Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each LIBOR Loan outstanding from time to time, from the date thereof until paid, at the Derived LIBOR Rate, fixed in advance for each Interest Period (but subject to changes in the Applicable LIBOR Margin) as herein provided for each such Interest Period.  Interest on such LIBOR Loans shall be payable on each Interest Adjustment Date with respect to an Interest Period (provided that if an Interest Period exceeds three (3) months, the interest must be paid every three (3) months, commencing three (3) months from the beginning of such Interest Period).
At the request of Borrower to Agent, subject to the notice and other provisions of Section 2.2 hereof, the Banks shall convert Base Rate Loans to LIBOR Loans at any time and shall convert LIBOR Loans to Base Rate Loans on any Interest Adjustment Date.
The obligation of Borrower to repay the Base Rate Loans and LIBOR Loans that are Revolving Loans made by each Bank and to pay interest thereon shall be evidenced by a Revolving Credit Note of Borrower in the form of Exhibit A hereto, payable to such Bank in the principal amount of its Revolving Credit Commitment, or, if less, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of Revolving Loans made hereunder by such Bank.

The Swing Line Lender may at any time, in its sole and absolute discretion, direct that the Swing Line Loans owing to it be refunded by delivering a notice to such effect to the Agent, specifying the aggregate principal amount thereof (a “Notice of Swing Line Loan Refunding”).  Promptly upon receipt of a Notice of Swing Line Loan Refunding, the Agent shall give notice of the contents thereof to the Banks with Commitments and, unless an Event of Default specified in Section 7.11 in respect of Borrower has occurred, to Borrower.  Each such Notice of Swing Line Loan Refunding shall be deemed to constitute delivery by Borrower under such Swing Line Loan of a Notice of Loan requesting Revolving Loans consisting of Daily LIBOR Loans in the amount of the Swing Line Loan to which it relates.  Each Bank with a Revolving Credit Commitment (including the Swing Line Lender) hereby unconditionally agrees (notwithstanding that any of the conditions specified in Section 2.2 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall not have been satisfied, but subject to the provisions of paragraph 3. below) to make a Revolving Loan to Borrower in the amount of such Bank’s Commitment Percentage of the aggregate amount of the Swing Line Loans to which such Notice of Swing Line Loan Refunding relates.

2.Swing Line Loan Participation.  If prior to the time a Revolving Loan would otherwise have been made as provided above as a consequence of a Notice of Swing Line Loan Refunding, any of the events specified in Section 7.11 shall have occurred in respect of Borrower or one or more of the Banks with Revolving Credit Commitments shall determine that it is legally prohibited from making a Revolving Loan under such circumstances, each Bank (other than the Swing Line Lender), or each Bank (other than such Swing Line Lender) so prohibited, as the case may be, shall, on the date such Revolving Loan would have been made by it (the “Purchase Date”), purchase an undivided participating interest (a “Swing Line Loan Participation”) in the outstanding Swing Line Loans to which such Notice of Swing Line Loan Refunding relates, in an amount (the “Swing Line Loan Participation Amount”) equal to such Bank’s Commitment Percentage of such outstanding Swing Line Loans.  On the Purchase Date, each such Bank or each such Bank so prohibited, as the case may be, shall pay to the Swing Line Lender, in immediately available funds, such Bank’s Swing Line Loan Participation Amount, and promptly upon receipt thereof the Swing Line Lender shall, if requested by such other Bank, deliver to such Bank a participation certificate, dated the date of the Swing Line Lender’s receipt of the funds from, and evidencing such Bank’s Swing Line Loan Participation in, such Swing Line Loans and its Swing Line Loan Participation Amount in respect thereof.  If any amount required to be paid by a Bank to the Swing Line Lender pursuant to the above provisions in respect of any Swing Line Loan Participation is not paid on the date such payment is due, such Bank shall pay 

29
NAI-1519170929v11        

to the Swing Line Lender on demand interest on the amount not so paid at the overnight Federal Funds Effective Rate from the due date until such amount is paid in full.  Whenever, at any time after the Swing Line Lender has received from any other Bank such Bank’s Swing Line Loan Participation Amount, the Swing Line Lender receives any payment from or on behalf of Borrower on account of the related Swing Line Loans, the Swing Line Lender will promptly distribute to such Bank its ratable share of such amount based on its Commitment Percentage of such amount on such date on account of its Swing Line Loan Participation (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Bank’s participating interest was outstanding and funded); provided, however, that if such payment received by the Swing Line Lender is required to be returned, such Bank will return to the Swing Line Lender any portion thereof previously distributed to it by the Swing Line Lender.
3.Obligations Unconditional.  Each Bank’s obligation to make Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.1B and/or to purchase Swing Line Loan Participations in connection with a Notice of Swing Line Loan Refunding shall be subject to the conditions that (i) such Bank shall have received a Notice of Swing Line Loan Refunding complying with the provisions hereof and (ii) at the time the Swing Line Loans that are the subject of such Notice of Swing Line Loan Refunding were made, the Swing Line Lender making the same had no actual written notice from another Bank that an Event of Default had occurred and was continuing, but otherwise shall be absolute and unconditional, shall be solely for the benefit of the Swing Line Lender that gives such Notice of Swing Line Loan Refunding, and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including, without limitation, (A) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Bank may have against any other Bank, Borrower, any Guarantor, or any other Person, or Borrower or Guarantor may have against any Bank or other Person, as the case may be, for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or Event of Default; (C) any event or circumstance involving a Material Adverse Effect; (D) any breach of any Loan Document by any party thereto; or (E) any other circumstance, happening or event, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.
4.    Credit Sweep Swing Line Loans.   In the event of any Deficit Collected Balance (as defined in the Cash Management Master Agreement), the Swing Line Lender may elect, in its sole discretion, to automatically make a Swing Line Loan to the Borrower in the amount of such Deficit Collected Balance (each such Swing Line Loan, a “Cash Sweep Swing Line Loan”), in accordance with the terms of the Cash Management Master Agreement, without any action on the part of the Borrower, so long as, after giving effect to any such Cash Sweep Swing Line Loan, (A) the aggregate principal amount of Swing Line Loans outstanding does not exceed the Swing Line Commitment, (B) the Revolving Credit Exposure would not exceed the Total Commitment Amount and (C) Borrower would not be required to prepay Loans or Cash Collateralize Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.8 hereof. 

30
NAI-1519170929v11        

Upon the request of any Bank, the obligation of Borrower to repay any Swing Line Loan made by such Bank and to pay interest thereon shall be evidenced by a Swing Line Note of Borrower in the form of Exhibit B hereto, payable to the Swing Line Lender in the principal amount of its Swing Line Loan Participation Amount, or, if less, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of Swing Line Loans made hereunder by the Swing Line Lender.  Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, Borrower shall be entitled under this Section 2.1B to borrow funds, repay the same in whole or in part and re-borrow hereunder at any time and from time to time during the Commitment Period.
C.Letters of Credit.
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, during the Commitment Period, the Fronting Bank, in its own name, but only as agent for the Banks, shall issue such Letters of Credit for the account of Borrower, any Guarantor of Payment or the Insurance Subsidiary as Borrower may from time to time request.  Borrower shall not request any Letter of Credit (and the Fronting Bank shall not be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit) if, after giving effect thereto, (a) the Letter of Credit Exposure would exceed the Letter of Credit Commitment or (b) the Revolving Credit Exposure would exceed the Total Commitment Amount.  The issuance of each Letter of Credit shall confer upon each Bank the benefits and liabilities of a participation consisting of an undivided pro rata interest in the Letter of Credit to the extent of such Bank’s Commitment Percentage.
Each request for a Letter of Credit shall be delivered to Agent not later than 11:00 A.M. (Cleveland, Ohio time) three (3) Business Days prior to the day upon which the Letter of Credit is to be issued.  Each such request shall be in a form acceptable to Agent (and the Fronting Bank if the Fronting Bank is a Bank other than Agent) and specify the face amount thereof, whether such Letter of Credit is a commercial documentary or a standby Letter of Credit, the beneficiary, the intended date of issuance, the expiry date thereof (which date shall not be later than the last day of the Commitment Period, unless Borrower Cash Collateralizes such Letters of Credit in a manner reasonably acceptable to Agent), and the nature of the transaction to be supported thereby.  Concurrently with each such request, Borrower, any Guarantor of Payment for whose benefit the Letter of Credit is to be issued, or the Insurance Subsidiary, as appropriate, shall execute and deliver to the Fronting Bank an appropriate application and agreement, being in the standard form of the Fronting Bank for such letters of credit, as amended to conform to the provisions of this Agreement if required by Agent.  Agent shall give each Bank notice of each such request for a Letter of Credit.
In respect of each Letter of Credit and the drafts thereunder, if any, whether issued for the account of Borrower, a Guarantor of Payment or the Insurance Subsidiary, Borrower agrees (a) to pay to Agent, for the pro rata benefit of the Banks, a non-refundable commission based upon the face amount of the Letter of Credit, which shall be paid quarterly in arrears at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable LIBOR Margin (in effect on the date such Letter of Credit is issued or renewed) times the face amount of such Letter of Credit during such fiscal quarter (the “Letter of Credit Fee”); (b) to pay to Agent, for its own account as issuing bank, a fronting fee based upon the face amount of the Letter of Credit, which shall be paid quarterly in arrears, at a rate per annum equal to ten (10) basis points times the face amount of such Letter of Credit; and (c) to pay to the Fronting Bank, for its sole account, such other issuance, amendment, negotiation, draw, acceptance, telex, courier, postage and similar transactional fees as are generally charged by the Fronting Bank under its fee schedule as in effect from time to time.

31
NAI-1519170929v11        

Whenever a Letter of Credit is drawn, Borrower shall immediately reimburse the Fronting Bank for the amount drawn.  In the event that the amount drawn is not reimbursed by Borrower within one (1) Business Day of the drawing of such Letter of Credit, at the sole option of Agent (and the Fronting Bank, if the Fronting Bank is a Bank other than Agent), Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Revolving Loan, subject to the provisions of Section 2.1A, in the amount drawn.  Such Revolving Loan shall be evidenced by the Revolving Credit Notes.  Each Bank agrees to make a Revolving Loan on the date of such notice, subject to no conditions precedent whatsoever.  Each Bank acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to make a Revolving Loan pursuant to Section 2.1A when required by this Section 2.1C is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including, without limitation, the occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of Default, and that its payment to Agent, for the account of the Fronting Bank, of the proceeds of such Revolving Loan shall be made without any offset, abatement, recoupment, counterclaim, withholding or reduction whatsoever and whether or not such Bank’s Revolving Credit Commitment shall have been reduced or terminated.  Borrower irrevocably authorizes and instructs Agent to apply the proceeds of any borrowing pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse, in full, the Fronting Bank for the amount drawn on such Letter of Credit. Each such Revolving Loan shall be deemed to be a Base Rate Loan unless otherwise requested by and available to Borrower hereunder.  Each Bank is hereby authorized to record on its records relating to its Revolving Credit Note such Bank’s pro rata share of the amounts paid and not reimbursed on the Letters of Credit.
If, for any reason, Agent (or the Fronting Bank if the Fronting Bank is a Bank other than Agent) is unable to or, in the opinion of Agent, it is impracticable to, convert any Letter of Credit to a Revolving Loan pursuant to the preceding paragraph, Agent (or the Fronting Bank if the Fronting Bank is a Bank other than Agent) shall have the right to request that each Bank purchase a participation in the amount due with respect to such Letter of Credit, and Agent shall promptly notify each Bank thereof (by facsimile or telephone, confirmed in writing).  Upon such notice, but without further action, Agent (or the Fronting Bank if the Fronting Bank is a Bank other than Agent) hereby agrees to grant to each Bank, and each Bank hereby agrees to acquire from Agent (or the Fronting Bank if the Fronting Bank is a Bank other than Agent), an undivided participation interest in the amount due with respect to such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to such Bank’s Commitment Percentage of the aggregate principal amount of the amount due with respect to such Letter of Credit.  In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Bank hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to Agent (or the Fronting Bank if the Fronting Bank is a Bank other than Agent), for its sole account, such Bank’s ratable share of the amount due with respect to such Letter of Credit (determined in accordance with such Bank’s Commitment Percentage).  Each Bank acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in the amount due under any Letter of Credit that is drawn but not reimbursed by Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.1C is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including, without limitation, the occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of Default, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, recoupment, counterclaim, withholding or reduction whatsoever and whether or not such Bank’s Revolving Credit Commitment shall have been reduced or terminated.  Each Bank shall comply with its obligation under this Section 2.1C by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.2 with respect to Revolving Loans.  Each Bank is hereby authorized to record on its records such Bank’s pro rata share of the amounts paid and not reimbursed on the Letters of Credit.

SECTION 2.2  CONDITIONS TO LOANS AND LETTERS OF CREDIT.  The obligation of the Banks to make a Loan (other than any Credit Sweep Swing Line Loan), convert a LIBOR Loan or Base Rate Loan or continue a LIBOR Loan and of Agent to issue any Letter of Credit is conditioned, in the case of each borrowing, conversion or continuation of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit hereunder, upon:
(a)all conditions precedent as listed in Article IV hereof shall have been satisfied;
(b)with respect to Base Rate Loans, receipt by Agent of a Notice of Loan, such notice to be received by 2:00 P.M. (Cleveland, Ohio time) on the proposed date of borrowing or conversion, with respect to LIBOR Loans (other than Daily LIBOR Loans), by 2:00 P.M. (Cleveland, Ohio time) three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed date of borrowing, conversion or continuation and with respect to Daily LIBOR Loans by 2:00 P.M. (Cleveland, Ohio time) on the proposed date of borrowing.  Agent shall notify each Bank of the date, amount and initial Interest Period (if applicable) promptly upon the receipt of such notice, and, in any event, by 2:00 P.M. (Cleveland, Ohio time) on the date such notice is received.  On the date such Loan is to be made, each Bank shall provide Agent, not later than 3:00 P.M. (Cleveland, Ohio time), with the amount in federal or other immediately available funds, required of it;
(c)with respect to Letters of Credit, satisfaction of the notice provisions set forth in Section 2.1C hereof;
(d)Borrower’s request for (i) a Base Rate Loan shall be in an amount of not less than One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000), increased by increments of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000), (ii) a LIBOR Loan shall be in an amount of not less than One Million Dollars ($1,000,000), increased by increments of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) and (iii) a Swing Line Loan shall be in an amount of not less than One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000);
(e)the fact that no Default or Event of Default shall then exist or immediately after the making, conversion or continuation of the Loan or issuance of the Letter of Credit would exist; and
(f)the fact that each of the representations and warranties contained in Article VI hereof shall be true and correct with the same force and effect as if made on and as of the date of the making, conversion, or continuation of such Loan, or the issuance of the Letter of Credit, except to the extent that any thereof expressly relate to an earlier date.
At no time shall Borrower request that LIBOR Loans be outstanding for more than ten (10) different Interest Periods at any time.

33
NAI-1519170929v11        

Each request by Borrower for the making of a Loan, conversion of a LIBOR Loan or Base Rate Loan or continuation of a LIBOR Loan, or for the issuance of a Letter of Credit hereunder shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty by Borrower as of the date of such request as to the facts specified in (e) and (f) above.
Each request for a LIBOR Loan shall be irrevocable and binding on Borrower and Borrower shall indemnify Agent and the Banks against any loss or expense incurred by Agent or the Banks as a result of any failure by Borrower to consummate such transaction including, without limitation, any loss (including loss of anticipated profits) or expense incurred by reason of liquidation or re-employment of deposits or other funds acquired by the Banks to fund such LIBOR Loan.  A certificate as to the amount of such loss or expense submitted by the Banks to Borrower shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
SECTION 2.3  PAYMENT ON NOTES, ETC.  All payments of principal, interest and commitment and other fees shall be made to Agent in immediately available funds for the account of the Banks. Agent, within one (1) Business Day, shall distribute to each Bank its ratable share of the amount of principal, interest, and commitment and other fees received by it for the account of such Bank.  Each Bank shall record (a) any principal, interest or other payment, and (b) the principal amount of the Base Rate Loans and LIBOR Loans and all prepayments thereof and the applicable dates with respect thereto, by such method as such Bank may generally employ; provided, however, that failure to make any such entry shall in no way detract from Borrower’s obligations under each Note.  The aggregate unpaid amount of Loans set forth on the records of Agent shall be rebuttably presumptive evidence of the principal and interest owing and unpaid on each Note.  Whenever any payment to be made hereunder, including, without limitation, any payment to be made on any Note, shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall in each case be included in the computation of the interest payable on such Note; provided, however, that, with respect to any LIBOR Loan, if the next succeeding Business Day falls in the succeeding calendar month, such payment shall be made on the preceding Business Day and the relevant Interest Period shall be adjusted accordingly.
SECTION 2.4  PREPAYMENT.  Borrower shall have the right at any time or from time to time to prepay, on a pro rata basis for all of the Banks, all or any part of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, as designated by Borrower, plus interest accrued on the amount so prepaid to the date of such prepayment.  Borrower shall give Agent notice of prepayment of any Base Rate Loan by not later than 2:00 P.M. (Cleveland, Ohio time) on the Business Day such prepayment is to be made and notice of the prepayment of any LIBOR Loan (other than any Swing Line Loan) not later than 2:00 P.M. (Cleveland, Ohio time) three (3) Business Days before the Business Day on which such prepayment is to be made.  Prepayments of Base Rate Loans shall be without any premium or penalty, other than any prepayment fees, penalties or other charges that may be contained in any Hedge Agreement.  Each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount of at least, in the case of a LIBOR Loan (other than a Swing Line Loan), One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) (or, if less, the full amount of such LIBOR Loan), or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof.  Any prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall be accompanied by any amounts payable in respect thereof under Article III hereof.

