or any other Person arising in connection with the Receivables, the related Contracts and/or any other Related Security with respect thereto or any other obligations of the Seller. In view of the intention of the parties hereto that each sale or
contribution of Receivables made hereunder shall constitute a sale of such Receivables rather than loans secured thereby, the Seller agrees that it will, on or prior to the date hereof and in accordance with Section 5.01(e)(ii), cause all
Receivable reports relating to the Receivables to bear a legend acceptable to the Buyer and the Administrative Agent evidencing that the Buyer has purchased or acquired such Receivables as provided in this Agreement and note in its financial
statements that its Receivables have been sold to the Buyer. Upon the request of the Buyer or the Administrative Agent, the Seller will execute and file such financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto or

  
 9 

 
assignments thereof, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or appropriate to perfect and maintain the perfection of the Buyer’s ownership interest in the Receivables,
and the Related Security and Collections with respect thereto, or as the Buyer or the Administrative Agent may reasonably request. 

SECTION 2.03. Purchase Price. (a) The Purchase Price for each Receivable originated or acquired by the Seller on or after the
date of this Agreement shall be due and payable in full by the Buyer to the Seller or its designee on the related origination or acquisition date (except that the Buyer may offset against any such Purchase Price any amounts owed by the Seller to the
Buyer hereunder which have become due but remain unpaid). The Purchase Price for each Receivable shall be paid to the Seller in the manner provided in the following paragraphs (b), (c), (d) and (e). In connection with the payment of the
Purchase Price for any Receivable purchased hereunder, the Seller shall deliver to the Buyer such approvals, opinions, information, reports or documents as the Buyer may reasonably request. 

(b) On each Settlement Date, the Buyer shall pay the Purchase Price for each Receivable originated or acquired by the Seller on or after the
date of this Agreement in accordance with Section 2.03(d) and (e) and in the following manner: 
 (i) first,
by delivery of immediately available funds, to the extent of funds available to the Buyer from (A) a borrowing under the Credit Agreement, (B) Collections with respect to Receivables previously sold to the Buyer which are available to the
Buyer under the terms of the Credit Agreement, or (C) other cash on hand; 
 (ii) second, by delivery of the
proceeds of a subordinated revolving loan from the Seller to the Buyer (a “Subordinated Loan”); provided that the making of any such Subordinated Loan shall be subject to the provisions set forth in below; and 

(iii) third, unless the Amortization Date has occurred, by accepting a contribution to its capital pursuant to the
Subscription Agreement in an amount equal to the remaining unpaid balance of such Purchase Price. 
 (c) The amount that can be borrowed by
the Buyer pursuant to clause (ii) of paragraph (b) above is limited to the amount that could be borrowed without causing the Net Worth to be less than the Required Capital Amount. The Seller is hereby authorized by the Buyer to endorse on
the schedule attached to the Subordinated Note an appropriate notation evidencing the date and amount of each advance thereunder, as well as the date of each payment with respect thereto; provided that any failure by the Seller to make any
such notation shall not affect any obligation of the Buyer thereunder. Subject to the limitations set forth in the second preceding sentence, the Seller irrevocably agrees to advance each Subordinated Loan requested by the Buyer on or prior to the
Facility Termination Date. The Subordinated Loans shall be evidenced by, and shall be payable in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Subordinated Note and shall be payable solely from funds which the Buyer is not required by the terms of
the Credit Agreement to set aside for the benefit of, or otherwise pay over to, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent, or any other Person. The Seller shall provide upon request to the Buyer or the Administrative Agent a report with respect to any
Settlement Date setting forth the portion, if any, of the related Purchase Price paid pursuant to a Subordinated Loan and the portion, if any, of the related Purchase Price treated as a contribution to capital. 

(d) On each day prior to the Amortization Date (unless the Buyer or the Administrative Agent shall otherwise direct), the Buyer may permit the
Seller to retain all or a specified portion of the Collections received with respect to the Receivables purchased or acquired by the Buyer hereunder, it being understood that any such Collections in the possession of the Seller or the Buyer must be
applied in accordance with the Credit Agreement and are made available to the Buyer at the discretion of the 

  
 10 

 
Administrative Agent. Any such Collections so retained by the Seller (“Applied Collections”) shall, on and as of the date of receipt thereof, (i) first, be deemed to
have been applied towards the Purchase Price of any Receivables originated or acquired by the Seller and sold to the Buyer on such date, to the extent of any such Purchase Price, (ii) second, to the extent of any remaining balance, be
deemed to have been applied toward the Purchase Price of any other Receivables originated or acquired by the Seller during the preceding Calculation Period and in respect of which the Purchase Price shall not theretofore have been paid, to the
extent of any such Purchase Price, and (iii) third, to the extent of any remaining balance, be held in trust by the Seller for the benefit of the Buyer until the earlier to occur of (A) application toward the Purchase Price for any
Purchase occurring on any later date and (B) the next following Settlement Date, in which case such amount shall be remitted to the Buyer. 

(e) Although the Purchase Price for each Receivable originated or acquired by the Seller on or after the date of this Agreement shall be due
and payable in full by the Buyer to the Seller on the related origination or acquisition date, and although payment of each Purchase Price shall be made from Applied Collections, to the extent available, as provided in paragraph (d) of this
Section, final settlement of each Purchase Price between the Buyer and the Seller shall be effected on a monthly basis on each Settlement Date with respect to all Receivables originated or acquired by the Seller during the second preceding
Calculation Period. On each Settlement Date, the Buyer and the Seller shall cause a reconciliation to be made in respect of all Purchases made during the second preceding Calculation Period. To the extent that the aggregate amount of Applied
Collections retained by the Seller during such Calculation Period was less than the aggregate Purchase Price in respect of all Purchases made by the Buyer during such Calculation Period, the Buyer shall pay the balance due in respect of such
aggregate Purchase Price in the manner described in paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent that the aggregate amount of Applied Collections retained by the Seller during such Calculation Period was greater than the aggregate Purchase
Price in respect of all Purchases made by the Buyer during such Calculation Period, the Seller shall turn over such excess to the Buyer either by remitting such excess in immediately available funds to the Buyer or by reducing the outstanding
balance of the Subordinated Loans in an amount equal to such excess, or a combination of both. Although final settlement of each Purchase Price shall be effected on each Settlement Date, any increase or decrease in the amount owing under the
Subordinated Note made pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section and any contribution of capital by the Seller to the Buyer made pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section shall be deemed to have occurred and shall be effective as of the
last Business Day of the second preceding Calculation Period. 
 (f) At all times prior to the Amortization Date, notwithstanding any delay
in the making of any payment of the Purchase Price in respect of any Purchase, all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in, to and under each Receivable shall be sold or contributed, as applicable, to the Buyer effective immediately and
automatically upon the origination or acquisition of such Receivable by the Seller, without any further action of any type or kind being required on the part of any Person. The monthly settlement and reconciliation contemplated in this Section has
been devised solely for the administrative convenience of the parties hereto, and the Buyer and the Seller may agree at any time to effect settlement and reconciliation on a more (but not less) frequent basis. 

SECTION 2.04. Purchase Price Credit Adjustments. If on any date: 

(i) the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable is reduced as a result of any defective or rejected goods or services, any
discount or any adjustment or otherwise by the Seller (other than cash Collections on account of such Receivable or as a result of the insolvency, bankruptcy or lack of creditworthiness of the related Obligor or the financial inability of the
related Obligor to pay); 

  
 11 

 (ii) the Outstanding Balance of any Receivable is reduced or canceled as a result
of a setoff in respect of any claim by any Person (whether such claim arises out of the same or a related transaction or an unrelated transaction); or 

(iii) any of the representations or warranties set forth in paragraphs (k), (s), and (t) of Section 3.01 are
not true when made or deemed made with respect to any Receivable; 
 then, in such event, the Buyer shall be entitled to a credit (each, a “Purchase
Price Credit”), in an amount equal to the Outstanding Balance of such Receivable as of such date, against the Purchase Price otherwise payable hereunder for Receivables originated or acquired by the Seller on such date. If such Purchase
Price Credit exceeds the aggregate Original Balance of the Receivables originated or acquired by the Seller on such date, then the Seller shall pay the remaining amount of such Purchase Price Credit in cash within two (2) Business Days
thereafter; provided that if the Amortization Date has not occurred, the Seller may deduct the remaining amount of such Purchase Price Credit from any indebtedness owed to it under the Subordinated Note on the next Settlement Date. 

SECTION 2.05. Payments and Computations. All amounts to be paid or deposited by the Buyer hereunder shall be paid or deposited in
accordance with the terms hereof on the date when due in immediately available funds to the account of the Seller designated from time to time by the Seller or as otherwise directed by the Seller. If any payment owed by any Person hereunder becomes
due on a day that is not a Business Day, then such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day. If any Person fails to pay any amount hereunder when due, then such Person agrees to pay, on demand, interest on such amount at a rate per
annum equal to the then applicable Default Rate until such amount is paid in full; provided that the Default Rate shall not at any time exceed the maximum rate permitted by applicable law. All computations of interest payable hereunder shall
be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) elapsed. 

SECTION 2.06. Transfer of Records. (a) The Seller hereby sells, transfers, assigns and otherwise conveys to the Buyer all of
the Seller’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Records relating to all Receivables sold or contributed hereunder, without the need for any further documentation in connection with any related Purchase. In connection with such
conveyance, the Seller hereby grants to each of the Buyer, the Administrative Agent and the Servicer an irrevocable, non-exclusive license to use, without royalty or payment of any kind, all software used by the Seller to account for the Receivables
to the extent necessary to administer the Receivables, whether such software is owned by the Seller or is owned by others and used by the Seller under license agreements with respect thereto; provided that should the consent of any
third-party licensor be required in connection with the grant of any such license, the Seller hereby agrees that, upon the request of the Buyer or the Administrative Agent, the Seller will use its reasonable efforts to obtain such consent. The
license granted hereby shall be irrevocable, and shall terminate on the date this Agreement terminates in accordance with its terms. 
 (b)
The Seller shall (i) from time to time, take such action as may be requested by the Buyer or the Administrative Agent to ensure that the Buyer has an enforceable ownership interest in the Records relating to the Receivables sold or contributed
to the Buyer and that the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, has a valid and perfected first priority security interest in such Records and (ii) use its reasonable efforts to ensure that each of the Buyer, the Administrative Agent
and the Servicer has an enforceable right (whether by license, sublicense or otherwise) to use all of the computer software used by the Seller to account for such Receivables and/or to recreate such Records. 

SECTION 2.07. Characterization. If, notwithstanding the intention of the parties expressed in Section 2.02(b), any
sale or contribution of Receivables hereunder shall be characterized as a secured loan and not as a sale or such sale shall for any reason be ineffective or unenforceable (any of the foregoing 

  
 12 

 
being a “Recharacterization”), then this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute a security agreement under the UCC and other applicable law. For this purpose and without being
in derogation of the parties’ intention that the sale or contribution of Receivables hereunder shall constitute a true sale thereof, the Seller hereby grants to the Buyer a duly perfected security interest in all of the Seller’s right,
title and interest in, to and under all Receivables now existing or hereafter arising, all Related Security and Collections with respect thereto, all Records with respect thereto, each Lock-Box and Collection Account, each Receivables Transfer
Agreement, all other rights and payments relating to such Receivables and all proceeds of the foregoing, which security interest shall be prior to all other Liens. In the event of a Recharacterization, and after the occurrence of an Amortization
Event, (i) the Buyer or the Administrative Agent may declare the related secured loan to be due and payable, whereupon the unpaid principal amount of such secured loan, together with accrued interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the
then applicable Default Rate, and all fees and other obligations of the Seller accrued hereunder, shall become due and payable immediately, and (ii) the Buyer shall have, in addition to the rights and remedies which it may have under this
Agreement, all other rights and remedies provided to a secured creditor after default under the UCC and other applicable law, which rights and remedies shall be cumulative. In the event of a Recharacterization, each of the Seller and the Buyer
represents and warrants as to itself that each remittance of Collections by the Seller to the Buyer hereunder will have been (A) in payment of a debt incurred by the Seller in the ordinary course of business or financial affairs of the Seller
and the Buyer and (B) made in the ordinary course of business or financial affairs of the Seller and the Buyer. 
 SECTION 2.08.
Assumption and Issuance of Letters of Credit. (a) The Seller may, from time to time prior to the Facility Termination Date, deliver a Letter of Credit Request to the Buyer requesting that the Buyer obtain and deliver the letter of credit
described in such Letter of Credit Request or renew, extend, increase, decrease or otherwise modify an outstanding Letter of Credit. If the Seller delivers a Letter of Credit Request to the Buyer and pays to the Buyer the applicable LC Commission on
or before the related issuance or modification date (and such issuance or modification date is prior to the Facility Termination Date), subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Buyer will endeavor to obtain and deliver the letter of credit
described in such Letter of Credit Request or modify the related Letter of Credit in accordance with such Letter of Credit Request, provided that the outstanding principal balance of the Subordinated Loans owing to the Seller at the time of
such issuance or modification must equal or exceed the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit (after giving effect to such issuance or modification). The Seller may, subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement, request that
the Buyer arrange for the extension of the expiration date of any Letter of Credit, but the duration of such extension may not exceed one year and must otherwise comply with the Credit Agreement. 

(b) The Seller hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to reimburse the Buyer on demand for (i) all transactional fees and expenses
of the related Issuing Bank payable by the Buyer pursuant to the related Letter of Credit application in connection with the issuance or modification of any Letter of Credit and (ii) if any Letter of Credit is drawn, all related LC
Disbursements, together with interest on the unreimbursed amount until paid at a rate per annum equal to the rate then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans under and as defined in the Credit Agreement (including any increase in such rate which may
apply pursuant to Section 2.13(d) of the Credit Agreement); provided that the Buyer may only demand reimbursement pursuant to this Section if the Lenders are not obligated to make Loans under the Credit Agreement on the date on
which payment of such transactional fees and expenses or reimbursement of such LC Disbursements is due (or to the extent that the Buyer would not otherwise be able to offset or deduct such amounts pursuant to the following sentence). Without in any
way limiting the Buyer’s rights to reimbursement hereunder, the Buyer may, on any date on which payment of such transactional fees and expenses or reimbursement of such LC Disbursements is due (even if the Buyer would otherwise be permitted to
demand reimbursement pursuant to this Section on such date), offset the amounts described in the preceding sentence against the outstanding principal balance owing by the Buyer to the Seller on such date under the Subordinated Note or deduct such
amounts from the Purchase 

  
 13 

 
Price otherwise payable by the Buyer to the Seller on such date pursuant to this Agreement. The Buyer shall promptly notify the Seller of any such offset or deduction. If any amount offset or
deducted by the Buyer pursuant to this Section is subsequently reimbursed by the Seller, such offset or deduction shall automatically be reversed. 

(c) The Seller’s obligation to reimburse transactional fees and expenses and LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (b) of this
Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability
of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein or herein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being
untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) any 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 (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 Seller’s obligations
thereunder. 
 (d) If the Seller delivers a Letter of Credit Request to the Buyer pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section requesting
that the Buyer arrange for the extension of the expiration date of any Letter of Credit, the Buyer shall endeavor to obtain and deliver such extension not later than the fifth (5th) Business Day prior to the date on which such Letter of Credit
is scheduled to expire. If the related Issuing Bank agrees to such extension in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Seller shall pay the Buyer the applicable LC Commission for the extended period. Any such payment may be made
in cash, through an offset against the outstanding principal balance owing by the Buyer to the Seller under the Subordinated Note or through a reduction in the Purchase Price otherwise payable by the Buyer to the Seller pursuant to this Agreement.

 (e) At any time there is more than one Lender under the Credit Agreement and that Lender is not also the Issuing Bank, while any Letter
of Credit remains outstanding, the Seller shall pay to the Buyer in arrears on each Settlement Date the Seller’s ratable share of a fully-earned and non-refundable fee equal to any fronting fee charged by the Issuing Bank with respect to such
Letter of Credit.

have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate actions and no other corporate proceedings on the part of the Seller are necessary to consummate such transactions. Each Transaction Document has been duly executed and delivered by the Seller and
constitutes a legal, valid, and binding obligation of the Seller, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject
to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

(d) Litigation Matters. There are no actions, suits or proceedings by or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority pending
against or, to the knowledge of the Seller, threatened in writing against or affecting the Seller (i) as to which there is a reasonable possibility of an adverse determination and that, if adversely determined, could reasonably be expected,

or omit to state a material fact or any fact necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading. 

  
 15 

 (h) Performance. The Seller is not in default in the performance, observance or
fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants or conditions contained in any Contractual Obligation applicable to it the effect of which could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, and no condition exists which, with the
giving of notice or the lapse of time or both, would constitute a default under any such Contractual Obligation, except where the consequences, direct or indirect, of such default or defaults, if any, have not resulted in and could not reasonably be
expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (i) Solvency. The Seller is Solvent after giving effect to the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. 
 (j) Use of Proceeds. No proceeds of any purchase of a
Receivable hereunder will be used, whether directly or indirectly, for any purpose that entails a violation of Regulation T, U or X. 
 (k)
Good Title. Immediately prior to each purchase of a Receivable hereunder, the Seller shall be the legal and beneficial owner of such Receivable, and all Related Security with respect thereto, free and clear of any Lien, except as created or
otherwise permitted by the Transaction Documents. 
 (l) Perfection. This Agreement, together with the filing of the financing
statements contemplated hereby, is effective to transfer to the Buyer (and the Buyer shall acquire from the Seller) legal and equitable title to, with the right to sell and encumber, all Receivables existing on or arising after the date of this
Agreement, in each case together with all Related Security and Collections with respect thereto, free and clear of any Lien, except as created by the Transactions Documents. All financing statements or other similar instruments or documents

Seller keeps all of its Records are located at the address(es) listed on Schedule E or such other locations of which the Buyer has been notified in accordance with Section 5.02(e) in jurisdictions where all action required by
Section 5.02(e) has been taken and completed. The Seller’s state of incorporation and organization identification number (if any) are correctly set forth on Schedule E. In the past five (5) years, the Seller has not used
any corporate name, trade name or assumed name other than the name in which it has executed this Agreement. 
 (n) Collections. The
conditions and requirements set forth in Section 5.01(m) have at all times been satisfied and duly performed. The names and addresses of all Collection Banks, together with the account numbers of the Collection Accounts of the Seller at
each Collection Bank and the post office box number of each Lock-Box, are listed on Schedule B.

and clear of any Lien. All such capital stock is validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, and there are no options, warrants or other rights to acquire any securities of the Buyer. 

(q) Compliance with Credit and Collection Policy. The Seller has complied in all material respects with the applicable Credit and
Collection Policy with regard to each Receivable and the related Contract and has not made any material change to any Credit and Collection Policy except such material change as to which the Administrative Agent has been notified in accordance with
Section 5.01(b)(vi). 

  
 16 

 (r) Payments to Seller. With respect to each Receivable transferred to the Buyer
hereunder, the Purchase Price received by the Seller constitutes reasonably equivalent value in consideration therefor and such transfer was not made for or on account of an antecedent debt. No transfer by the Seller of any Receivable hereunder is
or may be voidable under any section of the Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978 (11 U.S.C. §§ 101 et seq.), as amended. 
 (s)
Enforceability of Contracts. Each Contract is effective to create, and has created, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the related Obligor to pay the Outstanding Balance of the related Receivable and any accrued interest thereon,
enforceable against such Obligor in accordance with its terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar laws relating to or limiting creditors’ rights generally and by
general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law). 
 (t) Eligible
Receivables. Each Receivable included as an Eligible Receivable on the date of its purchase under the 2011 Receivables Sale Agreement or this Agreement was an Eligible Receivable on such purchase date, and, as of the date of each Borrowing Base
Report, each Receivable included as an Eligible Receivable on such Borrowing Base Report was an Eligible Receivable.

statements in conformity with GAAP, and, if required by the terms of the Credit Agreement, in conformity with Agreement Accounting Principles, and each of the financial statements described in Section 5.01(a) shall be prepared from such system
and records) in which full, true and correct entries are made of all dealings and transactions in relation to its business and activities and (ii) permit any representatives designated by the Buyer or the Administrative Agent (including
employees of the Buyer or the Administrative Agent or any consultants, accountants, lawyers, agents and appraisers retained by the Buyer or the Administrative Agent), upon reasonable prior notice, to visit and inspect its properties, to conduct at
such Person’s premises field examinations of such Person’s assets, liabilities, books and records, including examining and making extracts from its books and records, and to discuss its affairs, finances and condition with its officers and
independent accountants, all at such reasonable times and as often as reasonably requested. Only one (1) field examination per year will be conducted at the Seller’s sole cost and expense; provided that there shall be no limitation
on the number or frequency of field examinations at the Seller’s sole cost and expense if an Amortization Event shall have occurred and be continuing. 

(e) Compliance with Laws and Material Contractual Obligations. The Seller will and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to
(i) comply with each Requirement of Law applicable to it or its property and (ii) perform in all material respects its obligations under material agreements to which it is a party, except, in each case, where the failure to do so,
individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (f) Insurance. The
Seller will maintain in effect, or cause to be maintained in effect, at the Seller’s own expense, such casualty and liability insurance as the Seller deems appropriate in its good faith business judgment. The Seller will pay, or cause to be

Buyer, the Administrative Agent or any Lender in certificated form upon the Buyer’s, the Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s request. The foregoing requirements shall not be construed to negate, reduce or modify, and are in
addition to, the Seller’s obligations hereunder. 
 (g) Taxes. The Seller will file all tax returns and reports required by law
to be filed by it and promptly pay all taxes and governmental charges at any time owing, except any such taxes which are not yet delinquent or are being diligently contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which adequate reserves in
accordance with GAAP shall have been set aside on its books, unless the failure to make any such payment (i) shall give rise to an immediate right to foreclosure on a Lien securing such amounts or (ii) could reasonably be expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (h) Keeping and Marking of Books and Records. 

(i) The Seller will, or will cause each other Originator to, maintain and implement administrative and operating procedures
(including an ability to recreate records evidencing Receivables in the event of the destruction of the originals thereof), and keep and maintain all documents, books, records and other information reasonably necessary or advisable for the
collection of all Receivables (including records adequate to permit the identification of each new Receivable and all Collections of and adjustments to each existing Receivable within two (2) Business Days of the receipt of such Collection or
adjustment in respect of such Receivable). The Seller will and will require each other Originator to give the Buyer and the Administrative Agent notice of any material change in the administrative and operating procedures referred to in the previous
sentence. 

  
 19 

 (ii) The Seller will and will cause each other Originator to (A) on or prior

security interest in the Receivables under the Credit Agreement and (B) upon the request of the Buyer or the Administrative Agent following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Amortization Event, deliver to the Administrative Agent

Compliance with Contracts and Credit and Collection Policy. The Seller will and will cause each other Originator to timely and fully (i) perform and comply in all material respects with all provisions, covenants and other promises
required to be observed by it under the Contracts related to the Receivables and (ii) comply in all material respects with the applicable Credit and Collection Policy in regard to each Receivable and the related Contract. 

