 Exhibit 10.15 
 EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 
 THIS AGREEMENT by and among Freescale Semiconductor, Inc. (the
“Company”), Freescale Holdings GP, Ltd. (the “GP”), and Sandeep Chennakeshu (the “Executive”) dated as of the 1st day of December, 2006 supersedes and replaces, in its entirety, the employment
agreement by and between the Executive and the Company dated May 12, 2006. 
 WHEREAS, the Company, Freescale Holdings, L.P. (the
“Parent”), and Freescale Acquisition Corporation, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Parent (“Merger Sub”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of September 15, 2006, (the
“Merger Agreement”) pursuant to which Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”) and, as a result of which, the Company will be an indirect subsidiary of the Parent; 
 WHEREAS, in connection with the Merger, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) and the Board of Directors of the GP, the
managing general partner of Parent (the “Parent Board”) have determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its parents and ultimate owners for the Executive to continue to serve as the Company’s Senior Vice
President and General Manager of the Wireless & Mobile Systems Group (“WMSG”), on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement; 
 WHEREAS, the Executive desires to accept such service, subject to the terms and provisions of this Agreement. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is mutually acknowledged, the Company and the Executive (individually a
“Party” and together the “Parties”) agree as follows: 
 1. Effective Date. The “Effective
Date” shall mean the Effective Time (as defined in the Merger Agreement). 
 2. Employment Period. The Company hereby agrees
to continue to employ the Executive, and the Executive hereby agrees to continue to be employed by the Company, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, for the period commencing on the Effective Date and ending at least 90 days after
the Company or the Executive delivers a written Notice of Termination, as defined below, to the other Party that the employment period shall terminate (the period of such employment to be called the “Employment Period”). 

3. Terms of Employment. (a) Position and Duties. (i) During the Employment Period, the Executive shall continue to serve as a
Senior Vice President of the Company and General Manager of the WMSG, with such duties and responsibilities as are commensurate with such position, and shall report to the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The Executive’s
principal location of employment shall be at the principal headquarters of the Company; provided, however, that the Executive may be required under reasonable business 

 
circumstances to travel outside of the applicable principal location of employment in connection with performing his duties under this Agreement. As used in
this Agreement, the term “affiliate” of an entity shall include any entity controlled by, controlling, or under common control with such entity. 
 (ii) The Executive agrees that during the Employment Period, he shall devote all of his business time, energies and talents to serving as
the Company’s Senior Vice President and General Manager of the WMSG, and perform his duties conscientiously and faithfully subject to the lawful directions of the boards, and in accordance with each of the Company’s corporate governance
and ethics guidelines, conflict of interests policies, and codes of conduct (collectively, the “Company Policies”). During the Employment Period, it shall not be a violation of this Agreement for the Executive, subject to the
requirements of Section 10, to (A) serve on corporate, civic or charitable boards or committees; provided, that, without the written approval of the Parent Board, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, the Executive shall not serve on
more than one such corporate board, (B) deliver lectures or fulfill speaking engagements and (C) manage personal investments, so long as such activities do not interfere with the performance of the Executive’s responsibilities under
this Agreement, or violate any Company Policies. The Executive acknowledges that he has been provided copies of the existing Company Policies. 
 (b) Compensation. 
 (i) Base Salary. During the Employment Period, the Executive shall receive an
annualized base salary (“Annual Base Salary”) of not less than $700,000, payable pursuant to the Company’s normal payroll practices. During the Employment Period, the current Annual Base Salary shall be reviewed for increase at
such time, and in the same manner, as the salaries of senior officers of the Company are reviewed generally; provided that the Executive’s first such review shall occur no earlier than January 2007. 
 (ii) Annual Bonus. For each fiscal year of the Company completed during the Employment Period, the Executive shall be eligible to
receive an annual cash bonus (“Annual Bonus”) based upon performance targets that are established by the Compensation and Leadership Committee of the Parent Board (the “Committee”); provided that, the
Executive’s target Annual Bonus shall be equal to $500,000 (the “Target Bonus”). The business performance factor of the Executive’s Target Bonus for fiscal year 2006 will be based upon two sets of metrics: the WMSG targets
will represent 25% of the business performance factor, and the Company targets will represent the other 75% of the business performance factor. The Executive’s Target Bonus for calendar year 2006 shall be prorated based on the portion of such
year the Executive is employed with the Company beginning on May 12, 2006. 
 (iii) Long-Term Incentive Awards. In
connection with the Merger, the Executive shall be granted a 0.4% profits interest in the Parent subject in all respects to 

  

 2 

 
the terms and conditions of the Freescale Holdings L.P. Award Agreement attached hereto as Annex A (the “Award Agreement”), the
Freescale Holdings L.P. 2006 Interest Plan (the “Interest Plan”) and the Investors Agreement (as defined in the Interest Plan). The foregoing grant shall vest in equal annual installments over four (4) years. The Executive
shall be eligible to participate in any long-term incentive plans or programs established by the Company for its senior officers generally, at levels commensurate with the benefits provided to other senior officers and with adjustments appropriate
for his position as a Senior Vice President of the Company. Any awards made under this Section shall be referred to in this Agreement as the “Equity Awards.” 
 (iv) Signing Bonus. The Executive acknowledges that the Company has paid the Executive a signing bonus in the gross amount of
$1,000,000 (One Million Dollars). If the Executive’s employment ends prior to May 31, 2007 for Cause or due to voluntary termination without Good Reason, the Executive agrees to repay to the Company the entire Signing Bonus (less the
amount withheld by the Company for taxes and other Federal withholding requirements at the time of payment of the bonus). Such payment will be made within 60 days of the termination of employment. 
 (v) Benefits. During the Employment Period, the Executive shall be eligible for participation in the welfare, retirement,
perquisite and fringe benefit (including relocation, financial planning, and automobile), and other benefit plans, practices, policies and programs, as may be in effect from time to time, for senior officers of the Company generally; provided, that,
any severance payments or benefits to be received under any severance benefit plans, practices, policies and programs shall be offset and reduced by any severance benefits or payments received under this Agreement. 
 (vi) Expenses. During the Employment Period, the Executive shall be eligible for prompt reimbursement for business expenses
reasonably incurred by the Executive in accordance with the policies of the Company as may be in effect from time to time for senior officers generally. 
 (vii) Vacation. During the Employment Period, the Executive shall be eligible for paid vacation in accordance with the policies of the Company as may be in effect from time to time for senior officers
generally. 
 (c) Other Entities. The Executive agrees to serve upon request, without additional compensation, as an officer and
director for each of the Company’s subsidiaries, partnerships, joint ventures, limited liability companies and other entities, which, in each case, are affiliates, including entities in which the Company has a significant investment
(collectively, the Company and such entities, called the “Affiliated Group”), as determined by the Company. 
 4.
Termination of Employment. (a) Death or Disability. The Executive’s employment shall terminate automatically upon the Executive’s death during the Employment Period. If the Company determines in good faith that the
Disability of the Executive has occurred during the Employment Period (pursuant to the definition of Disability set forth below), 

  

 3 

 
it may provide the Executive with written notice in accordance with Section 12(b) of this Agreement of its intention to terminate the Executive’s
employment. In such event, the Executive’s employment with the Company shall terminate effective on the 30th day after receipt of such notice by the Executive (the “Disability Effective Date”); provided that, within the 30-day
period after such receipt, the Executive shall not have returned to full time performance of the Executive’s duties. For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” shall mean the inability of the Executive to perform his duties
with the Company on a full-time basis for 180 consecutive days or for 180 intermittent days in any one-year period as a result of incapacity due to mental or physical illness which is determined to be total and permanent by a licensed physician
selected by the Company or its insurers and reasonably acceptable to the Executive or the Executive’s legal representative. If the Parties cannot agree on a licensed physician, each Party shall select a licensed physician and the two physicians
shall select a third who shall be the approved licensed physician for this purpose. 
 (b) Cause. The Company may terminate the
Executive’s employment during the Employment Period with or without Cause. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean: 
 (i) the Executive’s willful and continued failure to substantially perform his duties under this Agreement, other than any such failure resulting from incapacity due to physical or mental illness, which failure
has continued for a period of at least 30 days following delivery to the Executive of a written demand by the Parent Board for substantial performance specifying the manner in which the Executive has failed to substantially perform; or 

(ii) the Executive’s willful engagement in malfeasance, fraud, dishonesty or misconduct (other than dishonesty or misconduct that
has no detrimental impact on the Company’s reputation or business); 
 (iii) the Executive’s conviction of, or plea
of guilty or nolo contendere to, a felony or misdemeanor (other than a misdemeanor traffic offense); or 
 (iv) the
Executive’s material breach of Section 3(a) or Section 10 of this Agreement. 
 (c) Good Reason. The Executive’s
employment may be terminated by the Executive for Good Reason if (x) an event or circumstance set forth in the clauses of this Section 4(c) below shall have occurred and the Executive provides the Company with written notice thereof within
30 days after the Executive has knowledge of the occurrence or existence of such event or circumstance, which notice shall specifically identify the event or circumstance that the Executive believes constitutes Good Reason, (y) the Company
fails to correct the circumstance or event so identified within 30 days after the receipt of such notice, and (z) the Executive resigns within 60 days after the date of delivery of the notice referred to in clause (x) above. For purposes
of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean, in the absence of the Executive’s written consent or in consequence of a prior termination or a Notice of Termination of the Executive’s employment, the occurrence of any of the
following: 
 (i) a reduction by the Company in the Executive’s Annual Base Salary or a reduction in the Executive’s
Target Bonus; or 
  

 4 

 (ii) a material reduction in the aggregate level of employee benefits made available to
the Executive when compared to the benefits made available to the Executive at any time during the Employment Period, unless such reduction is applicable to senior officers of the Company generally; or 
 (iii) a material diminution in the Executive’s duties or responsibilities (other than as a result of the Executive’s physical or
mental incapacity which impairs his ability to materially perform his duties or responsibilities as confirmed by a doctor reasonably acceptable to the Executive or his representative and such diminution lasts only for so long as such doctor
determines such incapacity impairs the Executive’s ability to materially perform his duties or responsibilities) as a Senior Vice President of the Company and General Manager of the WMSG; provided, however, that in no event will there be deemed
to be a Good Reason with respect to the Executive on account of a lateral change to the Executive’s duties that does not affect the Executive’s reporting relationships; or 
 (iv) a material change in the Executive’s reporting relationship that is inconsistent with the terms of the first sentence of
Section 3(a)(i); or 
 (v) the Company requiring the Executive’s principal location of employment to be at any
office or location more than 35 miles from the principal headquarters of the Company (other than to the extent agreed to or requested by the Executive) on the Effective Date; or 
 (vi) a failure of the Company to comply with Section 11(b). 
 (d) Voluntary Termination. The Executive may voluntarily terminate his employment without Good Reason (other than due to death, Disability or
retirement), and such termination shall not be deemed to be a breach of this Agreement. 
 (e) Notice of Termination. Any termination
by the Company for Cause or without Cause, or by the Executive for Good Reason, shall be communicated by Notice of Termination to the other Party hereto given in accordance with Section 12(b) of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, a
“Notice of Termination” means a written notice which (i) indicates the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon, where applicable, (ii) to the extent applicable, sets forth in reasonable detail the
facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of the Executive’s employment under the provision so indicated and (iii) if the Date of Termination (as defined below) is other than the date of receipt of such 

  

 5 

 
notice, specifies the termination date (which date shall be not more than thirty days after the giving of such notice). The failure by the Executive or the
Company to set forth in the Notice of Termination any fact or circumstance which contributes to a showing of Good Reason or Cause shall not waive any right of the Executive or the Company, respectively, hereunder or preclude the Executive or the
Company, respectively, from asserting such fact or circumstance in enforcing the Executive’s or the Company’s rights hereunder. 
 (f) Date of Termination. “Date of Termination” means (i) if the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company for Cause or by the Executive for Good Reason, the date of receipt of the Notice of
Termination or any later date specified therein within 30 days of such notice, as the case may be, (ii) if the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company other than for Cause, the 90th day after the Notice of Termination is given,
or in the case of Disability, or if the Executive voluntarily resigns without Good Reason, the date on which the terminating Party notifies the other Party of such termination, (iii) if the Executive’s employment is terminated by reason of
death, the date of death of the Executive, or (iv) if the Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company due to Disability, the Disability Effective Date. 
 (g) Resignation from All Positions. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, upon the termination of the Executive’s employment for any reason, unless otherwise requested by the Company, the
Executive shall immediately resign as of the Date of Termination from all positions that he holds or has ever held with the Company and any other member of the Affiliated Group (and with any other entities with respect to which the Company has
requested the Executive to perform services), including, without limitation, all boards of directors of any member of the Affiliated Group. The Executive hereby agrees to execute any and all documentation to effectuate such resignations upon request
by the Company, but he shall be treated for all purposes as having so resigned upon termination of his employment, regardless of when or whether he executes any such documentation. 
 5. Obligations of the Company upon Termination. (a) Good Reason; Other Than for Cause. Subject to Section 6, if, during the
Employment Period, (1) the Company shall terminate the Executive’s employment other than for Cause, death or Disability or (2) the Executive shall terminate employment for Good Reason: 
 (i) the Company shall pay to the Executive in a lump sum in cash within 30 days (except as specifically provided in
Section 5(a)(i)(A)(3)) after the Date of Termination or, if later, as soon as practicable following the earliest date on which such payment would avoid imposition of penalties under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended (the “Code”), the aggregate of the following amounts: 
 A. the sum of (1) the Executive’s
accrued but unpaid Annual Base Salary and any accrued but unused vacation pay through the Date of Termination, (2) the Executive’s business expenses that are reimbursable pursuant to Section 3(b)(vii) but have not been reimbursed by
the Company as of the Date of Termination, (3) the Executive’s Annual Bonus for the fiscal year immediately 

  

 6 

 
preceding the fiscal year in which the Date of Termination occurs if such bonus has been determined but not paid as of the Date of Termination (at the time
such Annual Bonus would otherwise have been paid), and (4) the product of the Executive’s Target Bonus for the fiscal year in which the Date of Termination occurs multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in
such year through the Date of Termination and the denominator of which is 365 (collectively, the “Obligations”); and 
 B. the amount equal to the product of (x) two and (y) the sum of (I) the Executive’s Annual Base Salary and (II) the Target Bonus; and 
 (ii) for two years after the Executive’s Date of Termination, the Company shall continue medical and life insurance benefits to the
Executive (and, if applicable, to any dependents of the Executive who received such benefits under his coverage prior to the Date of Termination) at least equal to those that would have been provided to the Executive (and to any such dependent) in
accordance with the plans, programs, practices and policies of the Company if the Executive’s employment had not been terminated; provided, that the Executive continues to make all required contributions; and 
 (iii) to the extent not theretofore paid or provided, the Company shall timely pay or provide to the Executive any other amounts or
benefits required to be paid or provided or which the Executive is eligible to receive under any plan, program, policy or practice or contract or agreement (other than any severance plan, program, policy or practice or contract or agreement) of the
Company and its affiliates (such amounts and benefits, the “Other Benefits”) in accordance with the terms and normal procedures of each such plan, program, policy or practice, based on accrued benefits through the Date of
Termination. 
 (iv) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event the Company shall terminate the
Executive’s employment other than for Cause, death or Disability, or the Executive shall terminate employment for Good Reason, (provided that in no event will there be deemed to be Good Reason solely by reason of the Company becoming privately
held in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement or on account of the Executive ceasing to serve as an executive of a publicly held corporation), on or before the second anniversary of the Effective
Date, the Executive shall be entitled to all payments and benefits then due under the Company’s Senior Officer Change in Control Severance Plan to the extent more favorable to the Executive than that otherwise provided under this
Section 5(a) (in which case Executive will not be entitled to any payments or benefits under Section 5(a)). 
 Except with respect to payments and
benefits under Sections 5(a)(i)(A)(l) and 5(a)(i)(A)(2), all payments and benefits to be provided under this Section 5(a) shall be subject to the Executive’s execution and non-revocation of a release substantially in the form attached
hereto as Annex B. 
  

 7 

 (b) Cause; Other than for Good Reason. If the Executive’s employment shall be terminated for
Cause or the Executive terminates his employment without Good Reason during the Employment Period, this Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to the Executive other than the obligation to pay or provide to the Executive an amount
equal to the amount set forth in clauses (1), (2), and (except in the event of a termination by the Company for Cause) (3) of Section 5(a)(i)(A) above, and the timely payment or provision of the Other Benefits. 
 (c) Death. If the Executive’s employment is terminated by reason of the Executive’s death during the Employment Period, this Agreement
shall terminate without further obligations to the Executive’s legal representatives under this Agreement, other than the obligation to pay or provide to the Executive’s beneficiaries the Obligations and the timely payment or provision of
the Other Benefits. 
 (d) Disability. If the Executive’s employment is terminated by reason of the Executive’s Disability
during the Employment Period, this Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to the Executive, other than the obligation to pay or provide to the Executive the Obligations and the timely payment or provision of the Other Benefits,
including any applicable disability benefits. 
 6. Change in Control Benefits. If at any time following a Change in Control (as
defined below) which occurs after the second anniversary of the Effective Date and prior to the second anniversary of such Change in Control, the Executive’s employment is terminated other than for Cause, death or Disability or he resigns for
Good Reason, the Executive is entitled to receive the following benefits payable in a lump sum within ten days following the Executive’s termination of employment or, if later, as soon as practicable following the earliest date on which such
payment would avoid imposition of penalties under Section 409A of the Code: 
 (a) The Obligations; 
 (b) three times the greater of (i) the Executive’s highest Annual Base Salary during the three years prior to the Change in Control and
(ii) the Executive’s Annual Base Salary on the Date of Termination; 
 (c) the amount equal to three times the highest Annual
Bonus, including any bonus or portion thereof that has been deferred (and annualized for any fiscal year consisting of less than 12 months or during which the Executive was employed for less than 12 months), that the Executive received during the
five fiscal years prior to the Date of Termination; and 
 (d) health, medical, life and long-term disability benefits for three years
comparable to the Executive’s benefits immediately prior to the Change in Control, or if the Executive is unable to continue to participate in the Company’s health, medical, life and long-term disability plans, the Company will provided
the Executive comparable benefits on an after-tax basis. For purposes of eligibility for retiree medical benefits pursuant to such plans, the 

  

 8 

 
Executive will be considered to have remained employed until the earlier of three years after the Date of Termination or the last day any Company employee
may become eligible for such retiree medical benefits and to have retired on the last day of such period. The benefits will be no less favorable than as in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control. The Executive shall be eligible for COBRA
benefits at the end of the three-year period. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company amends its current Senior Officer Change in Control Severance
Plan or adopts a Change in Control severance plan for senior officers generally with more generous benefits than the benefits outlined above, the Executive will be entitled to those more generous benefits to the extent applicable in lieu of benefits
provided hereunder. 
 If the Executive is terminated by the Company (other than for Cause) within the nine-month period prior to a Change in
Control, but subsequent to such time as negotiations or discussions which ultimately lead to a Change in Control have commenced, then the Executive shall be entitled to receive the benefits listed in Sections 6(a) through (f) above. 

If the Executive becomes entitled to payments under this Section 6, he will not be entitled to any payments or benefits under Section 5.

