such Loan Notice, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month.

the applicable Loans, and if no timely notice of a conversion or continuation is provided by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the details of any automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans described in the preceding
subsection. In the case of a Borrowing, each Lender shall make the amount of its Loan available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day

received available to the Borrower in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent either by (i) crediting the account of the Borrower on the books of Wells Fargo Bank with the amount of such funds or (ii) wire transfer of such
funds, in each case in accordance with instructions provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) the Administrative Agent by the Borrower; provided, however, that if, on the date the Loan Notice with respect to such Borrowing is given by
the Borrower, there are L/C Borrowings or Swing Line Loans outstanding, then the proceeds of such Borrowing, first shall be applied to the payment in full of any such L/C Borrowings or Swing Line Loans, and second, shall be made available to the
Borrower as provided above. 
 (c) Except as otherwise provided herein, a Eurodollar Rate Loan may be continued or converted only
on the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurodollar Rate Loan. During the existence of a Default, no Loans may be requested as, converted to or continued as Eurodollar Rate Loans without the consent of the Required Lenders. 

(d) After giving effect to all Borrowings, all conversions of Loans from one Type to the other, and all continuations of Loans as the same
Type, there shall not be more than ten Interest Periods in effect with respect to Loans. 
 2.03 Letters of Credit.

 (a) The Letter of Credit Commitments. 

(i) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (A) each L/C Issuer agrees, in reliance upon the agreements
of the other Lenders set forth in this Section 2.03, (1) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date until the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, to issue Letters of Credit in Dollars for the account of
any Loan Party, Subsidiary or Joint Venture, and to amend or extend Letters of Credit previously issued by it, in accordance with subsection (b) below, and (2) to honor drawings under the Letters of Credit; and (B) the Lenders
severally agree to participate in Letters of Credit issued for the account of any 

  
 34 

 
Loan Party, Subsidiary or Joint Venture and any drawings thereunder; provided that after giving effect to any L/C Credit Extension with respect to any Letter of Credit, (x) the Total
Outstandings shall not exceed the Aggregate Commitments, (y) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Loans of any Lender, plus such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line Loans, plus such Lender’s Pro Rata
Share of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations shall not exceed such Lender’s Commitment, and (z) the Outstanding Amount of the L/C Obligations shall not exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit. Each request by the Borrower for the
issuance or amendment of a Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be a representation by the Borrower that the L/C Credit Extension so requested complies with the conditions set forth in the proviso to the preceding sentence. Within the foregoing
limits, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower’s ability to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and accordingly the Borrower may, during the foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of
Credit that have expired or that have been drawn upon and reimbursed. The obligations of the L/C Issuers under this Agreement are several and not joint. No L/C Issuer shall be responsible for any actions or any failure to act by or on the part of
any other L/C Issuer. 
 (ii) A L/C Issuer shall not issue any Letter of Credit, if: 

(A) subject to Section 2.03(b)(iii), the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur more than
twelve months after the date of issuance or last extension, unless the Required Lenders have approved such expiry date; or 
 (B) the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, unless all the Lenders have approved such expiry date. 

(iii) A L/C Issuer shall not be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if the L/C Obligations with respect to
Letters of Credit issued by it would exceed, after giving effect to the requested Letter of Credit, such L/C Issuer’s L/C Commitment, or if: 
 (A) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such L/C Issuer from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Law applicable to
such L/C Issuer or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such L/C Issuer shall prohibit, or request that such L/C Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of
credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such L/C Issuer with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such L/C Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not
in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon such L/C Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which such L/C Issuer in good faith deems material to it; 

(B) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate any Laws or one or more policies of such L/C Issuer; 

(C) except as otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and such L/C Issuer, such Letter of Credit is in an initial
face amount less than $500,000; 
 (D) such Letter of Credit is to be denominated in a currency other than
Dollars; 

  
 35 

 (E) such Letter of Credit contains any provisions for automatic
reinstatement of the stated amount after any drawing thereunder; or 
 (F) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender,
unless the Fronting Exposure of such L/C Issuer with respect to such Defaulting Lender (after giving effect to any reallocation pursuant to Section 2.15(d)) has been Cash Collateralized in an amount not less than the Minimum Collateral
Amount. 
 (iv) A L/C Issuer shall not amend any Letter of Credit if such L/C Issuer would not be permitted at
such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof. 
 (v) Such L/C Issuer shall
be under no obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if (A) such L/C Issuer would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (B) the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit
does not accept the proposed amendment to such Letter of Credit. 
 (b) Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of
Credit; Auto-Extension Letters of Credit. 
 (i) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the
case may be, upon the request of the Borrower delivered to the applicable L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in the form of a Letter of Credit Application, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer. Such Letter of
Credit Application must be received by such L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. at least two Business Days (or, in the case of Morgan Stanley Bank, N.A., at least five Business Days) (or such later date and time as the
Administrative Agent and such L/C Issuer may agree in a particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be. In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of
Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to such L/C Issuer: (A) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (B) the amount thereof;
(C) the expiry date thereof; (D) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (E) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (F) the full text of any certificate to be presented by
such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (G) the purpose and nature of such requested Letter of Credit; and (H) such other matters as such L/C Issuer may require. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding
Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to such L/C Issuer (A) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (B) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day);
(C) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (D) such other matters as such L/C Issuer may require. Additionally, the Borrower shall furnish to such L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent such other documents and information pertaining
to such requested Letter of Credit issuance or amendment, including any Issuer Documents, as such L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent may require. 
 (ii) Unless such L/C Issuer has received written notice from any Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, at least one Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of the
applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in Article IV shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, such L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit
for the account of the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with such L/C Issuer’s usual and customary business practices.

  
 36 

 
Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit by a L/C Issuer, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from such L/C Issuer a risk
participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share times the amount of such Letter of Credit. 
 (iii) If the Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the applicable L/C Issuer may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic
extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit the L/C Issuer to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period
(commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior written notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a specified day (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed
upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the L/C Issuer, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the L/C Issuer for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been
issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the L/C Issuer to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date; provided,
however, that the L/C Issuer shall not permit any such extension if (A) the L/C Issuer has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation, at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as
extended) under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of clause (ii) or (iii) of Section 2.03(a) or otherwise), or (B) it has received written notice on or before the day that is seven Business Days before
the Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from the Administrative Agent that the Required Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (2) from the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable
conditions specified in Section 4.03 is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing the L/C Issuer not to permit such extension. 
 (iv) If the Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the applicable L/C Issuer may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that permits the
automatic reinstatement of all or a portion of the stated amount thereof after any drawing thereunder (each, an “Auto-Reinstatement Letter of Credit”). Unless otherwise directed by the L/C Issuer, the Borrower shall not be required
to make a specific request to the L/C Issuer to permit such reinstatement. Once an Auto-Reinstatement Letter of Credit has been issued, except as provided in the following sentence, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not
require) the L/C Issuer to reinstate all or a portion of the stated amount thereof in accordance with the provisions of such Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such Auto-Reinstatement Letter of Credit permits the L/C Issuer to
decline to reinstate all or any portion of the stated amount thereof after a drawing thereunder by giving notice of such non-reinstatement within a specified number of days after such drawing (the “Non-Reinstatement Deadline”), the
L/C Issuer shall not permit such reinstatement if it has received a notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the Non-Reinstatement Deadline (A) from the Administrative Agent that
the Required Lenders have elected not to permit such reinstatement or (B) from the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.03 is not then satisfied (treating
such reinstatement as an L/C Credit Extension for purposes of this clause) and, in each case, directing the L/C Issuer not to permit such reinstatement. 
 (v) Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the L/C Issuer will also deliver to
the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment. 

  
 37 

 (c) Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations. 

(i) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the
applicable L/C Issuer shall notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof. Not later than 11:00 a.m. on the date of any payment by a L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit (each such date, an “Honor Date”), the Borrower
shall reimburse the L/C Issuer through the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing. If the Borrower fails to so reimburse the L/C Issuer by such time, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the
Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (the “Unreimbursed Amount”), and the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof. In such event, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of Base Rate
Loans to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.02 for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the amount of the
unutilized portion of the Aggregate Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 4.03 (other than the delivery of a Loan Notice). Any notice given by a L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)(i)
may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice. 

(ii) Each Lender (including the Lender acting as L/C Issuer) shall upon any written notice pursuant to Section
2.03(c)(i) make funds available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer at the Administrative Agent’s Office in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business
Day specified in such written notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of Section 2.03(c)(iii), each Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Loan to the Borrower in such
amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the L/C Issuer. 
 (iii) With respect to
any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans because the conditions set forth in Section 4.03 cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, the Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the L/C
Issuer an L/C Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the Default Rate. In such event, each
Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such
Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.03. 
 (iv) Until each Lender
funds its Loan or L/C Advance pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) to reimburse the L/C Issuer for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such amount shall be solely for the
account of the L/C Issuer. 
 (v) Each Lender’s obligation to make Loans or L/C Advances to reimburse the
L/C Issuer for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section 2.03(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment,
defense or other right which such Lender may have against the L/C Issuer, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether
or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Lender’s obligation to make Loans pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.03 (other than delivery by
the Borrower of a Loan Notice). No such making of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the L/C Issuer for the amount of any payment made by the L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit, together
with interest as provided herein. 

  
 38 

 (vi) If any Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for
the account of the L/C Issuer any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(c) by the time specified in Section 2.03(c)(ii), the L/C Issuer shall be entitled to recover
from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the L/C Issuer at a rate per
annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. A certificate of the L/C Issuer submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (vi) shall be conclusive
absent manifest error. 
 (d) Repayment of Participations. 

(i) At any time after the L/C Issuer has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any Lender such
Lender’s L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with Section 2.03(c), if the Administrative Agent receives for the account of such L/C Issuer any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon
(whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will distribute to such Lender its Pro Rata Share thereof (appropriately adjusted, in the
case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s L/C Advance was outstanding) in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent. 

