 (b) The Borrower shall repay all outstanding Revolving Loans on the Revolving

$1,000,000, such lesser amount) and (y) in the case of Eurodollar Loans, $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; provided, that the Swingline Lender may request, on behalf of the Borrower, borrowings under the

 (a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swingline Lender agrees to make a portion of the credit otherwise available to the Borrower under the
Revolving Commitments from time to time after the Closing Date and during the Revolving Commitment Period by making swing line loans (“Swingline Loans”) to the Borrower; provided that (i) the aggregate principal amount
of Swingline Loans outstanding at any time shall not exceed the Swingline Commitment then in effect and (ii) the Borrower shall not request, and the Swingline Lender shall not make, any Swingline Loan if, after giving effect to the making of
such Swingline Loan, the aggregate amount of the Available Revolving Commitments would be less than zero. During the Revolving Commitment Period, the Borrower may use the Swingline Commitment by borrowing, repaying and reborrowing, all in accordance
with the terms and conditions hereof. Swingline Loans shall be ABR Loans only. 
  
 (b) The Borrower shall repay to the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan on the earlier of the Revolving Termination Date and the first date after such Swingline Loan is made that
is the 15th or last day of a calendar month and is at least two Business Days after such Swingline Loan is made; provided that on each date that a Revolving Loan is borrowed, the Borrower shall repay all Swingline Loans then outstanding.

 (a) To request a Swingline Loan, the
Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (confirmed by telecopy of a Borrowing Request), not later than 2:00 P.M., New York City time, on the day (which shall be a Business Day during the Revolving Commitment
Period) of a proposed Swingline Loan. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day) and amount of the requested Swingline Loan. The Administrative Agent will promptly advise the Swingline
Lender of any such notice received from the Borrower. The Swingline Lender shall make each Swingline Loan available to the Borrower by means of a credit to the general deposit account of the Borrower with the Swingline Lender (or, in the case of a
Swingline Loan made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 3.5, by remittance to the Issuing Bank) by 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on the requested date of such Swingline Loan. Each borrowing
under the Swingline Commitment shall be in an amount equal to $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof. 
  

 -37- 

 (b) The Swingline Lender, at any time and from time to time in its sole and absolute discretion may, on
behalf of the Borrower (which hereby irrevocably directs the Swingline Lender to act on its behalf), on one Business Day’s notice given by the Swingline Lender no later than 2:00 P.M., New York City time, request each Revolving Lender to
make, and each Revolving Lender hereby agrees to make, a Revolving Loan, in an amount equal to such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Percentage of the aggregate amount of the Swingline Loans; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, no
Revolving Lender shall be obligated to make any Revolving Loan if after giving effect to the making of such Revolving Loan the outstanding amount of Revolving Extensions of Credit of such Lender exceed such Lender’s Revolving Commitment (the
“Refunded Swingline Loans”) outstanding on the date of such notice, to repay the Swingline Lender. Each Revolving Lender shall make the amount of such Revolving Loan available to the Administrative Agent at the Funding Office in
immediately available funds, not later than 10:00 A.M., New York City time, one Business Day after the date of such notice. The proceeds of such Revolving Loans shall be immediately made available by the Administrative Agent to the Swingline Lender
for application by the Swingline Lender to the repayment of the Refunded Swingline Loans. The Borrower irrevocably authorizes the Swingline Lender to charge the Borrower’s accounts with the Administrative Agent (up to the amount available in
each such account) in order to immediately pay the amount of such Refunded Swingline Loans to the extent amounts received from the Revolving Lenders are not sufficient to repay in full such Refunded Swingline Loans. 
  
 (c) If prior to the time a Revolving Loan would have otherwise been made
pursuant to Section 2.7(b), one of the events described in Section 8.1(g) shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the Borrower or if for any other reason, as determined by the Swingline Lender in its sole
discretion, Revolving Loans may not be made as contemplated by Section 2.7(b), each Revolving Lender shall, on the date such Revolving Loan was to have been made pursuant to the notice referred to in Section 2.7(b), purchase
for cash an undivided participating interest in the then outstanding Swingline Loans by paying to the Swingline Lender an amount (the “Swingline Participation Amount”) equal to (i) such Revolving Lender’s Revolving
Percentage times (ii) the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Swingline Loans then outstanding that were to have been repaid with such Revolving Loans. 
  
 (d) Whenever, at any time after the Swingline Lender has received from any Revolving Lender such Lender’s Swingline
Participation Amount, the Swingline Lender receives any payment on account of the Swingline Loans, the Swingline Lender will distribute to such Lender its Swingline Participation Amount (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to
reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s participating interest was outstanding and funded and, in the case of principal and interest payments, to reflect such Lender’s pro rata portion of such payment if such
payment is not sufficient to pay the principal of and interest on all Swingline Loans then due); provided, however, that in the event that such payment received by the Swingline Lender is required to be returned, such Revolving Lender
will return to the Swingline Lender any portion thereof previously distributed to it by the Swingline Lender. 
  
 (e) Each Revolving Lender’s obligation to make the Loans referred to in Section 2.7(b) and to purchase participating interests pursuant
to Section 2.7(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Revolving Lender or the Borrower may have
against the Swingline Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default or the failure to satisfy any of the other conditions specified in
Section 5; (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of the Borrower; (iv) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Revolving Lender; or
(v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

 (b) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent the fees in the amounts and on the dates previously agreed to in writing by the Borrower and

arrears on each Fee Payment Date after the issuance date. 
  
 (d)
In addition to the foregoing fees, the Borrower shall pay or reimburse the Issuing Lender for such normal and customary costs and expenses (including issuance fees) as are incurred or charged by the Issuing Lender in issuing, negotiating, effecting
payment under, amending or otherwise administering any Letter of Credit. 
  
 (e) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the Issuing Lender, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of
facility fees and participation fees, to the Lenders. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances. 
  
 2.9 Termination or Reduction of Revolving Commitments. The Borrower shall have the right, upon not less than three Business Days’ notice to
the Administrative Agent, to terminate the Revolving Commitments or, from time to time, to reduce the amount of the Revolving Commitments; provided that no such termination or reduction of Revolving Commitments shall be permitted if, after
giving effect thereto and to any prepayments of the Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans made on the effective date thereof, the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit would exceed the Total Revolving Commitments. Any such reduction shall be in an
amount equal to $1,000,000, a whole multiple thereof, or the remaining aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments, and shall reduce permanently the Revolving Commitments then in effect. 
  
 2.10 Optional Prepayments. The Borrower may at any time and from time
to time prepay the Loans, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, upon irrevocable notice delivered to the Administrative Agent no later than 2:00 P.M., New York City time, three Business Days prior thereto, in the case of Eurodollar Loans,
and no later than 2:00 P.M., New York City time, one Business Day prior thereto, in the case of ABR Loans, which notice shall specify the date and amount of prepayment, the installment or installments of the respective tranches of the Loans to be
repaid and whether the prepayment is of Eurodollar Loans or ABR Loans (it being understood that the Borrower may elect to prepay one tranche of Term Loans without prepaying another); provided, that in the case of Swingline Loans notice may be
given no later than 2:00 p.m. New York City time on the date of prepayment; and provided further that if a Eurodollar Loan is prepaid on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower shall also pay

given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with (except in the case of Revolving Loans that
are ABR Loans and Swingline Loans) accrued interest to such date on the amount prepaid. Partial prepayments of a tranche of Term Loans or of Revolving Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple thereof. Partial
prepayments of Swingline Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $100,000 or a whole multiple thereof. 
  
 2.11 Mandatory Prepayments and Commitment Reductions. 
  
 (a) If any Redeemable Preferred Interests or Debt shall be issued or incurred by any Group Member (excluding any Debt incurred in accordance with
Section 7.2 (other than Section 7.2(q) and, to the extent clause (x) thereof is not complied with, Section 7.2(l)) or any initial cash proceeds that are related to a financing of a fixed principal amount of
Receivables Assets or any initial incremental cash proceeds that are related to financing an increased fixed principal amount of Receivables Assets shall be received by Borrower or any of its subsidiaries in connection with a Permitted Receivables
Financing, an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof shall be applied on the date of such issuance or incurrence toward the prepayment of the Term Loans and the Revolving Loans as set forth in Section 2.11(d). If any
Capital Stock other than Redeemable Preferred Interests or Excluded Issuances shall be issued by the Borrower, an amount equal to 50% of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof shall be applied on the date of such issuance toward the prepayment of the Term
Loans and the Revolving Loans as set forth in Section 2.11(d); provided that this sentence shall not be applicable to any issuance of Capital Stock of the Borrower if the Leverage Ratio as of the most recent Measurement Period was
less than 3.25 to 1.00. 
  
 (b) If on any date any Group Member
shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale or Recovery Event then, unless a Reinvestment Notice shall be delivered in respect thereof, such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied on such date toward the prepayment of the Term Loans and the
Revolving Loans as set forth in Section 2.11(d); provided, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, on each Reinvestment Prepayment Date, an amount equal to the Reinvestment Prepayment Amount with respect to the relevant Reinvestment
Event shall be applied toward the prepayment of the Term Loans and the Revolving Loans as set forth in Section 2.11(d). 
  
 (c) If, for any Fiscal Year of the Borrower commencing with the Fiscal Year ending December 31, 2005, there shall be Excess Cash Flow, the Borrower
shall, on the relevant Excess Cash Flow Application Date, apply the ECF Percentage of such Excess Cash Flow toward the prepayment of the Term Loans and the reduction of the Revolving Commitments as set forth in Section 2.11(d). Each such
prepayment and commitment reduction shall be made on a date (an “Excess Cash Flow Application Date”) no later than five days after the earlier of (i) the date on which the financial statements of the Borrower referred to in
Section 6.1(b), for the fiscal year with respect to which such prepayment is made, are required to be delivered to the Lenders and (ii) the date such financial statements are actually delivered. 
  
 (d) Amounts to be applied in connection with prepayments made pursuant to
this Section 2.11 shall be applied, first, to the prepayment of the Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.17(b) and, second, to reduce the Swingline Loans and then Revolving Loans without a permanent reduction
of the Revolving Commitments. The application of any prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall be made, first, to ABR Loans and, second, to Eurodollar Loans. Each prepayment of the Loans under this
Section 2.11 (except in the case of Revolving Loans that are ABR Loans and Swingline Loans) shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the amount prepaid. 
  
 (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 2.11(d)
or 2.17, with respect to the amount of any mandatory prepayment described in Section 2.11 that is allocated to Tranche B Term Loans (such amount, the “Tranche B Prepayment Amount”), at any time when Tranche A Term
Loans remain outstanding, the Borrower will, in lieu of applying such amount to the prepayment of Tranche B 

  

 -40- 

 
Term Loans, as provided in Section 2.11(d) above, on the date specified in Section 2.11 for such prepayment, give the Administrative
Agent telephonic notice (promptly confirmed in writing) requesting that the Administrative Agent prepare and provide to each Tranche B Lender a notice (each, a “Prepayment Option Notice”) as described below. As promptly as
practicable after receiving such notice from the Borrower, the Administrative Agent will send to each Tranche B Lender a Prepayment Option Notice, which shall be in the form of Exhibit G, and shall include an offer by the Borrower to prepay
on the date (each a “Mandatory Prepayment Date”) that is 10 Business Days after the date of the Prepayment Option Notice, the relevant Term Loans of such Lender by an amount equal to the portion of the Tranche B Prepayment Amount
indicated in such Lender’s Prepayment Option Notice as being applicable to such Lender’s Tranche B Term Loans. On the Mandatory Prepayment Date, (i) the Borrower shall pay to the relevant Tranche B Lenders the aggregate amount
necessary to prepay that portion of the outstanding relevant Term Loans as described above in respect of which such Lenders have accepted prepayment (it being understood that a failure to respond to a Prepayment Option Notice shall be deemed an
acceptance of the prepayment referenced therein) and (ii) the Borrower shall pay to the Tranche A Lenders an amount equal to the portion of the Tranche B Prepayment Amount not accepted by the relevant Lenders, and such amount shall be applied
to the prepayment of the Tranche A Term Loans; provided that if after the application of amounts pursuant to clause (ii), any portion of the Tranche B Prepayment Amount not accepted by the Tranche B Term Loan Lenders shall remain, such amount shall
be used to prepay the Tranche B Term Loans on a pro rata basis. 
  
 (f) Revolving Loan Prepayments. 
  
 (i) In the event of the termination of all the Revolving Commitments, the Borrower shall, on the date of such termination, repay or prepay all its outstanding Revolving Loans and all outstanding Swingline Loans and
replace all outstanding Letters of Credit or cash collateralize all outstanding Letters of Credit in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 3.10. 
  
 (ii) In the event of any partial reduction of the Revolving Commitments, then (x) at or prior to the
effective date of such reduction, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Revolving Lenders of the sum of the Revolving Extensions of Credit after giving effect thereto and (y) if the sum of the Revolving Extensions of Credit
would exceed the aggregate amount of Revolving Commitments after giving effect to such reduction, then the Borrower shall, on the date of such reduction, first, repay or prepay Swingline Loans, second, repay or prepay Revolving Loans
and third, replace outstanding Letters of Credit or cash collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 3.10, in an aggregate amount sufficient to eliminate such excess.

  
 (iii) In the event that the sum of all
Lenders’ Revolving Extensions of Credit exceeds the Revolving Commitments then in effect, the Borrower shall, without notice or demand, immediately first, repay or prepay Swingline Loans, second, repay or prepay Revolving Loans,
and third, replace outstanding Letters of Credit or cash collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 3.10, in an aggregate amount sufficient to eliminate such excess.

  
 (iv) In the event that the aggregate LC
Obligations exceeds the LC Commitment then in effect, the Borrower shall, without notice or demand, immediately replace outstanding Letters of Credit or cash collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit in accordance with the procedures set forth in
Section 3.10, in an aggregate amount sufficient to eliminate such excess. 
  
 (g) Prepayment Premium. Any prepayment of the Tranche B Term Loans prior to June 15, 2006 with the proceeds of an offering or incurrence of Debt (other than a Permitted Receivables Financing) shall be
accompanied by a premium equal to 1% of the aggregate principal amount of the Tranche B Term Loans prepaid. 
  

 -41- 

 2.12 Conversion and Continuation Options. 
  
 (a) The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert Eurodollar Loans to
ABR Loans by giving the Administrative Agent prior irrevocable notice of such election pursuant to an Interest Election Request no later than 2:00 P.M., New York City time, on the Business Day preceding the proposed conversion date, provided
that any such conversion of Eurodollar Loans may only be made on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert ABR Loans to Eurodollar Loans by giving the Administrative Agent prior
irrevocable notice of such election no later than 2:00 P.M., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding the proposed conversion date (which notice shall specify the length of the initial Interest Period therefor), provided that
no ABR Loan under a particular Facility may be converted into a Eurodollar Loan when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent or the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of such Facility have determined in its
or their sole discretion not to permit such conversions. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof. 
  
