other than the Board; or” 

 Section 24. Section 24 of the Existing Agreement is amended and restated to read in its entirety as
follows:

except that this Agreement shall not affect or operate to reduce any benefit or compensation inuring to Executive of a kind elsewhere provided and not expressly provided for in this Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms and
conditions of this Agreement, on the one hand, and the terms and conditions of any option agreement, restricted stock or other equity award agreement with the Executive or any equity plan of the Company, on the other hand, with respect to the
exercise of any option, restricted stock or other equity award granted or awarded by the Company to the Executive, the effect of a Change in Control or the vesting of such options, restricted stock or other equity award upon or following a Change in
Control, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control.”

(c) agrees that the same are the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company and the Executive, enforceable against the Company and the Executive in accordance with its respective terms. 
 Severability. If, for any reason, any provision of this Amendment is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall
not affect any other provision of this Amendment not held so invalid, illegal or unenforceable, and each such other provision shall, to the full extent consistent with law, continue in full force and effect. In addition, if any provision of this
Amendment shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in part, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall in no way affect the rest of such provision not held so invalid, illegal or unenforceable and the rest of such provision,
together with all other provisions of this Amendment, shall, to the full extent consistent with law, continue in full force and effect. If any provision or part thereof shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, to the fullest extent permitted
by law, a provision or part thereof shall be substituted therefor that is valid, legal and enforceable.

operate only as to the specific term or condition waived and shall not constitute a waiver of such term or condition for the future or as to any act other than that specifically waived. 
 Entire Agreement. The Existing Agreement and this Amendment, together, contain the entire understanding between the parties hereto and supersedes any prior employment agreement between the Company or any
predecessor of the Company and Executive except that this Amendment shall not affect or operate to reduce any benefit or compensation inuring to Executive of a kind elsewhere provided and not expressly provided for in the Existing Agreement or this
Amendment. 

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused its duly authorized officer or director to execute and attest to this

 The parties hereto agree as follows: 
 ARTICLE 1 
 DEFINITIONS 
 Section 1.01. Defined Terms. As used in this Agreement, the following terms have the meanings specified below: 
 “ABR”, when used in reference to any Loan or Borrowing, refers to whether such Loan, or the Loans comprising such Borrowing, are bearing
interest at a rate determined by reference to the Alternate Base Rate. 
 “Acceptable Insurer” means (i) Lloyd’s
of London, so long as it is rated at least 3 crowns by S&P, (ii) an insurance company having an A.M. Best rating of “A-” or better and being in a financial size category of IX or larger (as such category is defined on the date
hereof) or (iii) an insurance company otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent. 
 “Administrative
Agent” means JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., in its capacity as administrative agent for the Lenders hereunder. 
 “Administrative Questionnaire” means an Administrative Questionnaire in a form supplied by the Administrative Agent. 
 “Affiliate” means, with respect to a specified Person, another Person that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, Controls or is Controlled by or is under common Control with the Person specified. No
SPC of any Lender shall be an Affiliate of such Lender. 
 “Aggregate Utilization Percentage” means, on any date, the
percentage equal to a fraction, the numerator of which is the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Credit Exposures of all Lenders and the denominator of which is the aggregate amount of Facility Commitments on such date of determination;
provided that, if any Revolving Credit Exposures remain outstanding and the Facility Commitments shall have been terminated, the Aggregate Utilization Percentage on and after such date shall be deemed to be in excess of 50%. 

 “Agreement Currency” has the meaning assigned to such term in Section 10.14.

 “Alternate Base Rate” means, for any day, a rate per annum equal
to the greater of (a) the Prime Rate in effect on such day and (b) the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect on such day plus  1/2 of 1%. Any change in the Alternate Base Rate due to a change in the Prime Rate or the Federal Funds Effective Rate shall be effective from and including the effective date of such change in the Prime
Rate or the Federal Funds Effective Rate, respectively. 
 “Applicable Agent” means, (a) with respect to a Loan
or Borrowing denominated in dollars, the Administrative Agent, (b) with respect to a Loan or Borrowing denominated in Sterling, the London Agent, or (c) with respect to a Loan or Borrowing denominated in Eurocurrency or Yen, the
Administrative Agent, or (d) with respect to a Loan or Borrowing denominated in any other Eligible Currency, such other Person as may be agreed upon by the Company and the Administrative Agent and designated in a notice delivered to the Lenders.

 “Applicable Percentage” means, with respect to any Lender, the percentage of the total Available Facility Commitments
represented by such Lender’s Available Facility Commitment. If the Facility Commitments have terminated or expired, the Applicable Percentages shall be determined based upon the Facility Commitments most recently in effect, giving effect to any
assignments. 
 “Applicable Rate” means, for any day, with respect to any Eurocurrency Revolving Loan, or with respect to
the facility fees or utilization fees payable pursuant to Section 2.11, as the case may be, the applicable rate per annum set forth below under the caption “Eurocurrency Spread”, “Facility Fee Rate” or “Utilization
Fee”, as the case may be, based upon the rating for the Index Debt (the “Index Debt Rating”) by S&P and Fitch, respectively, applicable on such date; provided that if, at any time, Moody’s has in effect an Index
Debt Rating, then all references to Fitch in this definition shall be deemed to be references to Moody’s and all references to Fitch ratings in the following table shall be deemed to be references to the comparable Moody’s ratings:

  

													
	 	  	Category 1	 	Category 2	 	Category 3	 	Category 4	 	Category 5	 	Category 6
	 Index Debt Rating:
	  	A or above	 	A–	 	BBB+	 	BBB	 	BBB–	 	below BBB–

	 Utilization Fee
	  	.050%	 	.050%	 	.050%	 	.100%	 	.100%	 	.100%

 For purposes of the foregoing, (i) if either S&P or Fitch shall not have in effect an
Index Debt Rating (other than by reason of the circumstances referred to 

  

 2 

 
in the last sentence of this paragraph), then the Applicable Rate shall be the rate set forth in the Category that is one number higher than the Category
applicable to the rating in effect; (ii) if neither S&P nor Fitch shall have in effect an Index Debt Rating (other than by reason of the circumstances referred to in the last sentence of this paragraph), then the Applicable Rate shall be
the rate set forth in Category 6; (iii) if the Index Debt Ratings established or deemed to have been established by S&P and Fitch shall fall within different Categories, the Applicable Rate shall be based on the higher of the two ratings
unless one of the two ratings is two or more Categories lower than the other, in which case the Applicable Rate shall be determined by reference to the Category next below that of the higher of the two ratings; and (iv) if the Index Debt
Ratings established by S&P and Fitch shall be changed (other than as a result of a change in the rating system of S&P or Fitch), such change shall be effective as of the date on which it is first announced by the applicable rating agency,
irrespective of when notice of such change shall have been furnished by the Company to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders pursuant to Section 5.01 or otherwise. Each change in the Applicable Rate shall apply (other than as described in
the immediately succeeding sentence) during the period commencing on the effective date of such change and ending on the date immediately preceding the effective date of the next such change. If the rating system of S&P or Fitch shall change, or
if either such rating agency shall cease to be in the business of rating corporate debt obligations, the Company and the Lenders shall negotiate in good faith to amend this definition to reflect such changed rating system or the unavailability of
ratings from such rating agency and, pending the effectiveness of any such amendment, the Applicable Rate shall be determined by reference to the rating most recently in effect prior to such change or cessation. 
 “Assignment and Assumption” means an assignment and assumption entered into by a Lender and an assignee (with the consent of any party
whose consent is required by Section 10.04), and accepted by the Administrative Agent, in the form of Exhibit A or any other form approved by the Administrative Agent.

