 (iii) payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document
that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or 
  

 - 27 - 

 (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the
foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. 
  
 None of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor the Issuing Bank, nor any of their Related
Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in
the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing
thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank from liability to the
Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by the Issuing
Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful
misconduct on the part of the Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the
generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make
payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the
terms of such Letter of Credit. 
  
 (g) Disbursement
Procedures. The Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the
Borrower by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the
Borrower of its obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank and/or the Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement. 
  
 (h) Interim Interest. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full as
required by paragraph (e) above, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is due and payable to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate
per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans (or in the case such LC Disbursement is denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars, at the rate determined in good faith by the Issuing Bank to represent the Issuing Bank’s cost of
overnight or short-term funds in the applicable Agreed Currency plus the then effective Applicable Rate with respect to Eurocurrency Revolving Loans); provided that, if the Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due
pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, then Section 2.13(c) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the Issuing Bank, 

  

 - 28 - 

 
except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse the Issuing Bank shall be
for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment. 
  
 (i) Replacement of the Issuing Bank. The Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent
shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of the Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.12(b).
From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii)
references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing
Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but
shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit. 
  
 (j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been
accelerated, Lenders with LC Exposure representing at least 51% of the total LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the
Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders, an amount in cash equal to the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become
effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Borrower described in clause (h) or (i) of Article VII.
Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent in interest-bearing accounts selected at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the Borrower’s risk and expense as collateral for the payment and performance of
the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative
Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the LC Exposure at such time or,
if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Lenders with LC Exposure representing at least 51% of the total LC Exposure), be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. If the
Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower within three Business Days after all
Events of Default have been cured or waived. 
  

 - 29 - 

 SECTION 2.07. Funding of Borrowings. 
  
 (a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately
available funds (i) in the case of each Loan denominated in Dollars, by 12:00 noon, New York City time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders and (ii) in the case of each
Loan denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars, by 12:00 noon, local time, in the city of the Administrative Agent’s Eurocurrency Payment Office for such currency and at such Eurocurrency Payment Office for such currency. The
Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent in New York City and designated by the Borrower
in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that ABR Revolving Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.06(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Issuing Bank. 
  
 (b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender
prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such
date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available
to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is
made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with
banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan
included in such Borrowing. 
  
 SECTION 2.08. Interest
Elections. 
  
 (a) Each Revolving Borrowing initially shall be
of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert such
Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to
different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate
Borrowing. 
  
 (b) To make an election pursuant to this Section,
the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrower were requesting a Revolving Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election
to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by 

  

 - 30 - 

 
hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the
Borrower. 
  
 (c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election
Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02: 
  
 (i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different
portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing); 
  
 (ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to
such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day; 
  
 (iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing; and 
  
 (iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the Agreed Currency and Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving
effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”. 
  
 If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an
Interest Period of one month’s duration. 
  
 (d) Promptly
following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing. 
  
 (e) If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing
prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period (i) in the case of a Borrowing denominated in Dollars, such Borrowing shall be converted to an
ABR Borrowing and (ii) in the case of a Borrowing denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars, such Borrowing shall automatically continue as a Eurocurrency Borrowing in the same Agreed Currency with an Interest Period of one month unless
(x) such Eurocurrency Borrowing is or was repaid in accordance with Section 2.7 or (y) the Borrower shall have given the Administrative Agent an Interest Election Request requesting that, at the end of such Interest Period, such Eurocurrency
Borrowing continue as a Eurocurrency Borrowing for the same or another Interest Period. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required
Lenders, so notifies the Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Revolving Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing
shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto. 
  

 - 31 - 

 SECTION 2.09. Termination and Reduction of Commitments. 
  
 (a) Unless previously terminated, the Commitments shall terminate on the
Maturity Date. 
  
 (b) The Borrower may at any time terminate, or
from time to time reduce, the Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000 and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce
the Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans and reimbursement of LC Disbursements in accordance with Section 2.11, the Dollar Amount of the sum of the Revolving Credit Exposures would exceed the Aggregate
Commitment. 
  
 (c) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative
Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof.
Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of
the Commitments delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the
specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their Applicable
Percentages. 
  
 SECTION 2.10. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of
Debt. 
  
 (a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to
pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan on the Maturity Date. 
  
 (b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender
resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. 
  
 (c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Class, Agreed Currency and
Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the
Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof. 
  
 (d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section shall be conclusive evidence (absent manifest error) of
the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner 

  

 - 32 - 

 
affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
  
 (e) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory
note. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form approved by the
Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the
order of the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns). 
  
 SECTION 2.11. Prepayment of Loans. 
  
 (a) The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, subject to (i) prior notice in
accordance with paragraph (b) of this Section, (ii) the payment of the funding compensation required by Section 2.16 and (iii) such prepayment being in an amount that is not less than $1,000,000. 
  
 (b) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone
(confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment or (ii) in the case of
prepayment of an ABR Revolving Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each
Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that, if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.09, then such notice of prepayment may be
revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.09. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Revolving Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each
partial prepayment of any Revolving Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Revolving Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02. Each prepayment of a Revolving Borrowing shall be applied
ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.13. 
  
 SECTION 2.12. Fees. 
  
 (a) (i) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a facility fee, which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on
the daily amount of the Commitment of such Lender (whether used or unused) during the period from and including the date hereof but excluding the date on which such Commitment terminates; provided that, if such Lender continues to have any
Revolving Credit Exposure after its Commitment terminates, then such facility fee shall continue to accrue on the daily amount of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure from and including the date on which its Commitment terminates to but
excluding the date on which such Lender ceases to have any Revolving Credit Exposure. Accrued facility fees shall be payable in arrears on the last day of March, June, 

  

 - 33 - 

 
September and December of each year and on the date on which the Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereof;
provided that any facility fees accruing after the date on which the Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. All facility fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days
elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). 
  
 (ii) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a utilization fee, which shall accrue at the rate of 0.125% on the average daily Revolving Credit Exposures (including any
Revolving Credit Exposure for such Lender after the termination of such Lender’s Commitment) for such Lender during each fiscal quarter in which the total Revolving Credit Exposures for all the Lenders at any time exceeds 50% of the Aggregate
Commitment. Accrued utilization fees shall be payable in arrears on the last day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date
hereof; provided that any utilization fee accruing after the date on which the Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. All utilization fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual
number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). 
  
 (b) The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the same Applicable Rate
used to determine the interest rate applicable to Eurocurrency Revolving Loans on the average daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and
including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (ii) to the Issuing Bank a fronting fee, which shall accrue
at the rate of 0.125% per annum on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the
date of termination of the Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure, as well as the Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of
drawings thereunder. Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable on the third Business Day following such last day, commencing on the first such
date to occur after the Effective Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any
other fees payable to the Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within 10 days after demand. All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number
of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). 
  
 (c) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. 
  
 (d) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately
available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the Issuing Bank, in the case of fees payable 

  

 - 34 - 

 
to it) for distribution, in the case of facility fees and participation fees, to the Lenders. Fees (other than fees calculated in error) paid shall not be
refundable under any circumstances. 
  
 SECTION 2.13.
Interest. 
  
 (a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing
shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate. 
  
 (b) The Loans comprising each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate. 
  
 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any
Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal
to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section, (ii) in the case of any fee payable pursuant to Section 2.12(b)(i), 2% plus the rate
otherwise applicable to such fee as provided in such Section or (iii) in the case of any other amount, 2% plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section. 
  
 (d) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each
Interest Payment Date for such Loan and, in the case of Revolving Loans, upon termination of the Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any
repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan prior to the end of the Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or
prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurocurrency Revolving Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion. 
  
 (e) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360
days, except that interest (i) computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year) and (ii) for
Borrowings denominated in British Pounds Sterling shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days, and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable
Alternate Base Rate, Adjusted LIBO Rate or LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
  
 SECTION 2.14. Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency
Borrowing: 
  
 (a) the Administrative Agent determines (which
determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period; or 
  

 - 35 - 

 (b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO
Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period; 
  
 then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by
telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests
the conversion of any Revolving Borrowing to, or continuation of any Revolving Borrowing as, a Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be ineffective, (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an
ABR Borrowing; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Type of Borrowings, then the other Type of Borrowings shall be permitted. 
  
 SECTION 2.15. Increased Costs. 
  
