (z) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each directly and adversely affected Lender that by its terms materially and adversely affects any Defaulting Lender to a greater extent than
other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender consent is required
for the Administrative Agent to enter into or to effect any amendment, modification or supplement to any Customary Intercreditor Agreement or other intercreditor agreement or arrangement permitted under this Agreement or in any document pertaining
to any Indebtedness permitted hereby that is permitted to be secured by the Collateral, including any Incremental Commitment, any Permitted Equal Priority Refinancing Debt or any Permitted Junior Priority Refinancing Debt, for the purpose of adding
the holders of such Indebtedness (or their Senior Representative) as a party thereto and otherwise causing such Indebtedness to be subject thereto, in each case as contemplated by the terms of such Customary Intercreditor Agreement or other
intercreditor agreement or arrangement (it being understood that any such amendment or supplement may make such other changes to the applicable intercreditor agreement as, in the good faith determination of the Administrative Agent, are required to
effectuate the foregoing; provided that such other changes are not adverse, in any material respect (taken as a whole), to the interests of the Lenders); provided, further, that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise
affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower (a) to add one or 

  
 143 

 
more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share
ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Term Loans, Revolving Credit Loans and L/C Obligations and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and (b) to include appropriately the Lenders holding
such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders. 
 In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be
amended with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders providing the Replacement Term Loans (as defined below) to permit the refinancing of all or a portion of the outstanding Term Loans of any Class
(“Refinanced Term Loans”) with one or more tranches of replacement term loans (“Replacement Term Loans”) hereunder; provided that (a) the aggregate principal amount of such Replacement Term Loans shall
not exceed the aggregate principal amount of such Refinanced Term Loans (plus accrued interest, fees, expenses and premium), (b) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of Replacement Term Loans shall not be shorter than the Weighted Average Life
to Maturity of such Refinanced Term Loans, at the time of such refinancing, (c) such Replacement Term Loans must satisfy the requirements of Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness and (d) all other terms applicable to such
Replacement Term Loans shall be as agreed between the Borrower and the Lenders providing such Replacement Term Loans. 
 Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Section 10.01, guarantees, collateral security documents and related documents executed by the Loan Parties or the Subsidiaries in connection with this Agreement may be in a form
reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and may be, together with this Agreement, amended and waived with the consent of the Administrative Agent at the request of the Borrower without the need to obtain the consent of any other Lender if
such amendment or waiver is delivered in order (i) to comply with local Law or advice of local counsel or (ii) to cause such guarantee, collateral security document or other document to be consistent with this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any Lender may assign all or a portion of its Term Loans
in connection with a primary syndication of such Term Loans relating to any refinancing, extension, loan modification or similar transaction permitted by the terms of this Agreement, pursuant to cashless settlement mechanisms approved by the
Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the assignor Lender and the assignee of such Lender. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, only the consent
of the Borrower and the Required Revolving Lenders shall be necessary to (i) amend, modify or waive any condition precedent set forth in Section 4.02 with respect to the making of Revolving Credit Loans or the issuance
of Letters of Credit, (ii) amend, modify or waive the provisions of Section 7.11 or Section 8.04 (or any definition solely as it relates to such Section) or to waive any Event of Default
arising from a failure to comply with Section 7.11 or (iii) except for any amendment, waiver or modification that would require the consent of each Revolving Credit Lender adversely affected thereby pursuant to the
proviso to Section 10.01, amend, modify or waive any provision of this Agreement that solely affects the Revolving Credit Lenders in respect of any Revolving Credit Facility, including the final scheduled maturity,
interest, fees, prepayment penalties and voting. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
Section 10.01, if at any time after the Closing Date, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall have jointly identified an obvious error or any error or omission of a technical nature, in each case, in any provision
of the Loan Documents, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend such provision and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Loan Document so long as the
same is not objected to in writing by the Required Lenders within five Business Days following receipt of notice thereof. 

  
 144 

 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 10.01, no
Loan Party will, directly or indirectly, pay any remuneration or other thing of value, whether by way of additional interest, fee or otherwise, to any Lender (in its capacity as a Lender hereunder) as consideration for agreement by such Lender with
any consent, amendment, waiver or other modification of any Loan Documents, unless such remuneration or other thing of value is offered to all Lenders and is paid to all such Lenders that so vote or agree in the time frame set forth in the
solicitation documents relating to such modification. 
 Section 10.02.    Notices and Other Communications.

 (a)    Notices; Effectiveness; Electronic Communications. 

(i)    Notices Generally. Except in the case of notices and other communications expressly permitted
to be given by telephone (and except as provided in Section 10.02(a)(ii)), all notices and other communications provided for herein shall be in writing and shall be delivered by hand or overnight courier service, mailed by
certified or registered mail or sent by facsimile as follows, and all notices and other communications expressly permitted hereunder to be given by telephone shall be made to the applicable telephone number, as follows:

(B)    if to any other Lender, to the address, facsimile number, electronic mail address or telephone
number specified in its Administrative Questionnaire. 
 Notices and other communications sent by hand or overnight courier
service, or mailed by certified or registered mail, shall be deemed to have been given when received; notices and other communications sent by facsimile shall be deemed to have been given when sent (except that, if not given during normal business
hours for the recipient, shall be deemed to have been given at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient). Notices and other communications delivered through electronic communications to the extent provided in
Section 10.02(a)(ii) shall be effective as provided in such Section 10.02(a)(ii). 

(ii)    Electronic Communications. Notices and other communications to the Lenders and the L/C
Issuers hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent; provided
that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender or L/C Issuer pursuant to Article II if such Lender or L/C Issuer, as applicable, has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices
under such Article by electronic communication. The Administrative Agent or the Borrower may, in their discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to them hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it;
provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. 
 Unless the Administrative Agent
otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by
the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other 

  
 145 

 
written acknowledgement); provided that if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to
have been sent at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient, and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its
e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor. 

(b)    The Platform. THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” THE AGENT PARTIES (AS
DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED
OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY AGENT PARTY IN
CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to the Loan Parties, any Lender, any L/C Issuer
or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the Borrower’s, any Restricted Subsidiary’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of the
Borrower Materials through the Internet, except to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and non-appealable
judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent Party; provided, however, that in no event shall any Person have any liability to any other Person hereunder for indirect, special, incidental,
consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages); provided, further, that nothing in this sentence shall limit any Loan Party’s indemnification obligations set forth herein. 

(c)    Change of Address, Etc. Each of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuers may change its
address, e-mail address, facsimile or telephone number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. Each other Lender may change its address, e-mail address facsimile or telephone number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuers. In addition, each Lender agrees to notify the
Administrative Agent from time to time to ensure that the Administrative Agent has on record (i) an effective address, contact name, telephone number, facsimile number and e-mail address to which notices
and other communications may be sent and (ii) accurate wire instructions for such Lender. Furthermore, each Public Lender agrees to cause at least one individual at or on behalf of such Public Lender to at all times have selected the
“Private Side Information” or similar designation on the content declaration screen of the Platform in order to enable such Public Lender or its delegate, in accordance with such Public Lender’s compliance procedures and applicable
Law, including United States Federal and state securities Laws, to make reference to the Borrower Materials that are not made available through the “Public Side Information” portion of the Platform and that may contain Material Non-Public Information. 
 (d)    Reliance by Administrative Agent, L/C Issuer and
Lenders. The Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including telephonic Committed Loan Notices) purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower even if (i) such notices
were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The
Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each L/C Issuer, each Lender and the Related Parties of each of them from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by
or on behalf of the 

  
 146 

 
Borrower in accordance with Section 10.05 hereof. All telephonic notices to and other telephonic communications with the Administrative Agent may be recorded by the
Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording. 
 Section 10.03.    No
Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure by any Lender, any L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall
operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights,
remedies, powers and privileges herein provided, and provided under each other Loan Document, are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by Law. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Loan Parties or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the
Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 8.02 for the benefit of all the Lenders and the L/C Issuers; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the Administrative Agent from
exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (b) any L/C Issuer from exercising the rights and remedies that inure
to its benefit (solely in its capacity as L/C Issuer, as the case may be) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (c) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 10.09 (subject to the
terms of Section 2.13) or (d) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Loan Party under any Debtor Relief Law;
provided, further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (i) the Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative
Agent pursuant to Section 8.02 and (ii) in addition to the matters set forth in clause (b), (c) and (d) of the preceding proviso and subject to
Section 2.13, any Lender may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required Lenders. 

Section 10.04.    Attorney Costs and Expenses. The Borrower agrees, (a) if the Closing Date occurs, to
pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the
preparation, negotiation, syndication, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and any amendment, waiver, consent or other modification of the provisions hereof and thereof (whether or not the
transactions contemplated thereby are consummated), and the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including all Attorney Costs, which shall be limited to Cravath, Swaine & Moore LLP and, if
reasonably necessary, one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction (which may include a single special counsel acting in multiple jurisdictions) material to the interests of the Lenders taken as a whole and (b) from and after the Closing
Date, to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in
connection with the enforcement or protection of any rights or remedies under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (including all such costs and expenses incurred during any legal proceeding, including any proceeding under any Debtor Relief
Law, and including all respective Attorney Costs, which shall be limited to Attorney Costs of one counsel to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders taken as a whole and, if reasonably necessary, one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction
material to the interests of the Lenders taken as a whole and, solely in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, one additional counsel in each relevant jurisdiction to each group of similarly situated affected parties). The
agreements in this Section 10.04 shall survive the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and repayment of all other Obligations. All amounts due under this 

  
 147 

 
Section 10.04 shall be paid within 30 days following receipt by the Borrower of an invoice relating thereto setting forth such expenses in reasonable detail. If any Loan
Party fails to pay when due any costs, expenses or other amounts payable by it hereunder or under any Loan Document, such amount may be paid on behalf of such Loan Party by the Administrative Agent in its discretion following five Business
Days’ prior written notice to the Borrower. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 10.04 shall not apply to Taxes, except any Taxes that represent costs and expenses arising from any
non-Tax claim. 
 Section 10.05.    Indemnification by the
Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless each Agent, Agent-Related Person, Lender and Arranger and their respective controlled Affiliates and controlling Persons, and their respective officers, directors, employees,
partners, agents, advisors and other representatives of each of the foregoing and their respective successors (collectively the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all actual liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties,
claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements (including Attorney Costs but limited in the case of legal fees and expenses to the reasonable and documented or invoiced out-of-pocket fees, disbursements and other charges of one counsel to all Indemnitees taken as a whole and, if necessary, one local counsel for all Indemnitees taken as a whole in each relevant jurisdiction
that is material to the interests of the Lenders, and, solely in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, where the Indemnitee affected by such conflict informs the Borrower of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel,
one additional counsel in each relevant jurisdiction to each group of similarly situated affected Indemnitees) and any other counsel obtained with the Borrower’s consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), joint or
several, of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out of or in connection with (a) the execution, delivery, enforcement,
performance or administration of any Loan Document or any other agreement, letter or instrument delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, (b) any Commitment,
Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom including any refusal by an L/C Issuer to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly
comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (c) any actual or alleged presence or Release of Hazardous Materials at, on, under or from any property or facility currently owned, leased or operated by the Loan Parties or any Subsidiary, or
any Environmental Liability relating to any Loan Party or Subsidiary, or (d) any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory (including any investigation
of, preparation for, or defense of any pending claim, investigation, litigation or proceeding) (a “Proceeding”) and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto or whether or not such Proceeding is brought by the Borrower
or any other person and, in each case, whether or not caused by or arising, in whole or in part, out of the negligence of the Indemnitee; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available (i) to the extent that
such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulted from (x) the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or of any of its
controlled Affiliates or their respective directors, officers, employees, partners, advisors or other representatives, as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction,
(y) a material breach of any obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by such Indemnitee or any of its controlled Affiliates, as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court
of competent jurisdiction or (z) any dispute solely among Indemnitees other than any claims against an Indemnitee in its capacity or in fulfilling its role as an administrative agent or arranger or any similar role under any Facility and other
than any claims arising out of any act or omission of the Borrower or any of their Affiliates or (ii) with respect to any settlement entered into by an Indemnitee without the Borrower’s written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed). No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of any information or other materials obtained through IntraLinks or other similar information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement,
in each case, except to the extent any such 

  
 148 

 
damages are found in a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful
misconduct of, or a material breach of any obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by, such Indemnitee or any of its controlled Affiliates, nor shall any Indemnitee, Loan Party or any Subsidiary have any liability for any
special, punitive, indirect or consequential damages relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or arising out of its activities in connection herewith or therewith (whether before or after the Closing Date); it being agreed that this
sentence shall not limit the indemnification obligations of the Borrower or any Subsidiary (including, in the case of any Loan Party, in respect of any such damages incurred or paid by an Indemnitee to a third party and for any out-of-pocket expenses). In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 10.05 applies, such
indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Loan Party, any Subsidiary of any Loan Party, its directors, equity holders or creditors or an Indemnitee or any other Person, whether or not
any Indemnitee is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not any of the transactions contemplated hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents are consummated. By accepting the benefits hereof, each Indemnitee agrees to refund and return any
and all amounts paid by the Borrower to such Indemnitee to the extent items in clauses (x) through (z) above occur. All amounts due under this Section 10.05 shall be paid within 10 days
after written demand therefor (together with backup documentation supporting such reimbursement request). The agreements in this Section 10.05 shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the replacement of
any Lender, the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 10.05 shall not apply to Taxes, except any Taxes
that represent liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, prepayments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements arising from any non-Tax claims. 

To the extent that the Borrower for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under this
Section 10.05 or Section 10.04 to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the L/C Issuers or any Related
Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent (or any such sub-agent), the L/C Issuers or such Related Party, as the case may be, such
Lender’s Pro Rata Share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or
related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or the L/C Issuers in their capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of
the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or any L/C Issuer in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under this paragraph are subject to the provisions
of Section 2.12(e). 
 Section 10.06.    Payments Set Aside. To the extent that
any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower is made to the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff
or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or such Lender in its discretion) to be
repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be
revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender and L/C Issuer severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share
(without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from
time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. 

  
 149 

 Section 10.07.    Successors and Assigns. 

(a)    The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their
respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder or any of the other Loan Documents without the prior written consent of the Administrative
Agent and each Lender (except as permitted by Section 7.04), and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Assignee pursuant to an assignment made in
accordance with the provisions of Section 10.07(b) (such an assignee, an “Eligible Assignee”), (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of
Section 10.07(e), (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of Section 10.07(g) or (iv) to an SPC in accordance with the provisions of
Section 10.07(h), and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender may assign or transfer by
participation any of its rights or obligations hereunder to (w) a Disqualified Lender, (x) any Person that is a Defaulting Lender, (y) a natural Person or (z) the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries. Nothing in this Agreement,
expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in Section 10.07(e) and, to
the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible or have
any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Disqualified Lenders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not
(x) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender or Participant or prospective Lender or Participant is a Disqualified Lender or (y) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or
participation of Loans, or disclosure of confidential information, to any Disqualified Lender. 