 7. Definition of Change in Control. The term “Change in Control” as used in this Agreement shall have the same
meaning given to such term under the Interest Plan. 
 8. Change in Control. 
 (a) In the event of a Change in Control at a time when the common stock of the Company or any of its affiliates is not readily tradeable on an established
securities market or otherwise, within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(5)(A)(ii) of the Code, the parties shall use their best efforts to satisfy the “shareholder approval requirements” of that section in a manner designed to
preserve the full economic benefit to the executive of any payments or benefits otherwise due to the Executive. 
 (b) In the event of a
Change in Control other than at a time when the common stock of the Company or any of its affiliates is not readily tradeable on an established securities market or otherwise, within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(5)(A)(ii) of the Code, and it
shall be determined that any payment or distribution by the Company to or for the benefit of the Executive, whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise (a “Payment”),
would constitute an “excess parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, the Company shall pay the Executive an additional amount (the “Gross-Up Payment”) such that the net amount retained
by the Executive after deduction of any Excise Tax (as defined below), and any federal, state and local income tax, employment tax and Excise Tax imposed upon the Gross-Up Payment, shall be equal to the Payment. The term “Excise
Tax” means the excise tax imposed under section 4999 of the Code, together with any interest or penalties imposed with respect to such excise tax. For purposes of 

  

 9 

 
determining the amount of the Gross-Up Payment, unless the Executive specifies that other rates apply, the Executive shall be deemed to pay federal income
tax and employment taxes at the highest marginal rate of federal income and employment taxation in the calendar year in which the Gross-Up Payment is to be made and state and local income taxes at the highest marginal rate of taxation in the state
and locality of the Executive’s residence on the Executive’s Date of Termination, net of the maximum reduction in federal income taxes that may be obtained from the deduction of such state and local taxes. 
 (c) All determinations to be made under this Section 8 shall be made by the Company’s independent public accounting firm immediately prior to
the Change in Control or another independent public accounting firm selected by the Company prior to the Change in Control (the “Accounting Firm”). The Accounting Firm shall provide its determinations and any supporting calculations
both to the Company and the Executive within 20 days after the Change in Control. Any such determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding upon the Company and the Executive. 
 (d) The Executive shall notify the Company in writing of any claim by the Internal Revenue Service that, if successful, would require the payment by the
Company of a Gross-Up Payment. Such notification shall be given as soon as practicable but no later than ten business days after the Executive knows of such claim and shall apprise the Company of the nature of such claim and the date on which such
claim is requested to be paid. The Executive shall not pay such claim prior to the expiration of the 30-day period following the date on which the Executive gives such notice to the Company (or such shorter period ending on the date that any payment
of taxes with respect to such claim is due). If the Company notifies the Executive in writing prior to the expiration of such period that it desires to contest such claim, the Executive shall: 
 (i) give the Company any information reasonably requested by the Company relating to such claim, 
 (ii) take such action in connection with contesting such claim as the Company shall reasonably request in writing from time to time,
including, without limitation, accepting legal representation with respect to such claim by an attorney reasonably selected by the Company, 
 (iii) cooperate with the Company in good faith in order to contest such claim effectively, and 
 (iv) permit the Company to participate in any proceedings relating to such claim; 
 provided, however, that the Company shall bear and pay directly
all costs and expenses (including additional interest and penalties) incurred in connection with such contest and shall indemnify and hold the Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, for any Excise Tax, income tax or employment tax, including
interest and penalties, with respect thereto, imposed as a result of 

  

 10 

 
such representation and payment of costs and expenses. Without limitation on the foregoing provisions of this Section 8, the Company shall control all
proceedings taken in connection with such contest and, at its sole option, may pursue or forego any and all administrative appeals, proceedings, hearing and conferences with the taxing authority in respect of such claim and may, at its sole option,
either direct the Executive to pay the tax claimed and sue for a refund or contest the claim in any permissible manner, and the Executive agrees to prosecute such contest to a termination before any administrative tribunal, in a court of initial
jurisdiction and in one or more appellate courts, as the Company shall determine. If the Company directs the Executive to pay such claim and sue for a refund, the Company shall advance the amount of such payment to the Executive on an interest-free
basis and shall indemnify and hold the Executive harmless, on an after-tax basis, from any Excise Tax, income tax or employment tax, including interest or penalties with respect thereto, imposed with respect to such advance or with respect to any
imputed income with respect to such advance. Any extension of the statute of limitations relating to payment of taxes for the taxable year of the Executive with respect to which such contested amount is claimed to be due shall be limited solely to
such contested amount. The Company’s control of the contest shall be limited to issues with respect to which a Gross-Up Payment would be payable hereunder, and the Executive shall be entitled to settle or contest, as the case may be, any other
issue raised by the Internal Revenue Service or any other taxing authority. 
 (e) If, after the receipt by the Executive of an amount
advanced by the Company pursuant to this Section, the Executive becomes entitled to receive any refund with respect to such claim, the Executive shall (subject to the Company’s complying with the requirements of subsection (c)) promptly
pay to the Company the amount of such refund, together with any interest paid or credited thereon after taxes applicable thereto. If, after the receipt by the Executive of an amount advanced by the Company pursuant to this Section 8, a
determination is made that the Executive shall not be entitled to any refund with respect to such claim and the Company does not notify the Executive in writing of its intent to contest such denial of refund prior to the expiration of 30 days after
such determination, then such advance shall be forgiven and shall not be required to be repaid and the amount of such advance shall offset, to the extent thereof, the amount of Gross-Up Payment required to be paid. 
 (f) All of the fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm in performing the determinations referred to in subsections (b), (c) and (d) above
shall be borne solely by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Accounting Firm from any and all claims, damages and expenses resulting from or relating to its determinations pursuant to subsections (b), (c) and
(d) above, except for claims, damages or expenses resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Accounting Firm. 
 (g) The Company shall pay the Gross-Up Payment as and when the related Excise Tax is incurred. The Gross-Up Payment shall be paid in accordance with section 409A of the Code, to the extent applicable. If required in order to comply with
section 409A of the Code, (i) the Gross-Up Payment attributable to payments other than severance compensation and benefits described in Section 5 or 6 shall be paid in a lump sum payment upon the closing of the Change in Control and
(ii) the Gross-Up Payment attributable to severance compensation and benefits shall be paid in a lump sum payment on the first day on which severance compensation 

  

 11 

 
is paid pursuant to Section 5 or 6. If the amount of a Gross-Up Payment cannot be fully determined by the date on which the applicable portion of the
Payment becomes subject to the Excise Tax (“Payment Date”), the Company shall pay to the Executive by the Payment Date an estimate of such Gross-Up Payment, as determined by the Accounting Firm, and the Company shall pay to the
Executive the remainder of such Gross-Up Payment (if any) as soon as the amount can be determined, but in no event later than 20 days after the payment date. 
 9. Full Settlement. In no event shall the Executive be obligated to seek other employment or take any other action by way of mitigation of the amounts payable to the Executive under any of the provisions of
this Agreement and such amounts shall not be reduced as a result of a mitigation duty whether or not the Executive obtains other employment. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Company shall pay directly to the Executive all reasonable
legal fees and expenses reasonably incurred by the Executive in connection with the negotiation and preparation of this Agreement, and the Company shall reimburse the Executive for all legal costs and expenses reasonably incurred (and documented in
invoices) in connection with any dispute under this Agreement, so long as the Executive substantially prevails in such dispute. In addition, the Company shall indemnify and hold the Executive, harmless on an after-tax basis, for any income tax, and
all other applicable taxes imposed as a result of the Company’s payment of any legal fees contemplated herein in connection with the preparation and negotiation of this Agreement. 
 10. Covenants. 
 (a) Confidential
Information. The Executive shall hold in a fiduciary capacity for the benefit of the Affiliated Group, all secret or confidential information, knowledge or data relating to the Affiliated Group and its businesses (including, without limitation,
any proprietary and not publicly available information concerning any processes, methods, trade secrets, research or secret data, costs, names of users or purchasers of their respective products or services, business methods, operating procedures or
programs or methods of promotion and sale) that the Executive obtains during the Executive’s employment by the Affiliated Group that is not public knowledge (other than as a result of the Executive’s violation of this Section 10(a))
(“Confidential Information”). The Executive shall not communicate, divulge or disseminate Confidential Information at any time during or after the Executive’s employment with the Affiliated Group, except with the prior written
consent of the Company, or as otherwise required by law or legal process or as such disclosure or use may be required in the course of the Executive performing his duties and responsibilities for the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing
provisions, if the Executive is required to disclose any such confidential or proprietary information pursuant to applicable law or a subpoena or court order, the Executive shall promptly notify the Company in writing of any such requirement so that
the Company or the appropriate member of the Affiliated Group may seek an appropriate protective order or other appropriate remedy or waive compliance with the provisions hereof. The Executive shall reasonably cooperate with the Company or the
appropriate member of the Affiliated Group to obtain such a protective order or other remedy. If such order or other remedy is not obtained prior to the time the Executive is required to make the disclosure, or the Company waives compliance with the
provisions hereof, the Executive shall disclose only that portion of the confidential or proprietary information which he is advised by counsel in writing (either his or 

  

 12 

 
the Company’s) that he is legally required to disclose. Upon his termination of employment with the Affiliated Group for any reason, the Executive shall
promptly return to the Company all records, files, memoranda, correspondence, notebooks, notes, reports, customer lists, drawings, plans, documents, and other documents and the like relating to the business of the Affiliated Group or containing any
trade secrets relating to the Affiliated Group or that the Executive uses, prepares or comes into contact with during the course of the Executive’s employment with the Affiliated Group, and all keys, credit cards and passes, and such materials
shall remain the sole property of the Company and/or the Affiliated Group, as applicable. The Executive agrees to execute any standard-form confidentiality agreements that apply to senior executives (including, without limitation, the Freescale
Assignment and Confidentiality Agreement, and further agrees to honor such policies and agreements pursuant to their terms during and following his employment with the Affiliated Group. The Executive agrees to represent in writing to the Company
upon termination of employment that he has complied with the foregoing provisions of this Section 10(a). 
 (b) Work Product and
Inventions. The Affiliated Group and/or its nominees or assigns shall own all right, title, and interest in and to any and all inventions, ideas, trade secrets, technology, devices, discoveries, improvements, processes, developments, designs,
know how, show-how, data, computer programs, algorithms, formulae, works of authorship, works modifications, trademarks, trade names, documentation, techniques, designs, methods, trade secrets, technical specifications, technical data, concepts,
expressions, patents, patent rights, copyrights, moral rights, and all other intellectual property rights or other developments whatsoever (collectively, “Developments”), whether or not patentable, reduced to practice or registrable
under patent, copyright, trademark or other intellectual property law anywhere in the world, made, authored, discovered, reduced to practice, conceived, created, developed or otherwise obtained by the Executive (alone or jointly with others) during
the Executive’s employment with the Affiliated Group, and arising from or relating to such employment or the business of the Company or other member of the Affiliated Group (whether during business hours or otherwise, and whether on the
premises of using the facilities or materials of the Affiliated Group or otherwise). The Executive shall promptly and fully disclose to the Affiliated Group and to no one else all Developments, and hereby assigns to the Affiliated Group without
further compensation all right, title and interest the Executive has or may have in any Developments, and all patents, copyrights, or other intellectual property rights relating thereto, and agrees that the Executive has not acquired and shall not
acquire any rights during the course of his employment with the Affiliated Group or thereafter with respect to any Developments. 
 (c) No
Competition—Solicitation of Business. If the Executive is terminated for Cause or voluntarily terminates his employment other than for Good Reason during the Restricted Period (the “Restricted Period” shall mean the period
from the Effective Date through the second anniversary of the Executive’s termination of employment with the Company), the Executive shall not, either directly or indirectly, compete with the business of the Company by (i) becoming an
officer, agent, employee, partner or director of any other corporation, partnership or other entity, or otherwise render services to or assist or hold an interest (except as a less than 3-percent shareholder of a publicly traded corporation or as a
less than 5-percent shareholder of a corporation that is not publicly traded) in any Competitive Business (as defined below), or (ii) soliciting, servicing, or accepting the business of (A) any active customer of the 

  

 13 

 
Company, or (B) any person or entity who is or was at any time during the previous twelve months a customer of the Company. “Competitive
Business” shall mean any person or entity (including any joint venture, partnership, firm, corporation, or limited liability company) whose primary business is the design, manufacture or sale of integrated circuits/semiconductors,
microcontrollers for the wireless products and services industry (including but not limited to wireless devices and infrastructure), similar to products that are designed, manufactured or sold by WMSG as of the Date of Termination. Competitive
Business does not include a “Startup Company.” Startup Company means any person or entity that has functioned as a business for three years or less and has less than $1 billion dollars in annual revenues. For the avoidance of doubt,
the restrictions described in subsection (ii) above do not apply to a Startup Company. Executive agrees that during the Restricted Period he will seek the Company’s prior written consent that any proposed employment or other engagement
does not violate the non-competition provisions of this Agreement. Company agrees that it will not unreasonably delay or withhold consent. If the Parties are unable to reach agreement within 10 days after Company’s receipt of Executive’s
written request for consent, Executive may proceed to refer the matter to a qualified, independent neutral expert experienced in the industry, (the “Neutral Expert”), by providing written notice to Company. Within five days after
Company receives Executive’s written notice, the Parties will choose a mutually acceptable Neutral Expert. No Party will unreasonably withhold consent to the selection of the Neutral Expert. Within seven days after the Neutral Expert is
selected, or as soon thereafter as the Neutral Expert is able to meet with the Parties, the Parties will meet with the Neutral Expert to present their positions, in a manner to be determined by the Neutral Expert. Based exclusively on the evidence
presented by the Parties at that meeting, the Neutral Expert will determine whether Executive’s proposed employment or other engagement violates the non-competition provisions of this Agreement. The decision of the Neutral Expert will be final,
binding, and non-appealable. 
 (d) Assistance. The Executive agrees that during and after his employment by the Affiliated Group,
upon request by the Company, the Executive will assist the Affiliated Group in the defense of any claims, or potential claims that may be made or threatened to be made against any member of the Affiliated Group in any action, suit or proceeding,
whether civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or otherwise (a “Proceeding”), and will assist the Affiliated Group in the prosecution of any claims that may be made by any member of the Affiliated Group in any Proceeding, to
the extent that such claims may relate to the Executive’s employment or the period of the Executive’s employment by the Affiliated Group. The Executive agrees, unless precluded by law, to promptly inform the Company if the Executive is
asked to participate (or otherwise become involved) in any Proceeding involving such claims or potential claims. The Executive also agrees, unless precluded by law, to promptly inform the Company if the Executive is asked to assist in any
investigation (whether governmental or otherwise) of any member of the Affiliated Group (or their actions), regardless of whether a lawsuit has then been filed against any member of the Affiliated Group with respect to such investigation. The
Company agrees to reimburse the Executive for all of the Executive’s reasonable out-of-pocket expenses associated with such assistance, including travel expenses and any attorneys’ fees and shall pay a reasonable per diem fee for the
Executive’s service. In addition, the Executive agrees to provide such services as are reasonably requested by the Company to assist any successor to the Executive in the transition of duties and responsibilities to such successor. Any services
or assistance contemplated in this Section 10 (d) shall be at mutually agreed to and convenient times and shall not interfere with Executive’s ability to substantially perform his duties with his current employer. 
  

 14 

 (e) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 10 shall supersede
and replace the terms and conditions of any and all other agreements previously entered into with respect to the subject matter hereof and (unless the parties agree otherwise) any future agreements entered into with respect to subject matter hereof,
except with respect to the provisions of the Stock Option/Restricted Stock Unit Consideration Agreement between the Executive and the Company under the Company’s Omnibus Incentive Plan of 2005, which provisions shall remain in full force and
effect. 
 (f) Remedies. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that the terms of Section 10: (i) are reasonable in
geographic and temporal scope, (ii) are necessary to protect legitimate proprietary and business interests of the Affiliated Group in, inter alia, near permanent customer relationships and confidential information. The Executive further
acknowledges and agrees that (x) the Executive’s breach of the provisions of Section 10 will cause the Affiliated Group irreparable harm, which cannot be adequately compensated by money damages. The Executive consents and agrees that
the forfeiture provisions contained in the Interest Plan, the Award Agreement and the Investors Agreement, are reasonable remedies in the event the Participant commits any such breach and such forfeiture shall be the Affiliated Group’s sole
remedy with respect to such breach. If any of the provisions of Section 10 are determined to be wholly or partially unenforceable, the Executive hereby agrees that this Agreement or any provision hereof may be reformed so that it is enforceable
to the maximum extent permitted by law. If any of the provisions of this Section 10 are determined to be wholly or partially unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such determination shall not be a bar to or in any way diminish the Affiliated
Group’s right to enforce any such covenant in any other jurisdiction. 
 11. Successors. (a) This Agreement is personal to
the Executive and without the prior written consent of the Company shall not be assignable by the Executive other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the
Executive’s legal representatives. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Company and its successors and assigns. If the Company sells or otherwise divests only the business currently known as WMSG and the action
does not trigger benefits for the Executive under the Change in Control Plan (as also set forth above), the Company will offer Executive an alternate position within the Company at the same work location and at the same pay and benefits. If
Executive accepts the alternate position, he will continue employment with the Company under the terms of this Agreement with the exception of a change in his position and duties. If Executive does not accept the alternate position, he can terminate
his employment for Good Reason and the provisions and obligations of this Agreement relating to termination for Good Reason will apply. 
 (b) The Company shall cause any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all or a substantial portion of its business and/or assets to assume expressly and agree to
perform this Agreement immediately upon such succession in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be 

  

 15 

 
required to perform it if no such succession had taken place. As used in this Agreement, “Company” shall mean the Company as hereinbefore
defined and any successor to its business and/or assets as aforesaid which assumes and agrees to perform this Agreement by operation of law, or otherwise. 
 12. Miscellaneous. (a) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, without reference to principles of conflict of laws. The Parties hereto
irrevocably agree to submit to the jurisdiction and venue of the courts of the State of Texas, in any action or proceeding brought with respect to or in connection with this Agreement. The captions of this Agreement are not part of the provisions
hereof and shall have no force or effect. This Agreement may not be amended or modified otherwise than by a written agreement executed by the Parties hereto or their respective successors and legal representatives. 
 (b) All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be given by hand delivery to the other Party or by registered or
certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed as follows:

with any provision of this Agreement or the failure to assert any right the Executive or the Company may have hereunder, shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such provision or right or any other provision or right of this Agreement. 
 (f) From and after the Effective Date, this Agreement shall supersede any other employment agreement or understanding between the Parties with respect to
the subject matter hereof except as otherwise specifically set forth in this Agreement. 
 (g) The Company may not issue a press release or

legal counsel, in connection with any action, suit or proceeding to which the Executive may be made a party by reason of the Executive being or having been an officer, director, or employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates.

 (b) The Executive shall be covered during the entire term of this Agreement and thereafter for at least six (6) years by officer and
director liability insurance in amounts and on terms similar to that afforded to other executives and/or directors of the Company or its affiliates, which such insurance shall be paid by the Company. 
 14. Section 409A. If it is determined that any amount due the Executive under the terms of this Agreement has been structured in a manner
that would result in adverse tax treatment under section 409A of the Code, the parties agree to cooperate in taking all reasonable measures to restructure the arrangement to minimize or avoid such adverse tax treatment without materially impairing
Executive’s economic rights. 
  

 17 

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Executive has hereunto set the Executive’s hand and, pursuant to the
authorization from its Board of Directors, the Company has caused these presents to be executed in its name and on its behalf, all as of the day and year first above written.

 Freescale Holdings L.P. Award Agreement 
 FREESCALE HOLDINGS L.P. 
 FORM OF AWARD AGREEMENT 
 THIS
MANAGEMENT EQUITY AWARD AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made as of December 1, 2006 (the “Date of Grant”) by and between Freescale Holdings L.P., a Cayman Islands limited partnership (the
“Partnership”) and _______________ (the “Participant”). 
 R E C I T A L S: 
 WHEREAS, the Partnership has adopted the Freescale Holdings L.P. 2006 Interest Plan (the “Plan”), a copy of which is attached hereto as
Exhibit B. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meanings as in the Plan; and 
 WHEREAS, in connection
with the Participant’s Employment by the Company, the Partnership intends concurrently herewith to (i) allow the Participant to become a party to the LP Agreement and (ii) subscribe for a number of Class B Interests set forth below
(the “Award”). Upon vesting in accordance with this Agreement, Unvested Interests shall automatically convert to Vested Interests for purposes of the LP Agreement and the Investors Agreement. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the mutual promises set forth in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties to this Agreement, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows: 
 1. Award of Interests. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and subject to the execution by the Participant of the LP Agreement and the Investors Agreement, the Partnership hereby allows the Participant
to become a party to the LP Agreement as a Limited Partner having                              Class B
Interests and awards such Interests to the Participant, and the Participant accepts such Interests from the Partnership. 
 2. Vesting
Schedule. 
 (a) General. Subject to the Participant’s continued Employment with the Company or as otherwise provided in
Section 3 below, the Award shall vest with respect to twenty-five percent (25%) of the Interests initially covered by the Award on each of the first, second, third and fourth anniversaries of the Date of Grant. 

 (b) Change of Control. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, in
the event of a Change of Control, all Unvested Interests shall become Vested Interests. 
 3. Termination of Employment. 

(a) General. If the Participant’s Employment is terminated for any reason, any Unvested Interests shall (after giving effect to the
provisions of Section 2(b) and this Section 3) terminate upon such termination of Employment. 
 (b) For Cause. The Award
(including any Vested Interests and Unvested Interests) shall terminate upon the Participant’s termination of Employment for Cause. 
 (c) Without Cause or for Good Reason. Upon the Participant’s termination of Employment by the Company without Cause or by the Participant for Good Reason, a number of Interests equal to the number of Interests subject to the
Award (if any) that would have become Vested Interests on the next anniversary of the Date of Grant if the Participant had remained employed until such date (the “Subsequent Tranche”), multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of
which equals the number of days elapsed from the vesting date immediately preceding termination of the Participant’s Employment through the Participant’s termination of Employment and the denominator of which equals 365, shall become
Vested Interests, plus, if so determined in the sole discretion of the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, the Subsequent Tranche; subject in all circumstances to the maximum of the total number of Interests subject to the Award as of the date
of such termination of Employment. Any Interests that remain Unvested Interests after giving effect to the above provisions of this Section 3(c) shall terminate immediately effective as of the termination of the Participant’s Employment.