 (b) Any Eurodollar Loan may be continued as such upon the expiration of the then current Interest Period with respect
thereto by the Borrower giving irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent pursuant to an Interest Election Request, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the term “Interest Period” set forth in Section 1.1, of the
length of the next Interest Period to be applicable to such Loans, provided that no Eurodollar Loan under a particular Facility may be continued as such when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent has
or the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of such Facility have determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit such continuations, and provided, further, that if the Borrower shall fail to give any required notice as
described above in this paragraph or if such continuation is not permitted pursuant to the preceding proviso such Loans shall be automatically converted to ABR Loans on the last day of such then expiring Interest Period. Upon receipt of any such
notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof. 
  
 2.13 Limitations on Eurodollar Tranches. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all borrowings, conversions and continuations of Eurodollar Loans and all selections of Interest Periods
shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, (a) after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of the Eurodollar Loans comprising each Eurodollar Tranche shall be equal to $5,000,000 or a whole multiple
of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (b) no more than fifteen Eurodollar Tranches shall be outstanding at any one time. 
  
 2.14 Interest Rates and Payment Dates. 
  
 (a) Each Eurodollar Loan shall bear interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar
Rate determined for such day plus the Applicable Margin. 
  
 (b)
Each ABR Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the ABR plus the Applicable Margin. 
  
 (c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under Section 8.1(a), (b) or (g), if all or a portion of
the principal amount of any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation or any interest payable on any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation or any commitment fee or other amount payable hereunder shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by
acceleration or 

  

 -42- 

 
otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the greater or (i) the rate then applicable to ABR Loans under the
relevant Facility plus 2% (or, in the case of any such other amounts that do not relate to a particular Facility, the rate then applicable to ABR Loans under the Revolving Facility plus 2%) and (ii) the actual rate applicable to
such amount plus 2%, from the date of such non-payment until such amount is paid in full (after as well as before judgment). 
  
 (d) Interest shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, provided that interest accruing pursuant to paragraph (c) of this
Section shall be payable from time to time on demand. 
  
 2.15
Computation of Interest and Fees. 
  
 (a) Interest and
fees payable pursuant hereto shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed, except that, with respect to ABR Loans the rate of interest on which is calculated on the basis of the Prime Rate, the interest thereon
shall be calculated on the basis of a 365- (or 366-, as the case may be) day year for the actual days elapsed. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the relevant Lenders of each determination of a Eurodollar
Rate. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the ABR or the Eurocurrency Reserve Requirements shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change becomes effective. The Administrative
Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the relevant Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each such change in interest rate. 
  
 (b) Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on the
Borrower and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Borrower, deliver to the Borrower a statement showing the quotations used by the Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate
pursuant to Section 2.14(a). 
  
 2.16 Inability to
Determine Interest Rate. If prior to the first day of any Interest Period: 
  
 (a) the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower) that, by reason
of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period, or 
  
 (b) the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of the relevant Facility that the
Eurodollar Rate determined or to be determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (as conclusively certified by such Lenders) of making or maintaining their affected Loans during such Interest
Period, 
  
 the Administrative Agent shall give telecopy or telephonic notice
thereof to the Borrower and the relevant Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter. If such notice is given, (x) any Eurodollar Loans under the relevant Facility requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as ABR
Loans, (y) any Loans under the relevant Facility that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to Eurodollar Loans shall be continued as ABR Loans and (z) any outstanding Eurodollar Loans under the relevant
Facility shall be converted, on the last day of the then-current Interest Period, to ABR Loans. Until such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent, no further Eurodollar Loans under the relevant Facility shall be made or continued as
such, nor shall the Borrower have the right to convert Loans under the relevant Facility to Eurodollar Loans. 
  

 -43- 

 2.17 Pro Rata Treatment and Payments. 
  
 (a) Each borrowing by the Borrower from the Lenders hereunder, each payment
by the Borrower on account of any commitment fee and any reduction of the Commitments of the Lenders shall be made pro rata according to the respective Tranche A Term Percentages, Tranche B Term Percentages or Revolving Percentages, as the
case may be, of the relevant Lenders. 
  
 (b) Each payment
(including each prepayment) by the Borrower on account of principal of and interest on the Term Loans shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Term Loans then held by the Term Lenders
(except as otherwise provided in Section 2.11(e) and except that an optional prepayment pursuant to Section 2.10 need only be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Term
Loans of the applicable tranche being prepaid then held by the Term Lenders). The amount of each principal prepayment of the Term Loans shall be applied to reduce the then remaining installments of the Tranche A Term Loans and Tranche B
Term Loans, as the case may be, pro rata based upon the respective then remaining principal amounts thereof. Amounts prepaid on account of the Term Loans may not be reborrowed. 
  
 (c) Each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrower on account of
principal of and interest on the Revolving Loans shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Revolving Loans then held by the Revolving Lenders. 
  
 (d) All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower
hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 1:00 P.M., New York City time, on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent, for the account
of the Lenders, at the Funding Office, in Dollars and in immediately available funds. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to the Lenders promptly upon receipt in like funds as received. If any payment hereunder (other than
payments on the Eurodollar Loans) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day. If any payment on a Eurodollar Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a
Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately
preceding Business Day. In the case of any extension of any payment of principal pursuant to the preceding two sentences, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension. 
  
 (e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by
any Lender prior to a borrowing that such Lender will not make the amount that would constitute its share of such borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender is making such amount available
to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by the required time on the
Borrowing Date therefor, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent, on demand, such amount with interest thereon, at a rate equal to the greater of (i) the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (ii) a rate determined by the
Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the Administrative Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to
any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such Lender’s share of such borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three
Business Days after such Borrowing Date, the Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to ABR Loans under the relevant Facility, on demand, from the Borrower.

  

 -44- 

 (f) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by the Borrower prior to the date
of any payment due to be made by the Borrower hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower is making such payment, and the Administrative Agent may, but
shall not be required to, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Lenders their respective pro rata shares of a corresponding amount. If such payment is not made to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower within three
Business Days after such due date, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover, on demand, from each Lender to which any amount which was made available pursuant to the preceding sentence, such amount with interest thereon at the rate per
annum equal to the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against the Borrower. 
  
 2.18 Requirements of Law. 
  

(a) If the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by any Lender with any
request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof: 
  
 (i) shall subject any Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any Application or
any Eurodollar Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof (except for Non-Excluded Taxes covered by Section 2.19 and changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of such
Lender); 
  
 (ii) shall impose, modify or hold
applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by,
any office of such Lender that is not otherwise included in the determination of the Eurodollar Rate; or 
  
 (iii) shall impose on such Lender any other condition; 
  
 and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender, by an amount that such Lender deems to be material, of
making, converting into, continuing or maintaining Eurodollar Loans or issuing or participating in Letters of Credit, or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, the Borrower shall promptly pay such
Lender, upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable. If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this paragraph, it shall promptly
notify the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled. 
  
 (b) If any Lender shall have determined that the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation
or application thereof or compliance by such Lender or any corporation Controlling such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority made subsequent to the
date hereof shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or under or in respect of any Letter of 

  

 -45- 

 
Credit to a level below that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration
such Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time, after submission by such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative
Agent) of a written request therefor, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such corporation for such reduction. 
  
 (c) Each request by a Lender for the payment of an additional amount under this Section 2.18 shall be
accompanied by a certificate showing in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the allocation (which shall be reasonable) thereof. Such certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted by any Lender to the
Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for
any amounts incurred more than six months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided that, if the circumstances giving rise to such claim have a
retroactive effect, then such six-month period shall be extended to include the period of such retroactive effect. The obligations of the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans
and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
  
 2.19 Taxes.

  
 (a) All payments made by any Loan Party under this Agreement
or any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any Taxes, excluding overall net income taxes and franchise taxes (imposed in lieu of net income taxes) imposed on the
Administrative Agent or any Lender by a jurisdiction as a result of the recipient being organized or having its principal office or, in the case of any Lender, having its applicable lending office in such jurisdiction. If any such non-excluded Taxes
(“Non-Excluded Taxes”) or Other Taxes are required to be withheld or deducted from any amounts payable (which shall include deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) to the Administrative Agent or any
Lender hereunder, the amounts so payable to the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to the Administrative Agent or such Lender (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes) interest or
any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Agreement, provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be required to increase any such amounts payable to any Lender with respect to any
Non-Excluded Taxes (i) that are attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the requirements of paragraph (e) or (f) of this Section or (ii) that are United States federal withholding taxes imposed on amounts
payable to such Lender at the time such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement (“Additional Excluded Taxes”), except to the extent that such Lender’s assignor (if any) was entitled, at the time of assignment, to receive
additional amounts from the Borrower with respect to such Non-Excluded Taxes pursuant to this paragraph; provided that this subclause (ii) shall not apply to any Tax imposed on a Lender in connection with an interest or participation in
any Loan or other obligation that such Lender was required to acquire pursuant to Section 11.7. 
  
 (b) In addition, the Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 
  
 (c) The Borrower and the Guarantors shall indemnify the Administrative Agent,
or the affected Lender, as applicable, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes, but excluding Additional Excluded Taxes (including Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or
attributable to amounts payable under this Section, but excluding Additional Excluded Taxes) paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may 

  

 -46- 

 
be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes were
correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative
Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
  
 (d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the 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 “U.S. Person” as defined in
Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased)
two copies of either U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI, or, in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of
“portfolio interest”, a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit J and a Form W-8BEN, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, properly completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Lender claiming complete
exemption from, or a reduced rate of, U.S. federal withholding tax on all payments by the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Such forms shall be delivered by each Non-U.S. Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to
this Agreement (or, in the case of any Participant, on or before the date such Participant purchases the related participation). In addition, each Non-U.S. Lender shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form
previously delivered by such Non-U.S. Lender. Each Non-U.S. Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered certificate to the Borrower (or any other form of
certification adopted by the U.S. taxing authorities for such purpose). Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph, a Non-U.S. Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this paragraph that such Non-U.S. Lender is not
legally able to deliver. 
  
 (f) A Lender that is entitled to an
exemption from or reduction of non-U.S. withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the
Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such
payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate, provided that such Lender is legally entitled to complete, execute and deliver such documentation and in such Lender’s sole judgment such completion, execution or submission
would not be materially disadvantageous to such Lender and would not materially prejudice the legal position of such Lender. 
  
 (g) If the Administrative Agent or any Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes
as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.19, it shall pay over such refund to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity
payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 2.19 with respect to the Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), 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 the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the
amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any 

  

 -47- 

 
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. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in no event will any Lender be required to pay any amount to the Borrower the payment of which would place
such Lender in a less favorable net after-tax position than such Lender would have been in if the additional amounts giving rise to such refund of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes had never been paid. This paragraph 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 the Borrower or any other Person. 
  
 (h) The agreements in this Section shall survive the termination of this
Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
  
 2.20 Indemnity. The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender for, and to hold each Lender harmless from, any loss or expense that such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by the
Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of Eurodollar Loans after the Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) default by the Borrower in making any
prepayment of or conversion from Eurodollar Loans after the Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or (c) the making of a prepayment of Eurodollar Loans on a day that is not the last day of an
Interest Period with respect thereto. Such indemnification may include an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the amount so prepaid, or not so borrowed, converted or continued, for the
period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow, convert or continue to the last day of such Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the Interest Period that would have commenced on the date
of such failure) in each case at the applicable rate of interest for such Loans provided for herein (excluding, however, the Applicable Margin included therein, if any) over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such
Lender) that would have accrued to such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank eurodollar market. A certificate as to any amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted
to the Borrower by any Lender shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
  
 2.21 Change of Lending Office. Each Lender agrees that, upon the
occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.18 or 2.19(a) with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender)
to designate another lending office for any Loans affected by such event with the object of avoiding the consequences of such event; provided, that such designation is made on terms that, in the sole judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender
and its lending office(s) to suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, and provided, further, that nothing in this Section shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the rights of any Lender pursuant
to Section 2.18 or 2.19(a). 
  
 2.22

hereunder, with a replacement financial institution or (c) is replaced pursuant to the third paragraph of Section 11.1; provided that (i) such replacement does not conflict with any Requirement of Law, (ii) no Event
of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, (iii) if applicable, prior to any such replacement, such Lender shall not have taken appropriate action under Section 2.21 so as to eliminate the
continued need for payment of amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.18 or 2.19(a), (iv) the replacement financial institution shall purchase, at par, all Loans and 
  

 -48- 

 other amounts owing to such replaced Lender on or prior to the date of replacement, (v) the Borrower shall be liable
to such replaced Lender under Section 2.20 if any Eurodollar Loan owing to such replaced Lender shall be purchased other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto, (vi) the replacement financial institution, if
not already a Lender, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (vii) the replaced Lender shall be obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.6 (provided that the
Borrower shall be obligated to pay the registration and processing fee referred to therein) and by its execution of this Agreement each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as its agent in executing any documents to replace such
Lender in accordance with this Section 2.22, (viii) until such time as such replacement shall be consummated, the Borrower shall pay all additional amounts (if any) required pursuant to Section 2.18 or 2.19(a), as
the case may be, and (ix) any such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against the replaced Lender. 
  

	2.23	Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. 

  
 (a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal
amount of each Revolving Loan on the Revolving Termination Date, (ii) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.3 and (iii) to the Swingline Lender the then unpaid
principal amount of each Swingline Loan in accordance with Section 2.6(b). 
  
 (b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the
amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. 
  
 (c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Facility and Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the
amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each
Lender’s share thereof. 
  
 (d) The entries made in the
accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section shall be 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 the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
  
 (e) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory
note. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form approved by the
Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 11.6) 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). 
  
 2.24 Increase in Commitments. 
  
 (a) The Borrower may by written notice to the Administrative Agent elect to request (x) prior to the Revolving Termination Date, an increase to the
existing Revolving Commitments and/or (y) the establishment of one or more new term loan Commitments (each, an “Incremental Term Loan  

  

 -49- 

 
Commitment”) by an amount not in excess of $500,000,000 in the aggregate (for both of clauses (x) and (y)) and not less than $100,000,000
individually. Each such notice shall specify (i) the date (each, an “Increase Effective Date”) on which Borrower proposes that the increased or new Commitments shall be effective, which shall be a date not fewer than 10
Business Days after the date on which such notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent and (ii) the identity of each Assignee to whom Borrower proposes any portion of such increased or new Commitments be allocated and the amounts of such
allocations; provided that any existing Lender approached to provide all or a portion of the increased or new Commitments may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide such increased or new Commitment. 
  
 (b) The increased or new Commitments shall become effective, as of such
Increase Effective Date; provided that: 
  
 (i) each of the conditions set forth in Section 5.2 shall be satisfied; 
  
 (ii) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result from the borrowings to be made on the Increase Effective Date;

  
 (iii) after giving pro forma effect to the
borrowings to be made on the Increase Effective Date and to any change in Consolidated EBITDA and any increase in Debt resulting from the consummation of any acquisition permitted by this Agreement concurrently with such borrowings as of the date of
the most recent financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 6.1(b) or (c), the Borrower shall be in compliance with each of the covenants set forth in Section 7.16; 
  
 (iv) the Borrower shall make any payments required pursuant
to Section 2.20 in connection with any adjustment of Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.24(d); and 
  
 (v) the Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered any legal opinions or other documents reasonably requested by the Administrative
Agent in connection with any such transaction. 
  