 (a) If any Change in Law shall: 
  
 (i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the
account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate) or the Issuing Bank; or 
  
 (ii) impose on any Lender or the Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or Eurocurrency
Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; 
  
 and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurocurrency Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan (including, without limitation, pursuant to any
conversion of any Borrowing denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Euro into a Borrowing denominated in Euro) or to increase the cost to such Lender or the Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit
(including, without limitation, pursuant to any conversion of any Borrowing denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Euro into a Borrowing denominated in Euro) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the
Issuing Bank hereunder, whether of principal, interest or otherwise (including, without limitation, pursuant to any conversion of any Borrowing denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Euro into a Borrowing denominated in Euro), then the
Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. 

 
 (b) If any Lender or the Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law
regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a
consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the 

  

 - 36 - 

 
Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company could have
achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time
to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such
reduction suffered. 
  
 (c) A certificate of a Lender or the
Issuing Bank setting forth in reasonable detail the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the
Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. 
  
 (d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Bank to demand
compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the Issuing
Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased
costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the
180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. 
  
 SECTION 2.16. Break Funding Payments. In the event of 
  
 (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an
Event of Default), 
  
 (b) the conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan
other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, 
  
 (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Revolving Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.11(b) and is revoked in accordance
therewith), or 
  
 (d) the assignment of any Eurocurrency Loan
other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.19, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to
such event. In the case of a Eurocurrency Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of 
  
 (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not
occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of 

  

 - 37 - 

 
the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest
Period for such Loan), over 
  
 (ii) the amount
of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for deposits in the relevant currency of a comparable amount and period from
other banks in the eurocurrency market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth in reasonable detail any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive
absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. 
  
 SECTION 2.17. Taxes. 
  
 (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if the Borrower shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then 
  
 (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including
deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, 
  
 (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions and 

 
 (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to
the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 
  
 (b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 
  
 (c) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Issuing Bank, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full
amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder (including
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or
Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate in reasonable detail as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender or the Issuing Bank, or by the
Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
  
 (d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver
to the 

  

 - 38 - 

 
Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return
reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
  
 (e) Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is
located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law, such properly
completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate. 
  
 SECTION 2.18. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs. 
  
 (a) The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder
(whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17, or otherwise) prior to (i) in the case of payments denominated in Dollars, 12:00 noon, New York City time and (ii) in
the case of payments denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars, 12:00 noon, local time, in the city of the Administrative Agent’s Eurocurrency Payment Office for such currency, in each case on the date when due, in immediately
available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating
interest thereon. All such payments shall be made (i) in the same currency in which the applicable Credit Event was made (or where such currency has been converted to the Euro, in the Euro) and (ii) to the Administrative Agent at its offices at 1111
Fannin, 10th Floor, Houston, Texas 77002 or, in the case of a Borrowing denominated in an Agreed Currency other than
Dollars, the Administrative Agent’s Eurocurrency Payment Office, except payments to be made directly to the Issuing Bank as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 shall be made directly
to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments denominated in the same currency received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any
payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of
such extension. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, if, after the making of any Credit Event in any currency other than Dollars, currency control or exchange regulations are imposed in the country which issues such currency
with the result that the type of currency in which the Credit Event was made (the “Original Currency”) no longer exists or the Borrower is not able to make payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders in such Original
Currency, then all payments to be made by the Borrower hereunder in such currency shall instead be made when due in Dollars in an amount equal to the Dollar Amount (as of the date of repayment) of such payment due, it being the intention of the
parties hereto that the Borrower takes all risks of the imposition of any such currency control or exchange regulations. 
  

 - 39 - 

 (b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay
fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied 
  
 (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the
amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and 
  
 (ii) second, towards payment of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements
then due to such parties. 
  
 (c) If any Lender shall, by
exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Revolving Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater
proportion of the aggregate amount of its Revolving Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for
cash at face value) participations in the Revolving Loans and participations in LC Disbursements of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their
respective Applicable Percentages; provided that 
  
 (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such
recovery, without interest, and 
  
 (ii) the
provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or
sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). The
Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and
counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. 
  
 (d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent
for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such
assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to
repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so 

  

 - 40 - 

 
distributed to such Lender or Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding
the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. 
  
 (e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it
pursuant to Section 2.05(c), 2.06(d) or (e), 2.07(b) or 2.18(d), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account
of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid. 
  
 SECTION 2.19. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. 
  
 (a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to
any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights
and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment 
  
 (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.17, as the case may be, in the future and 
  
 (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost
or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. 
  
 (b) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if the
Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, or if any Lender defaults in its obligation to fund Loans hereunder, then the Borrower may, at its
sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights
and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that 
  
 (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and, if a
Commitment is being assigned, the Issuing Bank), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, 
  
 (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in LC
Disbursements, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and

  

 - 41 - 

 (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under
Section 2.15 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.17, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a
result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. 
  
 SECTION 2.20. Changes in Capital Adequacy Regulations. If a Lender determines the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such
Lender, any relevant office, branch, subsidiary or affiliate of such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender is increased as a result of a Change, then, within 15 days of demand by such Lender (accompanied by a certificate setting forth in
reasonable detail a calculation of the amount so demanded), the Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount necessary to compensate for any shortfall in the rate of return on the portion of such increased capital which such Lender determines is
attributable to this Agreement, its Loans or its Commitment to make Loans hereunder (after taking into account such Lender’s policies as to capital adequacy). “Change” means (i) any change after the date of this Agreement in the
Risk-Based Capital Guidelines or (ii) any adoption of or change in any other law, governmental or quasi-governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline, interpretation, or directive (whether or not having the force of law) after the date of this
Agreement which affects the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by any Lender or any Lending Installation or any corporation controlling any Lender. “Risk-Based Capital Guidelines” means (i) the risk-based capital
guidelines in effect in the United States on the date of this Agreement, including transition rules, and (ii) the corresponding capital regulations promulgated by regulatory authorities outside the United States implementing the July 1988 report of
the Basle Committee on Banking Regulation and Supervisory Practices Entitled “International Convergence of Capital Measurements and Capital Standards,” including transition rules, and any amendments to such regulations adopted prior to the
date of this Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 2.21. Market
Disruption. Notwithstanding the satisfaction of all conditions referred to in Article II and Article IV with respect to any Credit Event to be effected in any Agreed Currency other than Dollars, if (i) there shall occur on or prior to the date
of such Credit Event any change in national or international financial, political or economic conditions or currency exchange rates or exchange controls which would in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank (if such
Credit Event is a Letter of Credit) or the Required Lenders make it impracticable for the Eurocurrency Borrowings or Letters of Credit comprising such Credit Event to be denominated in the Agreed Currency specified by the Borrower, (ii) such
currency is no longer an Eligible Currency or (iii) an Equivalent Amount of such currency is not readily calculable, then the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrower, the Lenders and, if such Credit Event is a Letter
of Credit, the Issuing Bank, and such Credit Events shall not be denominated in such Agreed Currency but shall, except as otherwise set forth in Section 2.07, be made on the date of such Credit Event in Dollars, (a) if such Credit Event is a
Borrowing, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Dollar Amount of the aggregate principal amount specified in the related Credit Event Request or Interest Election Request, as the case may be, as ABR Loans, unless the Borrower notifies the
Administrative Agent at least one Business Day before such date that (i) it elects not to borrow on such date or (ii) it elects to borrow on such date in a different Agreed Currency, as the case 

  

 - 42 - 

 
may be, in which the denomination of such Loans would in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders be practicable and in an
aggregate principal amount equal to the Dollar Amount of the aggregate principal amount specified in the related Credit Event Request or Interest Election Request, as the case may be or (b) if such Credit Event is a Letter of Credit, in a face
amount equal to the Dollar Amount of the face amount specified in the related request or application for such Letter of Credit, unless the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent at least one Business Day before such date that (i) it elects not
to request the issuance of such Letter of Credit on such date or (ii) it elects to have such Letter of Credit issued on such date in a different Agreed Currency, as the case may be, in which the denomination of such Letter of Credit would in the
reasonable opinion of the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders be practicable and in face amount equal to the Dollar Amount of the face amount specified in the related request or application for such Letter of Credit, as
the case may be. 
  