(b)    (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in Section 10.07(a) above and
Section 10.07(b)(ii) below, any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees (each, an “Assignee”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion
of its Commitment and the Loans (including for purposes of this Section 10.07(b), participations in L/C Obligations) at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed) of: 
 (A)    the Borrower; provided that no consent of the Borrower shall
be required for (i) an assignment of all or a portion of the Term Loans to a Lender or to an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund thereof, (ii) an assignment of all or a portion of any Revolving Credit Commitments or Revolving Credit
Exposure to a Revolving Credit Lender, an Affiliate of a Revolving Credit Lender or any Approved Fund thereof, (iii) an assignment after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under
Section 8.01(a) or Section 8.01(f) or (iv) an assignment in connection with the primary syndication of the Facilities previously identified to and consented to (such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) by the Borrower; provided, further, that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall have objected thereto by written notice to the Administrative
Agent within 10 Business Days after having received notice thereof; 
 (B)    the Administrative Agent;
provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment (i) of all or any portion of a Term Loan to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, (ii) of all or any portion of any Revolving
Credit Commitments or Revolving Credit Exposure to a Revolving Credit Lender, an Affiliate of a Revolving Credit Lender or any Approved Fund thereof, or (iii) from an Agent to its Affiliates; and 

  
 150 

 (C)    each L/C Issuer at the time of such assignment;
provided that no consent of the L/C Issuers shall be required for any assignment not related to Revolving Credit Commitments or Revolving Credit Exposure. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary set forth herein, to the extent any Lender is required to assign any portion of its Commitments,
Loans and other rights, duties and obligations hereunder in order to comply with applicable Laws, such assignment may be made by such Lender without the consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or any other party hereto so
long as such Lender complies with the requirements of Section 10.07(b)(ii). 

(ii)    Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions: 

(A)    except in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s
Commitment or Loans of any Class, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the
Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000 (in the case of each Revolving Credit Loan) and $1,000,000 (in the case of a Term Loan) unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consents; provided that such
amounts shall be aggregated in respect of each Lender and its Affiliates or Approved Funds, if any; 

(B)    the parties to each assignment shall (1) execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an
Assignment and Assumption via an electronic settlement system acceptable to the Administrative Agent or (2) if previously agreed with the Administrative Agent, manually execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and
Assumption, together, in each case, with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (which fee may be waived or reduced in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent); 

(C)    the Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an
Administrative Questionnaire; and 
 (D)    the Assignee shall execute and deliver to the Administrative
Agent and the Borrower the documentation described in Section 3.01(d) applicable to it. 
 This
Section 10.07(b) shall not prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights and obligations among separate Facilities on a non-pro rata basis among such Facilities. 

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

  
 151 

 
accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit in accordance with its Pro Rata Share.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of
such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs. 

(c)    Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to
Section 10.07(d), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, (1) the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by
such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and (2) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its
obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be
entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04, 3.05, 10.04 and 10.05 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment). Upon request, and the
surrender by the assigning Lender of its Note, the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this
Section 10.07(c) shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 10.07(e). 

(d)    The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary
agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of
(and related interest amounts on) the Loans, L/C Obligations (specifying the Unreimbursed Amounts), L/C Borrowings and the amounts due under Section 2.03 owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time
(the “Register”). Upon its receipt of, and consent to, a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, an Administrative Questionnaire completed in respect of the assignee (unless the
assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in Section 10.07(b)(ii)(B) above, if applicable, and the written consent of the Administrative Agent and, if required, the Borrower and each L/C
Issuer to such assignment and any applicable Tax forms, the Administrative Agent shall (i) accept such Assignment and Assumption and (ii) promptly record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective
unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this Section 10.07(d). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agents and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is
recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, any Agent and any Lender, at any
reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. This Section 10.07(d) and Section 2.11 shall be construed so that all Loans are at all times maintained in “registered
form” within the meaning of Section 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code and any related Treasury Regulations (or any other relevant or successor provisions of the Code or of such Treasury Regulations). 

(e)    Any Lender may at any time, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person, a Disqualified Lender,
a Defaulting Lender, any Consolidated Party or any Affiliate of any Consolidated Party) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of
its Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Lender’s participations in L/C Obligations) owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall
remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Agents and the other 

  
 152 

 
Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to
which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or
the other Loan Documents; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in
clauses (a) through (j) of the first proviso to Section 10.01 that requires the affirmative vote of such Lender. Subject to Section 10.07(f) and a
Participant’s compliance with the requirements and the limitations of Section 3.01(d) (it being understood that any forms, information or other documentation required under such Sections shall be delivered to the participating Lender),
the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 (subject to the requirements and limitations of such Sections) to the same extent as if it were a
Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.07(c). To the extent permitted by applicable Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.09
as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.13 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation or that is a Granting Lender, as the case may be,
shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and SPC and the principal amounts of (and related
interest amounts on) each Participant’s and SPC’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or
any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any
Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form within the meaning of Section 5f.103-1(c)
of the U.S. Treasury Regulations or any other relevant or successor provisions of the Code or of such Treasury Regulations). The Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is
recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation or portion of the Loan (if funded by an SPC), as applicable, for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the
Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. 

(f)    A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.01,
3.04 or 3.05 than the participating Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless such entitlement to a greater payment results from a change in any Law after the
Participant acquired the applicable Participation. 
 (g)    Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent, at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure
obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or any central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or
assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 
 (h)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any
Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (an “SPC”) the option
to provide all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to fund any Loan, (ii) if an
SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to make all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof and 

  
 153 

 
(iii) such SPC and the applicable Loan or any applicable part thereof, shall be appropriately reflected in the Participant Register. Each party hereto hereby agrees that (i) an SPC
shall be entitled to the benefit of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 (subject to the requirements and the limitations of such Section), but neither the grant to any SPC nor the exercise by any SPC of such option
shall increase the costs or expenses or otherwise increase or change the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement except, in the case of Section 3.01, to the extent that the grant to the SPC was made with the prior
written consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; for the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower shall have reasonable basis for withholding consent if an exercise by SPC immediately after the grant would result in
materially increased indemnification obligation to the Borrower at such time), (ii) no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement for which a Lender would be liable, and (iii) the Granting
Lender shall for all purposes, including the approval of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of any Loan Document, remain the lender of record hereunder. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment
of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without prior consent of the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent and with the payment of a processing fee of $3,500, assign all or any portion of its right to receive payment with respect to any Loan to the Granting Lender and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its funding of Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety or Guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC. 

(i)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, without the consent of the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent, (1) any Lender may in accordance with applicable Law create a security interest in all or any portion of the Loans owing to it and the Note, if any, held by it and (2) any Lender that is a Fund may create a security
interest in all or any portion of the Loans owing to it and the Note, if any, held by it to the trustee for holders of obligations owed, or securities issued, by such Fund as security for such obligations or securities; provided that unless
and until such trustee actually becomes a Lender in compliance with the other provisions of this Section 10.07, (i) no such pledge shall release the pledging Lender from any of its obligations under the Loan Documents
and (ii) such trustee shall not be entitled to exercise any of the rights of a Lender under the Loan Documents even though such trustee may have acquired ownership rights with respect to the pledged interest through foreclosure or otherwise.

 (j)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any L/C Issuer may, upon 30 days’ notice to
the Borrower and the Lenders, resign as an L/C Issuer; provided that on or prior to the expiration of such 30-day period with respect to such resignation, the relevant L/C Issuer shall have identified a
successor L/C Issuer reasonably acceptable to the Borrower willing to accept its appointment as successor L/C Issuer. In the event of any such resignation of an L/C Issuer, the Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders willing to
accept such appointment a successor L/C Issuer hereunder; provided that no failure by the Borrower to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of the relevant L/C Issuer, except as expressly provided above. If an L/C Issuer
resigns as an L/C Issuer, it shall retain all the rights and obligations of an L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as an L/C Issuer and all L/C Obligations with respect
thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make ABR Loans or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 2.03(c)). 

Section 10.08.    Confidentiality. Each of the Agents and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality
of the Information, except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and its and its Affiliates’ managers, administrators, directors, officers, employees, trustees, partners, investors, funding sources, investment advisers
and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors on a “need to know basis” (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be 

  
 154 

 
informed of the confidential nature of such Information and agree to keep such Information confidential); (b) to the extent required or requested by any Governmental Authority or
self-regulatory authority having or asserting jurisdiction over such Person (including any Governmental Authority regulating any Lender or its Affiliates); provided that the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, agrees that it
will notify the Borrower as soon as practicable in the event of any such disclosure by such Person (other than at the request of a regulatory or self-regulatory authority) unless such notification is prohibited by law, rule or regulation;
(c) to the extent required by applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process; provided that the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, agrees that it will notify the Borrower as soon as
practicable in the event of any such disclosure by such Person (other than at the request of a regulatory or self-regulatory authority) unless such notification is prohibited by law, rule or regulation; (d) to any other party to this Agreement;
(e) subject to an agreement containing provisions at least as restrictive as those of this Section 10.08 (or as may otherwise be reasonably acceptable to the Borrower), to (i) any direct or indirect contractual
counterparty to a Swap Contract, or any Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective party (or its
Related Parties) to any swap, derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to the Borrower and its obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder (other than any Person whom the Borrower has affirmatively
denied to provide consent to assignment in accordance with Section 10.07(b)(i)(A)); (f) with the prior written consent of the Borrower; (g) to the extent such Information becomes publicly available other than as a
result of a breach of this Section 10.08 or other obligation of confidentiality owed to the Borrower or its Affiliates or becomes available to the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, any Arranger, any Lender, any L/C
Issuer or any of their respective Affiliates on a non-confidential basis from a source other than a Loan Party or their respective Related Parties (so long as such source is not known (after due inquiry) to
the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, such Arranger, such Lender, such L/C Issuer or any of their respective Affiliates to be bound by confidentiality obligations to any Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates); (h) to any
rating agency when required by it (it being understood that, prior to any such disclosure, such rating agency shall undertake to preserve the confidentiality of any Information relating to Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries received by it from such
Lender) or to the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar organization; (i) to the extent such information is independently developed by the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, any Arranger, any Lender, any L/C Issuer or any of their respective
Affiliates; (j) subject to an agreement containing provisions at least as restrictive as those of this Section 10.08 (or as may otherwise be reasonably acceptable to the Borrower), to any pledgee referred to in
Section 10.07(g); or (k) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of its rights
hereunder or thereunder. In addition, the Agents and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and publicly available information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry, and
service providers to the Agents and the Lenders in connection with the administration, settlement and management of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Commitments and the Credit Extensions. For the purposes of this
Section 10.08, “Information” means all information received from the Loan Parties relating to any Loan Party, its Affiliates or its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees, trustees, investment
advisers or agents, other than any such information that is publicly available to any Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender prior to disclosure by any Loan Party other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.08 or any
other confidentiality obligation owed to any Loan Party or their Affiliates. 
 Section 10.09.    Setoff. In
addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by Law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender and its Affiliates (and the Administrative Agent, in respect of any unpaid fees, costs and
expenses payable hereunder) is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to the Borrower, any such notice being waived by the Borrower (on its own behalf and on behalf of each Loan Party and each of its Subsidiaries)

  
 155 

 
to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) (other than escrow, payroll, petty cash,
trust and Tax accounts) at any time held by, and other Indebtedness at any time owing by, such Lender and its Affiliates or the Administrative Agent to or for the credit or the account of the respective Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries against
any and all Obligations owing to such Lender and its Affiliates or the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document, now or hereafter existing, irrespective of whether or not such Agent or such Lender or Affiliate shall have made
demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set
off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.17 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its
other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the
Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such set off and application made by such Lender; provided
that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of the Administrative Agent and each Lender under this Section 10.09 are in addition to other rights and remedies
(including other rights of setoff) that the Administrative Agent and such Lender may have at Law. 

Section 10.10.    Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan
Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If any
Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the
interest contracted for, charged or received by an Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee or premium rather
than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

 Section 10.11.    Counterparts. This Agreement and each other Loan Document may be executed in one or
more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery by facsimile or other electronic transmission of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this
Agreement and each other Loan Document shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement and such other Loan Document. The Agents may also require that any such documents and signatures delivered by facsimile or
other electronic transmission be confirmed by a manually signed original thereof; provided that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any document or signature delivered by facsimile or other
electronic transmission. 
 Section 10.12.    Integration. This Agreement, together with the other Loan
Documents, comprises the complete and integrated agreement of the parties on the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, on such subject matter. Subject to Section 10.20, in
the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control; provided that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Agents or
the Lenders in any other Loan Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement. Each Loan Document was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any
party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof. 

  
 156 

 Section 10.13.    Survival of Representations and Warranties. All
representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such
representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the
Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Credit Extension, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or
unsatisfied or any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding. 
 Section 10.14.    Severability. If any
provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be
affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the
illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions; provided that the Lenders shall charge no fee in connection with any such amendment. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such
provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.14, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be
limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent or the L/C Issuers, as applicable, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited. 

Section 10.15.    GOVERNING LAW. 

(a)    THIS AGREEMENT AND EACH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE
STATE OF NEW YORK. 
 (b)    ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING UNDER ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH

RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THOSE COURTS AND AGREES THAT IT WILL NOT COMMENCE OR SUPPORT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANOTHER JURISDICTION. EACH LOAN PARTY, EACH AGENT AND EACH LENDER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES (TO THE
EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW) ANY OBJECTION, INCLUDING ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OR BASED ON THE GROUNDS OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS, WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN SUCH JURISDICTION IN
RESPECT OF ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR OTHER DOCUMENT RELATED THERETO. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENTS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES (OTHER THAN
FACSIMILE) IN 

  
 157 

 
SECTION 10.02. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT WILL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY HERETO TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY
APPLICABLE LAW. 
 Section 10.16.    WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY
WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS
CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON
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 AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL
WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 10.16. 
 Section 10.17.    Binding
Effect. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed and delivered by the Loan Parties and each other party hereto and the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by each Lender and L/C Issuer that each such
Lender and L/C Issuer has executed it and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Loan Parties, each Agent and each Lender and their respective successors and assigns, in each case in accordance with
Section 10.07 (if applicable) and except that no Loan Party shall have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Lenders except as permitted by
Section 7.04. 
 Section 10.18.    USA Patriot Act. Each Lender that is subject to
the USA Patriot Act and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that
identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name, address and Tax identification number of such Loan Party and other information regarding such Loan Party that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to
identify such Loan Party in accordance with the USA Patriot Act. This notice is given in accordance with the requirements of the USA Patriot Act and is effective as to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent. Additionally, each Loan Party agrees to
provide to the Administrative Agent or any Lender from time to time all additional documentation and other information about such Loan Party required under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations,
including the USA Patriot Act, that has been reasonably requested in writing by the Administrative Agent or such Lender. 

Section 10.19.    No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each transaction
contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Affiliates’ understanding, that:
(i) (A) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Loan Parties and
their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers and the Lenders, on the other hand, (B) each Loan Party has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and Tax advisors to the extent it has deemed

Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates, or any other Person and (B) neither the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers nor any Lender has any obligation to the Loan Parties or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to the
transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the Lenders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range
of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Loan Parties and their respective Affiliates, and neither the Administrative Agent nor the Arrangers nor any Lender has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Loan
Parties or any of their respective Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Loan Party hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers and the Lenders with respect to any breach

 ARTICLE XI 

GUARANTEE 

Section 11.01.    The Guarantee. Each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally with the other Guarantors
guarantees, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety to each Secured Party and their respective permitted successors and assigns, the prompt payment in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, demand, by
acceleration or otherwise) of the principal of and interest (including any interest, fees, costs or charges that would accrue but for the provisions of (i) the Title 11 of the United States Code after any bankruptcy or insolvency petition
under Title 11 of the United States Code and (ii) any other Debtor Relief Laws) on the Loans made by the Lenders to, and the Notes held by each Lender of, the Borrower, and all other Secured Obligations from time to time owing to the
Secured Parties by any Loan Party under any Loan Document or any Secured Hedge Agreement or any Treasury Services Agreement, in each case strictly in accordance with the terms thereof (such obligations, including any future increases in the amount
thereof, being herein collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”); provided, however, that Guaranteed Obligations shall exclude all Excluded Swap Obligations. The Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree
that if the Borrower or other Guarantor(s) shall fail to pay in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the Guarantors will promptly pay the same in cash, without any demand or
notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance
with the terms of such extension or renewal. 
 Section 11.02.    Obligations Unconditional. The obligations
of the Guarantors under Section 11.01 shall constitute a guaranty of payment when due and not of collection and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, are absolute, irrevocable and unconditional, joint and
several, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement, the Notes, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or any
substitution, release or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a
surety or Guarantor (except for payment in full), including any defense of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall
not alter or impair the liability of the Guarantors hereunder which shall remain absolute, irrevocable and unconditional under any and all circumstances as described above: 

(a)    at any time or from time to time, without notice to the Guarantors, to the extent permitted by Law, the time for
any performance of or compliance with any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be amended or waived; 

(b)    any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of this Agreement or the Notes, if any, or any other agreement
or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be done or omitted; 
 (c)    the maturity of any of the Guaranteed
Obligations shall be accelerated, extended or renewed or any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be amended in any respect, or any right under the Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be amended or
waived in any respect or any other guarantee of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or except as permitted pursuant to Section 11.09, any security therefor shall be released or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt
with; 

  
 160 

 (d)    any Lien or security interest granted to, or in favor of, an L/C
Issuer or any Lender or Agent as security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall fail to be or remain perfected or the existence of any intervening Lien or security interest; or 

(e)    the release of any other Guarantor pursuant to Section 11.09. 

