Commitment Letter 
 Ladies and Gentlemen:

 You have advised each of Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch (“DBNY”), Deutsche Bank Securities Inc.
(“DBSI” and, together with DBNY, “DB”), SunTrust Bank (“SunTrust Bank”) and SunTrust Robinson Humphrey, Inc. (“STRH” and together with SunTrust Bank, “SunTrust” and
collectively with DB, the “Agents”, “we” or “us”) that you intend to consummate the Transaction (such term and each other capitalized term used but not defined herein having the meaning assigned to
such term in the Transaction Description attached hereto as Exhibit A or in the Term Sheets or Summary of Additional Conditions referred to below). 
  

	 	1.	Commitments. 

 In connection with the foregoing, each of DBNY and SunTrust Bank is
pleased to advise you of its several commitment to provide 50% and 50%, respectively, of the principal amount of each of the First Lien Credit Facilities, upon the terms and subject solely to the conditions set forth or referred to in this
commitment letter (together with the exhibits attached hereto, this “Commitment Letter”), the Summary of Principal Terms and Conditions for the First Lien Credit Facilities attached hereto as Exhibit B (the
“First Lien Credit Facilities Term Sheet”) and the Summary of Additional Conditions Precedent attached hereto as Exhibit C (the “Summary of Additional Conditions”). 

 

	 	2.	Titles and Roles. 

 You hereby appoint (a) each of DBSI and STRH to act, and each of
DBSI and STRH hereby agrees to act, as a lead book-running manager and a lead arranger for each of the First Lien Credit Facilities (in such capacities, the “Lead Arrangers”), (b) DBNY to act, and DBNY

 
hereby agrees to act, as sole administrative agent for the First Lien Term Loan Facility and collateral agent for the First Lien Credit Facilities and (c) SunTrust Bank to act, and SunTrust
Bank hereby agrees to act, as sole administrative agent for the Revolving Credit Facility. Each of DBSI, DBNY, SunTrust Bank and STRH will perform the duties and exercise the authority customarily performed and exercised by it in the foregoing
roles. DBSI will have “left side” designation and shall appear on the top left of the cover page of any marketing materials for the First Lien Term Loan Facility (with STRH appearing to the immediate “right” of DBSI) and shall
hold the leading roles and responsibilities conventionally associated with such “left” placement with respect to the First Lien Term Loan Facility. STRH will have “left side” designation and shall appear on the top left of the
cover page of any marketing materials for the Revolving Credit Facility (with DBSI appearing to the immediate “right” of STRH) and shall hold the leading roles and responsibilities conventionally associated with such “left”
placement with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility. 
 In connection with the syndication of the First Lien Credit Facilities, at the
Lead Arrangers’ option, any of the Agents and/or one or more affiliates thereof may also be designated as “Syndication Agent”, “Documentation Agent” or such other titles as may be deemed appropriate or desirable by the Lead
Arrangers. You agree that no other agents, co-agents or arrangers will be appointed, no other titles will be awarded and no compensation (other than that expressly contemplated by this Commitment Letter and the Fee Letter referred to below) will be
paid in connection with the First Lien Credit Facilities unless you and we shall so agree. 
  

	 	3.	Syndication. 

 We reserve the right, prior to and/or after the execution of definitive
documentation for the First Lien Credit Facilities (the “Credit Documentation”), to syndicate all or a portion of our commitments with respect to the First Lien Credit Facilities to a group of banks, financial institutions and other
lenders (together with DBNY and SunTrust Bank, the “Lenders”) identified by us in consultation with you and reasonably acceptable to you pursuant to a syndication to be managed exclusively by the Lead Arrangers. All aspects of the
syndication of the First Lien Credit Facilities, including, without limitation, timing, potential syndicate members to be approached, titles, allocations and division of fees, shall be determined by (and coordinated through) the Lead Arrangers in
consultation with you (subject only to your express consent rights as provided above). 
 We intend to commence our syndication efforts with
respect to the First Lien Credit Facilities promptly upon your execution and delivery to us of this Commitment Letter and, until the earlier to occur of (i) a Successful Syndication (as defined in the Fee Letter) and (ii) sixty
(60) days after the Closing Date, you agree actively to assist (and, to the extent not in contravention of the Acquisition Agreement, to use your commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Acquired Business to actively assist) us in
completing a syndication that is reasonably satisfactory to us and you. Such assistance shall include (a) your using commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that any syndication efforts benefit materially from your and the Acquired
Business’ existing lending and investment banking relationships, (b) direct contact between your senior management, representatives and advisors (and, to the extent not in contravention of the Acquisition Agreement, your using commercially
reasonable efforts to cause direct contact between senior management, representatives and advisors of the Acquired Business), on the one 

  
 -2- 

 
hand and the proposed Lenders and rating agencies identified by the Lead Arrangers on the other hand, at times and places reasonably requested by the Lead Arrangers, (c) assistance by you
(and, to the extent not in contravention of the Acquisition Agreement, your using commercially reasonable efforts to cause the assistance by the Acquired Business) in the prompt preparation of a Confidential Information Memorandum for each of the
First Lien Credit Facilities and other marketing materials and information reasonably deemed necessary by the Lead Arrangers to complete a Successful Syndication (collectively, the “Information Materials”) for delivery to potential
syndicate members and participants prior to the commencement of the Marketing Period, including, without limitation, customary financial estimates, forecasts, projections and other forward-looking financial information regarding the future
performance of the Borrower and its subsidiaries (such forward-looking financial information, collectively, the “Projections”); provided, that the only financial statements that shall be required to be provided to the Lead Arrangers
shall be those required to be delivered pursuant to paragraph 7 of Exhibit C, (d) the hosting, with the Lead Arrangers, of one or more meetings and/or conference calls with prospective Lenders, (e) your ensuring (or, in the case of the
Acquired Business, to the extent not in contravention of the Acquisition Agreement, your using commercially reasonable efforts to ensure) that there will not be any competing announcement, offering, placement or arrangement of issues of debt
securities or credit facilities of, or on behalf of, you, the Acquired Business or any of your or their subsidiaries (including refinancings and renewals of debt but excluding the First Lien Credit Facilities, debt expressly permitted to be incurred
by the Acquired Business under the Acquisition Agreement (as in effect on the date hereof), debt incurred under your existing revolving credit facility, letters of credit, foreign subsidiary borrowings under lines of credit or working capital
facilities in an amount not to exceed $15 million at any time outstanding for such foreign subsidiary borrowings, ordinary course capital lease, purchase money and equipment financings, and other indebtedness that has otherwise been consented to by
the Lead Arrangers), without the consent of the Lead Arrangers, if such announcement, offering, placement or arrangement would reasonably be expected to materially impair the primary syndication of the First Lien Credit Facilities as reasonably
determined by us, and (f) your having used commercially reasonable efforts to obtain (i) public ratings for each of the First Lien Credit Facilities (of any level), from each of Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services
(“S&P”) and Moody’s Investor’s Services, Inc. (“Moody’s”), and (ii) a public corporate rating and a public corporate family rating of the Borrower (of any level) from S&P and
Moody’s, respectively, in each case prior to the launch of the syndication of the First Lien Credit Facilities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Commitment Letter or the Fee Letter, (i) none of the foregoing
(including the obtaining of the ratings referenced above) shall constitute a condition to the commitments hereunder or the funding of the First Lien Credit Facilities on the Closing Date and (ii) neither the commencement nor the completion of
the syndication of the First Lien Credit Facilities shall constitute a condition precedent to the Closing Date. 
 You hereby acknowledge
that (a) the Agents will make available Information (as defined below) and Projections, and the documentation relating to the First Lien Credit Facilities referred to in the paragraph below, to the proposed syndicate of Lenders by transmitting
such Information, Projections and documentation through Intralinks, SyndTrak Online, the internet, email or similar electronic transmission systems and (b) certain of the Lenders may be “public side” Lenders (i.e., Lenders that
(i) have personnel that wish only to receive information and documentation that is publicly available or would be publicly available if the Acquired Business 

  
 -3- 

 
was a public reporting company and (ii) do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to the Borrower and its subsidiaries or their respective securities). You further
agree, at the request of the Lead Arrangers, to assist in the prompt preparation of a version of the Confidential Information Memorandum and other marketing materials and presentations to be used in connection with the syndication of the First Lien
Credit Facilities, consisting exclusively of information and documentation that is either (i) publicly available or (ii) not material with respect to the Borrower, the Acquired Business or their respective subsidiaries or any of their
respective securities for purposes of foreign, United States Federal and state securities laws (all such information and documentation being “Public Lender Information” and with any information and documentation that is not Public
Lender Information being referred to herein as “Private Lender Information”). 
 It is understood that in connection with
your assistance described above, customary authorization letters will be included in any such Confidential Information Memorandum that authorize the distribution thereof to prospective Lenders, represent that the additional version of the
Confidential Information Memorandum does not include any material non-public information and contain a disclaimer exculpating us with respect to any liability related to the use or misuse of the contents of such Confidential Information Memorandum
or any related offering and marketing materials by the recipients thereof and exculpating you and the Acquired Business with respect to any liability related to the misuse of the contents of such Confidential Information Memorandum or any related
offering and marketing materials by the recipients thereof. Before distribution of any such Confidential Information Memorandum or any related offering and marketing materials, each document to be disseminated by a Lead Arranger (or any other Agent)
to any Lender in connection with the First Lien Credit Facilities will be identified by you as either (i) containing Private Lender Information or (ii) containing solely Public Lender Information. 

You further agree that the following documents may be distributed as Public Lender Information, unless you advise the Lead Arrangers in
writing (including by email) within a reasonable time prior to their intended distribution that such materials should only be distributed as Private Lender Information: (a) administrative materials prepared by the Lead Arrangers for prospective
Lenders (such as a lender meeting invitation, bank allocation, if any, and funding and closing memoranda), (b) customary marketing term sheets and notification of changes in the First Lien Credit Facilities’ terms and conditions, and
(c) drafts and final versions of the Credit Documentation. 
  

