 FIVE YEAR COMPETITIVE ADVANCE AND REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”)
dated as of September 11, 2001, among BRISTOL-MYERS SQUIBB COMPANY, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), the BORROWING SUBSIDIARIES (as defined herein), the lenders listed in Schedule 2.1 (the “Lenders”), ABN

and CITIBANK, N.A., as administrative agent for the Lenders (in such capacity, “Citibank”; Chase and Citibank are referred to herein individually as an “Administrative Agent” and collectively as the “Administrative
Agents”) and as competitive advance facility agent (in such capacity, the “Advance Agent”). 
  
 The Company has requested that the Lenders, on the terms and subject to the conditions herein set forth (i) extend credit to the Company and the
applicable Borrowing Subsidiaries to enable them to borrow on a standby revolving credit basis on and after the date hereof and at any time and from time to time prior to the Maturity Date (such term and each other capitalized term used but not
defined herein having the meaning assigned to it in Article I) a principal amount not in excess of $500,000,000 and (ii) provide a procedure pursuant to which the Company and the Borrowing Subsidiaries may invite the Lenders to bid on an uncommitted
basis on short-term borrowings by the Company or the applicable Borrowing Subsidiary. The proceeds of such borrowings are to be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes of the Company and its subsidiaries (other than funding
hostile acquisitions), including commercial paper backup and repurchase of shares. The Lenders are willing to extend such credit on the terms and subject to the conditions herein set forth. 
  
 Accordingly, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
  
 ARTICLE I  
 DEFINITIONS 
  
 SECTION 1.1. Defined Terms. As used in this Agreement, the following terms have the meanings specified below: 
  
 “ABR”, when used in reference to any Loan or Borrowing, refers to whether such Loan, or the Loans comprising such Borrowing, are bearing
interest at a rate determined by reference to the Alternate Base Rate. 
  
 “Administrative Fees” shall have the meaning assigned to such term in Section 2.11(b). 
  
 “Administrative Questionnaire” shall mean an administrative questionnaire delivered by a Lender pursuant to Section 8.4(e) in the form of
Exhibit D. 
  
 “Affiliate” shall mean, when used
with respect to a specified Person, another Person that directly, or indirectly, Controls or is Controlled by or is under common Control with the Person specified. 

 “Alternate Base Rate” shall mean for any day, a rate per annum equal to the greatest of
(a) the rate of interest per annum publicly announced from time to time by Citibank as its base rate in effect at its principal office in New York City, (b) 1/2 of one percent above the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (c) the Base CD Rate in effect
for such day plus 1%. If for any reason Citibank shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that it is unable to ascertain the Base CD Rate or Federal Funds Effective Rate, or both, specified in clause (b)
or (c), respectively, of the first sentence of this definition, for any reason, including, without limitation, the inability or failure of Citibank to obtain sufficient quotations in accordance with the terms hereof, the Alternate Base Rate shall be
determined without regard to clause (b) or (c), or both, of the first sentence of this definition until the circumstances giving rise to such inability no longer exist. Any change in the Alternate Base Rate shall be effective on the effective date
of any change in such rate. 
  
 “Alternative
Currency” shall mean at any time, a common currency of the European monetary union and any currency (other than Dollars) that is readily available, freely traded and convertible into Dollars in the London market and as to which a Dollar
Equivalent can be calculated. 
  
 “Applicable
Percentage” shall mean, with respect to any Lender, the percentage of the total Commitments represented by such Lender’s Commitment. If the Commitments have terminated or expired, Applicable Percentage shall mean, with respect to any
Lender, the percentage of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans represented by the aggregate outstanding principal amount of each Lender’s Loans. 
  
 “Applicable Rate” shall mean on any date, with respect to any Eurocurrency Revolving Loan, or with respect
to the facility fees payable hereunder, as the case may be, the applicable rate per annum set forth below under the caption “Applicable Rate for Eurocurrency Revolving Loans” or “Applicable Rate for Facility Fees”, as the case
may be, based upon the Ratings by Moody’s and S&P, respectively, in effect on such date: 
  

	 S&P/Moody’s Rating of the Company’s
 senior unsecured non-credit-enhanced long-
 term debt

	  	Applicable Rate for
Eurocurrency Revolving Loans
(in Basis Points)

	  	Applicable Rate for
Facility Fees
(in Basis Points)

	 AA/Aa2 or better
	  	10.0	  	5.0
	 A+/A1 or better
	  	18.0	  	7.0
	 A-/A3 or better
	  	31.0	  	9.0
	 BBB/Baa2 or better
	  	62.5	  	12.5
	 BBB-/Baa3 or worse
	  	105.0	  	20.0

  
 The higher Rating
shall determine the Applicable Rate unless the S&P and Moody’s Ratings are more than one level apart, in which case the Rating one level below the higher Rating shall be determinative. In the event that the Company’s senior unsecured
non-credit-enhanced long-term debt is rated by only one of S&P and Moody’s, then that single Rating shall be determinative. The Company hereby agrees that at all times it shall maintain a senior unsecured non-credit-enhanced long-term debt
rating from either S&P or Moody’s.

 SECTION 2.1. Commitments. Subject to the terms and
conditions set forth herein, each Lender agrees to make Revolving Loans to the Company and any Borrowing Subsidiary which is organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America or any State thereof from time to time during the
Availability Period in Dollars in an aggregate principal amount that will not result in (a) such Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding such Lender’s Commitment or (b) the sum of the total Revolving Credit Exposures plus the total
Competitive Loan Exposures exceeding the total Commitments. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Company and each applicable Borrowing Subsidiary may borrow, prepay and reborrow Revolving Loans.
 
  
 SECTION 2.2. Loans and Borrowings. (a) Each
Revolving Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Revolving Loans made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments. Each Competitive Loan shall be made in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section
2.4. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided that the Commitments and Competitive Bids of the Lenders are several and no Lender shall be
responsible for any other Lender’s failure to make Loans as required. 
  
 (b) Subject to Section 2.13, (i) each Revolving Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Eurocurrency Loans as the Company (on its own behalf or on behalf of any other applicable Borrower) may request in
accordance herewith, and (ii) each Competitive Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of Eurocurrency Loans or Fixed Rate Loans as the Company (on its own behalf or on behalf of any other Borrower) may request in accordance herewith. Each Lender at
its option may make any Eurocurrency Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of any Borrower to repay such Loan in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
  
 (c) At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $10,000,000. At the time that each ABR
Revolving Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $10,000,000; provided that an ABR Revolving Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the
entire unused balance of the total Commitments. Each Competitive Borrowing denominated in Dollars shall be in an aggregate amount that is an 

  

 15 

 
integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $10,000,000, and each Competitive Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency shall be in an aggregate
principal amount that is not less than the Dollar Equivalent of $10,000,000. Borrowings of more than one Type and Class may be outstanding at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of 15 Eurocurrency
Revolving Borrowings outstanding. 
  
 (d)
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company (on its own behalf or on behalf of any other Borrower) shall not be entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with
respect thereto would end after the Maturity Date.

Each such telephonic Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to Citibank of a written Borrowing Request in the form of Exhibit A-5. Each such telephonic and written Borrowing Request shall

 (v) the location and number of the account of the Company or the other applicable Borrowers to which funds are to be disbursed, which

 (vi) the applicable Borrower. 
  
