(iii)                               If amended or restated financial statements would change a previously calculated Margin, or if Wells Fargo determines that any financial statements have materially misstated Company’s financial condition, then Wells Fargo may, using the most accurate information available to it, recalculate the financial test or tests governing the Margin and retroactively reduce or increase the Margin from the date of receipt of such amended or restated financial statements and charge Company additional interest, which may be imposed on it from the beginning of the appropriate month to which the restated statements or recalculated financial tests relate or to the beginning of the month in which any Event of Default has occurred, as Wells Fargo in its sole discretion deems appropriate.

29.                               Representations and Warranties.  Company hereby represents and warrants to Wells Fargo as follows:

(b)                                 The execution, delivery and performance by Company of this Amendment and any other agreements or instruments required hereunder have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and do not (i) require any authorization, consent or approval by any governmental department, commission, board, bureau, agency or instrumentality, domestic or foreign, (ii) violate any provision of any law, rule or regulation or of any order, writ, injunction or decree presently in effect, having applicability to Company, or the Constituent Documents of Company, or (iii) result in a breach of or constitute a default under any indenture or loan or credit agreement or any other agreement, lease or instrument to which Company is a party or by which it or its properties may be bound or affected.

 

(c)                                  All of the representations and warranties contained in Exhibit D of the Credit Agreement, as updated and amended by this Amendment, are correct on and as of the date hereof as though made on and as of such date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties relate solely to an earlier date.

 

30.                               References; Affirmation.  All references in the Credit Agreement to “this Agreement” shall be deemed to refer to the Credit Agreement as amended hereby; and any and all references in the Loan Documents to the Credit Agreement shall be deemed to refer to the Credit Agreement as amended hereby.  The existing Loan Documents, except as amended by this Amendment or, as applicable, as amended (or amended and restated) by a separate agreement or instrument in connection herewith, shall remain in full force and effect, and each of them is hereby ratified and confirmed by Company and Wells Fargo.  Company and Wells Fargo intend that this Amendment shall not in any manner (a) constitute the refinancing, refunding, payment or extinguishment of the Indebtedness evidenced by the existing Loan Documents; (b) be deemed to evidence a novation of the outstanding balance of the Indebtedness; or (c) affect, replace, impair, or extinguish the creation, attachment, perfection or priority of the Liens on the Collateral granted pursuant to the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents evidencing, governing or creating a Lien on the Collateral.  Company hereby ratifies and reaffirms any and all grants of the Liens to Wells Fargo on the Collateral as security for the Indebtedness, and acknowledges and confirms that the grants of the Liens to Wells Fargo on the Collateral:  (i) represent continuing Liens on all of the Collateral, (ii) secure all of the Indebtedness, and (iii) represent valid first Liens on all of the Collateral, subject only to the

 

20

 

Permitted Liens.  The Credit Agreement, as amended by this Amendment, will be construed as one agreement.

 

31.                               No Waiver.  The execution of this Amendment and the acceptance of all other agreements and instruments related hereto shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any Default or Event of Default under the Credit Agreement or a waiver of any breach, default or event of default under any Loan Document or other document held by Wells Fargo, whether or not known to Wells Fargo and whether or not existing on the date of this Amendment.

 

32.                               Release.  Company hereby absolutely and unconditionally releases and forever discharges Wells Fargo, and any and all participants, parent entities, subsidiary entities, affiliated entities, insurers, indemnitors, successors and assigns thereof, together with all of the present and former directors, officers, agents, attorneys and employees of any of the foregoing, from any and all claims, demands or causes of action of any kind, nature or description, whether arising in law or equity or upon contract or tort or under any state or federal law or otherwise, which Company has had, now has or has made claim to have against any such Person for or by reason of any act, omission, matter, cause or thing whatsoever arising from the beginning of time to and including the date of this Amendment, whether such claims, demands and causes of action are matured or unmatured or known or unknown.

 

33.                               Costs and Expenses.  Company hereby reaffirms its agreement under the Credit Agreement to pay or reimburse Wells Fargo on demand for all costs and expenses incurred by Wells Fargo in connection with the Loan Documents, including without limitation all reasonable fees and disbursements of legal counsel.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Company specifically agrees to pay all fees and disbursements of counsel to Wells Fargo for the services performed by such counsel in connection with the preparation of this Amendment and the documents and instruments incidental hereto.  Company hereby agrees that Wells Fargo may, at any time or from time to time in its sole discretion and without further authorization by Company, make a loan to Company under the Credit Agreement, or apply the proceeds of any loan, for the purpose of paying any such fees, disbursements, costs and expenses.

 

34.                               Captions and Headings.  The titles, captions and headings in this Amendment are for the purposes of reference only and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Amendment.

 

35.                               Miscellaneous.  This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one and the same agreement.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Amendment by telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission shall be equally as effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Amendment.  Any party delivering an executed counterpart of this Amendment by telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission also shall deliver an original executed counterpart of this Amendment but the failure to deliver an original executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of this Amendment.

 1.03 Accounting Terms. 

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all accounting terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in
conformity with GAAP. Financial statements required to be delivered by the Borrower to Lenders pursuant to Section 6.01 shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP as in effect at the time of such preparation. Calculations in connection
with the definitions, covenants and other provisions hereof shall be made in accordance with GAAP as in effect from time to time. In addition, for purposes of this Agreement, all references to codified accounting standards specifically named herein

 1.05 Times of Day. Unless otherwise specified, all references herein to times of day shall
be references to Eastern time (daylight or standard, as applicable). 
 1.06 Timing of Payment or Performance. When the payment of
any obligation or the performance of any covenant, duty or obligation is stated to be due or performance required on a day which is not a Business Day, the date of such payment (other than as specifically provided in Section 2.11 or as
described in the definition of Interest Period) or performance shall extend to the immediately succeeding Business Day. 
 1.07 Currency
Equivalents Generally. Any amount specified in this Agreement (other than in Articles II, IX and X) or any of the other Loan Documents to be in Dollars shall also include the equivalent of such amount in any currency other than Dollars, such
equivalent amount to be determined at the rate of exchange quoted by the Administrative Agent at the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding any date of determination thereof, to prime banks in New York, New York for the spot
purchase in the New York foreign exchange market of such amount in Dollars with such other currency. 
 ARTICLE II 

THE COMMITMENTS AND CREDIT EXTENSIONS 

2.01 The Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender severally agrees to make a single loan in Dollars
(individually a “Tranche 5 Term Loan”; and collectively, the “Tranche 5 Term Loans”) to the Borrower on the Closing Date in an amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment. The Borrowing
under this Section 2.01 shall consist of Tranche 5 Term Loans made simultaneously by the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments. Amounts borrowed under this Section 2.01 or otherwise pursuant to this
Agreement and subsequently repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed. For the avoidance of doubt, Loans shall be required to be maintained by the Borrower at a Eurodollar Rate, as further provided herein. 

2.02 Borrowings and Continuations of Loans. 

(a) Each Borrowing and each continuation of a Loan shall be made upon the Borrower’s irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent. Each
such notice must be in writing and must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) three (3) Business Days prior to the requested date of any Borrowing (or such later time as the Administrative Agent may
agree) or continuation; provided, however, that if the Borrower wishes to request an Interest Period other than one, two, three or six months in duration as provided in the definition of “Interest Period,” the applicable
notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) four (4) Business Days prior to the requested date of such Borrowing or continuation, whereupon the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to
the Lenders of such request and determine whether the requested Interest Period is acceptable to all of them. Not later than 10:00 a.m. (New York time) three Business Days before the requested date of such Borrowing or continuation, the
Administrative Agent 

  
 -16- 

 
shall notify the Borrower whether or not the requested Interest Period has been consented to by all the Lenders. Each notice by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.02(a) shall be
delivered by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent in the form of a written Committed Loan Notice, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower. Each Committed Loan Notice shall specify (i) whether the Borrower
is requesting a Borrowing or a continuation, (ii) the requested date of the Borrowing or continuation, as the case may be (which shall be a Business Day), (iii) the principal amount of Loans to be borrowed or continued and (iv) the
duration of the Interest Period with respect thereto. If the Borrower fails to give a timely notice requesting a continuation, then the applicable Loans shall be continued with an Interest Period of one month’s duration on the last day of such
then-expiring Interest Period. If the Borrower requests a Borrowing of or continuation in any such Committed Loan Notice, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one (1) month. 