	 	4.	Information. 

 You represent and warrant (and with respect to Information (as defined
below) relating to the Acquired Business, to the best of your knowledge) that (a)(i) no written information which has been or is hereafter furnished by you or on your behalf in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby (other than the
Projections, other forward looking information and information of a general economic or industry specific nature) and (ii) no other information given at information meetings for potential syndicate members and supplied or approved by you or on
your behalf (other than the Projections, other forward looking information and information of a general economic or industry specific nature) (such written information and other information being referred to herein collectively as the
“Information”) taken as a whole 

  
 -4- 

 
contained (or, in the case of Information furnished after the date hereof, will contain), as of the time it was (or hereafter is) furnished, any material misstatement of fact or omitted (or will
omit) as of such time to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein taken as a whole not materially misleading, in light of the circumstances under which they were (or hereafter are) made (after giving effect to all supplements
thereto) and (b) the Projections that have been or will be made available to the Lead Arrangers by you or any of your representatives have been or will be prepared in good faith based upon assumptions that you believe to be reasonable at the
time made and at the time such Projections are made available to the Lead Arrangers, it being recognized by the Agents that such Projections are not to be viewed as facts and that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such
Projections are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies and may differ significantly from the projected results and such differences may be material, and that no assurance can be given that the projected results will be realized. You
agree that if at any time prior to the earlier of (x) sixty (60) days after the Closing Date and (y) the Successful Syndication, you become aware that any of the representations and warranties in the preceding sentence would (to the
best of your knowledge, with respect to Information relating to the Acquired Business prior to the Closing Date) be incorrect in any material respect if the Information and Projections were being furnished, and such representations and warranties
were being made, at such time, then you will (and with respect to Information with respect to the Acquired Business you will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Acquired Business to) promptly supplement the Information and the
Projections so that (to the best of your knowledge, with respect to the Information relating to the Acquired Business prior to the Closing Date) such representations and warranties will be correct in all material respects under those circumstances.
You understand that, in arranging and syndicating the First Lien Credit Facilities, we will be entitled to use and rely on the Information and the Projections without responsibility for independent verification thereof and do not assume
responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of the Information or the Projections. The accuracy of the foregoing representations and warranties, whether or not cured, shall not be a condition to the obligations of the Agents hereunder or the
funding of the First Lien Credit Facilities on the Closing Date. 
  

	 	5.	Conditions Precedent. 

 Each Agent’s commitment hereunder, and each Agent’s
agreement to perform the services described herein and to fund the First Lien Credit Facilities on the Closing Date, are subject only to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Exhibit B hereto, as the case may be, under the heading
“Conditions Precedent” and in the Summary of Additional Conditions. 
 Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Commitment
Letter, the Term Sheets, the Fee Letter or the Credit Documentation, or any other letter agreement or other undertaking concerning the financing of the Acquisition to the contrary, (i) the only representations the making and accuracy of which
shall be a condition to the availability and effectiveness of the First Lien Credit Facilities on the Closing Date shall be (x) such of the representations made by (or relating to) the Acquired Business in the Acquisition Agreement as are
material to the interests of the Lenders, but only to the extent that you have (or your applicable affiliate has) the right (determined without regard to any notice requirement but taking into account any applicable cure provision) to terminate your
(or your affiliate’s) obligations (or to refuse to consummate the Acquisition) under the Acquisition Agreement as a result of a breach of such 

  
 -5- 

 
representations (the “Acquisition Agreement Representations”) and (y) the Specified Representations (as defined below) and (ii) the terms of the Credit Documentation
shall be in a form such that they do not impair the availability or effectiveness of the First Lien Credit Facilities on the Closing Date if the conditions set forth herein and in the Term Sheets and the Summary of Additional Conditions are
satisfied or waived (it being understood that to the extent any Collateral or any security interests therein referred to in the Term Sheets may not be perfected by (A) the filing of a UCC financing statement and (B) taking delivery and
possession of a stock certificate of wholly-owned U.S. organized subsidiaries of the Borrower (including the Acquired Business and its subsidiaries; provided that any such stock certificates of the Acquired Business and its subsidiaries will
be required to be delivered on the Closing Date only to the extent in the possession of the Borrower after its use of commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such certificates prior to the Closing Date, and if they cannot be delivered on the
Closing Date, then such certificates will be required to be delivered within five (5) business days following the Closing Date (or such longer period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agents)) and the perfection of the Administrative
Agents’ security interest in such Collateral may not be accomplished prior to the Closing Date after your use of commercially reasonable efforts to do so, then the perfection of the security interest in such Collateral shall not constitute a
condition precedent to the availability of the First Lien Credit Facilities on the Closing Date but, instead, may be accomplished within 90 days after the Closing Date (or such longer period after the Closing Date reasonably acceptable to the
Administrative Agents)). For purposes hereof, “Specified Representations” means the representations and warranties set forth in the Term Sheets relating to legal existence of the Borrower and the Guarantors, corporate power and
authority relating to the entering into and performance of the Credit Documentation by the Borrower and the Guarantors, the due authorization, execution, delivery, validity and enforceability of the Credit Documentation against the Borrower and the
Guarantors, no conflicts of Credit Documentation with organizational documents of the Borrower and the Guarantors as it relates to their ability to enter into and perform under the Credit Documentation, margin regulations, the Investment Company Act
of 1940, as amended, solvency of the Borrower and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis as of the Closing Date (after giving pro forma effect to the Transaction) (with solvency being determined in a manner consistent with Annex A to
Exhibit C attached hereto), Patriot Act/“know your customer” laws, not using proceeds in violation of OFAC/other sanctions and anti-terrorism laws, not using proceeds in violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and, subject to
subclause (I) of the last parenthetical appearing in the preceding sentence, the creation, validity, perfection and priority of the security interests granted in the proposed Collateral. The provisions of this paragraph are referred to as the
“Limited Conditionality Provisions”. 
  

	 	6.	Fees. 

 As consideration for each Agent’s commitment hereunder, and each
Agent’s agreement to perform the services described herein, you agree to pay (or cause to be paid) to each Agent the fees to which such Agent is entitled set forth in this Commitment Letter and in the fee letter dated the date hereof and
delivered herewith (the “Fee Letter”). 

  
 -6- 

	 	7.	Expenses; Indemnification. 

 To induce each Agent to issue this Commitment Letter and to
proceed with the Credit Documentation, you hereby agree that all fees and expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and consultants) of each Agent and its respective affiliates arising in connection with the First Lien Credit
Facilities and the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and enforcement of this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter and the Credit Documentation (including in connection with our due diligence and syndication efforts) shall be for your
account (and that you shall, on the Closing Date, reimburse such Agent and its respective affiliates for all such fees and expenses paid or incurred by them), whether or not the Transaction is consummated or the First Lien Credit Facilities are made
available or the Credit Documentation is executed; provided that you shall only be responsible for the fees and expenses of one primary counsel acting for the Agents (taken as a whole) and one local counsel for each relevant jurisdiction as
may be necessary or advisable in the judgment of the Agents. 
 You further agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Agent and each other
agent or co-agent (if any) designated by any Lead Arranger with respect to the First Lien Credit Facilities (each, a “Co-Agent”) and their respective affiliates and the respective directors, officers, employees, representatives and
agents of each of the foregoing (each, an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all actions, suits, proceedings (including any investigations or inquiries), claims, losses, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind or
nature whatsoever which may be incurred by or asserted against or involve any Agent, any Co-Agent or any other such Indemnified Person as a result of or arising out of or in any way related to or resulting from the Transaction, this Commitment
Letter or the Fee Letter and, upon demand, to pay and reimburse each Agent, each Co-Agent and each other Indemnified Person for any reasonable legal or other out-of-pocket expenses paid or incurred in connection with investigating, defending or
preparing to defend any such action, suit, proceeding (including any inquiry or investigation) or claim (whether or not any Agent, any Co-Agent or any other such Indemnified Person is a party to any action or proceeding out of which any such
expenses arise or such matter is initiated by a third party or by you or any of your affiliates); provided, however, that you shall not have to indemnify any Indemnified Person against (A) any loss, claim, damage, expense or
liability to the extent same resulted from the gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of, or material breach of its obligations hereunder by, such Indemnified Person (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and
non-appealable judgment), (B) any dispute solely among the Indemnified Persons (not arising as a result of any act or omission by the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates) other than any claim, action, suit, inquiry, litigation,
investigation or other proceeding brought by or against any such Indemnified Person in its capacity as agent or arranger, or (C) any settlement entered into by such Indemnified Person without your written consent (such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), but if settled with your written consent or if there is a final and non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction against an Indemnified Person in any such claim, action, suit, inquiry,
litigation, investigation or other proceeding, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person in the manner set forth above; and provided further that you shall be responsible for the fees and expenses of only one
counsel for all Indemnified Persons in connection with indemnification claims arising out of the same facts or circumstances and, if reasonably necessary or advisable in the judgment of the Agents, a single local counsel to the Indemnified Persons
in each relevant jurisdiction and, solely in the case of an actual or 

  
 -7- 

 
perceived conflict of interest, one additional counsel in each applicable jurisdiction to the affected Indemnified Persons. You shall not, without the prior written consent of the affected
Indemnified Person, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened claim, action, suit, inquiry, litigation, investigation or other proceeding against such Indemnified Person in respect of which indemnity has been sought hereunder by such
Indemnified Person unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed)
from all liability with respect to claims that are the subject matter of such claim, action, suit, inquiry, litigation, investigation or other proceeding, (ii) does not include any statement as to any admission of fault or culpability of such
Indemnified Person and (iii) contains customary confidentiality provisions with respect to the terms of such settlement. No Indemnified Person shall be responsible or liable to you or any other person or entity for any damages arising from the
use by others of information or other materials obtained through electronic, telecommunications, internet-based or other information transmission systems (including IntraLinks, SyndTrak Online or email), except to the extent such damages have
resulted from the willful misconduct, gross negligence or bad faith of such Indemnified Person (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment). Neither you nor we nor any other Indemnified Person will be
responsible or liable to us or you or any other person or entity for any indirect, special, exemplary, incidental, punitive or consequential damages (including, without limitation, any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings) which may be
alleged as a result of this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter or the financing contemplated hereby; provided that the indemnity and reimbursement obligations under this Section 7 shall not be limited by this sentence. 