 If no election as to the Type of
Revolving Borrowing is specified, then the requested Revolving Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing, then the Company shall be deemed to have selected
an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, Citibank shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be made as
part of the requested Borrowing. 
  
 SECTION 2.4. Competitive
Bid Procedure. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, from time to time during the Availability Period the Company (on its 

  

 16 

 
own behalf or on behalf of any other Borrower) may request Competitive Bids and the Company (on its own behalf and on behalf of any other Borrowers) may (but
shall not have any obligation to) accept Competitive Bids and borrow Competitive Loans; provided that no Competitive Loan may be requested that would result in the sum of the total Revolving Credit Exposures plus the total Competitive Loan
Exposures exceeding the total Commitments. To request Competitive Bids, the Company (on its own behalf and on behalf of any other Borrowers) shall hand deliver or telecopy to the Advance Agent a duly completed Competitive Bid Request in the form of
Exhibit A-1 hereto, to be received by the Advance Agent, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, four Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing and, in the case of a Fixed Rate Borrowing,
not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the date of the proposed Borrowing. A Competitive Bid Request that does not conform substantially to Exhibit A-1 may be rejected in the Advance Agent’s sole discretion, and
the Advance Agent shall promptly notify the Company of such rejection by telecopy. Each Competitive Bid Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.2: 
  
 (i) the aggregate amount of the requested Borrowing; 
  
 (ii) the Currency of the requested Borrowing; 
  
 (iii) the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business

 (vi) the location and number of the account of the Company or any other Borrower to which funds are to be
disbursed, which shall comply with the requirements of Section 2.6; and 
  
 (vii) the applicable Borrower. 
  
 If no election
as to the Currency of a Borrowing is specified in any Competitive Bid Request, then the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing in Dollars. Promptly following receipt of a Competitive Bid Request in accordance with this
Section, the Advance Agent shall notify the Lenders of the details thereof by telecopy, inviting the Lenders to submit Competitive Bids. 
  
 (b) Each Lender may (but shall not have any obligation to) make one or more Competitive Bids to such Borrower in response to a Competitive
Bid Request. Each Competitive Bid by a Lender must be received by the Advance Agent by telecopy, in the form of Exhibit A-3 hereto, in the case of a Eurocurrency Competitive Borrowing, not later than 9:30 a.m., New York City time, three Business
Days before the proposed date of such Competitive Borrowing, and in the case of a Fixed Rate Borrowing, not later than 9:30 a.m., New York City time, on the proposed date of such Competitive Borrowing. Competitive Bids 

  

 17 

 
that do not conform substantially to the format of Exhibit A-3 may be rejected by the Advance Agent, and the Advance Agent shall notify the applicable Lender
as promptly as practicable. Each Competitive Bid shall specify (i) the principal amount of the Competitive Loan or Loans that the Lender is willing to make (which, in the case of a Competitive Borrowing denominated in Dollars, shall be a minimum of
$5,000,000 and an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and, in the case of a Competitive Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency, shall be a minimum principal amount the Dollar Equivalent of which is equal to $5,000,000, and which may equal the
entire principal amount of the Competitive Borrowing request by such Borrower), (ii) the Competitive Bid Rate or Rates at which the Lender is prepared to make such Loan or Loans (expressed as a percentage rate per annum in the form of a decimal to
no more than four decimal places) and (iii) the Interest Period applicable to each such Loan and the last day thereof. 
  
 (c) The Advance Agent shall promptly notify such Borrower by telecopy of the Competitive Bid Rate and the principal amount specified in
each Competitive Bid and the identity of the Lender that shall have made such Competitive Bid. 
  
 (d) Subject only to the provisions of this paragraph, such Borrower may accept or reject any Competitive Bid. Such Borrower shall notify
the Advance Agent by telephone, confirmed by telecopy in the form of a Competitive Bid Accept/Reject Letter, whether and to what extent it has decided to accept or reject each Competitive Bid, in the case of a Eurocurrency Competitive Borrowing, not
later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of the proposed Competitive Borrowing, and in the case of a Fixed Rate Borrowing, not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the proposed date of the Competitive
Borrowing; provided that (i) the failure of such Borrower to give such notice shall be deemed to be a rejection of each Competitive Bid, (ii) such Borrower shall not accept a Competitive Bid made at a particular Competitive Bid Rate if the
Company rejects a Competitive Bid made at a lower Competitive Bid Rate, (iii) the aggregate amount of the Competitive Bids accepted by such Borrower shall not exceed the aggregate amount of the requested Competitive Borrowing specified in the
related Competitive Bid Request, (iv) to the extent necessary to comply with clause (iii) above, such Borrower may accept Competitive Bids at the same Competitive Bid Rate in part, which acceptance, in the case of multiple Competitive Bids at such
Competitive Bid Rate, shall be made pro rata in accordance with the amount of each such Competitive Bid, and (v) except pursuant to clause (iv) above, no Competitive Bid shall be accepted for a Competitive Loan unless such Competitive Loan is, in
the case of a Competitive Borrowing denominated in Dollars, in a minimum principal amount of $5,000,000 and an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and, in the case of a Competitive Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency, in a minimum principal
amount the Dollar Equivalent of which is $5,000,000; provided further that if a Competitive Loan must be in an amount less than $5,000,000 or an amount in an Alternative Currency of which the Dollar Equivalent is less than $5,000,000 because
of the provisions of clause (iv) above, such Competitive Loan may be for a minimum of $5,000,000 or an amount in an Alternative Currency of which the Dollar Equivalent is $5,000,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000,000 thereof, and in calculating
the pro rata allocation of acceptances of portions of multiple Competitive Bids at a particular Competitive Bid Rate pursuant to clause (iv) the amounts shall be rounded to integral multiples of $1,000,000 in a manner which shall be in the
discretion of such Borrower. A notice given by such Borrower pursuant to this paragraph (d) shall be irrevocable. 
  

 18 

 (e) The Advance Agent shall promptly notify each bidding Lender by telecopy whether or
not its Competitive Bid has been accepted (and, if so, the amount and Competitive Bid Rate so accepted), and each successful bidder will thereupon become bound, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, to make the Competitive Loan in respect of
which its Competitive Bid has been accepted. 
  
 (f) If the Advance Agent shall elect to submit a Competitive Bid in its capacity as a Lender, it shall submit such Competitive Bid directly to the Company at least one quarter of an hour earlier than the time by which the other Lenders are
required to submit their Competitive Bids to the Advance Agent pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. 
  
 (g) All notices required by this Section 2.4 shall be given in accordance with Section 8.1. 
  
 SECTION 2.5. Extension of Maturity Date. 
  
 (a) The Company may, by sending an Extension Letter to
Citibank (in which case Citibank shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Lenders), during the period of not less than 30 days and not more than 60 days prior to any anniversary of the Closing Date, request that the Lenders extend the Maturity
Date at the time in effect to the first anniversary of the Maturity Date then in effect. Each Lender, acting in its sole discretion, shall, by notice to Citibank given not more than 20 days after the date of the Extension Letter, advise Citibank in
writing whether or not such Lender agrees to such extension (each Lender that so advises Citibank that it will not extend the Maturity Date, being referred to herein as a “Non-extending Lender”); provided that any Lender that does
not advise Citibank by the 20th day after the date of the Extension Letter shall be deemed to be a Non-extending Lender. The election of any Lender to agree to such extension shall not obligate any other Lender to agree. 
  
