 THIS REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT (this
“Agreement”) is made and entered into as of June 3, 2005, by and among Valley National Bancorp, a corporation chartered under the laws of the State of New Jersey (“Valley”), The NorCrown Trust, a
trust organized under the laws of the State of New Jersey, (the “Trust”), and the persons listed on Exhibit A attached hereto (with the Trust, and each person listed on Exhibit A being referred to individually
as a “Shareholder” and collectively as the “Shareholders”). 
 WHEREAS, immediately
prior to the consummation of the Merger (as defined below), Shareholders were the owners of shares of common stock in NorCrown Bank, a commercial bank chartered under the laws of the State of New Jersey (the “NorCrown”) set
forth opposite their names on Exhibit A attached hereto; 
 WHEREAS, the Shareholders have been issued Common Shares (defined
below) in connection with the merger (the “Merger”) of NorCrown with and into Valley National Bank (“VNB”), a commercial bank chartered under the laws of the State of New Jersey and a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Valley, pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of November 9, 2004, (the “Merger Agreement”), among Valley, VNB, NorCrown, and the Trust; 
 WHEREAS, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement and subject to the terms hereof, Valley has agreed to grant to the Shareholders the
registration rights provided for below. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto, in consideration of the foregoing, the mutual covenants
and agreements set forth in the Merger Agreement and hereinafter set forth, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, agree as follows: 
 1. Certain Definitions. As used in this Agreement, the following capitalized defined terms shall have the following meanings:

 “Common Shares” shall mean shares of no par value common stock of Valley. 
 “Person” shall mean any individual, corporation, company, partnership, association, trust, estate or other natural
or juridical entity or organization, including without limitation any foreign, domestic, federal, territorial, state or local governmental authority, quasi-governmental authority, instrumentality, court, government, self-regulatory organization,
commission, or tribunal or any regulatory, administrative or other agency, or political or other subdivision, department or branch of any of the foregoing. 
 “Prospectus” shall mean any prospectus included in the Registration Statement, including any resale prospectus and any preliminary prospectus, and any amendment or supplement
thereto, and in each case including all material incorporated by reference therein. 

 “Registration Expenses” shall mean the following expenses incident
to performance of or compliance with this Agreement: (i) all applicable registration and filing fees imposed by the SEC and any securities exchange or exchanges, if any, on which Common Shares are then listed or the National Association of
Securities Dealers, Inc. (the “NASD”); (ii) all fees and expenses incurred in connection with compliance with state securities or “blue sky” laws (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel in
connection with qualification of any of the Shares under any state securities or blue sky laws and the preparation of a blue sky memorandum) and compliance with the rules of the NASD; (iii) all expenses of any Persons in preparing or assisting
in preparing, printing and distributing the Registration Statement, any Prospectus, stock certificates and other documents relating to the performance of and compliance with this Agreement; (iv) all fees and expenses incurred in connection with
the listing, if any, of any of the Shares on any securities exchange or exchanges pursuant to Section 3(i) hereof; and (v) the fees and disbursements of counsel for Valley and of the independent public accountants of Valley, including the
expenses relating to any special audits or “cold comfort” letters required by or incident to such performance and compliance. “Registration Expenses” shall specifically exclude underwriting discounts and commissions
relating to the Shares, the fees and disbursements of counsel representing any Shareholder, the fees and disbursements of counsel representing any underwriters relating to the Shares, transfer taxes, if any, relating to the sale or disposition of
Shares by any Shareholder and any other expenses not included in the preceding sentence. 
 “SEC” shall
mean the Securities and Exchange Commission or any successor entity. 
 “Securities Act” shall mean the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended from time to time. 
 “Shares” shall mean the Common Shares now or
hereafter issued to the Shareholders pursuant to the Merger Agreement, and any additional Common Shares that may be received as stock dividends payable with respect to those Common Shares or otherwise received in connection with any stock split,
exchange, conversion or recapitalization of Valley. 
 2. Registration Under the Securities Act. 
 (a) Registration. Subject to Section 6(b) below and provided the Shareholders have fulfilled their obligations under
Section 4 hereof, Valley shall file a registration statement on Form S-3, or any applicable form promulgated by the SEC for which Valley is eligible (including any amendments thereto, the “Registration Statement”),
relating to the sale of all of the Shares within five (5) days following receipt of a written request by the Trust, and Valley shall use its best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC as soon as
practicable thereafter. Subject to Section 6(b) below, Valley agrees to use its best efforts to keep the Registration Statement continuously effective pursuant to Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act (and to include therein a
prospectus at all times meeting the requirements of the Securities Act) during the period ((the “Effectiveness Period”) beginning on the date a Registration Statement filed hereunder (the “Initial
Registration”) first becomes effective and ending on the earlier of (i) two years from the date of effectiveness of the Initial Registration, or (ii) the expiration of the holding period applicable to the Shares issued to

  

 2 

 
the Shareholders in the Merger pursuant to Rule 144(k), or any successor provision, promulgated under the Securities Act, as such provision may be amended
from time to time. 
 (b) Expenses. Valley shall pay all Registration Expenses in connection with a registration
pursuant to this Agreement. The Shareholders shall pay all underwriting discounts and commissions relating to the Shares, the fees and disbursements of counsel representing the Shareholders, the fees and disbursements of counsel representing any
underwriters relating to Shares, transfer taxes, if any, relating to the sale or disposition of Shares by the Shareholders and any other expenses of the Shareholders not included in the definition of Registration Expenses. Such expenses shall be
allocated among the Shareholders in proportion to their holding of Shares. 
 (c) Subsequent Registration. If the
Initial Registration or any Subsequent Registration ceases to be effective for any reasons at any time during the Effectiveness Period (other than because of the sale of all of the securities registered thereunder), Valley shall use its best efforts
to obtain the prompt withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness thereof, and in any event shall within 30 days of such cessation of effectiveness amend the Registration in a manner to obtain the withdrawal of the order suspending the
effectiveness thereof, or file an additional “shelf” Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 415 covering all of the Shares (a “Subsequent Registration”). If a Subsequent Registration is filed, Valley shall use its
best efforts to cause the Subsequent Registration to be declared effective as soon as practicable after such filing and to keep such Subsequent Registration continuously effective during the Effectiveness Period. As used herein, the term
“Registration” means the Initial Registration and any Subsequent Registration. 
 3. Registration
Procedures. In connection with the obligations of Valley under Section 2 hereof, Valley shall: 
 (a) prepare and
file with the SEC, within the time period set forth in Section 2 hereof, and use its best efforts to have declared effective by the SEC, the Registration Statement, which shall (i) be available for public resale of the Shares by the
Shareholders; and (ii) comply as to form in all material respects with the requirements of the applicable form and include all financial statements required by the SEC to be filed therewith; 
 (b) (i) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments to the Registration Statement as may be necessary to keep it effective for the
effectiveness period; (ii) cause any Prospectus to be amended or supplemented as required and to be filed as required by Rule 424 or any similar rule that may be adopted under the Securities Act; and (iii) respond as promptly as
practicable to any comments received from the SEC with respect to the Registration Statement or any amendment thereto; 
 (c)
furnish to the Shareholders, upon request and without charge, as many copies of any Registration Statement, preliminary Prospectus or Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto as the Shareholders may reasonably request in order to
facilitate the public sale or other disposition of the Shares; 
  

 3 

 (d) use its best efforts to register or qualify the Shares under all applicable state
securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions in the United States and its territories and possessions as the Shareholders may reasonably request in writing and keep such registration or qualification effective during the period the Registration
Statement is required to be kept effective; provided, however, that in connection therewith, Valley shall not be required to (i) qualify as a foreign corporation to do business or to register as a broker or dealer in any such
jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify or register but for this section 3(d), or (ii) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction with respect to such registration or qualification; 
 (e) notify the Shareholders promptly and, if requested by the Shareholders, confirm in writing, (i) when the Registration Statement
and any post-effective amendments thereto have become effective, (ii) when any amendment or supplement to a Prospectus has been filed with the SEC, (iii) of the issuance by the SEC or any state securities authority of any stop order
suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or any part thereof or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose, (iv) if Valley receives any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Shares for
offer or sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation of any proceeding for such purpose, (v) the identity and contact information for the registrar and/or transfer agent for the Shares together with instructions relating to the delivery by the
Shareholders of the Shares to be held for sale pursuant to the Registration Statement, and (vi) of the happening of any event during the period the Registration Statement is effective as a result of which (A) the Registration Statement
contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or (B) a Prospectus as then amended or supplemented contains any
untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; 
 (f) use best efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement by the SEC or any
state securities authority as promptly as possible; 
 (g) furnish to the Shareholders upon request, without charge, at least
one conformed copy of the Registration Statement and any post-effective amendment thereto (without documents incorporated therein by reference or exhibits thereto); 
 (h) cooperate with the Shareholders to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Shares to be sold and
not bearing any Securities Act legend and enable certificates for such Shares to be issued for such numbers of Shares and registered in such names as the Shareholders may reasonably request; 
 (i) cause all Shares registered pursuant hereunder to be listed on the securities exchange or automated quotation system on which similar
securities issued by Valley are then listed. 
 4. Certain Agreements of the Shareholders. The Shareholders agree to furnish to
Valley in writing such information regarding the Shareholders and their proposed 

  

 4 

 
distribution of Shares as Valley may from time to time reasonably request in connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement or the
registration or qualification of the Shares under state securities or blue sky laws. 
 5. Indemnification, Contribution.

 (a) Indemnification by Valley. Valley agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Shareholders and their assigns as
follows: 
 (i) subject to the limitation set forth in Section 5(c), against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage
and expense whatsoever, as incurred, to which the Shareholders may become subject under the Securities Act or otherwise (A) that arise out of or are based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the
Registration Statement or any amendment thereto or any related filing, or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or (B) that
arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, or, the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary in
order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; 
 (ii)
subject to the limitation set forth in Section 5(c), against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any litigation, investigation or proceeding
by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or of any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement, any omission or alleged omission, if such settlement is effected with the written consent of
Valley; and 
 (iii) subject to the limitations set forth in Section 5(c), against any and all expense (including
reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, in each case whether or not a
party, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement, omission or alleged omission that relates to the sale by the Shareholders of Shares under the Registration Statement, to the extent that any such
expense is not paid under subparagraph (i) or (ii) above or (d) below; 
 provided, however, that the indemnity provided pursuant to
this Section 5(a) shall not apply to any Shareholder with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense that arises out of or is based solely upon (1) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged
omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to Valley by any Shareholder with respect to any such Shareholder for use in the Registration Statement or any amendment thereto or a Prospectus or any amendment or
supplement thereto or (2) trades made by any Shareholder in violation of section 6(a) below or (3) trades made by any Shareholder in violation of the prospectus delivery requirements of Section 5(b) of the Securities Act. This
indemnity in Section 5(a) is in addition to any liability which Valley may otherwise have. 
  

 5 

 (b) Indemnification by the Shareholders. Each Shareholder (with respect to that
particular Shareholder and the Shares owned by that particular Shareholder) agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Valley, each director of Valley, each officer of Valley who signed the Registration Statement and each other Person, if any, who
controls Valley within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, to the same extent as the indemnity contained in Section 5(a) hereof, but only insofar as such loss, liability, claim damage or expense arises out of or is based
solely upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Registration Statement or any amendment thereto or a Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto in reliance upon and in
conformity with written information furnished to Valley by the Shareholder with respect to the Shareholder for use therein or (ii) trades made by the Shareholder in violation of Section 6(a) below or (iii) trades made by the
Shareholder in violation of the prospectus delivery requirements of Section 5(b) of the Securities Act or (iv) any sale of Shares by the Shareholder at any time prohibited by this Agreement; provided, that, in the case of the
Shareholder’s obligation set forth in this Section 5(b) relating to Section 5(a)(ii) above, such settlement must be effected with the written consent of the Shareholder. 
 (c) Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. The indemnified party shall give prompt notice to the indemnifying party of any action
or proceeding commenced against it in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, but failure to so notify an indemnifying party (i) shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have under the indemnity agreement provided in
Section 5(a) or (b) above, unless and to the extent it did not otherwise learn of such action and the lack of notice by the indemnified party prejudices the indemnifying party or results in the forfeiture by the indemnifying party of
substantial rights and defenses and (ii) shall not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided under Section 5(a) or (b) above. After
receipt of such notice, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in and, at its option, jointly with any other indemnifying party so notified, to assume the defense of such action or proceeding at such indemnifying party’s own
expense with counsel chosen by such indemnifying party; provided, however, that, if the defendants in any such action or proceeding include both an indemnified party and an indemnifying party and the indemnified party reasonably determines,
upon advice of counsel, that a conflict of interest exists or that there may be legal defenses available to it or other indemnified parties that are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying parties, then the indemnified
parties shall be entitled to counsel (which shall be limited to a single law firm for all indemnified parties) the reasonable fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the indemnifying parties. If the indemnifying party does not assume the defense
of any such action or proceeding, after having received the notice referred to in the first sentence of this paragraph, the indemnifying parties will pay the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel (which will be limited to a single law firm for all
indemnified parties) for the indemnified parties. In such event, however, no indemnifying party will be liable for any settlement effected without the prior written consent of such indemnifying party. If one or more of the indemnifying parties
assumes the defense of any such action or proceeding in accordance with this paragraph, such indemnifying party shall not be liable for any fees and expenses of counsel for the indemnified parties incurred thereafter in connection with 

  

 6 

 
such action or proceeding except as set forth in the proviso in the second sentence of this Section 5(c). 
 (d) Contribution. 
 (i) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnity agreement provided for in this Section 5 is for any reason held to be unenforceable although applicable in
accordance with its terms, the indemnifying parties shall contribute to the aggregate losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses of the nature contemplated by such indemnity agreement incurred by the indemnified party, in such proportion as
is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of and benefits to each indemnifying party and each indemnified party in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claim, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any
other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits to the indemnifying parties and indemnified parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things, the total proceeds received by each indemnifying party and indemnified party
in connection with the offering to which such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses relate. The relative fault of each indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the action in
question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, has been made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the
parties’ relative intent, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. 
 (ii) The parties
hereto agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 5(d) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to
in Section 5(d)(i) above. 
 (iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation
(within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 5(d), each director of Valley, each officer
of Valley who signed the Registration Statement and each Person, if any, who controls Valley within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act shall have the same rights to contribution as Valley. 
 (e) Notwithstanding any term or condition to the contrary, the liability of a Shareholder pursuant to this Section 5 shall be limited
to the gross proceeds received by such Shareholder as a result of the sale giving rise to the liability. 
 (f) The
obligations of Valley and the Shareholders under this Section 5 shall survive the completion of any offering of the Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement. 
  

 7 

 6. Suspension of Registration Requirement. 
 (a) Immediately prior to any anticipated sale of the Shares by a Shareholder subject to the Registration Statement, the Shareholder shall
notify Valley in writing of the anticipated sale of the Shares. Each Shareholder agrees that he will not effect any sales of Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement after the Shareholder has received notice from Valley to suspend sales as a
result of the occurrence or existence of any Suspension Event (as defined in section 6(b) below) until Valley provides written notice to the Shareholder that all Suspension Events have ceased to exist. Each Shareholder agrees that he will not effect
any sales of Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement after the Shareholder has received notice from Valley to suspend sales because the Registration Statement, any Prospectus or any supplement thereto contains an untrue statement of a material
fact or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, until Valley notifies the Shareholder that the misstatement or omission has been
corrected. Valley agrees that the period of time during which the Registration Statement must be kept effective pursuant to clause (i) of Section 2(a) shall be extended by a period which is not less than the aggregate number of days during
which any suspension under this Section 6(a) or any Suspension Event is in effect. 
 (b) Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary set forth in this Agreement, Valley’s obligation to file the Registration Statement and make any filings with any state securities authority, to use its best efforts to cause the Registration Statement or any state securities filings
to become effective or to remain effective, or to amend or supplement the Registration Statement or any state securities filings shall be suspended in the event of and during a Suspension Event. A “Suspension Event” shall
exist at such times as circumstances exist that Valley determines in good faith, on advice of counsel, that the filing, amending or supplementing of the Registration Statement or such filings or the causing of the Registration Statement or such
filings to become effective or to remain effective or for the sale of Shares to occur under the Registration Statement shall require disclosure under applicable securities laws of material information in the Registration Statement (or any other
document incorporated into the Registration Statement by reference) or such state securities filings as to which Valley has a bona fide business purpose for preserving confidentiality or which renders Valley unable to comply with SEC requirements.
Valley shall notify the Shareholders promptly after any Suspension Event occurs or ceases to exist. Suspension of Valley’s obligations pursuant to this Section 6(b) shall continue for so long as a Suspension Event or its effect is
continuing. 
 (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Shareholders may sell their Shares at any
time, regardless of the existence of a Suspension Event, so long as the Shareholders comply with Rule 144 in effecting any sale of the Shares. 
 7. Miscellaneous. 
 (a) Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement, including the
provisions of this sentence, may not be amended, modified, supplemented or waived, nor may consent to departures therefrom be given, without the written consent of Valley and each Shareholder, provided, however, that any amendment hereunder shall be
effective as to 

  

 8 

 
any Shareholder who consents or agrees to such amendment regardless of whether the other Shareholders have also consented or agreed thereto. 
 (b) Notices. Unless otherwise provided, all notices or other communications required or permitted to be given to the parties hereto
shall be in writing and shall, be deemed to have been given as if personally delivered (including personal delivery by facsimile, provided that the sender receives telephonic or electronic confirmation that the facsimile was received by the
recipient), or three (3) days after mailing by certified or registered mad, return receipt requested, first class postage prepaid, addressed as shown on Exhibit A attached hereto (or at such other address as the addressed party may have
substituted by notice pursuant to this Section 7(b)). 
 (c) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to
the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and assigns of Valley. Except for the Trust, this Agreement and the registration rights granted hereunder shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the legal representatives and heirs of each
Shareholder if he becomes disabled or deceased, and may be assigned by each Shareholder to any immediate family member of the Shareholder (including any great grandchild or grandchild) or a trust or limited partnership established by the
Shareholder, in any such case in connection with an assignment of Common Shares by the Shareholder to such family member, trust or limited partnership by gift or for estate planning purposes, but otherwise may not be assigned by the Shareholder.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no purported assignment by the Shareholders shall be valid unless the assignee agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement. 
 (d) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the parties hereto in separate counterparts,
each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. 
 (e) Headings and Interpretation. The headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof. In construing the meaning of this Agreement, no
party hereto shall be deemed the drafter of this Agreement and this Agreement shall be construed according to its fair meaning and not strictly against any person as the drafter hereof. 
 (f) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New
Jersey without giving effect to the conflicts of law provisions thereof. 
 (g) Entire Agreement. This Agreement is
intended by the parties as a final expression of their agreement and intended to be a complete and exclusive statement of the agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein. This Agreement
supersedes all prior oral and written agreements and understandings and all contemporaneous written agreements and understandings between the parties with respect to such subject matter. 
  

 9 

 (h) This Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect upon the earlier
of the sale of all of the Shares by the Shareholders or the expiration of the restrictions on resale resulting from Rule 145 under the Securities Act. 
  

