 ARTICLE II 
 PREMISES 
  
 Section 2.1 - Leased Premises 
  
 Landlord is the owner of the real estate consisting of a one-story
office/service center building located in the development designated in the Schedule. That portion of the Building consisting of the Leased Premises set forth in the Schedule and containing the Rentable Area designated therein is crosshatched on the
plan attached hereto as Exhibit A. Those portions of the real estate which Landlord from time to time deems advisable to be made available for the common use of tenants or occupants of the Project (as defined below), or portions thereof, are
sometimes collectively called the “Common Areas.” The real estate, the Building and the other improvements located thereon are sometimes collectively called the “Project.” 
  
 Section 2.2 - Common Areas and Use Thereof 
  
 Tenant and Tenant’s officers, employees, agents, licensees and invitees
shall have the non-exclusive right, in common with Landlord and all tenants and occupants of the Project or portions thereof and all others to whom Landlord has or may hereafter grant such right, to use the Common Areas as designated from time to
time by Landlord subject to such reasonable regulations as Landlord may from time to time impose including the designation of specific times during which the Common Areas may be utilized and the designation of specific areas in which trucks,
automobiles and/or other vehicles may be parked and in which materials, including trash and other debris, may be left or stored. Tenant hereby authorizes Landlord to remove by whatever means Landlord deems expedient any truck, automobile or other
vehicle parked and/or materials located on the Land outside the areas designated therefor. Tenant further agrees upon demand to reimburse Landlord for the cost to Landlord of each such removal attributable to Tenant and agrees to indemnify and hold
Landlord harmless with respect thereto. The location of Tenant’s designated parking area is delineated on Exhibit A-2 attached hereto and made a part hereof. 
  
 Tenant agrees to abide by all reasonable regulations respecting the use of the Common Areas adopted from time to time by
Landlord during the term of this Lease and agrees to cause 

  

 3 

 
Tenant’s officers, employees, agents, licensees and invitees to conform thereto. Landlord, upon such advance notice, if any, as is reasonable under the
circumstances, may at any time temporarily close the Common Areas or any portion or portions thereof to make repairs or changes therein, to prevent the acquisition of public rights therein, or to discourage use or parking not in conformity with
Landlord’s regulations and may do such other acts in and to the Common Areas as in Landlord’s judgment may be desirable to improve the convenience thereof. Such repairs, changes and acts shall be performed in such reasonable manner as
will, to the extent practical, minimize interference with the conduct of Tenant’s operations. Tenant, upon request shall furnish to Landlord the license number and description of each automobile and other vehicle operated in and around the
Project by Tenant and Tenant’s officers and employees. Tenant shall not at any time interfere with the rights of Landlord, its beneficiaries and/or other tenants or occupants of the Project, its and their officers, employees, agents, licensees
and invitees to use any part of the Common Areas. 
  
 Section 2.3 -
Reservations 
  
 Landlord, upon such advance notice, if any,
as may be reasonable under the circumstances, reserves the right to construct, operate, maintain, test, enlarge, change, repair and replace within the Leased Premises and Project such sewers, pipes, drains, conduits, wires, cables, structural
members and the like as may be deemed necessary by Landlord to provide service to Landlord, Tenant, other tenants or occupants of the Building or Project or to fulfill Landlord’s duties under this Lease or under any other lease of a portion of
the Building or Project. Landlord shall have access to the Leased Premises at all times in the case of an emergency and otherwise at such times as do not materially and adversely disturb the conduct of Tenant’s operations for the exercise of
the foregoing reserved rights and no such exercise shall operate as an eviction thereunder. 
  
 Landlord reserves the right to perform any future development within the Project. Landlord shall have the right to make any reasonable and appropriate changes to the Common Areas and Tenant’s Proportionate Share
to accommodate any such future development.

 ARTICLE VI 
 USE AND CONDITION OF LEASED PREMISES; QUIET ENJOYMENT 
  
 Section 6.1 - Use 
  
 Tenant shall use the Leased Premises solely for the Permitted Uses set forth in the Schedule and for no other use or purpose whatsoever.

Premises or Common Areas, nor commit any nuisance, nor unreasonably annoy other tenants in the Building or in the Project or owners or occupants of neighboring property, nor install or use any sign or other advertising device on the exterior of the
Leased Premises other than signs complying with the provisions of Section 6.4, nor use or permit the use of any portion of the Leased Premises as living quarters, sleeping apartments or lodging rooms. Tenant shall not use the Leased Premises or the
Common Areas for any purpose or in any manner nor keep, use, or store therein any hazardous substance or chemical or any inflammable or explosive liquid or material if (a) will 

  

 6 

 
suspend, void or make inoperative any policy or policies of insurance carried by Landlord or Tenant on any improvement which is part of the Project or on any
business thereon or on any property of Landlord, Tenant or others therein or (b) will increase the insurance rating of any such improvement or will increase the cost of any of Landlord’s insurance. 
  
 Section 6.2 - Compliance With Law 
  
 Tenant shall at its sole cost and expense comply or cause compliance with
all present and future laws, ordinances and regulations of duly constituted public authorities now or hereafter in any manner affecting the Leased Premises, the Common Areas, the Project, the sidewalks adjacent thereto or any buildings thereon or
the use thereof, whether or not any such laws, ordinances or regulations which may be hereafter enacted involve a change of policy on the part of the governmental authority enacting the same and Tenant shall promptly remove or cure at Tenant’s
sole cost and expense any violation of any of said laws, ordinances and regulations. Tenant shall not permit any unlawful occupation, business or trade to be conducted on the Leased Premises or any use to be made thereof contrary to any law,
ordinance or regulation. Tenant shall be entitled to such opportunity as is reasonable under all circumstances to contest the validity of any such law, ordinance or regulation adversely affecting Tenant’s use of the Leased Premises. Tenant,
however, shall hold Landlord financially harmless and indemnify and defend Landlord from and against the consequences of any violation of any such law, ordinance or regulation, whether financial or otherwise. If any alterations, repairs or other
work shall be required by Tenant to satisfy its obligations hereunder then same shall be in compliance with the Article IX of the Lease. If Tenant shall fail to satisfy its obligations under this Section 6.2, Landlord may take any steps or action
and undertake and perform any work required of the Tenant under this Section 6.2, but shall not be required to do so and the cost thereof shall be paid by Tenant as provided in Section 3.3(c). 
  
 Section 6.3 - Condition of Leased Premises 
  
 Tenant has examined and knows the condition of the Leased Premises
(excepting any uncompleted work as Landlord may be obligated to construct hereunder) and acknowledges that no representation as to the condition and repair thereof has been made by or on behalf of Landlord prior to or at the execution of this Lease
that is not herein expressed. Tenant agrees to take good care of the Leased Premises, the Common Areas and the Project and, subject to the provisions of this Lease, at the termination of this Lease, by lapse of time or otherwise, shall deliver the
Leased Premises to Landlord in the same condition and repair as when delivered to Tenant at the commencement of the Term, loss by fire or other insured casualty and ordinary wear and tear excepted. 
  
 Section 6.4 - Signs: Exterior Windows 
  
 Tenant shall not install, paint or place nor permit the installation,
painting or placement of any signs or other advertising media, any window ventilation, any air conditioners, any awnings, any aerials or the like within the Leased Premises, the Building or the Project without the prior written consent of Landlord.
Landlord reserves the right to designate the type, composition and color of all window coverings visible from the outside of the Building and the dimensions and other requirements of any sign which Landlord may authorize Tenant to install on the
Leased 

  

 7 

 
Premises or the Property. The cost of Tenant’s signs, the installation thereof and all governmental permits therefor, including renewals, shall be paid
by Tenant. Landlord shall perform all maintenance of Tenant’s signs during the Term and the entire cost thereof shall be paid by Tenant as Additional Rent. 
  

Section 6.5 - Quiet Enjoyment 
  
 Provided that Tenant shall pay all Base Rent, Additional Rent and other charges for which Tenant is liable and keeps and observes all covenants and
conditions of this Lease, Tenant shall have the peaceful and quiet enjoyment of the Leased Premises without hindrance on the part of Landlord and Landlord shall warrant and defend Tenant in such peaceful and quiet enjoyment of the Leased Premises
against the lawful claims of all persons claiming by, through or under Landlord, but Landlord shall not be liable for any breach of the above covenants occurring subsequent to the transfer of title of the Project, as those responsibilities would
pass to the new landlord. 
  
 Section 6.6 - Encumbrances 
  
 Tenant shall not do any act or suffer or permit any action to be taken which
shall in any way encumber the Leased Premises, the Building or the Project, nor shall the interest or estate of Landlord in the Leased Premises, the Building or the Project be in any way subject to any claim by way of lien or encumbrance, whether by
operation of law or by virtue of any express or implied contract by Tenant. Any claim to, or lien upon, the Leased Premises, the Building or the Project arising from any act or omission of Tenant shall accrue only against the leasehold estate of
Tenant and shall be subject and subordinate to the paramount title and rights of Landlord in and to the Leased Premises, the Building and the Project. 
  
 ARTICLE VII

COSTS 
  
 Section 7.1 - Taxes

based upon the ownership, leasing, renting or operating of the Project. Taxes include, without limitation, real estate taxes, personal property taxes, sewer rents, water rents, assessments (special or otherwise), transit taxes, any tax or excise or
rent or any other tax (however described) on account of rental received for use and occupancy of any or all of the Project, whether any such taxes are imposed by the United States, the state, any local governmental municipality, county or authority
or agency, or any other political subdivision of any thereof. Taxes shall also include all reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, legal fees and court costs) charged for the protest or the reduction of any of the aforesaid
taxes, whether such protest or reduction is ultimately successful or not. Upon the request of Landlord, Tenant will cooperate with Landlord and will execute any document which may be reasonably necessary and proper for any such protest or contest
proceeding. Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, to withhold the payment of any Taxes, in connection with any such protest or contest. 
  
 If at any time during the Term, a tax or excise on rents or income or other tax however described (herein called “Rent Tax”) is levied or
assessed by the State of Illinois, or any political 

  

 8 

 
subdivision thereof or other governmental authority, on account of the rents hereunder or the interest of Landlord (or of Landlord’s beneficiaries)
under this Lease, and if such Rent Tax is in lieu of, in addition to or as a substitute for, in whole or in part, real estate taxes or other ad valorem taxes, such Rent Tax shall constitute and be included in Taxes, provided further, in no
event shall Tenant be obligated (a) to pay for any year any greater amount by way of personal property tax replacement income tax or such Rent Tax than would have been payable by Tenant had the rentals paid to Landlord under all Project leases
(being the rentals upon which such taxes are imposed) been the sole taxable income of Landlord (or Landlord’s beneficiaries) for the year in question or (b) to pay or to reimburse Landlord for any tax of any kind assessed against Landlord or
Landlord’s beneficiaries) on account of any such Rent Tax having been reimbursed. 
  
 Tenant’s pro rata share of all Taxes during the Term hereof shall be paid in monthly installments on or before the first day of each calendar month during the Term, in advance, in an amount estimated in writing
by Landlord. Upon receipt of all tax bills and assessment bills attributable to any calendar year during the Term, Landlord shall furnish Tenant with a written statement of the actual amount of Tenant’s pro rata share of the taxes and
assessments for such year. If the total amount paid by Tenant under this Article for any calendar year during the Term of this Lease shall be less than the actual amount due from Tenant for such year as shown on such statement, Tenant shall pay to
Landlord the difference between the amount paid by Tenant and the actual amount due; such deficiency to be paid within ten (10) days after demand therefor by Landlord; and if the total amount paid by Tenant hereunder for any such calendar year shall
exceed such actual amount due from Tenant for such calendar year, such excess shall be credited against payments hereunder next due, or, if no payments are next due, refunded by Landlord. All amounts due hereunder shall be payable in the manner and
at such place as the rent payments provided for herein. Landlord’s and Tenant’s obligations under this Article shall survive the expiration of the Term. 
  
 Taxes shall not include any net income, capital, stock, succession, transfer, franchise, gift, estate or inheritance taxes.

  
 Section 7.2 - Operating Costs 
  
 As used in this Lease the term “Operating Costs” shall mean and
refer to all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind and nature, paid or incurred by Landlord during the Term in operating, insuring, managing, equipping, policing, protecting, heating, cooling, lighting, repairing, replacing and maintaining the
Leased Premises, the Building and the Project including periodic maintenance and repair of the exterior, roof, structural elements and mechanical systems of the Leased Premises, the Building and the Project, including the cost of any maintenance
contracts for HVAC units and for other mechanical systems and including the replacement of components of HVAC units (but not entire units) and of the mechanical systems thereof and the cost of insurance in such amounts and against such risks as
Landlord shall reasonably require (including, without limitation, casualty, comprehensive, general liability, catastrophic, excess single limit liability and rent insurance); provided, however, that Operating Costs shall not include the following:
(a) costs of alterations of any tenant’s premises, except for repairs to the Project or capital improvements otherwise includable in Operating Costs; (b) principal and interest payments on loans secured by mortgages or trust deeds encumbering
the Project or the leasehold; (c) costs of capital improvements, except that Operating Costs shall include the cost 

  

 9 

 
during the Term, as reasonably amortized by Landlord with interest at then current rates for construction financing on the unamortized amount, of all capital
improvements made during the Term which reduce or are intended to reduce any of the costs included within Operating Costs; (d) costs for which Landlord receives direct reimbursement from tenants of the Project other than by reason of operating cost
clauses; (e) brokerage and leasing commissions, advertising and marketing costs and other expenses incurred solely to locate new tenants for the Project; (f) depreciation charges; (g) rental payments due under any ground lease; (h) wages and
salaries of executive personnel above the level of “building manager”; (i) costs of financing or refinancing; (j) any sums paid to a person, corporation, partnership or other legal entity related to Landlord or its beneficiaries (including
partners of such beneficiaries) which exceed normal and competitive rates for the services or goods in question; or (k) costs and expenses for which Landlord is solely responsible in Section 9.2. 
  
 If during all or any portion of any calendar year the Project is not fully
rented and occupied, Landlord may elect to make an appropriate adjustment of Operating Costs for such calendar year, employing sound accounting and management principles, to determine the Operating Costs that would have been paid or incurred by
Landlord had the Project been fully entered and occupied for the entire calendar year and the amount so determined shall be deemed to have been the Operating Costs for such calendar year. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary,
the provisions of this paragraph with respect to adjustment of Operating Costs for vacancy shall apply only to Operating Costs which are variable and which increase as occupancy in the Project increases and shall not apply to any Operating Costs
which do not vary with the amount of occupancy in the Project. 
  
 Section 7.3
- Payments of Additional Rent 
  
 Tenant shall pay
Tenant’s Proportionate Share of Taxes and of Operating Costs as Additional Rent to Landlord in the manner hereafter provided. 
  
 (a) Tenant shall make payments (a “Tax and Expense Adjustment”) on account of the Taxes and of Operating Costs (any such payment with respect to
a particular calendar year being also called an “Additional Rent Progress Payment”) effective as of the first day of the Term and the first day of each January thereafter falling within the Term (an “Adjustment Date”) for each
calendar year during which an Adjustment Date falls as follows: 
  

	 	(i)	Landlord may, and from time to time during the calendar year in which such Adjustment Date falls, deliver to Tenant a written notice or notices (a “Projection Notice”)
setting forth, (A) Landlord’s reasonable estimates, forecasts or projections (collectively, the “Projections”) of Taxes and of Operating Costs for such calendar year based on Landlord’s budgets and reasonable projections of
Operating Costs and reasonable estimates of Taxes, and (B) Tenant’s Additional Rent Progress Payment for such calendar year based upon the Projections. Landlord’s budget of Operating Costs and the Projections based thereon may assume
ninety-five percent (95%) occupancy and use of the Project and may be reasonably revised by Landlord from time to time based on changes in assessed valuations and tax rates and on other criteria which are components of budget items.

  

 10 

	 	(ii)	Until such time as Landlord furnishes a Projection Notice to Tenant for a calendar year, Tenant shall pay to Landlord a monthly installment of the Additional Rent Progress Payment
at the time of each payment of Base Rent in an amount equal to one-twelfth of Tenant’s current Tax and Expense Adjustment. On or before the first day of each month thereafter, Tenant shall pay to Landlord one-twelfth of the Additional Rent
Progress Payment shown in the Projection Notice. Within thirty (30) days following Landlord’s service of a Projection Notice to Tenant, Tenant shall also pay Landlord a lump sum equal to the Additional Rent Progress Payment shown in the
Projection Notice less (A) any previous payments on account of Additional Rent Progress Payments made during such calendar year and (B) monthly installments on account of Additional Rent Progress Payments shown in the Projection Notice due for the
remainder of such calendar year. 

  

	 	(iii)	Tenant agrees to pay monthly installments of Additional Rent Progress Payments in the amount set forth in an initial Projection Notice from and after the Commencement Date until any
component thereof is changed pursuant to a Projection Notice from Landlord as provided above. 

  
 (b) The following readjustments with regard to the Tax and Expense Adjustment shall be made by Landlord and Tenant: 
  

	 	(i)	Following the end of each calendar year and after Landlord shall have determined the amounts of Operating Costs to be used in calculating the Tax and Expense Adjustment for such
calendar year, Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing (“Landlord’s Statement”) of such Operating Costs for such calendar year. If the Tax and Expense Adjustment due for such calendar year exceeds the payments on account of the
Additional Rent Progress Payment made during such calendar year, then Tenant, within thirty (30) days after the date of Landlord’s Statement, shall pay to the Landlord the amount by which the Tax and Expense Adjustment exceeds the payments on
account of the Additional Rent Progress Payment made during such calendar year. If the payments on account of the Additional Rent Progress Payment made during such calendar year exceed the Tax and Expense Adjustment owed for such calendar year, then
Landlord shall credit such excess to the rentals next payable after the date of Landlord’s Statement, or may, at its option, credit such excess to any rentals then due and owing, until such excess has been exhausted. If this Lease shall expire
prior to full application of such excess, then Landlord shall pay to Tenant the balance thereof not previously applied against the rental and not reasonably required for payment of Additional Rent for the calendar year in which this Lease expires.

  

	 	(ii)	No interest or penalties shall accrue on any amounts which Landlord is obligated to credit or pay to Tenant by reason of this Section 7.3(b). 

  

 11 

 (c) With respect to any calendar year which does not fall entirely within the Term, Tenant shall be
obligated to pay as Additional Rent for such calendar year only a pro rata share of Additional Rent as hereinabove determined, based upon the number of days of the term of this Lease falling within the calendar year. Following expiration or
termination of this Lease, Tenant shall pay any Additional Rent due to the Landlord within fifteen (15) days after the date of Tenant’s receipt of Landlord’s Statement. Without limitation on other obligations of Tenant which shall survive
the expiration of the term of this Lease, the obligations of Tenant to pay Additional Rent provided for in this Section 7.3(c) shall survive the expiration or termination of this Lease. 
  
 Section 7.4 - Landlord’s Statement: Inspection of Records 
  
 Landlord shall cause to be kept books and records showing Operating Costs during each calendar year during the Term in
accordance with an appropriate system of accounts and accounting practices consistently maintained from year to year. Landlord shall deliver the Landlord’s Statement to Tenant as promptly as practical following the close of each calendar year.
The Landlord’s Statement shall certify the amount of Operating Costs for such calendar year and that the Landlord’s Statement has been prepared in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Lease and in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles. Tenant shall have the right to examine the Landlord’s books and records showing the Operating Costs at any time during normal business hours within forty-five (45) days following the receipt of each
Landlord’s Statement. Unless Tenant shall notify Landlord of its exception to any items in such Landlord’s Statement within such period, such Landlord’s Statement shall be deemed accepted by Tenant. Tenant shall not be entitled to
defer or withhold any payment of Additional Rent due pursuant to Section 3.3 pending the examination of Landlord’s books and records or the resolution of any dispute with respect thereto. 
  
 ARTICLE VIII

 12 

 (d) broad form, “all risk” business interruption or extra expense insurance; and 
  
 (e) such other insurance, in such amounts and against such risks, as may be
reasonably required by Landlord. 
  
 Tenant shall not obtain or
carry separate insurance concurrent in form or contributing in the event of loss with that required in this Section 8.2 to be furnished by Tenant unless Landlord and any other parties designated by Landlord are included therein as a named insured,
with loss payable as in this Lease provided. Tenant shall immediately notify Landlord whenever any such separate insurance is obtained and shall deliver to Landlord the policy or policies or certificates evidencing the same. 
  
 Section 8.2 - Form of Insurance 
  
 All insurance required to be carried by Tenant hereunder shall be in
companies and in form, substance and amount satisfactory from time to time to Landlord and any mortgagee of Landlord. Policies of insurance required of Tenant and Landlord under this Lease shall be carried with companies rated by Best Insurance
Reports not lower than “B” and shall be in standard forms. Insurance policies described in Section 8.1(a) and (d) shall name Landlord and any other party designated by Landlord as an additional insured and insurance policies described in
Section 8.1(c) shall contain waivers of subrogation against Landlord and any such other party and expressly permit waiver of claims prior to a loss as provided in Section 8.4 hereof. No insurance policies described in Section 8.1 shall be subject to
cancellation except after at least thirty (30) days’ prior notice to Landlord and to any mortgagee of Landlord. The original insurance policies (or certificates thereof satisfactory to Landlord), together with satisfactory evidence of payment
of the premiums thereon, shall be deposited with Landlord on the Commencement Date and renewals thereof shall be deposited with Landlord not less than thirty (30) days prior to the end of the term of each such coverage. 
  
 Section 8.3 - Fire Protection

 Section 8.4 - Mutual Waiver of Claims
and Subrogation Rights

provision of this Lease to the contrary, whenever (a) any loss, cost, damage or expense resulting from fire, explosion or any other casualty or occurrence is incurred by either Landlord or Tenant or by anyone claiming by, through, or under Landlord
or Tenant in connection with the Leased Premises, and (b) such party is then covered in whole or in part by insurance with respect to such loss, cost, damage or expense or is required under this Lease to be so insured, then the party so insured (or
so required) hereby waives any claims against and releases the other party from any liability said other party may have on account of 

  

 13 

 
such loss, cost, damage or expense to the extent of any amount recovered by reason of such insurance (or which could have been recovered had such insurance
been carried as so required); provided that such waiver of claims or release of liability shall not be operative in any case where the effect thereof is to invalidate such insurance coverage or increase the cost thereof (except that in the case of
increased cost, the other party shall have the right, within thirty (30) days following written notice, to pay such increased cost, thereby keeping such release or waiver in full force and effect). If either party at any time is unable to procure or
retain such waivers of subrogation in its insurance policies, then such party shall promptly notify the other party and the other party shall be released from any obligation to have such waivers in its policies of insurance.

 Tenant shall make no alteration in or addition to the Leased Premises nor permit the making of any hole or in the walls, partitions, ceilings or floors thereof without on each occasion obtaining the prior written consent of Landlord. The
construction and installation of any permitted alteration or addition shall be performed in a good and workmanlike manner and pursuant to plans and specifications and utilizing contractors approved by Landlord, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld. Upon completion of any such alterations or additions, Tenant shall provide Landlord with such documents and/or “as built” working drawings as Landlord may reasonably request. Any alteration and/or addition made by
Tenant in or to the Leased Premises, whether or not made with the consent of Landlord, shall remain on the Leased Premises and without compensation to Tenant shall become the property of Landlord upon the termination of this Lease by lapse of time
or otherwise; provided, however, that if Landlord so elects by written notice to Tenant delivered at least thirty (30) days prior to the end of the Term, Tenant shall remove all such alterations and/or additions and restore the Leased Premises to a
condition comparable to that existing at the time such alterations and/or additions were made. Nothing herein contained shall prevent the installation of Tenant’s trade fixtures in the Leased Premises, provided that such trade fixtures can be
installed and removed upon termination of this Lease without structural damage to the Leased Premises and provided that Tenant shall remove all such trade fixtures and restore the Leased Premises to a condition comparable to that existing at the
time such installation was made. Tenant shall make all alterations and additions to the Leased Premises as are required by governmental authority and which arise by reason of Tenant’s use of the Leased Premises and all alterations and additions
which are made necessary by the act or neglect of Tenant, its agents, employees and invitees. 
  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant may paint, re-carpet and make other minor non-structural decorative additions or alterations the Leased Premises without Landlord’s prior approval.

not such work was performed or materials furnished with the consent of Landlord. Tenant, however, may contest the validity of any such lien or claim provided that Tenant shall deposit with Landlord a cash deposit of at least 150% of such lien or
claim (or such other security as Landlord shall reasonably require) and shall take all steps which may be reasonably required to prevent any sale, foreclosure or forfeiture of the Leased Premises, the Building or the Project by reason of nonpayment,
and shall diligently prosecute the defense thereof. Upon a final determination of the validity of any such lien or claim, Tenant shall immediately pay any judgment or decree rendered, with all proper costs and charges, and shall cause any such lien
to be released of record without cost to Landlord. If Tenant, in Landlord’s opinion, shall fail or cease to diligently prosecute such action or if Tenant shall fail to pay any judgment or decree rendered (including all interest, penalties,
costs, charges and Landlord’s expenses, including court costs and attorneys’ fees), Landlord may pay the entire amount of such claim or lien, or such judgment or decree rendered and other amounts set forth above, out of such deposit and
shall return the remainder of such amount, if any, to Tenant.