 (b) (i) If Lenders holding Commitments that aggregate at
least 51% of the total Commitments on the 20th day after the date of the Extension Letter shall not have agreed to extend the Maturity Date, then the Maturity Date shall not be so extended and the outstanding principal balance of all Loans and other
amounts payable hereunder shall be payable on such Maturity Date. 
  
 (ii) If (and only if) Lenders holding Commitments that aggregate at least 51% of the total Commitments on the 20th day after the date of the Extension Letter shall have agreed to extend the Maturity Date, then the
Maturity Date applicable to the Lenders that shall so have agreed shall be the first anniversary of the current Maturity Date. In the event of such extension, the Commitment of each Non-extending Lender shall terminate on the Maturity Date in effect
prior to such extension, all Loans and other amounts payable hereunder to such Non-extending Lenders shall become due and payable on such Maturity Date and the total Commitment of the Lenders hereunder shall be reduced by the Commitments of
Non-extending Lenders so terminated on such Maturity Date. 
  
 (c) In the event that the conditions of clause (ii) of paragraph (b) above have been satisfied, the Company shall have the right on or before the Maturity Date in effect prior to 

  

 19 

 
the requested extension, at its own expense, to require any Non-extending Lender to transfer and assign without recourse (except as to title and the absence
of Liens created by it) (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 8.4) all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more banks or other financial institutions identified to the Non-extending
Lender, which may include any Lender (each an “Additional Commitment Lender”), provided that (x) such Additional Commitment Lender, if not already a Lender hereunder, shall be subject to the approval of Citibank and the
Company (such approvals not to be unreasonably withheld), (y) such assignment shall become effective as of a date specified by the Company (which shall not be later than the Maturity Date in effect prior to the requested extension) and (z) the
Additional Commitment Lender shall pay to such Non-extending Lender in immediately available funds on the effective date of such assignment the principal of and interest accrued to the date of payment on the Loans made by it hereunder and all other
amounts accrued for its account or owed to it hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no extension of the Maturity Date shall become effective unless, on the Maturity Date in effect prior to the requested extension the conditions set forth in
paragraphs (a) and (b) of Section 4.2 shall be satisfied (with all references in such paragraphs to a Borrowing being deemed to be references to the current Maturity Date) and Citibank shall have received a certificate to that effect dated such
Maturity Date and executed by a Financial Officer of the Company. 
  
 SECTION 2.6. Funding of Borrowings. (a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds in Dollars or in the applicable Alternative Currency, as
the case may be, to the account of Citibank or an Affiliate thereof most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders, by 2:00 p.m., New York City time (or, in the case of any Competitive Loan with respect to which a Borrower
shall have requested funding in another jurisdiction, to such account in such jurisdiction as Citibank shall designate for such purpose by notice to the applicable Lenders, by 2:00 p.m., local time). Citibank will make such Loans available to such
Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of such Borrower maintained with Citibank in New York City (or, in the case of any Competitive Loan with respect to which such Borrower shall have requested funding
in another jurisdiction, to such account in such jurisdiction as such Borrower shall have designated in the applicable Competitive Bid Request). 
  
 (b) Unless Citibank shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make
available to Citibank such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, Citibank may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make
available to such Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to Citibank, then the applicable Lender and the applicable Borrower severally agree to pay to Citibank
forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to such Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to Citibank, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the
greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by Citibank in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of such Borrower, the interest rate on the applicable Borrowing; provided
that no repayment by such Borrower pursuant to this sentence shall be deemed to be a 

  

 20 

 
prepayment for purposes of Section 2.15. If such Lender pays such amount to Citibank, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in
such Borrowing. 
  
 SECTION 2.7. Interest Elections. (a)
Each Revolving Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter,
the Company (on its own behalf or on behalf of any other Borrower) may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all
as provided in this Section. The Company (on its own behalf or on behalf of any other Borrower) may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably
among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. This Section shall not apply to Competitive Borrowings, which may not be converted or continued.

  
 (b) To make an election pursuant to this
Section, the Company (on its own behalf or on behalf of any other Borrower) shall notify Citibank of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.3 if the Company (on its own behalf or on behalf
of any other Borrower) were requesting a Revolving Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed
promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to Citibank of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by Citibank and signed by the Company. 
  
 (c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.2: 
  
 (i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request
applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below
shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing); 
  
 (ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day; 
  
 (iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing; and 
  
 (iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurocurrency Borrowing,
the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”. 
  
 If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Company (on its
own behalf or on behalf of any other Borrower) shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. 
  

 21 

 (d) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, Citibank shall advise
each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing. 
  
 (e) If the Company (on its own behalf or on behalf of any other Borrower) fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect
to a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing.
Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and Citibank, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Company, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding
Revolving Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto. 

 
 SECTION 2.8. Termination and Reduction of Commitments. (a) Unless
previously terminated, the Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date. 
  
 (b) The Company may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and
not less than $10,000,000 and (ii) the Company shall not terminate or reduce the Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.10, the sum of the Revolving Credit Exposures plus the
Competitive Loan Exposures would exceed the total Commitments. 
  
 (c) The Company shall notify Citibank of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or
reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, Citibank shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Company pursuant to this Section shall be
irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by the Company may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the
Company (by notice to Citibank on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments shall be made ratably among the
Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments. 
  
 SECTION 2.9. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) Each Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay (i) to Citibank for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of its Revolving Loans on the Maturity Date
and (ii) to Citibank for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Competitive Loan on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan. 
  
 (b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the
indebtedness of each Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. 
  

 22 

 (c) Citibank shall maintain a Register pursuant to subsection 8.4(d), and an account for
each Lender in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder and any promissory note evidencing such Loan, the Class and Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and
payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by Citibank hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof. 
  
 (d) The entries made in the Register and the accounts of
each Lender maintained pursuant to paragraphs (b) and (c) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or Citibank to maintain
such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of any Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
  
 (e) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note for its Competitive Loans
and a promissory note for its Revolving Loans. In such event, the applicable Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its
registered assigns) and in a form approved by Citibank. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 8.4) be represented by one or more promissory
notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its assigns). 
  
 SECTION 2.10. Prepayment of Loans. (a) The applicable Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in
whole or in part, subject to prior notice in accordance with paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that no Borrower shall have the right to prepay any Competitive Loan without the prior consent of the Lender thereof. 
  
 (b) The Company (on its own behalf or on behalf of any other
Borrower) shall notify Citibank by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing, not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date
of prepayment and (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Revolving Borrowing, not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment
date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that, if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.8, then
such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.8. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Revolving Borrowing, Citibank shall advise the Lenders of the contents
thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Revolving Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Revolving Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.2. Each prepayment of a Revolving Borrowing shall
be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.12. 
  

SECTION 2.11. Fees. (a) The Company agrees to pay to Citibank for the account of each Lender a facility fee which shall accrue at the Applicable
Rate on the average 

  

 23 

 
daily amount of the Commitment of such Lender (whether used or unused) during the period from and including the date hereof to but excluding the date on
which such Commitment terminates; provided that, if such Lender continues to have any Revolving Credit Exposure after its Commitment terminates, then such facility fee shall continue to accrue on the daily amount of such Lender’s
Revolving Credit Exposure from and including the date on which its Commitment terminates to but excluding the date on which such Lender ceases to have any Revolving Credit Exposure. Accrued facility fees shall be payable in arrears on the last day
of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereof; provided that any facility fees accruing after the date on which the
Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. All facility fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

  
 (b) The Company agrees to pay to the
Administrative Agents, for their own account, the administrative, auction and other fees separately agreed upon between the Company and the Administrative Agents (collectively, the “Administrative Fees”). 
  