 10 

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Valley and the Trust have caused this Agreement to be executed by their duly
authorized officers and the Shareholders have each executed this Agreement in their individual capacity, all as of the day and year first above written.

(i) the Aggregate Credit Facility Exposure exceed the Total Revolving Commitment, or (ii) the Credit Facility Exposure of any Lender exceed the aggregate amount of such Lender’s Commitment. 
 Section 2.02 Revolving Facility. 
 (a) Generally. During the Revolving Facility Availability Period, each Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to make a Revolving Loan or Revolving Loans to the Borrower from time to time
pursuant to such Lender’s Revolving Commitment, which Revolving Loans (i) may, except as set forth herein, at the option of the Borrower, be incurred and maintained as, or Converted into, Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans,

 (b) Increase in Revolving Commitments. The Borrower may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, request that the Total Revolving
Commitment be increased by an amount not to exceed $30,000,000 in the aggregate for all such increases from the Closing Date until the Revolving Facility Termination Date, provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing at the time of such request and on the date of any such increase. The Administrative Agent shall deliver a copy of such request to each Lender. The Borrower shall set forth in such request the amount of the requested increase in the Total
Revolving Commitment (which shall be in minimum increments of $10,000,000 and a minimum amount of $10,000,000) and the date on which such increase is requested to become effective (which shall be not less than 10 Business Days nor more than 60 days

 25 

 
Agent shall have delivered notice as set forth above, the Increasing Lenders shall have agreed pursuant to the preceding sentence to increase their Revolving

to the Administrative Agent (each such Person so agreeing being an “Augmenting Lender”), to commit to making Revolving Loans pursuant to a Revolving Commitment hereunder in an amount no less than $10,000,000, and the Borrower and
each Augmenting Lender shall execute all such documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence its Revolving Commitment and/or its status as a Lender with a Revolving Commitment hereunder. Any increase in the Total
Revolving Commitment may be made in an amount that is less than the increase requested by the Borrower if the Borrower is unable to arrange for, or chooses not to arrange for, Augmenting Lenders. 
 Each of the parties hereto agrees that the Administrative Agent may take any and all actions as may be reasonably necessary to ensure that after giving
effect to any increase in the Total Revolving Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.02, the outstanding Revolving Loans (if any) are held by the Lenders with Revolving Commitments in accordance with their new Revolving Facility Percentages.
This may be accomplished at the discretion of the Administrative Agent: (w) by requiring the outstanding Loans to be prepaid with the proceeds of new Borrowings; (x) by causing the Non-Increasing Lenders to assign portions of their
outstanding Loans to Increasing Lenders and Augmenting Lenders; (y) by permitting the Borrowings outstanding at the time of any increase in the Total Revolving Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.02(b) to remain outstanding until the
last days of the respective Interest Periods therefor, even though the Lenders would hold such Borrowings other than in accordance with their new Revolving Facility Percentages; or (z) by any combination of the foregoing. Any prepayment or
assignment described in this paragraph (b) shall be subject to Section 3.02, but otherwise without premium or penalty. 
 Section 2.03 Competitive Bid Loans. 
 (a) Generally. Each Lender severally agrees that the Borrower may make
Competitive Bid Borrowings under this Section 2.03 from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date until the date occurring 30 days prior to the Revolving Facility Termination Date in the manner set forth below;
provided that Borrower shall not be permitted to request any Competitive Bid Borrowing (and no Lender shall be required to make any Competitive Bid Loan) if after giving effect thereto the sum of (1) the Aggregate Revolving Facility
Exposure, (2) the outstanding principal amount of Swing Loans, and (3) the outstanding principal amount of Competitive Bid Loans, would exceed the Total Revolving Commitment. 
 (b) Requests for Competitive Bid Borrowings. The Borrower may request a Competitive Bid Borrowing under this Section 2.03 by delivering to
the Administrative Agent a written notice of such request substantially in the form of Exhibit B-2 (each such notice, a “Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing”), specifying therein the requested (a) date of such proposed
Competitive Bid Borrowing, (b) aggregate amount of such proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing, (c) interest rate basis and day count convention to be offered by the Lenders, (d) currency of such proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing,
(e) in the case of a Competitive Bid Borrowing consisting of Fixed Rate Loans, the initial Interest Period, or in the case of a Competitive Bid Borrowing consisting of Competitive Bid Fixed Rate Loans, the maturity date for repayment of each
Competitive Bid Fixed Rate Loan to be made as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing (which maturity date may not be earlier than the date occurring seven days after the date of such Competitive Bid Borrowing or later than the earlier of
(A) 180 days after the date of such Competitive Bid Borrowing and (B) the Revolving Facility Termination Date), (f) interest payment date or dates relating thereto, (g) location of the Borrower’s account to which funds are
to be advanced and (h) other terms (if any) to be applicable to such Competitive Bid Borrowing, not later than (i) 1:00 

  

 26 

 
P.M. (local time at its Notice Office) at least two Business Days prior to the date of the proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing, if the Borrower shall specify
in the Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing that the rates of interest to be offered by the Lenders shall be fixed rates per annum (the Competitive Bid Loans comprising any such Competitive Bid Borrowing being referred to herein as
“Competitive Bid Fixed Rate Loans”) and that the Competitive Bid Loans comprising such proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing shall be denominated in Dollars, and (ii) 1:00 P.M. (local time at its Notice Office) at least four
Business Days prior to the date of the proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing, if the Borrower shall specify in the Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing that the Competitive Bid Loans comprising such Competitive Bid Borrowing shall be Eurodollar Loans or
Competitive Bid Fixed Rate Loans denominated in any Foreign Currency. Each Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of each request for a
Competitive Bid Borrowing received by it from the Borrower by sending such Lender a copy of the related Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing. 
 (c) Offers to Make Competitive Bid Loans. Upon the Borrower’s request in accordance with subpart (b) above, each Lender may, if, in its sole discretion, it elects to do so, irrevocably offer to make one or more Competitive
Bid Loans to the Borrower at a rate or rates of interest specified by such Lender in its sole discretion, by notifying the Administrative Agent, (i) before 11:00 A.M. (local time at its Notice Office) on the date of such proposed Competitive
Bid Borrowing, in the case of a Competitive Bid Borrowing consisting of Competitive Bid Fixed Rate Loans denominated in Dollars, and (ii) before 11:00 A.M. (local time at its Notice Office) three Business Days before the date of such proposed
Competitive Bid Borrowing, in the case of a Competitive Bid Borrowing consisting of Eurodollar Loans or Competitive Bid Fixed Rate Loans denominated in any Foreign Currency, of the minimum amount and maximum amount of each Competitive Bid Loan which
such Lender would be willing to make as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing (which amounts or the Dollar Equivalent thereof may, subject to the proviso to the first sentence of Section 2.03(a), exceed such Lender’s Commitment, if any),
the rate or rates of interest therefor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender shall make an offer to make any Competitive Bid Loan pursuant to this Section if the making of such Competitive Bid Loan would result in an obligation by the Borrower
to reimburse or otherwise compensate such Lender for any withholding or other tax pursuant to Section 3.03 or otherwise reimburse, compensate or indemnify such Lender for any increased costs pursuant to Section 3.01 or otherwise. If any
Lender shall elect not to make such an offer, such Lender shall so notify the Administrative Agent before 10:00 A.M. (local time at its Notice Office) on the date on which notice of such election is to be given to the Administrative Agent by the
other Lenders, and such Lender shall not be obligated to, and shall not, make any Competitive Bid Loan as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing; provided that the failure by any Lender to give such notice shall not cause such Lender to be
obligated to make any Competitive Bid Loan as part of such proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing. 
 (d) Acceptance or Cancellation of
Competitive Bid Loan. 
 (i) The Borrower shall, (A) before 1:00 P.M. (local time at its Notice Office) on the date
of such proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing, in the case of a Competitive Bid Borrowing consisting of Competitive Bid Fixed Rate Loans denominated in Dollars, and (B) before 1:00 P.M. (local time at its Notice Office) three Business Days before
the date of such proposed Competitive Bid Borrowing, in the case of a Competitive Bid Borrowing consisting of Eurodollar Loans or Competitive Bid Fixed Rate Loans denominated in any Foreign Currency, either: 
 (1) cancel such Competitive Bid Borrowing by giving the Administrative Agent notice to that effect, or 
  

 27 

 (2) accept one or more of the offers made by any Lender or Lenders pursuant to subpart
(c) above, in its sole discretion, by giving notice to the Administrative Agent of the amount of each Competitive Bid Advance (which amount shall be equal to or greater than the minimum amount, and equal to or less than the maximum amount,
notified to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent on behalf of such Lender for such Competitive Bid Loan pursuant to subpart (c) above) to be made by each Lender as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing, and reject any remaining offers made
by Lenders pursuant to subpart (c) above by giving the Administrative Agent notice to that effect. The Borrower shall accept the offers made by any Lender or Lenders to make Competitive Bid Loans in order of the lowest to the highest rates of
interest offered by such Lenders. If two or more Lenders have offered the same interest rate, the amount to be borrowed at such interest rate will be allocated among such Lenders in proportion to the amount that each such Lender offered at such
interest rate. 
 (ii) If the Borrower proposing the Competitive Bid Borrowing notifies the Administrative Agent that such
Competitive Bid Borrowing is cancelled pursuant to subpart (d)(i)(1) above, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders and such Competitive Bid Borrowing shall not be made. 
 (iii) If the Borrower accepts one or more of the offers made by any Lender or Lenders pursuant to (d)(i)(2) above, the Administrative
Agent shall promptly notify (A) each Lender that has made an offer to make a Competitive Bid Loan, of the date and aggregate amount of such Competitive Bid Borrowing and whether or not any such offer or offers made by such Lender have been
accepted by the Borrower, (B) each Lender that is to make a Competitive Bid Loan as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing, of the amount of each Competitive Bid Loan to be made by such Lender as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing, and
(C) each Lender that is to make a Competitive Bid Loan as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing, upon receipt, that the Administrative Agent has received forms of documents appearing to fulfill the applicable conditions set forth in Article
IV. 
 (iv) If the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent that it accepts one or more of the offers made by any Lender or
Lenders to make a Competitive Bid Loan, such notice of acceptance shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender as a result of any failure to
fulfill on or before the date specified in the related Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing for such Competitive Bid Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth in Article IV, including, without limitation, any loss, cost or expense incurred by
reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund the Competitive Bid Loan to be made by such Lender as part of such Competitive Bid Borrowing when such Competitive Bid Loan, as a result of such
failure, is not made on such date. 
 Section 2.04 Swing Line Facility. 
 (a) Swing Loans. During the Revolving Facility Availability Period, the Swing Line Lender agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth in this
Agreement, to make a Swing Loan or Swing Loans to the Borrower from time to time, which Swing Loans (i) shall be payable on the Swing Loan Maturity Date applicable to each such Swing Loan; (ii) shall be made only in U.S. Dollars;
(iii) may be repaid or prepaid and reborrowed in accordance with the provisions hereof; (iv) may only be made if after giving effect thereto (A) the aggregate principal amount of Swing Loans outstanding does not exceed the Swing Line
Commitment, and (B) the sum of (1) the Aggregate Revolving Facility Exposure, (2) the outstanding principal amount of Swing Loans, and (3) the outstanding principal amount of Competitive Bid Loans, 

  

 28 

 
would exceed the Total Revolving Commitment; (v) shall not be made if, after giving effect thereto, the Borrower would be required to prepay Loans or
cash collateralize Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.13(b); and (vi) shall not be made if the proceeds thereof would be used to repay, in whole or in part, any outstanding Swing Loan. 
 (b) Swing Loan Refunding. The Swing Line Lender may at any time, in its sole and absolute discretion, direct that the Swing Loans owing to it be
refunded by delivering a notice to such effect to the Administrative Agent, specifying the aggregate principal amount thereof (a “Notice of Swing Loan Refunding”). Promptly upon receipt of a Notice of Swing Loan Refunding, the
Administrative Agent shall give notice of the contents thereof to the Lenders with Revolving Commitments and, unless an Event of Default specified in Section 8.01(h) in respect of the Borrower has occurred, the Borrower. Each such Notice of
Swing Loan Refunding shall be deemed to constitute delivery by the Borrower of a Notice of Borrowing requesting Revolving Loans consisting of Base Rate Loans in the amount of the Swing Loans to which it relates. Each Lender with a Revolving
Commitment (including the Swing Line Lender) hereby unconditionally agrees (notwithstanding that any of the conditions specified in Section 4.02 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall not have been satisfied, but subject to the provisions of
paragraph (d) below) to make a Revolving Loan to the Borrower in the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage of the aggregate amount of the Swing Loans to which such Notice of Swing Loan Refunding relates. Each such Lender
shall make the amount of such Revolving Loan available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Payment Office not later than 1:00 P.M. (local time at the Payment Office), if such notice is received by such Lender prior to
11:00 A.M. (local time at its Domestic Lending Office), or not later than 1:00 P.M. (local time at the Payment Office) on the next Business Day, if such notice is received by such Lender after such time. The proceeds of such Revolving Loans shall be
made immediately available to the Swing Line Lender and applied by it to repay the principal amount of the Swing Loans to which such Notice of Swing Loan Refunding relates. 
 (c) Swing Loan Participation. If prior to the time a Revolving Loan would otherwise have been made as provided above as a consequence of a Notice
of Swing Loan Refunding, any of the events specified in Section 8.0l(h) shall have occurred in respect of the Borrower or one or more of the Lenders with Revolving Commitments shall determine that it is legally prohibited from making a
Revolving Loan under such circumstances, each Lender (other than the Swing Line Lender), or each Lender (other than such Swing Line Lender) so prohibited, as the case may be, shall, on the date such Revolving Loan would have been made by it (the
“Purchase Date”), purchase an undivided participating interest (a “Swing Loan Participation”) in the outstanding Swing Loans to which such Notice of Swing Loan Refunding relates, in an amount (the “Swing
Loan Participation Amount”) equal to such Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage of such outstanding Swing Loans. On the Purchase Date, each such Lender or each such Lender so prohibited, as the case may be, shall pay to the Swing Line
Lender, in immediately available funds, such Lender’s Swing Loan Participation Amount, and promptly upon receipt thereof the Swing Line Lender shall, if requested by such other Lender, deliver to such Lender a participation certificate, dated
the date of the Swing Line Lender’s receipt of the funds from, and evidencing such Lender’s Swing Loan Participation in, such Swing Loans and its Swing Loan Participation Amount in respect thereof. If any amount required to be paid by a
Lender to the Swing Line Lender pursuant to the above provisions in respect of any Swing Loan Participation is not paid on the date such payment is due, such Lender shall pay to the Swing Line Lender on demand interest on the amount not so paid at
the overnight Federal Funds Effective Rate from the due date until such amount is paid in full. Whenever, at any time after the Swing Line Lender has received from any other Lender such Lender’s Swing Loan Participation Amount, the Swing Line
Lender receives any payment from or on behalf of the Borrower on account of the related Swing Loans, the Swing Line Lender will promptly distribute to such Lender its ratable share of such amount based on its Revolving Facility Percentage of such
amount on such date on account of its Swing Loan Participation (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s participating interest was outstanding and funded);
provided, however, that if 

  

 29 

 
such payment received by the Swing Line Lender is required to be returned, such Lender will return to the Swing Line Lender any portion thereof previously
distributed to it by the Swing Line Lender. 
 (d) Obligations Unconditional. Each Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans
pursuant to Section 2.04(b) and/or to purchase Swing Loan Participations in connection with a Notice of Swing Loan Refunding shall be subject to the conditions that (i) such Lender shall have received a Notice of Swing Loan Refunding
complying with the provisions hereof and (ii) at the time the Swing Loans that are the subject of such Notice of Swing Loan Refunding were made, the Swing Line Lender making the same had no actual written notice from another Lender that an
Event of Default had occurred and was continuing, but otherwise shall be absolute and unconditional, shall be solely for the benefit of the Swing Line Lender that gives such Notice of Swing Loan Refunding, and shall not be affected by any
circumstance, including, without limitation, (A) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Lender may have against any other Lender, any Credit Party, or any other Person, or any Credit Party may have against any
Lender or other Person, as the case may be, for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or Event of Default; (C) any event or circumstance involving a Material Adverse Effect; (D) any breach of any Loan
Document by any party thereto; or (E) any other circumstance, happening or event, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. 
 Section 2.05 Letters of Credit. 
 (a) LC Issuances. During the Revolving Facility Availability Period, the
Borrower may request an LC Issuer at any time and from time to time to issue, for the account of the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor, and subject to and upon the terms and conditions herein set forth, each LC Issuer agrees to issue from time to
time Letters of Credit denominated and payable in Dollars or any Designated Foreign Currency and in each case in such form as may be approved by such LC Issuer and the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that notwithstanding the
foregoing, no LC Issuance shall be made if, after giving effect thereto, (i) the LC Outstandings would exceed the LC Commitment Amount, (ii) the Revolving Facility Exposure of any Lender would exceed such Lender’s Revolving
Commitment, (iii) the sum of (A) the Aggregate Revolving Facility Exposure, (B) the outstanding principal amount of Swing Loans, and (C) the outstanding principal amount of Competitive Bid Loans, would exceed the Total Revolving
Commitment, or (iv) the Borrower would be required to prepay Loans or cash collateralize Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.13(b). Subject to Section 2.05(c) below, each Letter of Credit shall have an expiry date (including any
renewal periods) occurring not later than the earlier of (y) one year from the date of issuance thereof, or (z) 30 Business Days prior to the Revolving Facility Termination Date. 
 (b) LC Requests. Whenever the Borrower desires that a Letter of Credit be issued for its account or the account of any eligible LC Obligor, the
Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent and the applicable LC Issuer written or telephonic notice (in the case of telephonic notice, promptly confirmed in writing if so requested by the Administrative Agent) which, if in the form of written
notice, shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit B-4 (each such request, a “LC Request”), or transmit by electronic communication (if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the applicable LC Issuer), prior to
11:00 A.M. (local time at the Notice Office) at least three Business Days (or such shorter period as may be reasonably acceptable to the relevant LC Issuer) prior to the proposed date of issuance (which shall be a Business Day), which LC Request
shall include such supporting documents that such LC Issuer customarily requires in connection therewith (including, in the case of a Letter of Credit for an account party other than the Borrower, an application for, and if applicable a
reimbursement agreement with respect to, such Letter of Credit). In the event of any inconsistency between any of the terms or provisions of any LC Document and the terms and provisions of this Agreement respecting Letters of Credit, the terms and
provisions of this Agreement shall control. 
  

