 DELAYED DRAW TERM LOAN
CREDIT AGREEMENT 
 This Delayed Draw Term Loan Credit Agreement is entered into as of August 1,
2014, by and among Penford Corporation, a Washington corporation (the “Borrower”), the direct and indirect Subsidiaries of the Borrower from time to time party to this Agreement, as Guarantors, the several financial institutions
from time to time party to this Agreement, as Lenders, and Coöperatieve Centrale Raiffeisen-Boerenleenbank B.A., “Rabobank Nederland,” New York Branch (“Rabobank”), as Administrative Agent as provided herein. All
capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the same meanings herein as such terms are defined in Section 5.1 hereof. 

PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS 

WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested that the Lenders make available for the purposes specified in this Agreement a term loan credit facility;
and 
 WHEREAS, the Lenders are willing to make available to the Borrower such term loan credit facility upon the terms and subject to the
conditions set forth herein; 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the covenants and agreements contained herein, the
parties hereto hereby agree as follows: 
 SECTION 1. THE CREDIT FACILITIES. 

Section 1.1. Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Lender, by its acceptance hereof,
severally agrees to make a loan or loans (individually a “Delayed Draw Term Loan” and collectively for all the Lenders the “Delayed Draw Term Loans”) in U.S. Dollars to the Borrower from time to time up to the
amount of such Lender’s Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment during the Delayed Draw Term Loan Availability Period; provided, that (a) the aggregate original principal amount of all Delayed Draw Term Loans shall not exceed the Delayed Draw
Term Loan Commitment and (b) the aggregate original principal amount of all Delayed Draw Term Loans of any Lender shall not exceed such Lender’s Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment. Each Borrowing of Delayed Draw Term Loans shall be made
ratably by the Lenders in proportion to their respective Delayed Draw Term Loan Percentages; provided, that the Borrower shall be limited to six (6) Borrowings during the Delayed Draw Term Loan Availability Period. As provided in
Section 1.5(a) hereof, the Borrower may elect that the Delayed Draw Term Loans be outstanding as Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Loans. No amount repaid or prepaid on any Delayed Draw Term Loan may be borrowed again. 

Section 1.2. [Intentionally Omitted] 

Section 1.3. Applicable Interest Rates. (a) Base Rate Loans. Each Base Rate Loan made or maintained by a Lender shall bear
interest during each Interest Period it is outstanding (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed) on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date such Loan is advanced or continued, or created by conversion from a
Eurodollar Loan, until maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Applicable Margin plus the Base Rate from time to time in effect, payable quarterly in arrears on the second Business Day immediately
following each Quarterly Date and at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise). 

 (b) Eurodollar Loans. Each Eurodollar Loan made or maintained by a Lender
shall bear interest during each Interest Period it is outstanding (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed) on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date such Loan is advanced, continued or created by conversion
from a Base Rate Loan, until maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Applicable Margin plus the Adjusted LIBOR applicable for such Interest Period, payable on the last day of the Interest Period
and at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise), and, if the applicable Interest Period is longer than three months, on each day occurring every three months after the commencement of such Interest Period. 

(c) Rate Determinations. The Administrative Agent shall determine each interest rate applicable to the Loans hereunder,
and its determination thereof shall be conclusive and binding except in the case of manifest error. 
 Section 1.4. Minimum Borrowing
Amounts. Each Borrowing of Base Rate Loans shall be in an amount not less than $250,000, or such greater amount which is an integral multiple of $50,000. Each Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans advanced, continued or converted shall be in an amount
equal to $500,000 or such greater amount which is an integral multiple of $100,000. Without the Administrative Agent’s consent, there shall not be more than six (6) Borrowings of Eurodollar Loans outstanding at any one time. 

Section 1.5. Manner of Borrowing Loans and Designating Applicable Interest Rates. (a) Notice to the Administrative Agent.
The Borrower shall give notice to the Administrative Agent by no later than: (i) 2:00 p.m. (New York, New York time) at least 3 Business Days before the date on which the Borrower requests the Lenders to advance a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans,
and (ii) 11:00 a.m. (New York, New York time) on the date the Borrower requests the Lenders to advance a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans . The Loans included in each Borrowing shall bear interest initially at the type of rate specified in such
notice of a new Borrowing. Thereafter, the Borrower may from time to time elect to change or continue the type of interest rate borne by each Borrowing or, subject to the minimum amount requirement set forth in Section 1.4 for each outstanding
Borrowing, a portion thereof, as follows: (i) if such Borrowing is of Eurodollar Loans, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower may continue part or all of such Borrowing as Eurodollar Loans or convert part or
all of such Borrowing into Base Rate Loans or (ii) if such Borrowing is of Base Rate Loans, on any Business Day, the Borrower may convert all or part of such Borrowing into Eurodollar Loans for an Interest Period or Interest Periods specified
by the Borrower. The Borrower shall give all such notices requesting the advance, continuation or conversion of a Borrowing to the Administrative Agent by telephone or telecopy (which notice shall be irrevocable once given and, if by telephone,
shall be promptly confirmed in writing), substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (“Notice of Borrowing”) or Exhibit C (“Notice of Continuation/Conversion”), as applicable, or in such other form
acceptable to the Administrative Agent. Notice of the continuation of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans for an additional Interest Period or of the conversion of part or all of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans into Eurodollar Loans must be given by no
later than 2:00 p.m. (New York, New York time) at least 3 Business Days before the date of the requested continuation or conversion. All such notices concerning the advance, continuation or conversion of a Borrowing shall specify the date of the
requested 

  
 2 

 
advance, continuation or conversion of a Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), the amount of the requested Borrowing to be advanced, continued or converted, the type of Loans to comprise
such new, continued or converted Borrowing and, if such Borrowing is to be comprised of Eurodollar Loans, the Interest Period applicable thereto (and the last day thereof). The Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may rely on any such
telephonic or telecopy notice given by any person the Administrative Agent in good faith believes is an Authorized Representative without the necessity of independent investigation, and in the event any such notice by telephone conflicts with any
written confirmation such telephonic notice shall govern if the Administrative Agent has acted in reliance thereon. 
 (b)
Notice to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt telephonic or telecopy notice to each Lender of any notice from the Borrower received pursuant to Section 1.5(a) above and, if such notice requests the Lenders to make
Eurodollar Loans, the Administrative Agent shall give notice to the Borrower and each Lender by like means of the applicable currency and interest rate applicable thereto promptly after the Administrative Agent has made such determination. Each
Lender shall, subject to Section 7 hereof, make its Loan in accordance with Section 1.5 hereof. 
 (c)
Borrower’s Failure to Notify; Automatic Continuations and Conversions. Any outstanding Borrowing of Base Rate Loans shall automatically be continued for an additional Interest Period on the last day of its then current Interest Period
unless the Borrower has notified the Administrative Agent within the period required by Section 1.5(a) that the Borrower intends to convert such Borrowing, subject to Section 7.1 hereof, into a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans or such
Borrowing is prepaid in accordance with Section 1.8(a). If the Borrower fails to give notice pursuant to Section 1.5(a) above of the continuation or conversion of any outstanding principal amount of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans before
the last day of its then current Interest Period within the period required by Section 1.5(a) or, whether or not such notice has been given, one or more of the conditions set forth in Section 7.1 for the continuation or conversion of a
Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans would not be satisfied, and such Borrowing is not prepaid in accordance with Section 1.8(a), such Borrowing shall automatically be converted into a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans. If no Interest Period is specified
in any such notice with respect to any conversion to or continuation of a Eurodollar Loan, the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. 

(d) Disbursement of Loans. Not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York, New York time) on the date of any requested advance of a
new Borrowing, subject to Section 7 hereof, each Lender shall make available its Loan comprising part of such Borrowing in funds immediately available at the principal office of the Administrative Agent in New York, New York. The Administrative
Agent shall make the proceeds of each new Borrowing available to the Borrower at the Administrative Agent’s principal office in New York, New York, in the type of funds received by the Administrative Agent from the Lenders. 

  
 3 

 (e) Administrative Agent Reliance on Lender Funding. Unless the
Administrative Agent shall have been notified by a Lender prior to (or, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, by 2:00 p.m. (New York, New York time) on) the date on which such Lender is scheduled to make payment to the Administrative Agent
of the proceeds of a Loan (which notice shall be effective upon receipt) that such Lender does not intend to make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such payment when due and the Administrative Agent may in
reliance upon such assumption (but shall not be required to) make available to the Borrower the proceeds of the Loan to be made by such Lender and, if any Lender has not in fact made such payment to the Administrative Agent, such Lender shall, on
demand, pay to the Administrative Agent the amount made available to the Borrower attributable to such Lender together with interest thereon in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date such amount was made available to the
Borrower and ending on (but excluding) the date such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent at a rate per annum equal to: (i) from the date the related advance was made by the Administrative Agent to the date 2 Business Days after
payment by such Lender is due hereunder, the Federal Funds Rate for each such day and (ii) from the date 2 Business Days after the date such payment is due from such Lender to the date such payment is made by such Lender, the Base Rate in
effect for each such day. If such amount is not received from such Lender by the Administrative Agent immediately upon demand, the Borrower will, on demand, repay to the Administrative Agent the proceeds of the Loan attributable to such Lender with
interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to the relevant Loan, but without such payment being considered a payment or prepayment of a Loan under Section 1.11 hereof so that the Borrower will have no liability
under such Section with respect to such payment. The failure of any Lender to make the payment to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its payment on the date of such
Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the payment to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing. 