The Guarantors hereby expressly waive (to the fullest extent permitted by Law) diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and, to the
extent permitted by Law, all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that any Secured Party exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against the Borrower under this Agreement or the Notes, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred
to herein or therein, or against any other person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Guaranteed Obligations. The Guarantors waive, to the extent permitted by Law, any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension, waiver,
termination or accrual of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by any Secured Party upon this Guarantee or acceptance of this Guarantee, and the Guaranteed Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to
have been created, contracted or incurred in reliance upon this Guarantee, and all dealings between the Borrower and the Secured Parties shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Guarantee. This
Guarantee shall be construed as a continuing, absolute, irrevocable and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to any right of offset with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations at any time or from time to time held by Secured Parties, and
the obligations and liabilities of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be conditioned or contingent upon the pursuit by the Secured Parties or any other person at any time of any right or remedy against the Borrower or against any other person which
may be or become liable in respect of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or against any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto. This Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and be binding
in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon the Guarantors and the successors and assigns thereof, and shall inure to the benefit of the Lenders, and their respective successors and assigns, notwithstanding that from time to time during
the term of this Agreement there may be no Guaranteed Obligations outstanding. 

Section 11.03.    Reinstatement. The obligations of the Guarantors under this
Article XI shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower or other Loan Party in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be
otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise. 

Section 11.04.    Subrogation; Subordination. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that until the payment in full in
cash and satisfaction in full of all Guaranteed Obligations (other than Cash Management Obligations, obligations pursuant to Secured Hedge Agreements and contingent obligations, in each case not yet due and owing, and Letters of Credit that have
been Cash Collateralized or backstopped) and the expiration and termination of the Commitments of the Lenders under this Agreement it shall subordinate any claim and shall not exercise any right or remedy, direct or indirect, arising by reason of
any performance by it of its guarantee in Section 11.01, whether by subrogation, contribution or otherwise, against the Borrower or a Subsidiary Guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security for any of the
Guaranteed Obligations. 
 Section 11.05.    Remedies. The Guarantors jointly and severally agree that, as
between the Guarantors and the Lenders, the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement and the Notes, if any, may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Section 8.02 (and shall be deemed to have
become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in Section 8.02) for purposes of Section 11.01, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such
declaration (or such obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against the Borrower and that, in the 

  
 161 

 
event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by the Borrower) shall forthwith become
due and payable by the Guarantors for purposes of Section 11.01. 

Section 11.06.    [Reserved]. 

Section 11.07.    Continuing Guarantee. The guarantee in this Article XI is a
continuing guarantee of payment, and shall apply to all Guaranteed Obligations whenever arising. 

Section 11.08.    General Limitation on Guarantee Obligations. In any action or proceeding involving any state
corporate limited partnership or limited liability company law, or any applicable state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other Law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Guarantor under
Section 11.01 would otherwise be held or determined to be void, voidable, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability under
Section 11.01, then, notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by such Guarantor, any Loan Party or any other Person, be automatically limited and
reduced to the highest amount (after giving effect to the liability under this Guaranty and the right of contribution established in Section 11.10, but before giving effect to any other guarantee) that is valid and
enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding. 

Section 11.09.    Release of Guarantors and Collateral. If, in compliance with the terms and provisions
of the Loan Documents, (i) all or substantially all of the Equity Interests of any Guarantor are sold or otherwise transferred to a Person or Persons none of which is a Loan Party in a transaction permitted hereunder or (ii) any Guarantor
ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder, such Guarantor shall be automatically released from its obligations under this Agreement (including under Section 10.05 hereof) and the
other Loan Documents, including its obligations to pledge and grant any Collateral owned by it pursuant to any Collateral Document and the pledge of such Equity Interests to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Collateral Documents shall be
automatically released, and, so long as the Borrower shall have provided the Agents such certifications or documents as any Agent shall reasonably request, the Administrative Agent shall take such actions as are necessary to effect each release
described in this Section 11.09 in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Collateral Documents. 
 When
all Commitments hereunder have terminated, and all Loans or other Obligations hereunder which are accrued and payable have been paid or satisfied (other than contingent obligations as to which no claim has been asserted, Cash Management Obligations
and obligations pursuant to Secured Hedge Agreements), and no Letter of Credit remains outstanding (except any Letter of Credit the Outstanding Amount of which the Obligations related thereto has been Cash Collateralized or for which a backstop
letter of credit reasonably satisfactory to the applicable L/C Issuer has been put in place), this Agreement and the Guarantees made herein shall terminate with respect to all Obligations, except with respect to Obligations that expressly survive
such repayment pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. 
 In addition: (i) upon termination of the Aggregate Commitments and payment
in full of all Obligations (other than contingent obligations as to which no claim has been asserted, Cash Management Obligations and obligations pursuant to Secured Hedge Agreements) and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit (other
than Letters of Credit which have been Cash Collateralized or as to which other arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuers shall have been made), all Liens on all property granted to or held by the
Collateral Agent under any Loan Document shall automatically be released, (ii) at the time the property subject to such Lien is Disposed as part of or in connection with any Disposition permitted hereunder, the Lien on such property granted to
or 

  
 162 

 
held by the Collateral Agent under any Loan Document shall automatically be released, (iii) subject to Section 10.01, if the release of a Lien on any property
granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any Loan Document is approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders, such Lien on such property shall automatically be released upon the date so approved, authorized or ratified,
or (iv) if the property subject to such Lien is owned by a Guarantor, upon release of such Guarantor from its obligations under its Guaranty pursuant to the first paragraph of this Section 11.09, all Liens on the
property of such Guarantor granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any Loan Document shall automatically be released. 

Section 11.10.    Right of Contribution. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that a Guarantor
shall have paid more than its Proportionate Share of any payment made hereunder, such Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Guarantor hereunder which has not paid its Proportionate Share of such
payment. With respect to any Guarantor, its “Proportionate Share” shall be an amount equal to the amount of any payment made by any Guarantor in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations in each case multiplied by a fraction, of which the
numerator shall be the net worth of such Guarantor on the date hereof and the denominator shall be the aggregate net worth of all the Guarantors on the date hereof (or, in the case of any Guarantor becoming a party hereto pursuant to
Section 6.11, the date of the supplement hereto executed and delivered by such Guarantor). Each Guarantor’s right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 11.04.
The provisions of this Section 11.10 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Guarantor to the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders, and each Guarantor shall remain liable to the
Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders for the full amount guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder. 

Section 11.11.    Keepwell. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely,
unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Loan Party to honor all of its obligations under this Guaranty in respect of Swap Obligations (provided,
however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 11.11 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this
Section 11.11, or otherwise under this Guarantee, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor
under this Section 11.11 shall remain in full force and effect until all Commitments hereunder have terminated, and all Loans or other Obligations hereunder which are accrued and payable have been paid or satisfied (other
than Cash Management Obligations and Obligations arising under any Secured Hedge Agreement), and no Letter of Credit remains outstanding (except any Letter of Credit the Outstanding Amount of which the Obligations related thereto has been Cash
Collateralized or for which a backstop letter of credit reasonably satisfactory to the applicable L/C Issuer has been put in place). Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 11.11 constitute, and this
Section 11.11 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Loan Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

Suisse AG, Cayman Islands Branch, as the Administrative Agent (as amended, restated, extended, supplemented or otherwise modified in writing from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”; the terms defined therein being used herein as
therein defined). 
 I,
[                    ], the [Chief Financial Officer/equivalent officer] of the Borrower, in such capacity and not in an
individual capacity, hereby certify as follows: 
  

	1.	I am the [Chief Financial Officer/equivalent officer] of the Borrower and I am generally familiar with the businesses and assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole; I have made such other
investigations and inquiries as I have deemed appropriate; I am duly authorized to execute this Solvency Certificate on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to the Credit Agreement; and 

 

	2.	As of the date hereof and after giving effect to the Transactions and the incurrence of the indebtedness and obligations being incurred in connection with the Credit Agreement and the Transactions and any rights of, or
claims to, contribution that any Loan Party may have against any other Loan Party, (i) the sum of the debt (including contingent liabilities) of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, does not exceed the present fair saleable
value (on a going concern basis) of the assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole; (ii) the capital of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, is not unreasonably small in relation to the business of the

contingent liabilities) beyond their ability to pay such debts as they mature in the ordinary course of business. For the purposes hereof, the amount of any contingent liability at any time shall be computed as the amount that, in light of all of
the facts and circumstances existing at such time, represents the amount that can reasonably be expected to become an actual or matured liability (irrespective of whether such contingent liabilities meet the criteria for accrual under Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard No. 5).

Securities Accounts and Commodities Accounts, Permitted Liens) in each such Securities Account and Commodity Account by Control, and (iv) it does not hold, own or have any interest in any certificated securities or uncertificated securities
other than those constituting Pledged Securities and those maintained in Securities Accounts or Commodity Accounts listed on Schedule 10 or 11 of the Perfection Certificate, as applicable, or in respect of which the Collateral Agent has Control.

 (d)    Investment Property. If any Pledgor shall at any time acquire any certificated securities constituting

discretion), (i) endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Collateral Agent, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent or
(ii) deliver such securities into a Securities Account with respect to which a Securities Account Control Agreement is in effect in favor of the Collateral Agent. If any securities now or hereafter acquired by any Pledgor constituting
Investment Property that does not constitute Excluded Property are uncertificated and are issued to such Pledgor or its nominee 

  
 15 

 
directly by the issuer thereof, such Pledgor shall promptly, and in any event within 30 days of acquiring such security (or such later date as may be agreed to in writing by the Collateral Agent
in its sole discretion), notify the Collateral Agent thereof and pursuant to an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, either (i) cause the issuer to agree to comply with Entitlement Orders or other
instructions from the Collateral Agent as to such securities, without further consent of any Pledgor or such nominee, (ii) cause a Security Entitlement with respect to such uncertificated security to be held in a Securities Account with respect
to which the Collateral Agent has Control or (iii) arrange for the Collateral Agent to become the registered owner of the securities. The Pledgors shall not hereafter establish and maintain any Securities Account or Commodity Account with any
Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary unless (1) the applicable Pledgor shall have given the Collateral Agent at least 30 days’ (or such shorter period as may be agreed to in writing by the Collateral Agent in its sole
discretion) prior written notice of its intention to establish such new Securities Account or Commodity Account with such Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary, (2) such Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary shall be
reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent and (3) such Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary, as the case may be, and such Pledgor shall have duly executed and delivered a Control Agreement with respect to such Securities
Account or Commodity Account, as the case may be. The Collateral Agent shall not give any Entitlement Orders or instructions or directions to any issuer of uncertificated securities, Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary, and shall not
withhold its consent to the exercise of any withdrawal or dealing rights by such Pledgor, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or, after giving effect to any such withdrawal or dealing rights, would occur. No Pledgor shall grant
Control over any Investment Property to any Person other than the Collateral Agent, and each Pledgor shall promptly (and in any event within 30 days) notify the Collateral Agent if any issuer of Pledged Interests takes any action to have any Pledged
Interests issued by it treated as Securities under Article 8 of the UCC and such Pledgor shall take all steps deemed necessary, advisable or prudent by the Collateral Agent in order to grant Control of such Pledged Interests in favor of the
Collateral Agent. As between the Collateral Agent and the Pledgors, the Pledgors shall bear the investment risk with respect to the Investment Property and Pledged Securities, and the risk of loss of, damage to, or the destruction of the Investment
Property and Pledged Securities, whether in the possession of, or maintained as a security entitlement or deposit by, or subject to the control of, the Collateral Agent, a Securities Intermediary, Commodity Intermediary, any Pledgor or any other
Person; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Section 3.4(d) shall release or relieve any Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary of its duties and obligations to the Pledgors or any other
Person under any Control Agreement or under applicable Laws. Each Pledgor shall promptly pay all Charges and fees of whatever kind or nature with respect to the Investment Property and Pledged Securities pledged by it under this Agreement. In the
event any Pledgor shall fail to make such payment contemplated in the immediately preceding sentence, the Collateral Agent may do so for the account of such Pledgor and the Pledgors shall promptly reimburse and indemnify the Collateral Agent in
accordance with Section 10.04 of the Credit Agreement from all costs and expenses incurred by the Collateral Agent under this Section 3.4(d). 

(e)    Electronic Chattel Paper and Transferable Records. If any amount, individually or in the aggregate, in
excess of $100,000 or payable under or in connection with any of the Collateral is evidenced by any Electronic Chattel Paper or any Transferable Record, the Pledgor acquiring such Electronic Chattel Paper or Transferable Record shall promptly and in
any event 

  
 16 

 
within 30 days of the acquisition thereof (or such later date as may be agreed to in writing by the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion) notify the Collateral Agent thereof and shall take
such action as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request to vest in the Collateral Agent control under Section 9-105 of the UCC of such Electronic Chattel Paper or control under Section 201 of the
Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or, as the case may be, Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, as so in effect in such jurisdiction, of such Transferable Record. The Collateral Agent agrees with
such Pledgor that the Collateral Agent will arrange, pursuant to procedures reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and so long as such procedures will not result in the Collateral Agent’s loss of control, for the Pledgor to make
alterations to the Electronic Chattel Paper or Transferable Record permitted under Section 9-105 of the UCC or, as the case may be, Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and
National Commerce Act or Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act for a party in control to allow without loss of control, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would occur after giving effect to any such
alterations. 

(f)    Letter-of-Credit Rights. If
any Pledgor is at any time a beneficiary under a letter of credit now or hereafter issued in favor of such Pledgor, other than (i) a Letter of Credit issued pursuant to the Credit Agreement or (ii) a letter of credit that is a
“supporting obligation” (as defined in Section 9-102 of the UCC) with respect to other Collateral in which the Collateral Agent has a valid, enforceable, perfected first priority security
interest (subject to Permitted Collateral Liens), in an amount individually in excess of $100,000 or in the aggregate in excess of $250,000, such Pledgor shall promptly (and in any event within 30 days of becoming a beneficiary thereunder (or such
later date as may be agreed to in writing by the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion)) notify the Collateral Agent thereof and such Pledgor shall, at the request of the Collateral Agent, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, either (i) arrange for the issuer and any confirmer or other nominated Person of such letter of credit to consent to an assignment to the Collateral Agent of the proceeds of any drawing under the letter of
credit or (ii) arrange for the Collateral Agent to become the transferee beneficiary of such letter of credit, with the Collateral Agent agreeing, in each case, that the proceeds of any drawing under the letter of credit are to be applied as
provided in the Credit Agreement. 
 (g)    Commercial Tort Claims. As of the date hereof, each Pledgor hereby
represents and warrants that it holds no Commercial Tort Claims having a book value or fair market value, individually, in excess of $100,000, or in the aggregate in excess of $250,000, other than those listed on Schedule 8 of the Perfection
Certificate. If any Pledgor shall at any time hold or acquire a Commercial Tort Claim having a book value or fair market value, individually, in excess of $100,000, or in the aggregate in excess of $250,000, such Pledgor shall promptly (and in any
event within 30 days of acquiring such Commercial Tort Claim (or such later date as may be agreed to in writing by the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion)) notify the Collateral Agent in writing signed by such Pledgor of the brief details
thereof and grant to the Collateral Agent in such writing a security interest therein and in the Proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement, with such writing to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent.