 30 

 (c) Auto-Renewal Letters of Credit. If an LC Obligor so requests in any applicable LC Request,
each LC Issuer shall agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic renewal provisions; provided, however, that any Letter of Credit that has automatic renewal provisions must permit such LC Issuer to prevent any such renewal at
least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter
of Credit is issued. Once any such Letter of Credit that has automatic renewal provisions has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) such LC Issuer to permit the renewal of such Letter of Credit at any time
to an expiry date not later than 30 Business Days prior to the Revolving Facility Termination Date; provided, however, that such LC Issuer shall not permit any such renewal if (i) such LC Issuer has determined that it would have
no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its renewed form under the terms hereof, or (ii) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is two Business Days before the date that
such LC Issuer is permitted to send a notice of non-renewal from the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.02 is not then satisfied. 
 (d) Applicability of ISP98 and UCP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the applicable LC Issuer and the applicable LC Obligor, when a Letter of
Credit is issued, (i) the rules of the “International Standby Practices 1998” published by the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice (or such later version thereof as may be in effect at the time of issuance)
shall apply to each Standby Letter of Credit, and (ii) the rules of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, as most recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce at the time of issuance (including the
International Chamber of Commerce’s decision published by the Commission on Banking Technique and Practice on April 6, 1998 regarding the European single currency (euro)) shall apply to each Commercial Letter of Credit. 
 (e) Notice of LC Issuance. Each LC Issuer shall, on the date of each LC Issuance by it, give the Administrative Agent, each applicable Lender and
the Borrower written notice of such LC Issuance, accompanied by a copy to the Administrative Agent of the Letter of Credit or Letters of Credit issued by it. Each LC Issuer shall provide to the Administrative Agent a quarterly (or monthly if
requested by any applicable Lender) summary describing each Letter of Credit issued by such LC Issuer and then outstanding and an identification for the relevant period of the daily aggregate LC Outstandings represented by Letters of Credit issued
by such LC Issuer. 
 (f) Reimbursement Obligations. 
 (i) The Borrower hereby agrees to reimburse (or cause any LC Obligor for whose account a Letter of Credit was issued to reimburse) each LC
Issuer, by making payment directly to such LC Issuer in immediately available funds at the payment office of such LC Issuer, for any Unreimbursed Drawing with respect to any Letter of Credit immediately after, and in any event on the date on which,
such LC Issuer notifies the Borrower (or any such other LC Obligor for whose account such Letter of Credit was issued) of such payment or disbursement (which notice to the Borrower (or such other LC Obligor) shall be delivered reasonably promptly
after any such payment or disbursement), such payment to be made in Dollars or in the applicable Designated Foreign Currency in which such Letter of Credit is denominated, with interest on the amount so paid or disbursed by such LC Issuer. The
Borrower will be deemed to have given a Notice of Borrowing for Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans in an aggregate Dollar Equivalent principal amount sufficient to reimburse such Unreimbursed Drawing (and the Administrative Agent shall
promptly give notice to the Lenders of such deemed Notice of Borrowing), the Lenders shall, unless they are legally prohibited from doing so, make the Revolving Loans contemplated by such deemed Notice of Borrowing (which Revolving Loans shall be
considered 

  

 31 

 
made under Section 2.02), and the proceeds of such Revolving Loans shall be disbursed directly to the applicable LC Issuer to the extent necessary to
effect such reimbursement and repayment of the Unreimbursed Drawing, with any excess proceeds to be made available to the Borrower in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement. To the extent such Unreimbursed Drawing is not
reimbursed prior to 1:00 P.M. (local time at the payment office of the applicable LC Issuer) on the date of such payment or disbursement, interest on such Unreimbursed Drawing shall accrue, from and including the date paid or disbursed to but not
including the date such LC Issuer is reimbursed therefor at a rate per annum that shall be the rate then applicable to Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.09(a)(i) that are Base Rate Loans or, if not reimbursed on the date of such payment or
disbursement because the Aggregate Revolving Facility Exposure exceeds the Revolving Commitment, then at the Default Rate, any such interest also to be payable on demand. 
 (ii) Obligations Absolute. Each LC Obligor’s obligation under this Section to reimburse each LC Issuer with respect to
Unreimbursed Drawings (including, in each case, interest thereon) shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment that such LC Obligor may have or have had
against such LC Issuer, the Administrative Agent or any Lender, including, without limitation, any defense based upon the failure of any drawing under a Letter of Credit to conform to the terms of the Letter of Credit or any non-application or
misapplication by the beneficiary of the proceeds of such drawing; provided, however, that no LC Obligor shall be obligated to reimburse an LC Issuer for any wrongful payment made by such LC Issuer under a Letter of Credit as a result
of acts or omissions constituting willful misconduct or gross negligence on the part of such LC Issuer. 
 (g) LC Participations.

 (i) Immediately upon each LC Issuance, the LC Issuer of such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to have sold and transferred
to each Lender with a Revolving Commitment, and each such Lender (each an “LC Participant”) shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally to have purchased and received from such LC Issuer, without recourse or warranty, an
undivided interest and participation (an “LC Participation”), to the extent of such Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage of the Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit in effect at such time of issuance, in such Letter of
Credit, each substitute Letter of Credit, each drawing made thereunder, the obligations of any LC Obligor under this Agreement with respect thereto (although LC Fees relating thereto shall be payable directly to the Administrative Agent for the
account of the Lenders as provided in Section 2.11 and the LC Participants shall have no right to receive any portion of any fees of the nature contemplated by Section 2.1l(c), (d) or (e)), the obligations of any LC Obligor under any
LC Documents pertaining thereto, and any security for, or guaranty pertaining to, any of the foregoing. 
 (ii) In determining
whether to pay under any Letter of Credit, an LC Issuer shall not have any obligation relative to the LC Participants other than to determine that any documents required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit have been delivered and that they
appear to comply on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit. Any action taken or omitted to be taken by an LC Issuer under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or
willful misconduct, shall not create for such LC Issuer any resulting liability. 
 (iii) If an LC Issuer makes any payment
under any Letter of Credit and the applicable LC Obligor shall not have reimbursed such amount in full to such LC Issuer pursuant to 

  

 32 

 
Section 2.05(f), such LC Issuer shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each LC Participant
of such failure, and each LC Participant shall promptly and unconditionally pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such LC Issuer, the amount of such LC Participant’s Revolving Facility Percentage of such payment in Dollars or in
the applicable Designated Foreign Currency in which such Letter of Credit is denominated and in same-day funds; provided, however, that no LC Participant shall be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent its Revolving Facility
Percentage of such unreimbursed amount for any wrongful payment made by such LC Issuer under a Letter of Credit as a result of acts or omissions constituting willful misconduct or gross negligence on the part of such LC Issuer. If the Administrative
Agent so notifies any LC Participant required to fund a payment under a Letter of Credit prior to 11:00 A.M. (local time at its Notice Office) on any Business Day, such LC Participant shall make available to the Administrative Agent for the account
of the relevant LC Issuer such LC Participant’s Revolving Facility Percentage of the amount of such payment on such Business Day in same-day funds. If and to the extent such LC Participant shall not have so made its Revolving Facility
Percentage of the amount of such payment available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant LC Issuer, such LC Participant agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such LC Issuer, forthwith on demand, such
amount, together with interest thereon, for each day from such date until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of such LC Issuer at the Federal Funds Effective Rate. The failure of any LC Participant to make
available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant LC Issuer its Revolving Facility Percentage of any payment under any Letter of Credit shall not relieve any other LC Participant of its obligation hereunder to make available to
the Administrative Agent for the account of such LC Issuer its Revolving Facility Percentage of any payment under any Letter of Credit on the date required, as specified above, but no LC Participant shall be responsible for the failure of any other
LC Participant to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such LC Issuer such other LC Participant’s Revolving Facility Percentage of any such payment. 
 (iv) Whenever an LC Issuer receives a payment of a reimbursement obligation as to which the Administrative Agent has received for the
account of such LC Issuer any payments from the LC Participants pursuant to subpart (iii) above, such LC Issuer shall pay to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to each LC Participant that has paid its
Revolving Facility Percentage thereof, in same-day funds, an amount equal to such LC Participant’s Revolving Facility Percentage of the principal amount thereof and interest thereon accruing after the purchase of the respective LC
Participations, as and to the extent so received. 
 (v) The obligations of the LC Participants to make payments to the
Administrative Agent for the account of each LC Issuer with respect to Letters of Credit shall be irrevocable and not subject to counterclaim, set-off or other defense or any other qualification or exception whatsoever and shall be made in
accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement under all circumstances, including, without limitation, any of the following circumstances: 
 (A) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents; 
 (B) the existence of any claim, set-off defense or other right that any LC Obligor may have at any time against a beneficiary named in a Letter of Credit, any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such transferee
may be acting), the Administrative Agent, any LC Issuer, any Lender, or other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated 

  

 33 

 
herein or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transaction between the applicable LC Obligor and the beneficiary named in any such Letter of
Credit), other than any claim that the applicable LC Obligor may have against any applicable LC Issuer for gross negligence or willful misconduct of such LC Issuer in making payment under any applicable Letter of Credit; 
 (C) any draft, certificate or other document presented under the 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; 
 (D) the surrender or
impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms of any of the Loan Documents; or 
 (E) the
occurrence of any Default or Event of Default. 
 (vi) To the extent any LC Issuer is not indemnified by the Borrower or any
LC Obligor, the LC Participants will reimburse and indemnify such LC Issuer, in proportion to their respective Revolving Facility Percentages, for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions,
judgments, costs, expenses or disbursements of whatsoever kind or nature that may be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by such LC Issuer in performing its respective duties in any way related to or arising out of LC Issuances by it;
provided, however, that no LC Participants shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such LC Issuer’s gross
negligence or willful misconduct. 
 Section 2.06 Notice of Borrowing. 
 (a) Time of Notice. Each Borrowing of a Loan (other than a Continuation or Conversion) shall be made upon notice in the form provided for below
which shall be provided by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent at its Notice Office not later than (i) in the case of each Borrowing of a Fixed Rate Loan, 1:00 P.M. (local time at its Notice Office) at least three Business Days’ prior
to the date of such Borrowing, (ii) in the case of each Borrowing of a Base Rate Loan, prior to 1:00 P.M. (local time at its Notice Office) on the proposed date of such Borrowing, and (iii) in the case of any Borrowing under the Swing Line
Facility, prior to 1:00 P.M. (local time at its Notice Office) on the proposed date of such Borrowing. 
 (b) Notice of Borrowing.
Each request for a Borrowing (other than a Competitive Bid Borrowing or a Continuation or Conversion) shall be made by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower by delivering written notice of such request substantially in the form of Exhibit B-l
(each such notice, a “Notice of Borrowing”) or by telephone (to be confirmed immediately in writing by delivery by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower of a Notice of Borrowing), and in any event each such request shall be
irrevocable and shall specify (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Loans to be made pursuant to such Borrowing, (ii) the date of the Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), (iii) the Type of Loans such Borrowing will consist
of, and (iv) if applicable, the initial Interest Period, the Swing Loan Maturity Date (which shall be less than 30 days) and Designated Foreign Currency applicable thereto. Without in any way limiting the obligation of the Borrower to confirm
in writing any telephonic notice permitted to be given hereunder, the Administrative Agent may act prior to receipt of written confirmation without liability upon the basis of such telephonic notice believed by the Administrative Agent in good faith
to be from an Authorized Officer of the Borrower entitled to give telephonic notices under this Agreement on behalf of the Borrower. In each such case, the Administrative Agent’s record of the terms of such telephonic notice shall be conclusive
absent manifest error. 
  

 34 

 (c) Minimum Borrowing Amount. The aggregate principal amount of each Borrowing by the Borrower
shall not be less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount. 
 (d) Maximum Borrowings. More than one Borrowing may be incurred by the
Borrower on any day; provided, however, that (i) if there are two or more Borrowings on a single day by the Borrower that consist of Fixed Rate Loans, each such Borrowing shall have a different initial Interest Period, (ii) at no
time shall there be more than seven Borrowings of Fixed Rate Loans outstanding hereunder, (iii) at no time shall there be more than two Borrowings of Swing Loans outstanding hereunder, and (iv) at no time shall there be more than 10
Borrowings outstanding hereunder. 
 Section 2.07 Funding Obligations; Disbursement of Funds. 
 (a) Several Nature of Funding Obligations. The Commitments of each Lender hereunder and the obligation of each Lender to make Loans, acquire and
fund Swing Loan Participations, and LC Participations, as the case may be, are several and not joint obligations. No Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in its obligation to make Loans or fund any participation hereunder
and each Lender shall be obligated to make the Loans provided to be made by it and fund its participations required to be funded by it hereunder, regardless of the failure of any other Lender to fulfill any of its Commitments hereunder. Nothing
herein and no subsequent termination of the Commitments pursuant to Section 2.12 shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its commitments hereunder and in existence from time to time or to prejudice any rights that
the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder. 
 (b) Borrowings Pro Rata.
Except with respect to the making of Swing Loans by the Swing Line Lender and the making of Competitive Bid Loans, all Loans hereunder shall be made and LC Participations acquired by each Lender on a pro rata basis based upon each
Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage of the amount of such Revolving Borrowing or Letter of Credit in effect on the date the applicable Revolving Borrowing is to be made or the Letter of Credit is to be issued. 
 (c) Notice to Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall promptly give each Lender, as applicable, written notice (or telephonic notice promptly
confirmed in writing) of each proposed Borrowing, or Conversion or Continuation thereof, and LC Issuance, and of such Lender’s proportionate share thereof or participation therein and of the other matters covered by the Notice of Borrowing,
Notice of Continuation or Conversion, or LC Request, as the case may be, relating thereto. 
 (d) Funding of Loans. 
 (i) Loans Generally. No later than 1:00 P.M. (local time at the Payment Office) on the date specified in each Notice of Borrowing
or Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing, each Lender (or, in the case of any such Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing, each Lender selected by the Borrower to make a Competitive Bid Loan, which has agreed to make such Loan in accordance with
Section 2.03) will make available its amount, if any, of each Borrowing requested to be made on such date to the Administrative Agent at the Payment Office in Dollars or the applicable Designated Foreign Currency and in immediately available
funds and the Administrative Agent promptly will make available to the Borrower by depositing to its account at the Payment Office (or such other account as the Borrower shall specify) the aggregate of the amounts so made available in the type of
funds received. 
 (ii) Swing Loans. No later than 1:00 P.M. (local time at the Payment Office) on the date specified
in each Notice of Borrowing, the Swing Line Lender will make available to the 

  

 35 

 
Borrower by depositing to its account at the Payment Office (or such other account as the Borrower shall specify) the aggregate of Swing Loans requested in
such Notice of Borrowing. 
 (e) Advance Funding. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the
date of Borrowing that such Lender does not intend to make available to the Administrative Agent its portion of the Borrowing or Borrowings to be made on such date, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available
to the Administrative Agent on such date of Borrowing, and the Administrative Agent, in reliance upon such assumption, may (in its sole discretion and without any obligation to do so) make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such
corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender and the Administrative Agent has made the same available to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount
from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower, and the Borrower shall immediately pay such
corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover from such Lender or the Borrower, as the case may be, interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such
corresponding amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent at a rate per annum equal to (i) if paid by such Lender, the overnight Federal
Funds Effective Rate or (ii) if paid by the Borrower, the then applicable rate of interest, calculated in accordance with Section 2.09, for the respective Loans (but without any requirement to pay any amounts in respect thereof pursuant to
Section 3.02). 
 Section 2.08 Evidence of Obligations. 
 (a) Loan Accounts of Lenders. Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the Obligations
of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. 
 (b) Loan Accounts of Administrative Agent; Lender Register. The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the
amount of each Loan and Borrowing made hereunder, the Type thereof, the currency in which such Loan is denominated, the Interest Period and applicable interest rate and, in the case of a Swing Loan, the Swing Loan Maturity Date applicable thereto,
(ii) the amount and other details with respect to each Letter of Credit issued hereunder, (iii) the amount of any principal due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder, (iv) the amount of
any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof, and (v) the other details relating to the Loans, Letters of Credit and other Obligations. In addition, the
Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Borrower, shall maintain a register (the “Lender Register”) on or in which it will record the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments, and principal amount of the Loans owing to
each of the Lenders pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time. Notwithstanding notice to the contrary, each Person whose name is recorded in the Lender Register pursuant to the terms hereof shall be treated as a Lender for all purposes
hereunder. The Administrative Agent will make the Lender Register available to any Lender or the Borrower upon its request. 
 (c) Effect
of Loan Accounts, etc. The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to Section 2.08(b) shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the Obligations recorded therein; provided, that the failure of the
Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error (other than manifest error) therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of any Credit Party to repay or prepay the Loans or the other Obligations in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement. 
  

 36 

 (d) Notes. Upon request of any Lender or the Swing Line Lender, the Borrower will execute and
deliver to such Lender or the Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, (i) a Revolving Facility Note with blanks appropriately completed in conformity herewith to evidence the Borrower’s obligation to pay the principal of, and interest on,
the Revolving Loans made to it by such Lender, and (ii) a Swing Line Note with blanks appropriately completed in conformity herewith to evidence the Borrower’s obligation to pay the principal of, and interest on, the Swing Loans made to it
by the Swing Line Lender; provided, however, that the decision of any Lender or the Swing Line Lender to not request a Note shall in no way detract from the Borrower’s obligation to repay the Loans and other amounts owing by the Borrower
to such Lender or the Swing Line Lender. The indebtedness of the Borrower resulting from each Competitive Bid Loan shall be evidenced by a separate Competitive Bid Note of the Borrower payable to the order of the Lender making such Competitive Bid
Loan. 
 Section 2.09 Interest; Default Rate. 
 (a) Interest on Revolving Loans. The outstanding principal amount of each Revolving Loan made by each Lender shall bear interest at a fluctuating rate per annum that shall at all times be equal to
(i) during such periods as such Revolving Loan is a Base Rate Loan, the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time, (ii) during such periods as such Revolving Loan is a Eurodollar Loan, the relevant Adjusted
Eurodollar Rate for such Eurodollar Loan for the applicable Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time, and (iii) during such periods as a Revolving Loan is a Foreign Currency Loan, the relevant Adjusted
Foreign Currency Rate for such Foreign Currency Loan for the applicable Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time. 
 (b) Interest on Competitive Bid Loans. The outstanding principal amount of each Competitive Bid Loan shall bear interest from the date on which such Competitive Bid Loan was made to the date on which the
principal amount of such Competitive Bid Loan is repaid in full, at the rate of interest for such Competitive Bid Loan specified by the Lender making such Competitive Bid Loan in its notice with respect thereto delivered pursuant to
Section 2.03(a), payable on the interest payment date or dates specified by the Borrower for such Competitive Bid Loan in the related Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing, as provided in the Competitive Bid Note evidencing such Competitive Bid
Loan. 
 (c) Interest on Swing Loans. The outstanding principal amount of each Swing Loan shall bear interest from the date of the
Borrowing at a rate per annum that shall be equal to the Quoted Rate applicable thereto. Each Swing Loan shall bear interest for a minimum of one day. 
 (d) Default Interest. Notwithstanding the above provisions, if an Event of Default is in existence, upon written notice by the Administrative Agent (which notice the Administrative Agent shall give at the
direction of the Required Lenders), (i) all outstanding amounts of principal and, to the extent permitted by law, all overdue interest, in respect of each Loan shall bear interest, payable on demand, at a rate per annum equal to the Default
Rate, and (ii) the LC Fees shall be increased by an additional 1% per annum in excess of the LC Fees otherwise applicable thereto. In addition, if any amount (other than amounts as to which the foregoing subparts (i) and (ii) are
applicable) payable by the Borrower under the Loan Documents is not paid when due, upon written notice by the Administrative Agent (which notice the Administrative Agent shall give at the direction of the Required Lenders), such amount shall bear
interest, payable on demand, at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate. 
 (e) Accrual and Payment of Interest. Interest shall
accrue from and including the date of any Borrowing to but excluding the date of any prepayment or repayment thereof and shall be payable by the Borrower as follows: (i) in respect of each Base Rate Loan, quarterly in arrears on the last