(ii) If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of a L/C Issuer pursuant to Section
2.03(c)(i) is required to be returned under any of the circumstances described in Section 11.05 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such L/C Issuer in its discretion), each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent
for the account of such L/C Issuer its Pro Rata Share thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal
Funds Rate from time to time in effect. 
 (e) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the Borrower to reimburse each L/C
Issuer for each drawing under each Letter of Credit issued by it and to repay each L/C Borrowing shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances,
including the following: 
 (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement,
or any other Loan Document; 
 (ii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, set-off, defense or other right
that the Borrower or any Subsidiary may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), any L/C Issuer or any other Person,
whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction; 

(iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such 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; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of
Credit; 

  
 39 

 (iv) any payment by the L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit against
presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by the L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy,
debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under
any Debtor Relief Law; or 
 (v) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of
the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Borrower or any Subsidiary. 
 The Borrower shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with the Borrower’s instructions
or other irregularity, the Borrower will immediately notify the L/C Issuer. The Borrower shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the L/C Issuer and its correspondents unless such written notice is given as aforesaid.

 (f) Role of L/C Issuer. Each Lender and the Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the
L/C Issuer shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or
the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. No L/C Issuer, no Agent-Related Person and none of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of any L/C Issuer shall be liable to any Lender for (i) any
action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of all Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or
(iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Letter of Credit Application. The Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary
or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Borrower’s pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the
beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. No L/C Issuer, no Agent-Related Person, and none of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of any L/C Issuer, shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters
described in clauses (i) through (v) of Section 2.03(e); provided, however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower may have a claim against a L/C Issuer, and a L/C
Issuer may be liable to the Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the Borrower which the Borrower proves were caused by such L/C Issuer’s willful misconduct
or gross negligence or such L/C Issuer’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of
Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the L/C Issuers may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary,
and the L/C Issuers shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in
part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason. 

  
 40 

 (g) Cash Collateral. Upon the request of the Administrative Agent, (i) if any
L/C Issuer has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in an L/C Borrowing, or (ii) if, as of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any Letter of Credit for any reason remains
outstanding and partially or wholly undrawn, the Borrower shall immediately Cash Collateralize the then Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations (in an amount equal to such Outstanding Amount determined as of the date of such L/C Borrowing or the
Letter of Credit Expiration Date, as the case may be). At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within one Business Day following the written request of the Administrative Agent or any L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative
Agent) the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize such L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving effect to Section 2.15(d) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in an
amount not less than the Minimum Collateral Amount. 
 (i) Grant of Security Interest. The Borrower, and
to the extent Cash Collateral is provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the L/C Issuers, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash
Collateral as security for the Defaulting Lenders’ obligation to fund participations in respect of L/C Obligations, to be applied pursuant to clause (ii) below. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral
is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuers as herein provided (other than any Permitted Liens), or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the Minimum Collateral Amount,
the Borrower will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by
the Defaulting Lender). 
 (ii) Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this Section 2.03(g) or Section 2.15 in respect of Letters of Credit shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of L/C
Obligations (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for
herein. 
 (iii) Termination of Requirement. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided
to reduce one or more L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.03(g) following (A) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the
termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender), or (B) the determination by the Administrative Agent and the applicable L/C Issuer(s) that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that, subject to Section
2.15 the Person providing Cash Collateral and the L/C Issuers may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations. 

(h) Applicability of ISP98. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the applicable L/C Issuer and the Borrower when a Letter of Credit
is issued, the rules of the ISP shall apply to each Letter of Credit. 
 (i) Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower shall
pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share a Letter of Credit fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) for each Letter of Credit equal to the Applicable Rate times the daily maximum
amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit (whether or not such maximum amount is then in effect under such Letter of Credit). Letter of Credit Fees shall be (i) computed on a quarterly basis in arrears and (ii) due and
payable on the first Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand.
If there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the daily maximum amount of each Letter of Credit shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate 

  
 41 

 
separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon the request of the Required Lenders, while
any Event of Default exists, all Letter of Credit Fees shall accrue at the Default Rate. 
 (j) Fronting Fee and Documentary
and Processing Charges Payable to L/C Issuer. The Borrower shall pay directly to the applicable L/C Issuer for its own account a fronting fee with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by such L/C Issuer in the amount specified in the Fee
Letters, payable on the actual daily maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit (whether or not such maximum amount is then in effect under such Letter of Credit). Such fronting fee shall be computed on a quarterly basis in
arrears. Such fronting fee shall be due and payable on the first Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of
Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand. In addition, the Borrower shall pay directly to the applicable L/C Issuer for its own account the customary issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and
charges, of the L/C Issuer relating to letters of credit as from time to time in effect. Such customary fees and standard costs and charges are due and payable on demand and are nonrefundable. 

(k) Conflict with Issuer Documents. In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any Issuer Document, the
terms hereof shall control. 
 (l) Letters of Credit Issued for Loan Parties, Subsidiaries or Joint Ventures.
Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, any Loan Party or its Subsidiaries or Joint Ventures, the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the applicable
L/C Issuer hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of any Loan Party or its Subsidiaries or Joint Ventures inures to the benefit of the
Borrower, and that the Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Loan Parties, Subsidiaries and Joint Ventures. 
 2.04 Swing Line Loans. 
 (a) The Swing Line. Subject to the terms and
conditions set forth herein, the Swing Line Lender agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Section 2.04, to make loans in Dollars (each such loan, a “Swing Line Loan”) to the Borrower
from time to time on any Business Day during the Availability Period in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount of the Swing Line Sublimit, notwithstanding the fact that such Swing Line Loans, when aggregated with the
Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of Loans and L/C Obligations of the Lender acting as Swing Line Lender, may exceed the amount of such Lender’s Commitment; provided, however, that after giving effect to any Swing Line
Loan, (i) the Total Outstandings shall not exceed the Aggregate Commitments, and (ii) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Loans of any Lender, plus such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations,
plus such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line Loans shall not exceed such Lender’s Commitment, and provided, further, that the Borrower shall not use the proceeds of any Swing Line Loan to
refinance any outstanding Swing Line Loan. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower may borrow under this Section 2.04, prepay under Section 2.05, and reborrow under this
Section 2.04. Immediately upon the making of a Swing Line Loan, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Swing Line Lender a risk participation in such Swing Line Loan in an
amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share times the amount of such Swing Line Loan. 

  
 42 

 (b) Borrowing Procedures. Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be made upon the
Borrower’s irrevocable notice to the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent, which may be given by telephone. Each such notice must be received by the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. on the
requested borrowing date, and shall specify (i) the amount to be borrowed, which shall be a minimum of $2,000,000, and (ii) the requested borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day. Each such telephonic notice must be confirmed promptly
by delivery to the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent of a written Swing Line Loan Notice, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer. Promptly after receipt by the Swing Line Lender of any telephonic Swing Line Loan
Notice, the Swing Line Lender will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has also received such Swing Line Loan Notice and, if not, the Swing Line Lender will notify the Administrative Agent
(by telephone or in writing) of the contents thereof. Unless the Swing Line Lender has received notice (by telephone or in writing) from the Administrative Agent (including at the request of any Lender) prior to 2:00 p.m. on the date of the proposed
Swing Line Borrowing (A) directing the Swing Line Lender not to make such Swing Line Loan as a result of the limitations set forth in the first proviso to the first sentence of Section 2.04(a), or (B) that one or more of the
applicable conditions specified in Article IV is not then satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swing Line Lender will, not later than 3:00 p.m. on the borrowing date specified in such Swing Line Loan Notice, make
the amount of its Swing Line Loan available to the Borrower at its office by crediting the account of the Borrower on the books of the Swing Line Lender in immediately available funds. 

(c) Refinancing of Swing Line Loans. 
 (i) The Swing Line Lender at any time in its sole and absolute discretion may request, on behalf of the Borrower (which hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swing Line Lender to so request on its behalf),
that each Lender make a Base Rate Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the amount of Swing Line Loans then outstanding. Such request shall be made in writing (which written request shall be deemed to be a Loan Notice for
purposes hereof) and in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.02, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified therein for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the unutilized portion of the Aggregate
Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 4.03. The Swing Line Lender shall furnish the Borrower with a copy of the applicable Loan Notice promptly after delivering such notice to the Administrative Agent. Each Lender shall make an
amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the amount specified in such Loan Notice available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds for the account of the Swing Line Lender at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than
2:00 p.m. on the day specified in such Loan Notice, whereupon, subject to Section 2.04(c)(ii), each Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Loan to the Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent
shall remit the funds so received to the Swing Line Lender. 
 (ii) If for any reason any Swing Line Loan cannot
be refinanced by such a Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.04(c)(i), the request for Base Rate Loans submitted by the Swing Line Lender as set forth herein shall be deemed to be a request by the Swing Line Lender that each of the Lenders
fund its risk participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan and each Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender pursuant to Section 2.04(c)(i) shall be deemed payment in respect of such
participation. 
 (iii) If any Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the
Swing Line Lender any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.04(c) by the time specified in Section 2.04(c)(i), the Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover from such
Lender (acting through the Administrative 

  
 43 

 
Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Swing Line Lender at a
rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Swing Line Lender in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged
by the Swing Line Lender in connection with the foregoing. If such Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in the relevant Borrowing or funded participation
in the relevant Swing Line Loan, as the case may be. A certificate of the Swing Line Lender submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 (iv) Each Lender’s obligation to make Loans or to purchase and fund risk participations in Swing Line
Loans pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the
Swing Line Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing;
provided, however, that each Lender’s obligation to make Loans pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.03. No such funding of risk participations shall relieve or
otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to repay Swing Line Loans, together with interest as provided herein. 
 (d)
Repayment of Participations. 
 (i) At any time after any Lender has purchased and funded a risk
participation in a Swing Line Loan, if the Swing Line Lender receives any payment on account of such Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender will distribute to such Lender its Pro Rata Share thereof in the same funds as those received by the Swing
Line Lender. 
 (ii) If any payment received by the Swing Line Lender in respect of principal or interest on any
Swing Line Loan is required to be returned by the Swing Line Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 11.05 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Swing Line Lender in its discretion), each Lender shall
pay to the Swing Line Lender its Pro Rata Share thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate. The
Administrative Agent will make such demand upon the request of the Swing Line Lender. The obligations of the Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. 

