One PNC Plaza

Pittsburgh, PA 15222-2707 
  

	 	Re:	$50,000,000 Revolving Credit Facility (“Loan”) pursuant to that certain Credit Agreement dated December 21, 2012 (the “Credit Agreement”) among the Lenders party
thereto (the “Lenders”), PNC Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent (the “Administrative Agent”), Stifel Nicolaus Weisel, as Joint Lead Arranger and Joint Bookrunner, Stifel

“Joinder Agreement”) by Armstrong Logistics Services, LLC, a Kentucky limited liability company (the “New Guarantor”) 

Ladies & Gentlemen: 
 We have acted as

(i) “Commonwealth” means the Commonwealth of Kentucky, (ii) “Collateral” means any and all property collateral in which a lien or security interest has been granted by New Guarantor to the

 As counsel for the New Guarantor, we have also examined such corporate and organizational
records of the New Guarantor, certificates and other documents and instruments and have researched such questions of law and examined the public records in such jurisdictions as we have considered necessary for the purpose of delivering this
Opinion. As to various matters of fact material to our Opinion, we have relied upon company records furnished to us by the Companies, upon certificates of, as applicable, the manager or other official record-keeper of the New Guarantor, and upon
certificates and telephone or facsimile updates thereof from various public officials. 
 Our opinions are limited to the laws of the
Commonwealth and, solely with respect to the enforceability of the Joinder Documents, the laws of the State of New York, and no opinion is rendered with respect to the laws of any other jurisdiction. 

Assumptions 
 For
purposes of this Opinion, we have, with your permission, assumed, without independent investigation: 
 (a) that the
documents submitted to us for review are accurate and complete, each such document that is an original is authentic, each such document that is a copy conforms to an authentic original, and all signatures on each such document are genuine; 

(b) that each individual executing the Joinder Documents had sufficient legal capacity to execute such documents and perform
their obligations thereunder; 
 (c) that the factual statements and information contained in each of the Joinder Documents
and other documents executed by the Companies and delivered to the Administrative Agent and Lenders in connection with the Loan are accurate and complete, and the description or reference therein to the Collateral accurately describes or refers to
all real and personal property described or referred to therein; 
 (d) that the Administrative Agent has obtained all
necessary authorizations and approvals to execute and deliver the Joinder Documents; the execution and delivery of the Joinder Documents are proper undertakings on the part of the Administrative Agent and are within the scope of the enumerated
powers of the Administrative Agent; and the Joinder Documents, and the transaction evidenced thereby, are valid, binding and enforceable against the Administrative Agent to the extent that such validity, binding effect and enforceability affects the
opinions herein expressed; 

 To the Lenders and the Administrative 

Agent referred to below 
 c/o PNC Bank, National Association, as
Administrative Agent 
 September 19, 2013 
 Page 3 

 

 (e) that each certificate issued by a government official concerning a
person’s property or status is accurate, complete and authentic and all official public records (including their proper indexing and filing) are accurate and complete; 

(f) that all terms and conditions of, or relating to, the transactions contemplated by the Joinder Documents are correctly and
completely embodied in the Joinder Documents and there are no other agreements or understandings among the parties or usage of trade or course of prior dealing among the parties that would, in any case, define, supplement or qualify the terms of any
of the Joinder Documents; 
 (g) that there has not been any mutual mistake of fact or misunderstanding, fraud, duress or
undue influence; 
 (h) that all recording and filing fees are paid in connection with recording or filing of any documents
mentioned herein; 
 (i) that the attorney preparer’s certificate and the notary acknowledgments in the Joinder
Documents have been properly executed under the law of the jurisdiction where they were acknowledged; 
 (j) that the
Companies hold requisite title and rights to the Collateral, including all real and personal property constituting a part thereof; and 

(k) that none of the Collateral consists or will consist of commercial tort claims, consumer goods or timber to be cut, as such
terms are defined in Article 9 of the UCC or items which are subject to a statute or treaty of the United States which provides for a national or international registration or a national or international certificate of title for the perfection of a
security interest therein or which specifies a place of filing different from that specified in the UCC for filing to perfect such security interest. 

Opinions 
 Based on
the foregoing and subject to the qualifications and assumptions set forth herein, we are of the opinion that: 
 1. The New
Guarantor is duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the Commonwealth and has the requisite corporate, partnership or limited liability company power to own its properties, to conduct the business in which it is presently engaged and
to enter into and perform its obligations under the Joinder Documents. The New Guarantor is qualified to do business as a foreign corporation, foreign limited partnership or foreign limited liability company in such other states where the failure to
so qualify would have a material adverse effect on the Loan or on the New Guarantor or its properties or operations. 

 To the Lenders and the Administrative 

Agent referred to below 
 c/o PNC Bank, National Association, as
Administrative Agent 
 September 19, 2013 
 Page 4 

 

 2. All of the Joinder Documents to which the New Guarantor is a party have
been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the New Guarantor and constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the New Guarantor, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms. 

3. The execution, delivery or performance by the New Guarantor of the Joinder Documents and the consummation by it of the
transactions contemplated thereby (a) will not violate any provision of the Organization Documents of the New Guarantor and (b) will not contravene any generally applicable provision of Commonwealth law applicable to the New Guarantor nor,
to our knowledge, any order, writ, injunction or decree applicable to the New Guarantor. To our knowledge, neither the execution, delivery nor performance by the New Guarantor of the Joinder Documents to which it is a party nor the consummation by
it of the transactions contemplated thereby will conflict or be inconsistent with, or result in any material breach of, constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of or the obligation to create or impose, any lien (except
pursuant to the Joinder Documents) upon any of the property or assets of the New Guarantor pursuant to the terms of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, agreement or other instrument to which the New Guarantor is a party or by which it or any of
its properties or assets is bound or to which it may be subject. 
 4. With the exception of the recording or filing of the
mortgages and financing statements noted on Schedule 1 hereof, no authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body is required of the New Guarantor in connection with
(i) the execution, delivery and performance by the New Guarantor of any of the Joinder Documents, or (ii) the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of any of the Joinder Documents against the New Guarantor. 

5. To our knowledge, there are no actions, suits, proceedings or investigations pending or threatened against the New Guarantor
at law or in equity before any Official Body which individually or in the aggregate could reasonably be likely to result in any Material Adverse Change. To our knowledge, the New Guarantor is not in violation of any order, writ, injunction or any
decree of any Official Body which could reasonably be likely to result in any Material Adverse Change.

Agent referred to below

 6. The Security Agreement creates an enforceable security interest (the
“Security Interest”) in the UCC Collateral in favor of the Administrative Agent. The due filing of the Financing Statement in the offices indicated on Schedule 1 hereof and the due filing of the As-Extracted Filing and
As-Extracted Amendments in the offices indicated on Schedule 1 hereof will perfect the Administrative Agent’s Security Interest in the UCC Collateral described in the Financing Statement, As-Extracted Filing and As-Extracted Amendments in which
a security interest may be perfected through the filing of financing statements under Article 9 of the UCC. Each of the As-Extracted Filing and the As-Extracted Amendments sufficiently provides the name of the New Guarantor for purposes of
Section 9-503 of the UCC and contains a description of as-extracted collateral and of the real property to which such as-extracted collateral is related sufficient for purposes of Sections 9-504, 9-502(2) and 9-108 of the UCC. 

7. The Mortgage and Mortgage Amendments are in proper form for recording, and upon due recordation of the Mortgage and Mortgage
Amendments in the applicable recording offices noted on the face thereof, the Mortgage and Mortgage Amendments (together with the underlying mortgages) will constitute, as security for the Loan, a valid mortgage lien of record in favor of
Administrative Agent on all of the New Guarantor’s right, title and interest in the Real Property described therein. 

8. Each of the Mortgage and Mortgage Amendments (together with the underlying mortgages) is (a) in proper form to
constitute a valid and effective “fixture filing,” as defined in the UCC, with respect to such of the Collateral as constitutes “fixtures,” as such term is defined in the UCC (“Fixtures”). The due
recordation of the Mortgage and Mortgage Amendments in the applicable county clerk’s office is the only filing necessary to entitle the Administrative Agent to the rights and benefits of filing a “fixture filing” under
Section 9-334 of the UCC with respect to the Fixtures. Each of the Mortgage and Mortgage Amendments sufficiently provides the name of the New Guarantor for purposes of Section 9-503 of the UCC and contains a description of the as-extracted
collateral and of the real property to which such fixtures are related sufficient for purposes of Sections 9-504, 9-502(b) and 9-108 of the UCC. 

9. The New Guarantor is not an investment company subject to registration or qualification under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), or a company controlled by a company required to register as such under the 1940 Act.

 Qualifications 

The opinions set forth above are subject to the following qualifications and limitations: 

A. The enforceability of the Joinder Documents may be subject to or limited by (a) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent
transfer or conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforceability of creditor’s rights generally and (b) general principles of equity, including a court’s power to redefine the nature of the relationship
between the parties (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). We express no opinion as to the availability of any equitable remedy, including specific performance. 

B. Certain remedies contained in the Joinder Documents may be unenforceable under or limited by the laws or court decisions of
the applicable jurisdiction, including, but not limited to, (i) provisions purporting to appoint the Administrative Agent as attorney-in-fact or agent for the New Guarantor, (ii) self-help provisions, waivers of constitutional rights,
waivers of rights of redemption, disclaimers, exculpation clauses, severability provisions, liability limitations with respect to the third parties, releases of legal or equitable rights, discharges of defenses, liquidated damages, late fees, waiver
of jury trial or provisions which purport to create remedies not available under applicable law, (iii) provisions which purport to shift evidentiary burdens of proof, (iv) any provisions purporting to modify rights to notice or service of
process requirements of the laws of the applicable jurisdiction, including, but not limited to, confession of judgment provisions, (v) any purported assignment of any approval, license, permit, lease, agreement or right for which the specific
consent of any other party or person affected thereby is required and has not been obtained, (vi) provisions that purport to preclude modification of the Joinder Documents through conduct, custom, or course of performance, action or dealing,
(vii) provisions purporting to indemnify the Administrative Agent or the Lenders for losses and expenditures resulting from the negligence of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders or persons acting on their behalf, (viii) covenants to
the extent that they can be construed to be independent clauses as distinguished from clauses which trigger events of default, (ix) provisions purporting to require the payment or reimbursement of fees, costs, expenses or other amounts which
are unreasonable in nature or amount or purporting to provide indemnification against liability for actions taken beyond the scope of the Joinder Documents, (x) provisions permitting foreclosure of the liens of any mortgage by any method other
than judicial foreclosure, and (xi) provisions purporting to waive any requirement of diligent performance or other care on the part of a secured party with respect to the recognition or preservation of any party’s rights to or interests
in any property subject to the security interests granted under the Joinder Documents; however, none of the foregoing will, in our opinion, prevent the practical realization of the principal benefits of the security intended to be provided thereby,
subject to the consequences of delay caused by the unenforceability of such provisions and subject to the qualifications set forth in “A” above.