(j) Performance and Enforcement of Receivables Transfer Agreements. The Seller will perform each of its obligations and undertakings
under and pursuant to each Receivables Transfer Agreement, will purchase Receivables thereunder in strict compliance with the terms thereof and will vigorously enforce its rights and remedies thereunder. The Seller will cause each other Originator
to perform each of its obligations and undertakings under and pursuant to the related Receivables Transfer Agreement. The Seller will take all actions to perfect and enforce its rights and interests (and the rights and interests of the Buyer as
assignee of the Seller) under each Receivables Transfer Agreement as the Buyer or the Administrative Agent may from time to time reasonably request, including making claims to which it may be entitled under any indemnity, reimbursement or similar
provision contained in such Transfer Agreement. The Seller will not, and will not permit any other Originator to, amend or otherwise modify any Receivables Transfer Agreement without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. 

(k) Ownership of Receivables. The Seller will and will cause each other Originator to take all necessary action to (i) establish
and maintain, irrevocably in the Buyer, legal and equitable title to the Receivables, and all Related Security and Collections with respect thereto, in each case free and clear of any Lien other than Liens in favor of the Administrative Agent for
the benefit of the Lenders and Liens otherwise permitted by Section 6.18 of the Credit Agreement (including the filing of all financing statements or other similar instruments or documents necessary under the UCC (or any comparable law)
of all appropriate jurisdictions to perfect the Buyer’s interest in the Receivables, and all Related Security and Collections with respect thereto, and such other action to perfect, protect or more fully evidence the interest of the Buyer and
the Administrative Agent and the Lenders as the Buyer or the Administrative Agent may reasonably request). 
 (l) Lenders’
Reliance. The Seller acknowledges that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders are entering into the transactions contemplated by the Credit Agreement in reliance upon the Buyer’s identity as a legal entity that is separate from the Seller
and any Affiliates thereof. The Seller shall take all reasonable steps, including all steps that the Buyer or the Administrative Agent may from time to time reasonably request to maintain the Buyer’s identity as a separate legal entity and to
make it manifest to third parties that the Buyer is an entity with assets and liabilities distinct from those of the Seller and any Affiliates of the Seller and not just a division of the Seller. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and
in addition to the other covenants set forth herein, the Seller (i) will not hold itself out to third parties as liable for the debts of the Buyer nor purport to own the Receivables and other assets

  
 20 

 
acquired by the Buyer from the Seller, (ii) will take all other actions necessary on its part to ensure that the Buyer is at all times in compliance with the covenants set forth in
Section 6.19 of the Credit Agreement and (iii) will cause all tax liabilities arising in connection with the transactions contemplated herein or otherwise to be allocated between the Seller and the Buyer on an arm’s-length basis and in a manner consistent with the procedures set forth in U.S. Treasury Regulations §§1.1502-33(d) and 1.1552-1. 

(m) Collections. The Seller will cause (a) all Obligors to pay all Collections directly to a Lock-Box or Collection Account
(or, to the extent permitted by the Security Agreement, a Company Owned Post Office Box), (b) all proceeds from all Lock-Boxes to be directly deposited by a Collection Bank into a Collection Account and (c) each Lock-Box and Collection
Account to be subject at all times to a Collection Account Agreement that is in full force and effect; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, no Collection Account Agreement shall be required with respect to any Lock-Box or Collection
Account listed on Schedule C until the date set forth for such Lock-Box or Collection Account on Schedule C. The Seller will cause (i) all proceeds from Company Owned Post Office Boxes to be directly deposited into a Collection
Account in accordance with the Security Agreement and (ii) the Company Owned Post Office Boxes to be converted to Lock-Boxes to the extent required under the Security Agreement. In the event any payments relating to the Receivables are remitted
directly to the Seller or any Affiliate of the Seller, the Seller will remit (or will cause all such payments to be remitted) directly to a Collection Bank and deposited into a Collection Account within two (2) Business Days following receipt
thereof, and, at all times prior to such remittance, the Seller will hold (or will cause such payments to be held) in trust for the exclusive benefit of the Buyer and the Administrative Agent, subject to the Servicer’s rights under
Section 8.02 of the Credit Agreement. The Servicer shall maintain exclusive ownership, dominion and control (subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement and the applicable Collection Account Agreement) of each Lock-Box and each
Collection Account and shall ensure that no right to take dominion and control of any Lock-Box or any Collection Account is granted at a future time or upon the occurrence of a future event to any Person except to the Administrative Agent as
contemplated by the Credit Agreement and the Transactions Documents. The Seller will cause each Lock-Box or Collection Account listed on Schedule C to be re-titled in the name of the Buyer on or before the date that is thirty (30) days
after the date of this Agreement. 
 (n) Payment to the Originators. The Seller will purchase all Receivables to be purchased from
any other Originator under, and in strict compliance with the terms of, the related Receivables Transfer Agreement, including the terms relating to the amount and timing of payments to be made to such Originator in respect of the purchase price for
such Receivables. 
 SECTION 5.02. Negative Covenants of the Seller. Until the date on which this Agreement terminates in
accordance with its terms, the Seller hereby covenants and agrees that: 
 (a) Sales, Liens. The Seller will not sell, assign (by
operation of law or otherwise) or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, or create or suffer to exist any Lien upon (including the filing of any financing statement) or with respect to, any Receivable, or any Related Security or
Collections with respect thereto, or upon or with respect to any Contract under which any Receivable arises, or any Lock-Box or Collection Account, or assign any right to receive income with respect thereto (other than, in each case, the creation of
the interests therein in favor of the Buyer as contemplated by this Agreement or as contemplated by Section 6.18 of the Credit Agreement). The Seller will not create or suffer to exist any mortgage, pledge, security interest,
encumbrance, lien, charge or other similar arrangement on any of its inventory other than as permitted pursuant to the Inventory Facility Credit Agreement. 

  
 21 

 (b) Change in Payment Instructions to Obligors. Except as may be required by the
Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.02(b) of the Credit Agreement, the Seller will not add or terminate any bank as a Collection Bank, or make any change in the instructions to Obligors regarding payments to be made to any
Lock-Box or Collection Account, unless the Buyer and the Administrative Agent shall have received, at least ten (10) days before the proposed effective date therefor, (i) written notice of such addition, termination or change and
(ii) with respect to the addition of a Collection Bank or the addition of a Lock-Box or Collection Account, an executed Collection Account Agreement with respect to the new Lock-Box or Collection Account; provided that the Seller may
make changes in instructions to Obligors regarding payments if such new instructions require such Obligor to make payments to another existing Collection Account. 

(c) Modifications to Contracts and Credit and Collection Policy. The Seller will not, and will not permit any other Originator to, make
any change to any Credit and Collection Policy that could reasonably be expected to adversely affect the collectability of the Receivables or decrease the credit quality of any newly created Receivables, unless required to do so by a change in any
applicable law, rule or regulation. Except as otherwise permitted in its capacity as the Servicer pursuant to Section 8.02(d) of the Credit Agreement, the Seller will not, and will not permit any other Originator to, extend, amend or
otherwise modify the terms of any Receivable or any related Contract other than in accordance with the applicable Credit and Collection Policy. 

(d) Termination of Receivables Transfer Agreements. The Seller will not terminate any Receivables Transfer Agreement without the prior
written consent of the Buyer and the Administrative Agent, except for a termination arising as a result of the Facility Termination Date. 

(e) Name Change; Offices and Records. The Seller will not change its name, identity, state of incorporation, corporate structure or
organization identification number, if any, or relocate its chief executive office or any office where Records are kept unless it shall have: (i) given the Buyer and the Administrative Agent at least forty-five (45) days’ prior
written notice thereof and (ii) delivered to the Buyer and the Administrative Agent all financing statements, instruments and other documents requested by the Buyer or the Administrative Agent in connection with such change or relocation. 

(f) Protection of Title. The Seller will defend the right, title and interest of the Buyer and the Administrative Agent in, to and
under the Receivables, and the Related Security and Collections with respect thereto, each Contract under which any Receivable arises, each Lock-Box and each Collection Account against all claims of third parties claiming through or under the Seller
or any other Originator. 
 (g) Accounting for Purchase. The Seller will not, and will not permit any Affiliate to, account for or
treat (whether in financial statements or otherwise) the transactions contemplated hereby in any manner other than as a sale by the Seller to the Buyer of the Receivables and the Related Security with respect thereto, except to the extent that such
transactions are not recognized on account of consolidated financial reporting in accordance with GAAP.

zero or otherwise terminated pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement and the Aggregate Credit Exposure

resulted from gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Indemnified Party seeking indemnification;

located, on or measured by the overall net income of such Indemnified Party.

it (i) to the Buyer, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders by each other and (ii) by the Buyer, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to any prospective or actual assignee or participant of any of them, provided that each such Person

IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY
OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, OTHER AGENT (INCLUDING ANY 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.

Agent or a Lender at such time that are reasonably expected to result in any loss, cost, damage, or expense (including attorneys’ fees and legal expenses), such cash collateral to be in such amount as Administrative Agent reasonably determines
is appropriate to secure such contingent Obligations, (e) the payment or repayment in full in immediately available funds of all other outstanding Obligations (including the payment of any termination amount then applicable (or which would or
could become applicable as a result of the repayment of the other Obligations) under Swap Agreements provided by Swap Providers) other than (i) unasserted contingent indemnification Obligations, (ii) any Bank Product Obligations (other
than Swap Obligations) that, at such time, are allowed by the applicable Bank Product Provider to remain outstanding without being required to be repaid or cash collateralized, and (iii) any Swap Obligations that, at such time, are allowed by
the 

  
 2 

 
applicable Swap Provider to remain outstanding without being required to be repaid, and (f) the termination of all of the Commitments of the Lenders. Any reference herein to any Person shall
be construed to include such Person’s successors and assigns. Any requirement of a writing contained herein or in any other Loan Document shall be satisfied by the transmission of a Record. 

1.5 Time References. Unless the context of this Agreement or any other Loan Document clearly requires otherwise, all references
to time of day refer to Central standard time or Central daylight saving time, as in effect in Chicago, Illinois, on such day. For purposes of the computation of a period of time from a specified date to a later specified date, the word
“from” means “from and including” and the words “to” and “until” each means “to and including”; provided that, with respect to a computation of fees or interest payable to Administrative Agent
or any Lender, such period shall in any event consist of at least one full day.

 2. LOANS AND TERMS OF PAYMENT. 

2.1 Revolving Loans. 

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and during the term of this Agreement, each Revolving Lender agrees (severally, not
jointly or jointly and severally) to make revolving loans (“Revolving Loans”) to Borrowers in an amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed the lesser of: 

(i) such Lender’s Revolver Commitment, or 

(ii) such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of an amount equal to (A) the least of (1) the Maximum Revolver Amount, (2) the
Borrowing Base as of such date (based upon the most recent Borrowing Base Certificate delivered by Borrowers to Administrative Agent), and (3) the Secured Debt Indenture Cap Amount as of such date (based upon the most recent Borrowing Base
Certificate delivered by Borrowers to Administrative Agent), less (B) the sum of (1) the Letter of Credit Usage at such time, plus (2) the principal amount of Swing Loans outstanding at such time. 

(b) Amounts borrowed pursuant to this Section 2.1 may be repaid and, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement,
reborrowed at any time during the term of this Agreement. The outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans, together with interest accrued and unpaid thereon, shall constitute Obligations and shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date or,
if earlier, on the date on which they are declared due and payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. 
 (c) Anything to the contrary
in this Section 2.1 notwithstanding, Administrative Agent shall have the right (but not the obligation), in the exercise of its Permitted Discretion, to establish and increase or decrease (i) Bank Product Reserves and other Reserves
against the Borrowing Base or the Maximum Revolver Amount, (ii) Inventory Reserves against the Borrowing Base, and (iii) if the Borrowing Base does not exceed the Maximum Revolver Amount, Inventory Reserves against the Maximum Revolver
Amount. The amount of any Inventory Reserve, Bank Product Reserve, or other Reserve established by Administrative Agent shall have a reasonable relationship to the event, condition, other circumstance, or fact that is the basis for such reserve and
shall not be duplicative of any other reserve established and currently maintained.

 2.2 [Reserved]. 

2.3 Borrowing Procedures and Settlements. 

(a) Procedure for Borrowing Revolving Loans. Each Borrowing shall be made by a written request by an Authorized Person delivered to
Administrative Agent and received by Administrative Agent no later than noon (i) on the Business Day that is the requested Funding Date in the case of a request for a Swing Loan, and (ii) on the Business Day that is 1 Business Day prior to
the requested Funding Date in the case of all other requests, specifying (A) the amount of such Borrowing, and (B) the requested Funding Date (which shall be a Business Day); provided, that Administrative Agent may, in its sole
discretion, elect to accept as timely requests that are received later than noon on the applicable Business Day. At Administrative Agent’s election, in lieu of delivering the above-described written request, any Authorized Person may give
Administrative Agent telephonic notice of such request by the required time. In such circumstances, Borrowers agree that any such telephonic notice will be confirmed in writing within 24 hours of the giving of such telephonic notice, but the failure
to provide such written confirmation shall not affect the validity of the request. 
 (b) Making of Swing Loans. In the case of a
request for a Revolving Loan and so long as either (i) the aggregate amount of Swing Loans made since the last Settlement Date, minus all payments or other amounts applied to Swing Loans since the last Settlement Date, plus the
amount of the requested Swing Loan does not exceed an amount equal to $15,000,000, or (ii) Swing Lender, in its sole discretion, agrees to make a Swing Loan notwithstanding the foregoing limitation, Swing Lender shall make a Revolving Loan (any
such Revolving Loan made by Swing Lender pursuant to this Section 2.3(b) being referred to as a “Swing Loan” and all such Revolving Loans being referred to as “Swing Loans”) available to Borrowers on the
Funding Date applicable thereto by transferring immediately available funds in the amount of such requested Borrowing to the Designated Account. Each Swing Loan shall be deemed to be a Revolving Loan hereunder and shall be subject to all the terms
and conditions (including Section 3) applicable to other Revolving Loans, except that all payments (including interest) on any Swing Loan shall be payable to Swing Lender solely for its own account. Subject to the provisions of
Section 2.3(d)(ii), Swing Lender shall not make and shall not be obligated to make any Swing Loan if Swing Lender has actual knowledge that (i) one or more of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 3
will not be satisfied on the requested Funding Date for the applicable Borrowing, or (ii) the requested Borrowing would exceed the Availability on such Funding Date. Swing Lender shall not otherwise be required to determine whether the
applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 3 have been satisfied on the Funding Date applicable thereto prior to making any Swing Loan. The Swing Loans shall be secured by Administrative Agent’s Liens, constitute Revolving
Loans and Obligations, and bear interest at the rate applicable from time to time to Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans. 
 (c)
Making of Revolving Loans. 
 (i) In the event that Swing Lender is not obligated to make a Swing Loan, then after receipt of a
request for a Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.3(a), Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders by telecopy, telephone, email, or other electronic form of transmission, of the requested Borrowing; such notification to be sent on the
Business Day that is 1 Business Day prior to the 

  
 4 

 
requested Funding Date. If Administrative Agent has notified the Lenders of a requested Borrowing on the Business Day that is 1 Business Day prior to the Funding Date, then each Lender shall
make the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the requested Borrowing available to Administrative Agent in immediately available funds, to Administrative Agent’s Account, not later than noon on the Business Day that is the requested
Funding Date. After Administrative Agent’s receipt of the proceeds of such Revolving Loans from the Lenders, Administrative Agent shall make the proceeds thereof available to Borrowers on the applicable Funding Date by transferring immediately
available funds equal to such proceeds received by Administrative Agent to the Designated Account; provided, that, subject to the provisions of Section 2.3(d)(ii), no Lender shall have an obligation to make any Revolving Loan if
(1) one or more of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 3 will not be satisfied on the requested Funding Date for the applicable Borrowing unless such condition has been waived, or (2) the requested
Borrowing would exceed the Availability on such Funding Date. 
 (ii) Unless Administrative Agent receives notice from a Lender prior to
11:30 a.m. on the Business Day that is the requested Funding Date relative to a requested Borrowing as to which Administrative Agent has notified the Lenders of a requested Borrowing that such Lender will not make available as and when required
hereunder to Administrative Agent for the account of Borrowers the amount of that Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Borrowing, Administrative Agent may assume that each Lender has made or will make such amount available to Administrative Agent in
immediately available funds on the Funding Date and Administrative Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrowers a corresponding amount. If, on the requested Funding Date, any Lender shall
not have remitted the full amount that it is required to make available to Administrative Agent in immediately available funds and if Administrative Agent has made available to Borrowers such amount on the requested Funding Date, then such Lender
shall make the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the requested Borrowing available to Administrative Agent in immediately available funds, to Administrative Agent’s Account, no later than noon on the Business Day that is the first
Business Day after the requested Funding Date (in which case, the interest accrued on such Lender’s portion of such Borrowing for the Funding Date shall be for Administrative Agent’s separate account). If any Lender shall not remit the
full amount that it is required to make available to Administrative Agent in immediately available funds as and when required hereby and if Administrative Agent has made available to Borrowers such amount, then that Lender shall be obligated to
immediately remit such amount to Administrative Agent, together with interest at the Defaulting Lender Rate for each day until the date on which such amount is so remitted. A notice submitted by Administrative Agent to any Lender with respect to
amounts owing under this Section 2.3(c)(ii) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. If the amount that a Lender is required to remit is made available to Administrative Agent, then such payment to Administrative Agent shall
constitute such Lender’s Revolving Loan for all purposes of this Agreement. If such amount is not made available to Administrative Agent on the Business Day following the Funding Date, Administrative Agent will notify Borrowers of such failure
to fund and, upon demand by Administrative Agent, Borrowers shall pay such amount to Administrative Agent for Administrative Agent’s account, together with interest thereon for each day elapsed since the date of such Borrowing, at a rate per
annum equal to the interest rate applicable at the time to the Revolving Loans composing such Borrowing. 

  
 5 

 (d) Protective Advances and Optional Overadvances. 

(i) Any contrary provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document notwithstanding but subject to Section 2.3(d)(iv), at any
time (A) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, or (B) that any of the other applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 3 are not satisfied, Administrative Agent hereby is
authorized by Borrowers and the Lenders, from time to time, in Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, to make Revolving Loans to, or for the benefit of, Borrowers, on behalf of the Revolving Lenders, that Administrative Agent, in its Permitted
Discretion, deems necessary or desirable (1) to preserve or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof, or (2) to enhance the likelihood of repayment of the Obligations (other than the Bank Product Obligations) (the Revolving Loans
described in this Section 2.3(d)(i) shall be referred to as “Protective Advances”), so long as (x) the aggregate amount of all Protective Advances outstanding at any one time does not exceed an amount equal to 5% of
the Maximum Revolver Amount, and (y) after giving effect to such Revolving Loans, the outstanding Revolver Usage (except for and excluding amounts charged to the Loan Account for interest, fees, or Lender Group Expenses) does not exceed the
lesser of the Maximum Revolver Amount and the Secured Debt Indenture Cap Amount. Administrative Agent’s authorization to make Protective Advances may be revoked at any time by the Required Lenders. 

(ii) Any contrary provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document notwithstanding, but subject to Section 2.3(d)(iv), the
Lenders hereby authorize Administrative Agent or Swing Lender, as applicable (which authorization may be revoked at any time at the written election of the Required Lenders), and either Administrative Agent or Swing Lender, as applicable, may, but
is not obligated to, knowingly and intentionally, continue to make Revolving Loans (including Swing Loans) to Borrowers notwithstanding that an Overadvance exists or would be created thereby, so long as (A) after giving effect to such Revolving
Loans, the outstanding Revolver Usage does not exceed the Borrowing Base by more than an amount equal to 5% of the Maximum Revolver Amount, and (B) after giving effect to such Revolving Loans, the outstanding Revolver Usage (except for and
excluding amounts charged to the Loan Account for interest, fees, or Lender Group Expenses) does not exceed the lesser of the Maximum Revolver Amount and the Secured Debt Indenture Cap Amount. In the event Administrative Agent obtains actual
knowledge that the Revolver Usage exceeds the amounts permitted by the immediately foregoing provisions, regardless of the amount of, or reason for, such excess, Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders as soon as practicable (and prior to
making any (or any additional) intentional Overadvances (except for and excluding amounts charged to the Loan Account for interest, fees, or Lender Group Expenses) unless Administrative Agent determines that prior notice would result in imminent
harm to the Collateral or its value, in which case Administrative Agent may make such Overadvances and provide notice as promptly as practicable thereafter), and the Lenders with Revolver Commitments thereupon shall, together with Administrative
Agent, jointly determine the terms of arrangements that shall be implemented with Borrowers intended to reduce, within a reasonable time, the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans to Borrowers to an amount permitted by the preceding
sentence. In such circumstances, if any Lender with a Revolver Commitment objects to the proposed terms of reduction or repayment of any Overadvance, the terms of reduction or repayment thereof shall be implemented according to the determination of
the Required Lenders. The foregoing provisions are meant for the benefit of the Lenders and Administrative Agent and are not meant for the benefit of Borrowers, which shall continue to be bound by the provisions of Section 2.4(e)(i).
Each Lender with a Revolver Commitment shall be obligated to settle with Administrative Agent as provided in Section 2.3(e) (or Section 2.3(g), as applicable) for the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any

  
 6 

 
unintentional Overadvances by Administrative Agent reported to such Lender, any intentional Overadvances made as permitted under this Section 2.3(d)(ii), and any Overadvances
resulting from the charging to the Loan Account of interest, fees, or Lender Group Expenses. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no intentional Overadvance made as permitted under this Section 2.3(d)(ii) may remain outstanding for more than
thirty (30) days. 
 (iii) Each Protective Advance and each Overadvance (each, an “Extraordinary Advance”) shall
be deemed to be a Revolving Loan hereunder, except that no Extraordinary Advance shall be eligible to be a LIBOR Rate Loan and, prior to Settlement therefor, all payments on the Extraordinary Advances shall be payable to Administrative Agent solely
for its own account. The Extraordinary Advances shall be repayable on demand, secured by Administrative Agent’s Liens, constitute Obligations hereunder, and bear interest at the rate applicable from time to time to Revolving Loans that are Base
Rate Loans. The provisions of this Section 2.3(d) are for the exclusive benefit of Administrative Agent, Swing Lender, and the Lenders and are not intended to benefit Borrowers (or any other Loan Party) in any way. 