(e) Interest for Account of Swing Line Lender. The Swing Line Lender shall be responsible for invoicing the Borrower for interest
on the Swing Line Loans. Until each Lender funds its Base Rate Loan or risk participation pursuant to this Section 2.04 to refinance such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any Swing Line Loan, interest in respect of such Pro Rata Share shall be
solely for the account of the Swing Line Lender. 
 (f) Payments Directly to Swing Line Lender. The Borrower shall make
all payments of principal and interest in respect of the Swing Line Loans directly to the Swing Line Lender. 

  
 44 

 2.05 Prepayments. 

(a) Optional. 
 (i) The Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (i) such
notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (A) three Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans and (B) on the date of prepayment of Base Rate Loans; (ii) any prepayment
of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; and (iii) any prepayment of Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $2,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000
in excess thereof; or, in each case, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the Type(s) of Loans to be prepaid. The Administrative Agent will promptly
notify each Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such prepayment. If such notice is given by the Borrower, the Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in
such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Any prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued interest thereon, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05. Each
such prepayment shall be applied to the Loans of the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares. 
 (ii) The Borrower may, upon notice to the Swing Line Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at any time or from time to time, voluntarily prepay Swing Line Loans in whole or in part without
premium or penalty; provided that (A) such notice must be received by the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. on the date of the prepayment, and (B) any such prepayment shall be in a minimum
principal amount of $2,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof or if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment. If such notice is given by the
Borrower, the Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. 
 (b) Mandatory. 
 (i) If for any reason the Total
Outstandings at any time exceed the Aggregate Commitments then in effect, the Borrower shall immediately prepay or repay all outstanding Loans and Swing Line Loans and/or Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations in an aggregate amount equal to such
excess; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be required to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations pursuant to this Section 2.05(b) unless after the prepayment in full of the Loans and the Swing Line Loans, the Total
Outstandings exceed the Aggregate Commitments then in effect. 
 (ii) To the extent that the aggregate amount of
Net Cash Proceeds of Asset Sales and Net Cash Proceeds of Casualty Events received by all Loan Parties and Restricted Subsidiaries in a fiscal year exceeds five percent (5%) of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets of the Parent Guarantor as of the
end of the most recently ended fiscal year, the Borrower shall apply an amount equal to 100% of such excess Net Cash Proceeds to prepay outstanding Loans and/or Cash Collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit in accordance with Section
2.05(b)(iv). 

  
 45 

 (iii) In the event that the Parent Guarantor, the Borrower or any Restricted
Subsidiary shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from the issuance or incurrence of Indebtedness for money borrowed (other than any cash proceeds from the issuance of Indebtedness permitted pursuant to Section 7.01) the Borrower shall within three
Business Day following the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds by the Parent Guarantor, the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary, apply an amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds to prepay outstanding Loans and/or Cash Collateralize
outstanding Letters of Credit in accordance with Section 2.05(b)(iv). 
 (iv) Mandatory prepayments under
this Section 2.05(b) shall be applied first, to outstanding Loans and, second, to Cash Collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit on a pro rata basis, in each case, with no corresponding permanent reduction of the Commitments. 

(v) Prepayments of Loans under this Section 2.05 shall be subject to Section 3.05, and, to the extent
interest is required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.08(c), shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be prepaid to but excluding the date of payment. 

2.06 Termination or Reduction of Commitments. The Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, terminate the
Aggregate Commitments, the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit, or from time to time permanently reduce the Aggregate Commitments, the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit; provided that (i) any such
notice shall be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. three Business Days prior to the date of termination or reduction, (ii) any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or any whole
multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, (iii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the (A) Aggregate Commitments if, after giving effect thereto and to any concurrent prepayments hereunder, the Total Outstandings would exceed the
Aggregate Commitments, (B) the Letter of Credit Sublimit if, after giving effect thereto, the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations not fully Cash Collateralized hereunder would exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit, or (C) the Swing Line
Sublimit if, after giving effect thereto and to any concurrent prepayments hereunder, the Outstanding Amount of Swing Line Loans would exceed the Swing Line Sublimit, and (iv) if, after giving effect to any reduction of the Aggregate
Commitments, the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit, as applicable, exceeds the amount of the Aggregate Commitments, the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit, as applicable, shall be automatically reduced by the
amount of such excess. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of any such notice of termination or reduction of the Aggregate Commitments. Any reduction of the Aggregate Commitments shall be applied to the Commitment of each
Lender according to its Pro Rata Share. All fees accrued until the effective date of any termination of the Aggregate Commitments shall be paid on the effective date of such termination. Any reduction of the Letter of Credit Sublimit shall be
applied to reduce the L/C Commitments of the L/C Issuers on a pro rata basis among them, unless otherwise agreed by the Borrower and all L/C Issuers. 
 2.07 Repayment of Loans and Swing Line Loans. The Borrower shall repay to the Lenders on the Maturity Date the aggregate principal amount of Loans outstanding on such date. The Borrower
shall repay to the Swing Line Lender the aggregate principal amount of each Swing Line Loan on the fifth Business Day after such Swing Line Loan is made. 
 2.08 Interest. 
 (a) Subject to the provisions of subsection
(b) below, (i) each Eurodollar Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate;
(ii) each Base Rate Loan shall 

  
 46 

 
bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate; and (iii) each Swing Line
Loan shall bear interest on the Outstanding Amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Swing Line Rate. 
 (b) (i) If any amount of principal of any Loan or Swing Line Loan is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, such
amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws. 
 (ii) If any amount (other than principal of any Loan or Swing Line Loan) payable by the Borrower under any Loan Document is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), whether at
stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, then upon the request of the Required Lenders, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted
by applicable Laws. 
 (iii) Upon the request of the Required Lenders, while any Event of Default exists, the Borrower shall pay
interest on the amount of all outstanding Obligations hereunder at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws. 

(iv) Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand.

 (c) Interest on each Loan and Swing Line Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable
thereto and at such other times as may be specified herein. In the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan or a Swing Line Loan, accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the
date of such repayment or prepayment. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law. 

2.09 Fees. In addition to certain fees described in subsections (i) and (j) of
Section 2.03: 
 (a) Commitment Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of
each Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, a commitment fee equal to the Applicable Rate times the actual daily amount by which the Aggregate Commitments exceed the sum of (i) the Outstanding Amount of Loans (for the avoidance of doubt,
other than the Swing Line Loans) and (ii) the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations. The commitment fee shall accrue at all times during the Availability Period, including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Article
IV is not met, and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears (i) promptly after Borrower receives notice of the amount of such commitment fee for such quarter, but not earlier than the last Business Day of each March, June, September
and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and (ii) on the Maturity Date. The commitment fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter,
the actual daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect. 

  
 47 

 (b) Other Fees. 

(i) The Borrower shall pay to the Arrangers and the Administrative Agent for their own respective accounts fees in the
amounts and at the times specified in the Fee Letters. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever. 
 (ii) The Borrower shall pay to the Lenders such fees as shall have been separately agreed upon in writing in the amounts and at the times so specified. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall
not be refundable for any reason whatsoever. 
 2.10 Computation of Interest and Fees. 

(a) All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans when the Base Rate is determined by Wells Fargo Bank’s “prime rate”
shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or
interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year). Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or
such portion is paid, provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.12(a), bear interest for one day. 
 (b) If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial statements of the Borrower or for any other reason, the Borrower or the Lenders determine that (i) the Consolidated
Leverage Ratio as calculated by the Borrower as of any applicable date was inaccurate and (ii) a proper calculation of the Consolidated Leverage Ratio would have resulted in higher pricing for such period, the Borrower shall immediately and
retroactively be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders, the L/C Issuers or the Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, promptly on demand by the Administrative Agent (or, after the occurrence of an
actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, automatically and without further action by the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender), an
amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period. This paragraph shall not limit the rights of the Administrative Agent, any
Lender, any L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, under Section 2.03(c)(iii), 2.03(i) or 2.08(b) or under Article VIII. 
 2.11 Evidence of Debt. 
 (a) The Credit Extensions made by each Lender shall
be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent
manifest error of the amount of the Credit Extensions made by the Lenders to the Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the
Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters,
the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the
Administrative Agent) a Note, which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount and maturity of its Loans
and payments with respect thereto. 

  
 48 

 (b) In addition to the accounts and records referred to in subsection (a), each
Lender and the Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records evidencing the purchases and sales by such Lender of participations in Letters of Credit. In the event of any conflict between the accounts
and records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any Lender in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. 

2.12 Payments Generally. 
 (a) All payments to be made by any Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as
otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in Dollars and
in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified herein. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Pro Rata Share (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as
received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after 2:00 p.m. shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to
accrue. 
 (b) If any payment to be made by any Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall come due on a day
other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be. 

(c) (i) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing of Eurodollar
Rate Loans (or, in the case of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, prior to 12:00 noon on the date of such Borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative
Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.02 (or, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, that such Lender has made such share available in accordance with and at the time
required by Section 2.02) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative
Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the
Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with
banking industry rules on interbank compensation, and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent
for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative
Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such
payment to the Administrative Agent. 
 (ii) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior
to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the L/C Issuers hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment
on such date in accordance herewith and may, in 

  
 49 

 
reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the L/C Issuers, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each Lender
or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or such L/C Issuer, with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is
distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

 A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this subsection
(c) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. 
 (d) If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds
for any Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Credit Extension set
forth in Article IV are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest. 

(e) The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans, to fund participations in Letters of Credit and to make payments pursuant to
Section 11.04(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any payment under Section 11.04(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of
its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under Section 11.04(c). 

(f) Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to
constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or it will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner. 
 2.13 Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of
its Loans made by it, or the participations in L/C Obligations or in Swing Line Loans held by it resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of such Loans or participations and accrued interest thereon greater
than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the
Loans and subparticipations in L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the
aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them, provided that: 
 (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of
such recovery, without interest; and 
 (ii) the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to
(x) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), or (y) the application of Cash Collateral
in accordance with this Agreement, or (z) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in L/C Obligations or Swing Line Loans to any assignee or
participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply). 

  
 50 

 The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable
law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the
Borrower in the amount of such participation. 
 2.14 Increase in Commitments. 