 

	 	8.	Sharing Information; Absence of Fiduciary Relationship; Affiliate Activities. 

 Each
Agent reserves the right to employ the services of its affiliates (including, in the case of DB, Deutsche Bank AG) in providing services contemplated by this Commitment Letter and to allocate, in whole or in part, to its affiliates certain fees
payable to such Agent in such manner as such Agent and its affiliates may agree in their sole discretion. You acknowledge that (i) each Agent may share with any of its affiliates who have a need to know such information, and such affiliates may
share with such Agent, any information related to the Transaction, you, the Acquired Business (and your and their respective subsidiaries and affiliates), or any of the matters contemplated hereby and (ii) each Agent and its affiliates may be
providing debt financing, equity capital or other services (including financial advisory services) to other companies in respect of which you may have conflicting interests regarding the transactions described herein or otherwise. No Agent will,
however, furnish confidential information obtained from you by virtue of the transactions contemplated by this Commitment Letter or its other relationships with you to other companies (other than your affiliates). You also acknowledge that no Agent
has any obligation to use in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Commitment Letter, or to furnish to you, confidential information obtained by it from other companies. 

You further acknowledge and agree that (a) no fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship between you and us is intended to be or has been
created in respect of any of the transactions contemplated by this Commitment Letter, irrespective of whether we or our affiliates have advised or are advising you on other matters (it being acknowledged that DBSI has been retained

  
 -8- 

 
by you as financial advisor in connection with the Transaction), (b) we, on the one hand, and you, on the other hand, have an arms-length business relationship that does not directly or
indirectly give rise to, nor do you rely on, any fiduciary duty on our part, (c) you are capable of evaluating and understanding, and you understand and accept, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by this Commitment
Letter, (d) you have been advised that we and our affiliates are engaged in a broad range of transactions that may involve interests that differ from your interests and that we and our affiliates have no obligation to disclose such interests
and transactions to you by virtue of any fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship, and (e) you waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims you may have against us or our affiliates for breach of fiduciary duty or alleged breach
of fiduciary duty and agree that we and our affiliates shall have no liability (whether direct or indirect) to you in respect of such a fiduciary duty claim or to any person asserting a fiduciary duty claim on behalf of or in right of you, including
your stockholders, employees or creditors. 
 You further acknowledge that each of the Agents is a full service securities firm engaged in
securities trading and brokerage activities as well as providing investment banking and other financial services. In the ordinary course of business, the Agents and/or their respective affiliates may provide investment banking and other financial
services to, and/or acquire, hold or sell, for their own accounts and the accounts of customers, equity, debt and other securities and financial instruments (including bank loans and other obligations) of, you, the Acquired Business and your and its
respective subsidiaries and other companies with which you or the Acquired Business or your or its subsidiaries may have commercial or other relationships. With respect to any securities and/or financial instruments so held by any Agent, any of its
affiliates or any of their respective customers, all rights in respect of such securities and financial instruments, including any voting rights, will be exercised by the holder of the rights, in its sole discretion. 

Each Agent or its affiliates may also co-invest with, make direct investments in, and invest or co-invest client monies in or with funds or
other investment vehicles managed by other parties, and such funds or other investment vehicles may trade or make investments in securities of you, the Acquired Business or other companies which may be the subject of the arrangements contemplated by
this Commitment Letter or engage in commodities trading with any thereof. 
  

	 	9.	Confidentiality. 

 This Commitment Letter is delivered to you on the understanding that
neither this Commitment Letter nor the Fee Letter nor any of their terms or substance shall be disclosed, directly or indirectly, by you to any other person or entity except (a) to your officers, directors, employees, attorneys, accountants and

 The provisions of Sections 2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, 12, 13 and 14 of

 CIRCOR
International, Inc. (“you” or the “Borrower”) intends to (i) acquire (the “Acquisition”) certain capital stock and assets constituting a business identified to us and code-named
“Masterpiece” (the “Target” and, together with its subsidiaries, the “Acquired Business”) and (ii) concurrently with the consummation of the Acquisition, repay all of the existing indebtedness of the
Borrower, its subsidiaries and the Acquired Business other than the Permitted Surviving Indebtedness (as defined in the Summary of Additional Conditions) and terminate the commitments under the Borrower’s existing credit facility (collectively,

Transaction (the “Transaction Costs”) and to provide for the working capital needs and general corporate requirements of the Borrower and its subsidiaries after giving effect to the Acquisition shall be provided solely through
senior secured first lien financing consisting of (i) a first lien term loan facility (the “First Lien Term Loan Facility”) in an amount equal to $785.0 million and (ii) a first lien revolving credit facility
(the “Revolving Credit Facility” and, together with the First Lien Term Loan Facility, the “First Lien Credit Facilities”) in an amount equal to $150.0 million. 

The date on which the Acquisition and the Refinancing are consummated and the initial borrowings are made under the First Lien Credit
Facilities is referred to herein as the “Closing Date”.

of Revolving Loans to the Borrower).

consisting of one or more increases to the Revolving Credit Facility (each, an “Incremental Revolving Facility”) and/or the First Lien Term Loan Facility and/or one or more new tranches of term loans to be made available under the
First Lien Credit Documentation (each, an “Incremental First Lien

  
 B-3 

			
		  	 Term Facility” and, together with the Incremental Revolving Facilities, the “Incremental First Lien
Facilities”) in an aggregate amount not to exceed the sum of (a) the greater of (x) $150.0 million and (y) 1.0x Consolidated EBITDA (to be defined as mutually agreed) as of the last day of the most recently ended period of four consecutive
fiscal quarters for which financial statements have been delivered (the “Incremental First Lien Facilities Dollar Basket”) plus (b) voluntary prepayments of the First Lien Term Loans (other than to the extent financed with
the proceeds of long-term debt) plus (c) an additional amount at such time that, after giving pro forma effect thereto (including use of proceeds), could be incurred without causing the pro forma First-Lien Net Leverage Ratio (as defined
below) to exceed 5.00:1.00; provided that (i) all Incremental First Lien Facilities and permitted refinancings of the foregoing (or prior permitted refinancings) shall be included in the numerator of such ratio regardless of whether, and to
what extent, secured, (ii) the proceeds of any Incremental First Lien Facilities shall not be netted from indebtedness for the purposes of such calculation, (iii) all Incremental Revolving Facilities shall be deemed to be fully drawn for purposes of
such calculation and (iv) the Borrower shall have the ability to classify and later reclassify between clauses (a) and (c) above; provided, further, that:
  

(i)     no such Incremental First Lien Facility will be available until after the earlier of
(x) the date on which a Successful Syndication has occurred and (y) 60 days after the Closing Date, and in any event shall not be available until after the Closing Date;
  

(ii)    (A) no default or event of default exists or would exist after giving effect thereto and
(B) the representations and warranties set forth in the terms of the First Lien Credit Documentation shall be true and correct in all material respects (except for (i) representations and warranties which expressly relate to an earlier date, which
shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date and (y) representations and warranties qualified by materiality, which shall be true and correct in all respects); provided that to the extent the proceeds of any
Incremental First Lien Facility are intended to be applied to finance a Limited Condition Acquisition (as defined below) that is permitted under the First Lien Credit Documentation, the availability thereof shall, if agreed by the lenders providing
such Incremental First Lien Facility, be subject to customary “SunGard” or “certain funds” conditionality provisions, and the event of default test referred to in clause (A) shall be tested at the time of the execution of the
relevant acquisition agreement;

  
 B-4 

			
		  	  
 (iii)  any such
Incremental First Lien Facility shall rank pari passu in right of payment with the First Lien Credit Facilities and shall benefit from the same guarantees as, and be secured on a pari passu basis by the same Collateral (as defined below) securing,
the First Lien Credit Facilities;
  

(iv)   in the case of an Incremental Revolving Facility, such Incremental Revolving Facility shall be
subject to the same terms and conditions as the Revolving Credit Facility (and be deemed added to, and made a part of, the Revolving Credit Facility); and
  

(v)    except for the terms described in this clause (v), loans to be made under an Incremental
First Lien Term Facility (each, an “Incremental First Lien Term Loan”) shall be subject to the same terms as the initial First Lien Term Loans, unless such Incremental First Lien Term Loans are made a part of the First Lien Term
Loan Facility (in which case all terms thereof shall be identical to those of the First Lien Term Loan Facility); provided that
  

(a)    if the interest rate margins for any Incremental First Lien Term Facility incurred on or
prior to the date that is 18 months after the Closing are higher than the interest rate margins for the First Lien Term Loan Facility by more than 50 basis points, then the interest rate margins for the First Lien Term Loan Facility shall be
increased to the extent necessary so that such interest rate margins are equal to the interest rate margins for such Incremental First Lien Term Facility minus 50 basis points (it being understood that any such increase in the interest rate margin
shall not require the consent of any Lender); provided that, in determining the interest rate margins applicable to the Incremental First Lien Term Facility and the First Lien Term Loan Facility (x) original issue discount
(“OID”) or upfront fees (which shall be deemed to constitute like amounts of OID) payable by Borrower to the Lenders under the First Lien Term Loan Facility or any Incremental First Lien Term Facility in the initial primary
syndication thereof shall be included (with OID being equated to interest based on assumed four-year life to maturity), (y) customary arrangement, commitment, structuring or similar fees payable to the Lead Arrangers (or their respective affiliates)
in connection with the First Lien Term Loan Facility or to one or more arrangers (or their affiliates) of any Incremental First Lien Term Facility shall be excluded and (z) if the First Lien Incremental Term Loan Facilities include an interest rate
floor greater than the