34
NAI-1519170929v11        

SECTION 2.5  COMMITMENT AND OTHER FEES; REDUCTION OF COMMITMENT.
(a)Borrower shall pay to Agent, for the ratable account of the Banks, as a consideration for the Revolving Credit Commitment, a commitment fee from the date hereof to and including the last day of the Commitment Period, payable quarterly, equal to (a) the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate in effect on the payment date, times (b) (i) the Total Revolving Commitment Amount minus (ii) the average daily Revolving Credit Exposure (other than outstanding Swing Line Loans) during such quarter. The commitment fee shall be payable in arrears, on September 30, 2021 and on the last day of each succeeding March, June, September and December thereafter, and on the last day of the Commitment Period.
(b)Borrower shall pay to Agent, for its sole benefit, the agent fees agreed to by Agent and Borrower from time to time.
(c)Borrower may at any time or from time to time permanently reduce in whole or ratably (for all of the Banks) in part the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Banks hereunder to an amount not less than the then existing Revolving Credit Exposure, by giving notice to Agent not fewer than three (3) Business Days in advance of the proposed date of such reduction, provided that any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount for all of the Banks of not less than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000), increased by increments of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000). Agent shall promptly notify each Bank of the date of each such reduction and such Bank’s proportionate share thereof.  After each such reduction, the commitment fees payable hereunder shall be calculated upon the Total Revolving Commitment Amount as so reduced.  If Borrower reduces in whole the Total Revolving Commitment Amount of the Banks, on the effective date of such reduction (Borrower having prepaid in full the unpaid principal balance, if any, of the Revolving Credit Notes, together with all interest and commitment and other fees accrued and unpaid, and provided that no issued and outstanding Letters of Credit shall exist), all of the Revolving Credit Notes shall be delivered to Agent marked “Canceled” and Agent shall redeliver such Revolving Credit Notes to Borrower. Any partial reduction in the Commitment shall be effective during the remainder of the Commitment Period.
(d)At any time after the Effective Date and prior to the last day of the Commitment Period, Borrower may, by written notice to Agent, request that the Total Revolving Commitment Amount be increased up to the maximum principal amount of Four Hundred Twenty-Five Million Dollars ($425,000,000), so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such request and on the date of and after giving effect to any such increase.  Upon receipt of any such request, Agent shall deliver a copy of such request to each Bank.  Borrower shall set forth in such request the amount of the requested increase in the Total Revolving Commitment Amount and the date on which such increase is requested to become effective (which shall be not less than (ten) 10 Business Days nor more than sixty (60) days after the date of such request and that, in any event, must be at least ninety (90) days prior to the last day of the Commitment Period), and shall offer each Bank the opportunity to increase its Revolving Credit Commitment by its Commitment Percentage of the proposed increased amount.  Each Bank shall, by notice to Borrower and Agent given not more than ten (10) Business Days after the date of Agent’s notice, either agree to increase its Revolving Credit Commitment by all or a portion of the offered amount (each such Bank so agreeing being an 

35
NAI-1519170929v11        

“Increasing Lender”) or decline to increase its Revolving Credit Commitment (and any such Bank that does not deliver such a notice within such period of ten (10) Business Days shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Revolving Credit Commitment and each Bank so declining or being deemed to have declined being a “Non-Increasing Lender”).  If, on the tenth (10th) Business Day after Agent shall have delivered notice as set forth above, the Increasing Lenders shall have agreed pursuant to the preceding sentence to increase their Revolving Credit Commitments by an aggregate amount less than the increase in the Total Commitment Amount requested by Borrower, Borrower may arrange for one or more Persons that are acceptable to Agent (each such Person so agreeing being an “Augmenting Lender”), and Borrower and each Augmenting Lender shall execute all such documentation as Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence its Revolving Credit Commitment and/or its status as a Bank with a Revolving Credit Commitment hereunder.  Upon the execution of such documentation, each such Augmenting Lender shall become a party to this Agreement without any consent from the Banks of any kind.  Any increase in the Total Revolving Commitment Amount may be made in an amount that is less than the increase requested by Borrower if Borrower is unable to arrange for, or chooses not to arrange for, Augmenting Lenders, in the full amount.  Any fees charged by any Increasing Lender shall be based solely upon the increased amount of its Revolving Credit Commitment and shall not be in excess of ten (10) basis points.
Each of the parties hereto agrees that Agent may take any and all actions as may be reasonably necessary to ensure that after giving effect to any increase in the Total Revolving Commitment Amount pursuant to this Section 2.5(d), the outstanding Revolving Loans (if any) are held by the Banks in accordance with their new Commitment Percentages. This may be accomplished at the discretion of Agent in consultation with Borrower: (w) by requiring the outstanding Loans to be prepaid with the proceeds of new Loans; (x) by causing the Non-Increasing Lenders to assign portions of their outstanding Loans to Increasing Lenders and Augmenting Lenders; (y) by permitting the Loans outstanding at the time of any increase in the Total Revolving Commitment Amount pursuant to this Section 2.5(d) to remain outstanding until the last days of the respective Interest Periods therefor, even though the Banks would hold such Loans other than in accordance with their new Commitment Percentages; or (z) by any combination of the foregoing; provided, however that, Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to accomplish the foregoing without giving rise to, or to minimize, any indemnification obligations by Borrower pursuant to Article III hereof.
On the effective date of any increase in the Total Revolving Commitment Amount in accordance with this Section 2.5, Schedule 1 hereto shall be deemed automatically amended to reflect the new Revolving Credit Commitments and Commitment Percentages of each Bank. 
SECTION 2.6  COMPUTATION OF INTEREST AND FEES; DEFAULT RATE.  With the exception of Base Rate Loans, interest on Loans and commitment and other fees and charges hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year having three hundred sixty (360) days and calculated for the actual number of days elapsed. With respect to Base Rate Loans, interest shall be computed on the basis of a year having three hundred sixty-five (365) days or three hundred sixty-six (366) days, as the case may be, and calculated for the actual number of days elapsed.  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if an Event of Default shall occur hereunder, (a) the principal of each Note and the unpaid interest thereon shall bear interest, until paid, at the Default Rate; and (b) the fee for the aggregate undrawn face amount of all issued and outstanding Letters of Credit shall be increased from 

36
NAI-1519170929v11        

the Applicable LIBOR Margin then in effect to three percent (3%). In no event shall the rate of interest hereunder exceed the maximum rate allowable by law.
SECTION 2.7  MANDATORY PAYMENT.  If the Revolving Credit Exposure at any time exceeds the Total Revolving Commitment Amount, Borrower shall, as promptly as practicable, but in no event later than the next Business Day, prepay an aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Loans sufficient to bring the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Revolving Loans and the aggregate undrawn face amount of all issued and outstanding Letters of Credit within the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Banks.  Any prepayment of a LIBOR Loan pursuant to this Section 2.7 shall be accompanied by any amount required to be paid pursuant to Sections 3.4 and 3.8 hereof.
SECTION 2.8  DEFAULTING BANK.
1.Defaulting Bank Adjustments.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Bank becomes a Defaulting Bank, then, until such time as such Bank is no longer a Defaulting Bank, to the extent permitted by applicable law:
(a)Waivers and Amendments.  Such Defaulting Bank’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Required Banks;
(b)Defaulting Bank Waterfall.  Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Agent for the account of such Defaulting Bank (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VII or otherwise) or received by the Agent from a Defaulting Bank shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Bank to the Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Bank to any Fronting Bank or Swing Line Lender hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize the Fronting Banks’ Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Bank in accordance with this Section 2.8; fourth, as Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Bank has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Agent and Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Bank’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the Fronting Banks’ future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Bank with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with this Section 2.8; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Banks, the Fronting Banks or Swing Line Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Bank, the Fronting Banks or Swing Line Lender against such Defaulting Bank as a result of such Defaulting Bank’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by Borrower against such Defaulting Bank as a result of such Defaulting Bank’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Bank or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or Letter of Credit disbursements in respect of which such 

37
NAI-1519170929v11        

Defaulting Bank has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 2.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and Letter of Credit disbursements owed to, all Non-Defaulting Banks on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or Letter of Credit disbursements owed to, such Defaulting Bank until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letter of Credit obligations and Swing Line Loans are held by the Banks pro rata in accordance with the Commitments under the applicable facility without giving effect to Section 2.8(1)(d). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Bank that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Bank or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.8(1)(b) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Bank, and each Bank (including such Defaulting Bank) irrevocably consents hereto.
(c)Certain Fees. 
(A)    No Defaulting Bank shall be entitled to receive any commitment fee for any period during which that Bank is a Defaulting Bank (and Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Bank).
(B)    Each Defaulting Bank shall be entitled to receive Letter of Credit Fees for any period during which that Bank is a Defaulting Bank only to the extent allocable to its applicable percentage of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.8(1)(b).
(C)    With respect to any commitment fee or Letter of Credit Fees not required to be paid to any Defaulting Bank pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above, Borrower shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Bank that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Bank with respect to such Defaulting Bank’s participation in Letter of Credit obligations or Swing Line Loans that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Bank pursuant to clause (d) below, (y) pay to each Fronting Bank and Swing Line Lender, as applicable, the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Bank to the extent allocable to such Fronting Bank’s or Swing Line Lender’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Bank, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.
(d)Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure.  All or any part of such Defaulting Bank’s participation in Letter of Credit obligations and Swing Line Loans shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Banks in accordance with their respective applicable percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Bank’s Commitment) but only to the extent that (x) the conditions set forth in Section 2.2 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless Borrower shall have otherwise notified the Agent at such time, Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and (y) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Bank to exceed such Non-Defaulting Bank’s Revolving Credit Commitment.  Subject to Section 10.22, no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Bank arising from that Bank having become a Defaulting Bank, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Bank as a result of such Non-Defaulting Bank’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

38
NAI-1519170929v11        

(e)Cash Collateral, Repayment of Swing Line Loans.  If the reallocation described in clause (d) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, (x) first, prepay Swing Line Loans in an amount equal to the Swing Line Lenders’ Fronting Exposure and (y) second, Cash Collateralize the Fronting Banks’ Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.8(1)(b).
2.Defaulting Bank Cure.  If Borrower, the Agent and the Swing Line Lender and Fronting Bank agree in writing that a Bank is no longer a Defaulting Bank, the Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Bank will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Banks or take such other actions as the Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans to be held pro rata by the Banks in accordance with the Commitment Percentages (without giving effect to Section 2.8(1)(d), whereupon such Bank will cease to be a Defaulting Bank; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of Borrower while that Bank was a Defaulting Bank; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Bank to Bank will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Bank’s having been a Defaulting Bank.
3.    New Swing Line Loans/Letters of Credit.  So long as any Bank is a Defaulting Bank, (i) the Swing Line Lender shall not be required to fund any Swing Line Loans unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect to such Swing Line Loan and (ii) no Fronting Bank shall be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto.
ARTICLE III.
ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS RELATING TO
LIBOR LOANS; INCREASED CAPITAL; TAXES
SECTION 3.1  RESERVES OR DEPOSIT REQUIREMENTS, ETC.  If, at any time, there is a Change in Law, and the result of the foregoing is to increase the cost (whether by incurring a cost or adding to a cost) to a Bank of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any LIBOR Loan, or to increase the cost to a Bank or the Fronting Bank of participating in, issuing, or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum (whether principal, interest or any other amount) received or receivable by a Bank or the Fronting Bank with respect to a LIBOR Loan, then, upon demand by such Bank, Borrower shall pay to such Bank from time to time on Interest Adjustment Dates with respect to such LIBOR Loan, as additional consideration hereunder, additional amounts sufficient to fully compensate and indemnify such Bank for such increased cost or reduced amount, assuming (which assumption such Bank need not corroborate) such additional cost or reduced amount was allocable to such LIBOR Loan. A certificate as to the increased cost or reduced amount as a result of any event mentioned in this Section 3.1, setting forth the calculations therefor, shall be promptly submitted by such Bank to Borrower and shall, in the 

39
NAI-1519170929v11        

absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding as to the amount thereof. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, after any such demand for compensation by any Bank, Borrower, upon at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice to such Bank through Agent, may prepay any affected LIBOR Loan in full or convert such LIBOR Loan to a Base Rate Loan regardless of the Interest Period thereof.  Any such prepayment or conversion shall be accompanied by any amount required to be paid pursuant to Sections 3.4 and 3.8 hereof.  Each Bank shall notify Borrower as promptly as practicable (with a copy thereof delivered to Agent) of the existence of any event that will likely require the payment by Borrower of any such additional amount under this Section 3.1.
SECTION 3.2  TAXES.  
A.Defined Terms.  For purposes of this Section 3.2, the term “Bank” includes any Fronting Bank and the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.
B.Payments Free of Taxes.  Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Credit Party under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law.  If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Credit Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.2) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.
C.Payment of Other Taxes by Borrower.  The Credit Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.
D.Indemnification by Borrower.  The Credit Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 3.2) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient 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.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower by a Bank (with a copy to Agent), or by Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

40
NAI-1519170929v11        

E.Indemnification by the Banks.  Each Bank shall severally indemnify Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Bank (but only to the extent that any Credit Party has not already indemnified Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Credit Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Bank’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.11 relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Bank, in each case, that are payable or paid by 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 Bank by Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Each Bank hereby authorizes Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Bank under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by Agent to the Bank from any other source against any amount due to Agent under this paragraph (E).
F.Evidence of Payments.  As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Credit Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 3.2, such Credit Party shall deliver to 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 Agent.
G.Status of Banks.   Any Bank that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to Borrower and Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or Agent and at the time or times prescribed by applicable Law, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.  In addition, any Bank, if reasonably requested by Borrower or Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by Borrower or Agent as will enable Borrower or Agent to determine whether or not such Bank is subject to 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 3.2G(2)(a), (b) and (d) below) shall not be required if in the Bank’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Bank to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Bank.
2.Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that Borrower is a U.S. Person, 
(a)any Bank that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to Borrower and Agent on or prior to the date on which such Bank becomes a Bank under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Bank is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding Tax; 
(b)any Foreign Bank shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower and Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Bank becomes a Bank under this Agreement (and from time to 

41
NAI-1519170929v11        

time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:
(i)in the case of a Foreign Bank claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;
(ii)executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;
(iii)in the case of a Foreign Bank claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of ExhibitL- 1 to the effect that such Foreign Bank is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable; or
(iv)to the extent a Foreign Bank is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W- 8BEN-E, as applicable, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit L-2 or Exhibit L-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Bank is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Bank are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Bank may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit L-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;
(c)any Foreign Bank shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower and Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Bank becomes a Bank under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit Borrower or Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and
(d)if a payment made to a Bank under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Bank 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 Bank shall deliver to Borrower and Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or 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 Borrower or Agent as may be necessary for Borrower and Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Bank has complied with such Bank’s obligations under 

42
NAI-1519170929v11        

FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this clause (d), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
    Each Bank agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify Borrower and Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.
H.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 3.2 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.2), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 3.2 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including 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 over pursuant to this paragraph (H) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (H), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (H) to the extent that the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid.  This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
I.Survival.  Each party’s obligations under this Section 3.2 shall survive the resignation or replacement of Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Bank, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.
SECTION 3.3  BENCHMARK REPLACEMENT SETTING.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document:
A.Replacing USD LIBOR.  On March 5, 2021, ICE Benchmark Administration (“IBA”), the entity that calculates and publishes LIBOR, and the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”), the regulatory supervisor of IBA, made public statements regarding the future cessation of LIBOR.  According to the FCA, IBA will permanently cease publication of (i) the 1-week and 2-month USD LIBOR settings following the publication of such settings on December 31, 2021, and (ii) the overnight/Spot Next, 1-month, 3-month, 6-month and 12-month USD LIBOR settings, immediately following the publication of such settings on June 30, 2023. As a consequence, (x) on January 1, 2022, any option to select 1 week or 2-month USD LIBOR will no longer be available and (y) on the earliest of (i) July 1, 2023, (ii) the date that all Available Tenors of USD LIBOR have either permanently or indefinitely ceased to be provided by IBA or have been announced by the FCA pursuant to public statement or 

