 SECTION 6. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Amended and Restated Credit
Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and verbal, among the
parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. Except as expressly set forth herein, this Agreement shall not by implication or otherwise limit, impair, constitute a waiver of, or otherwise affect the rights and remedies of any party
under, the Credit Agreement, nor alter, modify, amend or in any way affect any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Credit Agreement, all of which are ratified and affirmed in all respects and shall
continue in full force and effect. It is understood and agreed that each reference in each Loan Document to the Credit Agreement, whether direct or indirect, shall hereafter be deemed to be a reference to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement
attached hereto and that this Agreement is a Loan Document. This Agreement shall not constitute a novation of any amount owing under the Credit Agreement and all amounts owing in respect of principal, interest, fees and other amounts pursuant to the
Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall, to the extent not paid or exchanged on or prior to the Restatement Effective Date, shall continue to be owing under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement or such other Loan Documents until

ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. SECTIONS 9.09 and 9.10 OF THE CREDIT AGREEMENT ARE HEREBY INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE INTO THIS AGREEMENT MUTATIS MUTANDIS AND SHALL APPLY HERETO. 

SECTION 8. Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement should be held invalid,
illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and therein, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it
being understood that the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction). The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace
the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions. 

SECTION 9. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different
counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Agreement by facsimile transmission or other customary means of
electronic transmission (e.g., “pdf”) shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement.

 ARTICLE II 

The Loans 
 SECTION 2.01
Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, on the Restatement Effective Date, each Lender, severally, agrees to permit the continuance of extension of credit by it to the Borrower in respect of the amount equal to such
Lender’s Applicable Percent of the Aggregate Commitment. 
 SECTION 2.02 Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt; Collateral. 

(a) Commencing on the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Restatement Effective Date, and on each subsequent anniversary date thereafter, 2.0%
of the then outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Loans (inclusive of any PIK Amounts as a result of the Borrower’s election to pay a portion of the Contract Rate at the PIK Interest Rate) shall be due and payable. To the extent not
previously paid, the Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of the applicable Loan, plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon (inclusive of any
PIK Amounts as a result of the Borrower’s election to pay a portion of the Contract Rate at the PIK Interest Rate), on the Maturity Date. All amounts due and payable hereunder shall be paid in cash; provided, that if requested by Borrower, each
Lender shall have the right to accept from Borrower for the repayment of the Loans and unpaid interest thereon due and owing to such Lender, in lieu of cash, equity of any company listed on the New York Stock Exchange, the NASDAQ Stock Market or the
London Stock Exchange, provided (i) such equity is publicly traded and (ii) the aggregate amount of such equity is equal in value, as of the date such securities are transferred to such Lender, to the aggregate principal amount of Loans
and unpaid interest thereon to be repaid to such Lender. 
 (b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account
or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from the Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. 

(c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, (ii) the
amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each
Lender’s share thereof, all in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
 (d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant
to paragraphs (b) or (c) of this Section 2.02 shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative
Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 

(e) Any Lender may request that the Loan made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and
deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent. 

(f) The Loans shall be secured at all times by the Collateral, pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable
Security Documents. 

  
 15 

 SECTION 2.03 Prepayment of Loans. 

Optional Prepayments. The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay the Loans in whole or in part,
subject to prior notice in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.03. The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment hereunder not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City
time, one (1) Business Day before the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the amount of the Loans to be prepaid. Promptly following receipt of any such notice, the Administrative
Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each prepayment of the Loans shall be applied ratably to each Lender’s Loans based on the Applicable Percentage of each Lender then in effect. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued
interest to the extent required by Section 2.05. 
 SECTION 2.04 Fees. 

(a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, an annual fee equal to $30,000, plus reimbursement of all
fees, costs, expenses and other charges required pursuant to Section 9.03(a). 
 (b) All fees payable under Section 2.04(a) shall
be paid on the dates due, in Dollars and immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances. 

SECTION 2.05 Interest. 

(a) The Loans shall bear interest at the Total Rate. 

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder is
not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate. 

(c) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date and upon acceleration of such Loan following the
occurrence of an Event of Default; provided, that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 2.05 shall be payable on demand and (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (for any
reason, including acceleration of the Loan following the occurrence of an Event of Default), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment. 