 (c) The terms
and provisions of Loans made pursuant to the new Commitments shall be as follows: 
  
 (i) terms and provisions of Loans made pursuant to Incremental Term Loan Commitments (“Incremental Term Loans”) shall be,
except as otherwise set forth herein or in the Increase Joinder, identical to the Tranche B Term Loans (it being understood that Incremental Term Loans may be part of an existing tranche of Term Loans); 
  
 (ii) all terms and provisions (including maturity date) of
Revolving Loans made pursuant to new Commitments shall be identical to the existing Revolving Loans; 
  
 (iii) the weighted average life to maturity of all new Term Loans shall be no shorter than the weighted average life to maturity of the
existing Tranche B Term Loans; 
  
 (iv) the
maturity date of Incremental Term Loans shall not be earlier than the Tranche B Term Loan Maturity Date; and 
  
 (v) the Applicable Margins for the new Term Loans shall be determined by Borrower and the applicable new Lenders; provided,
however, that the Applicable Margins for the new Term Loans shall not be greater than the highest Applicable Margins that may, under any circumstances, be payable with respect to Tranche B Term Loans plus 50 basis points (and the Applicable
Margins applicable to the Tranche B Term Loans shall be increased to the extent necessary to achieve the foregoing). 
  

 -50- 

 The increased or new Commitments shall be effected by a joinder agreement (the “Increase Joinder”)
executed by Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Lender making such increased or new Commitment, in form and substance satisfactory to each of them. The Increase Joinder may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.24. 
  
 (d) To the extent the Commitments being increased on the relevant Increase Effective Date are Revolving Commitments, then
each of the Revolving Lenders having a Revolving Commitment prior to such Increase Effective Date (the “Pre-Increase Revolving Lenders”) shall assign to any Revolving Lender which is acquiring a new or additional Revolving
Commitment on the Increase Effective Date (the “Post-Increase Revolving Lenders”), and such Post-Increase Revolving Lenders shall purchase from each Pre-Increase Revolving Lender, at the principal amount thereof, such interests in
the Revolving Loans and participation interests in LC Obligations and Swingline Loans outstanding on such Increase Effective Date as shall be necessary in order that, after giving effect to all such assignments and purchases, such Revolving Loans
and participation interests in LC Obligations and Swingline Loans will be held by Pre-Increase Revolving Lenders and Post-Increase Revolving Lenders ratably in accordance with their Revolving Commitments after giving effect to such increased
Revolving Commitments. 
  
 (e) On any Increase Effective Date on
which new Commitments for Term Loans are effective, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions, each Lender of such new Commitment shall make a Term Loan to the Borrower in an amount equal to its new Commitment. 
  
 (f) The Loans and Commitments established pursuant to this paragraph shall
constitute Loans and Commitments under, and shall be entitled to all the benefits afforded by, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and shall, without limiting the foregoing, benefit equally and ratably from Section 10 hereof and
security interests created by the Security Documents. The Loan Parties shall take any actions reasonably required by the Administrative Agent to ensure and/or demonstrate that the Lien and security interests granted by the Security Documents
continue to be perfected under the UCC or otherwise after giving effect to the establishment of any such class of Term Loans or any such new Commitments. 
  
 SECTION 3  
  
 LETTERS OF CREDIT 
  
 3.1 LC Commitment. 
  
 (a)
Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Issuing Lender, in reliance on the agreements of the other Revolving Lenders set forth in Section 3.4, agrees to issue letters of credit (“Letters of Credit”) for the
account of the Borrower on any Business Day during the Revolving Commitment Period in such form as may be approved from time to time by the Issuing Lender; provided that the Issuing Lender shall have no obligation to issue any Letter of
Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, (i) the LC Obligations would exceed the LC Commitment or (ii) the aggregate amount of the Available Revolving Commitments would be less than zero. Each Letter of Credit shall (i) be
denominated in Dollars and (ii) expire no later than the earlier of (x) the first anniversary of its date of issuance and (y) the date that is fifteen Business Days prior to the Revolving Termination Date, provided that any
Letter of Credit with a one-year term may provide for the renewal thereof for additional one-year periods (which shall in no event extend beyond the date referred to in clause (y) above). 
  

 -51- 

 (b) The Issuing Lender shall not at any time be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit if such issuance
would conflict with, or cause the Issuing Lender or any Revolving Lender to exceed any limits imposed by, any applicable Requirement of Law. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and
conditions of any Application or other agreement submitted by the Borrower to, or entered into by the Borrower with, the Issuing Lender relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. 
  
 (c) All Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be issued hereunder and
shall constitute Letters of Credit subject to the terms hereof. 
  
 3.2 Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Borrower shall hand deliver or
telecopy (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the Issuing Lender) to the Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal
or extension) a notice pursuant to an LC Request requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall
be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with Section 3.1(a)), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall
be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. If requested by the Issuing Lender, the Borrower also shall submit an Application on the Issuing Lender’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of
Credit. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such
issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, (i) the LC Obligations shall not exceed $125,000,000 and (ii) the Available Revolving Commitments would not be less than zero. 
  
 3.3 Fees and Other Charges. The Borrower shall pay the fees specified in Section 2.8. 
  
 3.4 Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an
amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Lender or the Lenders, the Issuing Lender hereby grants to each Revolving Lender, and each Revolving Lender hereby acquires from
the Issuing Lender, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Revolving Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each
Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, such Lender’s Revolving Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by the Issuing Lender and not reimbursed by
the Borrower on the date due as provided in Section 3.5, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations
pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and
continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. 
  
 3.5 Reimbursement. If the Issuing Lender shall make any LC
Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 1:00 P.M., New York City time, on the 
  

 -52- 

 date that such LC Disbursement is made, if the Borrower shall have received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 12:00
noon, New York City time, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by the Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than 1:00 P.M., New York City time, on (i) the Business Day that the Borrower receives such notice,
if such notice is received prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the day of receipt, or (ii) the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is not received prior to such time on the
day of receipt; provided that, if such LC Disbursement is not less than $1,000,000, the Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.5 or 2.6 that such payment
be financed with an ABR Revolving Loan or Swingline Loan in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Revolving Loan or Swingline
Loan. If the Borrower fails to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender’s Revolving
Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Revolving Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its Revolving Percentage of the payment then due from the Borrower, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.5
(without regard to minimum amounts) and Section 2.17(e) with respect to Loans made by such Revolving Lender (and such Sections shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Lenders), and the
Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Issuing Lender the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the
Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the Issuing Lender or, to the extent that Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Lender, then to such Revolving Lenders and the Issuing Lender as
their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Revolving Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Lender for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Revolving Loans or a Swingline Loan as contemplated above) shall not
constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement. 
  
 3.6 Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in Section 3.5 shall be absolute,
unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or
this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect,
(iii) payment by the Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not
similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of set-off against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent,
the Lenders nor the Issuing Lender, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment
thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter
of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Lender; provided that the foregoing shall not be
construed to excuse the Issuing Lender from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law)
suffered by the Borrower that are caused by the Issuing Lender’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree
that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing 
  

 -53- 

 
Lender (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In
furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender
may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if
such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit. 
  
 3.7 Disbursement Procedures. The Issuing Lender shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The Issuing Lender
shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Lender has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to
give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse the Issuing Lender and the Revolving Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement. 
  
 3.8 Interim Interest. If the Issuing Lender shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse
such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such
LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans; provided that, if the Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to Section 3.5, then Section 2.14(c) shall apply.
Interest accrued pursuant to this Section shall be for the account of the Issuing Lender, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Revolving Lender pursuant to Section 3.5 to reimburse the Issuing Lender shall
be for the account of such Revolving Lender to the extent of such payment. 
  
 3.9 Replacement of the Issuing Lender. The Issuing Lender may be replaced at any time with another party eligible to become the Issuing Lender as provided herein, by written notice given by the Borrower (with
the approval of the successor Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent) to the replaced Issuing Lender; provided that prior to such replacement all Letters of Credit issued by the replaced Issuing Lender are terminated or cash
collateralized on terms satisfactory to the replaced Issuing Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of the Issuing Lender. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all
unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.3). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of
the Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Lender” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Lender, or
to such successor and all previous Issuing Lenders, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Lender hereunder, the replaced Issuing Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations
of an Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit. 
  
 3.10 Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the
Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Lenders with LC Obligations representing greater than 50% of the total LC Obligations) demanding the deposit of
cash collateral pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Collateral Agent, in the name of the Collateral Agent and for the benefit of the Secured Parties, an amount in cash equal to 105% of the LC Obligations as of

  

 -54- 

 such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash
collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Borrower described in
Section 8.1(g). Such deposit shall be held by the Collateral Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. The Collateral Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control,
including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Collateral Agent and at the Borrower’s
risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Collateral Agent to reimburse the Issuing Lender for LC
Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the LC Obligations at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been
accelerated (but subject to the consent of Lenders with LC Obligations representing greater than 50% of the total LC Obligations), be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement, and any surplus remaining shall be
returned to the Borrower after all Events of Default triggering such deposit cease to exist. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the
extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. 
  
 SECTION 4  
  
 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 
  
 Each Loan Party represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Lender and each of the Lenders (with references to the Group Members being references thereto after giving effect
to the Transactions unless otherwise expressly stated) that: 
  
 4.1 Organization; Power. Each Loan Party and each of its Subsidiaries (i) is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing (if such concept is applicable) under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization,
(ii) is duly qualified and in good standing as a foreign business enterprise (if such concept is applicable) in each other jurisdiction in which it owns or leases property or in which the conduct of its business requires it to so qualify or be
licensed except where the failure to be so qualified or licensed would not, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Effect and (iii) has all requisite power and authority (including, without limitation, all material
Governmental Authorizations) to own or lease and operate its properties and to carry on its business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted. 
  
 4.2 Capital Stock; Subsidiaries. Set forth on Schedule 1(a) to the Perfection Certificate is a complete and accurate list of all
Subsidiaries of the Borrower, showing as of the date hereof (as to each Loan Party) the jurisdiction of its incorporation, the address of its principal place of business and its U.S. taxpayer identification number or, in the case of any non-U.S.
Loan Party that does not have a U.S. taxpayer identification number, its unique identification number issued to it by the jurisdiction of its incorporation. The copy of the charter of each Loan Party and each amendment thereto provided pursuant to
Section 5.1(b) is a true and correct copy of each such document, each of which is valid and in full force and effect. Schedule 10(a) to the Perfection Certificate shows the number of shares or other units of each class of
each Subsidiary’s Capital Stock authorized, and the number outstanding, on the date hereof and the percentage of each such class of its Capital Stock owned (directly or indirectly) by the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof and the number of
shares or other units covered by all outstanding options, warrants, rights of conversion or purchase and similar rights at the date hereof, except for any obligations or 
  

 -55- 

 rights of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to acquire any minority interest in any Subsidiary of the Borrower that
is a partnership or a limited liability company. All of the outstanding Capital Stock of each such Subsidiary (A) (in the case of Subsidiaries that are corporations) has been validly issued, is fully paid and non-assessable and (B) to the
extent owned by the Borrower or one or more of its Subsidiaries, is free and clear of all Liens, except those created under the Security Documents or Permitted Liens. 
  
 4.3 Authorization; No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance by each Loan Party of each Loan Document to
which it is or is to be a party, and the consummation of the Transactions, are within such Loan Party’s corporate, partnership or limited liability company powers, as applicable, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate, partnership
or limited liability company action, as applicable, and do not (i) contravene such Loan Party’s Constitutive Documents, (ii) violate any Requirements of Law, (iii) conflict with or result in the breach of, or constitute a default
or require any payment to be made under, any material contract, loan agreement, indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, lease or other instrument binding on or affecting any Loan Party or any of its properties or (iv) except for the Liens created
under the Loan Documents, result in or require the creation or imposition of any Lien upon or with respect to any of the properties of any Loan Party. No Loan Party is in violation of any such Requirements of Law, the violation of which would be
reasonably likely, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 4.4 No Approvals. No Governmental Authorization, and no other authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any Governmental Authority or any other third party is required for
(i) the due execution, delivery, recordation, filing or performance by any Loan Party of any Loan Document to which it is or is to be a party, or for the consummation of the Transactions, (ii) the grant by any Loan Party of the Liens
granted by it pursuant to the Security Documents, (iii) the perfection or maintenance of the Liens created under the Security Documents on such of the Collateral located in the United States in which a Lien may be perfected by the filing of
financing statements, the recordation of security agreements with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office or the U.S. Copyright Office or the delivery of Collateral (including the first priority nature thereof) or (iv) the exercise by any Agent or
any Lender of its rights under the Loan Documents or the remedies in respect of the Collateral pursuant to the Security Documents, except for (A) the authorizations, approvals, filings and actions described on Schedule 4.4 hereto, all of
which either (i) have been duly obtained and are in full force and effect or will be obtained and in full force and effect prior to the Closing Date or (ii) the failure to obtain could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect, (B) filings, notices, recordings and other similar actions necessary for the creation or perfection of the Liens and security interests contemplated by the Loan Documents and (C) the actions required by laws generally with
respect to the exercise by secured creditors of their rights and remedies. Except as specified on Schedule 4.4 hereto applicable waiting periods in connection with the Transactions have expired without any action having been taken by any
competent authority restraining, preventing or imposing materially adverse conditions upon the Transactions or the rights of the Loan Parties or their Subsidiaries freely to transfer or otherwise dispose of, or to create any Lien on, any properties
now owned or hereafter acquired by any of them. 
  
 4.5
Enforceability. This Agreement has been, and each other Loan Document when delivered hereunder will have been, duly executed and delivered by each Loan Party thereto. This Agreement is, and each other Loan Document when delivered hereunder
will be, the legal, valid and binding obligation of each Loan Party thereto, enforceable against such Loan Party in accordance with its terms. 
  
 4.6 Litigation. There is no action, suit, investigation, litigation or proceeding affecting any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries, including
any Environmental Action, pending or, to the knowledge of the Loan Parties, threatened before any Governmental Authority or arbitrator that (i) would be reasonably likely, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect or
(ii) purports to affect the legality, validity or enforceability of any Loan Document or the consummation of the Transactions, except as disclosed prior to the Closing Date in the Borrower’s filings made with the SEC.

person other than such infringement which could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No claim has been made and remains outstanding that any Group Member’s use of any Collateral

Documents contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to make the statements made therein not misleading, except with respect to any projections or forecasts contained in such materials, the Group
Members represent only that the same were prepared in good faith on the basis of assumptions believed to be reasonable.

underwriter” for, an “investment company,” as such terms are defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Neither any Loan Party nor any of its Subsidiaries is a “holding company,” or a “subsidiary
company” of a “holding company,” or an “affiliate” of a “holding company” or of a “subsidiary company” of a “holding company,” as such terms are defined in the Public Utility Holding Company Act
of 1935, as amended. Neither the making of any Loans, nor the issuance of any Letters of Credit, nor the application of the proceeds or repayment thereof by the Borrower, nor the consummation of the other transactions contemplated by the Loan

 THE AGENTS 
  
 9.1 Appointment and
Authority. Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Lender hereby irrevocably appoints JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes
such Agents to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to such Agents by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. With the exception of the second
and fifth sentences of Section 9.6, the provisions of this Section are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lender, and neither the Borrower nor any other Loan Party shall
have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. 
  