 Section 3.5    Joinder of Additional Pledgors. The Pledgors shall cause any other Subsidiary of the
Borrower which, from time to time, after the date hereof shall be required to 

  
 17 

 
pledge any assets to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to the Credit Agreement, to execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent (i) a Joinder Agreement
substantially in the form of Exhibit 3 hereto or such other form that is reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and the Borrower, (ii) a Perfection Certificate, in each case, within ten Business Days after the date on which it
was acquired or created (or such later date as may be agreed by the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion) and (iii) such other documentation as the Collateral Agent shall reasonably requested, and upon such execution and delivery, such
Subsidiary shall constitute a “Pledgor” for all purposes hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Pledgor herein. The execution and delivery of such Joinder Agreement shall not require the consent of any Pledgor
hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Pledgor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of, or failure to add, any new Pledgor as a party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. 

Section 3.6    Supplements; Further Assurances. Each Pledgor shall take such further actions, and execute and
deliver to the Collateral Agent such additional assignments, agreements, supplements, powers and instruments, as the Collateral Agent may deem necessary, advisable or prudent, wherever required by applicable Laws, in order to perfect, preserve and
protect the security interest and the priority thereof in the Collateral as provided herein and the rights and interests granted to the Collateral Agent hereunder, to carry into effect the purposes hereof or better to assure and confirm unto the
Collateral Agent the Collateral or permit the Collateral Agent to exercise and enforce its rights, powers and remedies hereunder with respect to any Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Pledgor shall make, execute,
endorse, acknowledge, file or refile and/or deliver to the Collateral Agent from time to time upon reasonable request such lists, descriptions and designations of the Collateral, copies of warehouse receipts, receipts in the nature of warehouse
receipts, bills of lading, documents of title, vouchers, invoices, exhibits, schedules, confirmatory assignments, supplements, additional security agreements, additional Perfection Certificates, supplements, conveyances, financing statements,
transfer endorsements, powers of attorney, certificates, reports and other assurances, agreements or instruments as the Collateral Agent shall reasonably request. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent may
institute and maintain, in its own name or in the name of any Pledgor, such suits and proceedings as the Collateral Agent may be advised by counsel shall be necessary, advisable or prudent to prevent any impairment of the security interest in the
Collateral or the perfection or priority thereof. If (x) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or (y) a landlord of any Pledgor shall provide notice of default under or termination of any lease to which a Pledgor is a party
such Pledgor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such landlord to agree (in a writing addressed to the Collateral Agent) to extend the time period provided by such landlord for the removal of Collateral from the leased premises for a
period, and otherwise on terms and conditions, reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent; provided that, in connection therewith, no Pledgor shall agree, directly or indirectly, with any landlord to abandon any Collateral or waive or
limit such Pledgor’s rights in any Collateral. All of the foregoing shall be at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors and shall be paid in accordance with Section 10.04 of the Credit Agreement.

 Section 4.1    Title. Except for the security interest
granted to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement and Permitted Liens, such Pledgor owns (or either owns or has a license to, in the case of Intellectual Property Collateral) and, as to Collateral

the Closing Date relating to the termination statements that will be filed by or on behalf of the Pledgors on the Closing Date. No Person other than the Collateral Agent has, or will have, control or possession of all or any part of the Collateral,
except to the extent not prohibited by the Loan Documents. 
 Section 4.2    Validity of Security Interest.
The security interest in and Lien on the Collateral granted to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties hereunder constitutes (a) a legal and valid security interest in all the Collateral securing the payment and performance

 19 

 
hereunder against all claims and demands of all Persons, at its own cost and expense, at any time claiming any interest therein adverse to the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party. There
is no agreement that restricts the transferability of any material portion of the Collateral or impairs or conflicts with such Pledgor’s obligations or the rights of the Collateral Agent hereunder, and no Pledgor shall enter into any such
agreement or take any other action that would have any such effect. 
 Section 4.4    Other Financing

priority required hereunder in such Pledgor’s property constituting Collateral, for which the Collateral Agent needed to have information relating to such changes. The Collateral Agent shall have no duty to inquire about such changes if any
Pledgor does not inform the Collateral Agent of such changes, the parties acknowledging and agreeing that it would not be feasible or practical for the Collateral Agent to search for information on such changes if such information is not provided by
any Pledgor.

Pledgor’s status as a partner or a member of any issuer of the Initial Pledged Interests. 

Section 4.9    Consents, etc. No consent of any party (including, without limitation, equity holders or

Registered Intellectual Property Collateral in full force and effect throughout the world and to protect and maintain its interest therein, including, without limitation, recordations of any of its interests in the Patents and Trademarks that are
Registered with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and in corresponding national and international patent and trademark offices, and recordation of any of its interests in the Copyrights that are Registered with the United States
Copyright Office and in corresponding national and international copyright offices. Except to the extent that Pledgor’s failure could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, such Pledgor has used proper statutory
notice in connection with its use of each Patent, Trademark and Copyright in the Intellectual Property Collateral. 

(f)    Except to the extent that any of the following could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect, no claim, action, suit, investigation, litigation or proceeding has been asserted or is pending or, to the knowledge of such Pledgor, threatened against such Pledgor (i) based upon or challenging or seeking to deny or restrict the
Pledgor’s rights in or use of any of the Intellectual Property Collateral; (ii) alleging that the Pledgor’s rights in or use of the Intellectual Property Collateral or that any services provided by, processes used by, or products
manufactured or sold by, such Pledgor infringe, misappropriate, dilute, misuse or otherwise violate any patent, trademark, copyright or any other proprietary right of any third party; or (iii) alleging that the Intellectual Property Collateral
is being licensed or sublicensed in violation or contravention of the terms of any license or other agreement. Except to the extent that the following could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, no Person is engaging in

Certificate or any grant in the ordinary course of Pledgor’s business, such Pledgor has not granted any license, release, covenant not to sue, non-assertion assurance, or other right to any Person with
respect to any part of the Intellectual Property Collateral. The consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents will not result in the termination or impairment of any of the Intellectual Property Collateral. 

(g)    With respect to each License Agreement and except to the extent that any of the following could not reasonably be
expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect: (i) such License Agreement is valid and binding and in full force and effect and represents the entire agreement between the respective parties thereto with respect to the subject matter thereof;
(ii) such License Agreement will not cease to be valid and binding and in full force and effect on 

  
 23 

 
terms identical to those currently in effect as a result of the rights and interest granted herein, nor will the grant of such rights and interest constitute a breach or default under such
License Agreement or otherwise give any party thereto a right to terminate such License Agreement; (iii) such Pledgor has not received any notice of termination or cancellation under such License Agreement; (iv) such Pledgor has not
received any notice of a breach or default under such License Agreement, which breach or default has not been cured; (v) such Pledgor has not granted to any other third party any rights, adverse or otherwise, under such License Agreement; and
(vi) neither such Pledgor nor any other party to such License Agreement is in breach or default thereof in any material respect, and no event has occurred that, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute such a breach or default or
permit termination, modification or acceleration under such License Agreement. 
 (h)    To the best of such
Pledgor’s knowledge and except to the extent that any of the following could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, (i) none of the Trade Secrets of such Pledgor has been used, divulged, disclosed or
appropriated to the detriment of such Pledgor for the benefit of any other Person other than such Pledgor and its Affiliates; (ii) no employee, independent contractor or agent of such Pledgor has misappropriated any trade secrets of any other
Person in the course of the performance of his or her duties as an employee, independent contractor or agent of such Pledgor; and (iii) no employee, independent contractor or agent of such Pledgor is in default or breach of any term of any
employment agreement, non-disclosure agreement, assignment of inventions agreement or similar agreement or contract relating in any way to the protection, ownership, development, use or transfer of such
Pledgor’s Intellectual Property Collateral. 
 (i)    Except to the extent that any of the following could not
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, no Pledgor or Intellectual Property Collateral is subject to any outstanding consent, settlement, agreement, decree, order, injunction, judgment or ruling restricting the use of any
Intellectual Property Collateral or that would impair the validity or enforceability of such Intellectual Property Collateral. 

Section 4.13    Payment of Taxes; Compliance with Laws; Contesting Liens; Charges. Each Pledgor may, at its
own expense, contest the validity, amount or applicability of any Charges so long as the contest thereof shall be conducted in accordance with, and not prohibited pursuant to the provisions of, the Credit Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing
sentence, (a) no contest of any such obligation may be pursued by such Pledgor if such contest could reasonably be expected to expose the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to (i) any possible criminal liability or (ii) any
additional civil liability for failure to comply with such obligations unless such Pledgor shall have furnished a bond or other security therefor satisfactory to the Collateral Agent or such Secured Party, as the case may be, and (b) if at any
time payment or performance of any obligation contested by such Pledgor pursuant to this Section 4.13 shall become reasonably necessary to prevent the imposition of remedies because of
non-payment, such Pledgor shall pay or perform the same in sufficient time to prevent the imposition of remedies in respect of such default or prospective default. 

Section 4.14    Access to Collateral, Books and Records; Other Information. Each Pledgor shall permit
representatives of the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party upon reasonable notice to visit and inspect any of its properties (including to conduct any environmental assessments, sampling, testing or monitoring of the Mortgaged Property) or assets

  
 24 

 
and examine and make abstracts from any of its books and records (including insurance policies) at any reasonable time and upon reasonable notice. Such Pledgor shall, at any and all times, within
a reasonable time after written request by the Collateral Agent, furnish or cause to be furnished to the Collateral Agent, in such manner and in such detail as may be reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent, additional information with respect
to the Collateral. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Collateral Agent shall have the right, but not the obligation, to access any Mortgaged Property to undertake any Response that the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion deems
appropriate at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors. 
 ARTICLE V 

CERTAIN PROVISIONS CONCERNING SECURITIES COLLATERAL 

Section 5.1    Pledge of Additional Securities Collateral. Each Pledgor shall, upon obtaining any Pledged
Securities or Intercompany Notes of any Person, accept the same in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and promptly, and in any event within 30 days thereafter (or such later date as may be agreed to in writing by the Collateral Agent in
its sole discretion), deliver to the Collateral Agent a pledge amendment, duly executed by such Pledgor, in substantially the form of Exhibit 2 hereto or such other form that is reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral
Agent and the Borrower (each, a “Pledge Amendment”), and the certificates and other documents required under Section 3.1 and Section 3.2 in respect of such additional Pledged
Securities or Intercompany Notes that are to be pledged pursuant to this Agreement and that confirm the grant of the Lien created hereby in respect of such additional Pledged Securities or Intercompany Notes. Each Pledgor hereby authorizes the
Collateral Agent to attach each Pledge Amendment to this Agreement and agrees that all Pledged Securities or Intercompany Notes listed on any Pledge Amendment delivered to the Collateral Agent shall for all purposes hereunder be considered
Collateral. 
 Section 5.2    Voting Rights; Distributions; etc. 

(a)    So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing: 

(i)    Each Pledgor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting and other consensual rights pertaining to the
Securities Collateral or any part thereof for any purpose not inconsistent with the terms or purposes hereof, the other Loan Documents or any other document evidencing the Secured Obligations; provided, however, that no Pledgor shall in any
event exercise such rights in any manner that could reasonably be expected to (x) have a material adverse effect on the value thereof or (y) be disadvantageous to any Secured Party in any material respect. 

(ii)    Each Pledgor shall be entitled to receive and retain, and to utilize free and clear of the Lien hereof, any and
all Distributions, but only if and to the extent made in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement; provided, however, that any and all such Distributions consisting of rights or interests in the form of Pledged Securities or
Intercompany Notes shall promptly, and in any event within 30 days after receipt thereof (or such later date as may be agreed to in writing by the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion), be delivered to the Collateral Agent to hold as Collateral
and shall, if received by any Pledgor, be received in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, be segregated from the other property or funds of such Pledgor and be forthwith delivered to the Collateral Agent as Collateral in the same form as
so received (with any necessary, advisable or reasonably requested endorsement). 

  
 25 

 (b)    Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of
Default, the Collateral Agent may implement either or both of the following remedies: 
 (i)    All rights of each
Pledgor to exercise the voting and other consensual rights it would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 5.2(a)(i) shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Collateral Agent, which, shall thereupon
have the sole right to exercise such voting and other consensual rights. 
 (ii)    All rights of each Pledgor to
receive Distributions that it would otherwise be authorized to receive and retain pursuant to Section 5.2(a)(ii) without further action shall cease and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Collateral Agent, which, shall
thereupon have the sole right to receive and hold as Collateral such Distributions. 
 (c)    Upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Pledgor shall, at its sole cost and expense, from time to time execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent appropriate instruments as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request in order to permit
the Collateral Agent to exercise the voting and other rights which it may be entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 5.2(b)(i) and to receive all Distributions which it may be entitled to receive under
Section 5.2(b)(ii). If the Collateral Agent duly exercises its right to vote any of such Pledged Securities, each Pledgor appoints the Collateral Agent, such Pledgor’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact and grants the Collateral Agent an irrevocable proxy to vote such Pledged Securities in any manner the Collateral Agent deems advisable for or against all matters submitted or which may be
submitted to a vote of shareholders, partners or members, as the case may be. The power-of-attorney and proxy granted hereby is coupled with an interest and shall be
irrevocable. 
 (d)    All Distributions that are received by any Pledgor contrary to the provisions of
Section 5.2(b)(ii) shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, shall be segregated from the other funds of such Pledgor and shall immediately be paid over to the Collateral Agent as Collateral in the
same form as so received (with any necessary, advisable or reasonably requested endorsement). 

Section 5.3    Default. None of the Pledgors is in default or violation under any agreement to which any such
Pledgor is a party relating to the Pledged Securities pledged by it (including with respect to the payment of any portion of any mandatory capital contribution, if any, required to be made thereunder). No Securities Collateral pledged by any Pledgor
is subject to any defense, offset or counterclaim, nor, to the knowledge of such Pledgor, have any of the foregoing been asserted or alleged against such Pledgor by any Person with respect thereto, and as of the date hereof, there are no
certificates, instruments, documents or other writings (other than the Organization Documents of such Pledgor and certificates, if any, delivered to the Collateral Agent) which evidence any Pledged Securities of such Pledgor. 

  
 26 

 Section 5.4    Certain Agreements of Pledgors as Issuers and Holders
of Equity Interests. 
 (a)    In the case of each Pledgor that is an issuer of Securities Collateral, such Pledgor
agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement relating to the Securities Collateral issued by it and will comply with such terms insofar as such terms are applicable to it. 

(b)    In the case of each Pledgor that is a partner, member or holder of any Equity Interests in a partnership, limited
liability company or other entity, such Pledgor hereby consents to the extent required by the applicable Organization Documents of such Pledgor to the pledge by each other Pledgor, pursuant to the terms hereof, of the Pledged Interests in such
partnership, limited liability company or other entity and, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to the transfer of such Pledged Interests to the Collateral Agent or its nominee and to the substitution of the
Collateral Agent or its nominee as a substituted partner, member or holder of Equity Interests in such partnership, limited liability company or other entity with all the rights, powers and duties of a general partner, limited partner, member or
holder of Equity Interests, as the case may be. 
 ARTICLE VI 

CERTAIN PROVISIONS CONCERNING INTELLECTUAL 

PROPERTY COLLATERAL 

Section 6.1    Grant of License. For the purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent, during the continuance of
an Event of Default, to exercise rights and remedies under Article IX at such time as the Collateral Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, and for no other purpose, each Pledgor hereby
grants to the Collateral Agent, to the extent licensable, an irrevocable, non-exclusive worldwide license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to such Pledgor) to use, assign, license
sublicense or otherwise dispose of the Intellectual Property Collateral now owned or hereafter acquired by such Pledgor, wherever the same may be located. Such license shall include access to all media in which any of the Intellectual Property
Collateral may be recorded or stored and to all computer programs used for the compilation or printout hereof. 