43
NAI-1519170929v11        

publication of information to be no longer representative and (iii) the Early Opt-in Effective Date, if the then-current Benchmark is USD LIBOR, the applicable Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark, in the case of both clauses (x) and (y), for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any setting of such Benchmark on such day and all subsequent settings without any amendment to, or further action by or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document.  If the Benchmark Replacement is Daily Simple SOFR, all interest payments in respect of such Loans will be payable on a quarterly basis.  
B.Replacing Other Benchmarks.  If any Benchmark Transition Event occurs after the date hereof (other than as described above in clause (A)) with respect to any Benchmark, the applicable Benchmark will be replaced with the applicable Benchmark Replacement for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting on the later of (i) 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to Banks and Borrower (together, if applicable, with an amendment to this Agreement implementing such Benchmark Replacement and any applicable Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes) or (ii) such other date as may be determined by Agent, in each case, without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, so long as Agent has not received, by such time (or, in the case of clause (ii) above, such time as may be specified by Agent as a deadline to receive objections, but in any case, no less than five (5) Business Days after the date such notice is provided to Banks and Borrower), written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Banks comprising the Required Banks or Borrower; provided, however, that in the event that the then-current Benchmark is not a SOFR-based rate, then the Benchmark Replacement shall be determined in accordance with clause (1)(a) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement’ unless Agent has determined that neither of such alternative rates is available.  At any time that the administrator of any then-current Benchmark has permanently or indefinitely ceased to provide such Benchmark or such Benchmark has been announced by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark pursuant to public statement or publication of information to be no longer representative of the underlying market and economic reality that such Benchmark is intended to measure and that representativeness will not be restored, the Borrower may revoke any request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Loans to be made, converted or continued that would bear interest by reference to such Benchmark until the Borrower’s receipt of notice from Agent that a Benchmark Replacement has replaced such Benchmark, and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans.  During the period referenced in the foregoing sentence, the component of the Base Rate based upon the applicable Benchmark will not be used in any determination of the Base Rate.  
C.Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes.  In connection with the implementation and administration of a Benchmark Replacement (whether in connection with the replacement of USD LIBOR or any future Benchmark), Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

44
NAI-1519170929v11        

D.Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations.  Agent will promptly notify Borrower and Banks of (i) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement and (ii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes.  Any determination, decision or election that may be made by Agent pursuant to this Section 3.3 including, without limitation, any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment, or implementation of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, the timing of implementation of any Benchmark Replacement or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding on all parties hereto absent manifest error and may be made in its sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 3.3, and shall not be a basis of any claim of liability of any kind or nature by any party hereto, all such claims being hereby waived individually by each party hereto.
E.Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark.  At any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if a then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR or USD LIBOR, or any alternate rate selected in an Early Opt-in Election), then Agent may remove any tenor of such Benchmark that is unavailable or non-representative for such Benchmark (including any Benchmark Replacement) settings and (ii) if such tenor becomes available or representative, Agent may reinstate any previously removed tenor for such Benchmark (including any Benchmark Replacement) settings.
F.Certain Defined Terms.  As used in this Section 3.3:
“Available Tenor” means, as of any date of determination and with respect to the then-current Benchmark, as applicable, (x) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate, any tenor for such Benchmark that is or may be used for determining the length of an Interest Period or (y) otherwise, any payment period for interest calculated with reference to such Benchmark, as applicable, pursuant to this Agreement as of such date.
“Benchmark” means, initially, USD LIBOR; provided that if a replacement for the Benchmark has occurred pursuant to this Section 3.3, then “Benchmark” means the applicable Benchmark Replacement to the extent that such Benchmark Replacement has replaced such prior benchmark rate. Any reference to “Benchmark” shall include, as applicable, the published component used in the calculation thereof.
“Benchmark Replacement” means, for any Available Tenor:
(1)    for purposes of clause (A) of this Section 3.3, the first alternative set forth below that can be determined by Agent for the applicable Benchmark: 
    (a)     the sum of: (i) Term SOFR and (ii) 0.11448% (11.448 basis points) for an Available Tenor of one-month’s duration, 0.26161% (26.161 basis points) for an Available Tenor of three-months’ duration, and 0.42826% (42.826 basis points) for an Available Tenor of six-months’ duration; provided, that, if the Borrower has provided a notification to Agent in writing on or prior to the date on which the Benchmark Replacement will become effective that the Borrower has a Hedge Agreement in place with respect to any of the Loans as of the date of such notice (which such notification 

45
NAI-1519170929v11        

Agent shall be entitled to rely upon and shall have no duty or obligation to ascertain the correctness or completeness of), then Agent, in its sole discretion, may decide not to determine the Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this clause (1)(a) for such Benchmark Transition Event or Early Opt-in Election, as applicable; or
    (b)    the sum of: (i) Daily Simple SOFR and (ii) the spread adjustment for an Available Tenor of three-month’s duration (0.26161% (26.161 basis points)); provided, however, that if an Early Opt-in Election has been made, the Benchmark Replacement will be the Benchmark selected in connection with such Early Opt-in Election; and 
(2)    for purposes of clause (B) of this Section 3.3, the sum of: (a) the alternate benchmark rate selected by Agent as the replacement for the relevant then-current Benchmark for the applicable Corresponding Tenor giving due consideration to (i) any selection or recommendation of a replacement benchmark rate or the mechanism for determining such a rate by the Relevant Governmental Body or (ii) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a benchmark rate as a replacement for the relevant then-current Benchmark for syndicated credit facilities denominated in U.S. dollars at such time and (b) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment;
provided that, if the Benchmark Replacement as determined pursuant to clause (1) or (2) above would be less than the Floor, the Benchmark Replacement will be deemed to be the Floor for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
“Benchmark Replacement Adjustment” means, with respect to any replacement of a then-current Benchmark with an Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for any applicable Interest Period and Available Tenor for any setting of such Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement, for purposes of clause (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement,” the spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) that has been selected by Agent and the Borrower for the applicable Corresponding Tenor giving due consideration to (i) any selection or recommendation of a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement by the Relevant Governmental Body and/or (ii) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for syndicated credit facilities denominated in U.S. dollars at such time.
“Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes” means, with respect to any Benchmark Replacement, any technical, administrative or operational changes (including changes to the definition of “Base Rate,” the definition of “Business Day,” the definition of “Interest Period,” timing and frequency of determining rates and making payments of interest, timing of borrowing requests or prepayment, conversion or continuation notices, the applicability and length of lookback periods, the applicability of breakage provisions, and other technical, administrative or operational matters) that Agent decides may be appropriate to reflect the adoption and implementation of such Benchmark Replacement and to permit the administration thereof by Agent in a manner substantially consistent with market practice (or, if Agent decides that adoption of any portion of such market practice is not 

46
NAI-1519170929v11        

administratively feasible or if Agent determines that no market practice for the administration of such Benchmark Replacement exists, in such other manner of administration as Agent decides is reasonably necessary in connection with the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents).
“Benchmark Transition Event” means, with respect to any then-current Benchmark (other than USD LIBOR), the occurrence of a public statement or publication of information by or on behalf of the administrator of the then-current Benchmark, the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, an insolvency official with jurisdiction over the administrator for such Benchmark, a resolution authority with jurisdiction over the administrator for such Benchmark or a court or an entity with similar insolvency or resolution authority over the administrator for such Benchmark, announcing or stating that (a) such administrator has ceased or will cease on a specified date to provide all Available Tenors of such Benchmark, permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide any Available Tenor of such Benchmark or (b) all Available Tenors of such Benchmark are or will no longer be representative of the underlying market and economic reality that such Benchmark is intended to measure and that representativeness will not be restored. 
“Corresponding Tenor” with respect to any Available Tenor means, as applicable, either a tenor (including overnight) or an interest payment period having approximately the same length (disregarding business day adjustment) as such Available Tenor.
“Daily Simple SOFR” means, for any day, SOFR, with the conventions for this rate (which will include a lookback) being established by Agent in accordance with the conventions for this rate recommended by the Relevant Governmental Body for determining “Daily Simple SOFR” for syndicated business loans; provided, that if Agent decides that any such convention is not administratively feasible for Agent, then Agent may establish another convention in its reasonable discretion.
“Early Opt-in Effective Date” means, with respect to any Early Opt-in Election, the sixth (6th) Business Day after the date notice of such Early Opt-in Election is provided to Banks, so long as Agent has not received, by 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Early Opt-in Election is provided to Banks, written notice of objection to such Early Opt-in Election from Banks comprising the Required Banks.
 “Early Opt-in Election” means the occurrence of:
(1)a notification by Agent to each of the other parties hereto that at least five currently outstanding U.S. dollar-denominated syndicated credit facilities at such time incorporate or adopt (as a result of amendment or as originally executed) either a SOFR-based rate (including SOFR, Term  SOFR or any other rate based upon SOFR) as a benchmark rate or an alternate benchmark interest rate to replace USD LIBOR (and such syndicated credit facilities are identified in such notice and are publicly available for review), and
(2)the joint election by Agent and the Borrower to trigger a fallback from USD LIBOR and the provision by Agent of written notice of such election to the Banks.

47
NAI-1519170929v11        

 “Floor” means the benchmark rate floor, if any, provided in this Agreement initially (as of the execution of this Agreement, the modification, amendment or renewal of this Agreement or otherwise) with respect to USD LIBOR.
“Relevant Governmental Body” means, the Federal Reserve Board and/or the NYFRB, or a committee officially endorsed or convened by the Federal Reserve Board and/or the NYFRB or, in each case, any successor thereto.
“USD LIBOR” means the London interbank offered rate for U.S. dollars.
“Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement” means the applicable Benchmark Replacement excluding the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment. 
SECTION 3.4  INDEMNITY.  Without prejudice to any other provisions of this Article III and without duplication of any amounts paid by Borrower under Section 3.8, Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify each Bank against any loss or expense that such Bank may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) any default by Borrower in payment when due of any amount hereunder in respect of any LIBOR Loan, or (b) the failure by Borrower to consummate the borrowing of any LIBOR Loan after making a request therefor, including, but not limited to, any loss of profit, premium or penalty incurred by such Bank in respect of funds borrowed by it for the purpose of making or maintaining such LIBOR Loan, as determined by such Bank in the exercise of its sole but reasonable discretion. A certificate as to any such loss or expense shall be promptly submitted by such Bank to Borrower and shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding as to the amount thereof.
SECTION 3.5  CHANGES IN LAW RENDERING LIBOR LOANS UNLAWFUL.  If at any time there is a Change in Law, which shall make it unlawful for any Bank to fund any LIBOR Loan that it is committed to make hereunder with moneys obtained in the eurodollar market, the commitment of such Bank to fund such LIBOR Loan shall, upon the happening of such event forthwith be suspended for the duration of such illegality, and such Bank shall by written notice to Borrower and Agent declare that its commitment with respect to such LIBOR Loan has been so suspended and, if and when such illegality ceases to exist, such suspension shall cease and such Bank shall similarly notify Borrower and Agent.  If any such Change in Law shall make it unlawful for any Bank to continue in effect the funding in the applicable eurodollar market of any LIBOR Loan previously made by it hereunder, such Bank shall, upon the happening of such event, notify Borrower, Agent and the other Banks thereof in writing stating the reasons therefor, and Borrower shall, on the earlier of (a) the last day of the then current Interest Period or (b) if required by such law, regulation or interpretation, on such date as shall be specified in such notice, either convert such LIBOR Loan to a Base Rate Loan or prepay such LIBOR Loan to the Banks in full.  Any such prepayment or conversion shall be accompanied by any amount required to be paid pursuant to Sections 3.4 and 3.8 hereof.
SECTION 3.6  FUNDING.  Each Bank may, but shall not be required to, make LIBOR Loans hereunder with funds obtained outside the United States.
SECTION 3.7  CAPITAL ADEQUACY.  If any Bank shall have determined, after the Effective Date, there is a Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements, which has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Bank’s capital (or the capital of its holding company) as a 

48
NAI-1519170929v11        

consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Bank (or its holding company) could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Bank’s policies or the policies of its holding company with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Bank to be material, then from time to time, within ten (10) days after demand by such Bank (with a copy to Agent), Borrower shall pay to such Bank such additional amount or amounts as shall compensate such Bank (or its holding company) for such reduction.  A certificate of any Bank claiming compensation under this Section 3.7 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, such Bank may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. Failure on the part of any Bank to demand compensation for any reduction in return on capital with respect to any period shall not constitute a waiver of such Bank’s rights to demand compensation for any reduction in return on capital in such period or in any other period.

(b)INTEREST COVERAGE RATIO.  Borrower shall not permit at any time the Interest Coverage Ratio to be less than 3.00 to 1.00.

54
NAI-1519170929v11        

Restrictive Covenant is to become binding on Borrower, reflecting compliance with such More Restrictive Covenant during such period, this Agreement shall be deemed to include such Amended More Restrictive Covenant and the More Restrictive Covenant amended by such Amended More Restrictive Covenant shall be deemed deleted, and (iii) upon (x) the amendment of any More Restrictive Covenant or Amended More Restrictive Covenant in a manner that is less restrictive than contained in this Section 5.7 and (y) effective upon the delivery of a Compliance Certificate in accordance with Section 5.3(c) for the period in which such amendment is to become binding on Borrower, reflecting compliance with such More Restrictive Covenant or Amended More Restrictive Covenant during such period, any such covenant so incorporated herein shall be deemed deleted and the provisions hereof shall thereupon be those in effect prior to the date such More Restrictive Covenant first became binding on Borrower; provided, further and for the avoidance of doubt, (A) this Section 5.7(b) shall apply separately to each More Restrictive Covenant and Amended More Restrictive Covenant contained in a Material Indebtedness Agreement and (B) to the extent any More Restrictive Covenant or Amended More Restrictive Covenant (each a “Subject More Restrictive Covenant”) is deemed amended or deleted pursuant to clauses (i) through (iii) above, the provisions hereof shall thereupon be those in effect as of the date hereof and as amended (including as amended in connection with any other More Restrictive Covenant or Amended More Restrictive Covenant) other than amendments on account of the Subject More Restrictive Covenant.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment to this Agreement pursuant to this clause (b) as the result of any More Restrictive Covenant or Amended More Restrictive Covenant ceasing to be in effect or being deleted, amended or otherwise modified shall cause any covenant or Event of Default in this Agreement to be less restrictive as to the Borrower or its Subsidiaries than such covenant or Event of Default as contained in this Agreement as in effect on the date hereof, and as amended other than as the result of the application of the first sentence of this clause (b) originally caused by such More Restrictive Covenant or Amended More Restrictive Covenant in such Material Indebtedness Agreement.

result in material adverse tax consequences for Borrower or any U.S. Subsidiary as determined by Borrower in consultation with Agent.  In the event that any Person becomes a Material Subsidiary at any time, Borrower shall provide Agent and the Banks with prompt written notice thereof.
SECTION 5.22  KEEPWELL.

Each Company is a corporation, limited liability company or partnership  duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing (or its equivalent) under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization and is duly qualified and authorized to do business and is in good standing as a foreign corporation, limited liability company or partnership in the jurisdictions where the character of its property or its business activities makes such qualification necessary, except where the failure to so qualify will not cause or result in a Material Adverse Effect. Schedule 6.1 hereto sets forth, as of the Effective Date, each Subsidiary of Borrower, its jurisdiction of organization, the location of its chief executive offices, its principal place of business and the jurisdictions where it is qualified as a foreign corporation, limited liability company or partnership.  Borrower owns directly or indirectly all of the equity interests of each of its Subsidiaries.
SECTION 6.2  CORPORATE AUTHORITY.  Borrower has the right and power and is duly authorized and empowered to enter into, execute and deliver the Loan Documents to which it is a party and to perform and observe the provisions of the Loan Documents.  The Loan Documents to which Borrower is a party have been duly authorized and approved by Borrower’s Board of Directors and are the valid and binding obligations of Borrower, enforceable against Borrower in accordance with their respective terms.  The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents will not conflict with nor result in any breach in any of the provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation of any Lien (other than Liens permitted under Section 5.9 of this Agreement) upon any assets or property of Borrower under the provisions of, Borrower’s Organizational Documents or any agreement.
SECTIO 6.3  COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS.  Each Company:
(a)holds all material permits, certificates, licenses, orders, registrations, franchises, authorizations, and other approvals from federal, state, local, and foreign governmental and regulatory bodies necessary for the conduct of its business and is in compliance with all applicable laws relating thereto;
(b)is in compliance with all material federal, state, local, or foreign applicable statutes, rules, regulations, and orders including, without limitation, those relating to environmental protection, occupational safety and health, and equal employment practices; and

(c)is not in violation of or in default under any material agreement to which it is a party or by which its assets are subject or bound.
SECTION 6.4  LITIGATION AND ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEEDINGS.  Except as disclosed on Schedule 6.4 hereto, to the best of Borrower’s knowledge, there are (a) no lawsuits, actions, investigations, or other proceedings pending or threatened against any Company, or in respect of which any Company may have any liability, in any court or before any governmental authority, arbitration board, or other tribunal, (b) no orders, writs, injunctions, judgments, or decrees of any court or government agency or instrumentality to which any Company is a party or by which the property or assets of any Company are bound, and (c) no grievances, disputes, or controversies outstanding with any union or other organization of the employees of any Company, or threats of work stoppage, strike, or pending demands for collective bargaining, which, as to subsections (a) through (c) above, would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the business, operation or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Companies taken as a whole.
SECTION 6.5  TITLE TO ASSETS.  Each Company has good title to and ownership of all property it purports to own, which property is free and clear of all Liens, except those permitted under Section 5.9 hereof.