(b) Following receipt of a Committed Loan Notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each applicable Lender of the amount of its
ratable share of the Loans, and if no timely notice of a continuation is provided by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall notify each applicable Lender of the details of any automatic continuation described in Section 2.02(a). In
the case of a Borrowing, each applicable Lender shall make the amount of its Loan available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified
in the applicable Committed Loan Notice. 
 (c) Except as otherwise provided herein, a Loan may be continued only on the last day of an
Interest Period for such Loan unless the Borrower pays the amount due under Section 3.05 in connection therewith. 
 (d) The
Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period upon determination of such interest rate. The determination of the Eurodollar Rate by the Administrative Agent shall be
conclusive in the absence of manifest error. 
 (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all Loans hereunder shall at
all times be part of the same Interest Period unless the Administrative Agent shall otherwise agree. Upon an Escrow Assumption, all Tranche 5 Term Loans that are thereafter outstanding under the CommScope Credit Agreement, in accordance with the
terms thereof, shall have an Interest Period that is the same as the Interest Period applicable immediately prior to the Escrow Assumption (and thus such period shall end in respect of such Tranche 5 Term Loans under the CommScope Credit Agreement
on the same day as the day on which such Interest Period was scheduled to end if the Escrow Assumption had not occurred). 
 (f) The failure
of any Lender to make the Loan to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Loan on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of
any other Lender to make the Loan to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing. 
 2.03 [Reserved].

 2.04 [Reserved]. 

2.05 Prepayments. 
 (a)
Optional. 
 (i) The Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay Loans
in whole or in part at the Applicable Prepayment Price (subject to Section 2.05(a)(ii) below); provided, that (1) such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m. (New York time) three
(3) Business Days (or such later time as the Administrative Agent may agree) prior to any date of prepayment; and (2) any prepayment shall be in a principal amount of $3,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, or if
less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the Interest Period(s) of such Loans. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each applicable Lender of its
receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s ratable portion of such prepayment (based on such Lender’s ratable share of the Term Loan Facility). If such notice is given by the Borrower, the Borrower shall make such
prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Any prepayment of a Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued interest thereon, together with any additional amounts required pursuant
Section 3.05. Each prepayment of outstanding Loans under the Term Loan Facility pursuant to this Section 2.05(a) shall be applied to the applicable Lenders on a pro rata basis. If requested by the Borrower, the Administrative
Agent shall deliver the notice to the Escrow Agent contemplated by Section 3.6 of the Escrow Agreement in connection therewith with respect to an amount of funds sufficient to fund the prepayment under this Section 2.05(a). 

(ii) If the Borrower makes a prepayment of the entire then-outstanding principal amount of Tranche 5 Term Loans pursuant to
Section 2.05(a)(i) (or if applicable, makes an amendment with respect to such entire then-outstanding principal amount), in each case within 180 days after the Closing Date in connection with any Repricing Transaction, the Borrower shall
pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of the applicable Lenders (including each Lender that withholds its consent to such Repricing Transaction and is replaced as a Non-Consenting Lender under Section 3.07), a
prepayment premium (in the case of a prepayment) in an amount such that the amount such Lender receives from the repayment of principal and prepayment premium is 101% of the outstanding par principal amount of its repaid Tranche 5 Term Loans (and in
the case of an amendment, a premium in an amount such that each applicable Lender (including each Lender that withholds its consent to such Repricing Transaction and is replaced as a Non-Consenting Lender under Section 3.07) receives the
difference between the amount it would have received had its Tranche 5 Term Loans been repaid at 101% of the outstanding par principal amount thereof and the amount it would have received had its Tranche 5 Term Loans been voluntarily repaid
hereunder without any such premium). 
 (iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Borrower may rescind
any notice of prepayment under Section 2.05(a)(i) if such prepayment would have resulted from a refinancing of the Term Loan Facility, which refinancing shall not be consummated or shall otherwise be delayed. 

 

  
 -18- 

 (b) Mandatory. In the event that the proceeds from the Escrow Account are distributed to
the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 3.3 or 3.5 of the Escrow Agreement, the Tranche 5 Term Loans and all accrued interest thereon shall be immediately due and payable and the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Borrower, shall apply
all funds so received from the Escrow Account to repay in full all outstanding Tranche 5 Term Loans at the Applicable Prepayment Price and accrued interest thereon and other Obligations (other than contingent indemnification Obligations) and, to the
extent there are any remaining amounts after payment in full of all such Obligations, shall promptly remit such remaining amounts to the Borrower. To the extent that the amount received by the Administrative Agent from the Escrow Agent is
insufficient to pay all Obligations then outstanding, the Borrower shall remain liable for any deficiency. If a Tranche 5 Term Loan is prepaid on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower shall also pay
any amounts owing pursuant to Section 3.05. 
 2.06 Termination of Commitments. The aggregate Commitments shall be
automatically and permanently reduced to zero on the date of, and after giving effect to, the Borrowing on the Closing Date. 
 2.07
Repayment of Term Loans. 
 (a) The Tranche 5 Term Loans of each Lender shall mature in installments following the Escrow Assumption
(each due on the last day of each calendar quarter, except for the last such installment), each of which shall be in an amount equal to (i) in the case of all such installments due prior to the Tranche 5 Maturity Date, 0.25% of the aggregate
outstanding principal amount of the Tranche 5 Term Loans upon the Escrow Assumption and (ii) in the case of the last such installment (which shall be due on the Tranche 5 Maturity Date), the remaining principal balance of such Tranche 5 Term
Loans outstanding on such date. 
 (b) If an Escrow Assumption occurs, (i) the Borrower shall have substantially concurrently therewith
merged with and into the Parent with Parent surviving such merger and assuming by operation of law or otherwise all obligations in respect of the Tranche 5 Term Loans, as borrower under the CommScope Credit Agreement and (ii) all Tranche 5 Term
Loans and all accrued interest thereon shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding under this Agreement but shall thereafter be outstanding under the CommScope Credit Agreement, in accordance with the terms thereof and this Agreement shall no longer
apply to such Loans. 
 2.08 Interest. 

(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.07(b) and Section 2.08(b), each Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding
principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Rate. 
 (b) Upon the occurrence and during
the continuation of any Default under Section 8.01(a), (f) or (g), the Borrower shall pay interest on the principal amount of all overdue Obligations hereunder (or, upon the occurrence of any Default under
Section 8.01(f) or (g), all Obligations hereunder) at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws. Accrued and unpaid interest on past due
amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand. 

  
 -19- 

 (c) Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date
applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified herein. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any
Debtor Relief Law. 
 2.09 Computation of Interest and Fees; Retroactive Adjustments of Applicable Rate. 

All computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a three hundred and sixty (360) day year and actual days elapsed
(which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a three hundred and sixty-five (365) day year). Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue
on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

 2.10 Evidence of Indebtedness. 

(a) The Loans made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and evidenced by one or more
entries in the Register maintained by the Administrative Agent, acting solely for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 5f.103 1(c), as a non-fiduciary agent for the Borrower, in each case in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or
records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be prima facie evidence absent manifest error of the amount of the Loans made by the Lenders to the Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record
or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit the obligation of the Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the
accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent,
the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a Tranche 5 Term Note payable to the order of such Lender, which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender
may attach schedules to its Tranche 5 Term Note and endorse thereon the date, amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto. 

(b) [Reserved]. 
 (c) Entries
made in good faith by the Administrative Agent in the Register pursuant to Section 2.10(a), and by each Lender in its account or accounts pursuant to Section 2.10(a), shall be prima facie evidence of the amount of
principal and interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to, in the case of the Register, each Lender and, in the case of such account or accounts, such Lender, under this Agreement and the other Loan

  
 -20- 

 
Documents, absent manifest error; provided, that the failure of the Administrative Agent or such Lender to make an entry, or any finding that an entry is incorrect, in the Register or such
account or accounts shall not limit the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
 2.11 Payments
Generally; Administrative Agent’s Clawback. 
 (a) General. All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made without
condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to
which such payment is owed, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 12:00 p.m. on the date specified herein. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its ratable
share in respect of the Term Loan Facility (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after 12:00
p.m. shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by the Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the
next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Loans to be
made in the next succeeding calendar month, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. 
 (b) Payments by
Borrower; Presumptions by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that
the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such
event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender, in immediately available funds with interest
thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate reasonably determined by the Administrative
Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. 
 A notice of the Administrative Agent to the Borrower with
respect to any amount owing under this Section 2.11(b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. 
 (c) Failure to Satisfy
Conditions Precedent. If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to the Borrower
by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Loan set forth in Article IV are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received
from such Lender) to such Lender on demand, without interest. 

  
 -21- 

 (d) Obligations of the Lenders Several. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make
Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 9.07 are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan or to fund any such participation or to make any payment under Section 9.07 on any date required
hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan or, to purchase its participation or to make its payment
under Section 9.07. 
 (e) Funding Source. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for
any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner. 