(iv) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary: (A) no Extraordinary Advance may
be made by Administrative Agent if such Extraordinary Advance would cause the aggregate principal amount of Extraordinary Advances outstanding to exceed an amount equal to 5% of the Maximum Revolver Amount; and (B) no Extraordinary Advance may
be made by Administrative Agent if such Extraordinary Advance would cause the aggregate Revolver Usage to exceed the Maximum Revolver Amount. 

(e) Settlement. It is agreed that each Lender’s funded portion of the Revolving Loans is intended by the Lenders to equal, at all
times, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Revolving Loans. Such agreement notwithstanding, Administrative Agent, Swing Lender, and the other Lenders agree (which agreement shall not be for the benefit of Borrowers) that in order to
facilitate the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, settlement among the Lenders as to the Revolving Loans, the Swing Loans, and the Extraordinary Advances shall take place on a periodic basis in accordance with the
following provisions: 
 (i) Administrative Agent shall request settlement (“Settlement”) with the Lenders on a weekly
basis, or on a more frequent basis if so determined by Administrative Agent in its sole discretion (1) on behalf of Swing Lender, with respect to the outstanding Swing Loans, (2) for itself, with respect to the outstanding Extraordinary
Advances, and (3) with respect to Borrowers’ or any of their Subsidiaries’ payments or other amounts received, as to each by notifying the Lenders by telecopy, telephone, or other similar form of transmission, of such requested
Settlement, no later noon on the date of such requested Settlement (the date of such requested Settlement being the “Settlement Date”). Such notice of a Settlement Date shall include a summary statement of the amount of outstanding
Revolving Loans, Swing Loans, and Extraordinary Advances for the period since the prior Settlement Date. Subject to the terms and conditions contained herein (including Section 2.3(g)): (y) if the amount of the Revolving Loans
(including Swing Loans, and Extraordinary Advances) made by a Lender that is not a Defaulting Lender exceeds such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loans (including Swing Loans, and Extraordinary Advances) as of a Settlement Date, then
Administrative Agent shall, by no later than 2:00 p.m. on the Settlement Date, transfer in immediately available funds to a Deposit Account of such Lender (as such Lender may designate), an amount such that each such Lender shall, upon receipt
of such amount, have as of the Settlement Date, its Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loans (including Swing Loans, and Extraordinary Advances), and (z) if the amount of the Revolving Loans (including Swing Loans, and Extraordinary Advances) made
by a Lender is less than such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loans (including Swing 

  
 7 

 
Loans, and Extraordinary Advances) as of a Settlement Date, such Lender shall no later than 2:00 p.m. on the Settlement Date transfer in immediately available funds to Administrative
Agent’s Account, an amount such that each such Lender shall, upon transfer of such amount, have as of the Settlement Date, its Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loans (including Swing Loans and Extraordinary Advances). Such amounts made available
to Administrative Agent under clause (z) of the immediately preceding sentence shall be applied against the amounts of the applicable Swing Loans or Extraordinary Advances and, together with the portion of such Swing Loans or
Extraordinary Advances representing Swing Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof, shall constitute Revolving Loans of such Lenders. If any such amount is not made available to Administrative Agent by any Lender on the Settlement Date applicable
thereto to the extent required by the terms hereof, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover for its account such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon at the Defaulting Lender Rate. 

(ii) In determining whether a Lender’s balance of the Revolving Loans, Swing Loans, and Extraordinary Advances is less than, equal to,
or greater than such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loans, Swing Loans, and Extraordinary Advances as of a Settlement Date, Administrative Agent shall, as part of the relevant Settlement, apply to such balance the portion of payments
actually received in good funds by Administrative Agent with respect to principal, interest, fees payable by Borrowers and allocable to the Lenders hereunder, and proceeds of Collateral. 

(iii) Between Settlement Dates, Administrative Agent, to the extent Extraordinary Advances or Swing Loans are outstanding, may pay over to
Administrative Agent or Swing Lender, as applicable, any payments or other amounts received by Administrative Agent, that in accordance with the terms of this Agreement would be applied to the reduction of the Revolving Loans, for application to the
Extraordinary Advances or Swing Loans. Between Settlement Dates, Administrative Agent, to the extent no Extraordinary Advances or Swing Loans are outstanding, may pay over to Swing Lender any payments or other amounts received by Administrative
Agent, that in accordance with the terms of this Agreement would be applied to the reduction of the Revolving Loans, for application to Swing Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loans. If, as of any Settlement Date, payments or other
amounts of Borrowers or their Subsidiaries received since the then immediately preceding Settlement Date have been applied to Swing Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loans other than to Swing Loans, as provided for in the previous
sentence, Swing Lender shall pay to Administrative Agent for the accounts of the Lenders, and Administrative Agent shall pay to the Lenders (other than a Defaulting Lender if Administrative Agent has implemented the provisions of
Section 2.3(g)), to be applied to the outstanding Revolving Loans of such Lenders, an amount such that each such Lender shall, upon receipt of such amount, have, as of such Settlement Date, its Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loans.
During the period between Settlement Dates, Swing Lender with respect to Swing Loans, Administrative Agent with respect to Extraordinary Advances, and each Lender with respect to the Revolving Loans other than Swing Loans and Extraordinary Advances,
shall be entitled to interest at the applicable rate or rates payable under this Agreement on the daily amount of funds employed by Swing Lender, Administrative Agent, or the Lenders, as applicable. 

(iv) Anything in this Section 2.3(e) to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that a Lender is a Defaulting Lender,
Administrative Agent shall be entitled to refrain from remitting settlement amounts to the Defaulting Lender and, instead, shall be entitled to elect to implement the provisions set forth in Section 2.3(g). 

  
 8 

 (f) Notation. Administrative Agent, as a non-fiduciary agent for Borrowers, shall maintain
a register showing the principal amount of the Revolving Loans owing to each Lender, including the Swing Loans owing to Swing Lender, and Extraordinary Advances owing to Administrative Agent, and the interests therein of each Lender, from time to
time and such register shall, absent manifest error, conclusively be presumed to be correct and accurate. 
 (g) Defaulting Lenders.

 (i) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.4(b)(iii), Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to
transfer to a Defaulting Lender any payments made by Borrowers to Administrative Agent for the Defaulting Lender’s benefit or any proceeds of Collateral that would otherwise be remitted hereunder to the Defaulting Lender, and, in the absence of
such transfer to the Defaulting Lender, Administrative Agent shall transfer any such payments (A) first, to Swing Lender to the extent of any Swing Loans that were made by Swing Lender and that were required to be, but were not, paid by the
Defaulting Lender, (B) second, to Issuing Bank, to the extent of the portion of a Letter of Credit Disbursement that was required to be, but was not, paid by the Defaulting Lender, (C) third, to each Non-Defaulting Lender ratably in
accordance with their Commitments (but, in each case, only to the extent that such Defaulting Lender’s portion of a Revolving Loan (or other funding obligation) was funded by such other Non-Defaulting Lender), (D) to a suspense account
maintained by Administrative Agent, the proceeds of which shall be retained by Administrative Agent and may be made available to be re-advanced to or for the benefit of Borrowers (upon the request of Borrowers and subject to the conditions set forth
in Section 3.2) as if such Defaulting Lender had made its portion of Revolving Loans (or other funding obligations) hereunder, and (E) from and after the date on which all other Obligations have been paid in full, to such Defaulting Lender in
accordance with tier (L) of Section 2.4(b)(iii). Subject to the foregoing, Administrative Agent may hold and, in its discretion, re-lend to Borrowers for the account of such Defaulting Lender the amount of all such payments received
and retained by Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender. Solely for the purposes of voting or consenting to matters with respect to the Loan Documents (including the calculation of Pro Rata Share in connection therewith) and
for the purpose of calculating the fee payable under Section 2.10(b), such Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a “Lender” and such Lender’s Commitment shall be deemed to be zero; provided, that the foregoing
shall not apply to any of the matters governed by Section 14.1(a)(i) through (iii). The provisions of this Section 2.3(g) shall remain effective with respect to such Defaulting Lender until the earlier of (y) the date on which
all of the Non-Defaulting Lenders, Administrative Agent, Issuing Bank, and Borrowers shall have waived, in writing, the application of this Section 2.3(g) to such Defaulting Lender, or (z) the date on which such Defaulting Lender makes
payment of all amounts that it was obligated to fund hereunder, pays to Administrative Agent all amounts owing by Defaulting Lender in respect of the amounts that it was obligated to fund hereunder, and, if requested by Administrative Agent,
provides adequate assurance of its ability to perform its future obligations hereunder (on which earlier date, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any remaining cash collateral held by Administrative Agent pursuant to
Section 2.3(g)(ii) shall be released to Borrowers). The operation of this Section 2.3(g) shall not be construed to increase or otherwise affect the Commitment of any Lender, to relieve or excuse the performance by such Defaulting
Lender or any other Lender of its duties and obligations hereunder, or to relieve or excuse the 

  
 9 

 
performance by any Borrower of its duties and obligations hereunder to Administrative Agent, Issuing Bank, or to the Lenders other than such Defaulting Lender. Any failure by a Defaulting Lender
to fund amounts that it was obligated to fund hereunder shall constitute a material breach by such Defaulting Lender of this Agreement and shall entitle Borrowers, at their option, upon written notice to Administrative Agent, to arrange for a
substitute Lender to assume the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender, such substitute Lender to be reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent. In connection with the arrangement of such a substitute Lender, the Defaulting Lender shall have no
right to refuse to be replaced hereunder, and agrees to execute and deliver a completed form of Assignment and Acceptance in favor of the substitute Lender (and agrees that it shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such document if it fails
to do so) subject only to being paid its share of the outstanding Obligations (other than Bank Product Obligations, but including (1) all interest, fees, and other amounts that may be due and payable in respect thereof, and (2) an
assumption of its Pro Rata Share of its participation in the Letters of Credit); provided, that any such assumption of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of any of the Lender Groups’ or
Borrowers’ rights or remedies against any such Defaulting Lender arising out of or in relation to such failure to fund. In the event of a direct conflict between the priority provisions of this Section 2.3(g) and any other provision
contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, it is the intention of the parties hereto that such provisions be read together and construed, to the fullest extent possible, to be in concert with each other. In the event of any actual,
irreconcilable conflict that cannot be resolved as aforesaid, the terms and provisions of this Section 2.3(g) shall control and govern. 

(ii) If any Swing Loan or Letter of Credit is outstanding at the time that a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then: 

(A) such Defaulting Lender’s Swing Loan Exposure and Letter of Credit Exposure shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in
accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares but only to the extent (x) the sum of all Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Loan Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s Swing Loan Exposure and Letter of Credit Exposure does
not exceed the total of all Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolver Commitments and (y) the conditions set forth in Section 3.2 are satisfied at such time; 

(B) if the reallocation described in clause (A) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, Borrowers shall within one
Business Day following notice by Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay such Defaulting Lender’s Swing Loan Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (A) above) and
(y) second, cash collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (A) above), pursuant to a cash collateral agreement to be entered
into in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent, for so long as such Letter of Credit Exposure is outstanding; provided, that Borrowers shall not be obligated to cash collateralize any Defaulting Lender’s
Letter of Credit Exposure if such Defaulting Lender is also the Issuing Bank; 
 (C) if Borrowers cash collateralize any portion of such
Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure pursuant to this Section 2.3(g)(ii), Borrowers shall not be required to pay any Letter of Credit Fees to Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to
Section 2.6(b) with respect to such cash collateralized portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure during the period such Letter of Credit Exposure is cash collateralized; 

  
 10 

 (D) to the extent the Letter of Credit Exposure of the Non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated
pursuant to this Section 2.3(g)(ii), then the Letter of Credit Fees payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders pursuant to Section 2.6(b) shall be adjusted in accordance with such Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Letter of Credit
Exposure; 
 (E) to the extent any Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure is neither cash collateralized nor reallocated
pursuant to this Section 2.3(g)(ii), then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Bank or any Lender hereunder, all Letter of Credit Fees that would have otherwise been payable to such Defaulting Lender under
Section 2.6(b) with respect to such portion of such Letter of Credit Exposure shall instead be payable to the Issuing Bank until such portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure is cash collateralized or
reallocated; 
 (F) so long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swing Lender shall not be required to make any Swing Loan and the
Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend, or increase any Letter of Credit, in each case, to the extent (x) the Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Swing Loans or Letter of Credit cannot be reallocated pursuant to this
Section 2.3(g)(ii) or (y) the Swing Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, has not otherwise entered into arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Swing Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, and Borrowers to eliminate the Swing
Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s risk with respect to the Defaulting Lender’s participation in Swing Loans or Letters of Credit; and 

(G) Administrative Agent may release any cash collateral provided by Borrowers pursuant to this
Section 2.3(g)(ii) to the Issuing Bank and the Issuing Bank may apply any such cash collateral to the payment of such Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any Letter of Credit Disbursement that is not reimbursed by Borrowers
pursuant to Section 2.11(d). 
 (h) Independent Obligations. All Revolving Loans (other than Swing Loans and Extraordinary
Advances) shall be made by the Lenders contemporaneously and in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares. It is understood that (i) no Lender shall be responsible for any failure by any other Lender to perform its obligation to make any Revolving
Loan (or other extension of credit) hereunder, nor shall any Commitment of any Lender be increased or decreased as a result of any failure by any other Lender to perform its obligations hereunder, and (ii) no failure by any Lender to perform
its obligations hereunder shall excuse any other Lender from its obligations hereunder. 
 2.4 Payments; Reductions of Commitments;
Prepayments. 
 (a) Payments by Borrowers. 

(i) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by Borrowers shall be made to Administrative Agent’s Account for the
account of the Lender Group and shall be made in immediately available funds, no later than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified herein. Any payment received by Administrative Agent later than 2:00 p.m. shall be deemed to have been received
(unless Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, elects to credit it on the date received) on the following Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue until such following Business Day. 

  
 11 

 (ii) Unless Administrative Agent receives notice from Borrowers prior to the date on which any
payment is due to the Lenders that Borrowers will not make such payment in full as and when required, Administrative Agent may assume that Borrowers have made (or will make) such payment in full to Administrative Agent on such date in immediately
available funds and Administrative Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent Borrowers do not make
such payment in full to Administrative Agent on the date when due, each Lender severally shall repay to Administrative Agent on demand such amount distributed to such Lender, together with interest thereon at the Defaulting Lender Rate for each day
from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date repaid. 
 (b) Apportionment and Application.

knowledge of such excess) prepay the Obligations in accordance with Section 2.4(f)(i) in an aggregate amount equal to the amount of such excess. 

(ii) [Reserved].

applicable Lender Group Expenses were first incurred or (ii) the date on which demand therefor is made by Administrative Agent (it being acknowledged and agreed that any charging of such costs, expenses or Lender Group Expenses to the Loan
Account pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.6(d) shall be deemed to constitute a demand for payment thereof for the purposes of this subclause (ii)). Borrowers promise to pay all of the Obligations (including principal,
interest, premiums, if any, fees, costs, and expenses (including Lender Group Expenses)) in full on the Maturity Date or, if earlier, on the date on which the Obligations (other than the Bank Product Obligations) become due and payable pursuant to

 2.6 Interest Rates and Letter of Credit Fee: Rates, Payments, and Calculations.

 (a) Interest Rates. Except as provided in Section 2.6(c), all Obligations (except for undrawn Letters of Credit) that
have been charged to the Loan Account pursuant to the terms hereof shall bear interest as follows: 
 (i) if the relevant Obligation is a
LIBOR Rate Loan, at a per annum rate equal to the LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Margin, and 
 (ii) otherwise, at a per
annum rate equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin. 
 (b) Letter of Credit Fee. Borrowers shall pay
Administrative Agent (for the ratable benefit of the Revolving Lenders), a Letter of Credit fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) (which fee shall be in addition to the fronting fees and commissions, other fees, charges and expenses set
forth in Section 2.11(k)) that shall accrue at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin for Revolving Loans that are LIBOR Rate Loans times the undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit. 

(c) Default Rate. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default and at the election of Administrative Agent or
the Required Lenders, 
 (i) all Obligations (except for undrawn Letters of Credit) that have been charged to the Loan Account pursuant to
the terms hereof shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to 2 percentage points above the per annum rate otherwise applicable thereunder, and 

(ii) the Letter of Credit Fee shall be increased to 2 percentage points above the per annum rate otherwise applicable hereunder. 

(d) Payment. Except to the extent provided to the contrary in Section 2.10, Section 2.11(k), or
Section 2.12(a), (i) all interest, all Letter of Credit Fees and all other fees payable hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents shall be due and payable, in arrears, on the first day of each month, and (ii) all costs
and expenses payable hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, and all Lender Group Expenses shall be due and payable on the earlier of (x) the first day of the month following the date on which the applicable costs, expenses, or
Lender Group Expenses were first incurred or (y) the date on which demand therefor is made by Administrative Agent (it being acknowledged and agreed that any charging of such costs, expenses or Lender Group Expenses to the Loan Account pursuant
to the provisions of the following sentence shall be deemed to constitute a demand for payment thereof for the purposes of this subclause (y)). Borrowers hereby authorize Administrative Agent, from time to time without prior notice to
Borrowers, to charge to the Loan Account (A) on the first day of each month, all interest accrued during the prior month on the Revolving Loans hereunder, (B) on the first day of each month, all Letter of Credit Fees accrued or chargeable
hereunder during the prior month, (C) as and when incurred or accrued, all fees and costs provided for in Section 2.10(a) or (c), (D) on the first day of each month, the Unused Line Fee accrued during the prior month pursuant
to Section 2.10(b), (E) as and when due and payable, all other fees payable hereunder or 

  
 16 

 
under any of the other Loan Documents, (F) as and when incurred or accrued, the fronting fees and all commissions, other fees, charges and expenses provided for in
Section 2.11(k), (G) as and when incurred or accrued, all other Lender Group Expenses, and (H) as and when due and payable all other payment obligations payable under any Loan Document or any Bank Product Agreement (including
any amounts due and payable to the Bank Product Providers in respect of Bank Products). All amounts (including interest, fees, costs, expenses, Lender Group Expenses, or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document or under any
Bank Product Agreement) charged to the Loan Account shall thereupon constitute Revolving Loans hereunder, shall constitute Obligations hereunder, and shall initially accrue interest at the rate then applicable to Revolving Loans that are Base Rate
Loans (unless and until converted into LIBOR Rate Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement). 
 (e) Computation. All
interest and fees chargeable under the Loan Documents shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed, other than for Base Rate Loans, which shall be calculated on the basis of a 365-
or 366-day year, as applicable, and actual days elapsed. In the event the Base Rate is changed from time to time hereafter, the rates of interest hereunder based upon the Base Rate automatically and immediately shall be increased or decreased by an
amount equal to such change in the Base Rate. 
 (f) Intent to Limit Charges to Maximum Lawful Rate. In no event shall the interest
rate or rates payable under this Agreement, plus any other amounts paid in connection herewith, exceed the highest rate permissible under any law that a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable.
Borrowers and the Lender Group, in executing and delivering this Agreement, intend legally to agree upon the rate or rates of interest and manner of payment stated within it; provided, that, anything contained herein to the contrary
notwithstanding, if such rate or rates of interest or manner of payment exceeds the maximum allowable under applicable law, then, ipso facto, as of the date of this Agreement, Borrowers are and shall be liable only for the payment of such
maximum amount as is allowed by law, and payment received from Borrowers in excess of such legal maximum, whenever received, shall be applied to reduce the principal balance of the Obligations to the extent of such excess. 

2.7 Crediting Payments. The receipt of any payment item by Administrative Agent shall not be required to be considered a payment
on account unless such payment item is a wire transfer of immediately available federal funds made to Administrative Agent’s Account or unless and until such payment item is honored when presented for payment. Should any payment item not be
honored when presented for payment, then Borrowers shall be deemed not to have made such payment and interest shall be calculated accordingly. Anything to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding, any payment item shall be deemed received by
Administrative Agent only if it is received into Administrative Agent’s Account on a Business Day on or before 2:00 p.m. If any payment item is received into Administrative Agent’s Account on a non-Business Day or after 2:00 p.m. on a
Business Day (unless Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, elects to credit it on the date received), it shall be deemed to have been received by Administrative Agent as of the opening of business on the immediately following Business Day.

 2.8 Designated Account. Administrative Agent is authorized to make the Revolving Loans, and Issuing Bank is authorized to
issue the Letters of Credit, under this Agreement based upon telephonic or other instructions received from anyone purporting to be an Authorized Person or, without instructions, if pursuant to Section 2.6(d). Borrowers agree to
establish and maintain the Designated Account with the 

  
 17 

 
Designated Account Bank for the purpose of receiving the proceeds of the Revolving Loans requested by Borrowers and made by Administrative Agent or the Lenders hereunder. Unless otherwise agreed
by Administrative Agent and Borrowers, any Revolving Loan or Swing Loan requested by Borrowers and made by Administrative Agent or the Lenders hereunder shall be made to the Designated Account. 

2.9 Maintenance of Loan Account; Statements of Obligations. Administrative Agent shall maintain an account on its books in the
name of Borrowers (the “Loan Account”) on which Borrowers will be charged with all Revolving Loans (including Extraordinary Advances and Swing Loans) made by Administrative Agent, Swing Lender, or the Lenders to Borrowers or for
Borrowers’ account, the Letters of Credit issued or arranged by Issuing Bank for Borrowers’ account, and with all other payment Obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, including, accrued interest, fees and expenses, and
Lender Group Expenses. In accordance with Section 2.7, the Loan Account will be credited with all payments received by Administrative Agent from Borrowers or for Borrowers’ account. Administrative Agent shall make available to
Borrowers monthly statements regarding the Loan Account, including the principal amount of the Revolving Loans, interest accrued hereunder, fees accrued or charged hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and a summary itemization of all charges
and expenses constituting Lender Group Expenses accrued hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and each such statement, absent manifest error, shall be conclusively presumed to be correct and accurate and constitute an account stated between
Borrowers and the Lender Group unless, within 30 days after Administrative Agent first makes such a statement available to Borrowers, Borrowers shall deliver to Administrative Agent written objection thereto describing the error or errors contained
in such statement. 
 2.10 Fees. 

(a) Administrative Agent Fees. Borrowers shall pay to Administrative Agent, for the account of Administrative Agent, as and when due and
payable under the terms of the Fee Letter, the fees set forth in the Fee Letter. 
 (b) Unused Line Fee. Borrowers shall pay to
Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of the Revolving Lenders, an unused line fee (the “Unused Line Fee”) in an amount equal to the Applicable Unused Line Fee Percentage per annum times the result of (i) the
aggregate amount of the Revolver Commitments, less (ii) the average amount of the Revolver Usage during the immediately preceding month (or portion thereof), which Unused Line Fee shall be due and payable on the first day of each month
from and after the Closing Date up to the first day of the month prior to the date on which the Obligations are paid in full and on the date on which the Obligations are paid in full. 

