Corporate Bonus Plan

 Exhibit 10.1 
  
 RENOVIS, INC. CORPORATE BONUS PLAN 
  
 Purpose: 
  
 The terms of the Renovis, Inc. (the “Company”) Corporate Bonus Plan (the “Plan”) have been established to reward the Company’s executive officers
and other employees for assisting the Company in achieving its operational goals through exemplary performance. Under the Plan, cash bonuses, if any, will be based on both the achievement of specified individual and corporate goals as well as a
review of personal performance, which is determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee”) and/or the Board of Directors (the “Board”). 
  
 Determination of 2005 Cash Bonuses: 
  
 Target cash bonuses for executive officers (including the Chief Executive Officer) under the
Plan for 2005 range from 30% to a maximum of 50% of the recipient’s base salary. Actual bonuses will be based on the achievement of objective Company and individual performance goals and may be higher or lower than targeted amounts according to
a pre-determined formula that will be applied by the Compensation Committee. The objective Company performance goals will be based on meeting certain goals with respect to the Company’s financial performance, clinical development of product
candidates, identification of new product candidates for preclinical development and entering into collaborations with respect to current or potential product candidates, as well as other Company performance goals to be determined by the
Compensation Committee. The Board and Compensation Committee reserve the right to modify these goals, amounts and criteria at any time.EXHIBIT 10.1

reduced to reflect such lesser amount so borrowed. 
  
 2.4.
Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the principal amount of the Loan of such Lender in installments according to the
amortization schedule set forth in Section 2.3 (or on such earlier date on which the Loans become due and payable pursuant to Section 7). The Borrower hereby further agrees to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Loans from time to
time outstanding from the Closing Date until payment in full thereof at the rates per annum, and on the dates, set forth in Section 2.10. 
  
 (b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender
resulting from the Loan of such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement. 
  
 (c) The Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Borrower, shall maintain the Register pursuant to Section 9.6(d), and a
subaccount therein for each Lender, in which shall be recorded (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder and any Note evidencing such Loan, the Type of such Loan and each 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) both the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower and each Lender’s share thereof. 

 
 (d) The entries made in the Register and the accounts of each Lender
maintained pursuant to Section 2.4(b) shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower therein recorded; provided, however, that the
Register shall control in the event of conflict; provided, further, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain the Register or any such account, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the
obligation of the Borrower to repay (with applicable interest) the Loans made to the Borrower by such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
  
 (e) The Borrower agrees that, upon the request to the Administrative Agent by any Lender, the Borrower will promptly execute and deliver to such Lender a
promissory note of 

 
the Borrower evidencing the Loan of such Lender, substantially in the form of Exhibit F (a “Note”), with appropriate insertions as to date
and principal amount; provided, that delivery of Notes shall not be a condition precedent to the occurrence of the Closing Date or the making of the Loans on the Closing Date. 
  
 2.5. Fees, etc. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Syndication Agent the fees in the amounts and on the dates
previously agreed to in writing by the Borrower and the Syndication Agent. 
  
 (b) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent the fees in the amounts and on the dates from time to time agreed to in writing by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. 
  
 2.6. Optional Prepayments. (a) The Borrower may not optionally prepay
the Loans at any time prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date. The Borrower may at any time and from time to time on or after the first anniversary of the Closing Date prepay the Loans, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty
(except as otherwise provided herein), upon irrevocable notice delivered to the Administrative Agent no later than 11:00 A.M., New York City time, three Business Days prior thereto in the case of Eurodollar Loans and no later than 11:00 A.M., New
York City time, one Business Day prior thereto in the case of Base Rate Loans, which notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and whether such prepayment is of Eurodollar Loans or Base Rate Loans; provided, 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 any amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.16. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly
notify each Lender thereof. If any such notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with accrued interest to such date on the amount prepaid. Partial prepayments of Loans
shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple thereof. 
  
 (b) Each optional prepayment in respect of the Loans on or prior to the fourth anniversary of the Closing Date shall be accompanied by a prepayment fee equal to (i) if such prepayment is made on or after the first
anniversary of the Closing Date (or on or after the Closing Date in the case of a prepayment upon a Change of Control) and prior to the second anniversary of the Closing Date, 3% of the principal amount that is the subject of such prepayment, (ii)
if such prepayment is made on or after the second anniversary of the Closing Date and prior to the third anniversary of the Closing Date, 2% of the principal amount that is the subject of such prepayment and (iii) if such prepayment is made on or
after the third anniversary of the Closing Date and on or prior to the fourth anniversary of the Closing Date, 1% of the principal amount that is the subject of such prepayment. For purposes of this Section, any prepayment of the Loans upon the
refinancing thereof (whether with proceeds of equity or Indebtedness) or upon the occurrence of a Change of Control shall be deemed to be an optional prepayment. Any prepayment pursuant to Section 2.6(b) after the fourth anniversary of the Closing
Date may be made without premium or penalty. 
  
 2.7. Mandatory
Prepayments (a) Except for dispositions of Capital Stock of the Lingo Subsidiary in the Lingo Offering (which shall be governed by Section 2.7(b)), not less than 30 days prior to any day (each, an “Indenture Prepayment Date”) on
which an amount equal 

 
to all or any portion of the Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sale would be required by the Senior Note Indenture to be subject to an offer to purchase
outstanding notes of the Borrower, including the Senior Notes (the amount to be so applied, the “Asset Sale Prepayment Amount”), the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent telephonic notice (promptly confirmed in writing)
requesting that the Administrative Agent prepare and provide to each Lender a notice (each, an “Asset Sale Prepayment Option Notice”) as described below in this paragraph. As promptly as practicable after receiving such notice from
the Borrower, the Administrative Agent will send to each Lender an Asset Sale Prepayment Option Notice, which will include an offer by the Borrower to prepay, at par, without premium or penalty, on the date that is ten days prior to the Indenture
Prepayment Date, the Loan of such Lender by an amount equal to such Lender’s Percentage of the Asset Sale Prepayment Amount. Each Lender shall return a completed Asset Sale Prepayment Option Notice to the Administrative Agent no later than
three Business Days prior to the mandatory prepayment date specified in the applicable Asset Sale Prepayment Option Notice (each an “Asset Sale Mandatory Prepayment Date”), with the failure to so return such notice being deemed to
constitute a rejection of the relevant prepayment offer. On each Asset Sale Mandatory Prepayment Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Lenders the aggregate amount necessary to prepay that portion of the outstanding Loans in respect of which such
Lenders have accepted prepayment as described above in this paragraph. 
  
 (b) Not less than 10 days after the receipt by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries of any Net Cash Proceeds of the Lingo Offering (“Lingo Proceeds”), unless on or prior to such date the Borrower shall have executed and
delivered to the Administrative Agent a Lingo Investment Certificate in respect of 100% of the Lingo Proceeds, the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent telephonic notice (promptly confirmed in writing) requesting that the Administrative
Agent prepare and provide to each Lender a notice (a “Lingo Prepayment Option Notice”) as described below in this paragraph. As promptly as practicable after receiving such notice from the Borrower, the Administrative Agent will
send to each Lender a Lingo Prepayment Option Notice, which will include an offer by the Borrower to prepay on the date (the “Lingo Prepayment Date”) set forth in the Lingo Prepayment Option Notice (the Lingo Prepayment Date being
in any event not less than 20, and not more than 30, days after such Lingo Prepayment Option Notice is sent to the Lenders), the portion of the Loan of such Lender in an amount equal to such Lender’s Percentage of the amount of Lingo Proceeds
not covered by the Lingo Investment Certificate (the “Lingo Pro-Rata Prepayment Offer Amount”). Each Lender shall return a Lingo Prepayment Option Notice to the Administrative Agent completed to indicate acceptance of all, part or
none of the Lingo Pro-Rata Prepayment Offer Amount no later than three Business Days prior to the Lingo Prepayment Date, with the failure to so return such notice being deemed to constitute a rejection of the prepayment offer. On the Lingo
Prepayment Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Lenders the aggregate amount necessary to prepay, consistent with the terms hereof, that portion of the outstanding Loans in respect of which such Lenders have accepted prepayment as described above in
this paragraph. 
  
 (c) Each prepayment of a Loan pursuant to this
Section 2.7 shall be applied to the remaining installments thereof, ratably in accordance with the outstanding amounts thereof. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.10. 
  
 (d) Any prepayment pursuant to Section 2.7(b) on or prior to the fourth
anniversary of the Closing Date shall be accompanied by a prepayment fee equal to (i) if such 

 
prepayment is made prior to the second anniversary of the Closing Date, 3% of the principal amount of such accepted prepayment, (ii) if such prepayment is
made on or after the second anniversary of the Closing Date and prior to the third anniversary of the Closing Date, 2% of the principal amount of such accepted prepayment and (iii) if such prepayment is made on or after the third anniversary of the
Closing Date and on or prior to the fourth anniversary of the Closing Date, 1% of the principal amount of such accepted prepayment. Any prepayment pursuant to Section 2.7(b) after the fourth anniversary of the Closing Date may be made without
premium or penalty. 
  
 2.8. Conversion and Continuation
Options. (a) The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert Eurodollar Loans to Base Rate Loans by giving the Administrative Agent at least two Business Days’ prior irrevocable notice of such election, provided that any such
conversion of Eurodollar Loans may be made only on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Loans by giving the Administrative Agent at least three
Business Days’ prior irrevocable notice of such election (which notice shall specify the length of the initial Interest Period therefor), provided that no Base Rate Loan may be converted into a Eurodollar Loan (i) when any Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent has, or the Required Lenders have, determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit such conversions or (ii) after the date that is one month prior to the final scheduled
maturity date of the Loans. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof. 
  
 (b) The Borrower may elect to continue any Eurodollar Loan as such upon the expiration of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto by giving
irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, 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 Loan, provided
that no Eurodollar Loan may be continued as such (i) when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent has, or the Required Lenders have, determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit such continuations
or (ii) after the date that is one month prior to the final scheduled maturity date of the Loans, 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 converted automatically to Base Rate 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. 
  