 9.2 Rights as a Lender. Each person serving as an 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 an Agent and the term
“Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or 
  

 -94- 

 unless the context otherwise requires, include each person serving as an Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such
person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if
such person were not an Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders. 
  
 9.3 Exculpatory Provisions. No Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no Agent: 
  
 (i) shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing; 
  

(ii) shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers
expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that such Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in
the other Loan Documents); provided that such Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its judgment or the judgment of its counsel, may expose such Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable
Requirements of Law; and 
  
 (iii) shall, except
as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the
person serving as such Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. 
  
 No
Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (x) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as such Agent shall believe in good faith
shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 11.1) or (y) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice
describing such Default is given to such Agent by the Borrower, a Lender or the Issuing Lender. 
  
 No Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in
connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any
of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other
agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 5 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such Agent. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement with reference to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under
agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. 
  
 9.4 Reliance by Agent. Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and
shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it
to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper person. 
  

 -95- 

 Each Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the
proper person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a
Lender or the Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or the Issuing Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or the Issuing
Lender prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for
any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. 
  
 9.5 Delegation of Duties. Each Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan
Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by such Agent. Each Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory
provisions of this Section shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of each 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 Agent. 
  
 9.6 Resignation of
Agent. Each Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower,
to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have
accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lender, appoint a successor Agent meeting the qualifications set forth
above, provided that if the Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the
retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the Issuing Lender under any
of the Loan Documents, the retiring Collateral Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security as nominee until such time as a successor Collateral Agent is appointed) and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be
made by, to or through an Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and the Issuing Lender directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided for above in this paragraph. Upon the acceptance of a
successor’s appointment as Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from all of its
duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this paragraph). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor
unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Section 9 and Section 11.5 shall continue in
effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Agent was acting as Agent. 
  
 9.7 Non-Reliance on Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender and the
Issuing Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon any 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 and the Issuing Lender also acknowledges that it will, 
  

 -96- 

 independently and without reliance upon any 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 other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

  
 9.8 No Other Duties, etc. Anything herein to the
contrary notwithstanding, none of the bookmanagers, arrangers, Syndication Agent or Documentation Agents listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents,
except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, a Lender or the Issuing Lender hereunder. 
  
 SECTION 10  
  
 GUARANTEE 
  
 10.1 The Guarantee. The Guarantors hereby jointly and severally guarantee, as a primary obligor and not as a surety to each Secured Party and their respective successors and assigns, the prompt payment in full when due (whether at
stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, demand, by acceleration or otherwise) of the principal of and interest (including any interest, fees, costs or charges that would accrue but for the provisions of the Title 11 of the United
States Code after any bankruptcy or insolvency petition under Title 11 of the United States Code) on the Loans made by the Lenders to, and the Notes held by each Lender of, Borrower, and all other Secured Obligations from time to time owing to the
Secured Parties by any Loan Party under any Loan Document, Specified Swap Agreement or Operating Indebtedness Agreement, in each case strictly in accordance with the terms thereof (such obligations being herein collectively called the
“Guaranteed Obligations”). The Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree that if Borrower or other Guarantor(s) shall fail to pay in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any of the Guaranteed
Obligations, the Guarantors will promptly pay the same in cash, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full
when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal. 
  
 10.2 Obligations Unconditional. The obligations of the Guarantors under Section 10.1 shall constitute a guaranty of payment and to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, are absolute, irrevocable and unconditional, joint and several, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations of Borrower
under this Agreement, the Notes, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or any substitution, release or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and irrespective of
any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor (except for payment in full). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of
any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of the Guarantors hereunder, which shall remain absolute, irrevocable and unconditional under any and all circumstances as described above: 
  
 (i) at any time or from time to time, without notice to the
Guarantors, the time for any performance of or compliance with any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived; 
  
 (ii) any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of this Agreement or the Notes, if any, or any other
agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be done or omitted; 
  

 -97- 

 (iii) the maturity of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of
the Guaranteed Obligations shall be amended in any respect, or any right under the Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be amended or waived in any respect or any other guarantee of any of the
Guaranteed Obligations or any security therefor shall be released or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with; 
  
 (iv) any Lien or security interest granted to, or in favor of, the Issuing Lender or any Lender or Agent as security for any of the
Guaranteed Obligations shall fail to be perfected; or 
  
 (v) the release of any other Guarantor pursuant to Section 10.9. 
  
 The Guarantors hereby expressly waive diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that any Secured Party exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against
Borrower under this Agreement or the Notes, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or against any other person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Guaranteed Obligations. The Guarantors
waive any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension, waiver, termination or accrual of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by any Secured Party upon this Guarantee or acceptance of this Guarantee, and the
Guaranteed Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred in reliance upon this Guarantee, and all dealings between Borrower and the Secured Parties shall likewise be conclusively presumed to
have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Guarantee. This Guarantee shall be construed as a continuing, absolute, irrevocable and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to any right of offset with respect to the Guaranteed
Obligations at any time or from time to time held by Secured Parties, and the obligations and liabilities of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be conditioned or contingent upon the pursuit by the Secured Parties or any other person at any time of
any right or remedy against Borrower or against any other person which may be or become liable in respect of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or against any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect
thereto. This Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon the Guarantors and the successors and assigns thereof, and shall inure to the benefit of the Lenders, and their
respective successors and assigns, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of this Agreement there may be no Guaranteed Obligations outstanding. 
  

10.3 Reinstatement. The obligations of the Guarantors under this Section 10 shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent
that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of Borrower or other Loan Party in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of any
proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise. 
  
  
 10.4 Subrogation; Subordination. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that until the indefeasible payment and satisfaction in full in cash of all
Guaranteed Obligations and the expiration and termination of the Commitments of the Lenders under this Agreement it shall not assert or exercise any right or remedy, direct or indirect, arising by reason of any performance by it of its guarantee in
Section 10.1, whether by subrogation or otherwise, against Borrower or any other Guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations. Any Debt of any Loan Party permitted pursuant to
Section 7.2(d) shall be subordinated to such Loan Party’s Secured Obligations in the manner set forth in the Intercompany Note evidencing such Debt. 
  
 10.5 Remedies. The Guarantors jointly and severally agree that, as between the Guarantors and the Lenders, the
obligations of Borrower under this Agreement and the Notes, if any, may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Section 8.1 (and shall be deemed to have become automatically 
  

 -98- 

 
due and payable in the circumstances provided in Section 8.1) for purposes of Section 10.1, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or
other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against Borrower and that, in the event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and
payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by Borrower) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for purposes of Section 10.1. 
  
 10.6 Instrument for the Payment of Money. Each Guarantor hereby acknowledges that the guarantee in this
Section 10 constitutes an instrument for the payment of money, and consents and agrees that any Lender or Agent, at its sole option, in the event of a dispute by such Guarantor in the payment of any moneys due hereunder, shall have the
right to bring a motion-action under New York CPLR Section 3213. 
  
 10.7 Continuing Guarantee. Subject to Section 11.14, the guarantee in this Section 10 is a continuing guarantee of payment, and shall apply to all Guaranteed Obligations whenever arising. 
  
 10.8 General Limitation on Guaranteed Obligations. If in any action or
proceeding involving any state corporate limited partnership or limited liability company law, or any applicable state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance or transfer law or regulation, or other law
affecting the rights of creditors generally, the obligations of any Guarantor under Section 10.1 would otherwise be held or determined to be void, voidable, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors,
on account of the amount of its liability under Section 10.1, then, notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by such Guarantor, any Loan Party or any other
person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors. 
  
 10.9 Release of Guarantors. If, in compliance with the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents, all or substantially all of the Capital Stock or
property of any Guarantor are sold or otherwise transferred (a “Transferred Guarantor”) to a person or persons, none of which is Borrower or a Subsidiary, such Transferred Guarantor shall, upon the consummation of such sale or
transfer, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (including under Section 11.5 hereof) and its obligations to pledge and grant any Collateral owned by it pursuant to any Security Document and, in the case of a sale of all
or substantially all of the Capital Stock of the Transferred Guarantor, the pledge of such Capital Stock to the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Security Agreement shall be released, and the Collateral Agent shall take such actions as are necessary
to effect each such release in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Security Documents. If, in compliance with the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, Sections 7.5 and 7.13), Capital
Stock of a Guarantor is sold or otherwise transferred so that such Guarantor is no longer a Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Borrower, upon the consummation of such sale or transfer, such Guarantor shall be released, subject to pro forma compliance
with Section 7.12, from its obligations under this Agreement (including under Section 10 and Section 11.5 hereof) and its obligations to pledge and grant any Collateral owned by it pursuant to any Security
Document, and the Collateral Agent shall take such actions as are necessary to effect each such release in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Security Documents and to acknowledge in writing such release and the termination of the
guarantee of such Guarantor if requested. 
  
 SECTION 11

relevant Loan Document may, or, with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, and each Loan Party to the relevant Loan Document may, from time to time, (a) enter into written

scheduled date of maturity of any Loan, extend the scheduled date of any amortization payment in respect of any Term Loan, reduce the stated rate of any interest, premium or fee payable hereunder (except (x) in connection with the waiver of
applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates and (y) that any amendment or modification of defined terms used in the financial covenants in this Agreement shall not constitute a reduction in the rate of interest or fees for
purposes of this clause (i)) or extend the scheduled date of any payment thereof, or increase the amount or extend the expiration date of any Lender’s Revolving Commitment or increase the maximum duration of Interest Periods hereunder or alter
the provisions of Section 8.2 (it being understood that if additional classes of Term Loans or additional Loans under this Agreement consented to by the Required Lenders or additional Loans pursuant to Section 2.24 are made,
such new Loans being included on a pro rata basis within Section 8.2 shall not be considered an alteration thereof), in each case without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; (ii) eliminate or reduce

the Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, release all or substantially all of the Collateral or release all or substantially all of the Guarantors from their guarantee under
Section 10, in each case without the written consent of all Lenders (it being understood that lenders added pursuant to Section 2.24 or lenders under additional classes of Term Loans or additional Loans under this Agreement
consented to by the Required Lenders being included in such definition shall not be deemed to require the written consent of all Lenders); (iv) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 2.17 without the written consent of the
Majority Facility Lenders in respect of each Facility adversely affected thereby; (v) reduce the amount of Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow required to be applied to prepay Loans under this Agreement without the written consent of the
Majority Facility Lenders with respect to each Facility; (vi) reduce the percentage specified in the definition of Majority Facility Lenders with respect to any Facility without the written consent of all Lenders under such Facility;
(vii) change the application of prepayments as among or between Facilities under Section 2.11(d), without the written consent of the Majority Facility Lenders of each Facility that is being allocated a lesser prepayment as a result
thereof (it being understood that if additional classes of Term Loans or additional Loans under this Agreement consented to by the Required Lenders or additional Loans pursuant to Section 2.24 are made, such new Loans may be included on
a pro rata basis in the various prepayments required pursuant to Section 2.11(d)); (viii) expressly change or waive any condition precedent in Section 5.2 to any Revolving Borrowing without the written consent of

 -100- 

 any waiver, the Loan Parties, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall be restored to their former position and
rights hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and any Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default, or impair any
right consequent thereon. 
  
 Without the consent of any other
person, the applicable Loan Party or Parties and the Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent may (in its or their respective sole discretion, or shall, to the extent required by any Loan Document) enter into any amendment or waiver of any Loan
Document, or enter into any new agreement or instrument, to effect the granting, perfection, protection, expansion or enhancement of any security interest in any Collateral or additional property to become Collateral for the benefit of the Secured
Parties, or as required by local law to give effect to, or protect, any security interest for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in any property or so that the security interests therein comply with applicable Requirements of Law. 
  
 If, in connection with any proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination
of the provisions of this Agreement as contemplated by this Section, the consent of 75% of the Lenders whose consent is required is obtained but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained, then the
Borrower shall have the right to replace all, but not less than all, of such non-consenting Lender or Lenders (so long as all non-consenting Lenders are so replaced) with one or more persons pursuant to Section 2.22 so long as at the
time of such replacement each such new Lender consents to the proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination.

 (c) Electronic Communications. Notices and other communications to the
Lenders and the Issuing Lender hereunder may (subject to Section 11.2(d)) be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative
Agent; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender or the Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2 if such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as applicable, has notified the Administrative Agent that it is
incapable of receiving notices under such Section by electronic communication. The Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic
communications pursuant to procedures approved by it (including as set forth in Section 11.2(d)); provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. 
  
 Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and
other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or
other written acknowledgement); provided that if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on
the next business day for the recipient, and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing
clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor. 
  
 (d) Posting. Each Loan Party hereby agrees that it will provide to the Administrative Agent all information, documents and other materials that it
is obligated to furnish to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement and any other Loan Document, including all notices, requests, financial statements, financial and other reports, certificates and other information materials, but
excluding any such communication that (i) relates to a request for a new, or a conversion of an existing, Loan or other extension of credit (including any election of an interest rate or interest period relating thereto), (ii) relates to
the payment of any principal or other amount due under this Agreement prior to the scheduled date therefor, (iii) provides notice of any Default under this Agreement or (iv) is required to be delivered to satisfy any condition precedent to

medium in a format reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent at dawn.leelum@jpmorgan.com or at such other e-mail address(es) provided to the Borrower from time to time or in such other form, including hard copy delivery thereof, as the
Administrative Agent shall require. In addition, each Loan Party agrees to continue to provide the Communications to the Administrative Agent in the manner specified in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in such other form, including hard
copy delivery thereof, as the Administrative Agent shall require. Nothing in this Section 11.2 shall prejudice the right of the Agents, any Lender or any Loan Party to give any notice or other communication pursuant to this Agreement or
any other Loan Document in any other manner specified in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or as any such Agent shall require. 
  
 To the extent consented to by the Administrative Agent in writing from time to time, Administrative Agent agrees that receipt of the Communications by the
Administrative Agent at its e-mail address(es) set forth above shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to the Administrative 
  

 -102- 

 Agent for purposes of the Loan Documents; provided that the Borrower shall also deliver to the Administrative
Agent an executed original of each Compliance Certificate required to be delivered hereunder. 
  
 Each Loan Party further agrees that Administrative Agent may make the Communications available to the Lenders by posting the Communications on Intralinks or a substantially similar electronic transmission system (the
“Platform”). The Platform is provided “as is” and “as available.” The Agents do not warrant the accuracy or completeness of the Communications, or the adequacy of the Platform and expressly disclaim liability for
errors or omissions in the communications. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including, without limitation, any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third party rights or freedom
from viruses or other code defects, is made by any Agent in connection with the Communications or the Platform. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties have any liability to the Loan Parties, any Lender or any other
person for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of any Loan Party’s or the Administrative Agent’s
transmission of communications through the Internet, except to the extent the liability of such person is found in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such person’s gross negligence or
willful misconduct. 
  