 (d) Death. Upon the Participant’s termination of Employment due to death, a number of Interests equal to the number of
Interests subject to the Award (if any) that would have vested on the Subsequent Tranche if the Participant had remained employed until such date, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which equals the number of days elapsed from the vesting
date immediately preceding termination of the Participant’s Employment through the Participant’s termination of Employment and the denominator of which equals 365, shall become Vested Interests, plus, two Subsequent Tranches shall become
Vested Interests; subject in all circumstances to the maximum of the total number of Interests subject to the Award as of the date of such termination of Employment. Any Interests that remain Unvested Interests after giving effect to the above
provisions of this Section 3(d) shall terminate immediately effective as of the termination of the Participant’s Employment. 
 (e)
Disability. Upon the Participant’s termination of Employment due to Disability, all Interests subject the Award shall become Vested Interests. 
 (f) Retirement. Upon the Participant’s termination of Employment due to Retirement and solely to the extent so determined by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, a number of Interests equal to the
Subsequent Tranche multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which equals the number of days elapsed from the vesting date immediately preceding termination of the Participant’s Employment through the Participant’s termination of 

  

 2 

 
Employment and the denominator of which equals 365, shall become Vested Interests; subject in all circumstances to the maximum of the total number of
Interests subject to the Award as of the date of such termination of Employment. Any Interests that remain Unvested Interests after giving effect to the above provisions of this Section 3(f) shall terminate immediately effective as of the
termination of the Participant’s Employment. 
 (g) By the Participant other than due to Disability or Good Reason. Upon the
Participant’s termination of Employment on account of a termination initiated by the Participant other than due to Disability or Good Reason, then any Interests that remain Unvested Interests shall terminate immediately effective as of the
termination of the Participant’s Employment. 
 (h) Forfeiture. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the
Participant breaches any Restrictive Covenants applicable to the Participant (including, without limitation, the Restrictive Covenants set forth in Exhibit A hereto) following termination of the Participant’s Employment by the Participant other
than due to Disability or Good Reason, in each case on or after the second anniversary of the Date of Grant, then any Interests which became Vested Interests during the twelve-month period immediately preceding the date of termination shall be
automatically forfeited. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Participant breaches any Restrictive Covenants applicable to the Participant (including, without limitation, the Restrictive Covenants set forth in Exhibit A hereto)
during the Severance Period (as defined below), then any Vested Interests then held by the Participant shall be automatically forfeited. For purposes of this Agreement “Severance Period” shall mean, in the event of termination of
the Participant’s Employment in circumstances entitling the Participant to severance under an applicable plan or policy or an individual agreement, and under which plan, policy or individual agreement the Participant elects to and actually
receives severance, the two-year period following the date of such termination. 
 4. Certain Covenants. The Participant hereby agrees
and covenants to perform all of his obligations set forth in Exhibit A hereto (which is incorporated by reference hereby) and acknowledges that the Participant’s obligations set forth in Exhibit A constitute a material inducement for the
Partnership’s grant of the Award to the Participant but, as to the Company’s remedy, subject only to the provisions set forth in subsection (f) of Exhibit A. 
 5. Restrictions, etc. The Participant’s rights hereunder and with respect to Vested Interests and Unvested Interests are subject to the
restrictions and other provisions contained in the Investors Agreement and the LP Agreement. 
 6. No Right to Continued Employment.
The granting of the Award evidenced hereby and this Agreement shall impose no obligation on the Company to continue the Employment of the Participant and shall not lessen or affect the Company’s right to terminate the Employment of such
Participant. 
 7. Notices. Any notice necessary under this Agreement shall be addressed to the Partnership in care of its Secretary
at the principal executive office of the Partnership and to the Participant at the address appearing in the personnel records of the Company for the Participant or to either party at such other address as either party hereto may hereafter designate

 Exhibit A – Restrictive Covenants 
  

	(a)	Confidential Information. The Participant shall hold in a fiduciary capacity for the benefit of the Company and its Affiliates (collectively, the “Affiliated
Group”), all secret or confidential information, knowledge or data relating to the Affiliated Group and its businesses (including, without limitation, any proprietary and not publicly available information concerning any processes,
methods, trade secrets, research or secret data, costs, names of users or purchasers of their respective products or services, business methods, operating procedures or programs or methods of promotion and sale) that the Participant obtains during
the Participant’s Employment that is not public knowledge (other than as a result of the Participant’s violation of this Section (a)) (“Confidential Information”). The Participant shall not communicate, divulge or

in the course of the Participant performing his duties and responsibilities with the Affiliated Group. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, if the Participant is required to disclose any such confidential or proprietary information pursuant to
applicable law or a subpoena or court order, the Participant shall promptly notify the Company in writing of any such requirement so that the Company or the appropriate member of the Affiliated Group may seek an appropriate protective order or other
appropriate remedy or waive compliance with the provisions hereof. The Participant shall reasonably cooperate with the Company or the appropriate member of the Affiliated Group to obtain such a protective order or other remedy. If such order or
other remedy is not obtained prior to the time the Participant is required to make the disclosure, or the Company waives compliance with the provisions hereof, the Participant shall disclose only that portion of the confidential or proprietary
information which he is advised by counsel in writing (either his or the Company’s) that he is legally required to so disclose. Upon his termination of Employment for any reason, the Participant shall promptly return to the Company all records,
files, memoranda, correspondence, notebooks, notes, reports, customer lists, drawings, plans, documents, and other documents and the like relating to the business of the Affiliated Group or containing any trade secrets relating to the Affiliated
Group or that the Participant uses, prepares or comes into contact with during the course of the Participant’s employment with the Affiliated Group, and all keys, credit cards and passes, and such materials shall remain the sole property of the

Affiliated Group or otherwise). The Participant shall promptly and fully disclose to the Affiliated Group and to no one else all Developments, and hereby assigns to the Affiliated Group without further compensation all right, title and interest the
Participant has or may have in any Developments, and all patents, copyrights, or other intellectual property rights relating thereto, and agrees that the Participant has not acquired and shall not acquire any rights during the course of his
employment with the Affiliated Group or thereafter with respect to any Developments. 

  

	(c)	Non-Recruitment of Affiliated Group Employees. The Participant shall not, at any time during the Nonsolicitation Restricted Period (as defined below), other than in the
ordinary exercise of his duties, without the prior written consent of the Affiliated Group, directly or indirectly, solicit, recruit, or employ (whether as an employee, officer, agent, consultant or independent contractor) any person who is or was
at any time during the previous 12 months, an employee, representative, officer or director of any member of the Affiliated Group. Further, during the Nonsolicitation Restricted Period, the Participant shall not take any action that could reasonably
be expected to have the effect of directly encouraging or inducing any person to cease their relationship with any member of the Affiliated Group for any reason. A general employment advertisement by an entity of which the Participant is a part will
not constitute solicitation or recruitment. The “Nonsolicitation Restricted Period” shall mean the period from the Date of Grant through the second anniversary of the Participant’s termination of Employment.

  

	(d)	 Non-Competition – Solicitation of Business. During the Noncompetition Restricted Period (as defined below), the Participant shall not, either directly
or indirectly, compete with the business of the Affiliated Group by (i) becoming an officer, agent, employee, partner or director of any other corporation, partnership or other entity, or otherwise render services to or assist or hold an
interest (except as a less than 3-percent shareholder of a publicly traded corporation or as a less than 5-percent shareholder of a corporation that is not publicly traded) in any Competitive Business (as defined below), or (ii) soliciting,
servicing, or accepting the business of (A) any active customer of any member of the Affiliated Group, or (B) any person or entity who is or was at any time during the previous twelve months a customer of any member of the Affiliated
Group, provided that such 

  

 2 

	 	 
business is competitive with any significant business of any member of the Affiliated Group. “Competitive Business” shall mean any
person or entity (including any joint venture, partnership, firm, corporation, or limited liability company) that conducts a business that is competitive with any significant business of the Affiliated Group as of the date of termination (or any
significant business that is being actively pursued as of the date of termination by the Affiliated Group). The “Noncompetition Restricted Period” shall mean the period from the Date of Grant through the second anniversary of the
date of termination of the Participant’s Employment. 

  

	(e)	Assistance. The Participant agrees that during and after his employment by the Affiliated Group, upon request by the Company, the Participant will assist the Affiliated Group
in the defense of any claims, or potential claims that may be made or threatened to be made against any member of the Affiliated Group in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or otherwise (a
“Proceeding”), and will assist the Affiliated Group in the prosecution of any claims that may be made by any member of the Affiliated Group in any Proceeding, to the extent that such claims may relate to the
Participant’s Employment or the period of the Participant’s Employment by the Affiliated Group. The Participant agrees, unless precluded by law, to promptly inform the Company if the Participant is asked to participate (or otherwise become
involved) in any Proceeding involving such claims or potential claims. The Participant also agrees, unless precluded by law, to promptly inform the Company if the Participant is asked to assist in any investigation (whether governmental or
otherwise) of any member of the Affiliated Group (or their actions), regardless of whether a lawsuit has then been filed against any member of the Affiliated Group with respect to such investigation. The Company agrees to reimburse the Participant
for all of the Participant’s reasonable out-of-pocket expenses associated with such assistance, including travel expenses and any attorneys’ fees and shall pay a reasonable per diem fee for the Participant’s service. In addition, the
Participant agrees to provide such services as are reasonably requested by the Company to assist any successor to the Participant in the transition of duties and responsibilities to such successor. Any services or assistance contemplated in this
Section (e) shall be at mutually agreed to and convenient times. 

  

	(f)	 Remedies. The Participant acknowledges and agrees that the terms of this Exhibit A: (i) are reasonable in geographic and temporal scope, (ii) are
necessary to protect legitimate proprietary and business interests of the Affiliated Group in, inter alia, near permanent customer relationships and confidential information. The Participant further acknowledges and agrees that the
Participant’s breach of the provisions of this Exhibit A will cause the Affiliated Group irreparable harm, which cannot be adequately compensated by money damages. The Participant consents and agrees that the forfeiture provisions contained in
the Plan, the Agreement and the Investors Agreement, are reasonable remedies in the event the Participant commits any such breach and such forfeiture and call option shall be the Affiliated Group’s sole remedy with respect to such breach. If
any of the 

  

 3 

	 	 
provisions of this Exhibit A are determined to be wholly or partially unenforceable, the Participant hereby agrees that Exhibit A or any provision hereof may
be reformed so that it is enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law. If any of the provisions of this Exhibit A are determined to be wholly or partially unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such determination shall not be a bar to or in any
way diminish the Affiliated Group’s right to enforce any such covenant in any other jurisdiction.

“Borrower” shall thereupon be deemed to be references to Freescale). 
 The Borrower has requested that simultaneously with the
consummation of the Merger, the Lenders extend credit to the Borrower in the form of (i) Term Loans in an initial aggregate Dollar Amount of $3,500,000,000, (ii) a Dollar Revolving Credit Facility in an initial aggregate Dollar Amount of
$550,000,000 and (iii) an Alternative Currency Revolving Credit Facility in an initial aggregate Dollar Amount of $200,000,000. The Dollar Revolving Credit Facility may include one or more Swing Line Loans and one or more Dollar Letters of

 The proceeds of the Term Loans and the Initial Revolving Borrowing (to the extent permitted in accordance with the definition of the term “Permitted Initial Revolving Borrowing Purposes”), together with the
proceeds of (i) Freescale’s cash on hand, (ii) the issuance of the High Yield Notes and (iii) the Equity Contribution, will be used to finance the repayment of all amounts outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement and
certain other existing Indebtedness of Freescale and pay the Merger Consideration and the Transaction Expenses. The proceeds of Revolving Credit Loans made after the Closing Date will be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes
of Parent and its Subsidiaries, including the financing of Permitted Acquisitions. Swing Line Loans and Letters of Credit will be used for general corporate purposes of Parent and its Subsidiaries.

Dollars or any conversion of Base Rate Loans to Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Dollars, (ii) three (3) Business Days prior to the requested date of any Borrowing or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in an
Alternative Currency (other than Dollars), and (iii) one (1) Business Day before the requested date of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans. Each telephonic notice by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.02(a) must be confirmed
promptly by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a written Committed Loan Notice, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower. Each Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be in
a principal amount of (x) $2,500,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof in the case of Term Loans or (y) £1,500,000 or a whole multiple of £500,000 in excess thereof in the case of Alternative Currency Loans
denominated in Sterling. Except as provided in Sections 2.03(c) and 2.04(c), each Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof. Each Committed Loan
Notice (whether telephonic or written) shall specify (i) whether the Borrower is requesting a Term Borrowing, a Dollar Revolving Credit Borrowing, an Alternative Currency Revolving Credit Borrowing, a conversion of Term Loans or Revolving
Credit Loans from one Type to the other, or a continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, (ii) the requested date of the Borrowing, conversion or continuation, as the case may be (which shall be a Business Day), (iii) the principal amount of
Loans to be borrowed, 

  

 -61- 

 
converted or continued, (iv) the currency in which the Loans to be borrowed are to be denominated, (v) the Type of Loans to be borrowed or to which
existing Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans are to be converted, and (vi) if applicable, the duration of the Interest Period with respect thereto. If with respect to Loans denominated in Dollars the Borrower fails to specify a Type of Loan in
a Committed Loan Notice or fails to give a timely notice requesting a conversion or continuation, then the applicable Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans shall be made as, or converted to, Base Rate Loans. Any such automatic conversion to Base Rate
Loans shall be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the applicable Eurocurrency Rate Loans. If the Borrower requests a Borrowing of, conversion to, or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans in any such
Committed Loan Notice, but fails to specify an Interest Period (or fails to give a timely notice requesting a continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency), it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of
one (1) month. If no currency is specified, the requested Borrowing shall be in Dollars. 
 (b) Following receipt of a Committed Loan
Notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the amount of its Pro Rata Share of the applicable Class of Loans, and if no timely notice of a conversion or continuation is provided by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent
shall notify each Lender of the details of any automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans or continuation described in Section 2.02(a). In the case of each Borrowing, each Appropriate Lender shall make the amount of its Loan available to the
Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office for the applicable currency not later than 1:00 p.m., in the case of any Loan denominated in Dollars, and not later than 1:00 p.m. (London time) in the case of any Loan
in an Alternative Currency (other than Dollars), in each case on the Business Day specified in the applicable Committed Loan Notice. Upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (and, if such Borrowing is the initial
Credit Extension, Section 4.01), the Administrative Agent shall make all funds so received available to the Borrower in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent either by (i) crediting the account of the Borrower on the books of
Citibank with the amount of such funds or (ii) wire transfer of such funds, in each case in accordance with instructions provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) the Administrative Agent by the Borrower; provided that if, on the date
the Committed Loan Notice with respect to such Borrowing is given by the Borrower, there are Swing Line Loans or L/C Borrowings outstanding, then the proceeds of such Borrowing shall be applied, first, to the payment in full of any such L/C
Borrowings, second, to the payment in full of any such Swing Line Loans, and third, to the Borrower as provided above. 
 (c) Except as
otherwise provided herein, a Eurocurrency Rate Loan may be continued or converted only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Rate Loan unless the Borrower pays the amount due, if any, under Section 3.05 in connection
therewith. During the existence of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders may require that no Loans may be converted to or continued as Eurocurrency Rate Loans. 
 (d) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period for Eurocurrency
Rate Loans upon determination of such interest rate. The determination of the Eurocurrency Rate by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. At any time that Base 

  

 -62- 

 
Rate Loans are outstanding, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders of any change in Citibank’s prime rate used in
determining the Base Rate promptly following the public announcement of such change. 
 (e) After giving effect to all Term Borrowings, all
Revolving Credit Borrowings, all conversions of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans from one Type to the other, and all continuations of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Loans as the same Type, there shall not be more than fifteen (15) Interest
Periods in effect. 
 (f) The failure of any Lender to make the Loan to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other
Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Loan on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Loan to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing.

 (g) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not
make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may, with the Borrower’s consent, assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date
of such Borrowing in accordance with paragraph (b) above, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If the Administrative Agent shall have so made
funds available, then, to the extent that such Lender shall not have made such portion available to the Administrative Agent, each of such Lender and the Borrower severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such
corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at (i) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate
applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank
compensation. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 2.02(g) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such Lender’s portion of such Borrowing
is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three Business Days after such the date of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon accruing from the date on
which the Administrative Agent made the funds available to the Borrower at the rate per annum applicable to ABR Loans under the relevant Facility, on demand, from the Borrower. If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such
corresponding amount, such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement, and the Borrower’s obligation to repay the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount pursuant to this
Section 2.02(g) shall cease. 
 SECTION 2.03. Letters of Credit. 
 (a) The Letter of Credit Commitments. 
 (i) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (A)(1) each Dollar L/C Issuer agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Dollar Revolving Credit Lenders 

  

 -63- 

 
set forth in this Section 2.03, (x) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date until the Letter of Credit
Expiration Date applicable to Dollar Letters of Credit issued under the Dollar Revolving Credit Facility, to issue Dollar Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrower (provided, that any Dollar Letter of Credit may be for the benefit of
any Subsidiary of the Borrower) and to amend or renew Dollar Letters of Credit previously issued by it, in accordance with Section 2.03(b), and (y) to honor drafts under the Dollar Letters of Credit and (2) the Dollar Revolving Credit
Lenders severally agree to participate in Dollar Letters of Credit issued pursuant to this Section 2.03 and (B)(1) each Alternative Currency L/C Issuer agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Alternative Currency Revolving Credit
Lenders set forth in this Section 2.03, (x) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date until the Letter of Credit Expiration Date applicable to Alternative Currency Letters of Credit issued under the
Alternative Currency Revolving Credit Facility, to issue Alternative Currency Letters of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency for the account of the Borrower (provided, that any Alternative Currency Letter of Credit may be for the
benefit of any Subsidiary of the Borrower) and to amend or renew Alternative Currency Letters of Credit previously issued by it, in accordance with Section 2.03(b), and (y) to honor drafts under the Alternative Currency Letters of Credit
and (2) the Alternative Currency Revolving Credit Lenders severally agree to participate in Alternative Currency Letters of Credit issued pursuant to this Section 2.03; provided that no L/C Issuer shall be obligated to make any L/C
Credit Extension with respect to any Letter of Credit, and no Lender shall be obligated to participate in any Letter of Credit if as of the date of such L/C Credit Extension, (x) the Dollar Revolving Credit Exposure of any Lender would exceed
such Lender’s Dollar Revolving Credit Commitment, (y) the Alternative Currency Revolving Credit Exposure of any Lender would exceed such Lender’s Alternative Currency Revolving Credit Commitment or (z) the Outstanding Amount of
the Dollar Revolving L/C Obligations would exceed the Dollar Revolving Letter of Credit Sublimit. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower’s ability to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully
revolving, and accordingly the Borrower may, during the foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit that have expired or that have been drawn upon and reimbursed. 
 (ii) An L/C Issuer shall be under no obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if: 
 (A) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such L/C
Issuer from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Law applicable to such L/C Issuer or any directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such L/C Issuer shall prohibit, or direct that such
L/C Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such L/C Issuer with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such
L/C Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon such L/C Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date (for which such L/C Issuer is not
otherwise compensated hereunder); 
  

 -64- 

 (B) subject to Section 2.03(b)(iii), the expiry date of such requested Letter of
Credit (other than the Letters of Credit listed on Schedule 2.03(a)(ii)(B)) would occur more than twelve months after the date of issuance or last renewal, unless the Required Lenders have approved such expiry date; 
 (C) the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur after applicable Letter of Credit Expiration Date, unless all the
Dollar Revolving Credit Lenders have approved such expiry date; or 
 (D) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate
any Laws binding upon such L/C Issuer. 
 (iii) An L/C Issuer shall be under no obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if (A) such L/C
Issuer would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (B) the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to such Letter of Credit. 

(b) Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit; Auto-Renewal Letters of Credit. 
 (i) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of the Borrower delivered to an L/C Issuer (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent) in the form of a Letter of Credit Application, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower. Such Letter of Credit Application must be received by the relevant L/C Issuer and the Administrative
Agent not later than 12:00 p.m. at least two (2) Business Days prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be; or, in each case, such later date and time as the relevant L/C Issuer may agree in a particular
instance in its sole discretion. In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the relevant L/C Issuer: (a) the proposed
issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (b) the amount thereof; (c) the expiry date thereof; (d) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (e) the documents to be presented by such
beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (f) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (g) the currency in which the request Letter of Credit will be denominated; and
(h) such other matters as the relevant L/C Issuer may reasonably request. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail reasonably satisfactory
to the relevant L/C Issuer (1) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (2) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (3) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (4) such other matters as the relevant
L/C Issuer may reasonably request. 
 (ii) Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the relevant L/C Issuer will confirm
with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application from the Borrower and, if not, such L/C Issuer will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy
thereof. Upon receipt by the relevant L/C Issuer of confirmation from the Administrative Agent that the 

  

 -65- 

 
requested issuance or amendment is permitted in accordance with the terms hereof, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, such L/C Issuer shall, on
the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the Borrower or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be. Immediately upon the issuance of (y) each Dollar Letter of Credit, each Dollar Revolving Credit Lender
shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, acquire from the relevant L/C Issuer a risk participation in such Dollar Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Dollar Revolving Credit Lender’s Pro
Rata Share times the amount of such Dollar Letter of Credit and (z) each Alternative Currency Letter of Credit, each Alternative Currency Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, acquire
from the relevant L/C Issuer a risk participation in such Alternative Currency Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Alternative Currency Revolving Credit Lender’s Pro Rata Share times the amount of such Alternative
Currency Letter of Credit. 
 (iii) If the Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the relevant L/C Issuer shall
agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic renewal provisions (each, an “Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit must permit the relevant L/C Issuer to prevent any such
renewal at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Nonrenewal Notice Date”) in each such
twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the relevant L/C Issuer, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the relevant L/C Issuer for any such renewal.
Once an Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit has been issued, the applicable Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the relevant L/C Issuer to permit the renewal of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later
than the applicable Letter of Credit Expiration Date; provided that the relevant L/C Issuer shall not permit any such renewal if (A) the relevant L/C Issuer has determined that it would have no obligation at such time to issue such
Letter of Credit in its renewed form under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of Section 2.03(a)(ii) or otherwise), or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is five
(5) Business Days before the Nonrenewal Notice Date from the Administrative Agent or any Revolving Credit Lender, as applicable, or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.02 is not then satisfied.

 (iv) Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto
or to the beneficiary thereof, the relevant L/C Issuer will also deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment. 
 (c) Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations. 
 (i) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the relevant L/C Issuer shall notify promptly the Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof. On
the Business Day on which the Borrower shall have received notice of any payment by an L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit (or, if the Borrower shall have received such notice later than 10:00 a.m. on any Business Day, on the immediately following
Business Day) (each such date, an “Honor Date”), the Borrower shall reimburse such 

  

 -66- 

 
L/C Issuer through the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing. If the Borrower fails to so reimburse such L/C Issuer by such
time, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Appropriate Lender of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (expressed in Dollars in the Dollar Amount thereof in the case of an Alternative Currency) (the
“Unreimbursed Amount”), and the amount of such Appropriate Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof. In such event, (y) in the case of an Unreimbursed Amount under a Dollar Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall be deemed to have
requested a Dollar Revolving Credit Borrowing of Base Rate Loans and (z) in the case of an Unreimbursed Amount under an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested an Alternative Currency Revolving
Credit Borrowing of Eurocurrency Rate Loans (or Base Rate Loans in the case of an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit denominated in Dollars), in each case to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, without
regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.02 for the principal amount of Eurocurrency Rate Loans or Base Rate Loans, but subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Appropriate
Lenders and Revolving Credit Lenders, and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (other than the delivery of a Committed Loan Notice). Any notice given by an L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this
Section 2.03(c)(i) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice. 
 (ii) Each Dollar Revolving Credit Lender (including any such Lender acting as an L/C Issuer) shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i)
make funds available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant Dollar L/C Issuer at the Administrative Agent’s Office for payments in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of any Unreimbursed Amount in respect of a Dollar
Letter of Credit not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of Section 2.03(c)(iii), each Dollar Revolving Credit Lender that so makes funds available
shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Loan to the Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the relevant Dollar L/C Issuer. Each Alternative Currency Revolving Credit Lender (including any such Lender
acting as an L/C Issuer) shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) make funds available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant Alternative Currency L/C Issuer at the Administrative Agent’s Office for
payments in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of any Unreimbursed Amount in respect of an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject
to the provisions of Section 2.03(c)(iii), each Alternative Currency Revolving Credit Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Loan to the Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the
funds so received to the relevant Alternative Currency L/C Issuer. 
 (iii) With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount in respect of a Dollar
Letter of Credit that is not fully refinanced by a Dollar Revolving Credit Borrowing of Base Rate Loans because the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, the Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred
from the relevant Dollar L/C Issuer a Dollar L/C Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced, which Dollar L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear 

  

 -67- 

 
interest at the Default Rate. In such event, each Dollar Revolving Credit Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant
Dollar L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such Dollar L/C Borrowing and shall constitute a Dollar L/C Advance from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation
under this Section 2.03. With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount in respect of an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit that is not fully refinanced by an Alternative Currency Revolving Credit Borrowing of Eurocurrency Rate Loans (or Base Rate
Loans in the case of an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit denominated in Dollars) because the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, the Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the relevant
Alternative Currency L/C Issuer an Alternative Currency L/C Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced, which Alternative Currency L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall
bear interest at the Default Rate. In such event, each Alternative Currency Revolving Credit Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant Alternative Currency L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(ii) shall
be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such Alternative Currency L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an Alternative Currency L/C Advance from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.03.

