plural forms of the terms defined. Whenever the context may require, any pronoun shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms. The words “include,” “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to
be followed by the phrase “without limitation.” The word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall.” Unless the context requires otherwise, (a) any definition of or reference
to any agreement, instrument or other document herein shall be construed as referring to such agreement, instrument or other document as from time to time amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified (subject to any restrictions on such
amendments, supplements or modifications set forth herein), (b) any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person’s successors and assigns, (c) the words “herein,” “hereof” and
“hereunder,” and words of similar import, shall be construed to refer to this Agreement in its entirety and not to any particular provision hereof, (d) all references herein to Sections, Schedules and Exhibits shall be construed to

 Section 1.05 Currency Equivalents. Except as otherwise specified herein, all references herein or
in any other Loan Document to a dollar amount shall mean such amount in U.S. Dollars or, if the context so requires, the Dollar Equivalent of such amount in any Designated Foreign Currency. The Dollar Equivalent of any amount shall be determined in
accordance with the definition of “Dollar Equivalent”; provided, however, that (a) notwithstanding the foregoing or anything elsewhere in this Agreement to the contrary, in calculating the Dollar Equivalent of any amount
for purposes of determining (i) any Borrower’s obligation to prepay Loans or cash collateralize Letters of Credit pursuant to 2.15(b), or (ii) any Borrower’s ability to request additional Loans or Letters of Credit pursuant to
the Commitments, the Global Agent may, in its discretion, calculate the Dollar Equivalent of such amount on any Business Day selected by the Global Agent, and (b) in determining whether or not the Company and its Subsidiaries have exceeded any
basket limitation set forth in Section 7.02, Section 7.04 or Section 7.05, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not be deemed to have exceeded any such basket limitation to the extent that, and only to the extent that, any such basket limitation
was exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate applicable to any Designated Foreign Currency. 
 ARTICLE II. 

THE TERMS OF THE CREDIT FACILITY 
 Section
2.01 Establishment of the Credit Facility. On the Closing Date, and subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the Global Agent, the Lenders, the Swing Line Lender and each LC Issuer
agree to establish the Credit Facility for the benefit of the Borrowers pursuant to which (a) subject to Section 2.02(b), the Revolving Lenders shall make Revolving Loans to each Revolving Facility Borrower, and shall participate in
Revolving Facility LC Issuances, under the Revolving Facility pursuant to the Revolving Commitment of each such Lender, (b) the Canadian Lenders shall make Canadian Revolving Loans to the Canadian Borrowers, and shall participate in Canadian LC
Issuances, under the Canadian Sub-Facility pursuant to the Canadian Commitment, (c) the Term Lenders shall make Term Loans pursuant to the Term Commitment of each such Lender, and (d) the Swing Line Lender shall make Swing Loans to the
Company under the Swing Line Facility pursuant to the Swing Line Commitment; provided, however that at no time will (i) the Aggregate Credit Facility Exposure exceed the Maximum Credit Facility Amount, or (ii) the Credit
Facility Exposure of any Lender exceed the aggregate amount of such Lender’s Commitment. All such Loans shall be made, and such Letters of Credit shall be issued, as set forth in this Article II. 
 Section 2.02 Revolving Facility. 
 (a) In General. Subject to Section 2.02(b), during the Revolving Facility Availability Period, each Revolving Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to make a Revolving Loan or
Revolving Loans to each Revolving Facility Borrower from time to time pursuant to such Lender’s Revolving Commitment, which Revolving Loans (i) may, except as set forth herein, at the option of each Revolving Facility Borrower, be incurred
and maintained as, or Converted into, Revolving Loans that are US Base Rate Loans, Eurodollar Loans or Foreign Currency Loans, in each case denominated in Dollars or a Designated Foreign Currency, provided that all Revolving Loans made as
part of the same Revolving Borrowing shall, unless otherwise specifically provided herein, be made to the same Revolving Facility Borrower and consist of Revolving Loans of the same Type; (ii) may be repaid or prepaid and re-borrowed in
accordance with the provisions hereof; and (iii) shall not be made if, after giving effect to any such Revolving Loan, (A) the Revolving Facility Exposure of any Lender would exceed such Lender’s Revolving Commitment, (B) the
Aggregate Revolving Facility Exposure would exceed the Total Revolving Commitment, (C) the Foreign Currency Exposure would exceed the Maximum Foreign Exposure Amount, (D) the Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Exposure would exceed the Maximum
Foreign Exposure Amount, or (E) any Borrower would be required to prepay Loans or cash 

  

 35 

 
collateralize Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.16(c). The Revolving Loans (other than Foreign Currency Loans) to be made by each Lender will be made
by such Lender in the Funding Amount applicable to such Lender at the time of the making of such Revolving Loan on a pro rata basis based upon such Lender’s Funding Percentage of the Revolving Borrowing at the time of such Revolving
Borrowing, in each case in accordance with Section 2.09. 
 (b) Foreign Currency Loans. Any Revolving Facility Borrower may request
Foreign Currency Loans in an amount, when added to all then outstanding Foreign Currency Loans, not to exceed the Maximum Foreign Exposure Amount by delivering to the Global Agent a Notice of Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.08(b). The
Global Agent shall deliver a copy of such Notice of Borrowing to each Revolving Lender. Each Revolving Lender shall, by notice to the Company and the Global Agent given not more than five Business Days after the date of the Global Agent’s
notice, either agree to make the Foreign Currency Loans requested in such Notice of Borrowing (each such Lender so agreeing being an “Accepting Lender”) or decline to make such Foreign Currency Loans (and any such Lender that does
not deliver such a notice within such period of five Business Days shall be deemed to have declined to make such Foreign Currency Loans and each Lender so declining or being deemed to have declined being a “Declining Lender”). No
Revolving Lender is obligated to make any Foreign Currency Loan. If, on the second Business Day after the Global Agent shall have delivered notice as set forth above, either there are no Accepting Lenders or the Accepting Lenders have agreed
pursuant to the preceding sentence to fund less than the full amount of the Foreign Currency Loans requested in such Notice of Borrowing, the Company may arrange for one or more banks or other entities that are Eligible Assignees, in each case
reasonably acceptable to the Global Agent (each such Person so agreeing being an “Augmenting Lender”), to commit to making Foreign Currency Loans pursuant to a Revolving Commitment, provided that at the time such Augmenting
Lender commits to making such Foreign Currency Loans the Company arranges for one or more Revolving Lenders to assign all or a portion of its Revolving Commitment to such Accepting Lender or Augmenting Lender, as applicable, in accordance with
Section 11.05(c). No Revolving Lender is obligated to make any such assignment. Each of the parties hereto agrees that the Global Agent may take any and all actions as may be reasonably necessary to ensure that after giving effect to the making
of any Foreign Currency Loan the outstanding Revolving Loans (if any) are held by the Revolving Lenders in accordance with their new Fixed Commitment Percentages. 
 Section 2.03 Canadian Sub-Facility. At any time after a Canadian Borrower has become a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under this Agreement in accordance with Section 2.19 and thereafter during the remaining
Revolving Facility Availability Period, each Canadian Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to make a Canadian Revolving Loan or Canadian Revolving Loans to the Canadian Borrowers from time to time
pursuant to such Canadian Lender’s Canadian Commitment, which Canadian Revolving Loans (i) may, except as set forth herein, at the option of the Canadian Borrowers, be incurred and maintained as, or Converted into, Canadian Revolving Loans
that are Canadian Base Rate Loans or BA Equivalent Loans, in each case denominated in Canadian Dollars, provided that all Canadian Revolving Loans made as part of the same Canadian Borrowing shall, unless otherwise specifically provided
herein, consist of Canadian Revolving Loans of the same Type; (ii) may be repaid or prepaid and re-borrowed in accordance with the provisions hereof; and (iii) shall not be made if, after giving effect to any such Canadian Revolving Loan,
(A) the Canadian Sub-Facility Exposure of any Canadian Lender would exceed such Canadian Lender’s Canadian Commitment, (B) the Aggregate Canadian Sub-Facility Exposure would exceed the Total Canadian Commitment, (C) the Foreign
Currency Exposure would exceed the Maximum Foreign Exposure Amount, (D) the Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Exposure would exceed the Maximum Foreign Exposure Amount, or (E) any Borrower would be required to prepay Loans or cash collateralize
Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.16(c). The Canadian Revolving Loans to be made by each Canadian Lender will be made on a pro rata basis based upon each Canadian Lender’s Canadian Commitment Percentage of each Canadian Borrowing,
in each case in accordance with Section 2.09. 
  

 36 

 Section 2.04 Term Loan. During the Term Loan Availability Period, each Term Lender severally
agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to make a Term Loan to the Company pursuant to such Lender’s Term Commitment, which Term Loans: (i) can only be incurred during the Term Loan Availability Period;
(ii) once prepaid or repaid, may not be reborrowed, (iii) may, except as set forth herein, at the option of the Company, be incurred and maintained as, or Converted into, Term Loans that are US Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Loans, in each
case denominated in Dollars, provided that all Term Loans made as part of the same Term Borrowing shall consist of Term Loans of the same Type; (iv) shall be repaid in accordance with Section 2.16(b); and (v) not be made if, after
giving effect to any such Term Loan (A) the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans made by any Lender would exceed such Lender’s Term Commitment, (B) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans would exceed the
Total Term Loan Commitment, and (C) any Borrower would be required to prepay Loans or cash collateralize Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.16(c). The Term Loans to be made by each Term Lender will be made by such Lender on a pro
rata basis based upon such Lender’s Term Loan Percentage of each Term Borrowing, in each case in accordance with Section 2.09. 
 Section 2.05 Swing Line Facility. 
 (a) Swing Loans. During the Revolving Facility Availability Period, the Swing
Line Lender agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to make a Swing Loan or Swing Loans to the Company from time to time, which Swing Loans (i) may not be made if there are any Canadian Revolving Loans outstanding and,
notwithstanding the Swing Loan Maturity Date applicable to any Swing Loan, shall be repaid on the date that any Canadian Revolving Loans are to be made, (ii) shall be made only in Dollars; (iii) except as set forth in subpart
(i) above, shall be payable on the Swing Loan Maturity Date applicable to each such Swing Loan; (iv) may be repaid or prepaid and reborrowed in accordance with the provisions hereof; (v) may only be made if after giving effect thereto
(A) the aggregate principal amount of Swing Loans outstanding does not exceed the Swing Line Commitment, or (B) the Aggregate Revolving Facility Exposure would not exceed the Total Revolving Commitment; and (vi) shall not be made if,
after giving effect thereto, any Borrower would be required to prepay Loans or cash collateralize Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.16(c). 
 (b) Swing Loan Refunding. On any Adjustment Date or upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Swing Line Lender may, in its sole and absolute discretion, direct that the Swing Loans owing to it be refunded by delivering a
notice to such effect to the Global Agent, specifying the aggregate principal amount thereof (a “Notice of Swing Line Refunding”). Promptly upon receipt of a Notice of Swing Line Refunding, the Global Agent shall give notice of the
contents thereof to the Revolving Lenders and, unless an Event of Default specified in Section 8.01(h) in respect of the Company has occurred, the Company. Each such Notice of Swing Line Refunding shall be deemed to constitute delivery by the
Company of a Notice of Borrowing requesting Revolving Loans consisting of US Base Rate Loans in the principal amount of the Swing Loans to which it relates. Each Revolving Lender (including the Swing Line Lender) hereby unconditionally agrees
(notwithstanding that any of the conditions specified in Section 4.03 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall not have been satisfied, but subject to the provisions of paragraph (d) below) to make a Revolving Loan to the Company in the Funding
Amount applicable to such Lender based on such Lender’s Funding Percentage of the aggregate amount of the Swing Loans to which such Notice of Swing Line Refunding relates. Each such Lender shall make the amount of such Revolving Loan available
to the Global Agent in immediately available funds at the Payment Office not later than 2:00 P.M. (local time at the Payment Office), if such notice is received by such Lender prior to 11:00 A.M. (local time at its Domestic Lending Office), or not
later than 2:00 P.M. (local time at the Payment Office) on the next Business Day, if such notice is received by such Lender after such time. The proceeds of such Revolving Loans shall be made immediately available to the Swing Line Lender and
applied by it to repay the principal amount of the Swing Loans to which such Notice of Swing Line Refunding related.
  

 37 

 (c) Swing Loan Participation. If, prior to the time a Revolving Loan would otherwise have been
made as provided above as a consequence of a Notice of Swing Line Refunding, any of the events specified in Section 8.01(h) shall have occurred in respect of the Company or one or more of the Revolving Lenders shall determine that it is legally
prohibited from making a Revolving Loan under such circumstances, each Revolving Lender (other than the Swing Line Lender), or each Revolving Lender (other than such Swing Line Lender) so prohibited, as the case may be, shall, on the date such
Revolving Loan would have been made by it (the “Purchase Date”), purchase an undivided participating interest (a “Swing Loan Participation”) in the outstanding Swing Loans to which such Notice of Swing Line
Refunding related, in an amount (the “Swing Line Participation Amount”) equal to such Lender’s Funding Percentage of such outstanding Swing Loans. On the Purchase Date, each such Lender or each such Lender so prohibited, as the
case may be, shall pay to the Swing Line Lender, in immediately available funds, such Lender’s Swing Line Participation Amount, and promptly upon receipt thereof the Swing Line Lender shall, if requested by such other Lender, deliver to such
Lender a participation certificate, dated the date of the Swing Line Lender’s receipt of the funds from, and evidencing such Lender’s Swing Loan Participation in, such Swing Loans and its Swing Line Participation Amount in respect thereof.
If any amount required to be paid by a Lender to the Swing Line Lender pursuant to the above provisions in respect of any Swing Loan Participation is not paid on the date such payment is due, such Lender shall pay to the Swing Line Lender on demand
interest on the amount not so paid at the overnight Federal Funds Effective Rate from the due date until such amount is paid in full. Whenever, at any time after the Swing Line Lender has received from any other Lender such Lender’s Swing Line
Participation Amount, the Swing Line Lender receives any payment from or on behalf of the Company on account of the related Swing Loans, the Swing Line Lender will promptly distribute to such Lender its ratable share of such amount based on its
Payment Sharing Percentage of such amount in effect on such date on account of its Swing Loan Participation (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s participating
interest was outstanding and funded); provided, however, that if such payment received by the Swing Line Lender is required to be returned, such Lender will return to the Swing Line Lender any portion thereof previously distributed to it by
the Swing Line Lender. 
 (d) Obligations Unconditional. Each Revolving Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans pursuant to
Section 2.05(b) and/or to purchase Swing Loan Participations in connection with a Notice of Swing Line Refunding shall be subject to the conditions that (i) such Lender shall have received a Notice of Swing Line Refunding complying with the
provisions hereof and (ii) at the time the Swing Loans that are the subject of such Notice of Swing Line Refunding were made, the Swing Line Lender making the same had no actual written notice from another Lender that an Event of Default had
occurred and was continuing, but otherwise shall be absolute and unconditional, shall be solely for the benefit of the Swing Line Lender that gives such Notice of Swing Line Refunding, and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including,
without limitation, (A) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Lender may have against any other Lender, any Credit Party, or any other Person, or any Credit Party may have against any Lender or other Person, as
the case may be, for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or Event of Default; (C) any event or circumstance involving a Material Adverse Effect upon the Borrowers; (D) any breach of any Loan Document
by any party thereto; or (E) any other circumstance, happening or event, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. 
 Section 2.06
Revolving Facility Letters of Credit. 
 (a) Revolving Facility LC Issuance. During the Revolving Facility Availability Period,
the Company may request a LC Issuer at any time and from time to time to issue, for the account of the Company, any other Revolving Facility Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor, and subject to and upon the terms and conditions herein set forth,
each LC Issuer agrees to issue from time to time Revolving 

  

 38 

 
Facility Letters of Credit denominated and payable in Dollars or any Designated Foreign Currency and in each case in such form as may be approved by such LC
Issuer and the Global Agent; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, no Revolving Facility LC Issuance shall be made if, after giving effect thereto, (A) the Revolving Facility LC Outstandings would exceed the
Revolving Facility LC Commitment Amount, (B) the Revolving Facility Exposure of any Lender would exceed such Lender’s Revolving Commitment, (C) the Aggregate Revolving Facility Exposure would exceed the Total Revolving Commitment,
(D) the Foreign Currency Exposure would exceed the Maximum Foreign Exposure Amount, (E) the Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Exposure would exceed the Maximum Foreign Exposure Amount, or (F) any Borrower would be required to prepay Loans
or cash collateralize Revolving Facility Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.16(c). Subject to Section 2.06(c) below, each Revolving Facility Letter of Credit shall have an expiry date (including any renewal periods) occurring not later than the
earlier of (x) one year from the date of issuance thereof, and (y) 30 Business Days prior to the Revolving Facility Termination Date. 
 (b) Revolving Facility LC Requests. Whenever the Company desires that a Revolving Facility Letter of Credit be issued for its account or the account of any eligible LC Obligor, the Company shall give the applicable LC Issuer, and
shall give or cause to be given to the Global Agent, written or telephonic notice (in the case of telephonic notice, promptly confirmed in writing if so requested by the Global Agent) which, if in the form of written notice shall be substantially in
the form of Exhibit B-3 (each such request, a “Revolving Facility LC Request”), or transmit by electronic communication (if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the applicable LC Issuer), prior to 11:00 A.M. (local
time at the Notice Office) at least three Business Days (or such shorter period as may be acceptable to the relevant LC Issuer) prior to the proposed date of issuance (which shall be a Business Day), which Revolving Facility LC Request shall include
such supporting documents that such LC Issuer customarily requires in connection therewith (including, in the case of a Revolving Facility Letter of Credit for an account party other than a Revolving Facility Borrower, an application for, and if
applicable a reimbursement agreement with respect to, such Revolving Facility Letter of Credit). In the event of any inconsistency between any of the terms or provisions of any LC Document relating to any Revolving Facility Letter of Credit and the
terms and provisions of this Agreement respecting Revolving Facility Letters of Credit, the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall control. 
 (c) Auto-Renewal Letters of Credit. If an LC Obligor so requests in any applicable Revolving Facility LC Request, each LC Issuer shall agree to issue a Revolving Facility Letter of Credit that has automatic renewal provisions;
provided, however, that any Revolving Facility Letter of Credit that has automatic renewal provisions must permit such LC Issuer to prevent any such renewal at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of
issuance of such Revolving Facility Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Revolving Facility Letter of Credit is issued. Once any
such Revolving Facility Letter of Credit that has automatic renewal provisions has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) such LC Issuer to permit the renewal of such Revolving Facility Letter of Credit at
any time to an expiry date not later than 30 Business Days prior to the Revolving Facility Termination Date; provided, however, that such LC Issuer shall not permit any such renewal if (i) such LC Issuer has determined that it
would have no obligation at such time to issue such Revolving Facility Letter of Credit in its renewed form under the terms hereof, or (ii) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is two
Business Days before the date that such LC Issuer is permitted to send a notice of non-renewal from the Global Agent, any Lender or the Company that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.03 is not then satisfied.

 (d) Existing Letters of Credit. On and after the Closing Date, each Existing Letter of Credit shall be deemed to have been issued
by the Lender that issued such Existing Letter of Credit and such 

  

 39 

 
Lender shall be deemed to be the “LC Issuer” with respect to such Existing Letter of Credit pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and each
Existing Letter of Credit shall constitute a Revolving Facility Letter of Credit for all purposes hereof and under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Company agrees that it shall be liable with respect to any drawing made under any of
the Existing Letters of Credit in accordance with this Section and the other provisions of this Agreement. Each LC Issuer of an Existing Letter of Credit agrees that on and after the Closing Date (i) the fees applicable to each Existing Letter
of Credit shall be the fees set forth in Section 2.14, and (ii) any reimbursement agreement in effect with respect to each Existing Letter of Credit shall be deemed terminated and each Existing Letter of Credit shall be governed by and subject
to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 
 (e) Applicability of ISP98 and UCP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the
applicable LC Issuer and the applicable LC Obligor, when a Revolving Facility Letter of Credit is issued, (i) the rules of the “International Standby Practices 1998” published by the Institute of International Banking Law &
Practice (or such later version thereof as may be in effect at the time of issuance) shall apply to each Standby Letter of Credit, and (ii) the rules of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, as most recently published by the
International Chamber of Commerce at the time of issuance (including the International Chamber of Commerce’s decision published by the Commission on Banking Technique and Practice on April 6, 1998 regarding the European single currency
(euro)) shall apply to each Commercial Letter of Credit. 
 (f) Notice of Revolving Facility LC Issuance. Each LC Issuer shall, on the
date of each Revolving Facility LC Issuance by it, give the Global Agent, each applicable Lender and the Company written notice of such Revolving Facility LC Issuance which shall specify whether such Revolving Facility Letter of Credit is a
Commercial Letter of Credit or a Standby Letter of Credit and be accompanied by a copy to the Global Agent of the Revolving Facility Letter of Credit or Revolving Facility Letters of Credit issued by it. Each LC Issuer shall provide to the Global
Agent and each Lender a quarterly (or monthly if requested by any applicable Lender) summary describing each Revolving Facility Letter of Credit issued by such LC Issuer and then outstanding and an identification for the relevant period of the daily
aggregate Revolving Facility LC Outstandings represented by Revolving Facility Letters of Credit issued by such LC Issuer. 
 (g)
Defaulting Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event a Lender Default exists, no LC Issuer shall be required to make any Revolving Facility LC Issuance unless either (i) such LC Issuer has entered into arrangements satisfactory
to it and the Company to eliminate such LC Issuer’s risk with respect to the Revolving Facility LC Participations of the Defaulting Lender or Defaulting Lenders, including by cash collateralizing such Defaulting Lender’s or Defaulting
Lenders’ Funding Percentage of the Revolving Facility LC Outstandings; or (ii) such Revolving Facility LC Issuance, taking into account the potential failure of the Defaulting Lender or Defaulting Lenders to risk participate therein, will
not cause such LC Issuer to incur aggregate credit exposure hereunder with respect to Revolving Loans and Revolving Facility LC Outstandings in excess of its Commitments, and the Company has undertaken, for the benefit of such LC Issuer, pursuant to
an instrument satisfactory in form and substance to such LC Issuer, not to thereafter incur Loans or Revolving Facility LC Outstandings hereunder that would cause such LC Issuer to incur aggregate credit exposure hereunder with respect to Revolving
Loans and Revolving Facility LC Outstandings in excess of its Commitments. 
 (h) Reimbursement Obligations. 
 (i) Each Revolving Facility Borrower hereby agrees to reimburse (or cause any LC Obligor for whose account a Revolving Facility Letter of
Credit was issued to reimburse) each LC Issuer, by making payment directly to such LC Issuer in immediately available funds at the payment office of such LC Issuer, for any Unpaid Drawing with respect to any Revolving Facility 

  

 40 

 
Letter of Credit immediately after, and in any event on the date on which, such LC Issuer notifies the Company (or any such other LC Obligor for whose
account such Revolving Facility Letter of Credit was issued) of such payment or disbursement (which notice to the Company (or such other LC Obligor) shall be delivered reasonably promptly after any such payment or disbursement, such payment to be
made in Dollars or in the applicable Designated Foreign Currency in which such Revolving Facility Letter of Credit is denominated, with interest on the amount so paid or disbursed by such LC Issuer, to the extent not reimbursed prior to 1:00 P.M.
(local time at the payment office of the applicable LC Issuer) on the date of such payment or disbursement, from and including the date paid or disbursed to but not including the date such LC Issuer is reimbursed therefor at a rate per annum that
shall be the rate then applicable to Revolving Loans that are US Base Rate Loans (plus an additional 2% per annum if not reimbursed on the date of such payment or disbursement), any such interest also to be payable on demand. If by 11:00 A.M.
on the Business Day immediately following notice to it of its obligation to make reimbursement in respect of an Unpaid Drawing, the Company or the relevant LC Obligor has not made such reimbursement out of its available cash on hand or a
contemporaneous Borrowing hereunder (if such Borrowing is otherwise available to the Company or such LC Obligor), (x) the Company, or if the LC Obligor is a Foreign Revolving Facility Borrower, such Foreign Revolving Facility Borrower, will in
each case be deemed to have given a Notice of Borrowing for Revolving Loans that are US Base Rate Loans in an aggregate Dollar Equivalent principal amount sufficient to reimburse such Unpaid Drawing (and the Global Agent shall promptly give notice
to the Lenders of such deemed Notice of Borrowing), (y) the Lenders shall (subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Section 4.03 (other than the delivery of a Notice of Borrowing)), unless they are legally
prohibited from doing so, make the Revolving Loans contemplated by such deemed Notice of Borrowing (which Revolving Loans shall be considered made under Section 2.02), and (z) the proceeds of such Revolving Loans shall be disbursed directly to
the applicable LC Issuer to the extent necessary to effect such reimbursement, with any excess proceeds to be made available to the applicable Borrower in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement. 
 (ii) Obligations Absolute. Each LC Obligor’s obligation under this Section to reimburse each LC Issuer with respect to Unpaid
Drawings (including, in each case, interest thereon) shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment that such LC Obligor may have or have had against such LC
Issuer, the Global Agent or any Lender, including, without limitation, any defense based upon the failure of any drawing under a Revolving Facility Letter of Credit to conform to the terms of the Revolving Facility Letter of Credit or any
non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary of the proceeds of such drawing; provided, however, that no LC Obligor shall be obligated to reimburse a LC Issuer for any wrongful payment made by such LC Issuer under a Revolving
Facility Letter of Credit as a result of acts or omissions constituting willful misconduct or gross negligence on the part of such LC Issuer. 
 (i) Revolving Facility LC Participations. 
 (i) Immediately upon each Revolving Facility LC Issuance, the LC
Issuer of such Revolving Facility Letter of Credit shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to each Revolving Lender, and each such Lender (each a “Revolving Facility LC Participant”) shall be deemed irrevocably and
unconditionally to have purchased and received from such LC Issuer, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation (a “Revolving Facility LC Participation”), to the extent of such Lender’s Funding
Percentage of the Stated Amount of such Revolving Facility Letter of Credit in effect at such time of issuance, in such Revolving Facility Letter of Credit, each substitute letter of credit, each drawing made thereunder, the obligations of 

  