 11.3 No Waiver; Cumulative
Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall
any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein
provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law. 
  
 11.4 Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties herein and in the certificates or other
instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans and issuance
of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any
Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under
this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.18, 2.19, 2.20 and 11.5 and Section 9
shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of
this Agreement or any provision hereof. 
  
 11.5 Expenses;
Indemnity; Damage Waiver. 
  
 (a) The Borrower shall pay
(i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and their respective Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent and the
Collateral Agent, in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of this Agreement, the Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or
thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), 
  

 -103- 

 (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Issuing Lender in connection with the issuance, amendment,
renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender, including the fees,
charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement, including its rights
under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit;
provided that the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay legal fees and expenses incurred pursuant to clauses (i) and (ii) above in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities or the preparation of the Loan Documents
prior to the initial Credit Extension. 
  
 (b) The Borrower shall
indemnify the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the Collateral Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the Issuing Lender 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, any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the
parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom
(including any refusal by the Issuing Lender to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or
alleged presence or release or threatened release of Hazardous Materials at, on, under or from any property owned or operated by any Group Member, any Environmental Liability related in any way to any Group Member or any violation of healthcare laws
related in any way to any Group Member, 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, regardless of whether brought by a
third party or by a Loan Party 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 are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have been incurred primarily by reason of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee and that if any Indemnitee shall receive
indemnification that is later disallowed by this proviso, it shall promptly repay to the Borrower any such funds. 
  
 (c) To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the
Collateral Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Lender
or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, such Lender’s Aggregate Exposure Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the
unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender in its capacity
as such. 
  
 (d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the
Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a
result of, this Agreement, any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. 
  

 -104- 

 (e) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor.

  
 11.6 Successors and Assigns; Participations and
Assignments. 
  
 (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall
be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any affiliate of the Issuing Lender that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) the Borrower may not
assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender
may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their
respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Lender that issues any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section) and, to the extent expressly
contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender 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 (each, an “Assignee”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the
prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of: 
  
 (A) the Borrower, provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an affiliate of a
Lender, an Approved Fund or, if an Event of Default under Section 8.1(a), 8.1(b) or 8.1(g) has occurred and is continuing, any other Person; 
  
 (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; and 
  
 (C) the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender, provided that no consent of the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender shall be
required for an assignment of all or any portion of a Term Loan or 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 an assignment to a Lender, an affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an
assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitments or Loans under any Facility, the amount of the Commitments or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the
Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000 (or, in the case of the Tranche B Term Facility, $1,000,000) unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent otherwise consents, provided that (1) no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default under Sections 8.1(a), (b) or (g) has occurred and is continuing and (2) such
amounts shall be aggregated in respect of each Lender and its affiliates or Approved Funds, if any; 
  

 -105- 

 (B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all
the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, provided that this clause shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect
of one Facility; 
  
 (C) the parties to each
assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; and 
  
 (D) the Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. 
  
 For the purposes of this Section 11.6, the term “Approved
Fund” has the following meaning: 
  
 “Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is
administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender. 
  
 (iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) below, from and after
the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this
Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of
the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.18, 2.19, 2.20 and 11.5). Any
assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 11.6 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and
obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section. 
  
 (iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of
the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the
Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this
Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Agents, the Borrower, the Issuing Lender 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;
provided that if either the assigning Lender or the assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it 
  

 -106- 

 pursuant to Section 2.7(b) or (c), 3.4, 3.5, 2.17(e) or
11.5, the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest
thereon. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. 
  
 (c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender 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 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
Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender 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 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 may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that (1) requires the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby pursuant to the proviso to the second
sentence of Section 11.1 and (2) directly affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.18, 2.19 and
2.20, and shall be subject to Section 2.21, 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 11.7(b) as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant shall be subject to Section 11.7(a) as though it were a Lender. 
  
 (ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any
greater payment under Section 2.18 or 2.19 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made
with the Borrower’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Any Participant that is a Non-U.S. Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.19 unless such Participant agrees to comply
with Section 2.19(e). 
  
 (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 pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not
apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or Assignee for such
Lender as a party hereto. 
  
 (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing,
any Conduit Lender may assign any or all of the Loans it may have funded hereunder to its designating Lender without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent and without regard to the limitations set forth in
Section 11.6(b). Each of the Borrower, each Lender and the Administrative Agent hereby confirms that it will not institute against a Conduit Lender or join any other Person in instituting against a Conduit Lender any bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding under any state bankruptcy or similar law, for one year and one day after the payment in full of the latest maturing commercial paper note issued by such Conduit Lender;
provided, however, that each Lender designating any Conduit Lender hereby agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless each other party hereto for any loss, cost, damage or expense arising out of its inability to institute such a proceeding
against such Conduit Lender during such period of forbearance. 
  

 -107- 

 (f) The Borrower, at its sole expense and upon receipt of written notice from the relevant Lender, agrees
to issue Note(s) to any Lender requiring Note(s) to facilitate transactions of the type described in this Section 11.6. 
  
 11.7 Adjustments; Set-off. 
  
 (a) Except to the extent that this Agreement expressly provides for payments to be allocated to a particular Lender or to the Lenders under a particular
Facility, if any Lender (a “Benefitted Lender”) shall receive any payment of all or part of the Obligations owing to it, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to
events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 8.1(g), or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of the Obligations owing to such other
Lender, such Benefitted Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of the Obligations owing to each such other Lender, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral,
as shall be necessary to cause such Benefitted Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is
thereafter recovered from such Benefitted Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. 
  
 (b) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby
authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by
such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any of and all the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall
have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.

  
 11.8 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 5.1, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received
counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an
executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. 
  
 11.9 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be
ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in
any other jurisdiction.

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.

 (b) consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have

 (d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to
effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right to sue in any other jurisdiction; and 
  
 (e) waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding
referred to in this Section any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages. 
  
 11.13 Acknowledgments. Each of the Loan Parties hereby acknowledges that: 
  
 (a) it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents;

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the Collateral Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized by each Lender (without requirement of notice to or consent of any Lender except as expressly required by

 PERFECTION; SUPPLEMENTS; FURTHER ASSURANCES; 
 USE OF PLEDGED COLLATERAL 
  
 SECTION 3.1. Delivery of Certificated Securities Collateral. Each Pledgor represents and warrants that all certificates, agreements or instruments
representing or evidencing the Securities Collateral in existence on the date hereof have been delivered to the Collateral Agent in suitable form for transfer by delivery or accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in blank
and that the Collateral Agent has a perfected first priority security interest therein. Each Pledgor hereby agrees that all certificates, agreements or instruments representing or evidencing Securities Collateral acquired by such Pledgor after the

occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, to endorse, assign or otherwise transfer to or to register in the name of the Collateral Agent or any of its nominees or endorse for negotiation any or all of the Securities Collateral,
without any indication that such Securities Collateral is subject to 
  

 -11- 

 the security interest hereunder. In addition, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the
Collateral Agent shall have the right at any time to exchange certificates representing or evidencing Securities Collateral for certificates of smaller or larger denominations. 
  
 SECTION 3.2. Perfection of Uncertificated Securities Collateral. Each Pledgor represents and warrants that the
Collateral Agent has a perfected first priority security interest in all uncertificated Pledged Securities pledged by it hereunder that are in existence on the date hereof. Each Pledgor hereby agrees that if any of the Pledged Securities are at any
time not evidenced by certificates of ownership, then each applicable Pledgor shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (i) cause the issuer to execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent an acknowledgment of the pledge of such Pledged
Securities substantially in the form of Exhibit 1 hereto, (ii) if necessary or desirable to perfect a security interest in such Pledged Securities, cause such pledge to be recorded on the equityholder register or the books of the
issuer, execute any customary pledge forms or other documents necessary or appropriate to complete the pledge and give the Collateral Agent the right to transfer such Pledged Securities under the terms hereof, (iii) upon reasonable request by
the Collateral Agent, provide to the Collateral Agent an opinion of counsel, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, confirming such pledge and perfection thereof, and (iv) after the occurrence and during the
continuance of any Event of Default, upon request by the Collateral Agent, (A) to the extent such Pledgor has the ability to do so, cause the Constitutive Documents of such issuer to be amended to provide that such Pledged Securities shall be
treated as “securities” for purposes of the UCC and (B) cause such Pledged Securities to become certificated and delivered to the Collateral Agent in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.1. 
  
 SECTION 3.3. Financing Statements and Other Filings; Maintenance of
Perfected Security Interest. Each Pledgor represents and warrants that all financing statements, agreements, instruments and other documents necessary to perfect the security interest granted by it to the Collateral Agent in respect of the
Pledged Collateral have been delivered to the Collateral Agent in completed and, to the extent necessary or appropriate, duly executed form for filing in each governmental, municipal or other office specified in Schedule 7 to the
Perfection Certificate. Each Pledgor agrees that at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors, such Pledgor will maintain the security interest created by this Agreement in the Pledged Collateral as a perfected first priority security interest
subject only to Permitted Collateral Liens. 
  
 SECTION 3.4.
Other Actions. In order to further ensure the attachment, perfection and priority of, and the ability of the Collateral Agent to enforce, the Collateral Agent’s security interest in the Pledged Collateral, each Pledgor represents and
warrants (as to itself) as follows and agrees, in each case at such Pledgor’s own expense, to take the following actions with respect to the following Pledged Collateral: 
  
 (a) Instruments and Tangible Chattel Paper. As of the date hereof, no amounts payable under or in
connection with any of the Pledged Collateral are evidenced by any Instrument or Tangible Chattel Paper other than such Instruments and Tangible Chattel Paper listed in Schedule 11 to the Perfection Certificate. Each Instrument and

  

 -12- 

 each item of Tangible Chattel Paper listed in Schedule 11 to the Perfection Certificate has been
properly endorsed, assigned and delivered to the Collateral Agent, accompanied by instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank. If any amount then payable under or in connection with any of the Pledged Collateral shall be evidenced
by any Instrument or Tangible Chattel Paper, and such amount, together with all amounts payable evidenced by any Instrument or Tangible Chattel Paper not previously delivered to the Collateral Agent exceeds $2,000,000 in the aggregate for all
Pledgors, the Pledgor acquiring such Instrument or Tangible Chattel Paper shall promptly (but in any event within five days after receipt thereof) endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Collateral Agent, accompanied by such instruments of
transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the Collateral Agent may from time to time specify. 
  
 (b) Deposit Accounts. As of the date hereof, no Pledgor has any Deposit Accounts other than the accounts listed in Schedule
14 to the Perfection Certificate. The Collateral Agent has a first priority security interest in each such Deposit Account, which security interest is perfected by Control (except for those Deposit Accounts (the “Excluded Accounts”)
(i) for which Control is prohibited by Governmental Authority so long as the balance of each such Deposit Account is swept daily to a Deposit Account subject to the Collateral Agent’s Control, (ii) the available balance of which is
swept daily to a Deposit Account subject to the Collateral Agent’s Control or (iii) the balance of which is not swept daily to a Deposit Account subject to the Collateral Agent’s Control and which, in the aggregate, contain no more
than 15% of total cash of Borrower and its Subsidiaries at any time); provided that Deposit Accounts of the Acquired Business and its Subsidiaries shall not be included within this representation or in any calculations included herein until 90 days
after the Closing Date (or such later date as is determined by the Collateral Agent in its sole discretion). No Pledgor shall change the instructions directing the daily sweep of amounts in the Excluded Accounts to Deposit Accounts subject to the
Collateral Agent’s Control. No Pledgor shall hereafter establish and maintain any Deposit Account unless (1) it shall have given the Collateral Agent 30 days’ prior written notice of its intention to establish such new Deposit Account
with a Bank, (2) such Bank shall be reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent, (3) other than in the case of an Excluded Account, such Bank and such Pledgor shall have duly executed and delivered to the Collateral Agent a Deposit
Account Control Agreement with respect to such Deposit Account and (4) in the case of an Excluded Account referenced in clause (i) or (ii) of the definition thereof, the Pledgor shall have issued sweep instructions directing the bank
to sweep funds from the Excluded Account to a Deposit Account subject to the Collateral Agent’s Control. The Collateral Agent agrees with each Pledgor that the Collateral Agent shall not give any instructions directing the disposition of funds
from time to time credited to any Deposit Account or withhold any withdrawal rights from such Pledgor with respect to funds from time to time credited to any Deposit Account unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. The provisions
of this Section 3.4(b) shall not apply to the LC Account or to any other Deposit Accounts for which the Collateral Agent is the Bank. No Pledgor shall grant Control of any Deposit Account to any person other than the Collateral Agent. No
Pledgor shall revise or revoke any instructions to a Bank under any Deposit Account Control Agreement without the written consent of the Collateral Agent. 
  

 -13- 

 (c) Investment Property. (i) As of the date hereof, no Pledgor has any
Securities Accounts or Commodity Accounts other than those listed in Schedule 14 to the Perfection Certificate. The Collateral Agent has a first priority security interest in each such Securities Account and Commodity Account, which security
interest is perfected by Control. No Pledgor shall hereafter establish and maintain any Securities Account or Commodity Account with any Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary unless (1) it shall have given the Collateral Agent 30
days’ prior written notice of its intention to establish such new Securities Account or Commodity Account with such Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary, (2) such Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary shall be
reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent and (3) such Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary, as the case may be, and such Pledgor shall have duly executed and delivered a Control Agreement with respect to such Securities
Account or Commodity Account, as the case may be. Each Pledgor shall accept any cash and Investment Property in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and within one (1) Business Day of actual receipt thereof, deposit any and all
Investment Property (other than any Investment Property pledged or to be pledged pursuant to clauses (ii)(1), (iii)(1) or (iii)(3) below) received by it into a Securities Account subject to Collateral Agent’s Control. The Collateral Agent
agrees with each Pledgor that the Collateral Agent shall not give any Entitlement Orders or instructions or directions to any issuer of uncertificated securities, Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary, and shall not withhold its consent
to the exercise of any withdrawal or dealing rights by such Pledgor, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or, after giving effect to any such investment and withdrawal rights, would occur. The provisions of this
Section 3.4(c) shall not apply to any Financial Assets credited to a Securities Account for which the Collateral Agent is the Securities Intermediary. No Pledgor shall grant Control over any Investment Property owned by such Pledgor to
any person other than the Collateral Agent. 
  
 (ii) If any Pledgor shall at any time hold or acquire any certificated securities constituting Investment Property, such Pledgor shall by the applicable date specified in Section 6.12 of the Credit Agreement (1) endorse,
assign and deliver the same to the Collateral Agent, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent or (2) deliver such securities into
a Securities Account with respect to which a Securities Account Control Agreement is in effect in favor of the Collateral Agent. 
  
 (iii) If any Pledgor shall at any time own or acquire, directly or through a nominee, any uncertificated securities constituting
Investment Property, such Pledgor shall by the applicable date specified in Section 6.12 of the Credit Agreement notify the Collateral Agent thereof and pursuant to an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Agent,
either (1) cause the issuer to agree to comply with instructions from the Collateral Agent as to such securities, without further consent of any Pledgor or 
  

 -14- 

 such nominee, (2) cause a Security Entitlement with respect to such uncertificated security to be
held in a Securities Account with respect to which the Collateral Agent has Control or (3) arrange for the Collateral Agent to become the registered owner of such securities. 
  