 (iv) Until each Revolving Credit Lender funds its Revolving Credit Loan or L/C Advance pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) to reimburse
the relevant L/C Issuer for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such amount shall be solely for the account of the relevant L/C Issuer. 
 (v) Each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans or L/C Advances to reimburse an L/C Issuer for amounts drawn under
Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section 2.03(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may
have against the relevant L/C Issuer, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default; or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the
foregoing; provided that each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (other than delivery by the Borrower of a
Committed Loan Notice). No such making of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the relevant L/C Issuer for the amount of any payment made by such L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit, together
with interest as provided herein. 
 (vi) If any Revolving Credit Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account
of the relevant L/C Issuer any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(c) by the time specified in Section 2.03(c)(ii), such L/C Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such
Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to such L/C Issuer at a rate per annum
equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. A certificate of the relevant L/C Issuer submitted to any Revolving Credit Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this
Section 2.03(c)(vi) shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
  

 -68- 

 (vii) If, at any time after an L/C Issuer has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received
from any Revolving Credit Lender such Lender’s L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with this Section 2.03(c), the Administrative Agent receives for the account of such L/C Issuer any payment in respect of the related
Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will distribute to such Lender its Pro Rata Share
thereof (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s L/C Advance was outstanding) in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent. 
 (viii) If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of an L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) is required to be
returned under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.06 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such L/C Issuer in its discretion), each Revolving Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such L/C
Issuer its Pro Rata Share thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to
time in effect. 
 (d) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the relevant L/C Issuer for each drawing
under each Letter of Credit issued by it and to repay each L/C Borrowing shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following:

 (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other agreement or instrument
relating thereto; 
 (ii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, defense or other right that any Loan Party or
Guarantor may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the relevant L/C Issuer or any other Person, whether in connection
with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction; 
 (iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or
insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit; 
 (iv) any payment by the relevant L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not
strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by the relevant L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, 

  

 -69- 

 
assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of
Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law; 
 (v) any exchange, release or
nonperfection of any Collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from the Guaranty or any other guarantee, for all or any of the Obligations any Loan Party or Guarantor in respect of such Letter of Credit; or

 (vi) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other
circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Loan Party or Guarantor; 
 provided that the foregoing
shall not excuse any L/C Issuer from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable Law) suffered by the
Borrower that are caused by such L/C Issuer’s gross negligence or willful misconduct when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. 
 (e) Role of L/C Issuers. Each Lender and the Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the relevant L/C Issuer shall
not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of
the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the L/C Issuers, any Agent-Related Person nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of any L/C Issuer shall be liable to any Lender for (i) any action taken
or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due
execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Letter of Credit Application. The Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with
respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Borrower’s pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under
any other agreement. None of the L/C Issuers, any Agent-Related Person, nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of any L/C Issuer, shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses
(i) through (iii) of this Section 2.03(e); provided that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower may have a claim against an L/C Issuer, and such L/C Issuer may be liable to the Borrower, to the
extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the Borrower which the Borrower proves were caused by such L/C Issuer’s willful misconduct or gross negligence or such L/C
Issuer’s willful or grossly negligent failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit. In
furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, each L/C Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and no L/C
Issuer shall be 

  

 -70- 

 
responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights
or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason. 
 (f) Cash
Collateral. (i) If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing and the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, as applicable, require the Borrower to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations pursuant to Section 8.02(c) or
(ii) an Event of Default set forth under Section 8.01(f) or (g) occurs and is continuing, then the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize the then Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations (in an amount equal to such Outstanding Amount
determined as of the date of such Event of Default), and shall do so not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on (x) in the case of the immediately preceding clause (i), (1) the Business Day that the Borrower receives notice thereof,
if such notice is received on such day prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time, or (2) if clause (1) above does not apply, the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives such notice and (y) in the case of
the immediately preceding clause (ii), the Business Day on which an Event of Default set forth under Section 8.01(f) or (g) occurs or, if such day is not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately succeeding such day. For purposes
hereof, “Cash Collateralize” means to pledge and deposit with or deliver to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the relevant L/C Issuer and the Revolving Credit Lenders, as collateral for the L/C Obligations, cash or
deposit account balances (“Cash Collateral”) pursuant to documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the relevant L/C Issuer (which documents are hereby consented to by the Revolving
Credit Lenders). Derivatives of such term have corresponding meanings. The Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the L/C Issuers and the Revolving Lenders, a security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and
all balances therein and all proceeds of the foregoing. Cash Collateral shall be maintained in blocked accounts at Citibank and may be invested in readily available Cash Equivalents. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that any funds
held as Cash Collateral are subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) or that the total amount of such funds is less than the aggregate Outstanding Amount of all L/C
Obligations, the Borrower will, forthwith upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay to the Administrative Agent, as additional funds to be deposited and held in the deposit accounts at Citibank as aforesaid, an amount equal to the excess of
(a) such aggregate Outstanding Amount over (b) the total amount of funds, if any, then held as Cash Collateral that the Administrative Agent reasonably determines to be free and clear of any such right and claim. Upon the drawing of any
Letter of Credit for which funds are on deposit as Cash Collateral, such funds shall be applied, to the extent permitted under applicable Law, to reimburse the relevant L/C Issuer. To the extent the amount of any Cash Collateral exceeds the then
Outstanding Amount of such L/C Obligations and so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the excess shall be refunded to the Borrower. If such Event of Default is cured or waived and no other Event of Default is then occurring
and continuing, the amount of any Cash Collateral shall be refunded to the Borrower. 
 (g) Letter of Credit Fees. 
 (i) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Dollar Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with its Pro
Rata Share a Letter of Credit fee for each Dollar Letter of Credit issued pursuant to this Agreement equal to the 

  

 -71- 

 
Applicable Rate times the daily maximum amount then available to be drawn under such Dollar Letter of Credit (whether or not such maximum amount is then in
effect under such Dollar Letter of Credit if such maximum amount increases periodically pursuant to the terms of such Dollar Letter of Credit). Such letter of credit fees shall be computed on a quarterly basis in arrears. Such letter of credit fees
shall be due and payable in Dollars on the first Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Dollar Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit
Expiration Date relating to Dollar Letters of Credit and thereafter on demand. If there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the daily maximum amount of each Dollar Letter of Credit shall be computed and multiplied by the
Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect. 
 (ii) The Borrower
shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Alternative Currency Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share a Letter of Credit fee for each Alternative Currency Letter of Credit issued pursuant to this Agreement
equal to the Applicable Rate times the daily maximum amount then available to be drawn under such Alternative Currency Letter of Credit (whether or not such maximum amount is then in effect under such Alternative Currency Letter of Credit if such
maximum amount increases periodically pursuant to the terms of such Alternative Currency Letter of Credit). Such letter of credit fees shall be computed on a quarterly basis in arrears. Such letter of credit fees shall be due and payable in Dollars
on the first Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Alternative Currency Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date relating to
Alternative Currency Letters of Credit and thereafter on demand. If there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the daily maximum amount of each Alternative Currency Letter of Credit shall be computed and multiplied by the
Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect. 
 (h) Fronting Fee and
Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to L/C Issuers. The Borrower shall pay directly to each L/C Issuer for its own account a fronting fee with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by it equal to 0.125% per annum of the daily
maximum amount then available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit (whether or not such maximum amount is then in effect under such Letter of Credit if such maximum amount increases periodically pursuant to the terms of such Letter of Credit).
Such fronting fees shall be computed on a quarterly basis in arrears. Such fronting fees shall be due and payable on the first Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after
the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand. In addition, the Borrower shall pay directly to each L/C Issuer for its own account the customary issuance, presentation, amendment and other
processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of such L/C Issuer relating to letters of credit as from time to time in effect. Such customary fees and standard costs and charges are due and payable within ten (10) Business Days of
demand and are nonrefundable. 
  

 -72- 

 (i) Conflict with Letter of Credit Application. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in
any Letter of Credit Application, in the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any Letter of Credit Application, the terms hereof shall control. 
 (j) Addition of an L/C Issuer. 
 (i) A Dollar Revolving Credit Lender may become an
additional Dollar L/C Issuer hereunder pursuant to a written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and such Dollar Revolving Credit Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Dollar Revolving Credit Lenders of any such
additional Dollar L/C Issuer. 
 (ii) An Alternative Currency Revolving Credit Lender may become an additional Alternative
Currency L/C Issuer hereunder pursuant to a written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and such Alternative Currency Revolving Credit Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Alternative Currency Revolving Credit Lenders
of any such additional Alternative Currency L/C Issuer. 
 SECTION 2.04. Swing Line Loans. 
 (a) The Swing Line. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swing Line Lender agrees to make loans in Dollars (each such loan, a
“Swing Line Loan”) to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day (other than the Closing Date) until the Maturity Date in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount of the Swing Line Sublimit,
notwithstanding the fact that such Swing Line Loans, when aggregated with the Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of Dollar Revolving Credit Loans and Dollar L/C Obligations of the Lender acting as Swing Line Lender, may exceed the amount of
such Lender’s Dollar Revolving Credit Commitment; provided that, after giving effect to any Swing Line Loan, the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Dollar Revolving Credit Loans of any Lender, plus such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of
the Outstanding Amount of all Dollar L/C Obligations, plus such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line Loans shall not exceed such Lender’s Dollar Revolving Credit Commitment then in effect; provided
further that, the Borrower shall not use the proceeds of any Swing Line Loan to refinance any outstanding Swing Line Loan. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower may borrow under this
Section 2.04, prepay under Section 2.05, and reborrow under this Section 2.04. Each Swing Line Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan. Swing Line Loans shall only be denominated in Dollars. Immediately upon the making of a Swing Line Loan,
each Dollar Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Swing Line Lender a risk participation in such Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s
Pro Rata Share times the amount of such Swing Line Loan. 
 (b) Borrowing Procedures. Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be made upon the
Borrower’s irrevocable notice to the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent, which may be given by telephone. Each such notice must be received by the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. on the
requested borrowing date, and shall specify (i) the amount to be borrowed, which shall be a minimum of $100,000 (and any amount 

  

 -73- 

 
in excess of $100,000 shall be an integral multiple of $25,000), and (ii) the requested borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day. Each such
telephonic notice must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent of a written Swing Line Loan Notice, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower. Promptly after receipt
by the Swing Line Lender of any telephonic Swing Line Loan Notice, the Swing Line Lender will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has also received such Swing Line Loan Notice and, if not,
the Swing Line Lender will notify the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) of the contents thereof. Unless the Swing Line Lender has received notice (by telephone or in writing) from the Administrative Agent (including at the request of
any Dollar Revolving Credit Lender) prior to 2:00 p.m. on the date of the proposed Swing Line Borrowing (A) directing the Swing Line Lender not to make such Swing Line Loan as a result of the limitations set forth in the first proviso to the
first sentence of Section 2.04(a), or (B) that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.02 is not then satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swing Line Lender will, not later than 3:00
p.m. on the borrowing date specified in such Swing Line Loan Notice, make the amount of its Swing Line Loan available to the Borrower. 
 (c)
Refinancing of Swing Line Loans. 
 (i) The Swing Line Lender at any time in its sole and absolute discretion may request, on behalf
of the Borrower (which hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swing Line Lender to so request on its behalf), that each Dollar Revolving Credit Lender make a Base Rate Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the amount of Swing
Line Loans then outstanding. Such request shall be made in writing (which written request shall be deemed to be a Committed Loan Notice for purposes hereof) and in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.02, without regard to the minimum
and multiples specified therein for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the unutilized portion of the aggregate Dollar Revolving Credit Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 4.02. The Swing Line Lender shall
furnish the Borrower with a copy of the applicable Committed Loan Notice promptly after delivering such notice to the Administrative Agent. Each Dollar Revolving Credit Lender shall make an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the amount specified
in such Committed Loan Notice available to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds for the account of the Swing Line Lender at the Administrative Agent’s Office for Dollar denominated payments not later than 1:00 p.m. on the day specified in
such Committed Loan Notice, whereupon, subject to Section 2.04(c)(ii), each Dollar Revolving Credit Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Loan to the Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent
shall remit the funds so received to the Swing Line Lender. 
 (ii) If for any reason any Swing Line Loan cannot be refinanced by such a
Dollar Revolving Credit Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.04(c)(i), the request for Base Rate Loans submitted by the Swing Line Lender as set forth herein shall be deemed to be a request by the Swing Line Lender that each of the Dollar
Revolving Credit Lenders fund its risk participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan and each Dollar Revolving Credit Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender pursuant to Section 2.04(c)(i)
shall be deemed payment in respect of such participation. 
  

 -74- 

 (iii) If any Dollar Revolving Credit Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the
account of the Swing Line Lender any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.04(c) by the time specified in Section 2.04(c)(i), the Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover
from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Swing Line Lender at a
rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. A certificate of the Swing Line Lender submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (iii) shall
be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 (iv) Each Dollar Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Dollar Revolving Credit Loans or
to purchase and fund risk participations in Swing Line Loans pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or
other right which such Lender may have against the Swing Line Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or
not similar to any of the foregoing; provided that each Dollar Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Dollar Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.02.
No such funding of risk participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to repay Swing Line Loans, together with interest as provided herein. 
 (d) Repayment of Participations. 
 (i) At any time after any Dollar Revolving Credit Lender has purchased and funded a risk participation in a Swing Line Loan, if the Swing Line Lender receives any payment on account of such Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender will
distribute to such Lender its Pro Rata Share of such payment (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s risk participation was funded) in the same funds as those received
by the Swing Line Lender. 
 (ii) If any payment received by the Swing Line Lender in respect of principal or interest on any Swing Line Loan
is required to be returned by the Swing Line Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.06 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Swing Line Lender in its discretion), each Dollar Revolving Credit Lender
shall pay to the Swing Line Lender its Pro Rata Share thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate.
The Administrative Agent will make such demand upon the request of the Swing Line Lender. 
 (e) Interest for Account of Swing Line
Lender. The Swing Line Lender shall be responsible for invoicing the Borrower for interest on the Swing Line Loans. Until each Dollar Revolving Credit Lender funds its Base Rate Loan or risk participation pursuant to this Section 2.04 to
refinance such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any Swing Line Loan, interest in respect of such Pro Rata Share shall be solely for the account of the Swing Line Lender. 
  

 -75- 

 (f) Payments Directly to Swing Line Lender. The Borrower shall make all payments of principal and
interest in respect of the Swing Line Loans directly to the Swing Line Lender. 
 SECTION 2.05. Prepayments. 
 (a) Optional. 
 (i) The Borrower may,
upon notice to the Administrative Agent, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay Term Loans and Revolving Credit Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (1) such notice must be received by the
Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m. (New York, New York time or London, England time in the case of Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency (other than Dollars)) (A) two (2) Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of
Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Dollars, (B) three (3) Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency (other than Dollars) and (C) on the date of prepayment of
Base Rate Loans; (2) any prepayment of Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of (x) $2,500,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof in the case of Term Loans or (y) £1,500,000 or a whole multiple of
£500,000 in excess thereof in the case of Alternative Currency Loans denominated in Sterling; and (3) any prepayment of Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof or, in
each case, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding (it being understood that Base Rate Loans shall be denominated in Dollars only). Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the Class(es) and
Type(s) of Loans to be prepaid. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Appropriate Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such prepayment. If such notice is given by a
Borrower, the Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Any prepayment of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued interest
thereon, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05. Each prepayment of principal of, and interest on, Alternative Currency Loans shall be made in the relevant Alternative Currency (even if Borrower is required to
convert currency to do so). Each prepayment of the Loans pursuant to this Section 2.05(a) shall be paid to the Appropriate Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares. 
 (ii) The Borrower may, upon notice to the Swing Line Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at any time or from time to time, voluntarily
prepay Swing Line Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (1) such notice must be received by the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. on the date of the prepayment, and
(2) any such prepayment shall be in a minimum principal amount of $100,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof or, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount
of such prepayment. If such notice is given by the Borrower, the Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. All Swing Line Loans shall be denominated in
Dollars only. 
  

 -76- 

 (iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Borrower may rescind any
notice of prepayment under Section 2.05(a)(i) or 2.05(a)(ii) if such prepayment would have resulted from a refinancing of all of the Facilities, which refinancing shall not be consummated or shall otherwise be delayed. 
 (b) Mandatory. 
 (i) Within five
(5) Business Days after financial statements have been delivered pursuant to Section 6.01(a) and the related Compliance Certificate has been delivered pursuant to Section 6.02(a), the Borrower shall cause to be prepaid an aggregate
Dollar Amount of Term Loans equal to (A) 50% (such percentage as it may be reduced as described below, the “ECF Percentage”) of Excess Cash Flow, if any, for the fiscal year covered by such financial statements (commencing with
the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007) minus (B) the sum of (i) all voluntary prepayments of Term Loans during such fiscal year and (ii) all voluntary prepayments of Revolving Credit Loans during such fiscal year to the
extent the Revolving Credit Commitments are permanently reduced by the amount of such payments, in the case of each of the immediately preceding clauses (i) and (ii), to the extent such prepayments are not funded with the proceeds of
Indebtedness; provided that (x) the ECF Percentage shall be 25% if the Total Leverage Ratio for the fiscal year covered by such financial statements was less than 4.0 and greater than or equal to 3.0 and (y) the ECF Percentage shall
be 0% if the Total Leverage Ratio for the fiscal year covered by such financial statements was less than 3.0. 
 (ii) (A) If
(x) Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary Disposes of any property or assets (other than any Disposition of any property or assets permitted by Section 7.05(a), (b), (c), (d) (to the extent constituting a Disposition by any Restricted
Subsidiary to a Loan Party), (e), (g), (h), (m) or (o)) or (y) any Casualty Event occurs, which in the aggregate results in the realization or receipt by Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary of Net Cash Proceeds, the Borrower shall cause
to be prepaid on or prior to the date which is ten (10) Business Days after the date of the realization or receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds an aggregate Dollar Amount of Term Loans equal to 100% of all Net Cash Proceeds realized or received;
provided that no such prepayment shall be required pursuant to this Section 2.05(b)(ii)(A) with respect to such portion of such Net Cash Proceeds that the Borrower shall have, on or prior to such date, given written notice to the
Administrative Agent of its intent to reinvest in accordance with Section 2.05(b)(ii)(B) (which notice may only be provided if no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing); 
 (B) With respect to any Net Cash Proceeds realized or received with respect to any Disposition (other than any Disposition specifically excluded from the
application of Section 2.05(b)(ii)(A)) or any Casualty Event, at the option of the Borrower, the Borrower may reinvest all or any portion of such Net Cash Proceeds in assets useful for its business (or with respect to Designated 300 Millimeter
Disposition Proceeds, in a Permitted 300 Millimeter Disposition Proceeds Purpose) within (x) fifteen (15) months following receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds (provided that such time limitations shall not apply to Designated 300
Millimeter Disposition Proceeds) or (y) if the Borrower enters into a legally binding commitment to reinvest such Net Cash Proceeds within fifteen (15) months following receipt thereof, within the later of (1) fifteen (15) months
following receipt thereof or (2) one hundred and eighty (180) days of the date of such legally binding commitment; provided that (i) so long as an Event of Default shall 

  

 -77- 

 
have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower shall not be permitted to make any such reinvestments (other than pursuant to a legally binding commitment that
the Borrower entered into at a time when no Event of Default is continuing) and (ii) if any Net Cash Proceeds are no longer intended to be or cannot be so reinvested at any time after delivery of a notice of reinvestment election, an amount
equal to any such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied within five (5) Business Days after the Borrower reasonably determines that such Net Cash Proceeds are no longer intended to be or cannot be so reinvested to the prepayment of the Term Loans
as set forth in this Section 2.05. 
 (iii) If Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary incurs or issues any Indebtedness not expressly
permitted to be incurred or issued pursuant to Section 7.03, the Borrower shall cause to be prepaid an aggregate Dollar Amount of Term Loans equal to 100% of all Net Cash Proceeds received therefrom on or prior to the date which is five
(5) Business Days after the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds. 
 (iv) If for any reason the aggregate Dollar Revolving Credit Exposures
at any time exceeds the aggregate Dollar Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect, the Borrower shall promptly prepay or cause to be promptly prepaid Dollar Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Line Loans and/or Cash Collateralize the Dollar L/C
Obligations in an aggregate amount equal to such excess; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to Cash Collateralize the Dollar L/C Obligations pursuant to this Section 2.05(b)(iv) unless after the prepayment in full of the
Dollar Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Line Loans such aggregate Outstanding Amount exceeds the aggregate Dollar Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect. If for any reason the aggregate Alternative Currency Revolving Credit Exposures at any
time exceeds the aggregate Alternative Currency Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect, the Borrower shall promptly prepay or cause to be promptly prepaid Alternative Currency Revolving Credit Loans and/or Cash Collateralize the Alternative
Currency L/C Obligations in an aggregate amount equal to such excess; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to Cash Collateralize the Alternative Currency L/C Obligations pursuant to this Section 2.05(b)(iv) unless after the
prepayment in full of the Alternative Currency Revolving Credit Loans such aggregate Outstanding Amount exceeds the aggregate Alternative Currency Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect. 
 (v) (X) Each prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.05(b) shall be applied in direct order of maturity to repayments thereof required
pursuant to Section 2.07(a); and (Y) each such prepayment shall be paid to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares subject to clause (vi) of this Section 2.05(b). 
 (vi) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of any mandatory prepayment of Term Loans required to be made pursuant to clauses
(i) through (iii) of this Section 2.05(b) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment. Each such notice shall specify the date of such prepayment and provide a reasonably detailed calculation of the
amount of such prepayment. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Appropriate Lender of the contents of the Borrower’s prepayment notice and of such Appropriate Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the prepayment. Each Appropriate Lender
may reject all or a portion of its Pro Rata Share of any mandatory prepayment (such declined amounts, the “Declined Proceeds”) of Term Loans required to be made pursuant to clauses (i) through (iii) of 