Section 1.6. Interest Periods. As provided in Section 1.5(a) hereof, at the time of each request to advance, continue or create by
conversion a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans, the Borrower shall select an Interest Period applicable to such Loans from among the available options. The term “Interest Period” means the period commencing on the date a Borrowing of
Loans is advanced, continued or created by conversion and ending: (a) in the case of Base Rate Loans, on the last Business Day of the calendar quarter (i.e., the last Business Day of March, June, September or December, as applicable) in
which such Borrowing is advanced, continued or created by conversion (or on the last Business Day of the following calendar quarter if such Loan is advanced, continued or created by conversion on the last Business Day of a calendar quarter) and
(b) in the case of a Eurodollar Loan, 1, 2, 3 or 6 months thereafter; provided, however, that: 
 (i) any
Interest Period for a Borrowing of Delayed Draw Term Loans consisting of Base Rate Loans that otherwise would end after the Delayed Draw Termination Date shall end on the Delayed Draw Termination Date; 

(ii) no Interest Period with respect to any portion of the Delayed Draw Term Loans shall extend beyond the Delayed Draw
Termination Date; 

  
 4 

 (iii) whenever the last day of any Interest Period for Eurodollar Loans would
otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, the last day of such Interest Period shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, provided that, if such extension would cause the last day of an Interest Period for a Borrowing of
Eurodollar Loans to occur in the following calendar month, the last day of such Interest Period shall be the immediately preceding Business Day; and 

(iv) for purposes of determining an Interest Period for a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans, a month means a period starting on one
day in a calendar month and ending on the numerically corresponding day in the next calendar month; provided, however, that if there is no numerically corresponding day in the month in which such an Interest Period is to end or if such
an Interest Period begins on the last Business Day of a calendar month, then such Interest Period shall end on the last Business Day of the calendar month in which such Interest Period is to end. 

Section 1.7. Maturity of Loans. Each Loan, both for principal and interest not sooner paid, shall mature and become due and payable by
the Borrower on the Delayed Draw Termination Date. 
 Section 1.8. Prepayments. (a) Optional. Subject to any restrictions
with respect thereto set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement, the Borrower shall have the privilege of prepaying without premium or penalty (except as set forth in Section 1.11 hereof) and in whole or in part (but, if in part, then:
(i) if such Borrowing is of Base Rate Loans, in an amount not less than $250,000, (ii) if such Borrowing is of Eurodollar Loans, in an amount not less than $500,000 or any greater amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000, and
(iii) in each case, in an amount such that the minimum amount required for a Borrowing pursuant to Section 1.4 hereof remains outstanding) any Borrowing at any time with up to 50% of the net proceeds of an equity issuance by the Borrower
so long as after giving pro forma effect to such prepayment measured as of the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal quarter for which financial statements have been delivered to Administrative Agent (and as demonstrated in an officer’s
certificate delivered to the Administrative Agent), the Total Leverage Ratio is less than 3.75 to 1.00; provided, that, if such prepayment is with respect to a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans, the Borrower has delivered three (3) Business
Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent or, in the case of a prepayment of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, the Borrower has delivered notice to the Administrative Agent no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York, New York time) on the date of
such prepayment. Each such prepayment shall be made by the payment of the principal amount to be prepaid and, in the case of any Eurodollar Loans accrued interest thereon to the date fixed for prepayment plus any amounts due the Lenders under
Section 1.11. 
 (b) [Intentionally Omitted]. 

(c) The Administrative Agent will promptly advise each Lender of any notice of prepayment it receives from the Borrower. 

(d) [Intentionally Omitted].

 Section 1.9. Default Rate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
Section 1.3 hereof, while any Event of Default exists or after acceleration, the Borrower shall pay interest (after as well as before entry of judgment thereon to the extent permitted by law) on the principal amount of all Loans at a rate per
annum equal to: 
 (a) for any Base Rate Loan, the sum of 2.0% plus the Applicable Margin plus the Base Rate from time to
time in effect; and 
 (b) for any Eurodollar Loan, the sum of 2.0% plus the rate of interest in effect thereon at the time
of such default until the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto and, thereafter, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of 2.0% plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans plus the Base Rate from time to time in effect; 

provided, however, that in the absence of acceleration, any adjustments pursuant to this Section shall be made at the election of the Administrative
Agent, acting at the request or with the consent of the Required Lenders, with written notice to the Borrower. While any Event of Default exists or after acceleration, interest shall be paid on demand of the Administrative Agent at the request or
with the consent of the Required Lenders. 
 Section 1.10. The Notes. (a) The Delayed Draw Term Loans made to the Borrower by a
Lender shall be evidenced by a single promissory note of the Borrower issued to such Lender in the form of Exhibit D hereto. Each such promissory note is hereinafter referred to as a “Delayed Draw Term Note” and collectively
such promissory notes are referred to as the “Delayed Draw Term Notes.” 
 (b) Each Lender shall record on
its books and records or on a schedule to its appropriate Note the amount of each Loan advanced, continued or converted by it, all payments of principal and interest and the principal balance from time to time outstanding thereon, the type of such
Loan, and, for any Eurodollar Loan, the Interest Period, the currency in which such Loan is denominated, and the interest rate applicable thereto. The record thereof, whether shown on such books and records of a Lender or on a schedule to the
relevant Note, shall be prima facie evidence as to all such matters; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender to record any of the foregoing or any error in any such record shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligation of
the Borrower to repay all Loans made to it hereunder together with accrued interest thereon. At the request of any Lender and upon such Lender tendering to the Borrower the appropriate Note to be replaced, the Borrower shall furnish a new Note to
such Lender to replace any outstanding Note, and at such time the first notation appearing on a schedule on the reverse side of, or attached to, such Note shall set forth the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Loans, if any, then outstanding
thereon. 
 Section 1.11. Funding Indemnity. If any Lender shall incur any loss, cost or expense (including, without limitation, any
loss of profit, and any loss, cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or re-employment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund or maintain any Eurodollar Loan or the relending or reinvesting of such deposits or
amounts paid or prepaid to such Lender) as a result of: 

  
 6 

 (a) any payment, prepayment or conversion of a Eurodollar Loan on a date other
than the last day of its Interest Period, 
 (b) any failure (because of a failure to meet the conditions of Section 7
or otherwise) by the Borrower to borrow or continue a Eurodollar Loan, or to convert a Base Rate Loan into a Eurodollar Loan on the date specified in a notice given pursuant to Section 1.5(a) hereof, 

(c) any failure by the Borrower to make any payment of principal on any Eurodollar Loan when due (whether by acceleration or
otherwise), or 
 (d) any acceleration of the maturity of a Eurodollar Loan as a result of the occurrence of any Event of
Default hereunder, 
 then, upon the demand of such Lender, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such amount as will reimburse such Lender for such loss,
cost or expense. If any Lender makes such a claim for compensation, it shall provide to the Borrower, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, a certificate setting forth the amount of such loss, cost or expense in reasonable detail (including an
explanation of the basis for and the computation of such loss, cost or expense) and the amounts shown on such certificate shall be conclusive if reasonably determined. 

Section 1.12. [Intentionally Omitted.] 

Section 1.13. Substitution of Lenders. Upon the receipt by the Borrower of (a) a claim from any Lender for compensation under
Section 10.3 or 13.1 hereof, (b) notice by any Lender to the Borrower of any illegality pursuant to Section 10.1 hereof or (c) notice that any Lender is then a Defaulting Lender (any such Lender referred to in clause (a),
(b) or (c) above being hereinafter referred to as an “Affected Lender”), the Borrower may, in addition to any other rights the Borrower may have hereunder or under applicable law, require, at its expense, any such Affected
Lender to assign, at par plus accrued interest and fees, without recourse, all of its interest, rights, and obligations hereunder (including all of its Commitments and the Loans and other amounts at any time owing to it hereunder and the other Loan
Documents) to a bank or other institutional Lender specified by the Borrower, provided that (i) such assignment shall not conflict with or violate any law, rule or regulation or order of any court or other governmental authority,
(ii) the Borrower shall have received the written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, to such assignment, (iii) the Borrower shall have paid to the Affected Lender all monies (together
with amounts due such Affected Lender under Section 1.11 hereof as if the Loans owing to it were prepaid rather than assigned) owed hereunder other than such principal, interest, and fees accrued and owing to it hereunder, and (iv) the
assignment is entered into in accordance with the other requirements of Section 13.12 hereof. If the Borrower exercises its option hereunder to cause an assignment by any Affected Lender, such Affected Lender shall, promptly after receipt of
written notice of such election, execute and deliver all documentation necessary to effectuate such assignment in accordance with Section 13.12. In the event that an Affected Lender does not comply with the requirements of the immediately
preceding sentence within five Business Days after receipt of such notice, such Affected Lender hereby authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver such documentation as may be required to give effect to an assignment in
accordance with Section 13.12 on behalf of such Affected Lender and any such documentation so executed by the Administrative Agent shall be effective for purposes of documenting an assignment pursuant to Section 13.12.

 Section 1.14. [Intentionally Omitted]. 

Section 1.15. Defaulting Lenders. 

(a) Defaulting Lender Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender
becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law: 

(i) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or
consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders”. 