  
 B-5 

			
		  	 interest rate floor applicable to the existing First Lien Term Loan Facility, such increased amount shall be equated to
interest margin for purposes of determining whether an increase to the applicable interest margin under the existing First Lien Term Loan Facility shall be required, to the extent an increase in the interest rate floor in the then-existing First
Lien Term Loan Facility would cause an increase in the interest rate then in effect thereunder, and in such case the interest rate floor (but not the interest rate margin) applicable to the then-existing First Lien Term Loan Facility shall be
increased by such increased amount (this clause (a), the “MFN Protection”);
  

(b)    the final stated maturity date for such Incremental First Lien Term Loans may be the same
as or later (but not sooner) than the final stated maturity date applicable to the First Lien Term Loans;
  

(c)    the amortization requirements for such Incremental First Lien Term Loans may differ from
those of the First Lien Term Loans, provided the average weighted life to maturity of such Incremental First Lien Term Loans is no shorter than the average weighted life to maturity applicable to the then outstanding First Lien Term
Loans;
  
 (d)    any
Incremental First Lien Term Facility may provide for the ability to participate on a pro rata basis or less than a pro rata basis (but not on a greater than pro rata basis) in any voluntary or any mandatory prepayments of the term loans under other
outstanding term facilities; and
  

(e)    other terms may differ if reasonably satisfactory to the Term Loan Administrative Agent,
the Borrower and lenders providing such Incremental First Lien Term Loans; provided that the other terms of any Incremental First Lien Term Facility that are not substantially identical to the then-existing First Lien Term Loan Facility
(other than pursuant to clauses (i) and (ii) above and sub-clauses (a) through (d) above) shall be (taken as a whole) no more favorable (as reasonably determined by the Borrower) to the relevant lenders under the First Lien Incremental Term Facility
than those applicable to the then-existing First Lien Term Loan Facility or otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Term Loan Administrative Agent (except for covenants or other provisions (A) applicable only to periods after the latest final
maturity date of the loans under the then-existing First Lien Term Loan Facility existing at the time of incurrence of the First Lien Incremental Term Facility or (B) also provided to the relevant lenders under the then-existing First Lien Term Loan
Facility).

  
 B-6 

			
		  	  
 For the purposes hereof, “First-Lien Net Leverage
Ratio” means, on any date of determination, with respect to the Borrower and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, subject to the first proviso in the first paragraph of this section, the ratio of (a) consolidated secured funded
indebtedness (excluding indebtedness secured only by the Collateral on a junior lien basis to the First Lien Credit Facilities) of the Borrower and its subsidiaries on such date (less the unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of the Borrower and
its subsidiaries as of such date) to (b) Consolidated EBITDA of the Borrower and its subsidiaries for the four fiscal quarter period most recently ended for which financial statements have been (or were required to have been) delivered and (y)
“Total Net Leverage Ratio” means, on any date of determination, with respect to the Borrower and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis the ratio of (a) consolidated funded indebtedness of the Borrower and its subsidiaries on such
date (less the unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of the Borrower and its subsidiaries as of such date) to (b) Consolidated EBITDA of the Borrower and its subsidiaries for the four fiscal quarter period most recently ended for which financial
statements have been (or were required to have been) delivered.
  
 Existing Lenders may,
but shall not be obligated without their prior written consent to, provide a commitment and/or make any loans pursuant to any First Lien Incremental Facility, and nothing contained herein or in the Commitment Letter constitutes, or shall be deemed
to constitute, a commitment with respect to any Incremental First Lien Facility. The lenders providing any Incremental First Lien Facility shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agents, the Swingline Lender and each Letter of Credit
issuer to the extent required under “Assignments and Participations” below.
  

The First Lien Facility Documentation will permit the Borrower to utilize availability under the Incremental First Lien Facilities to issue Incremental
Equivalent Debt (as defined below).
  
 The proceeds of any Incremental First Lien
Facilities may be used by the Borrower and its subsidiaries for working capital and other general corporate purposes, including the financing of permitted acquisitions and other investments and any other use not prohibited by the First Lien Credit
Documentation.

  
 B-7 

			
		  	  
 For the purposes of (i) determining pro forma compliance with the
First-Lien Net Leverage Ratio in connection with any Incremental First Lien Facilities, (ii) determining compliance with any provision of the First Lien Credit Documentation which requires the calculation of any ratio, (iii) determining compliance
with representations, warranties, defaults or events of default or (iv) testing availability under baskets set forth in the First Lien Credit Documentation (including baskets measured as a percentage of total assets or Consolidated EBITDA), in each
case in connection with a permitted acquisition that the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries is contractually committed to consummate and whose consummation is not conditioned on the availability of, or obtaining, third party financing or the
prepayment of indebtedness following delivery of an irrevocable notice of prepayment in respect thereof (a “Limited Conditionality Transaction”), the date of determination thereof shall, at the Borrower’s option (and
“LCT Election”), be the date of entering into the binding definitive agreement for such acquisition (the “LCT Test Date”) and shall be made giving pro forma effect to such acquisition and the other transactions
(including the incurrence of indebtedness) to be entered into in connection therewith as if they had occurred at the beginning of the applicable test period and if the Borrower or its applicable subsidiary could have taken such action on the
relevant LCT Test Date in compliance with such representation, warranty, ratio or basket, such representation, warranty, ratio or basket shall be deemed to have been complied with; provided that (x) such indebtedness (and any associated lien)
shall be deemed incurred at the time of such selection and outstanding thereafter for the purposes of pro forma compliance with any applicable ratios and (y) for purposes of any calculation of any ratio (but not for purposes of the calculation of
any financial covenant) with respect to the incurrence of any other debt or liens, or the making of any other acquisition, investment, restricted payment, junior debt repayment or other transaction subject to ratio compliance on or following such
date and prior to the consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition (or termination of the definitive agreement with respect thereto), any such ratio shall also be required to be calculated without giving effect to such Limited Condition
Acquisition.
  
 For the avoidance of doubt, if the Borrower has made an LCT Election and
any of the ratios or baskets for which compliance was determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date are exceeded as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio or basket (including due to fluctuations of the target of any Limited Conditionality
Transaction) at or prior to the consummation of the relevant transaction or action, such baskets or ratios will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations.

		
	Guaranties:	  	Each direct and indirect material restricted subsidiary of the Borrower (each, a “Guarantor” and, collectively, the “Guarantors”) shall be required to provide an unconditional guaranty
(collectively, the “Guaranties”) of all amounts owing under the First Lien Credit

  
 B-8 

			
		  	Facilities and, to the extent so designated by the Borrower as “Secured Hedging Agreements”, the obligations of the Borrower under interest rate and/or foreign currency swaps or similar agreements with a Lender or its
affiliates or the Administrative Agents or their affiliates (the “Secured Hedging Agreements”). Such Guaranties shall be guarantees of payment and not of collection. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above (i) no
Excluded Foreign Subsidiary (as defined below) shall be required to provide a Guaranty (or constitute a Guarantor) and (ii) no subsidiary of the Borrower that is not an “Eligible Contract Participant” (after giving effect to any keepwell)
as defined under the Commodity Exchange Act shall be required to provide a Guaranty (or constitute a Guarantor) with respect to (and solely with respect to) obligations under any Secured Hedging Agreement that constitutes a “swap” within
the meaning of section 1(a)(47) of the Commodity Exchange Act. As used herein, “Excluded Foreign Subsidiary” means (a) any direct or indirect non-U.S. subsidiary of the Borrower which is a “controlled foreign corporation”
(within the meaning of Section 957 of the Internal Revenue Code) (each, a “CFC”), (b) any direct or indirect U.S. subsidiary of the Borrower the sole assets of which are equity interests in CFCs (each, a “CFC
Holdco”) or other CFC Holdcos, and (c) any subsidiary of a CFC or CFC Holdco.
		
	Security:	  	 All amounts owing under the First Lien Credit Facilities and (if applicable) the Secured Hedging Agreements (and all obligations under the
Guaranties) will be secured by (x) a first priority perfected security interest in all stock, other equity interests and promissory notes owned by the Borrower and the Guarantors, provided that not more than 65% of the total outstanding
voting stock of any Excluded Foreign Subsidiary shall be required to be pledged, and (y) a first priority perfected security interest in all other tangible and intangible assets (including, without limitation, receivables, inventory, equipment,
contract rights, securities, patents, trademarks, other intellectual property, cash, bank and securities deposit accounts and real estate) owned by the Borrower and the Guarantors (all of the foregoing, the “Collateral”).

 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Collateral shall exclude the following: (i)
any fee owned real property with a value of less than $10.0 million (with any required mortgages on properties with a value greater than such amount being permitted to be delivered post-closing and being subject to delivery of flood documents
satisfactory to Agents) and all leaseholds in real property; (ii) equity interests of non-wholly owned subsidiaries and joint ventures, to the extent prohibited under the organizational documents of such non-wholly owned subsidiaries or joint
ventures; (iii) licenses, instruments and agreements to the extent, and so long as, the pledge thereof as Collateral would

  
 B-9 

			
		  	 violate the terms thereof, but only, to the extent, and for so long as, such prohibition is not terminated or rendered unenforceable or
otherwise deemed ineffective by the Uniform Commercial Code (“UCC”) or any other applicable requirement of law and other than proceeds and receivables thereof, the assignment of which is expressly deemed effective under the UCC or
other applicable law notwithstanding such prohibition or limitation; (iv) motor vehicles and other assets subject to certificate of title to the extent that a security interest therein cannot be perfected by the filing of a UCC-1 financing
statement; (v) other assets to the extent the pledge thereof is prohibited by applicable law, but only to the extent, and for so long as, such prohibition is not terminated or rendered unenforceable or otherwise deemed ineffective by the UCC or any
other applicable requirement of law and other than proceeds and receivables thereof, the assignment of which is expressly deemed effective under the UCC or other applicable law notwithstanding such prohibition or limitation; (vi) intent to use
trademark or service mark applications; (vii) those assets as to which the Administrative Agents in consultation with the Borrower shall determine that the costs of obtaining such security interest or perfection thereof are excessive in relation to
the value of the security to be afforded thereby; and (viii) such other assets of the Borrower and the Guarantors as may be agreed by the Administrative Agents.
  