(c) Field Examination and Other Fees. Borrowers shall pay to Administrative Agent, field examination, appraisal, and valuation fees and
charges, as and when incurred or chargeable, as follows (i) a fee of $1,000 per day, per examiner, plus out-of-pocket expenses (including travel, meals, and lodging) for each field examination of any Borrower performed by personnel
employed by Administrative Agent, and (ii) the fees or charges paid or incurred by Administrative Agent (but, in any event, no less than a charge of $1,000 per day, per Person, plus out-of-pocket expenses (including travel, meals, and
lodging)) if it elects to employ the services of one or more third Persons to perform field examinations of any Borrower or its Subsidiaries, to establish electronic collateral reporting systems, to appraise the Collateral, or any portion thereof,
or to assess any Borrower’s or its Subsidiaries’ business valuation; provided, that (A) Borrowers shall be obligated to reimburse Administrative Agent for all field examinations and appraisals of Inventory conducted at any time
an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; (B) so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred 

  
 18 

 
and be continuing, Borrowers shall not be obligated to reimburse Administrative Agent during any calendar year for more than 1 field examination and more than 1 full appraisal of
Inventory; and (C) without duplication or limitation of the preceding subclauses (A) and (B), so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Borrowers shall not be obligated to reimburse Administrative
Agent during any calendar year for any additional field examinations or appraisals of Inventory unless at any time during such calendar year the Combined Availability falls below the greater of $93,750,000 and 12.5% of the Combined Commitment, in
which case, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Borrowers shall not be obligated to reimburse Administrative Agent during such calendar year for more than 1 such additional field examination and/or more than
1 such additional appraisal of Inventory, as applicable. 
 2.11 Letters of Credit. 

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, upon the request of Borrowers made in accordance herewith, and prior to the Maturity
Date, Issuing Bank agrees to issue a requested Letter of Credit for the account of Borrowers. By submitting a request to Issuing Bank for the issuance of a Letter of Credit, Borrowers shall be deemed to have requested that Issuing Bank issue the
requested Letter of Credit. Each request for the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or the amendment, renewal, or extension of any outstanding Letter of Credit, shall be irrevocable and shall be made in writing by an Authorized Person and delivered to
Issuing Bank via telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission reasonably acceptable to Issuing Bank and reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal, or extension. Each such request shall be in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to Issuing Bank and (i) shall specify (A) the amount of such Letter of Credit, (B) the date of issuance, amendment, renewal, or extension of such Letter of Credit, (C) the proposed expiration
date of such Letter of Credit (which expiration date shall not be later than the earlier of (1) the date that is 1 year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, including
any automatic renewal provision, 1 year after such renewal or extension), and (2) the date that is 5 Business Days before the Maturity Date, (D) the name and address of the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit, and (E) such
other information (including, the conditions to drawing, and, in the case of an amendment, renewal, or extension, identification of the Letter of Credit to be so amended, renewed, or extended) as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew, or
extend such Letter of Credit, and (ii) shall be accompanied by such Issuer Documents as Administrative Agent or Issuing Bank may request or require, to the extent that such requests or requirements are consistent with the Issuer Documents that
Issuing Bank generally requests for Letters of Credit in similar circumstances. Bank’s records of the content of any such request will be conclusive. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, Issuing Bank may, but shall not be
obligated to, issue a Letter of Credit that supports the obligations of Borrowers or one of their Subsidiaries in respect of a lease of real property or an employment contract. 

(b) Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to issue a Letter of Credit if any of the following would result after giving effect to the
requested issuance: 
 (i) the Letter of Credit Usage would exceed $20,000,000, or 

(ii) the Letter of Credit Usage would exceed (A) the least of (1) the Maximum Revolver Amount, (2) the Borrowing Base
at such time, and (3) the Secured Debt Indenture Cap Amount at such time, less (B) the outstanding amount of Revolving Loans (including Swing Loans). 

  
 19 

 (c) In the event there is a Defaulting Lender as of the date of any request for the issuance of a
Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue or arrange for such Letter of Credit to the extent (i) the Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure with respect to such Letter of Credit may not be reallocated
pursuant to Section 2.3(g)(ii), or (ii) the Issuing Bank has not otherwise entered into arrangements reasonably satisfactory to it and Borrowers to eliminate the Issuing Bank’s risk with respect to the participation in such
Letter of Credit of the Defaulting Lender, which arrangements may include Borrowers cash collateralizing such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure in accordance with Section 2.3(g)(ii). Additionally, Issuing Bank shall have
no obligation to issue a Letter of Credit if (A) any order, judgment, or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall, by its terms, purport to enjoin or restrain Issuing Bank from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any law
applicable to Issuing Bank or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over Issuing Bank shall prohibit or request that Issuing Bank refrain from the issuance of letters of
credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular, (B) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of Issuing Bank applicable to letters of credit generally, or (C) if amounts demanded to be paid under
any Letter of Credit will or may not be in United States Dollars. 
 (d) Any Issuing Bank (other than Wells Fargo or any of its Affiliates)
shall notify Administrative Agent in writing no later than the Business Day immediately following the Business Day on which such Issuing Bank issued any Letter of Credit; provided that (i) until Administrative Agent advises any such
Issuing Bank that the provisions of Section 3.2 are not satisfied, or (ii) unless the aggregate amount of the Letters of Credit issued in any such week exceeds such amount as shall be agreed by Administrative Agent and such Issuing
Bank, such Issuing Bank shall be required to so notify Administrative Agent in writing only once each week of the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank during the immediately preceding week as well as the daily amounts outstanding for the
prior week, such notice to be furnished on such day of the week as Administrative Agent and such Issuing Bank may agree. Borrowers and the Lender Group hereby acknowledge and agree that all Existing Letters of Credit shall constitute Letters of
Credit under this Agreement on and after the Closing Date with the same effect as if such Existing Letters of Credit were issued by Issuing Bank at the request of Borrowers on the Closing Date. Each Letter of Credit shall be in form and substance
reasonably acceptable to Issuing Bank, including the requirement that the amounts payable thereunder must be payable in Dollars. If Issuing Bank makes a payment under a Letter of Credit, Borrowers shall pay to Administrative Agent an amount equal to
the applicable Letter of Credit Disbursement on the Business Day such Letter of Credit Disbursement is made and, in the absence of such payment, the amount of the Letter of Credit Disbursement immediately and automatically shall be deemed to be a
Revolving Loan hereunder (notwithstanding any failure to satisfy any condition precedent set forth in Section 3) and, initially, shall bear interest at the rate then applicable to Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans. If a Letter of
Credit Disbursement is deemed to be a Revolving Loan hereunder, Borrowers’ obligation to pay the amount of such Letter of Credit Disbursement to Issuing Bank shall be automatically converted into an obligation to pay the resulting Revolving
Loan. Promptly following receipt by Administrative Agent of any payment from Borrowers pursuant to this paragraph, Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Revolving Lenders have made payments
pursuant to Section 2.11(e) to reimburse Issuing Bank, then to such Revolving Lenders and Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. 

(e) Promptly following receipt of a notice of a Letter of Credit Disbursement pursuant to Section 2.11(d), each Revolving Lender
agrees to fund its Pro Rata Share of any Revolving 

  
 20 

 Loan deemed made pursuant to Section 2.11(d) on the same terms and conditions as if Borrowers had
requested the amount thereof as a Revolving Loan and Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment, renewal, or extension of a
Letter of Credit) and without any further action on the part of Issuing Bank or the Revolving Lenders, Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have granted to each Revolving Lender, and each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to have purchased, a
participation in each Letter of Credit issued by Issuing Bank, in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of such Letter of Credit, and each such Revolving Lender agrees to pay to Administrative Agent, for the account of Issuing Bank, such Revolving
Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any Letter of Credit Disbursement made by Issuing Bank under the applicable Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to
pay to Administrative Agent, for the account of Issuing Bank, such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of each Letter of Credit Disbursement made by Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by Borrowers on the date due as provided in
Section 2.11(d), or of any reimbursement payment that is required to be refunded (or that Administrative Agent or Issuing Bank elects, based upon the advice of counsel, to refund) to Borrowers for any reason. Each Revolving Lender
acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to deliver to Administrative Agent, for the account of Issuing Bank, an amount equal to its respective Pro Rata Share of each Letter of Credit Disbursement pursuant to this
Section 2.11(e) shall be absolute and unconditional and such remittance shall be made notwithstanding the occurrence or continuation of an Event of Default or Default or the failure to satisfy any condition set forth in
Section 3. If any such Revolving Lender fails to make available to Administrative Agent the amount of such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of a Letter of Credit Disbursement as provided in this Section, such Revolving Lender shall
be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender and Administrative Agent (for the account of Issuing Bank) shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Revolving Lender together with interest thereon at the Defaulting Lender Rate until paid in
full. 
 (f) Each Borrower agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless each member of the Lender Group (including Issuing Bank and its
branches, Affiliates, and correspondents) and each such Person’s respective directors, officers, employees, attorneys and agents (each, including Issuing Bank, a “Letter of Credit Related Person”) (to the fullest extent
permitted by law) from and against any and all claims, demands, suits, actions, investigations, proceedings, liabilities, fines, costs, penalties, and damages, and all reasonable fees and disbursements of attorneys, experts, or consultants and all
other costs and expenses actually incurred in connection therewith or in connection with the enforcement of this indemnification (as and when they are incurred and irrespective of whether suit is brought), which may be incurred by or awarded against
any such Letter of Credit Related Person (other than Taxes, which shall be governed by Section 16) (the “Letter of Credit Indemnified Costs”), and which arise out of or in connection with, or as a result of: 

(i) any Letter of Credit or any pre-advice of its issuance; 

(ii) any transfer, sale, delivery, surrender or endorsement of any Drawing Document at any time(s) held by any such Letter of Credit Related
Person in connection with any Letter of Credit; 
 (iii) any action or proceeding arising out of, or in connection with, any Letter of
Credit (whether administrative, judicial or in connection with arbitration), including any action or proceeding to compel or restrain any presentation or payment under any Letter of Credit, or for the wrongful dishonor of, or honoring a presentation
under, any Letter of Credit; 

  
 21 

 (iv) any independent undertakings issued by the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit; 

(v) any unauthorized instruction or request made to Issuing Bank in connection with any Letter of Credit or requested Letter of Credit or
error in computer or electronic transmission; 
 (vi) an adviser, confirmer or other nominated person seeking to be reimbursed, indemnified
or compensated; 
 (vii) any third party seeking to enforce the rights of an applicant, beneficiary, nominated person, transferee, assignee
of Letter of Credit proceeds or holder of an instrument or document; 
 (viii) the fraud, forgery or illegal action of parties other than
the Letter of Credit Related Person; 
 (ix) Issuing Bank’s performance of the obligations of a confirming institution or entity that
wrongfully dishonors a confirmation; or 
 (x) the acts or omissions, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de
facto governmental or regulatory authority or cause or event beyond the control of the Letter of Credit Related Person; 
 in each case, including that
resulting from the Letter of Credit Related Person’s own negligence; provided, however, that such indemnity shall not be available to any Letter of Credit Related Person claiming indemnification under
clauses (i) through (x) above to the extent that such Letter of Credit Indemnified Costs may be finally determined in a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted directly from
the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Letter of Credit Related Person claiming indemnity. Borrowers hereby agree to pay the Letter of Credit Related Person claiming indemnity on demand from time to time all amounts owing under this
Section 2.11(f). If and to the extent that the obligations of Borrowers under this Section 2.11(f) are unenforceable for any reason, Borrowers agree to make the maximum contribution to the Letter of Credit Indemnified Costs
permissible under applicable law. This indemnification provision shall survive termination of this Agreement and all Letters of Credit. 

(g) The liability of Issuing Bank (or any other Letter of Credit Related Person) under, in connection with or arising out of any Letter of
Credit (or pre-advice), regardless of the form or legal grounds of the action or proceeding, shall be limited to direct damages suffered by Borrowers that are caused directly by Issuing Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct in
(i) honoring a presentation under a Letter of Credit that on its face does not at least substantially comply with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit, (ii) failing to honor a presentation under a Letter of Credit that
strictly complies with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit or (iii) retaining Drawing Documents presented under a Letter of Credit. Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have acted with due diligence and reasonable care if Issuing
Bank’s conduct is in accordance with Standard Letter of Credit 

  
 22 

 
Practice or in accordance with this Agreement. Borrowers’ aggregate remedies against Issuing Bank and any Letter of Credit Related Person for wrongfully honoring a presentation under any
Letter of Credit or wrongfully retaining honored Drawing Documents shall in no event exceed the aggregate amount paid by Borrowers to Issuing Bank in respect of the honored presentation in connection with such Letter of Credit under
Section 2.11(d), plus interest at the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans hereunder. Borrowers shall take action to avoid and mitigate the amount of any damages claimed against Issuing Bank or any other Letter of Credit
Related Person, including by enforcing its rights against the beneficiaries of the Letters of Credit. Any claim by Borrowers under or in connection with any Letter of Credit shall be reduced by an amount equal to the sum of (x) the amount (if
any) saved by Borrowers as a result of the breach or alleged wrongful conduct complained of; and (y) the amount (if any) of the loss that would have been avoided had Borrowers taken all reasonable steps to mitigate any loss, and in case of a
claim of wrongful dishonor, by specifically and timely authorizing Issuing Bank to effect a cure. 
 (h) Borrowers are responsible for
preparing or approving the final text of the Letter of Credit as issued by Issuing Bank, irrespective of any assistance Issuing Bank may provide such as drafting or recommending text or by Issuing Bank’s use or refusal to use text submitted by
Borrowers. Borrowers are solely responsible for the suitability of the Letter of Credit for Borrowers’ purposes. With respect to any Letter of Credit containing an “automatic amendment” to extend the expiration date of such Letter of
Credit, Issuing Bank, in its sole and absolute discretion, may give notice of nonrenewal of such Letter of Credit and, if Borrowers do not at any time want such Letter of Credit to be renewed, Borrowers will so notify Administrative Agent and
Issuing Bank at least 15 calendar days before Issuing Bank is required to notify the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or any advising bank of such nonrenewal pursuant to the terms of such Letter of Credit. 

(i) Borrowers’ reimbursement and payment obligations under this Section 2.11 are absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and
shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever, including: 
 (i)
any lack of validity, enforceability or legal effect of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement or any term or provision therein or herein; 

(ii) payment against presentation of any draft, demand or claim for payment under any Drawing Document that does not comply in whole or in
part with the terms of the applicable Letter of Credit or which proves to be fraudulent, forged or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, or which is signed, issued or presented by a Person or a
transferee of such Person purporting to be a successor or transferee of the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit; 
 (iii) Issuing Bank or
any of its branches or Affiliates being the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit; 
 (iv) Issuing Bank or any correspondent honoring a
drawing against a Drawing Document up to the amount available under any Letter of Credit even if such Drawing Document claims an amount in excess of the amount available under the Letter of Credit; 

  
 23 

 (v) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right that any Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries may have at any time against any beneficiary, any assignee of proceeds, Issuing Bank or any other Person; 
 (vi) any other
event, circumstance or conduct whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing that might, but for this Section 2.11(i), constitute a legal or equitable defense to or discharge of, or provide a right of set-off against, any
Borrower’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ reimbursement and other payment obligations and liabilities, arising under, or in connection with, any Letter of Credit, whether against Issuing Bank, the beneficiary or any other Person; or 

(vii) the fact that any Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; 

provided, however, that subject to Section 2.11(g) above, the foregoing shall not release Issuing Bank from such liability to
Borrowers as may be finally determined in a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction against Issuing Bank following reimbursement or payment of the obligations and liabilities, including reimbursement and other payment
obligations, of Borrowers to Issuing Bank arising under, or in connection with, this Section 2.11 or any Letter of Credit. 

(j) Without limiting any other provision of this Agreement, Issuing Bank and each other Letter of Credit Related Person (if applicable) shall
not be responsible to Borrowers for, and Issuing Bank’s rights and remedies against Borrowers and the obligation of Borrowers to reimburse Issuing Bank for each drawing under each Letter of Credit shall not be impaired by: 

(i) honor of a presentation under any Letter of Credit that on its face substantially complies with the terms and conditions of such Letter
of Credit, even if the Letter of Credit requires strict compliance by the beneficiary; 
 (ii) honor of a presentation of any Drawing
Document that appears on its face to have been signed, presented or issued (A) by any purported successor or transferee of any beneficiary or other Person required to sign, present or issue such Drawing Document or (B) under a new name of
the beneficiary; 
 (iii) acceptance as a draft of any written or electronic demand or request for payment under a Letter of Credit, even
if nonnegotiable or not in the form of a draft or notwithstanding any requirement that such draft, demand or request bear any or adequate reference to the Letter of Credit; 

(iv) the identity or authority of any presenter or signer of any Drawing Document or the form, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any
Drawing Document (other than Issuing Bank’s determination that such Drawing Document appears on its face substantially to comply with the terms and conditions of the Letter of Credit); 

(v) acting upon any instruction or request relative to a Letter of Credit or requested Letter of Credit that Issuing Bank in good faith
believes to have been given by a Person authorized to give such instruction or request; 

  
 24 

 (vi) any errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any message,
advice or document (regardless of how sent or transmitted) or for errors in interpretation of technical terms or in translation or any delay in giving or failing to give notice to Borrowers; 

(vii) any acts, omissions or fraud by, or the insolvency of, any beneficiary, any nominated person or entity or any other Person or any
breach of contract between any beneficiary and any Borrower or any of the parties to the underlying transaction to which the Letter of Credit relates; 

(viii) assertion or waiver of any provision of the ISP or UCP that primarily benefits an issuer of a letter of credit, including any
requirement that any Drawing Document be presented to it at a particular hour or place; 
 (ix) payment to any paying or negotiating bank
(designated or permitted by the terms of the applicable Letter of Credit) claiming that it rightfully honored or is entitled to reimbursement or indemnity under Standard Letter of Credit Practice applicable to it; 

(x) acting or failing to act as required or permitted under Standard Letter of Credit Practice applicable to where Issuing Bank has issued,
confirmed, advised or negotiated such Letter of Credit, as the case may be; 
 (xi) honor of a presentation after the expiration date of
any Letter of Credit notwithstanding that a presentation was made prior to such expiration date and dishonored by Issuing Bank if subsequently Issuing Bank or any court or other finder of fact determines such presentation should have been honored;

 (xii) dishonor of any presentation that does not strictly comply or that is fraudulent, forged or otherwise not entitled to honor; or

 (xiii) honor of a presentation that is subsequently determined by Issuing Bank to have been made in violation of international, federal,
state or local restrictions on the transaction of business with certain prohibited Persons. 
 (k) Borrowers shall pay immediately upon
demand to Administrative Agent for the account of Issuing Bank as non-refundable fees, commissions, and charges (it being acknowledged and agreed that any charging of such fees, commissions, and charges to the Loan Account pursuant to the provisions
of Section 2.6(d) shall be deemed to constitute a demand for payment thereof for the purposes of this Section 2.11(k)): (i) a fronting fee which shall be imposed by Issuing Bank upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit
of 0.125% per annum of the face amount thereof, plus (ii) any and all other customary commissions, fees and charges then in effect imposed by, and any and all expenses incurred by, Issuing Bank, or by any adviser, confirming
institution or entity or other nominated person, relating to Letters of Credit, at the time of issuance of any Letter of Credit and upon the occurrence of any other activity with respect to any Letter of Credit (including transfers, assignments of
proceeds, amendments, drawings, renewals or cancellations). 
 (l) If by reason of (x) any Change in Law, or (y) compliance by
Issuing Bank or any other member of the Lender Group with any direction, request, or requirement (irrespective of whether having the force of law) of any Governmental Authority or monetary authority including, Regulation D of the Board of Governors
as from time to time in effect (and any successor thereto): 
 (i) any reserve, deposit, or similar requirement is or shall be imposed or
modified in respect of any Letter of Credit issued or caused to be issued hereunder or hereby, or 

  
 25 

 (ii) there shall be imposed on Issuing Bank or any other member of the Lender Group any other
condition regarding any Letter of Credit, 
 and the result of the foregoing is to increase, directly or indirectly, the cost to Issuing Bank or any other
member of the Lender Group of issuing, making, participating in, or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount receivable in respect thereof, then, and in any such case, Administrative Agent may, at any time within a reasonable period
after the additional cost is incurred or the amount received is reduced, notify Borrowers, and Borrowers shall pay within 30 days after demand therefor, such amounts as Administrative Agent may specify to be necessary to compensate Issuing Bank or
any other member of the Lender Group for such additional cost or reduced receipt, together with interest on such amount from the date of such demand until payment in full thereof at the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans hereunder;
provided, that (A) Borrowers shall not be required to provide any compensation pursuant to this Section 2.11(l) for any such amounts incurred more than 180 days prior to the date on which the demand for payment of such
amounts is first made to Borrowers, and (B) if an event or circumstance giving rise to such amounts is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. The
determination by Administrative Agent of any amount due pursuant to this Section 2.11(l), as set forth in a certificate setting forth the calculation thereof in reasonable detail, shall, in the absence of manifest or demonstrable error,
be final and conclusive and binding on all of the parties hereto. 
 (m) Unless otherwise expressly agreed by Issuing Bank and Borrowers
when a Letter of Credit is issued (including any such agreement applicable to an Existing Letter of Credit), (i) the rules of the ISP and the UCP shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit, and (ii) the rules of the UCP shall apply to
each commercial Letter of Credit. 
 (n) In the event of a direct conflict between the provisions of this Section 2.11 and any
provision contained in any Issuer Document, it is the intention of the parties hereto that such provisions be read together and construed, to the fullest extent possible, to be in concert with each other. In the event of any actual, irreconcilable
conflict that cannot be resolved as aforesaid, the terms and provisions of this Section 2.11 shall control and govern. 
 2.12
LIBOR Option. 
 (a) Interest and Interest Payment Dates. In lieu of having interest charged at the rate based upon the
Base Rate, Borrowers shall have the option, subject to Section 2.12(b) below (the “LIBOR Option”) to have interest on all or a portion of the Revolving Loans be charged (whether at the time when made (unless otherwise
provided herein), upon conversion from a Base Rate Loan to a LIBOR Rate Loan, or upon continuation of a LIBOR Rate Loan as a LIBOR Rate Loan) at a rate of interest based upon the LIBOR Rate. Interest on LIBOR Rate Loans shall be payable on the
earliest of (i) the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto; provided, that, subject to the following clauses (ii) and (iii), in the case of any Interest Period greater than 3 months in duration,
interest shall be payable at 3-month intervals after the commencement of the applicable Interest Period and on the last day of such Interest Period), (ii) the date on which all or any portion of the
Obligations are accelerated pursuant to the terms hereof, or (iii) the date on which this Agreement is terminated pursuant to the terms hereof. On the last 

  
 26 

 
day of each applicable Interest Period, unless Borrowers have properly exercised the LIBOR Option with respect thereto, the interest rate applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loan automatically shall
convert to the rate of interest then applicable to Base Rate Loans of the same type hereunder. At any time that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, at the written election of the Required Lenders, Borrowers no longer shall have the
option to request that Revolving Loans bear interest at a rate based upon the LIBOR Rate. 
 (b) LIBOR Election. 