 41 

 
any LC Obligor under this Agreement with respect thereto (although LC Fees relating thereto shall be payable directly to the Global Agent for the account of
the Lenders as provided in Section 2.14 and the Revolving Facility LC Participants shall have no right to receive any portion of any fees of the nature contemplated by Section 2.14(e)), the obligations of any LC Obligor under any LC Documents
pertaining thereto, and any security for, or guaranty pertaining to, any of the foregoing. 
 (ii) In determining whether to
pay under any Revolving Facility Letter of Credit, a LC Issuer shall not have any obligation relative to the Revolving Facility LC Participants other than to determine that any documents required to be delivered under such Revolving Facility Letter
of Credit have been delivered and that they appear to comply on their face with the requirements of such Revolving Facility Letter of Credit. Any action taken or omitted to be taken by a LC Issuer under or in connection with any Revolving Facility
Letter of Credit, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall not create for such LC Issuer any resulting liability. 
 (iii) In the event that a LC Issuer makes any payment under any Revolving Facility Letter of Credit and the applicable LC Obligor shall
not have reimbursed such amount in full to such LC Issuer pursuant to Section 2.06(h) (by a Revolving Loan or otherwise), such LC Issuer shall promptly notify the Global Agent, and the Global Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Facility LC
Participant, of such failure, and each Revolving Facility LC Participant shall promptly and unconditionally pay to the Global Agent for the account of such LC Issuer, the amount of such Revolving Facility LC Participant’s Funding Percentage of
such payment in Dollars or in the applicable Designated Foreign Currency (unless the Global Agent agrees to payment in Dollars) in which such Revolving Facility Letter of Credit is denominated and in same day funds; provided, however,
that no Revolving Facility LC Participant shall be obligated to pay to the Global Agent its Funding Percentage of such unreimbursed amount for any wrongful payment made by such LC Issuer under a Revolving Facility Letter of Credit as a result of
acts or omissions constituting willful misconduct or gross negligence on the part of such LC Issuer. If the Global Agent so notifies any Revolving Facility LC Participant required to fund a payment under a Revolving Facility Letter of Credit prior
to 11:00 A.M. (local time at its Notice Office) on any Business Day, such Revolving Facility LC Participant shall make available to the Global Agent for the account of the relevant LC Issuer such Revolving Facility LC Participant’s Funding
Percentage of the amount of such payment on such Business Day in same day funds. If and to the extent such Revolving Facility LC Participant shall not have so made its Funding Percentage of the amount of such payment available to the Global Agent
for the account of the relevant LC Issuer, such Revolving Facility LC Participant agrees to pay to the Global Agent for the account of such LC Issuer forthwith on demand such amount, together with interest thereon, for each day from such date until
the date such amount is paid to the Global Agent for the account of such LC Issuer at the Federal Funds Effective Rate. The failure of any Revolving Facility LC Participant to make available to the Global Agent for the account of the relevant LC
Issuer its Funding Percentage of any payment under any Revolving Facility Letter of Credit shall not relieve any other Revolving Facility LC Participant of its obligation hereunder to make available to the Global Agent for the account of such LC
Issuer its Funding Percentage of any payment under any Revolving Facility Letter of Credit on the date required, as specified above, but no Revolving Facility LC Participant shall be responsible for the failure of any other Revolving Facility LC
Participant to make available to the Global Agent for the account of such LC Issuer such other Revolving Facility LC Participant’s Funding Percentage of any such payment. 
 (iv) Whenever a LC Issuer receives a payment of a reimbursement obligation from an LC Obligor as to which the Global Agent has received
for the account of such LC Issuer any 

  

 42 

 
payments from the Revolving Facility LC Participants pursuant to subpart (iii) above, such LC Issuer shall pay to the Global Agent and the Global Agent
shall promptly pay to each Revolving Facility LC Participant that has paid its applicable Funding Percentage thereof, in same day funds, an amount equal to such Revolving Facility LC Participant’s applicable Payment Sharing Percentage of the
principal amount thereof and interest thereon accruing after the purchase of the respective Revolving Facility LC Participations, as and to the extent so received. 
 (v) The obligations of the Revolving Facility LC Participants to make payments to the Global Agent for the account of each LC Issuer with
respect to Revolving Facility Letters of Credit shall be irrevocable and not subject to counterclaim, set-off or other defense or any other qualification or exception whatsoever and shall be made in accordance with the terms and conditions of this
Agreement under all circumstances, including, without limitation, any of the following circumstances: 
 (A) any lack of validity or
enforceability of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents; 
 (B) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right that
any LC Obligor may have at any time against a beneficiary named in a Revolving Facility Letter of Credit, any transferee of any Revolving Facility Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), the Global Agent, any LC
Issuer, any Lender, or other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any Revolving Facility Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transaction between the applicable
LC Obligor and the beneficiary named in any such Revolving Facility Letter of Credit), other than any claim that the applicable LC Obligor may have against any applicable LC Issuer for gross negligence or willful misconduct of such LC Issuer in
making payment under any applicable Revolving Facility Letter of Credit; 
 (C) any draft, certificate or other document presented under the
Revolving Facility Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; 
 (D) the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms of any of the Loan Documents; or 
 (E) the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default. 
 (vi) To the extent any LC Issuer is not indemnified by the Company or any LC Obligor, the Revolving Facility LC Participants will reimburse and indemnify such LC Issuer, in proportion to their respective Fixed
Commitment Percentages (determined at the time such indemnity is sought), for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, costs, expenses or disbursements of whatsoever kind or nature
that may be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by such LC Issuer in performing its respective duties in any way related to or arising out of Revolving Facility LC Issuances by it; provided, however, that no Revolving Facility LC
Participants shall be liable for (A) any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such LC Issuer’s gross negligence or willful
misconduct, or (B) any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the failure of any other 

  

 43 

 
Revolving Facility LC Participant to fund any Revolving Facility LC Participation pursuant to this Section. 
 Section 2.07 Canadian Letters of Credit. 
 (a) Canadian LC Issuance. At any time after a Canadian Borrower has become a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under this Agreement in accordance with Section 2.19 and thereafter during the remaining Revolving Facility Availability Period,
the Company may request a LC Issuer at any time and from time to time to issue, for the account of any Canadian Borrower, and subject to and upon the terms and conditions herein set forth, each LC Issuer agrees to issue from time to time Canadian
Letters of Credit denominated and payable in Canadian Dollars and in each case in such form as may be approved by such LC Issuer and the Global Agent; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, no Canadian LC Issuance shall
be made if (i) after giving effect thereto, (A) the Canadian LC Outstandings would exceed the Canadian LC Commitment Amount, (B) the Canadian Sub-Facility Exposure of any Canadian Lender would exceed such Canadian Lender’s
Canadian Commitment, (C) the Aggregate Canadian Sub-Facility Exposure would exceed the Total Canadian Commitment, (D) the Foreign Currency Exposure would exceed the Maximum Foreign Exposure Amount, (E) the Foreign Subsidiary Borrower
Exposure would exceed the Maximum Foreign Exposure Amount, or (F) any Borrower would be required to prepay Loans or cash collateralize Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.16(c). Subject to Section 2.07(c) below, each Canadian Letter of
Credit shall have an expiry date (including any renewal periods) occurring not later than the earlier of (x) one year from the date of issuance thereof, and (y) 30 Business Days prior to the Revolving Facility Termination Date. 

(b) Canadian LC Requests. Whenever the Company desires that a Letter of Credit be issued for the account of a Canadian Borrower, the Company
shall give the applicable LC Issuer, and shall give or cause to be given to the Global Agent, written or telephonic notice (in the case of telephonic notice, promptly confirmed in writing if so requested by the Global Agent) which, if in the form of
written notice shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit B-4 (each such request, a “Canadian LC Request”), or transmit by electronic communication (if arrangements for doing so have been approved by such LC Issuer), prior
to 11:00 A.M. (local time at the Notice Office) at least three Business Days (or such shorter period as may be acceptable to the relevant LC Issuer) prior to the proposed date of issuance (which shall be a Business Day), which Canadian LC Request
shall include such supporting documents that such LC Issuer customarily requires in connection therewith. In the event of any inconsistency between any of the terms or provisions of any LC Document relating to any Canadian Letter of Credit and the
terms and provisions of this Agreement respecting Canadian Letters of Credit, the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall control. 
 (c) Auto-Renewal Letters of Credit. If an LC Obligor so requests in any applicable Canadian LC Request, each LC Issuer shall agree to issue a Canadian Letter of Credit that has automatic renewal provisions; provided,
however, that any Canadian Letter of Credit that has automatic renewal provisions must permit such LC Issuer to prevent any such renewal at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Canadian Letter
of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Canadian Letter of Credit is issued. Once any such Canadian Letter of Credit that has automatic
renewal provisions has been issued, the Canadian Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) such LC Issuer to permit the renewal of such Canadian Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than 30 Business Days
prior to the Revolving Facility Termination Date; provided, however, that such LC Issuer shall not permit any such renewal if (i) such LC Issuer has determined that it would have no obligation at such time to issue such Canadian
Letter of Credit in its renewed form under the terms hereof, or (ii) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is two Business Days before the date that such LC Issuer is permitted to send a
notice of non- 

  

 44 

 
renewal from the Global Agent, any Lender or the Company that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.03 is not then satisfied.

 (d) Applicability of ISP98 and UCP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by a LC Issuer and the applicable LC Obligor, when a Canadian
Letter of Credit is issued, (i) the rules of the “International Standby Practices 1998” published by the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice (or such later version thereof as may be in effect at the time of
issuance) shall apply to each Standby Letter of Credit, and (ii) the rules of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, as most recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce at the time of issuance (including the
International Chamber of Commerce’s decision published by the Commission on Banking Technique and Practice on April 6, 1998 regarding the European single currency (euro)) shall apply to each Commercial Letter of Credit. 
 (e) Notice of Canadian LC Issuance. Each LC Issuer shall, on the date of each Canadian LC Issuance by it, give the Global Agent, each applicable
Lender and the Company written notice of such Canadian LC Issuance which shall specify whether such Canadian Letter of Credit is a Commercial Letter of Credit or a Standby Letter of Credit and be accompanied by a copy to the Global Agent of the
Canadian Letter of Credit or Canadian Letters of Credit issued by it. Each LC Issuer shall provide to the Global Agent and each Canadian Lender a quarterly (or monthly if requested by any applicable Lender) summary describing each Canadian Letter of
Credit issued by such LC Issuer and then outstanding and an identification for the relevant period of the daily aggregate Canadian LC Outstandings represented by Canadian Letters of Credit issued by such LC Issuer. 
 (f) Defaulting Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event a Lender Default exists, no LC Issuer shall be required to make any Canadian LC
Issuance unless either (i) such LC Issuer has entered into arrangements satisfactory to it and the Company to eliminate such LC Issuer’s risk with respect to the Canadian LC Participations of the Defaulting Lender or Defaulting Lenders,
including by cash collateralizing such Defaulting Lender’s or Defaulting Lenders’ Canadian Commitment Percentage of the Canadian LC Outstandings; or (ii) such Canadian LC Issuance, taking into account the potential failure of the
Defaulting Lender or Defaulting Lenders to risk participate therein, will not cause such LC Issuer to incur aggregate credit exposure hereunder with respect to Revolving Loans and Canadian LC Outstandings in excess of its Commitments, and the
Company has undertaken, for the benefit of such LC Issuer, pursuant to an instrument satisfactory in form and substance to such LC Issuer, not to thereafter incur Revolving Loans or Canadian LC Outstandings hereunder that would cause such LC Issuer
to incur aggregate credit exposure hereunder with respect to Revolving Loans and Canadian LC Outstandings in excess of its Commitments. 
 (g) Reimbursement Obligations. 
 (i) Each Canadian Borrower hereby agrees to reimburse each LC Issuer, by
making payment directly to such LC Issuer in immediately available funds at the payment office of such LC Issuer in Canada, for any Unpaid Drawings with respect to any Canadian Letter of Credit immediately after, and in any event on the date on
which, such LC Issuer notifies the Company and the applicable LC Obligor of such payment or disbursement (which notice to the Company or such Obligor shall be delivered reasonably promptly after any such payment or disbursement), such payment to be
made in Canadian Dollars, with interest on the amount so paid or disbursed by such LC Issuer, to the extent not reimbursed prior to 1:00 P.M. (local time at the payment office of the applicable LC Issuer in Canada) on the date of such payment or
disbursement, from and including the date paid or disbursed to but not including the date such LC Issuer is reimbursed therefor at a rate per annum that shall be the rate then applicable to Canadian Revolving Loans that are Canadian Base Rate Loans
(plus an additional 2% per annum if not 

  

 45 

 
reimbursed on the date of such payment or disbursement), any such interest also to be payable on demand. If by 11:00 A.M. on the Business Day immediately
following notice to it of its obligation to make reimbursement in respect of an Unpaid Drawing, the relevant LC Obligor has not made such reimbursement out of its available cash on hand or a contemporaneous Canadian Borrowing hereunder (if such
Canadian Borrowing is otherwise available to such LC Obligor), (x) the LC Obligor will in each case be deemed to have given a Notice of Borrowing for Canadian Revolving Loans that are Canadian Base Rate Loans in an aggregate Dollar Equivalent
principal amount sufficient to reimburse such Unpaid Drawing (and the Global Agent shall promptly give notice to the Canadian Lenders of such deemed Notice of Borrowing), (y) the Canadian Lenders shall, unless they are legally prohibited from
doing so, make the Canadian Revolving Loans contemplated by such deemed Notice of Borrowing (which Canadian Revolving Loans shall be considered made under Section 2.03), and (z) the proceeds of such Canadian Revolving Loans shall be disbursed
directly to the applicable LC Issuer to the extent necessary to effect such reimbursement, with any excess proceeds to be made available to the applicable Canadian Borrower in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement. 

(ii) Obligations Absolute. Each LC Obligor’s obligation under this Section to reimburse each LC Issuer with respect to
Unpaid Drawings (including, in each case, interest thereon) shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment that such LC Obligor may have or have had against such
LC Issuer, the Global Agent or any Lender, including, without limitation, any defense based upon the failure of any drawing under a Canadian Letter of Credit to conform to the terms of the Canadian Letter of Credit or any non-application or
misapplication by the beneficiary of the proceeds of such drawing; provided, however, that no LC Obligor shall be obligated to reimburse a LC Issuer for any wrongful payment made by such LC Issuer under a Canadian Letter of Credit as a
result of acts or omissions constituting willful misconduct or gross negligence on the part of such LC Issuer. 
 (h) Canadian LC
Participations. 
 (i) Immediately upon each Canadian LC Issuance, the LC Issuer of such Canadian Letter of Credit shall
be deemed to have sold and transferred to each Canadian Lender, and each such Canadian Lender (each a “Canadian LC Participant”) shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally to have purchased and received from such LC Issuer,
without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation (a “Canadian LC Participation”), to the extent of such Lender’s Canadian Commitment Percentage of the Stated Amount of such Canadian Letter of Credit in
effect at such time of issuance, in such Canadian Letter of Credit, each substitute letter of credit, each drawing made thereunder, the obligations of any LC Obligor under this Agreement with respect thereto (although LC Fees relating thereto shall
be payable directly to the Global Agent for the account of the Lenders as provided in Section 2.14 and the Canadian LC Participants shall have no right to receive any portion of any fees of the nature contemplated by Section 2.14(e)), the
obligations of any LC Obligor under any LC Documents pertaining thereto, and any security for, or guaranty pertaining to, any of the foregoing. 
 (ii) In determining whether to pay under any Canadian Letter of Credit, a LC Issuer shall not have any obligation relative to the Canadian LC Participants other than to determine that any documents required to be
delivered under such Canadian Letter of Credit have been delivered and that they appear to comply on their face with the requirements of such Canadian Letter of Credit. Any action taken or omitted to be taken by a LC Issuer under or in connection
with any Canadian Letter of Credit, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall not create for such LC Issuer any resulting liability. 
  

 46 

 (iii) In the event that a LC Issuer makes any payment under any Canadian Letter of Credit
and the applicable LC Obligor shall not have reimbursed such amount in full to such LC Issuer pursuant to Section 2.07(g), such LC Issuer shall promptly notify the Global Agent, and the Global Agent shall promptly notify each Canadian LC Participant
of such failure, and each Canadian LC Participant shall promptly and unconditionally pay to the Global Agent at the Canadian Payment Office for the account of such LC Issuer, the amount of such Canadian LC Participant’s Canadian Commitment
Percentage of such payment in Canadian Dollars and in same day funds; provided, however, that no Canadian LC Participant shall be obligated to pay to the Global Agent its Canadian Commitment Percentage of such unreimbursed amount for
any wrongful payment made by such LC Issuer under a Canadian Letter of Credit as a result of acts or omissions constituting willful misconduct or gross negligence on the part of such LC Issuer. If the Global Agent so notifies any Canadian LC
Participant required to fund a payment under a Canadian Letter of Credit prior to 11:00 A.M. (local time at its Notice Office) on any Business Day, such Canadian LC Participant shall make available to the Global Agent at the Canadian Payment Office
for the account of the relevant LC Issuer such Canadian LC Participant’s Canadian Commitment Percentage of the amount of such payment on such Business Day in same day funds. If and to the extent such Canadian LC Participant shall not have so
made its Canadian Commitment Percentage of the amount of such payment available to the Global Agent for the account of the relevant LC Issuer, such Participant agrees to pay to the Global Agent for the account of such LC Issuer, forthwith on demand
such amount, together with interest thereon, for each day from such date until the date such amount is paid to the Global Agent for the account of such LC Issuer at the Federal Funds Effective Rate. The failure of any Canadian LC Participant to make
available to the Global Agent for the account of the relevant LC Issuer its Canadian Commitment Percentage of any payment under any Canadian Letter of Credit shall not relieve any other Canadian LC Participant of its obligation hereunder to make
available to the Global Agent for the account of such LC Issuer its Canadian Commitment Percentage of any payment under any Canadian Letter of Credit on the date required, as specified above, but no Canadian LC Participant shall be responsible for
the failure of any other Canadian LC Participant to make available to the Global Agent for the account of such LC Issuer such other Canadian LC Participant’s Canadian Commitment Percentage of any such payment. 
 (iv) Whenever a LC Issuer receives a payment of a reimbursement obligation from an LC Obligor as to which the Global Agent has received
for the account of such LC Issuer any payments from the Canadian LC Participants pursuant to subpart (iii) above, such LC Issuer shall pay to the Global Agent at the Canadian Payment Office and the Global Agent shall promptly pay to each
Canadian LC Participant that has paid its applicable Canadian Commitment Percentage thereof, in same day funds, an amount equal to such Canadian LC Participant’s applicable Canadian Commitment Percentage of the principal amount thereof and
interest thereon accruing after the purchase of the respective Canadian LC Participations, as and to the extent so received. 
 (v) The obligations of the Canadian LC Participants to make payments to the Global Agent for the account of each LC Issuer with respect to Canadian Letters of Credit shall be irrevocable and not subject to counterclaim, set-off or other
defense or any other qualification or exception whatsoever and shall be made in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement under all circumstances, including, without limitation, any of the following circumstances: 
 (A) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents; 
  

 47 

 (B) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right that any LC Obligor may have at any time
against a beneficiary named in a Canadian Letter of Credit, any transferee of any Canadian Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), the Global Agent, any LC Issuer, any Lender, or other Person, whether in
connection with this Agreement, any Canadian Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transaction between the applicable LC Obligor and the beneficiary named in any such Canadian
Letter of Credit), other than any claim that the applicable LC Obligor may have against any applicable LC Issuer for gross negligence or willful misconduct of such LC Issuer in making payment under any applicable Canadian Letter of Credit;

 (C) any draft, certificate or other document presented under the Canadian Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or
insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; 
 (D) the surrender or impairment of any
security for the performance or observance of any of the terms of any of the Loan Documents; or 
 (E) the occurrence of any Default or Event
of Default. 
 (vi) To the extent any LC Issuer is not indemnified by the Company or any LC Obligor, the Canadian LC
Participants will reimburse and indemnify such LC Issuer, in proportion to their respective Canadian Commitment Percentages, for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, costs,
expenses or disbursements of whatsoever kind or nature that may be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by such Issuer in performing its respective duties in any way related to or arising out of LC Issuances by it; provided, however, that
no Canadian LC Participants shall be liable for (A) any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such LC Issuer’s gross negligence or
willful misconduct, or (B) any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the failure of any other Canadian LC Participant to fund any
Canadian LC Participation pursuant to this Section. 
 Section 2.08 Notice of Borrowing. 
 (a) Time of Notice. Subject to Section 2.02(b), each Borrowing of a Loan shall be made upon notice in the form provided for below which shall
be provided by the applicable Borrower to the Global Agent at its Notice Office not later than (i) in the case of each Borrowing of a Fixed Rate Loan, 11:00 A.M. (local time at its Notice Office), or 1:00 P.M. (local time at its Notice Office)
if the Global Agent has provided a Notice of Adjustment pursuant to Section 2.10(b) on such day, at least three Business Days prior to the date of such Borrowing, (ii) in the case of each Borrowing of a Base Rate Loan, prior to 11:00 A.M.
(local time at its Notice Office), or 1:00 P.M. (local time at its Notice Office) if the Global Agent has provided a Notice of Adjustment pursuant to Section 2.10(b) on such day, on the proposed date of such Borrowing, and (iii) in the case of
any Borrowing under the Swing Line Facility, prior to 1:00 P.M. (local time at its Notice Office) on the proposed date of such Borrowing. 
 (b) Notice of Borrowing. Each request for a Borrowing shall be made by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower requesting such Borrowing by delivering written notice of such request substantially in the form of Exhibit B-1 (each
such notice, a “Notice of Borrowing”) or by telephone (to be confirmed immediately in writing by delivery by an Authorized Officer of such Borrower of a Notice 

  

 48 

 
of Borrowing), and in any event each such request shall be irrevocable and shall specify (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Loans to be made
pursuant to such Borrowing, (ii) the date of the Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), (iii) the Type of Loans such Borrowing will consist of, (iv) whether such Loan is a Term Loan or a Revolving Loan, and (v) if applicable,
the initial Interest Period, the Swing Loan Maturity Date (which shall be less than 30 days) and Designated Foreign Currency applicable thereto. Without in any way limiting the obligation of any Borrower to confirm in writing any telephonic notice
permitted to be given hereunder, the Global Agent may act prior to receipt of written confirmation without liability upon the basis of such telephonic notice believed by the Global Agent in good faith to be from an Authorized Officer of the
applicable Borrower entitled to give telephonic notices under this Agreement on behalf of such Borrower. In each such case, the Global Agent’s record of the terms of such telephonic notice shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

(c) Minimum Borrowing Amount. The aggregate principal amount of each Borrowing (other than a Term Borrowing) by any Borrower shall not be less
than the Minimum Borrowing Amount. The aggregate principal amount of each Term Borrowing shall not at any time be less than the lesser of (i) $50,000,000, and (ii) the Unutilized Total Term Commitment at such time. 
 (d) Maximum Borrowings. More than one Borrowing may be incurred by a Borrower on any day; provided, however, that (i) if there are two
or more Borrowings on a single day by the same Borrower that consist of Fixed Rate Loans, each such Borrowing shall have a different initial Interest Period, (ii) at no time shall there be more than 12 Borrowings of Fixed Rate Loans outstanding
hereunder for all of the Borrowers, (iii) at no time shall there be more than three Borrowings of Canadian Revolving Loans outstanding hereunder, and (iv) at no time shall there be more than four Term Borrowings outstanding hereunder.

 Section 2.09 Funding Obligations; Disbursement of Funds. 
 (a) Several Nature of Funding Obligations. The Commitments of each Lender hereunder and the obligation of each Lender to make Loans, acquire and
fund Swing Loan Participations, Revolving Facility LC Participations and Canadian LC Participations, as the case may be, are several and not joint obligations. No Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in its obligation to
make Loans or fund any participation hereunder and each Lender shall be obligated to make the Loans provided to be made by it and fund its participations required to be funded by it hereunder, regardless of the failure of any other Lender to fulfill
any of its Commitments hereunder. Nothing herein and no subsequent termination of the Commitments pursuant to Section 2.15 shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its commitments hereunder and in existence from time to
time or to prejudice any rights that the Borrowers may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder. 
 (b)
Funding Obligations. Except with respect to the making of Swing Loans by the Swing Line Lender and Foreign Currency Loans by an Accepting Lender or Augmenting Lender, all Loans hereunder shall be funded as follows: (i) all Revolving
Loans made, and Revolving Facility LC Participations acquired by each Revolving Lender, shall be made or acquired, as the case may be, on a pro rata basis based upon each Revolving Lender’s Funding Percentage of the amount of such
Revolving Borrowing or Revolving Facility Letter of Credit in effect on the date the applicable Revolving Borrowing is to be made or the Revolving Facility Letter of Credit is to be issued, (ii) all Canadian Revolving Loans made, and Canadian
LC Participations acquired by each Canadian Lender, shall be made or acquired, as the case may be, on a pro rata basis based upon each Canadian Lender’s Canadian Commitment Percentage of the amount of such Canadian Borrowing or Canadian
LC Participation in effect on the date the applicable Canadian Borrowing is to be made, and (iii) all Term Loans shall be made by the Term Lenders pro rata on the basis of their respective Term Commitments. Each Foreign 

  

 49 

 
Currency Loan shall be funded by one or more Accepting Lenders and/or Augmenting Lenders in such proportions agreed to among such Accepting Lenders,
Augmenting Lenders, the Company and the Global Agent immediately prior to the time of the making of such Foreign Currency Loan. 
 (c)
Notice to Lenders. The Global Agent shall promptly give each Lender written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of each proposed Borrowing applicable to such Lender, or Conversion or Continuation thereof, and LC
Issuance, and of such Lender’s proportionate share thereof or participation therein and of the other matters covered by the Notice of Borrowing, Notice of Continuation or Conversion, Revolving Facility LC Request or Canadian LC Request, as the
case may be, relating thereto. 
 (d) Funding of Loans. 
 (i) Revolving Loans. No later than 4:00 P.M. (local time at the Payment Office) on the date specified in each Notice of
Borrowing, each Revolving Lender will make available its Funding Amount, if any, of each Revolving Borrowing (other than a Revolving Borrowing of Foreign Currency Loans) requested to be made on such date to the Global Agent at the Payment Office in
Dollars and in immediately available funds and the Global Agent promptly will make available to the appropriate Borrower by depositing to its account at the Payment Office (or such other account as such Borrower shall specify) the aggregate of the
amounts so made available in the type of funds received. With respect to any Foreign Currency Loan, each Accepting Lender and/or Augmenting Lender that has agreed to make such Foreign Currency Loan in accordance with Section 2.02(b) shall make
available its proportionate amount of such Loan, as determined in accordance with Section 2.09(b), on the date agreed to among such Accepting Lenders, Augmenting Lenders, the Company and the Global Agent prior to the time of the making of such
Foreign Currency Loan, to the Global Agent at the Payment Office in the applicable Designated Foreign Currency (or, if the Global Agent agrees, in Dollars) and in immediately available funds and the Global Agent promptly will make available to the
appropriate Borrower by depositing to its account at the Payment Office (or such other account as such Borrower shall specify) the aggregate of the amounts so made available in the type of funds received. 
 (ii) Canadian Revolving Loans. No later than 4:00 P.M. (local time at the Canadian Payment Office) on the date specified in
each Notice of Borrowing, each Canadian Lender will make available its proportionate share, if any, of each Canadian Borrowing (which in the case of BA Equivalent Loans shall be the amount of BA Discount Proceeds due by such Canadian Lender with
respect to such BA Equivalent Loans) requested to be made on such date to the Global Agent at the Canadian Payment Office in Canadian Dollars and in immediately available funds and the Canadian Administrative Branch of the Global Agent promptly will
make available to the appropriate Canadian Borrower by depositing to its account at the Canadian Payment Office (or such other account in Canada as such Canadian Borrower shall specify) the aggregate of the amounts so made available in the type of
funds received; provided, however, that the Acceptance Fee payable by the Canadian Borrowers to each Canadian Lender pursuant to Section 2.14(b) in respect of each BA Equivalent Loan made by such Canadian Lender to the Canadian
Borrowers shall be set off against the BA Discount Proceeds payable by such Canadian Lender pursuant to this subpart. 
 (iii)
Term Loans. No later than 4:00 P.M. (local time at the Payment Office) on the date specified in each Notice of Borrowing, each Term Lender will make available its amount, of each Term Borrowing requested to be made on such date to the
Global Agent at the Payment Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds and the Global Agent promptly will make available to the Company by depositing to its account at the Payment Office (or such other 

  

 50 

 
account as the Company shall specify) the aggregate of the amounts so made available in the type of funds received. 
 (iv) Swing Loans. No later than 2:00 P.M. (local time at the Payment Office) on the date specified in each Notice of
Borrowing, the Swing Line Lender will make available to the Company by depositing to its account at the Payment Office (or such other account as the Company shall specify) the aggregate of Swing Loans requested in such Notice of Borrowing.