 C. We offer no opinion regarding the enforceability of (i) any waiver of
the New Guarantor’s rights to reduce the maximum amount secured under either KRS §382.385 (revolver) or §382.520 (future advances), or (ii) provisions making the exercise of such waiver an event of default. 

D. The provisions of the Joinder Documents purporting to presently assign a lessor’s interest in leases, rents, income and
profits may be ineffective to create a perfected lien upon such leases, rents, income and profits on the date the Joinder Documents are executed, as under Commonwealth law such lien remains inchoate and unperfected until a receiver is appointed
pursuant to a judicial foreclosure or until such time as the Administrative Agent invokes the aid of a court of equity. Southern Trust Co. v. First City Bank & Trust Co., 82 S.W.2d 205 (1935) and Watts’ Adm’r v.
Smith, 63 S.W.2d 796 (1933). 
 E. Whenever our opinion herein with respect to the existence or non-existence of facts is
qualified by the phrase “to our knowledge” or any similar phrase implying a limitation on the basis of knowledge, it is intended to indicate that, during the course of our representation in connection with the transaction, no information
has come to the attention of the lawyers within our firm who have devoted substantive attention to this matter (the “Primary Lawyer Group”) which would give us current actual knowledge of the existence or non-existence of
such facts contrary to those opinions expressed herein and so qualified. No inquiry has been made of lawyers within this firm other than the Primary Lawyer Group, nor have other files of this firm been reviewed to determine the existence of facts
which alone or following other inquiry would indicate that any of the foregoing opinions are incorrect. We have not undertaken any independent investigation to determine the existence or absence of such facts, and no inference as to our knowledge or
information of the existence or absence of such facts should be drawn from our representation. 
 F. If any proceeds are
actually received by the New Guarantor, preservation of the Administrative Agent’s security interest in proceeds, as against third parties, may be subject to the limitation on perfection of a continued security interest in co-mingled cash
proceeds as set forth in Section 9-315 of the UCC. 
 G. Under Section 9-401 of the UCC, rights in the Collateral
may be voluntarily or involuntarily transferred notwithstanding a provision prohibiting any transfer or under which the transfer constitutes a default.

Agent referred to below

 H. In the case of property which becomes part of the Collateral after the
date hereof, Section 552 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code limits the extent to which property acquired by a debtor after the commencement of a case under the Federal Bankruptcy Code may be subject to a security interest arising from a security
agreement entered into by the debtor before the commencement of such case. 
 I. We note that Commonwealth law requires that
continuation statements must be filed as provided in the UCC not more than six months prior to the expiration of the five year period dating from the date of filing of a financing statement and not more than six months prior to the expiration of
each subsequent five year period after the original filing in order to protect the perfection and priority of the security interest in any personal property. Additional filings with respect to any personal property described in any financing
statement may also be necessary if the Borrower changes its name, the state of its organization or the location of the Collateral. 

J. The security interests of the Lenders will cease to be perfected as to items of collateral consisting of goods purchased
from the New Guarantor by a buyer in the ordinary course of business (Section 9-320 of the UCC) and as to collateral disposed of by the New Guarantor if such disposition is authorized by the Administrative Agent (Section 9-315 of the UCC), provided
that the cessation of perfection with respect to such items of collateral shall not apply to the proceeds of the disposition, if any, which shall be governed as provided by the rules otherwise applicable to perfection of “proceeds” as set
forth in the UCC. 
 K. Under certain circumstances described in Sections 9-320, 9-323 and 9-330 of the UCC, purchasers of
Collateral may take the same free of a perfected security interest. 
 L. We express no opinion as to the compliance or
non-compliance of any party to the Joinder Documents with legal requirements applicable by virtue of such party’s regulatory status or the conduct of such party’s business. 

M. No opinion is expressed as to the applicability of any securities or “blue sky” laws or laws of the Commonwealth
regulating financial institutions such as banks, savings and loan associations and federal savings banks. 
 N. We express no
opinion with respect to (i) the Companies’ right in, or title to, any Collateral; (ii) the priority or, as except as expressly stated herein, the perfection of the liens, security interests or assignments created by the Joinder
Documents, (iii) the adequacy of the description of the Real Property intended to be encumbered in connection with the Joinder Documents, and (iv) survey or zoning matters relating to the Real Property intended to be encumbered in
connection with the Joinder Documents.

 O. In any action or proceeding in any court in the Commonwealth arising out
of or relating to the Joinder Documents, while we believe that such court would (except for matters of procedure and remedies) recognize and give effect to the choice of law provisions of the Joinder Documents in which the parties agree that New
York law shall govern, so long as it was not determined by any such court that (i) the choice of law had no reasonable basis with respect to, or substantial relationship to the transactions contemplated by, the Joinder Documents, or that
(ii) the application of the law of a jurisdiction other than the Commonwealth would offend any public policy of the Commonwealth, we can give no assurances that such court would do so. In Paine v. La Quinta Motor Inns, Inc., 736 S.W.2d
355 (Ky. Ct. App. 1987), the Kentucky Court of Appeals ignored the parties’ choice of Texas law in applying Kentucky law to govern a real estate contract “where the property at the heart of the controversy is located in Kentucky, the
sellers are in Kentucky . . . and the contract was apparently executed at least partly in Kentucky.” Id. at 357 (citing Harris Corporation v. Comair, 712 F.2d 1069 (6th Cir. 1983)). Despite its conclusion in Harris that
Kentucky will apply its own laws when there are “significant contacts and no overwhelming interests to the contrary, even if the parties have voluntarily agreed to apply the law of a different state,” the U.S. Sixth Circuit Court of
Appeals recently concluded that “in a standard commercial breach-of-contract case . . . the Kentucky courts would choose to adopt §187 of the Restatement as their analytical framework for addressing a contractual choice-of-law
clause.” Wallace Hardware v. Abrams, 223 F.3d 382, 397 (6th Cir., 2000). The Kentucky Supreme Court has not recently ruled on this issue, and we point out that the Wallace Hardware decision is not binding on the Kentucky Supreme
Court. 
 P. No opinion is rendered concerning the effect of the Mortgage or Mortgage Amendments to secure any future advance
that is inconsistent with the maximum amounts set forth in the Mortgage or Mortgage Amendments or that is not advanced pursuant to the terms of the Joinder Documents. 

Q. This opinion is provided to you as a legal opinion only and not as a guarantee or warranty of the matters discussed herein.

 R. Our opinion is limited to the matters specifically addressed herein, and we express no opinion on, and no opinion is to
be inferred or implied with respect to, any matter not specifically expressed herein. The opinions expressed herein are rendered as of the date hereof and we assume no obligation to update or supplement any fact or other matter which may hereafter
come to our attention or any changes in applicable law which may hereafter occur.

 SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT 

This SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT, dated as of September 20, 2013 (this “Agreement”), is made by
and among MANUFACTURERS AND TRADERS TRUST COMPANY (“M&T”), individually, as the Issuing Bank, a Lender, the Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent, BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., as the Syndication Agent and a Lender, RBS
CITIZENS, N.A. and WELLS FARGO BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as Co-Documentation Agents and each a Lender, the LENDERS (referred to below), and GREATBATCH LTD., a New York corporation (the “Borrower”). M&T, when acting in
its capacity as administrative agent for the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, or any successor or assign that assumes that position pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, is hereinafter referred to as the “Administrative
Agent.” Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Article 1 (Definitions). 
 Background of
Agreement 
 The Borrower and its Subsidiaries are engaged in the business of developing, manufacturing, distributing and selling
medical device technologies for the cardiac, neurology, vascular and orthopaedic markets, and developing, manufacturing, distributing and selling battery and wireless sensing technologies for high-end niche applications in the energy, military,
portable medical and other markets and activities directly related to the foregoing. The Borrower, M&T and each lender party thereto entered into that certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of June 24, 2011 (as amended prior
to the date hereof, the “Existing Credit Agreement”). The Borrower has requested that the Lenders provide a senior credit facility, which would amend and restate the Existing Credit Agreement and which would consist of
(a) a revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed at any time (except as provided in Subsection 2.1.11 (Increases in Facility)) $300,000,000 with a letter of credit subfacility in an aggregate principal amount equal
to $15,000,000 and a swing line subfacility in an aggregate principal amount equal to $15,000,000 and (b) a term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed at any time (except as provided in Subsection 2.1.11 (Increases in
Facility)) $200,000,000. 
 The Borrower’s direct parent, Greatbatch, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”),
GB Ventures, and the Subsidiaries of the Borrower will derive substantial benefits from this credit facility. The Borrower may, among other things, use proceeds of the Loans hereunder to make capital contributions in, and extend credit to, its U.S.
Subsidiaries, GB Ventures, and, to the extent permitted hereby, its Foreign Subsidiaries. Such access to capital provided to the foregoing Subsidiaries through this financing is on terms that are more advantageous to such Subsidiaries than such
Subsidiaries could obtain if they accessed capital independently. Accordingly, the credit facilities provided for in this Agreement are to be guaranteed by Parent, GB Ventures, and, subject to the next sentence, the Borrower’s U.S. Subsidiaries
from time to time, and secured by the equity of the Borrower, GB Ventures, the U.S. Subsidiaries of the Borrower and sixty-six percent (66%) of the equity of certain of its Foreign Subsidiaries, as well as by the material assets of the
guarantors. Certain Ventures that are U.S. Subsidiaries are not required to become guarantors; however Ventures and Foreign Subsidiaries may become guarantors at a later date pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. 

 NOW, THEREFORE, it is agreed that the Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in
its entirety as follows:

finance Permitted Acquisitions or pursuant to any employee stock based compensation plans), the Borrower shall prepay, on the date of such issuance thereof, such amount of the Loans as is equal to fifty percent (50%) of the net cash proceeds of
such equity; provided, however, that so long as no Default or Event of Default exists at the time of the issuance of Capital Stock of a Venture or would exist immediately after giving effect thereto, the Borrower shall not be obligated
to make any prepayment of the Loans in connection with the issuance of Capital Stock of a Non-Guarantor Venture. 
 (c) Material Recovery
Event. In the event Parent, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (or the Administrative Agent as loss payee or assignee) receives property or casualty insurance proceeds and/or a condemnation or similar payment (relating to one event,
condition or transaction or a series of related events, conditions or transactions), 
 (i) in an amount in excess of Twenty Five Million
Dollars ($25,000,000) per occurrence, unless the Majority Lenders specifically consent to the use of such proceeds or other payment by the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary; 

(ii) in a lesser amount, if such Person does not, in fact, use the proceeds to repair or replace the applicable property within 180 days of
receipt of such proceeds; or 
 (iii) at the request of the Majority Lenders, in any amount if there is then an Event of Default that has
occurred and is continuing, 
 the Borrower shall promptly, and in any event no later than five (5) Business Days from the date of receipt thereof pay
to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, one hundred percent (100%) of all such insurance proceeds or payments as a prepayment of the Loans. 