(ii) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees, or other amounts received by Administrative
Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 9 or otherwise) or received by Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 13.16 shall be applied at
such time or times as may be determined by Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to Administrative Agent hereunder; second, as Borrower may request (so long as no Default
or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Delayed Draw Term Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by Administrative Agent; third, if so
determined by Administrative Agent and Borrower, to be held in a Deposit Account controlled by Administrative Agent and released pro rata in order to satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Delayed
Draw Term Loans remaining available under this Agreement; fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a
result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of
competent jurisdiction obtained by Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court
of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (A) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Delayed Draw Term Loans in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (B) such
Delayed Draw Term Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 7.1 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Delayed Draw Term Loans of all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis
prior to being applied to the payment of any Delayed Draw Term Loans of such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Delayed Draw Term Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitments. Any payments, prepayments
or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. 

  
 8 

 (iii) Certain Fees. No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any
commitment fee pursuant to Section 2.1(a) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting
Lender). 
 (b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If Borrower and Administrative Agent agree in writing that a Lender is no
longer a Defaulting Lender, Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at
par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the Delayed Draw Term Loan
Commitments (without giving effect to Section 1.15(a)(iv)), and reimburse each such Lender for any costs of the type described in Section 1.11 incurred by any Lender as a result of such purchase, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a
Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except
to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting
Lender. 
 SECTION 2. FEES. 
 Section 2.1.
Fees. (a) Delayed Draw Commitment Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Lenders in accordance with their Delayed Draw Term Loan Percentages a commitment fee during the Delayed Draw
Term Loan Availability Period at the rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and the actual number of days elapsed) on the average daily Unused Delayed Draw Commitments. Such commitment fee shall be
payable quarterly in arrears on the second Business Day following each Quarterly Date in each year (commencing on the first such date occurring after the date hereof) and on the second Business Day after the expiration of the Delayed Draw Term Loan
Availability Period. 
 (b) Administrative Agent Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own
use and benefit, the fees agreed to between the Administrative Agent and the Borrower in a letter dated as of the Closing Date, or as otherwise agreed to in writing between them. 

  
 9 

 (c) Audit Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for its
own use and benefit reasonable charges for audits of the Collateral performed by the Administrative Agent or its agents or representatives in such amounts as the Administrative Agent may from time to time request (the Administrative Agent
acknowledging and agreeing that such charges shall be computed in the same manner as it at the time customarily uses for the assessment of charges for similar collateral audits); provided, however, that in the absence of any Default and Event
of Default, the Borrower shall not be required to pay the Administrative Agent for more than one (1) such audit per calendar year. 
 SECTION 3. PLACE
AND APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS. 
 Section 3.1. Place and Application of Payments. All payments of principal of and interest on the Loans
and of all other Obligations payable by the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, shall be made by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent by no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York, New York time) on the due date thereof at the
office of the Administrative Agent in New York, New York (or such other location as the Administrative Agent may designate to the Borrower) for the benefit of the Lender or Lenders entitled thereto. Any payments received after such time shall be
deemed to have been received by the Administrative Agent on the next Business Day. All such payments shall be made in immediately available funds at the place of payment without set-off or counterclaim. The Administrative Agent will promptly
thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest on Loans and any amount payable to any Lender to such Lender, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If the
Administrative Agent causes amounts to be distributed to the Lenders in reliance upon the assumption that the Borrower will make a scheduled payment and such scheduled payment is not so made, each Lender shall, on demand, repay to the Administrative
Agent the amount distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date such amount was distributed to such Lender and ending on (but excluding) the date such Lender repays such
amount to the Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to: (i) from the date the distribution was made to the date 2 Business Days after payment by such Lender is due hereunder, the Federal Funds Rate for each such day and (ii) from
the date 2 Business Days after the date such payment is due from such Lender to the date such payment is made by such Lender, the Base Rate in effect for each such day. 

Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, all payments and collections received in respect of the Obligations and all
proceeds of the Collateral received, in each instance, by the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, shall be remitted to the Administrative Agent and distributed as
follows (subject to the Intercreditor Agreement): 
 (a) first, to the payment of any outstanding costs and expenses incurred
by the Administrative Agent, and any security trustee therefor, in monitoring, verifying, protecting, preserving or enforcing the Liens on the Collateral, in protecting, preserving or enforcing rights under the Loan Documents, and in any event
including all costs and expenses of a character which the Borrower has agreed to pay the Administrative Agent under Section 13.15 hereof (such funds to be retained by the Administrative Agent for its own account unless it has previously been
reimbursed for such costs and expenses by the Lenders, in which event such amounts shall be remitted to the Lenders to reimburse them for payments theretofore made to the Administrative Agent); 

  
 10 

 (b) second, to the payment of any outstanding interest and fees due under the
Loan Documents to be allocated pro rata in accordance with the aggregate unpaid amounts owing to each holder thereof; 
 (c)
third, to the payment of principal of the Delayed Draw Term Loans; 
 (d) fourth, to the payment of all other unpaid
Obligations and all other indebtedness, obligations, and liabilities of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries secured by the Loan Documents to be allocated pro rata in accordance with the aggregate unpaid amounts owing to each holder thereof; 

(e) fifth, to the First Lien Agent to the extent required by the Intercreditor Agreement; and 

(f) finally, to the Borrower or whoever else may be lawfully entitled thereto. 

Section 3.2. Account Debit. The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to charge any of the Borrower’s
deposit accounts maintained with the Administrative Agent or its Affiliates for the amounts from time to time necessary to pay any then due Obligations; provided that the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agent shall
not be under an obligation to do so and the Administrative Agent shall not incur any liability to the Borrower or any other Person for the Administrative Agent’s failure to do so. 

SECTION 4. GUARANTIES AND COLLATERAL. 

Section 4.1. Guaranties. The payment and performance of the Obligations shall at all times be guaranteed by each direct and indirect
Domestic Subsidiary of the Borrower (individually a “Guarantor” and collectively the “Guarantors”) pursuant to Section 12 hereof or pursuant to one or more guaranty agreements in form and substance acceptable
to the Administrative Agent, as the same may be amended, modified or supplemented from time to time (individually a “Guaranty” and collectively the “Guaranties”). 

Section 4.2. Collateral. The Obligations shall be secured to the extent provided herein and in the Collateral Documents by
(a) valid, perfected and enforceable Liens on all right, title, and interest of the Borrower and the Guarantors in all capital stock and other equity interests held by such Person in each of its Domestic Subsidiaries, whether now owned or
hereafter formed or acquired, and all proceeds thereof, and (b) valid, perfected, and enforceable Liens on all right, title, and interest of the Borrower and each Guarantor in all personal property, fixtures, and to the extent provided in
Section 4.3 hereof, real estate, whether now owned or hereafter acquired or arising, and all proceeds thereof; provided, however, that: (i) until an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and thereafter until otherwise
required by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, Liens on local petty cash deposit accounts maintained by the Borrower and the Guarantors in proximity to their operations need not be perfected provided that the total amount on
deposit at any one time not so perfected shall not exceed $1,000,000 in the aggregate and Liens on payroll, withholding tax, or tax trust or fiduciary accounts maintained by the Borrower and the Guarantors need not be perfected provided the
total amount on deposit at any time does not exceed the current amount of their payroll liabilities, payroll taxes or other wage 

  
 11 

 
and benefit liabilities, (ii) until an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and thereafter until otherwise required by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, Liens on
vehicles which are subject to a certificate of title law need not be perfected provided that the total value of such property at any one time not so perfected shall not exceed $1,000,000 in the aggregate and (iii) until an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing and thereafter until otherwise required by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, Liens are not required to be granted or perfected on (A) Property of the Borrower and the Guarantors (other than
Property which is being pledged pursuant to the Security Agreement) located outside of the United States of America or Property as to which the grant or perfection of a Lien thereon would not be governed by the laws of the United States of America
or any State thereof, provided that the aggregate net book value of such Property at any one time not so encumbered does not exceed $1,000,000 in the aggregate and (B) goods in transit outside of the United States of America in the
ordinary course of business. The Borrower and the Guarantors acknowledge and agree that each Lien on the Collateral shall be granted by the Borrower and the Guarantors to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the holder of the Obligations (or,
to the extent contemplated by the Intercreditor Agreement, to the First Lien Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties) and shall be a valid and perfected Lien subject only to Liens permitted by Section 8.8 hereof, in each case pursuant to
one or more Collateral Documents from such Persons, each in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
 Section 4.3.
Liens on Real Property. In the event that the Borrower or any Guarantor owns or hereafter acquires any real property which, in the case of hereafter acquired property (a) has a fair market value greater than $1,000,000, or (b) is
contiguous to the Borrower’s or such Guarantor’s operations and has a fair market value greater than $500,000, the Borrower shall, or shall cause such Guarantor to: (i) execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a mortgage or
deed of trust in substantially the form of the Closing Date Mortgages (with such modifications thereto as are necessary to comply with local law and custom and are otherwise reasonably acceptable in form and substance to the Administrative Agent)
for the purpose of granting to the Administrative Agent (or a security trustee therefor) a Lien on such real property to secure the Borrower’s obligation to pay (or the applicable Guarantor’s obligation to pay, pursuant to and in
accordance with Section 12) the Obligations, (ii) pay all taxes, costs, and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in recording such mortgage or deed of trust, and (iii) supply to the Administrative Agent, at the
Borrower’s cost and expense, a survey, environmental report, hazard insurance policy, appraisal report, flood hazard determination certificates (and, if applicable, evidence of flood insurance that is in compliance with applicable law), and a
mortgagee’s policy of title insurance from First American Title Insurance Company or such other title insurer as shall be acceptable to the Administrative Agent insuring the validity of such mortgage or deed of trust and its status as a second
Lien (subject to Liens permitted by this Agreement) on the real property encumbered thereby and otherwise in form and substance acceptable to Administrative Agent and such other instruments, documents, certificates, and opinions reasonably required
by the Administrative Agent in connection therewith. The Lenders acknowledge that Carolina Starches, LLC and Penford Carolina, LLC shall not be required to grant mortgages to the Administrative Agent in respect of the real property owned and/or
leased by them on the Closing Date. 