All documentation (collectively referred to herein as the “Security Agreements”) evidencing the security required pursuant to the immediately
preceding paragraphs shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agents, and shall effectively create first priority security interests in the property purported to be covered thereby, with such exceptions as are
acceptable to the Administrative Agents in their reasonable discretion.
  

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the requirements of the preceding paragraphs of this “Security” section shall be, as of the Closing Date, subject to
the Limited Conditionality Provisions.
  

	 Optional Commit-
 ment
Reductions:
	  	The unutilized portion of the total commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility may, upon three business days’ notice, be reduced or terminated by the Borrower without penalty in minimum amounts to be mutually
agreed.
		
	 Voluntary
 Prepayments:
	  	Voluntary prepayments may be made at any time on three business days’ notice in the case of LIBOR Loans, or one business day’s notice in the case of Base Rate Loans, without premium or penalty (subject, however, to the
Prepayment Premium referred to below), in minimum principal amounts to be mutually agreed; provided that voluntary prepayments of LIBOR Loans made on a date other than the last day of an interest period applicable thereto shall be subject to
customary

  
 B-10 

			
		  	breakage costs. Voluntary prepayments of First Lien Term Loans shall be applied pro rata to each outstanding tranche of First Lien Term Loans and Incremental First Lien Term Loans (if any), and shall apply to reduce future scheduled
amortization payments of the First Lien Term Loans in direct order of maturity.
		
	 Mandatory
 Repayments

and Commitment
 Reductions:
	  	Mandatory repayments of First Lien Term Loans shall be required from (a) 100% of the cash proceeds (net of taxes and costs and expenses in connection with the sale) from asset sales by the Borrower and its subsidiaries (including
sales or issuances of equity interests of any subsidiary of the Borrower) in excess of an amount to be agreed (with only the excess amount being required to prepay) but subject to certain ordinary course and other exceptions and reinvestment rights
to be mutually agreed, (b) 100% of the net cash proceeds from issuances or incurrences of debt (other than any debt permitted under the First Lien Credit Documentation, but including, for the avoidance of doubt, any First Lien Refinancing Facilities
(as defined below)) by the Borrower and its subsidiaries, (c) commencing with the first full fiscal year of the Borrower to occur after the Closing Date, an amount, in excess of a threshold to be agreed, equal to 50% (with step-downs to 25% and 0%
subject to compliance with First-Lien Net Leverage Ratios 0.50x and 1.00x inside the First-Lien Net Leverage Ratio on the Closing Date, respectively, so long as no default or event of default under the First Lien Credit Facilities is in existence)
of annual Excess Cash Flow (to be defined in a manner to be mutually agreed and to include, in any event, deductions (including whether made during the applicable period or prior to the making of the applicable excess cash flow payment) from excess
cash flow, without duplication among periods, of operating cash flow used to make acquisitions, make permitted investments (other than intercompany investments, cash equivalents, money market instruments and certain other limited exceptions), make
certain distributions and dividends to be agreed, or make capital expenditures, or to be used within the succeeding twelve months to fund acquisition obligations for which binding agreements exist or capital expenditures subject to reversal of such
deduction if any amount is not actually expended within such twelve-month period)) of the Borrower and its subsidiaries, with any such required repayment amount to be reduced dollar-for-dollar by the amount of voluntary prepayments or Buy-Backs of
First Lien Loans (limited, in the case of Buy-Backs at or below par to the amount of cash used to make such purchases) made during the applicable year or after year-end and prior to the time such Excess Cash Flow prepayment (including Revolving
Loans, solely to the extent commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility are permanently reduced by the amount of such repayments), except to the extent financed with long-term debt (with the ratios for purposes of determining the applicable
Excess Cash Flow percentage above, recalculated to give pro forma effect to any such pay down or reduction

  
 B-11 

			
		  	 made during such time period or after year-end) and (d) 100% of the net cash proceeds from insurance recovery and condemnation events of the
Borrower and its subsidiaries (subject to certain reinvestment rights to be mutually agreed).
  

All mandatory repayments of First Lien Term Loans made pursuant to clauses (a) through (d), inclusive, above shall (subject to the immediately succeeding
paragraph) be applied without premium or penalty pro rata to each outstanding tranche of First Lien Term Loans and Incremental First Lien Term Loans (if any), and shall apply to reduce future scheduled amortization payments of the First Lien Term
Loans in such order as the Borrower may direct. If (1) the amount of any mandatory repayment which would otherwise be required as provided above exceeds the aggregate principal amount of First Lien Term Loans then outstanding and (2) a default or
event of default then exists under the First Lien Credit Facilities, such excess shall apply to permanently reduce the commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility. In addition, (i) if at any time the outstandings pursuant to the Revolving Credit
Facility (including Letter of Credit outstandings) exceed the aggregate commitments with respect thereto, prepayments of Revolving Loans (and/or the cash collateralization of Letters of Credit) shall be required in an amount equal to such excess,
and (ii) after giving effect to the consummation of the Transaction on the Closing Date, all commitments under the First Lien Term Loan Facility (if any) not required to finance the Transaction shall be terminated in their entirety.

 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the First Lien Credit Documentation will provide that, in
the event that any First Lien Refinancing Facility or any Incremental Equivalent Debt shall be incurred, such Refinancing Facility or Incremental Equivalent Debt (to the extent secured on an equal priority basis with the First Lien Term Loan and any
Incremental Facility) may share up to ratably in any prepayments required by the foregoing provisions if required under the terms of the applicable documents governing such First Lien Refinancing Facility or Incremental Equivalent Debt.

 
 Prepayments from foreign subsidiaries’ Excess Cash Flow and asset sale proceeds (to
the extent otherwise required) shall be limited under the definitive documentation to the extent (x) the repatriation of funds to fund such prepayments is prohibited, restricted or delayed by applicable laws or (y) repatriation of funds to fund such
prepayment would result in material adverse tax consequences, as reasonably determined by the Borrower.

  
 B-12 

			
		  	  
 All mandatory prepayments above are subject to permissibility under (a)
local law (e.g., financial assistance, corporate benefit, restrictions on upstreaming of cash intra-group and the fiduciary and statutory duties of the directors of the relevant subsidiaries) and (b) organizational document or other restrictions
(including as a result of minority ownership). The non-application of any such mandatory prepayment amounts as a result of the foregoing provisions will not constitute a default or an event of default and such amounts shall be available for working
capital purposes of the Borrower and its restricted subsidiaries
  
 Any Lender (each a
“Declining Lender”) may elect not to accept any mandatory prepayment pursuant to clause (a), (c) or (d) above. Any prepayment amount declined by a Declining Lender may be retained by the Borrower (such declined payment, the
“Declined Proceeds”) and may be either added to the Available Amount Basket (as defined below) or may be applied in prepayment of amounts owed to non-Declining Lenders, in the Borrower’s discretion.

		
	Prepayment Premium:	  	 The occurrence of any Repricing Event (as defined below) with respect to First Lien Term Loans, in each case prior to the six-month
anniversary of the Closing Date, will require payment of a fee (the “Prepayment Premium”) of an amount equal to 1% of the principal amount of the First Lien Term Loans subject to such Repricing Event.

 
 As used herein, the term “Repricing Event” shall mean, other than in
connection with any transaction involving a Change of Control (to be defined) or a Transformative Acquisition (to be defined in a manner to be mutually agreed), (i) any prepayment or repayment of First Lien Term Loans with the proceeds of, or any
conversion of First Lien Term Loans into, any new or replacement syndicated bank credit facility bearing interest with an “effective yield” (taking into account, for example, upfront fees, interest rate spreads, interest rate benchmark
floors and original issue discount) less than the “effective yield” applicable to the First Lien Term Loans subject to such event (as such comparative yields are reasonably determined by the Term Loan Administrative Agent) and (ii) any
amendment to the First Lien Credit Documentation which reduces the “effective yield” applicable to the First Lien Term Loans (it being understood that any prepayment premium with respect to a Repricing Event shall apply to any required
assignment by a non-consenting Lender in connection with any such amendment pursuant to so-called yank-a-bank provisions).