(f) Insufficient Funds. If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all
amounts of principal, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, toward 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 (ii) second, toward payment of principal then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such parties 

(g) Unallocated Funds. If the Administrative Agent receives funds for application to the Obligations of the Borrower under or in
respect of the Loan Documents under circumstances for which the Loan Documents do not specify the manner in which such funds are to be applied, the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, elect to distribute such funds to each of
the Lenders in accordance with such Lender’s ratable share of the sum of the Outstanding Amount of all Loans outstanding at such time and, in repayment or prepayment of such of the outstanding Loans or other Obligations then owing to such
Lender. 
 2.12 Sharing of Payments. If, other than as expressly provided elsewhere herein, any Lender shall obtain on account of the
Loans made by it any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of setoff, or otherwise) in excess of its ratable share (or other share contemplated hereunder) thereof, such Lender shall immediately (a) notify
the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase from the other Lenders of the same class such participations in the Loans of the same class made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment
in respect of such Loans or such participations, as the case may be, pro rata with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender under any of the
circumstances described in Section 10.06 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the purchasing Lender in its discretion), such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing
Lender the purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so
recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered, without further interest thereon. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a
participation from another Lender may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of 

  
 -22- 

 
setoff, but subject to Section 10.09) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. The
Administrative Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased under this Section 2.12 and will in each case notify the Lenders following any such purchases or
repayments. Each Lender that purchases a participation pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall from and after such purchase have the right to give all notices, requests, demands, directions and other communications under this Agreement with respect
to the portion of the Obligations purchased to the same extent as though the purchasing Lender were the original owner of the Obligations purchased. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to the
assignments and participations described in Section 10.07. 
 ARTICLE III 

TAXES, INCREASED COSTS PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY 

3.01 Taxes. 
 (a) All
sums payable by the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document to any Lender or Administrative Agent shall (except to the extent required by law) be paid free and clear of, and without any deduction or withholding on account of, any Taxes.

 (b) If the Borrower or any other applicable withholding agent is required by law to make any deduction or withholding on account of any
Non-Excluded Tax or Other Taxes from any sum paid or payable by the Borrower to any Lender or Administrative Agent under any of the Loan Documents: (i) the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any such requirement or any change in
any such requirement as soon as the Borrower becomes aware of it; (ii) the Borrower or withholding agent shall make such deduction or withholding and pay to the relevant Governmental Authority any such Non-Excluded Tax or Other Tax before the
date on which penalties attach thereto, such payment to be made (if the liability to pay is imposed on the Borrower) for its own account or (if that liability is imposed on the Lender or Administrative Agent) on behalf of and in the name of the
Lender or Administrative Agent (as applicable); (iii) the sum payable to such Lender or Administrative Agent (as applicable) shall be increased by the Borrower to the extent necessary to ensure that, after the making of any required deduction
or withholding (including any deductions or withholdings attributable to any payments required to be made under this Section 3.01), the Lender or the Administrative Agent (as applicable), receives on the due date a net sum equal to what it
would have received had no such deduction or withholding been required or made; and (iv) within thirty days after paying any sum from which it is required by Law to make any deduction or withholding, and within thirty days after the due date of
payment of any Tax which it is required by clause (ii) above to pay, the Borrower making such payments shall deliver to the Administrative Agent evidence reasonably satisfactory to the other affected parties of such deduction or withholding and
of the remittance thereof to the relevant Governmental Authority. 
 (c) Each Lender shall, at such times as are reasonably requested by the
Borrower or the Administrative Agent, provide the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with any documentation prescribed by Laws or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent certifying as to any entitlement of such Lender to
an exemption from, or 

  
 -23- 

 
reduction in, withholding Tax with respect to any payments to be made to such Lender under any Loan Document. Each such Lender shall, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders
such documentation (including any specific documentation required below in this Section 3.01(c)) obsolete, expired or inaccurate in any material respect, deliver promptly to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent updated or other appropriate
documentation (including any new documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of its inability to do so. 

Without limiting the foregoing: 

(1) Each US Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or before the date on which it becomes a party
to this Agreement two properly completed and duly signed original copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding. 

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

(A) two properly completed and duly signed original copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or any successor forms), as
applicable, claiming eligibility for the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party, and such other documentation as required under the Code, 

(B) two properly completed and duly signed original copies of IRS Form W-8ECI (or any successor forms), 

(C) in the case of a Non-US Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 871(h) or
Section 881(c) of the Code, (A) two properly completed and duly signed certificates substantially in the form of Exhibit E (any such certificate, a “United States Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (B) two properly
completed and duly signed original copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or any successor forms), as applicable, 
 (D) to
the extent a Non-US Lender is not the beneficial owner (for example, where the Non-US Lender is a partnership or a participating Lender), IRS Form W-8IMY (or any successor forms) of the Non-US Lender, accompanied by a Form W-8ECI, W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E,
United States Tax Compliance Certificate, Form W-9, Form W-8IMY or any other required information (or any successor forms) from each beneficial owner that would be required under this Section 3.01(c) if such beneficial owner were a Lender, as
applicable (provided that, if one or more beneficial owners are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, the United States Tax Compliance Certificate may be provided by such Non-US Lender on behalf of such beneficial owner), or 

(E) two properly completed and duly signed original copies of any other form prescribed by applicable U.S. federal income tax
laws (including the 

  
 -24- 

 
Treasury Regulations) as a basis for claiming a complete exemption from, or a reduction in, United States federal withholding tax on any payments to such Lender under the Loan Documents. 

(3) If a payment made to the Administrative Agent or a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal
withholding tax imposed by FATCA if the Administrative Agent or such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of those Sections (including those contained in Sections 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable),
the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall deliver to Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation
prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine whether the Administrative Agent or such Lender has or has not complied with the Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s obligations under such Sections
and, if necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 3.01(c)(3), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. 

(4) On or before the date the Administrative Agent (or any successor or replacement Administrative Agent) becomes the
Administrative Agent hereunder, it shall deliver to Borrower, to the extent it is legally able to do so, two duly executed copies of either (i) Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or (ii) Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY certifying that
it is a “U.S. branch” of a foreign bank and evidencing its agreement with the Borrower to be treated as a U.S. person with respect to payments made to it by the Borrower. 

Notwithstanding any other provision of this clause (c), a Lender shall not be required to deliver any form that such Lender is not legally
eligible to deliver. 
 (d) In addition to the payments by the Borrower required by Section 3.01(b), the Borrower shall pay any Other
Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 
 (e) The Borrower shall indemnify a Lender or
Administrative Agent (each a “Tax Indemnitee”), within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Non-Excluded Taxes paid or payable by such Tax Indemnitee on or attributable to any payment under or with
respect to any Loan Document, and any Other Taxes payable by such Tax Indemnitee (including Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes imposed on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 3.01), whether or not such Taxes were correctly or
legally imposed or asserted by the Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability prepared in good faith and delivered by the Tax Indemnitee or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of
another Tax Indemnitee, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

  
 -25- 

 (f) If and to the extent that a Tax Indemnitee, in its sole discretion (exercised in good faith),
determines that it has received a refund of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes in respect of which it has received additional payments under this Section 3.01, then such Tax Indemnitee shall pay to the Borrower the amount of such refund, net
of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Tax Indemnitee (including any Taxes imposed with respect to such refund), and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided
that the Borrower, upon the request of the Tax Indemnitee, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Tax Indemnitee (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Tax Indemnitee if the Tax
Indemnitee is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This subsection shall not be construed to require a Tax Indemnitee to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems
confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person. 
 (g) In the event that the Borrower makes an indemnification payment to a Tax
Indemnitee with respect to Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes pursuant to subsection (e) of this Section 3.01 or the Borrower is required to repay to a Tax Indemnitee an amount in respect of a refund of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes
previously paid over to the Borrower pursuant to subsection (f) of this Section 3.01, such Tax Indemnitee shall reasonably cooperate with all reasonable requests of the Borrower, at the sole expense of the Borrower, if (i) in the
reasonable judgment of the Tax Indemnitee such cooperation shall not subject such Tax Indemnitee, as the case may be, to any unreimbursed third party cost or expense or otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Tax Indemnitee and
(ii) based on advice of the Borrower’s independent accountants or external legal counsel, there is a reasonable basis for the Borrower to contest with the applicable Governmental Authority the imposition of such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other
Taxes or the repayment of such refund. Any resulting refund shall be governed by Section 3.01(f). This subsection shall not be construed to require a Tax Indemnitee to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its
Taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person. 
 3.02 [Reserved]. 

3.03 Market Disruption; Inability to Determine Rates. If the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders determine that for any reason
in connection with any request for a Loan or continuation thereof that (a) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank eurodollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Loan, (b) adequate
and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Loan, or (c) the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Loan does not
adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, any continuation of a Loan shall be ineffective and such Borrower shall be
maintained at a rate determined in a customary manner in good faith by the Administrative Agent, until the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. 