(d) All interest hereunder shall accrue on a semi-annual basis and shall be computed using a 30/360 day count convention. For the avoidance of
doubt, each accrual period shall be the six-month period preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date. 
 (e) Each Lender shall have the
right, whether or not a Default or Event of Default has occurred or is continuing, to set off against Contingent Earn-Out Payments due and owing by it, and any other amounts at any time and from time to time
due and owing by such Lender to the Borrower pursuant to the Commercial Lines Master Agreement or the Personal Lines Master Agreement, as applicable, any interest that is due and owing from the Borrower to such Lender pursuant hereto, and any
interest satisfied pursuant to the Lender’s set-off rights contained herein shall constitute a proper method for the payment of interest hereunder. 

  
 16 

 SECTION 2.06 Increased Costs. (a) If any Change in Law shall: 

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement
against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender; 
 (ii) impose on any Lender any
other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender; or 
 (iii) subject any Recipient to
any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments,
or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; 
 and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to
increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder, whether of principal, interest or
otherwise, then the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered as reasonably determined by such Lender (which determination shall be made
in good faith (and not on an arbitrary or capricious basis) after consideration of such factors as such Lender then reasonably determines to be relevant). 

(b) If any Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the
rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loan made by such Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding
company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time the Borrower
will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered as reasonably determined by such Lender (which determination shall be made in good faith
(and not on an arbitrary or capricious basis) after consideration of such factors as such Lender then reasonably determines to be relevant). 

(c) A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may
be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 2.06 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within
ten (10) days after receipt thereof. 
 (d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this
Section 2.06 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.06 for any increased costs or
reductions incurred more than 270 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor;
provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 270-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of
retroactive effect thereof. 

  
 17 

 SECTION 2.07 Taxes. 

(a) Withholding of Taxes; Gross-Up. Each payment by the Borrower under any Loan Document shall
be made without withholding for any Taxes, unless such withholding is required by any law. If any Withholding Agent determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it is so required to withhold Taxes, then such Withholding Agent may
so withhold and shall timely pay the full amount of withheld Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. If such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes, then the amount payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary
so that, net of such withholding (including such withholding applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section 2.07), the applicable Recipient receives the amount it would have received had no such withholding been made. 

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in
accordance with applicable law. 
 (c) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes by the
Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or
other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
 (d) Indemnification by the Borrower. The
Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient for any Indemnified Taxes that are paid or payable by such Recipient in connection with any Loan Document (including amounts paid or payable under this Section 2.07(d)) and any reasonable expenses arising
therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. The indemnity under this Section 2.07(d) shall be paid within ten (10) days
after the Recipient delivers to the Borrower a certificate stating the amount of any Indemnified Taxes so paid or payable by such Recipient and describing the basis for the indemnification claim. Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so
paid or payable absent manifest error. Such Recipient shall deliver a copy of such certificate to the Administrative Agent. 
 (e)
Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the
Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) and (ii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or
paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental
Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and
all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e). 

(f) Status of Lenders. 

(i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of, any applicable withholding Tax with respect to any
payments under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation

  
 18 

 
reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without, or at a reduced rate of, withholding. In addition, any Lender, if requested by
the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or
not such Lender is subject to any withholding (including backup withholding) or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such
documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.07(f)(ii)(A) and (B) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material
unreimbursed cost or expense (or, in the case of a Change in Law, any incremental material unreimbursed cost or expense) or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. Upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or
the Administrative Agent, any Lender shall update any form or certification previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2.07(f). If any form or certification previously delivered pursuant to this Section expires or becomes obsolete or
inaccurate in any respect with respect to a Lender, such Lender shall promptly (and in any event within ten (10) days after such expiration, obsolescence or inaccuracy) notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of such
expiration, obsolescence or inaccuracy and update the form or certification if it is legally eligible to do so. 
 (ii)
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the Borrower is a U.S. Person, any Lender with respect to the Borrower shall, if it is legally eligible to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of
copies reasonably requested by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a party hereto, duly completed and executed copies of whichever of the following is applicable: 

(A) in the case of a Lender that is a U.S. Person, IRS Form W-9 certifying
that such Lender is exempt from U.S. Federal backup withholding tax; or 
 (B) any other form prescribed by law as a
basis for claiming exemption from, or a reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax together with such supplementary documentation necessary to enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the amount of Tax (if any) required by
law to be withheld. 
 (iii) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. Federal
withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the
Withholding Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Withholding 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 Withholding Agent as may be necessary for the Withholding Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender’s
obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 2.07(f)(iii), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

 (g) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a
refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.07 (including additional amounts paid pursuant to this Section 2.07), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the
extent of indemnity payments 