 (c) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates
due, in immediately available funds, to Citibank for distribution, in the case of facility fees, to the Lenders. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances. 
  
 SECTION 2.12. Interest. (a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate
plus the Applicable Rate. 
  
 (b) The
Loans comprising each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall bear interest (i) in the case of a Eurocurrency Revolving Loan, at the LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate or (ii) in the case of a Eurocurrency
Competitive Loan, at the LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus (or minus, as applicable) the Competitive Loan Margin applicable to such Loan. 
  
 (c) Each Fixed Rate Loan shall bear interest at the Fixed Rate applicable to such Loan. 
  
 (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or
interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by any Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate
per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 1% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 1% plus the rate applicable to
ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section. 
  
 (e) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and, in the case of Revolving Loans, upon termination of the Commitments; provided that (i) interest
accrued pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan prior to the end of the Availability Period), accrued
interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment 

  

 24 

 
or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurocurrency Revolving Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued
interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion. 
  
 (f) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the
Alternate Base Rate at time when the Alternate Base Rate is based on clause (a) of the first sentence of the definition of Alternate Base Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall
be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate or LIBO Rate shall be determined by Citibank, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

  
 SECTION 2.13. Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to
the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Borrowing: 
  
 (a) Citibank shall have determined (which determination shall be made in good faith and shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBO Rate for
such Interest Period; or 
  
 (b) Citibank is
advised by the Required Lenders (or, in the case of a Eurocurrency Competitive Loan, the Lender that is required to make such Loan) that the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or
Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period; 
  
 then Citibank shall give notice thereof to the Company (on its own behalf or on behalf of the applicable Borrower) and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy as
promptly as practicable thereafter and, until Citibank notifies the Company and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Revolving Borrowing
to, or continuation of any Revolving Borrowing as, a Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be ineffective, (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing and (iii) any request by
the Company (on its own behalf or on behalf of any Borrower) for a Eurocurrency Competitive Borrowing shall be ineffective; provided that (A) if the circumstances giving rise to such notice do not affect all the Lenders, then requests by the
Company for Eurocurrency Competitive Borrowings may be made to Lenders that are not affected thereby and (B) if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Type of Borrowings, then the other Type of Borrowings shall be permitted.

  
 SECTION 2.14. Increased Costs. (a) If any Change in Law
shall: 
  
 (i) impose, modify or deem
applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender; or 
  

 25 

 (ii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition affecting
this Agreement or Eurocurrency Loans or Fixed Rate Loans made by such Lender; 
  
 and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurocurrency Loan or Fixed Rate Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) by an amount deemed by such
Lender to be material or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then the applicable Borrower will pay to such
Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. 
  
 (b) If any Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of
return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company
could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then
from time to time the Company will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. 
  
 (c) A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or
amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, and setting forth in reasonable detail the manner in which such amount or amounts shall have been determined, shall be delivered
to the applicable Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The applicable Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. 
  
 (d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand
compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased
costs or reductions incurred more than 60 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies such Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor;
provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 60-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. 

 
 (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this
Section, a Lender shall not be entitled to compensation pursuant to this Section in respect of any Competitive Loan if the Change in Law that would otherwise entitle it to such compensation shall have been publicly announced prior to submission of
the Competitive Bid pursuant to which such Loan was made. 
  
 SECTION 2.15. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurocurrency Loan or Fixed Rate Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event
of Default), (b) the conversion of any 

  

 26 

 
Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Revolving
Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.10(b) and is revoked in accordance therewith), (d) the failure to borrow any Competitive Loan after accepting the
Competitive Bid to make such Loan, or (e) the assignment of any Eurocurrency Loan or Fixed Rate Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by any Borrower pursuant to Section 2.18, then, in any
such event, the applicable Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the out-of-pocket loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurocurrency Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an
amount determined by such Lender to be the present value of the excess, if any, of (i) its cost of obtaining the funds for the Loan being paid, prepaid, refinanced or not borrowed (assumed to be the LIBO Rate applicable thereto) for the period from
the date of such payment, prepayment, refinancing or failure to borrow or refinance to the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (or, in the case of a failure to borrow or refinance the Interest Period for such Loan which would have
commenced on the date of such failure) over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) that would be realized by such Lender in reemploying the funds so paid, prepaid or not borrowed or refinanced for such period or
Interest Period, as the case may be. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section and setting forth in reasonable detail the manner in which such amount or amounts
shall have been determined shall be delivered to the applicable Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Such Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

  
 SECTION 2.16. Taxes. (a) Any and all payments to the
Lenders or the Administrative Agents hereunder by a Borrower or on behalf of any Borrower shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all current or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all
liabilities with respect thereto, excluding (i) taxes imposed on any Administrative Agent or any Lender (or participant) as a result of a present or former connection between such Administrative Agent or such Lender (or participant) and the
jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such tax or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than as a result of entering into this Agreement, performing any obligations hereunder, receiving any payments
hereunder or enforcing any rights hereunder) and (ii) any taxes that are attributable solely to the failure of any Non-U.S. Lender (as defined in Section 2.16(g) below) to comply with Section 2.16 (g) or 2.16(h) (all such nonexcluded taxes, levies,
imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities, collectively or individually, “Non-Excluded Taxes”). If the relevant Borrower shall be required to deduct any Non-Excluded Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable
hereunder to any Lender or any Administrative Agent, (i) the sum payable shall be increased by the amount (an “Additional Amount”) necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to Additional
Amounts payable under this Section 2.16)such Lender or such Administrative Agent (as the case may be) shall receive an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the relevant Borrower shall make such
deductions and (iii) the relevant Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.  
  

 27 

 (b) In addition, the relevant Borrower (or the Company, as guarantor, as applicable)
shall pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law any current or future stamp, intangibles or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies arising from any payment made hereunder
or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document that are imposed by a Governmental Authority in a jurisdiction in which the relevant Borrower or the Company is incorporated,
organized, managed and controlled or considered to have its seat or otherwise has a connection (other than as a result of entering into this Agreement, performing any obligations hereunder, receiving any payments hereunder or enforcing any rights
hereunder) (“Other Taxes”). 
  
 (c) The relevant Borrower (or the Company, as guarantor, as applicable) shall indemnify each Lender (or participant) and each Administrative Agent for the full amount of Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes paid by such Lender (or
participant) or such Administrative Agent, as the case may be, and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses)) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such
Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability prepared by a Lender, or an Administrative Agent on its behalf and setting forth
in reasonable detail the manner in which such amount shall have been determined, absent manifest error, shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes. Such indemnification shall be made within 30 days after the date the Lender or the
Administrative Agent, as the case may be, makes written demand therefor, which written demand shall be made within 60 days of the date such Lender or Administrative Agent receives written demand for payment of such Taxes or Other Taxes from the
relevant Governmental Authority. 
  