  

 -78- 

 
this Section 2.05(b) by providing written notice (each, a “Rejection Notice”) to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower no later
than 5:00 p.m. (New York time) one Business Day after the date of such Lender’s receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent regarding such prepayment. Each Rejection Notice from a given Lender shall specify the principal amount of the
mandatory repayment of Term Loans to be rejected by such Lender. If a Lender fails to deliver a Rejection Notice to the Administrative Agent within the time frame specified above or such Rejection Notice fails to specify the principal amount of the
Term Loans to be rejected, any such failure will be deemed an acceptance of the total amount of such mandatory repayment of Term Loans. Any Declined Proceeds shall be offered to the Appropriate Lenders not so declining such prepayment (with such
non-declining Lenders having the right to decline any prepayment with Declined Proceeds at the time and in the manner specified by the Administrative Agent). To the extent such non-declining Lenders elect to decline their Pro Rata Share of such
Declined Proceeds, any Declined Proceeds remaining thereafter shall be retained by the Borrower. 
 (c) Interest, Funding Losses, Etc.
All prepayments under this Section 2.05 shall be accompanied by all accrued interest thereon, together with, in the case of any such prepayment of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period therefor, any
amounts owing in respect of such Eurocurrency Rate Loan pursuant to Section 3.05. 
 Notwithstanding any of the other provisions of
Section 2.05, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, if any prepayment of Eurocurrency Rate Loans is required to be made under this Section 2.05, prior to the last day of the Interest Period therefor and less
than three months are remaining in such Interest Period, in lieu of making any payment pursuant to this Section 2.05 in respect of any such Eurocurrency Rate Loan prior to the last day of the Interest Period therefor, the Borrower may, in its
sole discretion, deposit the amount of any such prepayment otherwise required to be made thereunder into a Cash Collateral Account until the last day of such Interest Period, at which time the Administrative Agent shall be authorized (without any
further action by or notice to or from the Borrower or any other Loan Party) to apply such amount to the prepayment of such Loans in accordance with this Section 2.05. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the
Administrative Agent shall also be authorized (without any further action by or notice to or from the Borrower or any other Loan Party) to apply such amount to the prepayment of the outstanding Loans in accordance with the relevant provisions of
this Section 2.05. 
 SECTION 2.06. Termination or Reduction of Commitments. 
 (a) Optional. The Borrower may, upon written notice to the Administrative Agent, terminate the unused Commitments of any Class, or from time to
time permanently reduce the unused Commitments of any Class; provided that (i) any such notice shall be received by the Administrative Agent three (3) Business Days prior to the date of termination or reduction, (ii) any such
partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of $500,000 or any whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof and (iii) if, after giving effect to any reduction of the Commitments, the Dollar Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Swing Line
Sublimit exceeds the amount of the Dollar Revolving Credit Facility, such sublimit shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such excess. The amount of any such Commitment reduction shall not be applied 

  

 -79- 

 
to the Dollar Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit unless otherwise specified by the Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower
may rescind or postpone any notice of termination of the Commitments if such termination would have resulted from a refinancing of all of the Facilities, which refinancing shall not be consummated or otherwise shall be delayed. 
 (b) Mandatory. The Term Commitment of each Term Lender shall be automatically and permanently reduced to $0 upon the making of such Term
Lender’s Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.01(a). The Revolving Credit Commitments shall terminate on the applicable Maturity Date for each such Facility. 
 (c) Application of Commitment Reductions; Payment of Fees. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of any termination or reduction of unused portions of the Dollar Letter of Credit Sublimit,
or the Swing Line Sublimit or the unused Commitments of any Class under this Section 2.06. Upon any reduction of unused Commitments of any Class, the Commitment of each Lender of such Class shall be reduced by such Lender’s Pro Rata Share
of the amount by which such Commitments are reduced (other than the termination of the Commitment of any Lender as provided in Section 3.07). All commitment fees accrued until the effective date of any termination of the Dollar Revolving Credit
Commitments or Alternative Currency Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, shall be paid on the effective date of such termination. 
 SECTION 2.07. Repayment of Loans. 
 (a) Term Loans. The Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the
ratable account of the Term Lenders (i) on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the last Business Day of March 2007, an aggregate Dollar Amount equal to 0.25% of the aggregate Dollar Amount of
all Term Loans outstanding on the Closing Date (which payments shall be reduced as a result of the application of prepayments in accordance with the order of priority set forth in Section 2.05) and (ii) on the Maturity Date for the Term
Loans, the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans outstanding on such date. 
 (b) Revolving Credit Loans. The Borrower shall
repay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Appropriate Lenders on the Maturity Date for the Revolving Credit Facilities the aggregate principal amount of all of its Revolving Credit Loans outstanding on such date. 

(c) Swing Line Loans. The Borrower shall repay its Swing Line Loans on the earlier to occur of (i) the date five (5) Business Days
after such Loan is made and (ii) the Maturity Date for the Dollar Revolving Credit Facility. 
 (d) For the avoidance of doubt, all
Loans shall be repaid, whether pursuant to this Section 2.07 or otherwise, in the currency in which they were made. 
 SECTION 2.08.
Interest. 
 (a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.08(b), (i) each Eurocurrency Rate Loan shall bear interest on the
outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a 

  

 -80- 

 
rate per annum equal to the Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate plus (in the case of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan of any Lender
which is lent from a Lending Office in the United Kingdom or a Participating Member State) the Mandatory Cost; (ii) each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate
per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate and (iii) each Swing Line Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the
Applicable Rate for Dollar Revolving Credit Loans. For the avoidance of doubt, each Alternative Currency Loan (other than an Alternative Currency Loan denominated in Dollars) shall be a Eurocurrency Rate Loan. 
 (b) The Borrower shall pay interest on past due amounts hereunder at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws. Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand. 
 (c) Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be
specified herein. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law. 
 (d) Interest on each Loan shall be payable in the currency in which each Loan was made. 
 SECTION 2.09. Fees. In addition to certain fees described in Sections 2.03(g) and (h): 
 (a) Commitment Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each (i) Dollar Revolving Credit
Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, a commitment fee equal to the Applicable Rate with respect to commitment fees times the actual daily amount by which the aggregate Dollar Revolving Credit Commitment exceeds the sum of (A) the
Outstanding Amount of Dollar Revolving Credit Loans and (B) the Outstanding Amount of Dollar L/C Obligations; provided that any commitment fee accrued with respect to any of the Dollar Revolving Commitments of a Defaulting Lender during
the period prior to the time such Lender became a Defaulting Lender and unpaid at such time shall not be payable by the Borrower so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender except to the extent that such commitment fee shall otherwise have
been due and payable by the Borrower prior to such time; and provided further that no commitment fee shall accrue on any of the Dollar Revolving Credit Commitments of a Defaulting Lender so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender and
(ii) Alternative Currency Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, a commitment fee equal to the Applicable Rate with respect to commitment fees times the actual daily amount by which the aggregate Alternative Currency
Revolving Credit Commitment exceeds the sum of (A) the Outstanding Amount of Alternative Currency Revolving Credit Loans and (B) the Outstanding Amount of Alternative Currency L/C Obligations; provided that any commitment fee
accrued with 

  

 -81- 

 
respect to any of the Alternative Currency Revolving Commitments of a Defaulting Lender during the period prior to the time such Lender became a Defaulting
Lender and unpaid at such time shall not be payable by the Borrower so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender except to the extent that such commitment fee shall otherwise have been due and payable by the Borrower prior to such time; and
provided further that no commitment fee shall accrue on any of the Alternative Currency Revolving Credit Commitments of a Defaulting Lender so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender. The commitment fees shall accrue at all times
from the Closing Date until the Maturity Date for the Revolving Credit Facilities, including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Article 4 is not met, and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day
of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the Maturity Date for the Revolving Credit Facilities. The commitment fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there
is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect. 
 (b) Other Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Agents such fees as shall have been separately agreed upon in writing in the amounts
and at the times so specified. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever (except as expressly agreed between the Borrower and the applicable Agent). 
 SECTION 2.10. Computation of Interest and Fees. All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans when the Base Rate is determined by
Citibank’s “prime rate” and for Alternative Currency Loans denominated in Sterling shall be made on the basis of a year of three hundred and sixty-five (365) days and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and
interest shall be made on the basis of a three hundred and sixty (360) day year and actual days elapsed. Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the
day on which the Loan or such portion is paid; provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.12(a), bear interest for one (1) day. Each determination by the Administrative
Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. 
 SECTION 2.11.
Evidence of Indebtedness. 
 (a) The Credit Extensions made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records
maintained by such Lender and evidenced by one or more entries in the Register maintained by the Administrative Agent, acting solely for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 5f.103-1(c), as agent for the Borrower, in each case in the
ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be prima facie evidence absent manifest error of the amount of the Credit Extensions made by the Lenders to the Borrower and the
interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any
conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the 

  

 -82- 

 
Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall
execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a Note payable to such Lender, which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse
thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto. 
 (b) In addition to the
accounts and records referred to in Section 2.11(a), each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records and, in the case of the Administrative Agent, entries in the Register,
evidencing the purchases and sales by such Lender of participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any
Lender in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. 
 (c) Entries made in good faith by the Administrative Agent in the Register pursuant to Sections 2.11(a) and (b), and by each Lender in its account or accounts pursuant to Sections 2.11(a) and (b), shall be prima facie evidence of
the amount of principal and interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to, in the case of the Register, each Lender and, in the case of such account or accounts, such Lender, under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, absent manifest error; provided that the failure of the Administrative Agent or such Lender to make an entry, or any finding that an entry is incorrect, in the Register or such account or accounts shall not limit or otherwise
affect the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
 SECTION 2.12. Payments Generally.

 (a) All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or
setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein and except with respect to principal of and interest on Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency (other than Dollars), all payments by the Borrowers hereunder shall be made to the
Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the applicable Administrative Agent’s Office in Dollars and in Same Day Funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified herein. Except as
otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower hereunder with respect to principal and interest on Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency (other than Dollars) shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the
respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the applicable Administrative Agent’s Office in such Alternative Currency and in Same Day Funds not later than 2:00 p.m. (London time) on the dates specified herein. If, for any reason, the
Borrower is prohibited by any Law from making any required payment hereunder in an Alternative Currency, the Borrower shall make such payment in Dollars in the Dollar Amount of the Alternative Currency payment amount. The Administrative Agent will
promptly distribute to each Lender its Pro Rata Share (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent
(i) after 2:00 p.m., in the case of payments in Dollars, or (ii) after 2:00 p.m. (London time) in the case of payments in an Alternative Currency (other than Dollars), shall in each case be deemed received on the next succeeding Business
Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. 
  

 -83- 

 (b) If any payment to be made by the Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment
shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be; provided that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of
Eurocurrency Rate Loans to be made in the next succeeding calendar month, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. 
 (c) Unless the Borrower or any Lender has notified the Administrative Agent, prior to the date any payment is required to be made by it to the Administrative Agent hereunder, that the Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, will not
make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, has timely made such payment and may (but shall not be so required to), in reliance thereon, make available a corresponding amount to the
Person entitled thereto. If and to the extent that such payment was not in fact made to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds, then: 
 (i) if the Borrower failed to make such payment, each Lender shall forthwith on demand repay to the Administrative Agent the portion of such assumed payment that was made available to such Lender in Same Day Funds,
together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds at the
applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect; and 
 (ii) if any Lender failed to make such payment, such Lender
shall forthwith on demand pay to the Administrative Agent the amount thereof in Same Day Funds, together with interest thereon for the period from the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower to the date such
amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent (the “Compensation Period”) at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. When such Lender makes payment to the Administrative Agent (together
with all accrued interest thereon), then such payment amount (excluding the amount of any interest which may have accrued and been paid in respect of such late payment) shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in the applicable Borrowing.
If such Lender does not pay such amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent may make a demand therefor upon the Borrower, and the Borrower shall pay such amount to the Administrative Agent,
together with interest thereon for the Compensation Period at a rate per annum equal to the rate of interest applicable to the applicable Borrowing. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment
or to prejudice any rights which the Administrative Agent or the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder. 
 A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this Section 2.12(c) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. 
  

 -84- 

 (d) If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such
Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article 2, and such funds are not made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Credit Extension set forth in Article 4 are not satisfied or
waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest. 
 (e) The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans and to fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans are several and not
joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan or to fund any such participation on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the
failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan or purchase its participation. 
 (f) Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender
to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner. 
 (g) Whenever any payment received by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents is insufficient to pay in full all
amounts due and payable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under or in respect of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on any date, such payment shall be distributed by the Administrative Agent and applied by the Administrative Agent
and the Lenders in the order of priority set forth in Section 8.04. If the Administrative Agent receives funds for application to the Obligations of the Loan Parties and Guarantors under or in respect of the Loan Documents under circumstances
for which the Loan Documents do not specify the manner in which such funds are to be applied, the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, elect to distribute such funds to each of the Lenders in accordance with such Lender’s
Pro Rata Share of the sum of (a) the Outstanding Amount of all Loans outstanding at such time and (b) the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations outstanding at such time, in repayment or prepayment of such of the outstanding Loans or
other Obligations then owing to such Lender. 
 SECTION 2.13. Sharing of Payments. If, other than as expressly provided elsewhere
herein, any Lender shall obtain on account of the Loans made by it, or the participations in L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans held by it, any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of setoff, or otherwise) in
excess of its ratable share (or other share contemplated hereunder) thereof, such Lender shall immediately (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Loans made by
them and/or such subparticipations in the participations in L/C Obligations or Swing Line Loans held by them, as the case may be, as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment in respect of such Loans or such
participations, as the case may be, pro rata with each of them; provided that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.06
(including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the purchasing Lender in its discretion), such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price paid therefor, together
with an amount equal to such paying Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the 

  

 -85- 

 
amount of such paying Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount
paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered, without further interest thereon. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender may, to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable Law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of setoff, but subject to Section 10.09) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such
participation. The Administrative Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased under this Section 2.13 and will in each case notify the Lenders following any such
purchases or repayments. Each Lender that purchases a participation pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall from and after such purchase have the right to give all notices, requests, demands, directions and other communications under this Agreement
with respect to the portion of the Obligations purchased to the same extent as though the purchasing Lender were the original owner of the Obligations purchased. 
 SECTION 2.14. Incremental Credit Extensions. 
 (a) The Borrower may at any time or from time to time
after the Closing Date, by notice to the Administrative Agent (whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Lenders), request (a) one or more additional tranches of term loans (the “Incremental Term
Loans”) or (b) one or more increases in the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments (each such increase, a “Revolving Commitment Increase”), provided that both at the time of any such request and upon the
effectiveness of any Incremental Amendment referred to below, no Default or Event of Default shall exist and at the time that any such Incremental Term Loan is made (and after giving effect thereto) no Default or Event of Default shall exist. Each
tranche of Incremental Term Loans and each Revolving Commitment Increase shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $25,000,000 (provided that such amount may be less than $25,000,000 if such amount represents all
remaining availability under the limit set forth in the next sentence). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the aggregate amount of the Incremental Term Loans and the Revolving Commitment Increases shall not exceed $1,000,000,000 (the
“Incremental Availability”); provided that the Incremental Availability shall be reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis by the aggregate amount of all Indebtedness incurred pursuant to Section 7.03(u). The Incremental Term
Loans (a) shall rank pari passu in right of payment and of security with the Revolving Credit Loans and the Term Loans, (b) shall not mature earlier than the Maturity Date with respect to the Term Loans and (c) shall be treated
substantially the same as the Term Loans (in each case, including with respect to mandatory and voluntary prepayments), provided that (i) the terms and conditions applicable to Incremental Term Loans may be materially different from
those of the Term Loans to the extent such differences are reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and (ii) the interest rates and amortization schedule applicable to the Incremental Term Loans shall be determined by the Borrower and
the lenders thereof. Each notice from the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall set forth the requested amount and proposed terms of the relevant Incremental Term Loans or Revolving Commitment Increases. Incremental Term Loans may be made,
and Revolving Commitment Increases may be provided, by any existing Lender (and each existing Term Lender will have the right, but not an obligation, to make a portion of any Incremental Term Loan, and each existing Revolving Credit Lender will have
the right, but not an obligation, to provide a portion of any Revolving Commitment Increase, in each case on terms permitted in 

  

 -86- 

 
this Section 2.14 and otherwise on terms reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent) or by any other bank or other financial institution (any
such other bank or other financial institution being called an “Additional Lender”), provided that the Administrative Agent shall have consented (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) to such Lender’s or
Additional Lender’s making such Incremental Term Loans or providing such Revolving Commitment Increases if such consent would be required under Section 10.07(b) for an assignment of Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, to
such Lender or Additional Lender. Commitments in respect of Incremental Term Loans and Revolving Commitment Increases shall become Commitments (or in the case of a Revolving Commitment Increase to be provided by an existing Revolving Credit Lender,
an increase in such Lender’s applicable Revolving Credit Commitment) under this Agreement pursuant to an amendment (an “Incremental Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by
Parent, Foreign Holdings, Holdings, the Borrower, each Lender agreeing to provide such Commitment, if any, each Additional Lender, if any, and the Administrative Agent. The Incremental Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect
such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section. The effectiveness of (and, in the
case of any Incremental Amendment for an Incremental Term Loan, the borrowing under) any Incremental Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof (each, an “Incremental Facility Closing Date”) of each of the
conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (it being understood that all references to “the date of such Credit Extension” or similar language in such Section 4.02 shall be deemed to refer to the effective date of such Incremental
Amendment) and such other conditions as the parties thereto shall agree. The Borrower will use the proceeds of the Incremental Term Loans and Revolving Commitment Increases for any purpose not prohibited by this Agreement. No Lender shall be
obligated to provide any Incremental Term Loans or Revolving Commitment Increases, unless it so agrees. Upon each increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to this Section, each Revolving Credit Lender immediately prior to such increase
will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assigned to each Lender providing a portion of the Revolving Commitment Increase (each a “Revolving Commitment Increase Lender”) in respect of such increase, and each such
Revolving Commitment Increase Lender will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assumed, a portion of such Revolving Credit Lender’s participations hereunder in outstanding Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans such that,
after giving effect to each such deemed assignment and assumption of participations, the percentage of the aggregate outstanding (i) participations hereunder in Letters of Credit and (ii) participations hereunder in Swing Line Loans held
by each Revolving Credit Lender (including each such Revolving Commitment Increase Lender) will equal the percentage of the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments of all Revolving Credit Lenders represented by such Revolving Credit Lender’s
Revolving Credit Commitment and (b) if, on the date of such increase, there are any Revolving Credit Loans outstanding, such Revolving Credit Loans shall on or prior to the effectiveness of such Revolving Commitment Increase be prepaid from the
proceeds of additional Revolving Credit Loans made hereunder (reflecting such increase in Revolving Credit Commitments), which prepayment shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the Revolving Credit Loans being prepaid and any costs incurred by
any Lender in accordance with Section 3.05. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that the minimum borrowing, pro rata borrowing and pro rata payment requirements contained elsewhere in this 
 Agreement shall not apply to the transactions effected pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence. 
  

 -87- 

 (b) This Section 2.14 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.13 or 10.01 to the contrary.

 SECTION 2.15. Currency Equivalents. 
 (a) The Administrative Agent shall determine the Dollar Amount of each Alternative Currency Loan and L/C Obligation in respect of Letters of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency (other than Dollars)
(i) in the case of any Term Loan, as of the Closing Date, and (ii) otherwise, (A) as of the first day of each Interest Period applicable thereto and (B) as of the end of each fiscal quarter of the Borrower, and shall promptly
notify the Borrower and the Lenders of each Dollar Amount so determined by it. Each such determination shall be based on the Exchange Rate (x) on the date of the related Borrowing Request for purposes of the initial such determination for any
Alternative Currency Loan and (y) on the fourth Business Day prior to the date as of which such Dollar Amount is to be determined, for purposes of any subsequent determination. 
 (b) If after giving effect to any such determination of a Dollar Amount, the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Alternative Currency Revolving Credit
Loans and the Alternative Currency L/C Obligations exceeds the aggregate Alternative Currency Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect by 5% or more, the Borrower shall, within five (5) Business Days of receipt of notice thereof from the
Administrative Agent setting forth such calculation in reasonable detail, prepay or cause to be prepaid outstanding Alternative Currency Revolving Credit Loans or take other action (including, in the Borrower’s discretion, cash
collateralization of Alternative Currency L/C Obligations in amounts from time to time equal to such excess) to the extent necessary to eliminate any such excess. 
 ARTICLE III 
 Taxes, Increased Costs Protection and Illegality 
 SECTION 3.01. Taxes. 
 (a) Except as
provided in this Section 3.01, any and all payments by the Borrower (the term Borrower under Article 3 being deemed to include any Subsidiary for whose account a Letter of Credit is issued) or any Guarantor to or for the account of any Agent or
any Lender under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, withholdings or similar charges, and all liabilities (including
additions to tax, penalties and interest) with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of each Agent and each Lender, taxes imposed on or measured by its net income (including branch profits), and franchise (and similar) taxes imposed on it in lieu
of net income taxes, by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) under the Laws of which such Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, is organized or maintains a Lending Office, and all liabilities (including additions to tax,
penalties and interest) with respect thereto (all such non-excluded taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, 

  

 -88- 

 
assessments, fees, withholdings or similar charges, and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If the Borrower shall be
required by any Laws to deduct any Taxes or Other Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan Document to any Agent or any Lender, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions
(including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.01), each of such Agent and such Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall
make such deductions, (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable Laws, and (iv) within thirty (30) days after the date of such payment (or,
if receipts or evidence are not available within thirty (30) days, as soon as possible thereafter), the Borrower shall furnish to such Agent or Lender (as the case may be) the original or a facsimile copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof
to the extent such a receipt is issued therefor, or other written proof of payment thereof that is reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. If the Borrower fails to pay any Taxes or Other Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing
authority or fails to remit to any Agent or any Lender the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Borrower shall indemnify such Agent and such Lender for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by
such Agent or such Lender arising out of such failure. 
 (b) In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay any and all present or future stamp,
court or documentary taxes and any other excise, property, intangible or mortgage recording taxes or charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made under any Loan Document or from the execution, delivery, performance, enforcement or
registration of, or otherwise with respect to, any Loan Document excluding, in each case, such amounts that result from an Assignment and Assumption, grant of a Participation, transfer or assignment to or designation of a new applicable Lending
Office or other office for receiving payments under any Loan Document, except to the extent that any such change is requested or required in writing by the Borrower (all such non-excluded taxes described in this Section 3.01(b) being
hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”). 
 (c) The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Agent and each Lender for
(i) the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable and paid under this Section 3.01) payable by such Agent and such Lender and (ii) any
reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, in each case whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority; provided such Agent or Lender, as the
case may be, provides the Borrower with a written statement thereof setting forth in reasonable detail the basis and calculation of such amounts. Payment under this Section 3.01(c) shall be made within ten (10) days after the date such
Lender or such Agent makes a demand therefor. 
 (d) The Borrower shall not be required pursuant to this Section 3.01 to pay any
additional amount to, or to indemnify, any Lender or Agent, as the case may be, to the extent that such Lender or such Agent becomes subject to Taxes subsequent to the Closing Date (or, if later, the date such Lender or Agent becomes a party to this
Agreement) as a result of a change in the place of organization or place of doing business of such Lender or Agent or a change in the lending office of such Lender, except to the extent that any such change is requested or required in writing by the
Borrower (and provided that nothing in this clause (d) shall be construed as relieving the Borrower from any obligation to make such payments or indemnification in the event of a change in lending office or place of organization that
precedes a change in Law to the extent such Taxes result from a change in Law). 
  