 “Available Facility Commitment” means, with respect to any Lender at any time, an amount equal to such Lender’s Facility Commitment
at such time minus such Lender’s Funded Revolving Credit Exposure at such time. If the Facility Commitments have terminated or expired, the Available Facility Commitments shall be determined based upon the Facility Commitments most recently in
effect, giving effect to any assignments. 
 “Availability Period” means with respect to the Facility Commitments, the
Designated Currency Commitments or the Yen Commitments, as the case may be, the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the earlier of the Maturity Date and the date of termination of the Facility Commitments, the Designated
Currency Commitments or the Yen Commitments, respectively, pursuant to Section 2.08 or Article 7.

Eligible Currency, in each case to the account of the Applicable Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose for Loans of such Class by notice to the applicable Lenders; provided that Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in
Section 2.05. The Applicable Agent will make such Loans available to the relevant Borrower (i) in case of a Loan denominated in dollars, promptly (but in no event later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time), by crediting the amounts so
received by 12:00 noon, New York City time, in like funds, to an account of the Company maintained with the Administrative Agent in New York City, (ii) in the case of Revolving Designated Currency Loans, promptly (but in no event later than
12:00 noon, London time), by crediting the amounts so received by 11:00 a.m., London time, in like funds, to an account of the Company’s designation (iii) in the case of Revolving Yen Loans, promptly (but in no event later than 12:00 noon,
Tokyo time), by crediting the amounts so received by 11:00 a.m., Tokyo time, in like funds, to an account of the Company’s designation (in each case as designated by such Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request or Competitive Bid Request
(and, if the applicable Borrower is a Borrowing Subsidiary, the Company shall make such funds available to such Borrowing Subsidiary)), or (iv) to such other account as may be specified in the applicable Borrowing Request or Competitive Bid
Request. 
 (b) Unless the Applicable Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed time of any Borrowing that such
Lender will not make available to the Applicable Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Applicable Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and
may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the relevant Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Applicable Agent, then the applicable
Lender and each 

  

 30 

 
Borrower severally agree to pay to the Applicable 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 relevant Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Applicable Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, (x) the Federal Funds Effective Rate (in the case of a Borrowing in dollars)
and (y) the rate reasonably determined by the Applicable Agent to be the cost to it of funding such amount (in the case of a Borrowing in an Eligible Currency) or (ii) in the case of such Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the
subject Loan. If such Lender pays such amount to the Applicable Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing and the Applicable Agent shall return to such Borrower any amount (including interest) paid
by the Borrower to the Applicable Agent pursuant to this paragraph with respect to such amount. 
 Section 2.07. Interest Elections.
(a) Each Revolving Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request.
Thereafter, the relevant Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. A
Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising
each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. This Section shall not apply to Competitive Borrowings or Swingline Borrowings, which may not be converted or continued. Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, this Section shall
not be construed to permit any Borrower to (i) change the currency of any Borrowing or (ii) convert any Multicurrency Borrowing to an ABR Borrowing. 
 (b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, a Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time and at the office at which a Borrowing Request would be required to be
delivered under Section 2.03 if such Borrower were requesting a Revolving Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable
and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form reasonably approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the relevant Borrower. 
 (c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02: 
 (i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different
portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting 

  

 31 

 
Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

 (ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;

 (iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing; and 
 (iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such
election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”. 
 If any such Interest Election Request requests a
Eurocurrency Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then such Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. 
 (d) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing. 
 (e) If the relevant Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing prior to the end of
the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing (unless such Borrowing is a Multicurrency Borrowing, in which
case such Borrowing shall be continued at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing with an Interest Period of a duration of one month). Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing and the Applicable Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Company, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Revolving Borrowing may be converted to or
continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing (except as set forth in clause (ii)(y)) and (ii) unless repaid (x) each Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing (other than a Multicurrency Borrowing) shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the
Interest Period applicable thereto and (y) each Multicurrency Borrowing shall be continued at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a Multicurrency Borrowing with an Interest Period of a duration of one month. 
 Section 2.08. Termination, Reduction and Increase of Commitments. (a) Unless previously terminated, the Facility Commitments, the Designated
Currency Commitments and the Yen Commitments shall each terminate on the Maturity Date. 
  

 32 

 (b) The Company may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Facility Commitments, the
Designated Currency Commitments or the Yen Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000 and (ii) the Company shall not
terminate or reduce (A) the Facility Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.10, the sum of the Revolving Credit Exposures plus the total Competitive Loan Exposures would
exceed the total Facility Commitments, (B) the Designated Currency Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.10, the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Revolving
Designated Currency Loans would exceed the total Designated Currency Commitments, or (C) the Yen Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.10, the aggregate principal amount
of the outstanding Revolving Yen Loans would exceed the total Yen Commitments. 
 (c) The Company shall notify the Administrative Agent of
any election to terminate or reduce the Facility Commitments, the Designated Currency Commitments or the Yen Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section at least one Business Day (or, to the extent a concurrent prepayment of Loans is
required in accordance with Section 2.10, upon the minimum advance notice required in connection with such prepayment under such Section) prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective
date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Company pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of
termination of the Facility Commitments, the Designated Currency Commitments or the Yen Commitments delivered by the Company may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may
be revoked by the Company (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Facility Commitments, the Designated Currency Commitments or the
Yen Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Facility Commitments, the Designated Currency Commitments or the Yen Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders, the Designated Currency Lenders or the Yen Lenders, as the case may
be, in accordance with their respective Facility Commitments, Designated Currency Commitments or Yen Commitments, as applicable. 
 (d) Upon
at least 15 days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the Lenders), the Company shall have the right, subject to the terms and conditions set forth below, to
increase the aggregate amount of the Facility Commitments in multiples of $500,000 up to an aggregate amount not to exceed $150,000,000. Any such increase shall apply, at the option of the Company, (x) to the Facility Commitment of one or more
Lenders, if such Lender or Lenders consent to such 

  