 SECTION 2.22. Judgment Currency. If
for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due from the Borrower hereunder in the currency expressed to be payable herein (the “specified currency”) into another currency, the parties hereto agree,
to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the specified currency with such other currency at the
Administrative Agent’s main New York City office on the Business Day preceding that on which final, non-appealable judgment is given. The obligations of the Borrower in respect of any sum due to any Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder
shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than the specified currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) of any sum adjudged to
be so due in such other currency such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) may in accordance with normal, reasonable banking procedures purchase the specified currency with such other currency. If the amount of the specified
currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency, the Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation
and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, against such loss, and if the amount of the specified currency so purchased exceeds (a) the sum originally due to any Lender or the
Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency and (b) any amounts shared with other Lenders as a result of allocations of such excess as a disproportionate payment to such Lender under Section 2.18, such Lender or the
Administrative Agent, as the case may be, agrees to remit such excess to the Borrower. 
  
 SECTION 2.23. Increase of Commitments. 
  
 (a) At any time, the Borrower may request that the Aggregate Commitment be increased; provided that, without the prior written consent of all of the Lenders, (i) the Aggregate Commitment shall at no time exceed
$80,000,000 minus the aggregate amount of all reductions in the Aggregate Commitment previously made pursuant to Section 2.09; (ii) the Borrower shall not make any such request during the six month period following any reduction in the Aggregate
Commitment previously made pursuant to Section 2.09; (iii) the Borrower shall not be entitled to make any such request more frequently than once in each 12-month period; and (iv) each such 

  

 - 43 - 

 
request shall be in a minimum amount of at least $5,000,000 and increments of $5,000,000 in excess thereof. Such request shall be made in a written notice
given to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders by the Borrower not less than twenty (20) Business Days prior to the proposed effective date of such increase, which notice (a “Commitment Increase Notice”) shall specify the amount
of the proposed increase in the Aggregate Commitment and the proposed effective date of such increase. In the event of such a Commitment Increase Notice, each of the Lenders shall be given the opportunity to participate in the requested increase
ratably in proportions that their respective Commitments bear to the Aggregate Commitment. No Lender shall have any obligation to increase its Commitment pursuant to a Commitment Increase Notice. On or prior to the date that is ten (10) Business
Days after receipt of the Commitment Increase Notice, each Lender shall submit to the Administrative Agent a notice indicating the maximum amount by which it is willing to increase its Commitment in connection with such Commitment Increase Notice
(any such notice to the Administrative Agent being herein a “Lender Increase Notice”). Any Lender which does not submit a Lender Increase Notice to the Administrative Agent prior to the expiration of such ten (10) Business Day
period shall be deemed to have denied any increase in its Commitment. In the event that the increases of Commitments set forth in the Lender Increase Notices exceed the amount requested by the Borrower in the Commitment Increase Notice, the
Administrative Agent shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to allocate the amount of increases necessary to meet the Borrower’s Commitment Increase Notice. In the event that the Lender Increase Notices are less than the
amount requested by the Borrower, not later than three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed effective date the Borrower may notify the Administrative Agent of any financial institution that shall have agreed to become a “Lender” party
hereto (a “Proposed New Lender”) in connection with the Commitment Increase Notice. Any Proposed New Lender shall be consented to by the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). If the Borrower shall
not have arranged any Proposed New Lender(s) to commit to the shortfall from the Lender Increase Notices, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have reduced the amount of its Commitment Increase Notice to the aggregate amount set forth in the Lender
Increase Notices. Based upon the Lender Increase Notices, any allocations made in connection therewith and any notice regarding any Proposed New Lender, if applicable, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders on or before
the Business Day immediately prior to the proposed effective date of the amount of each Lender’s and Proposed New Lenders’ Commitment (the “Effective Commitment Amount”) and the amount of the Aggregate Commitment, which
amount shall be effective on the following Business Day. Any increase in the Aggregate Commitment shall be subject to the following conditions precedent: (A) the Borrower shall have obtained the consent thereto of each Subsidiary Guarantor and its
reaffirmation of the Loan Document(s) executed by it, which consent and reaffirmation shall be in writing and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (B) as of the date of the Commitment Increase Notice and as of
the proposed effective date of the increase in the Aggregate Commitment, all representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects as though made on such date and no event shall have occurred and then be continuing which
constitutes a Default or Event of Default, (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Proposed New Lender or Lender that shall have agreed to provide a “Commitment” in support of such increase in the Aggregate Commitment shall
have executed and delivered a “Commitment and Acceptance” substantially in the form of Exhibit D hereto, (D) counsel for the Borrower and for the Guarantors shall have provided to the Administrative 

  

 - 44 - 

 
Agent supplemental opinions in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and (E) the Borrower and each Proposed New Lender shall
otherwise have executed and delivered such other instruments and documents as may be required under Article IV or that the Administrative Agent shall have reasonably requested in connection with such increase. If any fee shall be charged by the
Lenders in connection with any such increase, such fee shall be in accordance with then prevailing market conditions, which market conditions shall have been reasonably documented by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower. Upon satisfaction of the
conditions precedent to any increase in the Aggregate Commitment, the Administrative Agent shall promptly advise the Borrower and each Lender of the effective date of such increase. Upon the effective date of any increase in the Aggregate Commitment
that is supported by a Proposed New Lender, such Proposed New Lender shall be a party to this Agreement as a Lender and shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder. Nothing contained herein shall constitute, or otherwise be deemed to
be, a commitment on the part of any Lender to increase its Commitment at any time. 
  
 (b) For purposes of this clause (b), (A) the term “Buying Lender(s)” shall mean (1) each Lender the Effective Commitment Amount of which is greater than its Commitment prior to the effective date of
any increase in the Aggregate Commitment, and (2) each Proposed New Lender that is allocated an Effective Commitment Amount in connection with any Commitment Increase Notice, (B) the term “Selling Lender(s)” shall mean each Lender
whose Commitment is not being increased from that in effect prior to such increase in the Aggregate Commitment and (C) the term “Percentage” shall mean with respect to any Lender, the percentage obtained by dividing (w) such
Lender’s Commitment at such time (as adjusted from time to time in accordance herewith) by (x) the total Commitments at such time (as adjusted from time to time in accordance herewith); provided, if all of the Commitments are terminated
pursuant hereto, then “Percentage” means the percentage obtained by dividing (y) such Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposures by (z) the total Revolving Credit Exposures of all the Lenders. Effective on the effective date of any
increase in the Aggregate Commitment pursuant to clause (a) above, each Selling Lender hereby sells, grants, assigns and conveys to each Buying Lender, without recourse, warranty, or representation of any kind, except as specifically provided
herein, an undivided percentage in such Selling Lender’s right, title and interest in and to its Revolving Credit Exposure in the respective Dollar Amounts and percentages necessary so that, from and after such sale, each such Selling
Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure shall equal such Selling Lender’s Percentage (calculated based upon the Effective Commitment Amounts) of the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposures. Effective on the effective date of the increase in the
Aggregate Commitment pursuant to clause (a) above, each Buying Lender hereby purchases and accepts such grant, assignment and conveyance from the Selling Lenders. Each Buying Lender hereby agrees that its respective purchase price for the portion of
the Revolving Credit Exposure purchased hereby shall equal the respective Dollar Amount necessary so that, from and after such payments, each Buying Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure shall equal such Buying Lender’s Percentage (calculated
based upon the Effective Commitment Amounts) of the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposures. Such amount shall be payable on the effective date of the increase in the Aggregate Commitment by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the
Administrative Agent. Each Selling Lender hereby represents and warrants to each Buying Lender that such Selling Lender owns the Revolving Credit Exposure being sold and assigned hereby for its own account and has not sold, transferred or encumbered
any or all of its interest in such Loans, except for participations which will be extinguished upon payment to Selling Lender 

  

 - 45 - 

 
of an amount equal to the portion of the Revolving Credit Exposure being sold by such Selling Lender. Each Buying Lender hereby acknowledges and agrees that,
except for each Selling Lender’s representations and warranties contained in the foregoing sentence, each such Buying Lender has entered into its Commitment and Acceptance with respect to such increase on the basis of its own independent
investigation and has not relied upon, and will not rely upon, any explicit or implicit written or oral representation, warranty or other statement of the Lenders or the Agent concerning the authorization, execution, legality, validity,
effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. The Borrower hereby agrees to compensate each Selling Lender for all losses, expenses and liabilities incurred by each Lender in connection with
the sale and assignment of any Eurocurrency Loan hereunder on the terms and in the manner as set forth in Section 2.16 hereof.

subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law. 
  