No Company has entered into any contract or agreement that exists on or after the Effective Date that would prohibit Agent or the Banks from acquiring a security interest, mortgage or other Lien on, or a collateral assignment of, any of the property or assets of any Company, other than restrictions or conditions imposed by any agreement relating to secured Indebtedness permitted hereunder, so long as such restrictions or conditions apply only to the property or assets securing such Indebtedness.
SECTION 6.7  TAX RETURNS.  All federal, state and local Tax returns and other reports required by law to be filed in respect of the income, business, properties and employees of each Company have been filed and all Taxes, assessments, fees and other governmental charges that are due and payable have been paid, except for (i) those being contested in good faith by appropriate and timely proceedings or (ii) where the failure to do so does not and will not cause or result in a Material Adverse Effect.  The provision for taxes on the books of each Company is adequate for all years not closed by applicable statutes and for the current fiscal year.
SECTION 6.8  ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS.  Each Company is in material compliance with any and all Environmental Laws, including, without limitation, all Environmental Laws in all jurisdictions in which any Company owns or operates, or has owned or operated, a facility or site, arranges or has arranged for disposal or treatment of hazardous substances, solid waste or other wastes, accepts or has accepted for transport any hazardous substances, solid waste or other wastes or holds or has held any interest in real property or otherwise. No material litigation or proceeding arising under, relating to or in connection with any Environmental Law is pending or, to the best knowledge of each Company, threatened, against any Company, any real property in which any Company holds or has held an interest 

65
NAI-1519170929v11        

or any past or present operation of any Company. No release, threatened release or disposal of any material amount of hazardous waste, solid waste or other wastes is occurring, or has occurred (other than those that are currently being cleaned up in accordance with Environmental Laws), on, under or to any real property in which any Company holds any interest or performs any of its operations, in violation of any Environmental Law. As used in this Section 6.8, “litigation or proceeding” means any demand, claim, notice, suit, suit in equity, action, administrative action, investigation or inquiry whether brought by any governmental authority, private Person or otherwise.
SECTION 6.9  CONTINUED BUSINESS.  There exists no actual, pending, or, to Borrower’s knowledge, any threatened termination, cancellation or limitation of, or any modification or change in the business relationship of any Company and any customer or supplier, or any group of customers or suppliers, whose purchases or supplies, if terminated, cancelled or limited would have a Material Adverse Effect, and there exists no present condition or state of facts or circumstances that would materially affect adversely any Company in any respect or prevent a Company from conducting such business or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in substantially the same manner in which it was previously conducted.
SECTION 6.10  EMPLOYEE BENEFITS PLANS.  Schedule 6.10 hereto identifies each ERISA Plan.  Since the Effective Date, no ERISA Event has occurred or is expected to occur with respect to an ERISA Plan that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  Full payment has been made of all amounts which a Controlled Group member is required, under applicable law or under the governing documents, to have been paid as a contribution to or a benefit under each ERISA Plan.  The liability of each Controlled Group member with respect to each ERISA Plan has been funded based upon reasonable and proper actuarial assumptions and in accordance with applicable law, has been fully insured, or has been fully reserved for on its financial statements.  No changes have occurred or are expected to occur that would cause a material increase in the cost of providing benefits under the ERISA Plan that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  With respect to each ERISA Plan that is intended to be qualified under Code Section 401(a): (a) the ERISA Plan and any associated trust operationally comply with the applicable requirements of Code Section 401(a), (b) the ERISA Plan and any associated trust have been amended to comply with all such requirements as currently in effect, other than those requirements for which a retroactive amendment can be made within the “remedial amendment period” available under Code Section 401(b) (as extended under Treasury Regulations and other Treasury pronouncements upon which taxpayers may rely), (c) the ERISA Plan and any associated trust have received a favorable determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service stating that the ERISA Plan qualifies under Code Section 401(a), that the associated trust qualifies under Code Section 501(a) and, if applicable, that any employee stock ownership plan under the ERISA Plan qualifies under Code Section 4975(e)(7), unless the ERISA Plan was first adopted at a time for which the above-described “remedial amendment period” has not yet expired, (d) the ERISA Plan currently satisfies the requirements of Code Section 410(b), without regard to any retroactive amendment that may be made within the above-described “remedial amendment period”, and (e) no contribution made to the ERISA Plan is subject to an excise tax under Code Section 4972.  With respect to all Pension Plans, the aggregate “accumulated benefit obligation” of Controlled Group members with respect to such Pension Plans (as determined in accordance with Statement of Accounting Standards No. 87, “Employers’ Accounting for Pensions”) does not exceed the aggregate fair market value of all Pension Plan assets by more than 15% of Consolidated Net Worth. If all Controlled Group members withdrew from all 

66
NAI-1519170929v11        

Multiemployer Plans in a “complete withdrawal” (within the meaning of ERISA Section 4203) such withdrawal would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.
SECTION 6.11  CONSENTS OR APPROVALS.  No consent, approval or authorization of, or filing, registration or qualification with, any governmental authority or any other Person is required to be obtained or completed by Borrower in connection with the execution, delivery or performance of any of the Loan Documents, that has not already been obtained or completed.
SECTION 6.12  SOLVENCY.  Borrower has received consideration that is the reasonable equivalent value of the obligations and liabilities that Borrower has incurred to the Banks. Borrower is not insolvent as defined in any applicable state or federal statute, nor will Borrower be rendered insolvent by the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents to Agent and the Banks. Borrower is not engaged or about to engage in any business or transaction for which the assets retained by it are or will be an unreasonably small amount of capital, taking into consideration the obligations to Agent and the Banks incurred hereunder. Borrower does not intend to, nor does it believe that it will, incur debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature.
SECTION 6.13  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.  The audited Consolidated financial statements of Borrower for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, and the unaudited Consolidated interim financial statements of Borrower for the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2021 and June 30, 2021, furnished to Agent and the Banks, are true and complete, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, and fairly present the Companies’ financial condition as of the date of such financial statements and the results of their operations for the periods then ending.  Since the date of such statements, there has been no material adverse change in any Company’s financial condition, properties or business nor any material change in any Company’s accounting procedures.
SECTION 6.14  REGULATIONS.  Borrower is not engaged principally or as one of its important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any “margin stock” (within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System of the United States of America). Neither the granting of any Loan (or any conversion thereof) nor the use of the proceeds of any Loan will violate, or be inconsistent with, the provisions of Regulation U or X of said Board of Governors.
SECTION 6.15  INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY.  Each Company owns, possesses, or has the right to use all of the patents, patent applications, trademarks, service marks, copyrights, licenses, and rights with respect to the foregoing necessary for the conduct of its business without any known conflict with the rights of others.
SECTION 6.16  INSURANCE.  Each Company maintains with financially sound and reputable insurers insurance with coverage and limits as required by law and as is customary with persons engaged in the same businesses as the Companies.
SECTION 6.17  ACCURATE AND COMPLETE STATEMENTS.  Neither the Loan Documents nor any written statement made by any Company in connection with any of the Loan Documents contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits a material fact necessary to make the statements contained therein or in the Loan Documents not misleading; provided, that with respect to 

67
NAI-1519170929v11        

projected financial information, the Borrower represents only that such information was prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed by the Borrower to be reasonable at the time.  After due inquiry by Borrower, there is no known fact that any Company has not disclosed to Agent and the Banks that has or would have a Material Adverse Effect.
SECTION 6.18  DEFAULTS.  No Default or Event of Default exists hereunder, nor will any begin to exist immediately after the execution and delivery hereof.
SECTION 6.19  ANTI-TERRORISM LAW, ANTI-CORRUPTION LAW AND SANCTIONS COMPLIANCE.  Each Credit Party and each Subsidiary of each Credit Party and their respective officers and employees and, to the knowledge of the Credit Parties, their respective directors and agents that are Controlled by a Credit Party or its Subsidiaries, is and will remain in compliance in all material respects with all applicable Anti-Corruption Laws and Sanctions.  No Credit Party and no Subsidiary of a Credit Party or any officer or employees or, to the knowledge of the Credit Parties, any of their respective directors or agents (i) is a Person designated by the U.S. government on the list of the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons (the “SDN List”) with which a U.S. Person cannot deal with or otherwise engage in business transactions or is the subject of any list-based or territorial Sanctions maintained by the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”), the U.S. Department of State, or the Global Affairs Canada, or by the United Nations Security Council, the European Union or any European Union member state, or (ii) is controlled by (including without limitation by virtue of such person being a director or owning voting shares or interests), or acts, directly or indirectly, for or on behalf of, any person or entity on the SDN List or a foreign government that is the target of Sanctions such that the entry into, or performance under, this Agreement or any other Loan Document would be prohibited under U.S. law.  The Credit Parties and each of their Subsidiaries are in compliance with (a) the Trading with the Enemy Act, and each of the foreign assets control regulations of the United States Treasury Department (31 CFR, Subtitle B Chapter V, as amended) and any other enabling legislation or executive order relating thereto, (b) the Patriot Act and (c) other federal or state laws relating to “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations.  No part of the proceeds of any Loan will be used directly or indirectly, 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 government official or employee, political party, official of a political party, candidate for political office, or anyone else acting in an official capacity, in order to obtain, retain or direct business or obtain any improper advantage, in violation of any Anti-Corruption Laws.

The occurrence of one or more ERISA Events that (a) the Required Banks determine could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, or (b) results in a Lien on any of the assets of any Company in excess, for all such Liens, of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000).
SECTION 7.7  CHANGE IN CONTROL.  If any Change in Control shall occur.
SECTION 7.8  MONEY JUDGMENT.

SECTION 7.9  MATERIAL ADVERSE CHANGE.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a write down in equity of up to Twelve Million Dollars ($12,000,000) due to Financial Accounting Standards Board changes to pension accounting shall not constitute a Material Adverse Effect.

70
NAI-1519170929v11        

(a)terminate the Commitment and the credits hereby established, if not previously terminated, and, immediately upon such election, the obligations of the Banks, and each thereof, to make any further Loan and the obligation of the Fronting Bank to issue any Letter of Credit hereunder immediately shall be terminated, and/or
(b)accelerate the maturity of all of the Debt (if the Debt is not already due and payable), whereupon all of the Debt shall become and thereafter be immediately due and payable in full without any presentment or demand and without any further or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by Borrower.
SECTION 8.2  AUTOMATIC DEFAULTS.  If any Event of Default referred to in Section 7.11 hereof shall occur:
(a)all of the Commitment and the credits hereby established shall automatically and immediately terminate, if not previously terminated, and no Bank thereafter shall be under any obligation to grant any further Loan, nor shall the Fronting Bank be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit hereunder, and
(b)the outstanding principal, interest and any other amounts on all of the Notes, and all of the other Debt to the Banks, shall thereupon become and thereafter be immediately due and payable in full (if the Debt is not already due and payable), all without any presentment, demand or notice of any kind, which are hereby waived by Borrower.
SECTION 8.3  LETTERS OF CREDIT.  If the maturity of the Notes is accelerated pursuant to Sections 8.1 or 8.2 hereof, Borrower shall immediately deposit with Agent, as security for Borrower’s and any Guarantor of Payment’s obligations to reimburse Agent and the Banks for any then outstanding Letters of Credit, cash equal to the sum of the aggregate undrawn balance of any then outstanding Letters of Credit.  Agent and the Banks are hereby authorized, at their option, to deduct any and all such amounts from any deposit balances then owing by any Bank to or for the credit or account of any Company, as security for Borrower’s and any Guarantor of Payment’s obligations to reimburse Agent and the Banks for any then outstanding Letters of Credit.
SECTION 8.4  OFFSETS.

71
NAI-1519170929v11        

SECTION 8.5  EQUALIZATION PROVISION.  Each Bank agrees with the other Banks that if it, at any time, shall obtain any Advantage over the other Banks or any thereof in respect of the Debt (except under Article III hereof), it shall purchase from the other Banks, for cash and at par, such additional participation in the Debt as shall be necessary to nullify the Advantage. If any such Advantage resulting in the purchase of an additional participation as aforesaid shall be recovered in whole or in part from the Bank receiving the Advantage, each such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price restored (but without interest unless the Bank receiving the Advantage is required to pay interest on the Advantage to the Person recovering the Advantage from such Bank) ratably to the extent of the recovery.  Each Bank further agrees with the other Banks that if it at any time shall receive any payment for or on behalf of Borrower on any indebtedness owing by Borrower to that Bank by reason of offset of any deposit or other indebtedness, it will apply such payment first to any and all Debt owing by Borrower to that Bank (including, without limitation, any participation purchased or to be purchased pursuant to this Section 8.5 or any other Section of this Agreement).  Borrower agrees that any Bank so purchasing a participation from the other Banks or any thereof pursuant to this Section 8.5 may exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Bank was a direct creditor of Borrower in the amount of such participation.
ARTICLE IX. 
THE AGENT
The Banks authorize KeyBank and KeyBank hereby agrees to act as agent for the Banks in respect of this Agreement upon the terms and conditions set forth elsewhere in this Agreement, and upon the following terms and conditions:
SECTION 9.1  APPOINTMENT AND AUTHORIZATION.  Each Bank hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers hereunder as are delegated to Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Neither Agent nor any of its affiliates, directors, officers, attorneys or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or in connection herewith, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction.  The provisions of this Article IX are solely for the benefit of the Agent and the Banks, and the Borrower shall not have rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of such provisions.  It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the 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 as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.
SECTION 9.2  NOTE HOLDERS.  Agent may treat the payee of any Note as the holder thereof until written notice of transfer shall have been filed with it, signed by such payee and in form satisfactory to Agent.
SECTION 9.3  CONSULTATION WITH COUNSEL.  Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it and 

72
NAI-1519170929v11        

shall not be liable for any action taken or suffered in good faith by it in accordance with the opinion of such counsel.
SECTION 9.4  DOCUMENTS.  Agent shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to examine into or pass upon the validity, effectiveness, genuineness or value of any Loan Documents or any other Related Writing furnished pursuant hereto or in connection herewith or the value of any collateral obtained hereunder, and Agent shall be entitled to assume that the same are valid, effective and genuine and what they purport to be.
SECTION 9.5  AGENT AND AFFILIATES.  With respect to the Loans, Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not Agent, and Agent and its affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for, and generally engage in any kind of business with any Company or any affiliate thereof.
SECTION 9.6  KNOWLEDGE OF DEFAULT.  It is expressly understood and agreed that Agent shall be entitled to assume that no Default or Event of Default has occurred, unless Agent has been notified by Borrower pursuant to Section 5.15 hereof or by a Bank in writing that such Bank believes that a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and specifying the nature thereof.
SECTION 9.7  ACTION BY AGENT.  So long as Agent shall be entitled, pursuant to Section 9.6 hereof, to assume that no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Agent shall be entitled to use its discretion with respect to exercising or refraining from exercising any rights that may be vested in it by, or with respect to taking or refraining from taking any action or actions that it may be able to take under or in respect of, this Agreement. Agent shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement by acting upon any notice, certificate, warranty or other writing (including any electronic message, internet, or intranet website posting or other distribution) or instrument believed by it to be genuine or authentic or to be signed by the proper party or parties, or with respect to anything that it may do or refrain from doing in the reasonable exercise of its judgment, or that may seem to it to be necessary or desirable in the premises. The Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon.  In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance, extension, renewal or increase of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Bank, the Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Bank unless the Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Bank prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit.
SECTION 9.8  NOTICES, DEFAULT, ETC.  In the event that Agent shall have acquired actual knowledge of any Default or Event of Default, Agent shall promptly notify the Banks and shall take such action and assert such rights under this Agreement as the Required Banks shall direct and Agent shall inform the other Banks in writing of the action taken. Agent may take such action and assert such rights as it deems to be advisable, in its discretion, for the protection of the interests of the holders of the Notes.
SECTION 9.9  INDEMNIFICATION OF AGENT.  The Banks agree to indemnify Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by Borrower) ratably, according to their respective Commitment Percentages, 

73
NAI-1519170929v11        

from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against Agent in its capacity as agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any Loan Document or any action taken or omitted by Agent with respect to this Agreement or any Loan Document, provided that no Bank shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including attorneys’ fees) or disbursements resulting from Agent’s gross negligence, willful misconduct or from any action taken or omitted by Agent in any capacity other than as agent under this Agreement in each case, as determined by a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction.
SECTION 9.10  RESIGNATION OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT.  
(a)The Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Banks and the Borrower.  Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Banks shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrower (so long as no Default or Event of Default then exists), to appoint a successor.  If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Banks and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Banks) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of the Banks, appoint a successor Agent; provided that in no event shall any such successor Agent be a Defaulting Bank.  Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.
(b)If the Person serving as Agent is a Defaulting Bank pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Required Banks may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, by notice in writing to the Borrower and such Person remove such Person as Agent and, with the consent of the Borrower (so long as no Default or Event of Default then exists), appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Banks and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Banks) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.
(c)With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (i) the retiring or removed Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (ii) except for any indemnity payments owed to the retiring or removed Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Agent shall instead be made by or to each Bank directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Banks appoint a successor Agent as provided for above.  Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments owed to the retiring or removed Agent), and the retiring or removed Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents.  The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor.  After the retiring or removed Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions 

74
NAI-1519170929v11        

of this Article IX and Section 9.9 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Agent and its sub-agents and their respective affiliates, officers, directors, attorneys, agents and employees in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Agent was acting as Agent.
SECTION 9.11  EXCULPATORY PROVISIONS.  
A.     The Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent: 
1.     shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;
2.     shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Banks (or such other number or percentage of the Banks as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that the Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may affect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Bank in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and
3.     shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.
B.     The Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Banks (or such other number or percentage of the Banks as shall be necessary, or as the Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.3 and Article VIII), or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment.  The Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to the Agent in writing by the Borrower or a Bank.
C.     The Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Agent.