 (iv) As between the Collateral Agent and the Pledgors, the Pledgors shall bear the investment risk with
respect to the Investment Property and Pledged Securities, and the risk of loss of, damage to, or the destruction of the Investment Property and Pledged Securities, whether in the possession of, or maintained as a Security Entitlement or deposit by,
or subject to the Control of, the Collateral Agent, a Securities Intermediary, a Commodity Intermediary, any Pledgor or any other person. 
  
 (d) Electronic Chattel Paper and Transferable Records. As of the date hereof, no amount under or in connection with any of the
Pledged Collateral is evidenced by any Electronic Chattel Paper or any “transferable record” (as that term is defined in Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, or in Section 16 of
the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act as in effect in any relevant jurisdiction) other than such Electronic Chattel Paper and transferable records listed in Schedule 11 to the Perfection Certificate. If any amount payable under or in
connection with any of the Pledged Collateral shall be evidenced by any Electronic Chattel Paper or any transferable record, the Pledgor acquiring such Electronic Chattel Paper or transferable record shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent
thereof and shall take such action as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request to vest in the Collateral Agent control of such Electronic Chattel Paper under Section 9-105 of the UCC or control under Section 201 of the Federal
Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or, as the case may be, Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, as so in effect in such jurisdiction, of such transferable record. The requirement in the preceding
sentence shall not apply to the extent that such amount, together with all amounts payable evidenced by Electronic Chattel Paper or any transferable record in which the Collateral Agent has not been vested control within the meaning of the statutes
described in the immediately preceding sentence, does not exceed $1,000,000 in the aggregate for all Pledgors. The Collateral Agent agrees with such Pledgor that the Collateral Agent will arrange, pursuant to procedures satisfactory to the
Collateral Agent and so long as such procedures will not result in the Collateral Agent’s loss of control, for the Pledgor to make alterations to the Electronic Chattel Paper or transferable record permitted under Section 9-105 of the UCC
or, as the case may be, Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act for a party in control to allow without loss of control, unless an Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing or would occur after taking into account any action by such Pledgor with respect to such Electronic Chattel Paper or transferable record. 
  
 (e) Letter-of-Credit Rights. If any Pledgor is at any time a beneficiary under a Letter of Credit now
or hereafter issued, such Pledgor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent thereof and such Pledgor shall, at the request of the Collateral Agent, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent,
either 
  

 -15- 

 (i) arrange for the issuer and any confirmer of such Letter of Credit to consent to an assignment to the
Collateral Agent of the proceeds of any drawing under the Letter of Credit or (ii) arrange for the Collateral Agent to become the transferee beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, with the Collateral Agent agreeing, in each case, that the
proceeds of any drawing under the Letter of Credit are to be applied as provided in the Credit Agreement. The actions in the preceding sentence shall not be required to the extent that the amount of any such Letter of Credit, together with the
aggregate amount of all other Letters of Credit for which the actions described above in clauses (i) and (ii) have not been taken, does not exceed $5,000,000 in the aggregate for all Pledgors. 
  
 (f) Commercial Tort Claims. As of the date hereof,
each Pledgor hereby represents and warrants that it holds no Commercial Tort Claims other than those listed in Schedule 13 to the Perfection Certificate. If any Pledgor shall at any time hold or acquire a Commercial Tort Claim, such Pledgor
shall immediately notify the Collateral Agent in a writing signed by such Pledgor of the brief details thereof and grant to the Collateral Agent in such writing a security interest therein and in the Proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this
Agreement, with such writing to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent. The requirement in the preceding sentence shall not apply to the extent that the amount of such Commercial Tort Claim, together with the amount
of all other Commercial Tort Claims held by any Pledgor in which the Collateral Agent does not have a security interest, does not exceed $5,000,000 in the aggregate for all Pledgors. 
  
 (g) Motor Vehicles. Upon the request of the Collateral Agent, each Pledgor shall deliver to the
Collateral Agent originals of the certificates of title or ownership for the motor vehicles (and any other Equipment covered by certificates of title or ownership) owned by it, with the Collateral Agent listed as lienholder therein. Such requirement
shall not apply if any such motor vehicle (or any such other Equipment) is valued at less than $100,000, provided that the aggregate value of all motor vehicles (and such Equipment) as to which any Pledgor has not delivered a certificate of title or
ownership is less than $5,000,000. 
  
 SECTION 3.5. Joinder of
Additional Guarantors. The Pledgors shall cause each Subsidiary of the Borrower which, from time to time, after the date hereof shall be required to pledge any assets to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to the
provisions of the Credit Agreement, (a) to execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent (i) a Joinder Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit 3 hereto by the applicable date specified in Section 6.12 of the
Credit Agreement and (ii) at such time a Perfection Certificate or (b) in the case of a Subsidiary organized outside of the United States required to pledge any assets to the Collateral Agent, to execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent
such documentation as the Collateral Agent shall reasonably request and, in each case with respect to clauses (a) and (b) above, upon such execution and delivery, such Subsidiary shall constitute a “Guarantor” and a
“Pledgor” for all purposes hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Guarantor and Pledgor herein. The execution and delivery of such Joinder Agreement shall not require the consent of any Pledgor hereunder. The
rights and obligations of each Pledgor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Guarantor and Pledgor as a party to this Agreement. 
  

 -16- 

 SECTION 3.6. Supplements; Further Assurances. Each Pledgor shall take such further actions, and
execute and/or deliver to the Collateral Agent such additional financing statements, amendments, assignments, agreements, supplements, powers and instruments, as the Collateral Agent may in its reasonable judgment deem necessary or appropriate in
order to create, perfect, preserve and protect the security interest in the Pledged Collateral as provided herein and the rights and interests granted to the Collateral Agent hereunder, to carry into effect the purposes hereof or better to assure
and confirm the validity, enforceability and priority of the Collateral Agent’s security interest in the Pledged Collateral or permit the Collateral Agent to exercise and enforce its rights, powers and remedies hereunder with respect to any
Pledged Collateral, including the filing of financing statements, continuation statements and other documents (including this Agreement) under the Uniform Commercial Code (or other similar laws) in effect in any jurisdiction with respect to the
security interest created hereby and the execution and delivery of Control Agreements, all in form reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and in such offices (including the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States
Copyright Office) wherever required by law to perfect, continue and maintain the validity, enforceablity and priority of the security interest in the Pledged Collateral as provided herein and to preserve the other rights and interests granted to the
Collateral Agent hereunder, as against third parties, with respect to the Pledged Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Pledgor shall make, execute, endorse, acknowledge, file or refile and/or deliver to the Collateral
Agent from time to time upon reasonable request by the Collateral Agent such lists, schedules, descriptions and designations of the Pledged Collateral, copies of warehouse receipts, receipts in the nature of warehouse receipts, bills of lading,
documents of title, vouchers, invoices, schedules, confirmatory assignments, supplements, additional security agreements, conveyances, financing statements, transfer endorsements, powers of attorney, certificates, reports and other assurances or
instruments as the Collateral Agent shall reasonably request. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent may institute and maintain, in its own name or in the name of any Pledgor, such suits and proceedings as the
Collateral Agent may be advised by counsel shall be necessary or expedient to prevent any impairment of the security interest in or the perfection thereof in the Pledged Collateral. All of the foregoing shall be at the sole cost and expense of the
Pledgors.

Subject to Section 6.3 of the Credit Agreement, each Pledgor shall, at its own cost and expense, defend title to the Pledged Collateral pledged by it hereunder and the security interest therein and Lien thereon granted to the Collateral
Agent and the priority thereof against all claims and demands of all persons, at its own cost and expense, at any time claiming any interest therein adverse to the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party other than Permitted Collateral Liens.
There is no agreement, order, judgment or decree, and no Pledgor shall enter into any agreement or take any other action, that would restrict the transferability of any of the Pledged Collateral or otherwise impair or conflict with such
Pledgor’s obligations or the rights of the Collateral Agent hereunder other than actions or agreements granting customary rights to others in the ordinary course of business. 
  
 SECTION 4.4. Other Financing Statements. It has not filed, nor authorized any third party to file (nor will there
be), any valid or effective financing statement (or similar statement, instrument of registration or public notice under the law of any jurisdiction) covering or purporting to cover any interest of any kind in the Pledged Collateral, except such as
have been filed in favor of the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement or in favor of any holder of a Permitted Collateral Lien or with respect to such Permitted Collateral Lien or financing statements or public notices relating to the
termination statements listed on Schedule 9 to the Perfection Certificate. No Pledgor shall execute, authorize or permit to be filed in any public office any financing statement (or similar statement, instrument of registration or public
notice under the law of any jurisdiction) relating to any Pledged Collateral, except financing statements and other statements and instruments filed or to be filed in respect of and covering the security interests granted by such Pledgor to the
holder of the Permitted Liens and Liens described on Schedule 7.1(c) to the Credit Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 4.5. Chief Executive Office; Change of Name; Jurisdiction of Organization. The Collateral Agent may rely on advice of counsel as to whether
any or all UCC 
  

 -18- 

 financing statements of the Pledgors need to be amended as a result of any of the changes described in
Section 6.14(a) of the Credit Agreement. If any Pledgor fails to provide information to the Collateral Agent about such changes on a timely basis, the Collateral Agent shall not be liable or responsible to any party for any failure to
maintain a perfected security interest in such Pledgor’s property constituting Pledged Collateral, for which the Collateral Agent needed to have information relating to such changes. The Collateral Agent shall have no duty to inquire about such
changes if any Pledgor does not inform the Collateral Agent of such changes, the parties acknowledging and agreeing that it would not be feasible or practical for the Collateral Agent to search for information on such changes if such information is
not provided by any Pledgor. 
  
 SECTION 4.6. Location of
Inventory and Equipment. It shall not move any Equipment or Inventory with an aggregate value in excess of $250,000 to any location, other than any location that is listed in the relevant Schedules to the Perfection Certificate, unless it shall
have given the Collateral Agent not less than 30 days’ prior written notice (in the form of an Officers’ Certificate) of its intention so to do, clearly describing such new location and providing such other information in connection
therewith as the Collateral Agent may request; provided that in no event shall any Equipment or Inventory be moved to any location outside of the continental United States. 
  
 SECTION 4.7. Due Authorization and Issuance. All of the Pledged Securities existing on the date hereof have been, and
to the extent any Pledged Securities are hereafter issued, such Pledged Securities will be, upon such issuance, duly authorized, validly issued and fully paid and non-assessable. 
  
 SECTION 4.8. Consents, etc. In the event that the Collateral Agent desires to exercise any remedies, voting or
consensual rights or attorney-in-fact powers set forth in this Agreement and determines it necessary to obtain any approvals or consents of any Governmental Authority or any other person therefor, then, upon the reasonable request of the Collateral
Agent, such Pledgor agrees to use its best efforts to assist and aid the Collateral Agent to obtain as soon as practicable any necessary approvals or consents for the exercise of any such remedies, rights and powers. 
  
 SECTION 4.9. Pledged Collateral. All information set forth herein,
including the schedules hereto, and all information contained in any documents, schedules and lists heretofore delivered to any Secured Party, including the Perfection Certificate and the schedules thereto, in connection with this Agreement, in each
case, relating to the Pledged Collateral, is accurate and complete in all material respects. The Pledged Collateral described on the schedules to the Perfection Certificate constitutes all of the property of such type of Pledged Collateral owned or
held by the Pledgors. 
  
 SECTION 4.10. Insurance. In the
event that the proceeds of any insurance claim are paid to any Pledgor after the Collateral Agent has exercised its right to foreclose after an Event of Default, such Net Cash Proceeds shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent
and immediately after receipt thereof shall be paid to the Collateral Agent for application in accordance with the Credit Agreement.

Each Pledgor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting and other consensual rights pertaining to the Securities Collateral or any part thereof for any purpose not inconsistent with the terms or purposes hereof, the Credit Agreement or any

occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent shall be deemed without further action or formality to have granted to each 
  

 -20- 

 Pledgor all necessary consents relating to voting rights and shall, if necessary, upon written request of any
Pledgor and at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors, from time to time execute and deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered) to such Pledgor all such instruments as such Pledgor may reasonably request in order to permit such Pledgor to

consensual rights. 
  
 (ii) each Pledgor agrees
not accept or to receive Distributions which it would otherwise be authorized to receive and retain pursuant to Section 5.2(a)(ii) and all such distributions shall thereupon be delivered to the Collateral Agent, which shall thereupon

documents or other writings (other than the Constitutive Documents and certificates representing such Pledged Securities that have been delivered to the Collateral Agent) which evidence any Pledged Securities of such Pledgor.

Pledged Securities in such partnership, limited liability company or other entity and, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to the transfer of such Pledged Securities to the Collateral Agent or its nominee and to
the substitution of the Collateral Agent or its nominee as a substituted partner, shareholder or member in such partnership, limited liability company or other entity with all the rights, powers and duties of a general partner, limited partner,
shareholder or member, as the case may be. 
  
 ARTICLE VI

  
 CERTAIN PROVISIONS CONCERNING INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY COLLATERAL

  
 SECTION 6.1. Grant of Intellectual Property License.
For the purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent, during the continuance of an Event of Default, to exercise rights and remedies under Article IX hereof at such time as the Collateral Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights
and remedies, and for no other purpose, each Pledgor hereby grants to the Collateral Agent, to the extent such Pledgor has the right to do so without breaching or violating any Contract, law or regulation, without violations of any applicable
Intellectual Property License, an irrevocable, non-exclusive license to use, assign, license or sublicense any of the Intellectual Property Collateral now owned or hereafter acquired by such Pledgor, wherever the same may be located. Such license
shall include, during such circumstances, reasonable access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer programs used for the compilation or printout hereof. 
  
 SECTION 6.2. Protection of Collateral Agent’s Security. On a
continuing basis, each Pledgor shall, at its sole cost and expense, (i) promptly following its becoming aware thereof, notify the Collateral Agent of any adverse determination in any proceeding or the institution of any proceeding in any
federal, state or local court or administrative body or in the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office regarding any Material Intellectual Property Collateral, such Pledgor’s right to register such
Material Intellectual Property Collateral or its right to keep and maintain such registration in full force and effect, (ii) maintain all Material Intellectual Property Collateral in a manner consistent with commercially reasonable judgment,
not permit to lapse or become abandoned any Material Intellectual 
  

 -22- 

 Property Collateral, and not settle or compromise any pending or future litigation or administrative proceeding with
respect to any such Material Intellectual Property Collateral, in any case except as shall be consistent with commercially reasonable judgment, (iii) upon such Pledgor obtaining knowledge thereof, promptly notify the Collateral Agent in writing
of any event which may be reasonably expected to materially and adversely affect the value or utility of any Material Intellectual Property Collateral or the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent in relation thereto including a levy or threat
of levy or any legal process against any Material Intellectual Property Collateral, (iv) not license any Intellectual Property Collateral other than licenses entered into by such Pledgor in, or incidental to, the ordinary course of business or
otherwise in such Pledgor’s commercially reasonable judgment, or amend or permit the amendment of any of the licenses without the consent of the Collateral Agent, except in a manner consistent with such Pledgor’s commercially reasonable
judgment and that would not materially impair the value of any Material Intellectual Property Collateral or the Lien on and security interest in any Material Intellectual Property Collateral created therein hereby, (v) diligently keep
reasonable records respecting all Intellectual Property Collateral consistent with such Pledgor’s past practices with respect to such records and (vi) furnish to the Collateral Agent from time to time upon the Collateral Agent’s
reasonable request therefor reasonably detailed statements and amended schedules further identifying and describing the Intellectual Property Collateral and such other materials evidencing or reports pertaining to any Intellectual Property
Collateral as the Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably request. 
  