(a) Provided there exists no Default, upon notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders), the Borrower may
from time to time, (with the approval of the Administrative Agent, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) request an increase in the Aggregate Commitments by an amount (for all such requests) not exceeding
$250,000,000; provided that any such request for an increase shall be in a minimum amount of $25,000,000. To achieve the requested increase, the Borrower may ask one or more Lenders to increase their existing Commitments and/or invite
additional Eligible Assignees to become Lenders pursuant to a joinder agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. For the avoidance of doubt, no Lender shall be obligated to increase its Commitment pursuant
to this Section 2.14. 
 (b) If the Aggregate Commitments are increased in accordance with this Section, the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall determine the effective date (the “Increase Effective Date”) and the final allocation of such increase. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the
final allocation of such increase and the Increase Effective Date. As a condition precedent to such increase, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate dated as of the Increase Effective Date signed by a Responsible
Officer (i) certifying and attaching the resolutions approving or consenting to such increase, and (ii) certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase (A) the representations and warranties contained in Article
V are true and correct in all material respects (except that such materiality qualifier shall not be applicable to any representations and warranties that already are qualified or modified by materiality in the text thereof) on and as of the
Increase Effective Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct as of such earlier date, and except that for purposes of this Section 2.14,
the representations and warranties contained in Sections 5.06(a) and 5.06(b) shall be deemed to refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant to subsections (a) and (b), respectively, of Section 6.01,
and (B) no Default exists. The Borrower shall prepay any Loans outstanding on the Increase Effective Date (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05) if necessary to keep the outstanding Loans ratable with any
revised Pro Rata Shares arising from any nonratable increase in the Commitments under this Section. 
 (c) This Section shall
supersede any provisions in Section 2.13 or 11.01 to the contrary. 
 2.15 Defaulting Lenders.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Laws: 

(a) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with
respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Required Lenders, subject to the penultimate sentence of Section 11.01. 

  
 51 

 (b) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other
amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VIII or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender
pursuant to Section 11.08 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder;
second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the L/C Issuers or Swing Line Lender hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize each L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure with respect to
such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.03(g); fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof
as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting
Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the L/C Issuers’ future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of
Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.03(g); sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the L/C Issuers or Swing Line Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction
obtained by any Lender, any L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists,
to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under
this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or L/C Borrowings in respect
of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.03 were satisfied or waived, such
payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and L/C Borrowings owed to, all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or L/C Borrowings owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time
as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments hereunder without giving effect to Section 2.15(d). Any payments, prepayments or
other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.15(b) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting
Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. 
 (c) Certain Fees. 

(i) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Commitment Fee for any period during which that Lender is a
Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender). 

(ii) Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive Letter of Credit Fees for any period during which that Lender is
a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Pro Rata Share of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.03(g). 

(iii) With respect to any Commitment Fee or Letter of Credit Fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant
to clause (i) or (ii) above, the Borrower shall (A) pay to each non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation
in L/C Obligations or Swing Line 

  
 52 

 
Loans that has been reallocated to such non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.15(d), (B) pay to the L/C Issuers and the Swing Line Lender, as applicable, the amount of any such
fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to the L/C Issuers’ or Swing Line Lender’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (C) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.

 (d) Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s
participation in L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the
extent that (i) the conditions set forth in Section 4.03 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless the Borrower shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at such time, the Borrower shall be deemed to have
represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and (ii) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Outstanding Amount of any non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment. No
reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a non-Defaulting Lender as a result of
such non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation. 
 (e) Cash Collateral, Repayment of Swing
Line Loans. If the reallocation described in Section 2.15(d) cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, (i) first, prepay
Swing Line Loans in an amount equal to the Swing Line Lender’s Fronting Exposure and (ii) second, Cash Collateralize the L/C Issuers’ Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.03(g).

 (f) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender and the L/C Issuers agree
in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include
arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be
necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the Commitments under this Agreement (without giving effect to Section
2.15(d)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting
Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder
arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. 
 (g) New Swing Line Loans/Letters of Credit. So long as
any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (i) the Swing Line Lender shall not be required to fund any Swing Line Loans unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect to such Swing Line Loan and (ii) no L/C
Issuer shall be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto. 
 (h) Replacement of Defaulting Lender. So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender may be replaced in accordance with Section 11.14.

 ARTICLE III. 
 TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY 
 3.01 Taxes.

 (a) Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 3.01, the term “Lender” includes each L/C Issuer and
the Swing Line Lender and the term “applicable law” includes FATCA. 
 (b) Payments Free of Taxes. 

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

(c) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Loan Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance
with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes. 
 (d)
Indemnification by the Borrower. The Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or
attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such
Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or
by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 (e)
Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that a Loan Party has
not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section
11.06(f) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any
reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to
any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise
payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e). 

  
 54 

 (f) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by a Loan
Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 3.01, such Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of
the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
 (g)
Status of Lenders; Tax Documentation. 
 (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction
of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and
executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower
or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not
such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such
documentation set forth in Section 3.01(g)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material
unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. 

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing: 

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

(i) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party
(x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax
treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other
income” article of such tax treaty; 
 (ii) executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI; 

  
 55 

 (iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the
exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of
Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the
Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN; or 
 (iv) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in
the form of Exhibit E-2 or Exhibit E-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect
partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner.

 (C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the
Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary
documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and 

(D) if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by
FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by
Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under
FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any
amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. 
 Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously
delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. For purposes of this
Section 3.01(g), references to a Lender shall include the Administrative Agent. 

  
 56 

 (h) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion
exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 3.01 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.01), it shall pay to the
indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified
party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid
over pursuant to this paragraph (h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (h) the payment of which would place the indemnified party
in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or
additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to
the indemnifying party or any other Person. 
 (i) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 3.01
shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any
Loan Document. 
 (j) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section
3.01(b), or requires the Borrower to make any payments pursuant to Section 3.01(c), then such Lender shall (at the request of the Borrower) use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans
and, if applicable, Letters of Credit hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or
reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.01(b) or Section 3.01(c) in the future, and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. If the
Borrower requests a Lender to designate a different Lending Office or assign its rights and obligations to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, the Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by such Lender in
connection with any such designation or assignment. Subject to the foregoing, Lenders agree to use reasonable efforts to select lending offices which will minimize taxes and other costs and expenses for the Borrower. 

3.02 Illegality. 
 (a) If any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or
fund Eurodollar Rate Loans, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue
Eurodollar Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon
receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all Eurodollar Rate Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans, either on

  
 57 

 
the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to
maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted. Each Lender agrees to designate a different Lending Office if such designation will
avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender. 
 (b) If Export Development Corporation as a Lender (“EDC”) determines, acting reasonably, that any applicable law of the United States or any State thereof has made it unlawful, or that any
Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for EDC as a Lender to hold or benefit from a Lien on Real Property pursuant to any law of the United States or any State thereof, EDC may notify the Administrative Agent and may disclaim any
benefit of such security interest to the extent of such illegality, but such determination or disclaimer shall not invalidate, render unenforceable or otherwise adversely affect in any manner such Lien for the benefit of any other Lender or other
holder of Secured Obligations. 
 3.03 Inability to Determine Rates. If the Required Lenders determine that for
any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan, or that the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect
to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make
or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of,
conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein. 

3.04 Increased Cost and Reduced Return; Capital Adequacy; Reserves on Eurodollar Rate Loans. 

(a) If any Change in Law shall: 
 (i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or
participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement contemplated by Section 3.04(e)) or any L/C Issuer; 
 (ii) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection
Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or 

(iii) impose on any Lender or L/C Issuer or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than
Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; 
 and the result of any of the
foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making, continuing, converting to or maintaining any Loan the interest on which is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or
to increase the cost to such Lender or the L/C Issuer of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its 

  
 58 

 
obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the L/C Issuer hereunder (whether of principal,
interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender or the L/C Issuer, the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the
case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. 
 (b) If any Lender or L/C Issuer determines that any
Change in Law affecting such Lender or L/C Issuer or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate
of return on such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or
participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such L/C Issuer, to a level below that which such Lender or such L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s holding company could have
achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time
to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s holding company for any such
reduction suffered. 
 (c) A certificate of a Lender or a L/C Issuer setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate
such Lender or such L/C Issuer or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or
such L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 15 days after receipt thereof. 
 (d)
Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or L/C Issuer to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s right to demand such compensation,
provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or L/C Issuer pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than 270 days prior to the date that such
Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the
Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 270-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof). 

(e) The Borrower shall pay to each Lender, as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or
assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as “Eurocurrency liabilities”), additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Rate Loan, and of each Base Rate Loan bearing
interest based on the Eurodollar Rate, equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), which shall be due and payable on each
date on which interest is payable on such Loan, provided the Borrower shall have received at least 15 days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional interest from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice 15
days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest shall be due and payable 15 days from receipt of such notice. 
 3.05 Compensation for Losses. Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time, the Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such
Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of: 

  
 59 

 (a) any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Loan other than a Base Rate
Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise); or 
 (b) any failure by the Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on the date or in the amount
notified by the Borrower; or 
 (c) any assignment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest
Period therefor as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 11.14; 
 including any loss of anticipated profits and any
loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. The Borrower shall also pay any customary administrative
fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing. 
 For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to the Lenders
under this Section 3.05, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurodollar Rate Loan made by it at the Eurodollar Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London interbank eurodollar market for a
comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurodollar Rate Loan was in fact so funded. 
 3.06
Matters Applicable to all Requests for Compensation. 
 (a) A certificate of the Administrative Agent or any Lender
claiming compensation under this Article III and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, the Administrative Agent or such
Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. 
 (b) Upon any Lender’s making a claim for compensation
under Section 3.01 or 3.04 or if the Borrower is required to pay any amount for the account of any Lender or L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 3.01, the Borrower may replace such Lender in accordance with Section 11.14.

 3.07 Survival. All of the Borrower’s obligations under this Article III shall survive termination
of the Aggregate Commitments and repayment of all other Obligations hereunder. 
 ARTICLE IV. 

CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO CREDIT EXTENSIONS 
 4.01 Conditions to Effectiveness of this Agreement (Execution Date). This Agreement shall be effective upon satisfaction (or waiver in accordance with Section 11.01) of the

 ARTICLE V. 

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 
 Each Loan Party represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and each Lender that: 
 5.01 No Default. No event has occurred and is continuing which constitutes a Default. 