 (d) If a
Lender (or participant) or an Administrative Agent receives a refund in respect of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the relevant Borrower or with respect to which the relevant Borrower has paid Additional
Amounts pursuant to this Section 2.16, it shall within 30 days from the date of such receipt pay over such refund to the relevant Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or Additional Amounts paid, by the relevant Borrower under
this Section 2.16 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of such Lender (or participant) or such Administrative Agent and without interest (other than interest paid by the relevant
Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, however, that the relevant Borrower, upon the request of such Lender (or participant) or such Administrative Agent, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the relevant
Borrower (plus penalties, interest or other charges) to such Lender (or participant) or such Administrative Agent in the event such Lender (or participant) or such Administrative Agent is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.

  
 (e) As soon as practicable after the date of
any payment of Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes by the relevant Borrower to the relevant Governmental Authority, the relevant Borrower will deliver to Citibank, at its addresses referred to in Section 8.1, the original or a certified copy of a
receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing payment thereof. 
  

 28 

 (f) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement contained herein, the
agreements and obligations contained in this Section 2.16 shall survive the payment in full of the principal of and interest on all Loans made hereunder. 
  
 (g) Each Lender (or participant) that is not a United States Person as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Non-U.S.
Lender”) shall deliver to the Borrower and Citibank two copies of either United States Internal Revenue Service Form W8-BEN or W8ECI (or successor forms), or, in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption from U.S. Federal withholding
tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest”, a Form W8-BEN, or any subsequent or substitute versions thereof or successors thereto (and a certificate representing that such Non-U.S.
Lender is not a bank for purposes of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, is not a 10 percent shareholder (within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code) of the Company and is not a controlled foreign corporation related to the Company (within
the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code)), properly completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Lender claiming complete exemption from, or reduced rate of, U.S. Federal withholding tax on payments by the Company under this Agreement. Such
forms shall be delivered by each Non-U.S. Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of a participant, on or before the date such participant becomes a participant hereunder) and on or before the date, if any,
such Non-U.S. Lender changes its applicable lending office by designating a different lending office (a “New Lending Office”). In addition, each Non-U.S. Lender shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity
of any form previously delivered by such Non-U.S. Lender. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.16(g), a Non-U.S. Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this Section 2.16(g) that such Non-U.S. Lender is not
legally able to deliver. 
  
 (h) A Lender (or
participant) that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of non-U.S. withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which a Borrowing Subsidiary is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments
under this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrowing Subsidiary (with a copy to Citibank), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrowing Subsidiary, 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 (or participant) 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 participant). 
  
 (i) The relevant Borrower shall not be required to indemnify any Lender, or to pay any Additional Amounts to any Lender, in respect of any
withholding tax pursuant to paragraph (a) or (c) above to the extent that (i) the obligation to withhold amounts with respect to such withholding tax was in effect and would apply to amounts payable to such Lender on the date such Lender became a
party to this Agreement (or, in the case of a participant, on the date such participant became a participant hereunder) or, with respect to payments to a New Lending Office, the date such Non-U.S. Lender designated such New Lending Office with
respect to a Loan or, with respect to payments by a Borrower pursuant to a Competitive Loan, as of the date the Company accepts a Competitive Bid pursuant to Section 2.4(d); provided, however, that this 

  

 29 

 
clause (i) shall not apply to any Lender (or participant) if the assignment, participation, transfer or designation of a New Lending Office was made at the
request of the relevant Borrower; and provided further, however, that this clause (i) shall not apply to the extent the indemnity payment or Additional Amounts any Lender (or participant) would be entitled to receive (without regard to
this clause (i)) do not exceed the indemnity payment or Additional Amounts that the Lender (or participant) making the assignment, participation, transfer or designation of such New Lending Office would have been entitled to receive in the absence
of such assignment, participation, transfer or designation, or (ii) the obligation to pay such Additional Amounts would not have arisen but for a failure by such Lender (or participant) to comply with the provisions of paragraph (g) or (h) above.

  
 (j) Any Lender (or participant) claiming any
indemnity payment or Additional Amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.16 shall use reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to file any certificate or document reasonably requested in writing by the relevant
Borrower or to change the jurisdiction of its applicable lending office if the making of such a filing or change would avoid the need for or reduce the amount of any such indemnity payment or Additional Amounts that may thereafter accrue and would
not, in the sole determination of such Lender (or participant), be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender (or participant). 
  
 (k) Nothing contained in this Section 2.16 shall require any Lender (or participant) or any Administrative Agent to make available any of
its tax returns (or any other information that it deems to be confidential or proprietary). 
  
 SECTION 2.17. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs. (a) Each Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees, or of amounts
payable under Section 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16, or otherwise) prior to 3:00 p.m., local time at the place of payment, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date
may, in the discretion of Citibank, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to Citibank at its offices at 399 Park Avenue, New York, New York,
or such other location as Citibank shall designate from time to time, except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 8.5 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. Citibank shall distribute any such payments received by
it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business
Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in Dollars or, in the case of Competitive Loans, the applicable Currency, as the case
may be. 
  
 (b) If at any time insufficient funds
are received by and available to Citibank to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled
thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due
to such parties. 
  

 30 

 (c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise,
obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Revolving Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Revolving Loans and accrued interest thereon than the
proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Revolving Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such
payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Revolving Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any
portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to
apply to any payment made by any Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any
assignee or participant, other than to the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). Each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under
applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct
creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation. 
  
 (d) Unless Citibank shall have received notice from a Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to Citibank for the account of the Lenders hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment, Citibank
may assume that such Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if such Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each
of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to Citibank forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment
to Citibank, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by Citibank in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. 
  
 (e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.6(b) or
2.17(d), then Citibank may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by Citibank for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all
such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid. 
  
 SECTION 2.18.
Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender
pursuant to Section 2.16, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to file any certificate or document requested by the Company (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions), to designate a different lending office for funding or booking
its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such filing, designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce 

  

 31 

 
amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.14 or 2.16, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender.

  
 (b) If any Lender requests compensation under
Section 2.14, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, or if any Lender defaults in its obligation to fund Loans hereunder, then
such Borrower may, upon notice to such Lender and Citibank, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 8.4), all its interests, rights and obligations under
this Agreement (other than any outstanding Competitive Loans held by it and any and all rights and interests related thereto) to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such
assignment); provided that (i) such Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agents which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the
outstanding principal of its Loans (other than Competitive Loans), accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or
such Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.14 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.16, such assignment will result in a
reduction in such compensation or payments. 
  
 SECTION 2.19.
Borrowing Subsidiaries. The Company may designate any Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Company as a Borrowing Subsidiary. Upon the receipt by Citibank of a Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement executed by such a Wholly Owned Subsidiary and the
Company, such Wholly Owned Subsidiary shall be a Borrowing Subsidiary and a party to this Agreement. A Subsidiary shall cease to be a Borrowing Subsidiary hereunder at such time as no Loans, fees or any other amounts due in connection therewith
pursuant to the terms hereof shall be outstanding to such Subsidiary and such Subsidiary and the Company shall have executed and delivered to Citibank a Borrowing Subsidiary Termination; provided that, notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, no Borrowing Subsidiary shall cease to be a Borrowing Subsidiary solely because it no longer is a Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Company so long as such Borrowing Subsidiary and the Company shall not have executed and delivered to Citibank
a Borrowing Subsidiary Termination and the Company’s guarantee of the Borrowing Subsidiary Obligations of such Borrowing Subsidiary pursuant to Section 8.16 has not been released.

and all other liabilities of the Company or any Borrowing Subsidiary accrued hereunder, shall become forthwith due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived anything
contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding; and, in any event with respect to the Company described in paragraph (g) or (h) above, the Commitments shall automatically terminate and the principal of the Loans then outstanding, together with
accrued interest thereon and any unpaid accrued fees and all other liabilities of the 

  

 42 

 
Company and the Borrowing Subsidiaries accrued hereunder shall automatically become due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice
of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding. 
  