 (e) Advance Funding. Unless the Global Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the date of Borrowing that such Lender
does not intend to make available to the Global Agent its portion of the Borrowing or Borrowings to be made on such date, the Global Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Global Agent or the Canadian Administrative
Branch of the Global Agent, as the case may be, on such date of Borrowing, and the Global Agent or the Canadian Administrative Branch of the Global Agent, in reliance upon such assumption, may (in their sole discretion and without any obligation to
do so) make available to the applicable Borrower a corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Global Agent or the Canadian Administrative Branch of the Global Agent, as the case may be, by such Lender and
the Global Agent or the Canadian Administrative Branch of the Global Agent has made the same available to such Borrower, the Global Agent or the Canadian Administrative Branch of the Global Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding
amount from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Global Agent’s demand therefor, the Global Agent shall promptly notify such Borrower, and such Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding
amount to the Global Agent or the Canadian Administrative Branch of the Global Agent, as appropriate. The Global Agent or the Canadian Administrative Branch of the Global Agent, as applicable, shall also be entitled to recover from such Lender or
such Borrower, as the case may be, interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Global Agent or the Canadian Administrative Branch of the Global Agent to such Borrower
to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Global Agent or the Canadian Administrative Branch of the Global Agent, at a rate per annum equal to (x) if paid by such Lender, the overnight Federal Funds Effective Rate or (y) if
paid by such Borrower, the then applicable rate of interest, calculated in accordance with Section 2.12, for the respective Loans (but without any requirement to pay any amounts in respect thereof pursuant to Section 3.02). 
 Section 2.10 Adjustment of Loans and Certain Other Obligations. 
 (a) Requirement for Adjustment. If on any Adjustment Date (i) (w) the Revolving/Canadian Credit Facility Exposure of any Canadian Lender (whether directly or by its Canadian Lending Installation) is
in excess of an amount equal to such Lender’s Fixed Commitment Percentage of the Aggregate Revolving/Canadian Credit Facility Exposure and (x) such Lender has any Revolving Facility Exposure owing to it, or (ii) (y) the
Revolving/Canadian Credit Facility Exposure of any Canadian Lender (whether directly or by its Canadian Lending Installation) is less than an amount equal to such Lender’s Fixed Percentage of the Aggregate Revolving/Canadian Credit Facility
Exposure and (z) the Non-Canadian Lenders have Revolving Facility Exposure owing to them, then, in the case of each of the foregoing, the Obligations owing to all of the Revolving Lenders shall be adjusted through a repayment and
re-advancement of the Revolving Loans and a sale of Revolving Facility LC Outstandings in accordance with this Section, such that the Revolving Facility Exposure of each Lender is equal to its Fixed Commitment Percentage of the Aggregate
Revolving/Canadian Facility Exposure, or as close thereto as possible without exceeding the amount of any Lender’s Revolving Commitment or the Total Revolving Commitment. 
  

 51 

 (b) Notice of Adjustment. The Global Agent shall provide to each Lender and the Company, on each
Adjustment Date (or, if the Global Agent is aware of an adjustment that is going to occur as a result of a notice received by the Global Agent pursuant to Section 2.06(b), Section 2.08(b), Section 2.13(c) or Section 2.16(a), on the date any such
notice is received by the Global Agent) notice by 12:00 noon (local time at its Notice Office) of any adjustment to be made pursuant to this Section and shall specify therein for each Lender the details regarding the adjustments to be made (a

 (c) Manner of Adjustment. On each Adjustment Date, to the extent necessary, the Revolving
Loans and Revolving Facility LC Outstandings shall be adjusted as hereinafter set forth such that the Revolving/Canadian Facility Exposure of each applicable Lender is equal to its Fixed Commitment Percentage of the Aggregate Revolving/Canadian
Facility Exposure, or as close thereto as possible without exceeding the amount of any Lender’s Revolving Commitment or the Total Revolving Commitment. Any adjustment of the Revolving Loans and Revolving Facility LC Outstandings shall be made
by the Global Agent on the applicable Adjustment Date in the following manner: 
 (i) the Revolving Borrowings (and all the
Revolving Loans comprising such Borrowings) designated by the Global Agent in the Notice of Adjustment relating to such adjustment, as determined in accordance with Section 2.10(d) below, as being required to be repaid, shall be repaid in full by
the Revolving Facility Borrowers out of the proceeds of new Revolving Borrowings to be made as set forth in this Section; 
 (ii) the Revolving Facility Borrowers shall pay on such Adjustment Date all of the accrued and unpaid interest owing on all of the Revolving Loans made to each Revolving Facility Borrower that are being repaid in accordance with this
Section, together with any amounts that may be due pursuant to Section 2.10(h) below; 
 (iii) the new Revolving Borrowings
(and the Revolving Loans comprising such Revolving Borrowings) to be made pursuant to this Section shall, except as set forth below, be in the same aggregate principal amount (except in the case of an adjustment being made as a result of a request
for a new Revolving Borrowing in which case the amount of the Revolving Loans shall be increased appropriately to reflect the amount of such new Revolving Borrowing), of the same Type, have the same Interest Period (or as close thereto as possible),
and be in the same currency as the original Revolving Borrowings to which they relate; provided, however, that (i) the principal amount of the Revolving Loans to be made by each Lender pursuant to each such Revolving Borrowing
shall be in the amount specified in the Notice of Adjustment sent by the Global Agent, and (ii) unless the applicable Revolving Facility Borrowers have properly submitted a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion or Continuation in
accordance with this Agreement, all such Revolving Loans comprising such new Revolving Borrowings shall be US Base Rate Loans unless and until Converted in accordance with Section 2.13 by the applicable Revolving Facility Borrower to Fixed Rate
Loans or, in the case of any Foreign Currency Loan, shall be repaid by the applicable Revolving Facility Borrower in full on the Adjustment Date unless the applicable Revolving Facility Borrower has Continued such Foreign Currency Loan in accordance
with Section 2.13; 
 (iv) if specified by the Global Agent in the Notice of Adjustment, each Lender or the applicable Lenders
shall purchase from the other Lenders or other applicable Lenders the amount of the Revolving Facility LC Outstandings of such other Lenders or other applicable Lenders as specified in such Notice of Adjustment; and 
  

 52 

 (v) the Revolving Facility Borrowers shall pay on such Adjustment Date all of the accrued
and unpaid LC Fees with respect to any Revolving Facility LC Outstandings that are being sold pursuant to subpart (iv) above, together with any amounts that may be due pursuant to Section 2.10(h) below. 
 (d) Determination of Loans to be Repaid. In determining which Revolving Loans are required to be repaid pursuant to this Section, the Global Agent
shall designate such Revolving Loans in the following order (in each case to the extent Revolving Loans of such Type are outstanding and in an amount necessary to effect the adjustments required pursuant to this Section): (i) first, US Base
Rate Loans, (ii) second, Eurodollar Loans (with Interest Periods ending closest to the Adjustment Date on which such Eurodollar Loans are to be repaid having preference over Interest Periods ending later), and (iii) third, Foreign Currency
Loans (with Interest Periods ending closest to the Adjustment Date on which such Foreign Currency Loans are to be repaid having preference over Interest Periods ending later). 
 (e) Payment Obligations. To the extent necessary, each Lender shall pay to the Global Agent, for distribution to the appropriate Lenders, the
amounts required to be paid by it pursuant to each Notice of Adjustment. Each such Lender shall make such amounts available to the Global Agent at the times and in the manner set forth in Section 2.09(d), provided that any amounts payable
pursuant to Section 2.10(c)(iv) above shall be paid by the appropriate Lenders on the applicable Adjustment Date to the Global Agent or for the account of the Lenders to which such payment is due in immediately available funds at the Payment Office
not later than 2:00 P.M. (local time at the Payment Office). 
 (f) Participations. If any Lender determines that it is legally
prohibited from making any Revolving Loans when required to do so pursuant to this Section, such Lender shall purchase an undivided participating interest in the Revolving Credit Exposure of the other Lenders as appropriate in an amount equal to the
amount of the Revolving Loan or Revolving Loans such prohibited Lender was required to fund. On the date that any prohibited Lender is required to purchase a participation pursuant to the preceding sentence, each such Lender shall pay to each other
Lender, in immediately available funds, the amount due to each such other Lender. If any amount required to be paid by any Lender to any other Lender pursuant to the above provisions is not paid on the date such payment is due, such Lender shall pay
to each other Lender on demand interest on the amount not so paid at the overnight Federal Funds Effective Rate from the due date until such amount is paid in full. 
 (g) Obligations Unconditional. Each Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans and/or to purchase Revolving Facility LC Outstandings or participations pursuant to this Section shall be subject to the
conditions that (i) such Lender shall have received a Notice of Adjustment complying with the provisions hereof and (ii) in the case of an adjustment being made as a result of a request by a Revolving Facility Borrower for a new Revolving
Borrowing, that such Revolving Facility Borrower has satisfied all of the conditions to the making of such new Revolving Facility Borrowing pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, but otherwise shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be
affected by any circumstance, including, without limitation, (A) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Lender may have against any other Lender, any Credit Party, or any other Person, or any Credit Party may
have against any Lender or other Person, as the case may be, for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or Event of Default; (C) any event or circumstance involving a Material Adverse Effect upon the
Borrowers; (D) any breach of any Loan Document by any party thereto; or (E) any other circumstance, happening or event, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. 
 (h) Breakage Compensation. Each Borrower shall be required to pay any breakage compensation or other prepayment costs associated with the
adjustment of any of the Obligations pursuant to this Section, in each case in accordance with Article III. The Global Agent shall use its best 

  

 53 

 
efforts to effect any adjustment of the Obligations pursuant to this Section in a manner that minimizes any such breakage compensation or prepayment costs,
but shall not be liable to the Borrowers for failing to do so. 
 Section 2.11 Evidence of Obligations. 
 (a) Loan Accounts of Lenders. Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the Obligations
of the Borrowers to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. 
 (b) Loan Accounts of Global Agent; Lender Register. The Global Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each

available to any Lender or the Company upon its request. 
 (c) Effect of Loan Accounts, etc. The entries made in the accounts
maintained pursuant to Section 2.11(a) and (b) shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the Obligations recorded therein, provided, that the failure of any Lender or the Global Agent to maintain such accounts or
any error (other than manifest error) therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of any Credit Party to repay or prepay the Loans or the other Obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
 (d) Notes. Upon request of any Lender or the Swing Line Lender, (i) the Company will execute and deliver to such Lender a Revolving Facility
Note with blanks appropriately completed in conformity herewith to evidence the Company’s obligation to pay the principal of, and interest on, the Revolving Loans made to it by such Lender, (ii) each Foreign Revolving Facility Borrower

 (b) Interest on Canadian Revolving Loans. Each Canadian Base Rate Loan made by each Canadian Lender shall bear interest on the outstanding
principal amount thereof at a fluctuating rate per annum that shall at all times be equal to the Canadian Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time. 
 (c) Interest on Term Loans. The outstanding principal amount of each Term Loan made by each Lender shall bear interest at a fluctuating rate per
annum that shall at all times be equal to (i) during such periods as such Term Loan is a US Base Rate Loan, the Base Rate plus 25 basis points, and (ii) during such periods as such Term Loan is a Eurodollar Loan, the relevant

 (e) Default Interest. Notwithstanding the above provisions, if an Event of Default is in existence, upon written notice by the Global Agent (which
notice the Global Agent shall give at the direction of the Required Lenders), (i) all outstanding amounts of principal and, to the extent permitted by law, all overdue interest, in respect of each Loan shall bear interest, payable on demand, at
a rate per annum equal to the Default Rate, and (ii) the fees applicable to any Revolving Facility LC Outstandings and Canadian LC Outstandings shall be increased by an additional 2% per annum in excess of the fees otherwise applicable

of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable, and all computations of the Applicable BA Discount Rate with respect to BA Equivalent Loans shall be made on the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 365 days. For purposes of this
Agreement, whenever interest to be paid on a Canadian Revolving Loan is to be calculated on the basis of a period of time that is less than a calendar year, the yearly rate of interest to which the rate determined pursuant to such calculation is
equivalent is the rate so determined multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the same is to be ascertained and divided by such lesser period of time. 
 (h) Information as to Interest Rates. The Global Agent upon determining the interest rate for any Borrowing shall promptly notify the applicable

into a US Base Rate Loan, Eurodollar Loan or a Foreign Currency Loan that is denominated in a different Designated Foreign Currency, and (B) any Conversion of Eurodollar Loans into US Base Rate Loans shall be made on, and only on, the last day
of an Interest Period for such Eurodollar Loans.

Continuation or Conversion”) or by telephone (to be confirmed immediately in writing by delivery by an Authorized Officer of such Borrower of a Notice of Continuation or Conversion), and in any event each such request shall be 

  

 56 

 
irrevocable and shall specify (A) the Borrowings to be Continued or Converted, (B) the date of the Continuation or Conversion (which shall be a
Business Day), and (C) the Interest Period or, in the case of a Continuation, the new Interest Period. Without in any way limiting the obligation of each Borrower to confirm in writing any telephonic notice permitted to be given hereunder, the
Global Agent may act prior to receipt of written confirmation without liability upon the basis of such telephonic notice believed by the Global Agent in good faith to be from an Authorized Officer of such Borrower entitled to give telephonic notices
under this Agreement on behalf of such Borrower. In each such case, the Global Agent’s record of the terms of such telephonic notice shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 (iv) Revolving Facility LC Outstandings Exceed Commitment. If on any date
(A) the Revolving Facility LC Outstandings exceed the Revolving Facility LC Commitment Amount, or (B) the Canadian LC Outstandings exceed the Canadian LC Commitment Amount, in each case as then in effect, then the applicable LC
Obligor or the Company shall pay to the Global Agent or the Canadian Administrative Branch of the Global Agent, as appropriate, an amount in cash equal to such excess and the Global Agent shall hold such payment as security for the reimbursement
obligations of the applicable LC Obligors hereunder in respect of Revolving Facility Letters of Credit or Canadian Letters of Credit, as the case may be, pursuant to a cash collateral agreement to be entered into in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Global Agent, each LC Issuer and the Company (which shall permit certain investments in Cash Equivalents satisfactory to the Global Agent, each LC Issuer and the Company until the proceeds are applied to the secured obligations).

 (v) Certain Proceeds of Indebtedness. Not later than the Business Day following the date of the receipt by any
Credit Party of the cash proceeds (net of underwriting discounts and commissions, placement agent fees and other reasonable and customary fees and costs associated therewith) in excess of $5,000,000 from any sale or issuance of any Indebtedness
(other than any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to Section 7.04(a) through (m)) after the Closing Date, the Company will make a prepayment of the Loans in an amount equal to 100% of such net proceeds in excess of such amount in accordance with
Section 2.16(d) below. 
 (vi) Certain Proceeds of Asset Sales. If during any fiscal year of the Company, the
Company or any other Domestic Credit Party receives cumulative Net Cash Proceeds during such fiscal year from one or more Asset Sales described in Section 7.02(f) aggregating $10,000,000 or more for such fiscal year, not later than the Business
Day following the date of receipt of Net Cash Proceeds in excess of such amount, the Company will make a prepayment of the Loans in an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds then received in excess of such amount in accordance with
Section 2.16(d) below; provided, that (A) if no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and (B) the Company notifies the Global Agent of the amount and nature thereof and of its intention to reinvest
all or a portion of such Net Cash Proceeds in assets used or useful in the business of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries during such 360 day period, then no such prepayment shall be required to the extent of the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds
as to which the Company so indicates such reinvestment will take place. If at the end of any such 360 day period any portion of such Net Cash Proceeds in excess of $500,000 has not been so reinvested, the Company will immediately make a prepayment
of the Loans, as provided above. 
 (vii) Certain Proceeds of an Event of Loss. If during any fiscal year of the
Company, the Company or any other Domestic Credit Party receives cumulative Net Cash Proceeds during such fiscal year from one or more Events of Loss aggregating $10,000,000 or more for such fiscal year, not later than the Business Day following the
date of receipt of Net Cash Proceeds in excess of such amount, the Company will make a prepayment of the Loans in an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds then received in excess of such amount from any Event of Loss in accordance with
Section 2.16(d) below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event any property suffers an Event of Loss and (A) the Net Cash Proceeds received in any fiscal year as a result of such Event of Loss are less than $5,000,000, (B) no
Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and (C) the Company notifies the Global Agent and the Lenders in writing that it intends to rebuild or restore the affected property, that such rebuilding or restoration can be
accomplished within 360 days out of such Net Cash Proceeds and other funds available to the Company, then no such prepayment of the Loans shall be required. Any amounts in excess of 

  

 61 

 
$500,000 not so applied to the costs of rebuilding or restoration or as provided in Section 8.03 shall be applied to the prepayment of the Loans as
provided above. 
 (d) Applications of Certain Prepayment Proceeds. Subject to Section 2.16(e) below, each prepayment required to
be made pursuant to Sections 2.16(c)(v), (vi), or (vii) above shall be applied as a mandatory prepayment of principal of first, the outstanding Term Loans, with such amounts being applied to the Scheduled Repayments thereof in the
inverse order of their maturity, second, after no Term Loans are outstanding, the outstanding Swing Loans, and third, the outstanding Revolving Loans, with such amounts being applied pro rata. 
 (e) Right of Term Lenders to Forego Certain Mandatory Prepayments. Each Term Lender shall have the right to forego the application to its Term
Loans of any mandatory prepayment of Loans required to be made pursuant to Section 2.16(d), in accordance with the following provisions: 
 (i) The Global Agent shall, on or prior to 3:00 p.m. (local time at the Notice Office) on the date it receives immediately available funds from the Company in respect of a mandatory prepayment of Loans pursuant to
Section 2.16(d), give each Term Lender written or telephonic notice of (A) the amount of such mandatory prepayment, (B) the portion thereof proposed to be applied to the Term Loans of such Term Lender in accordance with
Section 2.16(d), as applicable, and (C) such Term Lender’s right to forego the application to its Term Loans of the portion of such mandatory prepayment, which notice shall request such Term Lender to confirm to the Global Agent
whether or not it wishes to forego such application to its Term Loans. 
 (ii) If any Term Lender so indicates its desire to
forego such application to the prepayment of its Term Loans by giving the Global Agent written or telephonic notice to such effect by 5:00 p.m. (local time at the Notice Office) on the date such Term Lender receives such written or telephonic notice
from the Global Agent, the amount of the applicable prepayment which otherwise would have been applied to its Term Loans shall, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.16(e), be applied instead to the prepayment of
the Revolving Loans. 
 (iii) The Global Agent may act without liability upon the basis of any such telephonic notice or
written notice believed by the Global Agent in good faith to be from an authorized representative of a Term Lender. In the case of each such telephonic notice, the Global Agent’s record of the terms of such telephonic notice shall be conclusive
absent manifest error. 
 (iv) Any Term Lender which does not respond to the Global Agent within the time period specified
above to a notice from the Global Agent requesting it to confirm whether or not it wishes to exercise its right to forego the application of its portion of such prepayment to its Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.16(e) shall be deemed to
have waived such right to forego such application. 
 (v) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, the Global Agent may defer, until the next Business Day, the distribution to the Lenders of any portion of any mandatory prepayment of Loans received by the Global Agent pursuant to Section 2.16(d), as to which the Global Agent is
determining whether or not the Term Lenders wish to exercise their rights under this Section 2.16(e). 
 (f) Particular Loans to be
Prepaid. With respect to each repayment or prepayment of Loans required by this Section, the Borrower making such repayment or prepayment shall designate the Types of Loans that are to be repaid or prepaid and the specific Borrowing(s) pursuant
to which such repayment 

  

 62 

 
or prepayment is to be made; provided, however, that (i) such Borrower shall first so designate all Loans that are Base Rate Loans and Fixed Rate
Loans with Interest Periods ending on the date of repayment or prepayment prior to designating any other Fixed Rate Loans for repayment or prepayment, (ii) if the outstanding principal amount of Fixed Rate Loans made pursuant to a Borrowing is
reduced below the applicable Minimum Borrowing Amount as a result of any such repayment or prepayment, then all the Loans outstanding pursuant to such Borrowing shall, in the case of Eurodollar Loans or BA Equivalent Loans, be Converted into Base
Rate Loans and, in the case of Foreign Currency Loans, be repaid in full, and (iii) each repayment and prepayment of any Loans made pursuant to a Borrowing shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.17(b). In the absence of a designation by
a Borrower as described in the preceding sentence, the Global Agent shall, subject to the above, make such designation in its sole discretion with a view, but no obligation, to minimize breakage costs owing under Article III. 
 (g) Breakage and Other Compensation. Any prepayment made pursuant to this Section shall be accompanied by any amounts payable in respect thereof
under Article III. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the amount of any prepayment of Loans required under Section 2.16 shall be in excess of the amount of the Base Rate Loans at the time outstanding (an “Excess Amount”), only
the portion of the amount of such prepayment as is equal to the amount of such outstanding Base Rate Loans shall be immediately prepaid and, at the election of the Company, the balance of such required prepayment shall be either (A) deposited
in a collateral account held at the Global Agent and applied to the prepayment of Fixed Rate Loans on the last day of the then next-expiring Interest Period for Fixed Rate Loans, provided that (i) interest in respect of such Excess
Amount shall continue to accrue thereon at the rate provided hereunder for the Loans which such Excess Amount is intended to repay until such Excess Amount shall have been used in full to repay such Loans and (ii) at any time while an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, the Global Agent may, and upon written direction from the Required Lenders shall, apply any or all proceeds then on deposit in such collateral account to the payment of such Loans in an amount equal to such
Excess Amount or (B) prepaid immediately, together with any amounts owing to the Lenders under Article III. 
 Section 2.17 Method
and Place of Payment. 
 (a) Generally. All payments made by any Borrower hereunder, under any Note or any other Loan Document,
shall be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense. 
 (b) Application of Payments. Except as specifically set forth
elsewhere in this Agreement and subject to Section 8.03, (i) all payments and prepayments of Loans (other than Swing Loans) and Unpaid Drawings with respect to Letters of Credit shall be applied by the Global Agent for the ratable benefit of
the Lenders entitled thereto (based on each such Lender’s Payment Sharing Percentage at the time of such payment) to pay or prepay such Loans or Unpaid Drawings, provided that any prepayments of Term Loans shall be applied to the Scheduled
Repayments thereof in the inverse order of their maturity, (ii) all payments or prepayments of Swing Loans and payments of interest thereon shall be applied to pay or prepay such Swing Loans and unpaid interest thereon, (iii) all payments
of Fees shall be applied as set forth in Section 2.14, and (iv) with respect to any other amounts, such amounts shall be distributed by the Global Agent for the ratable account of the Lenders entitled thereto in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement. 
 (c) Payment of Obligations. Except as set forth in subpart (d) below, all payments under this Agreement with
respect to any of the Obligations shall be made to the Global Agent on the date when due and shall be made at the Payment Office in immediately available funds and, except as set forth in the next sentence, shall be made in Dollars. With respect to
any Foreign Currency Loan, all payments (including prepayments) to any Lender of the principal of or interest on such Foreign Currency Loan shall be made in the same Designated Foreign Currency as the original Loan and with respect to any Revolving

  