 ARTICLE X 
 DAMAGE, DESTRUCTION AND EMINENT DOMAIN 
  
 Section 10.1 - Fire, Explosion or Other Casualty 
  
 In the event the Leased Premises are damaged by fire, explosion or any other casualty and this Lease is not terminated as hereafter provided, then, subject to the other provisions of this Lease, the damage shall be diligently repaired by
Landlord; provided, however, that in no event shall Landlord be required to repair or replace Tenant’s stock, fixtures, furniture, furnishings, floor coverings, equipment or the like, or alterations or additions to the Leased Premises made by
Tenant. In the event of any such damage and (a) if the Leased Premises shall be damaged to the extent of fifty percent (50%) or more of the cost of replacement, (b) if the Building is damaged to the extent of twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the
cost of replacement, or (c) if the casualty shall render the Leased Premises untenantable and the damage cannot in Landlord’s judgment be repaired within sixty (60) days after the happening thereof, then Landlord may terminate this Lease by
written notice to Tenant. If any such damage cannot be repaired within one hundred eighty (180) days after the occurrence thereof, then Landlord shall so notify Tenant within sixty (60) days after the occurrence thereof and either party may
terminate this Lease by written notice to the other given if at all within ten (10) days thereafter. In the event of any such termination, all obligations of the parties accruing after such termination, including the obligation to pay rent and other
charges, shall cease upon delivery of such notice. The cost of replacement for purposes hereof shall be determined by a licensed architect selected by Landlord. If the repair of the Leased Premises is not substantially completed within a period of
one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of the occurrence of such damage (as extended by delays of the nature described in Section 18.7) then Landlord or Tenant may terminate this Lease by written notice to the other party given within five (5)
days after the expiration of such one hundred eighty (180) day period. 
  
 If such casualty shall render the Leased Premises or any portion thereof untenantable, then the Base Rent and Additional Rent shall be abated as hereinafter set forth. Any abatement or rent hereunder shall be on a per diem basis in an
amount bearing the same ratio to such rent for the period of untenantability as the untenantable portion of the Leased Premises bears to the entire Leased Premises. 
  
 Section 10.2 - Eminent Domain 
  
 If the whole of the Leased Premises shall be taken by any public authority under the power of eminent domain, this Lease shall cease as of the day
possession shall be taken by such public authority and Tenant shall pay rent up to that date with an appropriate refund by Landlord of any rent which has been paid in advance for a period subsequent to the date possession is so taken. If ten percent
(10%) or less of the area of the Leased Premises shall be so taken and if the remainder thereof and of the Common Areas is tenantable by Tenant for the purposes for which the Leased Premises were used immediately prior thereto, then this Lease shall
cease only as to the parts so taken as of the day possession shall be so taken by such public authority and Tenant 

  

 16 

 
shall pay rent for such parts up to that day with an appropriate refund by Landlord of any rent which has been paid in advance for a period subsequent to the
date possession is so taken, and thereafter the Base Rent and Additional Rent shall be equitably adjusted. Landlord, at Landlord’s expense, shall make all necessary repairs or alterations to the Leased Premises and Common Areas so as to
constitute the remaining premises a complete architectural unit; provided, that if the reasonable cost of such repairs or alterations (as determined by a licensed architect selected by Landlord) will exceed the amount of the award of if such repairs
or alterations cannot in Landlord’s reasonable judgment be completed within sixty (60) days, then Landlord may terminate this Lease as of the day of possession by written notice to Tenant and Tenant shall pay rent and other charges to such
termination. If more than ten percent (10%) of the area of the Leased Premises shall be so taken or if such portion of the Common Areas is so taken that the remainder is not tenantable by Tenant for the purposes for which the Leased Premises were
used immediately prior to such taking, then either party shall have the right to terminate this Lease upon notice in writing to the other delivered on or before the day of surrendering possession to the public authority. If neither party so
terminates, all of the provisions of this Lease shall continue to effect, except that the rent and other charges payable by Tenant shall be equitably adjusted, and Landlord shall make all necessary repairs or alterations to the Leased Premises and
Common Areas so as to constitute the remaining premises a complete architectural unit. If more than ten percent (10%) of the aggregate floor area of the Building or more than ten percent (10%) of the area of the Land shall be taken under the power
of eminent domain then Landlord, by notice in writing to Tenant delivered on or before the day of surrendering possession to public authority, may terminate this Lease and rent shall be paid or refunded as of the date of termination. All
compensation awarded for any taking under the power of eminent domain, whether for the whole or a part of the Leased Premises, the Building or any part of the Project shall be the property of Landlord, whether awarded as compensation for diminution
in the value of the leasehold or to the fee of the Leased Premises or otherwise, and Tenant hereby assigns to Landlord all of the Tenant’s right, title and interest in and to any and all such compensation; provided, however, that Landlord shall
not be entitled to any award made expressly to Tenant for the taking of Tenant’s trade fixtures or furniture. 
  
 ARTICLE XI

 Section 11.1 - Indemnification By Tenant 
  
 Tenant will pay, and will protect, indemnify and save harmless Landlord from
and against all liabilities, losses, obligations, claims, damages, penalties, costs and expenses (including without limitation, all reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) which may be imposed or incurred by or awarded against Landlord by
reason of (a) any accident, injury to or death of persons or loss of or damage to property occurring on or about the Leased Premises or resulting from any act or omission of Tenant or anyone claiming by, through or under Tenant, (b) any failure on
the part of Tenant to perform or comply with any of the terms of this Lease, (c) any use, neglect or condition of the Leased Premises or any part thereof, or (d) performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other
property in respect of the Leased Premises or any part thereof, except to the extent such liability was caused by Landlord’s negligence or willful misconduct. In case any action, suit or proceeding is brought against Landlord by reason of any
such occurrence, Tenant will, at Tenant’s expense, by counsel approved by Landlord, resist and defend such action, suit or proceeding. 
  

 17 

 Section 11.2 - Limitation of Landlord’s Liability 
  
 Tenant, as a material part of the consideration to be rendered to Landlord
under this Lease, to the extent permitted by law, hereby waives all claims, except claims caused by or resulting solely and directly from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Landlord, its agents, servants or employees, which Tenant or
Tenant’s successor or assigns may have against Landlord, its agents, servants and employees, for loss, theft or damage to property and for injuries to persons in, upon or about the Leased Premises, the Building or the Project from any cause
whatsoever. Tenant will hold Landlord, its agents, servants and employees harmless from and on account of any damage or injury to any person, or to the goods, wares and merchandise of any person, arising from the use of the Leased Premises by
Tenant, or arising from the failure of Tenant to keep the Leased Premises in good condition as herein provided. Neither Landlord nor its agents, servants or employees shall be liable to Tenant for any damage by or from any act of negligence of any
co-tenant or other occupant of the Land or the Building, or by any owner or occupant of adjoining or contiguous property. Tenant agrees to pay for all damage to the Land, the Building and the Leased Premises, as well as all damage to tenants or
occupants thereof caused by Tenant’s misuse or neglect of the Leased Premises, it apparatus or appurtenances, or caused by any licensee, contractor, agent or employee of Tenant. 
  
 Particularly, but not in limitation of the foregoing paragraph, all property belonging to Tenant or any occupant of the
Leased Premises that is on the Project, in the Building or the Leased Premises shall be there at the risk of Tenant or such other person only, and Landlord and its agents or employees (except in case of the sole negligence or willful misconduct of
Landlord or its agents or employees) shall not be liable for any damage to or theft of or misappropriation of such property; nor for any damage to property entrusted to Landlord, its agents or employees, if any; nor for the loss of or damage to any
property by theft or otherwise, by any means whatsoever; nor for any injury or damage to person or property resulting from fire, explosion, falling plaster, steam, gas, electricity, snow, water or rain which may leak from any part of the Building or
from the pipes, appliances or plumbing works therein or from the roof, street or subsurface or from any other place or resulting from dampness or from any other cause whatsoever; nor for interference with light or any other incorporeal
hereditaments, nor for any latent defect in the Leased Premises or in the Building or the Land. Tenant shall give prompt notice to Landlord in case of fire, casualty or accidents in the Leased Premises or in the Building or in case of defects
therein or in the fixtures or equipment therein. 
  
 ARTICLE XII

 ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING 
  
 Section 12.1 - By Tenant 
  
 Tenant shall not assign this Lease or any interest herein and shall not sublet the Leased Premises or any part thereof or any right or privilege
appurtenant thereto, or suffer any other person to occupy or use the Leased Premises or any portion thereof, without first obtaining the written consent of Landlord, which consent may be arbitrarily withheld except as hereinafter 

  

 18

calendar month next succeeding receipt of Tenant’s written request for consent to assignment or subletting, to be effective unless Tenant elects to withdraw its request to sublease or assign, which election, if exercised by Landlord, shall be
by written notice to Tenant given within twenty (20) days of receipt by Landlord of Tenant’s request for such consent to assign or sublet. If Landlord elects to terminate this Lease in accordance with the foregoing sentence, then Landlord may
lease the Leased Premises to the sublessee or assignee proposed by Tenant or any other person or entity. Any assignment or subletting or occupancy without Landlord’s prior written consent shall be void and, at the option of Landlord, shall
constitute a Default under this Lease. Neither this Lease nor any interest herein shall be assignable as to the interest of Tenant by operation of law without consent of Landlord, which consent shall be subject to each of the standards set forth in
this Section 12.1. 
  
 Tenant agrees that in the event Landlord
withholds its consent to any assignment, subletting or occupancy contrary to the provisions of this Section 12.1, then Tenant’s sole remedy shall be to seek an injunction in equity to compel Landlord to give its consent and Tenant expressly
waives any right to damages in the event of such withholding by Landlord of its consent. 
  
 If Tenant is a corporation or partnership and if the ownership thereof shall materially change at any time or from time to time during the Term of this Lease from the present composition of same as it may exist at any
time, or if a substantial portion of the assets of Tenant shall be sold, assigned or transferred with or without a specific assignment of this Lease, or, if Tenant shall merge or consolidate with any firm or corporation, Landlord at its option may,
by giving sixty (60) days’ prior written notice to Tenant, declare such change a breach of this Lease. If Tenant is otherwise not in default of the terms of this Lease, then Landlord has the right to terminate this Lease and draw upon the
entire balance of letter of credit, but shall not have the right to claim consequential damages. If Tenant is in default, or if such change as described in this paragraph would negatively affect the rights of Landlord or the creditworthiness of the

  

 19 

 
Tenant, then Landlord has the right to the remedies provided for breach in Article XIII hereof. Tenant shall immediately give written notice to Landlord of
any change in ownership contemplated by this Section 12.1. 
  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tenant may, without Landlord’s consent, sublet all or any portion of the Leased Premises or assign the Lease to: (a) a parent, subsidiary, affiliate, division or corporation controlling, controlled by or
under common control with Tenant; (b) a successor corporation related to Tenant by merger, consolidation, reorganization or governmental action; or (c) a purchaser of Tenant’s leasehold interest in the Leased Premises; provided that (i) the
transferee or assignee or transferor, shall remain liable for performance of all obligations under this Lease, (ii) Tenant, as assignor or transferor, shall remain liable for performance of all obligations under the Lease, (iii) as of the date of
such transfer, the purchaser, assignee, sublessee or transferee shall have the financial ability to perform (in Landlord’s reasonable business judgement) its obligations with respect to this Lease and/or Leased Premises and (iv) at the time of
the transfer, sublease or assignment, Tenant shall not be in default of any of its obligations under the Lease (each of the foregoing is a “Permitted Transfer”). For the purpose of this Lease, any sale or transfer to Tenant’s capital
stock through any public exchange, redemption or issuance of additional stock of any class shall not be deemed an assignment, subletting or any other transfer of the Lease of the Leased Premises. 
  
 Section 12.2 - By Landlord 
  
 In the event of sale or conveyance or transfer by Landlord of its interest
in the Building, in the Project or in this Lease, the same shall operate to release Landlord from any future liability under all of the covenants and conditions, express or implied, contained in this Lease in favor of Tenant, and in such event
Tenant agrees to look solely to the responsibility of the successor in interest of Landlord in and to this Lease. This Lease shall not be affected by any such sale, conveyance or transfer. 
  
 ARTICLE XIII 
 DEFAULT AND LANDLORD’S REMEDIES 
  
 Section 13.1 - Defaults 
  
 The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute a default (“Default”) hereunder: 
  
 (a) if Tenant defaults in the payment of rent (whether Base Rent or Additional Rent) or any other sum required to be paid pursuant to this Lease and if
the default is not remedied within five (5) days after written notice thereof by Landlord to Tenant; or 
  
 (b) if Tenant defaults in the prompt and full performance of any term, covenant or provisions of this Lease (except the other subparagraphs of this
Section 13.1) and if such default is not remedied within thirty (30) days after notice thereof by the Landlord; provided, however, that if such default is susceptible of being cured but cannot by its nature be cured within thirty (30) days, then
Tenant shall have such longer period as is reasonably necessary to cure such default provided Tenant has promptly commenced and is diligently pursuing such cure; or 
  

 20 

 (c) if the leasehold interest of Tenant is levied upon under execution or is attached under process of
law, which levy or attachment continues for a period of thirty (30) days; or 
  
 (d) if Tenant shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts or shall make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; or 
  
 (e) if Tenant shall commence any case, proceeding or other action seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment,
liquidation, dissolution or composition of Tenant or its debts under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or relief of debtors, or seeking appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official for Tenant or
for all or any substantial part of its property; or 
  
 (f) if any
case, proceeding or other action against Tenant shall be commenced seeking to have an order for relief entered against Tenant as debtor or seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, liquidation, dissolution or composition of Tenant or its
debts under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or relief of debtors, or seeking appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official for Tenant or for all or any substantial part of its property, and such
case, proceeding or other action (i) results in the entry of an order for relief against Tenant which is not fully stayed within seven (7) days after the entry thereof or (ii) remains undismissed for a period of thirty (30) days; or 
  
 (g) if Tenant shall vacate or abandon the Leased Premises during the Term or
fail to take possession of the Leased Premises within thirty (30) days after the Leased Premises are available for occupancy (the transfer of a substantial part of the operations, business and personnel of the Tenant previously located at the Leased
Premises to another location without replacement of same with other operations permitted by the terms of this lease, being deemed, without limiting the meaning of the term “vacates or abandons,” to be a vacation or abandonment within the
meaning of this subsection (g)), whether or not Tenant thereafter continues to pay rent under this Lease. 
  
 Section 13.2 - Landlord’s Remedies 
  
 (a) Upon the occurrence of any one or more Defaults by Tenant, Landlord may elect to terminate this Lease and Tenant’s right to possession of the Leased Premises or, without terminating this Lease, may forthwith
terminate Tenant’s right to possession of the Leased Premises. Upon any termination of this Lease, whether by lapse of time or otherwise, or upon any termination of Tenant’s right to possession without termination of the Lease, Tenant
shall surrender possession and vacate the Leased Premises and deliver possession thereof to Landlord, and Tenant hereby grants to Landlord full and free license to enter into and upon the Leased Premises with or without process of law in the event
of any such termination of this Lease or right to possession, and to repossess Landlord of the Leased Premises and of Landlord’s former estate and to expel or remove Tenant and any others who may be occupying or be within the Leased Premises
and to remove any and all property therefrom using such force as may be necessary without being deemed in any manner guilty of trespass, eviction or forcible entry or detainer, and without relinquishing Landlord’s rights to rent or any other
right given to Landlord hereunder or by operation of law. 
  

 21 

 (b) If Landlord elects to terminate Tenant’s right to possession only without terminating this
Lease, then Landlord may at Landlord’s option enter into the Leased Premises, remove Tenant’s signs and other evidences of tenancy, and take and hold possession thereof as provided in Section 13.2(a), without such entry or possession
terminating this Lease or releasing Tenant, in whole or in part, from Tenant’s obligation to pay the rent hereunder for the full Term. Upon and after entry into possession without termination of this Lease, subject to Landlord’s right to
first rent other vacant areas in the Building, Landlord may relet the Leased Premises or any part thereof to any person, firm, or corporation other than Tenant for such rent, for such time and upon such terms as Landlord in Landlord’s sole
discretion shall determine. Any proceeds from the reletting of the Leased Premises by Landlord shall first be applied against the cost and expenses of reletting the Leased Premises including, but not limited to, all brokerage, advertising, legal,
alteration and other reasonably necessary expenses incurred to secure a new tenant for the Leased Premises. If the consideration collected by Landlord upon any such reletting after payment of the expenses of reletting the Leased Premises is not
sufficient to pay monthly the full amount of the rent reserved in this Lease, then Tenant shall pay to Landlord upon demand the amount of each monthly deficiency as it becomes due. If the consideration collected by Landlord upon any such reletting
after payment of the expense of reletting the Leased Premises is greater than the amount necessary to pay the full amount of the rent reserved in this Lease, the full amount of such excess shall be retained by Landlord and shall in no event be
payable to Tenant. 
  
 (c) If Landlord shall decide to terminate
this Lease, Landlord, at its option, shall be entitled to recover from Tenant, in lieu of any amounts due under Section 13.2(b), and Tenant shall pay to Landlord, on demand, as and for liquidated and agreed final damages, a sum equal to
Landlord’s reasonable estimate of the aggregate amount of Base Rent, Additional Rent and the unamortized allowances and improvements for the period from the date of such termination through the stated termination of the Term, as discounted to
present worth at the rate of five percent (5%) annum. 
  
 (d)
Landlord may, but shall not be obligated to, cure, at any time and without notice, any Default by Tenant under this Lease; and whenever Landlord so elects all costs and expenses thereby incurred by Landlord including, without limitation, court costs
and reasonable attorneys’ fees, together with interest thereon from the date incurred to the date paid at the rate set forth in Section 18.5 shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord on demand. 
  
 (e) Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, any and all
remedies set forth in this Lease (i) shall be in addition to any and all other remedies Landlord may have at law or in equity, (ii) shall be cumulative and (iii) may be pursued successively or concurrently as the Landlord may elect. The waiver by
Landlord of any breach of any term, covenant or condition herein contained shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such term, covenant or condition or any subsequent breach of the same, or any other term, covenant or condition herein contained. The
acceptance of rent hereunder shall not be construed to be a waiver of any breach by Tenant of any term, covenant or condition of this Lease. 
  
 (f) Notwithstanding any provision in this Lease permitting Tenant to cure any default within a specified period of time, if Tenant shall default (i) in
the timely payment of rent (whether any or all of Base Rent or Additional Rent) three (3) or more times in any period of 

  

 22 

 
twelve (12) consecutive months, or (ii) in the performance of any particular term, condition or covenant of this Lease three (3) or more times in any period
of six (6) consecutive months, then, notwithstanding that such defaults shall have each been cured within any applicable cure period after notice, as provided in this Lease, any further similar default (including, without limitation, with respect to
non-payment of rent, the further non-payment of any kind of rent payable under this Lease) shall not be curable by Tenant and Landlord shall have all of the remedies provided in this Lease (including, without limitation, any and all remedies at law
and in equity) for a Default hereunder. 
  
 Section 13.3 - Holdover by Tenant

  
 If the Tenant retains possession of the Leased Premises
or any part thereof after the termination of the Term or any extension thereof, by lapse of time or otherwise, Tenant shall become a tenant from month-to-month only upon all of the terms and conditions herein provided as may be applicable to a
month-to-month tenancy and any such holdover shall not constitute an extension of this Lease; provided, however that during such holding over Tenant shall pay the Base Rent and any Additional Rent, at one hundred fifty percent (150%) the rate
payable for the month immediately preceding said holding over (including increases for Operating Costs and Taxes which Landlord may reasonably estimate), computed on a per-month basis for each month or part thereof (without reduction for any partial
month) that the Tenant thus remains in possession, and in addition thereto, Tenant shall pay the Landlord all damages, consequential as well as direct, sustained by reason of the Tenant’s retention of possession. 
  
 Section 13.4 - Storage of Tenant’s Property 
  
 If, up on termination of this Lease by lapse of time or otherwise or up on
abandonment of the Leased Premises, Tenant shall fail to remove any of Tenant’s property from the Leased Premises, Tenant hereby authorizes Landlord, at Landlord’s option, to cause such property to be removed and placed in storage for the
account of and at the expense of Tenant, or on such termination, to sell such property at public or private sale, with ten (10) days’ prior notice to Tenant, and to apply the proceeds thereof, after payment of all expenses of removal, storage
and sale, to the satisfaction of any obligation of Tenant to Landlord, the excess, if any, to be paid to Tenant upon demand. 
  
 ARTICLE XIV 
 ASBESTOS AND HAZARDOUS
SUBSTANCES 
  
 Section 14.1 - Asbestos 
  
 Tenant shall not install or permit to be installed in the Leased Premises
asbestos or any substance containing asbestos and deemed hazardous by federal, state or local laws, rules, regulations or orders respecting such material. With respect to any such material installed by Tenant, Tenant shall promptly either (a) remove
any such material required to be removed, or (b) otherwise comply with such federal, state or local laws, rules, regulations or orders, at Tenant’s expense. If Tenant shall fail to so remove or otherwise comply, then Landlord may either declare
a Default under this Lease or do whatever is necessary to remove said substances from the Leased Premises or otherwise comply with the applicable law, rule, regulation or order and 

  

 23 

 
the cost thereof shall be deemed Additional Rent and shall be due and payable by Tenant upon demand. Tenant shall permit Landlord, its agents and employees,
to enter the Leased Premises to remove any such asbestos or substance and to comply with such laws and requirements. 
  
 Tenant shall indemnify and hold Landlord harmless from and against all loss, cost, damage and expense (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees
and costs incurred in the investigation, defense and settlement of claims) that Landlord may incur as a result of or in connection with the assertion against Landlord of any claim relating to the presence or removal of any such asbestos or substance
or the compliance with any federal, state or local laws, rules, regulations or orders relating thereto. In addition, Tenant acknowledges that if such asbestos or substance is caused to be removed from the Leased Premises by either Tenant or by
Landlord, then the Environmental Protection Agency number assigned to the asbestos or substance so removed shall be solely in the name of the Tenant and that Tenant shall assume all liability for such removed asbestos or substance. Tenant’s
obligations under this Section 13.1 shall survive the termination of this Lease. 
  
 Landlord represents to the best of its knowledge and without the requirement of further investigation by Landlord, that as of the date of execution herein no asbestos exists in or about the Premises. In the event
asbestos is discovered in the Leased Premises which existed prior to the date of the Lease, Landlord shall remediate or encapsulate such asbestos in compliance with all law. 
  
 Section 14.2 - Hazardous Substance 
  
 (a) For the purpose of this Section 14.2, “Hazardous Substance(s)” shall mean any substance, material, waste, gas or particulate matter which at
any time shall be listed as “hazardous” or “toxic” under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“CERCLA”), 42 U.S.C. §§9601 et seq., as amended, the Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act (“RCRA”), 42 U.S.C. §§6901 et seq., as amended, the Illinois Environmental Protection Act (“IEPA”) or in the regulations implementing such statutes, or which has been or shall be
determined at any time by any agency or court to be a hazardous or toxic substance regulated under any Applicable Laws (as hereinafter defined); provided, however, that “Hazardous Substances” shall not include substances which are used or
sold solely in the ordinary course of Lessee’s business as specifically provided in this Lease so long as such substances at all times are used, handled, transported, stored, discharged or emitted in strict compliance with all Applicable Laws.
If such substances are not so used, handled, transported, stored discharged or emitted, then they shall be deemed “Hazardous Substances” for purposes of this Lease. 
  
 For the purposes of this Section 14.2, “Applicable Laws” shall include, but shall not be limited to CERCLA, RCRA,
IEPA, the Federal Water Pollution Control Act, 33 U.S.C. §§1251 et seq., the Clean Air Act, 42 U.S.C. §7401 et seq., as amended, and the regulations promulgated thereunder, and any other federal, state and/or local laws
or regulations, whether currently in existence or hereafter enacted or promulgated, that govern or relate to: (i) the existence, cleanup and/or remedy of contamination or property, (ii) the protection of the environment from spilled, deposited or
otherwise emplaced contamination, (iii) the control of hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, or (iv) the use, generation, discharge, transportation, treatment, removal or recovery of hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, including building
materials. 
  

