 Page 28

	 	
Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient through its Payment Account promptly following receipt thereof.

  

	(b)	If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case
of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder or under the Security Agreement shall be made in USD. 

 

	(c)	Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account
of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the
Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender with interest
thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on
interbank compensation. 

  

	(d)	Except to the extent otherwise provided herein: (i) each payment or prepayment of principal of any Loan (and of any fee payable under Section 3.2(d)) by the
Borrower shall be made for account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective portions of the unpaid principal amount of such Loan held by them; (ii) each payment of interest on any Loan by the Borrower shall be made for account
of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the amounts of interest on their respective portions of such Loan then due and payable to the Lenders; (iii) each fee payable by the Borrower under Section 3.2(b) or 3.2(c) shall be made for
account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares; and (iv) each reduction of Commitments shall be made for account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares.

  

	(e)	Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each
Loan, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. The entries made in such accounts shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein;
provided that the failure of any Lender to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay any Loan, and to pay interest thereon or any fee hereunder, in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement. 

  

	(f)	 Any Lender may request that the portion of the Loans owing to such Lender be evidenced by a Note. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute
and deliver to such Lender a Note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns). Thereafter, the portion of the Loans evidenced by

  
 Page 29

	 	
such Note and interest on such principal shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant hereto) be represented by one or more Notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named
therein (or, if such Note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns). 

  

	(g)	If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any portion of any
Loan owing to such Lender resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion thereof then due than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value)
participations in the amounts owing to the other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with paragraph (d) above; provided that (i) if any such
participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the
provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or
sale of a participation in any portion of any Loan to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). The Borrower consents to the foregoing
and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of set off and counterclaim with respect to such
participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

 Taxes 

 

	3.9(a)	 All payments under this Agreement for account of the Administrative Agent or any Lender will be made without any deduction or withholding for or on
account of any present or future tax, levy, impost, duty, charge, assessment or fee of any nature (a Tax) unless such deduction or withholding is required by any applicable law, as modified by

  
 Page 33

	 	
the practice of any relevant governmental revenue authority, then in effect. If the Borrower is required to withhold or deduct for or on account of any Tax in respect of this Agreement for
account of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, the Borrower will: (1) promptly notify the affected payee of such requirement; (2) pay to the relevant authorities the full amount required to be deducted or withheld promptly upon the
earlier of determining that such deduction or withholding is required or receiving notice that such amount has been assessed; (3) promptly forward to the affected payee (with a copy to the Administrative Agent if it is not the affected payee)
an official receipt (or a certified copy) evidencing such payment to such authorities; and (4) unless such Tax is an Excluded Tax pay to such payee such additional amount (an Additional Amount) as is necessary to ensure that the
net amount actually received by such payee (free and clear of all Taxes other than Excluded Taxes, whether assessed against the Borrower or such payee) will equal the full amount such payee would have received in respect of this Agreement had no
such deduction or withholding been required; provided that the Borrower will not be required to pay any Additional Amount with respect to any Tax that is: 

 

	 	(i)	imposed other than by withholding (except, for the avoidance of doubt, any Tax assessed directly against a Lender or the Administrative Agent for which the Borrower is
required to indemnify the Lender or Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.1); 

  

	 	(ii)	an estate, inheritance, gift, sale, transfer, personal property or similar tax; 

 

	 	(iii)	imposed by reason of the failure of such payee, or beneficial owner of an interest in this Agreement if not such payee (after reasonable notice by such payee), to
comply with Section 3.9(b) (unless such failure results from a Change in Tax Law or a change in a tax treaty to which the United States of America is a party); or 

 

	 	(iv)	imposed by reason of any combination of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii); 

 provided, further, that no Lender shall be entitled to receive Additional Amounts in respect of any Tax required to be withheld under the laws of the United States of America (including any tax
treaties to which the United States of America is a party) in effect on the date (x) such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement or (y) such Lender changes its lending office, except, that (X) consistent with
Section 8.4(d), any Lender that is an assignee shall be entitled to Additional Amounts if and only to the extent the assigning Lender was entitled to such amounts immediately prior to the assignment, (Y) consistent with
Section 8.4(f), any Participant shall be entitled to Additional Amounts if and only to the extent the Lender selling the participation was entitled to such amounts immediately before the sale of the participation and (Z) if a Lender
changes its lending office, such Lender shall remain entitled to receive any Additional Amounts if and only to the extent it was entitled to receive immediately prior to changing its lending office. 