 2.9. Minimum
Amounts and Maximum Number of Eurodollar Tranches. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all borrowings, conversions, continuations and optional prepayments 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 ten Eurodollar Tranches shall be outstanding at any one time. 

 2.10. Interest Rates and Payment Dates. (a) Each Eurodollar Loan shall bear interest during each
Interest Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate determined for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin. 
  
 (b) Each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest for each day on which it is outstanding at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate in effect for such day
plus the Applicable Margin in effect for such day. 
  
 (c)
(i) If all or a portion of the principal amount of any Loan shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), all outstanding Loans (whether or not overdue) (to the extent legally permitted) shall bear
interest at a rate per annum that is equal to the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section plus 2%, and (ii) if all or a portion of any interest payable on any Loan or any other
amount payable hereunder (excluding principal) shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate then applicable to Base Rate
Loans plus 2%, in each case, with respect to clauses (i) and (ii) above, 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. 
  
 2.11. Computation of Interest and Fees. (a) Interest, fees and commissions payable pursuant hereto shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed, except that, with respect to
Base Rate Loans on which interest 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 Base Rate 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 2.10(a) or Section 2.10(b). 
  
 2.12. 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 Required Lenders 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 Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter. If such notice is given (x) any Eurodollar Loans requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as Base Rate Loans, (y) any Loans that
were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to Eurodollar Loans shall be continued as Base Rate Loans and (z) any outstanding Eurodollar Loans shall be converted, on the last day of the then current Interest Period with
respect thereto, to Base Rate Loans. Until such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent, no further Eurodollar Loans shall be made or continued as such, nor shall the Borrower have the right to convert Loans to Eurodollar Loans.

  
 2.13. Pro Rata Treatment and Payments. (a) Each
borrowing by the Borrower from the Lenders hereunder shall be made pro rata according to the respective Percentages of the Lenders. Each payment of interest in respect of the Loans and each payment in respect of fees payable hereunder
shall be applied to the amounts of such obligations owing to the Lenders pro rata according to the respective amounts then due and owing to the Lenders. 
  
 (b) Except as provided in Section 2.7, each payment on account of principal of the Loans shall be allocated among the
Lenders pro rata based on the principal amount of the Loans held by such Lenders, and shall be applied to the installments of the Loans in the order of the scheduled maturities of such installments and ratably in accordance with the
outstanding amounts thereof. Amounts prepaid on account of the Loans may not be reborrowed. 
  
 (c) The application of any payment of Loans (including optional and mandatory prepayments) shall be made, first, to Base Rate Loans and, second, to Eurodollar Loans. Each payment of the Loans shall be
accompanied by accrued interest to the date of such payment on the amount paid. 
  
 (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
12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, at the Payment Office, in Dollars and in immediately available funds. Any payment made by the Borrower after 12:00 Noon, New York
City time, on any Business Day shall be deemed to have been on the next following Business Day. 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 Base Rate Loans, on
demand, from the Borrower. 
  
 (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 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.

  
 (g) Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of payments on
behalf of Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute such payments to the Lender or Lenders entitled thereto, in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent. 
  
 2.14. 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 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 2.15 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 hereunder; 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 which such Lender deems to be material, of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining Eurodollar Loans, 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; provided that
the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this paragraph for any increased costs or reduced amounts paid or incurred more than six months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of such Lender’s
intention to claim compensation therefor; and provided further 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. If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section, 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, setting forth
in such notice, in reasonable detail, the basis and calculation of such amount. 
  
 (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 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; provided that the Borrower shall not be
required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this paragraph 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; and provided
further 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. 
  
 (c) A 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), setting forth in such certificate, in reasonable detail, the basis and calculation of such amount, shall be 

 
conclusive in the absence of manifest error. 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. 
  
 2.15. Taxes. (a) All payments made by the Borrower under this Agreement shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future income, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts,
duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority, excluding net income taxes and franchise taxes (imposed in lieu of net income taxes) imposed on any
Agent or any Lender as a result of a present or former connection between such Agent or such Lender and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such tax or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than
any such connection arising solely from such Agent’s or such Lender’s having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this Agreement or any other Loan Document). If any such non-excluded
taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings (“Non-Excluded Taxes”) or any Other Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to any Agent or any Lender hereunder, the amounts so payable to
such Agent or such Lender shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to such 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 (d) or (e) of this Section or (ii) that are United States withholding taxes imposed on amounts payable to such Lender at the time such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, 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 (a). 
  
 (b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant
Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 
  
 (c)
Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes are payable by the Borrower, as promptly as possible thereafter the Borrower shall send to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant Agent or Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy
of an original official receipt received by the Borrower showing payment thereof. If the Borrower fails to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Administrative Agent the
required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Borrower shall indemnify the Agents and the Lenders for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by any Agent or any Lender as a result of any such failure.
The agreements in this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
  
 (d) Each Lender (or Transferee) 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 G 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. 
  
 (e) 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 reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would not materially prejudice the legal
position of such Lender. 
  
 (f) If a Lender receives a refund,
credit or other tax benefit for which a payment has been made by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.15, which refund, credit or other tax benefit in the good faith judgment of such Lender is attributable to such payment made by the Borrower,
then such Lender shall reimburse the Borrower for such amount as such Lender determines in good faith to be the proportion of the refund, credit or other tax benefit as will leave it, after such reimbursement, in the same position it would have been
in if the payment of such tax and any payment by the Borrower under this Section 2.15 had not been made. 
  
 2.16. 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 after the Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or (c) the making of a prepayment or conversion 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. 
  
 2.17. Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation
or application thereof shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans as contemplated by this Agreement, (a) the commitment of such Lender hereunder to make Eurodollar Loans, continue Eurodollar Loans as such and convert
Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Loans shall forthwith be canceled and (b) such Lender’s Loans then outstanding as Eurodollar Loans, if any, shall be converted automatically to Base Rate Loans on the respective last days of the then current
Interest Periods with respect to such Loans or within such earlier period as required by law. If any such conversion of a Eurodollar Loan occurs on a day which is not the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, the
Borrower shall pay to such Lender such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 2.16. 
  
 2.18. Change of Lending Office. Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.14, 2.15(a) or
2.17 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 any Borrower or the rights of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.14, 2.15(a) or 2.17. 
  
 2.19. Replacement of Lenders under Certain Circumstances. The Borrower
shall be permitted to replace any Lender that (a) requests reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.14 or 2.15 or gives a notice of illegality pursuant to Section 2.17 or (b) defaults in its obligation to make Loans hereunder, with a
replacement financial institution; 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) prior to any such
replacement, such Lender shall have taken no action under Section 2.18 so as to eliminate the continued need for payment of amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.14 or 2.15 or to eliminate the illegality referred to in such notice of illegality given
pursuant to Section 2.17, (iv) the replacement financial institution shall purchase, at par, all Loans and 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 2.16 (as though Section 2.16 were applicable) 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 9.6 (provided that the Borrower shall be obligated to pay the
registration and processing fee referred to therein), (viii) the Borrower shall pay all additional amounts (if any) required pursuant to Section 2.14 or 2.15, as the case may be, in respect of any period prior to the date on which such replacement
shall be consummated, 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. 
  
 SECTION 3. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 
  
 To induce the Agents and the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to make
the Loans, Parent and the Borrower hereby jointly and severally represent and warrant to each Agent and each Lender that: 
  
 3.1. Financial Condition. (a) The unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet of Parent as at September 30, 2004 (the “Pro
Forma Balance Sheet”), copies of which have heretofore been made available to each Lender, has been prepared giving effect (as if such events had occurred on such date) to (i) the Loans to be made on the Closing Date and the use of proceeds
thereof and (ii) the payment of fees and expenses in connection with the foregoing. The Pro Forma Balance Sheet has been prepared based on the best information available to the Borrower as of the date of delivery thereof, and presents fairly on a
pro forma basis the estimated consolidated financial position of Parent as at September 30, 2004, assuming that the events specified in the preceding sentence had actually occurred at such date. 
  
 (b) The audited consolidated balance sheets of Parent as at December 31, 2002
and December 31, 2003, and the related consolidated statements of income and of cash flows for the fiscal years ended on December 31, 2001, December 31, 2002 and December 31, 2003, reported on by and accompanied by an unqualified report from
Deloitte & Touche, copies of which have heretofore been made available to each Lender, present fairly the consolidated financial condition of Parent as at such date, and the consolidated results of its operations and its consolidated cash flows
for the respective fiscal years then ended. The unaudited consolidated balance sheet of Parent as at September 30, 2004, and the related unaudited consolidated statements of income and cash flows for the nine-month period ended on such date, copies
of which have heretofore been made available to each Lender, present fairly the consolidated financial condition of Parent as at such date, and the consolidated results of its operations and its consolidated cash flows for the nine-month period then
ended (subject to normal year-end audit adjustments). All such financial statements, including the related schedules and notes thereto, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied consistently throughout the periods involved (except as
approved by the aforementioned firm of accountants and disclosed therein). Parent, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries do not have any material Guarantees, contingent liabilities and liabilities for taxes, or any long-term leases or unusual forward or
long-term commitments, including, without limitation, any interest rate or foreign currency swap or exchange transaction or other obligation in respect of derivatives, that are not reflected in the most recent financial statements referred to in
this paragraph. During the period from December 31, 2003 to and including the date hereof there has been no Disposition by Parent of any material part of its business or Property. 