 24 

 (b) Tenant shall not conduct or authorize the generation, transportation, storage, treatment or disposal
at the Leased Premises or the Project of any Hazardous Substance without prior written authorization by Landlord, which authorization may be arbitrarily refused, and the Tenant’s failure to secure such authorization shall constitute a Default
under this Lease. 
  
 (c) If Tenant does generate, transport,
store, treat or dispose of any Hazardous Substance at the Leased Premises or the Project, then: 
  

	 	(i)	Tenant, at its own cost, shall comply with all Applicable Laws; 

  

	 	(ii)	Tenant shall promptly provide Landlord with copies of all communications, permits or agreements with any governmental authority or agency (federal, state or local) or any private
entity relating in any way to the presence, release, threat of release, placement on or in the Leased Premises or the Project, or the generation, transportation, storage, treatment, or disposal at the Leased Premises or the Project, of any Hazardous
Substance; 

  

	 	(iii)	Landlord and Landlord’s agents and employees shall have the right to enter the Leased Premises and/or conduct appropriate tests for the purposes of ascertaining that Tenant
complies with all Applicable Laws relating in any way to the Leased Premises or the Project; and 

  

	 	(iv)	upon written request by Landlord, Tenant shall provide Landlord the results of appropriate tests of air, water and/or soil to demonstrate that Tenant complies with all Applicable
Laws relating in any way to the Leased Premises or the Project. 

  
 (d) If the presence, release, threat of release, placement on or in the Leased Premises or the Project, or the generation, transportation, storage, treatment, or disposal at the Leased Premises or the Project of any
Hazardous Substance: (i) gives rise to liability (including, but not limited to, a response action, remedial action, or removal action) under any Applicable Law or any common law theory based on nuisance or strict liability, (ii) causes a
significant public health effect, or (iii) pollutes or threatens to pollute the environment, Tenant shall promptly take any and all remedial and removal action necessary to clean up the Leased Premises and the Project and to mitigate exposure to
liability arising from the hazardous substance, whether or not required by law. 
  
 (e) Tenant shall indemnify, defend and hold Landlord harmless from all damages, costs, losses, expenses (including, but not limited to, actual attorney’s fees and engineering fees) arising from or attributable to
any breach by Tenant of any of its covenants contained in this Section 14.2. Tenant’s obligations under this Section 14.2 shall survive the termination of this Lease. 
  

 25 

 ARTICLE XV 
 UTILITIES 
  
 Section 15.1 - Utilities

  
 (a) Tenant shall pay for the use of all electrical, gas,
water and other utility service to the Leased Premises. Tenant shall be billed directly by each such utility (except water which may at Landlord’s election be separately metered and billed to Tenant) and Tenant agrees to pay each such bill
promptly in accordance with its terms. In the event that for any reason Tenant cannot be billed directly, Landlord shall forward each bill with respect to the Leased Premises to Tenant and Tenant shall pay it promptly in accordance with its terms.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if Tenant cannot be separately metered for any reason, Tenant shall pay Landlord as Additional Rent and in monthly installments at the time prescribed for monthly installments of Base Rent,
an annual amount, as estimated by Landlord from time to time, which Tenant would pay for such utility service if the same were separately metered to the Leased Premises by the local utility company and billed to Tenant at such company’s current
rates (including applicable taxes). The cost of any utility service supplied to the Project or Common Areas by Landlord shall be included in Operating Costs. 
  
 (b) Tenant shall not waste or permit any excessive use of water nor shall Tenant use water for purposes other than drinking, lavatory, toilet purposes or
other common purpose through fixtures installed by Landlord or by Tenant, with Landlord’s consent. Tenant shall pay Landlord for domestic water and hot water furnished or used for any other purpose as Additional Rent, at reasonable rates fixed
by Landlord, and, in connection therewith, Landlord may require tenant at Tenant’s cost to install a submeter to measure Tenant water usage. Tenant shall not introduce into the sewer system any harmful or dangerous substances and shall not
overload the sewer system by abnormal usage. 
  
 (c) Tenant agrees
that Landlord shall not be liable in damages, by abatement of rent or otherwise, for failure to furnish or for a delay in furnishing any service or utility, whether the responsibility of Landlord or others, if such failure or delay is occasioned, in
whole or in part, by repairs, renewals or improvements authorized by this Lease, by any strike, lockout or other labor trouble, by inability to secure electricity, gas, water or other fuel at the Building or Project after reasonable effort so to do,
by any accident or casualty whatsoever, by the act or default of Tenant or other parties, or by any cause beyond the reasonable control of Landlord; and such failures or delays shall never be deemed to constitute an eviction or disturbance of the
Tenant’s use and possession of the Leased Premises or relieve the Tenant from paying rent or performing any of its obligations under this Lease.

 Section 18.10 -
Execution of Lease 
  
 No employee or agent of Landlord, of
Landlord’s beneficiary, of the Agent or of Landlord’s broker, if any, has authority to make or agree to make any agreement or undertaking in connection with this Lease not set forth in this written Lease. The submission of this document
for examination does not constitute an offer to lease, or reservation for, or option for, the Leased Premises, and this document will become effective and binding only upon execution and delivery by both the Landlord and the Tenant. All
negotiations, considerations, representations and understandings between Landlord and Tenant are incorporated herein and may be modified or altered only by agreement in writing between Landlord and Tenant and no act or omission of any employee or
agent of Landlord, of Landlord’s beneficiary, of Agent or of Landlord’s broker, if any, shall alter, change or modify any of the provisions hereof. 
  
 Section 18.11 - Security Deposit 
  
 In lieu of a cash security deposit, Tenant shall deliver to Landlord, on or before the date of commencement of the Tenant Work, a letter of credit in the
amount of $250,000.00 (the “Letter of Credit”). The initial Letter of Credit hereunder shall expire no earlier than twelve (12) months from the date of commencement of the Tenant Work and any replacement Letter of Credit hereunder shall
expire no earlier than twelve (12) months from the then outstanding and expiring Letter of Credit. Provided that Tenant has not been in Default of any terms or 

  

 30 

 
conditions of this Lease, Tenant shall have right to deliver the replacement Letter of Credit in amount equal to 80% of the initial Letter of Credit and each
subsequent replacement Letter of Credit in an amount equal to 80% of the amount of the Letter of Credit for the previous year. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the amount of the Letter of Credit shall never be less than the the combined value the
current monthly Base Rent and Additional Rent. Tenant shall ensure that, at all times during the Term and for thirty (30) days after expiration of the Term, an unexpired Letter of Credit shall be in the possession of Landlord, therefor, Tenant shall
deliver to Landlord during the Term, not later than thirty (30) days prior to expiration of the then outstanding and expiring Letter of Credit, a replacement Letter of Credit. In the event Tenant fails to so deliver any replacement Letter of Credit:
(i) Landlord shall be entitled to draw on the then outstanding Letter of Credit and retain the entire proceeds thereof; and (ii) Tenant shall be required to deliver a replacement Letter of Credit in the amount of 150% of the previously issued Letter
of Credit. The Letter of Credit shall be in form as satisfactory to Landlord and shall include an “evergreen” clause which provides for the automatic annual renewal of the Letter of Credit. Tenant shall bear all costs and expenses related
to maintaining the Letter of Credit, including the fees of the financial institution that issues the Letter of Credit. Upon the occurrence of a Default (as defined in Section 13.1 of the lease) by Tenant, Landlord may draw upon the Letter of Credit,
in whole or in part, and use all or any part of the draw on the Letter of Credit for the payment of any Rent or for the payment of any amounts which Landlord may pay or become obligated to pay by reason of such a Default, or to compensate Landlord
for any loss or damage which Landlord may suffer by reason of such a Default. If the Letter of Credit is drawn upon, in whole or in part, Tenant shall within ten (10) days after written demand therefore restore the Letter of Credit to its original
amount. Landlord shall not be required to keep the cash proceeds of any draw on the Letter of Credit separate from its general funds, and Tenant shall not be entitled to interest on such cash proceeds. In no event shall the cash proceeds of any draw
on the Letter of Credit be considered an advance payment of Rent, and in no event shall Tenant be entitled to use such cash proceeds for the payment of Rent. If no Default by Tenant exists hereunder, the Letter of Credit (or any balance of such
items) shall be returned to Tenant within thirty (30) days after the expiration of the Term and vacation of the Premises by Tenant. Landlord shall transfer the Letter of Credit to any successor in interest to Landlord. Provided Landlord has
transferred the Letter of Credit in accordance with the preceding sentence and such successor has accepted such transfer, Tenant shall look solely to such successor in interest for return of the Letter of Credit, and Landlord shall be relieved of
any liability with respect to such items. 
  
 Section 18.12 - Heirs, Successors
and Assigns 
  
 The covenants, agreements and obligations
herein contained, except as herein otherwise specifically provided, shall extend to, bind and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective personal representatives, heirs, successors and assigns. 
  
 Section 18.13 - Subordination 
  
 This Lease is and shall always be subject to the lien of any mortgage,
including a trust deed in the nature of a mortgage, which may now or hereafter affect the Project, the Building or the Leased Premises, and to all renewals, consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof; provided however, with respect to any
such mortgage executed after the date hereof, that the holder of such mortgage agrees, in the event of foreclosure and so long as no default exists or 

  

 31 

 
other event has occurred which would entitle the Landlord to terminate this Lease or Tenant’s right to possession, that such holder shall reorganize
this lease and not disturb the possession of the Tenant hereunder. Tenant agrees to and does hereby attorn to the holder of any such mortgage, or any purchaser upon foreclosure, or their successors and assigns, which attornment shall be effective
and self-operative without the execution of any further instruments. Tenant hereby further agrees to execute such instruments and assurances as Landlord or the holder of any such mortgage may deem reasonably necessary to evidence the subordination
of this Lease and Tenant’s attornment to such holder or purchaser. 
  
 Section 18.14 - Payments to Affiliates

and contracting of capital improvements or other capital repairs or construction items) by affiliates of Landlord of its beneficiary or of the Agent provided that the fees or costs of such services and materials are at market rates in the Chicago
metropolitan area. All such fees or costs paid by Landlord to such parties shall be deemed to constitute Operating Costs on the same terms and conditions as if such fees and costs were paid to parties without any affiliation with Landlord.

 The words “Re-enter” and “Re-entry”,
as used in this Lease are restricted to their technical legal meaning. The term “Landlord”, as used in this Lease, means only the landlord from time to time, and upon conveying or transferring its interest, such conveying or transferring

promptly upon demand a corporate resolution or other appropriate documentation reasonably requested by Landlord evidencing the due authorization of Tenant to enter into this lease. 
  
 Section 18.17 - Time of Essence

	Re:	 	Premises located at:

 Simultaneously with
the execution of this Work Letter Agreement, you (“Tenant”) and the undersigned (“Landlord”) are entering into a lease (the “Lease”) pertaining to the space referred to above (the “Leased Premises”). The word
“Building” as used herein shall have the meaning assigned to it in the Lease. 
  
 In consideration of the covenants contained in this Work Letter Agreement and in the Lease, Landlord and Tenant agree as follows: 
  
 1. Space Plan; Architect; Tenant’s Work. 
  
 (a) Tenant shall prepare and submit to Landlord a plan showing all demising walls, corridors, entrances, exits, doors,
interior partitions, and the locations of all offices, conference rooms, food preparation areas, kitchens and the reception area for the Leased Premises (“Space Plan”) for Landlord’s reasonable review and approval. Landlord agrees to
review and approve or reject same within five (5) business days of its delivery to Landlord; any rejection by Landlord shall be accompanied by written comments and reasons for rejection. If rejected in whole or in part, Tenant shall work with
Landlord to redesign the Space Plan to satisfy Landlord’s reasonable concerns. 
  
 (b) Following Landlord’s approval of the Space Plan, Tenant shall cause the Tenant’s architect, (the “Architect”), to submit to Landlord drawings prepared by the Architect showing, among other
things, partition locations, reflected ceiling plans, office equipment locations, and special security systems (“Working Drawings”) and engineering drawings prepared by Architect or engineer showing complete mechanical, electrical,
plumbing, sprinklers, HVAC and telecommunications equipment and systems (“Engineering Drawings”). Such Working Drawings and Engineering Drawings shall be compatible with the design, construction and equipment of the Building and current
Building standards, comply with all applicable laws, be capable of logical measurement and construction and contain all such information as may be required for the construction of all of the improvements (the “Tenant Work”) which Tenant
desires to be made to the Leased Premises. 
  
 (c) Landlord agrees
to review the Working Drawings and Engineering Drawings and approve or reject same within five (5) business days after receipt of same; any 

 
rejection by Landlord shall be accompanied by written comments and reasons for rejection. Landlord shall either approve or disapprove the Working Drawings
and Engineering Drawings for reasonable and material reasons which may include the following: (i) adverse affect on the structural integrity of the Building; (ii) possible damage or incompatibility with the Building’s mechanical, electrical or
plumbing systems; (iii) non-compliance with applicable codes; (iv) failure to satisfy current Building standards or (v) adverse affect on the exterior appearance of the Premises or Building (each, a “Design Problem”) or designate by notice
given within such time period to Tenant, the specific changes reasonably required to be made to the Working Drawings and Engineering Drawings in order to correct any Design Problem. Tenant shall make such reasonable changes as shall be necessary in
order to correct any such Design Problem and shall return the Working Drawings and Engineering Drawings to Landlord, which Landlord shall approve or disapprove within five (5) business days after Landlord receives the revised Working Drawings and
Engineering Drawings. 
  
 2. Approval of Contractor.
Landlord reserves the right to approve Tenant’s contractor in connection with the Tenant Work and Tenant agrees to submit the name and address of the proposed contractor together with said contractor’s references for Landlord’s
approval prior to entering into any agreement with said Contractor for the Tenant Work hereunder, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. 
  
 3. Performance of Tenant Work. Tenant, at its expense, shall cause the Tenant Work to be performed in the Leased Premises pursuant to the final
Working Drawings and Engineering Drawings approved by Landlord and the Village of Elk Grove Village. 
  
 4. Letter of Credit. Prior to the Commencement of the Tenant’s Work, Tenant shall comply with the terms of Section 18.11 of the Lease.

  
 5. Tenant Improvement Allowance. 
  
 (a) Tenant shall be entitled to a one-time tenant improvement allowance (the
“Tenant Improvement Allowance”) in the amount of $150,000 for the costs relating to the Tenant Work. 
  
 (b) Except as otherwise set forth in this Work Letter, the Tenant Improvement Allowance shall be paid by Landlord only for the following items and costs
(collectively the “Tenant Improvement Allowance Items”): 
  
 (i) The payment of the final approved plans, permit and license fees relating to the construction of the Tenant Work; 
  
 (ii) The cost of construction of the Tenant Work, including without limitation, contractors’ fees and general conditions; 
  
 (iii) The cost of any changes in the Leased Premises or Building when such
changes are required by the Final Plans; 
  
 (iv) The cost of any
changes to the final approved plans or Tenant Work required by all applicable building codes (the “Code”); 

 (v) Sales and use taxes; and 
  
 (vi) All other direct costs to be expended by Tenant in connection with the construction of the Tenant Work. 
  
 (c) Tenant may request that the Tenant Improvement Allowance be paid in two
(2) installments and each such payments shall be made within thirty (30) days after written request from Tenant, subject to the further terms of this Paragraph 5. Each request for payment from Tenant shall be accompanied by satisfactory evidence of
completion, an architectural statement certifying the percentage of completion of the Tenant Work), lien waivers (covering all of the Tenant Work for which payment has been requested), receipts, invoices, bills and other supporting documentation as
Landlord (or its mortgagee or title insurer) shall reasonably request prior to payment by Landlord hereunder for the Tenant Work. Landlord shall not be obligated to reimburse Tenant in an amount more than 90% of the Tenant Improvement Allowance
until Landlord has received and approved final documentation from Tenant and Tenant’s contractor that all invoices for the Tenant Work in and about the Leased Premises have been satisfied and Landlord had received final waivers from all
contractors and subcontractors. 
  
 6. Entry into Leased
Premises. Landlord shall permit Tenant and Tenant’s agents or representatives to enter the Leased Premises prior to the Commencement Date as provided in the Lease in order that Tenant may make the Leased Premises ready for Tenant’s use
and occupancy. Such permission shall constitute a license only and not a lease. Tenant agrees that Landlord shall not be liable in any way for any injury, loss or damage which may occur to during Tenant’s preparation of the Leased Premises or
to properties placed therein prior to the Commencement Date, the same being at Tenant’s sole risk, except as attributable to Landlord’s intentional or willful acts. 
  
 7. Additional Rent. All amounts payable by Tenant to Landlord under this Work Letter Agreement shall be deemed
Additional Rent under the Lease and upon any default in the payment of such Additional Rent, Landlord shall have all of the rights and remedies provided in the Lease. 
  
 8. Incorporation by Reference. The terms and provisions of the Lease, to the extent that they are applicable to this
Work Letter Agreement, are incorporated herein by reference. The provisions of this Work Letter Agreement supplement and are specifically subject to all of the provisions of the Lease. 

 If the foregoing correctly sets forth our understanding, kindly sign this Work Letter where indicated and
return the same with the Lease to the Landlord.

 RIDER 101 
 OPTION TO RENEW 
  
 Subject to the further provisions of this Rider, Tenant shall have the option (the “Renewal Option”) to renew this Lease for two (2) additional successive periods of five (5) years each (each a “Renewal Term”),
commencing on the day immediately following the last day of the Initial Term, or first Renewal Term, as the case maybe, as follows: 
  
 (a) Exercise. Tenant shall exercise each Renewal Option by giving written notice thereof to Landlord not more than twenty-four (24) months and not less
than nine (9) months prior to the last day of the Term provided in Paragraph 1.1 of the Lease or first Renewal Term, as the case may be. Tenant’s notice of its exercise of a Renewal Option is a “Renewal Notice. 
  
 (b) Terms. All terms and conditions of this Lease shall apply during the
Renewal Term, except that: (i) Landlord shall not provide any allowances nor be required to effect any improvements to the Leased Premises; and (ii) the Base Rent of the extended Lease shall be based on the then prevailing base annual rent (assuming
a fully “net” lease and including abatement but excluding any and all allowance) for properties of equivalent quality, size, utility and location, with the length of the lease term, and credit standing of the Tenant taken into account. In
the event Landlord and Tenant do not agree upon the “then prevailing base annual rent” for the Renewal Term within forty-five (45) days of Tenant’s exercise of said Renewal Option, then said Renewal Option shall expire. Exercise of
the Renewal Option shall not award Tenant any further right to extend or interfere with the rights of Landlord to terminate this Lease. 
  
 (c) Tenant Default. If at the time when Landlord received a Renewal Notice or on the date of the commencement of a Renewal Term, Tenant shall be in
default under this Lease, Landlord shall have the right, by giving written notice thereof to Tenant, to cancel the applicable Renewal Option with respect to such Renewal Term and any exercise of such Renewal Option by Tenant. In the event of such
cancellation, Tenant shall have no right, and Landlord shall have no obligation, to renew this lease pursuant to any such Renewal Option. 
  
 (d) Limitations on Renewal Option. If Tenant fails to exercise a Renewal Option within the time required, such failure shall automatically cancel such
Renewal Option, and Tenant shall have no right, and Landlord shall have no obligation, to renew this Lease pursuant to such Renewal Option. If Tenant assigns or transfers any interest in this lease or sublets any part of the Premises (other than an
assignment or subleases permitted pursuant to Paragraph hereof), then notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, such assignment, transfer or sublease shall automatically cancel any Renewal Option which has not then been exercised
and automatically cancel any previous exercise of any Renewal Option unless the subject Renewal Term has already then commenced. In the event of any such cancellation, Tenant shall have no further rights under this Section. 

 RIDER 102 
 EARLY TERMINATION OPTION 
  
 Subject to the terms and conditions of and compliance with the provisions of this Rider, Tenant shall have the option (the “Termination Option”) to terminate this Lease effective on the day immediately preceding the fifth
(5th) anniversary date of the Commencement Date (the “Early Termination Date”). 
  
 (a) Exercise. Tenant shall exercise the Termination Option by giving
written notice (the “Termination Notice”) thereof to Landlord not more than eighteen (18) months and not less than nine (9) months prior to the Early Termination Date. 
  
 (b) Termination Fee. Provided Tenant has delivered the Termination Notice to Landlord in the manner and within the
time periods set forth in Subsection (a) above, Tenant’s right to terminate this Lease pursuant to the Termination Option shall be further conditioned on Tenant’s payment to Landlord, on or before the date which is nine (9) months prior to
the Early Termination Date, a sum of (i) the unamortized straight line balance of the Landlord’s Allowance and leasing commissions, and (ii) three (3) months of the Monthly Basic Rental and Additional Rent which otherwise would have been due
for the three (3) month period after the Early Termination Date (the “Termination Fee”). 
  
 (c) Tenant Default. If at the time when Landlord receives the Termination Notice or on the Early Termination Date, Tenant shall be in material or
monetary default under this lease (after the expiration of the applicable notice and cure period), Landlord shall have the right, by giving written notice thereof to Tenant, to cancel Tenant’s exercise of the Termination Option by Tenant. In
such event, Tenant shall have no right, and Landlord shall have no obligation, to terminate this Lease pursuant to such exercise of the Termination Option. 
  
 (d) Limitations on the Termination Option. If Tenant fails to exercise the Termination Option or pay the Termination Fee within the respective time
periods provided for in this Rider, such failure shall automatically cancel the Termination Option, and Tenant shall have no right, and Landlord shall have no obligation, to terminate this Lease pursuant to the Termination Option.Amended and Restated Credit Agreement

 This AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of April 9, 2004
among NEXTMEDIA OPERATING, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Borrower”), the other Credit Parties signatory hereto, GENERAL ELECTRIC CAPITAL CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (in its individual capacity, “GE
Capital”), for itself, as Lender, and as Agent for the Lenders, and the other Lenders signatory hereto from time to time. 
  
 RECITALS 
  
 WHEREAS, Borrower, Nextmedia Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Holdings”), the lenders party thereto, and Bankers Trust Company, as
administrative agent (the “Prior Agent”) are party to that certain Credit Agreement dated as of July 31, 2000 (as amended prior to the date hereof, the “Prior Credit Agreement”); 
  
 WHEREAS, concurrently herewith the Prior Agent has resigned as administrative
agent under the Prior Credit Agreement and Borrower and the Lenders have appointed GE Capital as administrative agent under the Prior Credit Agreement as amended hereby, 
  
 WHEREAS, GE Capital has accepted such appointment as administrative agent under this Agreement in accordance with the terms
and conditions hereof; 
  
 WHEREAS, Borrower has requested that GE
Capital and the Lenders amend and restate the terms and conditions of the Prior Credit Agreement pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth herein; 
  
 WHEREAS, the Lenders and GE Capital have agreed to amend and restate the Prior Credit Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof;
 
  
 WHEREAS, capitalized terms used in this Agreement
shall have the meanings ascribed to them in Annex A and, for purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the rules of construction set forth in Annex A shall govern. All Annexes, Disclosure Schedules, Exhibits and other
attachments (collectively, “Appendices”) hereto, or expressly identified to this Agreement, are incorporated herein by reference, and taken together with this Agreement, shall constitute but a single agreement. These Recitals shall
be construed as part of the Agreement. 
  
 NOW, THEREFORE, in
consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants hereinafter contained, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree to amend and restate the Prior Credit
Agreement in its entirety as follows: 
  
 1. AMOUNT AND TERMS
OF CREDIT 
  
 1.1 Credit Facilities. 
  
 (a) Revolving Credit Facility. 
  
 (i) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Revolving Lender
agrees to make available to Borrower from time to time until the Commitment Termination Date its Pro Rata Share of revolving credit advances (each, a “Revolving Credit 

 
Advance”). The Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loan of any Revolving Lender shall not at any time exceed its separate Revolving Loan Commitment.
The obligations of each Revolving Lender hereunder shall be several and not joint. Until the Commitment Termination Date and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Borrower may from time to time borrow, repay and reborrow under this Section
1.1(a); provided, that the amount of any Revolving Credit Advance to be made at any time shall not exceed the Borrowing Availability at such time. Each Revolving Credit Advance shall be made on notice by Borrower to one of the representatives of
Agent identified in Schedule 1.1 at the address specified therein. Any such notice must be given no later than (1) 12:00 noon (New York time) on the Business Day of the proposed Revolving Credit Advance, in the case of an Index Rate Loan, or
(2) 12:00 noon (New York time) on the date which is three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed Revolving Credit Advance, in the case of a LIBOR Loan. Each such notice (a ”Notice of Revolving Credit Advance”) must be given in
writing (by telecopy or overnight courier) substantially in the form of Exhibit 1.1(a)(i), and shall include the information required in such Exhibit and such other information as may be required by Agent. If Borrower desires to have the Revolving
Credit Advances bear interest by reference to a LIBOR Rate, it must comply with Section 1.5(e). 
  