 - 46 -

 (d) will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any asset of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, other than Liens created pursuant to the Loan Documents. 
  
 SECTION 3.04. Financial Condition; No Material Adverse Change. 
  
 (a) The Borrower has heretofore furnished to the Lenders (or made available

statements referred to in clause (ii) above. 
  
 (b) Since
September 30, 2003, except as otherwise disclosed by the Borrower in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2003, there has been no Material Adverse Change.

  
 SECTION 3.05. Properties. 
  
 (a) Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries has good title to, or valid
leasehold interests in, all its real and personal property material to its business, except for minor defects in title that do not interfere with its ability to conduct its business as currently conducted or to utilize such properties for their
intended purposes. 
  
 (b) Each of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries owns, or is licensed to use, all trademarks, trade names, copyrights, patents and other intellectual property material to its business, and the use thereof by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries does not infringe upon the rights of any
other Person, except for any such infringements that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
  

 - 47 - 

 SECTION 3.06. Litigation, Labor Matters and Environmental Matters. 
  
 (a) There are no actions, suits or proceedings by or before any arbitrator or
Governmental Authority pending against or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened against or affecting the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (i) as to which there is a reasonable possibility of an adverse determination and that, if adversely
determined, could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect (other than the Disclosed Matters) or (ii) that involve this Agreement or the Transactions. 
  
 (b) There are no labor controversies pending against or, to the knowledge of
the Borrower, threatened against or affecting the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (i) which could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect, or (ii) that involve this Agreement or the
Transactions. 
  
 (c) Except for the Disclosed Matters and except
with respect to any other matters that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries 
  
 (i) has failed to comply with any Environmental Law or to
obtain, maintain or comply with any permit, license or other approval required under any Environmental Law, 
  
 (ii) has become subject to any Environmental Liability, 
  
 (iii) has received notice of any claim with respect to any Environmental Liability or 
  
 (iv) knows of any basis for any Environmental Liability.

  
 (d) Since the date of this Agreement, there has been no change
in the status of the Disclosed Matters that, individually or in the aggregate, has resulted in, or materially increased the likelihood of, a Material Adverse Effect.

information furnished by or on behalf of the Borrower to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement or delivered hereunder (as modified or supplemented by other information so furnished) contained,

 ARTICLE VIII 
  
 The Administrative Agent 
  
 Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as its agent and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take
such actions on its behalf and on the behalf of the Holders of Secured Obligations and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental
thereto. 
  
 The bank serving as the Administrative Agent
hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and such bank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and
generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder. 
  
 The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, 
  
 (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject
to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, 
  
 (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights
and powers expressly contemplated hereby that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing as directed by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as
provided in Section 9.02), and 
  
 (c) except as expressly set
forth herein, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information 

  

 - 66 - 

 
relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates
in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the
circumstances as provided in Section 9.02) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the
Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into 
  
 (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement, 
  
 (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other
document delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, 
  
 (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein, 
  
 (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement or any other agreement, instrument or document,

  
 (v) the satisfaction of any condition set
forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent, or 
  
 (vi) the perfection or priority of any of the Liens on any of the Collateral. 
  
 The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur
any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely
upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the
Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. 
  
 The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise
its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective
Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection
with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. 
  

 - 67 - 

 Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided in this
paragraph, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the written consent of the Borrower so long as no
Event of Default exists (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the
retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New
York, or an Affiliate of any such bank. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring
Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as (and without duplication of) those
payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such
retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as Administrative Agent. 
  
 Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon
the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently
and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon
this Agreement, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. 
  
 Each Lender authorizes the Administrative Agent to enter into each of the Collateral Documents to which the Administrative Agent is from time to time a party and to take all action contemplated by such documents. Each
Lender agrees that no Holder of Secured Obligations (other than the Administrative Agent) shall have the right individually to seek to realize upon the security granted by any Collateral Document, it being understood and agreed that such rights and
remedies may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Holders of Secured Obligations upon the terms of the Collateral Documents. 
  

In the event that any Collateral is hereafter pledged by any Person as collateral security for the Obligations, the Administrative Agent is hereby
authorized, and granted a power of attorney, to execute and deliver on behalf of the Holders of Secured Obligations any Loan Documents necessary or appropriate to grant and perfect a Lien on such Collateral in favor of the Administrative Agent on
behalf of the Holders of Secured Obligations. 
  
 The Lenders
hereby authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held by the Administrative Agent upon any Collateral (i) upon termination of the Commitments and payment and satisfaction of all of the
Obligations at any time arising under or in respect of this Agreement or the Loan Documents or 

  

 - 68 - 

 
the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby; (ii) as permitted by, but only in accordance with, the terms of the applicable Loan Document; or (iii) if
approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders, unless such release is required to be approved by all of the Lenders hereunder. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall, and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative
Agent, to promptly release any Subsidiary Guarantor which becomes an Affected Foreign Subsidiary from the Subsidiary Guaranty; provided that (i) nothing contained in this sentence shall relieve the Borrower or any Subsidiary from its obligations
under Sections 5.09 or 5.10 and (ii) the Borrower and each applicable Subsidiary shall comply with Section 5.10. Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to
release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Article VIII. 
  
 Upon any sale or transfer of assets constituting Collateral which is expressly permitted pursuant to the terms of any Loan Document, or consented to in writing by the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders, as
applicable, and upon at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written request by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by the Lenders to) execute such documents as may be necessary to evidence the
release of the Liens granted to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Holders of Secured Obligations herein or pursuant hereto upon the Collateral that was sold or transferred; provided, however, that (i) the Administrative Agent shall not
be required to execute any such document on terms which, in the Administrative Agent’s opinion, would expose the Administrative Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Liens without
recourse or warranty, and (ii) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Secured Obligations or any Liens upon (or obligations of the Borrower or any Subsidiary in respect of) all interests retained by the Borrower or any
Subsidiary, including (without limitation) the proceeds of the sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral.

 SECTION 9.02. Waivers; Amendments. 
  
 (a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power
hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any
provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the
specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the
Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. 
  
 (b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered
into by the Borrower and the Required Lenders or by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall

or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, 
  

(iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement, or any interest thereon, or any
fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, 
  
 (iv) change Section 2.18(b) or (c) in a manner that would
alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender, 
  
 (v) change any of the provisions of this Section or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof
specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender; provided further that no such
agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, or 
  
 (vi) other than pursuant to a transaction permitted by the
terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, release all or substantially all of the Collateral which is subject to the Loan Documents.

the Issuing Bank or any Lender, (x) in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement, including its rights under this Section, or (y) in connection with the 

  

 - 71 - 

 
Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in
respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit. 
  
 (b) The Borrower
shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any
and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of

  
 (i) the execution or delivery of this
Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, 
  
 (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds
therefrom (including any refusal by the Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), 
  
 (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous
Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or 
  
 (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation,
investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be
available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. 
  
 (c) To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent, the
Issuing Bank under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable
unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank in its capacity as such. 
  
 (d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or
actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. 
  

 - 72 - 

 (e) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable promptly not later than fifteen days after
written demand therefor. 
  
 SECTION 9.04. Successors and
Assigns. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter
of Credit), except that (i) the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent
shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person
(other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section) and, to
the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 
  
 (b)(i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any
Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to
be unreasonably withheld) of: 
  
 (A) the
Borrower, provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund or, if an Event of Default under clause (a), (b), (h) or (i) of Article VII has occurred and is
continuing, any other assignee; and 
  
 (B) the
Administrative Agent, provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment of any Commitment to an assignee that is a Lender with a Commitment immediately prior to giving effect to such assignment.

  
 (ii) Assignments shall be subject to the
following additional conditions: 
  
 (A) except
in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans of any Class, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender
subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent otherwise consent, provided that no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default under clause (a), (b), (h) or (i) of Article VII has occurred and is continuing; 
  

 - 73 - 

 (B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all
the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, provided that this clause shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect
of one Class of Commitments or Loans; 
  
 (C) the
parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; and 
  
 (D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative
Questionnaire. 
  