 37 

 
the dates that are successively three months after the commencement of such Interest Period, (iii) in respect of any Swing Loan, on the Swing Loan
Maturity Date applicable thereto, and (iv) in respect of all other Loans, on (A) the date of any repayment or prepayment (other than a repayment or prepayment of a Revolving Loan that is a Base Rate Loan prior to the Revolving Facility
Termination Date) on the amount repaid or prepaid, (B) the date of any Conversion on the amount Converted, and (C) the Revolving Facility Termination Date, (v) in respect of any interest not paid when due pursuant to any of the
foregoing subparts, on demand, and (vi) in respect of any interest payable pursuant to Section 2.09(c), on demand. 
 (f)
Computations of Interest. All computations of interest on Fixed Rate Loans and Swing Loans hereunder shall be made on the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days. All computations of interest on Base Rate Loans and Unreimbursed
Drawings hereunder shall be made on the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all computations of interest in respect of Competitive Bid Loans shall be made as specified in the
applicable Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing. 
 (g) Information as to Interest Rates. The Administrative Agent, upon determining
the interest rate for any Borrowing, shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders thereof. Any changes in the Applicable Margin shall be determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions set forth in the definition of
“Applicable Margin” and the Administrative Agent will promptly provide notice of such determinations to the Borrower and the Lenders. Any such determination by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest
error. 
 Section 2.10 Conversion and Continuation of Loans. 
 (a) Conversion and Continuation of Revolving Loans. The Borrower shall have the right, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, to
(i) Convert all or a portion of the outstanding principal amount of Loans of one Type made to it into a Borrowing or Borrowings of another Type of Loans that can be made to it pursuant to this Agreement and (ii) Continue a Borrowing of
Eurodollar Loans or Foreign Currency Loans, as the case may be, at the end of the applicable Interest Period as a new Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans or Foreign Currency Loans (in the same Designated Foreign Currency as the original Foreign Currency
Loan) with a new Interest Period; provided, however, that (A) no Foreign Currency Loan may be Converted into a Base Rate Loan, Eurodollar Loan or a Foreign Currency Loan that is denominated in a different Designated Foreign Currency, and
(B) any Conversion of Eurodollar Loans into Base Rate Loans shall be made on, and only on, the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurodollar Loans. 
 (b) Notice of Continuation and Conversion. Each Continuation or Conversion of a Loan shall be made upon notice in the form provided for below provided by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent at its Notice
Office not later than (i) in the case of each Continuation of or Conversion into a Fixed Rate Loan, prior to 1:00 P.M. (local time at its Notice Office) at least three Business Days’ prior to the date of such Continuation or Conversion,
and (ii) in the case of each Conversion to a Base Rate Loan, prior to 1:00 P.M. (local time at its Notice Office) on the proposed date of such Conversion. Each such request shall be made by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower delivering
written notice of such request substantially in the form of Exhibit B-3 (each such notice, a “Notice of Continuation or Conversion”) or by telephone (to be confirmed immediately in writing by delivery by an Authorized Officer
of the Borrower of a Notice of Continuation or Conversion), and in any event each such request shall be irrevocable and shall specify (A) the Borrowings to be Continued or Converted, (B) the date of the Continuation or Conversion (which

absent manifest error.

Notice Office (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the Lenders), the Borrower shall have the right to partially and permanently reduce the Unused Total Revolving Commitment; provided, however, that
(i) any such reduction shall apply to proportionately (based on each Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage) and permanently reduce the Revolving Commitment of each Lender, (ii) such reduction shall apply to proportionately and

 40 

 
Agent at the Notice Office written or telephonic notice (in the case of telephonic notice, promptly confirmed in writing if so requested by the
Administrative Agent) of its intent to prepay the Loans, the amount of such prepayment and (in the case of Fixed Rate Loans) the specific Borrowing(s) pursuant to which the prepayment is to be made, which notice shall be received by the

Business Day prior to the date of such prepayment, in the case of any prepayment of Base Rate Loans, and which notice shall promptly be transmitted by the Administrative Agent to each of the affected Lenders, provided that: 
 (i) each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount of at least (A) in the case of any prepayment of a Fixed Rate
Loan, $1,500,000 (or, if less, the full amount of such Borrowing) or the Dollar Equivalent thereof, or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 or the Dollar Equivalent thereof in excess thereof, (B) in the case of any prepayment of a Base Rate Loan,
$1,500,000 (or, if less, the full amount of such Borrowing) or the Dollar Equivalent thereof, or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 or the Dollar Equivalent thereof in excess thereof, and (C) in the case of any prepayment of a Swing Loan, in
the full amount thereof; and 
 (ii) no partial prepayment of any Loans made pursuant to a Borrowing shall reduce the
aggregate principal amount of such Loans outstanding pursuant to such Borrowing to an amount less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount applicable thereto, 
 (b) Mandatory Payments. The Loans shall be subject to mandatory repayment or prepayment (in the case of any partial prepayment conforming to the requirements as to the amounts of partial prepayments set forth
in Section 2.13(a) above), and the LC Outstandings shall be subject to cash collateralization requirements, in accordance with the following provisions: 
 (i) Maturity. The entire principal amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans shall be repaid in full on the Revolving Facility
Termination Date. The Borrower shall repay each Competitive Bid Loan to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lender that has made such Competitive Bid Loan, on the maturity date applicable to such Competitive Bid Loan, the then unpaid
principal amount of such Competitive Bid Loan. 
 (ii) Loans Exceed the Commitments. If on any date (after giving
effect to any other payments on such date) (A) the Revolving Facility Exposure of any Lender exceeds such Lender’s Revolving Commitment, (B) the sum of (1) the Aggregate Revolving Facility Exposure, (2) the outstanding
principal amount of Swing Loans, and (3) the outstanding principal amount of Competitive Bid Loans, exceeds the Total Revolving Commitment, or (C) the aggregate principal amount of Swing Loans outstanding exceeds the Swing Line Commitment,
then, in the case of each of the foregoing, the Borrower shall, on such day, prepay on such date the principal amount of Loans and, after Loans have been paid in full, Unreimbursed Drawings, in an aggregate amount at least equal to such
excess. 
 (iii) LC Outstandings Exceed LC Commitment If on any date the LC Outstandings exceed the LC Commitment
Amount, then the applicable LC Obligor or the Borrower shall, on such day, pay to the Administrative Agent an amount in cash equal to such excess and the Administrative Agent shall hold such payment as security for the reimbursement
obligations of the applicable LC Obligors hereunder in respect of Letters of Credit pursuant to a cash collateral agreement to be entered into in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, each LC Issuer and the Borrower
(which shall permit certain investments in Cash Equivalents reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, each LC Issuer and the 

  

 41 

 
Borrower until the proceeds are applied to any Unreimbursed Drawing or to any other Obligations in accordance with any such cash collateral agreement and
which shall provide for regular remittance to the Borrower of any interest accrued on such cash collateral amount). 
 (c) Particular
Loans to be Prepaid. With respect to each repayment or prepayment of Loans made or required by this Section, the Borrower shall designate the Types of Loans that are to be repaid or prepaid and the specific Borrowing(s) pursuant to which such
repayment or prepayment is to be made; provided, however, that (i) the Borrower shall first so designate all Loans that are Base Rate Loans and Fixed Rate Loans with Interest Periods ending on the date of repayment or prepayment
prior to designating any other Fixed Rate Loans for repayment or prepayment, and (ii) if the outstanding principal amount of Fixed Rate Loans made pursuant to a Borrowing is reduced below the applicable Minimum Borrowing Amount as a result of
any such repayment or prepayment, then all the Loans outstanding pursuant to such Borrowing shall, in the case of Eurodollar Loans, be Converted into Base Rate Loans and, in the case of Foreign Currency Loans, be repaid in full. In the absence of a
designation by the Borrower as described in the preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent shall, subject to the above, make such designation in its sole discretion with a view, but no obligation, to minimize breakage costs owing under Article
III. 
 (d) Breakage and Other Compensation. Any prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall be accompanied by any
amounts payable in respect thereof under Article III. 
 Section 2.14 Method and Place of Payment. 
 (a) Generally. All payments made by the Borrower hereunder (including any payments made with respect to the Borrower Guaranteed Obligations under
Article X) under any Note or any other Loan Document, shall be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense. 
 (b) Application of
Payments. Except as specifically set forth elsewhere in this Agreement and subject to Section 8.03, (i) all payments and prepayments of Revolving Loans and Unreimbursed Drawings with respect to Letters of Credit shall be applied by the
Administrative Agent on a pro rata basis based upon each Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage of the amount of such prepayment, and (ii) all payments or prepayments of Swing Loans shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to
pay or prepay such Swing Loans. 
 (c) Payment of Obligations. Except as specifically set forth elsewhere in this Agreement, all
payments under this Agreement with respect to any of the Obligations shall be made to the Administrative Agent on the date when due and shall be made at the Payment Office in immediately available funds and, except as set forth in the next sentence,
shall be made in Dollars. With respect to any Foreign Currency Loan, all payments (including prepayments) to any Lender of the principal of or interest on such Foreign Currency Loan shall be made in the same Designated Foreign Currency as the
original Loan and with respect to any Letter of Credit issued in a Designated Foreign Currency, all Unreimbursed Drawings with respect to each such Letter of Credit shall be made in the same Designated Foreign Currency in which each such Letter of
Credit was issued. 
 (d)) Timing of Payments. Any payments under this Agreement that are made later than 11:00 A.M. (local time at
the Payment Office) shall be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next
succeeding Business Day and, with respect to payments of principal, interest shall be payable during such extension at the applicable rate in effect immediately prior to such extension. 
  

 42 

 (e) Distribution to Lenders. Upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt of payments hereunder,
the Administrative Agent shall immediately distribute to each Lender or the applicable LC Issuer, as the case may be, its ratable share, if any, of the amount of principal, interest, and Fees received by it for the account of such Lender. Payments
received by the Administrative Agent in Dollars shall be delivered to the Lenders or the applicable LC Issuer, as the case may be, in Dollars in immediately available funds. Payments received by the Administrative Agent in any Designated Foreign
Currency shall be delivered to the Lenders or the applicable LC Issuer, as the case may be, in such Designated Foreign Currency in same-day funds; provided, however, that if at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the
Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, Unreimbursed Drawings, interest and Fees then due hereunder then, except as specifically set forth elsewhere in this Agreement and subject to Section 8.03, such funds shall be applied,
first, towards payment of interest and Fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and Fees then due to such parties, and second, towards payment of principal and
Unreimbursed Drawings then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and Unreimbursed Drawings then due to such parties. 
 Section 2.15 Guaranty by the Borrower. 
 (a) Borrower Guaranteed Obligations. The Borrower hereby unconditionally guarantees, for the benefit of the Benefited Creditors, all of the following (collectively, the “Borrower Guaranteed Obligations”): all
amounts, indemnities and reimbursement obligations, direct or indirect, contingent or absolute, of every type or description, and at any time existing owing by any Subsidiary of the Borrower under any Designated Hedge Agreement or any other document
or agreement executed and delivered in connection therewith to any Designated Hedge Creditor, in all cases whether now existing or hereafter incurred or arising, including any such interest or other amounts incurred or arising during the pendency of
any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership or similar proceeding, regardless of whether allowed or allowable in such proceeding or subject to an automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code). Upon failure by any
Credit Party to pay punctually any of the Borrower Guaranteed Obligations, the Borrower shall forthwith on demand by the Administrative Agent pay the amount not so paid at the place and in the currency and otherwise in the manner specified in this
Agreement or any other applicable agreement or instrument. 
 (b) Additional Undertaking. As a separate, additional and continuing
obligation, the Borrower unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes and agrees, for the benefit of the Benefited Creditors that, should any Borrower Guaranteed Obligations not be recoverable from the Borrower under Section 2.15(a) for any
reason whatsoever (including, without limitation, by reason of any provision of any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument executed in connection therewith being or becoming void, unenforceable, or otherwise invalid under any applicable
law) then, notwithstanding any notice or knowledge thereof by any Lender, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Affiliates, or any other person, at any time, the Borrower as sole, original and independent obligor, upon demand by the
Administrative Agent, will make payment to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Benefited Creditors, of all such obligations not so recoverable by way of full indemnity, in such currency and otherwise in such manner as is provided in the
Loan Documents or any other applicable agreement or instrument. 
  

 43 

 (c) Guaranty Unconditional. The obligations of the Borrower under this Section 2.15 shall be
unconditional and absolute and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing shall not be released, discharged or otherwise affected by the occurrence, one or more times, of any of the following: 
 (i) any extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, waiver or release in respect to the Borrower Guaranteed Obligations under any
agreement or instrument, by operation of law or otherwise; 
 (ii) any modification or amendment of or supplement to this
Agreement, any Note, any other Loan Document, or any agreement or instrument evidencing or relating to any Borrower Guaranteed Obligation; 
 (iii) any release, non-perfection or invalidity of any direct or indirect security for the Borrower Guaranteed Obligations under any agreement or instrument evidencing or relating to any Borrower Guaranteed
Obligations; 
 (iv) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of any Credit Party or other Subsidiary or
any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting any Credit Party or other Subsidiary or its assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of any Credit Party or other Subsidiary contained in any
agreement or instrument evidencing or relating to any of the Borrower Guaranteed Obligations; 
 (v) the existence of any
claim, set-off or other rights which the Borrower may have at any time against any other Credit Party, the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any Affiliate of any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection herewith or any unrelated
transactions; 
 (vi) any invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against any other Credit Party for any reason of any
agreement or instrument evidencing or relating to any of the Borrower Guaranteed Obligations, or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit the payment by any Credit Party of any of the Borrower Guaranteed Obligations; or

 (vii) any other act or omission of any kind by any other Credit Party, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other
Person or any other circumstance whatsoever which might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.15, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the Borrower’s obligations under this Section other than the irrevocable payment in full of
all Borrower Guaranteed Obligations. 
 (d) Borrower Obligations to Remain in Effect; Restoration. The Borrower’s obligations
under this Section 2.15 shall remain in full force and effect until the Commitments shall have terminated, and the principal of and interest on the Notes and other Borrower Guaranteed Obligations, and all other amounts payable by the Borrower,
any other Credit Party or other Subsidiary, under the Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument evidencing or relating to any of the Borrower Guaranteed Obligations, shall have been paid in full. If at any time any payment of any of the
Borrower Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of such Credit Party, the Borrower’s obligations under this Section 2.15 with respect to such payment
shall be reinstated at such time as though such payment had been due but not made at such time. 
 (e) Waiver of Acceptance, etc. The
Borrower irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any person against any other Credit Party or any other Person, or
against any collateral or guaranty of any other Person. 
 (f) Subrogation. Until the indefeasible payment in full of all of the
Obligations and the termination of the Commitments hereunder, the Borrower shall have no rights, by operation of law or 

  

 44 

 
otherwise, upon making any payment under this Section to be subrogated to the rights of the payee against any other Credit Party with respect to such payment
or otherwise to be reimbursed, indemnified or exonerated by any such Credit Party in respect thereof. 
 (g) Effect of Stay. If
acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by any Credit Party under any of the Borrower Guaranteed Obligations is stayed upon insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of such Credit Party, all such amounts otherwise subject to
acceleration under the terms of any applicable agreement or instrument evidencing or relating to any of the Borrower Guaranteed Obligations shall nonetheless be payable by the Borrower under this Section 2.15 forthwith on demand by the
Administrative Agent. 
 Section 2.16 Extension of Termination Date. (a) At least 45 days but not more than 90 days prior to
the fourth anniversary of the Closing Date (or any anniversary of the Closing Date occurring thereafter), the Borrower, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, may request an extension of the Revolving Facility Termination Date in effect at
such time by one year from its then scheduled expiration. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of such request, and each Lender shall in turn, in its sole discretion, at least 30 days prior to the applicable anniversary date,
notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing as to whether such Lender will consent to such extension. If any Lender shall fail to notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower in writing of its consent to any such request for
extension of the Revolving Facility Termination Date at least 20 days prior to the Revolving Facility Termination Date, such Lender shall be deemed to be a Non-Consenting Lender with respect to such request. The Administrative Agent shall notify the
Borrower not later than 15 days prior to the applicable anniversary date of the decision of the Lenders regarding the Borrower’s request for an extension of the Revolving Facility Termination Date. 
 (b) If all the Lenders consent in writing to any such request in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.16, the Revolving Facility
Termination Date in effect at such time shall, effective as at the applicable anniversary date (the “Extension Date”), be extended for one year; provided that on each Extension Date the applicable conditions set forth in
Section 4.02 shall be satisfied. If less than all of the Lenders consent in writing to any such request in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.16, the Revolving Facility Termination Date in effect at such time shall,
effective as at the applicable Extension Date and subject to subsection (d) of this Section 2.16, be extended as to those Lenders that so consented (each a “Consenting Lender”) but shall not be extended as to any other
Lender (each a “Non-Consenting Lender”). To the extent that the Revolving Facility Termination Date is not extended as to any Lender pursuant to this Section 2.16 and the Commitment of such Lender is not assumed in accordance
with subsection (c) of this Section 2.16 on or prior to the applicable Extension Date, the Commitment of such Non-Consenting Lender shall automatically terminate in whole on such unextended Revolving Facility Termination Date without any
further notice or other action by the Borrower, such Lender or any other Person; provided that such Non-Consenting Lender’s rights under Sections 3.01, 11.01 or 11.02, and its obligations under Section 9.09, shall survive the
Revolving Facility Termination Date for such Lender as to matters occurring prior to such date. It is understood and agreed that no Lender shall have any obligation whatsoever to agree to any request made by the Borrower for any requested extension
of the Revolving Facility Termination Date. 
 (c) If less than all of the Lenders consent to any such request pursuant to subsection
(a) of this Section 2.16, the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify the Consenting Lenders, and each Consenting Lender may, in its sole discretion, give written notice to the Administrative Agent not later than 10 days prior to the
Revolving Facility Termination Date of the amount of the Non-Consenting Lenders’ Commitments for which it is willing to accept an assignment. If the Consenting Lenders notify the Administrative Agent that they are willing to accept assignments
of Commitments in an aggregate amount that exceeds the amount of the Commitments of the Non-Consenting Lenders, such Commitments 

  