 63 

 
Facility Letter of Credit issued in a Designated Foreign Currency, all Unpaid Drawings with respect to each such Revolving Facility Letter of Credit shall be
made in the same Designated Foreign Currency in which each such Revolving Facility Letter of Credit was issued, unless the applicable LC Issuer agrees otherwise. 
 (d) Canadian Obligations. All payments under this Agreement with respect to the Canadian Obligations shall be made to the Canadian Administrative Branch of the Global Agent not later than 11:00 A.M. (local time
at the Canadian Payment Office) on the date when due and shall be made at the Canadian Payment Office in immediately available funds and in Canadian Dollars. 
 (e) Timing of Payments. Any payments under this Agreement that are made later than 11:00 A.M. (local time at the Payment Office or the Canadian Payment Office, as the case may be) shall be deemed to have
been made on the next succeeding Business Day. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to
payments of principal, interest shall be payable during such extension at the applicable rate in effect immediately prior to such extension. 
 (f) Distribution to Lenders. Upon the Global Agent’s receipt of payments hereunder, the Global Agent shall immediately distribute to each Lender or the applicable LC Issuer, as the case may be, its ratable share (as determined
in accordance with subpart (b) above), if any, of the amount of principal, interest, and Fees received by it for the account of such Lender. Payments received by the Global Agent in Dollars shall be delivered to the Lenders or the applicable LC
Issuer, as the case may be, in Dollars in immediately available funds. Payments received by the Global Agent in any Designated Foreign Currency shall be delivered to the Lenders or the applicable LC Issuer, as the case may be, in such Designated
Foreign Currency in same day funds; provided, however, that if at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Global Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, Unpaid Drawings, interest and Fees then due hereunder then,
except as specifically set forth elsewhere in this Agreement and subject to Section 8.03, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and Fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in
accordance with the amounts of interest and Fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal and Unpaid Drawings then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of
principal and Unpaid Drawings then due to such parties. 
 Section 2.18 Authority of Company; Liability of Foreign Subsidiary
Borrowers. 
 (a) Authority of the Company. Each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the
Company as its agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and hereby irrevocably authorizes the Company to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers
(including, but not limited to, requesting a Loan or Letter of Credit for such Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers hereunder) and perform such duties as such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower could exercise on its own (which the Company may, but shall not be
obligated to, do), together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, with all such actions by the Company that purport to be on behalf of any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower being sufficient, without any further action or
authorization by such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, to bind such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower. The Global Agent, the Lenders and each LC Issuer shall be entitled to rely upon all statements, certificates, notices, consents, affidavits, letters,
cablegrams, telegrams, facsimile transmissions, electronic transmissions, e-mails, telex or teletype messages, orders or other documents or conversations furnished or made by the Company pursuant to any of the provisions of this Agreement or any of
the other Loan Documents, or otherwise in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents, as being made or furnished on behalf of, and with the effect of irrevocably binding, each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, without any duty to
ascertain or to inquire as to the authority of the 

  

 64 

 
Company in so doing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Global Agent, the Lenders and each LC Issuer may also rely on or act in accordance with directions or
instructions coming directly from any such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower. 
 (b) Foreign Revolving Facility Borrowers. The parties
intend that this Agreement shall in all circumstances be interpreted to provide that each Foreign Revolving Facility Borrower is liable only for Loans made to such Foreign Revolving Facility Borrower, interest on such Loans, such Foreign Revolving
Facility Borrower’s reimbursement obligations with respect to any Revolving Facility Letter of Credit issued for its account and its ratable share of any of the other Obligations, including, without limitation, general fees, reimbursements and
charges hereunder and under any other Loan Document that are attributable to it. The liability of any Foreign Revolving Facility Borrower for the payment of any of the Obligations or the performance of its covenants, representations and warranties
set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be several from but not joint with the Obligations of any other Borrower. Nothing in this Section is intended to limit, nor shall it be deemed to limit, any of the liability of the
Company for any of the Obligations, whether in its primary capacity as a Borrower, pursuant to its guaranty obligations set forth in Article X, at law or otherwise. 
 (c) Canadian Borrowers. To the extent permitted by law, each Canadian Borrower is and shall at all times be fully liable, jointly and severally, for all of the Canadian Revolving Loans made hereunder and for
all of the other Canadian Obligations. Each Canadian Borrower agrees that it is receiving or will receive a direct pecuniary benefit for each Canadian Revolving Loan made hereunder and each Canadian Letter of Credit issued hereunder. Each request by
any of the Canadian Borrowers for a Borrowing, Continuation or Conversion of any Canadian Revolving Loan or for any Canadian LC Request shall be deemed to be a joint and several request by all of the Canadian Borrowers. Each Canadian Borrower hereby
authorizes any other Canadian Borrower to request a Borrowing, Continuation or Conversion of a Canadian Revolving Loan or a Canadian LC Request hereunder. 
 Section 2.19 Eligibility and Addition/Release of Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers. 
 (a) No Foreign
Subsidiary Borrowers as of the Closing Date. The parties hereto acknowledge that there are no Foreign Revolving Facility Borrowers or Canadian Borrowers as of the Closing Date and, as such, no Foreign Subsidiary of the Company shall be permitted
to request or receive the proceeds of any Borrowing nor shall any Letter of Credit be issued for its account. 
 (b) Eligibility of
Foreign Subsidiaries. At the request of the Company, a Foreign Subsidiary of the Company may become a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower hereunder, provided that (i) only a Foreign Subsidiary that is organized under the laws of Canada or
any Province thereof may become a Canadian Borrower and no Foreign Subsidiary organized under the laws of Canada or any Province thereof may become a Foreign Revolving Facility Borrower; (ii) prior to becoming a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, the
Company has provided to the Global Agent a written request signed by the Company and such Foreign Subsidiary, that such Foreign Subsidiary be designated as a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; (iii) such
Foreign Subsidiary shall be a wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Company; (iv) the Company and such Foreign Subsidiary shall have satisfied the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02; (v) the addition of such Foreign Subsidiary as a
Foreign Subsidiary Borrower hereunder shall not result in withholding tax liability or other adverse tax consequences or adverse legal impact to the Global Agent, any LC Issuer or any Lender hereunder; and (vi) at the time of the request by the
Company that such Foreign Subsidiary be added as Foreign Subsidiary Borrower and after giving effect to the addition of such Foreign Subsidiary as a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, no Default or Event of Default shall exist or begin to exist.

  

 65 

 (c) Notification to Lenders. Upon satisfaction by the Company and any Foreign Subsidiary of the
requirements set forth in subpart (b) above, and the Global Agent’s satisfaction that the addition of such Foreign Subsidiary as a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower hereunder is appropriately documented pursuant to this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents, the Global Agent shall promptly notify the Company, such Foreign Subsidiary and the Lenders thereof, and shall notify the Lenders whether such Foreign Subsidiary is a Canadian Borrower or Foreign Revolving Facility Borrower,
whereupon such Foreign Subsidiary shall be designated a “Foreign Subsidiary Borrower” pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and such Foreign Subsidiary shall become bound by all representations, warranties, covenants,
provisions and conditions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document applicable to the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers as if such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower had been the original party making such representations, warranties and covenants.

 (d) Release of Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers. Upon written request of the Company and any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, such Foreign
Subsidiary Borrower may be released as a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower hereunder, so long as (i) such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower does not have any Credit Facility Exposure owing to any Lender at such time and has paid all accrued and unpaid
interest and fees and other amounts due by or from such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower hereunder, if any, owing by it, and (ii) no Default or Event of Default shall exist or immediately thereafter shall begin to exist. No such release shall be
effective until confirmed by the Global Agent to the Company, such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower and the Lenders in writing (which the Collateral Agent agrees to promptly do upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in this subpart). The Lenders
hereby authorize the Global Agent to release such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower in accordance with the terms and conditions of this subpart and agree that the Global Agent may execute and deliver such documents or agreements as the Global Agent shall
deem necessary or appropriate in connection therewith. No release of a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall affect the Company’s obligations under Article X of this Agreement or any other Credit Party’s obligations under the Subsidiary
Guaranty. 
 Section 2.20 Collateral and Collateral Release Date. At all times on and after the Closing Date, unless and until
released in accordance with this Section, all of the Obligations of the Credit Parties shall be secured by the Collateral on the terms and conditions set forth in the Security Documents. The Collateral, and the respective rights of the Lenders
thereto, shall be subject to the intercreditor provisions set forth in the Security Agreement, which provides, among other things, for the Obligations to be secured equally and ratably with the Indebtedness issued pursuant to the Senior Indenture,
unless and/or until the Company notifies the Global Agent in writing that the Senior Indenture Collateral Condition no longer exists. Upon the written request of the Company to the Global Agent and the Collateral Agent (with a copy thereof to the
trustee under the Senior Indenture) at any time after the Company has achieved an Investment Grade Rating from at least two of the Ratings Agencies on or after October 4, 2006, the Collateral Agent shall release and terminate all of the Liens
granted to it pursuant to the Security Documents so long as (i) no Default or Event of Default exists or immediately thereafter would exist, and (ii) unless and/or until the Company notifies the Global Agent in writing that the Senior
Indenture Collateral Condition no longer exists, no default or event of default exists or would begin to exist under the Senior Indenture. In connection with the foregoing, the Collateral Agent shall, at the Company’s expense, prepare and file
all necessary termination statements and releases terminating and releasing the Liens granted to the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Security Documents and shall return to the Company all share certificates or other Collateral held by the
Collateral Agent and transfer documents relating thereto. The Lenders hereby authorize the Global Agent and the Collateral Agent to execute and deliver such documents or agreements as the Global Agent or the Collateral Agent deem necessary or
appropriate in connection with the foregoing. The release of the Collateral pursuant to this Section shall not be effective until the date (the “Collateral Release Date”) that (i) the Collateral Agent has filed all termination
statements and releases, deemed necessary or appropriate by the Company, which the Collateral Agent shall promptly do upon satisfaction by the Company of the conditions set forth in this 

  

 66 

 
Section, and (ii) the Global Agent has provided notice of the same to the Lenders, which notice the Global Agent shall promptly provide upon the
satisfaction by the Company of the conditions set forth in this Section. 
 ARTICLE III. 
 TAXES, INCREASED COSTS AND ILLEGALITY 
 Section 3.01 Increased Costs, Illegality, etc. 
 (a) In the event that (x) in the case of clause (i) below, the
Global Agent or (y) in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) below, any Lender, shall have determined on a reasonable basis (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto):

 (i) on any date for determining the interest rate applicable to any Fixed Rate Loan for any Interest Period that, by reason
of any changes arising after the Closing Date, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable interest rate on the basis provided for in this Agreement for such Fixed Rate Loan; or 
 (ii) at any time, that such Lender shall incur increased costs or reductions in the amounts received or receivable by it hereunder in an
amount that such Lender deems material with respect to any Fixed Rate Loans (other than any increased cost or reduction in the amount received or receivable resulting from the imposition of or a change in the rate of taxes or similar charges)
because of (x) any change since the Closing Date in any applicable law, governmental rule, regulation, guideline, order or request (whether or not having the force of law), or in the interpretation or administration thereof and including the
introduction of any new law or governmental rule, regulation, guideline, order or request (such as, for example, but not limited to, a change in official reserve requirements, but, in all events, excluding reserves already includable in the interest
rate applicable to such Fixed Rate Loan pursuant to this Agreement) or (y) other circumstances adversely affecting the London interbank market or the Canadian commercial banking market or the position of such Lender in any such market; or

 (iii) at any time, that the making or continuance of any Fixed Rate Loan has become unlawful by compliance by such Lender
in good faith with any change since the Closing Date in any law, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order, or the interpretation or application thereof, or would conflict with any thereof not having the force of law but with which such
Lender customarily complies, or has become impracticable as a result of a contingency occurring after the Closing Date that materially adversely affects the London interbank market or the Canadian commercial banking market; 
 then, and in each such event, such Lender (or the Global Agent in the case of clause (i) above) shall (x) on or promptly following such date or time and
(y) within 10 Business Days of the date on which such event no longer exists give notice (by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Company and to the Global Agent of such determination (which notice the Global Agent shall promptly transmit to
each of the other Lenders). Thereafter (x) in the case of clause (i) above, the affected Type of Fixed Rate Loans shall no longer be available until such time as the Global Agent notifies the Borrowers and the Lenders that the
circumstances giving rise to such notice by the Global Agent no longer exist, and any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Continuation or Conversion given by any Borrower with respect to such Type of Fixed Rate Loans that have not yet been incurred,
Converted or Continued shall be deemed rescinded by the applicable Borrower or, in the case of a Notice of Borrowing other than a Borrowing of Foreign Currency Loans, shall, at the option of such Borrower, be deemed converted into a Notice of
Borrowing 

  

 67 

 
for Base Rate Loans to be made on the date of Borrowing contained in such Notice of Borrowing, (y) in the case of clause (ii) above, the applicable
Borrower shall pay to such Lender, upon written demand therefor, such additional amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender shall determine) as shall be required to
compensate such Lender, for such increased costs or reductions in amounts receivable hereunder (a written notice as to the additional amounts owed to such Lender, showing the basis for the calculation thereof, which basis must be reasonable,
submitted to such Borrower by such Lender shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) and (z) in the case of clause (iii) above, such Borrower shall take one of the actions specified in
Section 3.01(b) as promptly as possible and, in any event, within the time period required by law. 
 (b) At any time that any Fixed Rate
Loan is affected by the circumstances described in Section 3.01(a)(ii) or (iii), the applicable Borrower may (and in the case of a Fixed Rate Loan affected pursuant to Section 3.01(a)(iii) such Borrower shall) either (i) if the affected Fixed
Rate Loan is then being made pursuant to a Borrowing, by giving the Global Agent telephonic notice (confirmed promptly in writing) thereof on the same date that such Borrower was notified by a Lender pursuant to Section 3.01(a)(ii) or (iii), cancel
said Borrowing, or, in the case of any Borrowing other than a Borrowing of Foreign Currency Loans, convert the related Notice of Borrowing into one requesting a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans or require the affected Lender to make its requested Loan
as a Base Rate Loan, or (ii) if the affected Fixed Rate Loan is then outstanding, upon at least one Business Day’s notice to the Global Agent, require the affected Lender to Convert each such Fixed Rate Loan into a Base Rate Loan or, in
the case of a Foreign Currency Loan, prepay in full such Foreign Currency Loan; provided, however, that if more than one Lender is affected at any time, then all affected Lenders must be treated the same pursuant to this Section 3.01(b).

 (c) If any Lender shall have determined that after the Closing Date, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding
capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged by law with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance
by such Lender or its parent corporation with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank, or comparable agency, in each case made subsequent to the Closing Date,
has or would have the effect of reducing by an amount reasonably deemed by such Lender to be material to the rate of return on such Lender’s or its parent corporation’s capital or assets as a consequence of such Lender’s commitments
or obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or its parent corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, effectiveness, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or its parent corporation’s
policies with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time, within 15 days after demand by such Lender (with a copy to the Global Agent), the applicable Borrower(s) shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will
compensate such Lender or its parent corporation for such reduction. Each Lender, upon determining in good faith that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section 3.01(c), will give prompt written notice thereof to the applicable
Borrower(s), which notice shall set forth, in reasonable detail, the basis of the calculation of such additional amounts, which basis must be reasonable, although the failure to give any such notice shall not release or diminish any of such
Borrower’s obligations to pay additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.01(c) upon the subsequent receipt of such notice. 
 (d)
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (i) no Lender shall be entitled to compensation or payment or reimbursement of other amounts under Section 3.01 or Section 3.04 for any amounts incurred or accruing more than 120 days
prior to the giving of notice to the applicable Borrower of additional costs or other amounts of the nature described in such Sections, and (ii) no Lender shall demand compensation for any reduction referred to in Section 3.01(c) or payment or

  

 68 

 
reimbursement of other amounts under Section 3.04 if it shall not at the time be the general policy or practice of such Lender to demand such compensation,
payment or reimbursement in similar circumstances under comparable provisions of other credit agreements. 
 Section 3.02 Breakage
Compensation. Each Borrower shall compensate each Lender (including the Swing Line Lender), upon its written request (which request shall set forth the detailed basis for requesting and the method of calculating such compensation), for all
reasonable losses, costs, expenses and liabilities (including, without limitation, any loss, cost, expense or liability incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds required by such Lender to fund its Fixed Rate
Loans or Swing Loans and costs associated with foreign currency hedging obligations incurred by such Lender in connection with any Fixed Rate Loan, but excluding any loss of the Applicable Margin on such Loans) which such Lender may sustain in
connection with any of the foregoing: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by such Lender or the Global Agent) a Borrowing of Fixed Rate Loans or Swing Loans does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or a
Notice of Continuation or Conversion (whether or not withdrawn by such Borrower or deemed withdrawn pursuant to Section 3.01(a)); (ii) in connection with the adjustment of any of the Obligations pursuant to Section 2.10; (iii) if any
repayment, prepayment, Conversion or Continuation of any of its Fixed Rate Loans occurs on a date that is not the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto or any Swing Loan is paid prior to the Swing Loan Maturity Date applicable thereto;
(iv) if any prepayment of any of its Fixed Rate Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by such Borrower; (v) as a result of an assignment by a Lender of any Fixed Rate Loan other than on the last day of the
Interest Period applicable thereto pursuant to a request by such Borrower pursuant to Section 3.05(b); or (vi) as a consequence of (x) any other default by such Borrower to repay or prepay its Fixed Rate Loans when required by the terms of
this Agreement or (y) an election made pursuant to Section 3.05(b). The written request of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Company and
each other Borrower responsible therefor and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such request within 10 days after receipt thereof. 
 Section 3.03 Net Payments. 
 (a) All
payments made by each Borrower hereunder, under any Note or any other Loan Document, and all payments made by the Company pursuant to its guaranty obligations under Article X, shall be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense. Except
as provided for in Section 3.03(b), all such payments will be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees, assessments or other charges of whatever nature now or
hereafter imposed by any jurisdiction or by any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein with respect to such payments (but excluding, except as provided in the second succeeding sentence, any tax imposed on or measured by the
net income or net profits of a Lender and franchise taxes imposed on it pursuant to the laws of the jurisdiction under which such Lender is organized or the jurisdiction in which the principal office or the Domestic Lending Office or Foreign Lending
Office of such Lender, as applicable, is located or any subdivision thereof or therein) and all interest, penalties or similar liabilities with respect to such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees, assessments or other charges (all such
non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees, assessments or other charges being referred to collectively as “Taxes”). If any Taxes are so levied or imposed, the applicable Borrower agrees to pay the full amount of such Taxes
and such additional amounts as may be necessary so that every payment by it of all amounts due hereunder, under any Note or under any other Loan Document, after withholding or deduction for or on account of any Taxes will not be less than the amount
provided for herein or in such Note or in such other Loan Document. If any amounts are payable in respect of Taxes pursuant to the preceding sentence, such Borrower agrees to reimburse each Lender, upon the written request of such Lender for taxes
imposed on or measured by the net income or profits of such Lender by reason of the 

  

 69 

 
payment of such Taxes and net of any tax benefits received by such Lender pursuant to the laws of the jurisdiction in which such Lender is organized or in
which the principal office or Domestic Lending Office or Foreign Lending Office of such Lender is located, as the case may be, or under the laws of any political subdivision or taxing authority of any such jurisdiction in which the principal office
or the Domestic Lending Office or Foreign Lending Office of such Lender is located, as the case may be, and for any withholding of income or similar taxes imposed by the United States of America or, in the case of any Canadian Lender, Canada as such
Lender shall determine are payable by, or withheld from, such Lender in respect of such amounts so paid to or on behalf of such Lender pursuant to the preceding sentence and in respect of any amounts paid to or on behalf of such Lender pursuant to
this sentence, which request shall be accompanied by a statement from such Lender setting forth, in reasonable detail, the computations used in determining such amounts. Each Borrower will furnish to the Global Agent within 45 days after the date
the payment of any Taxes, or any withholding or deduction on account thereof, is due pursuant to applicable law certified copies of tax receipts, or other evidence satisfactory to the respective Lender, evidencing such payment by such Borrower. Each
Borrower will indemnify and hold harmless the Global Agent and each Lender, and reimburse the Global Agent or such Lender upon its written request, for the amount of any Taxes attributable to such Borrower so levied or imposed and paid or withheld
by such Lender. 
 (b) Each Lender that is not a United States Person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) for
Federal income tax purposes agrees to provide to the Company and the Global Agent on or prior to the Closing Date, or in the case of a Lender that is an assignee or transferee of an interest under this Agreement pursuant to Section 11.05 (unless the
respective Lender was already a Lender hereunder immediately prior to such assignment or transfer and such Lender is in compliance with the provisions of this Section), on the date of such assignment or transfer to such Lender, and from time to time
thereafter if required by the Company or the Global Agent: (i) two accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Forms 1001, 4224, W-8BEN, W-8ECI, W-8EXP or W-8IMY (or successor, substitute or other appropriate forms)
certifying to such Lender’s entitlement to a complete exemption from, or a reduced rate of withholding from, United States withholding tax with respect to payments to be made under this Agreement, any Note or any other Loan Document, or
(ii) if the Lender cannot deliver the appropriate Internal Revenue Service Forms referred to in clause (i) above, (x) a certificate in form and substance satisfactory to the Global Agent (any such certificate, an “Exemption
Certificate”) and (y) other appropriate documentation certifying to such Lender’s entitlement to a complete exemption from, or reduced rate of withholding from, United States withholding tax with respect to payments of interest to
be made under this Agreement, any Note or any other Loan Document. In addition, each Lender agrees that from time to time after the Closing Date, when a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders the previous certification obsolete or
inaccurate in any material respect, it will deliver to the Company and the Global Agent two new accurate and complete original signed copies of the applicable Internal Revenue Service Form, or an Exemption Certificate and related documentation, as
the case may be, and such other forms as may be required to confirm or establish the entitlement of such Lender to a continued exemption from or reduction in United States withholding tax with respect to payments under this Agreement, any Note or
any other Loan Document, or it shall immediately notify the Company and the Global Agent of its inability to deliver any such Form or Exemption Certificate and related documentation, in which case such Lender shall not be required to deliver any
such Form or Exemption Certificate and related documentation pursuant to this Section 3.03(b). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 3.03(a), but subject to Section 11.05(c) and the immediately succeeding sentence,
(x) each Borrower shall be entitled, to the extent it is required to do so by law, to deduct or withhold income or other similar taxes imposed by the United States (or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein) from
interest, fees or other amounts payable hereunder for the account of any Lender that is not a United States Person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) for United States federal income tax purposes and that has not
provided to the Company such Forms or such Exemption Certificate and related documentation that 

  

 70 

 
establish a complete exemption from or reduction in the rate of such deduction or withholding and (y) no Borrower shall be obligated pursuant to Section
3.03(a) to gross-up payments to be made to a Lender in respect of income or similar taxes imposed by the United States or any additional amounts with respect thereto (A) if such Lender has not provided to the Company the Internal Revenue
Service forms required to be provided to the Company pursuant to this Section 3.03(b) or (B) in the case of a payment other than interest, to a Lender described in clause (ii) above, to the extent that such forms do not establish a
complete exemption from withholding of such taxes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the preceding sentence or elsewhere in this Section 3.03 and except as specifically provided for in Section 11.05(c), each Borrower agrees to
pay additional amounts and indemnify each Lender in the manner set forth in Section 3.03(a) (without regard to the identity of the jurisdiction requiring the deduction or withholding) in respect of any Taxes deducted or withheld by it as described
in the previous sentence as a result of any changes after the Closing Date in any applicable law, treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order, or in the interpretation thereof, relating to the deducting or withholding of income or
similar Taxes. 
 (c) If any Lender, in its sole opinion, determines that it has finally and irrevocably received or been granted a refund in
respect of any Taxes paid as to which indemnification has been paid by any Borrower pursuant to this Section, it shall promptly remit to such Borrower such refund (including any interest received in respect thereof), net of all out-of-pocket costs
and expenses; provided, however, that such Borrower agrees to promptly return any such refund (plus interest) to such Lender in the event such Lender is required to repay such refund to the relevant taxing authority. Any such Lender shall
provide such Borrower with a copy of any notice of assessment from the relevant taxing authority (redacting any unrelated confidential information contained therein) requiring repayment of such refund. Nothing contained herein shall impose an
obligation on any Lender to apply for any such refund or disclose its tax returns or any other information regarding its taxes that it reasonably deems confidential. 
 Section 3.04 Increased Costs to LC Issuers. If after the Closing Date, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration
thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any LC Issuer or any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law)
by any such authority, central bank or comparable agency (in each case made subsequent to the Closing Date) shall either (i) impose, modify or make applicable any reserve, deposit, capital adequacy or similar requirement against Letters of
Credit issued by such LC Issuer or such Lender’s participation therein, or (ii) shall impose on such LC Issuer or any Lender any other conditions affecting this Agreement, any Letter of Credit or such Lender’s participation therein;
and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such LC Issuer or such Lender of issuing, maintaining or participating in any Letter of Credit, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such LC Issuer or such
Lender hereunder (other than any increased cost or reduction in the amount received or receivable resulting from the imposition of or a change in the rate of taxes or similar charges), then, upon demand to the applicable Borrowers by such LC Issuer
or such Lender (a copy of which notice shall be sent by such LC Issuer or such Lender to the Global Agent), each such Borrower shall pay to such LC Issuer or such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate any such LC Issuer or such
Lender for such increased cost or reduction. A certificate submitted to such Borrower by any LC Issuer or any Lender, as the case may be (a copy of which certificate shall be sent by such LC Issuer or such Lender to the Global Agent), setting forth,
in reasonable detail, the basis for the determination of such additional amount or amounts necessary to compensate any LC Issuer or such Lender as aforesaid shall be conclusive and binding on such Borrower absent manifest error, although the failure
to deliver any such certificate shall not release or diminish any of such Borrower’s obligations to pay additional amounts pursuant to this Section. 
  

 71 

 Section 3.05 Change of Lending Office; Replacement of Lenders. 
 (a) Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 3.01(a)(ii) or (iii), Section 3.01(c), Section 3.03
or Section 3.04 with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Company, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another Domestic Lending Office or Foreign Lending Office for any Loans
or Commitments affected by such event; provided, however, that such designation is made on such terms that such Lender and its Domestic Lending Office or Foreign Lending Office, as the case may be, suffer no economic, legal or regulatory
disadvantage, with the object of avoiding the consequence of the event giving rise to the operation of any such Section. 
 (b) If
(i) any Lender requests any compensation, reimbursement or other payment under Section 3.01(a)(ii) or (iii), 3.01(c) or Section 3.04 with respect to such Lender, (ii) any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or
Governmental Authority pursuant to Section 3.03, or (iii) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, then the Company may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Global Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate,
without recourse (in accordance with the restrictions contained in Section 11.05(c)), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations; provided, however, that
(x) the Company shall have received the prior written consent of the Global Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, (y) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of
its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the applicable Borrower or Borrowers (in the case of
all other amounts, including any breakage compensation under Section 3.02), and (z) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation, reimbursement or other payments required to be made under Section 3.01(a)(ii) or
(iii), (c) or Section 3.04 with respect to such Lender, or resulting from any required payments to any Lender or Governmental Authority pursuant to Section 3.03, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation, reimbursement or
payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Company to require such assignment and delegation cease to
apply. 
 (c) Nothing in this Section 3.05 shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrowers or the right of any Lender
provided in Section 3.01, Section 3.03 or Section 3.04.