 ARTICLE VII  
 THE ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENTS 
  
 In order to expedite the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement, each of The Chase Manhattan Bank and Citibank, N.A. is hereby appointed to act as an Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders and Citibank is hereby appointed to act as Advance Agent on behalf of the Lenders.
Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorizes each Administrative Agent (which term, for purposes of this Article VII, shall be deemed to include the Advance Agent) to take such actions on behalf of such Lender or holder and to exercise such
powers as are specifically delegated to the Administrative Agents or an Administrative Agent individually, as the case may be, by the terms and provisions hereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Citibank
is hereby expressly authorized by the Lenders, without hereby limiting any implied authority, (a) to receive on behalf of the Lenders all payments of principal of and interest on the Loans and all other amounts due to the Lenders hereunder, and
promptly to distribute to each Lender its proper share of each payment so received; (b) to give notice on behalf of each of the Lenders to the Company or any Borrowing Subsidiary of any Event of Default of which Citibank has actual knowledge
acquired in connection with its agency hereunder; and (c) to distribute to each Lender copies of all notices, financial statements and other materials delivered by the Company or any Borrowing Subsidiary pursuant to this Agreement as received by
Citibank. 
  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, Chase shall have no
duties under the Loan Documents in its capacity as Administrative Agent. 
  
 Neither Administrative Agent nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable as such for any action taken or omitted by any of them except for its or his or her own gross
negligence or willful misconduct, or be responsible for any statement, warranty or representation herein or the contents of any document delivered in connection herewith, or be required to ascertain or to make any inquiry concerning the performance
or observance by the Company or any Borrowing Subsidiary of any of the terms, conditions, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement. The Administrative Agents shall not be responsible to the Lenders for the due execution, genuineness,
validity, enforceability or effectiveness of this Agreement or other instruments or agreements. The Administrative Agents may deem and treat the Lender which makes any Loan as the holder of the indebtedness resulting therefrom for all purposes
hereof until it shall have received notice 

  

 43 

 
from such Lender, given as provided herein, of the transfer thereof. The Administrative Agents shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or refraining
from acting, in accordance with written instructions signed by the Required Lenders and, except as otherwise specifically provided herein, such instructions and any action or inaction pursuant thereto shall be binding on all the Lenders. The
Administrative Agents shall, in the absence of knowledge to the contrary, be entitled to rely on any instrument or document believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person or Persons.
Neither Administrative Agent nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents shall have any responsibility to the Company or any Borrowing Subsidiary on account of the failure of or delay in performance or breach by any Lender
of any of its obligations hereunder or to any Lender on account of the failure of or delay in performance or breach by any other Lender or the Company of any of their respective obligations hereunder or in connection herewith. The Administrative
Agents may execute any and all duties hereunder by or through their Affiliates, agents or employees and shall be entitled to rely upon the advice of legal counsel selected by them with respect to all matters arising hereunder and shall not be liable
for any action taken or suffered in good faith by them in accordance with the advice of such counsel. 
  
 The Lenders hereby acknowledge that the Administrative Agents shall be under no duty to take any discretionary action permitted to be taken by them
pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement unless they shall be requested in writing to do so by the Required Lenders. 
  
 Subject, in the case of a resignation of both Administrative Agents, to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided
below, either Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders and the Company. Upon any such resignation of both Administrative Agents, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent
acceptable to the Company. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agents give notice of their resignation, then the retiring
Administrative Agents may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000 or an Affiliate of any such
bank. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor bank, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agents and the
retiring Administrative Agents shall be discharged from their duties and obligations hereunder. If only one of the Administrative Agents shall resign, the other Administrative Agent shall become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and
duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. After any Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section
8.5 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 Administrative Agent. 
  
 With respect to the Loans made by them hereunder, each Administrative Agent in its individual capacity and not as Administrative Agent shall have the same
rights and powers as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Administrative Agent, and such Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and 

  

 44 

 
generally engage in any kind of business with the Company or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not an Administrative Agent. 

 
 Each Lender agrees (i) to reimburse the Administrative Agents, on demand,
in the amount of its Applicable Percentage of any expenses incurred for the benefit of the Lenders by the Administrative Agents, including counsel fees and compensation of agents and employees paid for services rendered on behalf of the Lenders,
which shall not have been reimbursed by the Company and (ii) to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agents and any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents, on demand, in the amount of such pro rata share, from and
against any and all liabilities, taxes, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against either of them in
its capacity as an Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any action taken or omitted by either of them under this Agreement to the extent the same shall not have been reimbursed by the Company;
provided that no Lender shall be liable to any Administrative Agent for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the gross negligence
or willful misconduct of such Administrative Agent or any of its directors, officers, employees or agents. 
  
 Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and
information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Administrative Agent or any other Lender and
based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder
or thereunder.

pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the Lenders and shall survive the making by the Lenders of the Loans regardless of any investigation made by the Lenders or on their behalf, and shall continue in full force
and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or the Commitments have not been terminated.

when it shall have been executed by the Company and the Administrative Agents and when the Administrative Agents shall have received copies hereof (telecopied or otherwise) which, when taken together, bear the signature of each Lender, and
thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, except that neither the Company nor any Borrowing Subsidiary shall have the right to assign any rights hereunder or any

 (b) Each Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement
(including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided, however, that, except in the case of an assignment to another Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender, (i) each of the Company (so long as no

unreasonably withheld) and (ii) the 

  

 46 

 
amount of the Commitment of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to
such assignment is delivered to Citibank) shall not be less than $10,000,000 unless it shall be the entire amount of such Lender’s Commitment. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to Citibank an Assignment and Acceptance,
and a processing and recordation fee of $3,500. Upon acceptance and recording pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, which effective date shall be at least five
Business Days after the execution thereof, (X) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement and (Y)
the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining
portion of an 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 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 8.5, as well as to any fees accrued
for its account hereunder and not yet paid)). Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Lender assigning its rights and obligations under this Agreement may retain any Competitive Loans made by it outstanding at such time, and in such case shall retain its
rights hereunder in respect of any Loans so retained until such Loans have been repaid in full in accordance with this Agreement. 
  
 (c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Lender thereunder and the assignee thereunder shall be deemed
to confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) such assigning Lender warrants that it is the legal and beneficial owner of the interest being assigned thereby free and clear of any adverse claim; (ii) except as
set forth in (i) above, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the execution, legality,
validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or the financial condition of the Company or the performance or observance by the Company of any obligations
under this Agreement or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (iii) such assignee represents and warrants that it is legally authorized to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee confirms that it has
received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the most recent financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 5.3 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to
enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (v) such assignee will independently and without reliance upon any Administrative Agent, such assigning Lender or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at
the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (vi) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agents to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers
under this Agreement as are delegated to the Administrative Agents by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all the
obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender. 
  