 45 

 
shall be allocated among the Consenting Lenders willing to accept such assignments in such amounts as are agreed between the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent. If after giving effect to the assignments of Commitments described above there remains any Commitments of Non-Consenting Lenders, the Borrower may arrange for one or more Consenting Lenders or other Eligible Assignees (each, an
“Assuming Lender”) to assume, effective as of the Extension Date, any Non-Consenting Lender’s Commitment and all of the obligations of such Non-Consenting Lender under this Agreement thereafter arising, without recourse to or
warranty by, or expense to, such Non-Consenting Lender; provided, however, that the amount of the Commitment of any such Assuming Lender as a result of such substitution shall in no event be less than $10,000,000 unless the amount of the
Commitment of such Non-Consenting Lender is less than $10,000,000, in which case such Assuming Lender shall assume all of such lesser amount; and provided further that: 
 (i) any such Consenting Lender or Assuming Lender shall have paid to such Non-Consenting Lender (A) the aggregate principal amount
of, and any interest accrued and unpaid to the effective date of the assignment on, the Revolving Credit Exposure, if any, of such Non-Consenting Lender plus (B) any accrued but unpaid Fees owing to such Non-Consenting Lender as of the
effective date of such assignment; 
 (ii) all additional costs reimbursements, expense reimbursements and indemnities payable
to such Non-Consenting Lender, and all other accrued and unpaid amounts owing to such Non-Consenting Lender hereunder, as of the effective date of such assignment shall have been paid to such Non-Consenting Lender; and 
 (iii) with respect to any such Assuming Lender, the applicable processing and recordation fee required under Section 11.06(c)(i)(D)
for such assignment shall have been paid; 
 provided further that such Non-Consenting Lender’s rights under Sections 3.01, 11.01 or 11.02, and
its obligations under Section 9.09, shall survive such substitution as to matters occurring prior to the date of substitution. At least three Business Days prior to any Extension Date, (A) each such Assuming Lender, if any, shall have
delivered to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent an Assumption Agreement, duly executed by such Assuming Lender, such Non-Consenting Lender, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, (B) any such Consenting Lender shall have delivered
confirmation in writing satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent as to the increase in the amount of its Commitment and (C) each Non-Consenting Lender being replaced pursuant to this Section 2.16 shall have delivered to
the Administrative Agent any Note or Notes held by such Non-Consenting Lender. Upon the payment or prepayment of all amounts referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of the immediately preceding sentence, each such Consenting Lender or
Assuming Lender, as of the Extension Date, will be substituted for such Non-Consenting Lender under this Agreement and shall be a Lender for all purposes of this Agreement, without any further acknowledgment by or the consent of the other Lenders,
and the obligations of each such Non-Consenting Lender hereunder shall, by the provisions hereof, be released and discharged. 
 (d) If
(after giving effect to any assignments or assumptions pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section 2.16) Lenders having Commitments equal to at least 50% of the Commitments in effect immediately prior to the Extension Date consent in
writing to a requested extension (whether by execution or delivery of an Assumption Agreement or otherwise) not later than one Business Day prior to such Extension Date, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Borrower, and, subject to the
satisfaction of the applicable conditions in Section 4.02, the Revolving Facility Termination Date then in effect shall be extended for the additional one-year period as described in subsection (a) of this Section 2.16, and all
references in this Agreement, and in the Notes, if any, to the “Revolving Facility Termination Date” shall, with respect to each Consenting Lender and each Assuming Lender for such 

  

 46 

 
Extension Date, refer to the Revolving Facility Termination Date as so extended. Promptly following each Extension Date, the Administrative Agent shall
notify the Lenders (including, without limitation, each Assuming Lender) of the extension of the scheduled Revolving Facility Termination Date in effect immediately prior thereto and shall thereupon record in the Lender Register the relevant
information with respect to each such Consenting Lender and each such Assuming Lender. 
 ARTICLE III. 
 INCREASED COSTS, ILLEGALITY AND TAXES 
 Section 3.01 Increased Costs, Illegality, etc. 
 (a) Subject to Section 3.05, if (y) in the case of clause
(i) below, the Administrative Agent or (z) in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) below, any Lender, shall have determined on a reasonable basis (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and
binding upon all parties hereto): 
 (i) on any date for determining the interest rate applicable to any Fixed Rate Loan for
any Interest Period that, by reason of any changes arising after the Closing Date, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable interest rate on the basis provided for in this Agreement for such Fixed Rate Loan; or

 (ii) at any time, that such Lender shall incur increased costs or reductions in the amounts received or receivable by it
hereunder in an amount that such Lender deems material with respect to any Fixed Rate Loans (other than any increased cost or reduction in the amount received or receivable resulting from the imposition of or a change in the rate of taxes or similar
charges) because of (x) any change since the date such Lender becomes party to this Agreement in any applicable law, governmental rule, regulation, guideline, order or request (whether or not having the force of law), or in the interpretation
or administration thereof and including the introduction of any new law or governmental rule, regulation, guideline, order or request (such as, for example, but not limited to, a change in official reserve requirements, but, in all events, excluding
reserves already includable in the interest rate applicable to such Fixed Rate Loan pursuant to this Agreement) or (y) other circumstances arising after the date such Lender becomes party to this Agreement adversely affecting the London
interbank market or the position of such Lender in any such market; or 
 (iii) at any time, that the making or continuance of
any Fixed Rate Loan has become unlawful by compliance by such Lender in good faith with any change since the date such Lender becomes party to this Agreement in any law, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order, or the interpretation or
application thereof, or would conflict with any thereof not having the force of law but with which such Lender customarily complies, or has become impracticable as a result of a contingency occurring after the date such Lender becomes party to this
Agreement that materially adversely affects the London interbank market; 
 then, and in each such event, such Lender (or the Administrative Agent in
the case of clause (i) above) shall (1) on or promptly following such date or time and (2) within 10 Business Days of the date on which such event no longer exists give notice (by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Borrower and to
the Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the other Lenders). Thereafter (x) in the case of clause (i) above, the affected Type of Fixed Rate Loans shall no
longer be available until such time as the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice by the Administrative Agent 

  

 47 

 
no longer exist, and any Notice of Borrowing, Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing or Notice of Continuation or Conversion given by the Borrower with respect
to such Type of Fixed Rate Loans that have not yet been incurred, Converted or Continued shall be deemed rescinded by the Borrower or, in the case of a Notice of Borrowing other than a Borrowing of Foreign Currency Loans, shall, at the option of the
Borrower, be deemed converted into a Notice of Borrowing for Base Rate Loans to be made on the date of Borrowing contained in such Notice of Borrowing, (y) in the case of clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender, upon
written demand therefor, such additional amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender shall determine) as shall be required to compensate such Lender for such increased
costs or reductions in amounts receivable hereunder (a written notice as to the additional amounts owed to such Lender, showing the basis for the calculation thereof, which basis must be reasonable, submitted to the Borrower by such Lender shall,
absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) and (z) in the case of clause (iii) above, the Borrower shall take one of the actions specified in Section 3.01(b) as promptly as possible and, in any
event, within the time period required by law. 
 (b) At any time that any Fixed Rate Loan is affected by the circumstances described in
Section 3.01(a)(ii) or (iii), the Borrower may (and in the case of a Fixed Rate Loan affected pursuant to Section 3.01(a)(iii) the Borrower shall) either (i) if the affected Fixed Rate Loan is then being made pursuant to a Borrowing,
by giving the Administrative Agent telephonic notice (confirmed promptly in writing) thereof on the same date that the Borrower was notified by a Lender pursuant to Section 3.01(a)(ii) or (iii), cancel said Borrowing, or, in the case of any
Borrowing other than a Borrowing of Foreign Currency Loans, convert the related Notice of Borrowing into one requesting a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans or require the affected Lender to make its requested Loan as a Base Rate Loan, or (ii) if the
affected Fixed Rate Loan is then outstanding, upon at least one Business Day’s notice to the Administrative Agent, require the affected Lender to Convert each such Fixed Rate Loan into a Base Rate Loan or, in the case of a Foreign Currency
Loan, prepay in full such Foreign Currency Loan; provided, however, that if more than one Lender is affected at any time, then all affected Lenders must be treated the same pursuant to this Section 3.01(b). 
 (c) If any Lender shall have determined that after the date such Lender becomes party to this Agreement, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or
regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged by law with the interpretation or administration
thereof, or compliance by such Lender or its parent corporation with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank, or comparable agency, in each case made subsequent
to the date such Lender becomes party to this Agreement, has or would have the effect of reducing by an amount reasonably deemed by such Lender to be material to the rate of return on such Lender’s or its parent corporation’s capital or
assets as a consequence of such Lender’s commitments or obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or its parent corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, effectiveness, change or compliance (taking into
consideration such Lender’s or its parent corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time, within 15 days after demand by such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to
such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or its parent corporation for such reduction. Any affected Lender, upon determining in good faith that any additional amounts are payable pursuant to this
Section 3.01(c), will give prompt written notice thereof to the Borrower, which notice shall set forth, in reasonable detail, the basis of the calculation of such additional amounts, which basis must be reasonable, although the failure to give
any such notice shall not release or diminish any of the Borrower’s obligations to pay additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.0l(c) upon the subsequent receipt of such notice. 
  

 48 

 (d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (i) no Lender shall be entitled to
compensation or payment or reimbursement of other amounts under Section 3.01 or Section 3.04 for any amounts incurred or accruing more than 90 days prior to the giving of notice to the Borrower of additional costs or other amounts of the
nature described in such Sections, and (ii) no Lender shall demand compensation for any reduction referred to in Section 3.01(c) or payment or reimbursement of other amounts under Section 3.04 if it shall not at the time be the
general policy or practice of such Lender to demand such compensation, payment or reimbursement of borrowers in similar circumstances under comparable provisions of other credit agreements. 
 Section 3.02 Breakage Compensation. The Borrower shall compensate any Lender (including the Swing Line Lender), upon its written request
(which request shall set forth the detailed basis for requesting and the method of calculating such compensation), for all reasonable losses, costs, expenses and liabilities (including, without limitation, any loss, cost, expense or liability
incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds required by such Lender to fund its Fixed Rate Loans or Swing Loans and costs associated with foreign currency hedging obligations incurred by such Lender in connection
with any Fixed Rate Loan) which such Lender has incurred in connection with any of the following: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by such Lender or the Administrative Agent) a Borrowing of Fixed Rate Loans or Swing Loans does not
occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing, a Notice of Competitive Bid Borrowing or a Notice of Continuation or Conversion (whether or not withdrawn by the Borrower or deemed withdrawn pursuant to Section 3.01 (a));
(ii) if any repayment, prepayment, Conversion or Continuation of any Fixed Rate Loan occurs on a date that is not the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto or any Swing Loan is paid prior to the Swing Loan Maturity Date applicable
thereto; (iii) if any prepayment of any of its Fixed Rate Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by the Borrower; (iv) as a result of an assignment by a Lender of any Fixed Rate Loan other than on the last
day of the Interest Period applicable thereto pursuant to a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 3.05(b); or (v) as a consequence of (y) any other default by the Borrower to repay or prepay any Fixed Rate Loans when required by
the terms of this Agreement or (z) an election made pursuant to Section 3.05(b). The written request of any affected Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be
delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such request within 10 days after receipt thereof. 
 Section 3.03 Net Payments. 
 (a)
Except as provided for in Section 3.03(b), all payments made by the Borrower hereunder, under any Note or any other Loan Document, including all payments made by the Borrower pursuant to its guaranty obligations under Section 2.15, will be
made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees, assessments or other charges of whatever nature now or hereafter imposed by any jurisdiction or by any political
subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein with respect to such payments (but excluding, with respect to the Administrative Agent, any Lender, or any other recipient of any payment made by the Borrower hereunder, (i) any tax imposed on
or measured by the net income or net profits of such Person and franchise taxes imposed on it pursuant to the laws of the jurisdiction under which such Lender is organized or the jurisdiction in which the principal office or Applicable Lending
Office of such Lender, as applicable, is located or in which it is otherwise doing business or any subdivision thereof or therein, and (ii) any branch profits or similar taxes imposed by any jurisdiction in which such Person is located) and all
interest, penalties or similar liabilities with respect to such non-excluded taxes, levies imposts, duties, fees, assessments or other charges other than those resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent,
any Lender, or any other recipient of any payment made by the Borrower hereunder (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees, assessments or other 

  

 49 

 
charges being referred to collectively as “Taxes”). If any Taxes are so levied or imposed, the Borrower agrees to pay the full amount of
such Taxes and such additional amounts (including additional amounts to compensate for withholding on amounts paid pursuant to this Section 3.03) as may be necessary so that every payment by it of all amounts due hereunder, under any Note or
under any other Loan Document, after withholding or deduction of any Taxes will not be less than the amount provided for herein or in such Note or in such other Loan Document. The Borrower will indemnify and hold harmless any Lender, and reimburse
such Lender upon its written request, for the amount of any Taxes imposed on and paid by such Lender. The Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent within 45 days after the date the payment of any Taxes, or any withholding or deduction on
account thereof, is due pursuant to applicable law certified copies of tax receipts, or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the respective Lender, evidencing such payment by the Borrower. 
 (b) Each Lender that is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) for federal income tax purposes and
that is entitled to claim an exemption from or reduction in United States withholding tax with respect to a payment by Borrower agrees to provide to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the Closing Date, or in the case of a
Lender that is an assignee or transferee of an interest under this Agreement pursuant to Section 11.06 (unless the respective Lender was already a Lender hereunder immediately prior to such assignment or transfer and such Lender is in
compliance with the provisions of this Section), on or prior to the date of such assignment or transfer to such Lender, and from time to time thereafter if required by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent two accurate and complete original
signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN, W-8ECI, W-8EXP or W-8IMY (or successor, substitute or other appropriate forms and, in the case of Form W-8IMY, complete with accompanying Forms W-8BEN with respect to beneficial owners of the
payment) certifying to such Lender’s entitlement to exemption from or a reduced rate of withholding of United States withholding tax with respect to payments to be made under this Agreement, any Note or any other Loan Document, along with any
other appropriate documentation establishing such exemption or reduction (such as statements certifying qualification for exemption with respect to portfolio interest). In addition, each Lender agrees that from time to time after the Closing Date,
when a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders the previous certification obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, it will deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two new accurate and complete original signed copies of
the applicable Internal Revenue Service form establishing such exemption or reduction (such as statements certifying qualification for exemption with respect to portfolio interest) and any related documentation as may be required to confirm or
establish the entitlement of such Lender to a continued exemption from or reduction in United States withholding tax if the Lender continues to be so entitled. No Lender shall be required by this Section 3.03(b) to deliver a form or certificate
that it is not legally entitled to deliver. The Borrower shall not be obligated pursuant to Section 3.03(a) to pay additional amounts on account of or indemnify with respect to Taxes to the extent that such Taxes arise solely due to a
Lender’s failure to deliver forms that it was legally entitled to but failed to deliver under this Section 3.03(b). The Borrower agrees to pay additional amounts and indemnify each Lender in the manner set forth in Section 3.03(a) in
respect of any Taxes deducted or withheld by it as a result of any changes after the date such Lender becomes party to this Agreement in any applicable law, treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order, or in the interpretation thereof,
relating to the deducting or withholding of income or similar Taxes. 
 (c) Each Lender or Administrative Agent that is a United States
person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) for federal income tax purposes shall deliver at the time(s) and in the manner(s) prescribed by applicable law, to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (as applicable), a
properly completed and duly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or any successor form, certifying that such Person is exempt from United States backup withholding tax on payments made hereunder. The Borrower shall not be obligated pursuant to
Section 3.03(a) to pay additional amounts on account of or indemnify with respect to Taxes to the extent that such Taxes arise 

  

 50 

 
solely due to a Person’s failure to deliver forms that it was legally entitled to but failed to deliver under this Section 3.03(c). 
 (d) If any Lender, in its reasonable discretion, determines that it has finally and irrevocably received or been granted a refund in respect of any Taxes
as to which indemnification has been paid by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 3.03, it shall promptly remit such refund (including any interest received in respect thereof), net of all out-of-pocket costs and expenses to the Borrower;
provided, however, that the Borrower agrees to promptly return any such refund (plus interest) to such Lender in the event such Lender is required to repay such refund to the relevant taxing authority. Any such Lender shall provide the
Borrower with a copy of any notice of assessment from the relevant taxing authority (redacting any unrelated confidential information contained therein) requiring repayment of such refund. Nothing contained herein shall impose an obligation on any
Lender to apply for any such refund. 
 Section 3.04 Increased Costs to LC Issuers. If after the date an LC Issuer or Lender
becomes party to this Agreement, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged
with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any LC Issuer or any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) by any such authority, central bank or comparable agency (in each case made
subsequent to the Closing Date) shall either (i) impose, modify or make applicable any reserve, deposit, capital adequacy or similar requirement against Letters of Credit issued by such LC Issuer or such Lender’s participation therein, or
(ii) impose on such LC Issuer or any Lender any other conditions affecting this Agreement, any Letter of Credit or such Lender’s participation therein; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such LC Issuer or
such Lender of issuing, maintaining or participating in any Letter of Credit, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such LC Issuer or such Lender hereunder (other than any increased cost or reduction in the amount received or
receivable resulting from the imposition of or a change in the rate of taxes or similar charges), then, upon demand to the Borrower by such LC Issuer or such Lender (a copy of which notice shall be sent by such LC Issuer or such Lender to the
Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such LC Issuer or such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate any such LC Issuer or such Lender for such increased cost or reduction. A certificate submitted to the Borrower by
any affected LC Issuer or Lender, as the case may be (a copy of which certificate shall be sent by such LC Issuer or such Lender to the Administrative Agent), setting forth, in reasonable detail, the basis for the determination of such additional
amount or amounts necessary to compensate such LC Issuer or such Lender as aforesaid shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower absent manifest error, although the failure to deliver any such certificate shall not release or diminish the
Borrower’s obligations to pay additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.04. 
 Section 3.05 Change of Lending Office;
Replacement of Lenders. 
 (a) Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Sections
3.01(a)(ii) or (iii), 3.01(c), 3.03 or 3.04 requiring the payment of additional amounts to the Lender, such Lender will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate
another Applicable Lending Office for any Loans or Commitments affected by such event; provided, however, that such designation is made on such terms that such Lender and its Applicable Lending Office suffer no economic, legal or
regulatory disadvantage, with the object of avoiding the consequence of the event giving rise to the operation of any such Section. 
 (b) If
(i) any Lender requests any compensation, reimbursement or other payment under Sections 3.01(a)(ii) or (iii), 3.01(c) or 3.04 with respect to such Lender, or (ii) the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or
Governmental Authority pursuant to Section 3.03, then the 

  

 51 

 
Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without
recourse (in accordance with the restrictions contained in Section 11.06(c)), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations; provided, however, that
(1) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, (2) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding
principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other
amounts, including any breakage compensation under Section 3.02), and (3) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation, reimbursement or other payments required to be made under Section 3.01(a)(ii) or
(iii), Section 3.01(c) or Section 3.04 with respect to such Lender, or resulting from any required payments to any Lender or Governmental Authority pursuant to Section 3.03, such assignment will result in a reduction in such
compensation, reimbursement or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such

 Section 5.01 Corporate Status. Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (other than any Immaterial Subsidiaries) (i) is a duly
organized or formed and validly existing corporation, partnership or limited liability company, as the case may be, in good standing or in full force and effect under the laws of the jurisdiction of its formation and has the corporate, partnership
or limited liability company power and authority, as applicable, to own its property and assets and to transact the business in which it is engaged and presently proposes to engage, and (ii) has duly qualified and is authorized to do business
in all jurisdictions where it is required to be so qualified or authorized except where the failure to be so qualified would not have a Material Adverse Effect. Schedule 5.01 lists, as of the Closing Date, each Subsidiary of the Borrower (and
the direct and indirect ownership interest of the Borrower therein). 
 Section 5.02 Corporate Power and Authority. Each Credit
Party has the corporate or other organizational power and authority to execute, deliver and carry out the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents to which it is party and has taken all necessary corporate or other organizational action to
authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents to which it is party. Each Credit Party has duly executed and delivered each Loan Document to which it is party and each Loan Document to which it is party constitutes the
legal, valid and binding agreement and obligation of such Credit Party 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 

  

 55 

 
generally affecting creditors’ rights and by equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law). 
 Section 5.03 No Violation. Neither the execution, delivery and performance by any Credit Party of the Loan Documents to which it is party nor
compliance with the terms and provisions thereof (i) will contravene any provision of any law, statute, rule, regulation, order, writ, injunction or decree of any Governmental Authority applicable to such Credit Party, (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 upon any of the property or assets

Documents of such Credit Party. 
 Section 5.04 Governmental Approvals. No order, consent, approval, license, authorization, or
validation of, or filing, recording or registration with, or exemption by, any Governmental Authority is required to authorize or is required as a condition to (i) the execution, delivery and performance by any Credit Party of any Loan Document
to which it is a party or any of its obligations thereunder, or (ii) the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of any Loan Document to which any Credit Party is a party. 
 Section 5.05 Litigation. There are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened with respect to
the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (i) that have had, or could reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect, or (ii) that question the validity or enforceability of any of the Loan Documents, or of any action to be taken
by the Borrower or any of the other Credit Parties pursuant to any of the Loan Documents. 
 Section 5.06 Use of Proceeds; Margin
Regulations. 
 (a) The proceeds of all Loans and LC Issuances shall be utilized to refinance Indebtedness under the Existing Credit
Agreement, provide funds for Permitted Acquisitions and provide working capital and funds for general corporate purposes, in each case, not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement. 
 (b) No part of the proceeds of any Credit Event will be used directly or indirectly to purchase or carry Margin Stock, or to extend credit to others for
the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock, in violation of any of the provisions of Regulations T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. The Borrower is not engaged in the business of extending credit for the
purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock. At no time would more than 25% of the value of the assets of the Borrower or of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries that are subject to any “arrangement” (as such term is used
in Section 221.2(g) of such Regulation U) hereunder be represented by Margin Stock. 
 Section 5.07 Financial Statements.