 3.2. No Change. Except as set forth in the Confidential Information Memorandum, since December 31,
2003 there has been no development or event that has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 3.3. Corporate Existence; Compliance with Law. Each of Parent, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (a) is duly organized, validly existing and in
good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, (b) has the corporate power and authority, and the legal right, to own and operate its Property, to lease the Property it operates as lessee and to conduct the business in which
it is currently engaged, (c) is duly qualified as a foreign corporation or other organization and is in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or operation of Property or the conduct of its business requires
such qualification, except where the failure to be so qualified could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and (d) is in compliance with all Requirements of Law except to the extent that the failure to comply therewith could
not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 3.4. Corporate Power; Authorization; Enforceable Obligations. Each Loan Party has the corporate power and authority, and the legal right, to make, deliver and perform the Loan Documents to which it is a party
and, in the case of the Borrower, to borrow hereunder. Each Loan Party has taken all necessary corporate action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of the Borrower, to
authorize the borrowings on the terms and conditions of this Agreement. No consent or authorization of, filing with, notice to or other act by or in respect of, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is required in connection with the
borrowings hereunder or the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except (i) consents, authorizations, filings and notices described in Schedule 3.4, which consents,
authorizations, filings and notices have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect and (ii) the filings referred to in Section 3.19. Each Loan Document has been duly executed and delivered on behalf of each Loan Party that is a party
thereto. This Agreement constitutes, and each other Loan Document upon execution will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Loan Party that is a party thereto, enforceable against each such Loan Party in accordance with its
terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles (whether enforcement is
sought by proceedings in equity or at law). 
  
 3.5. No Legal
Bar. Subject to the information set forth on Schedules 3.4, 3.15(b) and 3.15(c), the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the borrowings hereunder and the use of the proceeds thereof will not
violate any Requirement of Law or any Contractual Obligation of Parent, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries and will not result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien on any of their respective properties or revenues pursuant to
any Requirement of Law or any such Contractual Obligation (other than the Liens created by the Security Documents). No Requirement of Law or Contractual Obligation applicable to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries could reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect. 

 3.6. No Material Litigation. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.6 hereto, no litigation,
investigation or proceeding of or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority is pending or, to the knowledge of Parent or the Borrower, threatened by or against Parent, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or against any of their respective
properties or revenues (a) with respect to any of the Loan Documents or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or (b) that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 3.7. No Default. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.7 hereto, neither
Parent, the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is in default under or with respect to any of its Contractual Obligations in any respect that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Default or Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing. 
  
 3.8. Ownership of Property;
Liens. Each of Parent, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries has title in fee simple to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all its real property, and good title to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all its other Property, and none of such Property
is subject to any Lien except as permitted by Section 6.7. 
  
 3.9. Intellectual Property. Parent, the Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries owns, or is licensed to use, all Intellectual Property necessary for the conduct of its business as currently conducted, except where the failure to own or
possess licenses to use such Intellectual Property could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No material claim has been asserted and is pending by any Person challenging or questioning the use of any Intellectual Property
or the validity or effectiveness of any Intellectual Property, nor does Parent or the Borrower know of any valid basis for any such claim. The use of Intellectual Property by Parent, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries does not infringe on the rights
of any Person in any material respect, except where such infringements, if any, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
  
 3.10. Taxes. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.10, each of Parent, the Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries has filed or caused to be filed all
Federal, state and other material tax returns that are required to be filed and has paid all taxes shown to be due and payable on said returns or on any assessments made against it or any of its Property and all other taxes, fees or other charges
imposed on it or any of its Property by any Governmental Authority (other than any the amount or validity of which are currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which reserves in conformity with GAAP have
been provided on the books of Parent, the Borrower or its Subsidiaries, as the case may be); and no tax Lien has been filed, and, to the knowledge of Parent and the Borrower, no claim is being asserted, with respect to any such tax, fee or other
charge. 
  
 3.11. Federal Regulations. No part of the
proceeds of any Loans, and no other extensions of credit hereunder, will be used for “purchasing” or “carrying” any “margin stock” within the respective meanings of each of the quoted terms under Regulation U as now and
from time to time hereafter in effect or for any purpose that violates the provisions of the Regulations of the Board. If requested by any Lender or the Administrative Agent, the Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent and each Lender a
statement to the foregoing effect in conformity with the requirements of FR Form G-3 or FR Form U-1 referred to in Regulation U. 

 3.12. Labor Matters. There are no strikes or other labor disputes against Parent, the Borrower or
any of its Subsidiaries pending or, to the knowledge of Parent or the Borrower, threatened that (individually or in the aggregate) could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Hours worked by and payment made to employees of
Parent, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries have not been in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act or any other applicable Requirement of Law dealing with such matters that (individually or in the aggregate) could reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect. All payments due from Parent, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries on account of employee health and welfare insurance that (individually or in the aggregate) could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect
if not paid have been paid or accrued as a liability on the books of Parent, the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary. 
  
 3.13. ERISA. Neither a Reportable Event nor an “accumulated funding deficiency” (within the meaning of Section 412 of the Code or Section
302 of ERISA) has occurred during the five-year period prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made with respect to any Plan, and each Plan has complied in all material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA and
the Code. No termination of a Single Employer Plan has occurred, and no Lien in favor of the PBGC or a Plan has arisen, during such five-year period. The present value of all accrued benefits under each Single Employer Plan (based on those
assumptions used to fund such Plans) did not, as of the last annual valuation date prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made, exceed the value of the assets of such Plan allocable to such accrued benefits by a material
amount. Neither the Borrower nor any Commonly Controlled Entity has had a complete or partial withdrawal from any Multiemployer Plan that has resulted or could reasonably be expected to result in a material liability under ERISA, and neither the
Borrower nor any Commonly Controlled Entity would become subject to any material liability under ERISA if the Borrower or any such Commonly Controlled Entity were to withdraw completely from all Multiemployer Plans as of the valuation date most
closely preceding the date on which this representation is made or deemed made. No such Multiemployer Plan is in Reorganization or Insolvent. 
  
 3.14. Investment Company Act; Other Regulations. No Loan Party is an “investment company”, or a company “controlled” by an
“investment company”, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. 
  
 3.15. Subsidiaries. (a) The Subsidiaries listed on Schedule 3.15(a) constitute all the Subsidiaries of the Borrower at the date hereof. Schedule
3.15(a) sets forth as of the Closing Date the name and jurisdiction of incorporation of each Subsidiary and, as to each Subsidiary, the percentage of each class of Capital Stock owned by each Loan Party. There are no outstanding subscriptions,
options, warrants, calls, rights or other agreements or commitments (other than stock options granted to employees or directors and directors’ qualifying shares) of any nature relating to any Capital Stock of Parent, the Borrower or any
Subsidiary, except as disclosed on Schedule 3.15(a). 
  
 (b)
Schedule 3.15(b) sets forth (i) the name of each Subsidiary of the Borrower (other than (x) Excluded Foreign Subsidiaries and (y) Primus Telecommunications of Virginia, Inc., a Virginia corporation and a subsidiary of PRIMUS Telecommunications,
Inc., a Delaware corporation) and (ii) identifies any Subsidiary that is a Guarantee Approval Pending Subsidiary or a Security Interest Approval Pending Subsidiary. 

 (c) Schedule 3.15(c) lists, as to each Guarantee Approval Pending Subsidiary and each Security Interest
Approval Pending Subsidiary, the actions required to be taken to obtain requisite approvals of Governmental Authorities to permit such Subsidiary to incur obligations as a Guarantor under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or to grant security
interests in its assets pursuant to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, as the case may be. The documentation required to request the approvals described in Schedule 3.15(c) with respect to such Subsidiary is substantially complete and has been
sent to the relevant Governmental Authorities or is being sent to the relevant Governmental Authorities concurrently with the occurrence of the Closing Date. 
  
 (d) On the Closing Date, the Parent and the Borrower has no Unrestricted Subsidiaries. 
  
 3.16. Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Loans shall be used for general corporate purposes.

become applicable to any of them will be timely attained and maintained, without material expense. 
  
 (b) Materials of Environmental Concern are not present at, on, under, in, or about any real property now or formerly owned, leased or operated by the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or at any other location (including, without limitation, any location to which Materials of Environmental Concern have been sent for re-use or recycling or for treatment, storage, or disposal) which could
reasonably be expected to (i) give rise to liability of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries under any applicable Environmental Law or otherwise result in costs to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (ii) interfere with the
Borrower’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ continued operations, or (iii) impair the fair market value of any real property owned or leased by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries. 
  
 (c) There is no judicial, administrative, or arbitral proceeding (including

applicable Environmental Law to which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is, or to the knowledge of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries will be,
named as a party that is pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, threatened. 
  
 (d) Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries has received any written request for information, or been notified that it is a potentially
responsible party under or relating to the federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act or any similar applicable Environmental Law, or with respect to any Materials of Environmental Concern. 
  
 (e) Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries has entered into or

for dispute resolution, relating to compliance with or liability under any applicable Environmental Law. 
  
 (f) To the knowledge of the Borrower, neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries has assumed or retained, by contract or operation of law, any
liabilities of any kind, fixed or contingent, known or unknown, under any applicable Environmental Law or with respect to any Material of Environmental Concern. 
  

3.18. Accuracy of Information, etc. No statement or information contained in this Agreement, any other Loan Document, the Confidential
Information Memorandum or any other document, or certificate made available to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders or any of them, by or on behalf of any Loan Party for use in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or
the other Loan Documents, contained as of the date such statement, information, document or certificate was so made available (or, in the case of the Confidential Information Memorandum, as of the date of this Agreement), any untrue statement of a
material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained herein or therein not misleading. The projections and pro forma financial information contained in the materials referenced above are based
upon good faith estimates and assumptions believed by management of the Borrower to be reasonable at the time made, it being recognized by the Lenders that such financial information as it relates to future events is not to be viewed as fact and
that actual results during the period or periods covered by such financial information may differ from the projected results set forth therein by a material amount. There is no fact known to any Loan Party that could reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect that has not been expressly disclosed in this Agreement or the Schedules hereto, in the other Loan Documents, in the Confidential Information Memorandum or in any other documents and certificates furnished to the Agents and
the Lenders for use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents. 
  