  
 12 

 Section 4.4. Further Assurances. The Borrower agrees that it shall, and shall cause each
Guarantor to, from time to time at the request of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, execute and deliver such documents and do such acts and things as the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders may reasonably request in order to
provide for or perfect or protect such Liens on the Collateral. In the event the Borrower or any Guarantor forms or acquires any other Subsidiary after the date hereof, except as otherwise provided in Sections 4.1 and 4.2 above, the Borrower
shall promptly upon such formation or acquisition cause such newly formed or acquired Subsidiary to execute a Guaranty and such Collateral Documents as the Administrative Agent may then require, and the Borrower shall also deliver to the
Administrative Agent, or cause such Subsidiary to deliver to the Administrative Agent, at the Borrower’s cost and expense, such other instruments, documents, certificates, and opinions reasonably required by the Administrative Agent in
connection therewith.

Pricing Date. If the Borrower has not delivered its financial statements by 

  
 14 

 
the date such financial statements (and, in the case of the year-end financial statements, audit report) are required to be delivered under Section 8.5 hereof, until such financial
statements and audit report are delivered, the Applicable Margin shall be the highest Applicable Margin (i.e., the Total Leverage Ratio shall be deemed to be greater than 3.75 to 1.0). If the Borrower subsequently delivers such financial
statements before the next Pricing Date, the Applicable Margin established by such late delivered financial statements shall take effect from the date of delivery until the next Pricing Date. In all other circumstances, the Applicable Margin
established by such financial statements shall be in effect from the Pricing Date that occurs immediately after the end of the fiscal quarter covered by such financial statements until the next Pricing Date. Each determination of the Applicable

by the Borrower or any Subsidiary of any of the matters and things herein or therein provided for, (a) contravene or constitute a default under any provision of law or any judgment, injunction, order or decree binding upon the Borrower or any
Subsidiary or any provision of the organizational documents (e.g., charter, articles of incorporation or by-laws, articles of association or operating agreement, partnership agreement, or other similar document) of the Borrower or any
Subsidiary, (b) contravene or constitute a default under any covenant, indenture or agreement of or affecting the Borrower or any Subsidiary or any of its Property, in each case where such contravention or default, individually or in the

Section 8.22 the Borrower shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of Section 8.22 as of the relevant date of determination with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply therewith at such date, and the
applicable breach or default of the covenants in Section 8.22 that had occurred shall be deemed cured for the purposes of this Agreement. 
 SECTION
10. CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES. 
 Section 10.1. Change of Law. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document, if at any time any Change in Law makes it unlawful for any Lender to make or continue to maintain any Eurodollar Loans in the relevant currency or to perform its obligations as contemplated hereby, such Lender shall promptly give notice
thereof to the Borrower and such Lender’s obligations to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans under this Agreement shall be suspended until it is no longer unlawful for such Lender to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans in such currency. The
Borrower shall prepay on demand the outstanding principal amount of any such affected Eurodollar Loans, together with all interest accrued thereon and all other amounts then due and payable to such Lender under this Agreement; provided,
however, subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Borrower may then elect to borrow the principal amount of the affected Eurodollar Loans from such Lender by means of Base Rate Loans from such Lender, which Base Rate
Loans shall not be made ratably by the Lenders but only from such affected Lender. 
 Section 10.2. Unavailability of Deposits or
Inability to Ascertain, or Inadequacy of, LIBOR. If on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period for any Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans: 

(a) the Administrative Agent determines that deposits in the applicable currency (in the applicable amounts) are not being
offered to it in the interbank Eurodollar market for such Interest Period, or that by reason of circumstances affecting the interbank Eurodollar market adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable LIBOR, or 

  
 59 

 (b) the Required Lenders advise the Administrative Agent that (i) LIBOR as
determined by the Administrative Agent will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding their Eurodollar Loans for such Interest Period or (ii) that the making or funding of Eurodollar Loans become impracticable, then
the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders, whereupon until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the obligations of
the Lenders to make Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended. 
 Section 10.3. Increased Cost and Reduced Return. (a) If any Change
in Law: 
 (i) shall subject any Lender (or its Lending Office) to any tax, duty or other charge with respect to its
Eurodollar Loans, its Notes, or its obligation to make Eurodollar Loans, or shall change the basis of taxation of payments to any Lender (or its Lending Office) of the principal of or interest on its Eurodollar Loans or any other amounts due under
this Agreement or any other Loan Document in respect of its Eurodollar Loans or its obligation to make Eurodollar Loans (except for changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of such Lender or its Lending Office imposed by the jurisdiction
in which such Lender’s principal executive office or Lending Office is located); or 
 (ii) shall impose, modify or deem
applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement (including, without limitation, any such requirement imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, but excluding with respect to any
Eurodollar Loans any such requirement included in an applicable Eurocurrency Reserve Percentage) against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (or its Lending Office) or shall impose on any Lender (or its
Lending Office) or on the interbank market any other condition affecting its Eurodollar Loans, its Notes, or its obligation to make Eurodollar Loans; 
 and
the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender (or its Lending Office) of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender (or its Lending Office) under
this Agreement or under any other Loan Document with respect thereto, by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then, within 15 days after demand by such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall be obligated to
pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction. 

(b) If, after the date hereof, any Lender or the Administrative Agent shall have determined that the adoption of any applicable
law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy or liquidity requirements, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the
interpretation or administration thereof, or 

  
 60 

 
compliance by any Lender (or its Lending Office) or any Person controlling such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy or liquidity requirements (whether or not having
the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, has had the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such Person’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that
which such Lender or such Person could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Person’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be
material, then from time to time, within 15 days after demand by such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction. 

(c) A certificate of a Lender claiming compensation under this Section 10.3 and setting forth the additional amount or
amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive if reasonably determined. In determining such amount, such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. 

Section 10.4. Lending Offices. Each Lender may, at its option, elect to make its Loans hereunder at the branch, office or affiliate
specified on the appropriate signature page hereof (each a “Lending Office”) for each type of Loan available hereunder or at such other of its branches, offices or affiliates as it may from time to time elect and designate in a
written notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. To the extent reasonably possible, a Lender shall designate an alternative branch or funding office with respect to its Eurodollar Loans to reduce any liability of the Borrower to such
Lender under Section 10.3 hereof or to avoid the unavailability of Eurodollar Loans under Section 10.2 hereof, so long as such designation is not otherwise disadvantageous to the Lender. 

Section 10.5. Discretion of Lender as to Manner of Funding. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each Lender shall be
entitled to fund and maintain its funding of all or any part of its Loans in any manner it sees fit, it being understood, however, that for the purposes of this Agreement all determinations hereunder with respect to Eurodollar Loans shall be made as
if each Lender had actually funded and maintained each Eurodollar Loan through the purchase of deposits in the interbank eurodollar market having a maturity corresponding to such Loan’s Interest Period, and bearing an interest rate equal to
LIBOR for such Interest Period. 
 SECTION 11. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. 

Section 11.1. Appointment and Authorization of Administrative Agent. Each Lender hereby appoints Rabobank to act on its behalf as the
Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents and hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as Administrative Agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under the Loan Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent
by the terms thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Section are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and the Borrower and Guarantors shall not have rights as a
third-party beneficiary of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to
connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship
between contracting parties. 

  
 61 

 Section 11.2. Administrative Agent and its Affiliates. The Administrative Agent shall have
the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise or refrain from exercising such rights and power as though it were not the Administrative Agent. The
Administrative Agent and its affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower as if it were not the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents and
without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders. The term “Lender” as used herein and in all other Loan Documents, unless the context otherwise clearly requires, includes the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity as a
Lender. References in Section 1 hereof to the Administrative Agent’s Loans, or to the amount owing to the Administrative Agent for which an interest rate is being determined, refer to the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity as
a Lender. 
 Section 11.3. Action by Administrative Agent. If the Administrative Agent receives from the Borrower a written notice of
an Event of Default pursuant to Section 8.5 hereof, the Administrative Agent shall promptly give each of the Lenders written notice thereof. The obligations of the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents are only those expressly set forth
therein and in the Intercreditor Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action hereunder with respect to any Default or Event of Default, except as expressly provided
in Sections 9.2 and 9.5, and shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its
Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, the Administrative
Agent shall take such action to enforce its Lien on the Collateral and to preserve and protect the Collateral as may be directed by the Required Lenders. Unless and until the Required Lenders give such direction, the Administrative Agent may (but
shall not be obligated to) take or refrain from taking such actions as it deems appropriate and in the best interest of all the Lenders. In no event, however, shall the Administrative Agent be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the
opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or is in violation of applicable law or of any provision of any Loan Document (including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay
under any bankruptcy or insolvency law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any bankruptcy or insolvency law), and the Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully
justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder or under any other Loan Document unless it first receives any further assurances of its indemnification from the Lenders that it may require, including prepayment of any related expenses and any
other protection it requires against any and all costs, expense, and liability which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to assume that no Default or Event of
Default exists unless notified in writing to the contrary by a Lender or the Borrower. In all cases in which the Loan Documents do not require the Administrative Agent to take specific action, the Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in
using its discretion in failing to take or in taking any action thereunder. Any instructions of the Required Lenders, or of any other group of Lenders called for under the specific provisions of the Loan Documents, shall be binding upon all the
Secured Parties. 