  
 -31- 

 (d) Certain Asset Dispositions. At any time that Parent, the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries sells, transfers or otherwise disposes of any of its assets or property (other than dispositions permitted under clauses (a), (b), (c), (d), (f), (g) and (h) of Subsection 8.7.2 (Sales and Other Dispositions)), the Borrower
shall promptly prepay such amount of the Loans as is equal to the net cash proceeds of such disposition. If any proceeds are received in a form other than cash and subsequently converted into cash, then such proceeds shall be treated as net cash
proceeds for purposes of this clause (d) at such time as they are converted into cash. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as no Event of Default or Default is then existing, and the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent of its intent
to do so at the time of receipt thereof, the Borrower may use the net cash proceeds of such dispositions to reinvest in like assets not prohibited by the terms of this Agreement made within 180 days after receipt of the net cash proceeds provided,
however, that if the assets disposed of are held by the Borrower or a Subsidiary Guarantor, then the like assets shall also be held by the Borrower or a Subsidiary Guarantor. If the Borrower does not so notify the Administrative Agent, it shall
prepay the Loans within five (5) Business Days of receipt of the proceeds. If the Borrower does so notify the Administrative Agent, but the Borrower fails to use the net cash proceeds to reinvest in like assets within said 180-day period, then
the Borrower shall prepay the Loans on the date that is 180 days after the date of receipt of the net cash proceeds. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to permit dispositions otherwise prohibited by this Agreement. 

2.1.7 Repayment in connection with Commitment Reductions and on Maturity Date. Upon the effective date of each reduction in the
RC Commitment referred to in this Section 2.1 (whether voluntary or mandatory), the Borrower shall be required to pay to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders the principal amount of the RC Loans and/or Swing Loans, to the
extent, if any, that (a) the aggregate principal amount of any RC Loans and Swing Loans then outstanding plus LC Obligations exceeds (b) the amount of the Available RC Commitment as so reduced. All amounts of principal, interest and fees
relating to RC Loans not due and payable before the RC Maturity Date are due and payable on that date. 
 2.1.8 Voluntary
Prepayment. The Borrower shall be permitted to prepay the Loans at any time without penalty or premium except as otherwise provided in Subsection 2.8.5 (Breakage). In connection with each voluntary prepayment: 

(a) The Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent with notice of its intention to prepay, 

(i) no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York, NY time) on the date of prepayment in the case of Base Rate Loans; and 

(ii) no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York, NY time) three (3) Business Days prior to the date of prepayment in the case of LIBOR Loans.

 (b) Each prepayment of principal of a Loan shall be in an amount equal to the then full outstanding amount thereof or in a minimum amount
equal to One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) and integral multiples of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) in excess of such minimum amount. 

(c) The Borrower shall pay accrued interest on the amount prepaid if the Loans are repaid in full. 

  
 -32- 

 2.1.9 Application of Prepayments. Any voluntary prepayments of Loans pursuant to
Subsection 2.1.8 (Voluntary Prepayment) or mandatory prepayments pursuant to Section 2.1.6 (Mandatory Prepayments), in each case other than proceeds of sales of assets of, or equity interests in, Non-Guarantor Ventures), shall be applied
first, to outstanding Term Loans to reduce the applicable remaining quarterly payments under Section 2.1.4 (Repayment of Term Loans) in inverse order of maturity until there are no outstanding Term Loans; and second, to RC Loans
without a corresponding permanent reduction of the RC Commitment; provided that proceeds of sales of assets of, or equity interests in, Non-Guarantor Ventures, shall be applied solely to reduce the RC Loans, without any reduction in the
amount of the RC Commitment. 
 2.1.10 Relationship of Commitment Reductions, Mandatory Prepayments and Voluntary Prepayments to
Interest Rate Protection Agreements. Any voluntary reductions to the Commitment made pursuant to Subsection 2.1.5 (Voluntary Commitment Reductions and Prepayments), mandatory reductions to the Commitment made pursuant to Subsection 2.1.6
(Mandatory Prepayments and Reductions in the Facility) or voluntary prepayments of RC Loans pursuant to Subsection 2.1.8 (Voluntary Prepayments) shall not affect the Borrower’s obligation to continue making payments under any Interest Rate
Protection Agreement with any Swap Party, which obligations shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such prepayment, subject to the terms of such Interest Rate Protection Agreement. 

2.1.11 Increases in Facility. 

(a) Provided there exists no Default or Event of Default, the Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time, upon five
(5) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent to request an increase in the RC Commitment or in the Term Loan Commitment provided that (i) the aggregate amount of all such increases shall not exceed Two Hundred
Million Dollars ($200,000,000); (ii) each increase shall be in a minimum amount of at least Twenty Million Dollars ($20,000,000) and (iii) the Borrower may make a maximum of four (4) such requests. 

(b) No Lender shall be required to increase the amount of its Commitment, and no Lender shall be deemed to have increased the amount of its
Commitment except pursuant to a writing signed by such Lender. In the event that the existing Lenders do not agree to increase their RC Commitment or Term Loan Commitment, as applicable, in an amount equal to the amount requested by the Borrower, to
achieve the full amount of a requested increase and subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent (which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld), the Borrower may also invite additional Eligible Assignees to become Lenders pursuant to a
joinder or other agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and its counsel. 
 (c) If any Commitment is
increased in accordance with this Subsection 2.1.11 (Increases in Facility), the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall determine the effective date (the “Effective Date”) and the Administrative Agent shall determine the
final allocation of such increase. 

  
 -33- 

 (d) As a condition precedent to such increase, (i) the Borrower shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent a certificate of each Loan Party dated as of the Effective Date (in sufficient copies for each Lender) signed by a duly authorized officer of such Loan Party (A) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Loan
Party approving or consenting to such increase and (B) in the case of the Borrower, certifying that, before and after (on a pro forma basis) giving effect to such increase (1) the representations and warranties contained in Article 5
(Representations and Warranties) and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Effective Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in
which case they are true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date, and (2) no Default or Event of Default exists; (ii) counsel for the Borrower shall have provided to the Administrative Agent a supplemental opinion in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; (iii) the Borrower shall have delivered to each Lender, to the extent required under applicable Law, an amended Form U-1 which shall be executed by the Borrower and
completed to the satisfaction of the Administrative Agent, and which shall include a current list of the Collateral supporting the credit extended under this Agreement; (iv) the Borrower shall have executed and delivered such other instruments
and documents as the Administrative Agent shall have reasonably requested in connection with such increase and (v) Eligible Assignees that are to become Lenders pursuant to paragraph (b) above shall have executed such joinder or other
documents as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request. 
 (e) If the increase is of the RC Commitment, (i) the Loans under any
such incremental facility will mature on the RC Maturity Date, (ii) there shall be no scheduled commitment reduction prior to the RC Maturity Date and (iii) the interest rate and other terms shall be consistent with those for the existing
revolving credit facility. 
 (f) If the increase is of the Term Commitment, (i) the incremental Term Loans will mature no earlier than
the Term Loan Maturity Date, (ii) the weighted average life to maturity of any incremental Term Loans shall be no shorter than the weighted average life to maturity of the existing Term Loans, (iii) the interest rate margins for the
incremental Term Loans shall be determined by the Borrower and the Lenders of the incremental Term Loans (with the approval of the Administrative Agent); provided that in the event that the interest rate margins for any incremental Term Loans
are greater than the interest rate margins for the existing Term Loans, then the interest rate margins for the existing Term Loans shall be increased to the extent necessary so that the interest rate margins for the existing Term Loans are not more
than 50 basis points below the interest margins for the incremental Term Loans; provided, further, that in determining the interest rate margins applicable to the existing Term Loans and the incremental Term Loans, (i) original
issue discount (“OID”) or upfront fees (which shall be deemed to be like amounts of OID) payable by the Borrower to the Lenders of the existing Term Loans or the incremental Term Loans in the primary syndication, if applicable,
shall be included (with OID being equated to interest based on an assumed four-year life to maturity) and (ii) customary arrangement or commitment fees payable to the agents and/or arrangers (or their Affiliates) in connection with the any such
facility shall be excluded. 
 (g) All other terms of the incremental facilities, if inconsistent with the terms of the existing facilities,
shall be acceptable to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. The Lenders authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into one or more amendments or supplements to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the applicable Loan Parties to
effect the terms of this Subsection 2.1.11. 

  
 -34- 

 2.2 SWING LOANS. 

2.2.1 Swing Loan Advances. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, the Swingline Lender may (but
is not obligated to) make, from time to time, from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the RC Maturity Date, one or more Loans (“Swing Loans”) to the Borrower, in an aggregate outstanding principal amount not
exceeding at any time Fifteen Million Dollars ($15,000,000); provided, however, that no Swing Loan shall be made at any time in an amount in excess of the Available RC Commitment. 

2.2.2 Terms of Swing Loan Borrowings. The Borrower shall give the Swingline Lender notice (which shall be irrevocable) of
a request for a Swing Loan no later than 12:00 noon (New York, NY time) on the day such Loan is requested; if such notice is received later than 12:00 noon (New York, NY time), then the request shall be deemed to be a request for a Swing Loan to be
made on the next Business Day. Each Swing Loan shall be in a principal amount equal to or greater than Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000) and shall bear interest at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin. The Borrower shall repay the
principal amount of each Swing Loan (together with all accrued interest) no later than 3:00 p.m. (New York, NY time) on the earliest of (a) the date that is five (5) Business Days after the date that such Loan is made; (b) the date
that demand is made therefor by the Swingline Lender and (c) the RC Maturity Date. However, nothing in this Subsection 2.2.2 shall prohibit the Borrower from repaying any Swing Loan with the proceeds of another Swing Loan that it may borrow
hereunder. 
 2.2.3 Participation by Lenders. Upon demand made to the Lenders by the Swingline Lender, which demand may
be made before or after an Event of Default or Default, and before or after the maturity date of the subject Swing Loans, but subject to the provisions of Subsection 2.2.5 (Certain Limitations), each Lender shall promptly, irrevocably and
unconditionally purchase from the Swingline Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in the Swing Loans then outstanding. Each Lender shall effect such purchase by paying to the Swingline Lender in immediately
available funds, without reduction or deduction of any kind, including reductions or deductions for set-off, recoupment or counterclaim, an amount equal to such Lender’s pro rata share of the principal amount of all Swing Loans then
outstanding. Each Lender’s pro rata share of the Swing Loans shall be based on the amount of such Lender’s pro rata share of the total RC Commitment (or if the RC Commitment is then terminated, based on the amount of such RC
Lender’s pro rata share of the total RC Commitment at the time the Swing Loan immediately prior to termination of the RC Commitment). Thereafter, the Lenders’ respective interests in such Swing Loans, and the remaining interest of the
Swingline Lender in such Swing Loans, shall in all respects be treated as RC Loans under this Agreement, except that such Swing Loans shall be due and payable by the Borrower on the dates referred to in Subsection 2.2.2 (Terms of Swing Loan
Borrowings). 