 -89- 

 (e) Notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary, if a Foreign Lender or an Agent is subject to
U.S. federal withholding tax at a rate in excess of zero percent at the time such Lender or such Agent, as the case may be, first becomes a party to this Agreement, U.S. federal withholding tax (including additions to tax, penalties and interest
imposed with respect to such U.S. federal withholding tax which is excluded from Taxes under this clause (e)) imposed by such jurisdiction at such rate shall be considered excluded from Taxes unless such Lender or Agent, as the case may be, is
subject to a lesser rate of withholding and provides the appropriate forms certifying that a lesser rate applies, whereupon U.S. federal withholding tax at such lesser rate only shall be considered excluded from Taxes for periods governed by such
forms for which such lesser rate applies; provided that, if at the date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which a Foreign Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, the Lender assignor was entitled to payments under clause
(a) of this Section 3.01 in respect of U.S. federal withholding tax with respect to interest paid at such date, then, to such extent, the term Taxes shall include the U.S. federal withholding tax, if any, applicable with respect to the
Lender assignee on such date. A Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of Bermuda withholding tax shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law and as
reasonably requested by the Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate; provided that such Lender is legally
entitled to complete, execute and deliver such documentation and in such Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would not materially prejudice the legal position of such Lender or be otherwise materially
disadvantageous to such Lender; provided, further, that the Borrower, shall reimburse such Lender for any material out-of-pocket costs that are incurred by the Lender with respect to providing any such documentation. 
 (f) If any Lender or Agent determines, in its reasonable discretion, that it is entitled to receive a refund in respect of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to
which indemnification or additional amounts have been paid to it by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 3.01, it shall use its reasonable best efforts to receive such refund and upon receipt of any such refund shall promptly remit such refund
(but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 3.01 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund plus any interest included in such refund by the
relevant taxing authority attributable thereto) to the Borrower, net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Lender or Agent, as the case may be and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant taxing authority with respect
to such refund); provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Lender or Agent, as the case may be, agrees promptly to return such refund to such party in the event such party is required to repay such refund to the relevant taxing
authority. Such Lender or Agent, as the case may be, shall, at the Borrower’s request, provide the Borrower with a copy of any notice of assessment or other evidence of the requirement to repay such refund received from the relevant taxing
authority (provided that such Lender or Agent may delete any information therein that such Lender or Agent deems confidential). Nothing herein contained shall interfere with the right of a Lender or Agent to arrange its tax affairs in
whatever manner it thinks fit nor oblige any Lender or Agent to claim any tax refund or to make available 

  

 -90- 

 
its tax returns or disclose any information relating to its tax affairs or any computations in respect thereof or require any Lender or Agent to do anything
that would prejudice its ability to benefit from any other refunds, credits, reliefs, remissions or repayments to which it may be entitled. 
 (g) Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 3.01(a) or (c) with respect to such Lender it will, if requested by the Borrower, use commercially reasonable efforts (subject
to legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate another Lending Office for any Loan or Letter of Credit affected by such event; provided that such efforts are made on terms that, in the sole judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and
its Lending Office(s) to suffer no material economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, and provided further that nothing in this Section 3.01(g) shall affect or postpone any of the Obligations of the Borrower or the rights of such
Lender pursuant to Section 3.01(a) or (c). 
 SECTION 3.02. Illegality. If any Lender determines that any Law has made it
unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Eurocurrency Rate Loans, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurocurrency
Rate, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Eurocurrency Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be suspended
until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all Eurocurrency Rate Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate
Loans to such day, or promptly, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted and all
amounts due, if any, in connection with such prepayment or conversion under Section 3.05. Each Lender agrees to designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith
judgment of such Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender. 
 SECTION 3.03. Inability to Determine Rates. If the
Required Lenders determine that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurocurrency Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurocurrency Rate Loan, or that the Eurocurrency Rate for
any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurocurrency Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, or that Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank
eurodollar market for the applicable amount and the Interest Period of such Eurocurrency Rate Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain
Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to
or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.

 SECTION 3.04. Increased Cost and Reduced Return; Capital Adequacy; Reserves on Eurocurrency Rate
Loans. 
 (a) If any Lender determines that as a result of the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any Law, in
each case after the date hereof, or such Lender’s compliance therewith, there shall be any increase in the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining Eurocurrency Rate Loans or issuing or participating in Letters
of Credit, or a reduction in the amount received or receivable by such Lender in connection with any of the foregoing (excluding for purposes of this Section 3.04(a) any such increased costs or reduction in amount resulting from (i) Taxes
or Other Taxes covered by Section 3.01, (ii) the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any taxes payable by such Lender, (iii) reserve requirements contemplated by Section 3.04(c) or (iv) the requirements of the Bank
of England and the Financial Services Authority or the European Central Bank reflected in the Mandatory Cost, other than as set forth below) or the Mandatory Cost, as calculated hereunder, does not represent the cost to such Lender of complying with
the requirements of the Bank of England and/or the Financial Services Authority or the European Central Bank in relation to its making, funding or maintaining of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, then from time to time within fifteen (15) days after
demand by such Lender setting forth in reasonable detail such increased costs (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent given in accordance with Section 3.06), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will
compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction or, if applicable, the portion of such cost that is not represented by the Mandatory Cost. 
 (b) If any Lender determines that the introduction of any Law regarding capital adequacy or any change therein or in the interpretation thereof, in each case after the date hereof, or compliance by such Lender (or its
Lending Office) therewith, has the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender as a consequence of such Lender’s obligations hereunder (taking into consideration its policies
with respect to capital adequacy and such Lender’s desired return on capital), then from time to time upon demand of such Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the charge and the calculation of such reduced rate of return (with a copy of
such demand to the Administrative Agent given in accordance with Section 3.06), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such
demand. 
 (c) The Borrower shall pay to each Lender, (i) as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to
liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits, additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurocurrency Rate Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as
determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error), and (ii) as long as such Lender shall be required to comply with any reserve ratio requirement or analogous requirement of any
other central banking or financial regulatory authority imposed in respect of the maintenance of the Commitments or the funding of the Eurocurrency Rate Loans, such additional costs (expressed as a percentage per annum and rounded upwards, if
necessary, to the nearest five decimal places) equal to the actual costs allocated to such Commitment or Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) which in each
case shall be 

  

 -92- 

 
due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan, provided the Borrower shall have received at least fifteen
(15) days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional interest or cost from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice fifteen (15) days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional
interest or cost shall be due and payable fifteen (15) days from receipt of such notice. 
 (d) Failure or delay on the part of any
Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 3.04 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
Section 3.04(a), (b) or (c) for any such increased cost or reduction incurred more than one hundred and eighty (180) days prior to the date that such Lender demands, or notifies the Borrower of its intention to demand,
compensation therefor, provided further that, if the circumstance giving rise to such increased cost or reduction is retroactive, then such 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect
thereof. 
 (e) If any Lender requests compensation under this Section 3.04, then such Lender will, if requested by the Borrower, use
commercially reasonable efforts to designate another Lending Office for any Loan or Letter of Credit affected by such event; provided that such efforts are made on terms that, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and
its Lending Office(s) to suffer no material economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, and provided further that nothing in this Section 3.04(e) shall affect or postpone any of the Obligations of the Borrower or the rights of such
Lender pursuant to Section 3.04(a), (b), (c) or (d). 
 SECTION 3.05. Funding Losses. Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy
to the Administrative Agent) from time to time, the Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of: 
 (a) (i) any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of
the Interest Period for such Loan; or 
 (b) any failure by the Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender
to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified by the Borrower; 
 including any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. 
 For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to the Lenders under this Section 3.05, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each
Eurocurrency Rate Loan made by it at the Eurocurrency Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurocurrency Rate
Loan was in fact so funded. 
  

 -93- 

 SECTION 3.06. Matters Applicable to All Requests for Compensation. 
 (a) Any Agent or any Lender claiming compensation under this Article 3 shall deliver a certificate to the Borrower setting forth the additional amount or
amounts to be paid to it hereunder which shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, such Agent or such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. 
 (b) With respect to any Lender’s claim for compensation under Sections 3.01, 3.02, 3.03 or 3.04, no Borrower shall be required to compensate
such Lender for any amount incurred more than one hundred and eighty (180) days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the event that gives rise to such claim; provided that, if the circumstance giving rise to such
claim is retroactive, then such 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. If any Lender requests compensation by the Borrower under Section 3.04, the Borrower may, by notice to such
Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), suspend the obligation of such Lender to make or continue from one Interest Period to another Eurocurrency Rate Loans, or to convert Base Rate Loans into Eurocurrency Rate Loans, until the event or
condition giving rise to such request ceases to be in effect (in which case the provisions of Section 3.06(c) shall be applicable); provided that such suspension shall not affect the right of such Lender to receive the compensation so
requested. 
 (c) If the obligation of any Lender to make or continue from one Interest Period to another any Eurocurrency Rate Loan, or to
convert Base Rate Loans into Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be suspended pursuant to Section 3.06(b) hereof, such Lender’s Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be automatically converted into Base Rate Loans on the last day(s) of the then current
Interest Period(s) for such Eurocurrency Rate Loans (or, in the case of an immediate conversion required by Section 3.02, on such earlier date as required by Law) and, unless and until such Lender gives notice as provided below that the
circumstances specified in Section 3.01, 3.02, 3.03 or 3.04 hereof that gave rise to such conversion no longer exist: 
 (i) to the extent that such Lender’s Eurocurrency Rate Loans have been so converted, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise be applied to such Lender’s Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be applied instead to
its Base Rate Loans; and 
 (ii) all Loans that would otherwise be made or continued from one Interest Period to another by
such Lender as Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be made or continued instead as Base Rate Loans, and all Base Rate Loans of such Lender that would otherwise be converted into Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall remain as Base Rate Loans. 
 (d) If any Lender gives notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Agent) that the circumstances specified in Section 3.01, 3.02, 3.03 or 3.04
hereof that gave rise to the conversion of such Lender’s Eurocurrency Rate Loans pursuant to this Section 3.06 no longer exist (which such Lender agrees to do promptly upon such circumstances ceasing to exist) at a time when Eurocurrency
Rate Loans made by other Lenders are outstanding, such Lender’s Base Rate Loans shall be automatically converted, on the first day(s) of the next succeeding Interest Period(s) for such outstanding Eurocurrency Rate Loans, to the extent
necessary so that, after giving effect thereto, all Loans held by the Lenders holding Eurocurrency Rate Loans and by such Lender are held pro rata (as to principal amounts, interest rate basis, and Interest Periods) in accordance with their
respective Commitments. 
  

 -94- 

 SECTION 3.07. Replacement of Lenders under Certain Circumstances. 
 (a) If at any time (i) any Lender requests reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.04 as a result of any condition
described in such Sections or any Lender ceases to make Eurocurrency Rate Loans as a result of any condition described in Section 3.02 or Section 3.04, (ii) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or (iii) any Lender becomes
a Non-Consenting Lender, then the Borrower may, on ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and such Lender, replace such Lender by causing such Lender to (and such Lender shall be obligated to) assign
pursuant to Section 10.07(b) (with the assignment fee to be paid by the Borrower in such instance) all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (or, with respect to clause (iii) above, all of its rights and obligations with
respect to the Class of Loans or Commitments that is the subject of the related consent, waiver or amendment) to one or more Eligible Assignees; provided that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to the
Borrower to find a replacement Lender or other such Person; and provided further that (A) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.04 or payments required to be made pursuant to
Section 3.01, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments and (B) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable Eligible Assignees shall have
agreed to the applicable departure, waiver or amendment of the Loan Documents. 
 (b) Any Lender being replaced pursuant to
Section 3.07(a) above shall (i) execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption with respect to such Lender’s Commitment and outstanding Loans and participations in L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans, and (ii) deliver any
Notes evidencing such Loans to the Borrower or Administrative Agent. Pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption, (A) the assignee Lender shall acquire all or a portion, as the case may be, of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and
outstanding Loans and participations in L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans, (B) all obligations of the Borrower owing to the assigning Lender relating to the Loans and participations so assigned shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender to
such assigning Lender concurrently with such assignment and assumption and (C) upon such payment and, if so requested by the assignee Lender, delivery to the assignee Lender of the appropriate Note or Notes executed by the Borrower, the
assignee Lender shall become a Lender hereunder and the assigning Lender shall cease to constitute a Lender hereunder with respect to such assigned Loans, Commitments and participations, except with respect to indemnification provisions under this
Agreement, which shall survive as to such assigning Lender. 
 (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, any Lender that
acts as an L/C Issuer may not be replaced hereunder at any time that it has any Letter of Credit outstanding hereunder unless arrangements reasonably satisfactory to such L/C Issuer (including the furnishing of a back-up standby letter of credit in
form and substance, and issued by an issuer reasonably satisfactory to such L/C Issuer or the depositing of cash collateral into a cash collateral account in amounts and pursuant to arrangements reasonably satisfactory to such L/C Issuer) have been
made with respect to each such outstanding Letter of Credit and the Lender that acts as the Administrative Agent may not be replaced hereunder except in accordance with the terms of Section 9.09. 
  

 -95- 

 (d) In the event that (i) the Borrower or the Administrative Agent has requested that the Lenders
consent to a departure or waiver of any provisions of the Loan Documents or agree to any amendment thereto, (ii) the consent, waiver or amendment in question requires the agreement of all affected Lenders in accordance with the terms of
Section 10.01 or all the Lenders with respect to a certain Class of the Loans and (iii) the Required Lenders have agreed to such consent, waiver or amendment, then any Lender who does not agree to such consent, waiver or amendment shall be
deemed a “Non-Consenting Lender.” 
 SECTION 3.08. Survival. All of the Borrower’s obligations under this
Article 3 shall survive termination of the Aggregate Commitments and repayment of all other Obligations hereunder.

 ARTICLE V

 The Borrower represents and warrants to the Agents and the Lenders that:

 -99- 

 SECTION 5.02. Authorization; No Contravention. The execution, delivery and performance by each
Loan Party of each Loan Document to which such Person is a party, and the consummation of the Transaction, are within such Loan Party’s corporate or other powers, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other organizational
action, and do not and will not (a) contravene the terms of any of such Person’s Organization Documents, (b) conflict with or result in any breach or contravention of, or the creation of any Lien under (other than as permitted by
Section 7.01), or require any payment to be made under (i) any Contractual Obligation to which such Person is a party or affecting such Person or the properties of such Person or any of its Subsidiaries or (ii) any material order,
injunction, writ or decree of any Governmental Authority or any arbitral award to which such Person or its property is subject; or (c) violate any material Law; except with respect to any conflict, breach or contravention or payment (but not
creation of Liens) referred to in clause (b)(i), to the extent that such conflict, breach, contravention or payment could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 SECTION 5.03. Governmental Authorization; Other Consents. No material approval, consent, exemption, authorization, or other action by, or notice
to, or filing with, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is necessary or required in connection with (a) the execution, delivery or performance by, or enforcement against, any Loan Party of this Agreement or any other Loan Document,

 SECTION 5.04. Binding Effect. This Agreement and each other Loan Document has been duly executed and delivered by each Loan Party
and each Guarantor that is party thereto. This Agreement and each other Loan Document constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Loan Party or Guarantor, as the case may be, enforceable against each Loan Party and each Guarantor that
is party thereto in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by Debtor Relief Laws and by general principles of equity. 
 SECTION 5.05. Financial Statements; No Material Adverse Effect. 
 (a) (i) The Audited Financial
Statements and the Unaudited Financial Statements fairly present in all material respects the financial condition of Freescale and its Subsidiaries as of the dates thereof and their results of operations for the period covered thereby in accordance
with GAAP consistently applied throughout the periods covered thereby, except as otherwise expressly noted therein. During the period from December 31, 2005 to and including the Closing Date, there has been (i) no sale, transfer or other
disposition by Freescale or any of its Subsidiaries of any material part of the business or property of Freescale or any of its 

  

 -100- 

 
Subsidiaries, taken as a whole and (ii) no purchase or other acquisition by Freescale or any of its Subsidiaries of any business or property (including
any Equity Interests of any other Person) material in relation to the consolidated financial condition of Freescale and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, in each case, which is not reflected in the foregoing financial statements or in the notes
thereto or has not otherwise been disclosed in writing to the Administrative Agent prior to the Closing Date. 
 (ii) The unaudited pro forma
consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as at September 29, 2006 (including the notes thereto) (the “Pro Forma Balance Sheet”) and the unaudited pro forma consolidated statement of operations of the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries for the most recent fiscal year, the quarter ended September 29, 2006 and the 12-month period ending on September 29, 2006 (together with the Pro Forma Balance Sheet, the “Pro Forma Financial
Statements”), copies of which have heretofore been furnished to the Administrative Agent, have been prepared giving effect (as if such events had occurred on such date or at the beginning of such periods, as the case may be) to the
Transaction, each material acquisition by Freescale or any of its Subsidiaries consummated after September 29, 2006 and prior to the Closing Date and all other transactions that would be required to be given pro forma effect by Regulation S-X
promulgated under the Exchange Act (including other adjustments consistent with the definition of Pro Forma Adjustment or as otherwise agreed between the Borrower and the Arrangers). The Pro Forma Financial Statements have been prepared in good
faith, based on assumptions believed by the Borrower to be reasonable as of the date of delivery thereof, and present fairly in all material respects on a pro forma basis the estimated financial position of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as at
September 29, 2006 and their estimated results of operations for the periods covered thereby, assuming that the events specified in the preceding sentence had actually occurred at such date or at the beginning of the periods covered thereby.