 For the purposes of this Section 9.04(b), the
term “Approved Fund” has the following meaning: 
  
 “Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is
administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender. 
  
 (iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section, from and after the effective date
specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the
assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning
Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or
obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.

  
 (iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for
this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and
principal amount of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent,
the Issuing Bank and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be
available for inspection by the Borrower, the Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 
  

 - 74 - 

 (v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an
assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written
consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of
this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. 
  
 (c)(i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a
portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged,
(B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly
with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to
enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to
any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of
Sections 2.15,2.16 and 2.17 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of
Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.18(c) as though it were a Lender. 
  
 (ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.15 or 2.17 than the applicable Lender would have
been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it
were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.17 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.17(e) as though
it were a Lender. 
  
 (d) Any Lender may at any time pledge or
assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall
not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for
such Lender as a party hereto. 
  

 - 75 - 

 SECTION 9.05. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the
Borrower herein and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this
Agreement and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had
notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any
other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall
survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this
Agreement or any provision hereof. 
  
 SECTION 9.06.
Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall
constitute a single contract. This Agreement and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all
previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the
Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their
respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 9.07. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining
provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
  
 SECTION 9.08. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby
authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by
such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any of and all the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall
have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.

  

 - 76 - 

 SECTION 9.09. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. 
  
 (a) This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the
law of the State of New York. 
  
 (b) The Borrower hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New
York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees
that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or
proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender
may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement against the Borrower or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction. 
  
 (c) The Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now
or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest
extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court. 
  
 (d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01. Nothing in this Agreement
will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. 
  
 SECTION 9.10. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A
TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO
REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO
HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION. 
  
 SECTION 9.11. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of
this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement. 
  

 - 77 - 

 SECTION 9.12. Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders
agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed 
  
 (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being
understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), 
  
 (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, 
  
 (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, 
  
 (d) to any other party to this Agreement, 
  
 (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit,
action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder, 
  
 (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or
obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations, 
  
 (g) with the written consent of the Borrower, or 
  
 (h) to the extent such Information 
  

(i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or 
  
 (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, the
Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower. 
  
 For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower relating to the Borrower or its business, other than any such information that is available to the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower; provided that, (x) in the case of information received from the Borrower after the date hereof, such information is clearly
identified at the time of delivery as confidential and (y) notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, “Information” shall not include, and the Administrative Agent and each Lender may disclose to any and all Persons, without
limitation of any kind, any information with respect to the U.S. federal income tax treatment and U.S. federal income tax structure of the transactions contemplated hereby and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that
are provided to the Administrative Agent or such Lender relating to such tax treatment and tax structure. 
  

 - 78 - 

 Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to
have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. 
  
 SECTION 9.13. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall
exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such
Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of
the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with
interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.

 FORM OF OPINION OF CHIEF LEGAL OFFICER OF THE BORROWER 
  
 [Effective Date] 
  
 To the Lenders and the Administrative 
 Agent Referred to Below 
 c/o JPMorgan Chase Bank, as 
 Administrative Agent 
 1111 Fannin, 10th Floor 
 Houston, Texas 77002 
  
 Dear Sirs: 
  
 [I/We] have acted
as counsel for (i) Heidrick & Struggles International, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), in connection with the Credit Agreement dated as of December 22, 2003 (the “Credit Agreement”), among the Borrower, the
banks and other financial institutions identified therein as Lenders, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, as Administrative Agent and (ii) the Subsidiaries listed on Annex A hereto (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”; the Borrower and the Subsidiary
Guarantors being hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Loan Parties” and individually as a “Loan Party”) in connection with the Guaranty dated as of December 22, 2003 among the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Administrative
Agent (the “Subsidiary Guaranty”; the Credit Agreement and the Subsidiary Guaranty being hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Loan Documents” and individually as a “Loan Document”). Terms defined in the Credit
Agreement are used herein with the same meanings. 
  
 [I, or
individuals under my direction,/We] have examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to [my/our] satisfaction, of such documents, corporate records, certificates of public officials and other instruments and have conducted such
other investigations of fact and law as [I/we] have deemed necessary or advisable for purposes of this opinion. 
  
 Upon the basis of the foregoing, [I am/we are] of the opinion that: 
  
 1. Each Loan Party (a) is [a corporation] duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its
organization, (b) has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted and (c) except where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect,
is qualified to do business in, and is in good standing in, every jurisdiction where such qualification is required. 
  
 2. The Transactions are within each Loan Party’s [corporate] powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary [corporate] and, if required,
stockholder action. Each Loan Document has been duly executed and delivered by each Loan Party party thereto. 
  
 3. The Transactions (a) do not require any consent or approval of, registration or filing with, or any other action by, any Governmental Authority, except
such as have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect, (b) will not violate any applicable law or regulation or the charter, by-laws or other organizational documents of any Loan Party or any of 

  

 -1- 

 
its Subsidiaries or any order of any Governmental Authority, (c) will not violate or result in a default under any indenture, agreement or other instrument
binding upon any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries or its assets, or give rise to a right thereunder to require any payment to be made by any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries, and (d) will not result in the creation or imposition of any
Lien on any asset of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries. 
  
 4. There are no actions, suits or proceedings by or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority pending against or, to [my/our] knowledge, threatened against or affecting any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries (a) as to which there

Utility Holding Company Act of 1935.

 FORM OF SUBSIDIARY GUARANTY 
  
 GUARANTY 
  
 THIS GUARANTY (this “Guaranty”) is made as of the 22nd day of December, 2003, by and among each of the undersigned (the “Initial
Guarantors” and along with any additional Subsidiaries of the Borrower which become parties to this Guaranty by executing a supplement hereto in the form attached as Annex I, the “Guarantors”) in favor of the Administrative Agent, for
the ratable benefit of the Holders of Secured Obligations, under the Credit Agreement referred to below. 
  
 WITNESSETH: 
  
 WHEREAS, HEIDRICK & STRUGGLES INTERNATIONAL, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), the institutions from time to time parties hereto as Lenders, and JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, in its capacity as contractual representative
(the “Administrative Agent”) for itself and the other Lenders, have entered into a certain Credit Agreement dated as of December 22, 2003 (as the same may be amended, modified, supplemented and/or restated, and as in effect from time to
time, the “Credit Agreement”), providing, subject to the terms and conditions thereof, for extensions of credit and other financial accommodations to be made by the Lenders to the Borrower; 
  
 WHEREAS, it is a condition precedent to the initial extensions of credit by
the Lenders under the Credit Agreement that each of the Guarantors (constituting all of the Subsidiaries of the Borrower required to execute this Guaranty pursuant to Section 5.09 of the Credit Agreement) execute and deliver this Guaranty, whereby
each of the Guarantors shall guarantee the payment when due of all principal, interest, letter of credit reimbursement obligations, fees, expenses, indemnities and other obligations and amounts (collectively, the “Obligations”) that shall
be at any time payable by the Borrower under the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and any Swap Agreement to which any Lender or affiliate of any Lender shall be a party (each a “Designated Financial Contract”); and 

 
 WHEREAS, in consideration of the direct and indirect financial and other
support that the Borrower has provided, and such direct and indirect financial and other support as the Borrower may in the future provide, to the Guarantors, and in order to induce the Lenders and the Administrative Agent to enter into the Credit
Agreement, each of the Guarantors is willing to guarantee the obligations of the Borrower under the Credit Agreement, any Designated Financial Contract and the other Loan Documents; 
  

 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt
and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
  
 SECTION 1. Definitions. Terms defined in the Credit Agreement and not otherwise defined herein have, as used herein, the respective meanings provided for therein. 
  
 SECTION 2. Representations, Warranties and Covenants. Each of the
Guarantors represents and warrants (which representations and warranties shall be deemed to have been renewed at the time of the making of any Loan or issuance of any Letter of Credit) that: 
  
 (A) It is a corporation, partnership or limited liability
company duly and properly incorporated or organized, as the case may be, validly existing and (to the extent such concept applies to such entity) in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or organization and has all
requisite authority to conduct its business in each jurisdiction in which its business is conducted, except to the extent that the failure to have such authority could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 (B) It (to the extent applicable) has the power and
authority and legal right to execute and deliver this Guaranty and to perform its obligations hereunder. The execution and delivery by each Guarantor of this Guaranty and the performance by each of its obligations hereunder have been duly authorized
by proper proceedings, and this Guaranty constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Guarantor, respectively, enforceable against such Guarantor, respectively, in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by
bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law. 
  