 33 

 
increase, or (y) to the creation of new Facility Commitments of one or more institutions not then a Lender hereunder; provided that (i) if
any such institution is not then a Lender hereunder, such institution shall be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, (ii) such existing or new Lender shall execute and deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent an
Assumption Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit G hereto (an “Assumption Agreement”) and (iii) if any Revolving Loans are outstanding at the time of any such increase, the Company will, notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in this Agreement, on the date of such increase incur and repay or prepay one or more Revolving Loans from the Lenders in such amounts so that after giving effect thereto, the Revolving Loans shall be outstanding on a pro rata
basis (based on the Facility Commitments of the Lenders after giving effect to the changes made pursuant hereto on such date) from all the Lenders. Upon the effectiveness of any increase in Facility Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.08(d),
Schedule 2.01(a) hereto shall be automatically amended to reflect such increase. It is understood that any increase in the amount of the Facility Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.08(d) shall not constitute an amendment or modification of
this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.02. 
 Section 2.09. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) Each Borrower hereby
unconditionally promises to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan of such Borrower on the Maturity Date, (ii) to the Administrative Agent for the account
of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Competitive Loan of such Borrower on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan and (iii) to the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan
of such Borrower on the earlier of the Maturity Date and the day that is (x) no more than 15 days after such Swingline Loan is made (it being understood that day one will be the day after such Swingline Loan is made and if such 15th day is
not a Business Day, such Swingline Loan will be due on the next succeeding Business Day) and (y) at least two Business Days after such Swingline Loan is made. 
 (b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of each Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the
amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. 
 (c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain
accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Class and Type (and, in the case of a Multicurrency Loan, the currency) thereof and the Interest Period (if any) applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any
principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s
share thereof. 
  

 34 

 (d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this
Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any
manner affect the obligation of any Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
 (e) Any Lender may request
that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, each Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its
registered assigns) and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and the Company. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by each such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 10.04)
be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns). 
 Section 2.10. Prepayment of Loans. (a) Any Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing of such
Borrower in whole or in part, subject to prior notice in accordance with paragraph (d) of this Section; provided that no Borrower shall have the right to prepay any Competitive Loan without the prior consent of the Lender thereof.

 (b) If, on the last day of any Interest Period for any Borrowing, the sum of the total Revolving Credit Exposures plus the total
Competitive Loan Exposures exceeds the total Facility Commitments, the relevant Borrower shall, on such day, prepay Revolving Loans in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) such excess and (ii) the amount of such Borrowing. If, on any Reset
Date, the sum of the total Revolving Credit Exposures plus the total Competitive Loan Exposures exceeds 105% of the total Facility Commitments, then the Borrowers shall, on the next Reset Date, prepay one or more Revolving Borrowings in an aggregate
principal amount equal to the excess, if any, of the sum of the total Revolving Credit Exposures plus the total Competitive Loan Exposures (in each case as of such next Reset Date) over the total Facility Commitments. 
 (c) If, on the last day of any Interest Period for any Multicurrency Borrowing, the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding
Multicurrency Loans exceeds $100,000,000, the relevant Borrower shall, on such day, prepay such Multicurrency Borrowing in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) such excess and (ii) the amount of such Borrowing. If, on any Reset Date, the
Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Multicurrency Loans exceeds 105% of $100,000,000, then the Borrowers shall, on the next Reset Date, prepay one or more Multicurrency Borrowings in an aggregate principal amount equal
to the excess, if any, of the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Multicurrency Loans (as of such next Reset Date) over $100,000,000. 
  

 35 

 (d) The relevant Borrower shall notify the Applicable Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a
Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender) by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurocurrency Revolving Dollar Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business
Days before the date of prepayment, (ii) in the case of prepayment of a Eurocurrency Designated Currency Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Yen Borrowing, not later than 10:00 a.m., London time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment,
(iii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Revolving Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date of prepayment, or (iv) in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time,
on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that, if a notice of prepayment is given in
connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Facility Commitments, the Designated Currency Commitments or the Yen Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.08, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of
termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.08. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Revolving Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any
Revolving Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Revolving Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02 (other than any partial prepayment made concurrently with a reduction of the
Commitments permitted by Section 2.08(b), which may be in the amount necessary to comply with the condition to such reduction set forth in such Section). Each prepayment of a Revolving Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in
the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.12. 
 Section 2.11.
Fees. (a) The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a facility fee, which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the daily amount of the Facility Commitment of such Lender (whether used or unused)
during the period from and including the date hereof to but excluding the date on which such Facility Commitment terminates; provided that, if such Lender continues to have any Revolving Credit Exposure or Competitive Loan Exposure after its
Facility Commitment terminates, then such facility fee shall continue to accrue on the daily amount of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure or Competitive Loan Exposure from and including the date on which its Facility Commitment terminates
to but excluding the date on which such Lender ceases to have any Revolving Credit Exposure or Competitive Loan Exposure (the “Facility Fees”). Accrued Facility Fees shall be payable in arrears on the last day of March, June,
September and December of each year and on the date on which the Facility Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereof; provided that any Facility Fees accruing after the date on which the Facility
Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. All Facility Fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). 
  

 36 

 (b) The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a utilization
fee, which shall accrue at an Applicable Rate on the average daily outstanding amount of the Revolving Credit Exposure of such Lender, for each day the Aggregate Utilization Percentage exceeds 50% (the “Utilization Fee”) Accrued
utilization fees, if any, shall be payable in arrears on the last day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the Maturity Date. All utilization fees shall be computed on a basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the
actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). 
 (c) The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative
Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between the Company and the Administrative Agent. 
 (d) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent for distribution, in the case of facility fees, to the Lenders. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any
circumstances. 
 Section 2.12. Interest. (a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing (including each Swingline Loan) shall bear
interest at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate. 
 (b) The Loans comprising each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall bear interest at
a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of a Eurocurrency Revolving Loan, the LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate, or (ii) in the case of a Eurocurrency Competitive Loan, the LIBO Rate
for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus (or minus, as applicable) the Margin applicable to such Loan. 
 (c) Each Fixed
Rate Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Fixed Rate applicable to such Loan. 
 (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by any Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before
judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided above or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans
as provided above. 
 (e) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan;
provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any 

  

 37 

 
repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan prior to the end of the Availability Period for the Facility
Commitments), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment, (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurocurrency Revolving Loan prior to the end of the current
Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion and (iv) all accrued interest shall be payable upon termination of the Facility Commitments. 
 (f) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at
times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but
excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate or LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be presumed correct absent manifest error. 
 Section 2.13. Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Borrowing: 
 (a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be presumed correct absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not
exist for ascertaining the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period; or 
 (b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders (or,
(i) in the case of a Eurocurrency Competitive Loan, the Lender that is required to make such Loan or (ii) in the case of a Revolving Designated Currency Loan or Revolving Yen Loan, as the case may be, Designated Currency Lenders or Yen
Lenders, as applicable, having Designated Currency Commitments or Yen Commitments, as applicable, representing at least 51% of the Designated Currency Commitments or Yen Commitments, as applicable, at such time) that the LIBO Rate for such Interest
Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period; or 
 (c) in the case of a Multicurrency Borrowing, the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be presumed correct absent manifest error)
that deposits in the applicable currency are not generally available, or cannot be obtained by the Multicurrency Lenders in the applicable market; 
 then
the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Company and the Lenders or the applicable Multicurrency Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Company and the
Lenders or the applicable Multicurrency Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Revolving Borrowing to, or 

  

 38 

 
continuation of any Revolving Borrowing as, a Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be ineffective, and any Eurocurrency Borrowing so requested to be continued shall,
at the option of the Company, be repaid in full on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, or be converted to an ABR Borrowing denominated in dollars (and in the case of a Multicurrency Borrowing, such conversion shall be made at the
Exchange Rate determined by the Administrative Agent on the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto), (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing (other than a Multicurrency Borrowing),
such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing and (iii) any request by any Borrower for a Eurocurrency Competitive Borrowing or a Multicurrency Borrowing shall be ineffective; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such
notice do not affect all the Lenders, then requests for Eurocurrency Competitive Borrowings may be made to Lenders that are not affected thereby and, if the circumstances giving rise to such notice do not affect all applicable currencies, then
requests for Eurocurrency Borrowings may be made in the currencies that are not affected thereby and, if the circumstances giving rise to such notice only affect one Type of Borrowing, then the other Type of Borrowing shall not be affected.