  
 -26- 

 3.04 Increased Cost and Reduced Return; Capital Adequacy. 

(a) If any Lender reasonably determines that as a result of the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any Law, in each
case after the Closing Date, or such Lender’s compliance therewith, there shall be any increase in the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any Loan the interest on which is determined by reference to the
Eurodollar Rate, or a reduction in the amount received or receivable by such Lender in connection with any of the foregoing (excluding for purposes of this Section 3.04(a) any such increased costs or reduction in amount resulting from
(i) any increase in Tax or changes in the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof (other than any Excluded Tax or any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes indemnified under Section 3.01) with respect to this Agreement
or any of the other Loan Documents or any of its obligations hereunder or thereunder or any payments to such Lender (or its applicable Lending Office) of principal, interest, fees or any other amount payable hereunder, and (ii) reserve
requirements reflected in the Eurodollar Rate), then from time to time within fifteen (15) days after demand of such Lender setting forth in reasonable detail such increased costs (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent given in
accordance with Section 3.06), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction. 

(b) If any Lender determines that the introduction of any Law regarding capital adequacy or liquidity or any change therein or in the
interpretation thereof, in each case after the Closing Date, or compliance by such Lender (or its Lending Office) therewith, has the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender as a
consequence of such Lender’s obligations hereunder (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity and such Lender’s desired return on capital), then from time to time within fifteen (15) days
after demand of such Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the charge and the calculation of such reduced rate of return (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent given in accordance with Section 3.06), the Borrower
shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction within ten (10) days after receipt of demand therefor. 

(c) The Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to Section 3.04(a) or (b) for any such
increased cost or reduction incurred more than one hundred and eighty (180) days prior to the date that such Lender demands, or notifies the Borrower of its intention to demand, compensation therefor; provided, that, if the circumstance
giving rise to such increased cost or reduction is retroactive, then such 180 day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. 

(d) If any Lender requests compensation under this Section 3.04, then such Lender will, if requested by the Borrower and at the
Borrower’s expense, use commercially reasonable efforts to designate another Lending Office for any Loan affected by such event; provided that such efforts would not, in the judgment of such Lender, be inconsistent with the internal
policies of, or otherwise be disadvantageous in any material legal, economic or regulatory respect to such Lender or its Lending Office. The provisions of this clause (d) shall not affect or postpone any Obligations of the Borrower or
rights of such Lender pursuant to Section 3.04(a), (b) or (c). 

  
 -27- 

 (e) For purposes of this Section 3.04, (i) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and
Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, regulations, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (ii) all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives promulgated by the Bank for International
Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall, in each case, be deemed to have gone into effect after
the Closing Date, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued. 
 3.05 Funding Losses. Upon written demand of any Lender (with
a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating such compensation, the Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or
expense incurred by it as a result of: 
 (a) any continuation, payment or prepayment of any Loan on a day other than the last day of the
Interest Period for such Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise); 
 (b) any failure by the
Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow or continue any Loan on the date or in the amount notified by the Borrower; or 

(c) any mandatory assignment of such Lender’s Loans pursuant to Section 3.07 on a day other than the last day of the Interest
Period for such Loans; 
 including any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from
fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained, but excluding any such loss for which no reasonable means of calculation exist, as set forth in Section 3.03. 

For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to the Lenders under this Section 3.05, each Lender shall be deemed to
have funded each Loan made by it at the Eurodollar Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Loan was in fact so
funded. 
 3.06 Matters Applicable to All Requests for Compensation. 

(a) A certificate of the Administrative Agent or any Lender claiming compensation under this Article III and setting forth the
additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, the Administrative Agent or such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. 

(b) With respect to any Lender’s claim for compensation under Section 3.02, 3.03 or 3.04, the Borrower shall
not be required to compensate such Lender for any amount incurred more than one hundred and eighty (180) days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the event that gives rise to such claim; provided, that, if the
circumstance giving rise to such claim is retroactive, then such 180 day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

 3.07 Replacement of Lenders Under Certain Circumstances. 

(a) If at any time (i) the Borrower becomes obligated to pay additional amounts or indemnity payments described in
Section 3.01 or 3.04 as a result of any condition described in such Sections or any Lender ceases to make Loans as a result of any condition described in Section 3.03 or (ii) any Lender becomes a
“Non-Consenting Lender” (as defined below in this Section 3.07), then the Borrower may, on ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and such Lender, replace such Lender by causing such
Lender to (and such Lender shall be obligated to) assign at the Applicable Prepayment Price, pursuant to Section 10.07(b) (with the assignment fee to be paid by the Borrower in such instance) all of its rights and obligations under this
Agreement to one or more Eligible Assignees; provided, that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to the Borrower to find a replacement Lender or other such Person. 

(b) Any Lender being replaced pursuant to Section 3.07(a) above shall (i) execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption
with respect to such Lender’s Commitment and outstanding Loans, and (ii) deliver any Tranche 5 Term Notes evidencing such Loans to the Borrower or Administrative Agent. Pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption, (A) the assignee
Lender shall acquire all or a portion, as the case may be, of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and outstanding Loans, (B) all obligations of the Borrower owing to the assigning Lender relating to the Loans and participations (for the
avoidance of doubt at the Applicable Prepayment Price with respect to principal) so assigned shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender to such assigning Lender concurrently with such assignment and assumption and (C) upon such payment and,
if so requested by the assignee Lender, delivery to the assignee Lender of the appropriate Tranche 5 Term Note(s) executed by the Borrower, the assignee Lender shall become a Lender hereunder and the assigning Lender shall cease to constitute a
Lender hereunder with respect to such assigned Loans, Commitments and participations, except with respect to indemnification provisions under this Agreement, which shall survive as to such assigning Lender. In connection with any such replacement,
if any such Non-Consenting Lender does not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly executed Assignment and Assumption reflecting such replacement within five (5) Business Days of the date on which the assignee Lender executes and
delivers such Assignment and Assumption to such Non-Consenting Lender, then such Non-Consenting Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Assumption without any action on the part of the Non-Consenting Lender. In
connection with the replacement of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.07(a) above, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such amounts as may be required pursuant to Section 3.05. 

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, the Lender that acts as the Administrative Agent may not be replaced hereunder
except in accordance with the terms of Section 9.09. 
 (d) In the event that (i) the Borrower or the Administrative Agent
has requested the Lenders to consent to a departure or waiver of any provisions of the Loan 

  
 -29- 

 
Documents or to agree to any amendment thereto, (ii) the consent, waiver or amendment in question requires the agreement of all affected Lenders in accordance with the terms of
Section 10.01 or all the Lenders with respect to a certain class of the Loans and (iii) the Required Lenders have agreed to such consent, waiver or amendment, then any Lender who does not agree to such consent, waiver or amendment
shall be deemed a “Non-Consenting Lender.” 
 3.08 Survival. All of the Borrower’s
obligations under this Article III shall survive termination of the Commitments and repayment of all other Obligations hereunder and resignation of the Administrative Agent. 

ARTICLE IV

all financial statements, notices and documents provided by Parent to the lenders under the CommScope Credit Agreement pursuant to, and in accordance

 (b)
promptly, such additional information regarding the business, legal, financial or corporate affairs of the Borrower, or compliance with the terms of the Loan Documents, as the Administrative Agent or any Lender may from time to time reasonably
request. 
 Documents required to be delivered pursuant to Section 6.01(a) or (b) or Section 6.02(d) of
the CommScope Credit Agreement (to the extent any such documents are included in materials otherwise filed with the SEC) may be delivered electronically and if so delivered, shall be deemed to have been delivered on the date (i) on which the

 The Borrower
hereby acknowledges that (a) the Administrative Agent will make available to the Lenders materials and/or information provided by or on behalf of the Borrower hereunder (collectively, “Borrower Materials”) by posting the

the Borrower Materials that may be distributed to the Public Lenders and that (w) all such Borrower Materials shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall
appear prominently on the first page thereof; (x) by marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” the Borrower shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, and the Lenders to treat such Borrower Materials as not
containing any material non-public information (although it may be sensitive and proprietary) with respect to the Borrower or its securities for purposes of United States Federal and state securities laws (provided, however, that to
the extent such Borrower Materials constitute Information, they shall be treated as set forth in Section 10.07); (y) all Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the

referred to therein and stating what action the Borrower has taken and proposes to take with respect thereto. Each notice pursuant to Section 6.03(a) shall describe with particularity any and all provisions of this Agreement and any
other Loan Document that have been breached. 
 6.04 Payment of Taxes. Except as would not, individually or in the aggregate,
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, the Borrower will pay all Taxes imposed upon it or any of its properties or assets or in respect of any of its income, businesses or franchises before any penalty or fine accrues thereon;
provided, no such Tax or claim need be paid if it is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings promptly instituted and diligently conducted, so long as adequate reserve or other appropriate provision, if any, as shall be required in
conformity with GAAP shall have been made therefor. 
 6.05 Preservation of Existence, Etc. (a) Preserve, renew and maintain in full
force and effect its legal existence under the Laws of the jurisdiction of its organization and (b) take all reasonable action to maintain all material rights, privileges (including its good standing), permits, licenses and franchises necessary
or desirable in the normal conduct of its business, except, in connection with the Escrow Assumption, or, in the case of clause (b), as such failure would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

6.07 [Reserved]. 
 6.08
Compliance with Laws. Comply in all material respects with all material Requirements of Laws applicable to it or to its business or property, except in such instances in which such Requirement of Law is being contested in good faith by

(b) maintain such books of record and account in material conformity with all applicable requirements of any Governmental Authority having regulatory jurisdiction over the Borrower. 