75
NAI-1519170929v11        

SECTION 9.12  DELEGATION OF DUTIES.  The Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Agent.  The Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, agents and employees.  The exculpatory provisions of this Article IX shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the respective Affiliates, officers, directors, agents and employees of the Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the facilities as well as activities as Agent.  The Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non-appealable judgment that the Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.
SECTION 9.13  ERRONEOUS PAYMENTS.  
(a)If the Agent (x) notifies a Bank or Fronting Bank, or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Bank or Fronting Bank (any such Bank, Fronting Bank or other recipient (and each of their respective successors and assigns), a “Payment Recipient”) that the Agent has determined in its sole discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under immediately succeeding clause (b)) that any funds (as set forth in such notice from the Agent) received by such Payment Recipient from the Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously or mistakenly transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Bank, Fronting Bank or other Payment Recipient on its behalf)  (any such funds, whether  transmitted or received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”) and (y) demands in writing the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Agent pending its return or repayment as contemplated below in this Section 9.13 and held in trust for the benefit of the Agent, and such Bank or Fronting Bank shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment Recipient to) promptly, but in no event later than two Business Days thereafter (or such later date as the Agent may, in its sole discretion, specify in writing), return to the Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon (except to the extent waived in writing by the Agent) in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Agent in same day funds at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of the Agent to any Payment Recipient under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(b)Without limiting immediately preceding clause (a), each Bank, Fronting Bank or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Bank or Fronting Bank (and each of their respective successors and assigns), agrees that if it receives a payment, prepayment or repayment (whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution 

76
NAI-1519170929v11        

or otherwise) from the Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in this Agreement or in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Agent (or any of its Affiliates), or (z) that such Bank or Fronting Bank, or other such recipient, otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part), then in each such case:

(i)such Bank or Fronting Bank acknowledges and agrees that (A) in the case of immediately preceding clauses (x) or (y), an error and mistake shall be presumed to have been made (absent written confirmation from the Agent to the contrary) or (B) an error and mistake has been made (in the case of immediately preceding clause (z)), in each case, with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment; and

(ii)such Bank or Fronting Bank shall (and shall cause any other recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf to) promptly (and, in all events, within one Business Day of its knowledge of the occurrence of any of the circumstances described in immediately preceding clauses (x), (y) and (z)) notify the Agent of its receipt of such payment, prepayment or repayment, the details thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying the Agent pursuant to this Section 9.13(b). 

For the avoidance of doubt, the failure to deliver a notice to the Agent pursuant to this Section 9.13(b) shall not have any effect on a Payment Recipient’s obligations pursuant to Section 9.13(a) or on whether or not an Erroneous Payment has been made.

(c)Each Bank and Fronting Bank hereby authorizes the Agent to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Bank or Fronting Bank under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Agent to such Bank or Fronting Bank under any Loan Document with respect to any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts, against any amount that the Agent has demanded to be returned under immediately preceding clause (a).

(d)The parties hereto agree that (x) irrespective of whether the Agent may be equitably subrogated, in the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Payment Recipient that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights and interests of such Payment Recipient (and, in the case of any Payment Recipient who has received funds on behalf of a Bank or Fronting Bank, to the rights and interests of such Bank or Fronting Bank, as the case may be) under the Loan Documents with respect to such amount and (y) an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Borrower or any other Loan Party; provided that this Section 9.13 shall not be interpreted to increase (or accelerate the due date for), or have the effect of increasing (or accelerating the due 

77
NAI-1519170929v11        

date for), the Obligations of the Borrower relative to the amount (and/or timing for payment) of the Obligations that would have been payable had such Erroneous Payment not been made by the Agent; provided, further, that for the avoidance of doubt, immediately preceding clauses (x) and (y) shall not apply to the extent any such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Agent from the Borrower for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment.

(e)To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to  an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payment received, including, without limitation, any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.

Each party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 9.13 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Agent, any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Bank or Fronting Bank, the termination of the Commitments and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document.
ARTICLE X.
MISCELLANEOUS

Each Bank represents that it has made and shall continue to make its own independent investigation of the creditworthiness, financial condition and affairs of the Companies in connection with the extension of credit hereunder, and agrees that Agent has no duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Bank with any credit or other information with respect thereto (other than such notices as may be expressly required to be given by Agent to the Banks hereunder), whether coming into its possession before the granting of the first Loans hereunder or at any time or times thereafter.
SECTION 10.2  NO WAIVER; CUMULATIVE REMEDIES.  No omission or course of dealing on the part of Agent, any Bank or the holder of any Note in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy hereunder or under any of the Loan Documents. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and in addition to any other rights, powers or privileges held by operation of law, by contract or otherwise.

SECTION 10.3  AMENDMENTS, CONSENTS.  No amendment, modification, termination, or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document nor consent to any variance therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Required Banks and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, unanimous consent of the Banks shall be required with respect to (a) any increase in the Commitment hereunder, (b) the extension of maturity of the Notes, the payment date of interest or principal thereunder, or the payment of commitment or other fees or amounts payable hereunder, (c) any reduction in the rate of interest on the Notes, or in any amount of principal or interest due on any Note, or the payment of commitment or other fees hereunder or any change in the manner of pro rata application of any payments made by Borrower to the Banks hereunder (provided that this clause (c) shall not apply to any waiver of the application of the Default Rate), (d) any change in any percentage voting requirement, voting rights, or the Required Banks definition in this Agreement, (e) the release of any Guarantor of Payment except for the release of a Guarantor of Payment in connection with a transaction expressly permitted pursuant to this Agreement, or (f) any amendment to this Section 10.3 or Section 8.5 hereof.  Notice of amendments or consents ratified by the Banks hereunder shall immediately be forwarded by Borrower to all Banks.

The 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.

79
NAI-1519170929v11        

Unless the Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an electronic mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return electronic mail or other written acknowledgement), and (ii) notices or communications posted to an internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient, at its electronic mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i), of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor; provided that, for both clauses (i) and (ii) above, if such notice, electronic mail or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient.
SECTION 10.5  COSTS, EXPENSES AND TAXES.  Borrower agrees to pay on demand all costs and expenses of Agent, including, but not limited to, (a) syndication, administration, travel and out-of-pocket expenses, including but not limited to consultants’ and attorneys’ fees and expenses, of Agent in connection with the preparation, negotiation and closing of the Loan Documents and the administration of the Loan Documents, the collection and disbursement of all funds hereunder and the other instruments and documents to be delivered hereunder, (b) extraordinary expenses of Agent in connection with the administration of the Loan Documents and the other instruments and documents to be delivered hereunder, and (c) the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of special counsel for the Banks, with respect to the foregoing, and of local counsel, if any, who may be retained by said special counsel with respect thereto. Borrower also agrees to pay on demand all costs and expenses of Agent and the Banks, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, in connection with the restructuring or enforcement of the Debt, this Agreement or any Related Writing.  In addition, Borrower shall pay any and all stamp and other Taxes and fees payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, and the other instruments and documents to be delivered hereunder, and agrees to hold Agent and each Bank harmless from and against any and all liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay in paying or omission to pay such Taxes or fees.
SECTION 10.6  INDEMNIFICATION.  
(a)Borrower agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Agent and the Banks (and their respective affiliates, officers, directors, attorneys, agents and employees) (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including attorneys’ fees) or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against Agent or any Bank in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding (whether or not such Bank or Agent shall be designated a party thereto) or any other claim by any Person (other than any claim arising out of transactions solely between any of the Indemnitees (other than disputes involving claims against Agent in its capacity as such)) relating to or arising out of any Loan Document or any actual or proposed use of proceeds of the Loans or any of the Debt, or any activities of any Company or any Obligor or any of their respective Affiliates; provided that no Indemnitee shall have the right to be indemnified under this Section 10.6 for its own bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision.  All obligations provided for in this Section 10.6 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.  This Section 10.6(a) 

80
NAI-1519170929v11        

shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, penalties or expenses arising from any non-Tax claim.
(b)To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, 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, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit, or the use of the proceeds thereof.  No Indemnitee referred to in clause (a) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.
SECTION 10.7  OBLIGATIONS SEVERAL; NO FIDUCIARY OBLIGATIONS.  The obligations of the Banks hereunder are several and not joint.  Nothing contained in this Agreement and no action taken by Agent or the Banks pursuant hereto shall be deemed to constitute the Banks a partnership, association, joint venture or other entity.  No default by any Bank hereunder shall excuse the other Banks from any obligation under this Agreement; but no Bank shall have or acquire any additional obligation of any kind by reason of such default.  The relationship among Borrower and the Banks with respect to the Loan Documents and the Related Writings is and shall be solely that of debtor and creditors, respectively, and neither Agent nor any Bank has any fiduciary obligation toward Borrower with respect to any such documents or the transactions contemplated thereby.
SECTION 10.8  EXECUTION IN COUNTERPARTS; ELECTRONIC EXECUTION.  This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute but one and the same agreement.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or in electronic format (e.g., .pdf or .tif), or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of the actual executed signature page, shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in or related to any Loan Document or other document to be signed in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including, without limitation, Assignment Agreements, amendments, Notices of Loans, guaranties, waivers and consents) shall be deemed to include Electronic Signatures, the electronic matching of assignment terms and contract formations on electronic platforms approved by Agent, deliveries or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act of the State of Ohio and any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

SECTION 10.9  BINDING EFFECT; BORROWER’S ASSIGNMENT.  This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by Borrower, Agent and by each Bank and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Borrower, Agent and each of the Banks and their respective successors and assigns, except that Borrower shall not have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of Agent and all of the Banks.  This Agreement is an amendment and restatement of the Existing Credit Agreement.  On the Effective Date all Letters of Credit issued under the Existing Credit Agreement shall be deemed to be Letters of Credit hereunder and all Loans outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement shall be deemed to be Loans hereunder and all Loans shall be deemed repaid and readvanced on the Effective Date in accordance with the Commitment Percentages.
SECTION 10.10  ASSIGNMENTS.
(a)Each Bank shall have the right, in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Section 10.10, at any time or times to assign to one or more commercial banks, finance companies, insurance companies or other financial institution or fund which, in each case, in the ordinary course of business extends credit of the type contemplated herein, without recourse, all or a percentage of all of such Bank’s Commitment, all Loans made by such Bank, such Bank’s Notes, and such Bank’s interest in any participation purchased pursuant to Section 2.1C or 8.5 hereof.
(b)No assignment may be consummated pursuant to this Section 10.10 without the prior written consent of Borrower and Agent (other than an assignment by any Bank to any Affiliate of such Bank), which consent of Borrower and Agent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that, Borrower’s consent shall not be required if, (i) such assignment is to another Bank or an Approved Fund, or (ii) at the time of the proposed assignment, any Default or Event of Default shall then exist; provided, further, the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Agent within (7) Business Days after it receives notice thereof.  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, any Bank may at any time make a collateral assignment of all or any portion of its rights under the Loan Documents to a Federal Reserve Bank, and no such assignment shall release such assigning Bank from its obligations hereunder.
(c)Each assignment made pursuant to this Section 10.10 shall be in a minimum amount of the lesser of Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000) of the assignor’s Commitment and interest herein or the entire amount of the assignor’s Commitment and interest herein.
(d)Unless waived by Agent, either the assignor or the assignee shall remit to Agent, for its own account, an administrative fee of Three Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($3,500).
(e)The parties to each assignment shall (i) execute and deliver to Borrower and Agent an Assignment Agreement and (ii) execute and deliver, or cause the assignee to execute and deliver, as the case may be, to Agent such additional amendments, assurances and other writings as Agent may reasonably require.
(f)[Reserved.]

82
NAI-1519170929v11        

(g)Upon satisfaction of all applicable requirements specified in subparts (a) though (f) above, Borrower shall execute and deliver (i) to Agent, the assignor and the assignee, any consent or release (of all or a portion of the obligations of the assignor) required to be delivered by Borrower in connection with the Assignment Agreement, and (ii) to the assignee or the assignor (if applicable), an appropriate Note or Notes.  After delivery of the new Note or Notes, the assignor’s Note or Notes being replaced shall be returned to Borrower marked “replaced”.
(h)Upon satisfaction of all applicable requirements specified in subparts (a) though (f) above and any other condition contained in this Section 10.10, and subject to the acceptance and recording thereof by Agent pursuant to Section 10.10(i), (i) the assignee shall become and thereafter be deemed to be a “Bank” for the purposes of this Agreement, (ii) the Assignor shall be released from its obligations hereunder to the extent its interest has been assigned, (iii) in the event that the assignor’s entire interest has been assigned, the assignor shall cease to be and thereafter shall no longer be deemed to be a “Bank” but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.1, 3.7 and 10.6 hereof with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment and (iv) the signature pages hereto and Schedule 1 hereto shall be automatically amended, without further action, to reflect the result of any such assignment.
(i)Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrower, shall maintain at the address for notices referred to in Section 10.4 hereof a copy of each Assignment Agreement delivered to it and a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Bank and the Commitment of, and principal amount of (and stated interest on) the Loans owing to, each Bank from time to time.  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and Borrower, Agent and the Bank may treat each financial institution whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of the Loan recorded therein for all purposes of this Agreement.  The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower or any Bank at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
SECTION 10.11  PARTICIPATIONS.
(a)Each Bank shall have the right at any time or times, without the consent of Agent or Borrower, to sell one or more participations or sub-participations to a financial institution or other “accredited investor” (as defined in SEC Regulation D) (each a “Participant”), as the case may be, in all or any part of such Bank’s Commitment, such Bank’s Commitment Percentage, any Loan made by such Bank, any Note delivered to such Bank pursuant to this Agreement, and such Bank’s interest in any participation, if any, purchased pursuant to Section 2.1C or 8.5 or this Section 10.11.
(b)The provisions of Article III and Section 10.6 shall inure to the benefit of each purchaser of a participation or sub-participation and Agent shall continue to distribute payments pursuant to this Agreement as if no participation has been sold.
(c)If any Bank shall sell any participation or sub-participation pursuant to this Section 10.11, such Bank shall, as between itself and the purchaser, retain all of its rights 