  
 62 

 Section 11.4. Consultation with Experts. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal
counsel, independent public accountants, and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts. 

Section 11.5. Liability of Administrative Agent; Credit Decision. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Affiliated Parties
shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in connection with the Loan Documents: (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct (as
finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction). Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into or verify: (i) any
statement, warranty or representation made in connection with this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any Credit Event; (ii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants or agreements of the Borrower or any Subsidiary contained
herein or in any other Loan Document or the occurrence of any Default; (iii) the satisfaction of any condition specified in Section 7 hereof, except receipt of items required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to
Section 7; or (iv) the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability, perfection, value, worth or collectibility hereof or of any other Loan Document or of any other documents or writing furnished in connection with any Loan
Document or of any Collateral; and the Administrative Agent makes no representation of any kind or character with respect to any such matter mentioned in this sentence. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under any of the Loan
Documents by or through employees, agents, and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be answerable to the Lenders, the Borrower, or any other Person for the default or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected with reasonable care. The
Administrative Agent shall not incur any liability by acting in reliance upon any notice, consent, certificate, other document or statement (whether written or oral and including by telephone and any electronic message, Internet or intranet website
posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine or to be sent by the proper party or parties. In particular and without limiting any of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall have no responsibility for confirming the accuracy of
any compliance certificate or other document or instrument received by it under the Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent may treat the payee of any Note as the holder thereof until written notice of transfer shall have been filed with the
Administrative Agent signed by such payee in form satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Each Lender acknowledges that it has independently and without reliance on the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based upon such information,
investigations and inquiries as it deems appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to extend credit to the Borrower in the manner set forth in the Loan Documents. It shall be the responsibility of each Lender to keep itself informed as
to the creditworthiness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, and the Administrative Agent shall have no liability to any Lender with respect thereto. 

  
 63 

 Section 11.6. Indemnity. The Lenders shall ratably, in accordance with their respective
Percentages, indemnify and hold the Administrative Agent, and its Affiliated Parties, and representatives harmless from and against any liabilities, losses, costs or expenses suffered or incurred by it under any Loan Document or in connection with
the transactions contemplated thereby, regardless of when asserted or arising, except to the extent they are promptly reimbursed for the same by the Borrower and except to the extent that any event giving rise to a claim was caused by the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of the party seeking to be indemnified (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction). The obligations of the Lenders under this Section shall survive termination of this Agreement. The Administrative
Agent shall be entitled to offset amounts received for the account of a Lender under this Agreement against unpaid amounts due from such Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder (whether as fundings of participations, indemnities or otherwise),
but shall not be entitled to offset against amounts owed to the Administrative Agent by any Lender arising outside of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 

Section 11.7. Resignation of Administrative Agent and Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign at any time
by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation of the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent subject, so long as no Default or Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to the Borrower’s prior written consent (which will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, and shall
have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which may
be any Lender hereunder or any commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $200,000,000 subject, so long as no Default or Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing, to the Borrower’s prior written consent (which will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Upon the acceptance of its appointment as the Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor Administrative
Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations thereunder.
After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 11 and all protective provisions of the other Loan Documents shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or
omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent, but no successor Administrative Agent shall in any event be liable or responsible for any actions of its predecessor. If the Administrative Agent resigns and no successor is appointed, the
rights and obligations of such Administrative Agent shall be automatically assumed by the Required Lenders and (i) the Borrower shall be directed to make all payments due each Lender hereunder directly to such Lender and (ii) the
Administrative Agent’s rights in the Collateral Documents shall be assigned without representation, recourse or warranty to the Lenders as their interests may appear. 

Section 11.8. Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers
hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub agents appointed by the Administrative Agent (or through the First Lien Agent as may be set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement). The Administrative Agent and any such sub
agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers 

  
 64 

 
by or through their respective Affiliated Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Section 11 shall apply to any such sub agent and to the Affiliated Parties of the Administrative Agent
and any such sub agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the
Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub agents. 
 Section 11.9.
[Intentionally Omitted]. 
 Section 11.10. Designation of Additional Agents. The Administrative Agent shall have the continuing
right, for purposes hereof, at any time and from time to time to designate one or more of the Lenders (and/or its or their Affiliates) as “syndication agents,” “documentation agents,” “arrangers,” or other designations
for purposes hereto, but such designation shall have no substantive effect, and such Lenders and their Affiliates shall have no additional powers, duties or responsibilities as a result thereof. 

Section 11.11. Authorization to Release or Subordinate or Limit Liens. The Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized by
each of the Lenders to (a) release any Lien covering any Collateral that is sold, transferred, or otherwise disposed of in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the relevant Collateral Documents (including a sale,
transfer, or disposition permitted by the terms of Section 8.10 hereof or which has otherwise been consented to in accordance with Section 13.13 hereof), (b) release or subordinate any Lien on Collateral consisting of goods financed
with purchase money indebtedness or under a Capital Lease to the extent such purchase money indebtedness or Capitalized Lease Obligation, and the Lien securing the same, are permitted by Sections 8.7(b) and 8.8(d) hereof, (c) reduce or limit
the amount of the indebtedness secured by any particular item of Collateral to an amount not less than the estimated value thereof to the extent necessary to reduce mortgage registry, filing and similar tax, (d) release Liens on the Collateral
following Full Satisfaction of the Obligations, (e) confirm in writing whether specific items or types of the Borrower’s or any Guarantor’s property are or are not included in the Collateral pursuant to the Loan Documents, and
(f) enter into the Intercreditor Agreement and perform all obligations thereunder, and to enter into any amendments of the Intercreditor Agreement which do not materially modify the rights of the Secured Parties thereunder. Each Secured Party
agrees to be bound by the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and each Secured Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that, as of the date hereof, Rabobank will be acting as the First Lien Agent, including under the Intercreditor Agreement. 

The Administrative Agent, at the sole expense of the Borrower, shall execute and deliver to the Borrower all releases or other documents
reasonably necessary or desirable to evidence or effect any release of Liens authorized under this Section; provided, that (i) the Administrative Agent shall not be required to execute any document necessary to evidence such release (other than
a release pursuant to clause (d) above) unless a responsible officer of the Borrower shall certify in writing to the Administrative Agent that the transaction requiring such release is permitted under the Loan Documents (it being acknowledged
that the Administrative Agent may rely on any such certificate without further inquiry), (ii) the Administrative Agent shall not be required to execute any document necessary to evidence such release on terms that, in the Administrative
Agent’s opinion, would expose the Administrative Agent to liability or create any 

  
 65 

 
obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Lien without recourse, representation, or warranty, and (iii) no such release in connection with a permitted sale or
transfer shall in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the Obligations or any Liens (other than those expressly being released) upon all interests retained by the Borrower and the Guarantors, including, the proceeds of any such sale, all of which
shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral. The Administrative Agent agrees with the Borrower that upon the Full Satisfaction of the Obligations, the Administrative Agent shall release all Liens on the Collateral, at the Borrower’s
cost and expense and the Administrative Agent agrees with the Borrower that the costs of the Administrative Agent and its agents that are passed on to the Borrower shall be reasonable. 

Section 11.12. Authorization to Enter into, and Enforcement of, the Collateral Documents. The Administrative Agent is hereby
irrevocably authorized by each of the Lenders to execute and deliver the Collateral Documents (including control agreements and collateral access agreements which may be delivered from time to time) on behalf of each of the Lenders and their
Affiliates and to take such action and exercise such powers under the Collateral Documents as the Administrative Agent considers appropriate and, in connection with any such agreements with a third party other than the Borrower and its Affiliates,
to undertake indemnification and expense reimbursement obligations as may be customary for such agreements, provided the Administrative Agent shall not amend the Collateral Documents in any manner which materially and adversely modifies the rights
of the Secured Parties thereunder unless such amendment is agreed to in writing by the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders if required by Section 13.13. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that it will be bound by the terms and conditions of
the Collateral Documents upon the execution and delivery thereof by the Administrative Agent. Except as otherwise specifically provided for herein, no Lender (or its Affiliates) other than the Administrative Agent shall have the right to institute
any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law for the foreclosure or other realization upon any Collateral or for the execution of any trust or power in respect of the Collateral or for the appointment of a receiver or for the enforcement of
any other remedy under the Collateral Documents; it being understood and intended that no one or more of the Lenders (or their Affiliates) shall have any right in any manner whatsoever to affect, disturb or prejudice the Lien of the Administrative
Agent (or any security trustee therefor) under the Collateral Documents by its or their action or to enforce any right thereunder, and that all proceedings at law or in equity shall be instituted, had, and maintained by the Administrative Agent (or
its security trustee) in the manner provided for in the relevant Collateral Documents for the benefit of the Lenders and their Affiliates. 