 3.19. Security Documents. (a) The Guarantee and Collateral Agreement is effective to create in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit
of the Secured Parties, a legal, valid and enforceable security interest in the Collateral described therein and proceeds thereof. In the case of the Pledged Stock described in the 

 
Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, when any stock certificates representing such Pledged Stock and related stock powers are delivered to the Administrative
Agent, and in the case of the other Collateral described in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, when financing statements in appropriate form are filed in the offices specified on Schedule 3.19(a)-1 (which financing statements have been duly
completed and delivered to the Administrative Agent) and such other filings and actions as are specified on Schedule 3 to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement have been completed (all of which filings and actions (subject to Section 5.12) have
been duly completed), the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in such Collateral and the proceeds thereof (to the extent
perfection can be accomplished by Domestic Perfection Actions), as security for the Obligations (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement), in each case prior and superior in right to any other Person (except, in the case of Collateral
other than Pledged Stock, Liens permitted by Section 6.7). Schedule 3.19(a)-2 lists each UCC Financing Statement that (i) names any Loan Party as debtor and (ii) will remain on file after the Closing Date. Schedule 3.19(a)-3 lists each UCC Financing
Statement that (i) names any Loan Party as debtor and (ii) will be terminated on or prior to the Closing Date; and on or prior to the Closing Date, the Borrower will have delivered to the Administrative Agent, or caused to be filed, duly completed

	 	(1)	either (A) such Obligor shall be the continuing Person, or (B) the Person (if other than such Obligor) formed by such consolidation or into which it is merged or that acquired or

 would be greater than zero and less than 5.0 to 1.0; 
  
 (ii) the Borrower and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries may Incur Indebtedness, including Acquired
Indebtedness but excluding Priority Indebtedness, if immediately thereafter the ratio (the “Borrower Indebtedness to Consolidated Cash Flow Ratio”) of:

which results in any such Restricted Subsidiary ceasing to be a Restricted Subsidiary of Parent or any subsequent transfer of such Indebtedness permitted by this clause (iii) (other than to Parent or another Restricted Subsidiary of Parent) shall be
deemed, in each case, to constitute the Incurrence of such Indebtedness; and provided further that Indebtedness to a Restricted Subsidiary of Parent (other than the Borrower or a Subsidiary Guarantor) must be subordinated in right of
payment to the Loans or any Guarantee thereof, as the case may be and, in the case of any Indebtedness other than intercompany Indebtedness arising out of ordinary course of business intercompany transactions, may not constitute Priority
Indebtedness; 
  
 (iv) Indebtedness of Parent or
a Restricted Subsidiary of Parent issued in exchange for, or the net proceeds of which are used to refinance or refund, then outstanding Indebtedness of Parent or a Restricted Subsidiary of Parent, other than Indebtedness Incurred under clauses (i),
(iii), (v), (viii), (ix) and (x) of this 

 
paragraph, and any refinancings thereof in an amount not to exceed the amount so refinanced or refunded (plus premiums, accrued interest, and reasonable fees
and expenses); provided that such new Indebtedness shall only be permitted under this clause (iv) if 
  
 (A) in case the Loans are refinanced in part or the Indebtedness to be refinanced is pari passu with the Loans or any Guarantee
thereof, such new Indebtedness, by its terms or by the terms of any agreement or instrument pursuant to which such new Indebtedness is issued or remains outstanding, is expressly made pari passu with, or subordinate in right of payment to,
the remaining Loans or such Guarantee, 
  
 (B) in
case the Indebtedness to be refinanced is subordinated in right of payment to the Loans or any Guarantee thereof, such new Indebtedness, by its terms or by the terms of any agreement or instrument pursuant to which such new Indebtedness is issued or
remains outstanding, is made subordinate expressly in right of payment to the Loans or such Guarantee at least to the extent that the Indebtedness to be refinanced is subordinated to the Loans and such Guarantee, 
  
 (C) such new Indebtedness, determined as of the date of
Incurrence of such new Indebtedness, does not mature prior to the Stated Maturity of the Indebtedness to be refinanced or refunded, and the Average Life of such new Indebtedness is at least equal to the remaining Average Life of the Indebtedness to
be refinanced or refunded; and provided further that in no event may (1) Indebtedness of Parent be refinanced by means of any Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary of Parent pursuant to this clause (iv) and (2) Indebtedness of the
Borrower be refinanced by means of any Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower pursuant to this clause (iv); and 
  
 (D) such new Indebtedness may not constitute Priority Indebtedness except to the extent that, and in the same manner as, the Indebtedness
to be refinanced or refunded is Priority Indebtedness; 
  
 (v) Indebtedness of Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary of Parent: 
  
 (A) in respect of performance, bid, surety or appeal bonds, completion guarantees or guarantees or warranty of contractual service obligations provided in the ordinary course of business, and letters of credit or
banker’s acceptances supporting Trade Payables or covering workers’ compensation, errors and omissions insurance, bid and performance, appeal or similar obligations, in each case provided in the ordinary course of business; 
  
 (B) under Currency Agreements and Interest Rate Agreements;
provided that such agreements: 
  

	 	(a)	are designed solely to protect Parent or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries against fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates or interest rates, and 

	 	(b)	do not increase the Indebtedness of the obligor outstanding at any time other than as a result of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates or interest rates or by reason of
fees, indemnities and compensation payable thereunder; and 

  
 (C) arising from agreements providing for indemnification, adjustment of purchase price or similar obligations, or from Guarantees or letters of credit, surety bonds or performance bonds securing any obligations of
Parent or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries pursuant to such agreements, in any case Incurred in connection with the disposition of any business, assets or Restricted Subsidiary (other than Guarantees of Indebtedness Incurred by any Person
acquiring all or any portion of such business, assets or Restricted Subsidiary of Parent for the purpose of financing such acquisition), in a principal amount not to exceed the gross proceeds actually received by Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary
of Parent in connection with such disposition; 
  
 (vi) Indebtedness of the Parent or its Restricted Subsidiaries, as applicable, to the extent that the net proceeds thereof promptly are deposited to defease, (x) in the case of Indebtedness of the Borrower, all of the Senior Notes as
described under Article Fourteen of the Senior Note Indenture, (y) in the case of Indebtedness of the Parent, all of the debt securities of the Parent or one of its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than the Borrower) of a particular series pursuant to
a comparable provision in such securities, or (z) in the case of Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary of the Parent (other than the Borrower), all of the debt securities of that or another Restricted Subsidiary of Parent (other than the Borrower)
of a particular series pursuant to a comparable provision in such securities; provided, that proceeds of Indebtedness of any Subsidiary Guarantor may not be used to defease any Indebtedness of any Person other than such Subsidiary Guarantor
or another Subsidiary Guarantor; 
  
 (vii)
Acquired Indebtedness not to exceed $100,000,000 at any one time outstanding; provided that, as a result of such incurrence: 
  
 (A) in the case of Acquired Indebtedness incurred by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, the Borrower Indebtedness to
Consolidated Cash Flow Ratio at the time of the incurrence of such Acquired Indebtedness and calculated giving pro forma effect to such incurrence (in accordance with the definition of “Borrower Indebtedness to Consolidated Cash Flow
Ratio”) and the related Asset Acquisition as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the most recently ended two fiscal quarters, would have been less than the Borrower Indebtedness to Consolidated Cash Flow Ratio for the same period
without giving pro forma effect to such incurrence and Asset Acquisition; 
  
 (B) in the case of Acquired Indebtedness incurred directly by Parent, the Parent Indebtedness to Consolidated Cash Flow Ratio at the time of the incurrence of such Acquired Indebtedness and calculated giving pro forma
effect 

 
to such incurrence (in accordance with the definition of “Parent Indebtedness to Consolidated Cash Flow Ratio”) and the related Asset Acquisition
as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the most recently ended two fiscal quarters, would have been less than the Parent Indebtedness to Consolidated Cash Flow Ratio for the same period without giving pro forma effect to such incurrence and
Asset Acquisition; and 
  
 (C) in the case of
Acquired Indebtedness that is Priority Indebtedness, the Priority Indebtedness to Consolidated Cash Flow Ratio at the time of the incurrence of such Acquired Indebtedness and calculated giving pro forma effect to such incurrence (in accordance with
the definition of “Priority Indebtedness to Consolidated Cash Flow Ratio”) and the related Asset Acquisition as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the most recently ended two fiscal quarters, would have been less than the
Priority Indebtedness to Consolidated Cash Flow Ratio for the same period without giving pro forma effect to such incurrence and Asset Acquisition; 
  
 (viii) Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary of Parent represented by a Guarantee of the Loans; 
  
 (ix) Indebtedness (other than Priority Indebtedness) of
Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary of Parent not otherwise permitted hereunder in an aggregate principal amount which, when aggregated with the principal amount of all other Indebtedness then outstanding and incurred on or after January 16, 2004
pursuant to this clause (ix) or clause (ix) of Section 1011 of the Senior Note Indenture, does not exceed $200,000,000 at any one time outstanding; and 
  
 (x) Indebtedness of Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary of Parent arising from the honoring by a bank or other financial institution of a
check or similar instrument inadvertently (except in the case of daylight overdrafts) drawn against insufficient funds in the ordinary course of business, provided that such Indebtedness is extinguished within three business days of
Incurrence. 
  
 (c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Section 6.2, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that Parent or a Restricted Subsidiary of Parent may Incur pursuant to this Section 6.2 shall not be deemed to be exceeded with respect to any outstanding Indebtedness due solely to the result of
fluctuations in the exchange rates of currencies. 
  
 (d) For
purposes of determining any particular amount of Indebtedness under this Section 6.2, Guarantees, Liens or obligations with respect to letters of credit, in each case supporting Indebtedness otherwise included in the determination of such particular
amount, shall not be included. For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 6.2, in the event that an item of Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the types of Indebtedness described in the above clauses, Parent in its
sole discretion, shall classify and from time to time may reclassify such item of Indebtedness and only be required to include the amount and type of such Indebtedness in one of such clauses. Indebtedness permitted by this Section 6.2 need not be
permitted solely by reference to one provision permitting such Indebtedness but may be permitted in part by one such provision and in part by one or more other provisions of this Section 6.2 permitting such Indebtedness. 