 ARTICLE V. 
 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 
 In order to induce the Global Agent, the Lenders and each LC Issuer to enter into this Agreement and to make the Loans and to issue and to participate in
the Letters of Credit provided for herein, the Company and, if applicable, each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower (as to itself only) makes the following representations and warranties to, and agreements with, the Global Agent, the Lenders and each LC
Issuer, all of which shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and each Credit Event: 
 Section 5.01 Corporate Status,
etc. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries (i) is a duly organized or formed and validly existing corporation, partnership or limited liability company, as the case may be, in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its
formation and has the corporate, partnership or limited liability company power and authority, as applicable, to own its property and assets and to transact the business in which it is engaged and presently proposes to engage, and (ii) has duly
qualified and is authorized to do business in all jurisdictions where it is required to be so qualified or authorized except where the failure to be so qualified would not have a Material Adverse Effect. Schedule 5.01 lists, as of the Closing
Date, each Subsidiary of the Company (and the direct and indirect ownership interest of the Company therein). 
 Section 5.02 Corporate
Power and Authority, etc. Each Credit Party has the corporate or other organizational power and authority to execute, deliver and carry out the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents to which it is party and has taken all necessary corporate
or other organizational action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents to which it is party. Each Credit Party has duly executed and delivered each Loan Document to which it is party and each Loan Document to which
it is party constitutes the legal, valid and binding agreement and obligation of such Credit Party enforceable in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that the enforceability thereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws generally affecting creditors’ rights and by equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law). 
 Section 5.03 No Violation. Neither the execution, delivery and performance by any Credit Party of the Loan Documents to which it is party nor
compliance with the terms and provisions thereof (i) will contravene any provision of any law, statute, rule, regulation, order, writ, injunction or decree of any Governmental Authority applicable to such Credit Party or its properties and
assets, (ii) will conflict with or result in any breach of, any of the terms, covenants, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of (or the obligation to create or impose, except with
respect to the Senior Indenture) any Lien (other than the Liens created pursuant to the Security Documents) upon any of the property or assets of such Credit Party pursuant to the terms of any promissory note, bond, debenture, indenture, mortgage,
deed of trust, credit or loan agreement, or any other agreement or other instrument, to which such Credit Party is a party or by which it or any of its 

  

 77 

 
property or assets are bound or to which it may be subject, or (iii) will violate any provision of the Organizational Documents of such Credit Party.

 Section 5.04 Governmental Approvals. No order, consent, approval, license, authorization, or validation of, or filing, recording or
registration with, or exemption by, any Governmental Authority is required to authorize or is required as a condition to (i) the execution, delivery and performance by any Credit Party of any Loan Document to which it is a party or any of its
obligations thereunder, or (ii) the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of any Loan Document to which any Credit Party is a party, except the filing and recording of financing statements and other documents necessary in
order to perfect the Liens created by the Security Documents and those consents and approvals that will have been obtained at the time any Subsidiary becomes a Borrower hereunder. 
 Section 5.05 Litigation. There are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of any Borrower, threatened with respect to any
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (i) that have had, or could reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect, or (ii) that question the validity or enforceability of any of the Loan Documents, or of any action to be taken by
the Company or any of the other Credit Parties pursuant to any of the Loan Documents. 
 Section 5.06 Use of Proceeds; Margin
Regulations. 
 (a) The proceeds of all Loans and LC Issuances shall be utilized to refinance existing senior and subordinated debt
facilities, provide funds for any Permitted Note Purchase and Exchanges and the payment of exchange and consent solicitation fees, as applicable, in connection therewith, Share Repurchases, Permitted Acquisitions and to provide working capital and
funds for general corporate purposes, in each case, not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement. 
 (b) No part of the proceeds of any
Credit Event will be used directly or indirectly to purchase or carry Margin Stock, or to extend credit to others for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock, in violation of any of the provisions of Regulations T, U or X of the Board
of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. No Borrower is engaged in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock. At no time would more than 25% of the value of the assets of the Company or of the
Company and its consolidated Subsidiaries that are subject to any “arrangement” (as such term is used in Section 221.2(g) of such Regulation U) hereunder be represented by Margin Stock. 
 Section 5.07 Financial Statements, etc. 
 (a) The Company has furnished to the Global Agent and the Lenders complete and correct copies of (i) the audited consolidated balance sheets of the Company and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of February 28, 2005 and the related
audited consolidated statements of income, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows of the Company and its consolidated Subsidiaries for the fiscal year of the Company then ended, accompanied by the report thereon of Ernst & Young LLP; and
(ii) the condensed consolidated balance sheets of the Company and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of November 30, 2006 and the related condensed consolidated statements of income and of cash flows of the Company and its consolidated
Subsidiaries for the fiscal period then ended, as included in the Company’s Report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC. All such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, consistently applied (except as stated therein), and
fairly present the financial position of the Company and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of the respective dates indicated and the consolidated results of their operations and cash flows for the respective periods indicated, subject in the case of
any such financial statements that are unaudited, to normal audit adjustments, none of which will involve a Material Adverse Effect. The Company and its consolidated Subsidiaries did not have, as of the date of the latest financial

statements referred to above, and will not have as of the Closing Date after giving effect to the incurrence of Loans or LC Issuances hereunder, any material
or significant contingent liability or liability for taxes, long-term lease or unusual forward or long-term commitment that is not reflected in the foregoing financial statements or the notes thereto in accordance with GAAP and that in any such case
is material in relation to the business, operations, properties, assets, financial or other condition or prospects of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole. 
 (b) The financial projections of the Company and its Subsidiaries for the fiscal years 2007 through 2010 prepared by the Company and delivered to the Global Agent and the Lenders (the “Financial
Projections”) were prepared on behalf of the Company in good faith after taking into account historical levels of business activity of the Company and its Subsidiaries, known trends, including general economic trends, and all other
information, assumptions and estimates considered by management of the Company and its Subsidiaries to be pertinent thereto; provided, however, that no representation or warranty is made as to the impact of future general economic
conditions or as to whether the Company’s projected consolidated results as set forth in the Financial Projections will actually be realized, it being recognized by the Lenders that such projections as to future events are not to be viewed as
facts and that actual results for the periods covered by the Financial Projections may differ materially from the Financial Projections. No facts are known to the Company as of the Closing Date which are not reflected in the Financial Projections
and if reflected in the Financial Projections would result in a material adverse change in the assets, liabilities, results of operations or cash flows reflected therein. 
 Section 5.08 Solvency. Each Borrower has received consideration that is the reasonable equivalent value of the obligations and liabilities that such Borrower has incurred to the Global Agent, each LC Issuer and
the Lenders under the Loan Documents. Each Borrower now has capital sufficient to carry on its business and transactions and all business and transactions in which it is about to engage and is now solvent and able to pay its debts as they mature and
such Borrower, as of the Closing Date or as of the date such Borrower became a “Borrower” hereunder, owns property having a value, both at fair valuation and at present fair salable value, greater than the amount required to pay such
Borrower’s debts; and no Borrower is entering into the Loan Documents with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud its creditors. For purposes of this Section, “debt” means any liability on a claim, and “claim”
means (x) right to payment whether or not such a right is reduced to judgment, liquidated, unliquidated, fixed, contingent, matured, unmatured, disputed, undisputed, legal, equitable, secured or unsecured; or (y) right to an equitable
remedy for breach of performance if such breach gives rise to a payment, whether or not such right to an equitable remedy is reduced to judgment, fixed, contingent, matured, unmatured, disputed, undisputed, secured or unsecured. 
 Section 5.09 No Material Adverse Change. Since February 28, 2005, there has been no change in the condition, business, affairs or prospects
of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, or their properties and assets considered as an entirety, except for changes none of which, individually or in the aggregate, has had or could reasonably be expected to have, a Material
Adverse Effect. 
 Section 5.10 Tax Returns and Payments. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries has filed all federal income tax
returns and all other material tax returns, domestic and foreign, required to be filed by it and has paid all material taxes and assessments payable by it that have become due, other than those not yet delinquent and except for those contested in
good faith. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries have established on their books such charges, accruals and reserves in respect of taxes, assessments, fees and other governmental charges for all fiscal periods as are required by GAAP. No
Borrower knows of any proposed assessment for additional federal, foreign or state taxes for any period, or of any basis therefor, which, individually or in the aggregate, taking into account such charges, 

  

 79 

 
accruals and reserves in respect thereof as the Company and its Subsidiaries have made, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 Section 5.11 Title to Properties, etc. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries has good and marketable title, in the case of Real
Property, and good title (or valid Leaseholds, in the case of any leased property, or valid licenses, in the case of any licensed property), in the case of all other property, to all of its properties and assets free and clear of Liens other than
Permitted Liens. The interests of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries in the properties reflected in the most recent balance sheet referred to in Section 5.07(a), taken as a whole, were sufficient, in the judgment of each Borrower, as of the
date of such balance sheet for purposes of the ownership and operation of the businesses conducted by the Borrowers and such Subsidiaries. 
 Section 5.12 Lawful Operations, etc. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries: (i) hold all necessary foreign, federal, state, local and other governmental licenses, registrations, certifications, permits and authorizations
necessary to conduct their business; and (ii) are in full compliance with all material requirements imposed by law, regulation or rule, whether foreign, federal, state or local, that are applicable to it, its operations, or their properties and
assets, including without limitation, applicable requirements of Environmental Laws, except in each case for any failure to hold such governmental licenses, registrations, certifications, permits and/or authorizations, or noncompliance with
any such law, regulation or rule, that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 Section 5.13 Environmental Matters. 
 (a) The Company and each of its Subsidiaries are in compliance with all applicable
Environmental Laws, except to the extent that any such failure to comply (together with any resulting penalties, fines or forfeitures) would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. All licenses, permits, registrations or
approvals required for the conduct of the business of the Borrowers and each of their Subsidiaries under any Environmental Law have been secured and the Borrowers and each of their Subsidiaries are in substantial compliance therewith, except for
such licenses, permits, registrations or approvals the failure to secure or to comply therewith is not reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has received written notice, or otherwise
knows, that it is in any respect in noncompliance with, breach of or default under any applicable writ, order, judgment, injunction, or decree to which the Company or such Subsidiary is a party or that would affect the ability of the Company or such
Subsidiary to operate any Real Property and no event has occurred and is continuing that, with the passage of time or the giving of notice or both, would constitute noncompliance, breach of or default thereunder, except in each such case, such
noncompliance, breaches or defaults as would not reasonably be expected to, in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. There are no Environmental Claims pending or, to the best knowledge of any Borrower, threatened wherein an unfavorable
decision, ruling or finding would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There are no facts, circumstances, conditions or occurrences on any Real Property now or at any time owned, leased or operated by the Borrowers or any of
their Subsidiaries or on any property adjacent to any such Real Property, that are known by any such Borrower or as to which any Borrower or any such Subsidiary has received written notice, that could reasonably be expected: (i) to form the
basis of an Environmental Claim against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any Real Property of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; or (ii) to cause such Real Property to be subject to any restrictions on the ownership, occupancy,
use or transferability of such Real Property under any Environmental Law, except in each such case, such Environmental Claims or restrictions that individually or in the aggregate could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

  

 80 

 (b) Hazardous Materials have not at any time been (i) generated, used, treated or stored on, or
transported to or from, any Real Property of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or (ii) released on any such Real Property, in each case where such occurrence or event is not in compliance with Environmental Laws and is reasonably likely to
have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 Section 5.14 Compliance with ERISA. Compliance by the Borrowers with the provisions hereof and
Credit Events contemplated hereby will not involve any prohibited transaction within the meaning of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries, (i) have fulfilled all obligations under minimum funding
standards of ERISA and the Code with respect to each Plan that is not a Multiemployer Plan or a Multiple Employer Plan, (ii) have satisfied all respective contribution obligations in respect of each Multiemployer Plan and each Multiple Employer
Plan, (iii) are in compliance in all material respects with all other applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code with respect to each Plan, each Multiemployer Plan and each Multiple Employer Plan, and (iv) have not incurred any liability
under Title IV of ERISA to the PBGC with respect to any Plan, any Multiemployer Plan, any Multiple Employer Plan, or any trust established thereunder. No Plan or trust created thereunder has been terminated, and there have been no Reportable Events,
with respect to any Plan or trust created thereunder or with respect to any Multiemployer Plan or Multiple Employer Plan, which termination or Reportable Event will or could result in the termination of such Plan, Multiemployer Plan or Multiple
Employer Plan and give rise to a material liability of the Company or any ERISA Affiliate in respect thereof. Neither the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate is at the date hereof, or has been at any time within the two years preceding the date hereof,
an employer required to contribute to any Multiemployer Plan or Multiple Employer Plan, or a “contributing sponsor” (as such term is defined in Section 4001 of ERISA) in any Multiemployer Plan or Multiple Employer Plan. Neither the
Company nor any ERISA Affiliate has any contingent liability with respect to any post-retirement “welfare benefit plan” (as such term is defined in ERISA) except as has been disclosed to the Global Agent and the Lenders in writing.

 Section 5.15 Investment Company Act, etc. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is subject to regulation with respect to
the creation or incurrence of Indebtedness under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, the Interstate Commerce Act, as amended, the Federal Power Act, as amended, or any applicable state public utility law. 
 Section 5.16 Insurance. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries maintains insurance coverage by such insurers and in such forms and amounts and
against such risks as are generally consistent with industry standards and in each case in compliance with the terms of Section 6.03. 
 Section 5.17 Burdensome Contracts; Labor Relations. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries (i) is subject to any burdensome contract, agreement, corporate restriction, judgment, decree or order, (ii) is a party to
any labor dispute affecting any bargaining unit or other group of employees generally, (iii) is subject to any material strike, slow down, workout or other concerted interruptions of operations by employees of the Company or any Subsidiary,
whether or not relating to any labor contracts, (iv) is subject to any significant pending or, to the knowledge of any Borrower, threatened, unfair labor practice complaint, before the National Labor Relations Board, (v) is subject to any
significant pending or, to the knowledge of any Borrower, threatened, grievance or significant arbitration proceeding arising out of or under any collective bargaining agreement, (vi) is subject to any significant pending or, to the knowledge
of any Borrower, threatened, significant strike, labor dispute, slowdown or stoppage, or (vii) is, to the knowledge of any Borrower, involved or subject to any union representation organizing or certification matter with respect to the
employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, except (with respect to any matter specified in any of the above clauses), for such matters as, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect. 
  

 81 

 Section 5.18 Security Interests. Once executed and delivered, and until the Collateral Release
Date or otherwise terminated in accordance with the terms thereof, each of the Security Documents creates, as security for the Obligations (as defined in the Security Agreement), a valid and enforceable, and upon making the filings and recordings
referenced in the next sentence, perfected security interest in and Lien on all of the Collateral subject thereto from time to time, in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties (as defined in the Security Agreement),
superior to and prior to the rights of all third persons and subject to no other Liens, except that the Collateral under the Security Documents may be subject to Permitted Liens. No filings or recordings are required in order to perfect the
security interests created under any Security Document except for filings or recordings required in connection with (a) any such Security Document that shall have been made, or for which satisfactory arrangements have been made, upon or prior
to the execution and delivery thereof, (b) any assets of John Sands (Australia) Ltd. or John Sands (N.Z.) Ltd. located in Australia or New Zealand, as applicable, and (c) any assets located at sales offices in Hong Kong and the
People’s Republic of China. All recording, stamp, intangible or other similar taxes required to be paid by any Person under applicable legal requirements or other laws applicable to the property encumbered by the Security Documents in
connection with the execution, delivery, recordation, filing, registration, perfection or enforcement thereof have been paid.

future information consisting of financial projections prepared by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is only represented herein as being based on good faith estimates and assumptions believed by such persons to be reasonable at the time made,
it being recognized by the Lenders that such projections as to future events are not to be viewed as facts and that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such projections may differ materially from the projected results.

 Section 5.20 Certain Material Indebtedness. 
 (a) Senior Indenture. No Event of Default (as defined in the Senior Indenture) or event or condition that, with the passage of time or giving of notice or both, would constitute an Event of Default (as defined

paid all costs and expenses incurred in connection with such compliance, except to the extent that such compliance with Environmental Laws is being contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings and for which adequate reserves have
been established to the extent required by GAAP, and an adverse outcome in such proceedings is not reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 (b) Each Borrower will keep or cause to be kept, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to keep or cause to be kept, all such Real Property free and clear of any Liens imposed pursuant to such Environmental Laws

its Subsidiaries to undertake, any clean up, removal, remedial or other action necessary to remove and clean up any Hazardous Materials from any Real Property owned, leased or operated by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in accordance with, in

Guaranty, or any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower acquires, creates or has any Subsidiary that is not already a party to a Foreign Subsidiary Guaranty, the Company or such Foreign Borrower Subsidiary will promptly, but in any event within 10 Business

Subsidiary entitled to vote and having total assets greater than $5,000,000, and (iv) the stock or other equity interest of any Subsidiary of a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall serve as security for any of the Obligations of such Foreign

assurances or instruments and take such further steps relating to the Collateral covered by any of the Security Documents as the Global Agent or the Collateral Agent may reasonably require. If at any time the Global Agent determines, based on
applicable law, that all applicable taxes (including, without limitation, mortgage recording taxes or similar charges)

events of default or other type of restriction that would have the practical effect of any affirmative or negative business or financial covenant, including, without limitation, any “put” or mandatory prepayment of such Indebtedness upon
the occurrence of a “change of control”) that are applicable to any Credit Party, other than those set forth herein or in any of the other Loan Documents, the Company shall promptly so notify the Global Agent and the Lenders and, if the
Global Agent shall so request by written notice to the Company (after a determination has been made by the Required Lenders that any of the above-referenced documents or instruments contain any such provisions, that either individually or in the
aggregate are more favorable to the holders of such unsecured Indebtedness than any of the provisions set forth herein), the Company, the Global Agent and the Lenders shall promptly amend this Agreement to incorporate some or all of such provisions,
in the discretion of the Global Agent and the Required Lenders, into this Agreement and, to the extent necessary and reasonably desirable to the Global Agent and the Required Lenders, into any of the other Loan Documents, all at the election of the
Global Agent and the Required Lenders.

subject to subpart (a)(ii) below) hereunder (whether by voluntary payment, by realization upon security, by the exercise of the right of setoff or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action, by the enforcement of any right under the Loan
Documents, or otherwise) that is applicable to the payment of the principal of, or interest on, the Loans (other than Swing Loans), Revolving Facility LC Participations, Swing Line Participations or Fees (other than Fees that are intended to be paid
solely to the Global Agent or a LC Issuer and amounts payable to a Lender under Article III), of a sum that with respect to the related sum or sums received by other Lenders is in a greater proportion than the total of such Obligation then owed and
due to such Lender (based on such Lender’s ratable share thereof as determined in accordance with Section 2.17, Section 8.03(a) or Section 8.01(a) or specifically set forth elsewhere in this Agreement) bears to the total of such Obligation then
owed and due to all of the Lenders immediately prior to such receipt, then such Lender receiving such excess payment shall purchase for cash without recourse or warranty from the other Lenders an interest in the Obligations (other than the

payment shall purchase for cash without recourse or warranty from the other Canadian Lenders an interest in the Canadian Obligations to such Canadian Lenders in such amount as shall result in a proportional participation by all of the Canadian
Lenders in such amount. 
 (iii) Recovery of Amounts. If any amount paid to any Lender pursuant to subparts (i) or

any of their Subsidiaries), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Global Agent. The Global Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall
first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or
continuing to take any such action. The Global Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or all of the

request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders. 
 Section 9.05 Notice of

describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” In the event that the Global Agent receives such a notice, the Global Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. The Global

representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Global Agent hereinafter taken, including, without limitation, any review of the affairs of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or
warranty by the Global Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Global Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Global Agent, or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed
appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, assets, operations, property, financial and other conditions, prospects and creditworthiness of the Company and its Subsidiaries and made its own decision to make its Loans
hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Global Agent, or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time,

other conditions, prospects and creditworthiness of the Company and its Subsidiaries. The Global Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, assets,
property, financial and other conditions, prospects or creditworthiness of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that may come into the possession of the Global Agent or any of its Related Parties.

any of its Affiliates, participants or assignees, may rely on the Global Agent to carry out such Lender’s, Affiliate’s, participant’s or assignee’s customer identification program, or other obligations required or imposed under
or pursuant to the USA Patriot Act or the regulations thereunder, including the regulations contained in 31 CFR 103.121 (as hereafter amended or replaced, the “CIP Regulations”), or any other Anti-Terrorism Law, including any

contemplated by or referred to herein or the transactions contemplated hereby or any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Global Agent or such Related Parties under or in connection with any of the foregoing, but only to the extent that any of
the foregoing are not paid by the Borrowers; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable to the Global Agent or any of its Related Parties for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties,
actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements to the extent resulting solely from the Global Agent’s or such Related Parties’ gross negligence or willful misconduct. If any indemnity furnished to the Global Agent or any such
Related Parties for any purpose shall, in the opinion of the Global Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, the Global Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional
indemnity is furnished. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of all Obligations. 
 Section 9.10 The Global Agent in
Individual Capacity. The Global Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the 

  

 105 

 
Company, its Subsidiaries and their Affiliates as though not acting as Global Agent hereunder. With respect to the Loans made by it and all Obligations owing
to it, the Global Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Global Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include the Global
Agent in its individual capacity. 
 Section 9.11 Successor Global Agent. The Global Agent may resign at any time upon not less than
30 days notice to the Lenders, each LC Issuer and the Company. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Company, to appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been
so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Global Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Global Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and each LC Issuer,
appoint a successor Global Agent; provided, however, that if the Global Agent shall notify the Company and the Lenders that no such successor is willing to accept such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in
accordance with such notice and (i) the retiring Global Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Global Agent on
behalf of the Lenders or any LC Issuer under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Global Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Global Agent is appointed) and (ii) all payments, communications
and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Global Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and LC Issuer directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Global Agent as provided for above in this
paragraph. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Global Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Global Agent, and the
retiring Global Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this paragraph). The fees payable by the Company to a successor
Global Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Company and such successor. After the retiring Global Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of
this Article and Section 11.02 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Global Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring
Global Agent was acting as Global Agent. 
 Section 9.12 Other Agents. Any Lender identified herein as a Co-Agent, Syndication Agent,
Documentation Agent, Managing Agent, Manager, Lead Arranger, Arranger or any other corresponding title, other than “Global Agent,” shall have no right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement or any other
Loan Document except those applicable to all Lenders as such. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any Lender so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking any action hereunder.

 ARTICLE X. 
 GUARANTY

 Section 10.01 Guaranty by the Company. The Company hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, for the benefit of the
Benefited Creditors, all of the following (collectively, the “Company Guaranteed Obligations”): (a) (i) the principal of and interest on the Notes issued by, and the Loans made to, and the other Obligations of, the Foreign
Subsidiary Borrowers under this Agreement, and (ii) all reimbursement obligations and Unpaid Drawings with respect to Letters of Credit issued for the benefit of any LC Obligor (other than the Company) under this Agreement, and (b) all
amounts, indemnities and reimbursement obligations, direct or indirect, contingent or absolute, of every type or 

  

 106 

 
description, and at any time existing, owing by any Subsidiary of the Company under any Designated Hedge Agreement or any other document or agreement
executed and delivered in connection therewith to any Designated Hedge Creditor, in all cases under subparts (a) or (b) above, whether now existing, or hereafter incurred or arising, including any such interest or other amounts incurred or
arising during the pendency of any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership or similar proceeding, regardless of whether allowed or allowable in such proceeding or subject to an automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy
Code). Upon failure by any Credit Party to pay punctually any of the Company Guarantee Obligations, the Company shall forthwith on demand by the Global Agent pay the amount not so paid at the place and in the currency and otherwise in the manner
specified in this Agreement or any other applicable agreement or instrument. This guaranty is a guaranty of payment and not of collection. 
 Section 10.02 Additional Undertaking. As a separate, additional and continuing obligation, the Company unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes and agrees, for the benefit of the Benefited Creditors that, should any amounts not be
recoverable from the Company under Section 10.01 for any reason whatsoever (including, without limitation, by reason of any provision of any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument executed in connection therewith being or becoming void,
unenforceable, or otherwise invalid under any applicable law) then, notwithstanding any notice or knowledge thereof by any Lender, the Global Agent, any of their respective Affiliates, or any other person, at any time, the Company as sole, original
and independent obligor, upon demand by the Global Agent, will make payment to the Global Agent, for the account of the Benefited Creditors, of all such obligations not so recoverable by way of full indemnity, in such currency and otherwise in such
manner as is provided in the Loan Documents or any other applicable agreement or instrument. 
 Section 10.03 Guaranty Unconditional.
The obligations of the Company under this Article shall be unconditional and absolute and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, shall not be released, discharged or otherwise affected by the occurrence, one or more times, of any of the
following: 
 (a) any extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, waiver or release in respect to any Company Guaranteed Obligation under any
agreement or instrument, by operation of law or otherwise; 
 (b) any modification or amendment of or supplement to this Agreement, any Note,
any other Loan Document, or any agreement or instrument evidencing or relating to any Company Guaranteed Obligation; 
 (c) any release,
non-perfection or invalidity of any direct or indirect security for any Company Guaranteed Obligation under any agreement or instrument evidencing or relating to any Company Guaranteed Obligation; 
 (d) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of any Credit Party or other Subsidiary or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization
or other similar proceeding affecting any Credit Party or other Subsidiary or its assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of any Credit Party or other Subsidiary contained in any agreement or instrument evidencing or relating
to any Company Guaranteed Obligation; 
 (e) the existence of any claim, set-off or other rights which the Company may have at any time
against any other Credit Party, the Global Agent, any Lender, any Affiliate of any Lender or any other person, whether in connection herewith or any unrelated transactions; 
 (f) any invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against any other Credit Party for any reason of any agreement or instrument evidencing or relating
to any Company Guaranteed Obligation, or 

  

 107 

 
any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit the payment by any Credit Party of any of the Company Guaranteed Obligations; or

 (g) any other act or omission of any kind by any other Credit Party, the Global Agent, any Lender or any other Person or any other
circumstance whatsoever which might, but for the provisions of this Article, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a Subsidiary’s obligations under the Subsidiary Guaranty or the Company’s obligations under this Article other than
the irrevocable payment in full of all Company Guaranteed Obligations. 
 Section 10.04 Company Obligations to Remain in Effect;
Restoration. The Company’s obligations under this Article shall remain in full force and effect until the Commitments shall have terminated, and the principal of and interest on the Notes and other Company Guaranteed Obligations, and all
other amounts payable by the Company, any other Credit Party or other Subsidiary, under the Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument evidencing or relating to any of the Company Guaranteed Obligations, shall have been paid in full. If at
any time any payment of any of the Company Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of such Credit Party, the Company’s obligations under this Article with
respect to such payment shall be reinstated at such time as though such payment had been due but not made at such time. 
 Section 10.05
Waiver of Acceptance, etc. The Company irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any person against any other
Credit Party or any other Person, or against any collateral or guaranty of any other Person. 
 Section 10.06 Subrogation. Until the
indefeasible payment in full of all of the Obligations and the termination of the Commitments hereunder, the Company shall have no rights, by operation of law or otherwise, upon making any payment under this Article to be subrogated to the rights of
the payee against any other Credit Party with respect to such payment or otherwise to be reimbursed, indemnified or exonerated by any such Credit Party in respect thereof. 
 Section 10.07 Effect of Stay. In the event that acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by any Credit Party under any Company
Guaranteed Obligation is stayed upon insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of such Credit Party, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of any applicable agreement or instrument evidencing or relating to any Company
Guaranteed Obligation shall nonetheless be payable by the Company under this Article forthwith on demand by the Global Agent. 
 ARTICLE XI.