 

	(b)	 Each payee or beneficial owner of an interest in this Agreement if such payee (after reasonable notice by such payee) shall, to the extent it is
legally entitled to, deliver to the Borrower such properly completed and executed documentation (including the applicable 

  
 Page 34

	 	
IRS Form W-9 and applicable W-8 and any attachments or supplements thereto) prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without
withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding, provided that, with respect to any withholding under FATCA, only the provisions of Section 3.9(c) shall apply to any documentation to be delivered. 

 

	(c)	If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the
applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and
at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent documentation necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and
withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 3.9(b), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. 

 

	(d)	Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification provided pursuant to Section 3.9(b) or 3.9(c) expires or, to its knowledge, becomes obsolete or inaccurate in
any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. 

 

	(e)	If (i) Borrower is required to pay any Additional Amount under this Section 3.9 to a Foreign Lender or (ii) a Change in Tax Law would result upon the
passage of time, in a payment of an Additional Amount to a Foreign Lender, then such Foreign Lender shall take such steps as may be reasonably available to it to mitigate the effects of such Change in Tax Law (which shall include efforts
to rebook this Agreement at another lending office or through another branch or an affiliate of the Foreign Lender), provided that such Foreign Lender shall not be required to take any step that would be materially disadvantageous to its
business or operations (as determined by the Foreign Lender in its sole reasonable discretion). If the Foreign Lender does not promptly take the steps necessary to avoid the need for Additional Amounts, the Borrower shall have the right to
redomicile (in consultation with the Initial Lender) in a jurisdiction that would not give rise to a withholding obligation. 

  

	(f)	If the Borrower makes a payment of any Additional Amount and the affected payee receives a refund, credit or other tax benefit that is attributable to the Tax in
respect of which the Additional Amount is paid, such payee will promptly upon receipt of such refund, credit or benefit, pay to the Borrower such amount as will in such payee’s reasonable determination, leave such payee no better or worse off
than if no payment of the Additional Amounts had been required; provided that nothing herein will limit the ability of such payee to prepare its tax returns in the manner it so determines in its sole discretion. 

 

	(g)	 The Borrower will pay any Stamp Tax levied or imposed upon the Borrower or in respect of its execution or performance of this Agreement by a
jurisdiction in which it is incorporated, organized, managed and controlled, or considered to have its seat, or in 

  
 Page 35

	 	
which a branch or office through which it is acting for the purpose of this Agreement is located (Stamp Tax Jurisdiction) and will indemnify the affected payee (and, to the extent
it has made any payment on behalf of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent) against any such Stamp Tax levied or imposed upon such payee or in respect of such payee’s execution or performance of this Agreement by any such Stamp Tax
Jurisdiction which is not also a Stamp Tax Jurisdiction with respect to such payee. 

 Alternate Rate of Interest

  

	3.10	If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period: 

  

	(a)	the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining
LIBOR for such Interest Period; or 

  

	(b)	the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that LIBOR for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of making
or maintaining their respective portions of the Loans for such Interest Period; 

 then the Administrative Agent shall give notice
thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, the Loans shall bear interest
at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate on each day plus (i) during the Drawdown Period, 2.25%. and (ii) thereafter, 2.50%. 
 Increased Costs 
  

	3.11(a)	If any Change in Law shall: 

  

	 	(i)	impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any
Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in LIBOR); or 

  

	 	(ii)	impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or the portion of the Loan made or maintained by such Lender;

 and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining
their respective portions of the Loans or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise, but excluding increased costs or reductions in the amount of any sum received or
receivable resulting from (1) an Excluded Tax or (2) a Tax to the extent Additional Amounts are required to be paid under Section 3.9(a) (or would be but for clause (ii) or (iii) of the first proviso to
Section 3.9(a))), then the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. 