 6.3. Limitation on Restricted Payments. Parent will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries directly or indirectly to: 
  
 (i)

or retirement for value of Subordinated Indebtedness; or 
  
 (iv) make any Investment, other than a Permitted Investment, in any Person (such payments or any other actions described in clauses (i) through (iv) being collectively “Restricted Payments”);

  
 if, at the time of, and after giving effect to, the proposed
Restricted Payment: 
  
 (A) a Default or Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing; 
  
 (B) Parent could not Incur at least $1.00 of Indebtedness under clause (i) of paragraph (a) of Section 6.2; or 
  
 (C) the aggregate amount expended for all Restricted Payments (the amount so expended, if other than in cash, to be determined in good
faith by the Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive and evidenced by a Board Resolution) after January 16, 2004 shall exceed the sum of: 
  

(1) the remainder of 
  
 (a) 100% of the aggregate amount of the Consolidated Cash Flow of Parent (determined by excluding income resulting 

 
from transfers of assets received by Parent or a Restricted Subsidiary of Parent from an Unrestricted Subsidiary) accrued on a cumulative basis during the
period (taken as one accounting period) beginning on the first day of Parent’s fourth fiscal quarter in 1999 and ending on the last day of the last full fiscal quarter preceding the Transaction Date, minus 
  
 (b) the product of 1.75 times cumulative Consolidated Fixed

Date, plus 
  
 (2) the aggregate Net Cash
Proceeds received by Parent on or after October 15, 1999 from the issuance and sale of its Capital Stock (other than Redeemable Stock) to a Person who is not a Subsidiary, plus 
  
 (3) the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds received on or after October 15, 1999 by Parent from the issuance or
sale of debt securities that have been converted into or exchanged for its Capital Stock (other than Redeemable Stock) together with the aggregate cash received by us at the time of such conversion or exchange, plus 
  
 (4) without duplication of any amount included in the
calculation of Consolidated Cash Flow of Parent, in the case of repayment of, or return of capital in respect of, any Investment constituting a Restricted Payment made on or after October 15, 1999 and reducing the amount of Restricted Payments
otherwise permitted under this clause (C), an amount equal to the lesser of the return of capital with respect to such Investment and the cost of such Investment, in either case less the cost of the disposition of such Investment. 
  
 The foregoing provision shall not be violated by reason of: 
  
 (a) the payment of any dividend within 60 days after the date of declaration
thereof if, at said date of declaration, such payment would comply with the foregoing paragraph; 
  
 (b) the redemption, repurchase, defeasance or other acquisition or retirement for value of Subordinated Indebtedness of either Obligor (including premium,
if any, and accrued and unpaid interest) with the proceeds of, or in exchange for, Indebtedness of such Obligor Incurred under clause (iv) of paragraph (b) of Section 6.2; 
  
 (c) the repurchase, redemption or other acquisition of Capital Stock of Parent with the proceeds of, or in exchange for, an

such repurchase, redemption or other acquisition; 

 (d) the redemption, repurchase, defeasance or other acquisition or retirement for value of Subordinated
Indebtedness of either Obligor (including premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest) with the proceeds of, or in exchange for, an offering of, shares of Capital Stock of Parent (other than Redeemable Stock), which proceeds are received or
which Subordinated Indebtedness is exchanged, surrendered or tendered, as the case may be, no more than 60 days prior to, and no later than the date of, such redemption, repurchase, defeasance or other acquisition or retirement for value;

  
 (e) payments or distributions to dissenting stockholders
pursuant to applicable law, pursuant to or in connection with a consolidation, merger or transfer of assets that complies, if applicable, with the provisions of this Agreement applicable to mergers, consolidations and transfers of all or
substantially all of the property and assets of Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries or the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be; 
  
 (f) cash payments in lieu of the issuance of fractional shares issued in connection with the exercise of warrants, options or other rights to purchase, or
the conversion of securities convertible into, Capital Stock of Parent or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; 
  
 (g) Investments in Permitted Businesses acquired in exchange for Capital Stock of Parent (other than Redeemable Stock) or with the Net Cash Proceeds from
the issuance and sale of such Capital Stock; 
  
 (h) [reserved];

  
 (i) repurchases of Capital Stock of Parent options, warrants
or other rights to acquire such Capital Stock from employees, former employees, directors or former directors (or their heirs or estates) of Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary in an aggregate amount under this clause (i) not to exceed $5,000,000 in
any calendar year;

 (l) other Restricted Payments not to exceed $20,000,000 in the aggregate
during any calendar year (with the entire unused amount in any calendar year, including previously carried over amounts, being permitted to be carried over for the next succeeding calendar year); provided, that such amount in any calendar
year may be increased by an amount equal to Unclaimed Excess Proceeds (with the entire unused amount in any calendar year, including previously carried over amounts, being permitted to be carried over for the next succeeding calendar year);
provided, further that upon the making of any such Restricted Payment (i) the Parent Indebtedness to Consolidated Cash Flow Ratio, calculated giving pro forma effect to such Restricted Payment as if the same had been made at the
beginning of the most recently ended two fiscal quarters, would be greater than zero and equal to or less than 3.0 to 1 and (ii) the Borrower Indebtedness to Consolidated Cash Flow Ratio, calculated giving pro forma effect to such Restricted Payment
as if the same had been made at the beginning of the most recently ended two fiscal quarters, would be greater than zero and equal to or less than 1.5 to 1; and 

 (m) the declaration and payment of dividends or distributions to holders of any class or series of
Redeemable Stock of Parent, the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary issued or incurred in accordance with Section 6.2,  
  
 provided that, except in the case of clause (a), no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or occur as a consequence of the actions or
payments set forth therein. 
  
 Each Restricted Payment permitted
pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph (other than (1) a Restricted Payment referred to in clause (b) thereof, (2) an exchange of Capital Stock for Capital Stock or an exchange of Indebtedness for Capital Stock referred to in clauses (c) or
(d) thereof or (3) an exchange of Capital Stock referred to in clause (g) thereof) and the Net Cash Proceeds from any issuance of Capital Stock referred to in clauses (c), (d) and (g) shall be included in calculating whether the conditions of clause
(C) of the first paragraph of this Section 6.3 have been met with respect to any subsequent Restricted Payments. 
  
 Any Restricted Payments made other than in cash shall be valued at Fair Market Value as determined by the Board of Directors of Parent (whose
determination shall be conclusive and evidenced by a Board Resolution). The amount of any Investment “outstanding” at any time shall be deemed to be equal to the amount of such Investment on the date made, less the return of capital,
repayment of loans, and release of Guarantees, in each case of or to Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries with respect to such Investment (up to the amount of such Investment on the date made). 
  
 6.4. Limitation on Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting
Restricted Subsidiaries. Parent will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, create or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or restriction of any kind on the ability of any
Restricted Subsidiary of Parent to: 
  
 (i) pay
dividends or make any other distributions permitted by applicable law on any Capital Stock of such Restricted Subsidiary owned by Parent or any other Restricted Subsidiary; 
  
 (ii) pay any indebtedness owed to Parent or any other Restricted Subsidiary; 
  
 (iii) make loans or advances to Parent or any other
Restricted Subsidiary; or 
  
 (iv) transfer any
of its property or assets to Parent or any other Restricted Subsidiary. 
  
 The foregoing provisions shall not restrict any encumbrances or restrictions: 
  
 (i) existing on the Closing Date in this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other agreements in effect on the Closing Date, and any extensions,
refinancings, renewals 

 
or replacements of such agreements; provided that the encumbrances and restrictions in any such extensions, refinancings, renewals or replacements,
taken as a whole, are no less favorable in any material respect to the Lenders than those encumbrances or restrictions that are then in effect and that are being extended, refinanced, renewed or replaced; 
  
 (ii) contained in the terms of any Indebtedness or any agreement pursuant to
which such Indebtedness was issued if the encumbrance or restriction applies only in the event of a payment default or default with respect to a financial covenant contained in such Indebtedness or agreement and such encumbrance or restriction is
not materially more disadvantageous to the Lenders than is customary in comparable financings (as determined by Parent) and Parent determines that any such encumbrance or restriction will not materially affect the Borrower’s ability to make
principal or interest payments on the Loans; 
  
 (iii) existing
under or by reason of applicable law; 
  
 (iv) existing with
respect to any Person or the property or assets of such Person acquired by Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary of Parent, existing at the time of such acquisition and not incurred in contemplation thereof, which encumbrances or restrictions are not
applicable to any Person or the property or assets of any Person other than such Person or the property or assets of such Person so acquired and as the same may be amended, modified, restated, renewed, supplemented, refunded, replaced or refinanced;
provided that such amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings, taken as a whole, are no less favorable in any material respect to the Lenders than those encumbrances or
restrictions that are then in effect and that are being so amended, modified, restated, renewed, supplemented, refunded, replaced or refinanced; 
  
 (v) in the case of clause (iv) of the first paragraph of this Section 6.4, 
  
 (A) that restrict in a customary manner the subletting, assignment or transfer of any property or asset that
is, or is subject to, a lease, purchase mortgage obligation, construction financing agreement, license, conveyance or contract or similar property or asset, including, without limitation, customary non-assignment provisions in leases, Purchase Money
Obligations and other similar agreements, in each case with respect to the property or assets subject thereto, 
  
 (B) existing by virtue of any transfer of, agreement to transfer, option or right with respect to, or Lien on, any property or assets of
Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary of Parent not otherwise prohibited by this Agreement, or 
  
 (C) arising or agreed to in the ordinary course of business, not relating to any Indebtedness, and that do not, individually or in the
aggregate, detract from the value of property or assets of Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary of Parent in any manner material to Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary; 
  
 (vi) with respect to a Restricted Subsidiary of Parent and imposed pursuant to an agreement that has been entered into for
the sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the Capital Stock of, or property and assets of, such Restricted Subsidiary of Parent; or 

 (vii) imposed by customary provisions in joint venture agreements and similar agreements that restrict
the transfer of the interest in the joint venture. 
  
 Nothing
contained in this Section 6.4 shall prevent Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary of Parent from (1) creating, incurring, assuming or suffering to exist any Liens otherwise permitted in Section 6.7 or (2) restricting the sale or other disposition of
property or assets of Parent or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that secure Indebtedness of Parent or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries. 
  