  
 -35- 

 If any Lender does not pay any amount which it is required to pay pursuant to this Subsection
2.2.3 promptly upon the Swingline Lender’s demand therefor, (a) the Swingline Lender shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender, together with interest thereon, at the Federal Funds Rate for the first three
(3) Business Days, and thereafter at the Base Rate, for each day from the date of such demand, if made prior to 2:00 p.m. (New York, NY time) on any Business Day, or, if made at any later time, from the next Business Day following the date of
such demand, until the date such amount is paid in full to the Swingline Lender by such Lender and (b) the Swingline Lender shall be entitled to all interest payable by the Borrower on such amount until the date on which such amount is received
by the Swingline Lender from such Lender. Moreover, any Lender that shall fail to make available the required amount shall be a Defaulting Lender until such amount with interest is paid in full to the Swingline Lender by such Lender. Without
limiting any obligations of any Lender pursuant to this Subsection 2.2.3, if any Lender does not pay such corresponding amount promptly upon the Swingline Lender’s demand therefor, the Swingline Lender shall notify the Borrower and the Borrower
shall promptly repay such corresponding amount to the Swingline Lender together with accrued interest thereon at the applicable rate on such Swing Loans. 

2.2.4 No Set-off, Etc. Subject only to the limitations set forth in Subsection 2.2.5 (Certain Limitations), the
obligations of each Lender to make available to the Swingline Lender the amounts set forth in Subsection 2.2.3 (Participation by Lenders) shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable under any and all circumstances, shall be without reduction
for any set-off or counterclaim of any nature whatsoever, may not be terminated, suspended or delayed for any reason whatsoever, shall not be subject to qualification or exception and shall be made in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

 2.2.5 Certain Limitations. No Lender shall be obligated to purchase a participation in any Swing Loan pursuant to
Subsection 2.2.3 (Participation by Lenders), if such Lender proves that (a) the conditions set forth in Subsections 4.2.1 (No Default) or 4.2.3 (Representations and Warranties) were not satisfied at the time such Swing Loan was made (unless
such condition was waived in accordance with the terms of this Agreement) and (b) such Lender had notified the Swingline Lender in a writing received by the Swingline Lender at least one (1) Business Day prior to the time that it made such
Swing Loan that the Swingline Lender was not authorized to make such Swing Loan because such conditions were not satisfied and stating with specificity the reason therefor. 

2.2.6 Resignation of Swingline Lender. The Swingline Lender may resign at any time by giving 30 days’ prior notice to the
Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower, so long as the Swingline Lender uses commercially reasonable efforts to have a new Swingline Lender designated prior to the expiration of such notice period and such new Swingline Lender agrees to
assume the responsibilities of the Swingline Lender upon such expiration. After the resignation of the Swingline Lender hereunder, the retiring Swingline Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of
a Swingline Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect to Swing Loans made by it prior to such resignation, but shall not be required to make any additional Swing Loans. 

  
 -36- 

 2.3 BORROWING NOTICE. 

Each RC Loan that is a Base Rate Loan shall be in the minimum amount of Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) and integral multiples of Five Hundred
Thousand Dollars ($500,000) in excess of such minimum amount. Each RC Loan that is a LIBOR Loan shall be in the minimum amount of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) and integral multiples of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) in excess of such
amount. To effect a funding, the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent written notice in the form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit B specifying the type, amount and date of each intended borrowing and the manner in which the same
shall be disbursed, which notice: 
 (a) in the case of Base Rate Loans, shall be given no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York, NY time) at
least one (1) Business Day prior to the date of such borrowing; 
 (b) in the case of LIBOR Loans, shall be given no later than 11:00
a.m. (New York, NY time) at least two (2) Eurodollar Business Days prior to the date of such borrowing and shall specify the Interest Period with respect to such borrowing; and 

(c) in the case of Swing Loans, shall be given no later than 12:00 noon (New York, NY time) on the date of such borrowing. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may (but is not obligated to) act upon telephone notice by the Borrower whether or not written notice
is received; provided nothing in this sentence shall relieve the Borrower from providing written notice as provided by this Section. 

Except in the case of Swing Loans, the Administrative Agent in turn shall give prompt written or telephonic (promptly confirmed in writing)
notice to each Lender of its pro rata share of the borrowing, the interest rate option selected and the scheduled date of the funding. After receipt of such notice, each Lender shall make such arrangements as are necessary to assure that its
share of the funding shall be immediately available (in Dollars) to the Administrative Agent no later than 2:30 p.m. (New York, NY time), on the date on which the funding is to occur. After receipt of the funds, the Administrative Agent, subject to
the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.2 (Requirements for Each Loan/Letter of Credit), shall disburse the amount of such funding in accordance with instructions in the Borrower’s borrowing notice. 

The Lenders shall not be obligated to comply with a borrowing notice if there shall then exist an Event of Default or a Default regardless of
whether the Lenders have determined to exercise their remedies arising upon the occurrence of such Event of Default or Default. 
 2.4
[RESERVED]. 
 2.5 LENDERS’ OBLIGATIONS SEVERAL. 

Each Lender is severally bound by this Agreement, but there shall be no joint obligation of the Lenders under this Agreement. The failure of
any Lender to make any share of the Loans or fulfill any obligations respecting Letters of Credit to be made or fulfilled by it on the date specified for the Loans or such obligations shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation to make its
share of the Loans or fulfill other obligations on such date, but neither any Lender nor the Administrative Agent shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make a share of the Loans or fulfill other obligations to be made or
fulfilled by such other Lender. 

  
 -37- 

 2.6 NOTES. 

Upon the request of any Lender, the aggregate principal amount of each Lender’s share of the Term Loans shall be evidenced by a note to be
issued by the Borrower to each Lender in substantially the form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit A-1 (each, a “Term Note” and collectively, the “Term Notes”). Upon the request of any
Lender, the aggregate principal amount of each Lender’s share of the RC Commitment and RC Loans shall be evidenced by an amended and restated note to be issued by the Borrower to each Lender in substantially the form attached to this Agreement
as Exhibit A-2 (each, a “RC Note” and collectively, the “RC Notes”). Upon the request of the Swingline Lender, the Swing Loans and commitment therefor shall be evidenced by an amended and
restated note to be issued by the Borrower to the Swingline Lender in substantially the form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit A-3 (the “Swing Note”). Upon receipt of (a) an affidavit of an officer of a Lender
as to the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Note, and in the case of any such mutilation, upon cancellation of such Note, and (b) an appropriate indemnification agreement, the Borrower will issue, in lieu thereof, a replacement
Note. 
 2.7 FEES TO LENDERS. 

2.7.1 Commitment Fees. 

(a) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, quarterly in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date a
commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”) (calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed) equal to the Commitment Fee Rate multiplied by the Commitment Fee Base determined on an average daily basis. 

(b) The term “Commitment Fee Rate” shall mean the following: 

The Commitment Fee Rate shall be 0.250% from the date hereof until five (5) Business Days after the delivery of the Officer’s
Compliance Certificate for the period ending September 26, 2013 pursuant to Subsection 6.1.3 (Delivery of Officer’s Compliance Certificates). Thereafter, the Commitment Fee Rate shall be the rate specified below based on the Total Leverage
Ratio as reflected in the most recently delivered Officer’s Compliance Certificate: 
  

					
	 Total Leverage Ratio
	  	Commitment Fee Rate	 
	 3 2.00
	  	 	0.250	% 
	 x < 2.00
	  	 	0.175	% 

 The Commitment Fee Rate shall be adjusted five (5) Business Days after each Officer’s Compliance
Certificate is delivered pursuant to Subsection 6.1.3 (Delivery of Officer’s Compliance Certificates); provided, however, at any time that the Borrower shall have not delivered such certificate at the time specified in Subsection 6.1.3
(Delivery of Officer’s Compliance Certificates), until such time as such certificate is so delivered to the Administrative Agent, the Commitment Fee Rate shall be 0.250%. 

  
 -38- 

 (c) ”Commitment Fee Base” means an amount at any time equal to
(i) the RC Commitment less (ii) the sum of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding RC Loans, the face amount of outstanding Letters of Credit and any Unreimbursed Drawings in respect of Letters of Credit. Outstanding Swing
Loans shall not reduce the Commitment Fee Base. 
 (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, as a result of any restatement of or other
adjustment to the financial statements of the Borrower or for any other reason, the Borrower or the Majority Lenders determine that (i) the Total Leverage Ratio as calculated by the Borrower as of any applicable date was inaccurate and
(ii) an accurate calculation of the Total Leverage Ratio would have resulted in higher pricing for such period, the Borrower shall immediately and retroactively be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable
Lenders, promptly on demand by the Administrative Agent (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Borrower under Debtor Relief Laws, automatically and without further action by the
Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank), an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period. This clause
(d) shall not limit the rights of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, under Article 3 (Letters of Credit), Section 2.8 (Interest) or under Article 9 (Events of Default). The Borrower’s
obligations under this paragraph shall survive the termination of the Commitments and the repayment of all other Obligations hereunder. 

2.7.2 Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank and/or
Lenders, as applicable, such letter of credit fees as are described in Article 3 (Letters of Credit).

2.8 INTEREST. 

2.8.1 Rates. The Loans (other than Swing Loans) shall bear interest at the Borrower’s option (subject to the limitation and
conditions set forth in this Section 2.8) at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin or at the Adjusted LIBOR plus the Applicable Margin. Interest on Base Rate Loans shall be payable monthly on the first day of the month, in arrears,
commencing with the Month following the Month in which the Closing Date occurs. Interest on LIBOR Loans shall be payable on the last day of each Interest Period; provided, that if the Interest Period is six Months or longer, interest shall be
payable on the ninetieth day of the Interest Period, every ninetieth day thereafter until the end of the Interest Period and on the last day of the Interest Period. Swing Loans shall bear interest at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin on Base
Rate Loans; accrued interest on Swing Loans shall be payable at the earlier of (a) the date the principal amount of such Swing Loans are payable and (b) on the first day of each month, in arrears. All computations of interest shall be made
on the basis of a 360-day year (except, in the case of Base Rate Loans calculated with respect to the prime rate, computations of interest shall be made on the basis of a 365-day/366-day year) and the actual number of days elapsed. Changes in the
rate of interest resulting from changes in the Base Rate shall take place immediately without notice or demand of any kind. 