6.10 Inspection Rights. Permit representatives of the Administrative Agent and, during the continuance of an Event of Default, of each
Lender to examine its corporate, financial and operating records, and make copies thereof or abstracts therefrom, and to discuss its affairs, finances and accounts with its directors, officers, and independent public accountants (provided that the
Borrower shall be given reasonable opportunity to participate in any discussions with independent public accountants), all at the expense of the Borrower and at such reasonable times during normal business hours and as often as may be reasonably
desired, upon reasonable advance notice to the Borrower; provided, however, that (i) inspections by Lenders pursuant to this Section 6.10 shall be coordinated through the Administrative Agent, (ii) if no Default exists, the
Administrative Agent and each Lender may visit no more than one time during any calendar year, and (iii) when an Event of Default exists the Administrative Agent or any Lender (or any of their respective representatives) may do any of the
foregoing at the expense of the Borrower at any time during normal business hours and without advance notice. 
 6.11 Use of
Proceeds. Distribute the proceeds of the Tranche 5 Term Loans, if released to the Borrower in accordance with the Escrow Agreement, to Parent and use such proceeds to fund a portion of the consideration and costs in connection with the TE
Acquisition and the transactions related thereto. The Borrower will not request the Borrowing, and the Borrower shall not use, and shall procure that its directors, officers, employees and agents shall not use, the proceeds of the Borrowing
(A) in furtherance of an offer, payment, promise to pay, or authorization of the payment or giving of money, or anything else of value, to any Person in violation of any Anti-Corruption Laws, (B) for the purpose of funding, financing or
facilitating any activities, business or transaction of or with any Sanctioned Person, or in any Sanctioned Country, or (C) in any manner that would result in the violation of any Sanctions applicable to any party hereto.

 (d) Representations and Warranties. Any representation, warranty, certification or statement of fact made or deemed made by or on

or warranty is already qualified by materiality) when made or deemed made; or 
 (e) Cross Default. (i) The Borrower
(A) fails to make any payment beyond the applicable grace period with respect thereto, if any (whether by scheduled maturity, required prepayment, acceleration, demand, or otherwise) in respect of any Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness
hereunder) having an aggregate outstanding principal amount of more than the Threshold Amount, or (B) fails to observe or perform any other agreement or condition relating to any such Indebtedness, or any other event occurs, the effect of which
default or other event is to cause, or to permit the holder or holders of such Indebtedness (or a trustee or agent on behalf 

  
 -37- 

 
of such holder or holders or beneficiary or beneficiaries) to cause, with the giving of notice if required, such Indebtedness to become due or to be repurchased, prepaid, defeased or redeemed
(automatically or otherwise), or an offer to repurchase, prepay, defease or redeem such Indebtedness to be made, prior to its stated maturity; provided that this clause (e)(B) shall not apply to secured Indebtedness that becomes due as a result of
the voluntary sale or transfer of the property or assets securing such Indebtedness, if such sale or transfer is permitted hereunder and under the documents providing for such Indebtedness and such Indebtedness is repaid when required under the
documents providing for such Indebtedness; provided, further, that such failure is unremedied and is not validly waived by the holders of such Indebtedness in accordance with the terms of the documents governing such Indebtedness prior to any
acceleration of the Loans pursuant to Section 8.02; provided further, that, for the avoidance of doubt, a requirement to make a mandatory redemption or repayment of Indebtedness solely from amounts on deposit with a third party escrow agent

(f) Insolvency Proceedings, Etc. The Borrower institutes or consents to the institution of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law,
or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors; or applies for or consents to the appointment of any receiver, trustee, custodian, conservator, liquidator, rehabilitator or similar officer for it or for all or any material part of its property;

 -38- 

 
of any provision of any Loan Document; or the Borrower or Parent denies in writing that it has any or further liability or obligation under any Loan Document (other than as a result of repayment
in full of the Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations as to which no claim has been asserted) and termination of the Commitments), or purports in writing to revoke or rescind any Loan Document or (b) the Escrow Agreement
or the Keepwell Agreement shall terminate or otherwise cease to be in full force and effect, or any Lien created by the Escrow Agreement shall cease to be, or shall be asserted in writing by the Borrower not to be enforceable and of the same effect

agreement or condition relating to the CommScope Credit Agreement, or any other event occurs or continues to occur, the effect of which default or other event is to cause, or to permit the applicable lenders under the CommScope Credit Agreement (or
a trustee or agent on behalf of such lenders or beneficiary or beneficiaries) to cause, with the giving of notice if required, Indebtedness under the CommScope Credit Agreement to become due or to be repurchased, prepaid, defeased or redeemed
(automatically or otherwise), or an offer to repurchase, prepay, defease or redeem such Indebtedness to be made, prior to its stated maturity. 

(m) TE Acquisition Agreement. The TE Acquisition Agreement shall be modified, amended, or waived, or a consent shall be given
thereunder, in a manner material and adverse to the Lenders or the Administrative Agent without the prior consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). For purposes of the foregoing, it
is hereby understood and agreed that any change in the purchase price in connection with the TE Acquisition shall not be deemed to be material and adverse to the interests of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent; provided that (i) any
increase in the purchase price shall be funded solely by an increase in the amount of cash consideration and (ii) any reduction of the purchase price shall reduce on a dollar-for-dollar basis the amounts to be funded under the Parent’s
proposed $1,500 million in aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes and/or the bridge facilities to be incurred in connection with the TE Acquisition. 

8.02 Remedies Upon Event of Default. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Administrative Agent shall, at the request
of, or may, with the consent of, the Required Lenders declare the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon, and all other amounts owing or payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document to be
immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower, and exercise on behalf of itself and the Lenders all rights and remedies available to it and the
Lenders under the Loan Documents, and/or under applicable Law; provided, however, that upon the 

  
 -39- 

 
occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Borrower under any Debtor Relief Law, the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans and all interest and
other amounts as aforesaid shall automatically become due and payable, in each case without further act of the Administrative Agent or any Lender. 

8.03 Application of Funds. After the exercise of remedies provided for in Section 8.02 (or after the Loans have
automatically become immediately due and payable), any amounts received on account of the Obligations (including from the Escrow Account) shall, be applied by the Administrative Agent in the following order: 

First, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts
(including fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel payable under Section 10.04 and amounts payable under Article III) payable to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such; 

Second, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities and other amounts (other than
principal and interest) payable to the Lenders (including fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel payable under Section 10.04) arising under the Loan Documents and amounts payable under Article III, ratably among them in
proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Second payable to them; 
 Third, to payment of that
portion of the Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans, ratably among the Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Third payable to them; 

Fourth, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Loans ratably among the
Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Fourth held by them; 
 Fifth, to the
payment of all other Obligations of the Borrower owing under or in respect of the Loan Documents that are due and payable to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of
all such Obligations owing to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties on such date; and 
 Last, the
balance, if any, after all of the Obligations have been paid in full, to the Borrower or as otherwise required by Law. 
 ARTICLE IX 

ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND OTHER AGENTS 

9.01 Appointment and Authorization of Administrative Agent 

(a) Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints, designates and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf under the
provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together

  
 -40- 

 
with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, and the Administrative Agent hereby accepts such appointment. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere herein or in
any other Loan Document, no Administrative Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall any Administrative Agent, including the Syndication Agent, have or be deemed to have any fiduciary
relationship with any Lender or participant, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against any Administrative Agent.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” herein and in the other Loan Documents with reference to any Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express)
obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. 

(b) The Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to deliver Instruction Notices (as defined in the Escrow Agreement) and any other
applicable instructions under the Escrow Agreement. 
 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, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultants or experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Neither
Administrative Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct. 

9.03 Liability of Administrative Agent. No Administrative Agent-Related Person shall (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted
to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with its duties expressly set forth
herein, to the extent determined in a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction) or (b) be responsible in any manner to any Lender or participant for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by the
Borrower or any officer thereof, contained herein or in 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 the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the perfection or priority of any Lien or security interest created or purported to be
created under the Escrow Agreement, or for any failure of the Borrower or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Administrative Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lender or
participant 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
Affiliate thereof. 

  
 -41- 

 9.04 Reliance by the Administrative Agent. 

(a) The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, communication, signature,
resolution, representation, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, electronic mail message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it 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 counsel to the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. Each Administrative Agent
shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under any Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or such greater number of Lenders as may be expressly required hereby in any
instance) as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such
action. Each Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders (or such greater number
of Lenders as may be expressly required hereby in any instance) and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders. 