 6.5. Limitation on the Issuance and Sale of Voting Stock of Restricted Subsidiaries. Parent shall at all times own 100% of the Voting Stock of the
Borrower. Parent will not sell, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, to issue, transfer, convey, sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any shares of Voting Stock
(including options, warrants or other rights to purchase shares of such Voting Stock) of such or any other Restricted Subsidiary to any Person except: 
  
 (i) to a Restricted Subsidiary of Parent; 
  
 (ii) issuances of director’s qualifying shares or sales to foreign nationals or directors or employees of Parent or its Restricted Subsidiaries of
shares of Voting Stock of non-U.S. Restricted Subsidiaries of Parent to the extent required by law or to the extent such issuances are required to obtain preferential treatment under law that does not adversely affect the rights of the Lenders in
any material respect; 
  
 (iii) Voting Stock or options or other
rights to acquire shares of Voting Stock (or shares of Voting Stock issued upon exercise of such options or other rights) granted to employees or directors of no more than two Restricted Subsidiaries of Parent designated by Parent and identified in
an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Administrative Agent (“Designated Subsidiaries”), pursuant to the terms of any management equity or compensation plan or stock option plan or any other management or employee benefit
plan or other similar agreement or arrangement; provided, that such Voting Stock, options and other rights to acquire shares, together with the issuance of shares of Voting Stock upon the exercise thereof, shall not represent more than 5.0%
of the fully diluted Voting Stock of any such Restricted Subsidiary; provided further, that if and only if any Designated Subsidiary ceases to be a Subsidiary of Parent, Parent may designate another Restricted Subsidiary in its place
by identifying that Restricted Subsidiary in an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Administrative Agent and that Restricted Subsidiary shall thereupon be deemed a Designated Subsidiary for all purposes under this Agreement; 
  
 (iv) issuances and sales of Voting Stock of Restricted Subsidiaries of Parent
if: 
  
 (A) the Net Cash Proceeds from such
issuance, transfer, conveyance, sale, lease or other disposition are applied in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.8, and 
  
 (B) immediately after giving effect to such issuance, transfer, conveyance, sale, lease or other disposition, such Restricted Subsidiary
either continues to be a Restricted Subsidiary or, if such Restricted Subsidiary would no 

 
longer constitute a Restricted Subsidiary, then any Investment in such Person remaining after giving effect to such issuance, transfer, conveyance, sale,
lease or other disposition would have been permitted to be made under Section 6.3 if made on the date of such issuance, transfer, conveyance, sale, lease or other disposition (valued as provided in the definition of “Investment”); and

  
 (v) sales of Lingo Capital Stock through a Lingo Offering.

  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries may sell all of the Voting Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary in compliance with the provisions of Section 6.8. 
  
 6.6. Limitation on Transactions with Shareholders and Affiliates. Parent will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary, directly or
indirectly, to enter into, renew or extend any transaction (including, without limitation, the purchase, sale, lease or exchange of property or assets, or the rendering of any service) with any holder (or any Affiliate of such holder) of 10% or more
of any class of Capital Stock of Parent or with any Affiliate of Parent, unless: 
  
 (i) such transaction or series of transactions is on terms no less favorable to Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary than those that could be obtained in a comparable arm’s length transaction with a Person that
is not such a holder or an Affiliate; 
  
 (ii) if such transaction
or series of transactions involves aggregate consideration in excess of $10,000,000, then such transaction or series of transactions is approved by a majority of the Board of Directors of Parent, including the approval of a majority of the
independent, disinterested directors, and is evidenced by a resolution of the Board of Directors of Parent; and 
  
 (iii) if such transaction or series of transactions involves aggregate consideration in excess of $25,000,000, then Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary
will deliver to the Administrative Agent a written opinion as to the fairness to Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary of such transaction from a financial point of view from a nationally recognized investment banking firm (or, if an investment
banking firm is generally not qualified to give such an opinion, by a nationally recognized appraisal firm or accounting firm). Any such transaction or series of transactions shall be conclusively deemed to be on terms no less favorable to Parent or
such Restricted Subsidiary than those that could be obtained in an arm’s length transaction if such transaction or transactions are approved by a majority of the Board of Directors of Parent, including a majority of the independent,
disinterested directors, and are evidenced by a resolution of the Board of Directors of Parent. 
  
 The foregoing limitation does not limit, and will not apply to: 
  

(a) any transaction between Parent and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or between Restricted Subsidiaries; 
  
 (b) the payment of reasonable and customary regular fees to directors of
Parent or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries who are not its employees and Indemnification Arrangements entered into by Parent or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and approved by the Board of Directors of Parent; 

 (c) any Restricted Payments not prohibited by Section 6.3 and any Permitted Investment other than a
Permitted Investment made pursuant to clause (ix) of the definition thereof; 
  
 (d) transactions provided for in the Employment Agreement as in effect on January 16, 2004; 
  
 (e) loans and advances to employees of Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary not exceeding at any one time outstanding $5,000,000 in the aggregate, in the
ordinary course of business and in accordance with past practice; 
  
 (f) any issuance of shares of Capital Stock (other than Redeemable Stock) of Parent and any options, warrants or other rights to acquire such Capital Stock; 
  
 (g) any issuance or sale of shares of Capital Stock (other than Redeemable Stock) of a Designated Subsidiary and any
options, warrants or other rights to acquire such Capital Stock, in each case made in accordance with clause (iii) of Section 6.5; 
  
 (h) any employment arrangements entered into by Parent or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business and approved by the Board
of Directors of Parent; and

payments or other transactions pursuant thereto, between Parent and any other Person with which Parent files a consolidated tax return or with which Parent is part of a consolidated group for tax purposes, in each case approved by the Board of
Directors of Parent. 
  
 6.7. Limitation on Liens. Parent
will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, (a) create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) on any of its assets or properties of any character (including, without limitation, licenses and
trademarks), or any shares of Capital Stock or Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary of Parent or (b) create or assume any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) on any of its assets or properties of any character (including, without limitation,
licenses and trademarks), or on any shares of Capital Stock or Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary of Parent if (i) such Lien secures Indebtedness and (ii) immediately thereafter, the Priority Indebtedness to Consolidated Cash Flow Ratio would
be equal to or greater than 2.0 to 1.0. 
  
 6.8. Limitation on
Asset Sales. Parent will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any Asset Sale unless (i) Parent or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration at the time of such sale or other disposition
at least equal to the Fair Market Value of the assets sold or disposed of as determined by the good-faith judgment of the Board of Directors of Parent, which determination, in each case where such Fair Market Value is greater than $10,000,000, will
be evidenced by a Board Resolution, (ii) at least 75% of the consideration received for such sale or other disposition consists of cash or cash equivalents, Marketable Securities or the assumption of unsubordinated Indebtedness and (iii) an amount
equal to the Net Cash Proceeds of such Asset Sale are applied in accordance with the Senior Note Indenture as in effect on the date hereof (subject to Section 2.7). 

 6.9. Limitation on Issuances of Guarantees of Indebtedness by Restricted Subsidiaries. Parent will
not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries other than the Borrower, directly or indirectly, to guarantee, assume or in any other manner become liable with respect to any Indebtedness of Parent or the Borrower, unless (i) such Restricted
Subsidiary simultaneously executes and delivers a Guarantee of the Loans on terms substantially similar to the guarantee of such Indebtedness, except that if such Indebtedness is by its express terms subordinated in right of payment to the Loans,
any such assumption Guarantee or other liability of such Restricted Subsidiary with respect to such Indebtedness shall be subordinated in right of payment to such Restricted Subsidiary’s assumption, Guarantee or other liability with respect to
the Loans substantially to the same extent as such Indebtedness is subordinated to the Loans and (ii) such Restricted Subsidiary waives, and will not in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any rights of reimbursement,
indemnity or subrogation or any other rights against the Obligors or any other Restricted Subsidiary as a result of any payment by such Restricted Subsidiary under its Guarantee. 
  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Guarantee by a Restricted Subsidiary may provide by its terms that it will be
automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon (i) any sale, exchange or transfer, to any Person not an Affiliate of Parent, of all of Parent’s and each Restricted Subsidiary’s Capital Stock in, or all or substantially all
of the assets of, such Restricted Subsidiary (which sale, exchange or transfer is not prohibited by this Agreement), (ii) the designation of such Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with this Agreement, or (iii) the
release or discharge of the guarantee which resulted in the creation of such Guarantee, except a discharge or release by or as a result of payment under such guarantee. 
  
 6.10. Business of Parent. Parent will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, be principally engaged
in any business or activity other than a Permitted Business. 
  
 6.11. Restriction on Transfer of Assets. Except for the transfer to the Lingo Subsidiary of assets contemplated within the definition of “Lingo Subsidiary” in Section 1.1, Parent will not, and will not permit any Restricted
Subsidiary to, sell, lease, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of any assets constituting Collateral to any Affiliate other than the Borrower or a Subsidiary Guarantor. 
  
 6.12. Restriction on Certain Purchases of Indebtedness. No Restricted Subsidiary shall purchase any Indebtedness of
Parent or Borrower evidenced by securities that were previously issued or the subject of one or more transactions registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. 
  
 6.13. Restriction on Use of Proceeds. The Borrower will not, directly or indirectly, use any proceeds of the Loans to
pay any cash dividend on, or to repurchase, any Capital Stock of any Person. For avoidance of doubt, the term “Capital Stock”, as used in this Section, shall not include any debt that, by its terms, is convertible into Capital Stock.

 6.14. Restriction on Deposit Accounts and Securities Accounts. Neither Parent nor the Borrower
will, nor will Parent or the Borrower permit any Subsidiary Guarantor to, at any time after the date which is 30 days after the Closing Date, maintain any deposit account or securities account (as such terms are defined in the Uniform Commercial

 (g) (i) any Person shall engage in any “prohibited
transaction” (as defined in Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) involving any Plan, (ii) any “accumulated funding deficiency” (as defined in Section 302 of ERISA), whether or not waived, shall exist with respect to any
Plan, or any Lien in favor of the PBGC or a Plan shall arise on the assets of the Borrower or any Commonly Controlled Entity, (iii) a Reportable Event shall occur with respect to, or proceedings shall commence to have a trustee appointed, or a

clauses (i) through (vi) above, such event or condition, together with all other such events or conditions, if any, could, in the sole judgment of the Required Lenders, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; or 
  
 (h) one or more judgments or decrees shall be entered against Parent, the

due and payable. 
  