83
NAI-1519170929v11        

(including, without limitation, rights to enforce against Borrower the Loan Documents and the Related Writings) and duties pursuant to the Loan Documents and the Related Writings, including, without limitation, such Bank’s right to approve any waiver, consent or amendment pursuant to Section 10.3, except if and to the extent that (i) such participant is an Affiliate or an Approved Fund of the Bank granting the participations or (ii) any such waiver, consent or amendment affects such Participant and would (A) reduce any fee or commission allocated to the participation or sub-participation, as the case may be; (B) reduce the amount of any principal payment on any Loan allocated to the participation or sub-participation, as the case may be, or reduce the principal amount of any Loan so allocated or the rate of interest payable thereon, (C) extend the time for payment of any amount allocated to the participation or sub-participation, as the case may be, (D) release any guarantor from its guaranty of any of the Obligations, except in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, or (E) consent to the assignment or transfer by Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, provided that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.2 with respect to its participation as if it was a Bank, except that a participant shall (1) only deliver the forms described in Section 3.2G to the Bank granting it such participation and (2) not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.2 than the applicable Bank would have been entitled to receive absent the participation, except to the extent such entitlement to a greater payment arose from a Change in Law occurring after the participant became a participant hereunder.
(d)No participation or sub-participation shall operate as a delegation of any duty of the seller thereof.
(e)Under no circumstance shall any participation or sub-participation be deemed a novation in respect of all or any part of the seller’s obligations pursuant to this Agreement.
In the event that any Bank sells participations in a Loan, such Bank shall, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name of all participants in such Loan and the principal amount of (and stated interest on) the portion of such Loan that is the subject of the participation (the “Participant Register”).  The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and each Borrower, Agent and each Bank shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of the participation in question for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.  A Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same) may be participated in whole or in part only by registration of such participation on the Participant Register (and each registered note shall expressly so provide).  Any participation of a Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same) may be effected only by the registration of such participation on the Participant Register.  The Participant Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower and any Bank at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice; provided, however, that no Bank shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.  For the avoidance of doubt, Agent (in its capacity as Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(v) Unless such registration involves a Direct Listing, during the period starting with the date sixty (60) days prior to
the Company’s good faith estimate of the date of filing of, and ending on a date one hundred eighty (180) days after the effective date of, a Company-initiated registration (or ending on the subsequent date on which all market stand-off agreements applicable to the offering have terminated); provided that the Company is actively employing in good faith commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become
effective; 
 (vi) If the Initiating Holders propose to dispose of shares of Registrable Securities that may be registered on
Form S-3 pursuant to a request made under Section 2.3; 
 (vii)
Unless such registration involves a Direct Listing, if the Initiating Holders do not request that such offering be firmly underwritten by underwriters selected by the Initiating Holders (subject to the consent of the Company); or 

(viii) Unless such registration involves a Direct Listing, if the Company and the Initiating Holders are unable to obtain the
commitment of the underwriter described in clause (b)(vii) above to firmly underwrite the offer. 
 (c) Deferral. If (i) in the
good faith judgment of the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”), the filing of a registration statement covering the Registrable Securities would be materially detrimental to the Company and the Board concludes, as a
result, that it is in the best interests of the Company to defer the filing of such registration statement at such time, and (ii) the Company shall furnish to such Holders a certificate signed by the President of the Company stating that in the
good faith judgment of the Board, it would be materially detrimental to the Company for such registration statement to be filed in the near future and that it is, therefore, in the best interests of the Company to defer the filing of such
registration statement, then (in addition to the limitations set forth in Section 2.1(b)(v) above) the Company shall have the right to defer such filing for a period of not more than one hundred twenty (120) days after receipt of
the request of the Initiating Holders, and, provided further, that the Company shall not defer its obligation in this manner more than once in any twelve-month period and shall not register any securities for the account of itself or any other
stockholder during such one hundred and twenty (120) day period (other than a registration relating solely to the sale of securities by the Company in a Company stock plan, a registration relating to a corporate reorganization or transaction
under Rule 145 of the Securities Act, a registration on any form that does not include substantially the same information as would be required to be included in a registration statement covering the sale of Registrable Securities, or a
registration in which the only Common Stock being registered is Common Stock issuable upon conversion of debt securities that are also being registered). 

  
 6 

 (d) Other Shares. The registration statement filed pursuant to the request of the
Initiating Holders may, subject to the provisions of Section 2.1(e), include Other Shares, and may include securities of the Company being sold for the account of the Company. 

(e) Underwriting. Unless the Registrable Securities may be registered by the Company on
Form S-3, the right of any Holder to include all or any portion of its Registrable Securities in a registration pursuant to this Section 2.1 shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s
participation in an underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities to the extent provided herein. If the Company shall request inclusion in any registration pursuant to Section 2.1 of securities being sold
for its own account, or if other persons shall request inclusion in any registration pursuant to Section 2.1, the Initiating Holders shall, on behalf of all Holders, offer to include such securities in the underwriting and such offer
shall be conditioned upon the participation of the Company or such other persons in such underwriting and the inclusion of the Company’s and such person’s other securities of the Company and their acceptance of the further applicable
provisions of this Section 2 (including Section 2.10). The Company shall (together with all Holders and other persons proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement in
customary form with the representative of the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting by the Company, which underwriters are reasonably acceptable to a
majority-in-interest of the Initiating Holders. 

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.1, if the underwriters advise the Initiating Holders in writing that
marketing factors require a limitation on the number of shares to be underwritten, the number of Registrable Securities and Other Shares that may be so included shall be allocated as follows: (i) first, among all Holders requesting to include
Registrable Securities in such registration statement based on the pro rata percentage of Registrable Securities held by such Holders, assuming conversion; (ii) second, among all Other Selling Stockholders requesting to include Other Shares in
such registration statement based on the pro rata percentage of Other Shares held by such Other Selling Stockholders, assuming conversion; and (iii) third, to the Company, which the Company may allocate, at its discretion, for its own account,
or for the account of other holders or employees of the Company. 
 If a person who has requested inclusion in such registration as provided
above does not agree to the terms of any such underwriting, such person shall be excluded therefrom by written notice from the Company, the underwriter or the Initiating Holders. The securities so excluded shall also be withdrawn from registration.
Any Registrable Securities or other securities excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall also be withdrawn from such registration. If shares are so withdrawn from the registration and if the number of shares to be included in such
registration was previously reduced as a result of marketing factors pursuant to this Section 2.1(e), then the Company shall then offer to all Holders and Other Selling Stockholders who have retained rights to include securities in the
registration the right to include additional Registrable Securities or Other Shares in the registration in an aggregate amount equal to the number of shares so withdrawn, with such shares to be allocated among such Holders and Other Selling
Stockholders requesting additional inclusion, as set forth above.

 2.2 Company Registration. 

(a) Company Registration. If the Company shall determine to register (including without limitation for this purpose a registration by
the Company for stockholders other than the Holders) any of its securities either for its own account or the account of a security holder or holders, other than a registration pursuant to Section 2.3, a registration relating solely to
employee benefit plans, a registration relating solely to the offer and sale of debt securities and the Common Stock that is issuable upon the conversion of such debt securities, a registration relating to a corporate reorganization or other
Rule 145 transaction, or a registration on any registration form that does not permit secondary sales, the Company will: 

(i) promptly give written notice of the proposed registration to all Holders; and 

(ii) use its commercially reasonable efforts to include in such registration (and any related qualification under blue sky laws
or other compliance), except as set forth in Section 2.2(b) below, and in any underwriting involved therein, all of such Registrable Securities as are specified in a written request or requests made by any Holder or Holders received
by the Company within ten (10) days after such written notice from the Company is mailed or delivered. Such written request may specify all or a part of a Holder’s Registrable Securities. 

(b) Underwriting. If the registration of which the Company gives notice is for a registered public offering involving an underwriting,
the Company shall so advise the Holders as a part of the written notice given pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(i). In such event, the right of any Holder to registration pursuant to this Section 2.2 shall be conditioned upon such
Holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Holders proposing to distribute their securities through such underwriting shall
(together with the Company, the Other Selling Stockholders and other holders of securities of the Company with registration rights to participate therein distributing their securities through such underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement
in customary form with the representative of the underwriter or underwriters selected by the Company. 
 Notwithstanding any other provision
of this Section 2.2, if the underwriters advise the Company in writing that marketing factors require a limitation on the number of shares to be underwritten, the underwriters may (subject to the limitations set forth below) exclude all
Registrable Securities from, or limit the number of Registrable Securities to be included in, the registration and underwriting. The Company shall so advise all holders of securities requesting registration, and the number of shares of securities
that are entitled to be included in the registration and underwriting shall be allocated, as follows: (i) first, to the Company for securities being sold for its own account, (ii) second, to the Holders requesting to include Registrable
Securities in such registration statement based on the pro rata percentage of Registrable Securities held by such Holders, assuming conversion and (iii) third, to the Other Selling Stockholders requesting to include Other Shares in such
registration statement based on the pro rata percentage of Other 

  
 8 

 
Shares held by such Other Selling Stockholders, assuming conversion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the amount of securities of the selling Holders included in the offering be
reduced below thirty percent (30%) of the total amount of securities included in such offering, unless such offering is the Initial Public Offering of the Company’s securities, in which case the selling Holders may be excluded if the
underwriters make the determination described above and no other stockholder’s securities are included in such offering. For purposes of the preceding sentence concerning apportionment, for any selling stockholder that is a Holder of
Registrable Securities and that is a venture capital or private equity fund, partnership or corporation, the affiliated venture capital or private equity funds, partners, retired partners, stockholders and related individuals of such Holder, or the
estates and family members of any such partners and retired partners and any trusts for the benefit of any of the foregoing persons shall be deemed to be a single “selling Holder,” and any pro rata reduction with respect to such
“selling Holder” shall be based upon the aggregate amount of Registrable Securities owned by all such related entities and individuals. 

If a person who has requested inclusion in such registration as provided above does not agree to the terms of any such underwriting, such
person shall also be excluded therefrom by written notice from the Company or the underwriter. The Registrable Securities or other securities so excluded shall also be withdrawn from such registration. Any Registrable Securities or other securities
excluded or withdrawn from such underwriting shall be withdrawn from such registration. 
 (c) Right to Terminate Registration. The
Company shall have the right to terminate or withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section 2.2 prior to the effectiveness of such registration whether or not any Holder has elected to include securities in such
registration. The expenses of such withdrawn registration shall be borne by the Company in accordance with Section 2.4 hereof. 

2.3 Registration on Form S-3. 

(a) Request for Form S-3 Registration. After its Initial Public Offering, the Company shall
use its commercially reasonable efforts to qualify for registration on Form S-3 or any comparable or successor form or forms. After the Company has qualified for the use of
Form S-3, in addition to the rights contained in the foregoing provisions of this Section 2 and subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 2.3, if the Company shall
receive from a Holder or Holders of Registrable Securities a written request that the Company effect any registration on Form S-3 or any similar short form registration statement with respect to all or
part of the Registrable Securities (such request shall state the number of shares of Registrable Securities to be disposed of and the intended methods of disposition of such shares by such Holder or Holders), the Company will take all such action
with respect to such Registrable Securities as required by Section 2.1(a)(i) and 2.1(a)(ii). 
 (b) Limitations on
Form S-3 Registration. The Company shall not be obligated to effect, or take any action to effect, any such registration pursuant to this Section 2.3: 

(i) In the circumstances described in either Sections 2.1(b)(i), 2.1(b)(iii) or 2.1(b)(v); 

  
 9 

 (ii) If the Holders, together with the holders of any other securities of
the Company entitled to inclusion in such registration, propose to sell Registrable Securities and such other securities (if any) on Form S-3 at an aggregate price to the public of less than $2,500,000;
or 
 (iii) If, in a given twelve-month period, the Company has effected two (2) such registrations in such period. 

(c) Deferral. The provisions of Section 2.1(c) shall apply to any registration pursuant to this Section 2.3.

 (d) Underwriting. If the Holders of Registrable Securities requesting registration under this Section 2.3 intend to
distribute the Registrable Securities covered by their request by means of an underwriting, the provisions of Section 2.1(e) shall apply to such registration. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, registrations
effected pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall not be counted as requests for registration or registrations effected pursuant to Section 2.1. 

2.4 Expenses of Registration. All Registration Expenses incurred in connection with registrations pursuant to Sections 2.1,
2.2 and 2.3 shall be borne by the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay for any expenses of any registration proceeding begun pursuant to Sections 2.1 and 2.3 if the
registration request is subsequently withdrawn at the request of the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities to be registered or because a sufficient number of Holders shall have withdrawn so that the minimum offering conditions set
forth in Sections 2.1 and 2.3 are no longer satisfied (in which case all participating Holders shall bear such expenses pro rata among each other based on the number of Registrable Securities requested to be so registered), unless
the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities agree to forfeit their right to a demand registration pursuant to Section 2.1; provided further, however, that if at the time of such withdrawal, the Holders
have learned of a material adverse change in the condition, business or prospects of the Company from that known to the Holders at the time of their request and have withdrawn the request with reasonable promptness following the earlier of the
disclosure by the Company of such material adverse change or the Holders becoming aware of such material adverse change, then the Holders shall not be required to pay any of such expenses and shall retain their rights pursuant to
Sections 2.1 and 2.3 of this Agreement. All Selling Expenses relating to securities registered on behalf of the Holders shall be borne by the holders of securities included in such registration pro rata among each other on the
basis of the number of Registrable Securities so registered. 
 2.5 Registration Procedures. In the case of each registration effected
by the Company pursuant to Section 2, the Company will keep each Holder advised in writing as to the initiation of each registration and as to the completion thereof. At its expense, the Company will use its commercially reasonable
efforts to: 
 (a) Keep such registration effective for a period ending on the earlier of the date which is ninety (90) days from the
effective date of the registration statement or such time as the Holder or Holders have completed the distribution described in the registration statement relating thereto; 

  
 10 

 (b) To the extent the Company is a well-known seasoned issuer (as defined in Rule 405
under the Securities Act) (a “WKSI”) at the time any request for registration is submitted to the Company in accordance with Section 2.3, (i) if so requested, file an automatic shelf registration statement (as
defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) (an “automatic shelf registration statement”) to effect such registration, and (ii) remain a WKSI (and not become an ineligible issuer (as defined in Rule 405 under the
Securities Act)) during the period during which such automatic shelf registration statement is required to remain effective in accordance with this Agreement; 

(c) Prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection
with such registration statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement for the period set forth in subsection (a) above;

 (d) Furnish such number of prospectuses, including any preliminary prospectuses and any Free Writing Prospectus prepared by or on behalf
of the Company, in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and other documents incident thereto, including any amendment of or supplement to the prospectus, as a Holder from time to time may reasonably request; 

(e) Use its reasonable best efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities
or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdiction as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders; provided, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent
to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions; 
 (f) Notify each seller of Registrable Securities covered by such registration
statement at any time when a prospectus or Free Writing Prospectus (to the extent prepared by or on behalf of the Company) relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of any event as a result of which the
prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or
incomplete in light of the circumstances then existing, and following such notification promptly prepare and furnish to such seller a reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of such prospectus as may be necessary so that, as
thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such shares, such prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading
or incomplete in light of the circumstances then existing; 
 (g) If at any time when the Company is required to re-evaluate its WKSI status for purposes of an automatic shelf registration statement used to effect a request for registration in accordance with Section 2.3 (i) the Company determines that it is
not a WKSI, (ii) the registration statement is required to be kept effective in accordance with this Agreement, and (iii) the registration rights of the applicable Holders have not terminated, promptly amend the registration statement onto
a form the Company is then eligible to use or file a new registration statement on such form, and keep such registration statement effective in accordance with the requirements otherwise applicable under this Agreement; 

  
 11 

 (h) Provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Securities registered
pursuant to such registration statement and a CUSIP number for all such Registrable Securities, in each case not later than the effective date of such registration; 

(i) Cause all such Registrable Securities registered pursuant hereunder to be listed on each securities exchange on which similar securities
issued by the Company are then listed; and 
 (j) In connection with any underwritten offering pursuant to a registration statement filed
pursuant to Section 2.1, enter into an underwriting agreement in form reasonably necessary to effect the offer and sale of Common Stock, provided such underwriting agreement contains reasonable and customary provisions, and provided
further, that each Holder participating in such underwriting shall also enter into and perform its obligations under such an agreement. 

2.6 Indemnification. 
 (a)
To the extent permitted by law, the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, each of its officers, directors, stockholders, partners, retired partners, members, retired members, employees, agents or related parties of each Holder, legal
counsel and accountants for such Holder and each person controlling such Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, with respect to which registration, qualification or compliance has been effected pursuant to this
Section 2, and each underwriter, if any, and each person who controls within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act any underwriter, against all expenses, claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or actions, proceedings or
settlements in respect thereof) arising out of or based on: (i) any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained or incorporated by reference in any registration statement, including any preliminary prospectus or
final prospectus included in the registration statement or any amendments or supplements thereto, any issuer free writing prospectus (as defined in Rule 433 of the Securities Act), any issuer information (as defined in Rule 433 of the
Securities Act) filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act or any other document incident to any such registration, qualification or compliance prepared by or on behalf of the Company or used or referred
to by the Company, (ii) any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the light of the circumstances under which they were made in the case of a
prospectus or free writing prospectus) not misleading, or (iii) any violation (or alleged violation) by the Company of the Securities Act, any state securities laws or any rule or regulation thereunder applicable to the Company and relating to
action or inaction required of the Company in connection with any offering covered by such registration, qualification or compliance, and the Company will reimburse each such Holder, each of its officers, directors, stockholders, partners, retired
partners, members, retired members, employees agents or related parties of each Holder, legal counsel and accountants for such Holder and each person controlling such Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, each such
underwriter and each person who controls any such underwriter, for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating and defending or settling any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action; provided

  
 12 

 
that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such claim, loss, damage, liability, or action arises out of or is based on any untrue statement or omission based upon
written information furnished to the Company by such Holder, any of such Holder’s officers, directors, stockholders, partners, retired partners, members, retired members, employees, agents or related individuals, accountants or legal counsel of
each Holder, such underwriter or any person who controls any such underwriter, and stated to be specifically for use therein; and provided, further that, the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 2.6(a) shall not apply to amounts
paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). 