Section 11.13. Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any bankruptcy or
insolvency law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Borrower or Guarantor, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and
irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise: 

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and
all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to 

  
 66 

 
have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent
and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and 

(b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

 and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is
hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount
due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents. 

SECTION 12. THE GUARANTEES. 
 Section 12.1.
The Guarantees. To induce the Lenders to provide the credits described herein and in consideration of benefits expected to accrue to the Borrower by reason of the Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments and for other good and valuable consideration,
receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, each Subsidiary party hereto in accordance with Section 4.1 hereof (including any Subsidiary formed or acquired after the Closing Date executing an Additional Guarantor Supplement in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit F or such other form acceptable to the Administrative Agent) hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees jointly and severally to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and their Affiliates, the due and punctual payment of all
present and future Obligations, including, but not limited to, the due and punctual payment of principal of and interest on the Loans, and the due and punctual payment of all other Obligations now or hereafter owed by the Borrower under the Loan
Documents as and when the same shall become due and payable, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, or otherwise, according to the terms hereof and thereof. This is a guarantee of payment and not of collection. In case of failure by the
Borrower or other obligor punctually to pay any Obligations, hereby, each Guarantor hereby unconditionally agrees to make such payment or to cause such payment to be made punctually as and when the same shall become due and payable, whether at
stated maturity, by acceleration, or otherwise, and as if such payment were made by the Borrower or such obligor. 
 Section 12.2.
Guarantee Unconditional. The obligations of each Guarantor under this Section 12 shall be unconditional and absolute and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, shall not be released, discharged, or otherwise affected by: 

(a) any extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, waiver, or release in respect of any obligation of the Borrower or other
obligor or of any other guarantor under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or by operation of law or otherwise; 

  
 67 

 (b) any modification or amendment of or supplement to this Agreement or any other
Loan Document; 
 (c) any change in the corporate existence, structure, or ownership of, or any insolvency, bankruptcy,
reorganization, or other similar proceeding affecting, the Borrower or other obligor, any other guarantor, or any of their respective assets, or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of the Borrower or other obligor or of any other
guarantor contained in any Loan Document; 
 (d) the existence of any claim, set-off, or other rights which the Borrower or
other obligor or any other guarantor may have at any time against the Administrative Agent, any Lender, or any other Person, whether or not arising in connection herewith; 

(e) any failure to assert, or any assertion of, any claim or demand or any exercise of, or failure to exercise, any rights or
remedies against the Borrower or other obligor, any other guarantor, or any other Person or Property; 
 (f) any application
of any sums by whomsoever paid or howsoever realized to any obligation of the Borrower or other obligor, regardless of what obligations of the Borrower or other obligor remain unpaid, other than the payment in full of the indebtedness, obligations
and liabilities guarantied hereby, but subject to the last sentence of Section 12.3; 
 (g) any invalidity or
unenforceability relating to or against the Borrower or other obligor or any other guarantor for any reason of this Agreement or of any other Loan Document or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit the payment by the
Borrower or other obligor or any other guarantor of the principal of or interest on any Note or any other amount payable under the Loan Documents; or 

(h) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by the Administrative Agent, any Lender, or any other Person or any
other circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this paragraph, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the obligations of any Guarantor under this Section 12. 

Section 12.3. Discharge Only upon Full Satisfaction; Reinstatement in Certain Circumstances. Each Guarantor’s obligations under
this Section 12 shall remain in full force and effect until the Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments have been Fully Satisfied, and the principal of and interest on the Loans and all other amounts payable by the Borrower and the Guarantors under
this Agreement and all other Loan Documents have been Fully Satisfied. If at any time any payment of the principal of or interest on any Note or any other amount payable by the Borrower or other obligor or any Guarantor under the Loan Documents is
rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, or reorganization of the Borrower or other obligor or of any guarantor, or otherwise, each Guarantor’s obligations under this Section 12 with respect to
such payment shall be reinstated at such time as though such payment had become due but had not been made at such time. 

  
 68 

 Section 12.4. Subrogation. Each Guarantor agrees it will not exercise any rights which it
may acquire by way of subrogation by any payment made hereunder, or otherwise, until all the Obligations shall have been Fully Satisfied. If any amount shall be paid to a Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time prior to the Full
Satisfaction of the Obligations, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders or be credited and applied upon
the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
 Section 12.5. Waivers. Each
Guarantor irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest, and any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by the Administrative Agent, any Lender, or any other Person
against the Borrower or other obligor, another guarantor, or any other Person. 
 Section 12.6. Limit on Recovery. Notwithstanding
any other provision hereof, the right of recovery against each Guarantor under this Section 12 shall not exceed $1.00 less than the lowest amount which would render such Guarantor’s obligations under this Section 12 void or voidable
under applicable law, including, without limitation, fraudulent conveyance law. 
 Section 12.7. Stay of Acceleration. If
acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by the Borrower or other obligor under this Agreement or any other Loan Document is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or such obligor, all such amounts
otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall nonetheless be payable by the Guarantors hereunder forthwith on demand by the Administrative Agent made at the request of the Required Lenders.

 Section 12.8. Benefit to Guarantors. The Borrower and the Guarantors are engaged in related businesses and integrated to such an
extent that the financial strength and flexibility of the Borrower has a direct impact on the success of each Guarantor. Each Guarantor will derive substantial direct and indirect benefit from the extensions of credit hereunder. 

Section 12.9. Guarantor Covenants. Each Guarantor shall take such action as the Borrower is required by this Agreement to cause such
Guarantor to take, and shall refrain from taking such action as the Borrower is required by this Agreement to prohibit such Guarantor from taking. Each Guarantor (each referred to herein as a “Subordinated Creditor”) hereby
subordinates the payment of all indebtedness, obligations, and liabilities of the Borrower or other Guarantor owing to such Subordinated Creditor, whether now existing or hereafter arising, to the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all
Obligations. During the existence of any Event of Default, subject to Section 12.4 above, any such indebtedness, obligation, or liability of the Borrower or other Guarantor owing to such Subordinated Creditor shall be enforced and performance
received by such Subordinated Creditor as trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties and the proceeds thereof shall be paid over to the Administrative Agent for application to the Obligations (whether or not then due), but without reducing or
affecting in any manner the liability of such Guarantor under this Section 12. 

  
 69 

 SECTION 13. MISCELLANEOUS. 

Section 13.1. Taxes. 

(a) Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 13.1, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

 (b) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of Borrower or any Guarantor
under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction
or withholding of any tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant
Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by Borrower or the applicable Guarantor shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made
(including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made. 

(c) Payment of Other Taxes by Borrower and the Guarantors. Borrower and the Guarantors shall timely pay to the relevant
Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes. 

(d) Indemnification by Borrower and the Guarantors. Borrower and the Guarantors shall jointly and severally indemnify
each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or
required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant
Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent), or by Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive
absent manifest error. 
 (e) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify Administrative
Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that Borrower or any Guarantor has not already indemnified Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and
without limiting the obligation of Borrower or the Guarantors to do so), (ii) any taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 13.11 relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register, and
(iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not
such taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by Administrative Agent

  
 70 

 
shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or
otherwise payable by Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to Administrative Agent under this Section 13.1(e). 

(f) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of taxes by Borrower or any Guarantor to a
Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 13.1(f), Borrower or such Guarantor shall deliver to Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy
of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent. 

(g) Status of Lenders. 

(i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax with respect to payments made under any
Loan Document shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative
Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by
applicable law or reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as will enable Borrower or Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution, and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in clauses (A), (B), and (D) of Section 13.1(g)(ii))
shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution, or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such
Lender. 
 (ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, 

(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such
Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup
withholding tax; 
 (B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower and
Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of
Borrower or Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable: 

  
 71 

 (1) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax
treaty to which the United States is a party (I) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S.
federal withholding tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (II) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal
withholding tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty; 
 (2)
executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI; 
 (3) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for
portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (I) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit 13.1-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the
Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of Borrower or the Guarantors within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a
“U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (II) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable; or 

(4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form
W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit 13.1-2 or Exhibit 13.1-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable;
provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate
substantially in the form of Exhibit 13.1-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner; 
 (C) any Foreign Lender
shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this
Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed 

  
 72 

 
by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by
applicable law to permit Borrower or Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and 

(D) if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if
such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent at the
time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such
additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as may be necessary for Borrower and Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such
Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. 

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such
form or certification or promptly notify Borrower and Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. 
 (h)
Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 13.1 (including by the payment
of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 13.1), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the taxes giving rise to such
refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request
of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 13.1(h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such
indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 13.1(h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party
pursuant to this Section 13.1(h) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such
refund had not been deducted, withheld, or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such tax had never been paid. This Section 13.1(h) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to
make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person. 