 Section 2.14. Increased Costs. (a) If any Governmental Authority shall have in effect any reserve, liquid asset or similar
requirement with respect to any category of deposits or liabilities customarily used to fund Loans, or by reference to which interest rates applicable to Loans are determined, and the result of such requirement shall be to increase the cost (other
than Taxes) to such Lender of making or maintaining any Loan, and such Lender shall deliver to the Company a notice requesting compensation under this paragraph and setting forth the applicable Statutory Reserve Rate, then the Company shall pay to
such Lender on each Interest Payment Date with respect to each affected Loan additional interest at a rate per annum up to but not exceeding the excess of (i) the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan (the “Applicable Interest
Rate”) divided by one minus the applicable Statutory Reserve Rate over (ii) the Applicable Interest Rate. 
 (b) If any Change
in Law shall: 
 (i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of,
deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement covered by subsection (a) above); or 
 (ii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market (or any other market in which the funding operations of such Lender shall be conducted with respect to any Eligible Currency) any other condition affecting this
Agreement or Eurocurrency Loans or Fixed Rate Loans made by such Lender; 
 and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost (other than
Taxes) to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurocurrency Loan or Fixed 

  

 39 

 
Rate Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender in respect
thereof hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Company will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. 
 (c) If any Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such
Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have
achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Company will pay to such Lender such
additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. 
 (d) A
certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of this Section shall be delivered to the Company and
shall be presumed correct absent manifest error. The Company shall pay such Lender the amount due under this Section within 10 days after receipt of the relevant certificate. 
 (e) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right
to demand such compensation; provided that the Company shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than six months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the
Company of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions
is retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. 
 (f)
Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, a Lender shall not be entitled to compensation pursuant to this Section in respect of any Competitive Loan if the Change in Law that would otherwise entitle it to such compensation shall have
been publicly announced or be otherwise known to it prior to submission of the Competitive Bid pursuant to which such Loan was made. 
 Section 2.15. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurocurrency Loan or Fixed Rate Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an
Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the conversion of any 

  

 40 

 
Multicurrency Loan to a dollar denominated Loan pursuant to any Section of this Agreement, (d) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any
Eurocurrency Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice is permitted to be revocable under Section 2.10(d) and is revoked in accordance herewith), (e) the failure to borrow any
Eurocurrency Competitive Loan after accepting the Competitive Bid to make such Loan, or (f) the assignment of any Eurocurrency Loan or Fixed Rate Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by
the Company pursuant to Section 2.18, then, in any such event, the Company shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event (and in the case of any conversion of Multicurrency Loans to dollar Loans, such
loss, cost or expense shall also include any loss, cost or expense sustained by a Multicurrency Lender as a result of such conversion). In the case of a Eurocurrency Loan, the loss to any Lender attributable to any such event shall be deemed to
consist of (in addition to any conversion losses) an amount determined by such Lender to be equal, except as otherwise provided in the final parenthetical in the preceding sentence, to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that such
Lender would pay for a deposit equal to the principal amount of such Loan (and in the same currency as such Loan) for the period from the date of such payment, conversion, failure or assignment to the last day of the then current Interest Period for
such Loan (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the duration of the Interest Period that would have resulted from such borrowing, conversion or continuation) if the interest rate payable on such deposit were equal to the LIBO
Rate for such Interest Period, over (ii) the amount of interest that such Lender would earn on such principal amount for such period if such Lender were to invest such principal amount for such period at the interest rate that would be bid by
such Lender (or an affiliate of such Lender) for deposits in the same currency from other banks in the eurodollar market at the commencement of such period. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled
to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Company and shall be presumed correct absent manifest error. The Company shall pay such Lender the amount due under this Section within 10 days after receipt of the relevant certificate.

 Section 2.16. Taxes. (a) Subject to compliance with Section 2.16(e), any and all payments by or on account of any
obligation of any Borrower hereunder shall be made without deduction or withholding other than any deduction or withholding on account of any Taxes that are required by law to be withheld; provided that if any Borrower shall be required to
deduct any Indemnified Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the
Administrative Agent or Lender (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions of Indemnified Taxes been made, (ii) such Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) such Borrower
shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 
  

 41 

 (b) In addition, the Borrowers shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in
accordance with applicable law. 
 (c) The relevant Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within 10 days after
written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of any Borrower hereunder
(including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section), and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified
Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. For purposes of this Section 2.16(c), amounts paid by any Borrower pursuant to Sections 2.16(a) or (b) shall not themselves be
treated as paid by the Administrative Agent or a Lender. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Company by a Lender, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive
absent manifest error. 
 (d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by any Borrower to a Governmental
Authority, such Borrower 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. 
 (e) Each Lender that is not a United States person as defined in section
7701(a)(30) of the Code shall, if legally able to do so, prior to the immediately following due date of any payment by the Borrower under this Agreement, deliver to the Borrower Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI, or, in the case of
a Lender claiming exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax with respect to payments under this Agreement under section 871(h) or 881(c) of the code relating to payments of “portfolio interest”, Form W-8BEN and a statement substantially
in the form of Exhibit F, and any other certificate or statement of exemption or any subsequent version thereof or successors thereto (or, in the case of a participation or to the extent otherwise necessary, a Form W-8IMY with any required
attachments, including, but not limited to, Form W-8BEN, Form W-8ECI or Form W-9), properly completed and duly executed by such Lender claiming complete exemption, if available, or a reduced rate of United States federal withholding tax. Any Foreign
Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax with respect to payments under this Agreement pursuant to the law of a Relevant Jurisdiction, other than the United States of America, or under any treaty to which a
Relevant Jurisdiction is a party shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or
reasonably requested by the Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate. 
  