 (C) Neither the execution and delivery by it of this
Guaranty, nor the consummation of the transactions herein contemplated, nor compliance with the provisions hereof will (i) violate any law, rule, regulation, order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree or award binding on it or its articles or
certificate of incorporation, limited liability company or partnership agreement, certificate of partnership, articles or certificate of organization, by-laws, or operating agreement or other management agreement, as the case may be, or the
provisions of any indenture, instrument or agreement to which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or is subject, or by which it, or its property, is bound, or (ii) conflict with, or constitute a default under, or result in, or
require, the creation or imposition of any Lien in, of or on its property pursuant to the terms of, any such indenture, instrument or agreement (other than any Loan Document). No order, consent, adjudication, approval, license, authorization, or
validation of, or filing, recording or registration with, or exemption by, or other action in respect of any governmental or public body or authority, or any subdivision thereof, which has not been obtained by it, is required to be obtained by it in
connection with the execution, delivery and performance by it of, or the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability against it of, this Guaranty. 
  
 In addition to the foregoing, each of the Guarantors covenants that, so long as any Lender has any Commitment outstanding under the Credit
Agreement or any amount payable under the Credit Agreement or any other Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations) shall remain unpaid, it will, and, if necessary, will 

  

 
enable the Borrower to, fully comply with those covenants and agreements of the Borrower applicable to such Guarantor set forth in the Credit Agreement.

  
 SECTION 3. The Guaranty. Each of the Guarantors hereby
unconditionally guarantees, jointly with the other Guarantors and severally, the full and punctual payment when due (whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise) of the Obligations, including, without limitation, (i) the principal of
and interest on each Loan made to the Borrower pursuant to the Credit Agreement, (ii) any obligations of the Borrower to reimburse LC Disbursements (“Reimbursement Obligations”), (iii) all obligations of the Borrower owing to any Lender or
any affiliate of any Lender under any Designated Financial Contract, and (iv) all other amounts payable by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries under the Credit Agreement, any Designated Financial Contract and the other Loan Documents (all of the
foregoing being referred to collectively as the “Guaranteed Obligations”); provided that the liability of any Guarantor hereunder shall not exceed the maximum amount of the claim which could then be recovered from such Guarantor under this
Guaranty without rendering such claim voidable or avoidable under Section 548 of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar statute or common law.
Upon failure by the Borrower or any of its Affiliates, as applicable, to pay punctually any such amount, each of the Guarantors agrees that it shall forthwith on demand pay such amount at the place and in the manner specified in the Credit
Agreement, any Designated Financial Contract or the relevant Loan Document, as the case may be. Each of the Guarantors hereby agrees that this Guaranty is an absolute, irrevocable and unconditional guaranty of payment and is not a guaranty of
collection. 
  
 SECTION 4. Guaranty Unconditional. The
obligations of each of the Guarantors hereunder shall be unconditional and absolute and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, shall not be released, discharged or otherwise affected by: 
  
 (A) any extension, renewal, settlement, indulgence,
compromise, waiver or release of or with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof or any agreement relating thereto, or with respect to any obligation of any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether (in any such
case) by operation of law or otherwise, or any failure or omission to enforce any right, power or remedy with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof or any agreement relating thereto, or with respect to any obligation of any other
guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations; 
  
 (B) any modification or amendment of or supplement to the Credit Agreement, any Designated Financial Contract or any other Loan Document, including, without limitation, any such amendment which may increase the amount of, or the interest
rates applicable to, any of the Obligations guaranteed hereby; 
  
 (C) any release, surrender, compromise, settlement, waiver, subordination or modification, with or without consideration, of any other guaranties with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof, or any
other obligation of any person or entity with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof, or any 

  

 
nonperfection or invalidity of any direct or indirect security for the Guaranteed Obligations; 
  
 (D) any change in the corporate, partnership or other existence, structure or ownership of the Borrower or
any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting the Borrower or any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any of their respective assets or any
resulting release or discharge of any obligation of the Borrower or any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations; 
  
 (E) the existence of any claim, setoff or other rights which the Guarantors may have at any time against the Borrower, any other guarantor
of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the Administrative Agent, any Holder of Secured Obligations or any other Person, whether in connection herewith or in connection with any unrelated transactions, provided that nothing herein shall prevent the
assertion of any such claim by separate suit or compulsory counterclaim; 
  
 (F) the enforceability or validity of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof or the genuineness, enforceability or validity of any agreement relating thereto or with respect to any collateral securing the
Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof, or any other invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against the Borrower or any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, for any reason related to the Credit Agreement, any Designated
Financial Contract, any other Loan Document, or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit the payment by the Borrower or any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations, of any of the Guaranteed Obligations; 

 
 (G) the failure of the Administrative Agent to take any
steps to perfect and maintain any security interest in, or to preserve any rights to, any security or collateral for the Guaranteed Obligations, if any; 
  
 (H) the election by, or on behalf of, any one or more of the Holders of Secured Obligations, in any proceeding instituted under Chapter 11
of Title 11 of the United States Code (11 U.S.C. 101 et seq.) (the “Bankruptcy Code”), of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code; 
  
 (I) any borrowing or grant of a security interest by the Borrower, as debtor-in-possession, under Section
364 of the Bankruptcy Code; 
  
 (J) the
disallowance, under Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code, of all or any portion of the claims of any of the Holders of Secured Obligations or the Administrative Agent for repayment of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations; 
  
 (K) the failure of any other Guarantor to sign or become
party to this Guaranty or any amendment, change, or reaffirmation hereof; or 
  
 (L) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by the Borrower, any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations, the Administrative Agent, any Holder of 

  

 
Secured Obligations or any other Person or any other circumstance whatsoever which might, but for the provisions of this Section 4, constitute a legal or
equitable discharge of any Guarantor’s obligations hereunder. 
  
 SECTION 5. Discharge Only Upon Payment In Full: Reinstatement In Certain Circumstances. Each of the Guarantors’ obligations hereunder shall remain in full force and effect until all Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent
indemnity obligations) shall have been paid in full in cash and the Commitments and all Letters of Credit issued under the Credit Agreement shall have terminated or expired. If at any time any payment of the principal of or interest on any Loan, any
Reimbursement Obligation or any other amount payable by the Borrower or any other party under the Credit Agreement, any Designated Financial Contract or any other Loan Document is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the
insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or otherwise, each of the Guarantors’ obligations hereunder with respect to such payment shall be reinstated as though such payment had been due but not made at such time. The parties
hereto acknowledge and agree that each of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be due and payable in the same currency as such Guaranteed Obligation is denominated but if currency control or exchange regulations are imposed in the country which issues
such currency with the result such currency (the “Original Currency”) no longer exists or the relevant Guarantor is no able to make payment in such Original Currency, then all payments to be made by such Guarantor hereunder in such
currency shall instead be made when due in Dollars in an amount equal to the Dollar Amount (as of the date of payment) of such payment due, it being the intention of the parties hereto that each Guarantor takes all risks of the imposition of any
such currency control or exchange regulations. 
  
 SECTION 6.
General Waivers. Each of the Guarantors irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand or action on delinquency, protest, the benefit of any statutes of limitations and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any notice not
provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against the Borrower, any other guarantor of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other Person. 
  
 SECTION 7. Subordination of Subrogation; Subordination of Intercompany
Indebtedness. 
  
 (A) Subordination of
Subrogation. Until the Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations) have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash, the Guarantors (i) shall have no right of subrogation with respect to such Guaranteed Obligations and (ii) waive
any right to enforce any remedy which the Holders of Secured Obligations now have or may hereafter have against the Borrower, any endorser or any guarantor of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Person, and the Guarantors
waive any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security or collateral given to the Holders of Secured Obligations to secure the payment or performance of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other liability of the
Borrower to the Holders of Secured Obligations. Should any Guarantor have the right, notwithstanding the foregoing, to exercise its subrogation rights, each Guarantor hereby expressly and irrevocably (A) subordinates any and all rights at law or in
equity to subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification or set off that such Guarantor may have to the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations (other 

  

 
than contingent indemnity obligations) and (B) waives any and all defenses available to a surety, guarantor or accommodation co-obligor until the Guaranteed
Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations) are indefeasibly paid in full in cash. Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that this subordination is intended to benefit the Administrative Agent and the other Holders of Secured
Obligations and shall not limit or otherwise affect such Guarantor’s liability hereunder or the enforceability of this Guaranty, and that the Administrative Agent, the other Holders of Secured Obligations and their respective successors and
assigns are intended third party beneficiaries of the waivers and agreements set forth in this Section 7(a). 
  