Section 6.2    Registration. Except to the extent that the failure of any of the following could not
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, and except pursuant to licenses and other agreements entered into by any Pledgor in the ordinary course of business, on and as of the date hereof (i) each Pledgor owns and/or
possesses the right to use, and has done nothing to authorize or enable any other Person to use, any Copyright, Patent or Trademark listed on Schedule 7(A), 7(B) or 7(C) to the Perfection Certificate, and (ii) to the knowledge of Pledgor, all
registrations listed on Schedule 7(A), 7(B) or 7(C) to the Perfection Certificate are valid and in full force and effect. 

Section 6.3    Protection of Collateral Agent’s Security. 

(a)    Except to the extent that Pledgor’s could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect,
with respect to each item of its Intellectual Property Collateral, each Pledgor agrees, on a continuing basis, to take, at its sole cost and expense, all necessary steps, including, without limitation, in the United States Patent and Trademark
Office, the United States Copyright Office and any other Governmental Authority, to (i) maintain the validity and enforceability of such Intellectual Property Collateral and maintain such Intellectual Property

  
 27 

 
Collateral in full force and effect and (ii) pursue the registration and maintenance of each Patent, Trademark, or Copyright registration or application, now or hereafter included in such
Intellectual Property Collateral of such Pledgor, including, without limitation, the payment of required fees and taxes, the filing of responses to office actions issued by the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright

misappropriation proceedings. No Pledgor shall, without the written consent of the Collateral Agent, discontinue use of or otherwise abandon any Intellectual Property Collateral, or abandon any right to file an application for any Patent, Trademark,
or Copyright, unless such Pledgor shall have previously determined that such use or the pursuit or maintenance of such Intellectual Property Collateral is no longer desirable in the conduct of such Pledgor’s business and that the loss thereof
would not be reasonably likely to materially adversely affect the operation of such Pledgor’s business, in which case, such Pledgor will give prompt notice of any such abandonment to the Collateral Agent. 

(b)    Each Pledgor agrees, on a continuing basis, promptly (and in any event within 30 days) to notify the Collateral
Agent if such Pledgor becomes aware (i) that any item of the Intellectual Property Collateral may have become abandoned, placed in the public domain, invalid or unenforceable, or of any adverse determination or development regarding such
Pledgor’s ownership of any of the Intellectual Property Collateral or its right to register the same or to keep and maintain and enforce the same, or (ii) of any adverse determination or the institution of any proceeding (including,
without limitation, the institution of any proceeding in the United States Patent and Trademark Office or any court) regarding any item of the Intellectual Property Collateral. 

(c)    In the event that any Pledgor becomes aware that any material item of the Intellectual Property Collateral is being
infringed or misappropriated by a third party, such Pledgor shall promptly (and in any event within 30 days) notify the Collateral Agent and shall take such actions, at its expense, as such Pledgor or the Collateral Agent deems reasonable and
appropriate under the circumstances to protect or enforce such Intellectual Property Collateral, including, without limitation, suing for infringement or misappropriation and for an injunction against such infringement or misappropriation. Without
limiting the foregoing, upon such Pledgor obtaining knowledge thereof, Pledgor shall promptly (and in any event within 30 days) notify the Collateral Agent in writing of any event that may be reasonably expected to materially and adversely affect
the value or utility any item of Intellectual Property Collateral, the ability of such Pledgor or the Collateral Agent to dispose of such Intellectual Property Collateral or any portion thereof or the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent in
relation thereto, including a levy or written threat of levy or any legal process against such Intellectual Property Collateral or any portion thereof. 

(d)    Each Pledgor agrees, on a continuing basis, to use proper statutory notice in connection with its use of each
material item of its Intellectual Property Collateral. No Pledgor shall do or permit any act or knowingly omit to do any act whereby any of its Intellectual Property Collateral may lapse or become invalid or unenforceable or placed in the public

  
 28 

 
domain. No Pledgor will settle or compromise any pending or future litigation or administrative proceeding with respect to any material Intellectual Property Collateral without the prior written
consent of the Collateral Agent. 
 (e)    Except as otherwise permitted by this Article VI, each Pledgor agrees,
on a continuing basis, to take all steps which it or the Collateral Agent deems reasonable and appropriate under the circumstances to preserve and protect each material item of its Intellectual Property Collateral, including, without limitation,
maintaining the quality of any and all products or services used or provided in connection with any of the Trademarks, consistent with the quality of the products and services as of the date hereof, and taking all steps necessary to ensure that all
licensed users of any of the Trademarks use such consistent standards of quality. 
 (f)    No Pledgor shall
(i) license any Intellectual Property Collateral other than pursuant to License Agreements entered into by such Pledgor in, or incidental to, the ordinary course of its business, or (ii) amend or permit the amendment of any License
Agreement in a manner that materially and adversely affects the right to receive payments thereunder, or in any manner that would materially impair the value of any Intellectual Property Collateral or the Lien on and security interest in the
Intellectual Property Collateral intended to be granted to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in the case of each of subclauses (i) and (ii), without the consent of the Collateral Agent. 

(g)    Each Pledgor agrees, on a continuing basis, to diligently keep adequate records respecting the Intellectual
Property Collateral and to furnish to the Collateral Agent, from time to time upon the Collateral Agent’s reasonable request therefor, reasonably detailed statements and amended schedules to the Perfection Certificate further identifying and
describing the Intellectual Property Collateral and such other materials evidencing or reports pertaining to the Intellectual Property Collateral as the Collateral Agent may from time to time request. 

(h)    During the continuance of an Event of Default, within three Business Days after written notice from the Collateral
Agent, each Pledgor agrees to make available to the Collateral Agent, to the extent within such Pledgor’s power and authority, such personnel in such Pledgor’s employ on the date of such Event of Default as the Collateral Agent may
reasonably designate, by name, title or job responsibility, to permit such Pledgor to continue, directly or indirectly, to produce, advertise and sell the products and services sold or delivered by such Pledgor under or in connection with the
Intellectual Property Collateral, and each Pledgor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that such Persons shall be available to perform their prior functions on the Collateral Agent’s behalf if compensated at Pledgor’s
expense on a per diem, pro rata basis consistent with the salary and benefits structure applicable to each as of the date of such Event of Default. 

(i)    With respect to its Intellectual Property Collateral, each Pledgor agrees to execute or otherwise authenticate
agreements, as applicable, the Copyright Security Agreement, Patent Security Agreement and Trademark Security Agreement in substantially the forms set forth in Exhibits 6, 7 and 8 hereto or otherwise in form and substance
satisfactory to the Collateral Agent for recording the security interest granted hereunder to the Collateral Agent in such Intellectual Property Collateral with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office and
any other Governmental Authorities necessary to perfect the security interest hereunder in such Intellectual Property Collateral. 

  
 29 

 If any Pledgor shall, at any time before the payment in full of the Secured Obligations, (a) obtain any
rights to any additional Intellectual Property Collateral or (b) become entitled to the benefit of any additional Intellectual Property Collateral or any renewal or extension thereof, including any reissue, division, continuation, or continuation-in-part of any Intellectual Property Collateral, or any improvement on any Intellectual Property Collateral, the provisions of this Agreement shall automatically
apply thereto and any such item enumerated in clause (a) or (b) of this paragraph with respect to such Pledgor shall automatically constitute Intellectual Property Collateral if such item would have constituted Intellectual Property
Collateral at the time of execution hereof and be subject to the Lien and security interest created by this Agreement without further action by any party (excluding any Intellectual Property Collateral that constitutes Excluded Property). Each
Pledgor shall promptly (i) provide to the Collateral Agent written notice of any of the foregoing once each calendar quarter and (ii) confirm the attachment of the Lien and security interest created by this Agreement to any rights
described in clauses (a) and (b) of the immediately preceding sentence of this paragraph by execution of an instrument in form reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent and the filing of any instruments or statements as shall be deemed
necessary, advisable or prudent by the Collateral Agent to preserve, protect or perfect the Collateral Agent’s security interest or the priority thereof in such Intellectual Property Collateral to the extent such security interest in such
Intellectual Property Collateral may be perfected under applicable Laws. Further, each Pledgor authorizes the Collateral Agent to modify this Agreement by amending Schedule 7 to the Perfection Certificate to include any Intellectual Property
Collateral acquired or arising after the date hereof of such Pledgor. 
 Unless there shall occur and be continuing any Event of Default, each Pledgor shall
have the right to commence and prosecute in its own name, as the party in interest, for its own benefit and at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors, such applications for protection of the Intellectual Property Collateral and suits, proceedings
or other actions to prevent the infringement, counterfeiting, unfair competition, dilution, diminution in value or other damage as are necessary, advisable or prudent to protect the Intellectual Property Collateral. Upon the occurrence and during
the continuance of any Event of Default, the Collateral Agent shall have the right but shall in no way be obligated to file applications for protection of the Intellectual Property Collateral and/or bring suit in the name of any Pledgor, the
Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties to enforce the Intellectual Property Collateral and any license thereunder. In the event of such suit, each Pledgor shall, at the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, do any and all lawful acts and
execute any and all documents requested by the Collateral Agent in aid of such enforcement and the Pledgors shall promptly reimburse and indemnify the Collateral Agent in accordance with Section 10.04 of the Credit Agreement for all costs and
expenses incurred by the Collateral Agent in the exercise of its rights under this Section 6.3. In the event that the Collateral Agent shall elect not to bring such suit to enforce the Intellectual Property Collateral, each
Pledgor agrees, at the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, to take all actions necessary, advisable or prudent, whether by suit, proceeding or other action, to prevent the infringement, counterfeiting, unfair competition, dilution,
diminution in value of or other damage to any of the Intellectual Property Collateral by others and for that purpose agrees to diligently maintain any suit, proceeding or other action against any Person so infringing necessary to prevent such
infringement.

Pledgor shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such Account and all records, papers and documents relating thereto (i) are genuine and correct and in all material respects what they purport to be, (ii) to the Pledgor’s
knowledge, represent the legal, valid and binding obligation of the account debtor, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally or by
equitable principles relating to enforceability, evidencing indebtedness unpaid and owed by such account debtor, arising out of the performance of labor or services or the sale, lease, license, assignment or other disposition and delivery of the

shall, at such Pledgor’s sole cost and expense, upon the Collateral Agent’s demand made at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, deliver all tangible evidence of Accounts, including all documents
evidencing Accounts and any books and records relating thereto to the Collateral Agent or to its representatives (copies of which evidence and books and records may be retained by such Pledgor). Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any
Event of Default, the Collateral Agent may transfer a full and complete copy of any Pledgor’s books, records, credit information, reports, memoranda and all other writings relating to the Accounts to and for the use by any Person that has
acquired or is contemplating acquisition of an interest in the Accounts or the Collateral Agent’s security interest therein without the consent of any Pledgor. 

Section 7.3    Legend. At the request of the Collateral Agent and in form and manner satisfactory to the
Collateral Agent, each Pledgor shall legend the Accounts and the other books, records and documents of such Pledgor evidencing or pertaining to the Accounts with an appropriate reference to the fact that the Accounts have been assigned to the
Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties and that the Collateral Agent has a security interest therein. 

Section 7.4    Modification of Terms, etc. No Pledgor shall rescind or cancel any obligations evidenced by any
Account or modify any term thereof or make any adjustment with respect thereto except in the ordinary course of business in a manner consistent with prudent business practices, or extend or renew any such obligations except in the ordinary course of
business consistent with prudent business practices, or compromise or settle any dispute, claim, suit or legal proceeding relating thereto or sell any Account or interest therein except in the ordinary course of business in a manner consistent with
prudent business practices, in each case, without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent. Each Pledgor shall timely fulfill all obligations on its part to be fulfilled under or in connection with the Accounts. 

  
 31 

 Section 7.5    Collection. Each Pledgor shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to collect from the account debtor of each of the Accounts, as and when due in the ordinary course of business and consistent with prudent business practices (including Accounts that are delinquent, such Accounts to be collected
in accordance with generally accepted commercial collection procedures), any and all amounts owing under or on account of such Account, and apply forthwith upon receipt thereof all such amounts as are so collected to the outstanding balance of such
Account, except that any Pledgor may, with respect to an Account, allow in the ordinary course of business (i) a refund or credit due as a result of returned or damaged or defective merchandise and (ii) such extensions of time to pay
amounts due in respect of Accounts and such other modifications of payment terms or settlements in respect of Accounts as shall be commercially reasonable in the circumstances, all in accordance with such Pledgor’s ordinary course of business
consistent with its collection practices as in effect from time to time. The costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) of collection, in any case, whether incurred by any Pledgor, the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party, shall be paid by
the Pledgors in accordance with Section 10.04 of the Credit Agreement. 
 ARTICLE VIII

 ARTICLE IX 

REMEDIES 

Section 9.1    Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the
Collateral Agent may from time to time exercise in respect of the Collateral, in addition to the other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it (including all rights afforded a secured party under the UCC), the following
remedies: 
 (a)    Personally, or by agents or attorneys, immediately take possession of the Collateral or any part
thereof, from any Pledgor or any other Person who then has possession of any part thereof with or without notice or process of law, and for that purpose may enter upon any Pledgor’s premises where any of the Collateral is located, remove such
Collateral, remain present at such premises to receive copies of all communications and remittances relating to the Collateral and use in connection with such removal and possession any and all services, supplies, aids and other facilities of any
Pledgor; 
 (b)    Demand, sue for, collect or receive any money or property at any time payable or receivable in
respect of the Collateral including instructing the obligor or obligors on any agreement, instrument or other obligation constituting part of the Collateral to make any payment required by the terms of such agreement, instrument or other obligation
directly to the Collateral Agent, and in connection with any of the foregoing, compromise, settle, extend the time for 

  
 32 

 
payment and make other modifications with respect thereto; provided, however, that in the event that any such payments are made directly to any Pledgor, prior to receipt by any such
obligor of such instruction, such Pledgor shall segregate all amounts received pursuant thereto in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and shall promptly but in no event later than three Business Days after receipt thereof (or such later
date as may be agreed to in writing by the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion) pay such amounts to the Collateral Agent; 

(c)    Sell, assign, grant a license to use or otherwise liquidate, or direct any Pledgor to sell, assign, grant a license
to use or otherwise liquidate, any and all investments made in whole or in part with the Collateral or any part thereof, and take possession of the proceeds of any such sale, assignment, license or liquidation; 

(d)    Take possession of the Collateral or any part thereof, by directing any Pledgor in writing to deliver the same to
the Collateral Agent at any place or places so designated by the Collateral Agent, in which event such Pledgor shall at its own expense: (i) forthwith cause the same to be moved to the place or places designated by the Collateral Agent and
therewith delivered to the Collateral Agent, (ii) store and keep any Collateral so delivered to the Collateral Agent at such place or places pending further action by the Collateral Agent and (iii) while the Collateral shall be so stored
and kept, provide such security and maintenance services as shall be necessary to protect the same and to preserve and maintain them in good condition. Each Pledgor’s obligation to deliver the Collateral as contemplated in this
Section 9.1(d) is of the essence hereof. Upon application to a court of equity having jurisdiction, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to a decree requiring specific performance by any Pledgor of such obligation; 

(e)    Withdraw all moneys, instruments, securities and other property in any bank, financial securities, deposit or other
account of any Pledgor constituting Collateral for application to the Secured Obligations as provided in Article X; 

(f)    Retain and apply the Distributions to the Secured Obligations as provided in Article X;

 (g)    Exercise any and all rights as beneficial and legal owner of the Collateral, including perfecting assignment
of and exercising any and all voting, consensual and other rights and powers with respect to any Collateral; and 

(h)    All the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the
affected Collateral), and the Collateral Agent may also in its sole discretion, without notice except as specified in Section 9.2, sell, assign, transfer or grant a license to use the Collateral or any part thereof in one
or more parcels at public or private sale, at any exchange, broker’s board or at any of the Collateral Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as the
Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable. The Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party or any of their respective Affiliates may be the purchaser, licensee, assignee or recipient of any or all of the Collateral at any such sale and shall
be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold, assigned or licensed at such sale, to use and apply any of the Secured Obligations owed to such Person as a
credit on account of the purchase price of any Collateral payable by such Person at such sale. Each purchaser, assignee, licensee or recipient at any such sale shall 

  
 33 

 
acquire the property sold, assigned or licensed absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of any Pledgor, and each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable
Laws, all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal that it now has or may at any time in the future have under any Law now existing or hereafter enacted. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of
notice of sale having been given. The Collateral Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which
it was so adjourned. Each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws, any claims against the Collateral Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at which any Collateral may have been sold, assigned or
licensed at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Collateral to more than one offeree. 