		
	Refinancing Facilities:	  	The Borrower shall have the right to refinance and/or replace the First Lien Term Loans under the First Lien Term Loan Facility (and loans under any Incremental First Lien Term Facility) and/or Revolving Loans and commitments under
the Revolving Credit Facility (and loans and commitments under any Incremental Revolving Facility) in whole or in part with (x) one or more new term facilities (each, a “First Lien Refinancing Term Facility”) or new revolving credit
facilities (each, a

  
 B-13 

			
		  	“First Lien Refinancing Revolving Facility” and, together with any First Lien Refinancing Term Facility, a “First Lien Refinancing Facility” or the “First Lien Refinancing
Facilities”) under the First Lien Credit Documentation, in each case, with the consent of the Borrower and the institutions providing such First Lien Refinancing Facility and/or (y) one or more series of notes or loans, in the case of each
of clauses (x) and (y), that will be pari passu or junior in right of payment and be secured by the Collateral on a pari passu or junior basis with the remaining portion of the First Lien Credit Facilities or be unsecured (such notes or loans, the
“First Lien Refinancing Notes”); provided, that (a) any First Lien Refinancing Facility or issue of First Lien Refinancing Notes that is pari passu or junior with respect to the security shall be subject to a customary
intercreditor agreement, the terms of which shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agents and the Borrower, (b) no First Lien Refinancing Term Facility or First Lien Refinancing Notes shall mature prior to the maturity date of the
First Lien Credit Facilities being refinanced or replaced, and, in the case of the First Lien Term Loan Facility, no First Lien Refinancing Term Facility or First Lien Refinancing Notes shall have a shorter weighted average life to maturity than the
First Lien Term Loans under the First Lien Term Loan Facility being refinanced or replaced, (c) no Refinancing Revolving Facility shall mature (or require commitment reductions) prior to the maturity date of the Revolving Loans or commitments being
refinanced, (d) such First Lien Refinancing Facility or First Lien Refinancing Notes shall have pricing (including interest, fees and premiums), optional prepayments and redemption terms as may be agreed to by the Borrower and the lenders party
thereto, (e) such First Lien Refinancing Facility or series of First Lien Refinancing Notes shall not be secured by any assets other than the Collateral, (f) such First Lien Refinancing Facility or First Lien Refinancing Notes shall not be
guaranteed by any person other than the Guarantors, (g) the other terms and conditions (excluding those referenced in clauses (b) through (f) above) of such First Lien Refinancing Facility or First Lien Refinancing Notes shall be substantially
identical to, or (taken as a whole) no more favorable (as reasonably determined by the Borrower) to the lenders providing such First Lien Refinancing Facility or First Lien Refinancing Notes than, those applicable to the First Lien Loans or
commitments being refinanced or replaced (except for covenants or other provisions applicable only to periods after the latest final maturity date of the relevant First Lien Loans or commitments existing at the time of such refinancing or
replacement) or such terms shall be current market terms for such type of indebtedness, (h) the aggregate principal amount of any First Lien Refinancing Facility or any First Lien Refinancing Notes shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of
indebtedness and commitments being refinanced or replaced therewith,

  
 B-14 

			
		  	plus interest, premiums, fees and expenses or to the extent otherwise permitted under the First Lien Credit Documentation, (i) in the case of any Refinancing Revolving Facility, the First Lien Credit Documentation shall include
certain provisions to govern the pro rata payment, borrowing, participation and commitment reduction of the Revolving Credit Facility and any such Refinancing Revolving Facility and (j) only a First Lien Refinancing Term Facility that is pari passu
in right of payment and security with the First Lien Term Loan Facility shall share ratably in any voluntary or mandatory prepayments of the First Lien Term Loan Facility, unless the Borrower and the lenders in respect of such First Lien Refinancing
Term Facility elect lesser payments. The lenders providing any First Lien Refinancing Revolving Facility shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Revolving Facility Administrative Agent and each Letter of Credit issuer to the extent required under
“Assignments and Participations” below.
		
	Documentation:	  	The First Lien Credit Documentation will be based on the definitive documentation in respect of the Borrower’s existing credit facility (and the related security, pledge, collateral and guarantee agreements executed and/or
delivered in connection therewith) (collectively, the “Existing Credit Facility”), in each case as modified to (i) reflect the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Commitment Letter (as modified pursuant to the flex
provisions of the Fee Letter), (ii) take account of differences related to the operational requirements of the Borrower, the Target and their respective subsidiaries in light of their size, industries, businesses, business practices, financial
accounting and the Projections (after giving effect to the Transaction), (iii) reflect operational and administrative changes from similar provisions in the Existing Credit Facility reasonably requested by the Administrative Agents and consistent
with similar transactions of such agent, (iv) include customary European Union bail-in contractual recognition provisions substantially consistent with recommendations provided by the Loan Syndications & Trading Association related to Article 55
of the Bank Recovery and Resolution Directive, and (v) contain such other terms as the Borrower and the Lead Arrangers shall reasonably agree, in each case the definitive terms of which will be negotiated in good faith within a reasonable time
period to be determined based on the expected Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the First Lien Credit Documentation will contain only those conditions to borrowing, mandatory repayments, representations, warranties, covenants and events
of default expressly set forth herein and in the Commitment Letter (as modified pursuant to the flex provisions of the Fee Letter).

	 Interest
 Rates:
	  	 At the Borrower’s option, First Lien Loans may be maintained from time to time as (x) Base Rate Loans, which shall bear interest at the
Base Rate in effect from time to time (or, in the case of First Lien Term Loans only, if greater at any time, 2.00%) plus the Applicable Margin (as defined below) or (y) LIBOR Loans, which shall bear interest at LIBOR (adjusted for statutory
reserve requirements) as determined by the applicable Administrative Agent for the respective interest period (or, in the case of First Lien Term Loans only, if greater at any time, 1.00%), plus the Applicable Margin.

 
 “Applicable Margin” shall mean a percentage per annum equal to (i) in the
case of First Lien Term Loans (A) maintained as Base Rate Loans, 3.25% and (B) maintained as LIBOR Loans, 4.25%; and (ii) in the case of Revolving Loans (A) maintained as Base Rate Loans, 3.25% and (B) maintained as LIBOR Loans, 4.25%.

 
 “Base Rate” shall mean the highest of (x) the rate that the applicable
Administrative Agent announces from time to time as its prime lending rate, as in effect from time to time, (y) 1/2 of 1% in excess of the overnight federal funds rate, and (z) LIBOR for an interest period of one month (determined after giving
effect to any applicable “floor”) plus 1.00%. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event shall the Base Rate be less than zero.
  

All Swingline Loans will be Base Rate Loans.
  

Interest periods of 1, 2, 3 and 6 months or, to the extent agreed to by all Lenders with commitments and/or First Lien Loans under a given tranche of the First
Lien Credit Facilities, 12 months, shall be available in the case of LIBOR Loans.
  

Interest in respect of Base Rate Loans shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the last business day of each calendar quarter. Interest in respect of LIBOR
Loans shall be payable in arrears at the end of the applicable interest period and every three months in the case of interest periods in excess of three months. Interest will also be payable at the time of repayment of any First Lien Loans and at
maturity. All interest on Base Rate Loans, LIBOR Loans and commitment fees and any other fees shall be based on a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (or, in the case of Base Rate Loans determined by reference to the prime lending rate, a
365/366-day year and actual days elapsed).
  

	Default Interest:	  	Overdue principal, interest and other overdue amounts shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate which is 2.0% in excess of the rate then borne by the applicable borrowing (or, if any such amount does not relate to a
borrowing under a specific tranche of the First Lien Credit Facilities, the rate which is 2.0% in excess of the rate applicable to Revolving Loans maintained as Base Rate Loans). Such interest shall be payable on
demand.

  
 B-16 

			
		
	Yield Protection:	  	 The First Lien Credit Facilities shall include customary protective provisions for such matters as capital adequacy, liquidity, increased
costs, reserves, funding losses, illegality and withholding taxes (it being understood that, for purposes of determining increased costs arising in connection with a change in law, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and

regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued).
  
 The Borrower shall have the right
to replace any Lender that charges a material amount in excess of that being charged by the other Lenders with respect to contingencies described in the immediately preceding sentence.

 

	Commitment Fee:	  	A commitment fee, at a per annum rate of 0.50%, on the daily undrawn portion of the commitments of each Lender under the Revolving Credit Facility (other than the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such), will commence accruing on
the Closing Date and will be payable quarterly in arrears; provided that, so long as no default or event of default exists under the First Lien Credit Facilities, the commitment fee rate shall be subject to a step-down to 0.375% (but, in any
event, not commencing until the delivery of the Borrower’s financial statements in respect of its first full fiscal quarter ending after the Closing Date) based on meeting a First Lien Net Leverage Ratio of 4.00:1.00.
		
	Letter of Credit Fees:	  	A letter of credit fee equal to the Applicable Margin for Revolving Loans maintained as LIBOR Loans on the outstanding stated amount of Letters of Credit (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) to be shared proportionately by

its own account, in each case calculated on the aggregate stated amount of all Letters of Credit for the stated duration thereof. Letter of Credit Fees and Facing Fees shall be payable quarterly in arrears. In addition, the issuer of a Letter of
Credit will be paid its customary administrative charges in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it.
		
	 Agent/

(c)    Financial Covenant.

 
 Limited to springing First Lien Net Leverage Ratio (as described above) of 6.50:1.00 (the
“Financial Covenant”) and applicable to the Revolving Credit Facility only.
  

The Financial Covenant shall be tested on the last day of any fiscal quarter for which financial statements have been, or are required to have been, delivered
(commencing with the last day of the first full fiscal quarter ended after the Closing Date) but only if on the last day of such fiscal quarter the aggregate principal amount of borrowings under the Revolving Facility (including swingline loans) and
outstanding letters of credit (except for (a) undrawn letters of credit and (b) other letters of credit that have been cash collateralized or backstopped) are outstanding in an aggregate amount that exceeds 25% of the total amount of commitments
under the Revolving Facility on such day.

		
	 Unrestricted

Subsidiaries:
	  	The First Lien Credit Documentation will contain provisions pursuant to which, subject to limitations on investments, loans, advances and guarantees and other customary conditions and provisions as set forth in the First Lien Credit
Documentation, the Borrower is permitted to designate any existing or subsequently acquired or organized subsidiary as an “unrestricted subsidiary” and subsequently re-designate any such unrestricted subsidiary as a restricted subsidiary;
provided that (i) after giving effect to any such designation or re-designation, on a pro forma basis the Total Net Leverage Ratio does not exceed a level to be agreed and no event of default shall exist (including after the reclassification of
investments in, debt of, and liens on the assets of, the applicable subsidiary) and (ii) if a restricted subsidiary is being designated as an unrestricted subsidiary, such restricted subsidiary, together with all other unrestricted subsidiaries as
of such date of designation, must not have contributed greater than 10% of the Borrower’s Consolidated EBITDA (calculated inclusive of all unrestricted subsidiaries), as of the most recently ended fiscal quarter of the Borrower.
Unrestricted

  
 B-23 

			
		  	subsidiaries will not be subject to the representations and warranties, the affirmative or negative covenant or event of default provisions of First Lien Credit Documentation, and the results of operations and indebtedness of
unrestricted subsidiaries will not be taken into account for purposes of determining compliance (to the extent applicable) with the negative covenants and financial ratios contained in the First Lien Credit Documentation.
		