 (b) Since the Closing Date, there has been no event or circumstance, either individually or in the aggregate, that has had or could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (c) The forecasts of consolidated balance sheets, income statements and cash
flow statements of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries for each fiscal year ending after the Closing Date until the seventh anniversary of the Closing Date, copies of which have been furnished to the Administrative Agent prior to the Closing Date in a
form reasonably satisfactory to it, have been prepared in good faith on the basis of the assumptions stated therein, which assumptions were believed to be reasonable at the time of preparation of such forecasts, it being understood that actual
results may vary from such forecasts and that such variations may be material. 
 (d) As of the Closing Date, neither Parent nor any
Subsidiary has any Indebtedness or other obligations or liabilities, direct or contingent (other than (i) the liabilities reflected on Schedule 5.05, (ii) obligations arising under this Agreement and (iii) liabilities incurred
in the ordinary course of business) that, either individually or in the aggregate, have had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 SECTION 5.06. Litigation. There are no actions, suits, proceedings, claims or disputes pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened in writing or contemplated, at law, in equity, in arbitration or
before any Governmental Authority, by or against the Borrower 

  

 -101-

trustee or agent on behalf of such holder or holders or beneficiary or beneficiaries) to cause, with the giving of notice if required, such Indebtedness to become due or to be repurchased, prepaid, defeased or redeemed (automatically or otherwise),
or an offer to repurchase, prepay, defease or redeem such Indebtedness to be made, prior to its stated maturity; provided that this clause (e)(B) shall not apply to secured Indebtedness that becomes due as a result of the voluntary sale or

the priority required by the Collateral Documents (or other security purported to be created on the applicable Collateral) on and security interest in any material portion of the Collateral purported to 

  

 -137- 

 
be covered thereby, subject to Liens permitted under Section 7.01, except to the extent that any such loss of perfection or priority results from the
failure of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent to maintain possession of certificates actually delivered to it representing securities pledged under the Collateral Documents or to file Uniform Commercial Code continuation statements and
except as to Collateral consisting of real property to the extent that such losses are covered by a lender’s title insurance policy and such insurer has not denied or failed to acknowledge coverage, or (ii) any of the Equity Interests of

 (b) declare the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon, and all other amounts owing or
payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document to be immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower; 
 (c) require that the Borrower Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations (in an amount equal to the then Outstanding Amount thereof); and

 (d) exercise on behalf of itself and the Lenders all rights and remedies available to it and the Lenders under the Loan
Documents or applicable Law; 
 provided that upon the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Borrower
under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, the obligation of each Lender 

  

 -138- 

 
to make Loans and any obligation of the L/C Issuers to make L/C Credit Extensions shall automatically terminate, the unpaid principal amount of all
outstanding Loans and all interest and other amounts as aforesaid shall automatically become due and payable, and the obligation of the Borrower to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations as aforesaid shall automatically become effective, in each
case without further act of the Administrative Agent or any Lender. 
 SECTION 8.03. Exclusion of Immaterial Subsidiaries. Solely for
the purpose of determining whether a Default has occurred under clause (f) or (g) of Section 8.01, any reference in any such clause to any Restricted Subsidiary or Loan Party shall be deemed not to include any Restricted Subsidiary
affected by any event or circumstances referred to in any such clause that did not, as of the last day of the most recent completed fiscal quarter of Parent, have assets with a value in excess of 5% of Total Assets and did not, as of the four
quarter period ending on the last day of such fiscal quarter, have revenues exceeding 5% of the total revenues of Parent and the Restricted Subsidiaries (it being agreed that all Restricted Subsidiaries affected by any event or circumstance referred
to in any such clause shall be considered together, as a single consolidated Restricted Subsidiary, for purposes of determining whether the condition specified above is satisfied). 
 SECTION 8.04. Application of Funds. After the exercise of remedies provided for in Section 8.02 (or after the Loans have automatically become
immediately due and payable and the L/C Obligations have automatically been required to be Cash Collateralized as set forth in the proviso to Section 8.02), any amounts received on account of the Obligations shall be applied by the
Administrative Agent in the following order: 
 First, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees,
indemnities, expenses and other amounts (other than principal and interest, but including Attorney Costs payable under Section 10.04 and amounts payable under Article 3) payable to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such; 

Second, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal and
interest) payable to the Lenders (including Attorney Costs payable under Section 10.05 and amounts payable under Article 3), ratably among them in proportion to the amounts described in this clause Second payable to them; 
 Third, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans and L/C Borrowings,
ratably among the Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Third payable to them; 
 Fourth, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Loans and L/C Borrowings, the Swap Termination Value under Secured Hedge Agreements and the Cash Management Obligations, ratably among the
Secured Parties in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Fourth held by them; 
 Fifth, to the
Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuers, to Cash Collateralize that portion of L/C Obligations comprised of the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit; 
  

 -139- 

 Sixth, to the payment of all other Obligations of the Loan Parties and Guarantors
that are due and payable to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such Obligations owing to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties on such
date; and 
 Last, the balance, if any, after all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, to the
Borrower or as otherwise required by Law. 
 Subject to Section 2.03(c), amounts used to Cash Collateralize the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of
Credit pursuant to clause Fifth above shall be applied to satisfy drawings under such Letters of Credit as they occur. If any amount remains on deposit as Cash Collateral after all Letters of Credit have either been fully drawn or expired, such
remaining amount shall be applied to the other Obligations, if any, in the order set forth above and, if no Obligations remain outstanding, to the Borrower. 
 ARTICLE IX 
 Administrative Agent and Other Agents 
 SECTION 9.01. Appointment and Authorization of Agents. 
 (a) Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints, designates and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise
such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained
elsewhere herein or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall the Administrative Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with
any Lender or participant, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” herein and in the other Loan Documents with reference to any Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under
agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. 
 (b) Each L/C Issuer shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and
each such L/C Issuer shall have all of the benefits and immunities (i) provided to the Agents in this Article 9 with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by such L/C Issuer in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or
proposed to be issued by it and the applications and agreements for letters of credit pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Agent” as used in this Article 9 and in the definition of “Agent-Related Person”
included such L/C Issuer with respect to such acts or omissions, and (ii) as additionally provided herein with respect to such L/C Issuer. 
  

 -140- 

 (c) The Administrative Agent shall also act as the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents,
and each of the Lenders (in its capacities as a Lender, Swing Line Lender (if applicable), L/C Issuer (if applicable) and a potential Hedge Bank) hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the agent of (and to hold
any security interest created by the Collateral Documents for and on behalf of or on trust for) such Lender for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to secure any of the
Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection, the Administrative Agent, as “collateral agent” (and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the
Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.02 for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Collateral Documents, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction
of the Administrative Agent), shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article 9 (including Section 9.07, as though such co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact were the “collateral agent” under the Loan
Documents) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto. 
 SECTION 9.02. Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may
execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Collateral Documents or of exercising any rights and
remedies thereunder) by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact including for the purpose of any Borrowing or payment in Alternative Currencies, such sub-agents as shall be deemed necessary by the Administrative Agent and shall be entitled
to advice of counsel and other consultants or experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or sub-agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects
in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined in the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction). 
 SECTION 9.03. Liability of Agents. No Agent-Related Person shall (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions
contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein), or (b) be responsible in any
manner to any Lender or participant for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by any Loan Party, any Guarantor or any officer thereof, contained herein or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or
other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the perfection or priority of any Lien or security interest created or purported to be created under the Collateral Documents, or for any failure of any Loan Party or any other party to any Loan Document to
perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lender or participant to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions
of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Loan Party or any Affiliate thereof. 
  

 -141- 

 SECTION 9.04. Reliance by Agents. 
 (a) Each Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, communication, signature, resolution,
representation, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, electronic mail message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed,
sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to any Loan Party or Guarantor), independent accountants and other experts selected by such Agent. Each Agent shall be fully justified
in failing or refusing to take any action under any Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by
the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Each Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders (or such greater number of Lenders as may be expressly required hereby in any instance) and such request and any action taken or failure to act
pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders. 
 (b) For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in
Section 4.01, each Lender that has signed this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or
satisfactory to a Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from such Lender prior to the proposed Closing Date specifying its objection thereto. 
 SECTION 9.05. Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest
and fees required to be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default and
stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” The Administrative Agent will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to any Event of Default as may be directed
by the Required Lenders in accordance with Article 8; provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent has received any such direction, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from
taking such action, with respect to such Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Lenders. 
 SECTION 9.06.
Credit Decision; Disclosure of Information by Agents. Each Lender acknowledges that no Agent-Related Person has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by any Agent hereafter taken, including any consent to and acceptance
of any assignment or review of the affairs of any Loan Party or any Affiliate thereof, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related Person to any Lender as to any matter, including whether Agent-Related Persons
have disclosed material information in their possession. Each Lender represents to each Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it has deemed 
  

 -142- 

 
appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and
creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their respective Subsidiaries, and all applicable bank or other regulatory Laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to
the Borrower and the other Loan Parties hereunder. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time,
continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business,
prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by any Agent herein,
such Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any of the Loan Parties or
any of their respective Affiliates which may come into the possession of any Agent-Related Person. 
 SECTION 9.07. Indemnification of
Agents. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Lenders shall indemnify upon demand each Agent-Related Person (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of any Loan Party and without limiting the obligation of
any Loan Party to do so), pro rata, and hold harmless each Agent-Related Person from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by it; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to any Agent-Related Person of any
portion of such Indemnified Liabilities resulting from such Agent-Related Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that no action taken in
accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be required by the Loan Documents) shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this
Section 9.07. In the case of any investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise to any Indemnified Liabilities, this Section 9.07 applies whether any such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Lender or any other
Person. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse the Administrative Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including Attorney Costs) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection
with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any
other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Borrower, provided that such reimbursement by the Lenders shall
not affect the Borrower’s continuing reimbursement obligations with respect thereto. The undertaking in this Section 9.07 shall survive termination of the Aggregate Commitments, the payment of all other Obligations and the resignation of
the Administrative Agent. 
 SECTION 9.08. Agents in their Individual Capacities. Citibank and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue
letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire Equity Interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with each of the Loan Parties, the Guarantors and their
respective Affiliates as 

  

 -143- 

 
though Citibank were not the Administrative Agent or an L/C Issuer hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Lenders. The Lenders acknowledge that,
pursuant to such activities, Citibank or its Affiliates may receive information regarding any Loan Party, any Guarantor or any of their Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Loan Party,
such Guarantor or such Affiliate) and acknowledge that the Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to its Loans, Citibank shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any
other Lender and may exercise such rights and powers as though it were not the Administrative Agent or an L/C Issuer, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” include Citibank in its individual capacity. 
 SECTION 9.09. Successor Agents. The Administrative Agent may resign as the Administrative Agent upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the
Lenders and the Borrower. If the Administrative Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent shall be consented to by the Borrower at all times
other than during the existence of an Event of Default under Section 8.01(f) or (g) (which consent of the Borrower shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the
resignation of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and the Borrower, a successor agent from among the Lenders. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor agent hereunder, the
Person acting as such successor agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the term “Administrative Agent,” shall mean such successor administrative agent and/or supplemental
administrative agent, as the case may be, and the retiring Administrative Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as the Administrative Agent shall be terminated. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as the
Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article 9 and Sections 10.04 and 10.05 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Administrative Agent under this Agreement. If no successor
agent has accepted appointment as the Administrative Agent by the date which is thirty (30) days following the retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless
thereupon become effective and the Lenders shall perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of any appointment
as the Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor and upon the execution and filing or recording of such financing statements, or amendments thereto, and such amendments or supplements to the Mortgages, and such other instruments or notices, as
may be necessary or desirable, or as the Required Lenders may request, in order to (a) continue the perfection of the Liens granted or purported to be granted by the Collateral Documents or (b) otherwise ensure that the Collateral and
Guarantee Requirement is satisfied, the Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, discretion, privileges, and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent
shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as the Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article 9 shall continue in effect for its benefit
in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Administrative Agent. 
  

 -144- 

 SECTION 9.10. Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any
receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or L/C
Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such
proceeding or otherwise: 
 (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid
in respect of the Loans, L/C Obligations and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any
claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under
Sections 2.03(g) and (h), 2.09 and 10.04) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and 
 (b) to collect and receive any
monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; 
 and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator,
sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments
directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Agents and their respective agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative
Agent under Sections 2.09 and 10.04. 
 Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or
consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim
of any Lender in any such proceeding. 
 SECTION 9.11. Collateral and Guaranty Matters. The Lenders irrevocably agree: 
 (a) that any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent under any Loan Document shall be
automatically released (i) upon termination of the Aggregate Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations (other than (x) obligations under Secured Hedge Agreements not yet due and payable, (y) Cash Management Obligations not
yet due and payable and (z) contingent indemnification obligations not yet accrued and payable), the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit and any other obligation (including a guarantee that is contingent in nature), (ii) at
the time the property subject to such Lien is transferred or to be transferred as part of or in connection with any transfer permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document to any Person other than Parent, Foreign Holdings, Holdings, the
Borrower or 

  

 -145- 

 
any of its Domestic Subsidiaries that are Restricted Subsidiaries, (iii) subject to Section 10.01, if the release of such Lien is approved,
authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders, or (iv) if the property subject to such Lien is owned by a Guarantor, upon release of such Guarantor from its obligations under its Guaranty pursuant to clause (c) below;

 (b) to release or subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral
Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 7.01(i); 
 (c)
that any Guarantor shall be automatically released from its obligations under the Guaranty if such Person ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of a transaction or designation permitted hereunder; provided that no such release
shall occur if such Guarantor continues to be a guarantor in respect of the High Yield Notes or any Junior Financing; 
 (d)
if any Guarantor shall cease to be a Material Subsidiary (as certified in writing by a Responsible Officer), (i) such Subsidiary shall be automatically released from its obligations under any Guaranty and (ii) any Liens granted by such
Subsidiary or Liens on the Equity Interests of such Subsidiary shall be automatically released; provided that no such release shall occur if such Subsidiary continues to be a guarantor in respect of the High Yield Notes or any Junior
Financing; and 
 (e) at the request of Parent, the Other Guarantors shall be released from their respective obligations under
any Guaranty. 
 Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative
Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty pursuant to this Section 9.11. In each case as specified in this
Section 9.11, the Administrative Agent will promptly (and each Lender irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to), at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party may
reasonably request to evidence the release or subordination of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Collateral Documents, or to evidence the release of such Guarantor from its obligations under the
Guaranty, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section 9.11. 
 SECTION 9.12. Other Agents;
Arrangers and Managers. None of the Lenders or other Persons identified on the facing page or signature pages of this Agreement as a “syndication agent,” “documentation agent”, “joint bookrunner” or
“arranger” shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Lenders or other Persons so
identified shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of the Lenders or other Persons so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement
or in taking or not taking action hereunder. 
  

 -146- 

 SECTION 9.13. Appointment of Supplemental Administrative Agents. 
 (a) It is the purpose of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that there shall be no violation of any Law of any jurisdiction denying or
restricting the right of banking corporations or associations to transact business as agent or trustee in such jurisdiction. It is recognized that in case of litigation under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and in particular in
case of the enforcement of any of the Loan Documents, or in case the Administrative Agent deems that by reason of any present or future Law of any jurisdiction it may not exercise any of the rights, powers or remedies granted herein or in any of the
other Loan Documents or take any other action which may be desirable or necessary in connection therewith, the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to appoint an additional individual or institution selected by the Administrative Agent in its
sole discretion as a separate trustee, co-trustee, administrative agent, collateral agent, administrative sub-agent or administrative co-agent (any such additional individual or institution being referred to herein individually as a
“Supplemental Administrative Agent” and collectively as “Supplemental Administrative Agents”). 
 (b) In
the event that the Administrative Agent appoints a Supplemental Administrative Agent with respect to any Collateral, (i) each and every right, power, privilege or duty expressed or intended by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents
to be exercised by or vested in or conveyed to the Administrative Agent with respect to such Collateral shall be exercisable by and vest in such Supplemental Administrative Agent to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to enable such
Supplemental Administrative Agent to exercise such rights, powers and privileges with respect to such Collateral and to perform such duties with respect to such Collateral, and every covenant and obligation contained in the Loan Documents and
necessary to the exercise or performance thereof by such Supplemental Administrative Agent shall run to and be enforceable by either the Administrative Agent or such Supplemental Administrative Agent, and (ii) the provisions of this Article 9
and of Sections 10.04 and 10.05 that refer to the Administrative Agent shall inure to the benefit of such Supplemental Administrative Agent and all references therein to the Administrative Agent shall be deemed to be references to the
Administrative Agent and/or such Supplemental Administrative Agent, as the context may require. 
 (c) Should any instrument in writing from
any Loan Party be required by any Supplemental Administrative Agent so appointed by the Administrative Agent for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to him or it such rights, powers, privileges and duties, the Borrower, Foreign
Holdings, Holdings or Parent, as applicable, shall, or shall cause such Loan Party to, execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all such instruments promptly upon request by the Administrative Agent. In case any Supplemental Administrative Agent, or
a successor thereto, shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of such Supplemental Administrative Agent, to the extent permitted by Law, shall vest in and be exercised by the
Administrative Agent until the appointment of a new Supplemental Administrative Agent.

 Miscellaneous 
 SECTION 10.01. Amendments, Etc. Except as otherwise set forth in this
Agreement, no amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and no consent to any departure by the Borrower or any other Loan Party therefrom, shall be effective unless in writing signed by the Required Lenders
and the Borrower or the applicable Loan Party, as the case may be, and each such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided that, no such amendment, waiver or
consent shall: 
 (a) extend or increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of each Lender directly
affected thereby (it being understood that a waiver of any condition precedent set forth in Section 4.02 or the waiver of any Default, mandatory prepayment or mandatory reduction of the Commitments shall not constitute an extension or increase
of any Commitment of any Lender); 
 (b) postpone any date scheduled for, or reduce the amount of, any payment of principal or
interest under Section 2.07 or 2.08 without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, it being understood that the waiver of (or amendment to the terms of) any mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans shall not constitute a
postponement of any date scheduled for the payment of principal or interest; 
 (c) reduce the principal of, or the rate of
interest specified herein on, any Loan or L/C Borrowing, or (subject to clause (iii) of the second proviso to this Section 10.01) any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the written consent of
each Lender directly affected thereby, it being understood that any change to the definition of Total Leverage Ratio or in the component definitions thereof shall not constitute a reduction in the rate of interest; provided that, only the
consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to amend the definition of “Default Rate” or to waive any obligation of the Borrower to pay interest at the Default Rate; 
 (d) change any provision of this Section 10.01, the definition of “Required Lenders” or “Pro Rata Share” or
Section 2.05(b)(v)(Y), 2.06(c), 8.04 or 2.13 without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby; 
 (e)
other than in a transaction permitted under Section 7.05 or Section 10.23, release all or substantially all of the Collateral in any transaction or series of related transactions, without the written consent of each Lender;

which any Loan is denominated of any Loan without the written consent of the Lender holding such Loans; 
  

 -148- 

 and provided further that (i) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by each L/C
Issuer in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of an L/C Issuer under this Agreement or any Letter of Credit Application relating to any Letter of Credit issued or to be issued by it; (ii) no amendment, waiver or
consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Swing Line Lender in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of the Swing Line Lender under this Agreement; (iii) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in

(iv) Section 10.07(h) may not be amended, waived or otherwise modified without the consent of each Granting Lender all or any part of whose Loans are being funded by an SPC at the time of such amendment, waiver or other modification; and
(v) the consent of Lenders holding more than 50% of any Class of Commitments shall be required with respect to any amendment that by its terms adversely affects the rights of such Class in respect of payments hereunder in a manner different
than such amendment affects other Classes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except that the Commitment of such Lender may
not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender (it being understood that any Commitments or Loans held or deemed held by any Defaulting Lender shall be excluded for a vote of the Lenders hereunder requiring any consent of the
Lenders). 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required
Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (a) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in
respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Term Loans and the Revolving Credit Loans and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and (b) to include appropriately the Lenders
holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders. 
 In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement
may be amended with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders providing the Replacement Term Loans (as defined below) to permit the refinancing of all outstanding Term Loans (“Refinanced Term
Loans”) with a replacement term loan (“Replacement Term Loans”) hereunder; provided that (a) the aggregate principal amount of such Replacement Term Loans shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of such
Refinanced Term Loans, (b) the Applicable Rate with respect to such Replacement Term Loans (or similar interest rate spread applicable to such Replacement Term Loans) shall not be higher than the Applicable Rate for such Refinanced Term Loans
(or similar interest rate spread applicable to such Refinanced Term Loans) immediately prior to such refinancing, (c) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of such Replacement Term Loans shall not be shorter than the Weighted Average Life to
Maturity of such Refinanced Term Loans at the time of such refinancing (except to the extent of nominal amortization for periods where amortization has been eliminated as a result of prepayment of the Term Loans) and (d) all other terms
applicable to such Replacement Term Loans shall be substantially identical to, or less favorable to the Lenders providing such Replacement Term Loans than, those applicable to such Refinanced Term Loans, except to the extent necessary to provide for
covenants and other terms applicable to any period after the latest final maturity of the Term Loans in effect immediately prior to such refinancing. 
  

 -149- 

 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 10.01, guarantees, collateral security
documents and related documents executed by Subsidiaries in connection with this Agreement may be in a form reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and may be, together with this Agreement, amended and waived with the consent of the
Administrative Agent at the request of the Borrower without the need to obtain the consent of any other Lender if such amendment or waiver is delivered in order (i) to comply with local Law or advice of local counsel, (ii) to cure
ambiguities or defects or (iii) to cause such guarantee, collateral security document or other document to be consistent with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
 SECTION 10.02. Notices and Other Communications; Facsimile Copies. 
 (a) General. Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices and other communications provided for hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be in writing (including by facsimile transmission).
All such written notices shall be mailed, faxed or delivered to the applicable address, facsimile number or electronic mail address, and all notices and other communications expressly permitted hereunder to be given by telephone shall be made to the
applicable telephone number, as follows: 
 (i) if to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, an L/C Issuer or the Swing Line
Lender, to the address, facsimile number, electronic mail address or telephone number specified for such Person on Schedule 10.02 or to such other address, facsimile number, electronic mail address or telephone number as shall be designated
by such party in a notice to the other parties; and 
 (ii) if to any other Lender, to the address, facsimile number,
electronic mail address or telephone number specified in its Administrative Questionnaire or to such other address, facsimile number, electronic mail address or telephone number as shall be designated by such party in a notice to the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Swing Line Lender.

 -150- 

 (b) Effectiveness of Facsimile Documents and Signatures. Loan Documents may be transmitted and/or
signed by facsimile or other electronic communication. The effectiveness of any such documents and signatures shall, subject to applicable Law, have the same force and effect as manually signed originals and shall be binding on all Loan Parties, the
Guarantors, the Agents and the Lenders. 
 (c) Reliance by Agents and Lenders. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be
entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including telephonic Committed Loan Notices and Swing Line Loan Notices) purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were
incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The Borrower shall indemnify each Agent-Related Person
and each Lender from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct. All telephonic
notices to the Administrative Agent may be recorded by the Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording. 
 SECTION 10.03. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure by any Lender or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan
Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.
The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided, and provided under each other Loan Document, are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by Law. 
 SECTION 10.04. Attorney Costs and Expenses. The Borrower agrees (a) if the Closing Date occurs, to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent,
the Syndication Agent, the Documentation Agent and the Arrangers for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, negotiation, syndication and execution of this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents, and any amendment, waiver, consent or other modification of the provisions hereof and thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated thereby are consummated), and the consummation and administration of the transactions
contemplated hereby and thereby, including all Attorney Costs of Cravath, Swaine & Moore LLP and one local and foreign counsel in each relevant jurisdiction, and (b) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent,
the Documentation Agent, the Arrangers and each Lender for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement of any rights or remedies under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents
(including all such costs and expenses incurred during any legal proceeding, including any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law, and including all Attorney Costs of counsel to the Administrative Agent). The foregoing costs and expenses shall
include all reasonable search, filing, recording and title insurance charges and fees related thereto, and other (reasonable, in the case of Section 10.04(a)) and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Agent. The agreements in this
Section 10.04 shall survive the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and repayment of all other Obligations. All amounts due under this Section 10.04 shall be paid within ten (10) Business Days of receipt by the Borrower of an
invoice relating thereto setting forth such expenses in reasonable detail. If any Loan Party or Guarantor fails to pay when due any costs, expenses or other amounts payable by it hereunder or under any Loan Document, such amount may be paid on
behalf of such Loan Party or such Guarantor by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion. 
  