  
 73 

 (i) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 13.1
shall survive the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction, or discharge of all obligations under any Loan
Document. 
 Section 13.2. No Waiver, Cumulative Remedies. No delay or failure on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender
or on the part of the holder or holders of any of the Obligations in the exercise of any power or right under any Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof or as an acquiescence in any default, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any
power or right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other power or right. The rights and remedies hereunder of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and of the holder or holders of any of the Obligations are
cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies which any of them would otherwise have. 
 Section 13.3. Non-Business
Days. If any payment hereunder becomes due and payable on a day which is not a Business Day, the due date of such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day on which date such payment shall be due and payable. In the case of
any payment of principal falling due on a day which is not a Business Day, interest on such principal amount shall continue to accrue during such extension at the rate per annum then in effect, which accrued amount shall be due and payable on the
next scheduled date for the payment of interest. 
 Section 13.4. Documentary Taxes. The Borrower agrees to pay on demand any
documentary, stamp or similar taxes payable in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including interest and penalties, in the event any such taxes are assessed, irrespective of when such assessment is made and whether or not any
credit is then in use or available hereunder. 
 Section 13.5. Survival of Representations. All representations and warranties made
herein or in any other Loan Document or in certificates given pursuant hereto or thereto shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and shall continue in full force and effect with respect to the date as
of which they were made as long as any credit is in use or available hereunder. 
 Section 13.6. Survival of Indemnities. All
indemnities and other provisions relative to reimbursement to the Lenders of amounts sufficient to protect the yield of the Lenders with respect to the Loans, including, but not limited to, Sections 1.11, 10.3, 13.1, and 13.15 hereof, shall
survive the termination of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the payment of the Obligations. 
 Section 13.7. Sharing of
Set-Off. Each Lender agrees with each other Lender a party hereto that if such Lender shall receive and retain any payment, whether by set-off or application of deposit balances or otherwise, on any of the Loans in excess of its ratable share of
payments 

  
 74 

 
on all such Obligations then outstanding to the Lenders, then such Lender shall purchase for cash at face value, but without recourse, ratably from each of the other Lenders such amount of the
Loans, or participations therein, held by each such other Lenders (or interest therein) as shall be necessary to cause such Lender to share such excess payment ratably with all the other Lenders; provided, however: 

(a) that if any such purchase is made by any Lender, and if such excess payment or part thereof is thereafter recovered from
such purchasing Lender, the related purchases from the other Lenders shall be rescinded ratably and the purchase price restored as to the portion of such excess payment so recovered, but without interest, and 

(b) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to
and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), or (y) 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 permitted by this Agreement. 
 Section 13.8. Notices. Except as
otherwise specified herein, all notices and communications (“Communications”) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall be in writing (including, without limitation, notice by email or telecopy) and shall be delivered by hand or

telecopy or electronic transmission has been received by the sender, (ii) if given by mail, 5 days after such communication is deposited in the mail, certified or registered with return receipt requested, addressed as aforesaid or (iii) if

Guarantor relating to the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default is delivered through electronic communications, a courtesy copy of such notice shall thereafter also be sent via overnight courier to the address noted above. 

Section 13.9. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, and by the different parties hereto on
separate counterpart signature pages, and all such counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. 

Section 13.10. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Borrower and the Guarantors and their successors and
assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders and the benefit of their respective successors and assigns, including any subsequent holder of any of the Obligations. The Borrower and the Guarantors may
not assign any of their rights or obligations under any Loan Document without the written consent of all of the Lenders. 
 Section
13.11. Participants. Each Lender shall have the right at its own cost to grant participations (to be evidenced by one or more agreements or certificates of participation) in the Loans made and/or Commitments held by such Lender at any time and
from time to time to one or more Eligible Assignees, subject to the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless (x) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such
participation or (y) such participation is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; provided that no such participation shall relieve any Lender of any of its obligations under this Agreement, and, provided,
further that no such participant shall have any rights under this Agreement except as provided in this Section, and the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation or responsibility to such participant. Any agreement pursuant to which such
participation is granted shall provide that the granting Lender shall retain the sole right and responsibility to enforce the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents including, without limitation, the right to
approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents, except that such agreement may provide that such Lender will not agree to any modification, amendment or waiver of the Loan Documents that would reduce the amount
of or postpone any fixed date for payment of any Obligation in which such participant has an interest. Any party to which such a participation has been granted shall have the benefits of Section 1.11, Section 10.3 and Section 13.1
hereof. The 

  
 76 

 
Borrower authorizes each Lender to disclose to any participant or prospective participant under this Section any financial or other information pertaining to the Borrower or any Subsidiary
thereof, provided that such participant or prospective participant shall have agreed in writing prior to its receipt of such information to maintain all such information confidential and not to disclose such information to any other Person
except any such information (a) that has become generally available to the public, (b) if required or appropriate in any report, statement or testimony submitted to any regulatory body having or claiming to have jurisdiction over such
Lender, (c) if required or appropriate in response to any summons or subpoena or in connection with any litigation or (d) in order to comply with any law, order, regulation or ruling applicable to such Lender. Each Lender that sells a
participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in
the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any
participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such
Commitment, Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each
Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as
Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. 
 Section 13.12. Assignments.
(a) Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it);
provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions: 
 (i) Minimum Amounts.
(A) In the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no
minimum amount need be assigned; and (B) in any case not described in subsection (a)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Commitment or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the
Loans 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 the Administrative Agent or, if “Effective Date” is specified in the
Assignment and Acceptance, as of the Effective Date) shall not be less than $5,000,000 and shall be an integral multiple of $500,000, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the
Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); 
 (ii) Proportionate
Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to its Delayed Draw Term Loans and its Delayed Draw Term
Commitment. 

  
 77 

 (iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment
except to the extent required by Section 13.12(a)(i)(B) and, in addition: 
 (A) the consent of the Borrower (such
consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (y) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an
Approved Fund; and 
 (B) the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed)
shall be required for assignments if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender. 

(iv) Assignment and Acceptance. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an
Assignment and Acceptance in the form of Exhibit G (an “Assignment and Acceptance”), together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, and the assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an
Administrative Questionnaire. 
 (v) No Assignment to Borrower or Parent. No such assignment shall be made to the
Borrower or any of its Affiliates, Joint Ventures or Subsidiaries. 
 (vi) No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such
assignment shall be made to a natural person. 
 Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 13.12(b)
hereof, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and
obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an
Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 13.6 and 13.15 with
respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section shall be treated for purposes of
this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 13.11 hereof. 

(b) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at
one of its offices in New York, 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 Commitments of, and principal

  
 78 

 
amounts of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent, and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be
available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

(c) Any Lender may at any time pledge or grant a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to
secure obligations of such Lender, including any such pledge or grant to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or grant of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or grant of a security interest
shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or secured party for such Lender as a party hereto; provided further, however, the right of any such pledgee or grantee (other than any Federal
Reserve Bank) to further transfer all or any portion of the rights pledged or granted to it, whether by means of foreclosure or otherwise, shall be at all times subject to the terms of this Agreement. 

Section 13.13. Amendments. Any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents may be amended or waived if, but only if, such
amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by (a) the Borrower, (b) the Required Lenders, and (c) if the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent are affected thereby, the Administrative Agent; provided that: 

(i) no amendment or waiver pursuant to this Section 13.13 shall (A) increase or extend any Commitment of any Lender
without the consent of such Lender or (B) reduce the amount of or postpone the date for any scheduled payment of any principal of or interest on any Loan or of any fee payable hereunder or any other amount payable under the Loan Documents
without the consent of the Lender to which such payment is owing or which has committed to make such Loan hereunder; 
 (ii)
no amendment or waiver pursuant to this Section 13.13 shall, unless signed by each Lender, change the definitions of Delayed Draw Termination Date or Required Lenders, change the provisions of this Section 13.13, release any material
guarantor or any substantial part of the Collateral (except as otherwise provided for in the Loan Documents), or affect the number of Lenders required to take any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document; and 

(iii) no amendment to Section 12 hereof shall be made without the consent of the Guarantor(s) affected thereby. 

  
 79 

 Section 13.14. Headings. Section headings used in this Agreement are for reference only
and shall not affect the construction of this Agreement. 
 Section 13.15. Costs and Expenses; Indemnification. (a) Except as
otherwise provided hereunder, the Borrower agrees to pay all reasonable, actual out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, negotiation, syndication, and administration of the Loan Documents,
including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent, in connection with the preparation and execution of the Loan Documents, and any amendment, waiver or consent related thereto, whether or not
the transactions contemplated herein are consummated, together with any fees and charges suffered or incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with periodic environmental audits, fixed asset appraisals, title insurance policies, collateral
filing fees and lien searches. The Borrower further agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender, and their respective Affiliated Parties, financial advisors, and consultants against all losses, claims, damages, penalties, judgments,
liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, all reasonable expenses of litigation or preparation therefor, whether or not the indemnified Person is a party thereto, or any settlement arrangement arising from or relating to any such
litigation) which any of them may pay or incur arising out of or relating to any Loan Document or any of the transactions contemplated thereby or the direct or indirect application or proposed application of the proceeds of any Loan, other than
those which arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party claiming indemnification (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction). The Borrower, upon demand by the Administrative Agent or a Lender at any time,
shall reimburse the Administrative Agent or such Lender for any legal or other expenses incurred in connection with investigating or defending against any of the foregoing (including any settlement costs relating to the foregoing) except if the same
is directly due to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party to be indemnified (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction). The obligations of the Borrower under this Section shall survive the termination of this
Agreement. 
 (b) The Borrower unconditionally agrees to forever indemnify, defend and hold harmless, and covenants not to
sue for any claim for contribution against, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and any Affiliated Parties for any damages, costs, loss or expense, including without limitation, response, remedial or removal costs, arising out of any of the
following: (i) any presence, release, threatened release or disposal of any hazardous or toxic substance or petroleum by the Borrower or any Subsidiary or otherwise occurring on or with respect to its Property (whether owned or leased),
(ii) the operation or violation of any environmental law, whether federal, state, or local, and any regulations promulgated thereunder, by the Borrower or any Subsidiary or otherwise occurring on or with respect to its Property (whether owned
or leased), (iii) any claim for personal injury or property damage in connection with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or otherwise occurring on or with respect to its Property (whether owned or leased), and (iv) the inaccuracy or breach of
any environmental representation, warranty or covenant by the Borrower or any Subsidiary made herein or in any other Loan Document evidencing or securing any Obligations or setting forth terms and conditions applicable thereto or otherwise relating
thereto, except for damages arising from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the party claiming indemnification. This indemnification shall survive the payment and satisfaction of all Obligations and the termination of this Agreement, and
shall remain in force beyond the expiration of any applicable statute of limitations and payment or satisfaction in full of any single claim under this indemnification. This indemnification shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of the
Borrower and shall inure to the benefit of Administrative Agent and the Lenders directors, officers, employees, agents, and collateral trustees, and their successors and assigns. 