  
 -39- 

 2.8.2 Applicable Margin. Except as set forth in Subsection 2.8.3 (Adjustments to
Applicable Margin), (a) the term “Applicable Margin” when used with respect to the Base Rate shall mean the following:

	  	Base Rate Applicable Margin
for Loans	 
	 3 4.00
	  	 	0.750	%

	 2.00 £ x < 2.50
	  	 	0.000	% 
	 x < 2.00
	  	 	0.000	% 

 and (b) the term “Applicable Margin” when used with respect to Adjusted LIBOR shall mean the
following: 
  

					
	 Total Leverage Ratio
(Calculated on a Trailing Four-Quarter Basis)
	  	Adjusted LIBOR
Applicable Margin for Loans	 
	 3 4.00
	  	 	2.750	% 
	 3.00 £ x < 4.00
	  	 	2.250	% 
	 2.50 £ x < 3.00
	  	 	1.875	% 
	 2.00 £ x < 2.50
	  	 	1.625	% 
	 x < 2.00
	  	 	1.375	% 

 2.8.3 Adjustments to Applicable Margin. From the Closing Date until five (5) Business Days
after the financial statements and Officer’s Compliance Certificate for the period ending September 26, 2013 are delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Subsection 6.1.3 (Delivery of Officer’s Compliance Certificates), the
Applicable Margins shall be 0.000% for Base Rate Loans and 1.625% for LIBOR Loans. Thereafter, the Applicable Margin shall be adjusted five (5) Business Days after the delivery of each Officer’s Compliance Certificate most recently
delivered pursuant to Subsection 6.1.3 (Delivery of Officer’s Compliance Certificates); provided, however, at any time that the Borrower shall have not delivered such certificate at the time specified in Subsection 6.1.3 (Delivery of
Officer’s Compliance Certificates), until such time as such certificate is so delivered to the Administrative Agent, the Applicable Margin shall be the maximum amount for the applicable type of Loan set forth above and, provided
further, if the Borrower incorrectly reports or calculates the Leverage Ratio, the Administrative Agent or the Majority Lenders, in its or their sole discretion, may change interest retroactively based on the Applicable Margin that should
have been in effect for such period that the Leverage Ratio was incorrectly reported or calculated. The foregoing shall not limit any rights of the Lenders to receipt of the Default Rate, if applicable. 

  
 -40- 

 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the
financial statements of the Borrower or for any other reason, the Borrower or the Majority Lenders determine that (i) the Total Leverage Ratio as calculated by the Borrower as of any applicable date was inaccurate and (ii) an accurate
calculation of the Total Leverage Ratio would have resulted in higher pricing for such period, the Borrower shall immediately and retroactively be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders, promptly on
demand by the Administrative Agent (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Borrower under Debtor Relief Laws, automatically and without further action by the Administrative Agent, any Lender
or the Issuing Bank), an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period. This paragraph shall not limit the rights of the
Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, under Article 3 (Letters of Credit), this Section 2.8 (Interest) or under Article 9 (Events of Default). The Borrower’s obligations under this paragraph shall
survive the termination of the Commitments and the repayment of all other Obligations hereunder. 
 2.8.4 LIBOR
Election. 
 (a) Unless otherwise elected by the Borrower, all Loans shall be Base Rate Loans. The Borrower
may, upon at least two (2) Eurodollar Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent in the form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit C, and subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement,
elect to borrow money that will bear interest based on Adjusted LIBOR plus the Applicable Margin or to convert a portion of the Loans to bear interest based on Adjusted LIBOR plus the Applicable Margin. Any such election may be made with respect to
a principal amount designated in such notice and equal to at least One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) and integral multiples of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) in excess of such minimum, for the Interest Period next ensuing, which shall equal
one, two, three, or six (or, if available to all Lenders, twelve) Months as designated by the Borrower in its notice. 
 (b) The Borrower
may not convert any outstanding Loans to LIBOR Loans if at the time of such conversion there shall exist a Default or an Event of Default. 

(c) If an interest rate based on Adjusted LIBOR plus the Applicable Margin is elected, such interest rate shall remain in effect for the
Interest Period selected and such interest rate shall not otherwise be converted to another interest rate prior to the expiration of the Interest Period except as otherwise required by this Subsection 2.8.4. If an Interest Period for any LIBOR Loan
would otherwise commence on a day which is not a Eurodollar Business Day, such Interest Period shall commence on the next Eurodollar Business Day. 

  
 -41- 

 (d) Each LIBOR Loan shall, on the last day of the applicable Interest Period, automatically
convert into a Base Rate Loan unless, at least two (2) Eurodollar Business Days prior thereto, the Administrative Agent has received a notice in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C that the Borrower has elected to continue such Loan as
a LIBOR Loan. 
 (e) The Borrower may not elect an interest rate based on Adjusted LIBOR if such election would require the Administrative
Agent to administer concurrently a combination of elective rates of interest based on Adjusted LIBOR and/or a combination of Interest Periods that exceed an aggregate of ten. 

(f) No Interest Period may be elected that would end later than the RC Maturity Date or the Term Loan Maturity Date, as the case may be. 

2.8.5 Breakage. In the event that the Borrower makes a prepayment (whether voluntary or mandatory) of any LIBOR Loans on a day
other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period, including any such prepayment as a result of an assignment required by Subsection 2.14.2 (Replacement of Lenders), or fails to borrow a LIBOR Loan, or fails to convert a Loan to a LIBOR Loan
on the date specified in the applicable notice, the Borrower will pay to the Administrative Agent, upon demand, for the account of the affected Lenders, any cost, loss or expense incurred as a result thereof. Each affected Lender shall certify the
amount of such cost, loss or expense to the Borrower, which certification and statement shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. 

2.8.6 Default Rate. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of
an Event of Default (whether or not the Administrative Agent has accelerated payment of the Notes), upon notice from the Administrative Agent, which may be retroactive to the Event of Default, the unpaid principal of the Loans, Letter of Credit Fees
and all reimbursement obligations in respect of Letters of Credit shall bear interest at the interest rate otherwise in effect plus two percent (2%) (the “Default Rate”). 

2.8.7 Source of Funds. Although each Lender may elect to purchase in the London Inter-Bank Eurocurrency Market one or more
Eurodollar Deposits in order to fund or maintain its funding of LIBOR Loans hereunder, it is acknowledged that the provisions of this Agreement relating to such funding are included only for the purpose of determining the rate of interest to be paid
and any other amounts owing under this Agreement in connection with such election, and each Lender shall be entitled to fund and maintain its funding of all or any part of that portion of the principal amount of the Loans in any manner it sees fit.
Nonetheless, all such determinations shall be made as if each Lender had actually funded and maintained its LIBOR Loans through the purchase of Eurodollar Deposits. 

  
 -42- 

 2.8.8 Interest Due with Certain Repayments and Prepayments. In addition to payments
of accrued interest as provided in Subsection 2.8.1 (Rates), accrued interest on the following repayments and prepayments shall be due and payable at the time of such repayments and prepayments: 

(a) all repayments and prepayments of Swing Loans; and 

(b) all repayments and prepayments of RC Loans on the RC Maturity Date (whether such date is the originally contemplated Maturity Date, a
later date on which the RC Commitment is extended or an earlier date on which the RC Commitment is terminated) it being understood that this Subsection 2.8.8 does not interfere with the obligation of the Borrower pursuant to Subsection 2.8.5
(Breakage) with respect to any such repayment or prepayment. 
 2.9 INCREASED COSTS; UNAVAILABILITY. 

2.9.1 Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall: 

(a) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets
of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBOR) or the Issuing Bank; 

(b) subject any Lender or the Issuing Bank to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any
participation in a Letter of Credit or any LIBOR Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender or the Issuing Bank in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 2.13 (Taxes) and
the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender or the Issuing Bank); or 
 (c) impose on any
Lender or the Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or LIBOR Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; 

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any
LIBOR Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender or the Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or
to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender or the Issuing Bank, the
Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. 

  
 -43- 

 2.9.2 Capital Requirements. If any Lender or the Issuing Bank determines
that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or the Issuing Bank or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect
of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or
the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit or Swing Loans held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing
Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company with
respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the
Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. 
 2.9.3 Certificates for Reimbursement. A
certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in Subsections 2.9.1 (Increased Costs Generally) or
2.9.2 (Capital Requirements) and delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten
(10) days after receipt thereof. 
 2.9.4 Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the
Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.9 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided, that the Borrower shall not be required to
compensate a Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section 2.9 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower
of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions
is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof). 
 2.9.5
Inability to Determine LIBOR. In the event that the Administrative Agent or the Majority Lenders shall have determined that for any reason it has become impossible or impracticable to determine the Adjusted LIBOR (or the Adjusted LIBOR
for any specified Interest Periods), the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice of such determination to the Borrower. In that case, no part of the Loans shall thereafter be available at the Adjusted LIBOR (or at the Adjusted LIBOR for the
specified Interest Period) until the Administrative Agent determines that the circumstances described above cease to exist. 
 2.9.6
Laws Affecting LIBOR Availability. If any Lender shall determine that it has become unlawful or impossible for such Lender (or any of its lending offices) to make or maintain LIBOR Loans (or LIBOR Loans of a specified duration) due to
(a) the introduction of, or any change in, any Law or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, or (b) compliance by any Lender (or any of its lending offices) with any request or directive
(whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, such Lender shall promptly give notice thereof to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to the Borrower and the other
Lenders. Thereafter, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that such circumstances no longer exist, (i) the obligations of the Lenders to make such LIBOR Loans (or LIBOR Loans of the specified duration) and the right of the
Borrower to convert any Loan or continue any Loan as such shall be suspended and thereafter the Borrower may select only Base Rate Loans (or LIBOR Loans of other durations) hereunder, and (ii) if any Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain
a Loan as a LIBOR Loan to the end of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto, the applicable Loan shall immediately be converted to a Base Rate Loan. 

  
 -44- 

 2.10 PURPOSE. 

The proceeds of the Loans shall be used by the Borrower: (a) to refinance existing Indebtedness; (b) to make Restricted Payments
permitted under this Agreement; (c) to finance acquisitions, investments and Capital Expenditures permitted under this Agreement; and (d) to provide for working capital needs and general corporate purposes; provided, however, that
none of the proceeds of the Loans may be used by any Loan Party to purchase or carry any Margin Stock in violation of applicable Law including, Regulations T, U and X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. 

2.11 MECHANICS OF PAYMENTS: BORROWER PAYMENTS. 

2.11.1 Manner of Making Payments. All payments on account of principal of and interest on the Loans, the Commitment Fee, and all
other amounts otherwise payable to the Lenders under this Agreement (other than payments in respect of Swing Loans which shall be made directly to the Swingline Lender) shall be made to the Administrative Agent. All payments shall be made by the
Borrower to the Administrative Agent, in Dollars in immediately available funds, without counterclaim or setoff and free and clear of, and without any deduction or withholding for, any taxes or other payments. Unless otherwise specified, all
payments by the Borrower shall be made by 12:00 noon (New York, NY time) on the due date for such payment, (and if by wire transfer, in accordance with the instructions on the signature page to this Agreement) or by the Administrative Agent debiting
an account of the Borrower with the Administrative Agent. The failure by the Borrower to make a payment by 12:00 noon (New York, NY time) shall not constitute an Event of Default if such payment is made on the due date; however, any payment made
after such time on such due date shall be deemed made on the next Business Day for the purpose of interest and reimbursement calculations. 

2.11.2 Payments by Borrower; Presumptions by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received
notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that
the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made
such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Bank, with interest thereon, for each day
from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking
industry rules on interbank compensation. 