(b) For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Section 4.01 of this Agreement, each Lender that has
signed this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender unless the
Administrative Agent shall have received notice from such Lender prior to the proposed Closing Date specifying its objection thereto. 

9.05 Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default,
except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or the
Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” The Administrative Agent will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. The Administrative Agent shall take
such action with respect to any Event of Default as may be directed by the Required Lenders in accordance with Article VIII; provided, however, that unless and until the Administrative Agent has received any such direction, the
Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Lenders. 

9.06 Credit Decision; Disclosure of Information by Administrative Agent. Each Lender acknowledges that no Administrative Agent-Related
Person has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by the Administrative Agent taken after the Closing Date, including any consent to and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of the Borrower or any Affiliate
thereof, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Administrative Agent-Related Person to any Lender as to any matter, including whether Administrative Agent-Related Persons have disclosed material information in their
possession. Each Lender represents to the Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Administrative Agent-Related Person and based on such documents 

  
 -42- 

 
and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of an investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of
the Borrower, and all applicable bank or other regulatory Laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to the Borrower hereunder. Each Lender also represents that
it will, independently and without reliance upon any Administrative Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in
taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and
creditworthiness of the Borrower. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent herein, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any
Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Borrower or any of its Affiliates which may come into the possession of any Administrative
Agent-Related Person. 
 9.07 Indemnification of Administrative Agent. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are
consummated, the Lenders shall indemnify upon demand each Administrative Agent-Related Person (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), pro rata, and hold
harmless each Administrative Agent-Related Person from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by it; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to any Administrative Agent-Related Person of any
portion of such Indemnified Liabilities to the extent determined in a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Administrative Agent-Related Person’s own gross negligence or willful
misconduct; provided, however, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section 9.07. Without
limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse the Administrative Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including the fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel) incurred by the
Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or
responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Borrower. The undertaking
in this Section 9.07 shall survive termination of the Commitments, the payment of all other Obligations and the resignation of the Administrative Agent. 

9.08 Administrative Agent in its Individual Capacity. The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of
credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire Equity Interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with the Borrower and its Affiliates as though it were not the
Administrative Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Lenders. The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, the Administrative Agent or its Affiliates may receive information the Borrower or its Affiliates (including
information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of the Borrower or such Affiliate) and 

  
 -43- 

 
acknowledge that the Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to its Loans, the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and
powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise such rights and powers as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” include the Administrative Agent in its individual
capacity. 
 9.09 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign as the Administrative Agent upon thirty
(30) days’ notice to the Lenders. If the Administrative Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent shall be consented to by the
Borrower at all times other than during the existence of an Event of Default under Section 8.01(a), (f), or (g) (which consent of the Borrower shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that
notwithstanding the foregoing, if agreed by such financial institution, the Required Lenders shall first be required to appoint a financial institution (or its designated Affiliate) party to the Commitment Letter referred to in Section 10.12,
before any appointment of another Lender hereunder. If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and the
Borrower, a successor agent from among the Lenders. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor agent hereunder, the Person acting as such successor agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring the Administrative
Agent and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor administrative agent and/or supplemental administrative agent, as the case may be, and the retiring Administrative Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as the
Administrative Agent shall be terminated. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as the applicable Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article IX and Sections 10.04 and 10.05 shall inure to
its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Administrative Agent under this Agreement. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as the Administrative Agent by the date which is thirty (30) days
following the retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lenders shall perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent
hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor and upon the execution and filing or recording of
such financing statements, or amendments thereto, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or desirable, or as the Required Lenders may request, in order to continue the perfection of any Liens granted or purported to be granted by
the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, discretion, privileges, and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the
Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor or upon the expiration of the thirty-day period following the retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation without a successor agent having been appointed, such retiring Administrative
Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as the Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article IX shall continue in effect
for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Administrative Agent. 

  
 -44- 

 9.10 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any
receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be
due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

 (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other
Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.09 and 10.04) allowed in such judicial
proceeding; and 
 (b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the
same; 
 and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby
authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for
the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.09 and 10.04. 

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any
Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding. 

9.11 Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to all rights, privileges and immunities provided to it in the Escrow Agreement.

 9.12 Other Administrative Agents; Arranger and Managers. None of the Lenders shall have any right, power, obligation, liability,
responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Lenders shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges
that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of the Lenders in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder. 

9.13 Appointment of Supplemental Administrative Agents. 

(a) It is the purpose of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that there shall be no violation of any Law of any jurisdiction denying
or restricting the right of banking corporations or associations to transact business as agent or trustee in such jurisdiction. 

  
 -45- 

 
It is recognized that in case of litigation under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and in particular in case of the enforcement of any of the Loan Documents, or in case the
Administrative Agent deems that by reason of any present or future Law of any jurisdiction it may not exercise any of the rights, powers or remedies granted herein or in any of the other Loan Documents or take any other action which may be desirable
or necessary in connection therewith, the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to appoint an additional individual or institution selected by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion as a separate trustee, co-trustee, administrative
agent, administrative sub-agent or administrative co-agent (any such additional individual or institution being referred to herein individually, as a “Supplemental Administrative Agent”, and collectively as
“Supplemental Administrative Agents”). 
 (b) [reserved]. 

(c) In the event that the Administrative Agent appoints a Supplemental Administrative Agent, (i) each and every right, power, privilege
or duty expressed or intended by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to be exercised by or vested in or conveyed to the Administrative Agent shall be exercisable by and vest in such Supplemental Administrative Agent to the extent, and
only to the extent, necessary to enable such Supplemental Administrative Agent to exercise such rights, powers and privileges and to perform such duties, and every covenant and obligation contained in the Loan Documents and necessary to the exercise
or performance thereof by such Supplemental Administrative Agent shall run to and be enforceable by either the Administrative Agent or such Supplemental Administrative Agent, and (ii) the provisions of this Article IX and of Sections
10.04 and 10.05 (obligating the Borrower to pay the Administrative Agent’s expenses and to indemnify the Administrative Agent) that refer to the Administrative Agent shall inure to the benefit of such Supplemental Administrative
Agent and all references therein to the Administrative Agent shall be deemed to be references to the Administrative Agent and/or such Supplemental Administrative Agent, as the context may require. 

(d) [reserved]. 
 (e) Should any
instrument in writing from the Borrower or Holdings be required by any Supplemental Administrative Agent so appointed by the Administrative Agent for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to him or it such rights, powers, privileges and
duties, the Borrower or Holdings, as applicable, shall execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all such instruments promptly upon request by the Administrative Agent. In case any Supplemental Administrative Agent, or a successor thereto, shall die,
become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of such Supplemental Administrative Agent, to the extent permitted by Law, shall vest in and be exercised by the Administrative Agent until the
appointment of a new Supplemental Administrative Agent. 
 9.14 Withholding Taxes. 

To the extent required by any applicable laws, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to
any applicable withholding Tax. Without limiting or expanding the provisions of Section 3.01, each Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent against, and shall make payable in respect thereof

  
 -46- 

 
within 10 days after demand therefor, any and all Taxes and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities and expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the
Administrative Agent) incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent by the IRS or any other Governmental Authority as a result of the failure of the Administrative Agent to properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of
such Lender for any reason (including, without limitation, because the appropriate form was not delivered or not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the
exemption from, or reduction of withholding Tax ineffective). A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes
the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due the Administrative Agent under this Section 9.15. The agreements in this
Section 9.15 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of
all other Obligations. 
 ARTICLE X 

MISCELLANEOUS 
 10.01
Amendments, Etc. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, no amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and no consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom, shall be effective
unless in writing signed by the Required Lenders and the Borrower (and, in the case of the Escrow Agreement, the Escrow Agent) and acknowledged by the Administrative Agent, and each such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific
instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no such amendment, waiver or consent shall: 

(a) extend or increase the Commitment of any Lender, or reinstate the Commitment of any Lender after the termination of such Commitment, in
each case without the written consent of such Lender (it being understood that a waiver of any condition precedent set forth in Section 4.01 or the waiver of any Default or Event of Default, mandatory prepayment or mandatory reduction of
the Commitments shall not constitute an extension or increase of any Commitment of any Lender); 
 (b) postpone any date scheduled for any
payment of principal of, or interest on, any Loan, or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby, it being understood that the waiver of any mandatory prepayment of
Loans under the Term Loan Facility shall not constitute a postponement of any date scheduled for the payment of principal or interest; 

(c) reduce the principal of, or the rate of interest specified herein on, any Loan or (subject to clause (iii) of the second
proviso to this Section 10.01) any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby; provided, however, that only
the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to amend the definition of “Default Rate” or to waive any obligation of the Borrower to pay interest at the Default Rate; 