 (B) Subordination of Intercompany Indebtedness. Each Guarantor agrees that any and all claims of such Guarantor against the Borrower or
any other Guarantor hereunder (each an “Obligor”) with respect to any “Intercompany Indebtedness” (as hereinafter defined), any endorser, obligor or any other guarantor of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, or against
any of its properties shall be subordinate and, during the existence of an Event of Default, subject in right of payment to the prior payment, in full and in cash, of all Guaranteed Obligations. Notwithstanding any right of any Guarantor to ask,
demand, sue for, take or receive any payment from any Obligor, all rights, liens and security interests of such Guarantor, whether now or hereafter arising and howsoever existing, in any assets of any other Obligor shall be and are subordinated to
the rights of the Holders of Secured Obligations and the Administrative Agent in those assets. No Guarantor shall have any right to possession of any such asset or to foreclose upon any such asset, whether by judicial action or otherwise, unless and
until all of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations) shall have been fully paid and satisfied (in cash) and all financing arrangements pursuant to any Loan Document or any Designated Financial Contract have been
terminated. If all or any part of the assets of any Obligor, or the proceeds thereof, are subject to any distribution, division or application to the creditors of such Obligor, whether partial or complete, voluntary or involuntary, and whether by
reason of liquidation, bankruptcy, arrangement, receivership, assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other action or proceeding, or if the business of any such Obligor is dissolved or if substantially all of the assets of any such Obligor
are sold, then, and in any such event (such events being herein referred to as an “Insolvency Event”), any payment or distribution of any kind or character, either in cash, securities or other property, which shall be payable or
deliverable upon or with respect to any indebtedness of any Obligor to any Guarantor (“Intercompany Indebtedness”) shall be paid or delivered directly to the Administrative Agent for application on any of the Guaranteed Obligations, due or
to become due, until such Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations) shall have first been fully paid and satisfied (in cash). Should any payment, distribution, security or instrument or proceeds thereof be received by the
applicable Guarantor upon or with respect to the Intercompany Indebtedness after any Insolvency Event and prior to the satisfaction of all of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations) and the termination of all
financing arrangements pursuant to any Loan Document among the Borrower and the Holders of Secured Obligations, such Guarantor shall receive and hold the same in trust, as trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of Secured Obligations and shall
forthwith deliver the same to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Holders of Secured Obligations, in precisely the form received (except 

  

 
for the endorsement or assignment of the Guarantor where necessary), for application to any of the Guaranteed Obligations, due or not due, and, until so
delivered, the same shall be held in trust by the Guarantor as the property of the Holders of Secured Obligations. If any such Guarantor fails to make any such endorsement or assignment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent or any of
its officers or employees is irrevocably authorized to make the same. Each Guarantor agrees that until the Guaranteed Obligations (other than the contingent indemnity obligations) have been paid in full (in cash) and satisfied and all financing
arrangements pursuant to any Loan Document among the Borrower and the Holders of Secured Obligations have been terminated, no Guarantor will assign or transfer to any Person (other than the Administrative Agent) any claim any such Guarantor has or
may have against any Obligor. 
  
 SECTION 8. Contribution with
Respect to Guaranteed Obligations. 
  
 (A) To
the extent that any Guarantor shall make a payment under this Guaranty (a “Guarantor Payment”) which, taking into account all other Guarantor Payments then previously or concurrently made by any other Guarantor, exceeds the amount which
otherwise would have been paid by or attributable to such Guarantor if each Guarantor had paid the aggregate Guaranteed Obligations satisfied by such Guarantor Payment in the same proportion as such Guarantor’s “Allocable Amount” (as
defined below) (as determined immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment) bore to the aggregate Allocable Amounts of each of the Guarantors as determined immediately prior to the making of such Guarantor Payment, then, following indefeasible
payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations) and termination of the Credit Agreement and the Designated Financial Contracts, such Guarantor shall be entitled to receive contribution and
indemnification payments from, and be reimbursed by, each other Guarantor for the amount of such excess, pro rata based upon their respective Allocable Amounts in effect immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment. 
  
 (B) As of any date of determination, the “Allocable
Amount” of any Guarantor shall be equal to the maximum amount of the claim which could then be recovered from such Guarantor under this Guaranty without rendering such claim voidable or avoidable under Section 548 of Chapter 11 of the
Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar statute or common law. 
  
 (C) This Section 8 is intended only to define the relative rights of the Guarantors, and nothing set forth in this Section 8 is intended
to or shall impair the obligations of the Guarantors, jointly and severally, to pay any amounts as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Guaranty. 
  
 (D) The parties hereto acknowledge that the rights of
contribution and indemnification hereunder shall constitute assets of the Guarantor to which such contribution and indemnification is owing. 
  

 (E) The rights of the indemnifying Guarantors against other Guarantors under this Section
8 shall be exercisable upon the full and indefeasible payment of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations) in cash and the termination of the Credit Agreement and the Designated Financial Contracts. 
  
 SECTION 9. Stay of Acceleration. If acceleration of the time for
payment of any amount payable by the Borrower under the Credit Agreement, any Designated Financial Contract or any other Loan Document is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower, all such amounts otherwise subject to
acceleration under the terms of the Credit Agreement, any Designated Financial Contract or any other Loan Document shall nonetheless be payable by each of the Guarantors hereunder forthwith on demand by the Administrative Agent. 
  
 SECTION 10. Notices. All notices, requests and other communications to
any party hereunder shall be given in the manner prescribed in Article IX of the Credit Agreement with respect to the Administrative Agent at its notice address therein and with respect to any Guarantor at the address set forth below or such other
address or telecopy number as such party may hereafter specify for such purpose by notice to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions of such Article IX.

 SECTION 11. No Waivers. No failure or
delay by the Administrative Agent or any other Holder of Secured Obligations in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies provided in this Guaranty, the Credit Agreement, any Designated Financial Contract and the other Loan Documents shall be cumulative and not exclusive of

Successors and Assigns. This Guaranty is for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the other Holders of Secured Obligations and their respective successors and permitted assigns, provided, that no Guarantor shall have any right to
assign its rights or obligations hereunder without the consent of all of the Lenders, and any such assignment in violation of this Section 12 shall be null and void; and in the event of an assignment of any amounts payable under the Credit
Agreement, any Designated Financial Contract or the other Loan Documents in accordance with the respective terms thereof, the rights hereunder, to the extent applicable to the indebtedness so assigned, may be transferred with such indebtedness. This
Guaranty shall be binding upon each of the Guarantors and their respective successors and assigns.

 (A) CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. EACH GUARANTOR
HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY UNITED STATES FEDERAL OR NEW YORK STATE COURT SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS GUARANTY AND EACH GUARANTOR HEREBY

IN SUCH A COURT OR THAT SUCH COURT IS AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE ISSUING BANK OR ANY LENDER TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST ANY GUARANTOR IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. ANY
JUDICIAL PROCEEDING BY ANY GUARANTOR AGAINST THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE ISSUING BANK OR ANY LENDER OR ANY AFFILIATE OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE ISSUING BANK OR ANY LENDER INVOLVING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ANY MATTER IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT
OF, RELATED TO, OR CONNECTED WITH THIS GUARANTY OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL BE BROUGHT ONLY IN A COURT IN NEW YORK COUNTY OR THE CITY IN WHICH THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, LENDER OR AFFILIATE, AS THE CASE MAY BE, IS
LOCATED. 
  
 (B) WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH
GUARANTOR (AND, BY ACCEPTING THE BENEFITS HEREOF, EACH HOLDER OF SECURED OBLIGATIONS) HEREBY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING INVOLVING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ANY MATTER (WHETHER SOUNDING IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) IN ANY WAY
ARISING OUT OF, RELATED TO, OR CONNECTED WITH THIS GUARANTY OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED THEREUNDER. 
  