 (a) The Borrower has furnished to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders complete and correct copies of (i) the audited
consolidated balance sheets of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004 and the related audited consolidated statements of income, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows of the Borrower and
its consolidated Subsidiaries for the fiscal year of the Borrower then ended, accompanied by the report thereon of KPMG LLP; and (ii) the condensed consolidated balance sheets of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries for the fiscal
quarters ended April 3, 2005 and July 3, 2005 and the related condensed consolidated statements of 

  

 56 

 
income of cash flows of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries for each of the fiscal periods then ended. All such financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with GAAP, consistently applied (except as stated therein), and fairly present the financial position of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as of the respective dates indicated and the consolidated results of their operations
and cash flows for the respective periods indicated, subject in the case of any such financial statements that are unaudited, to normal audit adjustments, none of which shall be material. The Borrower and its Subsidiaries did not have, as of the
date of the latest financial statements referred to above, and will not have as of the Closing Date after giving effect to the incurrence of Loans or LC Issuances hereunder, any material or significant contingent liability or liability for taxes,
long-term lease or unusual forward or long-term commitment that is not reflected in the foregoing financial statements or the notes thereto in accordance with GAAP and that in any such case is material in relation to the business, operations,
properties, assets, financial or other condition or prospects of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries. 
 (b) The financial projections of the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries for the fiscal years 2006 through 2010 prepared by the Borrower and delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders (the “Financial Projections”) were prepared on behalf of the Borrower in good
faith after taking into account historical levels of business activity of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, known trends, including general economic trends, and all other information, assumptions and estimates considered by management of the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries to be pertinent thereto; provided, however, that no representation or warranty is made as to the impact of future general economic conditions or as to whether the Borrower’s projected consolidated results as
set forth in the Financial Projections will actually be realized, it being recognized by the Lenders that such projections as to future events are not to be viewed as facts and that actual results for the periods covered by the Financial Projections
may differ materially from the Financial Projections. No facts are known to the Borrower as of the Closing Date which, if reflected in the Financial Projections, would result in a material adverse change in the assets, liabilities, results of
operations or cash flows reflected therein. 
 Section 5.08 Solvency. The Borrower has received consideration that is the
reasonable equivalent value of the obligations and liabilities that the Borrower has incurred to the Administrative Agent, each LC Issuer and the Lenders under the Loan Documents. The Borrower now has capital sufficient to carry on its business and
transactions and all business and transactions in which it is about to engage and is now solvent and able to pay its debts as they mature and the Borrower, as of the Closing Date, owns property having a value, both at fair valuation and at present
fair salable value, greater than the amount required to pay the Borrower’s debts; and the Borrower is not entering into the Loan Documents with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud its creditors. 
 Section 5.09 No Material Adverse Change. Since October 2, 2005, there has been no change in the financial condition, business or
operations of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, except for changes none of which, individually or in the aggregate, has had or could reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect. 
 Section 5.10 Tax Returns and Payments. The Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries has filed all federal income tax returns and all other tax
returns, domestic and foreign, required to be filed by it and has paid all material taxes and assessments payable by it that have become due, other than those not yet delinquent and except for those contested in good faith. The Borrower and each of
its Subsidiaries has established on its books such charges, accruals and reserves in respect of taxes, assessments, fees and other governmental charges for all fiscal periods as are required by GAAP. 
 Section 5.11 Title to Properties, etc. The Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries has good and marketable title, in the case of Real Property,
and good title (or valid Leaseholds, in the case of any 

  

 57 

 
leased property), in the case of all other property, to all properties and assets necessary to the conduct of its respective business free and clear of Liens
other than Permitted Liens. 
 Section 5.12 Lawful Operations, etc. The Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries: (i) hold all
necessary foreign, federal, state, local and other governmental licenses, registrations, certifications, permits and authorizations necessary to conduct its business; and (ii) is in compliance with all requirements imposed by law, regulation or
rule, whether foreign, federal, state or local, that are applicable to it, its operations, or its properties and assets, including, without limitation, applicable requirements of Environmental Laws, except, in each case, for any failure to
obtain and maintain in effect, or noncompliance that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 Section 5.13 Environmental Matters. 
 (a) The Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries is in
compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws, except to the extent that any such failure to comply (together with any resulting penalties, fines or forfeitures) is not reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect. All licenses, permits,
registrations or approvals required for the conduct of the business of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries under any Environmental Law have been secured and the Borrower and its Subsidiaries are in substantial compliance therewith, except for such
licenses, permits, registrations or approvals the failure to secure or to comply therewith is not reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries has received written notice, or otherwise knows,
that it is in any respect in noncompliance with, breach of or default under any applicable writ, order, judgment, injunction, or decree to which the Borrower or such Subsidiary is a party or that would affect the ability of the Borrower or such
Subsidiary to operate any Real Property and no event has occurred and is continuing that, with the passage of time or the giving of notice or both, would constitute noncompliance, breach of or default thereunder, except in each such case, such
noncompliance, breaches or defaults as are not reasonably likely to, in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. There are no Environmental Claims pending or, to the best knowledge of any Borrower, threatened against the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries or any Real Property of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries wherein an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect. There are no facts, circumstances, conditions or occurrences on
any Real Property now or at any time owned, leased or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or on any property adjacent to any such Real Property, that are known by the Borrower or as to which the Borrower or any such Subsidiary has
received written notice, that are reasonably likely: (i) to form the basis of an Environmental Claim against the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any Real Property of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries; or (ii) to cause such
Real Property to be subject to any restrictions on the ownership, occupancy, use or transferability of such Real Property under any Environmental Law, except in each such case, such Environmental Claims or restrictions that individually or in the
aggregate are not reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (b) Hazardous Materials have not at any time been
(i) generated, used, treated or stored on, or transported to or from, any Real Property of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or (ii) Released on any such Real Property, in each case where such occurrence or event is not in compliance
with Environmental Laws and is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 Section 5.14 Compliance with ERISA.
Compliance by the Borrower with the provisions hereof and Credit Events contemplated hereby will not involve any prohibited transaction within the meaning of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.14, the
Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries and each ERISA Affiliate (i) has fulfilled all obligations under the minimum funding standards of ERISA and the Code with respect to each Plan that is not a Multi-Employer Plan or

under Title IV of ERISA to the PBGC with respect to any Plan, any Multi-Employer Plan, any Multiple Employer Plan, or any trust established thereunder. No Plan or trust created thereunder has been terminated, and there have been no Reportable
Events, with respect to any Plan or trust created thereunder or with respect to any Multi-Employer Plan or Multiple Employer Plan, which termination or Reportable Event will or could give rise to a material liability of the Borrower or any ERISA
Affiliate in respect thereof. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.14, neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary of the Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate is at the date hereof, or has been at any time within the five years preceding the date
hereof, an employer required to contribute to any Multi-Employer Plan or Multiple Employer Plan, or a “contributing sponsor” (as such term is defined in Section 4001 of ERISA) in any Multi-Employer Plan or Multiple Employer Plan.
Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary of the Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has any contingent liability with respect to any post-retirement “welfare benefit plan” (as such term is defined in ERISA) except as has been disclosed to the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders in writing.

without any known conflict with the rights of others, except for such patents, trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights, licenses and rights, the loss of which, and such conflicts which, in any such case individually or in the
aggregate could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

estimates and assumptions believed by such persons to be reasonable at the time made, it being recognized by the Lenders that such projections as to future events are not to be viewed as facts and that actual results during the period or periods
covered by any such projections may differ materially from the projected results.

performance of any agreement or condition relating to any such Material Indebtedness or contained in any instrument or agreement evidencing, securing or relating thereto (and all grace periods applicable to such observance, performance or condition
shall have expired), or any other event shall occur or condition exist, the effect of which default or other event or condition is to cause, or to permit the holder or holders of such Material Indebtedness (or a trustee or agent on behalf of such
holder or holders) to cause any such Material Indebtedness to become due prior to its stated maturity; or any such Material Indebtedness of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall be declared to be due and payable, or shall be required to be
prepaid (other than by a regularly scheduled required prepayment or redemption, prior to the stated maturity thereof); or (iii) without limitation of the foregoing clauses, default in any payment obligation under a Designated Hedge Agreement,
and such default shall continue after the applicable grace period, if any, specified in such Designated Hedge Agreement or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto; or 
 (f) Invalidity of Loan Documents: any provision of any Loan Document, at any time after its execution and delivery and for any reason other than
as expressly permitted hereunder or under such Loan Document or satisfaction in full of all the Obligations, ceases to be in full force and effect; or any Credit Party or any other Person contests in any manner the validity or enforceability of any
provision of any Loan Document; or any Credit Party denies that it has any or further liability or obligation under any Loan Document, or purports to revoke, terminate or rescind any Loan Document; or 
 (g) Judgments: (i) one or more judgments, orders or decrees shall be entered against the Borrower and/or any of its Subsidiaries involving a
liability (other than a liability covered by insurance, as to which the carrier has adequate claims paying ability and has not effectively reserved its rights) of $25,000,000 or more in the aggregate for all such judgments, orders and decrees for
the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, and any such judgments or orders or decrees shall not have been vacated, discharged or stayed or bonded pending appeal within 30 days from the entry thereof; or (ii) one or more judgments, orders or decrees
shall be entered against the Borrower and/or any of its Subsidiaries involving a required divestiture of any material properties, assets or business reasonably estimated to have a fair value in excess of $25,000,000, and any such judgments, orders
or decrees shall not have been vacated, discharged 

  

 71

judgment lien, is effectively stayed or prohibited) from the entry thereof; or 
 (h) Insolvency Event: any Insolvency Event shall
occur with respect to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (other than an Immaterial Subsidiary); or 
 (i) ERISA: an event or
condition specified in Section 6.01(f) shall occur or exist with respect to any Plan or Multiple Employer Plan and as a result of such event or condition, together with all other such events or conditions, the Borrower or any ERISA
Affiliate shall incur a liability to a Plan, a Multiple Employer Plan or PBGC (or any combination of the foregoing) that, in the reasonable determination of the Required Lenders, would (either individually or in the aggregate) have a Material
Adverse Effect; or 
 (j) Environmental Claim: there shall have been asserted against the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any
predecessor in interest of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, an Environmental Claim that in the reasonable judgment of the Required Lenders is reasonably likely to be determined adversely to the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries, and the amount thereof (either individually or in the aggregate) is reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect (insofar as such amount is payable by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries but after deducting any portion
thereof that is reasonably expected to be paid by other creditworthy Persons jointly and severally liable therefor); or 
 (k) Change of
Control: if there occurs a Change of Control. 
 Section 8.02 Remedies. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, and at
any time thereafter, if any Event of Default shall then be continuing, the Administrative Agent shall, upon the written request of the Required Lenders, by written notice to the Borrower, take any or all of the following actions, without prejudice
to the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to enforce its claims against the Borrower or any other Credit Party in any manner permitted under applicable law: 
 (a) declare the Commitments terminated, whereupon the Commitment of each Lender shall forthwith terminate immediately without any other notice of any kind; 
 (b) declare the principal of and any accrued interest in respect of all Loans, all Unreimbursed Drawings and all other Obligations owing hereunder and/or
under any other Loan Document to be, whereupon the same shall become, forthwith due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower; 
 (c) terminate any Letter of Credit that may be terminated in accordance with its terms; or 
 (d) exercise any other right or remedy available under any of the Loan Documents or applicable law; 
 provided that, if an Event of Default specified in Section 8.01(h) shall occur, the result that would occur upon the giving of written notice by the
Administrative Agent as specified in clauses (a) and/or (b) above shall occur automatically without the giving of any such notice. 
  

 72 

 Section 8.03 Application of Certain Payments and Proceeds. All payments and other amounts
received by the Administrative Agent or any Lender through the exercise of remedies hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall, unless otherwise required by the terms of the other Loan Documents or by applicable law, be applied as follows:

amounts (including attorneys’ fees and amounts due under Article III) payable to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such;

 (vii) finally, any remaining surplus after all of the Obligations have been paid in full, to the Borrower or to whomsoever shall be
lawfully entitled thereto. 
 ARTICLE IX. 
 THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT 
 Section 9.01 Appointment. Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints KeyBank to
act as specified herein and in the other Loan Documents, and each such Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes KeyBank as the Administrative Agent for such Lender, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental
thereto. The Administrative Agent agrees to act as such upon the express conditions contained in this Article. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or
responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents, nor any fiduciary relationship with any Lender or LC Issuer, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be
read into this Agreement or otherwise 

  

 73 

 
exist against the Administrative Agent. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and no Credit
Party shall have any rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of the provisions hereof. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall act solely as agent of the Lenders and does not assume and shall
not be deemed to have assumed any obligation or relationship of agency or trust with or for the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries. 
 Section 9.02 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, sub-agents or attorneys-in-fact, and shall be entitled to advice of
counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents, sub-agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care except to the extent
otherwise required by Section 9.03. 
 Section 9.03 Exculpatory Provisions. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its
Related Parties shall be (a) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except for its or such Related Parties’ own gross
negligence or willful misconduct) or (b) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers contained
in this Agreement, any other Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or
for any failure of the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower or any of their respective officers to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Administrative Agent shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to
inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower. The
Administrative Agent shall not be responsible to any Lender for the effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectibility or sufficiency of this Agreement or any Loan Document or for any representations, warranties, recitals or
statements made herein or therein or made in any written or oral statement or in any financial or other statements, instruments, reports, certificates or any other documents in connection herewith or therewith furnished or made by the Administrative
Agent to the Lenders or by or on behalf of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to the Administrative Agent or any Lender or be required to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, provisions,
covenants or agreements contained herein or therein or as to the use of the proceeds of the Loans or of the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default. 
 Section 9.04 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying,
upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, e-mail or other electronic transmission, facsimile transmission, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation
believed by it, in good faith, to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it
shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of
taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required
Lenders or all of the Lenders, as applicable, as to any matter 

  

 74 

 
that, pursuant to Section 11.12, can only be effectuated with the consent of all Required Lenders, or all applicable Lenders, as the case may be), and
such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders. 
 Section 9.05 Notice of
Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this
Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” If the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. The
Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders; provided, however, that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received
such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders.

 Section 9.06 Non-Reliance. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related
Parties has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereinafter taken, including, without limitation, any review of the affairs of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, shall be deemed to
constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, or any other Lender, and based on
such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, assets, operations, property, financial and other conditions, prospects and creditworthiness of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, or any other Lender, and based on such
documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to
inform itself as to the business, assets, operations, property, financial and other conditions, prospects and creditworthiness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any
Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, assets, property, financial and other conditions, prospects or creditworthiness of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that may come into the possession of the
Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties. 
 Section 9.07 No Reliance on Administrative Agent’s Customer
Identification Program. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that neither such Lender, nor any of its Affiliates, participants or assignees, may rely on the Administrative Agent to carry out such Lender’s, Affiliate’s,
participant’s or assignee’s customer identification program, or other obligations required or imposed under or pursuant to the USA Patriot Act or the regulations thereunder, including the regulations contained in 31 CFR 103.121 (as
hereafter amended or replaced, the “CIP Regulations”), or any other Anti-Terrorism Law, including any programs involving any of the following items relating to or in connection with the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, any of
their respective Affiliates or agents, the Loan Documents or the transactions hereunder: (a) any identity verification procedures, (b) any record keeping, (c) any comparisons with government lists, (d) any customer notices or
(e) any other procedures required under the CIP Regulations or such other laws. 
 Section 9.08 USA Patriot Act. Each Lender
or assignee or participant of a Lender that is not organized under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof (and is not excepted from the certification requirement contained in Section 313 of the USA Patriot Act and the
applicable regulations because it is both (a) an affiliate of a depository institution or foreign bank that maintains a 

  

 75 

 
physical presence in the United States or foreign country, and (b) subject to supervision by a banking authority regulating such affiliated depository
institution or foreign bank) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the certification, or, if applicable, recertification, certifying that such Lender is not a “shell” and certifying to other matters as required by Section 313 of
the USA Patriot Act and the applicable regulations: (i) within 10 days after the Closing Date, and (ii) at such other times as are required under the USA Patriot Act. 
 Section 9.09 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent and its Related Parties, ratably according to their
pro rata share of the Aggregate Credit Facility Exposure (excluding Swing Loans), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, reasonable expenses or disbursements of any
kind whatsoever that may at any time (including, without limitation, at any time following the payment of the Obligations) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent or such Related Parties in any way relating to or
arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or the transactions contemplated hereby or any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Administrative Agent or such Related Parties
under or in connection with any of the foregoing, but only to the extent that any of the foregoing is not paid by the Borrower; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable to the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties for
the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements to the extent resulting solely from the Administrative Agent’s or such Related Parties’
gross negligence or willful misconduct. If any indemnity furnished to the Administrative Agent or any such Related Parties for any purpose shall, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, the Administrative
Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of all Obligations. 
 Section 9.10 The Administrative Agent in Individual Capacity. The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits
from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower, its Subsidiaries and their Affiliates as though not acting as Administrative Agent hereunder. With respect to the Loans made by it and all Obligations owing to it, the
Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include the
Administrative Agent in its individual capacity. 
 Section 9.11 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may
resign at any time upon not less than 30 days notice to the Lenders, each LC Issuer and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a
successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative
Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and each LC Issuer, appoint a successor Administrative Agent; provided, however, that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no such successor is willing to accept such
appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (i) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents
(except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or any LC Issuer under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until
such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (ii) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and LC Issuer
directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this paragraph. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as 

  

 76 

 
Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or
retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this paragraph).
The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 11.02 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any
actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent. 
 Section 9.12 Other Agents. Any Lender identified herein as a Co-Agent, Syndication Agent, Documentation Agent, Managing Agent, Manager, Lead Arranger, Arranger or any other corresponding title, other than “Administrative
Agent,” shall have no right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement or any other Loan Document except those applicable to all Lenders as such. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not
rely, on any Lender so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking any action hereunder. 
 ARTICLE X.