  
 Page 36

	(b)	If any Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital
or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the portion of the Loans made or maintained by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could
have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender
such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. 

  

	(c)	A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph
(a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

  

	(d)	Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such
compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than six months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower
of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is
retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. 

Break Funding Payments 
 3.12 In the
event that (a) the payment of any principal of any Loan is made on any date other than a Payment Date (including as a result of an Event of Default) or (b) the Borrower fails to borrow any Loan or a portion thereof on the related Borrowing
Date after giving notice of such borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that such Lender would pay for a
deposit equal to the principal amount of its portion of such Loan for the period from the date of such payment to the last day of the then current Interest Period for such Loan (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, equal to its portion of the
amount of such borrowing for the duration of the Interest Period that would have resulted from such borrowing) if the interest rate payable on such deposit were equal to LIBOR for such Interest Period over (b) the amount of interest that such
Lender would earn on such principal amount for such period if such Lender were to invest such principal amount for such period at the interest rate that would be bid by such Lender (or an affiliate of such Lender) for dollar deposits from other
banks in the eurodollar market at the commencement of such period. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be
conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. 

  
 Page 37

 Right of Set-Off 
 3.13 The Borrower agrees that, in addition to (and without limitation of) any right of set-off that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may otherwise have, each of the Administrative Agent and the
Lenders shall be entitled, at its option, to offset amounts owing by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, to the Borrower, in USD or in any other currency (irrespective of the place of payment or booking office of the
obligation and regardless of whether such amounts are then due to the Borrower), against any amount payable by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, under this Agreement that is not paid when due. For this
purpose, any amount owing by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to the Borrower may be converted by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, into the currency in which the amount payable by the Borrower to the Administrative
Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, under this Agreement is denominated at the rate of exchange at which the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, would be able, acting in a reasonable manner and in good faith, to purchase
the relevant amount of such currency. 
 Contractual Currency 
 3.14 To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, if any judgment or order expressed in a currency other than the currency in which a payment is required by this Agreement is to be made by the
Borrower (the Contractual Currency) is rendered: 
  

	(a)	for the payment of any amount owing in respect of this Agreement; or 

  

	(b)	in respect of a judgment or order of another court for the payment of any amount described in the foregoing clause (a), 

the recipient of such payment, after recovery in full of the aggregate amount to which the recipient of such payment is entitled pursuant to the judgment
or order, will be entitled to receive immediately from the Borrower the amount of any shortfall of the Contractual Currency received by the recipient of such payment as a consequence of sums being paid in such other currency if such shortfall arises
or results from any variation between the rate of exchange at which the Contractual Currency is converted into the currency of the judgment or order for the purposes of such judgment or order and the rate of exchange at which the recipient of such
payment is able, acting in a reasonable manner and in good faith in converting the currency received into the Contractual Currency, to purchase the Contractual Currency with the amount of the currency of the judgment or order actually received by
the recipient of such payment. The term “rate of exchange” includes any premiums and costs of exchange payable in connection with the purchase of or conversion into the Contractual Currency. 

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the indemnities in this Section constitute separate and independent obligations from the other
obligations in this Agreement and any related document, will be enforceable as separate and independent causes of action, will apply notwithstanding any indulgence granted by the recipient of such payment and will not be affected by judgment being
obtained or claim or proof being made for any other sums payable in respect of this Agreement or any related document. The Borrower hereby waives the right to invoke any defense of payment impossibility. 

  
 Page 38

 Lender Replacement 
 3.15 If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.11, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amounts to any Lender or any governmental authority for the account of any Lender
pursuant to Section 3.9, or if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse
(in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 8.4(c)), all its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Sections 3.9 and 3.11) and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that
shall acquire and assume such interests, rights and obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding
principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any commitment reduction fee payable under Section 3.2(d)) and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of
such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (ii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.11 or payments required to be
made pursuant to Section 3.9, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments based on a certification made in good faith by the Borrower and delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Lender that has made a claim
for compensation under Section 3.11 or a request for payment under Section 3.9. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the
circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

(iii) alter the manner in which payments or prepayments of principal, interest or other amounts hereunder shall be applied as among the Lenders without the written consent of each Lender, (iv) change any of the provisions of this
Section or the definition of the term “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights

  
 Page 52

	 	
hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender, (v) release any Collateral (but without limiting Section 7.8) or
(vi) modify the commitment of any Lender to extend credit hereunder without the written consent of each Lender; and provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the
Administrative Agent without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. 