 (ii) Except as provided in Section 1.12, Borrower shall execute and deliver to each Revolving Lender who so requests, a note to evidence the
Revolving Loan Commitment of that Revolving Lender. Each note shall be in the principal amount of the Revolving Loan Commitment of the applicable Revolving Lender, dated the Closing Date and substantially in the form of Exhibit 1.1(a)(ii)
(each a “Revolving Note” and, collectively, the “Revolving Notes”). Each Revolving Note shall represent the obligation of Borrower to pay the amount of the applicable Revolving Lender’s Revolving Loan
Commitment or, if less, such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Revolving Credit Advances to Borrower together with interest thereon as prescribed in Section 1.5. The entire unpaid balance
of the Revolving Loan and all other non-contingent Obligations shall be immediately due and payable in full in immediately available funds on the Commitment Termination Date. 
  
 (b) Reliance on Notices. Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall be fully protected in
relying upon, any Notice of Revolving Credit Advance, Notice of Conversion/Continuation or similar notice believed by Agent to be genuine. Agent may assume that each Person executing and delivering any notice in accordance herewith was duly
authorized, unless the responsible individual acting thereon for Agent has actual knowledge to the contrary. 
  
 1.2 Letters of Credit. Subject to and in accordance with the terms and conditions contained herein and in Annex B, Borrower shall have the
right to request, and Revolving Lenders agree to incur, or purchase participations in, Letter of Credit Obligations in respect of Borrower. 
  
 1.3 Prepayments. 
  
 (a) Voluntary Prepayments; Reductions in Revolving Loan Commitments. Borrower may at any time on at least three (3) Business
Days’ prior written notice to Agent permanently reduce (but not terminate) the Revolving Loan 

  

 -2- 

 
Commitment; provided that (A) any such prepayments or reductions shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $500,000 in
excess of such amount, (B) the Revolving Loan Commitment shall not be reduced to an amount less than $25,000,000, and (C) after giving effect to such reductions, Borrower shall comply with Section 1.3(b)(i). Borrower may at any time on at
least three (3) Business Days prior written notice to Agent terminate the Revolving Loan Commitment, provided that upon such termination all Loans and other Obligations shall be immediately due and payable in full and all Letter of Credit
Obligations shall be cash collateralized or otherwise satisfied in accordance with Annex B hereto. Any voluntary prepayment and any reduction or termination of the Revolving Loan Commitment must be accompanied by payment of any LIBOR funding
breakage costs in accordance with Section 1.13(b). Upon any such reduction or termination of the Revolving Loan Commitment, Borrower’s right to request Revolving Credit Advances, or request that Letter of Credit Obligations be incurred
on its behalf, shall simultaneously be permanently reduced or terminated, as the case may be; provided that a permanent reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitment shall not require a corresponding pro rata reduction in the L/C Sublimit. Each
notice of partial prepayment shall designate the Loan or other Obligations to which such prepayment is to be applied 
  
 (b) Mandatory Prepayments. 
  
 (i) If at any time the outstanding balances of the Revolving Loan exceed the Maximum Amount, Borrower shall immediately repay the aggregate outstanding
Revolving Credit Advances to the extent required to eliminate such excess. If any such excess remains after repayment in full of the aggregate outstanding Revolving Credit Advances, Borrower shall provide cash collateral for the Letter of Credit
Obligations in the manner set forth in Annex B to the extent required to eliminate such excess and shall release such cash collateral in accordance with Annex B upon the earlier of (A) termination of the Letter of Credit Obligations
secured thereby or (B) elimination of the excess requiring such cash collateral. 
  
 (ii) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then immediately upon receipt by any Credit Party of any cash proceeds of (A) any Asset Sale or (B) any other asset disposition to the extent the
aggregate amount of such cash proceeds for all such other asset dispositions exceeds $5,000,000, Borrower shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal to all proceeds, net of (1) commissions and other reasonable and customary transaction costs, fees
and expenses properly attributable to such transaction and payable by such Credit Party in connection therewith (in each case, paid to non-Affiliates), (2) transfer taxes, (3) amounts payable to holders of senior Liens on such asset (to the extent
such Liens constitute Permitted Encumbrances hereunder), if any, and (4) an appropriate reserve for income taxes in accordance with GAAP in connection therewith. Any such prepayment shall be applied in accordance with Section 1.3(c). 

  
 (iii) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing and Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries, including Borrower, issues Stock or Indebtedness, then no later than the Business Day following the date of receipt of the proceeds thereof, Borrower shall prepay the Loans (and cash collateralize
Letter of Credit Obligations) in 

  

 -3- 

 
an amount equal to all such proceeds, net of underwriting discounts and commissions and other reasonable costs paid to non-Affiliates in connection
therewith. Any such prepayment shall be applied in accordance with Section 1.3(c). 
  
 (c) Application of Certain Mandatory Prepayments. Any prepayments made by Borrower pursuant to Sections 1.3(b)(ii) or
(b)(iii) above shall be applied as follows: first, to Fees and reimbursable expenses of Agent then due and payable pursuant to any of the Loan Documents; second, to interest then due and payable on the Revolving Credit Advances;
third, to the outstanding principal balance of Revolving Credit Advances until the same has been paid in full; and fourth, to any Letter of Credit Obligations, to provide cash collateral therefor in the manner set forth in Annex
B, until all such Letter of Credit Obligations have been fully cash collateralized in the manner set forth in Annex B; provided, however, any cash collateral established in accordance with this Section 1.3 shall be
released in accordance the provisions of Annex B. The Revolving Loan Commitment shall be permanently reduced by the amount of any such prepayments at the option of the Requisite Lenders in their sole discretion. 
  
 (d) Application of Prepayments from Insurance Proceeds
and Condemnation Proceeds. Prepayments from insurance or condemnation proceeds in accordance with Section 5.2 and the Mortgage(s), respectively, shall be applied to the Revolving Credit Advances. The Revolving Loan Commitment shall not be
permanently reduced by the amount of any such prepayments unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Requisite Lenders exercise their right to require such reduction in their sole discretion. If the precise amount of insurance
or condemnation proceeds allocable to Inventory as compared to Equipment, Fixtures and Real Estate are not otherwise determined, the allocation and application of those proceeds shall be determined by Agent, subject to the approval of Requisite
Lenders. 
  
 (e) No Implied Consent.
Nothing in this Section 1.3 shall be construed to constitute Agent’s or any Lender’s consent to any transaction that is not permitted by other provisions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. 
  
 1.4 Use of Proceeds. Borrower shall utilize the proceeds of the Loans
solely for (i) the Restatement (and to pay any related transaction fees and expenses) (ii) ordinary working capital purposes, (iii) payment of interest, (iv) financing of Capital Expenditures,(v) repurchase of Outstanding Bonds in an amount not to
exceed $20,000,000 per Fiscal Quarter, (vi) Permitted Acquisitions, (vii) payment of Dividends in accordance with the terms and conditions contained in Section 6.3, and (vi) the financing of Borrower’s other general corporate needs.
Disclosure Schedule (1.4) contains a description of Borrower’s sources and uses of funds as of the Closing Date, including Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations to be made or incurred on that date, and a funds flow memorandum detailing
how funds from each source are to be transferred to particular uses. 
  
 1.5 Interest and Applicable Margins. 
  
 (a) Borrower shall pay interest to Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders, in arrears on each applicable Interest Payment Date, at the following rates with 

  

 -4- 

 
respect to the Revolving Credit Advances, the Index Rate plus the Applicable Revolver Index Margin per annum or, at the election of Borrower, the applicable
LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Revolver LIBOR Margin per annum. 
  
 As of the Closing Date, the Applicable Margins are as follows: 
  

				
	 Applicable Revolver Index Margin
	  	2.00	%
		
	 Applicable Revolver LIBOR Margin
	  	3.00	%
		
	 Applicable L/C Margin
	  	3.00	%

  
 The Applicable Margins
shall be adjusted by reference to the following grids: 
  

												
	 	 	Total Leverage Ratio

	 	 Applicable
Revolver
 Index Margin

	 	 	Applicable
Revolver
LIBOR
Margin

	 	 	Applicable

	Level I	 	> 7.50	 	3.00	%	 	4.00	%	 	4.00	%
	Level II	 	> 7.00, but < 7.50	 	2.50	%	 	3.50	%	 	3.50	%
	Level III	 	> 6.5, but < 7.00	 	2.25	%	 	3.25	%	 	3.25	%
	Level IV	 	> 6.00, but < 6.50	 	2.00	%	 	3.00	%	 	3.00	%
	Level V	 	> 5.50, but < 6.00	 	1.75	%	 	2.75	%	 	2.75	%
	Level VI	 	> 5.00, but < 5.50	 	1.50	%	 	2.50	%	 	2.50	%
	Level VII	 	< 5.00	 	1.25	%	 	2.25	%	 	2.25	%

  
 Adjustments in the
Applicable Margins commencing with the Fiscal Quarter ending March 31, 2004 shall be implemented quarterly on a prospective basis, commencing two (2) Business Days after the date of delivery to Lenders of the quarterly unaudited or annual audited
(as applicable) Financial Statements evidencing the need for an adjustment. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Applicable Margins shall not be reduced below Level IV prior to June 30, 2004. Concurrently with the delivery of those Financial
Statements, Borrower shall deliver to Agent and Lenders a certificate, signed by its chief financial officer, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for the continuance of, or any change in, the Applicable Margins. Failure to timely deliver
such Financial Statements shall, in addition to any other remedy provided for in this Agreement, result in an increase in the Applicable Margins to the highest level set forth in the foregoing grid, until the second Business Day following the
delivery of those Financial Statements demonstrating that such an increase is not required. If a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time any reduction in the Applicable Margins is to be implemented, that reduction
shall be deferred until the second Business Day following the date on which such Default or Event of Default is waived or cured. 
  
 (b) If any payment on any Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof will be extended to the
next succeeding Business Day (except as set forth in the definition of LIBOR Period) and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension. 
  

 -5- 

 (c) All computations of Fees calculated on a per annum basis and interest shall be made
by Agent on the basis of a 360-day year (except with respect to Index Rates Loans, which shall be based on a 365/366-day year), in each case for the actual number of days occurring in the period for which such interest and Fees are payable. The
Index Rate is a floating rate determined for each day. Each determination by Agent of interest rates and Fees hereunder shall be presumptive evidence of the correctness of such rates and Fees. 
  
 (d) So long as an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing under Section 8.1(a) or (e), or so long as any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and at the election of Agent (or upon the written request of Requisite Lenders) confirmed by written notice from Agent to
Borrower, the interest rates applicable to the Loans and the Letter of Credit Fees shall be increased by two percentage points (2%) per annum above the rates of interest or the rate of such Fees otherwise applicable hereunder unless Agent or
Requisite Lenders elect to impose a smaller increase (the “Default Rate”), and all outstanding Obligations shall bear interest at the Default Rate applicable to such Obligations. Interest and Letter of Credit Fees at the Default
Rate shall accrue from the initial date of such Event of Default until that Event of Default is cured or waived and shall be payable upon demand. 
  
 (e) Subject to the conditions precedent set forth in Section 2.2, Borrower shall have the option to (i) request that any Revolving
Credit Advance be made as a LIBOR Loan, (ii) convert at any time all or any part of outstanding Loans from Index Rate Loans to LIBOR Loans, (iii) convert any LIBOR Loan to an Index Rate Loan, subject to payment of LIBOR breakage costs in accordance
with Section 1.13(b) if such conversion is made prior to the expiration of the LIBOR Period applicable thereto, or (iv) continue all or any portion of any Loan as a LIBOR Loan upon the expiration of the applicable LIBOR Period and the
succeeding LIBOR Period of that continued Loan shall commence on the first day after the last day of the LIBOR Period of the Loan to be continued. Any Loan or group of Loans having the same proposed LIBOR Period to be made or continued as, or
converted into, a LIBOR Loan must be in a minimum amount of $500,000 and integral multiples of $500,000 in excess of such amount. Any such election must be 12:00 noon (New York time) on the third Business Day prior to (1) the date of any proposed
Revolving Credit Advance which is to bear interest at the LIBOR Rate, (2) the end of each LIBOR Period with respect to any LIBOR Loans to be continued as such, or (3) the date on which Borrower wishes to convert any Index Rate Loan to a LIBOR Loan
for a LIBOR Period designated by Borrower in such election. If no election is received with respect to a LIBOR Loan by 12:00 noon (New York time) on the third Business Day prior to the end of the LIBOR Period with respect thereto (or if a Default or
an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or the additional conditions precedent set forth in Section 2.2 shall not have been satisfied), that LIBOR Loan shall be converted to an Index Rate Loan at the end of its LIBOR Period.
Borrower must make such election by notice to Agent in writing, by telecopy or overnight courier. In the case of any conversion or continuation, such election must be made pursuant to a written notice (a “Notice of
Conversion/Continuation”) in the form of Exhibit 1.5(e). 
  

 -6- 

 (f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 1.5, if a
court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final order that the rate of interest payable hereunder exceeds the highest rate of interest permissible under law (the “Maximum Lawful Rate”), then so long as the Maximum Lawful Rate
would be so exceeded, the rate of interest payable hereunder shall be equal to the Maximum Lawful Rate; provided, however, that if at any time thereafter the rate of interest payable hereunder is less than the Maximum Lawful Rate,
Borrower shall continue to pay interest hereunder at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest received by Agent, on behalf of Lenders, is equal to the total interest that would have been received had the interest rate payable
hereunder been (but for the operation of this paragraph) the interest rate payable since the Closing Date as otherwise provided in this Agreement. In no event shall the total interest received by any Lender pursuant to the terms hereof exceed the
amount that such Lender could lawfully have received had the interest due hereunder been calculated for the full term hereof at the Maximum Lawful Rate. 
  
 1.6 Reserved. 
  
 1.7 Reserved. 
  
 1.8 Reserved. 
  
 1.9 Fees. 
  
 (a) Borrower shall pay to GE Capital, individually, the Fees specified in the GE Capital Fee Letter. 
  
 (b) As additional compensation for the Revolving Lenders,
Borrower shall pay to Agent, for the ratable benefit of such Lenders, in arrears, on the first Business Day of each month prior to the Commitment Termination Date and on the Commitment Termination Date, a Fee for Borrower’s non-use of available
funds in an amount calculated as follows: (i) if the average daily closing balances of the Revolving Loan outstanding during the period for which the such Fee is due is less than or equal to 50% of the average Maximum Amount during such period, then
0.75% per annum or (ii) if the average daily closing balances of the Revolving Loan outstanding during the period for which the such Fee is due is greater than or equal to 50% of the average Maximum Amount during such period, then 0.50% per annum,
in each case calculated on the basis of a 360 day year for actual days elapsed, multiplied by the difference between (x) the Maximum Amount (as it may be increased or reduced from time to time) and (y) the average for the period of the daily closing
balances of the Revolving Loan outstanding during the period for which the such Fee is due. 
  
 (c) Borrower shall pay to Agent, for the ratable benefit of Revolving Lenders, the Letter of Credit Fee as provided in Annex B.

  

 -7- 

 1.10 Receipt of Payments. Borrower shall make each payment under this Agreement not later than
2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the day when due in immediately available funds in Dollars to the Collection Account. Payments received after 2:00 p.m. New York time on any Business Day or on a day that is not a Business Day shall be deemed to have
been received on the following Business Day. 
  
 1.11
Application and Allocation of Payments. 
  
 (a) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (i) payments matching specific scheduled payments for costs, interest or fees then due shall be applied to those scheduled payments; (ii) voluntary prepayments shall be
applied in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.3(a); and (iii) mandatory prepayments shall be applied as set forth in Sections 1.3(c) and 1.3(d). All payments and prepayments applied to a particular Loan shall be applied
ratably to the portion thereof held by each Lender as determined by its Pro Rata Share. As to any other payment, and as to all payments made when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or following the Commitment Termination Date,
Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of any and all payments received from or on behalf of Borrower, and Borrower hereby irrevocably agrees that Agent shall have the continuing exclusive right to apply any and all
such payments against the Obligations as Agent may deem advisable notwithstanding any previous entry by Agent in the Loan Account or any other books and records. In the absence of a specific determination by Agent with respect thereto, payments
shall be applied to amounts then due and payable in the following order: (1) to Fees and Agent’s expenses reimbursable hereunder; (2) to interest on Revolving Loans; (3) to principal payments on the Loans and to provide cash collateral for
Letter of Credit Obligations in the manner described in Annex B, ratably to the aggregate, combined principal balance of the Loans and outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations; and (4) to all other Obligations including expenses of Lenders to
the extent reimbursable under Section 11.3. 
  
 (b) Agent is authorized to, and at its sole election may, charge to the Revolving Loan balance on behalf of Borrower and cause to be paid all Fees, expenses, Charges, costs (including insurance premiums in accordance with Section
5.2) and interest and principal, other than principal of the Revolving Loan, owing by Borrower under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents if and to the extent Borrower fails to pay promptly any such amounts as and when due, even if
the amount of such charges would exceed Borrowing Availability at such time. At Agent’s option and to the extent permitted by law, any charges so made shall constitute part of the Revolving Loan hereunder. 
  
 1.12 Loan Account and Accounting. Agent shall maintain a loan account
(the “Loan Account”) on its books to record: all Advances, all Letters of Credit, all Letter of Credit Obligations, all participations in the Letter of Credit Obligations, the amount of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower
for each drawing made under a Letter of Credit, all payments made by Borrower, and all other debits and credits as provided in this Agreement with respect to the Loans or any other Obligations. All entries in the Loan Account shall be made in
accordance with Agent’s customary accounting practices as in effect from time to time. The 

  

 -8- 

 
balance in the Loan Account, as recorded on Agent’s most recent printout or other written statement, shall, absent manifest error, be presumptive
evidence of the amounts due and owing to Agent and Lenders by Borrower; provided that any failure to so record or any error in so recording shall not limit or otherwise affect Borrower’s duty to pay the Obligations. Agent shall render to
Borrower a monthly accounting of transactions with respect to the Loans setting forth the balance of the Loan Account for the immediately preceding month. Unless Borrower notifies Agent in writing of any objection to any such accounting
(specifically describing the basis for such objection), within thirty (30) days after the date thereof, each and every such accounting shall be presumptive evidence of all matters reflected therein. Only those items expressly objected to in such
notice shall be deemed to be disputed by Borrower. Notwithstanding any provision herein contained to the contrary, any Lender may elect (which election may be revoked) to dispense with the issuance of Notes to that Lender and may rely on the Loan
Account as evidence of the amount of Obligations from time to time owing to it. 
  
 1.13 Indemnity. 
  
 (a) Each Credit Party that is a signatory hereto shall jointly and severally indemnify and hold harmless each of Agent, Lenders and their respective Affiliates, and each such Person’s respective officers, directors, employees,
attorneys, agents and representatives (each, an “Indemnified Person”), from and against any and all suits, actions, proceedings, claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and
disbursements and other reasonable costs of investigation or defense, including those incurred upon any appeal) that may be instituted or asserted against or incurred by any such Indemnified Person as the result of credit having been extended,
suspended or terminated under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the administration of such credit, and in connection with or arising out of the transactions contemplated hereunder and thereunder and any actions or failures to act in
connection therewith, including any and all Environmental Liabilities and legal costs and expenses arising out of or incurred in connection with disputes between or among any parties to any of the Loan Documents (collectively, “Indemnified
Liabilities”); provided, that no such Credit Party shall be liable for any indemnification to an Indemnified Person to the extent that any such suit, action, proceeding, claim, damage, loss, liability or expense results from that
Indemnified Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct; provided, further, no such Credit Party shall be liable for any indemnification to an Indemnified Person to the extent that any such suit, action, proceeding, claim,
damage, loss, liability or expense results solely from a dispute between or among one or more of the Lenders and/or Agent. NO INDEMNIFIED PERSON SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE TO ANY OTHER PARTY TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, ANY SUCCESSOR, ASSIGNEE OR THIRD
PARTY BENEFICIARY OF SUCH PERSON OR ANY OTHER PERSON ASSERTING CLAIMS DERIVATIVELY THROUGH SUCH PARTY, FOR INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES WHICH MAY BE ALLEGED AS A RESULT OF CREDIT HAVING BEEN EXTENDED, SUSPENDED OR
TERMINATED UNDER ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR AS A RESULT OF ANY OTHER TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER. 
  

 -9- 

 (b) To induce Lenders to provide the LIBOR Rate option on the terms provided herein, if
(i) any LIBOR Loans are repaid in whole or in part prior to the last day of any applicable LIBOR Period (whether that repayment is made pursuant to any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or occurs as a result of acceleration, by
operation of law or otherwise); (ii) Borrower shall default in payment when due of the principal amount of or interest on any LIBOR Loan; (iii) Borrower shall refuse to accept any borrowing of, or shall request a termination of, any borrowing of,
conversion into or continuation of, LIBOR Loans after Borrower has given notice requesting the same in accordance herewith; or (iv) Borrower shall fail to make any prepayment of a LIBOR Loan after Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance
herewith, then Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless each Lender from and against all losses, reasonable costs and reasonable expenses to the extent resulting from or arising from any of the foregoing. Such indemnification shall include any
loss (including loss of margin) or reasonable expense arising from the reemployment of funds obtained by it or from fees payable to terminate deposits from which such funds were obtained. For the purpose of calculating amounts payable to a Lender
under this subsection, each Lender shall be deemed to have actually funded its relevant LIBOR Loan through the purchase of a deposit bearing interest at the LIBOR Rate in an amount equal to the amount of that LIBOR Loan and having a maturity
comparable to the relevant LIBOR Period; provided, that each Lender may fund each of its LIBOR Loans in any manner it sees fit, and the foregoing assumption shall be utilized only for the calculation of amounts payable under this subsection. This
covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder. As promptly as practicable under the circumstances, each Lender shall provide Borrower with its written calculation of all
amounts payable pursuant to this Section 1.13(b) in reasonable detail, and such calculation shall be binding absent manifest error on the parties hereto unless Borrower shall object in writing within fifteen (15) Business Days of receipt
thereof, specifying the basis for such objection in reasonable detail. 
  
 1.14 Reserved. 
  
 1.15 Taxes. 

 
 (a) Except as otherwise provided in this Section
1.15, any and all payments by Borrower hereunder or under the Notes or Letters of Credit shall be made, in accordance with this Section 1.15, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future Taxes. If Borrower
shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under the Notes or Letters of Credit, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as much as shall be necessary so that after making all required deductions
(including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 1.15) Agent, Lenders or L/C Issuers, as applicable, receive an amount equal to the sum they would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) Borrower
shall make such deductions, and (iii) Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxing or other authority in accordance with applicable law. Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment of Taxes, Borrower shall furnish to
Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof. 
  

 -10- 

 (b) Each Credit Party that is a signatory hereto shall jointly and severally indemnify
and, within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of written demand therefor, pay Agent and each Lender and each L/C Issuer, as the case may be, for the full amount of Taxes (including any Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this
Section 1.15) paid by Agent or such Lender or L/C Issuer, as appropriate, and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally asserted.
Agent and such Lender shall cooperate to a reasonable extent with the relevant Credit Party in contesting any Indemnified Taxes (at Borrower’s sole cost and expense) that such Credit Party reasonably believes have been incorrectly or illegally
asserted; provided, however, that Agent or such Lender shall have no further obligation to cooperate to the extent that Agent or such Lender reasonably determines that such further cooperation would be materially disadvantageous to
Agent or such Lender. 
  
 (c) (i) Each Lender,
each L/C Issuer and each Agent organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States (each a “Foreign Lender”) as to which payments to be made under this Agreement or under the Notes are exempt from United States
withholding tax under an applicable statute or tax treaty shall provide to Borrower and Agent a properly completed and executed IRS Form W-8ECI or Form W-8BEN or other applicable form, certificate or document prescribed by the IRS or the United
States certifying as to such Foreign Lender’s entitlement to such exemption (a “Certificate of Exemption”). Any foreign Person that seeks to become a Lender, L/C Issuer or Agent under this Agreement shall provide a Certificate
of Exemption to Borrower and Agent prior to becoming a Lender, L/C Issuer or Agent, as the case may be, hereunder. No foreign Person may become a Lender, an L/C Issuer or Agent hereunder if such Person fails to deliver a Certificate of Exemption in
advance of becoming a Lender, an L/C Issuer or Agent, as the case may be. 
  
 (ii) Each Lender, each L/C Issuer and each Agent that is a United States person as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the IRC other than an exempt recipient based on the indicators as described in Treasury Regulation
Section 1.6049-4(c)(1)(ii), including, without limitation, any entity treated as a corporation based on the indicators as described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.6049-4(c)(1)(ii)(A) (each, a “U.S. Lender”) shall provide in advance of
becoming a Lender, an L/C Issuer or Agent, as the case may be, to Borrower and Agent a properly completed and executed IRS Form W-9 (certifying that such U.S. Lender is entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax) or any
successor form. 
  