 GUARANTY 
 Section 10.01
Guaranty by the Subsidiary Guarantors, etc. 
 (a) Each Subsidiary Guarantor, jointly and severally, irrevocably and unconditionally
guarantees to the Administrative Agent, each LC Issuer, the Lenders, and each Designated Hedge Creditor, as applicable, the full and prompt payment when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of all of the Obligations.
Such guaranty is an absolute, unconditional, present and continuing guaranty of payment and not of collectibility and is in no way conditioned or contingent upon any attempt to collect from the Borrower or any other Subsidiary or Affiliate of the
Borrower, or any other action, occurrence or circumstance whatsoever. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing hereunder or any payment default shall occur and be outstanding under any Designated Hedge Agreement, each Subsidiary
Guarantor will, immediately upon (and in any event no later than one Business Day following) its receipt of written notice from the Administrative Agent demanding payment hereunder, pay to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Creditors,
in immediately available funds, at the Payment Office, such amount of the Obligations as the Administrative Agent shall specify in such notice. 
 (b) In addition to the foregoing, each Subsidiary Guarantor, jointly and severally, unconditionally and irrevocably, guarantees to the Creditors the payment of any and all Obligations, whether or not due or payable by the obligor thereon,
upon the occurrence of an Insolvency Event in respect of the Borrower or such other Credit Party, and unconditionally and irrevocably, jointly and severally, promises to pay the Obligations to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the
Creditors, on demand, in such currency and otherwise in such manner as is provided in the Loan Documents governing the Obligations. 
 (c) As
a separate, additional and continuing obligation, each Subsidiary Guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes and agrees, for the benefit of the Creditors, that, should any amounts constituting Obligations not be recoverable from the
Borrower or any other Credit Party for any reason whatsoever (including, without limitation, by reason of any provision of any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument executed in connection therewith being or becoming, at any time,

  

 77 

 
voidable, void, unenforceable, or otherwise invalid under any applicable law), then notwithstanding any notice or knowledge thereof by the Administrative
Agent, any other Creditor, any of their respective Affiliates, or any other Person, each Subsidiary Guarantor, jointly and severally, as sole, original and independent obligor, upon demand by the Administrative Agent, will make payment to the
Administrative Agent, for the account of the Creditors, of all such obligations not so recoverable by way of full indemnity. 
 (d) All
payments by each Subsidiary Guarantor under this Article X shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Creditors, in such currency and otherwise in such manner as is provided in the Loan Documents to which such payments relate.

 Section 10.02 Subordination. 
 (a) Any Indebtedness or other obligations or liabilities of the Borrower now or hereafter held by any Subsidiary Guarantor (collectively, “Subordinated Obligations”) are hereby subordinated to the
Indebtedness of the Borrower to any Creditor; and such Subordinated Obligations of the Borrower to any Subsidiary Guarantor, if the Administrative Agent, after an Event of Default has occurred, so requests, shall be collected, enforced and received
by such Subsidiary Guarantor as trustee for the Administrative Agent and the other Creditors and be paid over to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Creditors, on account of the Indebtedness of the Borrower owing under the Loan
Documents to the Administrative Agent and to the other Creditors, but without affecting or impairing in any manner the liability of such Subsidiary Guarantor under the other provisions of this Article X. Prior to the transfer by any Subsidiary
Guarantor of any note or negotiable instrument evidencing any Subordinated Obligation of the Borrower to such Subsidiary Guarantor, such Subsidiary Guarantor shall mark such note or negotiable instrument with a legend that the same is subject to
this subordination. 
 (b) If and to the extent that any Subsidiary Guarantor makes any payment to the Administrative Agent or any other
Creditor or to any other Person pursuant to or in respect of this Article X, any reimbursement or similar claim that such Subsidiary Guarantor may have against the Borrower by reason thereof shall be subject and subordinate to the prior termination
of all of the Commitments and indefeasible payment in full of all Obligations. 
 Section 10.03 Subsidiary Guarantors’
Obligations Absolute. The obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor under this Article X shall be absolute and unconditional, shall not be subject to any counterclaim, setoff, deduction or defense based on any claim such Subsidiary Guarantor may
have against the Borrower or any other Person, including, without limitation, the Administrative Agent, any other Creditor, any of their respective Affiliates, or any other Guarantor, and shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and
shall not be released, suspended, abated, deferred, reduced, limited, discharged, terminated or otherwise impaired or adversely affected by any circumstance or occurrence whatsoever, other than indefeasible payment in full of, and complete
performance of, all of the Obligations, including, without limitation: 
 (a) any increase in the amount of the Obligations outstanding from
time to time, including, without limitation, any increase in the aggregate outstanding amount of the Loans and Letters of Credit above any specific maximum amount referred to in this Agreement as in effect on the date hereof, and any increase in any
interest rate, Fee or other amount applicable to any portion of the Obligations or otherwise payable under any Loan Document; 
 (b) any
direction as to the application of any payment by the Borrower or by any other Person; 
  

 78 

 (c) any incurrence of additional Obligations at any time or under any circumstances, including, without
limitation, (i) during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default, (ii) at any time when all conditions to such incurrence have not been satisfied, or (iii) in excess of any borrowing base, sublimit or other limitations
contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents; 
 (d) any renewal or extension of the time for payment or maturity of any of
the Obligations, or any amendment or modification of, or addition or supplement to, or deletion from, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any other instrument or agreement applicable to the Borrower or any other Person, or any part thereof,
or any assignment, transfer or other disposition of any thereof; 
 (e) any failure of this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any other
instrument or agreement applicable to the Borrower or any other Person, to constitute the legal, valid and binding agreement or obligation of any party thereto, enforceable in accordance with its terms, or any irregularity in the form of any Loan
Document; 
 (f) any waiver, consent, extension, indulgence or other action or inaction (including, without limitation, any lack of
diligence, any failure to mitigate damages or marshal assets, or any election of remedies) under or in respect of (i) this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any such other instrument or agreement, or (ii) any obligation or liability
of the Borrower or any other Person; 
 (g) any payment made to the Administrative Agent or any other Creditor on the Obligations that the
Administrative Agent or any other Creditor repays, returns or otherwise restores to the Borrower or any other applicable obligor pursuant to court order in any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium or other debtor relief proceeding;

 (h) any sale, exchange, release, surrender or foreclosure of, or any realization upon, or other dealing with, in any manner and in any
order, any property, rights or interests by whomsoever at any time granted, assigned, pledged or mortgaged to secure, or howsoever securing, the Obligations, or any other liabilities or obligations (including any of those hereunder), or any portion
of any thereof; 
 (i) any release of any security or any guaranty by or at the direction of the Administrative Agent or any other Creditor,
or any release or discharge of, or limitation of recourse against, any Person furnishing any security or guaranty, including, without limitation, any release or discharge of any Guarantor from this Article X; 
 (j) any Insolvency Event relating to the Borrower or to any of its properties or assets; 
 (k) any assignment, transfer or other disposition, in whole or in part, by the Borrower or any other Person of its interest in any of the property,
rights or interests constituting security for all or any portion of the Obligations or any other Indebtedness, liabilities or obligations; 
 (l) any lack of notice to, or knowledge by, any Subsidiary Guarantor of any of the matters referred to above; or 
 (m) to the
fullest extent permitted under applicable law now or hereafter in effect, any other circumstance or occurrence, whether similar or dissimilar to any of the foregoing, that could or might constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of the
obligations of, a guarantor or other surety. 
 Section 10.04 Waivers. Each Subsidiary Guarantor unconditionally waives, to the
maximum extent permitted under any applicable law now or hereafter in effect, insofar as its obligations under this Article X are concerned, (a) notice of any of the matters referred to in Section 10.03, (b) all 

  

 79 

 
notices required by statute, rule of law or otherwise to preserve any rights against such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder, including, without limitation, any
demand, presentment, proof or notice of dishonor or non-payment of any Obligation, notice of acceptance of the Guaranty provided under this Article X, notice of the incurrence of any Obligation, notice of any failure on the part of the Borrower, any
of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, or any other Person, to perform or comply with any term or provision of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument to which the Borrower or any other Person is a party, or notice
of the commencement of any proceeding against any other Person or its any of its property or assets, (c) any right to the enforcement, assertion or exercise against the Borrower or against any other Person or any collateral of any right, power
or remedy under or in respect of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument, and (d) any requirement that such Guarantor be joined as a party to any proceedings against the Borrower or any other Person for the
enforcement of any term or provision of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, or any other agreement or instrument. 
 Section 10.05
Subrogation Rights. Until such time as the Obligations have been paid in full in cash and otherwise fully performed and all of the Commitments under this Agreement have been terminated, each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives all
rights of subrogation that it may at any time otherwise have as a result of this Article X (whether contractual, under Section 509 of the Bankruptcy Code, or otherwise) to the claims of the Administrative Agent and/or the other Creditors
against the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other guarantor of or surety for the Obligations and all contractual, statutory or common law rights of reimbursement, contribution or indemnity from the Borrower or any other Guarantor that it may at
any time otherwise have as a result of this Article X. 
 Section 10.06 Separate Actions. A separate action or actions may be
brought and prosecuted against any Guarantor whether or not action is brought against any other Guarantor, any other guarantor or the Borrower, and whether or not any other Guarantor, any other guarantor of the Borrower or the Borrower be joined in
any such action or actions. 
 Section 10.07 Subsidiary Guarantors Familiar with Borrower’s Affairs. Each Guarantor confirms
that it has made its own independent investigation with respect to the creditworthiness of the Borrower and its other Subsidiaries and Affiliates and is not executing this Agreement in reliance on any representation or warranty by the Administrative
Agent or any other Creditor or any other Person acting on behalf of the Administrative Agent or any other Creditor as to such creditworthiness. Each Guarantor expressly assumes all responsibilities to remain informed of the financial condition of
the Borrower and its other Subsidiaries and Affiliates and any circumstances affecting (a) the Borrower’s or any other Subsidiary’s or Affiliate’s ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents to which it is a party, or (b) any collateral securing, or any other guaranty for, all or any part of the Borrower’s or such other Subsidiary’s or Affiliate’s payment and performance obligations thereunder; and each
Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that the Administrative Agent and the other Creditors shall have no duty to advise any Subsidiary Guarantor of information known to them regarding such circumstances or the risks such Subsidiary Guarantor
undertakes in this Article X. 
 Section 10.08 Solvency. Each Subsidiary Guarantor represents and warrants to the Administrative
Agent and each of the other Creditors that as of the date such Guarantor has become a party to this Agreement, (i) such Subsidiary Guarantor has received consideration that is the reasonable equivalent value of the obligations and liabilities
that such Subsidiary Guarantor has incurred to the Administrative Agent and the other Creditors under this Article X and the other Loan Documents to which such Subsidiary Guarantor is a party; (ii) such Subsidiary Guarantor has capital
sufficient to carry on its business and transactions and all business and transactions in which it is about to engage and is solvent and able to pay its debts as they mature; (iii) such Subsidiary Guarantor owns property having a value, both at
fair valuation and at present fair salable value, greater than the amount required to pay its 

  

 80 

 
debts; and (iv) such Subsidiary Guarantor is not entering into the Loan Documents to which it is a party with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud its
creditors. 
 Section 10.09 Continuing Guaranty; Remedies Cumulative, etc. The guaranty provided under this Article X is a
continuing guaranty, all liabilities to which it applies or may apply under the terms hereof shall be conclusively presumed to have been created in reliance hereon, and this Article X shall remain in full force and effect until terminated as
provided in Section 10.18. No failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent or any other Creditor in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of
any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein expressly specified are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or
remedies that the Administrative Agent or any other Creditor would otherwise have. No notice to or demand on any Guarantor in any case shall entitle such Guarantor to any other further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute
a waiver of the rights of the Administrative Agent or any other Creditor to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. It is not necessary for, and neither the Administrative Agent nor any other Creditor, undertakes
any obligation or duty to, inquire into the capacity or powers of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or the officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on its behalf, and any indebtedness made or created in reliance upon
the professed exercise of such powers shall be guaranteed hereunder. 
 Section 10.10 Application of Payments and Recoveries. All
amounts received by the Administrative Agent pursuant to, or in connection with the enforcement of, this Article X, together with all amounts and other rights and benefits realized by any Creditor (or to which any Creditor may be entitled) by virtue
of this Article X, shall be applied as provided in Section 8.03. 
 Section 10.11 Enforcement Expenses. The Guarantors
hereby jointly and severally agree to pay, to the extent not paid pursuant to Section 11.01, all out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent and each other Creditor in connection with the enforcement of this Article X and any
amendment, waiver or consent relating hereto (including, without limitation, the fees and disbursements of a single counsel employed by the Administrative Agent and the other Creditors for each applicable jurisdiction, unless such counsel has a
conflict of interest prohibiting it from representing one or more of the Creditors, in which case the fees and disbursements of separate counsel for such Creditors shall also be paid by the Guarantors as aforesaid). 
 Section 10.12 Right of Setoff. 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 an Event of Default after any applicable notice and grace period, each Creditor is hereby authorized at any time or from time to time, without notice to any Subsidiary Guarantor or to
any other Person, any such notice being expressly waived, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law now or hereafter in effect, to set off and to appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special) and any other indebtedness
at any time held or owing by such Creditor to or for the credit or the account of such Subsidiary Guarantor, against and on account of the obligations and liabilities of such Subsidiary Guarantor to such Creditor under this Article X, irrespective
of whether or not the Administrative Agent or such Creditor shall have made any demand hereunder and although said obligations, liabilities, deposits or claims, or any of them, shall be contingent or unmatured. Each Creditor agrees to promptly
notify the relevant Subsidiary Guarantor after any such set off and application, provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set off and application. 
 Section 10.13 Reinstatement. If a claim is ever made upon the Administrative Agent or any other Creditor for recission, repayment, recovery
or restoration of any amount or amounts received by the Administrative Agent or any other Creditor in payment or on account of any of the Obligations and any of 

  

 81 

 
the aforesaid payees repays all or part of said amount by reason of (a) any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body having
jurisdiction over such payee or any of its property, or (b) any settlement or compromise of any such claim effected by such payee with any such claimant, then and in such event (i) any such judgment, decree, order, settlement or compromise
shall be binding upon each Subsidiary Guarantor, notwithstanding any revocation hereof or other instrument evidencing any liability of the Borrower, (ii) each Subsidiary Guarantor shall be and remain liable to the aforesaid payees hereunder for
the amount so repaid or otherwise recovered or restored to the same extent as if such amount had never originally been received by any such payee, and (iii) this Article X shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, all
as if such repayment or other recovery had not occurred. 
 Section 10.14 Sale of Capital Stock of a Guarantor. If all of the
capital stock of one or more Subsidiary Guarantors is sold or otherwise disposed of or liquidated in compliance with the requirements of Section 7.02 (or such sale or other disposition has been approved in writing by the Required Lenders (or
all Lenders, as applicable, if required by Section 11.12)) and the proceeds of such sale, disposition or liquidation are applied, to the extent applicable, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, such Subsidiary Guarantor shall, in
accordance with Section 11.12, be released from this Article X and this Article X shall, as to each such Subsidiary Guarantor or Subsidiary Guarantors, terminate, and have no further force or effect. 
 Section 10.15 Contribution Among Guarantors. Each Subsidiary Guarantor, in addition to the subrogation rights it shall have against the
Borrower under applicable law as a result of any payment it makes hereunder, shall also have a right of contribution against all other Subsidiary Guarantors in respect of any such payment pro rata among the same based on their respective net fair
value as enterprises, provided any such right of contribution shall be subject and subordinate to the prior payment in full of the Obligations (and such Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations in respect thereof). 
 Section 10.16 Full Recourse Obligations; Effect of Fraudulent Transfer Laws, etc. It is the desire and intent of each Subsidiary Guarantor,
the Administrative Agent and the other Creditors that this Article X shall be enforced as a full recourse obligation of each Subsidiary Guarantor to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in
which enforcement is sought. If and to the extent that the obligations of any Subsidiary Guarantor under this Article X would, in the absence of this sentence, be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable because of any applicable state or federal
law relating to fraudulent conveyances or transfers, then the amount of such Subsidiary Guarantor’s liability hereunder in respect of the Obligations shall be deemed to be reduced ab initio to that maximum amount that would be permitted
without causing such Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations hereunder to be so invalidated. 
 Section 10.17 Payments Free and Clear
of Setoffs, Counterclaims and Taxes, etc. 
 (a) All payments made by any Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder will be made without setoff,
counterclaim or other defense and, except as provided for in this Section 10.17, all such payments will be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, any present or future Taxes. If any Taxes are so levied or imposed, the
applicable Subsidiary Guarantor agrees to pay the full amount of such Taxes and such additional amounts as may be necessary so that every payment by it of all amounts due hereunder, after withholding or deduction for or on account of any Taxes will
not be less than the amount provided for herein. The applicable Subsidiary Guarantor will furnish to the Administrative Agent within 45 days after the date the payment of any Taxes, or any withholding or deduction on account thereof, is due pursuant
to applicable law certified copies of tax receipts, or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Creditor, evidencing such payment by the applicable Subsidiary Guarantor. Each applicable Subsidiary Guarantor will indemnify and hold
harmless the Administrative Agent and each Creditor, and reimburse the Administrative Agent or such Creditor upon its written request, for the 

  

 88 

 
amount of any Taxes so levied or imposed on and paid or withheld by such Creditor in respect of payments by the applicable Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder.