(i) Borrowers may, at any time and from time to time, so long as Borrowers have not received a notice from Administrative Agent (which notice
Administrative Agent may elect to give or not give in its discretion unless Administrative Agent is directed to give such notice by the Required Lenders, in which case, it shall give the notice to Borrowers), after the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, to terminate the right of Borrowers to exercise the LIBOR Option during the continuance of such Event of Default, elect to exercise the LIBOR Option by notifying Administrative Agent prior to noon at least
3 Business Days prior to the commencement of the proposed Interest Period (the “LIBOR Deadline”); provided, that Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to accept as timely exercises of the LIBOR Option
that are received later than noon on the applicable Business Day. Notice of Borrowers’ election of the LIBOR Option for a permitted portion of the Revolving Loans and an Interest Period pursuant to this Section shall be made by delivery to
Administrative Agent of a LIBOR Notice received by Administrative Agent before the LIBOR Deadline, or by telephonic notice received by Administrative Agent before the LIBOR Deadline (to be confirmed by delivery to Administrative Agent of a LIBOR
Notice received by Administrative Agent prior to 5:00 p.m. on the same day). Promptly upon its receipt of each such LIBOR Notice, Administrative Agent shall provide a copy thereof to each of the affected Lenders. 

(ii) Each LIBOR Notice shall be irrevocable and binding on Borrowers. In connection with each LIBOR Rate Loan, each Borrower shall indemnify,
defend, and hold Administrative Agent and the Lenders harmless against any loss, cost, or expense actually incurred by Administrative Agent or any Lender as a result of (A) the payment of any principal of any LIBOR Rate Loan other than on the
last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (B) the conversion of any LIBOR Rate Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, or (C) the failure to borrow,
convert, or continue any LIBOR Rate Loan on the date specified in any LIBOR Notice delivered pursuant hereto (such losses, costs, or expenses, “Funding Losses”). A certificate of Administrative Agent or a Lender delivered to
Borrowers setting forth in reasonable detail any amount or amounts that Administrative Agent or such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Borrowers shall pay such amount
to Administrative Agent or the Lender, as applicable, within 30 days of the date of its receipt of such certificate. If a payment of a LIBOR Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period would result in a Funding Loss,
Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion at the request of Borrowers, hold the amount of such payment as cash collateral in support of the Obligations until the last day of such Interest Period and apply such amounts to the payment of the
applicable LIBOR Rate Loan on such last day, it being agreed that Administrative Agent has no obligation to so defer the application of payments to any LIBOR Rate Loan and that, in the event that Administrative Agent does not defer such application,
Borrowers shall be obligated to pay any resulting Funding Losses. 

  
 27 

 (iii) Unless Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, agrees otherwise, Borrowers shall
have not more than 8 LIBOR Rate Loans in effect at any given time. Borrowers may only exercise the LIBOR Option for proposed LIBOR Rate Loans of at least $1,000,000. 

(c) Conversion. Borrowers may convert LIBOR Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans at any time; provided, that in the event that LIBOR
Rate Loans are converted or prepaid on any date that is not the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, including as a result of any prepayment through the required application by Administrative Agent of any payments or proceeds of
Collateral in accordance with Section 2.4(b) or for any other reason, including early termination of the term of this Agreement or acceleration of all or any portion of the Obligations pursuant to the terms hereof, each Borrower shall
indemnify, defend, and hold Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their Participants harmless against any and all Funding Losses in accordance with Section 2.12(b)(ii). 

(d) Special Provisions Applicable to LIBOR Rate. 

(i) The LIBOR Rate may be adjusted by Administrative Agent with respect to any Lender on a prospective basis to take into account any
additional or increased costs to such Lender of maintaining or obtaining any eurodollar deposits or increased costs, in each case, due to changes in applicable law occurring subsequent to the commencement of the then applicable Interest Period,
including any Changes in Law (including any changes in tax laws (except changes of general applicability in corporate income tax laws)) and changes in the reserve requirements imposed by the Board of Governors, which additional or increased costs
would increase the cost of funding or maintaining loans bearing interest at the LIBOR Rate. In any such event, the affected Lender shall give Borrowers and Administrative Agent notice of such a determination and adjustment and Administrative Agent
promptly shall transmit the notice to each other Lender and, upon its receipt of the notice from the affected Lender, Borrowers may, by notice to such affected Lender (A) require such Lender to furnish to Borrowers a statement setting forth in
reasonable detail the basis for adjusting such LIBOR Rate and the method for determining the amount of such adjustment, or (B) repay the LIBOR Rate Loans of such Lender with respect to which such adjustment is made (together with any amounts
due under Section 2.12(b)(ii)). 
 (ii) In the event that any change in market conditions or any Change in Law shall at any
time after the date hereof, in the reasonable opinion of any Lender, make it unlawful or impractical for such Lender to fund or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans or to continue such funding or maintaining, or to determine or charge interest rates at the
LIBOR Rate, such Lender shall give notice of such changed circumstances to Administrative Agent and Borrowers and Administrative Agent promptly shall transmit the notice to each other Lender and (y) in the case of any LIBOR Rate Loans of such
Lender that are outstanding, the date specified in such Lender’s notice shall be deemed to be the last day of the Interest Period of such LIBOR Rate Loans, and interest upon the LIBOR Rate Loans of such Lender thereafter shall accrue interest
at the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans, and (z) Borrowers shall not be entitled to elect the LIBOR Option until such Lender determines that it would no longer be unlawful or impractical to do so. 

(e) No Requirement of Matched Funding. Anything to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding, neither Administrative Agent, nor any
Lender, nor any of their Participants, is required actually to acquire eurodollar deposits to fund or otherwise match fund any Obligation as to which interest accrues at the LIBOR Rate. 

  
 28 

 2.13 Capital Requirements. 

(a) If, after the date hereof, Issuing Bank or any Lender determines that (i) any Change in Law regarding capital, liquidity, or reserve
requirements for banks or bank holding companies, or (ii) compliance by Issuing Bank or such Lender, or their respective parent bank holding companies, with any guideline, request or directive of any Governmental Authority regarding capital
adequacy (whether or not having the force of law), has the effect of reducing the return on Issuing Bank’s, such Lender’s, or such holding companies’ capital as a consequence of Issuing Bank’s or such Lender’s commitments
hereunder to a level below that which Issuing Bank, such Lender, or such holding companies could have achieved but for such Change in Law or compliance (taking into consideration Issuing Bank’s, such Lender’s, or such holding
companies’ then existing policies with respect to capital adequacy and assuming the full utilization of such entity’s capital) by any amount deemed by Issuing Bank or such Lender to be material, then Issuing Bank or such Lender may notify
Borrowers and Administrative Agent thereof. Following receipt of such notice, Borrowers agree to pay Issuing Bank or such Lender on demand the amount of such reduction of return of capital as and when such reduction is determined, payable within 30
days after presentation by Issuing Bank or such Lender of a statement in the amount and setting forth in reasonable detail Issuing Bank’s or such Lender’s calculation thereof and the assumptions upon which such calculation was based (which
statement shall be deemed true and correct absent manifest error). In determining such amount, Issuing Bank or such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. Failure or delay on the part of Issuing Bank or any Lender to demand
compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of Issuing Bank’s or such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that Borrowers shall not be required to compensate Issuing Bank or a Lender
pursuant to this Section for any reductions in return incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that Issuing Bank or such Lender notifies Borrowers of such Change in Law giving rise to such reductions and of such Lender’s intention to
claim compensation therefor; provided further that if such claim arises by reason of the Change in Law that is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect
thereof. 
 (b) If Issuing Bank or any Lender requests additional or increased costs referred to in Section 2.11(l) or
Section 2.12(d)(i) or amounts under Section 2.13(a) or sends a notice under Section 2.12(d)(ii) relative to changed circumstances (such Issuing Bank or Lender, an “Affected Lender”), then such
Affected Lender shall use reasonable efforts to promptly designate a different one of its lending offices or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices or branches, if (i) in the reasonable judgment of such
Affected Lender, such designation or assignment would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.11(l), Section 2.12(d)(i), or Section 2.13(a), as applicable, or would eliminate the illegality or
impracticality of funding or maintaining LIBOR Rate Loans and (ii) in the reasonable judgment of such Affected Lender, such designation or assignment would not subject it to any material unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be
materially disadvantageous to it. Borrowers agree to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by such Affected Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. If, after such reasonable efforts, such Affected Lender
does not so designate a different one of its lending offices or assign its rights to another of its offices or branches so as to eliminate Borrowers’ obligation to pay any future amounts to such Affected Lender pursuant to
Section 2.11(l), Section 2.12(d)(i), or Section 2.13(a), as applicable, or to enable Borrowers to obtain LIBOR Rate Loans, then Borrowers (without prejudice to any amounts then due to such Affected Lender under
Section 2.11(l), Section 2.12(d)(i), or Section 2.13(a), as applicable) may, unless prior to the effective date of any such assignment the Affected 

  
 29 

 
Lender withdraws its request for such additional amounts under Section 2.11(l), Section 2.12(d)(i), or Section 2.13(a), as applicable, or indicates that it is
no longer unlawful or impractical to fund or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans, may designate a different Issuing Bank or substitute a Lender, in each case, reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent to purchase the Obligations owed to such Affected
Lender and such Affected Lender’s commitments hereunder (a “Replacement Lender”), and if such Replacement Lender agrees to such purchase, such Affected Lender shall assign to the Replacement Lender its Obligations and
commitments, and upon such purchase by the Replacement Lender, which such Replacement Lender shall be deemed to be “Issuing Bank” or a “Lender” (as the case may be) for purposes of this Agreement and such Affected Lender shall
cease to be “Issuing Bank” or a “Lender” (as the case may be) for purposes of this Agreement. 
 (c) Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, the protection of Sections 2.11(l), 2.12(d), and 2.13 shall be available to Issuing Bank and each Lender (as applicable) regardless of any possible contention of the invalidity or
inapplicability of the law, rule, regulation, judicial ruling, judgment, guideline, treaty or other change or condition which shall have occurred or been imposed, so long as it shall be customary for issuing banks or lenders affected thereby to
comply therewith. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, neither Issuing Bank nor any Lender shall demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.13 if it shall not at the time be the general policy or practice of Issuing Bank or
such Lender (as the case may be) to demand such compensation in similar circumstances under comparable provisions of other credit agreements, if any. 

2.14 [Reserved]. 
 2.15
Joint and Several Liability of Borrowers. 
 (a) Each Borrower is accepting joint and several liability hereunder and under the
other Loan Documents in consideration of the financial accommodations to be provided by the Lender Group under this Agreement, for the mutual benefit, directly and indirectly, of each Borrower and in consideration of the undertakings of the other
Borrowers to accept joint and several liability for the Obligations. 
 (b) Each Borrower, jointly and severally, hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally accepts, not merely as a surety but also as a co-debtor, joint and several liability with the other Borrowers, with respect to the payment and performance of all of the Obligations (including any Obligations arising under this
Section 2.15), it being the intention of the parties hereto that all the Obligations shall be the joint and several obligations of each Borrower without preferences or distinction among them. 

(c) If and to the extent that any Borrower shall fail to make any payment with respect to any of the Obligations as and when due or to perform
any of the Obligations in accordance with the terms thereof, then in each such event the other Borrowers will make such payment with respect to, or perform, such Obligation until such time as all of the Obligations are paid in full. 

(d) The Obligations of each Borrower under the provisions of this Section 2.15 constitute the absolute and unconditional, full
recourse Obligations of each Borrower enforceable against each Borrower to the full extent of its properties and assets, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the provisions of this Agreement (other than this
Section 2.15(d)) or any other circumstances whatsoever. 

  
 30 

 (e) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, each Borrower hereby waives notice
of acceptance of its joint and several liability, notice of any Revolving Loans or Letters of Credit issued under or pursuant to this Agreement, notice of the occurrence of any Default, Event of Default, or of any demand for any payment under this
Agreement, notice of any action at any time taken or omitted by Administrative Agent or Lenders under or in respect of any of the Obligations, any requirement of diligence or to mitigate damages and, generally, to the extent permitted by applicable
law, all demands, notices and other formalities of every kind in connection with this Agreement (except as otherwise provided in this Agreement). Each Borrower hereby assents to, and waives notice of, any extension or postponement of the time for
the payment of any of the Obligations, the acceptance of any payment of any of the Obligations, the acceptance of any partial payment thereon, any waiver, consent or other action or acquiescence by Administrative Agent or Lenders at any time or
times in respect of any default by any Borrower in the performance or satisfaction of any term, covenant, condition or provision of this Agreement, any and all other indulgences whatsoever by Administrative Agent or Lenders in respect of any of the
Obligations, and the taking, addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, at any time or times, of any security for any of the Obligations or the addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, of any Borrower. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, each Borrower assents to any other action or delay in acting or failure to act on the part of any Administrative Agent or Lender with respect to the failure by any Borrower to comply with any of its respective
Obligations, including, without limitation, any failure strictly or diligently to assert any right or to pursue any remedy or to comply fully with applicable laws or regulations thereunder, which might, but for the provisions of this
Section 2.15 afford grounds for terminating, discharging or relieving any Borrower, in whole or in part, from any of its Obligations under this Section 2.15, it being the intention of each Borrower that, so long as any of the
Obligations hereunder remain unsatisfied, the Obligations of each Borrower under this Section 2.15 shall not be discharged except by performance and then only to the extent of such performance. The Obligations of each Borrower under this
Section 2.15 shall not be diminished or rendered unenforceable by any winding up, reorganization, arrangement, liquidation, reconstruction or similar proceeding with respect to any other Borrower or any Administrative Agent or Lender.

 (f) Each Borrower represents and warrants to Administrative Agent and Lenders that such Borrower is currently informed of the financial
condition of Borrowers and of all other circumstances that a diligent inquiry would reveal and which bear upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations. Each Borrower further represents and warrants to Administrative Agent and Lenders that such
Borrower has read and understands the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents. Each Borrower hereby covenants that such Borrower will continue to keep informed of Borrowers’ financial condition and of all other circumstances that bear upon
the risk of nonpayment or nonperformance of the Obligations. 
 (g) The provisions of this Section 2.15 are made for the benefit
of Administrative Agent, each member of the Lender Group, each Bank Product Provider, and their respective successors and assigns, and may be enforced by it or them from time to time against any or all Borrowers as often as occasion therefor may
arise and without requirement on the part of Administrative Agent, any member of the Lender Group, any Bank Product Provider, or any of their successors or assigns first to marshal any of its or their claims or to exercise any of its or their rights
against any Borrower or to exhaust any remedies available to it or them against any Borrower or to resort to any other source or means of obtaining payment of any of the Obligations hereunder or to elect any other remedy. The provisions of this
Section 2.15 shall remain in effect until all of the Obligations shall have been paid in full or otherwise 

  
 31 

 
fully satisfied. If at any time, any payment, or any part thereof, made in respect of any of the Obligations, is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by Administrative Agent or any
Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower, or otherwise, the provisions of this Section 2.15 will forthwith be reinstated in effect, as though such payment had not been made. 

(h) Each Borrower hereby agrees that it will not enforce any of its rights of contribution or subrogation against any other Borrower with
respect to any liability incurred by it hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, any payments made by it to Administrative Agent or Lenders with respect to any of the Obligations or any collateral security therefor until such time as all
of the Obligations have been paid in full in cash. Any claim which any Borrower may have against any other Borrower with respect to any payments to any Administrative Agent or any member of the Lender Group hereunder or under any of the Bank Product
Agreements are hereby expressly made subordinate and junior in right of payment, without limitation as to any increases in the Obligations arising hereunder or thereunder, to the prior payment in full in cash of the Obligations and, in the event of
any insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership, liquidation, reorganization or other similar proceeding under the laws of any jurisdiction relating to any Borrower, its debts or its assets, whether voluntary or involuntary, all such Obligations shall be

(except that such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representations and warranties that already are qualified or modified by materiality in the text thereof) as of such earlier date); 

(b) (i) as of the Closing Date, no Default or Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in clause (c) of
Section 8 (or a related Default) not in respect of the Specified Representations or the “Specified Representations” under and as defined in the Receivables Facility Credit Agreement) shall have occurred and be continuing, nor
shall either result from the making of any extension of credit to be made on the Closing Date; and (ii) at and as of the date of each extension of credit made after the Closing Date, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be

3.3 Maturity. This Agreement shall continue in full force and effect for a term ending on the Maturity Date. 

3.4 Effect of Maturity. On the Maturity Date, all commitments of the Lender Group to provide additional credit hereunder shall
automatically be terminated and all of the Obligations immediately shall become due and payable without notice or demand and Borrowers shall be required to repay all of the Obligations in full. No termination of the obligations of the Lender Group
(other than payment in full of the Obligations and termination of the Commitments) shall relieve or discharge any Loan Party of its duties, obligations, or covenants hereunder or under any other Loan Document and Administrative Agent’s Liens in
the Collateral shall continue to secure the Obligations and shall remain in effect until all Obligations have been paid in full and the Commitments have been terminated. When all of the Obligations have been paid in full and the Lender Group’s
obligations to provide additional credit under the Loan Documents have been terminated irrevocably, Administrative Agent will, at Borrowers’ sole expense, execute and deliver any termination statements, lien releases, discharges of security
interests, and other similar discharge or release documents (and, if applicable, in recordable form) as are reasonably necessary to release, as of record, Administrative Agent’s Liens and all notices of security interests and liens previously
filed by Administrative Agent. 
 3.5 Early Termination by Borrowers. Borrowers have the option, at any time upon 10 Business
Days prior written notice to Administrative Agent, to terminate this Agreement and terminate the Commitments hereunder by repaying to Administrative Agent all of the Obligations in full. The foregoing

  
 37 

 
notwithstanding, (a) Borrowers may rescind termination notices relative to proposed payments in full of the Obligations with the proceeds of third-party Indebtedness if the closing for such
issuance or incurrence does not happen on or before the date of the proposed termination (in which case, a new notice shall be required to be sent in connection with any subsequent termination), and (b) Borrowers may extend the date of
termination at any time with the consent of Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). 
 4. REPRESENTATIONS AND
WARRANTIES. 
 In order to induce the Lender Group to enter into this Agreement, each Borrower makes the following representations and
warranties to the Lender Group which shall be true, correct, and complete, in all material respects (except that such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representations and warranties that already are qualified or modified by
materiality in the text thereof), as of the Closing Date, and shall be true, correct, and complete, in all material respects (except that such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representations and warranties that already are
qualified or modified by materiality in the text thereof), as of the date of the making of each Revolving Loan (or other extension of credit) made thereafter, as though made on and as of the date of such Revolving Loan (or other extension of credit)
(except to the extent that such representations and warranties relate solely to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects (except that such materiality qualifier shall not
be applicable to any representations and warranties that already are qualified or modified by materiality in the text thereof) as of such earlier date) and such representations and warranties shall survive the execution and delivery of this

performance (or filing or recording, as the case may be) by AXE, Anixter, and each Subsidiary of Anixter of each Related Transactions Document to which such Person is a party and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby have been
duly authorized by all necessary organizational actions and no other organizational proceedings on the part of any such Person are necessary to consummate the such transactions. Each Related Transactions Document to which AXE, Anixter, or a
Subsidiary of Anixter is a party has been duly executed and delivered by such Person and constitutes a legal, valid, and binding obligation of such Person, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law. 

  
 38 

 4.3 Governmental Approvals; No Conflicts. The execution, delivery, and performance
by each of AXE, Anixter, and each Subsidiary of Anixter of each Related Transactions Document to which it is party and each of the transactions contemplated thereby, do not and will not (a) except for any filings to perfect the security

Administrative Agent and the Lenders were prepared in conformity with GAAP (except as otherwise noted therein) and fairly present in all material respects the financial position of Anixter or the consolidated financial position of Anixter and such
Subsidiaries, as the case may be, as at the respective dates thereof and the results of operations and changes in cash flows for each of the periods covered thereby, subject, in the case of any unaudited interim financial statements, to changes

property that is owned or leased by Anixter or any of its Subsidiaries and that (i) is a chief executive office of such Person, (ii) maintains such Person’s books and records, and/or (iii) maintains Inventory with a value of
$5,000,000 or greater at any time. Each of such leases and subleases is valid and enforceable in accordance with its terms and is in full force and effect, and no default by any party to any such lease or sublease exists which could reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each of AXE, Anixter, and each Subsidiary of Anixter has good title to all of its personal property, except for imperfections of title (including Liens to the extent permitted by Section 6.2)
which in the aggregate 

  
 39 

 
could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. All such assets are free and clear of all Liens, except as otherwise specifically permitted by the terms and provisions of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Substantially all of the assets and properties owned by, leased to, or used by Anixter or any Domestic Subsidiary of Anixter are in good repair, working order and condition, excepting ordinary wear and tear
and are free and clear of any known defects except such defects as do not substantially interfere with the continued use thereof in the conduct of normal operations.

the Related Transactions which are material to its financial condition, business, operations, assets and prospects, individually or taken as a whole. A correct and complete list of all trademarks, tradenames, copyrights, and patents owned by Anixter
or any other Loan Party referred to in the preceding sentence, as of the date of this Agreement, is set forth on Schedule 4.5. The use of such intellectual property by Anixter and its Subsidiaries does not infringe in any material
respect upon the rights of any other Person, subject to such claims and infringements the existence of which do not have or could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

4.6 Litigation 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
any Loan Party, threatened in writing against or affecting any of AXE, Anixter, or any Subsidiary (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 challenges the enforceability of any of the Related Transactions Documents. 

(b) None of AXE, Anixter, and the Subsidiaries of Anixter are subject to or in default with respect to any final judgment, writ, injunction,
decree, order, rule or regulation of any court or Governmental Authority which has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

(c) Except for the Disclosed Matters and except as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (i) each of the
operations of AXE, Anixter, and the Subsidiaries of Anixter comply with all applicable Environmental Laws and all Requirements of Law (relating to health and safety matters); (ii) each of AXE, Anixter, and the Subsidiaries of Anixter has
obtained all Permits (as such term is used in the definition of “Environmental Laws”) necessary for its operations, all such Permits are in good standing and AXE, Anixter and the Subsidiaries of Anixter are in compliance with all terms and
conditions of such Permits; and (iii)(A) neither AXE, Anixter, nor any Subsidiary of Anixter, nor any of their present Property or operations and (B) to the knowledge of Anixter, none of AXE’s, Anixter’s, or any Subsidiary’s
previously owned Property or past operations is subject to any Remedial Action or other liabilities and costs arising from the Release or threatened Release of a Hazardous Material into the environment. 