 MISCELLANEOUS 
 Section 11.01
Payment of Expenses etc. The Borrowers agree to pay (or reimburse the Global Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lenders or their Affiliates, as the case may be) all of the following: (i) whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby
are consummated, for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Global Agent and the Collateral Agent in connection with the negotiation, preparation, syndication, administration and execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the
documents and instruments referred to therein and the syndication of the Commitments; (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Global Agent and the Collateral Agent in connection with any amendment, waiver or consent relating
to any of the Loan Documents that is requested by any Credit Party; (iii) all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Global Agent, the Collateral 

  

 108 

 
Agent, the Lenders and their Affiliates in connection with the enforcement of any of the Loan Documents or the other documents and instruments referred to
therein, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of any individual counsel to the Global Agent, the Collateral Agent and any Lender (including, without limitation, allocated costs of internal counsel for each of the
Global Agent, the Collateral Agent and/or any Lender unless such costs result from services provided by such internal counsel that are duplicative of services then being provided by outside counsel for the Global Agent, the Collateral Agent or such
Lender, as applicable); and (iv) any and all present and future stamp and other similar taxes with respect to the foregoing matters and save the Global Agent, the Collateral Agent and each of the Lenders harmless from and against any and all
liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay or omission (other than to the extent attributable to any such indemnified Person) to pay such taxes; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, a Foreign Subsidiary
Borrower shall only be required to pay any of the foregoing to the extent that any of the foregoing have been incurred in connection with the Obligations owing by such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower or are otherwise directly related or attributable to
such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower. 
 Section 11.02 Indemnification. Each Borrower agrees to indemnify the Global Agent, the Collateral
Agent, each Lender, and their respective Related Parties (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and hold each of them harmless against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses incurred by any of them as a result
of, or arising out of, or in any way related to, or by reason of (i) any investigation, litigation or other proceeding (whether or not any Lender is a party thereto) related to the entering into and/or performance of any Loan Document or the
use of the proceeds of any Loans or Letters of Credit hereunder or the consummation of any transactions contemplated in any Loan Document, other than any such investigation, litigation or proceeding arising out of transactions solely between any of
the Lenders or the Global Agent, transactions solely involving the assignment by a Lender of all or a portion of its Loans and Commitments, or the granting of participations therein, as provided in this Agreement, or arising solely out of any
examination of a Lender by any regulatory or other Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over it, or (ii) the actual or alleged presence of Hazardous Materials in the air, surface water or groundwater or on the surface or subsurface of any
Real Property owned, leased or at any time operated by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, the release, generation, storage, transportation, handling or disposal of Hazardous Materials at any location, whether or not owned or operated by the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries, if the Company or any such Subsidiary could have or is alleged to have any responsibility in respect thereof, the non-compliance of any such Real Property with foreign, federal, state and local laws, regulations
and ordinances (including applicable permits thereunder) applicable thereto, or any Environmental Claim asserted against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, in respect of any such Real Property, including, in the case of each of (i) and
(ii) above, without limitation, the reasonable documented fees and disbursements of counsel incurred in connection with any such investigation, litigation or other proceeding (but excluding any such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or
expenses to the extent that they are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Person to be indemnified or of any other Indemnitee
who is such Person or an Affiliate of such Person). To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay or hold harmless any Person set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, the
Company shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the indemnified liabilities that is permissible under applicable law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall only be required to
indemnify any Indemnitee pursuant to this Section to the extent that any such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses have been caused by such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower or are otherwise directly related or attributable to such Foreign
Subsidiary Borrower. 
 Section 11.03 Right of Setoff. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law or
otherwise, and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Lender is hereby authorized at any time or from time 

  

 109 

 
to time, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind to any Borrower or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly
waived, to set off and to appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Lender (including, without limitation, by branches, agencies and Affiliates of such Lender
wherever located) to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower against and on account of the Obligations and liabilities of such Borrower to such Lender under this Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents, including, without
limitation, all claims of any nature or description arising out of or connected with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand hereunder and although said Obligations,
liabilities or claims, or any of them, shall be contingent or unmatured. Each Lender agrees to promptly notify the applicable Borrowers after any such set off and application; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not
affect the validity of such set off and application. 
 Section 11.04 Notices. 
 (a) Generally. Except in the case of notices and other communications expressly permitted to be given by telephone (and except as provided in
subpart (c) below), all notices and other communications provided for herein shall be in writing and shall be delivered by hand or overnight courier service, mailed by certified or registered mail or sent by telecopier as follows:

 (b) Receipt of Notices. Notices and communications sent by hand or overnight courier service, or mailed by certified or registered mail, shall be
deemed to have been given when received; notices sent by telecopier shall be deemed to have been given when sent and receipt has been confirmed by telephone. Notices delivered through electronic communications to the extent provided in subparagraph

intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Global Agent. The Global Agent or the Company may, in their discretion, agree in a separate writing to accept notices and other communications to them hereunder by electronic communications
pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. Unless the Global Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail
address shall be 

  

 110 

 
deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested”
function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement), provided that if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have

11.04(a), or in the case of any Lender, to the Company and the Global Agent. 
 Section 11.05 Successors and Assigns. 
 (a) Successors and Assigns Generally. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto
and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that no Borrower may assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of all the Lenders (other than any Defaulting Lender), and,
provided, further, that any assignment or participation by a Lender of any of its rights and obligations hereunder shall be effected in accordance with this Section. 
 (b) Participations. Each Lender may at any time grant participations in any of its rights hereunder or under any of the Notes to an Eligible
Assignee, provided that in the case of any such participation, 
 (i) the participant shall not have any rights under
this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, including rights of consent, approval or waiver (the participant’s rights against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreement executed by such Lender in
favor of the participant relating thereto), 
 (ii) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement (including, without
limitation, its Commitments hereunder) shall remain unchanged, 
 (iii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the
other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, 
 (iv) such Lender shall remain the holder of any Note for all
purposes of this Agreement, and 
 (v) the Borrowers, the Global Agent, and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely
and directly with the selling Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, and all amounts payable by the Borrowers hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation, except
that the participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Article III to the extent that such Lender would be entitled to such benefits if the participation had not been entered into or sold, 
 and, provided further, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Lender shall transfer, grant or sell any participation under which the
participant shall have rights to approve any amendment to or waiver of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to the departure therefrom except to the extent such amendment or waiver or consent would (w) extend the final scheduled

  

 111 

 
maturity of the Loans or Letter of Credit in which such participant is participating, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or Fees
thereon (except in connection with a waiver of the applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates), or reduce the principal amount thereof or extend the time of payment thereof, or increase such participant’s participating
interest in any Commitment over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default shall not constitute a change in the terms of any such Commitment), (x) release all or any substantial
portion of the Collateral, or release any guarantor from its guaranty of any of the Obligations, except strictly in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, or (y) consent to the assignment or transfer by any Borrower of any of its
rights and obligations under this Agreement. 
 (c) Assignments by Lenders. 
 (i) Any Lender may assign all, or if less than all, a fixed portion, of its Loans, Revolving Facility LC Participations, Canadian LC
Participations, Swing Loan Participations and/or Commitments and its rights and obligations hereunder to one or more Eligible Assignees, each of which shall become a party to this Agreement as a Lender by execution of an Assignment Agreement;
provided, however, that 
 (A) except in the case (x) of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning
Lender’s Loans and/or Commitments or (y) an assignment to another Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender, the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitment so assigned (which for this purpose
includes the Loans outstanding thereunder) shall not be less than $5,000,000, and the aggregate amount of the Term Commitment so assigned (which for this purpose includes the Loans outstanding thereunder) shall not be less than $1,000,000;

 (B) no Lender that is a Canadian Lender (whether directly or by its Canadian Lending Installation) may (i) at any time prior to the
Equalization Date, assign any portion of its Revolving Commitment (including the outstanding Revolving Loans made by it thereunder) without also assigning to the same Eligible Assignee (or the Canadian Lending Installation of such Eligible Assignee)
a proportionate amount of the Canadian Commitment (and the outstanding Canadian Revolving Loans made by it thereunder) of such Lender (or the Canadian Lending Installation of such Lender), or (ii) assign any portion of its Canadian Commitment
to an Eligible Assignee who is (or whose Canadian Lending Installation is) not a resident of Canada within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada) for the purposes of the withholding tax provisions in Part XIII of the Income Tax Act
(Canada); 
 (C) in the case of any assignment to an Eligible Assignee at the time of any such assignment the Lender Register shall be
deemed modified to reflect the Commitments of such new Lender and of the existing Lenders; 
 (D) upon surrender of the old Notes, if any,
upon request of the new Lender, new Notes will be issued, at the Borrowers’ expense, to such new Lender and to the assigning Lender, to the extent needed to reflect the revised Commitments; and 
 (E) unless waived by the Global Agent, the Global Agent shall receive at the time of each such assignment, from the assigning or assignee Lender, the

  

 112 

 
payment of a non-refundable assignment fee of $3,500, except, in the case of (i) one or more assignments to an Affiliate of the assigning Lender or an
Approved Fund of the assigning Lender, in which case the assignment fee for all such assignments shall be $1,000, and (ii) an assignment involving either the Global Agent (in its capacity as a Lender) or the Syndication Agent (in its capacity
as a Lender), in which case there shall be no fee required. 
 (ii) To the extent of any assignment pursuant to this subpart
(c), the assigning Lender shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder with respect to its assigned Commitments. 
 (iii) At
the time of each assignment pursuant to this subpart (c) to a Person that is not already a Lender hereunder and that is not a United States Person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) for Federal income tax purposes
the respective assignee Lender shall provide to the Company and the Global Agent the appropriate Internal Revenue Service Forms (and, if applicable an Exemption Certificate) described in Section 3.03(b). To the extent that an assignment of all or
any portion of a Lender’s Commitment and related outstanding Obligations pursuant to this subpart (c) would, at the time of such assignment, result in increased costs under Section 3.01 from those being charged by the respective assigning
Lender prior to such assignment, then the Company shall not be obligated to pay such increased costs (although the Borrowers shall be obligated to pay any other increased costs of the type described above resulting from changes after the date of the
respective assignment). 
 (iv) With respect to any Lender, the transfer of any Commitment of such Lender and the rights to
the principal of, and interest on, any Loan made pursuant to such Commitment shall not be effective until such transfer is recorded on the Lender Register maintained by the Global Agent with respect to ownership of such Commitment and Loans and
prior to such recordation all amounts owing to the transferor with respect to such Commitment and Loans shall remain owing to the transferor. The registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of any Commitments and Loans shall be recorded by
the Global Agent on the Lender Register only upon the acceptance by the Global Agent of a properly executed and delivered Assignment Agreement pursuant to this subpart (c). 
 (v) Nothing in this Section shall prevent or prohibit (A) any Lender that is a bank, trust company or other financial institution
from pledging its Notes or Loans to a Federal Reserve Bank in support of borrowings made by such Lender from such Federal Reserve Bank, or (B) any Lender that is a trust, limited liability company, partnership or other investment company from
pledging its Notes or Loans to a trustee or agent for the benefit of holders of certificates or debt securities issued by it. No such pledge, or any assignment pursuant to or in lieu of an enforcement of such a pledge, shall relieve the transferor
Lender from its obligations hereunder. 
 (d) No SEC Registration or Blue Sky Compliance. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this
Section, no transfer or assignment of the interests or obligations of any Lender hereunder or any grant of participation therein shall be permitted if such transfer, assignment or grant would require any Borrower to file a registration statement
with the SEC or to qualify the Loans under the “Blue Sky” laws of any state. 
 (e) Representations of Lenders. Each Lender
initially party to this Agreement hereby represents, and each Person that becomes a Lender pursuant to an assignment permitted by this Section will, upon its becoming party to this Agreement, represent that it is a commercial lender, other financial
institution or other “accredited” investor (as defined in SEC Regulation D) that makes or acquires loans in the ordinary course of its business and that it will make or acquire Loans for its own account in the 

  

 113 

 
ordinary course of such business; provided, however, that subject to the preceding Section 11.05(b) and (c), the disposition of any promissory notes
or other evidences of or interests in Indebtedness held by such Lender shall at all times be within its exclusive control. 
 Section 11.06
No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of the Global Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document and no course of dealing between the Borrowers and the
Global Agent or any Lender shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any
other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. No notice to or demand on any Borrower in any case shall entitle such Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights
of the Global Agent or the Lenders to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or any LC Issuance shall not be construed as a waiver of any
Default or Event of Default, regardless of whether the Global Agent, any Lender or any LC Issuer may have had notice or knowledge of such Default or Event of Default at the time. The rights and remedies herein expressly provided are cumulative and
not exclusive of any rights or remedies that the Global Agent or any Lender would otherwise have. 
 Section 11.07 Governing Law;
Submission to Jurisdiction; Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial. 
 (a) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND THE RIGHTS AND
OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER AND THEREUNDER SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND BE GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE BORROWERS HEREBY UNCONDITIONALLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY
CLAIM TO ASSERT THAT THE LAW OF ANY JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE STATE OF NEW YORK GOVERNS THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS. Any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be brought in
the courts of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, and, by execution and delivery of this Agreement, each Borrower
hereby irrevocably accepts for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, the jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts. Each Borrower hereby further irrevocably consents to the service of process out of any of the
aforementioned courts in any such action or proceeding by the mailing of copies thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to such Borrower at its address for notices pursuant to Section 11.04, such service to become effective 30 days
after such mailing or at such earlier time as may be provided under applicable law. Nothing herein shall affect the right of the Global Agent or any Lender to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or to commence legal proceedings or
otherwise proceed against any Borrower in any other jurisdiction. 
 (b) Each Borrower hereby irrevocably waives any objection that it may
now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any of the aforesaid actions or proceedings arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document brought in the courts referred to in Section 11.07(a) above and hereby further
irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. 
 (c) EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM
ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY AMENDMENTS, WAIVERS OR OTHER MODIFICATIONS RELATING TO ANY OF THE 

  

 114 

 
FOREGOING), OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF
ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER
INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS PARAGRAPH. 
 Section 11.08
Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together
constitute one and the same agreement. A set of counterparts executed by all the parties hereto shall be lodged with the Company and the Global Agent. 
 Section 11.09 Integration. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Global Agent, for its own account and benefit and/or for the account,

 116 

 (c) To the extent the Required Lenders (or all of the Lenders (other than any Defaulting Lender), as
applicable, as shall be required by this Section) waive the provisions of Section 7.02 with respect to the sale, transfer or other disposition of any Collateral, or any Collateral is sold, transferred or disposed of as permitted by Section 7.02,
(i) such Collateral shall be sold, transferred or disposed of free and clear of the Liens created by the respective Security Documents; (ii) if such Collateral includes all of the capital stock of a Subsidiary that is a party to the

 Section 11.12 Survival of

making and repayment of the Obligations. 
 Section 11.13 Domicile of Loans. Each Lender may transfer and carry its Loans at, to or
for the account of any branch office, subsidiary or affiliate of such Lender, including any Canadian Lending Installation; provided, however, that the Borrowers shall not be responsible for costs arising under Section 3.01 resulting from any
such transfer (other than a transfer pursuant to Section 3.05) to the extent not otherwise applicable to such Lender prior to such transfer. 
 Section 11.14 Confidentiality. 
 (a) Each of the Global Agent, each LC Issuer and the Lenders agrees to maintain the
confidentiality of the Confidential Information, except that Confidential Information may be disclosed (i) to its Affiliates and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and
other advisors (it being understood that the persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Confidential Information and instructed to keep such Confidential Information confidential), (ii) to any
direct or indirect contractual counterparty in any Hedge Agreement (or to any such contractual counterparty’s professional advisor, so long as such contractual counterparty (or such professional advisor) agrees to be bound by the provisions of
this Section, (iii) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority or required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, provided that unless specifically prohibited by applicable law, regulation
or court order, each Lender shall make reasonable efforts to notify the Company of any such request or requirement prior to disclosure of such information (other than any request in connection with any examination of the financial condition or other
routine examination of such Lender by such Governmental Authority), (iv) to any other party to this Agreement, (v) to any other creditor of any Credit Party that is one of the Secured Parties (as defined in the Security Agreement) under
the Security Agreement, so long as such creditor agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section (vi) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, or any suit, action or proceeding
relating to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (vii) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to any assignee of or
participant in, or any prospective assignee of or participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, (viii) with the consent of the Company, or (x) to the extent such Confidential Information (A) is or becomes
publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section, or (B) becomes available to the Global Agent, any LC Issuer or any Lender on a non-confidential basis from a source other than a Credit Party and not otherwise in violation
of this Section. 
 (b) As used in this Section, “Confidential Information” shall mean all information received from the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries relating to such Person or its business, other than any such 

  

 117 

 
information that is available to the Global Agent, any LC Issuer or any Lender on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by such Person; provided,
however, that, in the case of information received from such Person after the Closing Date, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. 
 (c) Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Confidential Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with
its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Confidential Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. The Borrowers hereby agree that the
failure of the Global Agent, any LC Issuer or any Lender to comply with the provisions of this Section shall not relieve any Borrower, or any other Credit Party, of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

 Section 11.15 Limitations on Liability of the LC Issuers. The Borrowers assume all risks of the acts or omissions of any
beneficiary or transferee of any Letter of Credit with respect to its use of such Letters of Credit. Neither any LC Issuer nor any of its officers or directors shall be liable or responsible for: (a) the use that may be made of any Letter of
Credit or any acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee in connection therewith; (b) the validity, sufficiency or genuineness of documents, or of any endorsement thereon, even if such documents should prove to be in any or all respects
invalid, insufficient, fraudulent or forged; (c) payment by a LC Issuer against presentation of documents that do not comply with the terms of a Letter of Credit, including failure of any documents to bear any reference or adequate reference to
such Letter of Credit; or (d) any other circumstances whatsoever in making or failing to make payment under any Letter of Credit, except that the LC Obligor shall have a claim against a LC Issuer, and a LC Issuer shall be liable to such
LC Obligor, to the extent of any direct, but not consequential, damages suffered by such LC Obligor that such LC Obligor proves were caused by (i) such LC Issuer’s willful misconduct or gross negligence in determining whether documents
presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or (ii) such LC Issuer’s willful failure to make lawful payment under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it of documentation strictly complying
with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, a LC Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation. 

Section 11.16 General Limitation of Liability. No claim may be made by any Credit Party, any Lender, the Global Agent, any LC Issuer or any
other Person against the Global Agent, any LC Issuer, or any other Lender or the Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, attorneys or agents of any of them for any damages other than actual compensatory damages in respect of any claim for breach
of contract or any other theory of liability arising out of or related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith; and each of the Borrowers,
each Lender, the Global Agent and each LC Issuer hereby, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, waives, releases and agrees not to sue or counterclaim upon any such claim for any special, consequential or punitive damages, whether or
not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor. 
 Section 11.17 No Duty. All attorneys, accountants,
appraisers, consultants and other professional persons (including the firms or other entities on behalf of which any such Person may act) retained by the Global Agent or any Lender with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents
shall have the right to act exclusively in the interest of the Global Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and shall have no duty of disclosure, duty of loyalty, duty of care, or other duty or obligation of any type or nature whatsoever to the
Company, to any of its Subsidiaries, or to any other Person, with respect to any matters within the scope of such representation or related to their activities in connection with such representation. Each Borrower agrees, on behalf of itself and its
Subsidiaries, not to assert any claim or counterclaim against any such persons with regard to such matters, all such claims and 

  

 118 

 
counterclaims, now existing or hereafter arising, whether known or unknown, foreseen or unforeseeable, being hereby waived, released and forever discharged.

 Section 11.18 Lenders and Agent Not Fiduciary to Borrowers, etc. The relationship among the Company and its Subsidiaries, on the
one hand, and the Global Agent, each LC Issuer and the Lenders, on the other hand, is solely that of debtor and creditor, and the Global Agent, each LC Issuer and the Lenders have no fiduciary or other special relationship with the Company and its
Subsidiaries, and no term or provision of any Loan Document, no course of dealing, no written or oral communication, or other action, shall be construed so as to deem such relationship to be other than that of debtor and creditor. 
 Section 11.19 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties herein shall survive the making of Loans and all LC
Issuances hereunder, the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Notes and the other documents the forms of which are attached as Exhibits hereto, the issue and delivery of the Notes, any disposition thereof by any holder thereof, and any
investigation made by the Global Agent or any Lender or any other holder of any of the Notes or on its behalf. All statements contained in any certificate or other document delivered to the Global Agent or any Lender or any holder of any Notes by or
on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant hereto or otherwise specifically for use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby shall constitute representations and warranties by the Borrowers hereunder, made as of the
respective dates specified therein or, if no date is specified, as of the respective dates furnished to the Global Agent or any Lender. 
 Section 11.20 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or
unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

 Section 11.21 Independence of Covenants. All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action,
event, condition or circumstance is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the limitations or restrictions of, another covenant, shall not avoid the occurrence of
a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or event, condition or circumstance exists. 
 Section 11.22 Interest Rate
Limitation. 
 (a) Maximum Rate. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to
any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts that are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively, the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”)
that may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof,
shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and
Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Base Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been
received by such Lender. 
 (b) Canadian Interest Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the
aggregate “interest” (as defined in section 347 of the Criminal Code, Revised Statutes of 

  

 119 

 
Canada, 1985, C. 46 as the same may be amended, replaced or re-enacted from time to time) payable under this Agreement with respect to the Canadian
Obligations exceed the effective annual rate of interest on the “credit advanced” (as defined in that section) under this Agreement lawfully permitted under that section and, if any payment, collection or demand pursuant to this Agreement
in respect of “interest” (as defined in that section) is determined to be contrary to the provisions of that section, such payment, collection or demand shall be deemed to have been made by mutual mistake of the applicable Canadian
Borrower and the Canadian Lenders and the amount of such payment or collection shall be refunded to such Canadian Borrower; for purposes of this Agreement the effective annual rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with generally
accepted actuarial practices and principles over the term of the applicable credit advanced on the basis of annual compounding of the lawfully permitted rate of interest and, in the event of dispute, a certificate of a Fellow of the Canadian
Institute of Actuaries appointed by the Global Agent will be conclusive for the purposes of such determination. The amount of the payment that is to be refunded will be determined by the Global Agent. 
 Section 11.23 Designated Senior Indebtedness. THE INDEBTEDNESS OF THE COMPANY EVIDENCED BY THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OF THE NOTES, ANY OF THE SECURITY
DOCUMENTS AND ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT IS AND SHALL AT ALL TIMES CONSTITUTE “DESIGNATED SENIOR INDEBTEDNESS” UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF THE 2001 SUBORDINATED CONVERTIBLE INDENTURE OR THE 2006 SUBORDINATED CONVERTIBLE INDENTURE. 
 Section 11.24 Judgment Currency. If the Global Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, obtains a judgment or judgments against any Borrower in a
Designated Foreign Currency, the obligations of such Borrower in respect of any sum adjudged to be due to the Global Agent or the Lenders hereunder or under the Notes (the “Judgment Amount”) shall be discharged only to the extent
that, on the Business Day following receipt by the Global Agent of the Judgment Amount in the Designated Foreign Currency, the Global Agent, in accordance with normal banking procedures, may purchase Dollars with the Judgment Amount in such
Designated Foreign Currency. If the amount of Dollars so purchased is less than the amount of Dollars that could have been purchased with the Judgment Amount on the date or dates the Judgment Amount (excluding the portion of the Judgment Amount
which has accrued as a result of the failure of such Borrower to pay the sum originally due hereunder or under the Notes when it was originally due hereunder or under the Notes) was originally due and owing (the “Original Due Date”)
to the Global Agent or the Lenders hereunder or under the Notes (the “Loss”), such Borrower agrees as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Global Agent or such Lender, as the case may be,
against the Loss, and if the amount of Dollars so purchased exceeds the amount of Dollars that could have been purchased with the Judgment Amount on the Original Due Date, the Global Agent or such Lender agrees to remit such excess to such Borrower.