  
 65 

 5.02 Organization and Good Standing. Each Loan Party and each of its Material
Subsidiaries is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of its jurisdiction of organization, having all powers required to carry on its business and enter into and carry out the transactions contemplated hereby. Each
Loan Party and each of its Material Subsidiaries is duly qualified, in good standing, and authorized to do business in all other jurisdictions wherein the character of the properties owned or held by it or the nature of the business transacted by it
makes such qualification necessary, except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. 

5.03 Authorization. Each Loan Party has duly taken all necessary corporate action to authorize the execution and delivery
by it of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and to authorize the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby and the performance of its obligations thereunder. The Borrower is duly authorized to borrow funds hereunder. 

5.04 No Conflicts or Consents. The execution and delivery by each Loan Party of the Loan Documents to which it is a party,
the performance of its obligations under such Loan Documents, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents, do not and will not (a) conflict with any provision of (i) any Law, (ii) the Organization
Documents of any Loan Party, or (iii) any material agreement, judgment, license, order or permit applicable to or binding upon any Loan Party, (b) result in the acceleration of any material Indebtedness owed by any Loan Party, or
(c) result in or require the creation of any Lien upon any assets or properties of any Loan Party, except as expressly contemplated or permitted in the Loan Documents. Except as expressly contemplated in the Loan Documents and, with respect to
the Contribution, except as described in the Registration Statement, no material consent, approval, authorization or order of, and no notice to or filing with, any Governmental Authority or third party is required in connection with the execution,
delivery or performance by any Loan Party of any Loan Document to which it is a party or to consummate any transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents. 
 5.05 Enforceable Obligations. This Agreement is, and the other Loan Documents when duly executed and delivered will be, legal, valid and binding obligations of each Loan Party that is a
party thereto, enforceable in accordance with their terms except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar Laws of general application relating to the enforcement of creditors’ rights or by general principles of
equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law. 
 5.06 Financial Statements. 

(a) The Initial Financial Statements (i) fairly present, in all material respects, the financial position of the Acquired Businesses
at the respective dates thereof and the results of operations and consolidated cash flows of the Acquired Businesses for the respective periods thereof, and (ii) show all material indebtedness and other liabilities, direct or contingent, of the
Parent Guarantor and its Subsidiaries as of the dates thereof that are required to be disclosed under GAAP. The Initial Financial Statements were prepared in accordance with GAAP. 

  
 66 

 (b) Beginning with the initial delivery of the financial information required under
Section 6.01(a) and Section 6.01(b), the financial information delivered by the Parent Guarantor pursuant to such Sections (i) was prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the period covered thereby, except
as otherwise expressly noted therein, and (ii) fairly presents, in all material respects, the Parent Guarantor’s Consolidated financial condition as of the date thereof and the results of operations for the period covered thereby, subject,
in the case of interim statements, to the absence of footnotes and to normal year-end adjustments. 
 (c) Since December 31,
2012, there has been no event or circumstance, either individually or in the aggregate, that has had or could reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect. 
 5.07 Full Disclosure. No certificate, statement or other information delivered herewith or heretofore by any Loan Party to the Administrative Agent or to any Lender in connection with the
negotiation of this Agreement or in connection with any transaction contemplated hereby, taken as a whole, contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact known to any Loan Party (other than industry-wide risks
normally associated with the types of businesses conducted by the Loan Parties) necessary to make the statements contained herein or therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not materially misleading as of the date made or
deemed made, provided that, with respect to any projected financial information, the Borrower represents only that such information was prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed by the Borrower to be reasonable at the time (it
being recognized, however, that projections as to future events are not to be viewed as facts and that the actual results during the period or periods covered by any projections may materially differ from the projected results). There is no fact
known to any Loan Party (other than industry-wide risks normally associated with the types of businesses conducted by the Loan Parties) that has not been disclosed by the Loan Parties to each Lender in writing which would reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 5.08 Litigation. Except as disclosed in the Registration Statement, there are
no actions, suits or legal, equitable, arbitrative or administrative proceedings pending, or to the knowledge of the Borrower threatened, against any one or more Loan Parties or Subsidiaries before any Governmental Authority which, either
individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and there are no outstanding judgments, injunctions, writs, rulings or orders by any such Governmental Authority against any Loan Party or any
Subsidiary which, either individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

5.09 Labor Disputes and Acts of God. Except as disclosed on Schedule 5.09, neither the business nor the properties
of any Loan Party or any Material Subsidiary has been affected by any fire, explosion, accident, strike, lockout or other labor dispute, drought, storm, hail, earthquake, embargo, act of God or of the public enemy or other casualty (whether or not
covered by insurance), which, either individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 5.10 ERISA. No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all other such ERISA Events for which liability is reasonably expected to occur,
would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Each Loan Party and each ERISA Affiliate has fulfilled its obligations under the Pension Funding Rules with respect to each Pension Plan, except to the 

  
 67 

 
extent that such noncompliance would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Except as would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, no Loan
Party and no ERISA Affiliate has (a) sought a waiver of the minimum funding standard under the Pension Funding Rules in respect of any Plan, (b) failed to make any contribution or payment to any Plan or Multiemployer Plan, or made any
amendment to any Plan that has resulted or could result in the imposition of a Lien or the posting of a bond or other security under ERISA or the Code, or (c) incurred any liability under Title IV of ERISA other than a liability to the PBGC for
premiums under Section 4007 of ERISA that are not past due. 
 5.11 Environmental and Other Laws. Except for
matters that, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, no Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereof (i) has failed to comply with any Environmental Law or to obtain, maintain or
comply with any permit, license or other approval required under any Environmental Law or (ii) has become subject to any Environmental Liability.

Schedule 5.12, or (b) any equity investment in any other entity other than those disclosed on Schedule 5.12. 

5.13 Title to Properties; Licenses. Each Loan Party and Material Subsidiary has good title to, or valid leasehold interests
in, its properties and assets material to its business, except for any failure, defect or other matter that would not, in the aggregate, be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The property of each Loan Party and Material
Subsidiary material to the conduct of its business is free and clear of all Liens other than Permitted Liens. Each Loan Party and Material Subsidiary possesses all licenses, permits, franchises, patents, copyrights, trademarks and trade names, and
other intellectual property (or otherwise possesses the right to use such intellectual property without violation of the rights of any other Person) which are reasonably necessary to carry out its business as presently conducted and as presently
proposed to be conducted hereafter, and no Loan Party or Material Subsidiary is in violation in any material respect of the terms under which it possesses such intellectual property or the right to use such intellectual property, except as would
not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 5.14 Government Regulation. 

(a) No Loan Party or Subsidiary is engaged, or will engage, principally or as one of its important activities, in the business of
purchasing or carrying margin stock (within the meaning of Regulation U issued by the FRB), or extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying margin stock. No part of the proceeds of any Loan or Letter of Credit will be used for
purchasing or carrying margin stock or for any purpose which violates the provision of Regulation T, U or X of the FRB. 
 (b) No
Loan Party or Subsidiary is subject to regulation under any Law which regulates the incurring by such Person of Indebtedness. Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is an “investment company” as defined in, or regulated by, The
Investment Company Act of 1940. 

  
 68 

 5.15 Solvency. The Borrower and its Subsidiaries on a Consolidated basis, and
the Parent Guarantor and its Subsidiaries on a Consolidated basis, are Solvent. 
 5.16 Compliance with Laws and Material
Agreements. Each Loan Party and Restricted Subsidiary is in compliance with (a) all Laws applicable to it or its property or assets and (b) all Material Agreements, except where the failure to do so, individually or in the
aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
 5.17 Taxes. Each Loan Party
and its Restricted Subsidiaries has timely filed or caused to be filed all Tax returns and reports required to have been filed and has paid or caused to be paid all Taxes required to have been paid by it, except (a) Taxes that are being
contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings, are disclosed on the financial statements of the Parent Guarantor and, if required by GAAP, for which adequate reserves have been provided in accordance with GAAP or (b) to the extent that the
failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
 5.18 OFAC. No Loan
Party or any Subsidiary (i) is an “enemy” or an “ally of the enemy” within the meaning of Section 2 of the Trading with the Enemy Act of the United States (50 U.S.C. App. §§ 1 et seq.), (ii) is in

any operations in, finance any investments or activities in or make any payments to, a Sanctioned Person or a Sanctioned Country. 
 5.19 Insurance. Schedule 5.19 sets forth an accurate description of all insurance maintained by the Loan Parties and Restricted Subsidiaries as of the Closing Date. As of the Closing
Date, such insurance is in full force and effect and all premiums have been duly paid. The Loan Parties and Restricted Subsidiaries have insurance in such amounts and covering such risks and liabilities as are in accordance with normal industry
practice. 
 5.20 Collateral Documents. Each Collateral Document creates in favor of the Administrative Agent, for
the benefit of the Secured Parties, legal, valid and enforceable Liens on, and security interests in, each Loan Party’s right, title and interest in and to the Collateral therein described, and when all appropriate filings or recordings are
made in the appropriate offices as may be required under applicable Laws, such Collateral Document will constitute First Priority fully perfected Liens on, and security interests in, all right, title and interest of it in such Collateral, in each
case with no other Liens except for Liens that are permitted pursuant to this Agreement.

stating that such financial statements fairly present, in all material respects, the financial condition of the Parent Guarantor, stating that such Person has reviewed the Loan Documents, containing all calculations required to be made to show
compliance or non-compliance with the Financial Covenants, containing the information required by Section 6.01(d) and further stating that there is no condition or event at the end of such fiscal year or at the time of such certificate which

 (i) with respect to any financial statements relating to a period during which any Specified Non-Wholly Owned Subsidiary or any Unrestricted Subsidiary is a Consolidated Subsidiary of the Parent
Guarantor, a reasonably detailed reconciliation of each of the components reflected in the calculations of compliance with Financial Covenants to the corresponding amounts set forth in such financial statements; 

(ii) a statement by a Responsible Officer certifying that the Schedules attached to the Security Agreements are accurate