 -151- 

 SECTION 10.05. Indemnification by the Borrower. Whether or not the transactions contemplated
hereby are consummated, the Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless each Agent-Related Person, each Lender and their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, counsel, agents, trustees, investment advisors and attorneys-in-fact
(collectively the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements (including Attorney Costs) of any kind
or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out of or in connection with (a) the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance or administration
of any Loan Document or any other agreement, letter or instrument delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, (b) any Commitment, Loan or Letter of Credit or
the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by an L/C Issuer to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such
Letter of Credit), or (c) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property currently or formerly owned or operated by the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any other Loan Party, or any Environmental Liability
related in any way to the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any other Loan Party, or (d) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory
(including any investigation of, preparation for, or defense of any pending or threatened claim, investigation, litigation or proceeding) and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto (all the foregoing, collectively, the
“Indemnified Liabilities”), in all cases, whether or not caused by or arising, in whole or in part, out of the negligence of the Indemnitee; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the
extent that such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulted from (x) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or of any
affiliate, director, officer, employee, counsel, agent or attorney-in-fact of such Indemnitee or (y) a material breach of the Loan Documents by such Indemnitee or of any affiliate, director, officer, employee, counsel, agent or attorney-in-fact
of such Indemnitee. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of any information or other materials obtained through IntraLinks or other similar information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement,
nor shall any Indemnitee or any Loan Party have any liability for any special, punitive, indirect or consequential damages relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or arising out of its activities in connection herewith or therewith
(whether before or after the Closing Date). In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 10.05 applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or
proceeding is brought by any Loan Party, its directors, stockholders or creditors or an Indemnitee or any other Person, whether or not any Indemnitee is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not any of the transactions contemplated hereunder or
under any of the other Loan Documents is consummated. All amounts due under this Section 10.05 shall be paid within ten (10) Business Days after demand therefor; provided, however, that such Indemnitee shall promptly refund
such amount to the extent that there is a final judicial or arbitral determination that such Indemnitee was not entitled to indemnification or contribution 

  

 -152- 

 
rights with respect to such payment pursuant to the express terms of this Section 10.05. The agreements in this Section 10.05 shall survive the
resignation of the Administrative Agent, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations. 
 SECTION 10.06. Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower is made to any Agent or any Lender, or any Agent
or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement
entered into by such Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the
obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the
Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share of any amount so recovered from or repaid by any Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight
Rate from time to time in effect. 
 SECTION 10.07. Successors and Assigns. 
 (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns
permitted hereby, except that none of Parent, Foreign Holdings, Holdings or the Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender and no Lender may assign or
otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.07(e), (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a
security interest subject to the restrictions of Section 10.07(g) or (iv) to an SPC in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.07(h) (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void).
Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in Section 10.07(e) and,
to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 
 (b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees (“Assignees”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a
portion of its Commitment and the Loans (including for purposes of this Section 10.07(b), participations in L/C Obligations and in Swing Line Loans) at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed, it being understood that the Borrower shall have the right to withhold its consent if the Borrower would be required to obtain the consent of, or make a filing or registration with, a Governmental Agency) of: 
  

 -153- 

 (A) the Borrower, provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for
an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund or, if an Event of Default under Section 8.01(a), (f) or (g) has occurred and is continuing, any Assignee; 
 (B) the Administrative Agent; provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment of all or
any portion of a Term Loan to another Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; 
 (C) each Principal L/C Issuer
at the time of such assignment, provided that no consent of the Principal L/C Issuers shall be required for any assignment of a Term Loan or any assignment to an Agent or an Affiliate of an Agent; and 
 (D) in the case of any assignment of any of the Dollar Revolving Credit Facility, the Swing Line Lender. 
 (ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions: 
 (A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire
remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans of any Class, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to
such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000 (in the case of the Revolving Credit Facilities) or $1,000,000 (in the case of a Term Loan) unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
otherwise consents, provided that (1) no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default under Section 8.01(a), (f) or (g) has occurred and is continuing and (2) such amounts shall be aggregated
in respect of each Lender and its Affiliates or Approved Funds, if any; 
 (B) the parties to each assignment shall execute
and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided that only one such fee shall be payable in the event of simultaneous assignments from any Lender or its
Approved Funds to one or more other Approved Funds; and 
 (C) the Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. 
 This paragraph (b) shall not prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a
portion of its rights and obligations among separate Facilities on a non-pro rata basis. 
 (c) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof
by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 10.07(d), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest
assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its
obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering 

  

 -154- 

 
all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be
entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04, 3.05, 10.04 and 10.05 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment). Upon request, and the surrender by the assigning Lender of its Note, the
Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this clause (c) shall be treated for purposes of
this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 10.07(e). 
 (d)
The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names
and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and related interest amounts) of the Loans, L/C Obligations (specifying the Unreimbursed Amounts), L/C Borrowings and amounts due under Section 2.03, owing to, each
Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agents and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is
recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, any Agent and any Lender, at any
reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 
 (e) Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to,
the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including
all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Lender’s participations in L/C Obligations and/or Swing Line Loans) owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain
unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Agents and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such
Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not,
without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 10.01 that directly affects such Participant. Subject to Section 10.07(f), the Borrower agrees that each
Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01 (subject to the requirements of Section 10.15), 3.04 and 3.05 (through the applicable Lender) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by
assignment pursuant to Section 10.07(c). To the extent permitted by applicable Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.09 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be
subject to Section 2.13 as though it were a Lender. 
  

 -155- 

 (f) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.01, 3.04 or
3.05 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent.

 (g) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including
under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations
hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 
 (h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (an
“SPC”) the option to provide all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any
SPC to fund any Loan, and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to make all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. Each party hereto hereby
agrees that (i) neither the grant to any SPC nor the exercise by any SPC of such option shall increase the costs or expenses or otherwise increase or change the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement (including its obligations under
Section 3.01, 3.04 or 3.05), (ii) no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement for which a Lender would be liable, and (iii) the Granting Lender shall for all purposes, including the
approval of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of any Loan Document, remain the lender of record hereunder. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent,
and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without prior consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and with the payment of a
processing fee of $3,500, assign all or any portion of its right to receive payment with respect to any Loan to the Granting Lender and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its funding of Loans to any
rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety or Guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC. 
 (i)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (1) any Lender may in accordance with applicable Law create a security interest in all or any portion of the Loans owing to it and the Note, if any, held by it and (2) any Lender
that is a Fund may create a security interest in all or any portion of the Loans owing to it and the Note, if any, held by it to the trustee for holders of obligations owed, or securities issued, by such Fund as security for such obligations or
securities; provided that unless and until such trustee actually becomes a Lender in compliance with the other provisions of this Section 10.07, (i) no such pledge shall release the pledging Lender from any of its obligations under
the Loan Documents and (ii) such trustee shall not be entitled to exercise any of the rights of a Lender under the Loan Documents even though such trustee may have acquired ownership rights with respect to the pledged interest through
foreclosure or otherwise. 
  

 -156- 

 (j) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender
may, upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the Borrower and the Lenders, resign as an L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender, respectively; provided that on or prior to the expiration of such 30-day period with respect to such resignation,
the relevant L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender shall have identified, in consultation with the Borrower, a successor L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender willing to accept its appointment as successor L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as applicable. In
the event of any such resignation of an L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender, the Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders willing to accept such appointment a successor L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender hereunder; provided
that no failure by the Borrower to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of the relevant L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender, as the case may be. If an L/C Issuer resigns as an L/C Issuer, it shall retain all the rights and
obligations of an L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as an L/C Issuer and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make
Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 2.03(c)). If the Swing Line Lender resigns as Swing Line Lender, it shall retain all the rights of the Swing Line Lender provided for hereunder with respect
to Swing Line Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in outstanding Swing Line Loans pursuant to
Section 2.04(c). 
 SECTION 10.08. Confidentiality. Each of the Agents and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of
the Information and to not use or disclose such information, except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees, trustees, investment advisors and agents, including
accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential); (b) to
the extent requested by any Governmental Authority; (c) to the extent required by applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process; (d) to any other party to this Agreement; (e) subject to an agreement
containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 10.08 (or as may otherwise be reasonably acceptable to the Borrower), to any pledgee referred to in Section 10.07(g), counterparty to a Swap Contract, Eligible Assignee
of or Participant in, or any prospective Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement; (f) with the written consent of the Borrower; (g) to the extent such Information becomes publicly
available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.08; (h) to any Governmental Authority or examiner (including the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any other similar organization) regulating any Lender;
(i) to any rating agency when required by it (it being understood that, prior to any such disclosure, such rating agency shall undertake to preserve the confidentiality of any Information relating to the Loan Parties received by it from such
Lender); or (j) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder.
In addition, the Agents and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry, and service providers to the Agents and the
Lenders in connection with the administration and management of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Commitments, and the Credit Extensions. For the 

  

 -157- 

 
purposes of this Section 10.08, “Information” means all information received from any Loan Party or its Affiliates or its
Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees, trustees, investment advisors or agents, relating to Parent, Holding, the Borrower or any of their subsidiaries or its business, other than any such information that is publicly available to any Agent
or any Lender prior to disclosure by any Loan Party other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.08; provided that, in the case of information received from a Loan Party after the date hereof, such information is clearly
identified at the time of delivery as confidential or (ii) is delivered pursuant to Section 6.01, 6.02 or 6.03 hereof. 
 SECTION
10.09. Setoff. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by Law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender and its Affiliates and each L/C Issuer and its Affiliates is authorized
at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to the Borrower or any other Loan Party, any such notice being waived by the Borrower (on its own behalf and on behalf of each Loan Party and its Subsidiaries) to the fullest extent permitted
by applicable Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held by, and other Indebtedness at any time owing by, such Lender and its Affiliates or such L/C Issuer and its
Affiliates, as the case may be, to or for the credit or the account of the respective Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries against any and all Obligations owing to such Lender and its Affiliates or such L/C Issuer and its Affiliates hereunder or
under any other Loan Document, now or hereafter existing, irrespective of whether or not such Agent or such Lender or Affiliate shall have made demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such Obligations may be contingent or
unmatured or denominated in a currency different from that of the applicable deposit or Indebtedness. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Lender or its Affiliates and no L/C Issuer or its Affiliates shall have a right to
set off and apply any deposits held or other Indebtedness owning by such Lender or its Affiliates or such L/C Issuer or its Affiliates, as the case may be, to or for the credit or the account of any Subsidiary of a Loan Party which is not a
“United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code unless such Subsidiary is not a direct or indirect subsidiary of Holdings. Each Lender and L/C Issuer agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent after any such set off and application made by such Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be; provided, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of the
Administrative Agent, each Lender and each L/C Issuer under this Section 10.09 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that the Administrative Agent, such Lender and such L/C Issuer may have. 

SECTION 10.10. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed
to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If any Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum
Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by an Agent or a Lender exceeds the
Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof,
and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder. 
  

 -158- 

 SECTION 10.11. Counterparts. This Agreement and each other Loan Document may be executed in one or
more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery by telecopier of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement and each other Loan
Document shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement and such other Loan Document. The Agents may also require that any such documents and signatures delivered by telecopier be confirmed by a manually signed
original thereof; provided that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any document or signature delivered by telecopier. 
 SECTION 10.12. Integration. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, comprises the complete and integrated agreement of the parties on the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all
prior agreements, written or oral, on such subject matter. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control; provided that the inclusion
of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Agents or the Lenders in any other Loan Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement. Each Loan Document was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and
shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof. 
 SECTION 10.13.
Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the
execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by each Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by any Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding
that any Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Credit Extension, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied or
any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding. 
 SECTION 10.14. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby. The invalidity of a provision
in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 SECTION 10.15. Tax
Forms. 
 (a) (i) Each Lender and Agent that is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of
the Code (each, a “Foreign Lender”) shall, to the extent it may lawfully do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, on or prior to the date which is ten (10) Business Days after the Closing Date (or upon
accepting an assignment of an interest herein), two duly signed, properly completed copies of either IRS Form W-8BEN or any successor thereto (relating to such Foreign Lender and entitling it to an exemption from, or 
  

 -159- 

 
reduction of, United States withholding tax on all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by the Borrower or any other Loan Party pursuant to this
Agreement or any other Loan Document) or IRS Form W-8ECI or any successor thereto (relating to all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by the Borrower or any other Loan Party pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document) or such
other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that such Foreign Lender is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of, United States federal withholding tax, including any exemption pursuant to
Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, and in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming such an exemption under Section 881(c) of the Code, a certificate that establishes in writing to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that such Foreign
Lender is not (i) a “bank” as defined in Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (ii) a 10-percent stockholder within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code, or (iii) a controlled foreign corporation related to
the Borrower with the meaning of Section 864(d) of the Code. Thereafter and from time to time, each such Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it may lawfully do so, (A) promptly submit to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent such
additional duly completed and signed copies of one or more of such forms or certificates (or such successor forms or certificates as shall be adopted from time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities) as may then be available under
then current United States Laws and regulations to avoid, or such evidence as is reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of any available exemption from, or reduction of, United States federal withholding taxes in
respect of all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by the Borrower or other Loan Party pursuant to this Agreement, or any other Loan Document, in each case, (1) on or before the date that any such form, certificate or other evidence
expires or becomes obsolete, (2) after the occurrence of a change in the Lender’s circumstances requiring a change in the most recent form, certificate or evidence previously delivered by it to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and
(3) from time to time thereafter if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, and (B) promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of any change in the Lender’s circumstances which would modify or
render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction. 
 (ii) Each Foreign Lender, to the extent it does not act or ceases to act for its own
account with respect to any portion of any sums paid or payable to such Foreign Lender under any of the Loan Documents shall, to the extent it may lawfully do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on the date when such Foreign
Lender ceases to act for its own account with respect to any portion of any such sums paid or payable, and at such other times as may be necessary in the determination of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent (in either case, in the reasonable
exercise of its discretion), (A) two duly signed completed copies of the forms or statements required to be provided by such Foreign Lender as set forth above, to establish the portion of any such sums paid or payable with respect to which such
Foreign Lender acts for its own account that is not subject to United States federal withholding tax, and (B) two duly signed completed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY (or any successor thereto), together with any information such Foreign Lender is
required to transmit with such form, and any other certificate or statement of exemption required under the Code, to establish that such Foreign Lender is not acting for its own account with respect to a portion of any such sums payable to such
Foreign Lender. 
 (iii) The Borrower shall not be required to pay any additional amount or any indemnity payment under Section 3.01 to
(A) any Foreign Lender if such Foreign Lender shall 

  

 -160- 

 
have failed to satisfy the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.15(a), or (B) any U.S. Lender if such U.S. Lender shall have failed to satisfy
the provisions of Section 10.15(b); provided that (i) if such Lender shall have satisfied the requirement of this or Section 10.15(b), as applicable, on the date such Lender became a Lender or ceased to act for its own account
with respect to any payment under any of the Loan Documents, nothing in this Section 10.15(a) or Section 10.15(b) shall relieve the Borrower of its obligation to pay any amounts pursuant to Section 3.01 in the event that, as a result
of any change in any applicable Law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order, or any change in the interpretation, administration or application thereof, such Lender is no longer properly entitled to deliver forms, certificates or other
evidence at a subsequent date establishing the fact that such Lender or other Person for the account of which such Lender receives any sums payable under any of the Loan Documents is not subject to withholding or is subject to withholding at a
reduced rate and (ii) nothing in this Section 10.15(a) shall relieve the Borrower of its obligation to pay any amounts pursuant to Section 3.01 in the event that the requirements of 10.15(a)(ii) have not been satisfied if the Borrower
is entitled, under applicable Law, to rely on any applicable forms and statements required to be provided under this Section 10.15 by the Foreign Lender that does not act or has ceased to act for its own account under any of the Loan Documents.

 (iv) The Administrative Agent may deduct and withhold any taxes required by any Laws to be deducted and withheld from any payment under
any of the Loan Documents. 
 (b) Each Lender and Agent that is a “United States person” within the meaning of
Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (each, a “U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower two duly signed, properly completed copies of IRS Form W-9, or any successor thereto, certifying that such U.S.
Lender is entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax (i) on or prior to the Closing Date (or on or prior to the date it becomes a party to this Agreement), (ii) on or before the date that such form expires or
becomes obsolete, (iii) after the occurrence of a change in the Lender’s circumstances requiring a change in the most recent form previously delivered by it to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and (iv) from time to time
thereafter if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent. If such U.S. Lender fails to deliver such forms, then the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to such U.S. Lender an amount equivalent to the applicable
backup withholding tax imposed by the Code. 
 SECTION 10.16. GOVERNING LAW. 
 (a) THIS AGREEMENT AND EACH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (EXCEPT AS
OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PROVIDED THEREIN). 
 (b) ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING UNDER ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR
RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO OR ANY OF THEM WITH RESPECT TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED THERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF
NEW YORK SITTING IN 

  

 -161- 

 
NEW YORK CITY OR OF THE UNITED STATES FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF SUCH STATE, AND BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE BORROWER, FOREIGN
HOLDINGS, HOLDINGS, PARENT EACH AGENT AND EACH LENDER CONSENTS, FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THOSE COURTS. THE BORROWER, FOREIGN HOLDINGS, HOLDINGS, PARENT, EACH AGENT AND EACH LENDER IRREVOCABLY
WAIVES ANY OBJECTION, INCLUDING ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OR BASED ON THE GROUNDS OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS, WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN SUCH JURISDICTION IN RESPECT OF ANY LOAN DOCUMENT
OR OTHER DOCUMENT RELATED THERETO. 
 SECTION 10.17. WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY EXPRESSLY
WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING UNDER ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO OR ANY OF THEM WITH RESPECT TO ANY LOAN
DOCUMENT, OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED THERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER FOUNDED IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE; AND EACH PARTY HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF
ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY, AND THAT ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION 10.17 WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE SIGNATORIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF
THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. 
 SECTION 10.18. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed
by the Borrower, Foreign Holdings, Holdings and Parent and the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by each Lender, Swing Line Lender and L/C Issuer that each such Lender, Swing Line Lender and L/C Issuer has executed it and thereafter
shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, each Agent and each Lender and their respective successors and assigns, except that no Borrower shall have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the
prior written consent of the Lenders except as permitted by Section 7.04. 
 SECTION 10.19. Judgment Currency. If, for the
purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or any other Loan Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking
procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of each Borrower in respect of any such sum due from it to the
Administrative Agent or the Lenders hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the
applicable provisions of this Agreement (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency,
the 

  

 -162- 

 
Administrative Agent may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the
Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent from any Borrower in the Agreement Currency, such Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the
Administrative Agent or the Person to whom such obligation was owing against such loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent in such currency, the Administrative
Agent agrees to return the amount of any excess to such Borrower (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable Law). 
 SECTION 10.20. Lender Action. Each Lender agrees that it shall not take or institute any actions or proceedings, judicial or otherwise, for any right or remedy against any Loan Party or any other obligor under any of the Loan
Documents or the Secured Hedge Agreements (including the exercise of any right of setoff, rights on account of any banker’s lien or similar claim or other rights of self-help), or institute any actions or proceedings, or otherwise commence any
remedial procedures, with respect to any Collateral or any other property of any such Loan Party, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. The provision of this Section 10.20 are for the sole benefit of the Lenders and
shall not afford any right to, or constitute a defense available to, any Loan Party. 
 SECTION 10.21. USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender
hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other
information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act. 
 SECTION 10.22. Agent for
Service of Process. The Borrower agrees that promptly following request by the Administrative Agent it shall cause each Material Foreign Subsidiary or for whose account a Letter of Credit is issued to appoint and maintain an agent reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent to receive service of process in New York City on behalf of such Material Foreign Subsidiary. 
 SECTION 10.23. Foreign Reorganization. 
 (a) So long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing
or would result therefrom, Parent and any Restricted Subsidiary shall be permitted to take any and all actions necessary to consummate the Foreign Reorganization. In the event that any of the Collateral shall be transferred by any Loan Party in
connection with the Foreign Reorganization, the Liens granted hereunder or under the other Loan Documents on such Collateral shall automatically be discharged and released and all rights to such Collateral shall revert to the applicable Loan Party
without any further action by the Collateral Agent or any other Person; provided that such Loan Party shall cause any Transferred Foreign Subsidiary or Foreign Acquisition Co., as applicable, to take such actions described in the definition
of “Foreign Reorganization” as a condition to such release. Without prejudice to the foregoing, upon the request of the applicable Loan Party, the Collateral Agent, at the expense of such Loan Party, shall promptly execute and deliver to
such Loan Party, all releases, termination statements, 

  

 -163- 

 
stock certificates, any certificated securities or any other documents necessary or desirable for the release of the Liens on such Collateral. 
 (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or in any other Loan Document, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, in the event that the Foreign Reorganization is not consummated and to the extent that any Permitted Intercompany Transfer has occurred (or will occur concurrently with such release described herein), any Other Parent
Guarantor, Parent and Foreign Holdings, as applicable, shall (x) be automatically released from their respective obligations under the Guaranty, (y) be automatically released from any and all obligations under the Loan Documents
(including, without limitation, any obligation to comply with the covenants set forth herein) and any reference to “Parent” or “Foreign Holdings” herein shall be construed as a reference to the Successor Person mutatis
mutandis, and (z) any Liens granted hereunder or under the other Loan Documents by Parent and Foreign Holdings on any Collateral shall automatically be discharged and released, as applicable, without any further action by the Collateral
Agent or any other Person. In connection with the foregoing, upon the request of the Borrower, the Collateral Agent, at the expense of Borrower, shall promptly execute and deliver to any Other Parent Guarantor, Parent, Foreign Holdings or Holdings,
as applicable, all releases, termination statements, stock certificates, any certificated securities or any other documents necessary or desirable for the release of any Other Parent Guarantor, Parent and Foreign Holdings from their obligations
under the Loan Documents and the release of the Liens on such Collateral. For the avoidance of doubt, after any such reorganization as contemplated in this Section 10.23(b) shall have occurred, the Foreign Reorganization shall not be permitted
pursuant to Section 10.23(a) or otherwise.