 SECTION 8. THE AGENTS 
  
 8.1. Appointment. Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and
appoints the Agents as the agents of such Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and each Lender irrevocably authorizes each Agent, in such capacity, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to such Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, no Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants,
functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against any Agent. 

 8.2. Delegation of Duties. Each Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. No Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or
attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. 
  
 8.3.
Exculpatory Provisions. Neither any Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates shall be (i) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in
connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except to the extent that any of the foregoing are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from its or such Person’s own gross
negligence or willful misconduct) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any Loan Party or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Loan
Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Agents under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness,
genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any failure of any Loan Party to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Agents shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain
or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Loan Party. 
  
 8.4. Reliance by Agents. Each Agent shall be entitled to rely, and
shall be fully protected in relying, upon any instrument, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and
correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to the Loan Parties), independent accountants and other experts selected by such
Agent. The Agents may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless such Note shall have been transferred in accordance with Section 9.6 and all actions required by such Section in connection with such transfer
shall have been taken. Each Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or, if so
specified by this Agreement, all Lenders or any other instructing group of Lenders specified by this Agreement) as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense
that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Each Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a
request of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders or any other instructing group of Lenders specified by this Agreement), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding
upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans. 

 8.5. Notice of Default. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of
any Default or Event of Default hereunder unless such Agent shall have received notice from a Lender, Parent or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of
default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent shall receive such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of
Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders or any other instructing group of Lenders specified by this Agreement); provided that unless and until the Administrative
Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best
interests of the Lenders. 
  
 8.6. Non-Reliance on Agents and
Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither any of the Agents nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates have made any representations or warranties to it and that no
act by any Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of a Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Agents
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 appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property,
financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their affiliates and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without
reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their affiliates. Except for
notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, no Agent shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the
business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of any Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party that may come into the possession of such Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees,
agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates. 
  
 8.7.
Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify each Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by Parent or the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of Parent or the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their
respective Percentages in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably
in accordance with such Percentages immediately prior to such date), for, and to save each Agent harmless from and against, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements
of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (including, without limitation, at any time following the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent in any way 

 
relating to or arising out of, the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or
therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent’s gross
negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
  
 8.8. Agent in Its Individual Capacity. Each Agent and its affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of
business with any Loan Party as though such Agent were not an Agent. With respect to its Loans made or renewed by it, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Lender and may exercise
the same as though it were not an Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include each Agent in its individual capacity. 
  
 8.9. Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon 10 days’ notice to the Lenders and the
Borrower. If the Administrative Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent
shall (unless an Event of Default under Section 7(a) or Section 7(f) with respect to the Borrower shall have occurred and be continuing) be subject to approval by the Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), whereupon
such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former
Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any holders of the
Loans. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date that is 10 days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless
thereupon become effective, and the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. The Syndication Agent may,
at any time, by notice to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, resign as Syndication Agent hereunder, whereupon the duties, rights, obligations and responsibilities of the Syndication Agent hereunder shall automatically be assumed by, and inure
to the benefit of, the Administrative Agent, without any further act by the Syndication Agent, the Administrative Agent or any Lender. After any retiring Agent’s resignation as Agent, the provisions of this Section 8 shall inure to its benefit
as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
  
 8.10. Authorization to Release Liens and Guarantees. The Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized by each of the Lenders to effect any
release of Liens or guarantee obligations contemplated by Section 9.15. 

 8.11. The Arranger; the Syndication Agent. Neither the Arranger, nor the Syndication Agent, in
their respective capacities as such, shall have any duties or responsibilities, nor shall either such Person incur any liability, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 
  
 SECTION 9. MISCELLANEOUS 
  
 9.1. Amendments and Waivers. Neither this Agreement or any other Loan Document, nor any terms hereof or thereof may be amended, supplemented or
modified except in accordance with the provisions of this Section 9.1. The Required Lenders and each Loan Party party to the relevant Loan Document may, or (with the written consent of the Required Lenders) the Agents and each Loan Party party to
the relevant Loan Document may, from time to time, (a) enter into written amendments, supplements or modifications hereto and to the other Loan Documents (including amendments and restatements hereof or thereof) for the purpose of adding any
provisions to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or of the Loan Parties hereunder or thereunder or (b) waive, on such terms and conditions as may be specified in the instrument of waiver,
any of the requirements of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any Default or Event of Default and its consequences; provided, however, that no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall: 

 
 (i) forgive the principal amount or extend the final
scheduled date of maturity of any Loan, extend the scheduled date of any amortization payment in respect of any Loan, reduce the stated rate of any interest or fee (including, without limitation, any prepayment fee payable pursuant to Section 2.6 or
2.7) payable under this Agreement (except (x) in connection with the waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates (which waiver shall be effective with the consent of the Required Lenders) 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 Commitment of any Lender, in each case without the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; 
  
 (ii) amend, modify or waive any provision of this Section or reduce any percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders,
consent to the assignment or transfer by 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 obligations under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, in each case without the consent of all the Lenders (but excluding the releases contemplated by Section 9.15(a) in connection with any Lingo Offering); 
  
 (iii) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 8, or
any other provision affecting the rights, duties or obligations of any Agent, without the consent of any Agent directly affected thereby; 

 (iv) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 2.13 without the consent of each
Lender directly affected thereby; or 
  
 (v)
impose restrictions on assignments and participations that are more restrictive than, or additional to, those set forth in Section 9.6. 
  
 Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification shall apply equally to each of the Lenders and shall be binding upon the Loan Parties, the Lenders, the
Agents and all future holders of the Loans. In the case of any waiver, the Loan Parties, the Lenders and the Agents 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. Any such waiver, amendment, supplement or modification
shall be effected by a written instrument signed by the parties required to sign pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section; provided, that delivery of an executed signature page of any such instrument by facsimile transmission
shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart thereof. 
  
 For the avoidance of doubt, this Agreement and any other Loan Document may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and each Loan Party to each
relevant Loan Document (x) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof (collectively, the
“Additional Extensions of Credit”) to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Loans and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and (y) to include appropriately the Lenders
holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders. 
  
 9.2. Notices. All notices, requests and demands to or upon the respective parties hereto to be effective shall be in writing (including by telecopy), and, unless otherwise expressly provided herein, shall be

“Indemnitee”) for, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from and against any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, 

 
actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever incurred by an Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by

whether brought by any third party or by the Borrower or any other Loan Party, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto (all the foregoing in this clause (d), collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”),
provided, that the Borrower shall have no obligation hereunder to any Indemnitee with respect to Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent
jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unauthorized persons of Information or other materials sent through electronic,

Assigns; Participations and Assignments. (a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Parent, the Borrower, the Lenders, the Agents, all future holders of the Loans and their respective successors and assigns, except that
the Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Agents and each Lender. 
  

(b) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, in accordance with applicable law, at any time sell to one or more banks, financial
institutions or other entities (each, a “Participant”) participating interests in any Loan owing to such Lender, any Commitment of such Lender or any other interest of such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan 

 
Documents. In the event of any such sale by a Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement to the
other parties to this Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance thereof, such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Loan for all purposes under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents,
and the Borrower and the Agents shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In no event shall any Participant under any
such participation have any right to approve any amendment or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document, or any consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, except to the extent that such amendment, waiver or consent would require the
consent of all Lenders pursuant to Section 9.1. The Borrower agrees that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement and the Loans are due or unpaid, or shall have been declared or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default, each Participant shall, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, be deemed to have the right of setoff in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent as if the amount of its
participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement, provided that, in purchasing such participating interest, such Participant shall be deemed to have agreed to share with the Lenders the proceeds thereof as
provided in Section 9.7(a) as fully as if such Participant were a Lender hereunder. The Borrower also agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15 and 2.16 with respect to its participation in the Commitments
and the Loans outstanding from time to time as if such Participant were a Lender; provided that, in the case of Section 2.15, such Participant shall have complied with the requirements of said Section, and provided, further,
that no Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to any such Section than the transferor Lender would have been entitled to receive in respect of the amount of the participation transferred by such transferor Lender to
such Participant had no such transfer occurred. 
  
 (c) Any Lender
(an “Assignor”) may, in accordance with applicable law and upon written notice to the Administrative Agent, at any time and from time to time assign, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (which, in each
case, shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) (provided that the consent of the Borrower need not be obtained with respect to any assignment of funded Loans to any bank, or to any investment fund or other financial institution engaged
in the ordinary course of its business in investing in assets such as the Loans), to any Lender or any affiliate, Related Fund or Control Investment Affiliate thereof, or any other bank, financial institution or other entity (each, an
“Assignee”), all or any part of its rights and obligations under this Agreement pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance, substantially in the form of Exhibit D, executed by such Assignee and such Assignor (and, where the consent of
the Borrower and the Administrative Agent is required pursuant to the foregoing provisions, by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent) and delivered to the Administrative Agent for its acceptance and recording in the Register; provided
that no such assignment to an Assignee (other than any Lender or any affiliate thereof) shall be in an aggregate principal amount of less than $1,000,000 (other than in the case of an assignment of all of a Lender’s interests under this
Agreement), unless otherwise agreed by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date determined pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, (x) the Assignee
thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder with Commitments and/or 

 
Loans as set forth therein, and (y) the Assignor thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations
under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of an Assignor’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Assignor shall cease to be a party hereto, except as to Section 2.14, 2.15 and 9.5 in respect
of the period prior to such effective date). Notwithstanding any provision of this Section, the consent of the Borrower shall not be required for any assignment that occurs at any time when any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.
For purposes of the minimum assignment amounts set forth in this paragraph, multiple assignments by two or more Related Funds shall be aggregated. 
  