 (iii) Each Lender, each L/C
Issuer and Agent, from time to time after submitting the forms, certificates or documents referred to in this Section 1.15, shall submit to the Borrower and the Agent such additional duly completed and signed copies of one or the other such forms,
certificates or documents (or such successor forms, certificates or other documents as shall be adopted from time to time by the IRS or relevant taxing authorities) (A) on or before the date that any such form, certificate, or document expires or
becomes obsolete as reasonably requested by the Borrower or Agent or (B) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form, certificate or document previously delivered by it to the Borrower and Agent. 
  

 -11- 

 1.16 Capital Adequacy; Increased Costs; Illegality. 
  
 (a) If any law, treaty, governmental (or quasi-governmental)
rule, regulation, guideline or order regarding capital adequacy, reserve requirements or similar requirements or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy, reserve requirements or similar requirements (whether
or not having the force of law), in each case, adopted after the Closing Date, from any central bank or other Governmental Authority increases or would have the effect of increasing the amount of capital, reserves or other funds required to be
maintained by such Lender and thereby reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder, then Borrower shall from time to time upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to Agent) pay
to Agent, for the account of such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such reduction. A certificate as to the amount of that reduction and showing the basis of the computation thereof submitted by such Lender to
Borrower and to Agent shall be presumptive evidence of the matters set forth therein. 
  
 (b) If, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change in any law or regulation (or any change in the interpretation thereof) or (ii)
the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), in each case adopted after the Closing Date, there shall be any increase in the cost to any Lender of
agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any Loan, then Borrower shall from time to time, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to Agent), pay to Agent for the account of such Lender additional amounts sufficient to
compensate such Lender for such increased cost. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, submitted to Borrower and to Agent by such Lender, shall be presumptive evidence of the matters set forth therein. Each Lender agrees that, as
promptly as practicable after it becomes aware of any circumstances referred to above which would result in any such increased cost, the affected Lender shall, to the extent not inconsistent with such Lender’s internal policies of general
application, use reasonable commercial efforts to minimize costs and expenses incurred by it and payable to it by Borrower pursuant to this Section 1.16(b). 
  
 (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the introduction of or any change in any
law or regulation (or any change in the interpretation thereof) shall make it unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority shall assert that it is unlawful, for any Lender to agree to make or to make or to continue to fund or
maintain any LIBOR Loan, then, unless that Lender is able to make or to continue to fund or to maintain such LIBOR Loan at another branch or office of that Lender without, in that Lender’s reasonable opinion, materially adversely affecting it
or its Loans or the income obtained therefrom, on notice thereof and demand therefor by such Lender to Borrower through Agent, (i) the obligation of such Lender to agree to make or to make or to continue to fund or maintain LIBOR Loans shall
terminate and (ii) Borrower shall forthwith prepay in full all outstanding LIBOR Loans owing to such Lender, together with interest accrued thereon, unless Borrower, within five (5) Business Days after the delivery of such notice and demand,
converts all LIBOR Loans into Index Rate Loans. 
  

 -12- 

 (d) Within thirty (30) days after receipt by Borrower of written notice and demand from
any Lender (an “Affected Lender”) for payment of additional amounts or increased costs as provided in Sections 1.15(a), 1.15(b), 1.16(a) or 1.16(b), Borrower may, at its option, notify Agent and such Affected Lender of its
intention to replace the Affected Lender. So long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Borrower, with the consent of Agent (not to be unreasonable delayed or withheld provided such Person is reasonably satisfactory to
Agent), may obtain, at Borrower’s expense, a replacement Lender (“Replacement Lender”) for the Affected Lender, which Replacement Lender must be reasonably satisfactory to Agent. If Borrower obtains a Replacement Lender within
ninety (90) days following notice of its intention to do so, the Affected Lender must sell and assign its Loans and Commitments to such Replacement Lender for an amount equal to the principal balance of all Loans held by the Affected Lender and all
accrued interest and Fees with respect thereto through the date of such sale and such assignment shall not require the payment of an assignment fee to Agent; provided, that Borrower shall have reimbursed such Affected Lender for the
additional amounts or increased costs that it is entitled to receive under this Agreement through the date of such sale and assignment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall not have the right to obtain a Replacement Lender if the Affected
Lender rescinds its demand for increased costs or additional amounts within fifteen (15) days following its receipt of Borrower’s notice of intention to replace such Affected Lender. Furthermore, if Borrower gives a notice of intention to
replace and does not so replace such Affected Lender within ninety (90) days thereafter, Borrower’s rights under this Section 1.16(d) shall terminate with respect to such Affected Lender and Borrower shall promptly pay all increased
costs or additional amounts demanded by such Affected Lender pursuant to Sections 1.15(a), 1.15(b), 1.16(a) and 1.16(b). 
  
 1.17 Single Loan. All Loans to Borrower and all of the other Obligations of Borrower arising under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents
shall constitute one general obligation of Borrower secured, until the Termination Date, by all of the Collateral. 
  
 2. CONDITIONS PRECEDENT 
  
 2.1 Conditions to the Initial Loans. No Lender shall be obligated to make any Loan or incur any Letter of Credit Obligations on the Closing Date,
or to take, fulfill, or perform any other action hereunder, until the following conditions have been satisfied or provided for in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Agent, or waived in writing by Agent and Requisite Lenders: 
  
 (a) Credit Agreement; Loan Documents. This Agreement
or counterparts hereof shall have been duly executed by, and delivered to, Borrower, each other Credit Party, Agent and Lenders; and Agent shall have received such documents, instruments, agreements and legal opinions as Agent shall reasonably
request in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including all those listed in the Closing Checklist attached hereto as Annex D, each in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
Agent. 
  

 -13- 

 (b) Approvals. Agent shall have received (i) satisfactory evidence that the Credit
Parties have obtained all required consents and approvals of all Persons including all requisite Governmental Authorities, including, without limitation, the FCC, to the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents and the consummation of the Related Transactions or (ii) an officer’s certificate in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent affirming that no such consents or approvals are required. 
  
 (c) Payment of Fees. Borrower shall have paid the
Fees required to be paid on the Closing Date in the respective amounts specified in Section 1.9 (including the Fees specified in the GE Capital Fee Letter), and shall have reimbursed Agent for all fees, costs and expenses of closing presented
as of the Closing Date.

 (e) Due Diligence. Agent shall have completed its
business, environmental, FCC license and legal due diligence, with results satisfactory to Agent. 
  
 (f) Consummation of Related Transactions. Agent shall have received fully executed copies of the Agency Assignment Documents and
final and complete copies of each of the other Related Transactions Documents, each of which shall be in full force and effect in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent. The Related Transactions shall have been consummated in accordance
with the terms of the Related Transactions Documents. 
  
 2.2
Further Conditions to Each Loan. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no Lender shall be obligated to fund any Advance, convert or continue any Loan as a LIBOR Loan or incur any Letter of Credit Obligation, if, as of the date
thereof: 
  
 (a) any representation or warranty
by any Credit Party contained herein or in any other Loan Document is untrue or incorrect as of such date as determined by Agent or Requisite Lenders, except to the extent that such representation or warranty expressly relates to an earlier date and
except for changes therein expressly permitted or expressly contemplated by this Agreement, and Agent or Requisite Revolving Lenders have determined not to make such Advance, convert or continue any Loan as LIBOR Loan or incur such Letter of Credit
Obligation as a result of the fact that such warranty or representation is untrue or incorrect; 
  
 (b) (i) any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result after giving effect to any Advance (or the
incurrence of any Letter of Credit Obligation), and Agent or Requisite Revolving Lenders shall have determined not to make Advance, convert or continue any Loan as a LIBOR Loan or incur any Letter of Credit Obligation as a result of that Default or
Event of Default; or 
  

 -14- 

 (c) after giving effect to any Advance (or the incurrence of any Letter of Credit
Obligations), the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loan would exceed the Maximum Amount. 
  
 The request and acceptance by Borrower of the proceeds of any Advance, the incurrence of any Letter of Credit Obligations or the conversion or continuation of any Loan into, or as, a LIBOR Loan shall be deemed to
constitute, as of the date thereof, (i) a representation and warranty by Borrower that the conditions in this Section 2.2 have been satisfied and (ii) a reaffirmation by Borrower of the granting and continuance of Agent’s Liens, on
behalf of itself and Lenders, pursuant to the Collateral Documents. 
  
 3. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 
  
 To induce
Lenders to make the Loans and to incur Letter of Credit Obligations, the Credit Parties executing this Agreement, jointly and severally, make the following representations and warranties to Agent and each Lender with respect to all Credit Parties,
each and all of which shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement (it being understood and agreed that any representation or warranty which by its terms is made as of a specified date shall be required to be true and correct only as
of such specified date). 
  
 3.1 Organizational Status.
Each of Holdings and each of its Subsidiaries (i) is a duly organized and validly existing corporation, partnership or limited liability company, as the case may be, in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, (ii) has
the corporate, partnership or limited liability company power and authority, as the case may be, to own its property and assets and to transact the business in which it is engaged and presently proposes to engage and (iii) is duly qualified and is
authorized to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction where the ownership, leasing or operation of its property or the conduct of its business requires such qualifications except for failures to be so qualified which, either
individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 3.2 Power and Authority. Each Credit Party has the corporate, partnership or limited liability company power and authority, as the case may be, to
execute, deliver and perform the terms and provisions of each of the Loan Documents to which it is party and has taken all necessary corporate, partnership or limited liability company action, as the case may be, to authorize the execution, delivery
and performance by it of each of such Loan Documents. Each Credit Party has duly executed and delivered each of the Loan Documents to which it is party, and each of such Loan Documents constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation enforceable
in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that the enforceability thereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws generally affecting creditors’ rights and by equitable
principles (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law). 
  
 3.3 No Violation. Neither the execution, delivery or performance by any Credit Party of the Loan Documents to which it is a party, nor compliance by it with the terms and provisions thereof, (i) will contravene
any provision of any applicable law, statute, rule or regulation or any applicable order, writ, injunction or decree of any court or governmental 

  

 -15- 

 
instrumentality, (ii) will conflict with or result in any breach of any of the terms, covenants, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under,
or result in the creation or imposition of (or the obligation to create or impose) any Lien (except pursuant to the Collateral Documents) upon any of the property or assets of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of any
indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, credit agreement or loan agreement, or any other material agreement, contract or instrument, in each case to which Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which it or any of its property or assets is
bound or to which it may be subject, or (iii) will violate any provision of the certificate or articles of incorporation, certificate of partnership, partnership agreement, certificate of formation, limited liability company agreement or by-laws (or
equivalent organizational documents), as applicable, of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries. 
  
 3.4 Approvals. No order, consent, approval, license, authorization or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with (except for (i) those that are immaterial, (ii) the filing of UCC financing
statements naming Agent as the secured party pursuant to the Loan Documents (or the assignment to Agent of existing UCC financing statements naming the Prior Agent as secured party) or (iii) those that have otherwise been obtained or made on or
prior to the Closing Date and which remain in full force and effect on the Closing Date), or exemption by, any governmental or public body or authority, or any subdivision thereof, is required to be obtained or made by, or on behalf of, any Credit
Party to authorize, or is required to be obtained or made by, or on behalf of, any Credit Party in connection with, (i) the execution, delivery and performance of any Loan Document or (ii) the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of
any such Loan Document; provided, however, that: (x) Borrower and each License Subsidiary will be required from time to time to obtain certain authorizations of, or to make certain filings with, the FCC that are required in connection with the
ordinary course of business of such License Subsidiary and Holdings and its other Subsidiaries; (y) subsequent to the Closing Date, under the Communications Laws and the FCC rules, further FCC approval will be required prior to (A) the transfer of
control of any License Subsidiary or Borrower or (B) the assignment of any of the FCC Licenses or the exercise of any voting rights or management authority over any License Subsidiary or Borrower, and (z) prior to the exercise of certain rights or
remedies under the Collateral Documents by the Collateral Agent or the Lenders, or their respective successors and assigns, FCC consents and notifications with respect to such exercise may be required to be timely obtained or made. 
  
 3.5 Financial Statements; Financial Condition; Undisclosed
Liabilities; Projections. (a) (i) The combined balance sheets of Borrower and its Subsidiaries for the Fiscal Year ended on December 31, 2002 and the Fiscal Quarter ended on September 30, 2003, and the related combined statements of income, cash
flows and shareholders’ equity of Borrower and its Subsidiaries for the Fiscal Year and Fiscal Quarter ended on such dates, copies of which have been furnished to the Lenders prior to the Closing Date, present fairly in all material respects
the combined financial position of Borrower and its Subsidiaries at the date of such balance sheets and the combined results of the operations of Borrower and its Subsidiaries for the periods covered thereby, in each case as though such Persons had
been under common control for the periods covered by such financial statements. All of the foregoing historical financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied. 
  
 (ii) The pro forma combined balance sheet of Borrower and its Subsidiaries as
of December 31, 2003 (after giving effect to the Restatement) and the related pro forma combined 

  

 -16- 

 
statements of income, cash flows and shareholders equity of Borrower and its Subsidiaries for the twelve-month period ended on December 31, 2003 (after
giving effect to the Restatement), copies of which have been furnished to the Lenders prior to the Closing Date, present fairly in all material respects the pro forma combined financial position of Borrower and its Subsidiaries as of December 31,
2003 and the pro forma combined results of the operations of Borrower and its Subsidiaries for the period covered thereby. All of the foregoing pro forma financial statements have been prepared on a basis consistent with the combined historical
financial statements of Borrower and its Subsidiaries set forth in the preceding clause (i). 
  
 (b) On and as of the Closing Date and after giving effect to the Restatement and to all Indebtedness (including the Loans) being incurred or assumed and Liens created by the Credit Parties in connection therewith (i)
the sum of the assets, at a fair valuation, of Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole will exceed its debts, (ii) Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole have not incurred and do not intend to incur, and do not believe that they will
incur, debts beyond their respective ability to pay such debts as such debts mature, and (iii) Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole will have sufficient capital with which to conduct their respective businesses. For purposes of this
Section 3.5(b), “debt” means any liability on a claim, and “claim” means (a) right to payment, whether or not such a right is reduced to judgment, liquidated, unliquidated, fixed, contingent, matured, unmatured, disputed,
undisputed, legal, equitable, secured, or unsecured or (b) right to an equitable remedy for breach of performance if such breach gives rise to a payment, whether or not such right to an equitable remedy is reduced to judgment, fixed, contingent,
matured, unmatured, disputed, undisputed, secured or unsecured. The amount of contingent liabilities at any time shall be computed as the amount that, in the light of all the facts and circumstances existing at such time, represents the amount that
can reasonably be expected to become an actual or matured liability. 
  
 (c) Except as fully disclosed in the financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 3.5(a), there were as of the Closing Date no liabilities or obligations with respect to Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries of any nature
whatsoever (whether absolute, accrued, contingent or otherwise and whether or not due) which, either individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. As of the Closing Date, neither Holdings nor
Borrower knows of any basis for the assertion against it or any of its Subsidiaries of any liability or obligation of any nature whatsoever that is not fully disclosed in the financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 3.5(a) or
referred to in the immediately preceding sentence which, either individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 (d) The Projections delivered to the Agent and the Lenders prior to the Closing Date have been prepared in good faith and
are based on reasonable assumptions at the time of the preparation thereof and which remain reasonable as of the Closing Date, and there are no statements or conclusions in the Projections which are based upon or include information known to
Holdings or Borrower to be misleading in any material respect or which fail to take into account material information known to Holdings or Borrower regarding the matters reported therein. On the Closing Date, Holdings and Borrower believe that the
Projections are reasonable and attainable, it being recognized by the Lenders, however, that projections as to future events are not to be viewed as facts and that the actual results during the period or periods covered by the Projections may differ
from the projected results and such differences may be material. 
  

 -17- 

 (e) Since the Closing Date, there has been no change in the business, operations, properties, assets,
liabilities, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries that has had, or could reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 3.6 Litigation. Except as set forth on Disclosure Schedule 3.6,
there are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of Holdings and Borrower, threatened that could reasonably be expected, either individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect or that otherwise relate to
the Loan Documents. 
  
 3.7 True and Complete Disclosure.
All factual information (taken as a whole) furnished by or on behalf of Holdings or Borrower in writing to the Agent or any Lender (including, without limitation, all information contained in the Loan Documents, but excluding the Projections) for
purposes of or in connection with this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any transaction contemplated herein or therein is, and all other such factual information (taken as a whole) hereafter furnished by or on behalf of Holdings or Borrower in
writing to the Agent or any Lender will be, true and accurate in all material respects on the date as of which such information is dated or certified and not incomplete by omitting to state any fact necessary to make such information (taken as a
whole) not misleading in any material respect at such time in light of the circumstances under which such information was provided. 
  
 3.8 Use of Proceeds; Margin Regulations. (a) The proceeds of all Revolving Loans shall be used for the purposes set forth in Section 1.4.

  
 (b) No part of any Credit Event (or the proceeds thereof) will
be used to purchase or carry any Margin Stock or to extend credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock. Neither the making of any Loan nor the use of the proceeds thereof nor the occurrence of any other Credit Event will
violate or be inconsistent with the provisions of Regulation T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. 
  
 3.9 Tax Returns and Payments. Each of Holdings and each of its Subsidiaries has timely filed or caused to be timely filed, on the due dates thereof
or within applicable grace periods (taking into account any extensions granted by the applicable taxing authorities), with the appropriate taxing authority all federal income tax returns and all other material tax returns, domestic and foreign (the
“Returns”) required to be filed by, or with respect to the income, properties or operations of, Holdings and/or any of its Subsidiaries. The Returns accurately reflect in all material respects all liability for taxes of Holdings and
its Subsidiaries for the periods covered thereby. Each of Holdings and each of its Subsidiaries has paid all material taxes and assessments payable by it which have become due, other than (i) taxes (other than Federal income taxes) which are not
overdue by more than 30 days and (ii) taxes which are not delinquent and those that are being contested in good faith and adequately disclosed and fully provided for on the financial statements of Holdings and its Subsidiaries in accordance with

 -18- 

 
material taxes relating to Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries other than those that are being contested in good faith and adequately disclosed and fully
provided for on the financial statements of Holdings and its Subsidiaries in accordance with GAAP. As of the Closing Date, neither Holdings nor any of its Subsidiaries has entered into an agreement or waiver or been requested to enter into an
agreement or waiver extending any statute of limitations relating to the payment or collection of taxes of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries, or is aware of any circumstances that would cause the taxable years or other taxable periods of Holdings
or any of its Subsidiaries not to be subject to the normally applicable statute of limitations. 
  
 3.10 Compliance with ERISA. (i) Disclosure Schedule 3.10 sets forth, as of the Closing Date, the name of each Plan, Multiemployer Plan and
Foreign Pension Plan. Each Plan (and each related trust) is in compliance with its terms and with all applicable laws, including, without limitation, ERISA and the IRC, except for such noncompliances which, either individually or in the aggregate,
could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. For each Plan (and each related trust, if any) which is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the IRC, Holdings or Borrower (or its representative) has received, or to
the extent not received, will request, a determination letter from the IRS (within the remedial amendment period for submitting an application for a determination letter with the IRS) to the effect that it meets the requirements of Sections 401(a)
and 501(a) of the IRC (unless the Plan is a standardized plan that meets the requirements set forth in Section 6 of Rev. Proc. 2000-20 for reliance on the opinion letter issued to the sponsor for the standardized plan). No Plan has an Unfunded
Pension Liability which, when added to the aggregate amount of Unfunded Pension Liabilities with respect to all other Plans, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Plan which is subject to Section 412 of the IRC or
Section 302 of ERISA has an accumulated funding deficiency, within the meaning of such sections of the IRC or ERISA, or has applied for or received a waiver of an accumulated funding deficiency or an extension of any amortization period, within the
meaning of Section 412 of the IRC or Section 303 or 304 of ERISA; all contributions required to be made under applicable law with respect to a Plan, Multiemployer Plan and Foreign Pension Plan have been timely made; no Reportable Event has occurred;
no Multiemployer Plan is insolvent or in reorganization; neither Holdings nor any Subsidiary of Holdings nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred any outstanding liability (including any indirect, contingent or secondary liability) to or on account of a
Plan or Multiemployer Plan pursuant to Section 409, 502(i), 502(l), 515, 4062, 4063, 4064, 4069, 4201, 4204 or 4212 of ERISA or Section 401(a)(29), 4971 or 4975 of the IRC; no condition exists which presents a material risk to Holdings or any
Subsidiary of Holdings or any ERISA Affiliate of incurring a liability to or on account of a Plan or, to the knowledge of Holdings and Borrower, any Multiemployer Plan pursuant to the foregoing provisions of ERISA and the IRC; which with respect to
any of the foregoing in this sentence, either individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No proceedings have been instituted under Title IV of ERISA to terminate or appoint a trustee to
administer any Plan which is subject to Title IV of ERISA. Using actuarial assumptions and computation methods consistent with Part 1 of subtitle E of Title IV of ERISA, the aggregate liabilities of Holdings and its Subsidiaries and its ERISA
Affiliates to all Multiemployer Plans in the event of a complete withdrawal therefrom, as of the close of the most recent Fiscal Year of each such Plan ended prior to the date of the most recent Credit Event, could not reasonably be expected to have
a Material Adverse Effect. No action, suit, proceeding, hearing, audit or investigation by any Governmental Authority with respect to the administration, operation or the investment of assets of any Plan (other than routine 

  

 -19- 

 
claims for benefits) is pending, expected or threatened; each group health plan (as defined in Section 607(1) of ERISA or Section 4980B(g)(2) of the IRC)
which covers or has covered employees or former employees of Holdings, any Subsidiary of Holdings, or any ERISA Affiliate has at all times been operated in compliance with the provisions of Part 6 of subtitle B of Title I of ERISA and Section 4980B
of the IRC; which either individually or in the aggregate, with respect to any of the foregoing in this sentence, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; no lien imposed under the IRC or ERISA on the assets of Holdings or any
Subsidiary of Holdings or any ERISA Affiliate exists or is likely to arise on account of any Plan or Multiemployer Plan other than as permitted by Section 6.1; and Holdings and its Subsidiaries do not maintain or contribute to any employee
welfare benefit plan (as defined in Section 3(1) of ERISA) which provides benefit coverage to retired employees or other former employees (other than as required by the severance pay Plans of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries or Section 601 of
ERISA) or any Plan the obligations with respect to which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 (ii) Each Foreign Pension Plan has been maintained in substantial compliance with its terms and with the requirements of any and all applicable laws,
statutes, rules, regulations and orders and has been maintained, where required, in good standing with applicable regulatory authorities; all contributions required by applicable law to be made with respect to a Foreign Pension Plan have been timely
made; neither Holdings nor any of its Subsidiaries has incurred any obligation in connection with the termination of or withdrawal from any Foreign Pension Plan; the present value of the accrued benefit liabilities (whether or not vested) under each
Foreign Pension Plan, determined as of the end of Holdings’ most recently ended Fiscal Year on the basis of actuarial assumptions, each of which is reasonable, did not exceed the current value of the assets of such Foreign Pension Plan
allocable to such benefit liabilities; which with respect to any of the foregoing in this sentence, either individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 5.2 Insurance; Damage to or Destruction of Collateral. 
  
 (a) Holdings will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries
to, (i) keep all property necessary to the business of Holdings and its Subsidiaries in good working order and condition, ordinary wear and tear and damage by casualty or condemnation excepted, and (ii) maintain with financially sound and reputable
insurance companies insurance on all such property and against such risks as is consistent and in accordance with industry practice for companies similarly situated owning similar properties and engaged in similar businesses as Holdings or any of
its Subsidiaries operates. 
  
 (b) The
Credit Parties shall, at their sole cost and expense, maintain the policies of insurance described on Disclosure Schedule 3.22 as in effect on the date hereof or otherwise in form and amounts and with insurers reasonably acceptable to Agent.
Such policies of insurance (or the loss payable and additional insured endorsements delivered to Agent) shall contain provisions pursuant to which the insurer agrees to provide thirty (30) days prior written notice to Agent in the event of any
non-renewal, cancellation or amendment of any such insurance policy. If any Credit Party at any time or times hereafter shall fail to obtain or maintain any of the policies of insurance required above, or to pay all premiums relating thereto, Agent
may at any time or times thereafter obtain and maintain such policies of insurance and pay such premiums and take any other action with respect thereto that Agent deems advisable. Agent shall have no obligation to obtain insurance for any Credit
Party or pay any premiums therefor. By doing so, Agent shall not be deemed to have waived any Default or Event of Default arising from any Credit Party’s failure to maintain such insurance or pay any premiums therefor. All sums so disbursed,
including reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs and other charges related thereto, shall be payable on demand by Borrower to Agent and shall be additional Obligations hereunder secured by the Collateral. 
  