Section 9.2    Notice of Sale. Each Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that, to the extent notice of sale or
other disposition of Collateral shall be required by any Law, ten days’ prior notice to such Pledgor of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition is to take place shall be
commercially reasonable notification of such matters, unless the Collateral is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market (in which case no such prior notice shall be required). No
notification need be given to any Pledgor if it has signed, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, a statement renouncing or modifying any right to notification of sale or other intended disposition. 

Section 9.3    Waiver of Notice and Claims; Other Waivers; Marshalling. 

(a)    Each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws, notice of judicial hearing in
connection with the Collateral Agent’s taking possession or the Collateral Agent’s disposition of any of the Collateral, including any and all prior notice and hearing for any prejudgment remedy or remedies and any such right which such
Pledgor would otherwise have under any Law, and each Pledgor hereby further waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws, (i) all damages occasioned by such taking of possession, (ii) all other requirements as to the time,
place and terms of sale or other requirements with respect to the enforcement of the Collateral Agent’s rights hereunder and (iii) all rights of redemption, appraisal, valuation, stay, extension or moratorium now or hereafter in force
under any applicable Laws. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any incorrect or improper payment made pursuant to this Article IX except to the extent resulting solely from the Collateral Agent’s gross
negligence or willful misconduct as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. Any sale of, or the grant of options to purchase, or any other realization upon, any Collateral shall operate to divest all right, title, interest, claim
and demand, either at law or in equity, of the applicable Pledgor therein and thereto, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity or otherwise against such Pledgor and against any and all Persons claiming or attempting to claim the
Collateral so sold, optioned or realized upon, or any part thereof, from, through or under such Pledgor. 
 (b)    Each
Pledgor hereby waives demand, notice, protest, notice of acceptance of this Agreement, notice of Credit Extensions, Collateral received or delivered or any other action taken in reliance hereon and all other demands and notices of any description.

  
 34 

 (c)    The Collateral Agent shall not be required to marshal any present or
future collateral security (including the Collateral) for, or other assurances of payment of, the Secured Obligations or any of them or to resort to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order. To the maximum
extent permitted by applicable Laws, each Pledgor hereby agrees that it will not invoke any Law relating to the marshalling of collateral and hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such Laws. 

Section 9.4    Standards for Exercising Rights and Remedies. (a) To the extent that applicable Laws
impose duties on the Collateral Agent to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, each Pledgor acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for the Collateral Agent (i) to fail to incur expenses reasonably
deemed significant by the Collateral Agent to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to fail to complete raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (ii) to fail to obtain third party
consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or to fail to obtain consents for Governmental Authorities or third parties for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (iii) to fail to
exercise collection remedies against account debtors or other Persons obligated on Collateral or to fail to remove liens or encumbrances on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (iv) to exercise collection remedies against account debtors
and other Persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (v) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the
Collateral is of a specialized nature, (vi) to contact other Persons, whether or not in the same business as any Pledgor, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of the Collateral, (vii) to hire one or more professional
auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the collateral is of a specialized nature, (viii) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the
Collateral or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (x) to disclaim or modify disposition warranties, (xi) to
purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure the Collateral Agent against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to the Collateral Agent a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or
(xii) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Collateral Agent, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist the Collateral Agent in the collection or disposition of any of the
Collateral. The Pledgors acknowledge that the purpose of this Section 9.4 is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Collateral Agent would fulfill
the Collateral Agent’s duties under the UCC or other Law of the State or any other relevant jurisdiction in the Collateral Agent’s exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Collateral Agent
shall not be deemed to fail to fulfill such duties solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 9.4. Without limiting the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 9.4 shall be
construed to grant any rights to any Pledgor or to impose any duties on the Collateral Agent that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable Laws in the absence of this Section 9.4. 

(a)    Each Pledgor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in Laws, the Collateral Agent may be
compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Collateral, to limit purchasers to those who meet the requirements of a Governmental Authority. Each Pledgor acknowledges that any such sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable
to 

  
 35 

 
the Collateral Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions, and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such restricted sale shall be deemed to have
been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that, except as may be required by applicable Laws, the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales. 

(b)    Each Pledgor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the “Securities Act”), and applicable state or foreign securities laws, the Collateral Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale or disposition of all or any part of the Securities Collateral and Investment Property, to
limit purchasers to Persons who will agree, among other things, to acquire such Securities Collateral or Investment Property for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Pledgor acknowledges
that any such private sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Collateral Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions (including a public offering made pursuant to a registration statement under the
Securities Act), and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no
obligation to delay the sale of any Securities Collateral or Investment Property for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register it for a form of public sale requiring registration under the Securities Act or under
applicable state or foreign securities laws, even if such issuer would agree to do so. 
 (c)    Notwithstanding the
foregoing, each Pledgor shall, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, at the request of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties, cause any registration, qualification
under or compliance with any federal, state or foreign securities law or laws to be effected with respect to all or any part of the Securities Collateral as soon as practicable and at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors. Each Pledgor will
cause such registration to be effected (and be kept effective) and cause such qualification and compliance to be effected (and be kept effective) as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of such Securities
Collateral including registration under the Securities Act (or any similar statute then in effect), appropriate qualifications under applicable blue sky or other state or foreign securities laws and appropriate compliance with all other requirements
of any Governmental Authority. Each Pledgor shall cause the Collateral Agent to be kept advised in writing as to the progress of each such registration, qualification or compliance and as to the completion thereof, shall furnish to the Collateral
Agent such number of prospectuses, offering circulars or other documents incident thereto as the Collateral Agent from time to time may request, and shall indemnify and shall cause the issuer of the Securities Collateral to indemnify the Collateral
against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities caused by any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained therein (or in any related registration statement, notification or the like) or by any omission (or alleged
omission) to state therein (or in any related registration statement, notification or the like) a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. 

(d)    If the Collateral Agent determines to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Securities Collateral or
Investment Property, upon written request, the applicable Pledgor shall, and shall cause each issuer of Securities Collateral and Investment Property to be sold hereunder to, from time to time furnish to the Collateral Agent all such information as
the Collateral Agent 

  
 36 

 
may reasonably request in order to determine the number and nature or interest, of securities or other instruments included in the Securities Collateral or Investment Property which may be sold
by the Collateral Agent as exempt transactions under the Securities Act and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, as the same are from time to time in effect. 

(e)    Each Pledgor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this
Section 9.4 will cause irreparable injury to the Collateral Agent and other Secured Parties, that the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a
consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section 9.4 shall be specifically enforceable against such Pledgor, and such Pledgor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for
specific performance of such covenants. 
 Section 9.5    No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. 

(a)    No failure on the part of the Collateral Agent to exercise, no course of dealing with respect to, and no delay on
the part of the Collateral Agent 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 hereunder preclude any other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy; nor shall the Collateral Agent be required to look first to, enforce or exhaust any other security, collateral or guaranties. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and are not
exclusive of any remedies provided by applicable Laws, in equity or otherwise. 
 (b)    In the event that the
Collateral Agent shall have instituted any proceeding to enforce any right, power or remedy under this Agreement by foreclosure, sale, entry or otherwise, and such proceeding shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have
been determined adversely to the Collateral Agent, then and in every such case, the Pledgors, the Collateral Agent and each other Secured Party shall be restored to their respective former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the
Collateral, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties shall continue as if no such proceeding had been instituted. 

Section 9.6    Certain Additional Actions Regarding Intellectual Property. If any Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, upon the written demand of the Collateral Agent, each Pledgor shall execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent an assignment or assignments of the Intellectual Property Collateral that is Registered or such other
documents as are necessary, advisable or prudent to carry out the intent and purposes hereof.

APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS 

Section 10.1    Proceeds of Casualty Events and Collateral Dispositions. The Pledgors shall take all actions
required by the Credit Agreement with respect to any Net Proceeds of any Casualty Event or from the sale or disposition of any Collateral. 

  
 37 

 Section 10.2    Application of Proceeds. The proceeds received by
the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral pursuant to the exercise by the Collateral Agent of its remedies shall be applied, together with any other sums then held by
the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement, in accordance with the Credit Agreement. 
 ARTICLE XI 

MISCELLANEOUS 

Section 11.1    Concerning Collateral Agent. 

(i)    The Collateral Agent has been appointed as collateral agent pursuant to the Credit Agreement. The actions of the
Collateral Agent hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Credit Agreement. The Collateral Agent shall have the right hereunder to make demands, to give notices, to exercise or refrain from exercising any rights, and to take or refrain from
taking action (including the release or substitution of the Collateral), in accordance with this Agreement and the Credit Agreement. Each Secured Party, by its acceptance of the benefits hereof, agrees that it shall have no right individually to
realize upon any of the Collateral hereunder, it being understood and agreed by such Secured Party that all rights and remedies hereunder may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement. The Collateral Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact in connection herewith and shall not be liable for the negligence or misconduct of
any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it in good faith. The Collateral Agent may resign and a successor Collateral Agent may be appointed in the manner
provided in the Credit Agreement. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Collateral Agent by a successor Collateral Agent, that successor Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges
and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent under this Agreement, and the retiring Collateral Agent shall thereupon be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation, the
provisions hereof shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Agreement while it was the Collateral Agent. 

(ii)    Except for the exercise of reasonable care in the custody of any Collateral in its possession and the accounting
for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the Collateral Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining to any Collateral. The
Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession from time to time if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equivalent to that which the Collateral
Agent, in its individual capacity, accords its own property consisting of similar instruments or interests; provided that neither the Collateral Agent nor any of the other Secured Parties nor any of their respective directors, officers,
employees or agents shall have responsibility for (x) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relating to any Securities Collateral, whether or not the Collateral Agent
or any other Secured Party has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters, (y) failing to demand, collect or realize upon all or any part of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or (z) failing to take any necessary steps to
preserve rights against any Person with respect to any Collateral. 

  
 38 

 (iii)    The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any written
notice, statement, certificate, order or other document or any telephone message believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person, and, with respect to all matters pertaining to this Agreement and
its duties hereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by it. 
 (iv)    If any item of Collateral also constitutes
collateral granted to the Collateral Agent under any other deed of trust, mortgage, security agreement, pledge or instrument of any type, in the event of any conflict between the provisions hereof and the provisions of such other deed of trust,
mortgage, security agreement, pledge or instrument of any type in respect of such collateral, the Collateral Agent, in its sole discretion, shall determine which provisions shall control. 

Section 11.2    Collateral Agent May Perform; Collateral Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. If any Pledgor shall fail to perform any covenants contained in this Agreement (including such Pledgor’s covenants to (i) pay the premiums in respect of all required insurance
policies hereunder, (ii) pay Charges, (iii) make repairs, (iv) discharge Liens or (v) pay or perform any obligations of such Pledgor under any Collateral) or if any representation or warranty on the part of any Pledgor contained
herein shall be breached, the Collateral Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) do the same or cause it to be done or remedy any such breach, and may expend funds for such purpose; provided, however, that the Collateral Agent shall in no
event be bound to inquire into the validity of any Charges, Lien, imposition or other obligation which such Pledgor fails to pay or perform as and when required hereby and which such Pledgor does not contest in accordance with the provisions of
Section 4.13. Any and all amounts so expended by the Collateral Agent shall be paid by the Pledgors in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.04 of the Credit Agreement. Neither the provisions of this
Section 11.2 nor any action taken by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Section 11.2 shall prevent any such failure to observe any covenant contained in this Agreement nor any
breach of representation or warranty from constituting an Event of Default. Each Pledgor hereby appoints the Collateral Agent its attorney-in-fact, with full authority
in the place and stead of such Pledgor and in the name of such Pledgor, or otherwise, from time to time in the Collateral Agent’s discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument consistent with the terms of the Credit Agreement,
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents which the Collateral Agent may deem necessary, advisable or prudent to accomplish the purposes hereof. The foregoing grant of authority is a power of attorney coupled with an interest and such appointment
shall be irrevocable for the term hereof. Each Pledgor hereby ratifies all that such attorney shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. 

Section 11.3    Continuing Security Interest; Assignment. This Agreement shall create a continuing security
interest in the Collateral and shall (i) be binding upon the Pledgors, their respective successors and assigns and (ii) inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent hereunder, to the benefit of the Collateral Agent
and the other Secured Parties and each of their respective successors, transferees and assignees (including permitted assignees pursuant to Section 10.07 of the Credit Agreement). No other Persons (including any other creditor of any Pledgor)
shall have any interest herein or any right or benefit with respect hereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (ii), any Secured Party may assign or otherwise transfer any obligations held by it secured by this Agreement to
any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Secured Party, herein or otherwise, subject however, to the provisions of the Credit Agreement. 

  
 39 

 Section 11.4    Termination; Release; Reinstatement. Collateral
shall be released if and to the extent so provided in Section 11.09 of the Credit Agreement. Each Pledgor agrees that, if any payment made by any Loan Party or other Person and applied to the Secured Obligations is at any time annulled,
avoided, set aside, rescinded, invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential or otherwise required to be refunded or repaid, or the proceeds of any Collateral are required to be returned by any Secured Party to such Loan Party, its estate,
trustee, receiver or any other party, including any Pledgor, under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or repayment, any Lien or other Collateral securing such liability shall
be and remain in full force and effect, as fully as if such payment had never been made. If, prior to any of the foregoing, any Lien or other Collateral securing such Pledgor’s liability hereunder shall have been released or terminated by
virtue of the foregoing, such Lien, other Collateral or provision shall be reinstated in full force and effect and such prior release, termination, cancellation or surrender shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect the
obligations of any such Pledgor in respect of any Lien or other Collateral securing such obligation or the amount of such payment. 