  
 -47- 

 (d) modify Section 2.12 without the written consent of each Lender directly and
adversely affected thereby; 
 (e) change any provision of this Section 10.01 or the definition of “Required Lenders”,
or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to amend, waive or otherwise modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender; or

 (f) release funds from the Escrow Account (other than in accordance with the terms thereof); 

in each case without the written consent of all Lenders; 

and provided, further that (i) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent, in its
capacity as such, in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of, or any fees or other amounts payable to, the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (ii) no amendment, waiver or consent
to Section 9.12 shall be permitted unless signed in writing by the Escrow Agent; and (iii) Section 10.07(g) may not be amended, waived or otherwise modified without the consent of each Granting Lender all or any part of whose
Loans are being funded by an SPC at the time of such amendment, waiver or other modification. 
 Notwithstanding anything else to the
contrary contained in this Section 10.01, (a) if the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall have jointly identified an obvious error or any error or omission of a technical nature, in each case, in any provision of the Loan
Documents, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend such provision and such amendments shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Loan Document if the same is not objected
to in writing by the Required Lenders within five (5) Business Days following receipt of notice thereof and (b) the Escrow Agreement may be amended, restated, supplemented, waived or modified solely with the consent of the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent and the Escrow Agent, without the consent of any other party.

in such subsection (b). 
 (b) Electronic Communications. Notices and other communications to the Lenders hereunder may be delivered
or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender pursuant to
Article II if such Lender has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving, or is unwilling to receive, notices under such Article II by electronic communication. The Administrative Agent or the Borrower may, in
its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or
communications. 
 Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address

“AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT-RELATED PERSONS DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR
OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY
RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT-RELATED PERSON IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. In no event shall any Administrative Agent-Related Person have any liability to
Holdings, Parent, the Borrower, any Lender or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of Holdings, Parent or the Borrower’s or the Administrative
Agent’s transmission of Borrower Materials through the internet, except to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are 

  
 -49- 

 
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Administrative Agent-Related Person;
provided, however, that in no event shall any Administrative Agent-Related Person have any liability to Holdings, Parent, the Borrower, any Lender or any other Person for indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages
(as opposed to direct or actual damages). 
 (d) Change of Address, Etc. Each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may change
its address, telecopier or telephone number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. Each other Lender may change its address, telecopier or telephone number for notices and other communications hereunder
by notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. In addition, each Lender agrees to notify the Administrative Agent from time to time to ensure that the Administrative Agent has on record (i) an effective address, contact name, telephone
number, telecopier number and electronic mail address to which notices and other communications may be sent and (ii) accurate wire instructions for such Lender. Furthermore, each Public Lender agrees to cause at least one individual at or on
behalf of such Public Lender to at all times have selected the “Private Side Information” or similar designation on the content declaration screen of the Platform in order to enable such Public Lender or its delegate, in accordance with
such Public Lender’s compliance procedures and applicable Law, including United States Federal and state securities Laws, to make reference to Borrower Materials that are not made available through the “Public Side Information”
portion of the Platform and that may contain material non-public information with respect to the Borrower or its securities for purposes of United States Federal or state securities laws. 

(e) Reliance by Administrative Agent and Lenders. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any
notices (including telephonic Committed Loan Notices) purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of
notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Related Parties of each of them from all
losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower. All telephonic notices to and other telephonic communications with the Administrative Agent may be
recorded by the Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording. 
 10.03 No Waiver; Cumulative
Remedies; Enforcement. No failure by any Lender or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver
thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and
privileges herein provided, and provided under each other Loan Document, are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by Law. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies
hereunder and under the other Loan 

  
 -50- 

 
Documents against the Borrower shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the
Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 8.02 for the benefit of all the Lenders; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the
rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (b) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 10.09 (subject to
the terms of Section 2.12), or (c) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to the Borrower under any Debtor Relief Law; and provided,
further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (i) the Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to
Section 8.02 and (ii) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (b), (c) and (d) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 2.12, any Lender may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, enforce any
rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required Lenders. 
 10.04 Expenses and Taxes. The Borrower agrees
(a) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, negotiation, syndication and execution of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents (including reasonable expenses incurred in connection with due diligence and travel, courier, reproduction, printing and delivery expenses), and any amendment, waiver, consent or other modification of the provisions hereof and thereof
(whether or not the transactions contemplated thereby are consummated), and the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel (limited
to the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of one counsel to the Administrative Agent and, if necessary, of one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction plus, in the event of any actual or potential conflict of interest, one
additional counsel in each relevant jurisdiction for Administrative Agent subject to such conflict), and (b) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent and each Lender for all reasonable documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in
connection with the enforcement of any rights or remedies under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (including all such costs and expenses incurred during any legal proceeding, including any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or in
connection with any workout or restructuring and all documentary taxes associated with the Term Loan Facility), including the fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel (limited to the fees, disbursements and other charges of one counsel to
the Administrative Agent and the Lenders taken as a whole, and, if necessary, of one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction and of special counsel for each relevant specialty and, in the event of any actual or potential conflict of interest,
one additional counsel in each relevant jurisdiction for each Lender or group of Lenders or Administrative Agent subject to such conflict), in each case without duplication for any amounts paid (or indemnified) under Section 3.01. The
foregoing costs and expenses shall include all reasonable search, filing, recording, title insurance and appraisal charges and fees and taxes related thereto, and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Administrative Agent. All amounts due
under this Section 10.04 shall be paid within thirty (30) days after invoiced or demand therefor (with a reasonably detailed invoice with respect thereto) (except for any such costs and expenses incurred prior to the Closing Date,
which shall be paid on the Closing Date). The agreements in this Section 10.04 shall survive the termination of the Commitments and repayment of all other Obligations. If the 

  
 -51- 

 
Borrower fails to pay when due any costs, expenses or other amounts payable by it hereunder or under any Loan Document, such amount may be paid on behalf of the Borrower by the Administrative
Agent or any Lender, in its sole discretion. 
 10.05 Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless
each Administrative Agent-Related Person, each Lender and their respective Affiliates, partners, directors, officers, employees, counsel, agents and, in the case of any funds, trustees and advisors and attorneys-in-fact (collectively the
“Indemnitees”) from and against (and will reimburse each Indemnitee as the same are incurred for) any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs (including
settlement costs), expenses and disbursements (including the fees, disbursements and other charges of (i) one counsel to the Indemnitees taken as a whole, (ii) in the case of any actual or perceived conflict of interest, additional counsel
to the affected Lender or group of Lenders, limited to one such additional counsel for each affected Lender or group of Lenders so long as representation of each such party by a single counsel is consistent with and permitted by professional
responsibility rules, and (iii) if necessary, one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction and special counsel for each relevant specialty) of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted or
awarded against any such Indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out of or in connection with or by reason of any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding in any way relating to, arising out of, in connection with or
by reason of any of the following, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory (including any investigation of, preparation for, or defense of any pending or threatened claim, investigation, litigation or proceeding): (a) the execution,
delivery, enforcement, performance or administration of any Loan Document or any other agreement, letter or instrument delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby or
(b) any Commitment or Loan or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom; provided, that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties,
claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such
Indemnitee or material breach of its express obligations under the Loan Documents by such Indemnitee or its Related Parties (collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”) in all cases, whether or not caused by or arising, in
whole or in part, out of the negligence of the Indemnitee and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of any information or other materials obtained
through IntraLinks or other information transmission systems (including electronic telecommunications) in connection with this Agreement unless determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from
the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, nor shall any Indemnitee or the Borrower (without limitation to the Borrower’s indemnification obligations hereunder) have any liability for any special, punitive,
indirect or consequential damages relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or arising out of its activities in connection herewith or therewith (whether before or after the Closing Date). In the case of an investigation, litigation or
other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 10.05 applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the Borrower, its directors, shareholders or creditors or
an Indemnitee or any other Person, whether or not any Indemnitee is otherwise a 

  
 -52- 

 
party thereto. Should any investigation, litigation or proceeding be settled, or if there is a judgment against an Indemnitee in any such investigation, litigation or proceeding, the Borrower
shall indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee in the manner set forth above. All amounts due under this Section 10.05 shall be payable within thirty (30) days after demand therefor. The agreements in this
Section 10.05 shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations. 

10.06 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower is made to the Administrative Agent, to any
Lender, or the Administrative Agent or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required
(including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then
(a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and
(b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by any Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand
to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the
Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. 
 10.07 Successors and Assigns. 

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and
assigns permitted hereby, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder (other than in connection with an Escrow Assumption) without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and
each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.07(b), (ii) by way of participation in
accordance with the provisions of Section 10.07(d), (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of Section 10.07(f) or (iv) to an SPC in accordance with the provisions of
Section 10.07(g) (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto,
their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in Section 10.07(d) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or
by reason of this Agreement. 