  
 -45- 

 2.11.3 Disbursements from Administrative Agent to Lenders. The Administrative Agent
shall promptly remit to each Lender its pro rata share of payments received pursuant to Subsection 2.11.1 (Manner of Making Payments) in immediately available funds, except that all reimbursement payments in respect of losses, out-of-pocket
expenses, funding losses or like matters shall be retained by the Administrative Agent or remitted to the Lenders according to their respective appropriate entitlement to such reimbursement and except as otherwise provided with respect to Defaulting
Lenders. Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, payments from the Borrower shall be applied first to fees, then to interest (to the extent then payable), then to principal of Base Rate Loans, and then to principal
of LIBOR Loans (and among such LIBOR Loans, first to those with the earliest expiring Interest Periods). 
 2.11.4 Authorization to
Deduct Funds and Make Loans in Satisfaction of Obligations. At any time that the Borrower is required to make a payment of principal, interest, reimbursement obligations in respect of Letters of Credit, fees, costs, expenses or other
amounts pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents and, in any case, fails to do so, in addition to other rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and Lenders hereunder, under the other Loan Documents and at Law, the
Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Lenders (at their option, after receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent to do so) to cause the aforesaid payments to be made first by drawing under the credit facilities provided
under this Agreement, and then (if there is no availability under the Commitment) by deducting funds from the balance of any of the Borrower’s accounts maintained with the Administrative Agent, or by making additional loans (and any such loans
shall be subject to interest at the Default Rate and shall be part of the Obligations secured by all of the security interests granted pursuant to the Loan Documents); provided, however, that notwithstanding the making by the Lenders of any
of the aforesaid payments as set forth in this sentence, the failure of the Borrower to make any of the aforesaid payments when due shall constitute an Event of Default. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders may cause payments to be made pursuant
to this Subsection 2.11.4, in their sole discretion, regardless of the existence of an Event of Default and whether or not the aggregate amount of the outstanding Loans, after giving effect to such payments, exceeds the amount of the Commitments.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lenders shall have no obligation to make any additional loans to the Borrower pursuant to this Subsection 2.11.4. 

2.11.5 Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or
otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or other obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest
thereon or other such obligations greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at
face value) participations in the Loans and such other obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the
aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them, provided that 

  
 -46- 

 (a) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise
thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and 

(b) the provisions of this Subsection 2.11.5 shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in
accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a
participation in any of its Loans or participations in Unreimbursed Drawings to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this Subsection 2.11.5 shall apply). 

The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a
participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower’s rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of
such participation. 
 2.11.6 Payments Due on Non-Business Days. Subject to Subsection 2.8.4 (LIBOR Election) as to payments
with respect to Adjusted LIBOR, if any payment under the Loan Documents becomes due on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date of such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall be included
in computing interest and fees in connection with such payment. 
 2.12 MECHANICS OF PAYMENTS; LENDER PAYMENTS.

 2.12.1 Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received
notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Loan, that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Loan, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share
available on such date in accordance with Section 2.3 (Borrowing Notice) and may, in reliance upon such assumption (but shall not be required to), make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact
made its share of the applicable Loan available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each
day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and
a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, and (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Loans bearing interest at the Base
Rate plus Applicable Margin. If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by
the Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Loan to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in the applicable borrowing. Any payment by the Borrower shall
be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent. 

  
 -47- 

 2.13 TAXES 

2.13.1 Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any
other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, provided that if the Borrower shall be required by applicable Law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes (including
any Other Taxes) from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.13) the
Administrative Agent, each Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower
shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law. 
 2.13.2 Payment
of Other Taxes by the Borrower. Without limiting the provisions of Subsection 2.13.1 (Payments Free of Taxes), the Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

 2.13.3 Indemnification. 

(a) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Issuing Bank, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the
full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.13) paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing
Bank, as the case may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental
Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender or the Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or
the Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 
 (b) Without limiting other indemnities in this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, each Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender that are payable by the Administrative Agent, and reasonable expenses arising
therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Excluded Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the
Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

  
 -48- 

 2.13.4 Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy
of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
 2.13.5
Status of Lenders. Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the Law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is resident for tax purposes, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction
is a party, with respect to payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document 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 or the
Administrative Agent, 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 of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if requested by the
Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine
whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. 
 Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is resident for tax purposes in the United States of America, any Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient)
on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, but only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so),
whichever of the following is applicable: 
 (a) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN claiming eligibility for
benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States of America is a party, 
 (b) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service
Form W-8ECI, 
 (c) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of
the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of
section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (y) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, and/or 

(d) any other form prescribed by applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States Federal withholding tax
(including, but not limited to, any documentation required by FATCA) duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Law to permit the Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction required to be
made. 

  
 -49- 

 2.13.6 Treatment of Certain Refunds. If the Administrative Agent, a Lender or the
Issuing Bank determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this
Section 2.13, it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 2.13 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes
giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect
to such refund), provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the
relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank in the event the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph
shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person. 

2.13.7 Survival. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower hereunder, the agreements and
obligations of the Borrower contained in this Section 2.13 shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of the Commitments. 

2.14 MITIGATION OBLIGATIONS; REPLACEMENT OF LENDERS. 

2.14.1 Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.9 (Increased Costs;
Unavailability), or requires the Borrower to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.13 (Taxes), then such Lender shall (at the request of Borrower) use
reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such
designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.9 (Increased Costs; Unavailability) or Section 2.13 (Taxes), as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender
to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. 

2.14.2 Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.9 (Increased Costs;
Unavailability), or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.13 (Taxes), or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, or if any Lender
does not approve an amendment of this Agreement or any other Loan Document which is approved by the Majority Lenders and which is required to also be approved by such Lender to be effective pursuant to Section 11.5 (Amendment, Waiver and
Consents) (any such Lender, a “Non-Consenting Lender”) then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without
recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 11.6 (Successors and Assigns), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an
Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that 

  
 -50- 

 (a) the Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in
Section 11.6 (Successors and Assigns), 
 (b) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal
of its Loans and participations in Unreimbursed Drawings, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Subsection 2.8.5 (Breakage)) from the
assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts), 

(c) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.9 (Increased Costs; Unavailability) or
payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.13 (Taxes), such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter, 

(d) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Law, and 

(e) in the case of any assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented to
the applicable amendment, waiver or consent. 
 A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a
waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. 

2.15 DEFAULTING LENDERS. 

2.15.1 Defaulting Lender Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes
a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law: 

(a) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender shall not have the right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent
with respect to this Agreement or other Loan Documents except (a) no Commitment of any Lender may be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender, (b) the principal amount of any Loans outstanding to such Defaulting Lender may
not be waived, forgiven or reduced without such Lender’s consent (unless all Lenders affected thereby are treated similarly), or (c) the final maturity date(s) of such Defaulting Lender’s Loans may not be extended without such
Defaulting Lender’s consent (unless all Lenders affected thereby are treated similarly). 

  
 -51- 

 (b) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other
amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article 9 (Events of Default) or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting
Lender pursuant to Section 11.11 (Right of Setoff) shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: 

first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; 

second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender
hereunder; 
 third, to Cash Collateralize the Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in
accordance with paragraph (e) below (Cash Collateral; Repayment of Swing Loans); 
 fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long
as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; 

fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists) the Borrower, to be held in
a deposit account and released in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the Issuing Bank’s future Fronting
Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with paragraph (e) below (Cash Collateral; Repayment of Swing Loans); 

sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Bank or Swingline Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court
of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Issuing Bank or Swingline Lenders against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; 

seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any
judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and 

eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; 

provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or Unreimbursed Drawings in respect of which
such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 (Requirements for Each Loan/Letter of
Credit) were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and Unreimbursed Drawings owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or Unreimbursed
Drawings owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in LC Obligations and Swing Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments under the applicable facility without
giving effect to paragraph (d) below (Defaulting Lender – Reallocation of Participation to Reduce Fronting Exposure). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay
amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Subsection 2.15.1(b) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. 

  
 -52- 

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

(i) Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive letter of credit fees otherwise payable to it for any period during which that Lender
is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Applicable Percentage of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to paragraph (e) below (Cash Collateral; Repayment of Swing Loans).

 (ii) With respect to any Commitment Fee, any such other fees due hereunder or letter of credit not required to be paid to any Defaulting
Lender pursuant to this Section 2.15, the Borrower shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in LC
Obligations or Swing Loans that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) below, (y) pay to each Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender, as applicable, the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such
Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such Issuing Bank’s or Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee. 

(d) Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in LC
Obligations and Swing Loans shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that
(x) the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 (Requirements for Each Loan/Letter of Credit) are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless the Borrower shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at such time, the
Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and (y) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such
Non-Defaulting Lender’s RC Commitment. No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any
claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation. 
 (e)
Cash Collateral; Repayment of Swing Loans. If the reallocation described in clause (d) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law,
(x) first, prepay Swing Loans in an amount equal to the Swingline Lenders’ Fronting Exposure and (y) second, Cash Collateralize the Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Subsection 2.17
(Cash Collateral). 

  
 -53- 

 2.15.2 Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender
and Issuing Bank and, if no Event of Default shall then have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower, agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the
effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding
Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in
accordance with the Commitments under the applicable facility (without giving effect to paragraph (d) of Subsection 2.15.1 (Defaulting Lender Adjustment – Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure), whereupon such Lender
will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided,
further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that
Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. 
 2.15.3 New Swing Loans/Letters of Credit. So long as any Lender is a
Defaulting Lender, (i) the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swing Loans unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect to such Swing Loan and (ii) no Issuing Bank shall be required to
issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto. 

2.16 TERMINATION OF DEFAULTING LENDER. THE BORROWER MAY TERMINATE THE UNUSED AMOUNT OF THE RC COMMITMENT OF ANY RC LENDER
THAT IS A DEFAULTING LENDER UPON NOT LESS THAN FIVE BUSINESS DAYS’ PRIOR NOTICE TO THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT (WHICH SHALL PROMPTLY NOTIFY THE LENDERS THEREOF), AND IN SUCH EVENT THE PROVISIONS OF PARAGRAPH (D) OF SUBSECTION 2.15.1(B)
(DEFAULTING LENDER WATERFALL) WILL APPLY TO ALL AMOUNTS THEREAFTER PAID BY THE BORROWER FOR THE ACCOUNT OF SUCH DEFAULTING LENDER UNDER THIS AGREEMENT (WHETHER ON ACCOUNT OF PRINCIPAL, INTEREST, FEES, INDEMNITY OR OTHER AMOUNTS); PROVIDED
THAT (I) NO EVENT OF DEFAULT SHALL HAVE OCCURRED AND BE CONTINUING, AND (II) SUCH TERMINATION SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO BE A WAIVER OR RELEASE OF ANY CLAIM THE BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY ISSUING BANK, THE SWINGLINE LENDER OR ANY
LENDER MAY HAVE AGAINST SUCH DEFAULTING LENDER. 

  
 -54- 

 2.17 CASH COLLATERAL. 

Without limiting the provisions of Subsection 3.1.9 (Cash Collateral Account), at any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within
one Business Day following the written request of the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), if the reallocation described in paragraph (d) of Subsection 2.15.1 (Defaulting Lender Adjustments –
Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure) cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize the Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving
effect to such paragraph (d) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in an amount not less than the Minimum Collateral Amount. 