4.7 Compliance with Laws and Agreements; No Default. Except where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, has
not resulted in and could not reasonably be expected to result in a 

  
 40 

 
Material Adverse Effect, each of AXE, Anixter, and the Subsidiaries of Anixter is in compliance with (i) all Requirements of Law applicable to it or its business and (ii) all
indentures, agreements, and other instruments binding upon it or its property. No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. 

4.8 Investment Company Status. No Loan Party or any Subsidiary is an “investment company” as defined in, or subject to
regulation under, the Investment Company Act of 1940. 
 4.9 Taxes. Each of AXE, Anixter, and the Subsidiaries of Anixter has
timely filed or caused to be filed all U.S. federal income and other material Tax returns and reports required to have been filed and has paid or caused to be paid all Taxes required to have been paid by it, except (a) Taxes that are being
contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which such Person has set aside on its books adequate reserves with respect thereto in accordance with GAAP, (b) Taxes which are not yet delinquent, (c) Taxes which are payable in
installments so long as paid before any penalty accrues with respect thereto, and (d) Taxes which do not exceed $500,000 in the aggregate. Except as set forth in clauses (a) through (d) above, no such Person has any
knowledge of any proposed tax assessment against Anixter or any of Anixter’s Subsidiaries which could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No tax liens have been filed and no claims are being asserted with respect to
any such taxes except for Taxes not exceeding $500,000 in the aggregate. 
 4.10 ERISA. No ERISA Event has occurred or is
reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all other such ERISA Events for which liability is reasonably expected to occur, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. As of each date that this
representation is made or deemed made, the present value of all “accumulated projected benefit obligations” (as determined for purposes of AXE’s Form 10-K) of all underfunded Pension Plans (based on the assumptions used by the Plans
to determine benefit obligations on an ongoing basis) did not, as of the date of the most recent financial statements reflecting such amounts, exceed by more than $75,000,000 the fair market value of the assets of all such underfunded Plans. 

4.11 Disclosure. Subject to changes in facts or conditions which are required or permitted under this Agreement, none of the
reports, financial statements, certificates or other information furnished by or on behalf of any of AXE, Anixter, and the Subsidiaries of Anixter to Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement or any
other Loan Document (as modified or supplemented by other information so furnished), taken as a whole, contains any material misstatement of fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. 
 4.12 Performance. None of AXE, Anixter, and the Subsidiaries of
Anixter is in default in the performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants or conditions contained in any Contractual Obligation applicable to it the effect of which could reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect, and no condition exists which, with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both, would constitute a default under any such Contractual Obligation, except where the consequences, direct or indirect, of such default or defaults,
if any, have not resulted in and could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Anixter and its Subsidiaries are Solvent after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Related Transactions Documents.

sound and reputable insurance companies, insurance on all their real and personal property in such amounts, subject to such deductibles and self-insurance retentions and covering such properties and risks as are adequate and customarily maintained
by companies engaged in the same or similar businesses operating in the same or similar locations.

 9. RIGHTS AND REMEDIES. 

9.1 Rights and Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, Administrative Agent may, and,
at the instruction of the Required Lenders, shall (in each case under clauses (a) or (b) by written notice to Borrowers), in addition to any other rights or remedies provided for hereunder or under any other Loan
Document or by applicable law, do any one or more of the following: 
 (a) (i) declare the principal of, and any and all accrued and
unpaid interest and fees in respect of, the Loans and all other Obligations (other than the Bank Product Obligations), whether evidenced by this Agreement or by any of the other Loan Documents to be immediately due and payable, whereupon the same
shall become and be immediately due and payable and Borrowers shall be obligated to repay all of such Obligations in full, without presentment, demand, protest, or further notice or other requirements of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly
waived by each Borrower, and (A) direct Borrowers to provide (and Borrowers agree that upon receipt of such notice Borrowers will provide) Letter of Credit Collateralization to Administrative Agent to be held as security for Borrowers’
reimbursement obligations for drawings that may subsequently occur under issued and outstanding Letters of Credit; 
 (b) declare the
Commitments terminated, whereupon the Commitments shall immediately be terminated together with (i) any obligation of any Revolving Lender to make Revolving Loans, (ii) the obligation of the Swing Lender to make Swing Loans, and
(iii) the obligation of Issuing Bank to issue Letters of Credit; and 
 (c) exercise all other rights and remedies available to
Administrative Agent or the Lenders under the Loan Documents, under applicable law, or in equity. 
 The foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, upon the
occurrence of any Event of Default described in clauses (h) or (i) of Section 8, in addition to the remedies set forth above, without any notice to Borrowers or any other Person or any act by the Lender Group, the
Commitments shall automatically terminate and 

  
 66 

 
the Obligations (other than the Bank Product Obligations), inclusive of the principal of, and any and all accrued and unpaid interest and fees in respect of, the Loans and all other Obligations
(other than the Bank Product Obligations), whether evidenced by this Agreement or by any of the other Loan Documents, shall automatically become and be immediately due and payable and Borrowers shall automatically be obligated to repay all of such
Obligations in full (including Borrowers being obligated to provide (and Borrowers agree that they will provide) (1) Letter of Credit Collateralization to Administrative Agent to be held as security for Borrowers’ reimbursement obligations
in respect of drawings that may subsequently occur under issued and outstanding Letters of Credit and (2) Bank Product Collateralization to be held as security for Borrowers’ or their Subsidiaries’ obligations in respect of
outstanding Bank Products), without presentment, demand, protest, or notice or other requirements of any kind, all of which are expressly waived by Borrowers. 

9.2 Remedies Cumulative. The rights and remedies of the Lender Group under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and all
other agreements shall be cumulative. The Lender Group shall have all other rights and remedies not inconsistent herewith as provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. No exercise by the Lender Group of one right or remedy shall be deemed an
election, and no waiver by the Lender Group of any Event of Default shall be deemed a continuing waiver. No delay by the Lender Group shall constitute a waiver, election, or acquiescence by it. 

10. WAIVERS; INDEMNIFICATION. 
 10.1
Demand; Protest; etc. Each Borrower waives demand, protest, notice of protest, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of
documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees at any time held by the Lender Group on which any Borrower may in any way be liable. 

10.2 The Lender Group’s Liability for Collateral. Each Borrower hereby agrees that: (a) so long as Administrative
Agent complies with its obligations, if any, under the Code, the Lender Group shall not in any way or manner be liable or responsible for: (i) the safekeeping of the Collateral, (ii) any loss or damage thereto occurring or arising in any
manner or fashion from any cause, (iii) any diminution in the value thereof, or (iv) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, forwarding agency, or other Person, and (b) all risk of loss, damage, or destruction of the
Collateral shall be borne by Borrowers. 
 10.3 Indemnification. Each Borrower shall pay, indemnify, defend, and hold
Administrative Agent-Related Persons, the Lender-Related Persons, and each Participant (each, an “Indemnified Person”) harmless (to the fullest extent permitted by law) from and against any and all claims, demands, suits, actions,
investigations, proceedings, liabilities, fines, costs, penalties, and damages, and all reasonable fees and disbursements of attorneys, experts, or consultants and all other costs and expenses actually incurred in connection therewith or in
connection with the enforcement of this indemnification (as and when they are incurred and irrespective of whether suit is brought), at any time asserted against, imposed upon, or incurred by any of them (a) in connection with or as a result of
or related to the execution and delivery (provided that Borrowers shall not be liable for costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) of any Lender (other than Wells Fargo) incurred in advising, structuring, drafting, reviewing,
administering or syndicating the Loan Documents), enforcement, performance, or administration (including any restructuring or workout with respect hereto) of this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, or the transactions contemplated hereby or
thereby or the monitoring of the Loan Parties’ and their Subsidiaries’ compliance with the terms of the Loan Documents (provided, that the indemnification in this 

  
 67 

 
clause (a) shall not extend to (i) disputes solely between or among the Lenders that do not involve any acts or omissions of any Loan
Party, or (ii) disputes solely between or among the Lenders and their respective Affiliates that do not involve any acts or omissions of any Loan Party; it being understood and agreed that the indemnification in this
clause (a) shall extend to Administrative Agent (but not the Lenders) relative to disputes between or among Administrative Agent, in its capacity as such, on the one hand, and one or more Lenders, or one or more of their Affiliates,
on the other hand, or (iii) any Taxes or any costs attributable to Taxes, which shall be governed by Section 16), (b) with respect to any actual or prospective investigation, litigation, or proceeding related to this
Agreement, any other Loan Document, the making of any Loans or issuance of any Letters of Credit hereunder, or the use of the proceeds of the Loans or the Letters of Credit provided hereunder (irrespective of whether any Indemnified Person
is a party thereto), or any act, omission, event, or circumstance in any manner related thereto, and (c) in connection with or arising out of any presence or release of Hazardous Materials at, on, under, to or from any assets or properties
owned, leased or operated by any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any Environmental Liabilities or remedial actions under or in respect of Environmental Laws related in any way to any such assets or properties of any Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries (each and all of the foregoing, the “Indemnified Liabilities”). The foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, no Borrower shall have any obligation to any Indemnified Person under this Section 10.3 with
respect to any Indemnified Liability that a court of competent jurisdiction finally determines to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person or its officers, directors, employees, attorneys, or agents.
This provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the repayment in full of the Obligations. If any Indemnified Person makes any payment to any other Indemnified Person with respect to an Indemnified Liability as to which Borrowers
were required to indemnify the Indemnified Person receiving such payment, the Indemnified Person making such payment is entitled to be indemnified and reimbursed by Borrowers with respect thereto. WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE FOREGOING INDEMNITY SHALL
APPLY TO EACH INDEMNIFIED PERSON WITH RESPECT TO INDEMNIFIED LIABILITIES WHICH IN WHOLE OR IN PART ARE CAUSED BY OR ARISE OUT OF ANY NEGLIGENT ACT OR OMISSION OF SUCH INDEMNIFIED PERSON OR OF ANY OTHER PERSON.

such minimum amount shall not apply to (I) an assignment or delegation by any Lender to any other Lender, an Affiliate of any Lender, or a Related Fund of such Lender or (II) a group of new Lenders, each of which is an Affiliate of each
other or a Related Fund of such new Lender to the extent that the aggregate amount to be assigned to all such new Lenders is at least $5,000,000), 

(D) 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, 
 (E) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance;
provided, that Borrowers and Administrative Agent may continue to deal solely and directly with the assigning Lender in connection with the interest so assigned to an Assignee until written notice of such assignment, together with payment
instructions, addresses, and related information with respect to the Assignee, have been given to Borrowers and Administrative Agent by such Lender and the Assignee, 

(F) unless waived by Administrative Agent, the assigning Lender or Assignee has paid to Administrative Agent, for Administrative Agent’s
separate account, a processing fee in the amount of $5,000, 

  
 73 

 (G) the assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to Administrative Agent an Administrative
Questionnaire in a form approved by Administrative Agent (the “Administrative Questionnaire”), and 
 (H) each assignment
must be accompanied by an assignment of a proportionate part of all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under the Receivables Facility Credit Agreement (including a proportionate part of the Receivables Facility Secured Obligations
owed to such assigning Lender and a proportionate part of such assigning Lender’s “Commitment” under and as defined in the Receivables Facility Credit Agreement). 

(b) From and after the date that Administrative Agent receives the executed Assignment and Acceptance and, if applicable, payment of the
required processing fee, (i) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, shall be a “Lender” and shall
have the rights and obligations of a Lender under the Loan Documents, and (ii) the assigning Lender shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents have been assigned by it pursuant to such
Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights (except with respect to Section 10.3) and be released from any future obligations under this Agreement (and in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining
portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto and thereto); provided, that nothing contained herein shall release any assigning
Lender from obligations that survive the termination of this Agreement, including such assigning Lender’s obligations under Section 15 and Section 17.9(a). 

(c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Lender thereunder and the Assignee thereunder confirm to and agree
with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements,
warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other Loan Document furnished pursuant hereto, (ii) such
assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of any Borrower or the performance or observance by any Borrower of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other
Loan Document furnished pursuant hereto, (iii) such Assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to
enter into such Assignment and Acceptance, (iv) such Assignee will, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent, such assigning Lender or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem
appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement, (v) such Assignee appoints and authorizes Administrative Agent to take such actions and to exercise such powers under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to Administrative Agent, by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, and (vi) such Assignee agrees that it will perform all of the
obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender. 
 (d) Immediately upon Administrative
Agent’s receipt of the required processing fee, if applicable, and delivery of notice to the assigning Lender pursuant to Section 13.1(b), this Agreement shall be deemed to be amended to the extent, but only to the extent, necessary
to reflect the addition of the Assignee and the resulting adjustment of the Commitments arising therefrom. The Commitment allocated to each Assignee shall reduce such Commitments of the assigning Lender pro tanto. 

  
 74 

 (e) Any Lender may at any time sell to one or more commercial banks, financial institutions, or
other Persons (a “Participant”) participating interests in all or any portion of its Obligations, its Commitment, and the other rights and interests of that Lender (the “Originating Lender”) hereunder and under the
other Loan Documents; provided, that (i) the Originating Lender shall remain a “Lender” for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the Participant receiving the participating interest in the
Obligations, the Commitments, and the other rights and interests of the Originating Lender hereunder shall not constitute a “Lender” hereunder or under the other Loan Documents and the Originating Lender’s obligations under this
Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) the Originating Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance of such obligations, (iii) Borrowers, Administrative Agent, and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with
the Originating Lender in connection with the Originating Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (iv) no Lender shall transfer or grant any participating interest under which the Participant has
the right to approve any amendment to, or any consent or waiver with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except to the extent such amendment to, or consent or waiver with respect to this Agreement or of any other Loan Document
would (A) extend the final maturity date of the Obligations hereunder in which such Participant is participating, (B) reduce the interest rate applicable to the Obligations hereunder in which such Participant is participating,
(C) release all or substantially all of the Collateral or guaranties (except to the extent expressly provided herein or in any of the Loan Documents) supporting the Obligations hereunder in which such Participant is participating,
(D) postpone the payment of, or reduce the amount of, the interest or fees payable to such Participant through such Lender (other than a waiver of default interest), or (E) decreases the amount or postpones the due dates of scheduled
principal repayments or prepayments or premiums payable to such Participant through such Lender, (v) no participation shall be sold to a natural person, (vi) no participation shall be sold to a Loan Party, an Affiliate of a Loan Party, or
any Sponsor Affiliated Entity, and (vii) all amounts payable by Borrowers hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation, except that, if amounts outstanding under this Agreement are due and unpaid, or shall
have been declared or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of set off in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the
same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement. The rights of any Participant only shall be derivative through the Originating Lender with whom such Participant participates and
no Participant shall have any rights under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any direct rights as to the other Lenders, Administrative Agent, Borrowers, the Collateral, or otherwise in respect of the Obligations. No Participant shall
have the right to participate directly in the making of decisions by the Lenders among themselves. 
 (f) In connection with any such
assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation or any grant of a security interest in, or pledge of, its rights under and interest in this Agreement, a Lender may, subject to the provisions of Section 17.9, disclose
all documents and information which it now or hereafter may have relating to any Borrower and its Subsidiaries and their respective businesses. 

  
 75 

 (g) Any other provision in this Agreement notwithstanding, any Lender may at any time create a
security interest in, or pledge, all or any portion of its rights under and interest in this Agreement in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Federal Reserve Bank or U.S. Treasury Regulation 31 CFR §203.24,
and such Federal Reserve Bank may enforce such pledge or security interest in any manner permitted under applicable law. 
 (h)
Administrative Agent (as a non-fiduciary agent on behalf of Borrowers) shall maintain, or cause to be maintained, a register (the “Register”) on which it enters the name and address of each Lender as the registered owner of the
Revolving Loans and/or Obligations (and the principal amount thereof and stated interest thereon) held by such Lender (each, a “Registered Loan”). Other than in connection with an assignment by a Lender of all or any portion of its
portion of the Revolving Loans and/or Obligations to an Affiliate of such Lender or a Related Fund of such Lender (i) a Registered Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same) may be assigned or sold in whole or in part only by
registration of such assignment or sale on the Register (and each registered note shall expressly so provide) and (ii) any assignment or sale of all or part of such Registered Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same) may be
effected only by registration of such assignment or sale on the Register, together with the surrender of the registered note, if any, evidencing the same duly endorsed by (or accompanied by a written instrument of assignment or sale duly executed
by) the holder of such registered note, whereupon, at the request of the designated assignee(s) or transferee(s), one or more new registered notes in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the designated assignee(s) or transferee(s).
Prior to the registration of assignment or sale of any Registered Loan (and the registered note, if any evidencing the same), Borrowers shall treat the Person in whose name such Registered Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same)
is registered as the owner thereof for the purpose of receiving all payments thereon and for all other purposes, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. In the case of any assignment by a Lender of all or any portion of its Revolving Loans and/or
Obligations to an Affiliate of such Lender or a Related Fund of such Lender, and which assignment is not recorded in the Register, the assigning Lender, on behalf of Borrowers, shall maintain a register comparable to the Register. 

(i) In the event that a Lender sells participations in the Registered Loan, such Lender, as a non-fiduciary agent on behalf of Borrowers,
shall maintain (or cause to be maintained) a register on which it enters the name of all participants in the Registered Loans held by it (and the principal amount (and stated interest thereon) of the portion of such Registered Loans that is subject
to such participations) (the “Participant Register”). A Registered Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same) may be participated in whole or in part only by registration of such participation on the Participant
Register (and each registered note shall expressly so provide). Any participation of such Registered Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same) may be effected only by the registration of such participation on the Participant
Register. 
 (j) Administrative Agent shall make a copy of the Register (and each Lender shall make a copy of its Participant Register in
the extent it has one) available for review by Borrowers from time to time as Borrowers may reasonably request. 
 13.2
Successors. This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of each of the parties; provided, that no Borrower may assign this Agreement or any rights or duties hereunder without the
Lenders’ prior written consent and any prohibited assignment 

  
 76 

 
shall be absolutely void ab initio. No consent to assignment by the Lenders shall release any Borrower from its Obligations. A Lender may assign this Agreement and the other Loan Documents
and its rights and duties hereunder and thereunder pursuant to Section 13.1 and, except as expressly required pursuant to Section 13.1, no consent or approval by any Borrower is required in connection with any such
assignment. 
 14. AMENDMENTS; WAIVERS. 

14.1 Amendments and Waivers. 

(a) No amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (other than Bank Product
Agreements or the Fee Letter), and no consent with respect to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Required Lenders (or by Administrative Agent at the written request of
the Required Lenders) and the Loan Parties that are party thereto and then any such waiver or consent shall be effective, but only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, that no such waiver,

 77 

 (x) other than in connection with a merger, liquidation, dissolution or sale of such Person

duties under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; or 
 (xi) amend, modify, or eliminate any of the provisions of
Section 2.4(b)(i), (ii), or (iii) or Section 2.4(e) or (f).

 (i) the definition of, or any of the terms or provisions of, the Fee
Letter, without the written consent of Administrative Agent and Borrowers (and shall not require the written consent of any of the Lenders); or 

(ii) any provision of Section 15 pertaining to Administrative Agent, or any other rights or duties of Administrative Agent under
this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, without the written consent of Administrative Agent, Borrowers, and the Required Lenders. 
 (c)
No amendment, waiver, modification, elimination, or consent shall, without written consent of Administrative Agent, Borrowers, and each Lender (other than any Defaulting Lender), do any of the following: (i) amend, modify, or eliminate the
definition of “Borrowing Base” or any of the defined terms (including, without limitation, the definition of “Eligible Inventory”) that are used in such definition, to the extent that any such change results in more credit being
made available to Borrowers based upon the Borrowing Base, but not otherwise; (ii) amend, modify, or eliminate the definition of “Maximum Revolver Amount”; or (iii) change Section 2.1(c).

Loan Documents pertaining to Issuing Bank, or any other rights or duties of Issuing Bank under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, without the written consent of Issuing Bank, Administrative Agent, Borrowers, and the Required Lenders. 

(f) No amendment, waiver, modification, elimination, or consent shall amend, modify, or waive any provision of this Agreement or the other
Loan Documents pertaining to Swing Lender, or any other rights or duties of Swing Lender under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, without the written consent of Swing Lender, Administrative Agent, Borrowers, and the Required Lenders. 

(g) Anything in this Section 14.1 to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) any amendment, modification, elimination, waiver,
consent, termination, or release of, or with respect to, any 

  
 78 

 
provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that relates only to the relationship of the Lender Group among themselves, and that does not affect the rights or obligations of any Loan
Party, shall not require consent by or the agreement of any Loan Party, and (ii) any amendment, waiver, modification, elimination, or consent of or with respect to any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be entered into
without the consent of, or over the objection of, any Defaulting Lender other than any of the matters governed by Section 14.1(a)(i) through (iii) that affect such Lender. 

14.2 Replacement of Certain Lenders. 

(a) If (i) any action to be taken by the Lender Group or Administrative Agent hereunder requires the consent, authorization, or agreement
of all Lenders or all Lenders affected thereby and if such action has received the consent, authorization, or agreement of the Required Lenders but not of all Lenders or all Lenders affected thereby, or (ii) any Lender makes a claim for
compensation under Section 16, then Borrowers or Administrative Agent, upon at least 5 Business Days prior irrevocable notice, may permanently replace any Lender that failed to give its consent, authorization, or agreement (a
“Non-Consenting Lender”) or any Lender that made a claim for compensation (a “Tax Lender”) with one or more Replacement Lenders, and the Non-Consenting Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, shall have no right to
refuse to be replaced hereunder. Such notice to replace the Non-Consenting Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, shall specify an effective date for such replacement, which date shall not be later than 15 Business Days after the date such notice is
given. 
 (b) Prior to the effective date of such replacement, the Non-Consenting Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, and each Replacement
Lender shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance, subject only to the Non-Consenting Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, being repaid in full its share of the outstanding Obligations (without any premium or penalty of any kind
whatsoever, but including (i) all interest, fees and other amounts that may be due in payable in respect thereof, and (ii) an assumption of its Pro Rata Share of participations in the Letters of Credit). If the Non-Consenting Lender or Tax
Lender, as applicable, shall refuse or fail to execute and deliver any such Assignment and Acceptance prior to the effective date of such replacement, Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, execute and deliver such Assignment and
Acceptance in the name or and on behalf of the Non-Consenting Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, and irrespective of whether Administrative Agent executes and delivers such Assignment and Acceptance, the Non-Consenting Lender or Tax Lender, as
applicable, shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Acceptance. The replacement of any Non-Consenting Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, shall be made in accordance with the terms of Section 13.1. Until such
time as one or more Replacement Lenders shall have acquired all of the Obligations, the Commitments, and the other rights and obligations of the Non-Consenting Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the
Non-Consenting Lender or Tax Lender, as applicable, shall remain obligated to make the Non-Consenting Lender’s or Tax Lender’s, as applicable, Pro Rata Share of Revolving Loans and to purchase a participation in each Letter of Credit, in
an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of participations in such Letters of Credit. 
 14.3 No Waivers; Cumulative Remedies. No
failure by Administrative Agent or any Lender to exercise any right, remedy, or option under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or delay by Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising the same, will operate as a waiver thereof. No
waiver by Administrative Agent or any Lender will be effective unless it is in writing, and then only to the extent specifically stated. No waiver by Administrative Agent or any Lender on any occasion shall affect or

  
 79 

 
diminish Administrative Agent’s and each Lender’s rights thereafter to require strict performance by Borrowers of any provision of this Agreement. Administrative Agent’s and each
Lender’s rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents will be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right or remedy that Administrative Agent or any Lender may have. 