 Section 11.25 2004 Credit Agreement. Upon execution of this Agreement by the parties hereto, satisfaction of all conditions set
forth in Section 4.01, and repayment in full of all Obligations (as defined in the 2004 Credit Agreement) other than unasserted indemnification obligations, the 2004 Credit Agreement and all Loan Documents (as defined in the 2004 Credit
Agreement) shall terminate (provided that any provisions relating to indemnification shall survive), all Liens granted in connection therewith shall terminate, and National City Bank and/or its counsel or other agents are hereby authorized to
terminate and release all UCC financing statements, mortgages, deeds of trust, filings in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office and Copyright Office and all other filings and recordings made in connection therewith. 
 Section 11.26 USA Patriot Act Notification. Each Lender and the Global Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the
Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act such Lender and the Global Agent are required to obtain, verify and record information 

  

 120 

 
that identifies each of the Borrowers, which information includes the name and address of each of the Borrowers and other information that will allow such
Lender or the Global Agent, as applicable, to identify each of the Borrowers in accordance with the USA Patriot Act.

material modification of the terms or provisions of any of its Accounts Receivable or Contracts, or grant any extension of time for the payment of any of its Accounts Receivable or Contracts, or compromise or settle the same for less than the full

dealings therewith. All billings and invoices issued by a Grantor with respect to its Accounts Receivable will be in compliance with, and conform to, the requirements of all applicable federal, state and local laws and any applicable laws of any
relevant foreign jurisdiction. If a Default Event shall have occurred and be continuing and the Collateral Agent so directs, each Grantor shall legend, in form and manner satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, its Accounts Receivable and Contracts,
as well as books, records and documents of such Grantor evidencing or pertaining thereto with an appropriate reference to the fact that such Accounts Receivable and Contracts have been assigned to the Collateral Agent and that the Collateral Agent
has a security interest therein. 
 Section 4.8. Schedules; Collateral Reports. 
 (a) Schedules. If any information contained in any Schedule to this Agreement shall become untrue or incorrect in any respect, or if any Grantor
acquires or disposes of any of the Collateral such that any Schedule to this Agreement is no longer accurate or complete, then on the date on which the Company is required to deliver to the Global Agent a Compliance Certificate under the Credit
Agreement (each a “Reporting Date”) immediately following the date on which such information becomes untrue or incorrect or after such acquisition or disposition occurs, such Grantor shall deliver to the Collateral Agent a new
Schedule or Schedules to this Agreement without the need for any amendment to this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.17, provided that the delivery of such new Schedule or Schedules to this Agreement after any applicable Reporting Date shall
not serve to cure, or constitute a waiver of, any Default Event that may have occurred as a result of such information becoming untrue, incorrect, inaccurate or incomplete in any material respect. 
 (b) Collateral Reports. Whenever requested to do so by the Collateral Agent, each Grantor will promptly, at its own sole cost and expense, deliver
to the Collateral Agent, in written hard copy form or, if available, on magnetic tape or other computer or machine readable form, as specified by the Collateral Agent, such listings, agings, descriptions, schedules and other reports with respect to
its Accounts Receivable, Inventory, Equipment and other Collateral as the Collateral Agent may reasonably instruct, all of the same to be in such scope, categories and detail as the Collateral Agent may have reasonably instructed and to be
accompanied by copies of invoices and other documentation as and to the extent reasonably instructed by the Collateral Agent. 
 Section 4.9.
Legal Status; Location of Inventory and Equipment. Each Grantor agrees that (a) it will not change its name, place of business or, if more than one, chief executive office, or its mailing address or organizational identification number, if it

value in excess of $125,000 at a location other than a location set forth on Schedule 3.5, in each case, unless (i) it shall have provided the Collateral Agent at least 30 days’ prior written notice thereof, and (ii) such action is
permitted pursuant to the Credit Agreement or has been consented to by the Collateral Agent. 
 Section 4.10. Inspections and
Verification. The Collateral Agent and such Persons as the Collateral Agent may designate shall have the right, at any Grantor’s own cost and expense, at any time or from time to time, on not less than two Business Day’s prior notice
to the Company (on behalf of any applicable Grantor), to inspect the Collateral of such Grantor, all books and records related thereto (and to make extracts and copies thereof) and the premises upon which any of such Collateral is located, to
discuss such Grantor’s affairs with the officers of such Grantor and its independent accountants, and to verify under reasonable procedures the validity, amount, quality, quantity, value, condition and status of, or any other matter relating
to, such Collateral, including, in the case of Accounts or other Collateral in the possession of any third Person, by contacting Account Debtors or the third Person possessing such Collateral (after not less than two days’ prior notice to the
applicable Grantor) for the purpose of making such verification, provided that, unless a Default Event has occurred and is continuing, Grantors shall not be required to pay for more than two such inspections in any calendar year. Any
procedures or actions taken, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Default Event, to verify Accounts by contacting Account Debtors, shall be effected by the Company’s independent accountants, acting at the direction of the Collateral
Agent, in such manner (consistent with their normal auditing procedures) so as not to reveal the identity of the Collateral Agent or the existence of the Security Interest to the Account Debtors. The Company will instruct its independent accountants
to undertake any such verification when and as requested by the Collateral Agent, but no more than twice in any calendar year, so long as no Default Event has occurred and is continuing. The results of any such verification by independent
accountants shall be reported by such independent accountants to both the Collateral Agent and the Company. The Collateral Agent shall have the absolute right to share any information it gains from any such inspection or verification or from
collateral reports furnished to it by a Grantor with the other Secured Creditors (it being understood that any such information shall be subject to the confidentiality provisions of the Credit Agreement or, with respect to the Senior Securities
Holders, a separate confidentiality agreement, in form and substance substantially similar to the confidentiality provisions of the Credit Agreement or otherwise satisfactory to the Company and the Senior Securities Holders). 
 Section 4.11. Condition of Collateral. Each Grantor will maintain (a) its Equipment in good condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted and (b) all
other tangible items of its Collateral, taken as an entirety, in such condition as is consistent with generally accepted business practices, ordinary wear and tear excepted. 
 Section 4.12. Insurance. Each Grantor will at all times keep its business and its Collateral insured in accordance with Section 6.03 of the Credit
Agreement. 
 Section 4.13. Proceeds of Casualty Insurance, Condemnation or Taking. 
 (a) All amounts recoverable under any policy of casualty insurance or any award for the condemnation or taking by any governmental authority of any
portion of the Collateral are hereby assigned to the Collateral Agent. 
 (b) Each Grantor will apply any such proceeds or amounts received
by it in the manner provided in the Credit Agreement, including, if required under the terms of the Credit Agreement, by paying over the same directly to the Collateral Agent. 
  

 - 18 - 

 (c) In the event any portion of the Collateral suffers a casualty loss or is involved in any proceeding
for condemnation or taking by any governmental authority, then, if a Default Event has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent is authorized and empowered, at its option, to participate in, control, direct, adjust, settle and/or compromise
any such loss or proceeding, to collect and receive the proceeds therefrom and, after deducting from such proceeds any expenses incurred by it in connection with the collection or handling thereof, to apply the net proceeds thereof to the
Obligations in accordance with Section 8.4. 
 (d) If any proceeds are received by the Collateral Agent as a result of a casualty,
condemnation or taking involving the Collateral and no Default Event has occurred and is continuing, then the Collateral Agent will promptly release such proceeds to the applicable Grantor, unless the Credit Agreement provides otherwise. 

Section 4.14. Protective Advances by the Collateral Agent. At its option, but without being obligated to do so, the Collateral Agent may, upon
prior notice to any applicable Grantor, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default Event, (a) pay and discharge past due taxes, assessments and governmental charges, at any time levied on or with respect to any of the Collateral of
such Grantor which such Grantor has failed to pay and discharge in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement or any of the other Secured Creditor Documents, (b) pay and discharge any claims of other creditors of such Grantor which are
secured by any Lien on any Collateral, other than a Permitted Lien, (c) pay for the maintenance, repair, restoration and preservation of the Collateral to the extent such Grantor fails to comply with its obligations in regard thereto under this
Agreement and the other Secured Creditor Documents or the Collateral Agent reasonably believes payment of the same is necessary or appropriate to avoid a material loss or material diminution in value of the Collateral, and/or (d) obtain and pay the
premiums on insurance for the Collateral which such Grantor fails to maintain in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement and the other Secured Creditor Documents, and each Grantor agrees to reimburse the Collateral Agent on demand for all
payments and expenses incurred by the Collateral Agent with respect to such Grantor or any of its Collateral pursuant to the foregoing authorization, provided, however, that nothing in this Section shall be construed as excusing any Grantor
from the performance of, or imposing any obligation on the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Creditor to cure or perform, any covenants or other agreements of any Grantor with respect to any of the foregoing matters as set forth herein or in any
of the other Loan Documents. 
 Section 4.15. Commercial Tort Claims. If any Grantor shall at any time hold or acquire a Commercial
Tort Claim, the recovery from which could reasonably be expected to exceed $250,000, such Grantor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent thereof in a writing signed by such Grantor, which sets forth the details thereof and grants to the
Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Creditors) a Lien thereon and on the Proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement, with such writing to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent.

Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Creditors.

local counsel as to the perfection of the security interest provided for therein. Each Grantor further agrees to take such actions as the Collateral Agent deems reasonably necessary or desirable to effect the foregoing and to permit the Collateral
Agent to exercise any of its rights and remedies hereunder in respect thereof or under such separate pledge agreement. 
 Section 6.2. No
Assumption of Liability, etc. 
 (a) The Security Interest granted by the Grantors herein is granted as security only and shall not
subject the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Creditor to, or in any way alter or modify, any obligation or liability of such Grantor with respect to or arising out of, any of the Pledged Collateral. 
 (b) Nothing herein shall be construed to make the Collateral Agent liable as a general partner or limited partner of any Pledged Entity or a shareholder
of any corporation, and the Collateral Agent by virtue of this Agreement or any actions taken as contemplated hereby (except as referred to in the following sentence) shall not have any of the duties, obligations or liabilities of a general partner
or limited partner of any Pledged Entity or a stockholder of any corporation. The parties hereto expressly agree that, unless the Collateral Agent shall become the absolute owner of an Equity Interest pursuant hereto, this Agreement shall not be
construed as creating a partnership or joint venture among the Collateral Agent and/or a Grantor or any other Person.

right to appoint one or more sub-agents for the purpose of retaining physical possession of the instruments and certificates evidencing any of the Pledged Collateral, which may be held (in the sole discretion of the Collateral Agent) in the name of
the relevant Grantor, endorsed or assigned in blank or in favor of the Collateral Agent or any nominee or nominees of the Collateral Agent or a sub-agent appointed by the Collateral Agent. 
 Section 6.5. Voting Rights. Unless and until a Default Event shall have occurred and be continuing, each Grantor shall be entitled to exercise all
voting rights attaching to any and all Pledged Collateral owned by it, and to give consents, waivers or ratifications in respect thereof, provided that no vote shall be cast or any consent, waiver or ratification given or any action taken
which would violate, result in the breach of any covenant contained in or be inconsistent with, any of the terms of this Agreement, any other Secured Creditor Document or any Designated Hedge Document, or which would have the effect of materially
impairing the position or interests of the Collateral Agent or any Secured Creditor therein. All such rights of such Grantor to vote and to give consents, waivers and ratifications shall cease in case a Default Event shall occur and be continuing.

 Section 6.6. Entitlement of Grantors to Cash Dividends and Distributions. A Grantor shall be entitled to receive all cash dividends
or distributions payable in respect of its Pledged Collateral, except as otherwise provided in this Article VI.

represent in whole or in part an extraordinary, liquidating or other distribution in return of capital; 
 (ii) all other or
additional stock, other securities, partnership interests, membership interests or property (other than cash to which a Grantor is entitled under Section 6.6) paid or distributed by way of dividend (including, without limitation, any payment in kind
dividend) or otherwise in respect of the Pledged Collateral; 
 (iii) all other or additional stock, other securities,
partnership interests, membership interests or property (including cash) paid or distributed in respect of the Pledged Collateral by way of stock-split, spin-off, split-up, reclassification, combination of shares or similar rearrangement; and

 (iv) all other or additional stock, other securities, partnership interests or membership interests that may be paid in
respect of the Pledged Collateral by reason of any consolidation, merger, exchange of stock, conveyance of assets, liquidation or similar corporate, partnership or limited liability company reorganization. 
 Section 6.8. Application of Dividends and Distributions. If no Default Event shall have occurred and be continuing at such time, the Collateral
Agent will, at the request of the Company (on 
  

 - 23 - 

 behalf of any applicable Grantor or Grantors), pay over to the Global Agent, for application to the payment or prepayment
of any of the Obligations, any cash held by it as Pledged Collateral which is attributable to dividends or distributions received by it and then held as part of the Collateral pursuant to this Article VI. If a Default Event shall have occurred and
be continuing, all dividends and distributions received by the Collateral Agent and then held by it pursuant to this Article VI as part of the Pledged Collateral will be applied as provided in Section 8.4. 
 Section 6.9. Turnover by Grantors. All dividends, distributions or other payments that are received by any Grantor contrary to the provisions of

received (with any necessary endorsement). 
 Section 6.10. Registration under 1933 Act, etc. If a Default Event shall have occurred
and be continuing and a Grantor shall have received from the Collateral Agent a written request or requests that such Grantor cause any registration, qualification or compliance under any Federal or state securities law or laws to be effected with
respect to all or any part of the Pledged Equity Interests of its Subsidiaries, such Grantor as soon as practicable and at its sole expense will use its best efforts to cause such registration to be effected (and be kept effective) and will use its
best efforts to cause such qualification and compliance to be effected (and be kept effective) as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of such stock, including, without limitation, registration under the
Securities Act of 1933, as then in effect (the “Securities Act”) (or any similar statute then in effect), appropriate qualifications under applicable blue sky or other state securities laws and appropriate compliance with any other
governmental requirements, provided that the Collateral Agent shall furnish to such Grantor such information regarding the Collateral Agent as such Grantor may request in writing and as shall be required in connection with any such
registration, qualification or compliance. The relevant Grantor will advise the Collateral Agent in writing as to the progress of each such registration, qualification or compliance and as to the completion thereof, will furnish to the Collateral
Agent such number of prospectuses, offering circulars and other documents incident thereto as the Collateral Agent from time to time may reasonably request, and will indemnify the Collateral Agent and all others participating in the distribution of
such Pledged Equity Interests against all claims, losses, damages or liabilities caused by any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained therein (or in any related registration statement, notification or the like)
or by any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein (or in any related registration statement, notification or the like) a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar
as the same may have been caused by an untrue statement or omission based upon information furnished in writing to such Grantor by the Collateral Agent expressly for use therein. 
 Section 6.11. Sale of Pledged Equity Interests in Connection with Enforcement. If at any time when the Collateral Agent shall determine to
exercise its right to sell all or any part of the Pledged Equity Interests pursuant to Section 8.1, and such Pledged Equity Interests or the part thereof to be sold shall not, for any reason whatsoever, be effectively registered under the Securities
Act, the Collateral Agent may, in its sole and absolute discretion and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law now or hereafter in effect, sell such Pledged Equity Interests or part thereof by private sale in such manner and under such
circumstances as the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable in order that such sale may legally be effected without such registration, provided that at least 10 days’ prior notice of the time and place of any such sale shall be
given to the relevant Grantor. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in any such event the Collateral Agent, in its sole and absolute discretion, (a) may proceed to make such private sale notwithstanding that a registration statement for
the purpose of registering such Pledged Equity Interests or part thereof shall have been filed under such Securities Act, (b) may approach and negotiate with a single possible purchaser to effect such sale and (c) may restrict such sale to a

  

 - 24 - 

 purchaser who will represent and agree that such purchaser is purchasing for its own account, for investment, and not
with a view to the distribution or sale of such Pledged Equity Interests or part thereof. In the event of any such sale, the Collateral Agent shall incur no responsibility or liability to any Grantor for selling all or any part of the Pledged Equity
Interests at a price which the Collateral Agent may in good faith deem reasonable under the circumstances, notwithstanding the possibility that a substantially higher price might be realized if the sale were deferred until the registration as
aforesaid.

Assurances. Upon request of the Collateral Agent whenever made, any Grantor shall promptly execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent such Collateral Assignment Agreements as the Collateral Agent shall request in connection with such
Grantor’s owned Intellectual Property. Each Grantor agrees that it will take such action, and deliver such documents or instruments, as the Collateral Agent shall request in connection with the preparation, filing or registration and
enforcement of any Collateral Assignment Agreement. 
 Section 7.3. Assignments. Each Grantor hereby agrees not to divest itself of
any material right under or with respect to any Intellectual Property or Permit material to its business other than in the ordinary course of business, or if, in its reasonable business judgment, maintenance of such Intellectual Property or Permit
is no longer desirable in the conduct of its business or as expressly permitted pursuant to the Credit Agreement absent prior written approval of the Collateral Agent. 
 Section 7.4. Infringements. Each Grantor agrees, promptly upon learning thereof, to notify the Collateral Agent in writing of the name and address of, and to furnish such pertinent information that may be
available with respect to, any party who may be infringing or otherwise violating any of such Grantor’s rights in and to any Intellectual Property that has a Material Adverse Effect (any such Intellectual Property, “Significant
Intellectual Property”), or with respect to any party claiming that such Grantor’s use of any Significant Intellectual Property violates any property right of that party, to the extent that such infringement or violation could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Grantor further agrees, unless otherwise directed by the Collateral Agent, diligently to prosecute any Person infringing any Significant Intellectual Property in a manner consistent with
its past practice and in the ordinary course of business. 
 Section 7.5. Trademarks. 
 (a) Preservation of Trademarks. Each Grantor agrees to use or license the use of its owned Trademarks in interstate commerce during the time in
which this Agreement is in effect, sufficiently to 
  

 - 25 - 

 preserve such Trademarks as trademarks or service marks registered under the laws of the United States, provided
that such Grantor shall not be obligated to preserve any Trademark in the event such Grantor determines, in its reasonable business judgment, that the preservation of such Trademark is no longer desirable in the conduct of its business. 

(b) Maintenance of Registration. Each Grantor shall, at its own expense, diligently process all documents required by the Trademark Act of
1946, 15 U.S.C. §§ 1051, et seq. to maintain trademark registrations with respect to Trademarks owned by it the failure of which to maintain could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, including but not limited
to, affidavits of use and applications for renewals of registration in the United States Patent and Trademark Office for all of its owned Trademarks pursuant to 15 U.S.C. §§ 1058(a), 1059 and 1065, and shall pay all fees and disbursements
in connection therewith, and shall not abandon any such filing of affidavit of use or any such application of renewal prior to the exhaustion of all administrative and judicial remedies without prior written consent of the Collateral Agent, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, except if, in such Grantor’s reasonable business judgment, such maintenance of such Trademark is no longer desirable in the conduct of its business. 
 (c) Future Registered Trademarks. If any Trademark registration issues hereafter to a Grantor as a result of any application now or hereafter
pending before the United States Patent and Trademark Office, then, in accordance with Section 4.8(a), such Grantor shall deliver to the Collateral Agent an updated Schedule 3.8, and a grant of security in such Trademark or to the Collateral
Agent, confirming the grant thereof hereunder, the form of such confirmatory grant to be substantially the same as the form hereof. 
 Section 7.6. Patents. 
 (a) Maintenance of Patents. At its own expense, each Grantor shall make timely payment of all
post-issuance fees required pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 41 to maintain in force rights under each Patent except if, in its reasonable judgment, such maintenance of such Patent is no longer desirable in the conduct of its business. 
 (b) Prosecution of Patent Applications. At its own expense, each Grantor shall diligently prosecute all applications for United States patents,
and shall not abandon any such application, except in favor of a continuation application based on such application, prior to exhaustion of all reasonable administrative and judicial remedies, absent written consent of the Collateral Agent, which
such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, provided that such Grantor shall not be obligated to prosecute any application in the event such Grantor determines, in its reasonable business judgment that the prosecuting of such
application is no longer necessary or desirable in the conduct of its business. 
 Section 7.7. Other Patents and Copyrights. If any
Grantor acquires title to a United States Patent or Copyright, or files an application for a United States Patent or Copyright, such Grantor shall deliver to the Collateral Agent an updated Schedule 3.8, in accordance with Section 4.8(a),
together with a copy of said Patent or Copyright or application, as the case may be, with a grant of security as to such Patent or Copyright, as the case may be, confirming the grant thereof hereunder, the form of such confirmatory grant to be
substantially the same as the form hereof. 
 Section 7.8. Remedies Relating to Intellectual Property. If a Default Event shall occur
and be continuing, the Collateral Agent may, by written notice to the relevant Grantor, take any or all of the following actions: (a) declare the entire right, title and interest of such Grantor in and to each of the owned Copyrights, Patents and
Trademarks, together with all trademark rights and rights of protection to the same, vested, in which event such rights, title and interest shall immediately vest, in the Collateral 
  

 - 26 - 

 Agent for the benefit of the Secured Creditors, in which case such Grantor agrees to execute an assignment in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, of all its rights, title and interest in and to the Copyrights, Patents and Trademarks to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Creditors; (b) take and practice or sell the
Copyrights or Patents and take and use or sell the Trademarks owned by such Grantor and the goodwill of such Grantor’s business symbolized by the Trademarks and the right to carry on the business and use the assets of the Grantor in connection
with which the Trademarks have been used; and (c) direct such Grantor to refrain, in which event such Grantor shall refrain, from using the Copyrights, Patents and Trademarks owned by such Grantor in any manner whatsoever, directly or indirectly,
and, if requested by the Collateral Agent, execute such other and further documents that the Collateral Agent may request to further confirm the foregoing and to transfer ownership of the Copyrights, Patents and Trademarks, and registrations, and
any pending trademark application, to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties. 
 ARTICLE VIII. 
 REMEDIES UPON OCCURRENCE OF EVENT OF DEFAULT 
 Section 8.1. Remedies Generally; Obtaining of the Collateral. Each Grantor agrees that, if a Default Event shall have occurred and be continuing, then and in every such case, subject to applicable law then in effect, the Collateral
Agent, in addition to any rights now or hereafter existing under applicable law, shall have all rights as a secured creditor under the UCC in all relevant jurisdictions and may exercise any or all of the following rights (all of which each Grantor
hereby agrees is commercially reasonable to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law now or hereafter in effect): 
 (a) personally,
or by agents’ attorneys or other authorized representatives, immediately take possession of the Collateral or any part thereof, from such Grantor or any other Person who then has possession of any part thereof with or without notice or process
of law, and for that purpose may enter upon such Grantor’s or such other Person’s premises where any of the Collateral is located and remove the same and use in connection with such removal any and all services, supplies, aids and other
facilities of such Grantor; 
 (b) instruct the obligor or obligors on any Account, agreement, instrument or other obligation (including,
without limitation, Account Debtors) constituting the Collateral to make any payment required by the terms of such Account, agreement, instrument or other obligation directly to the Collateral Agent and/or directly to a lockbox under the sole
dominion and control of the Collateral Agent or to the Collateral Concentration Account; 
 (c) sell, assign or otherwise liquidate, or
direct such Grantor to sell, assign or otherwise liquidate, any or all of the Collateral or any part thereof, and take possession of the proceeds of any such sale or liquidation; 
 (d) issue a “notice of exclusive control” with respect to any or all of the Controlled Deposit Accounts and issue instructions with respect
thereto; 
 (e) withdraw any or all monies, securities and/or instruments in the Collateral Concentration Account or any Collateral Account
for application to the Obligations in accordance with Section 8.4; 
 (f) pay and discharge taxes, Liens or claims on or against any of the
Collateral; 
 (g) pay, perform or satisfy, or cause to be paid, performed or satisfied, for the benefit of any Grantor, any of the
obligations, terms, covenants, provisions or conditions to be paid, observed, 
  

 - 27 - 

 performed or satisfied by such Grantor under any contract, agreement or instrument relating to its Collateral, all in
accordance with the terms, covenants, provisions and conditions thereof, as and to the extent that such Grantor fails or refuses to perform or satisfy the same; 
 (h) enter into any extension of, or any other agreement in any way relating to, any of the Collateral; 
 (i)
make any compromise or settlement the Collateral Agent deems desirable or necessary with respect to any of the Collateral; and/or 
 (j) take
possession of the Collateral or any part thereof, by directing such Grantor or any other Person in possession thereof in writing to deliver the same to the Collateral Agent at any place or places reasonably designated by the Collateral Agent, in
which event such Grantor shall at its own expense: 
 (i) forthwith cause the same to be moved to the place or places so
designated by the Collateral Agent and there delivered to the Collateral Agent, 
 (ii) store and keep any Collateral so
delivered to the Collateral Agent at such place or places pending further action by the Collateral Agent as provided in Section 8.2, and 
 (iii) while the Collateral shall be so stored and kept, provide such guards and maintenance services as shall be necessary to protect the same and to preserve and maintain them in substantially the same condition
prior to such action; 
 it being understood that such Grantor’s obligation so to deliver the Collateral is of the essence of this Agreement and that,
accordingly, upon application to a court of equity having jurisdiction, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to a decree requiring specific performance by such Grantor of said obligation. 
 Section 8.2. Disposition of the Collateral. Upon the occurrence and continuance of a Default Event, any Collateral repossessed by the Collateral
Agent under or pursuant to Section 8.1 and any other Collateral whether or not so repossessed by the Collateral Agent, may be sold, assigned, leased or otherwise disposed of under one or more contracts or as an entirety, and without the necessity of
gathering at the place of sale of the property to be sold, and in general in such manner, at such time or times, at such place or places and on such terms as the Collateral Agent may, in compliance with any mandatory requirements of applicable law,
determine to be commercially reasonable. Any of the Collateral may be sold, leased or otherwise disposed of, in the condition in which the same existed when taken by the Collateral Agent or after any overhaul or repair which the Collateral Agent
shall determine to be commercially reasonable. Except in the case of any Collateral that is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is a of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, (a) in the case of any such disposition which
shall be a private sale or other private proceedings permitted by such requirements, such sale shall be made upon not less than 10 days’ prior written notice to such Grantor specifying the time at which such disposition is to be made and the
intended sale price or other consideration therefor, and shall be subject, for the 10 days after the giving of such notice, to the right of the relevant Grantor or any nominee of the relevant Grantor to acquire the Collateral involved at a price or
for such other consideration at least equal to the intended sale price or other consideration so specified, and (b) in the case of any such disposition which shall be a public sale permitted by such requirements, such sale shall be made upon not
less than 10 days’ prior written notice to the relevant Grantor specifying the time and place of such sale and, in the absence of applicable requirements of law, shall be by public auction (which may, at the Collateral Agent’s sole option,
be subject to reserve), after publication of notice of such auction not less than 10 days prior thereto in two newspapers in general circulation in the city where such 
  