Internet at the website address listed on Schedule 11.02 or at http://www.sec.gov or (ii) the date on which such documents are posted on the Parent Guarantor’s behalf on an Internet or intranet website, if any, to which each Lender
and the Administrative Agent have access (whether a commercial, third-party website or whether sponsored by the Administrative Agent); provided that: (i) the Parent Guarantor shall deliver electronic or paper copies of such documents to
the Administrative Agent if requested and (ii) the Parent Guarantor shall notify (which may be by facsimile or electronic mail) the Administrative Agent of the posting of any such documents and provide to the Administrative Agent electronic
versions (i.e., soft copies) of such documents. Notwithstanding anything contained herein, in every instance the Parent Guarantor shall be required to provide electronic copies of the Compliance Certificates required by Sections
6.01(a) and (b) to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to request the delivery or to maintain copies of the documents referred to above, and in any event shall have no responsibility to monitor

Materials that are to be made available to Public Lenders shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof; (x) by
marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” each Loan Party shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers and the Lenders to treat such Borrower Materials as not containing any material non-public information with

Section 11.07); 

  
 71 

 
(y) all Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Side Information;” and (z) the

of record and accounts as may be required or necessary to permit the preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP; (b) furnish to each Lender any information which Administrative Agent or any Lender may from time to time

the request of, or may, with the consent of, the Required Lenders, take any or all of the following actions:

(b) declare the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans and Swing Line Loans, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon, and all
other amounts owing or payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document to be immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower;

 (d) enforce any and all security interests, Liens and other remedies pursuant to the Collateral Documents; and

applicable law; 
 provided, however, that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in subsections (g)(i) or
(g)(ii) of Section 8.01 with respect to the Borrower or the Parent Guarantor, the obligation of each Lender to make Loans and Swing Line Loans and all obligations of the L/C Issuers to make L/C Credit Extensions shall
automatically terminate, the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans and Swing Line Loans and all interest and other amounts as aforesaid shall automatically become due and payable, and the obligation of the Borrower to Cash Collateralize
the L/C Obligations as aforesaid shall automatically become effective, in each case without further act of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any L/C Issuer. 
 8.03 Application of Funds. After the exercise of remedies provided for in Section 8.02 (or after the Loans have automatically become immediately due and payable and the L/C
Obligations have automatically been required to be Cash Collateralized as set forth in Section 8.02), any amounts received on account of Secured Obligations and all net proceeds from the enforcement of Secured Obligations shall be
applied by the Administrative Agent in the following order: 
 (a) First, to payment of that portion of the Secured
Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (including Attorney Costs and amounts payable under Article III) payable to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such, the L/C Issuers in their capacity as such and
the Swing Line Lender in its capacity as such, ratably among the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and Swing Line Lender in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause (a) payable to them; 

  
 87 

 (b) Second, to payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting fees,
indemnities and other amounts (other than principal and interest) payable to the Lenders and the L/C Issuers under the Loan Documents (including Attorney Costs and amounts payable under Article III), ratably among them in proportion to the
amounts described in this clause (b) payable to them; 
 (c) Third, to payment of that portion of the Secured
Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans, Unreimbursed Amounts, L/C Borrowings, Swing Line Loans and other Obligations, ratably among the Lenders and the L/C Issuers in proportion to the respective amounts described in this
clause (c) payable to them; 
 (d) Fourth, to payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting
unpaid principal of the Loans, Unreimbursed Amounts, L/C Borrowings and Swing Line Loans, and payment obligations then owing under Secured Hedge Agreements and Secured Cash Management Agreements, ratably among the Lenders, the L/C Issuers, the Hedge
Banks and the Cash Management Banks in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause (d) held by them; 
 (e) Fifth, to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable L/C Issuers, to Cash Collateralize that portion of L/C Obligations comprised of the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of
Credit; and 
 (f) Last, the balance, if any, after all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, to the
Borrower or as otherwise required by Law. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, Secured Obligations arising under Secured Cash Management Agreements
and Secured Hedge Agreements shall be excluded from the application described above if the Administrative Agent has not received written notice thereof, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the
applicable Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank, as the case may be. Each Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank not a party to this Agreement that has given the notice contemplated by the preceding sentence shall, by such notice, be deemed to have
acknowledged and accepted the appointment of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of Article IX for itself and its Affiliates as if a “Lender” party hereto. 
 Subject to Section 2.03(c), amounts used to Cash Collateralize the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit pursuant to clause (e) above shall be applied to satisfy drawings
under such Letters of Credit as they occur. If any amount remains on deposit as Cash Collateral after all Letters of Credit have either been fully drawn or expired, such remaining amount shall be applied to the other Obligations, if any, in the
order set forth above. 
 ARTICLE IX. 
 ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT 
 9.01 Appointment and Authority. 

(a) Each Lender and L/C Issuer hereby irrevocably appoints Wells Fargo Bank to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and
under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers
as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers, and the Borrower shall not have rights as a third party beneficiary of such provisions. It
is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to

  
 88 

 
connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to
create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties. 
 (b) The Administrative Agent shall also act
as the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents, and each Lender (including in its capacity as a Hedge Bank or Cash Management Bank, and on behalf of any Affiliate that is now or hereafter a Hedge Bank or Cash Management Bank) and L/C
Issuer hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the agent of such Lender and L/C Issuer for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to
secure any of the Secured Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto (including, without limitation, to enter into additional Loan Documents or supplements to existing Loan Documents on behalf of the
Secured Parties). In this connection, the Administrative Agent, as “collateral agent” and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Article IX for purposes of holding or
enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Collateral Documents, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Administrative Agent, shall be entitled to the benefits of all
provisions of this Article IX and Article XI (including Section 11.04, as though such co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact were the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents) as if set forth in full herein
with respect thereto. 
 9.02 Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall
have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly
indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or
in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to
the Lenders. 
 9.03 Exculpatory Provisions. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations
except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent: 
 (a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing; 
 (b) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that
the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that the
Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law; and 

(c) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable
for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. 

  
 89 

 The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it
(i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as
provided in Sections 11.01 and 8.02) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such
Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, a Lender or a L/C Issuer. 
 The Administrative Agent shall not be
responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other
document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any
Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or
elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent. 
 9.04
Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing
(including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon
any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the
issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or L/C Issuer unless the Administrative Agent
shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or L/C Issuer prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower),
independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. 

9.05 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and
powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and
powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub agent, and shall apply to their respective
activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. 

  
 90 

 9.06 Resignation of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may at any
time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor, which shall
be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States and shall be a United States person within the meaning of 7701(a)(30) of the Code. 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 Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers, appoint
a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation
shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (2) except for any indemnity
payments owed to the retiring Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and L/C Issuer directly, until such time as
the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all
of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments owed to the retiring Administrative Agent), and the retiring Administrative 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 Section). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those
payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and
Section 11.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring
Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent. 
 Any resignation by Wells Fargo Bank as Administrative Agent pursuant
to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all
of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender, (b) the retiring L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the
other Loan Documents, and (c) the successor L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to
the retiring L/C Issuer to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring L/C Issuer with respect to such Letters of Credit. 
 9.07 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender and L/C Issuer acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any
other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and L/C Issuer also acknowledges that it will,
independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in
taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. 

  
 91 

 9.08 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of
any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to the Borrower or any Subsidiary, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or L/C Obligation shall then be due and payable as
herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise 

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, L/C
Obligations, Swing Line Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the L/C Issuers, the Swing Line Lender and the
Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the L/C Issuers, the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other
amounts due the Lenders, the L/C Issuers, the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.03(i) and (j), 2.09 and 11.04) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and 

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

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized
by each Lender, L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and the
Swing Line Lender, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent
under Sections 2.09 and 11.04. 
 Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent
to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender, any L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender, any L/C Issuer
or the Swing Line Lender to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender, any L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender in any such proceeding.

 9.10 Collateral
Matters. 
 (a) Each Lender and L/C Issuer authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to enter into the
Collateral Documents for the benefit of the Lenders and other Secured Parties. Each Lender hereby agrees, and each holder of any Loan (or any note evidencing a Loan) by the acceptance thereof will be deemed to agree, that, except as otherwise set
forth herein, any action taken by the Required Lenders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or the Collateral Documents and the exercise by the Required Lenders of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other
powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders. The Administrative 

  
 92 

 
Agent is hereby authorized on behalf of all of the Lenders, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender, from time to time prior to an Event of Default, to take any
action with respect to any Collateral or the Collateral Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the security interest in and Liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to the Collateral Documents. 

(b) The Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, 

(i) to release any Lien granted to or held by the Administrative Agent upon any Collateral and to release any Guaranty
(x) upon the full and final payment of the Obligations (other than contingent Obligations for which no claim has been made), termination of the Commitments of all Lenders and L/C Issuers, and termination of all Letters of Credit (or Cash
Collateralization thereof as acceptable to the applicable L/C Issuer) or (y) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders (or all of the Lenders hereunder, to the extent required by Section 11.01), 

(ii) to release any Lien on property being sold or otherwise disposed of (to Persons other than the Parent Guarantor, the
Borrower or a Subsidiary) upon the sale or other disposition thereof in compliance with Section 7.11, or as otherwise may be expressly provided in the relevant Collateral Documents, and 

(iii) release the Guaranty of a Subsidiary upon request made by the Borrower if (x) the Borrower has designated such
Subsidiary as an Immaterial Subsidiary in compliance with the terms of this Agreement, such Subsidiary is an Immaterial Subsidiary at the time of such release and no Default exists before or would exist immediately after such release, or
(y) all of the Equity Interests in such Subsidiary are being Disposed of in a Disposition permitted by Section 7.11. 
 Upon request
by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral or particular Guaranties pursuant to this Section 9.10. In each case as
specified in this Section 9.10(b), the Administrative Agent will, at the Borrower’s expense and upon presentation by the Borrower of a certificate of a Responsible Officer dated the date of the requested release and certifying as to the
matters in the foregoing clause (i), (ii) or (iii), as applicable, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party may reasonably request to evidence the release such item of Collateral or such Guaranty, as
applicable, in each case in accordance with the terms of this Section 9.10(b). 
 (c) The Administrative Agent shall
have no obligation whatsoever to the Lenders or to any other Person to require evidence that or otherwise assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by any Loan Party or any other grantor of a Lien under the Collateral Documents or is cared for,
protected or insured or that the Liens granted to the Administrative Agent herein or pursuant hereto have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise
or to continue exercising at all or in any manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to the Administrative Agent in this Section 9.10 or in any of the Collateral
Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, the Administrative Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, given the Administrative
Agent’s own interest in the Collateral as one of the Lenders, and that the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to the Lenders, except for its gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision). 