Section 11.5    Modification in Writing. No amendment, modification, supplement, termination or waiver of or
to any provision hereof, nor consent to any departure by any Pledgor therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be made in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and unless in writing and signed by the Collateral Agent. Any
amendment, modification or supplement of or to any provision hereof, any waiver of any provision hereof and any consent to any departure by any Pledgor from the terms of any provision hereof shall be effective only in the specific instance and for
the specific purpose for which made or given. Except where notice is specifically required by this Agreement, no notice to or demand on any Pledgor in any case shall entitle any Pledgor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other
circumstances. 
 Section 11.6    Notices. Unless otherwise provided herein or in the Credit Agreement, any
notice or other communication herein required or permitted to be given shall be given in the manner and become effective as set forth in the Credit Agreement, as to any Pledgor, addressed to it at the address of the Borrower set forth in the Credit
Agreement and as to the Collateral Agent, addressed to it at the address set forth in the Credit Agreement, or in each case at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other party complying as to delivery
with the terms of this Section 11.6. 
 Section 11.7    Governing Law, Consent to
Jurisdiction and Service of Process; Waiver of Jury Trial. 
 (a)    THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES THAT WOULD REQUIRE THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT THE UCC PROVIDES THAT PERFECTION OF THE
SECURITY INTEREST HEREUNDER, OR REMEDIES HEREUNDER, IN RESPECT OF ANY PARTICULAR COLLATERAL ARE 

  
 40 

 
GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF A JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF NEW YORK, IN WHICH CASE THE LAWS OF SUCH JURISDICTION SHALL GOVERN WITH RESPECT TO THE PERFECTION OF THE SECURITY INTEREST IN, OR
THE REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO, SUCH PARTICULAR COLLATERAL. 
 (b)    EACH PLEDGOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY
SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT OF THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND ANY
APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, OR FOR RECOGNITION OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT, AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT ALL
CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH NEW YORK STATE COURT OR, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAWS, IN SUCH FEDERAL COURT. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY
SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY APPLICABLE LAWS. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR OTHERWISE SHALL AFFECT ANY
RIGHT THAT THE COLLATERAL AGENT, ANY OTHER AGENT, ANY LENDER OR OTHER SECURED PARTY MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AGAINST ANY PLEDGOR OR ITS PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY
JURISDICTION. 
 (c)    EACH PLEDGOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY
APPLICABLE LAWS, ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT IN ANY COURT REFERRED TO IN
SECTION 11.7(b). EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAWS, THE DEFENSE OF AN INCONVENIENT FORUM TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH
COURT. 
 (d)    EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING
ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES (OTHER THAN FACSIMILE TRANSMISSION OR ELECTRONIC MEANS AND DISREGARDING ANY PERSON TO WHOM SUCH NOTICE IS REQUIRED TO BE COPIED) IN
SECTION 11.6. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT WILL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAWS. 

(e)    EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAWS, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A
TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF 

  
 41 

 
OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS OR THE OTHER TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY
HERETO (i) 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
(ii) 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 11.7. 

Section 11.8    Severability of Provisions. Any provision hereof which is prohibited or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other
jurisdiction. 
 Section 11.9    Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement and any amendments, waivers,
consents or supplements hereto may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts together
shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile transmission or other electronic means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this
Agreement. 
 Section 11.10    Business Days. In the event any time period or any date provided in this
Agreement ends or falls on a day other than a Business Day, then such time period shall be deemed to end and such date shall be deemed to fall on the next succeeding Business Day, and performance herein may be made on such Business Day, with the
same force and effect as if made on such other day. 
 Section 11.11    Waiver of Stay. Each Pledgor
covenants that in the event that such Pledgor or any property or assets of such Pledgor shall hereafter become the subject of a voluntary or involuntary proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or such Pledgor shall otherwise be a party to any federal,
state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or similar proceeding to which the provisions relating to the automatic stay under Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision in any such Law is applicable, then, in any such
case, whether or not the Collateral Agent has commenced foreclosure proceedings under this Agreement, such Pledgor shall not, and each Pledgor hereby expressly waives its right to (to the extent it may lawfully do so) at any time insist upon, plead
or in any whatsoever, claim or take the benefit or advantage of any such automatic stay or such similar provision as it relates to the exercise of any of the rights and remedies (including any foreclosure proceedings) available to the Collateral
Agent as provided in this Agreement, in any other Security Document or any other document evidencing the Secured Obligations. Each Pledgor further covenants that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power granted herein to the
Collateral Agent, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no law relating to any stay or similar provision had been enacted. 

  
 42 

 Section 11.12    No Credit for Payment of Taxes or Imposition. No
Pledgor shall be entitled to any credit against the principal, premium, if any, or interest payable under the Credit Agreement, and such Pledgor shall not be entitled to any credit against any other sums which may become payable under the terms
thereof or hereof, by reason of the payment of any Tax on the Collateral or any part thereof. 

Section 11.13    No Claims Against Collateral Agent. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall constitute any
consent or request by the Collateral Agent, express or implied, for the performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in respect of the Collateral or any part thereof, nor as giving any Pledgor any right,
power or authority to contract for or permit the performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in such fashion as would permit the making of any claim against the Collateral Agent in respect thereof or any
claim that any Lien based on the performance of such labor or services or the furnishing of any such materials or other property is prior to the Lien hereof. 

Section 11.14    No Release. Nothing set forth in this Agreement shall relieve any Pledgor from the
performance of any term, covenant, condition or agreement on such Pledgor’s part to be performed or observed under or in respect of any of the Collateral or from any liability to any Person under or in respect of any of the Collateral or shall
impose any obligation on the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to perform or observe any such term, covenant, condition or agreement on such Pledgor’s part to be so performed or observed or shall impose any liability on the Collateral
Agent or any other Secured Party for any act or omission on the part of such Pledgor relating thereto or for any breach of any representation or warranty on the part of such Pledgor contained in this Agreement, the Credit Agreement or the other Loan
Documents, or under or in respect of the Collateral or made in connection herewith or therewith. The obligations of each Pledgor contained in this Section 11.14 shall survive the termination and release of the Liens
hereunder and the discharge of such Pledgor’s other obligations under this Agreement, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 

Section 11.15    Overdue Amounts. Until paid, all amounts due and payable under this Agreement shall
constitute Secured Obligations and shall bear interest, whether before or after judgment, at the Default Rate. 

Section 11.16    Obligations Absolute. All obligations of each Pledgor hereunder shall be absolute and
unconditional irrespective of: 
 (i)    any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment,
composition, liquidation or the like of any Pledgor; 
 (ii)    any lack of validity or enforceability of any Loan

Ladies and Gentlemen: 
 Reference is made to
that certain Security Agreement dated as of May 22, 2017 (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Security Agreement;” capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein
shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Security Agreement), among Blucora, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), the Subsidiaries of the Borrower from time to time party thereto and Credit Suisse AG, Cayman
Islands Branch, in its capacity as collateral agent pursuant to the Credit Agreement, as pledgee, assignee and secured party (in such capacities and together with any successors, the “Collateral Agent”). 

This joinder agreement supplements the Security Agreement and is delivered by the undersigned,
[                    ] (the “New Pledgor”), pursuant to Section 3.5 of the Security Agreement. The
New Pledgor hereby agrees to be bound as a Subsidiary Guarantor and as a Pledgor by all of the terms, covenants and conditions set forth in the Security Agreement to the same extent that it would have been bound if it had been a signatory to the
Security Agreement on the execution date of the Security Agreement. The New Pledgor also hereby agrees to be bound as a party by all of the terms, covenants and conditions applicable to it set forth in the Credit Agreement and the other Loan
Documents to the same extent that it would have been bound if it had been a signatory to the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents on the execution date or dates of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the New Pledgor hereby grants and pledges to the Collateral Agent, as collateral security for the full, prompt and complete payment and performance when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of
the Secured Obligations, a Lien on and security interest in, all of its right, title and interest in, to and under the Collateral and expressly assumes all obligations and liabilities of a Subsidiary Guarantor under the Credit Agreement and the
other Loan Documents and a Pledgor under the Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The New Pledgor hereby makes each of the representations and warranties and agrees to each of the covenants applicable to (i) the Pledgors contained
in the Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (ii) the Subsidiary Guarantors under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 

  
 Joinder Agreement Page 1 of 3 

 Annexed hereto are (i) a supplement to the Perfection Certificate and (ii) supplements
to each of the Schedules to the Security Agreement and the Credit Agreement, as applicable, with respect to the New Pledgor. Such supplements shall be deemed to be part of the Security Agreement or the Credit Agreement, as applicable. 

This joinder agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements hereto may be executed in any number of counterparts and by
different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of
this joinder agreement by facsimile transmission or other electronic means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this joinder agreement. 

THIS JOINDER AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

 SECURITIES ACCOUNT
CONTROL AGREEMENT 
 This SECURITIES ACCOUNT CONTROL AGREEMENT (this “Control Agreement”), dated as of
[                    ] by and among
[                    ], a
[                    ]
[                    ] (the “Pledgor”)1, Credit Suisse AG, Cayman
Islands Branch (the “Collateral Agent”) and [                    ] in its capacity as a “securities intermediary”
(as defined in Section 8-102 of the UCC) (the “Financial Institution”), is delivered pursuant to (i) that certain Credit Agreement dated as of May 22, 2017 (as amended, amended
and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”) among Blucora, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), the Subsidiary Guarantors party thereto, the Lenders from
time to time party thereto, the Collateral Agent and the other Agents party thereto and (ii) the Security Agreement. This Control Agreement is for the purpose of perfecting the security interests of the Secured Parties granted by the Pledgor in
the Designated Accounts (as defined below). All references herein to the “UCC” means the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect from time to time in the State of New York. Terms used but not defined herein that are defined in the Credit
Agreement have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement. 
 1.    Confirmation of Establishment
and Maintenance of Designated Account. The Financial Institution hereby confirms that (i) the Financial Institution has established for the Pledgor and maintains the account(s) listed on Schedule 1 hereto (such
account(s), together with each such other account maintained by the Pledgor with the Financial Institution collectively, the “Designated Accounts” and each a “Designated Account”), and (ii) each Designated
Account is a “securities account” as such term is defined in Article 8 of the UCC. 

2.    Control. The Collateral Agent shall at all times have “control” (as defined in Section 8-106 of the UCC) of any Designated Account; provided that, unless and until delivery by the Collateral Agent of Notice of Sole Control pursuant to Section 7(i) hereof to the Financial
Institution occurs, the Pledgor shall have the right from time to time to write checks against and make withdrawals from and transfers of amounts in the Designated Accounts. From and after delivery by the Collateral Agent of Notice of Sole Control
pursuant to Section 7(i) hereof to the Financial Institution until such time as the Collateral Agent delivers written notice to the Financial Institution rescinding such Notice of Sole Control (such period, the “Activation
Period”), the Financial Institution shall comply solely with entitlement orders (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(8) of the UCC) and instructions originated by the Collateral Agent without further
consent of the Pledgor or any Person or entity acting or purporting to act for the Pledgor being required, including, without limitation, directing disposition of the financial assets in each Designated Account. Prior to and after the end of any
Activation Period, the Financial Institution shall be entitled to honor the Pledgor’s instructions and directions with respect to any transfer or withdrawal of financial assets from the Designated Accounts. 

3.    Subordination of Lien; Waiver of Set-Off. In the event that the
Financial Institution has or subsequently obtains by agreement, operation of law or otherwise a security 
  

	1. 	 Insert applicable Loan Party. 

  
 Securities Account Control Agreement
Page 1 

 
interest in any Designated Account, the Financial Institution hereby agrees that such security interest shall be subordinate to that of the Secured Parties. The financial assets credited to any
Designated Account will not be subject to deduction, set-off, banker’s lien, or any other right in favor of any Person or entity other than the Secured Parties (except that the Financial Institution may
set off (i) all amounts due to the Financial Institution in respect of its customary fees and expenses for the routine maintenance and operation of the Designated Accounts, including overdraft fees, and (ii) the face amount of any checks
or other items which have been credited to any Designated Account but are subsequently returned unpaid because of uncollected or insufficient funds). 

4.    Choice of Law. Both this Control Agreement and the Designated Account(s) shall be governed by the law of the
State of New York. Regardless of any provision in any other agreement, for purposes of the UCC, New York shall be deemed to be the “security intermediary’s jurisdiction” (within the meaning of
Section 8-110 of the UCC) and the Designated Account(s) shall be governed by the law of the State of New York. 

5.    Conflict with Other Agreements; Amendments. As of the date hereof, there are no other agreements entered into
between the Financial Institution and the Pledgor with respect to any Designated Account or any financial assets credited thereto (other than standard and customary documentation with respect to the establishment and maintenance of such Designated
Accounts). The Financial Institution and the Pledgor will not enter into any other agreement with respect to any Designated Account unless the Collateral Agent shall have received prior written notice thereof. The Financial Institution and the
Pledgor will not enter into any other agreement with respect to “control” of the Designated Accounts without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent acting in its sole discretion. In the event of any conflict with respect to
“control” over any Designated Account between this Control Agreement (or any portion hereof) and any other agreement now existing or hereafter entered into, the terms of this Control Agreement shall prevail. No amendment or modification of
this Control Agreement or waiver of any right hereunder shall be binding on any party hereto unless it is in writing and is signed by all the parties hereto. 

6.    Notice of Adverse Claims. Except for the claims and interest of the Secured Parties and of the Pledgor in the
Designated Account(s), the Financial Institution on the date hereof does not know of any claim to, or security interest in, any Designated Account or in any financial assets credited thereto and does not know of any claim that any Person or entity
other than the Collateral Agent has been given “control” of any Designated Account or any such financial assets. If any Person or entity asserts any lien, encumbrance or adverse claim (including any writ, garnishment, judgment, warrant of
attachment, execution or similar process and any claim of “control”) against any financial assets credited to any Designated Account, the Financial Institution will promptly notify the
Collateral Agent and the Pledgor thereof. 
 7.    Maintenance of Designated Accounts. In addition to, and not in
lieu of, the obligation of the Financial Institution agreed in Section 2 hereof, the Financial Institution agrees to maintain the Designated Accounts as follows: 

(i)    Notice of Sole Control. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of
Default, the Collateral Agent may deliver to the Financial 

  
 Securities Account Control Agreement
Page 2 

 
Institution a notice of sole control in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Notice of Sole Control”) with respect
to any Designated Account. If at any time the Collateral Agent delivers a Notice of Sole Control to the Financial Institution, the Financial Institution agrees that, after receipt of such notice, it will take all entitlement orders and other
instruction with respect to such Designated Account solely from the Collateral Agent. Without limiting the generality of the first sentence of this paragraph, upon receipt of a Notice of Sole Control, the Financial Institution shall follow all
instructions given by the Collateral Agent, including, without limitation, instructions for distribution or transfer of any financial assets in any Designated Account to be made to the Collateral Agent. No later than ten Business Days after such
Event of Default shall have ceased to exist in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall deliver written notice to the Financial Institution rescinding the applicable Notice of Sole Control. 

(ii)    Statements and Confirmations. The Financial Institution will promptly send copies of
all statements and other correspondence (excluding routine confirmations) concerning any Designated Account to each of the Pledgor and the Collateral Agent at the address set forth in Section 11 hereof. The Financial Institution will promptly
provide to the Collateral Agent and to the Pledgor, upon the Collateral Agent’s request therefor from time to time and, in any event as of the last Business Day of each calendar month, a statement of the cash balance and financial assets in
each Designated Account. 
 8.    Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Financial Institution.
The Financial Institution hereby makes the following representations, warranties and covenants: 

(i)    The Designated Accounts have been established as set forth in Section 1 hereof and each
Designated Account will be maintained in the manner set forth herein until termination of this Control Agreement. The Financial Institution shall not change the name or account number of any Designated Account without the prior written consent of
the Collateral Agent. 
 (ii)    The Financial Institution is a “securities intermediary,” as
such term is defined in Section 8-102 of the UCC. 

(iii)    All property credited to any Designated Account will be treated as “financial assets,”
as such term is defined in Section 8-102 of the UCC. 

(iv)    This Control Agreement is the valid and legally binding obligation of the Financial Institution,
enforceable against the Financial Institution 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. 
 (v)    The Financial
Institution has not entered into any agreement with any Person or entity pursuant to which it has agreed to comply with any entitlement orders or instructions with respect to any Designated Account other than the Collateral

  
 Securities Account Control Agreement
Page 3 

 
Agent. Until the termination of this Control Agreement, the Financial Institution will not, without the written approval of the Collateral Agent, enter into any agreement with any Person or
entity pursuant to which it agrees to comply with any orders or instructions of such Person with respect to any Designated Account. 

(vi)    The Financial Institution has not entered into any other agreement with the Pledgor or the
Collateral Agent purporting to limit or condition the obligation of the Financial Institution to comply with any orders or instructions with respect to any Designated Account as set forth in Section 2 hereof. 