 (c) Agent reserves the right at any time upon any change in
any Credit Party’s risk profile (including any change in the product mix maintained by any Credit Party or any laws affecting the potential liability of such Credit Party) to require additional forms and limits of insurance to, in Agent’s
reasonable opinion, to ensure that each Credit Party is protected by insurance in amounts and with coverage customary for its industry. If reasonably requested by Agent, each Credit Party shall deliver to Agent from time to time a report of a
reputable insurance broker, reasonably satisfactory to Agent, with respect to its insurance policies. 
  
 (d) Each Credit Party shall deliver to Agent, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent, endorsements to (i) all “All
Risk” and business interruption insurance naming Agent, on behalf of itself and Lenders, as loss payee, and (ii) all general liability and other liability policies naming Agent, on behalf of itself and Lenders, as additional insured. Each
Credit Party irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints Agent (and all officers, employees or agents designated by Agent), so long as any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or the anticipated insurance proceeds exceed
$1,000,000, as each Credit Party’s] true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact for the purpose of making, settling and adjusting claims under such “All Risk” policies of insurance, endorsing the name of each Credit Party on any check
or other item of payment for the proceeds of such “All Risk” policies of insurance and for making all determinations and decisions with respect to such “All Risk” policies of 

  

 -26- 

 
insurance. Agent shall have no duty to exercise any rights or powers granted to it pursuant to the foregoing power-of-attorney. Borrower shall promptly
notify Agent of any loss, damage, or destruction to the Collateral in the amount of $1,000,000 or more, whether or not covered by insurance. After deducting from such proceeds (i) the expenses incurred by Agent in the collection or handling thereof,
and (ii) amounts required to be paid to creditors (other than Lenders) having Permitted Encumbrances, Agent may, at its option, apply such proceeds to the reduction of the Obligations in accordance with Section 1.3(d), provided that in
the case of insurance proceeds pertaining to any Credit Party other than Borrower, such insurance proceeds shall be applied to the Loans owing by Borrower, or permit or require the applicable Credit Party to use such money, or any part thereof, to
replace, repair, restore or rebuild the Collateral in a diligent and expeditious manner with materials and workmanship of substantially the same quality as existed before the loss, damage or destruction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the
casualty giving rise to such insurance proceeds could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect , no Default has occurred and is continuing, and such insurance proceeds do not exceed $1,000,000 in the aggregate, for all insurance
proceeds from a single claim (or series of related claims), Agent shall permit the applicable Credit Party to replace, restore, repair or rebuild the property; provided that if such Credit Party completes or enters into binding agreements to
complete such replacement, restoration, repair or rebuilding within 180 days of such casualty, Agent may apply such insurance proceeds to the Obligations in accordance with Section 1.3(d); provided further that in the case of
insurance proceeds pertaining to any Credit Party other than Borrower, such insurance proceeds shall be applied to the Loans owing by Borrower.. All insurance proceeds that are to be made available to any Credit Party to replace, repair, restore or
rebuild the Collateral shall be applied by Agent to reduce the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loan (which application shall not result in a permanent reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitment). All insurance proceeds made available
to any Credit Party that is not a Borrower to replace, repair, restore or rebuild Collateral shall be deposited in a cash collateral account. Thereafter, such funds shall be made available to such Credit Party to provide funds to replace, repair,
restore or rebuild the Collateral as follows: (i) Borrower shall request a Revolving Credit Advance or a release from the cash collateral account be made to such Credit Party in the amount requested to be released; and (ii) so long as the conditions
set forth in Section 2.2 have been met, Revolving Lenders shall make such Revolving Credit Advance or Agent shall release funds from the cash collateral account. To the extent not used to replace, repair, restore or rebuild the Collateral,
such insurance proceeds shall be applied in accordance with Section 1.3(d) ; provided that in the case of insurance proceeds pertaining to any Credit Party other than Borrower, such insurance proceeds shall be applied to the Loans
owing by Borrower.

however, that nothing in this Section 5.3 shall (A) prevent (i) sales of assets and other transactions by Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries in accordance with Section 6.2 or (ii) the withdrawal by Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries
of its qualification as a foreign corporation, partnership or limited liability company, as the case may be, in any jurisdiction

any of its Subsidiaries to preserve or keep in full force and effect any rights, franchises, licenses, Copyrights, Trademarks or Patents to the extent that the failure to do so could not, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 5.4 Compliance
with Statutes, etc. Holdings will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, comply with all applicable statutes, regulations and orders of, and all applicable restrictions imposed by, all governmental bodies, domestic or foreign, in respect
of the conduct of its business and the ownership of its property and the retention of its FCC Licenses (including applicable statutes, regulations, orders and restrictions relating to environmental standards and controls), except such noncompliances
as could not, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 5.5 Compliance with Environmental Laws. (a) Holdings will comply, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to comply, with all Environmental Laws
and permits applicable to, or required by, the ownership, lease or use of its Real Estate now or hereafter owned, leased or operated by Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries, except such noncompliances as could not, either individually or in the

with all applicable Environmental Laws and as required in connection with the normal operation, use and maintenance of the business or operations of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries and which could not, either individually or in the aggregate,
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Foreign Subsidiary of a security agreement in substantially the form of the Security Agreement and (iii) the entering into by such Foreign Subsidiary of a guaranty in substantially the form of the Subsidiaries Guaranty, in any such case could
reasonably be expected to cause (I) any undistributed earnings of such Foreign Subsidiary as determined for Federal income tax purposes to be treated as a deemed dividend to such Foreign Subsidiary’s United States parent for Federal income tax
purposes or (II) other Federal income tax consequences to the Credit Parties having an adverse financial consequence to any Credit Party in any material respect, then in the case of a failure to deliver the evidence described in clause (i) above,
that portion of such Foreign Subsidiary’s outstanding capital stock not theretofore pledged pursuant to the General Pledge Agreement shall be promptly pledged to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Lenders pursuant to the General Pledge
Agreement (or another pledge agreement in substantially similar form, if needed), and in the case of a failure to deliver the evidence described in clause (ii) above, such Foreign Subsidiary shall promptly execute and deliver the Security Agreement
and General Pledge Agreement (or another security agreement or pledge agreement in substantially similar form, if needed), granting the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Lenders a security interest in all of such Foreign Subsidiary’s

of such Permitted Acquisition; (iii) calculations are made by Holdings showing compliance with the Financial Covenants for the most recently ended Calculation Period on a Pro Forma Basis; (iv) based on good faith projections prepared by Holdings for

compliance with the requirements of preceding clauses (i) through (vi), inclusive, and containing the calculations (in reasonable detail) required by the preceding clauses (iii) through (vi); provided, however, except with respect to
the Stations identified as to be acquired by Holdings as provided in Disclosure Schedule 3.24, in the case of each Permitted Acquisition effected by Holdings, Holdings will immediately following the closing of each such Permitted Acquisition
transfer the assets and/or the equity interests so acquired to Borrower and/or a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of Borrower (including through a merger of any Person formed by Holdings to consummate each such Permitted Acquisition or acquired pursuant
thereto with and into Borrower and/or a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of Borrower, with Borrower or such Wholly-Owned Subsidiary being the surviving corporation) and Borrower or such Wholly-Owned Subsidiary shall in turn transfer the FCC Licenses related

 7.2 Survival of Obligations Upon Termination of Financing Arrangements. Except as otherwise expressly provided for in the Loan Documents, no termination or cancellation (regardless of cause or procedure) of any
financing arrangement under this Agreement shall in any way affect or impair the obligations, duties and liabilities of the Credit Parties or the rights of Agent and Lenders relating to any unpaid portion of the Loans or any other Obligations, due
or not due, liquidated, contingent or unliquidated or any transaction or event occurring prior to such termination, or any transaction or event, the performance of which is required after the Commitment Termination Date. Except as otherwise
expressly provided herein or in any other Loan Document, all undertakings, agreements, covenants, warranties and representations of or binding upon the Credit Parties, and all rights of Agent and each Lender, all as contained in the Loan Documents,
shall not terminate or expire, but rather shall survive any such termination or cancellation and shall continue in full force and effect until the Termination Date; provided, that the provisions of Section 11, the payment obligations
under Sections 1.15 and 1.16, and the indemnities contained in the Loan Documents shall survive the Termination Date.

additional Advances and additional Letter of Credit Obligations shall be made or incurred in Agent’s sole discretion (or in the sole discretion of the Requisite Revolving Lenders, if such suspension occurred at their direction) so long as such
Event of Default is continuing. If any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Agent may (and at the written request of Requisite Lenders shall), without notice except as otherwise expressly provided herein, increase the rate of interest
applicable to the Loans and the Letter of Credit Fees to the Default Rate. 
  
 (b) If any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Agent may (and at the written request of the Requisite Lenders shall), without notice: (i) terminate the Revolving Loan Commitment with respect to further
Advances or the incurrence of further Letter of Credit Obligations; (ii) reduce the Revolving Loan Commitment from time to time; (iii) declare all or any portion of the Obligations, including all or any portion of any Loan to be forthwith due and

that might be required by any court prior to allowing Agent to exercise any of its remedies, and (c) the benefit of all valuation, appraisal, marshaling and exemption laws. 
  
 8.4 Government Approval. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, any
foreclosure on, sale, transfer or other disposition of any Collateral or any other action taken or proposed to be taken hereunder that would affect the operational, voting, or other control of any Credit Party or affect the ownership of the FCC
Licenses shall be pursuant to the Communications Laws and, if and to the extent required thereby, subject to the prior consent of the FCC and any other applicable Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein,
Agent and Lenders shall not take any action pursuant hereto that would constitute or result in any assignment of the FCC Licenses or transfer of control of any Credit Party if such assignment or transfer of control would require, under then existing
law (including the Communications Laws), the prior approval of the 

  

 -52- 

 
FCC, without first obtaining such approval of the FCC and notifying the FCC of the consummation of such assignment or transfer of control (to the extent
required to do so). Each Credit Party agrees to take any lawful action which the Agent may request in order to obtain and enjoy the full rights and benefits granted to the Agent and Lenders by this Agreement, including specifically, after the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the use of such Credit Party’s best efforts to assist in obtaining any approval of the FCC and any other Governmental Authority that is then required under the Communications Laws or
under any other law for any action or transaction contemplated by this Agreement, including, without limitation, the sale or transfer of Collateral. Such efforts shall include, without limitation, sharing with Agent any FCC registration numbers,
account numbers and passwords for the FCC’s CDBS System and preparing, certifying and filing (or causing to be prepared, certified and filed) with the FCC any portion of any application or applications for consent to the assignment of the FCC
Licenses or transfer of control of any Credit Party required to be filed under the Communications Laws for approval of any sale or transfer of Collateral and/or the FCC Licenses. 
  
 9. ASSIGNMENT AND PARTICIPATIONS; APPOINTMENT OF AGENT 
  
 9.1 Assignment and Participations. 
  
 (a) Subject to the terms of this Section 9.1, any Lender may make an assignment to a Qualified
Assignee of, or sale of participations in, at any time or times, the Loan Documents, Loans, Letter of Credit Obligations and any Commitment or any portion thereof or interest therein, including any Lender’s rights, title, interests, remedies,
powers or duties thereunder. Any assignment by a Lender shall: (i) require the consent of Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed with respect to a Qualified Assignee) and the execution of an assignment agreement (an
“Assignment Agreement”) substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 9.1(a) and otherwise in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to, and acknowledged by, Agent; (ii) be conditioned on such assignee Lender
representing to the assigning Lender and Agent that it is purchasing the applicable Loans to be assigned to it for its own account, for investment purposes and not with a view to the distribution thereof; (iii) after giving effect to any such
partial assignment, the assignee Lender shall have Commitments in an amount at least equal to $2,500,000 and the assigning Lender shall have retained Commitments in an amount at least equal to $2,500,000; (iv) include a payment to Agent of an
assignment fee of $3,500 and (v) so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, require the consent of Borrower, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that no such consent shall be required for an assignment
to a Qualified Assignee. In the case of an assignment by a Lender under this Section 9.1, the assignee shall have, to the extent of such assignment, the same rights, benefits and obligations as all other Lenders hereunder. The assigning
Lender shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder with respect to its Commitments or assigned portion thereof from and after the date of such assignment. Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that any assignment shall give rise to a direct
obligation of Borrower to the assignee and that the assignee shall be considered to be a “Lender.” In all instances, each Lender’s liability to make Loans hereunder shall be several and not joint and shall be limited to such
Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the applicable Commitment. In the event Agent or any Lender assigns or 

  

 -53- 

 
otherwise transfers all or any part of the Obligations, Agent or any such Lender shall so notify Borrower and Borrower shall, upon the request of Agent or
such Lender, execute new Notes in exchange for the Notes, if any, being assigned. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.1(a), any Lender may at any time pledge the Obligations held by it and such Lender’s rights
under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to a Federal Reserve Bank, and any Lender that is an investment fund may assign the Obligations held by it and such Lender’s rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to another
investment fund managed by the same investment advisor; provided, that no such pledge to a Federal Reserve Bank shall release such Lender from such Lender’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document. 
  
 (b) Any participation by a Lender of all or any part of its
Commitments shall be made with the understanding that all amounts payable by Borrower hereunder shall be determined as if that Lender had not sold such participation, and that the holder of any such participation shall not be entitled to require
such Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder except actions directly affecting (i) any reduction in the principal amount of, or interest rate or Fees payable with respect to, any Loan in which such holder participates, (ii) any extension
of the scheduled amortization of the principal amount of any Loan in which such holder participates or the final maturity date thereof, and (iii) any release of all or substantially all of the Collateral (other than in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement, the Collateral Documents or the other Loan Documents). Solely for purposes of Sections 1.13, 1.15, 1.16 and 9.8, Borrower acknowledges and agrees that a participation shall give rise to a direct obligation of Borrower to the
participant and the participant shall be considered to be a “Lender”. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence neither Borrower nor any other Credit Party shall have any obligation or duty to any participant. Neither Agent nor any
Lender (other than the Lender selling a participation) shall have any duty to any participant and may continue to deal solely with the Lender selling a participation as if no such sale had occurred. 
  
 (c) Except as expressly provided in this Section 9.1,
no Lender shall, as between Borrower and that Lender, or Agent and that Lender, be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any sale, assignment, transfer or negotiation of, or granting of participation in, all or any part of the
Loans, the Notes or other Obligations owed to such Lender. 
  
 (d) Each Credit Party executing this Agreement shall assist any Lender permitted to sell assignments or participations under this Section 9.1 as reasonably required to enable the assigning or selling Lender to
effect any such assignment or participation, including the execution and delivery of any and all agreements, notes and other documents and instruments as shall be requested and the preparation of informational materials for, and the participation of
management in meetings with, potential assignees or participants. Each Credit Party executing this Agreement shall certify the correctness, completeness and accuracy of all descriptions of the Credit Parties and their respective affairs contained in
any selling materials provided by it and all other information provided by it and included in such materials, except that any Projections delivered by Borrower shall only be certified by Borrower as having been prepared by Borrower in compliance
with the representations contained in Section 3.5(d). 
  

 -54- 

 (e) Any Lender may furnish any information concerning Credit Parties in the possession of
such Lender from time to time to assignees and participants (including prospective assignees and participants); provided that such Lender shall obtain from assignees or participants confidentiality covenants substantially equivalent to those
contained in Section 11.8. 
  
 (f) So long
as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no Lender shall assign or sell participations in any portion of its Loans or Commitments to a potential Lender or participant, if, as of the date of the proposed assignment or sale, the assignee
Lender or participant would be subject to capital adequacy or similar requirements under Section 1.16(a), increased costs under Section 1.16(b), an inability to fund LIBOR Loans under Section 1.16(c), or withholding taxes in
accordance with Section 1.15(a). 
  
 (g)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”), may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”), identified as such in writing by the Granting Lender to Agent
and Borrower, the option to provide to Borrower all or any part of any Loans that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to Borrower pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment
by any SPC to make any Loan; and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. 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. No SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all
liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender). Any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, Borrower and Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor assign all or a portion of its interests in any
Loans to the Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented to by Borrower and Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPC to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (ii) disclose on a
confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC. This Section 9.1(g) may not be amended
without the prior written consent of each Granting Lender, all or any of whose Loans are being funded by an SPC at the time of such amendment. For the avoidance of doubt, the Granting Lender shall for all purposes, including without limitation, the
approval of any amendment or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or the obligation to pay any amount otherwise payable by the Granting Lender under the Loan Documents, continue to be the Lender of record hereunder. 
  
 9.2 Appointment of Agent. GE Capital is hereby appointed to act on
behalf of all Lenders as Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The provisions of this Section 9.2 are solely for the benefit of Agent and Lenders and no Credit Party nor any other 

  

 -55- 

 
Person shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions hereof. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents, Agent shall act solely as an agent of Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation toward or relationship of agency or trust with or for any Credit Party or any other Person. Agent
shall have no duties or responsibilities except for those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The duties of Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature and Agent shall not have, or be deemed to have, by
reason of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or otherwise a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not
be liable for failure to disclose, any information relating to any Credit Party or any of their respective Subsidiaries or any Account Debtor that is communicated to or obtained by GE Capital or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. Neither Agent
nor any of its Affiliates nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives shall be liable to any Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or in
connection herewith or therewith, except for damages caused by its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. 
  
 If Agent shall request instructions from Requisite Lenders, Requisite Revolving Lenders or all affected Lenders with respect to any act or action
(including failure to act) in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, then Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such action unless and until Agent shall have received instructions from Requisite Lenders,
Requisite Revolving Lenders, or all affected Lenders, as the case may be, and Agent shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining. Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action hereunder or under any
other Loan Document (a) if such action would, in the opinion of Agent, be contrary to law or the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (b) if such action would, in the opinion of Agent, expose Agent to Environmental Liabilities or (c)
if Agent shall not first be indemnified to its satisfaction against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any
right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of Agent acting or refraining from acting hereunder or under any other Loan Document in accordance with the instructions of Requisite Lenders, Requisite Revolving Lenders or all affected Lenders,
as applicable. 
  
 9.3 Agent’s Reliance, Etc. Neither
Agent nor any of its Affiliates nor any of their respective directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents,
except for damages caused by its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Agent: (a) may treat the payee of any Note as the holder thereof until Agent receives written notice of the
assignment or transfer thereof signed by such payee and in form reasonably satisfactory to Agent; (b) may consult with legal counsel, independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or
omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (c) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender and shall not be responsible to any Lender for any statements, warranties or
representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; (d) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or
the other Loan Documents on the part of 

  

 -56- 

 
any Credit Party or to inspect the Collateral (including the books and records) of any Credit Party; (e) shall not be responsible to any Lender for the due
execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto; and (f) shall incur no liability under or in
respect of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telecopy, telegram, cable or telex) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper
party or parties. 
  
 9.4 GE Capital and Affiliates. With
respect to its Commitments hereunder, GE Capital shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not Agent; and the term “Lender” or
“Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include GE Capital in its individual capacity. GE Capital and its Affiliates may lend money to, invest in, and generally engage in any kind of business with, any Credit Party, any of
their Affiliates and any Person who may do business with or own securities of any Credit Party or any such Affiliate, all as if GE Capital were not Agent and without any duty to account therefor to Lenders. GE Capital and its Affiliates may accept
fees and other consideration from any Credit Party for services in connection with this Agreement or otherwise without having to account for the same to Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges the potential conflict of interest between GE Capital as a
Lender holding disproportionate interests in the Loans, and GE Capital as Agent. 
  
 9.5 Lender Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other Lender and based on the Financial Statements referred to in Section 3.5(a) and
such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit and financial analysis of the Credit Parties and its own decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and
without reliance upon Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement. Each Lender
acknowledges the potential conflict of interest of each other Lender as a result of Lenders holding disproportionate interests in the Loans, and expressly consents to, and waives any claim based upon, such conflict of interest. 
  
 9.6 Indemnification. Lenders agree to indemnify Agent (to the extent
not reimbursed by the Credit Parties and without limiting the obligations of the Credit Parties hereunder), ratably according to their respective Pro Rata Shares, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties,
actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any
action taken or omitted to be taken by Agent in connection therewith; provided, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or
disbursements resulting from Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable
counsel fees) incurred by Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights
or responsibilities under, this Agreement and each other Loan Document, to the extent that Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by Credit Parties. 
  

 -57- 

 9.7 Successor Agent. Agent may resign at any time by giving not less than thirty (30) days’
prior written notice thereof to Lenders and Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Requisite Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent. If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Requisite Lenders and shall have
accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the resigning Agent’s giving notice of resignation, then the resigning Agent may, on behalf of Lenders, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be a Lender, if a Lender is willing to accept
such appointment, or otherwise shall be a commercial bank or financial institution or a subsidiary of a commercial bank or financial institution if such commercial bank or financial institution is organized under the laws of the United States of
America or of any State thereof and has a combined capital and surplus of at least $300,000,000. If no successor Agent has been appointed pursuant to the foregoing, within thirty (30) days after the date such notice of resignation was given by the
resigning Agent, such resignation shall become effective and the Requisite Lenders shall thereafter perform all the duties of Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Requisite Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided above. Any
successor Agent appointed by Requisite Lenders hereunder shall be subject to the approval of Borrower, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that such approval shall not be required if a Default or an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the resigning
Agent. Upon the earlier of the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent or the effective date of the resigning Agent’s resignation, the resigning Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, except that any indemnity rights or other rights in favor of such resigning Agent shall continue. After any resigning Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Section 9 shall inure to
its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
  
 9.8 Setoff and Sharing of Payments. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any
such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and subject to Section 9.9(f), each Lender is hereby authorized at any time or from time to time, without prior notice to any Credit Party or to any Person
other than Agent, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to offset and to appropriate and to apply any and all balances held by it at any of its offices for the account of Borrower or any Guarantor (regardless of whether such balances are
then due to Borrower or any Guarantor) and any other properties or assets at any time held or owing by that Lender or that holder to or for the credit or for the account of Borrower or any Guarantor against and on account of any of the Obligations
that are not paid when due; provided that the Lender exercising such offset rights shall give notice thereof to the affected Credit Party promptly after exercising such rights. Any Lender exercising a right of setoff or otherwise receiving
any payment on account of the Obligations in excess of its Pro Rata Share thereof shall purchase for cash (and the other Lenders or holders shall sell) such participations in each such other Lender’s or holder’s Pro Rata Share of the
Obligations as would be necessary to cause such Lender to share the amount so offset or otherwise received with each other Lender or holder in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares, (other than offset rights exercised by any Lender with

  

 -58- 

 
respect to Sections 1.13, 1.15 or 1.16). Borrower and each Guarantor agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that (a) any Lender may exercise
its right to offset with respect to amounts in excess of its Pro Rata Share of the Obligations and may sell participations in such amounts so offset to other Lenders and holders and (b) any Lender so purchasing a participation in the Loans made or
other Obligations held by other Lenders or holders may exercise all rights of offset, bankers’ lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender or holder were a direct holder of the Loans and
the other Obligations in the amount of such participation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if all or any portion of the offset amount or payment otherwise received is thereafter recovered from the Lender that has exercised the right of offset, the
purchase of participations by that Lender shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored without interest. 
  
 9.9 Advances; Payments; Non-Funding Lenders; Information; Actions in Concert. 
  
 (a) Advances; Payments. 
  
 (i) Each Revolving Lender shall make the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Revolving Credit Advance available to Agent in same day
funds by wire transfer to Agent’s account as set forth in Annex H not later than 3:00 p.m. (New York time) on the requested funding date, in the case of an Index Rate Loan and not later than 12:00 noon (New York time) on the requested
funding date in the case of a LIBOR Loan. After receipt of such wire transfers (or, in the Agent’s sole discretion, before receipt of such wire transfers), subject to the terms hereof, Agent shall make the requested Revolving Credit Advance to
Borrower. All payments by each Revolving Lender shall be made without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind. 
  
 (ii) Not less than once during each calendar week or more frequently at Agent’s election (each, a “Settlement Date”), Agent shall
advise each Lender by telephone, or telecopy of the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of principal, interest and Fees paid for the benefit of Lenders with respect to each applicable Loan. Provided that each Lender has funded all payments
and Advances required to be made by it and has purchased all participations required to be purchased by it under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as of such Settlement Date, Agent shall pay to each Lender such Lender’s Pro Rata Share
of principal, interest and Fees paid by Borrower since the previous Settlement Date for the benefit of such Lender on the Loans held by it. To the extent that any Lender (a “Non-Funding Lender”) has failed to fund all such payments
and Advances or failed to fund the purchase of all such participations, Agent shall be entitled to set off the funding short-fall against that Non-Funding Lender’s Pro Rata Share of all payments received from Borrower. Such payments shall be
made by wire transfer to such Lender’s account (as specified by such Lender in Annex H or the applicable Assignment Agreement) not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the next Business Day following each Settlement Date. 