  
 93 

 9.11 Secured Hedge Agreements and Secured Cash Management Agreements. 

(a) Each Hedge Bank and each Cash Management Bank shall be deemed to appoint the Administrative Agent its nominee and agent, and to act
for and on behalf of such Affiliate in connection with the Collateral Documents and to be bound by this Article IX. 
 (b)
No Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank that obtains the benefits of Section 8.02 or any Collateral by virtue of the provisions hereof or of any Collateral Document shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object
to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document or otherwise in respect of the Collateral (including the release or impairment of any Collateral) other than in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only to the extent expressly
provided in the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article IX to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with
respect to, Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice of such Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements, together with such supporting
documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank, as the case may be. 
 ARTICLE X. 
 CONTINUING GUARANTY OF THE PARENT GUARANTOR 

10.01 Guaranty. The Parent Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, jointly with any other guarantors
from time to time and severally, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, and as a guaranty of payment and performance and not merely as a guaranty of collection, full and prompt payment when due, whether at stated maturity, by required
prepayment, upon acceleration, demand or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of any and all of the Guaranteed Obligations and the punctual performance of all of the terms of the Loan Documents. “Guaranteed Obligations” means
(a) the Obligations, and (b) all other advances to, and debts, liabilities, obligations, covenants and duties of the Borrower or any other Loan Party arising under any Secured Hedge Agreement or under any Secured Cash Management Agreement.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Guaranteed Obligations shall include such indebtedness, obligations, and liabilities which may be or hereafter become unenforceable or shall be an allowed or disallowed claim under any Debtor
Relief Laws, and shall include interest and fees that accrue after the commencement by or against any Loan Party or any Affiliate thereof of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws. 

The Administrative Agent’s books and records showing the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be admissible in evidence in any
action or proceeding, and shall be binding upon the Parent Guarantor, and conclusive for the purpose of establishing the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations, absent manifest error. This Guaranty shall not be affected by the genuineness, validity,
regularity or enforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any instrument or agreement evidencing any Guaranteed Obligations, or by the existence, validity, enforceability, perfection, non-perfection or extent of any collateral therefor, or by
any fact or circumstance relating to the Guaranteed Obligations which might otherwise constitute a defense to the obligations of the Parent Guarantor under this Guaranty, and the Parent Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any defenses it may now
have or hereafter acquire in any way relating to any or all of the foregoing, other than a defense of payment or performance. 

10.02 Rights of Lenders. The Parent Guarantor consents and agrees that the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers, the
Lenders and any other Secured Party may, at any time and from time to time, without notice or demand, and without affecting the enforceability or continuing effectiveness hereof: (a) amend, extend, renew, 

  
 94 

 
compromise, discharge, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment or the terms of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof; (b) take, hold, exchange, enforce, waive, release,
fail to perfect, sell, or otherwise dispose of any security for the payment of this Guaranty or any Guaranteed Obligations; (c) apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers, the
Lenders and any other Secured Party in their sole discretion may determine; and (d) release or substitute one or more of any endorsers or other guarantors of any of the Guaranteed Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
the Parent Guarantor consents to the taking of, or failure to take, any action which might in any manner or to any extent vary the risks of the Parent Guarantor under this Guaranty or which, but for this provision, might operate as a discharge of
the Parent Guarantor. 
 10.03 Certain Waivers. The Parent Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives to the fullest
extent permitted by law (a) any defenses (other than a defense of payment or performance) it may now have or hereafter acquire in any way relating to, any or all of the following: (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Loan
Document or any agreement or instrument relating thereto; (ii) without limiting Section 10.02, any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations of any other
Loan Party under or in respect of the Loan Documents, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from any Loan Document, including any increase in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from the extension of additional credit to
any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries or otherwise; (iii) any disability or other defense of the Borrower or any other Loan Party or the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of the Borrower or any other Loan Party;
(iv) any claim that the Parent Guarantor’s obligations exceed or are more burdensome than those of the Borrower or any other Loan Party; (v) any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of any Loan
Party or any of its Subsidiaries; or (vi) without limiting Section 10.02, the failure of any other Person to Guarantee the Guaranteed Obligations as required pursuant to Section 6.11 or the release or reduction of
liability of any other Guarantor; (b) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting the Parent Guarantor’s liability hereunder; (c) any right to proceed against the Borrower or any other Loan Party, proceed against or exhaust
any security for the Guaranteed Obligations, or pursue any other remedy in the power of the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any L/C Issuer, the Swing Line Lender or any other Secured Party whatsoever; (d) any benefit of and any right to
participate in any security now or hereafter held as security for the Guaranteed Obligations; (e) presentment or protest to, demand of or payment from the Borrower or any other Guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (f) notice of
acceptance of its guarantee and notice of protest for nonpayment; and (g) any and all other defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by applicable law limiting the liability of or exonerating guarantors or sureties. The Parent
Guarantor expressly waives all setoffs and counterclaims and all presentments, demands for payment or performance, notices of nonpayment or nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and all other notices or demands of any
kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, and all notices of acceptance of this Guaranty or of the existence, creation or incurrence of new or additional Guaranteed Obligations. 

10.04 Obligations Independent. The obligations of the Parent Guarantor hereunder are those of primary obligor, and not
merely as surety, and are independent of the Guaranteed Obligations and the obligations of any other guarantor, and a separate action may be brought against the Parent Guarantor to enforce this Guaranty whether or not the Borrower or any other
Person is joined as a party. 

  
 95 

 10.05 Subrogation. The Parent Guarantor shall not exercise any right of
subrogation, contribution, indemnity, reimbursement or similar rights with respect to any payments it makes under this Guaranty until Payment In Full. If any amounts are paid to the Parent Guarantor in violation of the foregoing limitation, then
such amounts shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the L/C Issuers, the Swing Line Lender and any other Secured Party and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent to reduce the amount of the
Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured. 
 10.06 Termination; Reinstatement. This Guaranty is a
continuing and irrevocable guaranty of all Guaranteed Obligations now or hereafter existing and shall remain in full force and effect until Payment In Full. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Guaranty shall continue in full force and effect or be
revived, as the case may be, if any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower or any other Loan Party is made, or any of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the L/C Issuers, the Swing Line Lender or any other Secured Party exercises its right of
setoff, in respect of the Obligations and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered
into by any of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the L/C Issuers, the Swing Line Lender or any other Secured Party in their discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally or otherwise, all as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred and whether or not any of the
Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the L/C Issuers, the Swing Line Lender or any other Secured Party are in possession of or have released this Guaranty and regardless of any prior revocation, rescission, termination or reduction. The obligations of
the Parent Guarantor under this Section shall survive termination of this Guaranty. 
 10.07 Subordination. The
Parent Guarantor hereby subordinates the payment of all obligations and indebtedness of the Borrower or any other Loan Party owing to the Parent Guarantor, whether now existing or hereafter arising, including any obligation of the Borrower or any
other Loan Party to the Parent Guarantor as subrogee of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the L/C Issuers, the Swing Line Lender and any other Secured Party or resulting from the Parent Guarantor’s performance under this Guaranty, to the
payment in full in cash of all Guaranteed Obligations (other than indemnities and other contingent obligations not then due and payable and as to which no claim has been made). So long as an Event of Default exists, if the Administrative Agent or
the Required Lenders so request, any such obligation or indebtedness of the Borrower or any other Loan Party to the Parent Guarantor shall be enforced and performance received by the Parent Guarantor as trustee for the Administrative Agent, the
Lenders, the L/C Issuers, the Swing Line Lender and any other Secured Party and the proceeds thereof shall be paid over to the Administrative Agent on account of the Guaranteed Obligations, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the
liability of the Parent Guarantor under this Guaranty. 
 10.08 Stay of Acceleration. If acceleration of the time
for payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is stayed in connection with any case commenced by or against the Parent Guarantor or any other Loan Party under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, all such amounts shall nonetheless be payable by
the Parent Guarantor immediately upon demand by the Administrative Agent.

 11.01 Amendments, Etc. 

No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and no consent to any departure by the Borrower

principal of, or the rate of interest specified herein on, any Loan, Swing Line Loan or L/C Borrowing, or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected

(v) the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (or other applicable Loan Party) shall be permitted to amend any provision of the Loan Documents (and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party
to any Loan Document) if the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall have jointly identified an obvious error or any error or omission of a technical or immaterial nature in any such provision. In accordance with Section 11.14, the
Borrower may replace any Lender that does not consent to any amendment, waiver or other action that requires the consent of all Lenders and that has been consented to by the Required Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no
Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except that (w) the Commitment (and, where applicable, maturity date) of such Lender may not be increased or extended without the
consent of such Lender, (x) the principal amount of any obligation, or the amount or rate of interest, owing to such Lender may not be reduced without the consent of such Lender, (y) the provisions of this sentence may not be revised in a

or instrument, in each case to effect the granting, perfection, protection, expansion or enhancement of any security interest in any Collateral or additional property to become Collateral for the benefit of the Secured Parties, or as required by
local law to give effect to, or protect any security interest for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in any property or so that the security interests therein comply with applicable Law.

Borrower’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of Borrower Materials through the Internet, except to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a
final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent Party; provided, however, that in no event shall any Agent Party have any liability to the Borrower, any Lender or any
other Person for indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages). 

  
 99 

 (d) Change of Address, Etc. Each of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the
L/C Issuers may change its address, telecopier or telephone number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. Each Lender may change its address, telecopier or telephone number for notices and other

Information” portion of the Platform and that may contain material non-public information with respect to the Borrower or its securities for purposes of United States Federal or state securities laws. 