9.    Indemnification of Financial Institution. The Pledgor and the Collateral Agent hereby agree that (a) the
Financial Institution is released from any and all liabilities to the Pledgor and the Collateral Agent arising from the terms of this Control Agreement and the Financial Institution’s compliance with the terms of this Control Agreement, except
to the extent that such liabilities arise from the Financial Institution’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, and (b) the Pledgor, its successors and assigns shall at all times indemnify and hold harmless the Financial Institution
from and against any and all claims, actions and suits of others arising out of the terms of this Control Agreement or the compliance of the Financial Institution with the terms hereof, except to the extent that such arises from the Financial
Institution’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, and from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, costs, claims, counsel fees and other expenses of every nature and character arising by reason of the same, until the
termination of this Control Agreement. 
 10.    Successors; Assignment. The terms of this Control Agreement
shall be binding upon, and shall inure to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assignees. 

11.    Notices. Any notice, request or other communication required or permitted to be given under this
Control Agreement shall be in writing and deemed to have been properly given when delivered in person, or when sent by facsimile transmission or other electronic means and electronic confirmation of error free receipt is received or two days after

Institution hereunder shall continue in effect until the termination of the security interests of the Secured Parties with respect to the Designated Account(s) and the Collateral Agent has notified the Financial Institution of such termination in
writing. 
 13.    Severability. If any term or provision set forth in this Control Agreement shall be invalid or

 EXHIBIT 5 

[Form of] 
 DEPOSIT ACCOUNT
CONTROL AGREEMENT 
 This DEPOSIT ACCOUNT CONTROL AGREEMENT (this “Control Agreement”), dated as of
[                    ] by and among
[                    ]1, a
[                    ]
[                    ] (the “Pledgor”), Credit Suisse AG, Cayman Islands Branch (the “Collateral Agent”) and
[                    ] in its capacity as a “bank” as defined in Section 9-102 of the
UCC (the “Financial Institution”), is delivered pursuant to (i) that certain Credit Agreement dated as of May 22, 2017 (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the
“Credit Agreement”), among Blucora, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), the Subsidiary Guarantors party thereto, the Lenders from time to time party thereto, the Collateral Agent and the other Agents
party thereto and (ii) the Security Agreement. This Control Agreement is for the purpose of perfecting the security interests of the Secured Parties granted by the Pledgor in the Designated Accounts (as defined below). All references herein to
the “UCC” mean the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect from time to time in the State of New York. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement. 

1.    Confirmation of Establishment and Maintenance of Designated Account. The Financial Institution hereby
confirms that (i) the Financial Institution has established for the Pledgor and maintains the deposit account(s) listed on Schedule 1 hereto (such deposit account(s), together with each such other deposit account
maintained by the Pledgor with the Financial Institution collectively, the “Designated Accounts” and each a “Designated Account”), and (ii) each Designated Account is a “deposit account” as such term
is defined in Article 9 of the UCC. 
 2.    Control. The Collateral Agent shall at all times have
“control” (as defined in Section 9-104 of the UCC) of any Designated Account; provided that unless and until delivery by the Collateral Agent of Notice of Sole Control pursuant to
Section 7(i) hereof to the Financial Institution occurs, the Pledgor shall have the right from time to time to write checks against and make withdrawals from and transfers of amounts in the Designated Accounts. From and after delivery by the
Collateral Agent of Notice of Sole Control pursuant to Section 7(i) hereof to the Financial Institution until such time as the Collateral Agent delivers written notice to the Financial Institution rescinding such Notice of Sole Control (such
period, the “Activation Period”), the Financial Institution shall comply solely with instructions originated by the Collateral Agent without further consent of the Pledgor or any Person or entity acting or purporting to act for the
Pledgor being required, including, without limitation, directing disposition of the funds in each Designated Account. Prior to and after the end of any Activation Period, the Financial Institution shall be entitled to honor the Pledgor’s
instructions and directions with respect to any transfer or withdrawal of funds from the Designated Accounts. 

3.    Subordination of Lien; Waiver of Set-Off. In the event that
the Financial Institution has or subsequently obtains by agreement, operation of law or otherwise a security 
  

	1. 	 Insert applicable Loan Party. 

  
 Deposit Account Control Agreement Page 1

 
interest in any Designated Account, the Financial Institution hereby agrees that such security interest shall be subordinate to that of the Secured Parties. The funds deposited into any
Designated Account will not be subject to deduction, set-off, banker’s lien, or any other right in favor of any Person or entity other than the Secured Parties (except that the Financial Institution may
set off (i) all amounts due to the Financial Institution in respect of its customary fees and expenses for the routine maintenance and operation of the Designated Accounts, including overdraft fees, and (ii) the face amount of any checks
or other items which have been credited to any Designated Account but are subsequently returned unpaid because of uncollected or insufficient funds). 

4.    Choice of Law. Both this Control Agreement and the Designated Account(s) shall be governed by the law
of the State of New York. Regardless of any provision in any other agreement, for purposes of the UCC, New York shall be deemed to be the “bank’s jurisdiction” (within the meaning of
Section 9-304 of the UCC) and the Designated Account(s) shall be governed by the law of the State of New York. 

5.    Conflict with Other Agreements; Amendments. As of the date hereof, there are no other agreements entered into
between the Financial Institution and the Pledgor with respect to any Designated Account or any funds credited thereto (other than standard and customary documentation with respect to the establishment and maintenance of such Designated Accounts).
The Financial Institution and the Pledgor will not enter into any other agreement with respect to any Designated Account unless the Collateral Agent shall have received prior written notice thereof. The Financial Institution and the Pledgor will not
enter into any other agreement with respect to “control” of the Designated Accounts without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent acting in its sole discretion. In the event of any conflict with respect to “control”
over any Designated Account between this Control Agreement (or any portion hereof) and any other agreement now existing or hereafter entered into, the terms of this Control Agreement shall prevail. No amendment or modification of this Control
Agreement or waiver of any right hereunder shall be binding on any party hereto unless it is in writing and is signed by all the parties hereto. 

6.    Notice of Adverse Claims. Except for the claims and interest of the Secured Parties and of the Pledgor
in the Designated Account(s), the Financial Institution on the date hereof does not know of any claim to, or security interest in, any Designated Account or in any funds credited thereto and does not know of any claim that any Person or entity other
than the Collateral Agent has been given “control” of any Designated Account or any such funds. If any Person or entity asserts any lien, encumbrance or adverse claim (including any writ, garnishment, judgment, warrant of attachment,
execution or similar process and any claim of “control”) against any funds in any Designated Account, the Financial Institution will promptly notify the Collateral Agent and the Pledgor
thereof. 
 7.    Maintenance of Designated Accounts. In addition to, and not in lieu of, the obligation
of the Financial Institution agreed in Section 2 hereof, the Financial Institution agrees to maintain the Designated Accounts as follows: 

(i)    Notice of Sole Control. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of
Default, the Collateral Agent may deliver to the Financial 

  
 Deposit Account Control Agreement Page 2

 
Institution a notice of sole control in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Notice of Sole Control”) with respect
to any Designated Account. If at any time the Collateral Agent delivers a Notice of Sole Control to the Financial Institution, the Financial Institution agrees that, after receipt of such notice, it will take all instruction with respect to such
Designated Account solely from the Collateral Agent. Without limiting the generality of the first sentence of this paragraph, upon receipt of a Notice of Sole Control, the Financial Institution shall follow all instructions given by the Collateral
Agent, including, without limitation, instructions for distribution or transfer of any funds in any Designated Account to be made to the Collateral Agent. No later than ten Business Days after such Event of Default shall have ceased to exist in
accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall deliver written notice to the Financial Institution rescinding the applicable Notice of Sole Control. 

(ii)    Statements and Confirmations. The Financial Institution will promptly send copies of
all statements and other correspondence (excluding routine confirmations) concerning any Designated Account to each of the Pledgor and the Collateral Agent at the address set forth in Section 11 hereof. The Financial Institution will promptly
provide to the Collateral Agent and to the Pledgor, upon the Collateral Agent’s request therefore from time to time and, in any event as of the last Business Day of each calendar month, a statement of the cash balance in each Designated
Account. 
 8.    Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Financial Institution. The Financial
Institution hereby makes the following representations, warranties and covenants: 
 (i)    The
Designated Accounts have been established as set forth in Section 1 hereof and each Designated Account will be maintained in the manner set forth herein until termination of this Control Agreement. The Financial Institution shall not change the
name or account number of any Designated Account without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent. 

(ii)    The Financial Institution is a “bank,” as such term is defined in Section 9-102(a)(8) of the UCC. 
 (iii)    This Control Agreement
is the valid and legally binding obligation of the Financial Institution, enforceable against the Financial Institution 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. 

(iv)    The Financial Institution has not entered into any agreement with any other Person or entity
pursuant to which it has agreed to comply with any orders or instructions with respect to any Designated Account. Until the termination of this Control Agreement, the Financial Institution will not, without the written approval of the Collateral
Agent, enter into any agreement with any Person or entity pursuant to which it agrees to comply with any orders or instructions of such Person or entity with respect to any Designated Account. 

  
 Deposit Account Control Agreement Page 3

 (v)    The Financial Institution has not entered into any
other agreement with the Pledgor or the Collateral Agent purporting to limit or condition the obligation of the Financial Institution to comply with any orders or instructions with respect to any Designated Account as set forth in Section 2
hereof. 
 9.    Indemnification of Financial Institution. The Pledgor and the Collateral Agent hereby agree that
(a) the Financial Institution is released from any and all liabilities to the Pledgor and the Collateral Agent arising from the terms of this Control Agreement and the Financial Institution’s compliance with the terms of this Control
Agreement, except to the extent that such liabilities arise from the Financial Institution’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, and (b) the Pledgor, its successors and assigns shall at all times indemnify and hold harmless the
Financial Institution from and against any and all claims, actions and suits of others arising out of the terms of this Control Agreement or the compliance of the Financial Institution with the terms hereof, except to the extent that such arises
from the Financial Institution’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, and from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, costs, claims, counsel fees and other expenses of every nature and character arising by reason of the same,
until the termination of this Control Agreement. 
 10.    Successors; Assignment. The terms of this
Control Agreement shall be binding upon, and shall inure to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assignees. 

11.    Notices. Any notice, request or other communication required or permitted to be given under this
Control Agreement shall be in writing and deemed to have been properly given when delivered in person, or when sent by facsimile transmission or other electronic means and electronic confirmation of error free receipt is received or two days after

FORM OF INTERCOMPANY NOTE 

INTERCOMPANY SUBORDINATED DEMAND PROMISSORY NOTE 
  

			
	 Note Number: [    ]
	  	Dated: [            ], 2017

 FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the Borrower (as defined below) and each of the Subsidiaries of the Borrower
(collectively, the “Group Members” and each, a “Group Member”) that is a party to this intercompany subordinated demand promissory note (this “Promissory Note”) as a Payor (as defined below)
promises to pay to the order of such other Group Member that makes loans to such Group Member (each Group Member which borrows money pursuant to this Promissory Note is referred to herein as a “Payor” and each Group Member which
makes loans and advances pursuant to this Promissory Note is referred to herein as a “Payee”), on demand, in lawful money of the United States of America, in immediately available funds and at the appropriate office of the Payee,
the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all loans and advances heretofore and hereafter made by such Payee to such Payor and any other indebtedness now or hereafter owing by such Payor to such Payee as shown in the books and records of such Payee.
The failure to show any such indebtedness or any error in showing such Indebtedness shall not affect the obligations of any Payor hereunder. Unless otherwise defined herein, terms defined in the Credit Agreement (hereinafter defined) and used herein
shall have the meanings assigned to them in that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of May 22, 2017 (as amended, amended and restated, extended, supplemented, waived or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit
Agreement”), among Blucora, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), the other Loan Parties from time to time party thereto, the Lenders, Credit Suisse AG, Cayman Islands Branch, as Administrative Agent and Collateral
Agent for the Lenders. 
 The unpaid principal amount hereof from time to time outstanding shall bear interest at a rate equal to the rate
as may be agreed upon in writing from time to time by the relevant Payor and Payee. Each Payor and any endorser of this Promissory Note hereby waives presentment, demand, protest and notice of any kind. No failure to exercise, and no delay in
exercising, any rights hereunder on the part of the holder hereof shall operate as a waiver of such rights. 
 This Promissory Note has been
pledged by each Payee that is a Loan Party to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, as security for such Payee’s Secured Obligations under the Credit Agreement, the Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents to
which such Payee is a party. Each Payor acknowledges and agrees that, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties may exercise all the rights of the Payees that are Loan
Parties under this Promissory Note in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement, the Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents and will not be subject to any abatement, reduction, recoupment, defense, setoff or
counterclaim available to such Payor. 
 Each Payee agrees that any and all claims of such Payee against any Payor that is a Loan Party or
any endorser of the obligations of any Payor that is a Loan Party under this Promissory Note, or against any of their respective properties, shall be subordinated in right of payment to the Secured Obligations until all of the Secured Obligations
have been performed and paid in full in immediately available funds, all Letters of Credit have been terminated, cash collateralized or backstopped in accordance with the Credit Agreement and the Commitments have been terminated; provided
that each Payor may make payments to the applicable Payee so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. Notwithstanding any right of any Payee to ask, demand, sue for, take or receive any payment from any Payor,
all rights, Liens and security interests of such Payee, whether now or hereafter arising and howsoever existing, in any assets of any Payor that is a Loan Party (whether constituting part of the security or collateral given to the Collateral Agent
or any Secured Party to secure payment of all or any part of the Secured Obligations or otherwise) shall be and hereby are subordinated to the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party in such assets. Except as expressly permitted by
the Credit Agreement, the Payees shall have no right to possession of any such asset or to foreclose upon, or exercise any other remedy in respect of, any such asset, whether by judicial action or otherwise, unless and until all of the Secured
Obligations shall have been performed and paid in full in immediately available funds, all Letters of Credit have been terminated, cash collateralized or backstopped in accordance with the Credit Agreement and the Commitments under the Credit
Agreement have been terminated. 

  
 F - 1 

 This Promissory Note shall be binding upon each Payor and its successors and assigns, and the
terms and provisions of this Promissory Note shall inure to the benefit of each Payee and their respective successors and assigns, including subsequent holders hereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in any other Loan
Document or in any other promissory note or other instrument, this Promissory Note (i) replaces and supersedes any and all promissory notes or other instruments which create or evidence any loans or advances made on or before the date hereof by
any Payee to any other Group Member, and (ii) shall not be deemed replaced, superseded or in any way modified by any promissory note or other instrument entered into on or after the date hereof which purports to create or evidence any loan or
advance by any Payee to any other Group Member. 
 THIS PROMISSORY NOTE AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS
PROMISSORY NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES THAT WOULD REQUIRE THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION.

 The terms and provisions of this Promissory Note are severable, and if any term or provision shall be determined to be superseded,
illegal, invalid or otherwise unenforceable in whole or in part pursuant to applicable Laws by a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction, such determination shall not in any manner impair or otherwise affect the validity, legality or
enforceability of that term or provision in any other jurisdiction or any of the remaining terms and provisions of this Promissory Note in any jurisdiction. 

From time to time after the date hereof, additional Subsidiaries of the Borrower may become parties hereto (as Payor and/or Payee, as the case
may be) by executing a counterpart signature page to this Promissory Note (each additional Subsidiary, an “Additional Party”). Upon delivery of such counterpart signature page to the Payees, notice of which is hereby waived by the
other Payors, each Additional Party shall be a Payor and/or a Payee, as the case may be, and shall be as fully a party hereto as if such Additional Party were an original signatory hereof. Each Payor expressly agrees that its obligations arising
hereunder shall not be affected or diminished by the addition or release of any other Payor or Payee hereunder. This Promissory Note shall be fully effective as to any Payor or Payee that is or becomes a party hereto regardless of whether any other
person becomes or fails to become or ceases to be a Payor or Payee hereunder. 
 This Promissory Note may be executed in any number of
counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart
of this Promissory Note by telecopy or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Promissory Note. 

  
 F - 2 

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each Payor and Payee has caused this Intercompany Subordinated Demand
Promissory Note to be executed and delivered by its proper and duly authorized officer as of the date set forth above.