  
 19 

 
made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket
expenses (including any Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party,
shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid to such indemnified party pursuant to the previous sentence (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event such indemnified party is
required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.07(g), in no event will any indemnified party be required to pay any amount to any indemnifying party pursuant to this
Section 2.07(g) if such payment would place such indemnified party in a less favorable position (on a net after-Tax basis) than such indemnified party would have been in if the indemnification payments or
additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This Section 2.07(g) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems
confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person. 
 SECTION 2.08 Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs. 
 (a) The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of
principal, interest or fees, or of amounts payable under Section 2.05, 2.06 or 2.07, or otherwise) prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without
set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of
calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices at 59 Maiden Lane, New York, New York 10038, except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.05, 2.06, 2.07 and 9.03 shall be made
directly to the Persons entitled thereto, pursuant to instructions provided to the Borrower by such Person. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient
promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest
thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in Dollars. 
 (b) 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, towards payment of interest and fees then due
hereunder, ratably among the Lenders entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such Lenders, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal then due hereunder, ratably among the Lenders entitled thereto in
accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such Lenders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any proceeds of Pledged Equity received by the Administrative Agent (i) not constituting a specific payment of principal, interest, fees or other
sum payable under the Loan Documents (which shall be applied as specified by the Borrower) or (ii) after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Required Lenders so direct the Administrative Agent, such funds shall be applied
ratably first, to pay any fees, indemnities, or expense reimbursements including amounts then due to the Administrative Agent from the Borrower, second, to pay any fees or expense reimbursements then due to the Lenders from the
Borrower, third, to pay interest then due and payable on the Loans ratably, and fourth, to the payment of any other Obligation due to the Administrative Agent or any Lender by the Borrower. 

(c) At the election of the Administrative Agent, all payments of principal, interest, fees, premiums, reimbursable expenses (including,
without limitation, all reimbursement for fees and expenses pursuant to Section 9.03), and other sums payable under the Loan Documents, may be deducted from any deposit or securities investment account of the Borrower maintained with the
Administrative Agent or controlled by the Administrative Agent in connection with any deposit or securities account control agreement. 

  
 20 

 (d) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of
set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any interest on its Loan (including any proceeds of Pledged Equity) resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the
aggregate amount of its Loan and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender and contrary to the provisions of this Agreement, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall take such action as shall be
reasonably requested by the other Lender to ensure that the benefit of all such payments are shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees to take such action as
shall be reasonably requested by the Lenders in order to effectuate the provisions of this Section 2.08(d). 
 (e) If any Lender shall
fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 9.03(c), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative
Agent for the account of such Lender and for the benefit of the Administrative Agent to satisfy such Lender’s obligations to it under such Section until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent
may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to
the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent. 
 SECTION 8.06
Resignation of Administrative Agent. Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided in this paragraph, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders and the Borrower in
writing at least thirty (30) days in advance of such resignation. Upon the resignation by AmTrust as Administrative Agent, National General shall have the right (but not the obligation) to become the successor Administrative Agent hereunder in
its sole discretion. If National General elects not to become the successor Administrative Agent pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence or upon the resignation of any Person other than AmTrust serving as the Administrative Agent, the
Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), to appoint a successor; provided, that no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if a Default or Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then
the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as
Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from
its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the
Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 8.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their
respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as Administrative Agent. 

SECTION 8.07 Non-Reliance as Administrative Agent. Each Lender acknowledges that it has,
independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also
acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking
or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. 

  
 32 

 SECTION 8.08 No Partnership or Joint Venture. The Lenders are not partners or co-venturers, and no Lender shall be liable for the acts or omissions of, or (except as otherwise set forth herein in case of the Administrative Agent) authorized to act for, any other Lender. Subject to the
provisions of this Agreement and the Security Documents, the Administrative Agent shall have the exclusive right on behalf of the Lenders to enforce the payment of the principal of and interest on any Loan after the date such principal or interest
has become due and payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. 
 SECTION 8.09 Collateral Matters. In its capacity as
Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent is a “representative” of the Secured Parties within the meaning of the term “secured party” as defined in the New York Uniform Commercial Code. Each Lender authorizes the
Administrative Agent to enter into each of the Security Documents to which it is a party and to take all action contemplated by such documents. Each Lender agrees that no Secured Party (other than the Administrative Agent) shall have the right
individually to seek to realize upon the security granted by any Security Document, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties upon the
terms of the Security Documents. In the event that any Pledged Equity is hereafter pledged by any Person as collateral security for the Obligations, the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized, and hereby granted a power of attorney, to execute
and deliver on behalf of the Secured Parties any Loan Documents necessary or appropriate to grant and perfect a Lien on such Pledged Equity in favor of the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties. The Lenders hereby authorize the
Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held by the Administrative Agent upon any Pledged Equity: (i) as described in Section 9.02(d); (ii) as permitted by, but only in accordance
with, the terms of the applicable Loan Document; or (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders, unless such release is required to be approved by all of the Lenders hereunder. Upon request by the Administrative
Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Pledged Equity pursuant hereto. Upon any sale or transfer of assets constituting Pledged Equity which is
permitted pursuant to the terms of any Loan Document, or consented to in writing by the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders, as applicable, and upon at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written request by the Borrower to the
Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by the Lenders to) execute such documents as may be necessary to evidence the release of the Liens granted to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the
Secured Parties herein or pursuant hereto upon the Pledged Equity that was sold or transferred; provided, however, that (i) the Administrative Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in the Administrative
Agent’s opinion, would expose the Administrative Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Liens without recourse or warranty, and (ii) such release shall not in any manner
discharge, affect or impair the Obligations or any Liens upon (or obligations of the Borrower or any Subsidiary in respect of) all interests retained by the Borrower or any Subsidiary, including (without limitation) the proceeds of the sale, all of
which shall continue to constitute part of the Pledged Equity.