(b) To the extent permitted by law, each Holder will, severally and not jointly, if Registrable Securities held by such Holder are included in
the securities as to which such registration, qualification or compliance is being effected, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, officers, partners, legal counsel and accountants and each underwriter, if any, of the
Company’s securities covered by such a registration statement, each person who controls the Company or such underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, each other such Holder, and each of their officers, directors
and partners, and each person controlling each other such Holder, against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arising out of or based on: (i) any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a
material fact contained or incorporated by reference in any registration statement, any prospectus included in the registration statement, any issuer free writing prospectus (as defined in Rule 433 of the Securities Act), any issuer information
(as defined in Rule 433 of the Securities Act) filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act or any other document incident to any such registration, qualification or compliance prepared by or on
behalf of the Company or used or referred to by the Company, or (ii) any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made in the case of a prospectus or free writing prospectus) not misleading, and will reimburse the Company and such Holders, directors, officers, partners, legal counsel and accountants, persons, underwriters, or
control persons for any legal or any other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement
(or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is made in such registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such
Holder and stated to be specifically for use therein; provided, however, that the obligations of such Holder hereunder shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such claims, losses, damages or liabilities (or actions in
respect thereof) if such settlement is effected without the consent of such Holder (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld); and provided that in no event shall any indemnity or contribution under this Section 2.6 exceed the
net proceeds from the offering received by such Holder, except in the case of fraud or willful misconduct by such Holder. 
 (c) Each party
entitled to indemnification under this Section 2.6 (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give notice to the party required to provide indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) promptly after such Indemnified
Party has actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom; provided that counsel for the Indemnifying Party,
who shall conduct the defense of such claim or any litigation resulting 

  
 13 

 
therefrom, shall be approved by the Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), and the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at such party’s expense;
and provided further that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section 2.6, to the extent such failure is not materially prejudicial. No
Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the
giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. Each Indemnified Party shall furnish such information regarding itself or the claim in question as an Indemnifying
Party may reasonably request in writing and as shall be reasonably required in connection with defense of such claim and litigation resulting therefrom. 

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 2.6 is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an
Indemnified Party with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense referred to herein, then the Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party on the one hand and of the Indemnified Party on the other in connection
with the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and of the Indemnified Party shall be determined
by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Indemnifying Party or by the Indemnified Party and the
parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. No person or entity guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities
Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person or entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation; provided that if the Indemnifying Party is a Holder then in no event shall any contribution by such Holder as an
Indemnifying Party under this Section 2.6(d) exceed the net proceeds from the offering received by such Holder, except in the case of fraud or willful misconduct by such Holder. 

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions on indemnification and contribution contained in the underwriting
agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the underwriting agreement shall control. 

(f) Unless otherwise superseded by an underwriting agreement entered into in connection with the underwritten public offering and approved by
the Board, including a majority of the Preferred Directors then serving on the Board (and in any event not less than one Preferred Director), the obligations of the Company and Holders under this Section 2.6 shall survive the completion
of any offering of Registrable Securities in a registration under this Section 2, and otherwise shall survive the termination of this Agreement. 

  
 14 

 2.7 Information by Holder. Each Holder of Registrable Securities shall furnish to the
Company such information regarding such Holder and the distribution proposed by such Holder as the Company may reasonably request in writing and as shall be reasonably required in connection with any registration, qualification, or compliance
referred to in this Section 2. 
 2.8 Restrictions on Transfer. 

(a) The holder of each certificate representing Registrable Securities by acceptance thereof agrees to comply in all respects with the
provisions of this Section 2.8. Each Holder agrees not to make any sale, assignment, transfer, pledge or other disposition of all or any portion of the Restricted Securities, or any beneficial interest therein, unless and until the
transferee thereof has agreed in writing for the benefit of the Company to take and hold such Restricted Securities subject to, and to be bound by, the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, including, without limitation, this
Section 2.8 and Section 2.10, and: 
 (i) There is then in effect a registration statement under the
Securities Act covering such proposed disposition and the disposition is made in accordance with the registration statement; or 

(ii) The Holder shall have given prior written notice to the Company of the Holder’s intention to make such disposition
and shall have furnished the Company with a detailed description of the manner and circumstances of the proposed disposition, and, if requested by the Company, the Holder shall have furnished the Company, at the Holder’s expense, with
(i) an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company to the effect that such disposition will not require registration of such Restricted Securities under the Securities Act or (ii) a “no action” letter from the
Commission to the effect that the transfer of such securities without registration will not result in a recommendation by the staff of the Commission that action be taken with respect thereto, whereupon the holder of such Restricted Securities shall
be entitled to transfer such Restricted Securities in accordance with the terms of the notice delivered by the Holder to the Company. 
 (b)
Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.8(a), no such registration statement or opinion of counsel or “no action” letter shall be necessary for (i) a transfer not involving a change in beneficial ownership, or
(ii) transactions involving the distribution without consideration of Restricted Securities by any Holder to (x) a parent, subsidiary or other affiliate of the Holder, if the Holder is a corporation, (y) any of the Holder’s
partners, members or other equity owners, or retired partners, retired members or other equity owners, or to the estate of any of the Holder’s partners, members or other equity owners or retired partners, retired members or other equity owners,
or (z) a venture capital or private equity fund that is controlled by or under common control with one or more general partners or managing members of, or shares the same management company or is under common investment management with, the
Holder; provided, in each case, that the Holder shall give written notice to the Company of the Holder’s intention to effect such disposition and shall have furnished the Company with a detailed description of the manner and
circumstances of the proposed disposition. 

  
 15 

 (c) Each certificate representing Registrable Securities shall (unless otherwise permitted
by the provisions of this Agreement) be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend substantially similar to the following (in addition to any legend required under applicable state securities laws): 

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”), OR UNDER
THE SECURITIES LAWS OF CERTAIN STATES. THESE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED EXCEPT AS PERMITTED UNDER THE ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS PURSUANT TO REGISTRATION OR AN EXEMPTION
THEREFROM. THE ISSUER OF THESE SECURITIES MAY REQUIRE AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER THAT SUCH OFFER, SALE OR TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR HYPOTHECATION OTHERWISE COMPLIES WITH THE ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

 THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO (1) RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY AND RESALE, INCLUDING A LOCK-UP PERIOD IN THE EVENT OF A PUBLIC OFFERING, AS SET FORTH IN AN INVESTORS’ RIGHTS AGREEMENT, AS AMENDED FROM TIME TO TIME, AND (2) VOTING RESTRICTIONS AS SET FORTH IN A VOTING AGREEMENT, AS AMENDED
FROM TIME TO TIME, AMONG THE COMPANY AND THE ORIGINAL HOLDERS OF THESE SHARES, COPIES OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED AT THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE COMPANY. 

The Holders consent to the Company making a notation on its records and giving instructions to any transfer agent of the Restricted Securities
in order to implement the restrictions on transfer established in this Section 2.8. 
 (d) The first legend referring to federal
and state securities laws identified in Section 2.8(c) stamped on a certificate evidencing the Restricted Securities and the stock transfer instructions and record notations with respect to the Restricted Securities shall be removed and
the Company shall issue a certificate without such legend to the holder of Restricted Securities if (i) those securities are registered under the Securities Act, or (ii) the holder provides the Company with an opinion of counsel reasonably
acceptable to the Company to the effect that a sale or transfer of those securities may be made without registration or qualification. 
 2.9
Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the Commission that may permit the sale of the Restricted Securities to the public without registration, the Company agrees to use its
commercially reasonable efforts to: 
 (a) Make and keep adequate current public information with respect to the Company available in
accordance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act, at all times from and after ninety (90) days following the effective date of the first registration under the Securities Act filed by the Company for an offering of its securities to the
general public; 

  
 16 

 (b) File with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of
the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act at any time after it has become subject to such reporting requirements; and 
 (c)
So long as a Holder owns any Restricted Securities, furnish to the Holder forthwith upon written request a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144 (at any time from and after ninety
(90) days following the effective date of the first registration statement filed by the Company for an offering of its securities to the general public), and of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act (at any time after it has become subject to
such reporting requirements), a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company, and such other reports and documents so filed as a Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the Commission
allowing a Holder to sell any such securities without registration. 
 2.10 Market Stand-Off
Agreement. Each Holder shall not sell or otherwise transfer, make any short sale of, grant any option for the purchase of, or enter into any hedging or similar transaction with the same economic effect as a sale, any Preferred Stock or Common
Stock (or other securities that are convertible or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock) of the Company held by such holder (other than those included in the registration) during the period commencing on the date on the date the Company first
files a preliminary prospectus that includes a price range in respect of the Company’s Initial Public Offering and ending 180 days after the date of the final prospectus relating to the registration by the Company of shares of its Common Stock
or any other equity securities under the Securities Act on a registration statement on Form S-1 with the Commission in connection with the Initial Public Offering (or such other period as may be requested by
the Company or the managing underwriter (not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days following the date of such final prospectus)), or, if earlier, the withdrawal of the related registration statement, provided that: all officers and directors
of the Company and holders of at least one percent (1%) of the Company’s voting securities are bound by and have entered into similar agreements and such restrictions on transfer shall be subject to customary exceptions agreed among the Company
and the managing underwriter and Holders of a majority of the outstanding Common Stock on an as-converted basis. The obligations described in this Section 2.10 shall not apply to a registration
relating solely to employee benefit plans on Form S-l, Form S-3 or Form S-8 or similar forms that may be
promulgated in the future, or a registration relating solely to a transaction on Form S-4 or similar forms that may be promulgated in the future. The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions and may
stamp each such certificate with the second legend set forth in Section 2.8(c) with respect to the shares of Common Stock (or other securities) subject to the foregoing restriction until the end of such one hundred eighty
(180) day (or other aforementioned) period. Each Holder agrees to execute a market standoff agreement with said underwriters in customary form consistent with the provisions of this Section 2.10. Any discretionary waiver or
termination of the restrictions of any or all of such agreements by the Company or the underwriters shall apply to all Holders subject to such agreements pro rata based on the number of shares subject to such agreements. The provisions of the
previous sentence will 

  
 17 

 
not apply, however, if (i)(a) the waiver or termination is effected solely to permit a transfer not for consideration and (b) the transferee agrees to be bound in writing by the restrictions
set forth in this Section 2.10, or (ii) the waiver or termination is granted in connection with a follow-on public offering of the Company’s securities pursuant to a registration
statement on Form S-1 that is filed with the Commission. 
 2.11 Delay of Registration. No
Holder shall have any right to take any action to restrain, enjoin, or otherwise delay any registration as the result of any controversy that might arise with respect to the interpretation or implementation of this Section 2. 

2.12 Transfer or Assignment of Registration Rights. The rights to cause the Company to register securities granted to a Holder by the
Company under this Section 2 may be transferred or assigned by a Holder (but only with all related obligations) to a transferee or assignee of such securities that (a) is an affiliate, subsidiary, parent, partner, limited partner,
retired partner, member, retired member or stockholder of a Holder or (b) is a Holder’s family member or trust for the benefit of an individual Holder or any of such Holder’s family members; provided that (i) such transfer
or assignment of Registrable Securities is effected in accordance with the terms of Section 2.8, the Amended and Restated Right of First Refusal and Co-Sale Agreement, and applicable securities
laws, (ii) the Company is given written notice prior to said transfer or assignment, stating the name and address of the transferee or assignee and identifying the securities with respect to which such registration rights are intended to be
transferred or assigned and (iii) the transferee or assignee of such rights assumes in writing the obligations of such Holder under this Agreement, including without limitation the obligations set forth in Section 2.10. 

2.13 Limitations on Subsequent Registration Rights. From and after the date of this Agreement, the Company shall not, without the prior
written consent of Holders holding at least sixty percent (60%) of the Registrable Securities (excluding any of such shares held by any Holders whose rights to request registration or inclusion in any registration pursuant to this
Section 2 have terminated in accordance with Section 2.14), enter into any agreement with any holder or prospective holder of any securities of the Company giving such holder or prospective holder (i) the right to include any
of such securities in any registration filed under Section 2.1, 2.2 or 2.3 hereof or (ii) any registration rights the terms of which are pari passu with or senior to the registration rights granted to the Holders hereunder. 

2.14 Termination of Registration Rights. The right of any Holder to request registration or inclusion in any registration pursuant to
Sections 2.1, 2.2 or 2.3 shall terminate on the earlier of (i) such date, on or after the closing of the Company’s first registered public offering of Common Stock, on which all shares of Registrable Securities
held or entitled to be held upon conversion by such Holder (together with any affiliate of the Holder with whom such Holder must aggregate its sales under Rule 144) may immediately be sold without restriction under Rule 144 during any
ninety (90) day period, and (ii) three (3) years after the closing of the Company’s Initial Public Offering.

further, that the Company reserves the right to withhold any information and to exclude such representatives from any meeting or portion thereof if access to such information or attendance at such meeting could adversely affect the attorney-client
privilege between the Company or any of its subsidiaries and its counsel or result in disclosure of trade secrets or a conflict of interest, or if such representatives are competitors of the Company. 

  
 20 

 3.2 Confidentiality. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, no
Holder by reason of this Agreement shall have access to any trade secrets of the Company. The Company shall not be required to comply with any information rights of Section 3 in respect of any Holder whom the Board reasonably determines
to be a competitor or an officer, employee, director or holder of more than ten percent (10%) of a competitor (provided, however, that in no event shall the Preferred Investors or any of their respective affiliates be deemed to be a competitor or an
officer, employee, director or holder of more than ten percent (10%) of a competitor solely as a result of the business or products of any of the Preferred Investors’ respective portfolio companies). Each Holder acknowledges that the
information received by them pursuant to this Agreement may be confidential and for its use only, and it will not use such confidential information in violation of the Exchange Act or reproduce, disclose or disseminate such information to any other
person (other than its employees or agents having a need to know the contents of such information, and its attorneys), except in connection with the exercise of rights under this Agreement, unless such information (a) was in the public domain
prior to the time it was furnished to the Holder; (b) is or becomes (through no willful improper action or inaction by such Holder) generally available to the public; (c) was in its possession or known by such Holder without restriction
prior to receipt from the Company; (d) was rightfully disclosed to such Holder by a third party without restriction; (e) was independently developed without any use of the Company’s confidential information; or (f) is required to
be disclosed by a governmental authority, stock market or stock exchange. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Preferred Investors may disclose such proprietary or confidential information to their respective affiliates, any former partners or members
who retained an economic interest in the respective Preferred Investor, current or prospective partner of such Preferred Investor or any subsequent partnership under common investment management, limited partner, general partner, member, investment
adviser, trustee or management company of such Preferred Investor (or any employee or representative of any of the foregoing) (each of the foregoing persons, a “Permitted Disclosee”) or legal counsel, accountants or representatives
for such Preferred Investor; provided that any Permitted Disclosee to whom confidential information is disclosed shall be subject to the confidentiality provisions of the operating agreements of the respective Preferred Investor, which shall
be substantially no less restrictive than the terms of this Section 3.2 and the applicable Preferred Investor shall be responsible for any violation or breach of this Section 3.2 by its Permitted Disclosees. Furthermore,
nothing contained herein shall prevent the Preferred Investors, individually or together, or any Permitted Disclosee from (x) entering into any business, entering into any agreement with a third party, or investing in or engaging in investment
discussions with any other company (whether or not competitive with the Company), provided that such Preferred Investor or the Permitted Disclosee does not, except as permitted in accordance with this Section 3.2, disclose or otherwise
make use of any proprietary or confidential information of the Company in connection with such activities, or (y) making any disclosures required by law, rule, regulation or court or other governmental order. 