  
 80 

 Section 13.16. Set-off. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under
applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, each Lender and each subsequent holder of any Obligation is hereby authorized by the Borrower and each Guarantor at any time or from time to
time, without notice to the Borrower or such Guarantor or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set-off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, including, but not limited to,
indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured, but not including trust accounts, and in whatever currency denominated) and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by that Lender or that subsequent holder to
or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or such Guarantor, whether or not matured, against and on account of the Obligations of the Borrower or such Guarantor to that Lender or that subsequent holder under the Loan Documents, including, but
not limited to, all claims of any nature or description arising out of or connected with the Loan Documents, irrespective of whether or not (a) that Lender or that subsequent holder shall have made any demand hereunder or (b) the principal
of or the interest on the Loans or Notes and other amounts due hereunder shall have become due and payable pursuant to Section 9 and although said obligations and liabilities, or any of them, may be contingent or unmatured. 

Section 13.17. Entire Agreement. The Loan Documents constitute the entire understanding of the parties thereto with respect to the
subject matter thereof and any prior agreements, whether written or oral, with respect thereto are superseded hereby. 
 Section 13.18.
Governing Law. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents (except as otherwise specified therein), and the rights and duties of the parties hereto, shall be governed by and construed and determined in accordance with the internal laws of the
State of New York. 
 Section 13.19. Severability of Provisions. Any provision of any Loan Document which is unenforceable in any
jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. All
rights, remedies and powers provided in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable mandatory provisions of law, and all the provisions of this Agreement
and other Loan Documents are intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of law which may be controlling and to be limited to the extent necessary so that they will not render this Agreement or the other Loan Documents invalid or
unenforceable. 
 Section 13.20. Excess Interest. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan
Document, no such provision shall require the payment or permit the collection of any amount of interest in excess of the maximum amount of interest permitted by applicable law to be charged for the use or detention, or the forbearance in the
collection, of all or any portion of the Loans or other obligations outstanding under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (“Excess Interest”). If any Excess Interest is provided for, or is adjudicated to 

  
 81 

 
be provided for, herein or in any other Loan Document, then in such event (a) the provisions of this Section shall govern and control, (b) neither the Borrower nor any guarantor or
endorser shall be obligated to pay any Excess Interest, (c) any Excess Interest that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have received hereunder shall, at the option of the Administrative Agent, be (i) applied as a credit against
the then outstanding principal amount of Obligations hereunder and accrued and unpaid interest thereon (not to exceed the maximum amount permitted by applicable law), (ii) refunded to the Borrower, or (iii) any combination of the
foregoing, (d) the interest rate payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be automatically subject to reduction to the maximum lawful contract rate allowed under applicable usury laws (the “Maximum Rate”), and
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to have been, and shall be, reformed and modified to reflect such reduction in the relevant interest rate, and (e) neither the Borrower nor any guarantor or endorser shall have any
action against the Administrative Agent or any Lender for any damages whatsoever arising out of the payment or collection of any Excess Interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if for any period of time interest on any of Borrower’s Obligations
is calculated at the Maximum Rate rather than the applicable rate under this Agreement, and thereafter such applicable rate becomes less than the Maximum Rate, the rate of interest payable on the Borrower’s Obligations shall remain at the
Maximum Rate until the Lenders have received the amount of interest which such Lenders would have received during such period on the Borrower’s Obligations had the rate of interest not been limited to the Maximum Rate during such period. 

Section 13.21. Construction. NOTHING CONTAINED HEREIN SHALL
BE DEEMED OR CONSTRUED TO PERMIT ANY ACT OR OMISSION WHICH IS
PROHIBITED BY THE TERMS OF ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, THE

IN SUBSTITUTION FOR THE COVENANTS AND AGREEMENTS CONTAINED IN THE OTHER
LOAN DOCUMENTS. 
 Section 13.22. Lender’s Obligations Several. The obligations of the Lenders
hereunder are several and not joint. Nothing contained in this Agreement and no action taken by the Lenders pursuant hereto shall be deemed to constitute the Lenders a partnership, association, joint venture or other entity.

jurisdiction of any New York State or federal court sitting in New York City and any appellate court from any thereof for purposes of all legal proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby. The Borrower and the Guarantors irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which they may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such proceeding brought in such a court
and any claim that any such proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. THE BORROWER, THE GUARANTORS, THE ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENT, AND THE LENDERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO
TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING
TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREBY.

Exhibit 10.1

TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF FIXED ALLOWANCE – UK

		
	1.1
	With effect from 1 January 2014 or, if later, the date your employment with the Company or assignment to the UK commenced, you are eligible to receive a fixed allowance (the Allowance) subject to the payment terms set out below. The annual amount of the Allowance has been communicated to you separately.

		
	1.2
	The Allowance will be payable in cash and subject to all applicable statutory deductions, including income tax and social security contributions (and, if you are on an expatriate assignment, any applicable hypothetical tax deductions). The Company may also decide in its absolute discretion at any time to pay all or part of the Allowance other than in cash, for example in the common stock of JPMorgan Chase & Co and/or impose additional time vesting requirements on any such stock.

		
	1.3
	The Allowance will be payable in two (2) equal instalments (each an Instalment) in the next available payroll after the end of the second quarter (in respect of the period from 1 January to 30 June) and fourth quarter (in respect of the period from 1 July to 31 December) of the Company’s financial year (each a Payment Period). In the case of any Instalment due to you in respect of the Payment Period from 1 January 2014 to 30 June 2014, this shall be payable in the August 2014 payroll or, if later, the next available payroll after you confirm your acceptance of these terms and conditions in the format required by the Company.

		
	1.4
	In order to be eligible for and to receive an Instalment of the Allowance you must be in employment on the last day of the Payment Period (the Relevant Date). You will not be eligible to receive any part of an Instalment if, on or before the Relevant Date for that Instalment, your employment has been terminated (with or without notice) by you or by the Company. If you are under notice of termination of your employment on a Relevant Date (whether the notice was given or received) the Instalment will be pro-rated to reflect the period for which you worked prior to the date notice was given or received as a proportion of the total period to which the Instalment relates.

		
	1.5
	The Company has the express right to suspend eligibility to and payment of any Instalment in the event that you are the subject of a disciplinary investigation or procedure which, may lead to a formal disciplinary sanction, such suspension to last until a reasonable period following the conclusion of that investigation or procedure.

		
	1.6
	In the event that, following a disciplinary investigation or procedure of which you are the subject, your employment is terminated, the Company has the express right to determine that you will not be entitled to the payment of any Instalment that was suspended under 1.5 above. 

		
	1.7
	The Company reserves the right to review from time to time the terms of the Allowance (including the quantum of the Allowance). In undertaking such a review, the Company would not take account of your personal performance but may take account of such other factors as it thinks fit including but not limited to:

		
	(a)
	changes in the Company’s regulatory obligations;

		
	(b)
	changes in the external labour market;

		
	(c)
	the Company’s compensation philosophy and business strategy; 

		
	(d)
	any change in the size and/or scope of your role, responsibilities or experience including if you cease to be Identified Staff / Code Staff; and

		
	(e)
	you starting or ending an expatriate assignment.

For the avoidance of doubt, if you and the Company agree a permanent change to the terms and conditions of your employment (and/or, if applicable, any expatriate assignment), this may result in a change to the terms and conditions of the Allowance (including the quantum of the Allowance).
		
	1.8
	Payment of the Allowance for any period does not guarantee the payment or level of the Allowance in any subsequent period and accordingly the Company may reduce or withdraw completely the Allowance following any review in accordance with these terms and conditions. 

		
	1.9
	The Allowance shall not be taken into account for any other purpose, including sickness or severance pay, pension, life assurance cover, permanent health insurance or personal accident cover (in each case whether discretionary or otherwise) and any references to salary in any policy or other document shall not include the Allowance.

		
	1.10
	For the avoidance of doubt, the Allowance is part of your fixed compensation and paid in addition to your salary (or, if applicable, any Foreign Assignment Pay which you may receive if you are on expatriate assignment). The Allowance is not calculated, paid, referable to, nor will it be adjusted to reward your personal performance.

		
	1.11
	In the event of any conflict between the terms of your employment contract (and/or, if applicable, any assignment letter if you are on expatriate assignment) and these terms and conditions, these terms and conditions shall prevail.