 SECTION 16. No Strict Construction. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Guaranty. In the event an
ambiguity or question of 

  

 
intent or interpretation arises, this Guaranty shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof shall
arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Guaranty. 
  
 SECTION 17. Taxes, Expenses of Enforcement, etc. 
  
 (A) Taxes. 
  
 (i) All payments by any Guarantor to or for the account of any Lender, the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent or any other Holder of
Secured Obligations hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all Taxes. If any Guarantor shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to any Lender, the Issuing Bank,
the Administrative Agent or any other Holder of Secured Obligations, (a) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section
17(A)) such Lender, the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent or any other Holder of Secured Obligations (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (b) such Guarantor shall make
such deductions, (c) such Guarantor shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant authority in accordance with applicable law and (d) such Guarantor shall furnish to the Administrative Agent the original copy of a receipt evidencing payment
thereof within thirty (30) days after such payment is made. 
  
 (ii) In addition, the Guarantors hereby agree to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes and any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made hereunder or
from the execution or delivery of, or otherwise with respect to, this Guaranty or any promissory note (“Other Taxes”). 
  
 (iii) The Guarantors hereby agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, each Lender and any other Holder of Secured
Obligations for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed on amounts payable under this Section 17(A)) paid by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, such Lender or such other
Holder of Secured Obligations and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. Payments due under this indemnification shall be made within thirty (30) days of the date the Administrative
Agent, the Issuing Bank, such Lender or such other Holder of Secured Obligations makes demand therefor. 
  
 (iv) By accepting the benefits hereof, each Foreign Lender agrees that it will comply with Section 2.17(e) of the Credit Agreement.

  
 (B) Expenses of Enforcement, Etc. Subject to
the terms of the Credit Agreement, after the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement, the Lenders shall have the right at any time to direct the Administrative Agent to commence enforcement proceedings with respect to the
Guaranteed Obligations. The Guarantors agree to reimburse the Administrative Agent and the other Holders of Secured Obligations for any reasonable costs and out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and 

  

 
time charges of attorneys for the Administrative Agent and the other Holders of Secured Obligations, which attorneys may be employees of the Administrative
Agent or the other Holders of Secured Obligations) paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent or any other Holders of Obligation in connection with the collection and enforcement of amounts due under the Loan Documents, including without
limitation this Guaranty. The Administrative Agent agrees to promptly distribute payments received from any of the Guarantors hereunder to the other Holders of Secured Obligations on a pro rata basis for application in accordance with the terms of
the Credit Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 18. Setoff. At any time
after all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations have become due and payable (by acceleration or otherwise), each Holder of Secured Obligations (including the Administrative Agent) may, without notice to any Guarantor and regardless of the
acceptance of any security or collateral for the payment hereof, appropriate and apply in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement toward the payment of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations (i) any indebtedness due or to become due
from such Holder of Secured Obligations or the Administrative Agent to any Guarantor, and (ii) any moneys, credits or other property belonging to any Guarantor, at any time held by or coming into the possession of such Holder of Secured Obligations
(including the Administrative Agent) or any of their respective affiliates. 
  
 SECTION 19. German Guarantors. Each of the Lenders, by its acceptance of the benefits hereof, agrees to release (or to instruct the Administrative Agent to release) proceeds from the enforcement of this
Guaranty if and to the extent that the application of proceeds towards the Obligations would otherwise lead to the situation that, if a Guarantor is organized as a GmbH & Co. KG. (a “German Guarantor”) under the laws of the Federal
Republic of Germany, its general partner does not have sufficient assets to maintain its stated share capital (Stammkapital) provided that for the purposes of the calculation of the amount to be released (if any) the following balance sheet items
shall be adjusted as follows: 
  
 (A) the amount
of any increase of stated share capital after the date hereof that has been effected without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (acting on behalf of the Lenders) shall be deducted from the stated share capital; and 
  
 (B) loans provided to the such German Guarantor by the
Borrower or any of its subsidiaries as far as such loans are subordinated or qualified under § 32a GmbHG (German Limited Liability Companies Act) shall be disregarded. 
  
 SECTION 20. Financial Information. Each Guarantor hereby assumes responsibility for keeping itself informed of the
financial condition of the Borrower and any and all endorsers and/or other Guarantors of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part
thereof, that diligent inquiry would reveal, and each Guarantor hereby agrees that none of the Holders of Secured Obligations (including the Administrative Agent) shall have any duty to advise such Guarantor of information known to any of them
regarding such condition or any such circumstances. In the event any Holder of Secured Obligations (including the Administrative Agent), in its sole discretion, undertakes at any time or from time to time to provide any such information to a
Guarantor, such Holder of Secured Obligations (including the 

  

 
Administrative Agent) shall be under no obligation (i) to undertake any investigation not a part of its regular business routine, (ii) to disclose any
information which such Holder of Secured Obligations (including the Administrative Agent), pursuant to accepted or reasonable commercial finance or banking practices, wishes to maintain confidential or (iii) to make any other or future disclosures
of such information or any other information to such Guarantor. 
  
 SECTION 21. Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Guaranty shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Guaranty shall be prohibited by or
invalid under such law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Guaranty. 
  
 SECTION 22. Merger. This Guaranty represents the final agreement of
each of the Guarantors with respect to the matters contained herein and may not be contradicted by evidence of prior or contemporaneous agreements, or subsequent oral agreements, between the Guarantor and any Holder of Secured Obligations (including
the Administrative Agent). 
  
 SECTION 23. Headings.
Section headings in this Guaranty are for convenience of reference only and shall not govern the interpretation of any provision of this Guaranty. 
  
 SECTION 24. Judgment Currency. If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due from any Guarantor
hereunder in the currency expressed to be payable herein (the “specified currency”) into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at
which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the specified currency with such other currency at the Administrative Agent’s main New York City office on the Business Day preceding that on which
final, non-appealable judgment is given. The obligations of each Guarantor in respect of any sum due hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than the specified currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business
Day following receipt by any Holder of Secured Obligations (including the Administrative Agent), as the case may be, of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency such Holder of Secured Obligations (including the Administrative Agent), as
the case may be, may in accordance with normal, reasonable banking procedures purchase the specified currency with such other currency. If the amount of the specified currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Holder of
Secured Obligations (including the Administrative Agent), as the case may be, in the specified currency, each Guarantor agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to
indemnify such Holder of Secured Obligations (including the Administrative Agent), as the case may be, against such loss, and if the amount of the specified currency so purchased exceeds (a) the sum originally due to any Holder of Secured
Obligations (including the Administrative Agent), as the case may be, in the specified currency and (b) amounts shared with other Holders of Secured Obligations as a result of allocations of such excess as a disproportionate payment to such other
Holder of Secured Obligations under Section 2.18 of the Credit Agreement, such Holder of Secured Obligations (including the Administrative Agent), as the case may be, agrees, by accepting the benefits hereof, to remit such excess to such Guarantor.

 FORM OF COMMITMENT AND ACCEPTANCE 
  
 Dated [                    ] 
  
 Reference is made to the Credit Agreement dated as of December 22, 2003 (as
amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”) among Heidrick & Struggles International, Inc. (the “Borrower”), the financial institutions party thereto (the

 Pursuant to Section 2.23 of the Credit Agreement, the Borrower has requested
an increase in the Aggregate Commitment from $                     to
$                    . Such increase in the Aggregate Commitment is to become effective on the date (the “Effective Date”) which is

 [2. The Accepting Bank hereby (i) confirms that it has
received a copy of the Credit Agreement, together with copies of the financial statements and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Commitment and Acceptance
Agreement; (ii) agrees that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or
not taking action under the Credit Agreement; (iii) appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as contractual representative on its behalf and to exercise such powers under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents
as are delegated to the Agent by the terms thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (iv) agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of the Credit Agreement
are required to be performed by it as a Lender] 
  
 3. The
Borrower hereby represents and warrants that as of the date hereof and as of the Effective Date, (a) all representations and warranties shall be true and 

  

 
correct in all material respects as though made on such date and (b) no event shall have occurred and then be continuing which constitutes a Default or an
Event of Default. 
  
 4. THIS COMMITMENT AND ACCEPTANCE
AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
  
 5. This Commitment and Acceptance Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which taken
together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