(a) Grant of Security Interest. The Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby
grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Bank, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral as security for the Defaulting Lenders’ obligation to fund participations in respect
of LC Obligations, to be applied pursuant to clause (b) below. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank as
herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the Minimum Collateral Amount, the Borrower will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral
in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender). To the extent that such Cash Collateral is also subject to a Lien securing the Secured Obligations, notwithstanding
any provision in the Loan Documents to contrary, such Cash Collateral shall be used for the purposes described in this Section. 
 (b)
Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this Section 2.17 (Cash Collateral) or Section 2.15 (Defaulting Lenders) in respect of Letters of Credit shall be
applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of LC Obligations (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the Cash
Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein. 
 (c) Termination
of Requirement. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce any Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.17 (Cash Collateral)
following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender), or (ii) the determination by the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank that there
exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that, subject to Section 2.15 (Defaulting Lenders) the Person providing Cash Collateral and each Issuing Bank may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting
Exposure or other obligations and provided further that to the extent that such Cash Collateral was provided by the Borrower, such Cash Collateral shall remain subject to the security interest granted pursuant to the Loan Documents.

 2.18 EXTENSION OF RC MATURITY DATE. 

2.18.1 Notice of Extension. The Borrower may, by notice (the “Extension Notice”) to the
Administrative Agent (who shall promptly notify the Lenders) not earlier than 180 days (unless the Administrative Agent shall, in its sole discretion, agree to an earlier date) and not later than 90 days prior to the initial RC Maturity Date (unless
the Administrative Agent shall, in its sole discretion, agree to a later date) (the “Existing RC Maturity Date”), extend the RC Maturity Date for an additional 364 days from the Existing RC Maturity Date. 

If, but only if, at the time that the Extension Notice is delivered, each of the following conditions is satisfied, the RC Maturity Date shall
thereafter be deemed to be the date that is the one-year anniversary of the Existing RC Maturity Date (if such date is not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately preceding such date). 

(a) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such extension both before and after giving effect
thereto; 
 (b) the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement shall be true and correct in all respects (or in all material
respects if any such representation or warranty is not by its terms already qualified as to materiality) on and as of the date of such extension and both before and after giving effect thereto, as though made on and as of such date (or, if any such
representation or warranty specifically refers to an earlier date, as of such earlier date); 
 (c) the Borrower shall have paid to the
Administrative Agent (for the benefit of each RC Lender) an extension fee equal to 0.125% of such RC Lender’s pro rata portion of the RC Commitment; and 

(d) the Borrower, concurrently with or promptly after, delivery of the Extension Notice, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, a
certificate confirming satisfaction of the conditions in (a) and (b) above. 
 ARTICLE 3 

LETTERS OF CREDIT 

3.1 LETTERS OF CREDIT. 

3.1.1 Commitment to Issue Letters of Credit. Subject to the requirements set forth below, the Borrower may use a portion
of the RC Commitment, which portion shall not exceed the sum of Fifteen Million Dollars ($15,000,000) (the “Letter of Credit Sublimit”) for the purpose of causing the Issuing Bank to issue standby Letters of Credit for
the account of the Borrower or any of its U.S. Subsidiaries; provided, that (a) the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary executes and delivers a letter of credit application and reimbursement agreement in a form acceptable to the
Issuing Bank and complies with any conditions to the issuance of such Letter of Credit (including the payment of any applicable fees) set forth therein; (b) the Issuing Bank approves the form of such Letter of Credit; (c) except for
evergreen Letters of Credit approved by the Issuing Bank it is sole discretion, but which will not be extended for a period 

  
 -56- 

 
past the RC Maturity Date, such Letter of Credit bears an expiration date not later than the earlier of (i) one year after the date of issuance and (ii) 30 days prior to the RC Maturity
Date; (d) the Issuing Bank receives a request for issuance three (3) Business Days prior to the date of issuance (unless the Issuing Bank, in its sole and absolute discretion, agrees to shorter notice in any instance); (e) the purpose
of such Letter of Credit shall be acceptable to the Issuing Bank; and (f) the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 (Requirements for Each Loan/Letter of Credit) are fulfilled to the satisfaction of the Issuing Bank as of the date of the
issuance of such Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding anything in this Article 3, the Issuing Bank shall be under no obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if there is a Defaulting Lender, unless the Issuing Bank has entered into arrangements
satisfactory to the Issuing Bank with the Borrower or such Lender to eliminate the Issuing Bank’s risk with respect to such Defaulting Lender. 

3.1.2 Reimbursement Obligations. The Borrower (or any U.S. Subsidiary that is an account
party) is absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably obligated to reimburse the Issuing Bank for all amounts drawn under each Letter of Credit. If any draft is presented under a Letter of Credit, the payment of which is required to be made at any
time on or before the RC Maturity Date, then payment by the Issuing Bank of such draft shall constitute an RC Loan (which is a Base Rate Loan) hereunder the proceeds of which are used to reimburse the Issuing Bank (without regard to any required
notice periods, Available RC Commitment amount or minimum advance requirements, all of which are waived for this purpose) and interest shall accrue from the date the Issuing Bank makes payment on such draft under such Letter of Credit
provided, however, if there is not then an Available RC Commitment in an amount at least equal to the amount of the draw, Borrower shall repay the excess amount of the Loan within one (1) Business Day after the date that the Issuing Bank
notifies the Borrower of such deemed Loan. The Borrower further agrees that the Issuing Bank may reimburse itself for such drawing at any time when there is no Available RC Commitment from the balance in any other account of the Borrower maintained
with the Issuing Bank. 
 3.1.3 Limitation on Amount. The Issuing Bank shall
not be obligated or permitted under this Section 3.1 to issue any Letter of Credit for the account of the Borrower to the extent that the sum of (a) the amount that would be available to be drawn under the proposed Letter of Credit plus
(b) the sum of all amounts available to be drawn under outstanding Letters of Credit plus (c) any Unreimbursed Drawings would exceed the lesser of (i) the Letter of Credit Sublimit and (ii) the excess of the RC Commitment over
the aggregate principal amount of the RC Loans and Swing Loans then outstanding. 
 3.1.4 Obligations
Absolute. The Borrower’s obligations under this Section 3.1 (including any obligations to repay draws under Letters of Credit issued hereunder) shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of
the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default or any condition precedent whatsoever or any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment that the Borrower may have or have had against the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any
beneficiary of a Letter of Credit. The Borrower further agrees that the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall not be responsible for, and the Borrower’s reimbursement obligations shall not be affected by, among other
things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even if such documents should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute between or among the Borrower, the beneficiary of
any Letter of Credit or  

  
 -57- 

 
any financial institution or other party to which any Letter of Credit may be transferred or any claims or defenses whatsoever of the Borrower against the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or
any such transferee. The Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall not be liable for any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection
with any Letter of Credit. Any action taken or omitted by the Issuing Bank under or in connection with each Letter of Credit and the related drafts and documents shall be binding upon the Borrower and shall not result in any liability on the part of
the Issuing Bank. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Subsection 3.1.4, the Borrower shall not have any obligations to indemnify the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent or any Lender in respect of any liability resulting
from any such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. 
 3.1.5 Reliance by Issuing Bank. The Issuing Bank shall
be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, any Letter of Credit, draft, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other
document believed by it to be genuine and correct and believed by it to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person(s) and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by the Issuing Bank
and the Administrative Agent. 
 3.1.6 Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the
Lenders a fee per annum equal to the product of (a) the Applicable Margin for RC Loans bearing interest at a rate based on Adjusted LIBOR multiplied by (b) the face amount of each outstanding Letter of Credit (to the extent such face
amount is undrawn) (the “Letter of Credit Fees”). In addition, the Borrower shall pay to the Issuing Bank, for its own account, a fronting fee equal to 0.125% per annum of the face amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit
(to the extent such face amount is undrawn) (a “Fronting Fee”). All Letter of Credit Fees shall be payable quarterly in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date based on the number of days that a Letter of Credit is outstanding during
such quarter (calculated on the basis of a 360-day year). All Fronting Fees shall be payable at the time of issuance and any extension. The Borrower shall also pay to the Issuing Bank all of the Issuing Bank’s standard fees and charges for the
opening, amendment, modification, presentation or cancellation of a Letter of Credit and otherwise in respect of a Letter of Credit and shall execute all of the Issuing Bank’s standard agreements in connection with the issuance of the Letter of
Credit. The provisions of Section 2.8.6 (Default Rate) shall apply under the circumstances referred to therein. 
 3.1.7
Participation by Lenders. 
 (a) Effective immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit and without further action
on the part of the Issuing Bank, the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have granted to each Lender, and each Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably purchased and received from the Issuing Bank, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest
and participation in such Letter of Credit to the extent of each Lender’s percentage of the RC Commitment. Further, each Lender acknowledges and agrees that it shall be absolutely liable, to the extent of its percentage of the RC Commitment, to
fund on demand or reimburse the Issuing Bank on demand for the amount of each draft paid by the Issuing Bank under each Letter of Credit to the extent that such amount is not immediately reimbursed by the Borrower. 

  
 -58- 

 (b) In furtherance of the provisions of the preceding paragraph (a), the Issuing Bank shall
notify the Administrative Agent promptly upon receipt of notice of an intended draw under a Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent shall give written, telecopied or telegraphic notice to each of the other Lenders of its pro rata share of such
draw and the scheduled date thereof. After receipt of such notice, and whether or not an Event of Default or Default then exists and whether or not there shall then be any Available RC Commitment, each Lender shall make available to the
Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such draw in immediately available funds (in Dollars) to the Administrative Agent no later than 12:00 noon (New York, NY time) on the date specified in the Administrative Agent’s notice. The
failure of the Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent to give timely notice pursuant to this Subsection 3.1.7 shall not affect the right of the Issuing Bank to reimbursement from the Lenders. Any amount paid by the Issuing Bank and Lenders
pursuant to a draw made under a Letter of Credit shall constitute an RC Loan and shall be repaid pursuant to the provisions respecting RC Loans, provided that if an Event of Default or Default exists at the time of a draw, the Borrower shall
immediately reimburse the amount of such draw to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders. 
 3.1.8 Standard of
Conduct. The Issuing Bank shall be entitled to administer each Letter of Credit in the ordinary course of business and in accordance with its usual practices, modified from time to time as it deems appropriate under the circumstances,
and shall be entitled to use its discretion in taking or refraining from taking any action in connection herewith as if it were the sole party involved. Any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Issuing Bank under or in connection with any
Letter of Credit shall not create for the Issuing Bank any resulting liability to any other Lender. 
 3.1.9 Cash Collateral
Account. In the event that (a) the excess of (i) the amount of the RC Commitment over (ii) the aggregate principal amount of RC Loans and Swing Loans then outstanding is less than (b) the amount of any LC
Obligations at any time for any reason (whether because the RC Commitment has been reduced or terminated or otherwise), the Borrower shall forthwith pay to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the excess of the amount described in clause
(b) above over the amount described in clause (a) above. Such amount shall be applied first, against any Unreimbursed Drawings and second, against the unpaid principal amount of any Loans then outstanding, and the remainder shall be
maintained by the Administrative Agent in an interest bearing cash collateral account in the name of and for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to secure the repayment of Borrower’s obligation to reimburse the Lenders for
drafts drawn or that may be drawn under outstanding Letters of Credit until the earlier of (1) such time as all outstanding Letters of Credit have expired or been cancelled and (2) the excess of the amount described in clause
(b) above over the amount described in clause (a) above no longer exists. 
 3.1.10 Obligations Secured. The
obligations of the Borrower to the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in respect of Letters of Credit shall be guaranteed pursuant to the Loan Documents and shall be secured by the Collateral. 