	Events of Default:	  	Events of Default (to be applicable to the Borrower and its subsidiaries) will be limited to the following, in each case (where applicable), with cure periods, materiality thresholds, exceptions and qualifications to be mutually
agreed: (i) nonpayment of principal or Letter of Credit drawings when due or interest, fees or other amounts after a grace period to be mutually agreed; (ii) failure to perform or observe covenants set forth in the First Lien Credit Documentation,
subject (where customary and appropriate) to notice and an appropriate grace period to be mutually agreed; (iii) any representation or warranty proving to have been incorrect in any material respect (or, in any respect, if qualified by materiality)
when made or confirmed; (iv) cross-defaults and cross-acceleration to other indebtedness in excess of $50 million; (v) bankruptcy, insolvency proceedings, etc. of the Borrower or any material subsidiary (with a grace period for involuntary
proceedings to be mutually agreed); (vi) inability to pay debts, attachment, etc.; (vii) material unsatisfied judgment defaults in excess of $50 million; (viii) customary ERISA defaults; (ix) actual or asserted invalidity of First Lien Credit
Documentation or subordination provisions or impairment of security interests in the Collateral; and (x) Change of Control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a breach of the Financial Covenant as a “financial maintenance covenant” (and not as
a separate governor for other conditions, baskets, etc.) shall not constitute an event of default for the purposes of the First Lien Term Loan Facility, unless the Required Revolving Lenders (as defined below) under the Revolving Credit Facility
have accelerated the Revolving Credit Facility and/or terminated the commitments in respect thereof as a result of such breach.
		
	 Assignments and

Participations:
	  	The Borrower may not assign its rights or obligations under the First Lien Credit Facilities. After the Closing Date, any Lender may assign, and may sell participations in, its rights and obligations under the First Lien Credit
Facilities, subject (x) in the case of participations, to customary restrictions on the voting rights of the participants and restrictions on participations to the Borrower and its affiliates and (y) in the case of assignments, to such limitations
as may be established by the applicable Administrative Agent (including (i) a minimum assignment amount of $1 million with respect to the First Lien Term Loan Facility and $5 million with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility (or, if less, the
entire amount of such assignor’s commitments

  
 B-24 

			
		  	 and outstanding First Lien Loans at such time), (ii) an assignment fee in the amount of $3,500 to be paid by the respective assignor or
assignee to the applicable Administrative Agent, (iii) restrictions on assignments to any entity that is not an Eligible Transferee (to be defined to exclude natural persons and, except in connection with a Buy-Back (as defined below), the Borrower
and its affiliates), (iv) except in the case of an assignment of any term loan to any Lender, its affiliates or an “approved fund” of a Lender, the receipt of the consent of the applicable Administrative Agent and, after Successful
Syndication and so long as no default or event of default exists under the First Lien Credit Facilities, the Borrower (such consent, in any such case, not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), provided that such consent of the
Borrower shall be deemed to have been given if the Borrower has not responded within five business days of a request for such consents, and (v) in the case of the assignment of any commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility, the consent of the
Swingline Lender and each issuing Lender of a Letter of Credit (such consent, in each case, not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned)). Assignments will be by novation and will not be required to be pro rata among the
First Lien Credit Facilities.
  
 The First Lien Credit Documentation shall provide that
First Lien Term Loans may be purchased by, and assigned to, the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries on a non-pro rata basis through Dutch auctions open to all Lenders with First Lien Term Loans on a pro rata basis in accordance with procedures to be
agreed; provided that (i) no default or event of default then exists under the First Lien Credit Facilities or would result therefrom, (ii) any such First Lien Term Loans shall be automatically and permanently cancelled immediately upon
purchase by the Borrower, (iii) the Borrower shall not be permitted to use the proceeds of Revolving Loans to acquire First Lien Term Loans and (iv) the Borrower complies with certain other conditions as may be required by the Term Loan
Administrative Agent (any such purchase and assignment, a “Buy-Back”).

		
	 Waivers

and Amendments:
	  	Amendments and waivers of the provisions of the First Lien Credit Documentation will require the approval of Lenders holding commitments and/or outstandings (as appropriate) representing more than 50% of the aggregate commitments
and outstandings under the First Lien Credit Facilities (the “Required Lenders”), except that (a) the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby will be required with respect to (i) increases in commitment amounts of such
Lender, (ii) reductions of principal, interest or fees of such Lender, (iii) extensions of scheduled payments of any First Lien Loans (including at final maturity) or times for payment of interest or fees of such Lender, (iv) amendments to the
collateral proceeds waterfall and (v) modifications to the pro rata sharing and payment provisions, assignment provisions

  
 B-25 

			
		  	 or the voting percentages, (b) the consent of all of the Lenders shall be required with respect to releases of all or substantially all of
the Collateral or the value of the Guaranties provided by the Guarantors taken as a whole, (c) the consent of each Letter of Credit issuer, each Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lender shall, as applicable, be required with respect to any
amendment that adversely affects their respective rights and duties and (d) class voting rights for Lenders under each affected tranche of the First Lien Credit Facilities shall be required for certain types of amendments and waivers;
provided that the consent of the Required Revolving Lenders (as defined below) shall be required for any waiver or amendment of conditions precedent to funding under the Revolving Credit Facility; provided, further, that if any
of the matters described in clause (a) or (b) above is agreed to by the Required Lenders, the Borrower shall have the right to either (x) substitute any non-consenting Lender by having its First Lien Loans and commitments assigned, at par, to one or
more other institutions, subject to the assignment provisions described above or (y) with the express written consent of the Required Lenders, terminate the commitment of, and repay the obligations owing to, any non-consenting Lender, subject to
repayment in full of all obligations of the Borrower owed to such Lender relating to the First Lien Loans and participations held by such Lender (including any Prepayment Premium).

 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, amendments to and waivers of the Financial Covenant (solely
as it applies to the Financial Covenant as a “financial maintenance covenant” (and not as a separate governor for other conditions, baskets etc.)) and defined terms as used therein shall require the approval of at least two Lenders holding
more than 50% of the aggregate amount of the commitments and/or outstandings under the Revolving Credit Facility (the “Required Revolving Lenders”) (and for the avoidance of doubt not the approval of the Required Lenders).

 
 In addition, the First Lien Credit Documentation shall provide for the amendment (or
amendment and restatement) of the First Lien Credit Documentation to provide for a new tranche of replacement term loans to replace all or a portion of the term loans of a given tranche under the First Lien Credit Facilities, subject to customary
limitations (including as to tenor, weighted average life to maturity, “effective yield” not exceeding that applicable to the tranche of term loans so replaced, prepayment ratability provisions and applicable covenants prior to the First
Lien Term Loan Maturity Date), with the consent of the Term Loan Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the lenders providing such replacement term loans.

  
 B-26 

			
		  	The First Lien Credit Documentation will contain customary “amend and extend” provisions pursuant to which the Borrower, with the approval of consenting Lenders, may extend the maturity of First Lien Term Loans of such
consenting Lenders and, in connection therewith, amend the interest rates, yield, fees, amortization (so long as the weighted average life to maturity is not shortened) and prepayment provisions applicable to such extended First Lien Term Loans;
provided that the application of voluntary and mandatory prepayments shall not be on a greater than pro rata basis with any non-extending First Lien Term Loans.
		
	Defaulting Lenders:	  	If any Lender under the Revolving Credit Facility becomes a Defaulting Lender (to be defined on terms satisfactory to the Revolving Facility Administrative Agent) at any time, then, so long as no default or event of default then
exists, the exposure of such Defaulting Lender with respect to Letters of Credit will automatically be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility pro rata in accordance with their commitments under the Revolving
Credit Facility up to an amount such that the aggregate credit exposure of such non-Defaulting Lender under the Revolving Credit Facility does not exceed its commitment thereunder. In the event such reallocation does not fully cover the exposure of
such Defaulting Lender (or such reallocation is not then permitted), the applicable Letter of Credit issuer may require the Borrower to repay or cash collateralize, as applicable, such “uncovered” exposure in respect of the Letter of
Credit outstandings, and will have no obligation to issue new Letters of Credit, as applicable, to the extent such Letter of Credit outstandings, as applicable, would exceed the commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders under the Revolving Credit
Facility. The Borrower will not be required to pay fees to any Defaulting Lender and the voting rights of Defaulting Lenders (except in the case of certain customary matters) shall be suspended.
		
	 Indemnification;

Expenses:
	  	The First Lien Credit Documentation will contain customary indemnities for the Administrative Agents, the Lead Arrangers, each issuer of a Letter of Credit, the Lenders and their respective affiliates and the respective directors,
employees, officers and agents of each of the foregoing (including, without limitation, for all reasonable costs and expenses of the Lenders incurred after the occurrence, and during the continuance of, an event of default under the First Lien
Credit Facilities); provided that the Borrower shall not be responsible for the fees and expenses of more than one primary counsel for the Administrative Agents, one legal counsel for each relevant jurisdiction, one other counsel for all
other Lenders and their respective affiliates, employees, officers and agents and, in each case, if reasonably necessary or advisable in the judgment of the affected person in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, an additional
counsel in each such applicable jurisdiction, in each case other than as a result of such person’s gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable
decision.

  
 B-27 

			
		  	  
 The First Lien Credit Documentation will require the Borrower to pay all
reasonable expenses of the Administrative Agents, each issuer of Letters of Credit, the Lead Arrangers and the Lenders associated with the syndication of the First Lien Credit Facilities and the preparation, execution, delivery and administration of
the First Lien Credit Documentation and any amendment or waiver with respect thereto and in connection with the enforcement of the First Lien Credit Documentation.