3.3 Qualified Small Business Stock. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Series A Preferred Stock, Series
B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock issued and outstanding (such shares, the “Existing Preferred Stock,” and the Investors that are holders of such shares, the “Existing Holders”), as well as any shares
into which such shares of Existing Preferred Stock are converted, within the meaning of Section 1202(f) of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”), to constitute “qualified small business stock” as defined in
Section 1202(c) of the Code; provided, however, that such requirement shall not be applicable if 

  
 21 

 
the Board determines, in its good-faith business judgment, that such qualification is inconsistent with the best interests of the Company. The Company shall submit to its stockholders (including
the Existing Holders) and to the Internal Revenue Service any reports that may be required under Section 1202(d)(1)(C) of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder. In addition, within twenty (20) business days after any Existing
Holder’s written request therefor, the Company shall, at its option, either (i) deliver to such Existing Holder a written statement indicating whether (and what portion of) such Existing Holder’s interest in the Company constitutes
“qualified small business stock” as defined in Section 1202(c) of the Code or (ii) deliver to such Existing Holder such factual information in the Company’s possession as is reasonably necessary to enable such Existing
Holder to determine whether (and what portion of) such Existing Holder’s interest in the Company constitutes “qualified small business stock” as defined in Section 1202(c) of the Code. 

3.4 Termination of Covenants. The covenants set forth in this Section 3 shall terminate and be of no further force and
effect after the closing of the Company’s Initial Public Offering; provided the aggregate net proceeds of such Initial Public Offering to the Company (before deductions of underwriters’ commissions and expenses) equals or exceeds
$50,000,000 or, if a Direct Listing, the Board determines that the Company would reasonably be expected to have an enterprise wide value equal to or exceeding $500,000,000 on the first day of trading (a “Qualifying Listing”). 

SECTION 4 
 RIGHT
OF FIRST REFUSAL 
 4.1 Right of First Refusal to Significant Holders. The Company hereby grants to each Significant Holder the
right of first refusal to purchase its pro rata share of New Securities (as defined in this Section 4.1(a)) which the Company may, from time to time, propose to sell and issue after the date of this Agreement. A Significant Holder’s
pro rata share, for purposes of this right of first refusal, is equal to the ratio of (a) the number of shares of Common Stock owned by such Significant Holder immediately prior to the issuance of New Securities (assuming full conversion of the
Shares and full conversion or exercise of all outstanding convertible securities, rights, options and warrants held by said Significant Holder) to (b) the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the issuance of
New Securities (assuming full conversion of the Shares and full conversion or exercise of all outstanding convertible securities, rights, options and warrants). 

(a) “New Securities” shall mean any capital stock (including Common Stock and/or Preferred Stock) of the Company whether now
authorized or not, and rights, convertible securities, options or warrants to purchase such capital stock, and securities of any type whatsoever that are, or may become, exercisable or convertible into capital stock; provided that the term
“New Securities” does not include issuances or deemed issuances of securities exempted under Article V, Subsection (4)(d)(i) of the Company’s certificate of incorporation. 

(b) In the event the Company proposes to undertake an issuance of New Securities, it shall give each Significant Holder written notice of its
intention, describing the type of New Securities, and their price and the general terms upon which the Company proposes to issue the same and such Significant Holder’s pro rata share of such New Securities. Each

  
 22 

 
Significant Holder shall have ten (10) days after any such notice is mailed or delivered to agree to purchase such Holder’s pro rata share of such New Securities and to indicate whether
such Holder desires to exercise its over allotment option for the price and upon the terms specified in the notice by giving written notice to the Company, in substantially the form attached as Schedule 1, and stating therein the
quantity of New Securities to be purchased. 
 (c) In the event the Holders fail to exercise fully the right of first refusal and over
allotment rights, if any within said ten (10) day period (the “Election Period”), the Company shall have ninety (90) days thereafter to sell or enter into an agreement (pursuant to which the sale of New Securities covered
thereby shall be closed, if at all, within ninety (90) days from the date of said agreement) to sell that portion of the New Securities with respect to which the Significant Holders’ right of first refusal option set forth in this
Section 4.1 was not exercised, at a price and upon terms no more favorable to the purchasers thereof than specified in the Company’s notice to Significant Holders delivered pursuant to Section 4.1(b). In the event the
Company has not sold within such ninety (90) day period following the Election Period, or such ninety (90) day period following the date of said agreement (as may be applicable), the Company shall not thereafter issue or sell any New
Securities, without first again offering such securities to the Significant Holders in the manner provided in this Section 4.1. 

(d) The right of first refusal granted under this Agreement shall expire upon, and shall not be applicable to, the Company’s Initial
Public Offering. 
 SECTION 5 

ADDITIONAL COVENANTS 
 5.1
Employment Agreements; Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreements. The Company shall require each employee and consultant of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates to execute and deliver a nondisclosure and proprietary
information and inventions agreement containing confidentiality and assignment of inventions provisions in substantially the form approved by the Board. 

5.2 Employee Agreements. Unless otherwise approved by the Board (including a majority of the Preferred Directors then serving on the
Board (and in any event not less than one Preferred Director)), all future employees of the Company or any subsidiary, who shall purchase, or who shall receive options to purchase, shares of the Company’s Common Stock after the date hereof,
shall be required to execute stock purchase, stock restriction or option agreements, or amendments to existing agreements providing for (i) vesting of shares over a four-year period with the first twenty-five percent (25%) of such shares
vesting following twelve (12) months of continued employment or services, and the remaining shares vesting in equal monthly installments over the following thirty-six (36) months thereafter,
(ii) a one hundred eighty (180) day (subject to extension) lock-up period in connection with the Initial Public Offering with terms substantially similar to the terms set forth in
Section 2.10 hereof, (iii) a prohibition on transfers of shares without Board approval, except for estate planning purposes, and (iv) a right of first refusal on all proposed transfers of vested shares for the benefit of the
Company until the Initial Public Offering, except transfers for estate planning purposes. The Company shall have a right to repurchase any or all unvested shares of Common Stock at cost upon the termination of such employee’s service for the
Company or any subsidiary thereof and any unvested options shall lapse and revert to the unallocated but reserved option pool. The Company shall have a right to assign on a pro-rata basis its rights to
repurchase Common Stock to the Holders. 

  
 23 

 5.3 Board and Insurance Matters. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable
efforts to obtain, from financially sound and reputable insurers directors and officers liability insurance in an amount and upon terms and conditions reasonably satisfactory to the Preferred Investors, until such time as the Board (including a
majority of the Preferred Directors then serving on the Board (and in any event not less than one Preferred Director)) determines that such insurance should be modified or discontinued. The insurance shall not be cancellable by the Company without
the prior approval of the Board, including a majority of the Preferred Directors then serving on the Board (and in any event not less than one Preferred Director). 

5.4 Matters Requiring Preferred Directors Approval. As long as at least 1,600,000 shares of Preferred Stock (subject to appropriate
adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, combinations or the like) are outstanding, the Company and its subsidiaries shall not (by amendment, merger, consolidation or otherwise), without first obtaining the consent of a majority of the
Preferred Directors then serving on the Board (and in any event not less than one Preferred Director) (which consent may be given at a duly noticed and convened meeting of the Board (as shown in meeting minutes approved by the Board, including a
majority of the Preferred Directors then serving on the Board (and in any event not less than one Preferred Director)) or given in writing) do any of the following: 

(a) make any fundamental change in the nature of the business; 

(b) create any subsidiary that is not wholly owned by the Company; 

(c) sell more than 20% of the assets of the Company and any of its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or acquire assets equal to or greater than
20% of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, prior to such acquisition; 
 (d) incur or guarantee debt
obligations in excess of $500,000; or 
 (e) enter into any agreements with a member of the Board or any subsidiary, an officer of the
Company or any subsidiary or a shareholder of the Company holding more than five percent or more of the Common Stock on a fully converted basis. 

5.5 Indemnification Matters. The Company hereby acknowledges that the directors nominated to serve on the Board by the Investors (each a
“Fund Director”) may have certain rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and/or insurance provided by one or more of the Investors and certain of their affiliates (collectively, the “Fund Indemnitors”).
The Company hereby agrees (a) that it is the indemnitor of first resort (i.e., its obligations to any such Fund Director are primary and any obligation of the Fund Indemnitors to advance expenses or to provide indemnification for the same
expenses or liabilities incurred by such Fund Director are secondary), (b) that it shall be required to advance the full amount of expenses incurred by such Fund Director and shall be liable for the full amount of all expenses, judgments,
penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement by or on behalf of any such Fund Director to the extent legally permitted and as required by the Restated Certificate or Bylaws of the Company (or any agreement between the

  
 24 

 
Company and such Fund Director), without regard to any rights such Fund Director may have against the Fund Indemnitors, and, (c) that it irrevocably waives, relinquishes and releases the
Fund Indemnitors from any and all claims against the Fund Indemnitors for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof. The Company further agrees that no advancement or payment by the Fund Indemnitors on behalf of
any such Fund Director with respect to any claim for which such Fund Director has sought indemnification from the Company shall affect the foregoing and the Fund Indemnitors shall have a right of contribution and/or be subrogated to the extent of
such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of such Fund Director against the Company. In the event that the Company merges with another entity and is not the surviving corporation, or transfers all or substantially all of its
assets, or otherwise engages in a reorganization as described in Article V, Section 3(d) of the Restated Certificate, the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to make provisions so that the successor of the Company assumes all
of the Company’s indemnification obligations pursuant to this Section 5.5. 
 5.6 Compliance with Laws. The Company
shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause each employee and consultant of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates to comply with all applicable anti-corruption laws and regulations (including without limitation the Foreign
Corrupt Practices Act), all applicable trade and economic sanctions laws and regulations (including without limitation regulations administered and enforced by the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control), and all applicable
laws and regulations relating to the exportation of goods or software out of the U.S. (including without limitation the Export Administration Regulations and the International Traffic in Arms Regulations). The Company shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to adopt and maintain policies, procedures and controls reasonably designed to ensure compliance with this Section 5.6.     

5.7 Termination of Covenants. The covenants set forth in this Section 5 shall terminate and be of no further force and
effect after the closing of the Company’s Initial Public Offering; provided the aggregate net proceeds of such Initial Public Offering to the Company (before deductions of underwriters’ commissions and expenses) equals or exceeds
$50,000,000 or if a Direct Listing is a Qualifying Listing. 
 SECTION 6

operates 

  
 25

Securities (excluding any of such shares that have been sold to the public or pursuant to Rule 144, and excluding, with respect to Section 2 (other than Sections 2.8, 2.9 and 2.10), any of such shares held
by any Holders whose rights to request registration or inclusion in any registration pursuant to Section 2 have terminated in accordance with Section 2.14) will have the right and power to diminish or eliminate all rights of
such Holder under this Agreement.

confirmation of facsimile transfer or, if sent via electronic mail, upon confirmation of delivery when directed to the relevant electronic mail address, if sent during normal business hours of the recipient, or if not sent during normal business

 Subject to the limitations set forth in Delaware General
Corporation Law §232(e), each Investor and Holder consents to the delivery of any notice to stockholders given by the Company under the Delaware General Corporation Law or the Company’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws by
(i) facsimile telecommunication to the facsimile number set forth on Exhibit A (or to any other facsimile number for the Investor or Holder in the Company’s records), (ii) electronic mail to the electronic mail address set
forth on Exhibit A (or to any other electronic mail address for the Investor or Holder in the Company’s records), (iii) posting on an electronic network together with separate notice to the Investor or Holder of such specific
posting or (iv) any other form of electronic transmission (as defined in the Delaware General Corporation Law) directed to the Investor or Holder. This consent may be revoked by an Investor or Holder by written notice to the Company and may be
deemed revoked in the circumstances specified in Delaware General Corporation Law §232. 
 6.3 Governing Law. This Agreement
shall be governed in all respects by the internal laws of the State of Delaware as applied to agreements entered into among Delaware residents to be performed entirely within Delaware, without regard to principles of conflicts of law that would
result in the application of the laws of a different jurisdiction. 
 6.4 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement, and any and all
rights, duties and obligations hereunder, shall not be assigned, transferred, delegated or sublicensed by any Investor without the prior written consent of the Company. Any attempt by an Investor without such permission to assign, transfer, delegate
or sublicense any rights, duties or obligations that arise under this Agreement shall be void. Subject to the foregoing and except as otherwise provided herein, the provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the
successors, assigns, heirs, executors and administrators of the parties hereto. 
 6.5 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the
exhibits hereto constitute the full and entire understanding and agreement between the parties with regard to the subjects hereof. No party hereto shall be liable or bound to any other party in any manner with regard to the subjects hereof or
thereof by any warranties, representations or covenants except as specifically set forth herein. The Prior Rights Agreement is hereby terminated and all provisions of, rights granted and covenants made in the Prior Agreement are hereby waived,
released and superseded in their entirety and shall have no further force or effect, including, without limitation, all rights of first refusal and any notice period associated therewith otherwise applicable to the transactions contemplated by the
Purchase Agreement. 

  
 27 

 6.6 Delays or Omissions. Except as expressly provided herein, no delay or omission to
exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to any party to this Agreement upon any breach or default of any other party under this Agreement shall impair any such right, power or remedy of such
non-defaulting party, nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach or default, or an acquiescence therein, or of or in any similar breach or default thereafter occurring, nor shall any waiver of
any single breach or default be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default theretofore or thereafter occurring. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on the part of any party of any breach or default under this
Agreement, or any waiver on the part of any party of any provisions or conditions of this Agreement, must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing. All remedies, either under this Agreement or by
law or otherwise afforded to any party to this Agreement, shall be cumulative and not alternative. 
 6.7 Severability. If any
provision of this Agreement becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, unenforceable or void, portions of such provision, or such provision in its entirety, to the extent necessary, shall be severed from this
Agreement, and such court will replace such illegal, void or unenforceable provision of this Agreement with a valid and enforceable provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the same economic, business and other purposes of the illegal,
void or unenforceable provision. The balance of this Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms. 
 6.8 Titles and
Subtitles. The titles and subtitles used in this Agreement are used for convenience only and are not to be considered in construing or interpreting this Agreement. All references in this Agreement to sections, paragraphs and exhibits shall,
unless otherwise provided, refer to sections and paragraphs hereof and exhibits attached hereto. 
 6.9 Counterparts. This Agreement
may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be enforceable against the parties that execute such counterparts, and all of which together shall constitute one instrument. 

6.10 Telecopy Execution and Delivery. A facsimile, telecopy, pdf or other reproduction of this Agreement may be executed by one or more
parties hereto and delivered by such party by facsimile or any similar electronic transmission device pursuant to which the signature of or on behalf of such party can be seen. Such execution and delivery shall be considered valid, binding and
effective for all purposes. At the request of any party hereto, all parties hereto agree to execute and deliver an original of this Agreement as well as any facsimile, telecopy, pdf or other reproduction hereof. 

6.11 Jurisdiction; Venue. With respect to any disputes arising out of or related to this Agreement, the parties consent to the
jurisdiction of, and venue in, the state courts in Santa Clara County in the State of California, the federal courts of the Northern District of California or Delaware Court of Chancery. 

  
 28 

 6.12 Further Assurances. Each party hereto agrees to execute and deliver, by the
proper exercise of its corporate, limited liability company, partnership or other powers, all such other and additional instruments and documents and do all such other acts and things as may be necessary to more fully effectuate this Agreement. 

6.13 Termination Upon Change of Control. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Agreement (excluding any then existing
obligations) shall terminate upon a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company as set forth in Section 3(d) of the Restated Certificate. 

6.14 Attorneys’ Fees. In the event that any suit or action is instituted to enforce any provision in this Agreement, the prevailing
party in such dispute shall be entitled to recover from the losing party such reasonable fees and expenses of attorneys and accountants, which shall include, without limitation, all fees, costs and expenses of appeals. 

6.15 Aggregation of Stock. All securities held or acquired by affiliated entities or persons of an Investor (including but not limited
to: (i) a constituent partner or a retired partner of an Investor that is a partnership; (ii) a parent, subsidiary or other affiliate of an Investor that is a corporation; (iii) an immediate family member living in the same household,
a descendant, or a trust, in the case of an Investor who is an individual; (iv) a member or retired member of an Investor that is a limited liability company and (v) venture capital or private equity funds that are controlled by or under
common control with one or more general partners or managing members of, or share the same management company or are under common investment management with, or are otherwise affiliated with, an Investor) shall be aggregated together for the purpose
of determining the availability of any rights under this Agreement which are triggered by the beneficial ownership of a threshold number of shares of the Company’s capital stock; provided, however, that the securities held by Accel
London III L.P. and Accel London Investors 2012 L.P. shall not be aggregated together with the securities held by Accel Growth Fund IV L.P., Accel Growth Fund IV Strategic Partners L.P. and Accel Growth Fund Investors 2016, L.L.C. for purposes of
determining the availability of any rights under this Agreement. 
 6.16 Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY
WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING (WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT. If the waiver of jury trial set forth in this
section is not enforceable, then any claim or cause of action arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be settled by judicial reference pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure Section 638 et seq. before a referee sitting
without a jury, such referee to be mutually acceptable to the parties or, if no agreement is reached, by a referee appointed by the Presiding Judge of the California Superior Court for Santa Clara County. This paragraph shall not restrict a party
from exercising remedies under the Uniform Commercial Code or from exercising pre-judgment remedies under applicable law.