 
 (b) Availability of Lender’s Pro Rata Share. Agent
may assume that each Revolving Lender will make its Pro Rata Share of each Revolving Credit Advance available to Agent on each funding date. If such Pro Rata Share is not, in fact, paid to Agent by such Revolving Lender when due, Agent will be
entitled to recover such 

  

 -59- 

 
amount on demand from such Revolving Lender without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind. If any Revolving Lender fails to pay the amount of its Pro
Rata Share forthwith upon Agent’s demand, Agent shall promptly notify Borrower and Borrower shall immediately repay such amount to Agent. Nothing in this Section 9.9(b) or elsewhere in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be
deemed to require Agent to advance funds on behalf of any Revolving Lender or to relieve any Revolving Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that Borrower may have against any Revolving Lender as
a result of any default by such Revolving Lender hereunder. To the extent that Agent advances funds to Borrower on behalf of any Revolving Lender and is not reimbursed therefor on the same Business Day as such Revolving Credit Advance is made, Agent
shall be entitled to retain for its account all interest accrued on such Revolving Credit Advance until reimbursed by the applicable Revolving Lender. 
  
 (c) Return of Payments. 
  
 (i) If Agent pays an amount to a Lender under this Agreement in the belief or expectation that a related payment has been or will be received by Agent
from Borrower and such related payment is not received by Agent, then Agent will be entitled to recover such amount from such Lender on demand without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind. 
  
 (ii) If Agent determines at any time that any amount received by Agent under
this Agreement must be returned to Borrower or paid to any other Person pursuant to any insolvency law or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term or condition of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Agent will not be required to
distribute any portion thereof to any Lender. In addition, each Lender will repay to Agent on demand any portion of such amount that Agent has distributed to such Lender, together with interest at such rate, if any, as Agent is required to pay to
Borrower or such other Person, without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind. 
  
 (d) Non-Funding Lenders. The failure of any Non-Funding Lender to make any Revolving Credit Advance or any payment required by it
hereunder on the date specified therefor shall not relieve any other Lender (each such other Revolving Lender, an “Other Lender”) of its obligations to make such Advance on such date, but neither any Other Lender nor Agent shall be
responsible for the failure of any Non-Funding Lender to make an Advance or make any other payment required hereunder. Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the contrary, a Non-Funding Lender shall not have any voting or consent rights under
or with respect to any Loan Document or constitute a “Lender” or a “Revolving Lender” (or be included in the calculation of “Requisite Lenders”, “Requisite Revolving Lenders” hereunder) for any voting or
consent rights under or with respect to any Loan Document. At Borrower’s request, Agent or a Person acceptable to Agent shall have the right with Agent’s consent and in Agent’s sole discretion (but shall have no obligation) to
purchase from any Non-Funding Lender, and each Non-Funding Lender agrees that it shall, at Agent’s request, sell and assign to Agent or such Person, all of the Commitments of that Non-Funding Lender for an amount equal to the principal balance
of all Loans held by such Non-Funding Lender and all accrued interest and fees with respect thereto through the date of sale, such purchase and sale to be consummated pursuant to an executed Assignment Agreement. 
  

 -60- 

 (e) Dissemination of Information. Agent shall use reasonable efforts to provide
Lenders with any notice of Default or Event of Default received by Agent from, or delivered by Agent to, any Credit Party, with notice of any Event of Default of which Agent has actually become aware and with notice of any action taken by Agent
following any Event of Default; provided, that Agent shall not be liable to any Lender for any failure to do so, except to the extent that such failure is attributable to Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Lenders acknowledge that
Borrower is required to provide Financial Statements and Collateral Reports to Lenders in accordance with Annexes E and F hereto and agree that Agent shall have no duty to provide the same to Lenders. 
  
 (f) Actions in Concert. Anything in this Agreement to
the contrary notwithstanding, each Lender hereby agrees with each other Lender that no Lender shall take any action to protect or enforce its rights arising out of this Agreement or the Notes (including exercising any rights of setoff) without first
obtaining the prior written consent of Agent and Requisite Lenders, it being the intent of Lenders that any such action to protect or enforce rights under this Agreement and the Notes shall be taken in concert and at the direction or with the
consent of Agent or Requisite Lenders. 
  
 (g)
Release of Collateral. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized by each of the Lenders to effect any release of Liens or guarantee obligations upon
request of Borrower in connection with any disposition of property expressly permitted by the Loan Documents. 
  
 10. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS 
  
 10.1 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be binding on and shall inure to the benefit of each Credit Party,
Agent, Lenders and their respective successors and assigns (including, in the case of any Credit Party, a debtor-in-possession on behalf of such Credit Party), except as otherwise provided herein or therein. No Credit Party may assign, transfer,
hypothecate or otherwise convey its rights, benefits, obligations or duties hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents without the prior express written consent of Agent and Lenders. Any such purported assignment, transfer, hypothecation or
other conveyance by any Credit Party without the prior express written consent of Agent and Lenders shall be void. The terms and provisions of this Agreement are for the purpose of defining the relative rights and obligations of each Credit Party,
Agent and Lenders with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and no Person shall be a third party beneficiary of any of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. 
  

 -61- 

 11. MISCELLANEOUS 
  
 11.1 Complete Agreement; Modification of Agreement. The Loan Documents constitute the complete agreement between the
parties with respect to the subject matter thereof and may not be modified, altered or amended except as set forth in Section 11.2. Any letter of interest, commitment letter, fee letter or confidentiality agreement, if any, between any Credit
Party and Agent or any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates, predating this Agreement and relating to a financing of substantially similar form, purpose or effect shall be superseded by this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the GE
Capital Fee Letter shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and shall continue to be binding obligations of the parties. 
  
 11.2 Amendments and Waivers. 
  
 (a) Except for actions expressly permitted to be taken by Agent, no amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of
this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any consent to any departure by any Credit Party therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Agent and Borrower, and by Requisite Lenders, Requisite
Revolving Lenders or all affected Lenders, as applicable. Except as set forth in clauses (b) and (c) below, all such amendments, modifications, terminations or waivers requiring the consent of any Lenders shall require the written consent of
Requisite Lenders. 
  
 (b) No amendment,
modification, termination or waiver of or consent with respect to any provision of this Agreement that waives compliance with the conditions precedent set forth in Section 2.2 to the making of any Loan or the incurrence of any Letter of
Credit Obligations shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Agent, Requisite Revolving Lenders and Borrower. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, no waiver or consent with respect to any
Default or any Event of Default shall be effective for purposes of the conditions precedent to the making of Loans or the incurrence of Letter of Credit Obligations set forth in Section 2.2 unless the same shall be in writing and signed by
Agent, Requisite Revolving Lenders and Borrower. 
  
 (c) No amendment, modification, termination or waiver shall, unless in writing and signed by Agent and each Lender directly affected thereby: (i) increase the principal amount of any Lender’s Commitment (which action shall be deemed to
directly affect all Lenders); (ii) reduce the principal of, rate of interest on or Fees payable with respect to any Loan or Letter of Credit Obligations of any affected Lender; (iii) extend any scheduled payment date (other than extensions of
payment dates of mandatory prepayments under Section 1.3(b)(ii)-(iv)) or final maturity date of the principal amount of any Loan of any affected Lender; (iv) waive, forgive, defer, extend or postpone any payment of interest or Fees as to any
affected Lender; (v) release any Guaranty or, except as otherwise permitted herein or in the other Loan Documents, release, or permit any Credit Party to sell or otherwise dispose of, all or substantially all of the Collateral (which action shall be
deemed to directly affect all Lenders); (vi) change the percentage of the Commitments or of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loans that shall be required for Lenders or any of them to take any action hereunder; and (vii) amend or waive
this Section 11.2 or the definitions of the terms “Requisite Lenders” or “Requisite 

  

 -62- 

 
Revolving Lenders” insofar as such definitions affect the substance of this Section 11.2. Furthermore, no amendment, modification, termination or
waiver affecting the rights or duties of Agent or L/C Issuer under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be effective unless in writing and signed by Agent or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, in addition to Lenders required hereinabove to
take such action. Each amendment, modification, termination or waiver shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. No amendment, modification, termination or waiver shall be required for Agent
to take additional Collateral pursuant to any Loan Document. No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of any Note shall be effective without the written concurrence of the holder of that Note. No notice to or demand on any
Credit Party in any case shall entitle such Credit Party or any other Credit Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. Any amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent effected in accordance with
this Section 11.2 shall be binding upon each holder of the Notes at the time outstanding and each future holder of the Notes. 
  
 (d) If, in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, waiver or termination (a “Proposed Change”): 

 
 (i) requiring the consent of all affected Lenders, the consent of
Requisite Lenders is obtained, but the consent of other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is not obtained as described in this clause (i) and in clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) below being
referred to as “Non Consenting Lender”); 
  
 (ii) requiring the consent of Requisite Revolving Lenders, the consent of Revolving Lenders holding 51% or more of the aggregate Revolving Loan Commitments is obtained, but the consent of Requisite Revolving Lenders is not obtained; or

  
 (iii) requiring the consent of Requisite Lenders, the consent
of Lenders holding 51% or more of the aggregate Commitments is obtained, but the consent of Requisite Lenders is not obtained; 
  
 then, so long as Agent is not a Non Consenting Lender, at Borrower’s request Agent, or a Person reasonably acceptable to Agent, shall have the right with
Agent’s consent and in Agent’s sole discretion (but shall have no obligation) to purchase from such Non Consenting Lenders, and such Non Consenting Lenders agree that they shall, upon Agent’s request, sell and assign to Agent or such
Person, all of the Commitments of such Non Consenting Lenders for an amount equal to the principal balance of all Loans held by the Non Consenting Lenders and all accrued interest and Fees with respect thereto through the date of sale, such purchase
and sale to be consummated pursuant to an executed Assignment Agreement. 
  
 (e) Upon payment in full in cash and performance of all of the Obligations (other than indemnification Obligations), termination of the Commitments and a release of all claims against Agent and Lenders, and so long as
no suits, actions proceedings, or claims are pending or threatened against any Indemnified Person asserting any damages, losses or liabilities that are Indemnified Liabilities, Agent shall deliver to Borrower termination statements, mortgage
releases and other documents necessary or appropriate to evidence the termination of the Liens securing payment of the Obligations. 
  

 -63- 

 11.3 Fees and Expenses. Borrower shall reimburse Agent (and with respect to clauses (b) and (c)
below, all Lenders) for all fees, costs and expenses, including the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of counsel or other advisors (including environmental and management consultants and appraisers) incurred in connection with the negotiation,
preparation and filing and/or recordation of the Loan Documents and incurred in connection with: 
  
 (a) any amendment, modification or waiver of, or consent with respect to, or termination of, any of the Loan Documents or Related
Transactions Documents or advice in connection with the syndication and administration of the Loans made pursuant hereto or its rights hereunder or thereunder; 
  

(b) any litigation, contest, dispute, suit, proceeding or action (whether instituted by Agent, any Lender, any Credit Party or any
other Person and whether as a party, witness or otherwise) in any way relating to the Collateral, any of the Loan Documents or any other agreement to be executed or delivered in connection herewith or therewith, including any litigation, contest,
dispute, suit, case, proceeding or action, and any appeal or review thereof, in connection with a case commenced by or against any or all of the Credit Parties or any other Person that may be obligated to Agent by virtue of the Loan Documents,
including any such litigation, contest, dispute, suit, proceeding or action arising in connection with any work-out or restructuring of the Loans during the pendency of one or more Events of Default; provided that in the case of reimbursement of
counsel for Lenders other than Agent, such reimbursement shall be limited to one counsel for all such Lenders; provided, further, that no Person shall be entitled to reimbursement under this clause (b) in respect of any
litigation, contest, dispute, suit, proceeding or action to the extent any of the foregoing results from such Persons gross negligence or willful misconduct; 
  

(c) any attempt to enforce any remedies of Agent on behalf of itself and/or the Lenders, and after the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, any Lender, against any or all of the Credit Parties or any other Person that may be obligated to Agent or any Lender by virtue of any of the Loan Documents, including any such attempt to enforce any such remedies
in the course of any work-out or restructuring of the Loans during the pendency of one or more Events of Default; provided, that in the case of reimbursement of counsel for Lenders other than Agent, such reimbursement shall be limited to one
counsel for all such Lenders; 
  
 (d) any workout
or restructuring of the Loans during the pendency of one or more Events of Default; and 
  
 (e) efforts to (i) monitor the Loans or any of the other Obligations, (ii) evaluate, observe or assess any of the Credit Parties or their
respective affairs, and (iii) verify, protect, evaluate, assess, appraise, collect, sell, liquidate or otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral; 

  

 -64- 

 
including, as to each of clauses (a) through (e) above, all reasonable attorneys’ and other professional and service providers’ fees arising
from such services and other advice, assistance or other representation, including those in connection with any appellate proceedings, and all expenses, costs, charges and other fees incurred by such counsel and others in connection with or relating
to any of the events or actions described in this Section 11.3, all of which shall be payable, on demand, by Borrower to Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, such expenses, costs, charges and fees may include: fees, costs
and expenses of accountants, environmental advisors, appraisers, investment bankers, management and other consultants and paralegals; court costs and expenses; photocopying and duplication expenses; court reporter fees, costs and expenses; long
distance telephone charges; air express charges; telegram or telecopy charges; secretarial overtime charges; and expenses for travel, lodging and food paid or incurred in connection with the performance of such legal or other advisory services.

  
 11.4 No Waiver. Agent’s or any Lender’s
failure, at any time or times, to require strict performance by the Credit Parties of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall not waive, affect or diminish any right of Agent or such Lender thereafter to demand strict
compliance and performance herewith or therewith. Any suspension or waiver of an Event of Default shall not suspend, waive or affect any other Event of Default whether the same is prior or subsequent thereto and whether the same or of a different
type. Subject to the provisions of Section 11.2, none of the undertakings, agreements, warranties, covenants and representations of any Credit Party contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents and no Default or Event of
Default by any Credit Party shall be deemed to have been suspended or waived by Agent or any Lender, unless such waiver or suspension is by an instrument in writing signed by an officer of or other authorized employee of Agent and the applicable
required Lenders, and directed to Borrower specifying such suspension or waiver. 
  
 11.5 Remedies. Agent’s and Lenders’ rights and remedies under this Agreement shall be cumulative and nonexclusive of any other rights and remedies that Agent or any Lender may have under any other
agreement, including the other Loan Documents, by operation of law or otherwise. Recourse to the Collateral shall not be required. 
  
 11.6 Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be interpreted in such a manner as to be
effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or
invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement or such other Loan Document. 
  
 11.7 Conflict of Terms. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents by specific reference to the applicable
provisions of this Agreement, if any provision contained in this Agreement conflicts with any provision in any of the other Loan Documents, the provision contained in this Agreement shall govern and control. 
  
 11.8 Confidentiality. Agent and each Lender agree to use commercially
reasonable efforts (equivalent to the efforts Agent or such Lender applies to maintaining the confidentiality of its own confidential information) to maintain as confidential all confidential information provided to them by the Credit Parties and
designated as confidential for a period of 

  

 -65- 

 
two (2) years following receipt thereof, except that Agent and each Lender may disclose such information (a) to Persons employed or engaged by Agent or such
Lender; (b) to any bona fide assignee or participant or potential assignee or participant that has agreed to comply with the covenant contained in this Section 11.8 (and any such bona fide assignee or participant or potential assignee or
participant may disclose such information to Persons employed or engaged by them as described in clause (a) above); (c) as required or requested by any Governmental Authority or reasonably believed by Agent or such Lender to be compelled by
any court decree, subpoena or legal or administrative order or process; (d) as, on the advice of Agent’s or such Lender’s counsel, is required by law; (e) in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy under the Loan Documents or
in connection with any litigation to which Agent or such Lender is a party; or (f) that ceases to be confidential through no fault of Agent or any Lender. 
  
 11.9 GOVERNING LAW. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, IN ALL RESPECTS, INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION,
VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE, THE LOAN DOCUMENTS AND THE OBLIGATIONS SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE AND PERFORMED IN THAT STATE AND ANY
APPLICABLE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. EACH CREDIT PARTY HEREBY CONSENTS AND AGREES THAT THE STATE OR FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED IN NEW YORK COUNTY, CITY OF NEW YORK, NEW YORK SHALL HAVE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS
OR DISPUTES BETWEEN THE CREDIT PARTIES, AGENT AND LENDERS PERTAINING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR TO ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS; PROVIDED, THAT AGENT, LENDERS
AND THE CREDIT PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT ANY APPEALS FROM THOSE COURTS MAY HAVE TO BE HEARD BY A COURT LOCATED OUTSIDE OF NEW YORK COUNTY AND; PROVIDED, FURTHER THAT NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED OR OPERATE TO PRECLUDE AGENT
FROM BRINGING SUIT OR TAKING OTHER LEGAL ACTION IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION TO REALIZE ON THE COLLATERAL OR ANY OTHER SECURITY FOR THE OBLIGATIONS, OR TO ENFORCE A JUDGMENT OR OTHER COURT ORDER IN FAVOR OF AGENT. EACH CREDIT PARTY EXPRESSLY SUBMITS
AND CONSENTS IN ADVANCE TO SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY ACTION OR SUIT COMMENCED IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND EACH CREDIT PARTY HEREBY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT SUCH CREDIT PARTY MAY HAVE BASED UPON LACK OF PERSONAL JURISDICTION, IMPROPER VENUE OR
FORUM NON CONVENIENS AND HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE GRANTING OF SUCH LEGAL OR EQUITABLE RELIEF AS IS DEEMED APPROPRIATE BY SUCH COURT. EACH CREDIT PARTY HEREBY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF THE SUMMONS, COMPLAINT AND OTHER PROCESS
ISSUED IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR SUIT AND AGREES THAT SERVICE OF SUCH SUMMONS, COMPLAINTS AND OTHER PROCESS MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL ADDRESSED TO SUCH CREDIT PARTY AT THE ADDRESS SET FORTH IN ANNEX I OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THAT
SERVICE SO MADE SHALL BE DEEMED COMPLETED UPON THE EARLIER OF SUCH CREDIT PARTY’S ACTUAL RECEIPT THEREOF OR THREE (3) DAYS AFTER DEPOSIT IN THE UNITED STATES MAILS, PROPER POSTAGE PREPAID. 
  

 -66- 

 11.10 Notices. Except as otherwise provided herein, whenever it is provided herein that any
notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication shall or may be given to or served upon any of the parties by any other parties, or whenever any of the parties desires to give or serve upon any other parties any
communication with respect to this Agreement, each such notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been validly served, given or delivered: (a) upon the earlier of
actual receipt and three (3) Business Days after deposit in the United States Mail, registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, with proper postage prepaid; (b) upon transmission, when sent by telecopy or other similar facsimile
transmission (with such telecopy or facsimile promptly confirmed by delivery of a copy by personal delivery or United States Mail as otherwise provided in this Section 11.10); (c) one (1) Business Day after deposit with a reputable overnight
courier with all charges prepaid or (d) when delivered, if hand-delivered by messenger, all of which shall be addressed to the party to be notified and sent to the address or facsimile number indicated in Annex I or to such other address (or
facsimile number) as may be substituted by notice given as herein provided. The giving of any notice required hereunder may be waived in writing by the party entitled to receive such notice. Failure or delay in delivering copies of any notice,
demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication to any Person (other than Borrower or Agent) designated in Annex I to receive copies shall in no way adversely affect the effectiveness of such notice, demand, request,
consent, approval, declaration or other communication. 
  
 11.11
Section Titles. The Section titles and Table of Contents contained in this Agreement are and shall be without substantive meaning or content of any kind whatsoever and are not a part of the agreement between the parties hereto. 
  
 11.12 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
separate counterparts, each of which shall collectively and separately constitute one agreement. 
  
 11.13 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. BECAUSE DISPUTES ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH COMPLEX FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS ARE MOST QUICKLY AND ECONOMICALLY RESOLVED
BY AN EXPERIENCED AND EXPERT PERSON AND THE PARTIES WISH APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS TO APPLY (RATHER THAN ARBITRATION RULES), THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT THEIR DISPUTES BE RESOLVED BY A JUDGE APPLYING SUCH APPLICABLE LAWS. THEREFORE, TO ACHIEVE
THE BEST COMBINATION OF THE BENEFITS OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND OF ARBITRATION, THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE,
AMONG AGENT, LENDERS AND ANY CREDIT PARTY ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, RELATED TO, OR INCIDENTAL TO THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED AMONG THEM IN CONNECTION WITH, THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED THERETO.

  

 -67- 

 11.14 Press Releases and Related Matters. Each Credit Party executing this Agreement agrees that
neither it nor its Affiliates will in the future issue any press releases or other public disclosure using the name of GE Capital or its affiliates or referring to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or the Related Transactions Documents
without at least two (2) Business Days’ prior notice to GE Capital and without the prior written consent of GE Capital unless (and only to the extent that) such Credit Party or Affiliate is required to do so under law and then, in any event,
such Credit Party or Affiliate will consult with GE Capital before issuing such press release or other public disclosure. Each Credit Party consents to the publication by Agent or any Lender of advertising material relating to the financing
transactions contemplated by this Agreement using Borrower’s name, product photographs, logo or Trademark. Agent or such Lender shall provide a draft of any advertising material to each Credit Party for review and comment prior to the
publication thereof. Agent reserves the right to provide to industry trade organizations information necessary and customary for inclusion in league table measurements. 
  
 11.15 Reinstatement. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any
petition be filed by or against any Credit Party for liquidation or reorganization, should any Credit Party become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of any creditor or creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or
any significant part of any Credit Party’s assets, and shall continue to be effective or to be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law,
rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the Obligations, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had
not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

  
 11.16 Advice of Counsel. Each of the parties represents
to each other party hereto that it has discussed this Agreement and, specifically, the provisions of Sections 11.9 and 11.13, with its counsel. 
  
 11.17 No Strict Construction. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an
ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship
of any provisions of this Agreement. 
  
 11.18 Additional
Extensions of Credit. Prior to July 31, 2005 and so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Lenders agree that this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the
Agent and each Credit Party to each relevant Loan Document (x) to add one or 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 (collectively, the “Incremental Facility”) to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Revolving Loans and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and (y) to
include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Requisite 

  

 -68- 

 
Lenders; provided, however, that (i) the aggregate amount of the Incremental Facility shall not exceed $50,000,000, (ii) the Incremental
Facility must be on substantially similar terms and conditions (including as to pricing and maturity), though not more favorable to the Lenders providing the Incremental Facility, as the Revolving Loans and (iii) Borrower shall use the proceeds of
the Incremental Facility solely for (A) the financing of Permitted Acquisitions and (B) the financing of Borrower’s general corporate needs. The existing Lenders will have the right of first refusal to provide the Incremental Facility, but
shall in no way be obligated to participate in the Incremental Facility, such determination to be in each Lender’s sole discretion. Any additional lenders that provide the Incremental Facility will be arranged by Borrower unless otherwise
agreed in writing by the Agent, and such additional lenders shall be reasonably acceptable to the Agent. 
  
 11.19 Effect of Amendment and Restatement. Upon the effectiveness of this Agreement pursuant to Section 2.1: (a) all terms and conditions of
the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, the Notes, but excluding the Prior Credit Agreement and any other Loan Document amended and restated in its entirety on the Closing Date) shall be and remain in full force and effect and shall
constitute the legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligations of the Credit Parties party thereto to the Lenders and the Agent; (b) the terms and conditions of the Prior Credit Agreement shall be amended as set forth herein and, as so amended,
shall be restated in their entirety, but only with respect to the rights, duties and obligations among Borrower, Lenders and Agent accruing from and after the Closing Date; (c) this Agreement shall not in any way release or impair the rights,
duties, Obligations or Liens created pursuant to the Prior Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document or affect the relative priorities thereof, in each case to the extent in force and effect thereunder as of the Closing Date and except as modified

 12. HOLDINGS’ GUARANTY 
  
 12.1 Guaranty. In order to induce the Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to
extend credit hereunder, and to induce the other Guaranteed Creditors to enter into Interest Rate Protection Agreements and Other Hedging Agreements and in recognition of the direct benefits to be received by Holdings from the proceeds of the Loans,
the issuance of the Letters of Credit and the entering into of such Interest Rate Protection Agreements and Other Hedging Agreements, Holdings hereby agrees with the Guaranteed Creditors as follows: Holdings hereby and unconditionally and
irrevocably guarantees as primary obligor and not merely as surety the full and prompt payment when due, whether upon maturity, acceleration or otherwise, of any and all of the Guaranteed Obligations of Borrower to the Guaranteed Creditors. If any
or all of the Guaranteed Obligations of Borrower to the Guaranteed Creditors becomes due and payable hereunder, Holdings, unconditionally and irrevocably, promises to pay such Guaranteed Obligations to the Agent and/or the other Guaranteed
Creditors, or order, on demand, together with any and all expenses which may be incurred by the Agent and the other Guaranteed Creditors in collecting any of the Guaranteed Obligations. If a claim is ever made upon any Guaranteed Creditor for
repayment or recovery of any amount or amounts received in payment or on account of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and any of the aforesaid payees repays all or part of said amount by reason of (i) any judgment, decree or order of any court or
administrative body having jurisdiction over such payee or any of its property or (ii) any settlement or compromise of any such claim effected by such payee with any such claimant (including Borrower), then and in such event Holdings agrees that any
the judgment, decree, order, settlement or compromise shall be binding upon Holdings, notwithstanding any revocation of this Guaranty or other instrument evidencing any liability of Borrower, and Holdings shall be and remain liable to the aforesaid
payees hereunder for the amount so repaid or recovered to the same extent as if such amount had never originally been received by any such payee. 
  