15. AGENT; THE LENDER GROUP. 
 15.1
Appointment and Authorization of Administrative Agent. Each Lender hereby designates and appoints Wells Fargo as its agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes (and by entering
into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to designate, appoint, and authorize) Administrative Agent to execute and deliver each of the other Loan Documents on its behalf and to take such other action on its behalf
under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such
powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Administrative Agent agrees to act as agent for and on behalf of the Lenders (and the Bank Product Providers) on the conditions contained in this Section 15. Any provision to the contrary
contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document notwithstanding, Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents, nor shall Administrative
Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender (or Bank Product Provider), and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan
Document or otherwise exist against Administrative Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents with reference to Administrative Agent is not intended to
connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only a representative
relationship between independent contracting parties. Each Lender hereby further authorizes (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to authorize) Administrative Agent to act as the secured party
under each of the Loan Documents that create a Lien on any item of Collateral. Except as expressly otherwise provided in this Agreement, Administrative Agent shall have and may use its sole discretion with respect to exercising or refraining from
exercising any discretionary rights or taking or refraining from taking any actions that Administrative Agent expressly is entitled to take or assert under or pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, or of any other provision of the Loan Documents that provides rights or powers to Administrative Agent, Lenders agree that Administrative Agent shall have the right to exercise the following powers as long as this Agreement remains
in effect: (a) maintain, in accordance with its customary business practices, ledgers and records reflecting the status of the Obligations, the Collateral, payments and proceeds of Collateral, and related matters, (b) execute or file any
and all financing or similar statements or notices, amendments, renewals, supplements, documents, instruments, proofs of claim, notices and other written agreements with respect to the Loan Documents, (c) make Revolving Loans, for itself or on
behalf of Lenders, as provided in the Loan Documents, (d) exclusively receive, apply, and distribute payments and proceeds of the Collateral as provided in the Loan Documents, (e) open and maintain such bank accounts and cash management
arrangements as Administrative Agent deems necessary and appropriate in accordance with the Loan Documents for the foregoing purposes, (f) perform, exercise, and enforce any and all other rights and remedies of the Lender Group with respect to
any Borrower or its Subsidiaries, the Obligations, the 

  
 80 

 
Collateral, or otherwise related to any of same as provided in the Loan Documents, and (g) incur and pay such Lender Group Expenses as Administrative Agent may deem necessary or appropriate
for the performance and fulfillment of its functions and powers pursuant to the Loan Documents. 
 15.2 Delegation of Duties.
Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys in fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties.
Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney in fact that it selects as long as such selection was made without gross negligence or willful misconduct. 

15.3 Liability of Administrative Agent. None of Administrative Agent-Related Persons shall (a) be liable for any action
taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct), or (b) be responsible in any
manner to any of the Lenders (or Bank Product Providers) for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, or any officer or director thereof, contained in this Agreement or in any
other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity,
effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for any failure of any Borrower or its Subsidiaries or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or
thereunder. No Administrative Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lenders (or Bank Product Providers) to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this
Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the books and records or properties of any Borrower or its Subsidiaries. 
 15.4
Reliance by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, telefacsimile or other
electronic method of transmission, telex or telephone message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent, or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and
statements of legal counsel (including counsel to Borrowers or counsel to any Lender), independent accountants and other experts selected by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any
action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless Administrative Agent shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Lenders as it deems appropriate and until such instructions are received, Administrative Agent shall act, or
refrain from acting, as it deems advisable. If Administrative Agent so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction by the Lenders (and, if it so elects, the Bank Product Providers) against any and all liability and expense
that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance
with a request or consent of the Required Lenders and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Lenders (and Bank Product Providers). 

15.5 Notice of Default or Event of Default. Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the
occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest, fees, and expenses required to be paid to Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders and, except with respect to Events of
Default of which 

  
 81 

 
Administrative Agent has actual knowledge, unless Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or Borrowers referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event
of Default, and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” Administrative Agent promptly will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice or of any Event of Default of which Administrative Agent has actual knowledge. If
any Lender obtains actual knowledge of any Event of Default, such Lender promptly shall notify the other Lenders and Administrative Agent of such Event of Default. Each Lender shall be solely responsible for giving any notices to its Participants,
if any. Subject to Section 15.4, Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by the Required Lenders in accordance with Section 9; provided, that
unless and until Administrative Agent has received any such request, Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem
advisable. 
 15.6 Credit Decision. Each Lender (and Bank Product Provider) acknowledges that none of Administrative
Agent-Related Persons has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by Administrative Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of any Borrower and its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, shall be deemed to constitute any
representation or warranty by any Administrative Agent-Related Person to any Lender (or Bank Product Provider). Each Lender represents (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to represent) to
Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Administrative Agent-Related Person and based on such due diligence, documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation
into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of each Borrower or any other Person party to a Loan Document, and all applicable bank regulatory laws relating to the transactions contemplated
hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to Borrowers. Each Lender also represents (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to represent) that it will,
independently and without reliance upon any Administrative Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not
taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of each
Borrower or any other Person party to a Loan Document. Except for notices, reports, and other documents expressly herein required to be furnished to the Lenders by Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility
to provide any Lender (or Bank Product Provider) with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any Borrower or any other Person party to a Loan
Document that may come into the possession of any of Administrative Agent-Related Persons. Each Lender acknowledges (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to acknowledge) that Administrative Agent
does not have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis (except to the extent, if any, that is expressly specified herein) to provide such Lender (or Bank Product Provider) with any credit or other information with
respect to any Borrower, its Affiliates or any of their respective business, legal, financial or other affairs, and irrespective of whether such information came into Administrative Agent’s or its Affiliates’ or representatives’
possession before or after the date on which such Lender became a party to this Agreement (or such Bank Product Provider entered into a Bank Product Agreement). 

  
 82 

 15.7 Costs and Expenses; Indemnification. Administrative Agent may incur and pay
Lender Group Expenses to the extent Administrative Agent reasonably deems necessary or appropriate for the performance and fulfillment of its functions, powers, and obligations pursuant to the Loan Documents, including court costs, attorneys’
fees and expenses, fees and expenses of financial accountants, advisors, consultants, and appraisers, costs of collection by outside collection agencies, auctioneer fees and expenses, and costs of security guards or insurance premiums paid to
maintain the Collateral, whether or not Borrowers are obligated to reimburse Administrative Agent or Lenders for such expenses pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise. Administrative Agent is authorized and directed to deduct and retain sufficient
amounts from payments or proceeds of the Collateral received by Administrative Agent to reimburse Administrative Agent for such out-of-pocket costs and expenses prior to the distribution of any amounts to Lenders (or Bank Product Providers). In the
event Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such costs and expenses by Borrowers or their Subsidiaries, each Lender hereby agrees that it is and shall be obligated to pay to Administrative Agent such Lender’s ratable share thereof. Whether
or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, each of the Lenders, on a ratable basis, shall indemnify and defend Administrative Agent-Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrowers and without limiting the
obligation of Borrowers to do so) from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities; provided, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to any Administrative Agent-Related Person of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities
resulting solely from such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct nor shall any Lender be liable for the obligations of any Defaulting Lender in failing to make a Revolving Loan or other extension of credit hereunder. Without
limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse Administrative Agent upon demand for such Lender’s ratable share of any costs or out of pocket expenses (including attorneys, accountants, advisors, and consultants fees and expenses)
incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment, or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights
or responsibilities under, this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the extent that Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of Borrowers. The undertaking in this Section 15.7 shall survive the
payment of all Obligations hereunder and the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent. 
 15.8 Administrative Agent in
Individual Capacity. Wells Fargo and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, provide Bank Products to, acquire Equity Interests in, and generally engage in any kind of banking,
trust, financial advisory, underwriting, or other business with any Borrower and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates and any other Person party to any Loan Document as though Wells Fargo were not Administrative Agent hereunder, and, in each case,
without notice to or consent of the other members of the Lender Group. The other members of the Lender Group acknowledge (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to acknowledge) that, pursuant to
such activities, Wells Fargo or its Affiliates may receive information regarding a Borrower or its Affiliates or any other Person party to any Loan Documents that is subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Borrower or such other
Person and that prohibit the disclosure of such information to the Lenders (or Bank Product Providers), and the Lenders acknowledge (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to acknowledge) that, in
such circumstances (and in the absence of a waiver of such confidentiality obligations, which waiver Administrative Agent will use its reasonable best efforts to obtain), Administrative Agent shall not be under any obligation to provide such
information to them. The terms “Lender” and “Lenders” include Wells Fargo in its individual capacity.

 15.9 Successor Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent may resign as
Administrative Agent upon 30 days (10 days if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) prior written notice to the Lenders (unless such notice is waived by the Required Lenders) and Borrowers (unless such notice is waived by Borrowers)
and without any notice to the Bank Product Providers. If Administrative Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall be entitled, with (so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) the consent of Borrowers (such
consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or conditioned), appoint a successor Administrative Agent for the Lenders (and the Bank Product Providers). If, at the time that Administrative Agent’s resignation is effective, it is acting as
Issuing Bank or the Swing Lender, such resignation shall also operate to effectuate its resignation as Issuing Bank or the Swing Lender, as applicable, and it shall automatically be relieved of any further obligation to issue Letters of Credit, or
to make Swing Loans. If no successor Administrative Agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and Borrowers, a successor
Administrative Agent. If Administrative Agent has materially breached or failed to perform any material provision of this Agreement or of applicable law, the Required Lenders may agree in writing to remove and replace Administrative Agent with a
successor Administrative Agent from among the Lenders with (so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) the consent of Borrowers (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed, or conditioned). In any such event, upon the
acceptance of its appointment as successor Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor Administrative Agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers, and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the term “Administrative Agent”
shall mean such successor Administrative Agent and the retiring Administrative Agent’s appointment, powers, and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as
Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 15 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement. If no successor Administrative Agent has
accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date which is 30 days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and
the Lenders shall perform all of the duties of Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. 

15.10 Lender in Individual Capacity. Any Lender and its respective Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the
account of, accept deposits from, provide Bank Products to, acquire Equity Interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting, or other business with any Borrower and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates and
any other Person party to any Loan Documents as though such Lender were not a Lender hereunder without notice to or consent of the other members of the Lender Group (or the Bank Product Providers). The other members of the Lender Group acknowledge
(and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to acknowledge) that, pursuant to such activities, such Lender and its respective Affiliates may receive information regarding a Borrower or its Affiliates or
any other Person party to any Loan Documents that is subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Borrower or such other Person and that prohibit the disclosure of such information to the Lenders, and the Lenders acknowledge (and by
entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to acknowledge) that, in such circumstances (and in the absence of a waiver of such confidentiality obligations, which waiver such Lender will use its reasonable best
efforts to obtain), such Lender shall not be under any obligation to provide such information to them.

 15.11 Collateral Matters. 

(a) The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to
authorize) Administrative Agent to release any Lien (i) on any Collateral upon the termination of the Commitments and payment and satisfaction in full by Borrowers of all of the Obligations, (ii) on any Collateral constituting property
being sold or disposed of if a release is required or desirable in connection therewith and if Borrowers certify to Administrative Agent that the sale or disposition is permitted under Section 6.5 (and Administrative Agent may rely
conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry), (iii) on any Collateral constituting property in which none of Borrowers and their Subsidiaries owned any interest at the time Administrative Agent’s Lien was granted nor at
any time thereafter, (iv) on any Collateral constituting property leased or licensed to a Borrower or its Subsidiaries under a lease or license that has expired or is terminated in a transaction permitted under this Agreement, (v) on any
Collateral in connection with a credit bid or purchase authorized under this Section 15.11, (vi) in Administrative Agent’s discretion, in addition to any Collateral released as authorized under clauses (i) through
(v) above and clause (vii) below, on any other Collateral valued in the aggregate not in excess of $5,000,000 during any calendar year (it being agreed that Administrative Agent may rely conclusively on one or more
certificates of Borrowers as to the value of any Collateral to be so released, without further inquiry), or (vii) in Administrative Agent’s discretion, in addition to any Collateral released as authorized under clauses (i)
through (vi) above, on any other Collateral valued in the aggregate not in excess of $10,000,000 during any calendar year, so long as before and after giving effect to any such release authorized under this clause (vii) the
Borrowing Base exceeds the Maximum Revolver Amount (it being agreed that Administrative Agent may rely conclusively on one or more Borrowing Base Certificates and other certificates of Borrowers as to the amount of the Borrowing Base and/or the
value of any Collateral to be so released, as applicable, without further inquiry). The Loan Parties and the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to
authorize) Administrative Agent, based upon the instruction of the Required Lenders, to (A) consent to the sale of, credit bid, or purchase (either directly or indirectly through one or more entities) all or any portion of the Collateral at any
sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, (B) credit bid or purchase (either directly or indirectly through one or more entities) all or any portion of the Collateral
at any sale or other disposition thereof conducted under the provisions of the Code, including pursuant to Sections 9-610 or 9-620 of the Code, or (C) credit bid or purchase (either directly or indirectly through one or more entities) all or
any portion of the Collateral at any other sale or foreclosure conducted or consented to by Administrative Agent in accordance with applicable law in any judicial action or proceeding or by the exercise of any legal or equitable remedy. In
connection with any such credit bid or purchase, (i) the Obligations owed to the Lenders and the Bank Product Providers shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid on a ratable basis (with Obligations with respect to contingent or
unliquidated claims being estimated for such purpose if the fixing or liquidation thereof would not impair or unduly delay the ability of Administrative Agent to credit bid or purchase at such sale or other disposition of the Collateral and, if such
contingent or unliquidated claims cannot be estimated without impairing or unduly delaying the ability of Administrative Agent to credit bid at such sale or other disposition, then such claims shall be disregarded, not credit bid, and not entitled
to any interest in the Collateral that is the subject of such credit bid or purchase) and the Lenders and the Bank Product Providers whose Obligations are credit bid shall be entitled to receive interests (ratably based upon the proportion of their
Obligations credit bid in relation to the aggregate amount of Obligations so credit bid) in the Collateral that is the subject of such credit bid or 

  
 85 

 
purchase (or in the Equity Interests of the any entities that are used to consummate such credit bid or purchase), and (ii) Administrative Agent, based upon the instruction of the Required
Lenders, may accept non-cash consideration, including debt and equity securities issued by any entities used to consummate such credit bid or purchase and in connection therewith Administrative Agent may reduce the Obligations owed to the Lenders
and the Bank Product Providers (ratably based upon the proportion of their Obligations credit bid in relation to the aggregate amount of Obligations so credit bid) based upon the value of such non-cash consideration. Except as provided above,
Administrative Agent will not execute and deliver a release of any Lien on any Collateral without the prior written authorization of (y) if the release is of all or substantially all of the Collateral, all of the Lenders (without requiring the
authorization of the Bank Product Providers), or (z) otherwise, the Required Lenders (without requiring the authorization of the Bank Product Providers). Upon request by Administrative Agent or Borrowers at any time, the Lenders will (and if so
requested, the Bank Product Providers will) confirm in writing Administrative Agent’s authority to release any such Liens on particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 15.11; provided, that
(1) anything to the contrary contained in any of the Loan Documents notwithstanding, Administrative Agent shall not be required to execute any document or take any action necessary to evidence such release on terms that, in Administrative
Agent’s opinion, could expose Administrative Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Lien without recourse, representation, or warranty, and (2) such release shall not in any
manner discharge, affect, or impair the Obligations or any Liens (other than those expressly released) upon (or obligations of Borrowers in respect of) any and all interests retained by any Borrower, including, the proceeds of any sale, all of which
shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral. Each Lender further hereby irrevocably authorize (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to irrevocably authorize) Administrative Agent, at its
option and in its sole discretion, to subordinate any Lien granted to or held by Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien permitted by this Agreement on such property if such permitted Lien secures purchase money
Indebtedness permitted by this Agreement. 
 (b) Administrative Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any of the Lenders (or the Bank
Product Providers) (i) to verify or assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by Borrowers or their Subsidiaries or is cared for, protected, or insured or has been encumbered, (ii) to verify or assure that Administrative Agent’s
Liens have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected, or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, (iii) to verify or assure that any particular items of Collateral meet the eligibility criteria
applicable in respect thereof, (iv) to impose, maintain, increase, reduce, implement, or eliminate any particular reserve hereunder or to determine whether the amount of any reserve is appropriate or not, or (v) to exercise at all or in
any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to Administrative Agent pursuant to any of the Loan Documents, it being understood and
agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission, or event related thereto, subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, Administrative Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion given
Administrative Agent’s own interest in the Collateral in its capacity as one of the Lenders and that Administrative Agent shall have no other duty or liability whatsoever to any Lender (or Bank Product Provider) as to any of the foregoing,
except as otherwise expressly provided herein. 

  
 86 

 15.12 Right of Setoff; Restrictions on Actions by Lenders; Sharing of Payments.

 (a) 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 applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held, and other obligations (in whatever
currency) at any time owing, by such Lender or such Affiliate, to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower or any other Loan Party against any and all of the obligations of such Borrower or such Loan Party now or hereafter existing under
this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or such Affiliate, irrespective of whether or not such Lender such or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of such
Borrower or such Loan Party may be unmatured; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (i) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to Administrative Agent for further
application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.3(g) and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of Administrative Agent, each Issuing
Bank, and the Lenders, and (ii) such Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The
rights of each Lender under this Section 15.12(a) are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender may have. Each Lender agrees to notify the Borrower Representative and Administrative
Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application under this Section 15.12(a). 

(b) Each of the Lenders agrees that it shall not, unless specifically requested to do so in writing by Administrative Agent, take or cause to
be taken any action, including, the commencement of any legal or equitable proceedings to enforce any Loan Document against any Borrower or any Guarantor or to foreclose any Lien on, or otherwise enforce any security interest in, any of the
Collateral. 
 (c) If, at any time or times any Lender shall receive (i) by payment, foreclosure, setoff, or otherwise, any proceeds of
Collateral or any payments with respect to the Obligations, except for any such proceeds or payments received by such Lender from Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or (ii) payments from Administrative Agent in excess
of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of all such distributions by Administrative Agent, such Lender promptly shall (A) turn the same over to Administrative Agent, in kind, and with such endorsements as may be required to negotiate the same to
Administrative Agent, or in immediately available funds, as applicable, for the account of all of the Lenders and for application to the Obligations in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement, or (B) purchase, without
recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in the Obligations owed to the other Lenders so that such excess payment received shall be applied ratably as among the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares; provided,
that to the extent that such excess payment received by the purchasing party is thereafter recovered from it, those purchases of participations shall be rescinded in whole or in part, as applicable, and the applicable portion of the purchase price
paid therefor shall be returned to such purchasing party, but without interest except to the extent that such purchasing party is required to pay interest in connection with the recovery of the excess payment. 

15.13 Agency for Perfection. Administrative Agent hereby appoints each other Lender (and each Bank Product Provider) as its
agent (and each Lender hereby accepts (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to accept) such appointment) for the 

  
 87 

 
purpose of perfecting Administrative Agent’s Liens in assets which, in accordance with Article 8 or Article 9, as applicable, of the Code can be perfected by possession or control. Should
any Lender obtain possession or control of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify Administrative Agent thereof, and, promptly upon Administrative Agent’s request therefor shall deliver possession or control of such Collateral to
Administrative Agent or in accordance with Administrative Agent’s instructions. 
 15.14 Payments by Administrative Agent to the
Lenders. All payments to be made by Administrative Agent to the Lenders (or Bank Product Providers) shall be made by bank wire transfer of immediately available funds pursuant to such wire transfer instructions as each party may designate
for itself by written notice to Administrative Agent. Concurrently with each such payment, Administrative Agent shall identify whether such payment (or any portion thereof) represents principal, premium, fees, or interest of the Obligations. 