 42 

 If any Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, shall become aware that it is entitled to receive a refund in
respect of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes pursuant to Section 2.16, it shall promptly notify the Borrower of the availability of such refund. If the Company requests that any Lender or the Administrative Agent (x) apply for a refund in
respect of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes pursuant to Section 2.16 or (y) contest an Indemnified Tax or Other Tax, and the Company delivers, upon request, an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to such Lender or the Administrative
Agent, as applicable, with respect to such refund or contest, such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, shall, at the Company’s expense, apply for such refund or contest such tax within 30 days following (i) receipt of such
request from the Company or, if later, (ii) delivery of the requested opinion. If any Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund (whether by way of a direct payment or by
offset) of any Indemnified Tax or Other Tax for which a payment has been made pursuant to Section 2.16 or realizes any credit or other tax benefit as a result of the payment of such Tax by any Borrower, which refund, credit or tax benefit in
the good faith judgment of such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, is allocable to such payment made under Section 2.16, the amount of such refund, credit or tax benefit (together with any interest received from the
applicable Governmental Authority thereon) shall be paid to such Borrower, net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with
respect to such refund); provided, that such Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant
Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This Section shall not be construed to require the
Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to such Borrower or any other Person. 
 Section 2.17. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs. (a) Except as set forth with respect to payments of principal of
or interest on Multicurrency Loans in Schedule 2.17, each Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest or fees under Section 2.09, 2.11, 2.12, 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16) from a payment location
in the United States prior to 1:00 p.m., New York City time (in the case of payments with respect to Revolving Designated Currency Loans, prior to 11:00 a.m., London time, or in the case of payments with respect to Revolving Yen Loans, prior to
11:00 a.m., Tokyo time), on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time (or any other applicable time set forth with respect to Multicurrency Loans in 

  

 43 

 
Schedule 2.17) on any date may, in the discretion of the Applicable Agent (or in the case of a Competitive Loan, the applicable Lender), be deemed to have
been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made (i) in the case of amounts due in dollars, to the Applicable Agent at its offices at 270 Park Avenue, New York, New
York and (ii) in the case of amounts due in any Eligible Currency, to the Applicable Agent at its offices at 125 London Wall, London EC2Y 5AJ, United Kingdom, or at such other office as shall be specified for such currency by the
Applicable Agent, except that payments to be made directly to the Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and payments pursuant to Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 10.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Applicable Agent
shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment
shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) shall
be made in the applicable currency specified elsewhere herein or, if no currency is specified, in dollars. 
 (b) If at any time insufficient
funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, to pay interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the
parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, to pay principal then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal
then due to such parties. 
 (c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in
respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Revolving Loans or participations in Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Revolving Loans and participations in
Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Revolving Loans and participations in
Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Revolving Loans
and participations in Swingline Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price
restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by any Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or
any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a 

  

 44 

 
participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to any Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the
provisions of this paragraph shall apply). Each 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 such Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation. 
 (d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Company or the relevant Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to
the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance
upon such assumption, distribute (or cause the Applicable Agent to distribute) to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if such Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative
Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender 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, (i) in the
case of a Borrowing in dollars, at the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (ii) in the case of a Borrowing in an Eligible Currency, at the rate reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent to be the cost to it of funding such amount.

 (e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.05(c), Section 2.06(b) or
Section 2.17(d), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such
Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid. 
 Section 2.18. Mitigation
Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender
pursuant to Section 2.16, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or
affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.14 or Section 2.16, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject
such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Company hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or
assignment. 
  

 45 

 (b) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, or if any Borrower is required to pay
any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, or if any Lender defaults in its obligation to fund Loans hereunder, or if any Lender fails to approve any waiver or
amendment to this Agreement which has been approved by the Required Lenders, then the Company may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse
(in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement (other than any outstanding Competitive Loans held by it) to an assignee that shall assume such
obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Company shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be
withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans (other than Competitive Loans) and participations in Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other
amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Company (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim
for compensation under Section 2.14 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.16, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and
delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling such Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. 
 Section 2.19. Borrowing Subsidiaries. On or after the Effective Date, the Company may designate any Subsidiary of the Company as a Borrowing
Subsidiary by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement executed by such Subsidiary and the Company, and upon such delivery such Subsidiary shall for all purposes of this Agreement be a Borrowing Subsidiary and a party
to this Agreement until the Company shall have executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent a Borrowing Subsidiary Termination with respect to such Subsidiary, whereupon such Subsidiary shall cease to be a Borrowing Subsidiary and a party to
this Agreement. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, no Borrowing Subsidiary Termination will become effective as to any Borrowing Subsidiary at a time when any principal of or interest on any Loan to such Borrowing Subsidiary shall be
outstanding hereunder, provided that such Borrowing Subsidiary Termination shall be effective to terminate such Borrowing Subsidiary’s right to make further Borrowings under this Agreement. 
  

 46 

 ARTICLE 3

Material Adverse Effect, (b) will not violate any applicable law or regulation or the charter, by-laws or other organizational documents of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any order of any Governmental Authority, except for such
violations which, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, (c) will not violate or result in a default under any indenture, agreement or other instrument binding the Company or
any of its Subsidiaries or its assets, or give rise to a right thereunder to require any payment to be made by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, except for such violations and defaults which, individually or in the aggregate, could not
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, and (d) will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any asset of the Company or any of its Material Subsidiaries. 
  

 47 

 Section 3.04. Financial Condition; No Material Adverse Change. (a) The Company has heretofore
furnished to the Lenders its consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2006 and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, in each case reported
on by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, independent public accountants. Such financial statements (including notes thereto) present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position and results of operations and cash flows of the Company and its
consolidated Subsidiaries as of such date and for such period in accordance with GAAP. 
 (b) Since December 31, 2006, there has been no
material adverse change in the business, assets, operations, prospects (based, as to prospects, on the information available to the Company as of the Effective Date) or financial condition, of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

 Section 3.05. Properties. (a) Each of the Company and its Material Subsidiaries has good title to, or valid leasehold
interests in, all its real and personal property material to the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, except for minor defects in title that do not interfere with its ability to conduct its business as currently conducted
or to utilize such properties for their intended purposes. There are no Liens on any such property other than Liens permitted under Section 6.01. 
 (b) Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries owns, or is licensed to use, all trademarks, tradenames, copyrights, patents and other intellectual property material to the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries
taken as a whole, and the use thereof by the Company and its Subsidiaries does not infringe upon the rights of any other Person, except for any such infringements that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in
a Material Adverse Effect. 
 Section 3.06. Litigation and Environmental Matters. (a) There are no actions, suits or
proceedings by or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority pending against or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against or affecting the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (i) as to which there is a reasonable possibility of
an adverse determination and that, if adversely determined, could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect (other than the Disclosed Matters) or (ii) that purport to affect the legality,
validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement or the Transactions. 
 (b) Except for the Disclosed Matters
and except with respect to any other matters that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries (i) has failed to comply with any
Environmental Law or to obtain, maintain or comply with any permit, license or other approval required under any Environmental Law, (ii) has become subject to any Environmental Liability, (iii) has received notice of any claim with respect
to any Environmental Liability or (iv) knows of any basis for any Environmental Liability. 
  

 48 

 (c) Since the date of this Agreement, there has been no change in the status of the Disclosed Matters
that, individually or in the aggregate, has resulted in a Material Adverse Effect. 
 Section 3.07. Compliance with Laws and Agreements.
Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries is in compliance with all laws, regulations and orders of any Governmental Authority applicable to it or its property (including without limitation any “margin” rules or regulations promulgated
by the Board) and all indentures, agreements and other instruments binding upon it or its property, except where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

 Section 3.08. Investment and Holding Company Status. Neither the Company nor any of its Material Subsidiaries is (a) an
“investment company” as defined in, or subject to regulation under, the Investment Company Act of 1940 or (b) a “holding company” as defined in, or subject to regulation under, the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935.