 12.2 Bankruptcy. Additionally, Holdings unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the payment of any and all of the Guaranteed Obligations of
Borrower to the Guaranteed Creditors whether or not due or payable by Borrower upon the occurrence of any of the events specified in Section 8.1(e), and irrevocably and unconditionally promises to pay such indebtedness to the Guaranteed
Creditors, or order, on demand, in Dollars. 
  
 12.3 Nature of
Liability. The liability of Holdings hereunder is exclusive and independent of any security for or other guaranty of the Guaranteed Obligations of Borrower, whether executed by any other Guarantor or by any other party, and the liability of
Holdings hereunder shall not be affected or impaired by (a) any direction as to application of payment by Borrower or by any other party, or (b) any other continuing or other guaranty, undertaking or maximum liability of a Guarantor or of any other
party as to the Guaranteed Obligations of Borrower, or (c) any payment on or in reduction of any such other guaranty or undertaking, or (d) any dissolution, termination or increase, decrease or change in personnel by Borrower, or (e) any payment
made to any Guaranteed Creditor on the Guaranteed Obligations which any such Guaranteed Creditor repays to Borrower pursuant to court order in any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium or other debtor relief proceeding, and Holdings
waives any right to the deferral or modification of its obligations hereunder by reason of any such proceeding. 
  

 -70- 

 12.4 Independent Obligation. The obligations of Holdings hereunder are independent of the
obligations of any other guarantor, any other party or Borrower, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against Holdings whether or not action is brought against any other guarantor, any other party or Borrower and whether or
not any other guarantor, any other party or Borrower be joined in any such action or actions. Holdings waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting its liability hereunder or the enforcement
thereof. Any payment by Borrower or other circumstance which operates to toll any statute of limitations as to Borrower shall operate to toll the statute of limitations as to Holdings. 
  
 12.5 Authorization. Holdings authorizes the Guaranteed Creditors without notice or demand (except as shall be
required by applicable statute and cannot be waived), and without affecting or impairing its liability hereunder, from time to time to: 
  
 (a) change the manner, place or terms of payment of, and/or change or extend the time of payment of, renew, increase, accelerate or alter, any of the
Guaranteed Obligations (including any increase or decrease in the principal amount thereof or the rate of interest or fees thereon), any security therefor, or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof, and the Guaranty herein
made shall apply to the Guaranteed Obligations as so changed, extended, renewed or altered; 
  
 (b) take and hold security for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations and sell, exchange, release, impair, surrender, realize upon or otherwise deal with in any manner and in any order any property by whomsoever at
any time pledged or mortgaged to secure, or howsoever securing, the Guaranteed Obligations or any liabilities (including any of those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and/or any offset thereagainst;

  
 (c) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against
Borrower, any other Credit Party or others or otherwise act or refrain from acting; 
  
 (d) release or substitute any one or more endorsers, guarantors, Borrower, other Credit Parties or other obligors; 
  
 (e) settle or compromise any of the Guaranteed Obligations, any security therefor or any liability (including any of those hereunder) incurred directly or
indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and may subordinate the payment of all or any part thereof to the payment of any liability (whether due or not) of Borrower to its creditors other than the Guaranteed Creditors; 
  
 (f) apply any sums by whomsoever paid or howsoever realized to any liability
or liabilities of Borrower to the Guaranteed Creditors regardless of what liability or liabilities of Borrower remain unpaid; 
  
 (g) consent to or waive any breach of, or any act, omission or default under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, any Interest Rate Protection
Agreement or any Other 

  

 -71- 

 
Hedging Agreement or any of the instruments or agreements referred to herein or therein, or otherwise amend, modify or supplement this Agreement, any other
Loan Document, any Interest Rate Protection Agreement or any Other Hedging Agreement or any of such other instruments or agreements; and/or 
  
 (h) take any other action which would, under otherwise applicable principles of common law, give rise to a legal or equitable discharge of Holdings from
its liabilities under this Guaranty. 
  
 12.6 Reliance. It
is not necessary for any Guaranteed Creditor to inquire into the capacity or powers of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries or the officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on their behalf, and any Guaranteed Obligations
made or created in reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall be guaranteed hereunder. 
  
 12.7 Subordination. Any indebtedness of Borrower now or hereafter owing to Holdings is hereby subordinated to the Guaranteed Obligations of
Borrower owing to the Guaranteed Creditors; and if the Agent so requests at a time when an Event of Default exists, all such indebtedness of Borrower to Holdings shall be collected, enforced and received by Holdings for the benefit of the Guaranteed
Creditors and be paid over to the Agent on behalf of the Guaranteed Creditors on account of the Guaranteed Obligations of Borrower to the Guaranteed Creditors, but without affecting or impairing in any manner the liability of Holdings under the
other provisions of this Guaranty. Prior to the transfer by Holdings of any note or negotiable instrument evidencing any such indebtedness of Borrower to Holdings, Holdings shall mark such note or negotiable instrument with a legend that the same is
subject to this subordination. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Holdings hereby agrees with the Guaranteed Creditors that it will not exercise any right of subrogation which it may at any time otherwise have as a result of this
Guaranty (whether contractual, under Section 509 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise) until all Guaranteed Obligations have been irrevocably paid in full in cash. 
  
 12.8 Waiver. (a) Holdings waives any right (except as shall be required by applicable statute and cannot be waived)
to require any Guaranteed Creditor to (i) proceed against Borrower, any Guarantor or any other party, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party or (iii) pursue any other remedy in any
Guaranteed Creditor’s power whatsoever. Holdings waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of Borrower, any Guarantor or any other party, other than payment of the Guaranteed Obligations to the extent of such payment, based on
or arising out of the disability of Borrower, Holdings, any Guarantor or any other party, or the validity, legality or unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the
liability of Borrower other than payment of the Guaranteed Obligations to the extent of such payment. The Guaranteed Creditors may, at their election, foreclose on any security held by the Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Guaranteed Creditor
by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, whether or not every aspect of any such sale is commercially reasonable (to the extent such sale is permitted by applicable law), or exercise any other right or remedy the Guaranteed Creditors may have
against Borrower or any other party, or any security, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of Holdings hereunder except to the extent the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid. Holdings waives any 

  

 -72- 

 
defense arising out of any such election by the Guaranteed Creditors, even though such election operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement
or subrogation or other right or remedy of Holdings against Borrower or any other party or any security. 
  
 (b) Holdings waives all presentments, demands for performance, protests and notices, including without limitation notices of nonperformance, notices of
protest, notices of dishonor, notices of acceptance of this Guaranty, and notices of the existence, creation or incurring of new or additional Guaranteed Obligations. Holdings assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of
Borrower’s financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks which Holdings assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees
that neither the Agent nor any of the other Guaranteed Creditors shall have any duty to advise Holdings of information known to them regarding such circumstances or risks. 
  
 12.9 Nature of Liability. It is the desire and intent of Holdings and the Guaranteed Creditors that this Guaranty
shall be enforced against Holdings to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. If, however, and to the extent that, the obligations of Holdings under this Guaranty
shall be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason (including, without limitation, because of any applicable state or federal law relating to fraudulent conveyances or transfers), then the amount of Holdings’ obligations under
this Guaranty shall be deemed to be reduced and Holdings shall pay the maximum amount of the Guaranteed Obligations which would be permissible under applicable law.

 ANNEX B (Section 1.2) 
 to 
 CREDIT AGREEMENT 
  
 LETTERS OF CREDIT 
  
 (a) Issuance. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement,
Agent and Revolving Lenders agree to incur, from time to time prior to the Commitment Termination Date, upon the request of Borrower and for Borrower’s account, Letter of Credit Obligations by causing Letters of Credit to be issued by GE
Capital or a Subsidiary thereof or a bank or other legally authorized Person selected by or acceptable to Agent in its sole discretion (each, an “L/C Issuer”) for Borrower’s account and guaranteed by Agent; provided,
that if the L/C Issuer is a Revolving Lender, then such Letters of Credit shall not be guaranteed by Agent but rather each Revolving Lender shall, subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, purchase (or be deemed to have purchased)
risk participations in all such Letters of Credit issued with the written consent of Agent, as more fully described in paragraph (b)(ii) below. The aggregate amount of all such Letter of Credit Obligations shall not at any time exceed the lesser of
(i) Thirty Million Dollars ($30,000,000) (the “L/C Sublimit”), and (ii) the Maximum Amount less the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Credit Advances. No such Letter of Credit shall have an expiry date that is
more than one year following the date of issuance thereof, unless otherwise determined by Agent in its sole discretion (including with respect to customary evergreen provisions), and neither Agent nor Revolving Lenders shall be under any obligation
to incur Letter of Credit Obligations in respect of, or purchase risk participations in, any Letter of Credit having an expiry date that is later than the Commitment Termination Date. 
  
 (b)(i) Advances Automatic; Participations. In the event that Agent or any Revolving Lender shall make any payment on
or pursuant to any Letter of Credit Obligation, such payment shall then be deemed automatically to constitute a Revolving Credit Advance to Borrower under Section 1.1(a) of the Agreement regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing and notwithstanding Borrower’s failure to satisfy the conditions precedent set forth in Section 2, and each Revolving Lender shall be obligated to pay its Pro Rata Share thereof in accordance with the
Agreement. The failure of any Revolving Lender to make available to Agent for Agent’s own account its Pro Rata Share of any such Revolving Credit Advance or payment by Agent under or in respect of a Letter of Credit shall not relieve any other
Revolving Lender of its obligation hereunder to make available to Agent its Pro Rata Share thereof, but no Revolving Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Revolving Lender to make available such other Revolving Lender’s Pro
Rata Share of any such payment. 
  
 (ii) If it shall be illegal
or unlawful for Borrower to incur Revolving Credit Advances as contemplated by paragraph (b)(i) above because of an Event of Default described in Section 8.1(e) or otherwise or if it shall be illegal or unlawful for any Revolving Lender to be
deemed to have assumed a ratable share of the reimbursement obligations owed to an L/C Issuer, or if the L/C Issuer is a Revolving Lender, then (A) immediately and without further action whatsoever, each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to have
irrevocably and unconditionally purchased from Agent (or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be) an undivided interest and participation equal to such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share (based on the 

 
Revolving Loan Commitments) of the Letter of Credit Obligations in respect of all Letters of Credit then outstanding and (B) thereafter, immediately upon
issuance of any Letter of Credit, each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased from Agent (or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be) an undivided interest and participation in such Revolving Lender’s Pro
Rata Share (based on the Revolving Loan Commitments) of the Letter of Credit Obligations with respect to such Letter of Credit on the date of such issuance. Each Revolving Lender shall fund its participation in all payments or disbursements made
under the Letters of Credit in the same manner as provided in the Agreement with respect to Revolving Credit Advances. 
  
 (c) Cash Collateral. (i) If Borrower is required to provide cash collateral for any Letter of Credit Obligations pursuant to the Agreement,
including Section 8.2 of the Agreement, prior to the Commitment Termination Date, Borrower will pay to Agent for the ratable benefit of itself and Revolving Lenders cash or cash equivalents acceptable to Agent (“Cash
Equivalents”) in an amount equal to 105% of the maximum amount then available to be drawn under each applicable Letter of Credit outstanding. Such funds or Cash Equivalents shall be held by Agent in a cash collateral account (the
“Cash Collateral Account”) maintained at a bank or financial institution acceptable to Agent. The Cash Collateral Account shall be in the name of Borrower and shall be pledged to, and subject to the control of, Agent, for the
benefit of Agent and Lenders, in a manner satisfactory to Agent. Borrower hereby pledges and grants to Agent, on behalf of itself and Lenders, a security interest in all such funds and Cash Equivalents held in the Cash Collateral Account from time
to time and all proceeds thereof, as security for the payment of all amounts due in respect of the Letter of Credit Obligations and other Obligations, whether or not then due. The Agreement, including this Annex B, shall constitute a security
agreement under applicable law. 
  
 (ii) If any
Letter of Credit Obligations, whether or not then due and payable, shall for any reason be outstanding on the Commitment Termination Date, Borrower shall either (A) provide cash collateral therefor in the manner described above, or (B) cause all
such Letters of Credit and guaranties thereof, if any, to be canceled and returned, or (C) deliver a stand-by letter (or letters) of credit in guaranty of such Letter of Credit Obligations, which stand-by letter (or letters) of credit shall be of
like tenor and duration (plus thirty (30) additional days) as, and in an amount equal to 105% of the aggregate maximum amount then available to be drawn under, the Letters of Credit to which such outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations relate and
shall be issued by a Person, and shall be subject to such terms and conditions, as are be satisfactory to Agent in its sole discretion. 
  
 (iii) From time to time after funds are deposited in the Cash Collateral Account by Borrower, whether before or after the Commitment
Termination Date, Agent may apply such funds or Cash Equivalents then held in the Cash Collateral Account to the payment of any amounts, and in such order as Agent may elect, as shall be or shall become due and payable by Borrower to Agent and
Lenders with respect to such Letter of Credit Obligations of Borrower and, upon the satisfaction in full of all Letter of Credit Obligations of Borrower, to any other Obligations then due and payable. 
  

 B-2 

 (iv) Neither Borrower nor any Person claiming on behalf of or through Borrower shall have
any right to withdraw any of the funds or Cash Equivalents held in the Cash Collateral Account, except that upon the termination of all Letter of Credit Obligations and the payment of all amounts payable by Borrower to Agent and Lenders in respect
thereof, any funds remaining in the Cash Collateral Account shall be applied to other Obligations then due and owing and upon payment in full of such Obligations any remaining amount shall be paid to Borrower or as otherwise required by law.
Interest earned on deposits in the Cash Collateral Account shall be held as additional collateral. 
  
 (v) From time to time after funds are deposited in the Cash Collateral Account by Borrower prior to the Commitment Termination Date, at
the request of Borrower, Agent shall release such funds or Cash Equivalents then held in the Cash Collateral Account to the extent that the Letter of Credit Obligations secured thereby have been satisfied in full or Borrower is no longer required to
cash collateralize such Letter of Credit Obligations pursuant to the terms of the Agreement. 
  
 (d) Fees and Expenses. Borrower agrees to pay to Agent for the benefit of Revolving Lenders, as compensation to such Lenders for Letter of Credit Obligations incurred hereunder, (i) all costs and expenses
incurred by Agent or any Lender on account of such Letter of Credit Obligations, and (ii) for each month during which any Letter of Credit Obligation shall remain outstanding, a fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) in an amount equal to
the Applicable L/C Margin from time to time in effect multiplied by the maximum amount available from time to time to be drawn under the applicable Letter of Credit. Such fee shall be paid to Agent for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders in
arrears, on the first day of each month and on the Commitment Termination Date. In addition, Borrower shall pay to any L/C Issuer, on demand, such fees (including all per annum fees), charges and expenses of such L/C Issuer in respect of the
issuance, negotiation, acceptance, amendment, transfer and payment of such Letter of Credit or otherwise payable pursuant to the application and related documentation under which such Letter of Credit is issued. 
  
 (e) Request for Incurrence of Letter of Credit Obligations. Borrower
shall give Agent at least two (2) Business Days’ prior written notice requesting the incurrence of any Letter of Credit Obligation. The notice shall be accompanied by the form of the Letter of Credit (which shall be acceptable to the L/C
Issuer) and a completed Application for Standby Letter of Credit in the form Exhibit B-1. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Letter of Credit applications by Borrower and approvals by Agent and the L/C Issuer may be
made and transmitted pursuant to electronic codes and security measures mutually agreed upon and established by and among Borrower, Agent and the L/C Issuer. 
  
 (f) Obligation Absolute. The obligation of Borrower to reimburse Agent and Revolving Lenders for payments made with respect to any Letter of Credit
Obligation shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, without necessity of presentment, demand, protest or other formalities, and the obligations of each Revolving Lender to make payments to Agent with respect to Letters of Credit shall be
unconditional and irrevocable. Such obligations of Borrower and Revolving Lenders shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms hereof under all circumstances including the following: 
  
 (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of
Credit or the Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any other agreement; 
  

 B-3

with the Agreement, the Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated herein or therein or any unrelated transaction (including any underlying transaction between Borrower or any of its Affiliates and the beneficiary for which the Letter of Credit
was procured); 
  
 (iii) any draft, demand,
certificate or any other document presented under any 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; 
  
 (iv) payment by Agent (except as otherwise expressly
provided in paragraph (g)(ii)(C) below) or any L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof against presentation of a demand, draft or certificate or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or such
guaranty; 
  
 (v) any other circumstance or event
whatsoever, that is similar to any of the foregoing; or 
  
 (vi) the fact that a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. 
  
 (g) Indemnification; Nature of Lenders’ Duties. 
  
 (i) In addition to amounts payable as elsewhere provided in the Agreement, Borrower hereby agrees to pay and
to protect, indemnify, and save harmless Agent and each Lender from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and allocated costs of internal
counsel) that Agent or any Lender may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (A) the issuance of any Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof, or (B) the failure of Agent or any Lender seeking indemnification or of any L/C
Issuer to honor a demand for payment under any Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof as a result of any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto government or Governmental Authority, in each case
other than to the extent as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Agent or such Lender (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction). 
  
 (ii) As between Agent and any Lender and Borrower, Borrower assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of,
or misuse of any Letter of Credit by beneficiaries of any Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, to the fullest extent permitted by law neither Agent nor any Lender shall be responsible for: (A) the form, validity,
sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document issued by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of any Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient,
inaccurate, 
  

 B-4 

 fraudulent or forged; (B) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or
purporting to transfer or assign any Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, that may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (C) failure of the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit
to comply fully with conditions required in order to demand payment under such Letter of Credit; provided, that in the case of any payment by Agent under any Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof, Agent shall be liable to the extent such
payment was made solely as a result of its gross negligence or willful misconduct (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction) in determining that the demand for payment under such Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof complies on its
face with any applicable requirements for a demand for payment under such Letter of Credit or guaranty thereof; (D) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or

 (iii) Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit or to expand any waivers, covenants or indemnities made by Borrower in favor of
any L/C Issuer in any letter of credit application, reimbursement agreement or similar document, instrument or agreement between or among Borrower and such L/C Issuer, including a Master Standby Agreement entered into with Agent.

 COLLATERAL REPORTS 
  
 Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered the following: 
  
 (a) Borrower, at its own expense, shall deliver to Agent such appraisals of

 ANNEX G (Section 6.10) 
 to 
 CREDIT AGREEMENT 
  
 FINANCIAL COVENANTS 
  
 Borrower shall not breach or fail to comply with any of the following
financial covenants, each of which shall be calculated in accordance with GAAP consistently applied: 
  
 (a) Maximum Capital Expenditures. 
  
 (i) Holdings will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, make any Capital Expenditures, except that during any Fiscal Year
of Holdings (including the Fiscal Year ending December 31, 2004) (taken as one accounting period), Holdings and its Subsidiaries may make Capital Expenditures so long as the aggregate amount of all such Capital Expenditures does not exceed
$15,000,000 plus 2% of Holdings’ and its Subsidiaries’ consolidated net revenues from operations for Holdings’ immediately preceding Fiscal Year (determined on a Pro Forma Basis to take into account all Permitted
Acquisitions and Asset Sales consummated during such immediately preceding Fiscal Year). 
  
 (ii) In addition to the foregoing, in the event that the amount of Capital Expenditures permitted to be made by Holdings and its
Subsidiaries pursuant to clause (a) above in any Fiscal Year of Holdings (before giving effect to any increase in such permitted Capital Expenditure amount pursuant to this clause (b)) is greater than the amount of Capital Expenditures actually made
by Holdings and its Subsidiaries during such Fiscal Year (or such period, as the case may be), such excess may be carried forward and utilized to make Capital Expenditures in the immediately succeeding Fiscal Year, provided that no amounts once
carried forward pursuant to this Section may be carried forward to any Fiscal Year of Holdings thereafter. 
  
 (iii) In addition to the foregoing, Borrower, the Subsidiary Guarantors and, to the extent provided in Section 5.13, Holdings, in
each case may consummate Permitted Acquisitions in accordance with the requirements of Section 5.13. 
  
 (b) Maximum Total Leverage Ratio. Holdings and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis shall have, at the end of each Fiscal Quarter ending after
the Closing Date, a Total Leverage Ratio for the 12-Fiscal Month period then ended, a Total Leverage Ratio of not more than 8.50:1.00. 
  
 (c) Maximum Senior Leverage Ratio. Holdings and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis shall have, at the end of each Fiscal Quarter ending after
the Closing Date, a Senior Leverage Ratio for the 12 Fiscal Month period then ended of not more than 3.50:1.00. 
  
 (d) Minimum Consolidated Cash Interest Coverage Ratio. Holdings and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis shall not have, at the end of each
Fiscal Quarter ending after 

 
the Closing Date, a Consolidated Cash Interest Coverage Ratio for the 12 Fiscal Month period then ended less than the ratio set forth opposite such Fiscal
Quarter below: 
  

			
	 Fiscal Quarter

	  	Ending Ratio

	 From the Closing Date through December 30, 2004
	  	1.30:1.00
	 From December 31, 2004 through December 30, 2005
	  	1.40:1.00
	 From December 31, 2005 and thereafter
	  	1.50:1.00

  
 Unless otherwise
specifically provided herein, any accounting term used in the Agreement shall have the meaning customarily given such term in accordance with GAAP, and all financial computations hereunder shall be computed in accordance with GAAP consistently
applied. That certain items or computations are explicitly modified by the phrase “in accordance with GAAP” shall in no way be construed to limit the foregoing. If any “Accounting Changes” (as defined below) occur and such
changes result in a change in the calculation of the financial covenants, standards or terms used in the Agreement or any other Loan Document, then Borrower, Agent and Lenders agree to enter into negotiations in order to amend such provisions of the
Agreement so as to equitably reflect such Accounting Changes with the desired result that the criteria for evaluating Borrower’s and its Subsidiaries’ financial condition shall be the same after such Accounting Changes as if such
Accounting Changes had not been made; provided, however, that the agreement of Requisite Lenders to any required amendments of such provisions shall be sufficient to bind all Lenders. “Accounting Changes” means (i) changes in
accounting principles required by the promulgation of any rule, regulation, pronouncement or opinion by the Financial Accounting Standards Board of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (or successor thereto or any agency with
similar functions), (ii) changes in accounting principles concurred in by Borrower’s certified public accountants; (iii) purchase accounting adjustments under A.P.B. 16 or 17 and EITF 88-16, and the application of the accounting principles set
forth in FASB 109, including the establishment of reserves pursuant thereto and any subsequent reversal (in whole or in part) of such reserves; and (iv) the reversal of any reserves established as a result of purchase accounting adjustments. All
such adjustments relating to the foregoing amounts resulting from expenditures made subsequent to the Closing Date (including capitalization of costs and expenses or payment of pre-Closing Date liabilities) shall be treated as expenses in the period
the expenditures are made and deducted as part of the calculation of Consolidated EBITDA in such period. If Agent, Borrower and Requisite Lenders agree upon the required amendments, then after appropriate amendments have been executed and the
underlying Accounting Change with respect thereto has been implemented, any reference to GAAP contained in the Agreement or in any other Loan Document shall, only to the extent of such Accounting Change, refer to GAAP, consistently applied after
giving effect to the implementation of such Accounting Change. If Agent, Borrower and Requisite Lenders cannot agree upon the required amendments within thirty (30) days following the date of implementation of any Accounting Change, then all
Financial Statements delivered and all 

  

 G-2 

 
calculations of financial covenants and other standards and terms in accordance with the Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be prepared, delivered
and made without regard to the underlying Accounting Change. For purposes of Section 8.1, a breach of a Financial Covenant contained in this Annex G shall be deemed to have occurred as of any date of determination by Agent (with
respect to the covenant regarding Maximum Capital Expenditures in clause (a) above) or as of the last day of any specified measurement period, regardless of when the Financial Statements reflecting such breach are delivered to Agent.