 (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 10.17, (i) any applicable Subsidiary Guarantor shall be
entitled, to the extent it is required to do so by law, to deduct or withhold income or other similar taxes imposed by the United States (or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein) from any amounts payable hereunder for the
account of any Creditor that is not a United States Person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) for United States federal income tax purposes and that has not provided to the Borrower such forms that establish a complete
exemption from such deduction or withholding; and (ii) any applicable Subsidiary Guarantor shall not be obligated pursuant to this Section 10.17 hereof to gross-up payments to be made to a Creditor in respect of income or similar taxes
imposed by the United States or any additional amounts with respect thereto if such Creditor has not provided to the Borrower such forms. 
 Section 10.18 Termination. After the termination of all of the Commitments, when no LC Outstandings exist and when all Loans and other Obligations (other than unasserted indemnity obligations) have been paid in full, this
guaranty provided under this Article X will terminate and the Administrative Agent, at the request and expense of the Borrower and/or any of the Subsidiary Guarantors, will execute and deliver to the Subsidiary Guarantors an instrument or
instruments acknowledging such termination. 
 Section 10.19 Enforcement Only by Administrative Agent. The Creditors agree that
the guaranty provided under this Article X may be enforced only by the action of the Administrative Agent, acting upon the instructions of the Required Lenders, and that no Creditor shall have any right individually to seek to enforce or to enforce
the guaranty provided under this Article X, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised by the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Creditors, upon the terms of this Article X. 
 Section 10.20 Effect of Stay. If acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by any Subsidiary Guarantor under any of the
Obligations is stayed upon insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of such Subsidiary Guarantor, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of any applicable agreement or instrument evidencing or relating to any of the
Obligations shall nonetheless be payable by such Subsidiary Guarantor under this Article forthwith on demand by the Administrative Agent. 
 ARTICLE XI. 
 MISCELLANEOUS 
 Section 11.01 Payment of Expenses etc. The Borrower agrees to pay (or reimburse the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or their Affiliates, as the case may be, for) all of the following: (i) whether or not the transactions
contemplated hereby are consummated, for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent in connection with the negotiation, preparation, syndication, administration and execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and
the documents and instruments referred to therein and the syndication of the Commitments; (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with any amendment, waiver or consent

Loan Documents or the other documents and instruments referred to therein, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of any individual counsel to the Administrative Agent and any Lender (including, without limitation,

  

 83 

 
allocated costs of internal counsel); and (iv) subject to Section 3.03, any and all present and future stamp and other similar taxes with respect
to the foregoing matters and save the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders harmless from and against any and all liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay or omission (other than to the extent attributable to any such
indemnified Person) to pay such taxes. 
 Section 11.02 Indemnification. The Borrower agrees to indemnify the Administrative
Agent, each Lender, and their respective Related Parties (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and hold each of them harmless against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses reasonably incurred by any of them
as a result of, or arising out of, or in any way related to, or by reason of (i) any investigation, litigation or other proceeding related to the entering into and/or performance of any Loan Document or the use of the proceeds of any Loans
hereunder or the consummation of any transactions contemplated in any Loan Document, other than any such investigation, litigation or proceeding arising out of transactions solely between any of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent, transactions
solely involving the assignment by a Lender of all or a portion of its Loans and Commitments, or the granting of participations therein, as provided in this Agreement, or arising solely out of any examination of a Lender by any regulatory or other
Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over it, or (ii) the actual or alleged presence of Hazardous Materials in the air, surface water or groundwater or on the surface or subsurface of any Real Property owned, leased or operated by the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, the Release, generation, storage, transportation, handling or disposal of Hazardous Materials at any location, whether or not owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, if the Borrower or any
such Subsidiary could have or is alleged to have any responsibility in respect thereof, the non-compliance of any Real Property owned, leased or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries with foreign, federal, state and local laws,
regulations and ordinances (including applicable permits thereunder) applicable thereto, or any Environmental Claim asserted against the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, in respect of any such Real Property, including, in the case of each of
(i) and (ii) above, without limitation, the reasonable documented fees and disbursements of counsel (such costs of counsel to be limited to one counsel to the Administrative Agent for each applicable jurisdiction and one single counsel for
all other Indemnitees for each applicable jurisdiction unless such counsel has a conflict of interest prohibiting it from representing one or more of such Indemnitees, in which case the fees and disbursements of separate counsel for such Indemnitees
shall also be paid by the Borrower as aforesaid) incurred in connection with any such investigation, litigation or other proceeding (but excluding any such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses to the extent incurred by reason of the
gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach of its obligations under any Loan Document of the Person to be indemnified or of any other Indemnitee who is such Person or an Affiliate of such Person). To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify,
pay or hold harmless any Person set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, the Borrower shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the indemnified
liabilities that is permissible under applicable law. 
 Section 11.03 Right of Setoff. In addition to any rights now or
hereafter granted under applicable law or otherwise, and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Lender and each LC Issuer is hereby authorized at any time or from time
to time, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind to the Borrower or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special) and
any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Lender or such LC Issuer (including, without limitation, by branches, agencies and Affiliates of such Lender or LC Issuer wherever located) to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower
against and on account of the Obligations and liabilities of the Borrower to such Lender or LC Issuer under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, all claims of any nature or description arising out
of or connected with this Agreement or any other Loan 

  

 84 

 
Document, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or LC Issuer shall have made any demand hereunder and although said Obligations, liabilities or claims,
or any of them, shall be contingent or unmatured. Each Lender and LC Issuer agrees to promptly notify the Borrower after any such set off and application, provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the
validity of such set off and application. 
 Section 11.04 Equalization. 
 (a) Equalization. If at any time any Lender receives any amount hereunder (whether by voluntary payment, by realization upon security, by the
exercise of the right of setoff or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action, by the enforcement of any right under the Loan Documents, or otherwise) that is applicable to the payment of the principal of, or interest on, the Loans (other
than Swing Loans), LC Participations, Swing Loan Participations or Fees (other than Fees that are intended to be paid solely to the Administrative Agent or an LC Issuer and amounts payable to a Lender under Article III), of a sum that with respect
to the related sum or sums received by other Lenders is in a greater proportion than the total of such Obligation then owed and due to such Lender bears to the total of such Obligation then owed and due to all of the Lenders immediately prior to
such receipt, then such Lender receiving such excess payment shall purchase for cash without recourse or warranty from the other Lenders an interest in the Obligations to such Lenders in such amount as shall result in a proportional
participation by all of the Lenders in such amount. 
 (b) Recovery of Amounts. If any amount paid to any Lender pursuant to subparts
(i) or (ii) above is recovered in whole or in part from such Lender, such original purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price restored ratably to the extent of the recovery. 
 (c) Consent of Borrower. The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any
Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the
amount of such participation.

Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt
requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement), provided that if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be

 Section 11.06 Successors and Assigns.

 (a) Successors and Assigns Generally. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the
parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that the Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of all the Lenders, provided,
further, that any assignment or participation by a Lender of any of its rights and obligations hereunder shall be effected in accordance with this Section 11.06. 
 (b) Participations. Each Lender may at any time grant participations in any of its rights hereunder or under any of the Notes to an Eligible Assignee, provided that in the case of any such participation,

 (i) the participant shall not have any rights under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, including rights of
consent, approval or waiver (the participant’s rights against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreement executed by such Lender in favor of the participant relating thereto), 
 (ii) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Commitments hereunder) shall remain
unchanged, 
 (iii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such
obligations, 
  

 86 

 (iv) such Lender shall remain the holder of the Obligations owing to it and of any Note
issued to it for all purposes of this Agreement, and 
 (v) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, and the other Lenders
shall continue to deal solely and directly with the selling Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, and all amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not
sold such participation, except that the participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Article III to the extent that such Lender would be entitled to such benefits if the participation had not been entered into or sold, 
 and, provided further, that no Lender shall transfer, grant or sell any participation under which the participant shall have rights to approve any amendment to or
waiver of this Agreement or any other Loan Document except to the extent such amendment or waiver would (x) extend the final scheduled maturity of the date of any of the Loans in which such participant is participating, or reduce the rate or
extend the time of payment of interest or Fees thereon (except in connection with a waiver of the applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates), or reduce the principal amount thereof, or increase such participant’s
participating interest in any Commitment over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default shall not constitute a change in the terms of any such Commitment), (y) release all or any
substantial portion of any collateral securing the Obligations, or release any guarantor from its guaranty of any of the Obligations, except strictly in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, or (z) consent to the assignment or
transfer by the Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement. 
 (c) Assignments by Lenders. 
 (i) Any Lender may assign all, or if less than all, a fixed portion, of its Loans, LC Participations, Swing Loan Participations and/or
Commitments and its rights and obligations hereunder to one or more Eligible Assignees, each of which shall become a party to this Agreement as a Lender by execution of an Assignment Agreement; provided, however, that 
 (A) except in the case of (x) an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Loans and/or Commitments or
(y) an assignment to another Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender, the aggregate amount of the Commitment so assigned (which for this purpose includes the Loans outstanding thereunder) shall not be
less than $7,500,000 (or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof); 
 (B) )at the time of any such assignment the
Lender Register shall be modified to reflect the Commitments of such new Lender and of the existing Lenders (and no assignment shall be effective hereunder unless recorded in the Lender Register as provided herein); 
 (C) upon surrender of the old Notes, if any, upon request of the new Lender, new Notes will be issued, at the Borrower’s expense, to
such new Lender and to the assigning Lender, to the extent needed to reflect the revised Commitments; and 
 (D) unless waived
by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall receive at the time of each such assignment, from the assigning or assignee Lender, the payment of a non-refundable assignment fee of $3,500. 
  

 87 

 (ii) To the extent of any assignment pursuant to this subpart (c), the assigning Lender
shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder with respect to its assigned Commitments. 
 (iii) At the time of each
assignment pursuant to this subpart (c), to a Person that is not already a Lender hereunder, the respective assignee Lender shall provide to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent the applicable Internal Revenue Service Forms (and any necessary
additional documentation) described in Section 3.03(b) or (c), as appropriate. 
 (iv) With respect to any Lender, the
transfer of any Commitment of such Lender and the rights to the principal of, and interest on, any Loan made pursuant to such Commitment shall not be effective until such transfer is recorded on the Lender Register maintained by the Administrative
Agent with respect to ownership of such Commitment and Loans and prior to such recordation all amounts owing to the transferor with respect to such Commitment and Loans shall remain owing to the transferor. The registration of assignment or transfer
of all or part of any Commitments and Loans shall be recorded by the Administrative Agent on the Lender Register only upon the acceptance by the Administrative Agent of a properly executed and delivered Assignment Agreement pursuant to this subpart
(c). 
 (v) Nothing in this Section shall prevent or prohibit (A) any Lender that is a bank, trust company or other
financial institution from pledging its Notes or Loans to a Federal Reserve Bank in support of borrowings made by such Lender from such Federal Reserve Bank, or (B) any Lender that is a trust, limited liability company, partnership or other
investment company from pledging its Notes or Loans to a trustee or agent for the benefit of holders of certificates or debt securities issued by it. No such pledge, or any assignment pursuant to or in lieu of an enforcement of such a pledge, shall
relieve the transferor Lender from its obligations hereunder. 
 (d) No SEC Registration or Blue Sky Compliance. Notwithstanding any
other provisions of this Section, no transfer or assignment of the interests or obligations of any Lender hereunder or any grant of participation therein shall be permitted if such transfer, assignment or grant would require the Borrower to file a
registration statement with the SEC or to qualify the Loans under the “Blue Sky” laws of any State. 
 (e) Representations of
Lenders. Each Lender initially party to this Agreement hereby represents, and each Person that becomes a Lender pursuant to an assignment permitted by this Section will, upon its becoming party to this Agreement, represents that it is a
commercial lender, other financial institution or other “accredited” investor (as defined in SEC Regulation D) that makes or acquires loans in the ordinary course of its business and that it will make or acquire Loans for its own account
in the ordinary course of such business; provided, however, that subject to the preceding Sections 11.06(b) and (c), the disposition of any promissory notes or other evidences of or interests in Indebtedness held by such Lender shall at all
times be within its exclusive control. 
 Section 11.07 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of the
Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document and no course of dealing between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor
shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. No notice
to or demand on the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to any other or further
action in any circumstances without notice or demand. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or any LC Issuance shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default 

  

 88 

 
or Event of Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any LC Issuer may have had notice or knowledge of such Default or Event of
Default at the time. The rights and remedies herein expressly provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies that the Administrative Agent or any Lender would otherwise have. 
 Section 11.08 Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial. 
 (a) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER AND THEREUNDER SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE

the Administrative Agent or any Lender to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or to commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against the Borrower and/or any of the Credit Parties in any other jurisdiction. 
 (b) The Borrower and the other Credit Parties each hereby irrevocably waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of
any of the aforesaid actions or proceedings arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document brought in the courts referred to in Section 11.08(a) above and hereby further irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead

 Section 11.15
Confidentiality. 
 (a) Each of the Administrative Agent, each LC Issuer and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the
Confidential Information, except that Confidential Information may be disclosed (1) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood
that the persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Confidential Information and instructed to keep such Confidential Information confidential), (2) to any direct or indirect contractual
counterparty in any Hedge Agreement (or to any such contractual counterparty’s professional advisor), so long as such contractual counterparty (or such professional advisor) agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section, (3) to the
extent requested by any regulatory authority, (4) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (5) to any other party to this Agreement, (6) to any other creditor of any Credit
Party that is a direct or intended beneficiary of any of the Loan Documents, (7) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or
any of the other Loan Documents or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (8) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to any assignee of or participant in any of its rights or
obligations under this Agreement, (9) with the consent of the Borrower, or (10) to the extent such Confidential Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section, or (ii) becomes
available to the Administrative Agent, any LC Issuer or any Lender on a non-confidential basis from a source other than a Credit Party and not otherwise in violation of this Section. 
 (b) As used in this Section, “Confidential Information” shall mean all information received from the Borrower relating to the Borrower
or its business, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any LC Issuer or any Lender on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower; provided, however, that, in the case of
information received from the Borrower after the Closing Date, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. 
 (c) Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Confidential Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to
maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. The Borrower hereby agrees that the failure of the Administrative Agent, any LC Issuer or any Lender to comply with the
provisions of this Section shall not relieve the Borrower, or any other Credit Party, of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. 
 Section 11.16 Limitations on Liability of the LC Issuers. The Borrower assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee of any Letter of Credit with respect to its use of such
Letters of Credit. Neither any LC Issuer nor any of its officers or directors shall be liable or responsible for: (a) the use that may be made of any Letter of Credit or any acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee in connection
therewith; (b) the validity, sufficiency or genuineness of documents, or of any endorsement thereon, even if such documents should prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, fraudulent or forged; (c) payment by an LC Issuer
against presentation of documents that do not comply with the terms of a Letter of Credit, including failure of any documents to 

  

 92 

 
bear any reference or adequate reference to such Letter of Credit; or (d) any other circumstances whatsoever in making or failing to make payment under
any Letter of Credit, except that the LC Obligor shall have a claim against an LC Issuer, and an LC Issuer shall be liable to such LC Obligor, to the extent of any direct, but not consequential, damages suffered by such LC Obligor that such
LC Obligor proves were caused by (i) such LC Issuer’s willful misconduct or gross negligence in determining whether documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or (ii) such LC
Issuer’s willful failure to make lawful payment under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it of documentation strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the
foregoing, an LC Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation. 
 Section 11.17 General Limitation of Liability. No claim may be made by any Credit Party, any Lender, the Administrative Agent, any LC Issuer or any other Person against the Administrative Agent, any LC Issuer, or any other
Lender or the Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, attorneys or agents of any of them for any damages other than actual compensatory damages in respect of any claim for breach of contract or any other theory of liability arising out of or
related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith; and the Borrower, each Lender, the Administrative Agent and each LC Issuer hereby, to the
fullest extent permitted under applicable law, waive, release and agree not to sue or counterclaim upon any such claim for any special, consequential or punitive damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in their
favor. 
 Section 11.18 No Duty. All attorneys, accountants, appraisers, consultants and other professional persons (including
the firms or other entities on behalf of which any such Person may act) retained by the Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents shall have the right to act exclusively in the interest of
the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and shall have no duty of disclosure, duty of loyalty, duty of care, or other duty or obligation of any type or nature whatsoever to the Borrower, to any of its Subsidiaries, or to any
other Person, with respect to any matters within the scope of such representation or related to their activities in connection with such representation. The Borrower agrees, on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, not to assert any claim or
counterclaim against any such persons with regard to such matters, all such claims and counterclaims, now existing or hereafter arising, whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseeable, being hereby waived, released and forever discharged.

 Section 11.19 Lenders and Agent Not Fiduciary to Borrower, etc. The relationship among the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, on
the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, each LC Issuer and the Lenders, on the other hand, is solely that of debtor and creditor, and the Administrative Agent, each LC Issuer and the Lenders have no fiduciary or other special relationship with
the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, and no term or provision of any Loan Document, no course of dealing, no written or oral communication, or other action, shall be construed so as to deem such relationship to be other than that of debtor and
creditor. 
 Section 11.20 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties herein shall survive
the making of Loans and all LC Issuances hereunder, the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Notes and the other documents the forms of which are attached as Exhibits hereto, the issue and delivery of the Notes, any disposition thereof by
any holder thereof, and any investigation made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any other holder of any of the Notes or on its behalf. All statements contained in any certificate or other document delivered to the Administrative Agent or
any Lender or any holder of any Notes by or on behalf of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant hereto or otherwise specifically for use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby shall constitute representations and
warranties by the Borrower hereunder, made as 

  

 93 

 
of the respective dates specified therein or, if no date is specified, as of the respective dates furnished to the Administrative Agent or any Lender.

 Section 11.21 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction
shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular
provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 Section 11.22 Independence
of Covenants. All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action, event, condition or circumstance is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would
otherwise be within the limitations or restrictions of, another covenant, shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or event, condition or circumstance exists. 
 Section 11.23 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any
Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts that are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively, the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate’”)
that may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof,
shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and
Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Base Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been
received by such Lender. 
 Section 11.24 Judgment Currency. If the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, obtains a
judgment or judgments against the Borrower or any other Credit Party in a Designated Foreign Currency, the obligations of the Borrower or such Credit Party in respect of any sum adjudged to be due to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders hereunder
or under the Notes (the “Judgment Amount”) shall be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent of the Judgment Amount in the Designated Foreign Currency, the Administrative
Agent, in accordance with normal banking procedures, may purchase Dollars with the Judgment Amount in such Designated Foreign Currency. If the amount of Dollars so purchased is less than the amount of Dollars that could have been purchased with the
Judgment Amount on the date or dates the Judgment Amount (excluding the portion of the Judgment Amount which has accrued as a result of the failure of the Borrower or any other Credit Party to pay the sum originally due hereunder or under the Notes
when it was originally due hereunder or under the Notes) was originally due and owing (the “Original Due Date”) to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders hereunder or under the Notes (the “Loss”), the Borrower and
the other Credit Parties each agrees as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, against the Loss, and if the amount of Dollars so purchased exceeds the
amount of Dollars that could have been purchased with the Judgment Amount on the Original Due Date, the Administrative Agent or such Lender agrees to remit such excess to the Borrower. 
  

 94 

 Section 11.25 USA Patriot Act. Each Lender subject to the USA Patriot Act hereby notifies the
Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will
allow such Lender to identify the Borrower in accordance with the USA Patriot Act.