 Section 3.09. Taxes. Each of the Company and each of its 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 and for which the Company or such Subsidiary,
as applicable, has set aside on its books adequate reserves or (b) to the extent that the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
 Section 3.10. ERISA. No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all other such ERISA Events for
which liability is reasonably expected to occur, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The present value of all accumulated benefit obligations under each Plan (based on the assumptions used for purposes of Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87) did not, as of the date of the most recent financial statements reflecting such amounts, exceed the fair market value of the assets of such Plan by an amount that could reasonably be expected to result
in a Material Adverse Effect, and the present value of all accumulated benefit obligations of all underfunded Plans (based on the assumptions used for purposes of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87) did not, as of the date of
the most recent financial statements reflecting such amounts, exceed the fair market value of the assets of all such underfunded Plans by an amount that could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 
 Section 3.11. Disclosure. None of the reports, financial statements, certificates or other written information furnished by or on behalf of any
Borrower to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the 

  

 49 

 
negotiation of this Agreement or any Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement or delivered hereunder or thereunder (as modified or supplemented by other information so
furnished or incorporated by reference therein), taken as a whole, as of the respective dates of such reports, financial statements, certificates and other written information, contains any material misstatement of fact or omits to state any
material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided that, with respect to forward-looking statements and projected financial information, the Company
represents only that such information was prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable at the time. 
 Section
3.12. Subsidiaries. Schedule 3.12 sets forth as of the date hereof a list of all Subsidiaries and the percentage ownership interest of the Company therein. As of the Effective Date, the shares of capital stock of such Subsidiaries will be
fully paid and non-assessable and such shares and other ownership interests so indicated by Schedule 3.12 will be owned by the Company, directly or indirectly, free and clear of all Liens.

 AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS 
 Until the Commitments have expired or have been

results of operations of the Company and its consolidated Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP consistently applied;

provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit any merger, consolidation, liquidation or dissolution permitted under Section 6.02; and provided, further, that neither the Company nor any of its Material Subsidiaries shall be
required to preserve any right or franchise if the board of directors of the Company or such Material Subsidiary shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries,
taken as a whole, and that the loss thereof is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole. 
 Section 5.04. Payment of Obligations. The Company will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, pay its obligations, including Tax liabilities, that, if not paid, could result in a Material Adverse Effect before the same shall

(which determination shall take into account the self-insurance practices customary among such companies, to the extent the Company has knowledge thereof without any investigation). 
  

 55 

 Section 5.06. Books and Records; Inspection Rights. The Company will, and will cause each of its
Material Subsidiaries to, keep proper books of record and account in accordance with GAAP (or, the case of a foreign Subsidiary, generally accepted accounting principles in the jurisdiction of organization of such foreign Subsidiary). The Company

parties.

laws, rules, regulations and orders of any Governmental Authority applicable to it or its property (including ERISA), except where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect. 
 Section 5.08. Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Loans will be used only for general corporate purposes,

 ARTICLE 8 
 THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT 
 Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints the
Administrative Agent as its agent 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, together with such actions and powers as are
reasonably incidental thereto. 
 The bank serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its
capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and such bank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with the Company
or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder. 
 The Administrative Agent shall not have
any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has
occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby that the Administrative
Agent is required to exercise in writing as directed by the Required Lenders, and (c) except as expressly set forth herein, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any
information relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action
taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until
written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by a Borrower or a Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in
or in connection 

  

 63 

 
with this Agreement or any Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement, (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, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of
this Agreement or any Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article 4 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required
to be delivered to the 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 believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any
statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for any Borrower),
independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. 
 The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by
the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall
apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as
activities as Administrative Agent. 
 Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided in this
paragraph, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders and the Company. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Company, to appoint a successor (and, at any time
when no Default shall have occurred and is continuing, with the prior written consent of the Company). If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring
Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any
such bank. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the
retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Company to a successor Administrative 

  

 64 

 
Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Company and such successor. After the Administrative
Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.03 shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Administrative Agent. 

Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents
and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender
and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any related agreement or any document furnished
hereunder or thereunder. 
 None of the Syndication Agents and the Documentation Agents, in their capacities as such, shall have any duties
or obligations of any kind under this Agreement. 
 ARTICLE 9 
 GUARANTEE 
 In order to induce the Lenders to extend credit hereunder, the Company hereby
irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, the Obligations. The Company further agrees that the due and punctual payment of the Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without
notice to or further assent from it, and that it will remain bound upon its Guarantee hereunder notwithstanding any such extension or renewal of any Obligation. 
 The Company waives presentment to, demand of payment from and protest to any Borrowing Subsidiary of any of the Obligations, and also waives notice of acceptance of its obligations and notice of protest for
nonpayment. The obligations of the Company hereunder shall not be affected by (a) the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against any Borrowing Subsidiary under the
provisions of this Agreement or otherwise; (b) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement, any Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement or any other agreement; or (c) the failure of any
Lender to exercise any right or remedy against any Borrowing Subsidiary. 
 The Company further agrees that its agreement hereunder
constitutes a promise of payment when due (whether or not any bankruptcy or similar proceeding shall have stayed the accrual or collection of any of the Obligations or operated as a discharge thereof) and not merely of collection, and waives any

  

 65 

 
right to require that any resort be had by any Lender to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of any Lender in favor of any Borrower or
any other person. 
 The obligations of the Company hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination
for any reason, and shall not be subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever, by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Obligations, any impossibility in the performance of the
Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of the Company hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to assert any
claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Agreement or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification in respect of any thereof, by any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Obligations, or by any
other act or omission which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of the Company or otherwise operate as a discharge of the Company or any other Borrower as a matter of law or equity. 
 The Company further agrees that its obligations hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or
any part thereof, of any Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by the Administrative Agent or any Lender upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower or otherwise. 
 In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have at law or in equity
against the Company by virtue hereof, upon the failure of any Borrowing Subsidiary to pay any Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, after notice of prepayment or otherwise, the Company hereby
promises to and will, upon receipt of written demand by the Administrative Agent, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash the amount of such unpaid Obligation. The Company further agrees that if payment in respect of any Obligation shall be due
in a currency other than dollars and/or at a place of payment other than New York and if, by reason of any Change in Law, disruption of currency or foreign exchange markets, war or civil disturbance or similar event, payment of such Obligation in
such currency or at such place of payment shall be impossible or, in the judgment of any applicable Lender, not consistent with the protection of its rights or interests, then, at the election of any applicable Lender, the Company shall make payment
of such Obligation in dollars (based upon the applicable exchange rate in effect on the date of payment) and/or in New York, and shall indemnify such Lender against any losses or expenses that it shall sustain as a result of such alternative
payment. 
 Upon payment by the Company of any Obligation, each Lender shall, in a reasonable manner, assign the amount of such Obligation
owed to it and so paid to the Company, such assignment to be pro tanto to the extent to which the 

  

 66 

 
Obligation in question was discharged by the Company, or make such disposition thereof as the Company shall direct (all without recourse to any Lender and
without any representation or warranty by any Lender). 
 Upon payment by the Company of any sums as provided above, all rights of Company
against any Borrowing Subsidiary arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation or otherwise shall in all respects be subordinated and junior in right of payment to the prior indefeasible payment in full of all the Obligations owed by
such Borrowing Subsidiary to the Lenders.