 SECTION 6.3. After-Acquired Property. If any Pledgor shall at any time after the date hereof (i) obtain any rights to any additional Intellectual Property Collateral or (ii) become entitled to the
benefit of any additional Intellectual Property Collateral or any renewal or extension thereof, including any reissue, division, continuation, or continuation-in-part of any Intellectual Property Collateral, or any improvement on any Intellectual
Property Collateral, the provisions hereof shall automatically apply thereto and any such item enumerated in the preceding clause (i) or (ii) shall automatically constitute Intellectual Property Collateral as if such would have constituted
Intellectual Property Collateral at the time of execution hereof and be subject to the Lien and security interest created by this Agreement without further action by any party. Each Pledgor shall promptly provide to the Collateral Agent written
notice of any of the foregoing with respect to any additional Material Intellectual Property, and confirm the attachment of the Lien and security interest created by this Agreement to any rights described in clauses (i) and (ii) above by
execution of an instrument in form reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent and the filing of any instruments or statements as shall be reasonably necessary to create, preserve, protect or perfect the Collateral Agent’s security interest
in such Intellectual Property Collateral. Further, each Pledgor authorizes the Collateral Agent to modify this Agreement by amending Schedules 12(a) and 12(b) to the Perfection Certificate to include any Intellectual Property
Collateral of such Pledgor acquired or arising after the date hereof. 
  
 SECTION 6.4. Litigation. Unless there shall occur and be continuing any Event of Default, each Pledgor shall have the right (exercisable in such Pledgor’s commercially reasonable judgment) to commence and prosecute in its own
name, as the party in interest, for its own benefit and at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors, such applications for protection of 
  

 -23- 

 the Intellectual Property Collateral and suits, proceedings or other actions to prevent the infringement, counterfeiting,
unfair competition, dilution, diminution in value or other damage as are necessary to protect the Intellectual Property Collateral. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and the exercise of the Collateral Agent of
its remedies pursuant to Article IX hereof with respect to the Pledged Collateral, the Collateral Agent shall have the right but shall in no way be obligated to file applications for protection of the Intellectual Property Collateral and/or
bring suit in the name of any Pledgor, the Collateral Agent or the Secured Parties to enforce the Pledgor’s rights in any Material Intellectual Property Collateral and any license thereunder. In the event of such suit, each Pledgor shall, at
the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, do any and all lawful acts and execute any and all reasonable documents requested by the Collateral Agent in aid of such enforcement and the Pledgors shall promptly reimburse and indemnify the
Collateral Agent for all costs and expenses reasonably incurred by the Collateral Agent in the exercise of its rights under this Section 6.4 in accordance with Section 11.5 of the Credit Agreement. In the event that the
Collateral Agent shall elect not to bring suit to enforce the Pledgor’s rights in any Material Intellectual Property Collateral, each Pledgor agrees, at the reasonable written request of the Collateral Agent, to take all commercially reasonable
actions necessary, whether by suit, proceeding or other action, to prevent the infringement, counterfeiting, unfair competition, dilution, diminution in value of or other damage to any Material Intellectual Property Collateral by any person.

  
 ARTICLE VII 
  
 CERTAIN PROVISIONS CONCERNING RECEIVABLES 
  
 SECTION 7.1. Maintenance of Records. Each Pledgor shall keep and
maintain at its own cost and expense complete records of each Receivable, in a manner consistent with prudent business practice, including records of all payments received, all credits granted thereon, all merchandise returned and all other
documentation relating thereto. Each Pledgor shall, at such Pledgor’s sole cost and expense, upon the Collateral Agent’s demand made at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, deliver all tangible
evidence of Receivables, including all documents evidencing Receivables and any books and records relating thereto to the Collateral Agent or to its representatives (copies of which evidence and books and records may be retained by such Pledgor).
Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Collateral Agent may transfer a full and complete copy of any Pledgor’s books, records, credit information, reports, memoranda and all other writings relating to the
Receivables to and for the use by any person that has acquired or is contemplating acquisition of an interest in the Receivables or the Collateral Agent’s security interest therein without the consent of any Pledgor provided that such person
agrees to confidentiality provisions substantially similar to those set forth in Section 11.15 of the Credit Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 7.2. Legend. Each Pledgor shall legend, at the request of the Collateral Agent and in form and manner satisfactory to the Collateral Agent,
the Receivables and the other books, records and documents of such Pledgor evidencing or pertaining to the Receivables 
  

 -24- 

 with an appropriate reference to the fact that the Receivables have been assigned to the Collateral Agent for the benefit
of the Secured Parties and that the Collateral Agent has a security interest therein. 
  
 SECTION 7.3. Modification of Terms, etc. No Pledgor shall rescind or cancel any obligations evidenced by any Receivable or modify any term thereof or make any adjustment with respect thereto except in the
ordinary course of business consistent with prudent business practice, or extend or renew any such obligations except in the ordinary course of business consistent with prudent business practice or compromise or settle any dispute, claim, suit or
legal proceeding relating thereto or sell any Receivable or interest therein except in the ordinary course of business consistent with prudent business practice without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent. Each Pledgor shall timely
fulfill all obligations on its part to be fulfilled under or in connection with the Receivables except to the extent such Pledgor determines such action is not appropriate or advisable consistent with prudent business practice in the ordinary course
of business. 
  
 SECTION 7.4. Collection. Each Pledgor
shall cause to be collected from the Account Debtor of each of the Receivables, as and when due in the ordinary course of business and consistent with prudent business practice (including Receivables that are delinquent, such Receivables to be
collected in accordance with generally accepted commercial collection procedures), any and all amounts owing under or on account of such Receivable, and apply forthwith upon receipt thereof all such amounts as are so collected to the outstanding
balance of such Receivable, except that any Pledgor may, with respect to a Receivable, allow in the ordinary course of business (i) a refund or credit due as a result of returned or damaged or defective merchandise and (ii) such extensions
of time to pay amounts due in respect of Receivables and such other modifications of payment terms or settlements in respect of Receivables as shall be commercially reasonable in the circumstances, all in accordance with such Pledgor’s ordinary
course of business consistent with its collection practices as in effect from time to time. The costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) of collection, in any case, whether incurred by any Pledgor, the Collateral Agent or any Secured
Party, shall be paid by the Pledgors. 
  
 ARTICLE VIII 

 
 TRANSFERS 
  
 SECTION 8.1. Transfers of Pledged Collateral. No Pledgor shall sell, convey, assign or otherwise dispose of, or grant
any option with respect to, any of the Pledged Collateral pledged by it hereunder except as expressly permitted by the Credit Agreement. 
  

 -25- 

 ARTICLE IX 
  
 REMEDIES 
  
 SECTION 9.1. Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Collateral Agent may from time to time exercise
in respect of the Pledged Collateral, in addition to the other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, the following remedies: 
  
 (i) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, personally, or by agents or attorneys, immediately take possession of the Pledged Collateral or any
part thereof, from any Pledgor or any other person who then has possession of any part thereof with or without notice or process of law, and for that purpose may enter upon any Pledgor’s premises where any of the Pledged Collateral is located,
remove such Pledged Collateral, remain present at such premises to receive copies of all communications and remittances relating to the Pledged Collateral and use in connection with such removal and possession any and all services, supplies, aids
and other facilities of any Pledgor; 
  
 (ii) Demand, sue for,
collect or receive any money or property at any time payable or receivable in respect of the Pledged Collateral including instructing the obligor or obligors on any agreement, instrument or other obligation constituting part of the Pledged
Collateral to make any payment required by the terms of such agreement, instrument or other obligation directly to the Collateral Agent, and in connection with any of the foregoing, compromise, settle, extend the time for payment and make other
modifications with respect thereto; provided, however, that in the event that any such payments are made directly to any Pledgor, prior to receipt by any such obligor of such instruction, such Pledgor shall segregate all amounts
received pursuant thereto in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and shall promptly (but in no event later than one (1) Business Day after receipt thereof) pay such amounts to the Collateral Agent; 
  
 (iii) Subject to Section 6.1, sell, assign, grant a license to
use or otherwise liquidate, or direct any Pledgor to sell, assign, grant a license to use or otherwise liquidate, any and all investments made in whole or in part with the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, and take possession of the proceeds
of any such sale, assignment, license or liquidation; 
  
 (iv)
Take possession of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, by directing any Pledgor in writing to deliver the same to the Collateral Agent at any place or places so designated by the Collateral Agent, in which event such Pledgor shall at its own
expense: (A) forthwith cause the same to be moved to the place or places designated by the Collateral Agent and therewith delivered to the Collateral Agent, (B) store and keep any Pledged Collateral so delivered to the Collateral Agent at
such place or places pending further action by the Collateral Agent and (C) while the Pledged Collateral shall be so stored and kept, provide such security and maintenance services as shall be necessary to protect the same and to preserve and
maintain them in good condition. Each Pledgor’s obligation to deliver the Pledged Collateral as contemplated 
  

 -26- 

 plated in this Section 9.1(iv) is of the essence hereof. Upon application to a court of equity having
jurisdiction, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to a decree requiring specific performance by any Pledgor of such obligation; 
  
 (v) Withdraw all moneys, instruments, securities and other property in any bank, financial securities, deposit or other account of any Pledgor
constituting Pledged Collateral for application to the Secured Obligations as provided in Article X hereof; 
  
 (vi) Retain and apply the Distributions to the Secured Obligations as provided in Article X hereof; 
  
 (vii) Exercise any and all rights as beneficial and legal owner of the
Pledged Collateral, including perfecting assignment of and exercising any and all voting, consensual and other rights and powers with respect to any Pledged Collateral; and 
  
 (viii) Subject to Section 6.1, exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured party on default under the UCC,
and the Collateral Agent may also in its sole discretion, without notice except as specified in Section 9.2 hereof, sell, assign or grant a license to use the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or
private sale, at any exchange, broker’s board or at any of the Collateral Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as the Collateral Agent may deem
commercially reasonable. The Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party or any of their respective Affiliates may be the purchaser, licensee, assignee or recipient of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof at any such public sale, and to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable law, private sale and shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Pledged Collateral sold, assigned or licensed at such
sale, to use and apply any of the Secured Obligations owed to such person as a credit on account of the purchase price of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof payable by such person at such sale. Each purchaser, assignee, licensee or recipient
at any such sale shall acquire the property sold, assigned or licensed absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of any Pledgor, and each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, all rights of redemption, stay and/or
appraisal which it now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof
regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Collateral Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and
place to which it was so adjourned. Each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims against the Collateral Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof may have
been sold, assigned or licensed at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Pledged Collateral to more than one
offeree. 
  
 SECTION 9.2. Notice of Sale. Each Pledgor
acknowledges and agrees that, to the extent notice of sale or other disposition of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof shall be 
  

 -27- 

 required by law, ten (10) days’ prior notice to such Pledgor of the time and place of any public sale or of the
time after which any private sale or other intended disposition is to take place shall be commercially reasonable notification of such matters. No notification need be given to any Pledgor if it has signed, after the occurrence of an Event of
Default, a statement renouncing or modifying any right to notification of sale or other intended disposition. 
  
 SECTION 9.3. Waiver of Notice and Claims. Each Pledgor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, notice or judicial hearing
in connection with the Collateral Agent’s taking possession or the Collateral Agent’s disposition of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, including any and all prior notice and hearing for any prejudgment remedy or remedies and any
such right which such Pledgor would otherwise have under law, and each Pledgor hereby further waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law: (i) all damages occasioned by such taking of possession, (ii) all other requirements
as to the time, place and terms of sale or other requirements with respect to the enforcement of the Collateral Agent’s rights hereunder and (iii) all rights of redemption, appraisal, valuation, stay, extension or moratorium now or
hereafter in force under any applicable law. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any incorrect or improper payment made pursuant to this Article IX in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the
Collateral Agent. Any sale of, or the grant of options to purchase, or any other realization upon, any Pledged Collateral shall operate to divest all right, title, interest, claim and demand, either at law or in equity, of the applicable Pledgor
therein and thereto, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against such Pledgor and against any and all persons claiming or attempting to claim the Pledged Collateral so sold, optioned or realized upon, or any part thereof, from,
through or under such Pledgor. 
  
 SECTION 9.4. Certain Sales
of Pledged Collateral. 
  
 (a) Each Pledgor recognizes that,
by reason of certain prohibitions contained in law, rules, regulations or orders of any Governmental Authority, the Collateral Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Pledged Collateral, to limit purchasers to
those who meet the requirements of such Governmental Authority. Each Pledgor acknowledges that any such sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Collateral Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions,
and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such restricted sale shall not be deemed to have not been made in a commercially reasonable manner solely because it was conducted as a private sale and that, except as may be required by
applicable law, the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales. 
  
 (b) Each Pledgor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and applicable state securities laws, the Collateral
Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Securities Collateral and Investment Property, to limit purchasers to persons who will agree, among other things, to acquire such Securities Collateral or Investment Property
for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Pledgor acknowledges that any such private sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Collateral Agent than those obtainable through
a public sale without such restrictions (including a 
  

 -28- 

 public offering made pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act), and, notwithstanding such
circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall not be deemed to have not been made in a commercially reasonable manner solely because it was conducted as a private sale, and that the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in
public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of any Securities Collateral or Investment Property for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register it for a form of public sale requiring registration under the Securities
Act or under applicable state securities laws, even if such issuer would agree to do so. 
  
 (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Pledgor shall, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, at the reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Collateral
Agent, cause any registration, qualification statement or application under or compliance with any Federal or state securities law or laws to be prepared and filed with respect to all or any part of the Securities Collateral as soon as practicable
and at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors. Each Pledgor will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration to be effected (and be kept effective) and will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such
qualification and compliance to be effected (and be kept effective) as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of such Securities Collateral including registration under the Securities Act (or any similar
statute then in effect), appropriate qualifications under applicable blue sky or other state securities laws and appropriate compliance with all other requirements of any Governmental Authority. Each Pledgor shall use its commercially reasonable
efforts to cause the Collateral Agent to be kept advised in writing as to the progress of each such registration, qualification or compliance and as to the completion thereof, shall furnish to the Collateral Agent such number of prospectuses,
offering circulars or other documents incident thereto as the Collateral Agent from time to time may request, and shall indemnify and shall cause the issuer of the Securities Collateral to indemnify the Collateral Agent and all others participating
in the distribution of such Securities Collateral against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities caused by any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained therein (or in any related registration statement,
notification or the like) or by any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein (or in any related registration statement, notification or the like) a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading other than any such statement or omission made in reliance on, and in conformity with, written information provided to such Pledgor by Collateral Agent or any other participant in the distribution for inclusion therein. 
  