 47 

 (d) Citibank shall maintain at one of its offices in the City of New York a copy of each
Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and the principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time
and any promissory notes evidencing such Loans (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error and the Company, the other Borrowers, the Administrative Agents and the Lenders may treat
each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. No assignment or transfer of any Loan (or portion thereof) or any Note evidencing such Loan shall be effected
unless and until it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this subsection 8.4(d). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any assignment or transfer of all or part of a promissory note shall be registered on the Register
only upon surrender for registration of assignment or transfer of the promissory note (and each promissory note shall expressly so provide), accompanied by a duly executed Assignment and Acceptance, and thereupon one or more new promissory notes in
the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the designated Assignee and the old promissory notes shall be returned by Citibank to the Borrower marked “cancelled”. The Register shall be available for inspection by each party
hereto, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 
  
 (e) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee together with an
Administrative Questionnaire completed in respect of the assignee (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) above and, if required, the written consent of the Company
to such assignment, Citibank shall (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance and (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register. 
  
 (f) Each Lender may sell participations to one or more banks or other entities in all or a portion of its rights and obligations under
this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided, however, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible
to the other parties hereto or thereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) each participating bank or other entity shall be entitled to the benefit of the cost protection provisions contained in Sections 2.14, 2.15 and 2.16 to the same
extent as if it was the selling Lender (and limited to the amount that could have been claimed by the selling Lender had it continued to hold the interest of such participating bank or other entity, it being further agreed that the selling Lender
will not be permitted to make claims against the Company under Section 2.14(b) for costs or reductions resulting from the sale of a participation), except that all claims made pursuant to such Sections shall be made through such selling Lender, and
(iv) the Company, the Administrative Agents and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such selling Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, and such Lender shall retain the
sole right to enforce the obligations of the Company relating to the Loans and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement (other than amendments, modifications or waivers decreasing any fees payable hereunder
or thereunder or the amount of principal of or the rate at which interest is payable on the Loans, extending the final scheduled maturity of the Loans or any date scheduled for the payment of interest on the Loans or extending the Commitments).

  

 48 

 (g) Any Lender or participant may, in connection with any assignment or participation or
proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant any information relating to the Company furnished to such Lender; provided that, prior to any such
disclosure, each such assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant shall be subject to the same confidentiality agreement as are the Lenders. 
  
 (h) The Company and any Borrowing Subsidiary shall not assign or delegate any rights and duties hereunder without the prior written
consent of all Lenders. 
  
 (i) Any Lender may at
any time pledge or otherwise assign all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge shall release any Lender from its obligations hereunder. In order to facilitate such an
assignment to a Federal Reserve Bank, the Company shall, at the request of the assigning Lender, duly execute and deliver to the assigning Lender a promissory note or notes evidencing the Loans made by the assigning Lender hereunder. 
  
 SECTION 8.5. Expenses; Indemnity. (a) The Company agrees to pay all
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agents in connection with entering into this Agreement or in connection with any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (including the reasonable
fees, disbursements and other charges of a single counsel), or incurred by the Administrative Agents or any Lender in connection with the enforcement of their rights in connection with this Agreement or in connection with the Loans made hereunder or
thereunder, including the fees and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agents and, in the case of enforcement, each Lender. 
  
 (b) The Company agrees to indemnify each Administrative Agent, each Lender, each of their Affiliates and the directors, officers,
employees and agents of the foregoing (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and to hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including reasonable counsel
fees and expenses, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of (i) the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) the use of the proceeds of the Loans or (iii) any claim, litigation, investigation or
proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that (A) such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
related expenses resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee and (B) such indemnity shall not apply to losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses that result from disputes solely between Lenders.

  
 (c) The provisions of this Section shall
remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Loans, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or
provision of this Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of any Administrative Agent or any Lender. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable on written demand therefor. 
  

 49 

 SECTION 8.6. Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY
THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.  
  
 SECTION 8.7.
Waivers; Amendment. (a) No failure or delay of any Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any power or right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any
abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agents and the Lenders hereunder are
cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies which they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by
paragraph (b) below, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice or demand on the Company or any Subsidiary in any case shall entitle such party to any other or
further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. 
  
 (b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Company and the Required Lenders; provided,
however, that no such agreement shall (i) decrease the principal amount of, or extend the maturity of or any scheduled principal payment date or date for the payment of any interest on any Loan, or waive or excuse any such payment or any part
thereof, or decrease the rate of interest on any Loan, or amend or modify Section 8.16, without the prior written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (ii) increase the Commitment, or decrease the facility fees of any Lender without the
prior written consent of such Lender or (iii) amend or modify the provisions of Section 2.17 or Section 8.4(h), the provisions of this Section or the definition of the “Required Lenders”, without the prior written consent of each Lender;
provided further, however, that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of any Administrative Agent hereunder without the prior written consent of such Administrative Agent. Each Lender shall be bound by
any waiver, amendment or modification authorized by this Section and any consent by any Lender pursuant to this Section shall bind any assignee of its rights and interests hereunder. 
  
 SECTION 8.8. Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire contract among the parties relative to the
subject matter hereof. Any previous agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof is superseded by this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties
hereto any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 8.9. Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability
of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic
effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions. 
  

 50 

 SECTION 8.10. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of
which shall constitute an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute but one contract, and shall become effective as provided in Section 8.3. 
  
 SECTION 8.11. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of
reference only, are not part of this Agreement and are not to affect the construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 8.12. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender is hereby
authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by
such Lender to or for the credit or obligations of the Company and the applicable Borrowing Subsidiary now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under
this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Company after such setoff and application made by such Lender, but the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff
and application. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have. 
  
 SECTION 8.13. Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) The
Company and any Borrowing Subsidiary hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or Federal court of the United States of America sitting in New York City,
and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that
all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or
proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Subject to the foregoing and to paragraph (b) below, nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that any
party hereto may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement against any other party hereto in the courts of any jurisdiction. 
  

(b) Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do
so, any objection which it may now or thereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any New York State or Federal court. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives,
to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court. 
  
 (c) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 8.1. Nothing in
this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. 
  

 51 

 SECTION 8.14. Waiver of Jury Trial. Each party hereto hereby waives, to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law, any right it may have to a trial by jury in respect of any litigation directly or indirectly arising out of, under or in connection with this Agreement. Each party hereto (a) certifies that no representative, agent or
attorney of any other party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver and (b) acknowledges that it and other parties hereto have been induced to enter
into this Agreement by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certification in this Section. 
  
 SECTION 8.15. Conversion of Currencies. (a) If, for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum owing
hereunder in one currency into another currency, each party hereto agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant
jurisdiction the first currency could be purchased with such other currency on the Business Day immediately preceding the day on which final judgment is given. 
  

(b) The obligations of each Borrower in respect of any sum due to any party hereto or any holder of the obligations owing hereunder
(the “Applicable Creditor”) shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than the currency in which such sum is stated to be due hereunder (the “Agreement
Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following receipt by the Applicable Creditor of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Applicable Creditor may in accordance with normal banking
procedures in the relevant jurisdiction 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 Applicable Creditor in the Agreement Currency, such
Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Applicable Creditor against such loss. The obligations of the Borrowers contained in this Section 8.15 shall survive the termination of this Agreement
and the payment of all other amounts owing hereunder. 
  