(e) Reliance by Administrative Agent, L/C Issuers and Lenders. The Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders shall be
entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including telephonic Loan Notices) purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or
followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each L/C Issuer, each Lender and the
Related Parties of each of them from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower. All telephonic notices to and other telephonic
communications with the Administrative Agent may be recorded by the Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording. 
 11.03 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies; Enforcement. No failure by any Lender or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or
privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or
privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Borrower or
any Subsidiary shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 8.02 for the
benefit of all the Lenders and L/C Issuers; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its
capacity as Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (b) any L/C Issuer from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as L/C Issuer) hereunder and under the other Loan
Documents, (c) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 11.08 (subject to the terms of Section 2.13), or (d) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its
own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to the Borrower or any Subsidiary under any Debtor Relief Law; and provided, further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the
other Loan Documents, then (i) the Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.02 and (ii) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (b),
(c) and (d) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 2.13, any Lender may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required
Lenders.

related expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee), incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or any Loan Party or any Subsidiary arising out of, in connection
with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or
thereunder, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or, in the case of the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof) and its Related Parties only, the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents

PART, OUT OF THE COMPARATIVE, CONTRIBUTORY OR SOLE NEGLIGENCE OF THE INDEMNITEE; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses
(x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by a Loan Party or any
Subsidiary against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if such Loan Party or such Subsidiary has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such
claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. 

  
 101

 (c) Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that the Borrower for any reason fails to
indefeasibly pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), any L/C Issuer, the Swing Line Lender or any Related Party of any of
the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), such L/C Issuer, the Swing Line Lender or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share (determined as of the time
that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or
asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), such L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent),
such L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under this subsection (c) are subject to the provisions of Section 2.12(e). 

(d) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no Loan Party shall assert, and each
Loan Party hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this
Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in subsection
(b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed to such unintended recipients by such Indemnitee through telecommunications, electronic or other
information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby other than for direct or actual damages resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of
such Indemnitee as determined by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. 
 (e) Payments.
All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than ten Business Days after demand therefor. 
 (f)
Survival. The agreements in this Section shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent and any L/C Issuer, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of
the Obligations. 

  
 102

 11.05 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of any Loan
Party is made to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent or any Lender exercises its right of set-off, and such payment or the proceeds of such set-off or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be
fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any
proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not
been made or such set-off had not occurred, and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon
from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. 
 11.06 Successors and Assigns. 
 (a) Successors and Assigns Generally.
The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or
obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the
provisions of subsection (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of subsection (d) of this Section, or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject
to the restrictions of subsection (f) of this Section, and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any
Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in subsection (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnitees) any
legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 
 (b) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender
may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans (including for purposes of this subsection (b), participations in
L/C Obligations) at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions: 
 (i) Minimum Amounts. 
 (A) in the case of an assignment of
the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

 (B) in any case not described in Section 11.06(b)(i)(A), the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which
for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and
Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the
Administrative 

  
 103

 
Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed and such consent of the
Borrower being deemed to have been given by the Borrower unless it objects thereto within five Business Days after having received notice thereof); provided, however, that concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent
assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a single assignment for purposes of determining whether such minimum amount has been met.

 (ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate
part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Commitment assigned. 
 (iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by Section 11.06(b)(i)(B) and, in addition: 

(A) the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed and such consent of the Borrower
being deemed to have been given by the Borrower unless it objects thereto within five Business Days after having received notice thereof) shall be required unless (1) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such
assignment or (2) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; 
 (B) the
consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender; and

 (C) the consent of each L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender (each such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment. 
 (iv) Assignment and Assumption. The parties
to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may, in its
sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. 

(v) No Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made to (A) the Borrower or any of the
Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries or (B) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B).

 (vi) No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be made to a natural person.

 (vii) Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any
Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an
aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the 

  
 104

 
assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of
Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (A) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to
the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers, the Swing Line Lender and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (B) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of
Credit and Swing Line Loans in accordance with its Pro Rata Share. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without
compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs. 
 Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and
Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender
thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights
and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04, 3.05, and 11.04 with respect to facts and circumstances
occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any
party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. Upon request, the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations
under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (d) of this Section.

 (c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall
maintain at one of its offices in Charlotte, North Carolina, a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and
stated interest) of the Loans and L/C Obligations owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be
available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 
 (d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers or the Swing Line Lender, sell participations to any
Person (other than a natural person or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement
(including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Lender’s participations in L/C Obligations) owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged,
(ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers shall continue to deal solely and
directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. 

  
 105

 Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall
provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender
will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 11.01 that affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (e) of this Section,
the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 3.01(g)), 3.04 and 3.05 to
the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of
Section 11.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.13 as though it were a Lender. 
 (e) Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.01 or 3.04 than the applicable Lender would have been
entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were
a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.01 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 3.01(g)
as though it were a Lender. 
 (f) Participant Register. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for
this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other
obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any
information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such
commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender
shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its
capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. 
 (g) Certain
Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to
secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 

(h) As used herein, the following terms have the following meanings: 

“Eligible Assignee” means (a) a Lender; (b) an Affiliate of a Lender; (c) an Approved
Fund; and (d) any other Person (other than a natural person) approved by (i) the Administrative Agent and each L/C Issuer, and (ii) unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower (each such approval not to be
unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, “Eligible Assignee” shall not include the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries. 

  
 106

 “Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that
is (or will be) engaged in making, purchasing, holding or otherwise investing in commercial loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business. 

“Approved Fund” means any Fund that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an
Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender. 
 (i)
Resignation as L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender after Assignment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time Wells Fargo Bank assigns all of its Commitment and Loans pursuant to subsection (b) above,
Wells Fargo Bank may, upon 30 days’ notice to the Borrower and the Lenders, resign as L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender. In the event of any such resignation as L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender, the Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from
among the Lenders a successor L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by the Borrower to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of Wells Fargo Bank as L/C Issuer and Swing Line
Lender. If Wells Fargo Bank resigns as L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of a L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans
outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender (including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 2.03(c)
and Section 2.04). Upon the appointment of a successor L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and obligations of the retiring L/C Issuer and
Swing Line Lender and (b) the successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to Wells Fargo Bank to
effectively assume the obligations of Wells Fargo Bank with respect to such Letters of Credit. 
 11.07 Confidentiality.
Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates, and to its and its Affiliates’ respective
partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such
Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the
extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder, under any other Loan Document or under any Secured
Hedge Agreement or Secured Cash Management Agreement, or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any Secured Hedge Agreement or Secured Cash Management Agreement, or the enforcement of rights hereunder or
thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations
under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its Related Parties) to any swap, derivative or other agreement under which payments are to be made by reference to the Borrower or any Subsidiary and its or their
obligations, this Agreement, or payments hereunder, (g) with the consent of the Borrower, (h) on a confidential basis to (x) any rating agency in connection with rating the Parent Guarantor or its Subsidiaries or the credit facility
provided hereunder, or (y) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the credit facility provided hereunder, or (i) to the extent such Information
(x) becomes 
 publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (y) becomes available to the Administrative
Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower. 

  
 107

 For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received
from the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries relating to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis
prior to disclosure by the Borrower or any Subsidiary, provided that, in the case of information received from the Borrower or any Subsidiary after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as
confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the
confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. 
 Each of the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders acknowledges that (a) the Information may include material non-public information concerning the Borrower or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the
use of material non-public information and (c) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with applicable Law, including United States Federal and state securities Laws. 

11.08 Set-off. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to any Loan Party or any Subsidiary, any such notice being waived by the Borrower and the other Loan Parties (each on its own
behalf and on behalf of each Subsidiary) to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held by, and other obligations at any time owing by,
such Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or other Loan Party against any and all Obligations owing to such Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document, now or hereafter existing, irrespective of whether or not the
Administrative Agent or such Lender shall have made demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured or denominated in a currency different from that of the applicable deposit or
indebtedness or are owed to a branch, office or Affiliate of a Lender different from the branch, office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such obligation. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. 

11.09 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or
agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted to a Lender by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in
an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received
by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest,
(b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder. 

  
 108

 11.10 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different
parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement or any other
Loan Document or other document or writing delivered in connection therewith by facsimile or in electronic (i.e., “pdf” or “tif”) format shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

 11.11 Integration. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, comprises the complete and integrated
agreement of the parties on the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, on such subject matter. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Loan
Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control; provided that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in any other Loan Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this
Agreement. Each Loan Document was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof. 

11.12 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document
or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Administrative
Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of
any Credit Extension, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied or any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding. 

11.13 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or
unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations
to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular
jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 11.14 Replacement of
Lenders. Under any circumstances set forth herein providing that the Borrower shall have the right to replace a Lender as a party to this Agreement, the Borrower may, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, replace such Lender
by requiring such Lender to assign its Commitment (with the assignment fee to be paid by the Borrower in such instance) pursuant to (and subject to the consents required by) Section 11.06(b) to one or more Eligible Assignees;
provided that such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws and such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and L/C Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all
other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under 

  
 109

 
Section 3.05) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts); and provided,
further, that if the Borrower elects to exercise such right with respect to any Lender pursuant to Section 3.06(b), it shall be obligated to replace all Lenders that have made similar requests for compensation pursuant to
Section 3.01 or 3.04. Upon the making of any such assignment, the Borrower shall (x) pay in full any amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.05 and (y) provide appropriate assurances and indemnities (which may
include letters of credit) to the L/C Issuers as each may reasonably require with respect to any continuing obligation to fund participation interests in any L/C Obligations then outstanding. 

11.15 Governing Law. 
 (a) GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND ANY CLAIMS, CONTROVERSY, DISPUTE OR CAUSE OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE) BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF OR

SWING LINE RATE CALCULATION 
 The rate of interest for a Swing Line Loan shall be (a) the “ASK” rate for Federal Funds appearing on Page 5 of the Dow Jones Market Service (or on any successor or substitute page of such
Service, or any successor to or substitute for such Service, providing rate quotations comparable to those currently provided on such page of such Service, as determined by the Administrative Agent from time to time for purposes of providing
quotations of the offer rates applicable to Federal Funds for a term of one Business Day) at the time reviewed by the Administrative Agent plus (b) the Applicable Rate for Eurodollar Rate Loans. In the event that part (a) of such rate is
not available at such time for any reason, then part (a) of such rate will be the rate agreed to between the Administrative Agent and the Borrower. The Borrower understands and agrees that the rate quoted from Page 5 of the Dow Jones Market
Service is a real-time rate that changes from time to time. The rate quoted by the Administrative Agent and used for the purpose of setting the interest rate for a Swing Line Loan will be the rate on the screen of the Administrative Agent at the
time of setting the rate and will not be an average or composite of rates for that day.
