Administrative Agent shall determine, for the benefit of the other relevant 
 

3

use of such amounts to make payments to such other relevant Lenders, each Revolving Lender’s portion of the outstanding Revolving Loans of all the Revolving Lenders to equal its Revolving Percentage of such outstanding Revolving Loans and (ii)
the Borrower shall be deemed to have repaid and reborrowed all outstanding Revolving Loans as of the date of any increase in the Revolving Commitments (with such reborrowing to consist of the Types of Loans, with related Interest Periods if
applicable, specified in a notice delivered by the Borrower in accordance with the requirements of Section 3.2). The deemed payments made pursuant to clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence in respect of each Eurodollar Loan shall be

any Subsidiary created or acquired in connection therewith shall become a Subsidiary Guarantor and the requirements of Section 7.10 shall be satisfied prior to or concurrently with (except to the extent otherwise permitted therein) the consummation
of such Permitted Acquisition, (iii) no Permitted Acquisition shall be consummated unless, after giving effect to such Permitted Acquisition, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries would be in pro forma compliance with the covenants set
forth in Section 8.1 as if such Permitted Acquisition had occurred (and the related Indebtedness incurred or assumed in connection therewith had been incurred) on the first day of the most recent four consecutive fiscal quarters of the Borrower for
which financial statements have been delivered pursuant to Section 7.1 (as demonstrated by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a certificate of a Responsible Officer to such effect showing such calculation in reasonable detail prior to or
concurrently with consummation of such Permitted Acquisition), (iv) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing before and after giving effect to