 SECTION
8.16. Guaranty. In order to induce the Lenders to make Loans to the applicable Borrowing Subsidiaries, the Company hereby unconditionally guarantees the Borrowing Subsidiary Obligations of all the Borrowing Subsidiaries. The Company further
agrees that the Borrowing Subsidiary Obligations may be extended and renewed, in whole or in part, without notice to or further assent from it, and that it will remain bound upon its agreement hereunder notwithstanding any extension or renewal of
any Borrowing Subsidiary Obligation. 
  
 The Company waives
promptness, diligence, presentment to, demand of payment from and protest to the Borrowing Subsidiaries of any Borrowing Subsidiary Obligations, and also waives notice of acceptance of its obligations and notice of protest for nonpayment. The
obligations of the Company hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional and not be affected by (a) the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agents to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Borrowing
Subsidiaries under the provisions of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or otherwise; (b) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement, any other Loan Documents or any other
agreement; (c) the failure of any Lender to exercise any right or remedy against any Borrowing Subsidiaries; (d) the invalidity or unenforceability of any Loan Document 

  

 52 

 
or (e) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to or discharge of the Borrower or a guarantor (other than payment).

  
 The Company further agrees that its agreement hereunder
constitutes a promise of payment when due and not of collection, and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Lender to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of any Lender in favor of any Borrowing Subsidiary or
any other Person. 
  
 The obligations of the Company hereunder
shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, and shall not be subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever, by reason of the invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability of the Borrowing Subsidiary Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of the Company hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of the
Administrative Agents or any Lender to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification in respect of any thereof, by any default, failure
or delay, wilful or otherwise, in the performance of the Borrowing Subsidiary Obligations, or by any other act or omission which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of the Company or otherwise operate as a discharge of the
Company as a matter of law or equity. 
  
 The Company further
agrees that its obligations hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of principal of or interest on any Borrowing Subsidiary Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise
be restored by the Administrative Agents or any Lender upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of any of the Borrowing Subsidiaries or otherwise. 
  
 In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which the Administrative Agents or any Lender may have at law or in equity
against the Company by virtue hereof, upon the failure of any Borrowing Subsidiary to pay any Borrowing Subsidiary Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, after notice of prepayment or otherwise, the
Company hereby promises to and will, upon receipt of written demand by Citibank, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash the amount of such unpaid Borrowing Subsidiary Obligation. In the event that, by reason of the bankruptcy of any Borrowing
Subsidiary, (i) acceleration of Loans made to such Borrowing Subsidiary is prevented and (ii) the Company shall not have prepaid the outstanding Loans and other amounts due hereunder owed by such Borrowing Subsidiary, the Company will forthwith
purchase such Loans at a price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest thereon and any other amounts due hereunder with respect thereto. The Company further agrees that if payment in respect of any Borrowing Subsidiary Obligation
shall be due in a currency other than Dollars and/or at a place of payment other than New York and if, by reason of any Change in Law, disruption of currency or foreign exchange markets, war or civil disturbance or similar event, payment of such
Borrowing Subsidiary Obligation in such currency or such place of payment shall be impossible or, in the judgment of any applicable Lender, not consistent with the protection of its rights or interests, then, at the election of any applicable
Lender, the Company shall make payment of such Borrowing Subsidiary Obligation in Dollars (based upon the applicable Exchange Rate in effect on the date of payment) and/or in New York, and shall 

  

 53 

 
indemnify such Lender against any losses or expenses that it shall sustain as a result of such alternative payment. 
  
 Upon payment by the Company of any Borrowing Subsidiary Obligations, each
Lender shall, in a reasonable manner, assign the amount of the Borrowing Subsidiary Obligations owed to it and paid by the Company pursuant to this guarantee to the Company, such assignment to be pro tanto to the extent to which the Borrowing
Subsidiary Obligations in question were discharged by the Company, or make such disposition thereof as the Company shall direct (all without recourse to any Lender and without any representation or warranty by any Lender except with respect to the
amount of the Borrowing Subsidiary Obligations so assigned). 
  
 Upon payment by the Company of any sums as provided above, all rights of the Company against any Borrowing Subsidiary arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation or otherwise shall in all respects be subordinated and junior
in right of payment to the prior indefeasible payment in full of all the Borrowing Subsidiary Obligations to the Lenders. 
  
 SECTION 8.17. European Monetary Union. If, as a result of the implementation of European monetary union, (a) any currency ceases to be lawful
currency of the nation issuing the same and is replaced by a European common currency, then any amount payable hereunder by any party hereto in such currency shall instead be payable in the European common currency and the amount so payable shall be
determined by translating the amount payable in such currency to such European common currency at the exchange rate recognized by the European Central Bank for the purpose of implementing European monetary union, or (b) any currency and a European
common currency are at the same time recognized by the central bank or comparable authority of the nation issuing such currency as lawful currency of such nation, then (i) any Loan made at such time shall be made in such European common currency and
(ii) any other amount payable by any party hereto in such currency shall be payable in such currency or in such European common currency (in an amount determined as set forth in clause (a)), at the election of the obligor. Prior to the occurrence of
the event or events described in clause (a) or (b) of the preceding sentence, each amount payable hereunder in any currency will continue to be payable only in that currency. The Borrowers agree, at the request of the Required Lenders, at the time
of or at any time following the implementation of European monetary union, to enter into an agreement amending this Agreement in such manner as the Required Lenders shall reasonably request in order to avoid any unfair burden or disadvantage
resulting from the implementation of such monetary union and to place the parties hereto in the position they would have been in had such monetary union not been implemented, the intent being that neither party will be adversely affected
economically as a result of such implementation and that reasonable provisions shall be adopted to govern the borrowing, maintenance and repayment of Loans denominated in currencies other than Dollars after the occurrence of the event or events
described in clause (a) or (b) of the preceding sentence. 
  
 SECTION 8.18. Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agents and the Lenders expressly agree, for the benefit of the Company and the Subsidiaries, to maintain the confidentiality of the Confidential Information (as defined
below), except that Confidential Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the 

  

 54 

 
Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Confidential Information and instructed to keep such Confidential
Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory 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) in connection
with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder, (f) subject to an express agreement for the benefit of the Company and the Subsidiaries containing
provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to any assignee of or participant in, or any prospective assignee of or participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, (g) with the consent of the Company or the
Subsidiaries, as applicable, or (h) to the extent such Confidential Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to any Administrative Agent or any Lender on a
nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Company or the Subsidiaries. For the purposes of this Section, “Confidential Information” means all information, including material nonpublic information within the meaning of Regulation
FD promulgated by the SEC (“Regulation FD”), received from the Company or the Subsidiaries relating to such entities or their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to any Administrative Agent or any
Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by such entities; provided that, in the case of information received from the Company or the Subsidiaries after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as
confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Confidential Information as provided in thisSection shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to
maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information; provided, however, that with respect to disclosures pursuant to clauses (b) and (c) of this Section, unless prohibited by law or
applicable court order, each Lender and each Administrative Agent shall attempt to notify the Company and the Subsidiaries of any request by any governmental agency or representative thereof or other Person for disclosure of Confidential Information
after receipt of such request, and if reasonable, practicable and permissible, before disclosure of such Confidential Information. It is understood and agreed that the Company, the Subsidiaries and their respective Affiliates may rely upon this
Section 8.18 for any purpose, including without limitation to comply with Regulation FD.