to paragraph (b) below), all notices and other communications provided for herein shall be in writing and shall be delivered by hand or overnight courier service, mailed by certified or registered mail or sent by telecopy, as follows: 

(i) if to the Borrower, to it at 59 Maiden Lane, 38th Floor, New York, NY
10038, Attention of General Counsel; 
 (ii) if to the Administrative Agent, to it at 59 Maiden Lane, 43rd Floor, New York, NY 10038, Attention of Stephen Ungar, General Counsel (Telecopy No. (212) 220-7130; Telephone No. (646) 458-7913); and 
 (iii) if to (A) AmTrust International Insurance, Ltd. (in its
capacity as Lender), to it at 59 Maiden Lane, 43rd Floor, New York, NY 10038, Attention of Stephen Ungar, General Counsel (Telecopy No. (212) 220-7130;
Telephone No. (646) 458-7913), and (B) National General Re Ltd., to it at 59 Maiden Lane, 38th Floor, New York, NY 10038, Attention of Jeffrey
Weissman, General Counsel (Telecopy No. (212) 380-9498; Telephone No. (212) 380-9479). 
 (b) Notices and other communications to
the Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices pursuant to Article II unless otherwise
agreed by the Administrative Agent and the applicable Lender. 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. 
 (c) Any party
hereto may change its address or telecopy number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. All notices and other communications given to any party hereto in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement
shall be deemed to have been given on the date of receipt. 
 SECTION 9.02 Waivers; Amendments. 

(a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document
shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of
any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of
any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only
in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent or any Lender may
have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. 

  
 34 

 (b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except
pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required Lenders or by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall
(i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of
each Lender directly affected thereby, (iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or
postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (iv) changes Sections 2.08(b) or 2.08(d) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of
payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender, (v) change any of the provisions of this Section or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of
Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender or (vi) except as provided in clause (d) of this Section or in any Pledge
Agreement, release all or substantially all of the Pledged Equity, without the written consent of each Lender; provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative
Agent hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. In addition, no amendment, waiver of modification shall be made to Sections 2.02 or 6.01, including with respect to the form of consideration to be paid, without the
consent of each Lender.  
 (c) The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its sole
discretion, to release any Liens granted to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiary on any Pledged Equity (i) upon the payment and satisfaction in full in cash of all Obligations, (ii) constituting property being
sold or disposed of if the Borrower certifies to the Administrative Agent that the sale or disposition is made in compliance with the terms of this Agreement and any applicable Security Document (and the Administrative Agent may rely conclusively on
any certificate, without further inquiry), (iii) constituting property leased to the Borrower or any Subsidiary under a lease which has expired or been terminated in a transaction permitted under this Agreement, or (iv) as required to
effect any sale or other disposition of such Pledged Equity in connection with any exercise of remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders pursuant to Article VII. Any such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair
the Obligations or any Liens (other than those expressly being released) upon (or obligations of the Borrower in respect of) all interests retained by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, including the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue
to constitute part of the Pledged Equity. 
 (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein the Administrative Agent may, with the
consent of the Borrower only, amend, modify or supplement this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency. 

SECTION 9.03 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. 