 (b) Notices and other communications to the Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic
communications pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices pursuant to Article 2 unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the applicable Lender. The

communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. All notices and other communications given to any party hereto in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been given on the date of receipt. 

Section 10.02. Waivers; Amendments. (a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or power
hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this
Agreement or consent to any departure by any Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific
instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice
or knowledge of such Default at the time. 
 (b) Neither this Agreement nor any Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement nor any provision hereof or
thereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Company and the Required Lenders or by the Company and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders (and, in
the case of a Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement, the applicable Borrowing Subsidiary); provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase or decrease the Commitment of any Lender (except for a ratable decrease in the Commitments of all
Lenders) without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected
thereby, (iii) postpone the 

  

 68 

 
scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or
excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (iv) change Section 2.17(b) or Section 2.17(c) in a manner that would alter
the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender, (v) change any of the provisions of this Section or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying
the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender or (vi) release the Company from, or limit or
condition, its obligations under Article 9, without the written consent of each Lender; provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent or the Swingline Lender
hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be. 
 Section 10.03.
Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. (a) The Company shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for
the Administrative Agent, in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of this Agreement or any Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the
provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated) and (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, including the fees, charges
and disbursements of no more than one counsel for the Administrative Agent and one counsel for the Lenders (unless representation of the Lenders by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflicts of interests among them,
in which case the Lenders shall have right to separate counsel, at the expense of the Company) in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement or any Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement, including its
rights under this Section, or the Loans made hereunder, including in connection with any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect thereof. 
 (b) The Company shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless
from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a
result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto or thereto of their respective obligations
hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other 

  

 69 

 
transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or the use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous
Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation,
investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be
available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. 
 (c) To the extent that the Company fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent or the Swingline Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally
agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid
amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent or the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such.

 (d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Borrower shall assert, and each Borrower hereby waives, any claim against any
Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement or
any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof. 
 (e) All amounts
due under this Section shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor. 
 Section 10.04. Successors and Assigns. (a) The
provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto (including any Borrowing Subsidiaries) and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) the Borrower may not assign
or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder or under any Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by any Borrower without such consent shall be
null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other
than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties 

  

 70 

 
of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 
 (b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and
obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of any of its Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) of: 
 (A) the Company, provided that no consent of the Company shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender,
an Approved Fund or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee; and 
 (B) the Administrative
Agent, provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund. 
 (ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions: 
 (A) except in the
case of any assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitments, the amount of each Commitment of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment
(determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Company and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent;
provided that no consent of the Company shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; 
 (B)
each partial assignment of any Commitment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations with respect to such Commitment (and the Loans made pursuant to such Commitment and at the
time owing to it) under this Agreement; 
 (C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative
Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; 
 (D) the assignee, if it shall
not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. 
 For the purposes of this
Section 10.04(b), the term “Approved Fund” has the following meaning: 
  

 71 

 “Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in
making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an
Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender. 
 (iii) Subject to acceptance and recording pursuant to
paragraph (b)(i) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the
rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of
an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.14,
Section 2.15, Section 2.16 and Section 10.03). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender shall assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder to any assignee (including an Affiliate of such Lender) that,
but for this sentence, would be entitled, immediately following such assignment, to claim a greater amount than such assigning Lender under Section 2.14, Section 2.15 and Section 2.16, such assignee shall not have the right to claim
such greater amount; provided that nothing in this sentence shall limit the right of any such assignee to make claims (x) for amounts not in excess of those that could have been claimed by the assigning Lender, (y) to the extent
such claims arise from one or more Changes in Law, or from the designation of one or more Borrowing Subsidiaries, or (z) from a change in the office, branch or other place of business from which any payment hereunder is made by any Borrower, in
each case after the date of such assignment. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph 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 and subject to the limitations set forth in, paragraph (c) of this Section. 
 (iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers shall maintain at one of its offices in The City of New York 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 amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the
Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender 

  

 72 

 
hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Company and any
Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 
 (v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed
Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in
paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the
Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. 
 (c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of any Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the Swingline Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a
portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of any of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall
remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and
directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right
to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree
to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 10.02(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the
benefits of Section 2.14, Section 2.15, and Section 2.16, to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each
Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.17(c) as though it were a Lender. 
 (ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.14, Section 2.15, and Section 2.16
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 Company’s prior written consent. A Participant
that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16 unless the Company is notified of 

  

 73 

 
the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrowers, to comply with Section 2.16(e) as though it
were a Lender. 
 (d) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this
Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any such pledge or assignment to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or
assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 
 (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”) of such Granting Lender,
identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Company, the option to provide to the Company all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to
the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.01 or Section 2.04, provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment to make any Loan by any SPC, (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to
provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof and (iii) all credit decisions (including without limitation any decisions with respect to amendments and waivers) will
continue to be made by the Granting Lender. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitments of the Granting Lender (and, if such Loan is a Competitive Loan, shall be deemed to utilize the Commitments of all the Lenders) to the
same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by the Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any payment under this Agreement for which a Lender would otherwise be liable, for so long as, and to the extent, the
related Granting Lender makes such payment. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding senior indebtedness of any SPC, it will
not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings or similar proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. In
addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Company or the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor,
assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to its Granting Lender in connection with liquidity and/or credit facilities to or for the account of such SPC to fund such Loans and (ii) subject to the provisions of Section 10.12,
disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of a surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC. 
  

 74 

 Section 10.05. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the
Borrowers herein and in the Borrowing Subsidiary Agreements and the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall
survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or
knowledge of any Default (other than a Default which has been waived in accordance with Section 10.02) or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as
the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Section 2.14,
Section 2.15, Section 2.16 and Section 10.03 and Article 8 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or
termination of the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof. 
 Section 10.06. Counterparts; Integration;
Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This
Agreement and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and
understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent
shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto (excluding any Borrowing Subsidiaries), and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto
(including any Borrowing Subsidiaries) and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this
Agreement. 
 Section 10.07. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a
particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 Section 10.08. Right
of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special,
time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held 

  

 75 

 
and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower against any of and all the amounts then due and
owing by the Borrower under this Agreement to such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies
(including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have. 
 Section 10.09. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of
Process. (a) This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York. 
 (b) Each
Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern
District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment
in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent or any
Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement against any Borrower or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction. 
 (c) Each Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action
or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient
forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court. 
 (d) Each party to this Agreement (including any Borrowing
Subsidiaries) irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 10.01. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