 - 28 - 

 Collateral is located. To the extent permitted by any such requirement of law, the Collateral Agent on behalf of the
Secured Creditors (or certain of them) may bid for and become the purchaser (by bidding in Obligations or otherwise) of the Collateral or any item thereof, offered for sale in accordance with this Section without accountability to the relevant
Grantor (except to the extent of surplus money received as provided in Section 8.4). Unless so obligated under mandatory requirements of applicable law, the Collateral Agent shall not be required to make disposition of the Collateral within a period
of time which does not permit the giving of notice to the relevant Grantor as hereinabove specified. The Collateral Agent need give the relevant Grantor only such notice of disposition as the Collateral Agent shall deem to be reasonably practicable
in view of such mandatory requirements of applicable law. 
 Section 8.3. Waiver of Claims. Except as otherwise provided in this
Agreement, EACH GRANTOR HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, NOTICE AND JUDICIAL HEARING IN CONNECTION WITH THE COLLATERAL AGENT’S TAKING POSSESSION OR THE COLLATERAL AGENT’S DISPOSITION OF ANY OF THE COLLATERAL,
INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY AND ALL PRIOR NOTICE AND HEARING FOR ANY PREJUDGMENT REMEDY OR REMEDIES AND ANY SUCH RIGHT WHICH THE GRANTOR WOULD OTHERWISE HAVE UNDER THE CONSTITUTION OR ANY STATUTE OF THE UNITED STATES OR OF ANY STATE, and each
Grantor hereby further waives, to the extent permitted by law: (i) all damages occasioned by such taking of possession except any damages which are the direct result of the Collateral Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct; (ii) all
other requirements as to the time, place and terms of sale or other requirements with respect to the enforcement of the Collateral Agent’s rights hereunder; and (iii) all rights of redemption, appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or
moratorium now or hereafter in force under any applicable law in order to prevent or delay the enforcement of this Agreement or the absolute sale of the Collateral or any portion thereof, and each Grantor, for itself and all who may claim under it,
insofar as it or they now or hereafter lawfully may, hereby waives the benefit of all such laws to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law now or hereafter in effect. Any sale of, or the grant of options to purchase, or any other realization
upon, any Collateral shall operate to divest all right, title, interest, claim and demand, either at law or in equity, of the relevant Grantor therein and thereto, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against the relevant Grantor
and against any and all Persons claiming or attempting to claim the Collateral so sold, optioned or realized upon, or any part thereof, from, through and under the relevant Grantor. 
 Section 8.4. Application of Proceeds. All Collateral and proceeds of Collateral obtained and realized by the Collateral Agent in connection with
the enforcement of this Agreement pursuant to this Article 8 shall be applied as follows: 
 (a) first, to the payment of any Administrative
Obligations, including, but not limited to, the costs and expenses of the Collateral Agent in connection with any sale, collection or other realization incurred by the Collateral Agent under the provisions of this Agreement, or any other fees
(including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, accountants’ fees and other fees for special advisors or consultants retained by the Collateral Agent), expenses, liabilities (including, without limitation, rights to
indemnification) or advances made or incurred by the Collateral Agent in connection with the administration or enforcement of the Secured Creditor Documents; 
 (b) second, to each Secured Creditor in an amount equal to the Secured Creditor Pro Rata Share in respect of such Secured Creditor until all of the Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full, which
application, in the case of the Lenders, shall be applied to the Obligations owing to such Lenders in the manner provided in Section 8.03 of the Credit Agreement; and 
  

 - 29 - 

 (c) third, to the extent remaining after the application pursuant to the preceding clause (b) and
following the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.10, to the relevant Grantor or to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive such payment. 
 Section 8.5. Remedies Cumulative, etc. Each and every right, power and remedy hereby specifically given to the Collateral Agent shall be in addition to every other right, power and remedy specifically given
under this Agreement, any Designated Hedge Agreement or the other Secured Creditor Documents or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity, or by statute and each and every right, power and remedy whether specifically herein given or otherwise
existing may be exercised from time to time or simultaneously and as often and in such order as may be deemed expedient by the Collateral Agent. All such rights, powers and remedies shall be cumulative and the exercise or the beginning of exercise
of one shall not be deemed a waiver of the right to exercise of any other or others. No delay or omission of the Collateral Agent in the exercise of any such right, power or remedy, or partial or single exercise thereof, and no renewal or extension
of any of the Obligations, shall impair or constitute a waiver of any such right, power or remedy or shall be construed to be a waiver of any Default or Default Event or an acquiescence therein. No notice to or demand on any Grantor in any case
shall entitle it to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of any of the rights of the Collateral Agent to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. In the
event that the Collateral Agent shall bring any suit to enforce any of its rights hereunder and shall be entitled to judgment, then in such suit the Collateral Agent may recover reasonable expenses, including attorneys’ fees, and the amounts
thereof shall be included in such judgment. 
 Section 8.6. Discontinuance of Proceedings. In case the Collateral Agent shall have
instituted any proceeding to enforce any right, power or remedy under this Agreement by foreclosure, sale, entry or otherwise, and such proceeding shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to
the Collateral Agent, then and in every such case the relevant Grantor, the Collateral Agent and each holder of any of the Obligations shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the Collateral subject to the
security interest created under this Agreement, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Collateral Agent shall continue as if no such proceeding had been instituted. 
 Section 8.7. Purchasers of Collateral. Upon any sale of any of the Collateral by the Collateral Agent hereunder (whether by virtue of the power of sale herein granted, pursuant to judicial process or
otherwise), the receipt of the Collateral Agent or the officer making the sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers of the Collateral so sold, and such purchaser or purchasers shall not be obligated to see to the
application of any part of the purchase money paid over to the Collateral Agent or such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication or nonapplication thereof. 
 ARTICLE IX. 
 INTERCREDITOR PROVISIONS 
 Section 9.1. Obligations to be Ratably Secured. In order to comply with the provisions of Section 1008 of the Senior Indenture, the Grantors, the
Collateral Agent and the Secured Creditors agree that until the Senior Indenture Collateral Condition ceases to exist all of the Obligations shall be secured equally and ratably pursuant to the provisions of this Article IX. In the event that the
Senior Securities Holders (or any trustee or designee acting on behalf of the Senior Securities Holders) shall request the Global Agent, the Lenders, and the Collateral Agent to enter into a separate intercreditor agreement with respect to the
Collateral at any time prior to the date on which the Senior Indenture Collateral Condition ceases to exist, then the Grantors and the Collateral Agent, acting on behalf of the Lenders and the Collateral Agent shall enter into an intercreditor
agreement (containing terms and conditions substantially similar to those set forth in this Article IX) with the Senior Securities Holders (or any trustee or designee acting on their behalf) to facilitate the terms and conditions of this Article IX.

Agreement or, in the case of any Lender, by such Lender becoming a party to the Credit Agreement, each Secured Creditor hereby appoints National City Bank (together with its successors and assigns) as the Collateral Agent under this Agreement and
each other Collateral Document, with such powers as are specifically delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Collateral Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto in order
to carry out the intent of this Agreement and the other Collateral Documents in the opinion of the Collateral Agent, and National City Bank hereby accepts such appointment as the Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the other Collateral
Documents. Neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its directors, officers, attorneys or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or in connection herewith, except for its or their own gross
negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. 
 Section 9.3. Secured Creditor Pro Rata
Distribution of the Collateral. The Collateral Agent shall be the secured party, beneficiary or mortgagee, as applicable, under the Collateral Documents. The Collateral shall be held for the benefit of the Secured Creditors on a pari passu
basis and shall serve as security for the Obligations. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall receive, hold, administer and enforce the Collateral Documents, and foreclose upon, collect, dispose of all or any part of
the Collateral, for the benefit of the respective Secured Creditors based upon the Secured Creditor Pro Rata Share of each such Secured Creditor, and deliver to the Secured Creditors, the proceeds therefrom for the benefit of the respective Secured
Creditors, based upon the Secured Creditor Pro Rata Share of each respective Secured Creditor, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Each Secured Creditor agrees that any security interest or Lien granted to any Secured Creditor with
respect to the Collateral, or any part thereof, whether granted prior to, or on or after, the date of this Agreement, shall be deemed to be held by such Secured Creditor for the benefit of the Secured Creditors pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement. Each Secured Creditor further agrees that, notwithstanding the relative priority or time of granting, creation, attachment or perfection under applicable law of any security interest or Lien, if any, of the Collateral Agent or any Secured
Creditor, whether such security interest or Lien shall arise now or hereafter be acquired, such security interest or Lien shall be a first priority security interest or Lien in favor of the Collateral Agent to secure the Obligations on a pari
passu basis for the benefit of the respective Secured Creditors in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. 
 Section 9.4.
Payments or Proceeds Received by a Secured Creditor Prior to a Sharing Event. Prior to the occurrence of a Sharing Event, the Secured Creditors agree that any Secured Creditor may accept and apply payments made from any source (including
proceeds of the Collateral) on or in respect of the Obligations owing to such Secured Creditor without any responsibility to turn over to the Collateral Agent or share with any other Secured Creditor such payments, except as otherwise specifically
provided in the Credit Agreement with respect to sharing among the Lenders. 
 Section 9.5. Payments or Proceeds Received by the
Collateral Agent Prior to a Sharing Event. If the Collateral Agent (in its capacity as the Collateral Agent and not in any other capacity) shall receive any payments from any source (including proceeds of the Collateral) on or in respect of the
Obligations at any time prior to the occurrence of a Sharing Event, such payment or proceeds shall be delivered to the appropriate Secured Creditor or, so long as no Default Event shall exist, to the appropriate Grantor, as the case may be. If a
Default Event shall have occurred, the Collateral Agent shall not deliver the proceeds of any of the Collateral to any Grantor unless the Required Lenders so direct. 
  

 - 31 - 

 Section 9.6. Payments or Proceeds Received After a Sharing Event. After the occurrence of a
Sharing Event, (a) any payment received (whether from the proceeds of the Collateral or otherwise) from any Grantor by any Secured Creditor shall be immediately forwarded to the Collateral Agent to be distributed in accordance with the provisions of
Section 9.7, and (b) any payment received (whether from the proceeds of the Collateral or otherwise) by the Collateral Agent shall be distributed in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.7. 
 Section 9.7. Distribution of Proceeds. Except as set forth in Section 9.6, any proceeds received by the Collateral Agent at any time shall be
applied by the Collateral Agent in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.4. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any amounts to be distributed for application to a Secured Creditor’s liabilities with respect to any issued but undrawn (or
unpaid) Letter of Credit shall be held by the Collateral Agent in an interest bearing trust account (the “Collateral Trust Account”) as collateral security for such liabilities until a drawing on such Letter of Credit, at which time
such amounts, together with interest accrued thereon, shall be released by the Collateral Agent and applied to such liabilities. If any such Letter of Credit shall expire without having been drawn upon (or paid) in full, the amounts held in the
Collateral Trust Account with respect to the undrawn (or unpaid) portion of such Letter of Credit, together with interest accrued thereon, shall be applied by the Collateral Agent in accordance with this Section 9.7. 
 Section 9.8. Delivery of the Collateral to the Collateral Agent. If any Secured Creditor receives possession of any portion of the Collateral, or
any proceeds thereof, whether prior to or after the occurrence of a Sharing Event, such Secured Creditor shall receive and hold the same in trust for the Collateral Agent and shall deliver such Collateral or proceeds thereof to the Collateral Agent,
wherein the Collateral Agent shall hold or dispose of such Collateral in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. 
 Section 9.9.
Return of Payments. If any payment or other proceeds received by any Secured Creditor shall be required to be repaid or returned, in whole or in part, by such Secured Creditor to the payor thereof, or to any trustee, agent or other
representative, or such payment shall be otherwise rescinded, in whole or in part, pursuant to applicable law, each other Secured Creditor that shall have received all or any part of such payment or proceeds shall promptly, upon written demand,
return all or the ratable part, as the case may be, of the portion of such payment or proceeds so received by such other Secured Creditor (and any interest thereon to the extent the same is required to be paid by the Secured Creditor originally
receiving such payment or proceeds in respect of the return of such payment or proceeds thereof) in order to equitably adjust for the return of all or part of such payment or proceeds. 
 Section 9.10. Secured Creditor Rights and Remedies. 
 (a) Except as set forth in subpart (c) below, each Secured Creditor shall have the rights and remedies available to it under its respective Secured Creditor Documents, other than rights specifically reserved for the
Collateral Agent under any of the other Collateral Documents, upon the occurrence of a Default Event or otherwise, including, but not limited to, the right to (i) accelerate any of the Obligations owing to such Secured Creditor, (ii) institute suit
against any Grantor, and (iii) take any other enforcement action with respect to any Default Event; provided, however, that each Secured Creditor agrees that it shall have recourse under or by virtue of the Collateral Documents to the
Collateral only through the Collateral Agent and that no Secured Creditor shall have any independent recourse to the liens and security interests created by the Collateral Documents or otherwise, except that any Secured Creditor may set-off any
amount of any balances held by it for the account of any Grantor or any other property held or owing by such Secured Creditor to or for the credit or the account of any Grantor (provided that the amount set-off shall be delivered to the Collateral
Agent for application pursuant the terms of this Agreement). 
  

 - 32 - 

 (b) Upon the occurrence of a Sharing Event, the appropriate Secured Creditor shall promptly, and in any
event within one Business Day thereafter, provide notice to the Collateral Agent of the occurrence of such Sharing Event and, upon receipt of such notice, the Collateral Agent shall promptly, and in any event within one Business Day of receipt
thereof, deliver a copy to all of the Secured Creditors; provided, however, that the failure to provide any of the foregoing notices shall not affect, in any way, any of the rights or obligations of any Person under this Agreement.

 (c) Upon receipt of a notice of a Sharing Event and at all times thereafter, no Secured Creditor (other than the Collateral Agent) shall
institute suit against any Grantor or otherwise take any other enforcement action with respect to the Collateral. 
 (d) By accepting any
proceeds of the Collateral pursuant to this Agreement or the benefits of any Security Document, a Secured Creditor shall be deemed to be bound by the terms and conditions set forth herein. 
 Section 9.11. Rights and Remedies of the Collateral Agent Upon Sharing Event. Upon the occurrence of a Sharing Event, the Required Lenders may
notify and direct the Collateral Agent to enforce the rights of the Secured Creditors in and to the Collateral through such remedies as may be available pursuant to the terms and conditions of any Collateral Document, at law or in equity, or
otherwise. The Collateral Agent shall act as the Required Lenders may, in their sole discretion, direct, provided that the Collateral Agent shall have no liability for acting in accordance with such request and no Secured Creditor shall have
any liability to any other Secured Creditor in connection with any such request. The Collateral Agent shall not release any Liens or Collateral without the direction or consent of the Required Lenders, except as expressly permitted pursuant to
Section 9.14. 
 Section 9.12. Appointment of Power of Attorney. Each Secured Creditor irrevocably authorizes, appoints, and empowers
the Collateral Agent to act as such Secured Creditor’s attorney-in-fact with respect to the Collateral, or any part thereof, or under or with respect to any of the Collateral Documents, as the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable
for the enforcement of the provisions of this Agreement or the other Collateral Documents, or to otherwise carry out the intent of the provisions of this Agreement. Each Secured Creditor shall execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent such powers
of attorney, assignments, or other instruments as may be requested by the Collateral Agent to enable the Collateral Agent to enforce any and all of the Collateral Agent’s rights or duties under this Agreement and the other Collateral Documents.

 Section 9.13. Obligations Unaffected; Modification of Secured Creditor Documents. Except for the agreements set forth herein, the
other Secured Creditor Documents shall be unaffected hereby. Each Secured Creditor shall be entitled to amend, restate or otherwise modify any of their respective Secured Creditor Documents in accordance with the respective terms of such Secured
Creditor Documents; provided, however, that in the event that any Secured Creditor shall receive any additional Collateral or other security for any of their respective Obligations or file any additional financing statement, mortgage or other
lien with respect thereto, such collateral or other security shall become part of the Collateral hereunder and shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Creditors, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 
 Section 9.14. Release of Collateral. Each Secured Creditor hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to execute and deliver such releases and
termination statements as may be necessary to permit the release of any Collateral in accordance with Section 10.9. 
 Section 9.15.
Accounting. Each Secured Creditor agrees to render to the Collateral Agent, at any time upon request of the Collateral Agent, an accounting of the amounts of the Obligations owing to 
  

 - 33 - 

 such Secured Creditor and such other information with respect to the Obligations owing to such Secured Creditor as the
Collateral Agent may reasonably request in order to give effect to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 
 Section 9.16. Contesting
Liens or Security Interests. No Secured Creditor shall contest the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of any Lien or security interest granted to the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Creditor (provided that such Lien or
security interest shall be held for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Creditors and shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement). 
 Section 9.17. Actions by the Collateral Agent. Each Secured Creditor acknowledges that (a) such Secured Creditor has performed and shall continue to perform its own credit analysis of the Grantors, and its own
investigations of the risks involved in the transactions contemplated in connection with the Obligations and in entering into this Agreement and the other Secured Creditor Documents, (b) such Secured Creditor has reviewed and approved the form and
substance of each of the Secured Creditor Documents, including any U.C.C. financing statements filed in connection with any of the Secured Creditor Documents, and (c) the Collateral Agent, by executing this Agreement, has not nor at any time shall
the Collateral Agent be deemed to have, made any representation or warranty, express or implied, with respect to (i) the due execution, authenticity, legality, accuracy, completeness, validity or enforceability of any of the Collateral Documents or
as to the financial condition or creditworthiness of Company or any other Grantor, or the collectability of the Obligations, or (ii) the validity, perfection, priority, enforceability, value or sufficiency of, or title to any of the Collateral, or
the filing or recording, or taking of any other action with respect to the Collateral. Although the Collateral Agent shall endeavor to exercise the same care in administering the Collateral as if the Collateral Agent were acting for its own account,
the Collateral Agent shall be fully protected in relying upon any document that appears to it to be genuine and upon the advice of legal counsel, independent accountants and other appropriate experts (including those retained by any Grantor).
Neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its affiliates, directors, officers, attorneys or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or in connection herewith, except for its or their own gross
negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. 
 Section 9.18. Bankruptcy Filing. The
provisions of this Article IX shall be applicable both before and after the filing of any petition by or against the Company or any other Grantor under the Bankruptcy Code or, if applicable, under the laws of any foreign jurisdiction, and all
references in this Agreement to the Company or any other Grantor shall be deemed to apply to the Company or such Grantor as debtor-in-possession. All postpetition distributions of the proceeds of any of the Collateral shall, subject to any court
order approving the financing of the Company or any other Grantor as debtor-in-possession, continue to be made after the filing of any such petition on the same basis that the Collateral was to be distributed prior to the date of such petition
(i.e., this Article IX shall not limit any Secured Creditor’s right to provide postpetition financing, or any Secured Creditor’s right to object to any such financing, in accordance with Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code and any
such financing, and any liens or security interests granted in connection with such financing, shall be on such terms and conditions as approved by the Bankruptcy Court). 
 Section 9.19. Indemnification by Secured Creditors. To the extent not indemnified or reimbursed by the Grantors, the Secured Creditors agree to indemnify the Collateral Agent, on the basis of the Secured
Creditor Pro Rata Shares, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted
against the Collateral Agent in its capacity as collateral agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Collateral Document or any action taken or omitted by the Collateral Agent with respect to this Agreement or any
other 
  

 - 34 - 

 Secured Creditor Document, provided that no Secured Creditor shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including attorneys’ fees) or disbursements resulting from the Collateral Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction, or from any action taken or omitted by the Collateral Agent in any capacity other than as collateral agent under this Agreement. 
 Section 9.20. Right to Opt Out. Any Secured Creditor (a “Disclaiming Creditor”) shall be entitled to opt out of the sharing provisions of this Article IX by giving written notice to the
Collateral Agent and each other Secured Creditor. Effective upon receipt by the Collateral Agent of such notice from any Disclaiming Creditor, such Disclaiming Creditor (a) shall have no interest in any of the Collateral, nor shall such Disclaiming
Creditor be entitled to its Secured Creditor Pro Rata Share of the proceeds of any of the Collateral, and (b) shall not be liable for any indemnification obligations with respect to the Collateral Agent or any of the Collateral, except with respect
to any such obligations that relate to claims arising or occurring prior to the date such Secured Creditor shall have become a Disclaiming Creditor under this Section 9.20. 
 Section 9.21. Third Parties. The provisions of this Article IX shall be solely for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Creditors
and are not intended to grant any rights, benefits or defenses to or for the benefit of the Company, any other Grantor or any other Person. No Grantor shall have any rights under this Article IX. 
 Section 9.22. Successor Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent may resign as collateral agent hereunder by giving not less than 30 days’
prior written notice to the Global Agent and the Lenders. If the Collateral Agent shall resign under this Agreement, then either (a) the Required Lenders shall appoint a successor collateral agent hereunder, or (b) if a successor collateral agent
shall not have been so appointed and approved within the 30 day period following the Collateral Agent’s notice to the Global Agent and the Lenders of its resignation, then the Collateral Agent shall appoint a successor collateral agent that
shall serve as collateral agent until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor collateral agent. Upon its appointment, such successor collateral agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties as collateral agent, and the term
“Collateral Agent” under this Agreement and any other Security Document shall mean such successor, effective upon its appointment, and the former collateral agent’s rights, powers and duties as collateral agent shall be terminated
without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former collateral agent or any of the parties to this Agreement.

only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Agreement. 
  

 - 36 -

in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not

GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
 Section 10.8. Enforcement Expenses, etc. The
Grantors hereby jointly and severally agree to pay, to the extent not paid pursuant to Section 11.01 of the Credit Agreement, all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Collateral Agent and each other Secured Creditor in connection with
the enforcement of this Agreement, the preservation of the Collateral, the perfection of the Security Interest, and any amendment, waiver or consent relating hereto (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel
employed by the Collateral Agent or any of the other Secured Creditors). 
 Section 10.9. Release of Portions of Collateral.

 (a) So long as no Default Event is in existence or would exist after the application of proceeds as provided below, the Collateral Agent
shall, at the request of a Grantor, release any or all of the Collateral of such Grantor, provided that (x) such release is permitted by the terms of the Credit Agreement (it being agreed for such purposes that a release will be deemed
“permitted by the terms of the Credit Agreement” if (i) the proposed transaction constitutes an exception contained in Section 7.02 of the Credit Agreement or (ii) such release is permitted by and made in accordance with Section 2.20 of
the Credit Agreement) or otherwise has been approved in writing by the Required Lenders (or, to the extent required by Section 11.11 of the Credit Agreement, all of the Lenders, or all of the Lenders (other than any Defaulting Lender), as
applicable) and (y) the proceeds of such Collateral, to the extent there are any such proceeds, are to be applied as required pursuant to Article IX of this Agreement or any consent or waiver entered into with respect thereto. 
 (b) At any time that a Grantor desires that the Collateral Agent take any action to give effect to any release of Collateral pursuant to the foregoing
Section 10.9(a), it shall deliver to the Collateral Agent a certificate signed by a principal executive officer stating that the release of the respective Collateral is permitted pursuant to Section 10.9(a). In the event that any part of the
Collateral is released as provided in Section 10.9(a), the Collateral Agent, at the request and expense of the applicable Grantor, will duly release such Collateral and assign, transfer and deliver to such Grantor (without recourse and without any
representation or warranty) such of the Collateral as is then being (or has been) so sold and as may be in the possession of the Collateral Agent and has not theretofore been released pursuant to this Agreement. The Collateral Agent shall have no
liability whatsoever to any Secured Creditor as the result of any release of Collateral by it as permitted by this Section 10.9. 
 Section
10.10. Termination. This Agreement shall terminate upon the earlier to occur of (a) the Collateral Release Date, as defined in the Credit Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.20 of the Credit Agreement, and (b) the date upon which (i) the
Commitments, the Credit Agreement, all other Loan Documents and all Designated Hedge Documents have been terminated, (ii) no Note or Letter of Credit is outstanding, and (iii) all Loans and other Obligations, as defined in the Credit Agreement
(other than unasserted indemnity obligations), owing to the Lenders have been indefeasibly paid in full, notwithstanding that any Senior Indenture Obligations remain outstanding. Upon such termination, the Collateral Agent, at the request and
expense of the Grantors, will execute and deliver to the relevant Grantor a proper instrument or instruments (including UCC termination statements on form UCC-3) acknowledging the satisfaction and termination of this Agreement, and will duly assign,
transfer and 
  

 - 37 - 

 deliver to the relevant Grantor (without recourse and without any representation or warranty) such of the Collateral as
may be in the possession of the Collateral Agent and as has not theretofore been sold or otherwise applied or released pursuant to this Agreement.

all the rights, powers, privileges and authority so created, shall not at any time or in any event obligate the Collateral Agent to appear in or defend any action or proceeding relating to the Collateral to which it is not a party, or to take any
action hereunder or thereunder, or to expend any money or incur any expenses or perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability under the Collateral. By accepting the benefits of this Agreement, each Secured Creditor acknowledges and agrees
that the rights and obligations of the Collateral Agent shall be as set forth in Article IX. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 10.3 of this Agreement or Section 11.11 of the Credit Agreement, this Section 10.11, and the
duties and obligations of the Collateral Agent set forth in this Section 10.11, may not be amended or modified without the consent of the Collateral Agent. 
 Section 10.12. Only Collateral Agent to Enforce on Behalf of Secured Creditors. The Secured Creditors agree by their acceptance of the benefits hereof that this Agreement may be enforced on their behalf only by
the action of the Collateral Agent, acting upon the instructions of the Required Lenders (or, after all Obligations, as defined in the Credit Agreement, have been paid in full, instructions of the holders of at least 51% of the outstanding
Designated Hedge Obligations) and that no other Secured Creditor shall have any right individually to seek to enforce or to enforce this Agreement or to realize upon the security to be granted hereby, it being understood and agreed that such rights
and remedies may be exercised by the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Creditors, upon the terms of this Agreement. 
 Section
10.13. Other Creditors, etc. Not Third Party Beneficiaries. No creditor of any Grantor or any of its Affiliates, or other Person claiming by, through or under any Grantor or any of its Affiliates, other than the Collateral Agent and the other
Secured Creditors, and their respective successors and assigns, shall be a beneficiary or third party beneficiary of this Agreement or otherwise shall derive any right or benefit herefrom. 
 Section 10.14. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto on separate
counterparts, including via facsimile transmission or other electronic transmission capable of authentication, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same agreement.
A set of counterparts executed by all the parties hereto shall be lodged with the Company and the Collateral Agent. 
 Section 10.15.
Additional Grantors. Additional Grantors may become a party to this Agreement by execution of a Security Agreement Joinder. 
 Section
10.16. Effectiveness. This Agreement shall be effective as to any Grantor upon its execution and delivery to the Collateral Agent of a counterpart of this Agreement manually executed on behalf of such Grantor, regardless of the date of this
Agreement or the date this Agreement is executed and delivered by any other party hereto. 
 Section 10.17. Amendments and Waivers.
Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be changed, waived, modified or varied in any manner whatsoever unless in writing duly signed by (a) the Collateral Agent and (b) the Grantor or Grantors with respect to which such change, waiver,
modification or variance is to apply, subject to any consent required in accordance with Section 11.11 of the Credit Agreement.

 Section 10.18. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH GRANTOR HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY
JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO OR ANY OF THEM WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED
THERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER FOUNDED IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE; AND EACH GRANTOR HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL
WITHOUT A JURY, AND THAT ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION 10.18 WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE SIGNATORIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.