15.15 Concerning the Collateral and Related Loan Documents. Each member of the Lender Group authorizes and directs
Administrative Agent to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each member of the Lender Group agrees (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to agree) that any action taken by
Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents relating to the Collateral and the exercise by Administrative Agent of its powers set forth therein or herein, together with such other powers that are
reasonably incidental thereto, shall be binding upon all of the Lenders (and such Bank Product Provider). 
 15.16 Field Examination
Reports; Confidentiality; Disclaimers by Lenders; Other Reports and Information. By becoming a party to this Agreement, each Lender: 

(a) is deemed to have requested that Administrative Agent furnish such Lender, promptly after it becomes available, a copy of each field
examination report respecting any Borrower or its Subsidiaries (each, a “Report”) prepared by or at the request of Administrative Agent, and Administrative Agent shall so furnish each Lender with such Reports; 

(b) expressly agrees and acknowledges that Administrative Agent does not (i) make any representation or warranty as to the accuracy of
any Report, and (ii) shall not be liable for any information contained in any Report; 
 (c) expressly agrees and acknowledges that the
Reports are not comprehensive audits or examinations, that Administrative Agent or other party performing any field examination will inspect only specific information regarding Borrowers and their Subsidiaries and will rely significantly upon
Borrowers’ and their Subsidiaries’ books and records, as well as on representations of Borrowers’ personnel; 
 (d) agrees to
keep all Reports and other material, non-public information regarding Borrowers and their Subsidiaries and their operations, assets, and existing and contemplated business plans in a confidential manner in accordance with Section 17.9;
and 
 (e) without limiting the generality of any other indemnification provision contained in this Agreement, agrees: (i) to hold
Administrative Agent and any other Lender preparing a Report harmless from any action the indemnifying Lender may take or fail to take or any conclusion the indemnifying Lender may reach or draw from any Report in connection with any loans or other
credit 

  
 88 

 
accommodations that the indemnifying Lender has made or may make to Borrowers, or the indemnifying Lender’s participation in, or the indemnifying Lender’s purchase of, a loan or loans
of Borrowers, and (ii) to pay and protect, and indemnify, defend and hold Administrative Agent, and any such other Lender preparing a Report harmless from and against, the claims, actions, proceedings, damages, costs, expenses, and other
amounts (including, attorneys’ fees and costs) incurred by Administrative Agent and any such other Lender preparing a Report as the direct or indirect result of any third parties who might obtain all or part of any Report through the
indemnifying Lender other than in accordance with Section 17.9. 
 (f) In addition to the foregoing, (x) any Lender may
from time to time request of Administrative Agent in writing that Administrative Agent provide to such Lender a copy of any report or document provided by any Borrower or its Subsidiaries to Administrative Agent that has not been contemporaneously
provided by such Borrower or such Subsidiary to such Lender, and, upon receipt of such request, Administrative Agent promptly shall provide a copy of same to such Lender, (y) to the extent that Administrative Agent is entitled, under any
provision of the Loan Documents, to request additional reports or information from any Borrower or its Subsidiaries, any Lender may, from time to time, reasonably request Administrative Agent to exercise such right as specified in such Lender’s
notice to Administrative Agent, whereupon Administrative Agent promptly shall request of Borrowers the additional reports or information reasonably specified by such Lender, and, upon receipt thereof from such Borrower or such Subsidiary,
Administrative Agent promptly shall provide a copy of same to such Lender, and (z) any time that Administrative Agent renders to Borrowers a statement regarding the Loan Account, Administrative Agent shall send a copy of such statement to each
Lender. 
 15.17 Several Obligations; No Liability. Notwithstanding that certain of the Loan Documents now or hereafter may
have been or will be executed only by or in favor of Administrative Agent in its capacity as such, and not by or in favor of the Lenders, any and all obligations on the part of Administrative Agent (if any) to make any credit available hereunder
shall constitute the several (and not joint) obligations of the respective Lenders on a ratable basis, according to their respective Commitments, to make an amount of such credit not to exceed, in principal amount, at any one time outstanding, the
amount of their respective Commitments. Nothing contained herein shall confer upon any Lender any interest in, or subject any Lender to any liability for, or in respect of, the business, assets, profits, losses, or liabilities of any other Lender.
Each Lender shall be solely responsible for notifying its Participants of any matters relating to the Loan Documents to the extent any such notice may be required, and no Lender shall have any obligation, duty, or liability to any Participant of any
other Lender. Except as provided in Section 15.7, no member of the Lender Group shall have any liability for the acts of any other member of the Lender Group. No Lender shall be responsible to any Borrower or any other Person for any
failure by any other Lender (or Bank Product Provider) to fulfill its obligations to make credit available hereunder, nor to advance for such Lender (or Bank Product Provider) or on its behalf, nor to take any other action on behalf of such Lender
(or Bank Product Provider) hereunder or in connection with the financing contemplated herein. 
 15.18 Joint Lead Arrangers, Joint
Book Runners, Co-Syndication Agents, and Co-Documentation Agents. Each of the Joint Lead Arrangers, Joint Book Runners,
Co-Syndication Agents, and Co-Documentation Agents, in such capacity, shall not have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility, or duty under this
Agreement other than those applicable to it in its capacity as a Lender, as Administrative Agent, as Swing Lender, or as Issuing Bank. Without limiting the foregoing, each of the Joint Lead Arrangers, Joint Book Runners, Co-Syndication Agents, and Co-Documentation 

  
 89 

 
Agents, in such capacities, shall not have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender or any Loan Party. Each Lender, Administrative Agent, Swing Lender, Issuing Bank, and
each Loan Party acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on the Joint Lead Arrangers, Joint Book Runners, Co-Syndication Agents, and Co-Documentation
Agents in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder. Each of the Joint Lead Arrangers, Joint Book Runners, Co-Syndication Agents, and
Co-Documentation Agents, in such capacity, shall be entitled to resign at any time by giving notice to Administrative Agent and Borrowers. 

16. WITHHOLDING TAXES. 
 16.1
Payments. All payments made by Borrowers hereunder or under any note or other Loan Document will be made without setoff, counterclaim, or other defense. In addition, all such payments will be made free and clear of, and without
deduction or withholding for, any present or future Indemnified Taxes, and in the event any deduction or withholding of Indemnified Taxes is required, Borrowers shall comply with the next sentence of this Section 16.1. If any Indemnified
Taxes are so levied or imposed, Borrowers agree to pay the full amount of such Indemnified Taxes and such additional amounts as may be necessary so that every payment of all amounts due under this Agreement, any note, or Loan Document, including any
amount paid pursuant to this Section 16.1 after withholding or deduction for or on account of any Indemnified Taxes, will not be less than the amount provided for herein. Borrowers will furnish to Administrative Agent as promptly as
possible after the date the payment of any Indemnified Tax is due pursuant to applicable law, certified copies of tax receipts evidencing such payment by Borrowers. Borrowers agree to pay any present or future stamp, value added or documentary taxes
or any other excise or property taxes, charges, or similar levies that arise from any payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery, performance, recordation, or filing of, or otherwise with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan
Document. 
 16.2 Exemptions. 

(a) If a Lender or Participant is entitled to claim an exemption or reduction from United States withholding tax, such Lender or Participant
agrees with and in favor of Administrative Agent, to deliver to Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender granting the participation only) one of the following before receiving its first payment under this Agreement: 

(i) if such Lender or Participant is entitled to claim an exemption from United States withholding tax pursuant to the portfolio interest
exception, (A) a statement of the Lender or Participant, signed under penalty of perjury, that it is not a (I) a “bank” as described in Section 881(c)(3)(a) of the IRC, (II) a 10% shareholder of any Borrower
(within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(b) of the IRC), or (III) a controlled foreign corporation related to Borrowers within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the IRC, and (B) a properly completed and executed IRS Form
W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, or Form W-8IMY (with proper attachments); 
 (ii) if such Lender or Participant is entitled to
claim an exemption from, or a reduction of, withholding tax under a United States tax treaty, a properly completed and executed copy of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable; 

(iii) if such Lender or Participant is entitled to claim that interest paid under this Agreement is exempt from United States withholding tax
because it is effectively connected with a United States trade or business of such Lender, a properly completed and executed copy of IRS Form W-8ECI; 

  
 90 

 (iv) if such Lender or Participant is entitled to claim that interest paid under this Agreement
is exempt from United States withholding tax because such Lender or Participant serves as an intermediary, a properly completed and executed copy of IRS Form W-8IMY (with proper attachments); or 

(v) a properly completed and executed copy of any other form or forms, including IRS Form W-9, as may be required under the IRC or other laws
of the United States as a condition to exemption from, or reduction of, United States withholding or backup withholding tax. 
 (b) Each
Lender or Participant shall provide new forms (or successor forms) upon the expiration or obsolescence of any previously delivered forms and promptly notify Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, the Lender granting the
participation only) of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction. 
 (c) If a
Lender or Participant claims an exemption from withholding tax in a jurisdiction other than the United States, such Lender or such Participant agrees with and in favor of Administrative Agent, to deliver to Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a
Participant, to the Lender granting the participation only) any such form or forms, as may be required under the laws of such jurisdiction as a condition to exemption from, or reduction of, foreign withholding or backup withholding tax before
receiving its first payment under this Agreement, but only if such Lender or such Participant is legally able to deliver such forms, provided, that nothing in this Section 16.2(c) shall require a Lender or Participant to
disclose any information that it deems to be confidential (including without limitation, its tax returns). Each Lender and each Participant shall provide new forms (or successor forms) upon the expiration or obsolescence of any previously delivered
forms and promptly notify Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, the Lender granting the participation only) of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction. 

(d) If a Lender or Participant claims exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax and such Lender or Participant sells, assigns, grants a
participation in, or otherwise transfers all or part of the Obligations of Borrowers to such Lender or Participant, such Lender or Participant agrees to notify Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a sale of a participation interest, the Lender
granting the participation only) of the percentage amount in which it is no longer the beneficial owner of Obligations of Borrowers to such Lender or Participant. To the extent of such percentage amount, Administrative Agent will treat such
Lender’s or such Participant’s documentation provided pursuant to Section 16.2(a) or 16.2(c) as no longer valid. With respect to such percentage amount, such Participant or Assignee may provide new
documentation, pursuant to Section 16.2(a) or 16.2(c), if applicable. Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of this Section 16 with respect to its participation in any portion of
the Commitments and the Obligations so long as such Participant complies with the obligations set forth in this Section 16 with respect thereto. 

16.3 Reductions. 

(a) If a Lender or a Participant is subject an applicable withholding tax, Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, the Lender
granting the participation) may withhold 

  
 91 

 
from any payment to such Lender or such Participant an amount equivalent to the applicable withholding tax. If the forms or other documentation required by Section 16.2(a) or
16.2(c) are not delivered to Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender granting the participation), then Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, the Lender granting the participation) may
withhold from any payment to such Lender or such Participant not providing such forms or other documentation an amount equivalent to the applicable withholding tax. 

(b) If the IRS or any other Governmental Authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that Administrative Agent (or,
in the case of a Participant, the Lender granting the participation) did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender or any Participant due to a failure on the part of the Lender or any Participant (because the
appropriate form was not delivered, was not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify Administrative Agent (or such Participant failed to notify the Lender granting the participation) of a change in circumstances which rendered the
exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective, or for any other reason) such Lender shall indemnify and hold Administrative Agent harmless (or, in the case of a Participant, such Participant shall indemnify and hold the Lender
granting the participation harmless) for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, the Lender granting the participation), as tax or otherwise, including penalties and interest, and
including any taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on the amounts payable to Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender granting the participation only) under this Section 16, together with all costs and expenses
(including attorneys’ fees and expenses). The obligation of the Lenders and the Participants under this subsection shall survive the payment of all Obligations and the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent. 

16.4 Refunds. If Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any
Indemnified Taxes for which Borrowers have paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 16, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, it shall pay over such refund to Borrowers (but only to the extent
of payments made, or additional amounts paid, by Borrowers under this Section 16 with respect to Indemnified Taxes giving rise to such a refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of Administrative Agent or such Lender and without
interest (other than any interest paid by the applicable Governmental Authority with respect to such a refund); provided, that Borrowers, upon the request of Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to
Borrowers (plus any penalties, interest or other charges, imposed by the applicable Governmental Authority, other than such penalties, interest or other charges imposed as a result of the willful misconduct or gross negligence of Administrative
Agent hereunder) to Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, this
Section 16 shall not be construed to require Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information which it deems confidential) to Borrowers or any other Person. 

17. GENERAL PROVISIONS. 
 17.1
Effectiveness. This Agreement shall be binding and deemed effective when executed by each Borrower, Administrative Agent, and each Lender whose signature is provided for on the signature pages hereof. 

  
 92 

 17.2 Section Headings. Headings and numbers have been set forth herein for
convenience only. Unless the contrary is compelled by the context, everything contained in each Section applies equally to this entire Agreement. 

17.3 Interpretation. Neither this Agreement nor any uncertainty or ambiguity herein shall be construed against the Lender Group
or any Borrower, whether under any rule of construction or otherwise. On the contrary, this Agreement has been reviewed by all parties and shall be construed and interpreted according to the ordinary meaning of the words used so as to accomplish
fairly the purposes and intentions of all parties hereto. 
 17.4 Severability of Provisions. Each provision of this Agreement
shall be severable from every other provision of this Agreement for the purpose of determining the legal enforceability of any specific provision. 

17.5 Bank Product Providers. Each Bank Product Provider in its capacity as such shall be deemed a third-party beneficiary hereof
and of the provisions of the other Loan Documents for purposes of any reference in a Loan Document to the parties for whom Administrative Agent is acting. Administrative Agent hereby agrees to act as agent for such Bank Product Providers and, by
virtue of entering into a Bank Product Agreement, the applicable Bank Product Provider shall be automatically deemed to have appointed Administrative Agent as its agent and to have accepted the benefits of the Loan Documents. It is understood and
agreed that the rights and benefits of each Bank Product Provider under the Loan Documents consist exclusively of such Bank Product Provider’s being a beneficiary of the Liens and security interests (and, if applicable, guarantees) granted to
Administrative Agent and the right to share in payments and collections out of the Collateral as more fully set forth herein. In addition, each Bank Product Provider, by virtue of entering into a Bank Product Agreement, shall be automatically deemed
to have agreed that Administrative Agent shall have the right, but shall have no obligation, to establish, maintain, relax, or release reserves in respect of the Bank Product Obligations and that if reserves are established there is no obligation on
the part of Administrative Agent to determine or insure whether the amount of any such reserve is appropriate or not. In connection with any such distribution of payments or proceeds of Collateral, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to assume no
amounts are due or owing to any Bank Product Provider unless such Bank Product Provider has provided a written certification (setting forth a reasonably detailed calculation) to Administrative Agent as to the amounts that are due and owing to it and
such written certification is received by Administrative Agent a reasonable period of time prior to the making of such distribution. Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to calculate the amount due and payable with respect to any Bank
Products, but may rely upon the written certification of the amount due and payable from the applicable Bank Product Provider. In the absence of an updated certification, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to assume that the amount due and
payable to the applicable Bank Product Provider is the amount last certified to Administrative Agent by such Bank Product Provider as being due and payable (less any distributions made to such Bank Product Provider on account thereof). Borrowers may
obtain Bank Products from any Bank Product Provider, although Borrowers are not required to do so. Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that no Bank Product Provider has committed to provide any Bank Products and that the providing of Bank Products
by any Bank Product Provider is in the sole and absolute discretion of such Bank Product Provider. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, no provider or holder of any Bank Product shall have any voting
or approval rights hereunder (or be deemed a Lender) solely by virtue of its status as the provider or holder of such agreements or products or the 

  
 93 

 
Obligations owing thereunder, nor shall the consent of any such provider or holder be required (other than in their capacities as Lenders, to the extent applicable) for any matter hereunder or
under any of the other Loan Documents, including as to any matter relating to the Collateral or the release of Collateral or Guarantors. 

17.6 Debtor-Creditor Relationship. The relationship between the Lenders and Administrative Agent, on the one hand, and the Loan
Parties, on the other hand, is solely that of creditor and debtor. No member of the Lender Group has (or shall be deemed to have) any fiduciary relationship or duty to any Loan Party arising out of or in connection with the Loan Documents or the
transactions contemplated thereby, and there is no agency or joint venture relationship between the members of the Lender Group, on the one hand, and the Loan Parties, on the other hand, by virtue of any Loan Document or any transaction contemplated
therein. 
 17.7 Counterparts; Electronic Execution. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by
different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one and the same Agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of
this Agreement by telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission shall be equally as effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement. Any party delivering an executed counterpart of this Agreement by
telefacsimile or other electronic method of transmission also shall deliver an original executed counterpart of this Agreement but the failure to deliver an original executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and binding
effect of this Agreement. The foregoing shall apply to each other Loan Document mutatis mutandis. 
 17.8 Revival and
Reinstatement of Obligations; Certain Waivers. If any member of the Lender Group or any Bank Product Provider repays, refunds, restores, or returns in whole or in part, any payment or property (including any proceeds
of Collateral) previously paid or transferred to such member of the Lender Group or such Bank Product Provider in full or partial satisfaction of any Obligation or on account of any other obligation
of any Loan Party under any Loan Document or any Bank Product Agreement, because the payment, transfer, or the incurrence of the obligation so satisfied is asserted or declared to be void, voidable, or otherwise recoverable under any
law relating to creditors’ rights, including provisions of the Bankruptcy Code relating to fraudulent transfers, preferences, or other voidable or recoverable obligations or transfers (each, a “Voidable
Transfer”), or because such member of the Lender Group or Bank Product Provider elects to do so on the reasonable advice of its counsel in connection with a claim that the payment, transfer, or incurrence is or may be a
Voidable Transfer, then, as to any such Voidable Transfer, or the amount thereof that such member of the Lender Group or Bank Product Provider elects to repay, restore, or return (including pursuant to a settlement of any claim in
respect thereof), and as to all reasonable costs, expenses, and attorneys’ fees of such member of the Lender Group or Bank Product Provider related thereto, (i) the liability of the Loan Parties with respect to the
amount or property paid, refunded, restored, or returned will automatically and immediately be revived, reinstated, and restored and will exist and (ii) Administrative Agent’s Liens securing such liability shall be effective,
revived, and remain in full force and effect, in each case, as fully as if such Voidable Transfer had never been made. If, prior to any of the foregoing, (A) Administrative Agent’s Liens shall have been released or terminated or
(B) any provision of this Agreement shall have been terminated or cancelled, Administrative Agent’s Liens, or such provision of this Agreement, shall be reinstated in full force and effect and such prior release, termination,
cancellation or surrender shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect the obligation of any Loan Party in respect of such liability or any Collateral securing such liability. 

  
 94

that the disclosing party is permitted to provide such prior written notice to Borrowers pursuant to the terms of the subpoena or other legal process and (y) any disclosure under this clause (vi) shall be limited to the portion
of the Confidential Information as may be required by such Governmental Authority pursuant to such subpoena or other legal process, (vii) as to any such information that is or becomes generally available to the public (other than as a result of
prohibited disclosure by Administrative Agent or the Lenders or the Lender Group Representatives), (viii) in connection with any assignment, participation or pledge of any Lender’s interest under this Agreement, provided that prior to
receipt of Confidential Information any such assignee, participant, or pledgee shall have agreed in writing to receive such Confidential Information either subject to the terms of this Section 17.9 or pursuant to confidentiality
requirements substantially similar to those contained in this Section 17.9 (and such Person may disclose such Confidential Information to Persons employed or engaged by them as described in clause (i) above),
(ix) in connection with any litigation or other adversary proceeding involving parties hereto which such litigation or adversary proceeding involves claims related to the rights or duties of such parties under this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents; provided, that, prior to any disclosure to any Person (other than any Loan Party, Administrative Agent, any Lender, any of their respective Affiliates, or their respective counsel) under this clause (ix) with
respect to litigation involving any Person (other than any Borrower, Administrative Agent, any Lender, any of their respective Affiliates, or their respective counsel), the disclosing party agrees to provide Borrowers with prior written notice
thereof, and (x) in connection with, and to the extent reasonably necessary for, the exercise of any secured creditor remedy under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document. As used in this Section 17.9(a),
“Confidential  

  
 95 

 
Information” means all information received from AXE or any Subsidiary of AXE relating to AXE or any Subsidiary of AXE or its business, other than any such information that is
available to Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, or any Lender on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by AXE or any Subsidiary of AXE and other than information pertaining to this Agreement
routinely provided by arrangers to data service providers, including league table providers, that serve the lending industry. 
 (b)
Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, Administrative Agent may disclose information concerning the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to loan syndication and pricing reporting services or in its
marketing or promotional materials, with such information to consist of deal terms and other information customarily found in such publications or marketing or promotional materials and may otherwise use the name, logos, and other insignia of any
Borrower or the other Loan Parties and the Commitments provided hereunder in any “tombstone” or other advertisements, on its website or in other marketing materials of Administrative Agent. 

(c) The Loan Parties hereby acknowledge that Administrative Agent or its Affiliates may make available to the Lenders materials or information
provided by or on behalf of Borrowers hereunder (collectively, “Borrower Materials”) by posting the Borrower Materials on IntraLinks, SyndTrak or another similar electronic system (the “Platform”) and certain of the
Lenders may be “public-side” Lenders (i.e., Lenders that do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to the Loan Parties or their securities) (each, a “Public Lender”). The Loan Parties shall be
deemed to have authorized Administrative Agent and its Affiliates and the Lenders to treat Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” or otherwise at any time filed with the SEC as not containing any material non-public information with respect to
the Loan Parties or their securities for purposes of United States federal and state securities laws. All Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated as “Public
Investor” (or another similar term). Administrative Agent and its Affiliates and the Lenders shall be entitled to treat any Borrower Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” or that are not at any time filed with the SEC as being
suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not marked as “Public Investor” (or such other similar term). 
 17.10
Survival. All representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be
considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents 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 Administrative Agent, Issuing Bank, or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or Event of 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 or unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and
so long as the Commitments have not expired or been terminated. 
 17.11 Patriot Act. Each Lender that is subject to the
requirements of the Patriot Act hereby notifies Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Borrower, which information includes the name and address of each
Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify each Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act. In addition, if Administrative Agent is required by law or regulation or internal policies to

  
 96 

 
do so, it shall have the right to periodically conduct (a) Patriot Act searches, OFAC/PEP searches, and customary individual background checks for the Loan Parties and (b) OFAC/PEP
searches and customary individual background checks for the Loan Parties’ senior management and key principals, and each Borrower agrees to cooperate in respect of the conduct of such searches and further agrees that the reasonable costs and
charges for such searches shall constitute Lender Group Expenses hereunder and be for the account of Borrowers. 
 17.12
Integration. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, reflects the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and shall not be contradicted or qualified by any other
agreement, oral or written, before the date hereof. The foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, all Bank Product Agreements, if any, are independent agreements governed by the written provisions of such Bank Product Agreements, which will remain
in full force and effect, unaffected by any repayment, prepayments, acceleration, reduction, increase, or change in the terms of any credit extended hereunder, except as otherwise expressly provided in such Bank Product Agreement. 

  
 97 

 17.13 Borrower Representative. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Anixter as
the borrowing agent and attorney-in-fact for all Borrowers (the “Borrower Representative”) which appointment shall remain in full force and effect unless and until Administrative Agent shall have received prior written notice signed
by each Borrower that such appointment has been revoked and that another Borrower has been appointed Borrower Representative. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Borrower Representative (a) to provide Administrative
Agent with all notices with respect to Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit obtained for the benefit of any Borrower and all other notices and instructions under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (and any notice or instruction provided by
Borrower Representative shall be deemed to be given by Borrowers hereunder and shall bind each Borrower), (b) to receive notices and instructions from members of the Lender Group (and any notice or instruction provided by any member of the
Lender Group to the Borrower Representative in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been given to each Borrower), and (c) to take such action as the Borrower Representative deems appropriate on its behalf to obtain Revolving
Loans and Letters of Credit and to exercise such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto to carry out the purposes of this Agreement. It is understood that the handling of the Loan Account and Collateral in a combined fashion, as more
fully set forth herein, is done solely as an accommodation to Borrowers in order to utilize the collective borrowing powers of Borrowers in the most efficient and economical manner and at their request, and that Lender Group shall not incur
liability to any Borrower as a result hereof. Each Borrower expects to derive benefit, directly or indirectly, from the handling of the Loan Account and the Collateral in a combined fashion since the successful operation of each Borrower is
dependent on the continued successful performance of the integrated group. To induce the Lender Group to do so, and in consideration thereof, each Borrower hereby jointly and severally agrees to indemnify each member of the Lender Group and hold
each member of the Lender Group harmless against any and all liability, expense, loss or claim of damage or injury, made against the Lender Group by any Borrower or by any third party whosoever, arising from or incurred by reason of (i) the
handling of the Loan Account and Collateral of Borrowers as herein provided, or (ii) the Lender Group’s relying on any instructions of the Borrower Representative, except that Borrowers will have no liability to the relevant Administrative
Agent-Related Person or Lender-Related Person under this Section 17.13 with respect to any liability that has been finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted solely from the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of such Administrative Agent-Related Person or Lender-Related Person, as the case may be.