 Section 10.10. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT
IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT 

  

 76 

 
OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR
OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE
MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION. 
 Section 10.11. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents
used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement. 
 Section 10.12. 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 and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such
disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, (c) to the extent required by applicable
laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the
enforcement of rights hereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its
rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Company and its obligations, (g) with the consent of the Company or
(h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other
than the Company. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Company relating to the Company or its business, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent
or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Company. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such
Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. 
 Section 10.13. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are
treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the 

  

 77 

 
maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan
in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that
would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not
above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender. 
 Section 10.14. Conversion of Currencies. (a) If, for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum owing
hereunder in one currency into another currency, each party hereto (including any Borrowing Subsidiary) agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal
banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction the first currency could be purchased with such other currency on the Business Day immediately preceding the day on which final judgment is given. 
 (b) The obligations of each Borrower in respect of any sum due to any party hereto or any holder of the obligations owing hereunder (the “Applicable
Creditor”) shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than the currency in which such sum is stated to be due hereunder (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent
that, on the Business Day following receipt by the Applicable Creditor of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Applicable Creditor may in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction purchase the
Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency; if the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Applicable Creditor in the Agreement Currency, such Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and
notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Applicable Creditor against such loss. The obligations of the Borrowers contained in this Section 10.14 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of all other amounts
owing hereunder. 
 Section 10.15. European Economic and Monetary Union. (a) Definitions. In this Section 10.15 and
in each other provision of this Agreement to which reference is made in this Section 10.15 expressly or impliedly, the following terms have the meanings given to them in this Section 10.15: 
 “Euro” means the single currency of Participating Member States; and 
 “Participating Member States” means those members of the European Union from time to time which adopt a single, shared
currency. 
  

 78 

 (b) Loans. Any Loan in the currency of a Participating Member State shall be made in Euros.

 (c) Payments to the Administrative Agent. Sections 2.06 and 2.17 shall be construed so that, in relation to the payment of any
amount of Euros, such amount shall be made available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available, freely transferable, cleared funds to such account with such bank in Frankfurt am Main, Germany (or such other principal financial center in
such Participating Member State) as the Administrative Agent may from time to time nominate for this purpose. 
 (d) Change of
Currency. Each obligation of any Borrower to make a payment denominated in the national currency unit of any member state of the European Union that adopts the Euro as its lawful currency after the date hereof shall be redenominated into Euro at
the time of such adoption (in accordance with the EMU Legislation). If, in relation to the currency of any such member state, the basis of accrual of interest expressed in this Agreement in respect of that currency shall be inconsistent with any
convention or practice in the London interbank market for the basis of accrual of interest in respect of the Euro, such expressed basis shall be replaced by such convention or practice with effect from the date on which such member state adopts the
Euro as its lawful currency; provided that if any Borrowing in the currency of such member state is outstanding immediately prior to such date, such replacement shall take effect, with respect to such Borrowing, at the end of the then current
Interest Period. 
 (e) Each provision of this Agreement shall be subject to such reasonable changes of construction as the Administrative
Agent may from time to time specify to be appropriate to reflect the adoption of the Euro by any member state of the European Union and any relevant market conventions or practices relating to the Euro. 
 (f) Each provision of this Agreement also shall be subject to such reasonable changes of construction as the Administrative Agent may from time to time
specify to be appropriate to reflect a change in currency of any other country and any relevant market conventions or practices relating to the change in currency. 
 Section 10.16. USA Patriot Act. Each Lender hereby notifies the Company that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)), it is
required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Company, which information includes the name and address of the Company and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Company in accordance with said Act.

 OPINION OF COUNSEL FOR BORROWING SUBSIDIARY 
  

			
		  	[Effective Date]

 To the Lenders and the Administrative 
   Agent Referred to Below 
 c/o JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as 
   Administrative Agent 
 270 Park Avenue 
 New York, New York 10017 
 Dear Sirs: 
 We have acted as counsel for [                    ],
a [            ] corporation (the “Borrower”), in connection with (i) the Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement dated as of _________ (the “Agreement”),
among The Dun & Bradstreet Corporation, (the “Company”), the Borrower and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent and (ii) the $500,000,000 Credit Agreement dated as of April 19, 2007 (the “Credit
Agreement”), among the Company, the Borrowing Subsidiaries party thereto, the banks and other financial institutions identified therein as Lenders, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ Trust
Company and Citibank, N.A., as Syndication Agents, and The Bank of New York and SunTrust Bank as Documentation Agents. Terms defined in the Credit Agreement are used herein with the same meanings. 
 We have examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such documents, corporate records, certificates of public
officials and other instruments and have conducted such other investigations of fact and law as we have deemed necessary or advisable for purposes of this opinion. 
 Upon the basis of the foregoing, we are of the opinion that: 
 1. The Borrower (a) is a corporation
duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of [            ], (b) has all requisite corporate power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted
and (c) except where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, is qualified to do business in, and is in good standing in, every jurisdiction where such
qualification is required. 
 2. The Transactions are within the Borrower’s corporate powers and have been duly authorized by all
necessary corporate and, if required, action of the 

  

 C-1 

 
stockholders of the Borrower. The Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Borrower and the Agreement and the Credit Agreement each constitutes
a valid and legally binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable in accordance with its respective terms, subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws relating to or
affecting creditors’ rights generally, general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing and the effects of the possible judicial application of foreign
laws or foreign governmental or judicial action affecting creditors’ rights. 
 3. The Transactions (a) do not require any consent
or approval of, registration or filing with, or any other action by, any Governmental Authority, except such as have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect and except for such consents, approvals, registrations, filings and other
actions the failure to obtain or make could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, (b) will not violate any applicable New York law or regulation or the Delaware General Corporation
Law or the charter or by-laws of the Borrower or any order of any Governmental Authority applicable to the Borrower, except for such violations which, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect, (c) will not violate or result in a default under any indenture, agreement or other instrument binding upon the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or its assets, except for such violations and defaults which, individually or in the
aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, and (d) will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any asset of the Borrower or any of its Material Subsidiaries. 
 [4. There is no income, stamp or other tax of the government of [jurisdiction of Borrower], or any
taxing authority thereof or therein, imposed by or in the nature of withholding or otherwise, which is imposed on any payment to be made by the Borrower pursuant to the Credit Agreement or its Notes, or imposed on or by virtue of the execution,
delivery or enforcement of the Agreement, the Credit Agreement or its Notes.]1 
 5. (a) The Borrower is not an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended and
(b) neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is a “holding company” as defined in, or subject to regulation under, the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935. 
 [Qualifications and exceptions reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent] 

	 1
	 Given when Borrowing Subsidiary is a foreign Subsidiary. 

  

 C-2 

 We are members of the bar of the
[            ] and the foregoing opinion is limited to the laws of the [            ]. This opinion is rendered solely to you in
connection with the above matter. This opinion may not be relied upon by you for any other purpose or relied upon by any other Person (other than your successors and assigns as Lenders and Persons that acquire participations in your Loans) without
our prior written consent.