		
	Governing Law and Forum:	  	All First Lien Credit Documentation shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York (except security documentation that the Administrative Agents determine should be governed by local or foreign law). The Borrower
and the Guarantors will submit to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of any New York State court or Federal court sitting in the County of New York, Borough of Manhattan, and appellate courts thereof (except to the extent the Administrative Agents
require submission to any other jurisdiction in connection with the exercise of any rights under any security document or the enforcement of any judgment).

 Exhibit C 

Project Masterpiece 

Summary of Additional Conditions Precedent 

Capitalized terms used in this Exhibit C but not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the commitment letter to
which this Exhibit C is attached (the “Commitment Letter”) and in the other Exhibits to the Commitment Letter. In the case of any such capitalized term that is subject to multiple and differing definitions, the
appropriate meaning thereof in this Exhibit C shall be determined by reference to the context in which it is used. 
 The
initial borrowing under the First Lien Credit Facilities shall be subject to the following additional conditions precedent: 
 1. The
Agents’ commitments under the First Lien Credit Facilities will be subject to the execution and delivery of definitive Credit Documentation consistent with the terms of the Commitment Letter and the Term Sheets (including the principles set
forth under the “Documentation” headings in the Term Sheets) and this Summary of Additional Conditions Precedent, in each case prepared by counsel to the Agents. 

2. Concurrently with the funding under the First Lien Credit Facilities, the Acquisition shall have been consummated in all material respects
in accordance with the terms and conditions of the definitive acquisition agreement relating to the Acquisition (including, but not limited to, all schedules and exhibits thereto, and as amended, modified, waived or supplemented from time to time,
collectively, the “Acquisition Agreement”), and the Acquisition Agreement shall not have been altered, amended or otherwise changed or supplemented or any provision or condition therein waived by the Borrower, and neither the
Borrower nor any subsidiary shall have consented to any action which would require the consent of the Borrower or any subsidiary thereof under the Acquisition Agreement, if such alteration, amendment, change, supplement, waiver or consent would be
adverse to the interests of the Lenders or the Lead Arrangers in any material respect, in any such case without the prior written consent of the Agents (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) (it being understood and
agreed that any alteration, supplement, amendment, modification, waiver or consent (a) that decreases the purchase price in respect of the Acquisition by 10.0% or more shall be deemed to be adverse to the interests of the Lenders and the Lead
Arrangers in a material respect, and (b) that decreases the purchase price in respect of the Acquisition by less than 10.0% shall not be deemed to be adverse to the interests of the Lenders or the Lead Arrangers in any material respect, so long
as such decrease is allocated to reduce the First Lien Term Loan Facility). 
 3. Since the date of the Acquisition Agreement, there shall
not have occurred and be continuing a Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Acquisition Agreement as in effect on the date hereof) (a “Target Material Adverse Effect”). 

4. All obligations of the Borrower, the Acquired Business and their respective subsidiaries with respect to the indebtedness being refinanced
pursuant to the Refinancing shall have been, or will concurrently with the funding under the First Lien Credit Facilities be, paid in full, and all commitments, security interests and guaranties in connection therewith shall have been, or will
contemporaneously be, terminated and released. After giving effect to the consummation of the Transaction, the Borrower and its subsidiaries shall have no outstanding

(including deferred purchase price obligations, ordinary course working capital facilities for foreign subsidiaries and ordinary course capital lease, purchase money and equipment financings) and (iii) such other existing indebtedness, if any,
as shall be permitted by the Lead Arrangers (debt under clauses (ii) and (iii), the “Permitted Surviving Indebtedness”). 

5. The Guaranties and Security Agreements required by the Term Sheets shall have been executed and delivered by the Borrower and the
Guarantors, and, subject to the Limited Conditionality Provisions, all documents and instruments required to create and perfect the Administrative Agents’ security interests in the Collateral as, and to the extent, required by the First Lien
Credit Facilities Term Sheet shall have been executed and delivered and, if applicable, be in proper form for filing (or arrangements shall have been made for the execution, delivery and filing of such documents and instruments substantially
concurrently with the consummation of the Transactions). 
 6. The Lenders shall have received (1) customary legal opinions from U.S.
counsel to the Borrower and the Guarantors (including, without limitation, New York counsel), (2) a solvency certificate as to the solvency of the Borrower and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis after giving effect to the Transaction, in
the form attached hereto as Annex A, from the chief financial officer of the Borrower and (3) other customary closing and corporate documents, resolutions, certificates, instruments, lien searches and deliverables.

Borrower and the Acquired Business for the two fiscal years of the Borrower and the Acquired Business ended at least 90 days prior to the Closing Date, (2) unaudited consolidated balance sheets and related statements of income and cash flows of
each of the Borrower and the Acquired Business for each fiscal quarter of the Borrower or the Acquired Business, as applicable, ended after the close of its most recent fiscal year and at least 45 days prior to the Closing Date, and (3) a
pro forma consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower and its subsidiaries (including the Acquired Business) and a pro forma consolidated statement of income of the Borrower for the twelve-month period ending on the last day of the most
recently completed four fiscal quarter period ended at least 45 days before the Closing Date, prepared after giving effect to the Transaction as if the Transaction had occurred as of such date (in the case of such balance sheet) or at the beginning
of such period (in the case of such statement of income), which in each case need not be prepared in compliance with Regulation S-X of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or include adjustments for purchase accounting (including adjustments of
the type contemplated by Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification 805, Business Combinations (formerly SFAS 141R)). The Lead Arrangers hereby acknowledge receipt of all of the financial information of the Borrower
required by clauses (1) and (2) hereof for all periods of the Borrower ended prior to the date hereof and agrees that the filing with the SEC of an annual or quarterly report on Form 10-K or Form 10-Q by the Borrower containing any
required unaudited financial statements or audited financial statements will satisfy the foregoing requirements (solely with respect to the Borrower) in clauses (1) and (2) above. 

  
 C-2 

 8. All costs, fees, expenses (including, without limitation, legal fees and expenses) and other
compensation contemplated hereby, payable to each Agent and the Lenders or otherwise payable in respect of the Transaction shall have been paid, or shall be paid concurrently with the funding under the First Lien Credit Facilities, to the extent due
pursuant to the Commitment Letter or the Fee Letter and (solely in the case of costs and expenses) to the extent an invoice therefor has been presented at least two Business Days prior to the Closing Date. 

9. The Agents shall have received at least three Business Days prior to the Closing Date all documentation and other information required by
regulatory authorities under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including without limitation the PATRIOT Act, but only to the extent requested to the Borrower in writing at least ten Business
Days prior to the Closing Date. 
 10. With respect to each of the First Lien Credit Facilities, the Borrower (a) shall have delivered
(or caused to be delivered) to the Lead Arrangers information customarily delivered by a borrower and necessary for the preparation of a customary confidential information memorandum for senior secured facilities (it being understood and agreed that
such information shall not include any information customarily delivered by an investment bank in the preparation of such a confidential information memorandum), including, without limitation, the financial statements referred to in paragraph 7
above (collectively, the “Required Information”) and (b) shall have provided the Lead Arrangers a period of not less than 15 consecutive business days after the Lead Arrangers’ receipt of the Required Information (the
“Marketing Period”) to attempt to market and syndicate the First Lien Credit Facilities (provided that (a) if the Marketing Period has not been completed on or prior to December 18, 2017, the Marketing Period shall
commence no earlier than January 2, 2018 and (b) November 24, 2017 shall be excluded from the determination of such 15 consecutive business day period (the “Blackout Period”)). If the Borrower reasonably believes it
has delivered the Required Information, the Borrower may deliver to the Lead Arrangers a written notice to that effect. The notice delivered by the Borrower will be effective to start the Marketing Period as of the date of delivery of such notice
(or such later date specified in such notice), unless on or prior to the second Business Day following delivery of the Borrower’s notice, the Lead Arrangers deliver written notice to the Borrower stating that it does not believe the Borrower
has delivered the Required Information and specifying in reasonable detail the Required Information that has not been received (provided that delivery of such written notice from the Lead Arrangers to the Borrower will not prejudice the
Borrower’s right to assert that the Required Information has, in fact, been delivered).

 Annex A to Exhibit C 

FORM OF SOLVENCY CERTIFICATE 

[•],              

This Solvency Certificate is being executed and delivered pursuant to Section [•] of that certain [•]1 (the “Credit Agreement”); the terms defined therein being used herein as therein defined. 

I, [•], the chief financial officer of the Borrower, solely in such capacity and not in an individual capacity, hereby certify that I am
the chief financial officer of the Borrower and that I am generally familiar with the businesses and assets of the Borrower and its subsidiaries (taken as a whole), and I am duly authorized to execute this Solvency Certificate on behalf of the
Borrower pursuant to the Credit Agreement. 
 I further certify, solely in my capacity as chief financial officer of the Borrower, and not
in my individual capacity, as of the date hereof and after giving effect to the Transactions and the incurrence of the indebtedness and obligations being incurred in connection with the Credit Agreement and the Transactions on the date hereof, that,
(i) the sum of the debt (including contingent liabilities) of the Borrower and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, does not exceed the fair value of the present assets of the Borrower and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole; (ii) the
present fair saleable value of the assets of the Borrower and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, is not less than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liabilities (including contingent liabilities) of the Borrower and its
subsidiaries, taken as a whole, on their debts as they become absolute and matured; (iii) the capital of the Borrower and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, is not unreasonably small in relation to the business of the Borrower or its
subsidiaries, taken as a whole, contemplated as of the date hereof; and (iv) the Borrower and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, are able to pay their debts (including current obligations and contingent liabilities) as such debts mature and do
not intend to incur, or believe that they will incur, debts (including current obligations and contingent liabilities) beyond their ability to pay such debt as they mature in the ordinary course of business. For the purposes hereof, the amount of
any contingent liability at any time shall be computed as the amount that, in light of all of the facts and circumstances existing at such time, represents the amount that can reasonably be expected to become an actual or matured liability
(irrespective of whether such contingent liabilities meet the criteria for accrual under Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 5).