 (d) The Administrative Agent shall, on behalf of the Borrower, maintain at its address referred to in Section 9.2 a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance
delivered to it and a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender from time to time. The entries in the
Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, each Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of the Loans and any Notes evidencing such Loans recorded
therein for all purposes of this Agreement. Any assignment of any Loan, whether or not evidenced by a Note, shall be effective only upon appropriate entries with respect thereto being made in the Register (and each Note shall expressly so provide).
Any assignment or transfer of all or part of a Loan evidenced by a Note shall be registered on the Register only upon surrender for registration of assignment or transfer of the Note evidencing such Loan, accompanied by a duly executed Assignment
and Acceptance; thereupon one or more new Notes in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the designated Assignee, and the old Notes shall be returned by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower marked “canceled”. The
Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender (with respect to any entry relating to such Lender’s Loans) at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 
  
 (e) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an Assignor
and an Assignee (and, in any case where the consent of any other Person is required by Section 9.6(c), by each such other Person) together with payment (by the Assignor or the Assignee, as agreed between them) to the Administrative Agent of a
registration and processing fee of $3,500 (treating multiple, simultaneous assignments by or to two or more Related Funds as a single assignment) (except that no such registration and processing fee shall be payable (y) in connection with an
assignment by or to a Lehman Entity or (z) in the case of an Assignee which is already a Lender or is an affiliate or Related Fund of a Lender or a Person under common management with a Lender), the Administrative Agent shall (i) promptly accept
such Assignment and Acceptance and (ii) on the effective date determined pursuant thereto record the information contained therein in the Register and give notice of such acceptance and recordation to the Borrower. On or prior to such effective
date, the Borrower, at its own expense, upon request, shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent (in exchange for the Note of the assigning Lender) a new Note to the order of such Assignee in an amount equal to the Loans acquired by it
pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance and, if the Assignor has retained a Loan, upon request, a new Note to the order of the Assignor in an amount equal to the Loan retained by it hereunder. Such new Note shall be dated the Closing Date and
shall otherwise be in the form of the Note replaced thereby. 

 (f) For avoidance of doubt, the parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the provisions of this Section
concerning assignments of Loans and Notes relate only to absolute assignments and that such provisions do not prohibit assignments creating security interests in Loans and Notes, including, without limitation, any bona fide pledge or assignment by a
Lender of any Loan or Note to any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with applicable law. 
  
 (g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”), identified as such in
writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, the option to provide to the Borrower all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrower pursuant
to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to make any Loan and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting
Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Each
party hereto hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby
agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute
against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United States or any state thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to
the contrary in this Section 9.6(g), any SPC may (A) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any
Loans to the Granting Lender, or with the prior written consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), to any financial institutions providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the
account of such SPC to support the funding or maintenance of Loans, and (B) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or
credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC; provided that non-public information with respect to the Borrower may be disclosed only with the Borrower’s consent which will not be unreasonably withheld. This paragraph (g) may not be
amended without the written consent of any SPC with Loans outstanding at the time of such proposed amendment. 
  
 9.7. Adjustments; Set-off. (a) Except to the extent that this Agreement provides for payments to be allocated to a particular Lender, if any Lender
(a “Benefitted Lender”) shall at any time 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 7(f), or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other Lender’s Obligations, such Benefitted Lender
shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of each such other Lender’s Obligations, 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) In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to Parent or the
Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by Parent and the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by Parent or the Borrower hereunder (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or
otherwise), to set off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case
whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of Parent or the Borrower, as the case may be. Each Lender agrees
promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. 
  
 9.8. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of
the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement or of a Lender
Addendum by facsimile transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. 

 
 9.9. 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. 
  
 9.10. Integration. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Non-Disclosure Acknowledgement Agreements (with respect to the Lenders parties
to the Non-Disclosure Acknowledgement Agreements and their respective Transferees) represent the entire agreement of Parent, the Borrower, the Agents, the Arranger and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and there are
no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Arranger, any Agent or any Lender relative to subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein, in the other Loan Documents or in the Non-Disclosure Acknowledgement
Agreements (with respect to the Lenders parties to the Non-Disclosure Acknowledgement Agreements and their respective Transferees). Certain of the Lenders have entered into agreements with the Arranger, copies of which have been provided by the
Arranger to the Borrower (the “Non-Disclosure Acknowledgement Agreements”), pursuant to which, inter alia, such Lenders have elected, in their sole discretion, to refrain from receiving non-public information
concerning Parent, the Borrower and their Subsidiaries that was furnished to other Lenders and prospective Lenders in connection with the syndication of the Facility, including, without limitation, the entire Confidential Information Memorandum and
statements and 

 
material relating to the business plan of the Parent, the Borrower and their Subsidiaries; and the Lenders which are signatories to Non-Disclosure
Acknowledgement Agreements, and their Transferees, are subject to all of the provisions thereof. 
  
 9.11. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND
INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 
  
 9.12. Submission To Jurisdiction; Waivers. Each of Parent and the Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally: 
  
 (a) submits for itself and its Property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party,
or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the non-exclusive general jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York, the courts of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York, and appellate
courts from any thereof; 
  
 (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 to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not
to plead or claim the same; 
  
 (c) agrees that service of process
in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to Parent or the Borrower, as the case may be, at its address set forth in
Section 9.2 or at such other address of which the Administrative Agent shall have been notified pursuant thereto; 
  
 (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. 
  
 9.13. Acknowledgments. Each of Parent and the Borrower hereby acknowledges that: 
  
 (a) it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and
delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; 
  
 (b)
neither the Arranger, any Agent nor any Lender has any fiduciary relationship with or duty to Parent or the Borrower arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and the relationship between the Arranger,
the Agents and the Lenders, on one hand, and Parent and the Borrower, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor; and 

 (c) no joint venture is created hereby or by the other Loan Documents or otherwise exists by virtue of
the transactions contemplated hereby among the Arranger, the Agents and the Lenders or among Parent, the Borrower and the Lenders. 
  
 9.14. Confidentiality. Each of the Agents and the Lenders agrees to keep confidential and maintains in strict confidence all non-public information
provided to it by any Loan Party pursuant to this Agreement that is designated by such Loan Party as confidential; provided that nothing herein shall prevent any Agent or any Lender from disclosing any such information (a) to the Arranger,
any Agent, any other Lender or any affiliate of any thereof, (b) to any Participant or Assignee (each, a “Transferee”) or prospective Transferee that agrees to comply with the provisions of this Section or substantially equivalent
provisions, (c) to any of its employees, directors, agents, attorneys, accountants and other professional advisors (provided that such Agent or Lender shall be responsible for ensuring compliance with this Section 9.14 by its employees,
directors, agents, attorneys, accountants and other professional advisors), (d) to any financial institution that is a direct or indirect contractual counterparty in swap agreements or such contractual counterparty’s professional advisor (so
long as such contractual counterparty or professional advisor to such contractual counterparty agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section), (e) upon the request or demand of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over it, (f) in
response to any order of any court or other Governmental Authority or as may otherwise be required pursuant to any Requirement of Law, (g) in connection with any litigation or similar proceeding, (h) that has been publicly disclosed other than in
breach of this Section, (i) to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about a Lender’s investment portfolio in connection
with ratings issued with respect to such Lender or (j) in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document. 
  
 9.15. Release of Collateral and Guarantee Obligations 
  
 (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, upon request of the Borrower in connection with any
Disposition of Property permitted by the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall (without notice to, or vote or consent of, any Lender, or any affiliate of any Lender that is a party to any Specified Hedge Agreement) take such actions as
shall be required to release its security interest in any Collateral being Disposed of in such Disposition, and to release any guarantee obligations under any Loan Document of any Person being Disposed of in such Disposition, to the extent necessary
to permit consummation of such Disposition in accordance with the Loan Documents. In addition, upon the request of the Borrower in connection with any Lingo Offering, the Lingo Subsidiary shall be released from its guaranty obligations and any other
obligations under the Loan Documents, and the Administrative Agent shall (without notice to, or vote or consent of, any Lender, or any affiliate of any Lender that is a party to any Specified Hedge Agreement) take such actions as shall be required
or reasonably requested by the Borrower to evidence such releases. 
  
 (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or any other Loan Document, when all Obligations (other than obligations in respect of any Specified Hedge Agreement) have been paid in full and all Commitments have terminated
or expired, upon request of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall (without notice to, or vote or consent of, any Lender, or any affiliate of any Lender that is a party to any Specified Hedge Agreement) take 

 
such actions as shall be required to release its security interest in all Collateral, and to release all guarantee obligations under any Loan Document,
whether or not on the date of such release there may be outstanding Obligations in respect of Specified Hedge Agreements. Any such release of guarantee obligations shall be deemed subject to the provision that such guarantee obligations shall be
reinstated if after such release any portion of any payment in respect of the Obligations guaranteed thereby shall be rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of
the Borrower or any Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Borrower or any Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as
though such payment had not been made. 
  
 9.16. Accounting
Changes. In the event that any “Accounting Change” (as defined below) shall occur and such change results in a change in the method of calculation of financial covenants, standards or terms in this Agreement, then the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent agree to enter into negotiations in order to amend such provisions of this Agreement so as to equitably reflect such Accounting Change with the desired result that the criteria for evaluating the Borrower’s financial
condition shall be the same after such Accounting Change as if such Accounting Change had not been made. Until such time as such an amendment shall have been executed and delivered by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders,
all financial covenants, standards and terms in this Agreement shall continue to be calculated or construed as if such Accounting Change had not occurred. “Accounting Change” refers to any change in accounting principles required by the
promulgation of any rule, regulation, pronouncement or opinion by the Financial Accounting Standards Board of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants or, if applicable, the SEC. 
  
 9.17. Delivery of Lender Addenda. Each initial Lender shall become a
party to this Agreement by delivering to the Administrative Agent a Lender Addendum duly executed by such Lender, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. 
  
 9.18. WAIVERS OF JURY TRIAL. PARENT, THE BORROWER, THE AGENTS AND THE LENDERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY
LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN. 

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed and delivered by
their proper and duly authorized officers as of the day and year first above written.