 (d) If the Collateral Agent determines to exercise its right to sell any or
all of the Securities Collateral or Investment Property, upon written request, the applicable Pledgor shall from time to time furnish to the Collateral Agent all such information as the Collateral Agent may request in order to determine the number
of securities included in the Securities Collateral or Investment Property which may be sold by the Collateral Agent as exempt transactions under the Securities Act and the rules of the SEC thereunder, as the same are from time to time in effect.

  
 (e) Each Pledgor further agrees that a breach of any of the
covenants contained in this Section 9.4 will cause irreparable injury to the Collateral Agent and the other Secured 
  

 -29- 

 cured Parties, that the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such
breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section 9.4 shall be specifically enforceable against such Pledgor, and such Pledgor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for
specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. 
  
 SECTION 9.5. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. 
  
 (a) No failure on the part of the Collateral Agent to exercise, no course of dealing with respect to, and no delay on the part of the Collateral Agent in
exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power, privilege or remedy hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of
any other right, power, privilege or remedy; nor shall the Collateral Agent be required to look first to, enforce or exhaust any other security, collateral or guaranties. All rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative and are not exclusive
of any rights or remedies provided by law or otherwise available. 
  
 (b) In the event that the Collateral Agent shall have instituted any proceeding to enforce any right, power, privilege or remedy under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by foreclosure, sale, entry or otherwise, and such proceeding
shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Collateral Agent, then and in every such case, the Pledgors, the Collateral Agent and each other Secured Party shall be restored to their
respective former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the Pledged Collateral, and all rights, remedies, privileges and powers of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties shall continue as if no such proceeding had been
instituted. 
  
 SECTION 9.6. Certain Additional Actions
Regarding Intellectual Property. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, upon the written demand of the Collateral Agent, each Pledgor shall execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent an assignment or assignments of the
registered Patents, Trademarks and/or Copyrights and Goodwill and such other documents as are necessary or appropriate to carry out the intent and purposes hereof. Within five (5) Business Days of written notice thereafter from the Collateral
Agent, each Pledgor shall make available to the Collateral Agent, to the extent within such Pledgor’s power and authority, such personnel in such Pledgor’s employ on the date of the Event of Default as the Collateral Agent may reasonably
designate to permit such Pledgor to continue, directly or indirectly, to produce, advertise and sell the products and services sold by such Pledgor under the registered Patents, Trademarks and/or Copyrights, and such persons shall be available to
perform their prior functions on the Collateral Agent’s behalf.

 ARTICLE X 
  
 APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS 
  
 SECTION10.1 Application of Proceeds. The proceeds received by the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from or other realization
upon all or any part of the Pledged Collateral pursuant to the exercise by the Collateral Agent of its remedies shall be applied, together with any other sums then held by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement, in accordance with the
Credit Agreement. 
  
 ARTICLE XI 
  
 MISCELLANEOUS 
  
 SECTION 11.1. Concerning Collateral Agent. 
  
 (a) The Collateral Agent has been appointed as collateral agent pursuant to the Credit Agreement. The actions of the
Collateral Agent hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Credit Agreement. The Collateral Agent shall have the right hereunder to make demands, to give notices, to exercise or refrain from exercising any rights, and to take or refrain from
taking action (including the release or substitution of the Pledged Collateral), in accordance with this Agreement and the Credit Agreement. The Collateral Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact in connection herewith and shall not be liable
for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it in good faith. The Collateral Agent may resign and a successor Collateral Agent may be appointed in the manner provided in the Credit Agreement. Upon the
acceptance of any appointment as the Collateral Agent by a successor Collateral Agent, that successor Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent
under this Agreement, and the retiring Collateral Agent shall thereupon be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation, the provisions hereof shall inure to its benefit as
to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Agreement while it was the Collateral Agent. 
  
 (b) The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Pledged Collateral in its possession if
such Pledged Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equivalent to that which the Collateral Agent, in its individual capacity, accords its own property consisting of similar instruments or interests, it being understood that neither the
Collateral Agent nor any of the Secured Parties shall have responsibility for (i) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relating to any Securities Collateral, whether
or not the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters or (ii) taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any person with respect to any Pledged Collateral. 
  

 -31- 

 (c) The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any written notice, statement, certificate, order
or other document or any telephone message believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper person, and, with respect to all matters pertaining to this Agreement and its duties hereunder, upon advice of
counsel selected by it. 
  
 (d) If any item of Pledged Collateral
also constitutes collateral granted to the Collateral Agent under any other deed of trust, mortgage, security agreement, pledge or instrument of any type, in the event of any conflict between the provisions hereof and the provisions of such other
deed of trust, mortgage, security agreement, pledge or instrument of any type in respect of such collateral, the Collateral Agent, in its sole discretion, shall select which provision or provisions shall control. 
  
 SECTION 11.2. Collateral Agent May Perform; Collateral Agent Appointed
Attorney-in-Fact. If any Pledgor shall fail to perform any covenants contained in this Agreement (including such Pledgor’s covenants to (i) pay the premiums in respect of all required insurance policies hereunder, (ii) pay and
discharge any taxes, assessments and special assessments, levies, fees and governmental charges imposed upon or assessed against, and landlords’, carriers’, mechanics’, workmen’s, repairmen’s, laborers’,
materialmen’s, suppliers’ and warehousemen’s Liens and other claims arising by operation of law against, all or any portion of the Pledged Collateral, (iii) make repairs, (iv) discharge Liens or (v) pay or perform any
obligations of such Pledgor under any Pledged Collateral) or if any representation or warranty on the part of any Pledgor contained herein shall be breached, the Collateral Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) do the same or cause it to be done
or remedy any such breach, and may expend funds for such purpose; provided, however, that (a) in the case of clauses (ii) and (iv) the Collateral Agent shall not make such payment or discharge any Lien arising out of any
tax, assessment, charge or claim that is being contested in good faith and by proper proceedings and as to which appropriate reserves are being maintained in accordance with GAAP, unless and until such Lien attaches to such Pledgor’s property
and becomes enforceable against such Pledgor’s other creditors and subjects the property to a substantial risk of forfeiture and (b) the Collateral Agent shall in no event be bound to inquire into the validity of any tax, Lien, imposition
or other obligation which such Pledgor fails to pay or perform as and when required hereby and which such Pledgor does not contest in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement. Any and all amounts so expended by the Collateral Agent
shall be paid by the Pledgors in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.5 of the Credit Agreement. Neither the provisions of this Section 11.2 nor any action taken by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the provisions of
this Section 11.2 shall prevent any such failure to observe any covenant contained in this Agreement nor any breach of representation or warranty from constituting an Event of Default. Each Pledgor hereby appoints the Collateral Agent
its attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority in the place and stead of such Pledgor and in the name of such Pledgor, or otherwise, from time to time in the Collateral Agent’s discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument
consistent with the terms of the Credit Agreement, this Agreement and the other Security Documents which the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof (but the Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to and
shall have no liability to such Pledgor or any third 
  

 -32- 

 party for failure to so do or take action). The foregoing grant of authority is a power of attorney coupled with an
interest and such appointment shall be irrevocable for the term hereof. Each Pledgor hereby ratifies all that such attorney shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. 
  
 SECTION 11.3. Continuing Security Interest; Assignment. This Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in
the Pledged Collateral and shall (i) be binding upon the Pledgors, their respective successors and assigns and (ii) inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent hereunder, to the benefit of the Collateral Agent and
the other Secured Parties and each of their respective successors, transferees and assigns. No other persons (including any other creditor of any Pledgor) shall have any interest herein or any right or benefit with respect hereto. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing clause (ii), any Secured Party may assign or otherwise transfer any indebtedness held by it secured by this Agreement to any other person, and such other person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits
in respect thereof granted to such Secured Party, herein or otherwise, subject however, to the provisions of the Credit Agreement and, in the case of a Secured Party that is a party to a Specified Swap Agreement or Operating Indebtedness Agreement,
such Specified Swap Agreement or Operating Indebtedness Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 11.4. Termination; Release. (a) When all the Secured Obligations have been paid in full (other than inchoate indemnification and cost reimbursement obligations not then due) and the Commitments of the Lenders to make any
Loan or to issue any Letter of Credit under the Credit Agreement shall have expired or been sooner terminated and all Letters of Credit have been terminated or cash collateralized in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement, this
Agreement shall terminate. Upon termination of this Agreement the Pledged Collateral shall be released from the Lien of this Agreement and upon the sale by any Pledgor of any Pledged Collateral in accordance with Section 7.5 of the Credit
Agreement, such Pledged Collateral shall be released from the Lien of this Agreement. Upon such release or any release of Pledged Collateral or any part thereof in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall,
upon the request and at the sole cost and expense of the Pledgors, assign, transfer and deliver to Pledgor, against receipt and without recourse to or warranty by the Collateral Agent except as to the fact that the Collateral Agent has not
encumbered the released assets, such of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof to be released (in the case of a release) as may be in possession of the Collateral Agent and as shall not have been sold or otherwise applied pursuant to the terms
hereof, and, with respect to any other Pledged Collateral, proper documents and instruments (including UCC-3 termination financing statements or releases) acknowledging the termination hereof or the release of such Pledged Collateral, as the case
may be. 
  
 (b) Notwithstanding Section 2.1, in
connection with the granting of a Lien permitted by Section 7.1(d) of the Credit Agreement in any Real Property or Equipment owned by a Pledgor or with the disposition of Receivables Assets of a Pledgor permitted by
Section 7.5(i) of the Credit Agreement pursuant to a Permitted Receivables Financing, the Collateral Agent shall, at such Pledgor’s request if required by the lender or lessor providing Debt to be secured by such Lien or such
Receivables Assets, as applicable, at such Pledgor’s expense, execute 
  

 -33- 

 and deliver such documents as such Pledgor shall reasonably request to evidence the release of such item or items of
Pledged Collateral from the Lien of this Agreement; provided, however, that such Pledgor shall have delivered to the Collateral Agent, at least three Business Days prior to the date of the proposed realease, a written request decribing
the items of Collateral, together with a form of release for execution by the Collateral Agent, and a certificate of the chief financial officer of such Pledgor to the effect that the transaction is in compliance with the Credit Agreement and as to
such other matters as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request. 
  
 SECTION 11.5. Modification in Writing. No amendment, modification, supplement, termination or waiver of or to any provision hereof, nor consent to any departure by any Pledgor therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be
made in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and unless in writing and signed by the Collateral Agent. Any amendment, modification or supplement of or to any provision hereof, any waiver of any provision hereof and any consent to any
departure by any Pledgor from the terms of any provision hereof in each case shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which made or given. Except where notice is specifically required by this Agreement or any
other document evidencing the Secured Obligations, no notice to or demand on any Pledgor in any case shall entitle any Pledgor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. 
  
 SECTION 11.6. Notices. Unless otherwise provided herein or in the
Credit Agreement, any notice or other communication herein required or permitted to be given shall be given in the manner and become effective as set forth in the Credit Agreement, as to any Pledgor, addressed to it at the address of the Borrower
set forth in the Credit Agreement and as to the Collateral Agent, addressed to it at the address set forth in the Credit Agreement, or in each case at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other party
complying as to delivery with the terms of this Section 11.6. 
  
 SECTION 11.7. Governing Law, Consent to Jurisdiction and Service of Process; Waiver of Jury Trial. Sections 11.10 , 11.11 and 11.12 of the Credit Agreement are incorporated herein,
mutatis mutandis, as if a part hereof. 
  
 SECTION 11.8.
Severability of Provisions. Any provision hereof which is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without
invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity, legality or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
  
 SECTION 11.9. Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements hereto may be executed in any number
of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute one and the same agreement. 
  

 -34- 

 SECTION 11.10. Business Days. In the event any time period or any date provided in this Agreement
ends or falls on a day other than a Business Day, then such time period shall be deemed to end and such date shall be deemed to fall on the next succeeding Business Day, and performance herein may be made on such Business Day, with the same force
and effect as if made on such other day. 
  
 SECTION 11.11. No
Credit for Payment of Taxes or Imposition. Such Pledgor shall not be entitled to any credit against the principal, premium, if any, or interest payable under the Credit Agreement, and such Pledgor shall not be entitled to any credit against any
other sums which may become payable under the terms thereof or hereof, by reason of the payment of any Tax on the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof. 
  
 SECTION 11.12. No Claims Against Collateral Agent. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall constitute any consent or request by the Collateral
Agent, express or implied, for the performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in respect of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof, nor as giving any Pledgor any right, power or authority to
contract for or permit the performance of any labor or services or the furnishing of any materials or other property in such fashion as would permit the making of any claim against the Collateral Agent in respect thereof or any claim that any Lien
based on the performance of such labor or services or the furnishing of any such materials or other property is prior to the Lien hereof. 
  
 SECTION 11.13. No Release. Nothing set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, nor the exercise by the Collateral Agent of any of the
rights or remedies hereunder, shall relieve any Pledgor from the performance of any term, covenant, condition or agreement on such Pledgor’s part to be performed or observed under or in respect of any of the Pledged Collateral or from any
liability to any person under or in respect of any of the Pledged Collateral or shall impose any obligation on the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to perform or observe any such term, covenant, condition or agreement on such
Pledgor’s part to be so performed or observed or shall impose any liability on the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party for any act or omission on the part of such Pledgor relating thereto or for any breach of any representation or
warranty on the part of such Pledgor contained in this Agreement, the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or under or in respect of the Pledged Collateral or made in connection herewith or therewith. Anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding, neither the Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under any contracts, agreements and other documents included in the Pledged Collateral by reason of this Agreement, nor shall the
Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of any Pledgor thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce any such contract, agreement or other document included in the Pledged
Collateral hereunder. The obligations of each Pledgor contained in this Section 11.13 shall survive the termination hereof and the discharge of such Pledgor’s other obligations under this Agreement, the Credit Agreement and the
other Loan Documents. 
  
 SECTION 11.14. Obligations
Absolute. All obligations of each Pledgor hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of: 
  
 (i) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment, composition, liquidation or the like of any other Pledgor;

  

 -35- 

 (ii) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement, any other Loan
Document, any Specified Swap Agreement, any Operating Indebtedness Agreement or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto; 
  
 (iii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Secured Obligations, or any other
amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document, any Specified Swap Agreement, any Operating Indebtedness Agreement or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto; 
  
 (iv) any pledge, exchange, release or non-perfection of any
other collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to any departure from any guarantee, for all or any of the Secured Obligations; 
  
 (v) any exercise, non-exercise or waiver of any right, remedy, power or privilege under or in respect hereof, the Credit Agreement, any
other Loan Document, any Specified Swap Agreement or any Operating Indebtedness Agreement except as specifically set forth in a waiver granted pursuant to the provisions of Section 11.5 hereof; or 
  
 (vi) any other circumstances which might otherwise
constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Pledgor.