(a) The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the
Administrative Agent, in connection with the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including the Security Documents and the perfection of Liens pursuant thereto) or
any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated) and (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of one firm as counsel for the Administrative Agent (and, in addition to
such firm, any local counsel engaged in each relevant 

  
 35 

 
jurisdiction by such firm), and one additional firm as counsel for the Lenders (and, in addition to such firm, any local counsel engaged in each relevant jurisdiction by such firm) and additional
counsel as the Administrative Agent or any Lender or group of Lenders reasonably determines are necessary in light of actual or potential conflicts of interest or the availability of different claims or defenses, in connection with the enforcement
or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement and any other Loan Document, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans. 

(b) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such
Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for
any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the performance by the
parties hereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or the use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) any actual or alleged presence or
release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective
claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, and regardless of whether any
Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final
and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. This Section 9.03(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses or damages arising from any non-Tax claim. 
 (c) To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to
the Administrative Agent under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed
expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount (it being understood that the Borrower’s failure to pay any such amount shall not relieve the Borrower of any default in the payment thereof); provided that the unreimbursed expense
or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such. 

(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee (i) for
any damages arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems (including the Internet), or (ii) on any theory of liability, for special,
indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the
Transactions, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof. 
 (e) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than fifteen
(15) days after written demand therefor. 
 SECTION 9.04 Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns 

  
 36 

 
permitted hereby, except that (i) the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any
attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) neither Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other Lender,
except for any assignment or transfer by a Lender to an Affiliate advance written notice of which has been provided to the other Lender and to the Administrative Agent. 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 and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or
equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. In the event of any assignment or transfer of rights or obligations hereunder that is permitted pursuant to this Section 9.04, the assigning or transferring party shall
execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, such agreements, documents and instruments as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to properly document and evidence the assignment or transfer under this Agreement and
other Loan Documents. 
 SECTION 9.05 Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower in the
Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the
execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loan, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge
of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable
under this Agreement or any other Loan Document is outstanding and unpaid and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.06, 2.07, 2.08 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full
force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any provision hereof or
thereof. 
 SECTION 9.06 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different
parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect
to fees payable to the Administrative Agent 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. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together,
bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this
Agreement by facsimile or other electronic imaging shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. 

SECTION 9.07 Severability. Any provision of any Loan Document held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall,
as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions thereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in
a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. 

  
 37 

 SECTION 9.08 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for
the credit or the account of the Borrower against any of and all of the Obligations held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under the Loan Documents and although such obligations may be unmatured.
The rights of each Lender under this Section 9.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have. 

SECTION 9.09 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with
and governed by the law of the State of New York. 
 (b) The Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its
property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County, Borough of Manhattan, and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any
thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any
such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and
may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may otherwise have to
bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against the Borrower or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction. 

(c) The Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection
which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the parties
hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court. 

(d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01. Nothing
in this Agreement or any other Loan Document will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. 

SECTION 9.10 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY
HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY).
EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND
(B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION. 

  
 38 

 SECTION 9.11 Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein
are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement. 

SECTION 9.12 Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the
Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors, in each case who need to know such
Information in connection with the Loan Documents and the Transactions (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), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent
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 under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any
suit, 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, to
(i) any assignee or prospective assignee of any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its
obligations, (g) with the consent of the Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent or
any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower relating to the Borrower or its business, other than any such
information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower; provided that, in the case of information received from the Borrower after the date hereof, such
information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such
Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. 

SECTION 9.13 USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender that is subject to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that
identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Act. 

SECTION 9.14 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to
any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable Requirements of Law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum
Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all
Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate. 
 SECTION 9.15 No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In
connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that: (i) (A) the
arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Lenders are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Borrower, on the one hand, and the Lenders and their 

  
 39 

 
Affiliates, on the other hand, (B) the Borrower has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (C) the Borrower is
capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) (A) each of the Lenders and their Affiliates is and has been acting solely as
a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Borrower or any of its Affiliates and (B) no Lender or any of its Affiliates
has any obligation to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except, in the case of a Lender, those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) each of
the Lenders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrower and its Affiliates, and no Lender or any of its Affiliates has any obligation to disclose any
of such interests to the Borrower or its Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Borrower hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against each of the Lenders and their Affiliates with respect to any breach or alleged
breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby. 
 SECTION 9.16 Appointment for
Perfection. Each Lender hereby appoints each other Lender as its agent for the purpose of perfecting Liens, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties, in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC or any
other applicable law can be perfected only by possession. Should any Lender (other than the Administrative Agent) obtain possession of any Pledged Equity, such Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof, and, promptly upon the
Administrative Agent’s request therefor shall deliver such Pledged Equity to the Administrative Agent or otherwise deal with such Pledged Equity in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s instructions.