  

	(b)	The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby,
except that (i) the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall
be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section (and any attempted assignment or transfer by any Lender that is not in accordance with
this Section shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and any indemnitees
referred to herein) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 

  

	(c)	Any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement), subject to the requirements that:

  

	 	(i)	except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s portion of
the Loans shall not be less than USD5,000,000 unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

  

	 	(ii)	except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender, the Borrower shall consent to such assignment if the assignee is not an Eligible Assignee
(which consent the Borrower may give or withhold in its sole discretion), provided that, unless such assignment is to a Competitor, no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

  

	 	(iii)	the assigning Lender shall have given the Borrower at least one Business Day’s notice of such assignment, provided that no such notice shall be required if
an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; 

  

	 	(iv)	each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement;

  

	 	(v)	the assignee shall have certified to the Borrower that it is a “qualified purchaser” (within the meaning given to such term in Section 2(a)(51) of the
Investment Company Act); and 

  

	 	(vi)	the assignee, if it shall not already be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. 

  
 Page 53

	(d)	Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (e) below and the payment of a recordation fee to the Administrative Agent by the Assignor in an
amount equal to USD3,500, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights
and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an
Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto, but shall continue to be entitled to the rights referred to in Sections 3.9, 3.11
and 8.1). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and
obligations in accordance with paragraph (f) below. 

  

	(e)	The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in New York City a copy of each Assignment and
Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and respective principal amounts of (and stated interest on) the portions of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from
time to time (the Register). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a
Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the Administrative
Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph
(e). 

  

	(f)	 Any Lender may, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a Participant) in all or a portion of such Lender’s
rights and obligations under this Agreement; provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the
performance of such obligations, (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement
and (iv) each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.9 and 3.11 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (c) above, except that no Participant shall be
entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to Section 3.9 than the transferor Lender would have been entitled to receive in respect of the amount of the participation transferred by such transferor Lender to such Participant had no such
transfer occurred (such that the 

  
 Page 54

	 	
amount of payments made by the Borrower pursuant to Section 3.9 shall be unaffected by the sale of any such participation). Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such
a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may
provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 8.4(a) that affects such Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each
Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.13 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the
name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the Participant Register); provided, however, that
no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (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) 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. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the
owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. 

  

	(g)	Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including
any such pledge or assignment to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender
from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 

  

	(h)	Anything in this Section to the contrary notwithstanding, no Lender may assign or participate any interest in the portion of the Loans held by it hereunder to the
Borrower or any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries without the prior consent of each Lender. 

  

	(i)	The Initial Lender hereby certifies (and agrees with) to the Borrower that the Initial Lender is a “qualified purchaser” (within the meaning given to
such term in Section 2(a)(51) of the Investment Company Act). 

  

	(j)	Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to be bound by the confidentiality provisions of each Debt Obligation Credit Agreement with respect to all
information and documentation in relation to the Debt Obligation or an Obligor thereon delivered hereunder to the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders acknowledges that such
information may include material non-public information concerning an Obligor on any Debt Obligation or its securities and agrees to use such information in accordance with applicable law, including Federal and State securities laws.

(iv) attachment of its assets (whether before or after judgment) and (v) execution or enforcement of any judgment to which it or its revenues or assets might otherwise be entitled in any Proceedings in the courts of any jurisdiction and

representation or warranty of the Borrower under this Agreement against any of the Borrower’s shareholders, officers, directors, members and managers, except that the foregoing will not (i) prevent recourse to the Collateral for the sums
due or to become due under any security, instrument or agreement which is part of the Collateral, (ii) relieve any Person from (A) any liability for any unpaid consideration for stock, any unpaid capital contribution or any unpaid capital
call or other similar obligation, (B) any liability arising under the Equity Contribution