  
 -53- 

 (b) Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and
obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment(s) and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided, that: 

(i) (A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment under the
Term Loan Facility and the Loans at the time owing to it under the Term Loan Facility or in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to a Lender, no minimum amount shall need be assigned, and
(B) in any case not described in clause (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Commitment or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the outstanding principal balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender
subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the
Trade Date, shall not be less than $1,000,000, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default under Section 8.01(a), (f) or (g) has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise
consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) provided, however, that concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible
Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a single assignment for purposes of determining whether such minimum amount has been met; 

(ii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights
and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Commitment assigned; 
 (iii) no consent shall be
required for any assignment except to the extent required by subsection (b)(i)(B) of this Section and, in addition (A) the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (1) an
Event of Default under Section 8.01(a), (f) or (g) has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (2) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund;
provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after having received notice thereof and
(B) the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund (provided that the Administrative
Agent shall acknowledge any such assignment); 
 (iv) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the
Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (except, (x) in the case of contemporaneous assignments by any Lender to one or more Approved Funds, only a single processing and
recording fee shall be payable for such assignments and (y) the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, may elect to waive such processing and recording fee in the case of any assignment); 

(v) no such assignment shall be made to a natural person or to Holdings or any of its Affiliates; and 

(vi) the assigning Lender shall deliver any Tranche 5 Term Notes or, in lieu thereof, a lost note affidavit reasonably
acceptable to Borrower evidencing such Loans to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent. 

  
 -54- 

 Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to
Section 10.07(c), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and
Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement
(and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections
3.01, 3.04, 3.05, 10.04 and 10.05 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment, and subject to the obligations set forth in Section 10.08). Upon request,
and the surrender by the assigning Lender of its Tranche 5 Term Note, the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Tranche 5 Term Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this
Agreement that does not comply with this clause (b) shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 10.07(d). 

(c) The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower (and such agency being solely for tax purposes),
shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and
related interest amounts) of the Loans, owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be
available for inspection by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

(d) Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any
Person (other than to a natural person, Holdings or an Affiliate of Holdings) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its
Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the
performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this
Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision
of this Agreement; provided, that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to
Section 10.01 that 

  
 -55- 

 
directly affects such Participant. Subject to Section 10.07(e), the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and
3.05 (subject to the requirements and the limitations of such Sections, including and Section 3.01(c)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.07(b).
To the extent permitted by law, each participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.09 as though it were a Lender, provided, such participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.12 as though it were a
Lender. Each Lender that sells participations to a participant, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain a register of all such participants. The entries in the participant register shall be conclusive
(absent manifest error), and the Borrower and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the participant register pursuant to the terms hereof as a participant for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the
contrary. 
 (e) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.01, 3.04 or
3.05 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless such entitlement to a greater payment results from a change in any Law after the sale of the participation
takes place. 
 (f) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement
(including under its Tranche 5 Term Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or any central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender; provided,
that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special
purpose funding vehicle identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (an “SPC”) the option to provide all or any part of any Loan that such Granting
Lender would otherwise be obligated to make pursuant to this Agreement; provided, that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to fund any Loan, and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise
fails to make all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof or, if it fails to do so, to make such payment to the Administrative Agent as is required under
Section 2.11(b)(ii). Each party hereto hereby agrees that an SPC shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 (subject to the requirements and the limitations of such Sections, including the
obligations to provide the forms and certifications pursuant to Section 3.01(c) as if it were a Lender); provided, that neither the grant to any SPC nor the exercise by any SPC of such option shall increase the costs or expenses
or otherwise increase or change the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement (including its obligations under Section 3.01, 3.04 or 3.05) unless such increase or change results from a change in any Law after the
grant was made. Each party hereto further agrees that (i) no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement for which a Lender would be liable, and (ii) the Granting Lender shall for all purposes,
including the approval of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of any Loan Document, remain the lender of record hereunder. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the
same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. In furtherance of the foregoing, each 

  
 -56- 

 
party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding
commercial paper or other senior debt of any SPC, it will not, other than in respect of matters unrelated to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, such SPC any
bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, or liquidation proceeding under the laws of the United States or any state thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without
prior consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and with the payment of a processing fee of $3,500, assign all or any portion of its rights hereunder with respect to any Loan to the Granting Lender and (ii) disclose on a confidential
basis any non-public information relating to its funding of Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety or Guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC. 

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender that is a Fund may create a security interest in all or any portion
of the Loans owing to it and a Tranche 5 Term Note, if any, held by it to the trustee for holders of obligations owed, or securities issued, by such Fund as security for such obligations or securities; provided, that unless and until such
trustee actually becomes a Lender in compliance with the other provisions of this Section 10.07, (i) no such pledge shall release the pledging Lender from any of its obligations under the Loan Documents, and (ii) such trustee
shall not be entitled to exercise any of the rights of a Lender under the Loan Documents even though such trustee may have acquired ownership rights with respect to the pledged interest through foreclosure or otherwise. 

(i) [reserved]. 
 (j) The
applicable Lender, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower (solely for tax purposes), shall maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of (i) each SPC (other than any SPC that is treated as a
disregarded entity of the Granting Lender for U.S. federal income tax purposes) that has exercised its option pursuant to Section 10.07(g) and (ii) each Participant, and the amount of each such SPC’s and Participant’s
interest in such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each
Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of the applicable rights and/or obligations of such Lender under this Agreement. 

(k) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event shall any Lender assign or sell any participation to any operating company
competitors of the Borrower identified as such in writing by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent. 
 10.08 Confidentiality. The
Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information, except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other
advisors, and other Affiliates (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential in accordance with customary
practices); (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent, Lender or its 

  
 -57- 

 
respective Affiliates or in connection with any pledge or assignment permitted under Section 10.07(f); (c) in any legal, judicial, administrative proceeding or other compulsory
process or otherwise as required by applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process; (d) to any other party to this Agreement; (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan
Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder; (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this
Section 10.08 (or as may otherwise be reasonably acceptable to the Borrower), to any Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this
Agreement; (g) with the written consent of the Borrower; (h) to the extent such Information becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.08; (i) to any state, Federal or foreign
authority or examiner (including the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any other similar organization) regulating any Lender; or (j) to any rating agency when required by it (it being understood that, prior to any such
disclosure, such rating agency shall undertake to preserve the confidentiality of any Information relating to the Borrower received by it from such Lender). In addition, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this
Agreement and information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry, and service providers to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with the administration and management of
this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Commitments, and the making of Loans. For the purposes of this Section 10.08, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower relating to the Borrower
or its business, other than any such information that is publicly available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender prior to disclosure by the Borrower other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.08; provided, 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 or is delivered pursuant to Section 6.01, 6.02, or 6.03 hereof and is
not publicly available. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 10.08 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 Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. 
 Each of the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders acknowledges that (i) the Information may include material non-public information concerning the Borrower, Holdings or a Subsidiary of either, as the case may be, (ii) it has developed compliance
procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and (iii) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with applicable Law, including United States Federal and state securities Laws. 

10.09 Setoff. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and Lenders provided by Law, upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent and Lender is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to the Borrower, any such notice being waived by the Borrower to the fullest extent permitted
by Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), other than deposits in fiduciary accounts as to which the Borrower is acting as fiduciary for another Person, at any time held by, and
other Indebtedness at any time owing by, the Administrative Agent or Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower 

  
 -58- 

 
against any and all Obligations owing to the Administrative Agent or Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document, as of the Closing Date or thereafter existing, irrespective of whether or
not the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall have made demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured or denominated in a currency different from that of the applicable
deposit or Indebtedness. Each Administrative Agent and Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by the Administrative Agent or Lender; provided, however,
that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of the Administrative Agent and each Lender under this Section 10.09 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including,
without limitation, other rights of setoff) that the Administrative Agent and such Lender may have. 
 10.10 Interest Rate
Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the
“Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid
principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law,
(a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal
parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder. 
 10.11 Counterparts. This
Agreement and each other Loan Document may be executed in one or more counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same
instrument. Delivery by telecopier or other electronic transmission of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement and each other Loan Document shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement
and such other Loan Document. The Administrative Agent may also require that any such documents and signatures delivered by telecopier or other electronic transmission be confirmed by a manually-signed original thereof; provided, that the
failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any document or signature delivered by telecopier or other electronic transmission. 

10.12 Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and those provisions of the Commitment Letter and the
Fee Letter, each dated as of January 27, 2015, among Parent, JPMCB and the other parties thereto, constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and
understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control; provided, that the
inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in any other Loan Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement. Each Loan Document was drafted with the joint participation of the
respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof. 

  
 -59- 

 10.13 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made
hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will
be relied upon by the Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or
knowledge of any Default at the time of making any Loan, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied. 

10.14 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, the
legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render
unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