  
 -59- 

 3.2 RESIGNATION OF ISSUING BANK.  

The Issuing Bank may resign at any time by giving 30 days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower, so long
as the Issuing Bank uses commercially reasonable efforts to have a new Issuing Bank designated prior to the expiration of such notice period and such new Issuing Bank agrees to assume the responsibilities of the Issuing Bank upon such expiration.
After the resignation of the Issuing Bank hereunder, the retiring issuing bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect to
Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such resignation, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit or to extend, renew or increase any existing Letter of Credit.

 ARTICLE 5 

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 

In order to induce the Issuing Bank and the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to make the Loans and other extensions of credit
contemplated by this Agreement, the Borrower hereby makes the following representations and warranties (which are unaffected by any investigation of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender): 

5.1 STATUS. 

5.1.1 Organization and Qualification. Each of Parent, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries is a duly organized and validly existing
corporation, partnership or limited liability company, as applicable, under the Laws of the respective jurisdictions indicated on Schedule 5.1.1 and each is in good standing under the Laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or formation, as
the case may be. Each such Person has perpetual existence and has the corporate, partnership or limited liability company, as applicable, power and authority to own its property and assets and to transact the business in which it is engaged or
presently proposes to engage. None of such Persons has failed to qualify to do business in any state or jurisdiction where the failure to so qualify could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change. As of the Closing Date, such
Persons are qualified to do business as a foreign corporation, partnership, or limited liability company, as applicable, in the states in the United States, if applicable, listed on Schedule 5.1.1. 

5.1.2 Capitalization. All of the issued and outstanding shares of Capital Stock of the Borrower are owned by Parent. The Borrower
does not have any Subsidiaries and does not presently operate all or any portion of its business through any other Persons, other than as disclosed on Schedule 5.1.2. Schedule 5.1.2 also correctly lists as to the Borrower, each of its
Subsidiaries and (other than with respect to clause (c) below) Parent on the Closing Date: 
 (a) its name; 

(b) the classes of Capital Stock issued by Parent, the Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries and the principal characteristics of each such
class; and

interests of each class (and certificate numbers by which such shares or other equity interests are designated, if applicable) owned by each of such holders. 

All the outstanding shares of Capital Stock of the Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries are validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable,
and all such shares and other equity interests indicated on Schedule 5.1.2 as owned by the Borrower or the Persons indicated on Schedule 5.1.2 are so owned beneficially and of record by such Person, free and clear of any Lien, except
for Liens created pursuant to the Loan Documents. Schedule 5.1.2 also correctly lists as to the Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries any options, warrants or other securities issued by the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower and the
identity of each holder of any such option, warrant or other security. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.1.2, there are no preemptive rights, offers, options, rights, agreements or commitments of any kind (contingent or otherwise) relating to
the issuance, conversion, registration, voting, sale or transfer of any equity interests or other securities of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (including the Capital Stock of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries) or obligating the
Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any other Person to purchase or redeem any such equity interests or other securities pursuant to the Organizational Documents or any agreement or other instrument to which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries
is a party or by which any of them may be bound.

held by or on behalf of each of Parent, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as of the date of this Agreement and the approximate value thereof. 

5.2 POWER AND AUTHORITY; ENFORCEABILITY. 

Each Loan Party has the corporate, partnership or other similar power to execute, deliver and carry out the terms and provisions of the Loan
Documents to which it is a party, and each such Person has taken all necessary corporate, partnership or other similar action (including any consent of stockholders or partners required by Law or by their respective Organizational Documents) to
authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents to which it is a party. The Loan Documents, when executed and delivered by each Loan Party which is a party thereto, constitute or will constitute the authorized, valid and
legally binding obligations of such Person enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable Debtor Relief Laws and by general principles of equity. 

5.3 NO VIOLATION OF AGREEMENTS; ABSENCE OF CONFLICTS. 

The execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents and compliance with
the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents, will not: 
 (a) require any consent or approval, governmental or otherwise, not already
obtained; 
 (b) violate any Law or judgment respecting Parent, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries; 

(c) conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, the Organizational Documents of any Loan Party or Subsidiary thereof,
or under any indenture, agreement, license or other instrument to which a Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which any of them or their respective properties may be bound; or 

(d) result in, or require the creation or imposition of, any Lien upon or with respect to any property now owned or hereafter acquired by a
Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries. 
 5.4 RECORDING, ENFORCEABILITY AND CONSENT. 

Assuming the due recording of the UCC-1 financing statements and the Intellectual Property Collateral Agreements delivered in connection

instruments, documents, certificates and investment property necessary to perfect the security interests granted pursuant to the Loan Documents, to the extent such security interests may be perfected by delivery. Upon the filing of such UCC-1
financing statements in the offices specified thereon and the recordation of the Intellectual Property Collateral Agreements in the United States Copyright Office, no further action, including, without limitation, any filing or recording of any
document or the obtaining of any consent, is necessary in order to establish, perfect and maintain the Administrative Agent’s first priority security interests (subject to Permitted Perfection Limitations) in the equity of the Borrower, the
U.S. Subsidiaries of the Borrower, the Ventures owned by GB Ventures or QIG and sixty six percent (66%) of the First-Tier Foreign Subsidiaries of the Borrower or Subsidiary Guarantors, and, subject to the limitations set forth in the last
sentence of Section 2 of the Security Agreement in the personal property (including fixtures and Intellectual Property) of each Loan Party other than Excluded Assets (for the benefit of the Secured Parties), except for the periodic filing of
continuation statements with respect to such UCC-1 financing statements. Upon the sale or other disposition by GB Ventures or QIG of any Capital Stock in any Venture to any Person, the Administrative Agent’s security interest in such Capital
Stock will be deemed to be automatically released so long as any proceeds or such sale or other disposition are applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

tribunal which could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change or which allege the invalidity of or dispute any terms of the Loan Documents and, to the knowledge of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, there is no basis for any of
the foregoing. Schedule 5.7 lists all litigation as of the Closing Date in which the amount in controversy exceeds $2,500,000 or which could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change.

7.3 ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS RESPECTING CALCULATION OF FINANCIAL COVENANTS. 

Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the following provisions shall apply.

 (i) approve the request of the
Borrower to change the basis for calculating the financial covenants from Closing Date GAAP to Closing Date GAAP as modified to incorporate the change or changes in GAAP requested by the Borrower, after which time, Closing Date GAAP shall be deemed
to be Closing Date GAAP as so adjusted (“Adjusted GAAP”); and 
 (ii) in connection with any such change to Adjusted
GAAP, if the Majority Lenders deem it to be appropriate, may adjust one or more of the financial covenants set forth in this Article 7 (and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the set points for determining Applicable Margin,
Commitment Fee or any other amount derived from the ratios referred to in the financial covenants) or the method of calculating such financial covenants for all purposes (including, without limitation, for purposes of determining Applicable Margin)
in such manner as is necessary or desirable to carry out the initial intent of the parties with respect to such covenants (and pricing, as applicable) as originally drafted. 

(c) At any time that GAAP changes, the Borrower may initiate a request pursuant to the preceding paragraph (b), it being understood that the
right to make such a request is not a one-time right. If Closing Date GAAP has already been adjusted to be Adjusted GAAP at the time of any such request and if the Majority Lenders agree to such further adjustments, then Adjusted GAAP shall

is not the same as GAAP, the Borrower shall deliver, together with the Officer’s Compliance Certificate pursuant to Subsection 6.1.3 (Delivery of Officer’s Compliance Certificates), a reconciliation of each of the component figures used in
determining compliance with the financial covenants (based on Closing Date GAAP or Adjusted GAAP, as applicable) and the corresponding amounts shown on the financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 6.1 (Financial Data and Reporting

statements delivered pursuant to Section 6.1.1 (Delivery of Quarterly Financial Statements) or Section 6.1.2 (Delivery of Annual Financial Statements; Accountants’ Certification), as applicable, for such quarters and the delivery of
an Officer’s Compliance Certificate pursuant to Subsection 6.1.3 (Delivery of Officer’s Compliance Certificates) is less than 2.75 to 1.00, the Borrower may make an election (the date of any such election being a “Reset Election
Date”) by delivering a notice to the Administrative Agent certifying that the conditions to the election have been satisfied and directing the Administrative Agent to reset the amount referenced in clause (c) of the definition of
Specified Restricted Use Conditions to be reset at $300,000,000 and the amount permitted for each of the Specified Restricted Uses shall be reset to the amount set forth in this Agreement therefor on the Closing Date. On each Reset Election Date,
the amount referenced in clause (c) of the definition of Specified Restricted Use Conditions and in each of the provisions referenced in the definition of Specified Restricted Uses shall be so reset to the full amount available as of the
Closing Date, enabling the Borrower to use such provisions after such Reset Election Date as if no Restricted Payments or Investments had been made in reliance on such provisions prior to such Reset Election Date. It is understood and agreed that,
as of the Closing Date, none of the $300,000,000 basket amount in the definition of “Specified Restricted Use Conditions” shall be deemed to have been used solely as a result of the implementation of the Reset Provision under the Existing
Credit Agreement or as a result of any amount expended on any Specified Restricted Use that was reset pursuant to such implementation.

 AGENCY 
 10.1
APPOINTMENT AND AUTHORITY. 
 Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints M&T to act on its behalf
as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or
thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, and neither the Borrower nor any other Loan
Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the
Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect
only an administrative relationship between contracting parties. 
 Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Lenders and the
Issuing Bank hereby authorize the Administrative Agent (in its sole discretion): 
 (a) in connection with the sale or other disposition of
any asset included in the Collateral or all of the Capital Stock of any Guarantor, to the extent undertaken in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, to release a Lien granted to it (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) on such asset or
Capital Stock and/or to release such Guarantor from its obligations hereunder; 
 (b) to determine that the cost to the Borrower is
disproportionate to the benefit to be realized by the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the other Secured Parties by perfecting a Lien in a given asset or group of assets included in the Collateral and that the Borrower should not be required to
perfect such Lien in favor of the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties); 
 (c) to appoint subagents to be the
holder of record of a Lien to be granted to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) or to hold on behalf of the Administrative Agent the Collateral or instruments relating thereto; 

  
 -104- 

 (d) to enter into and perform its obligations under the other Loan Documents; and 

(e) to execute and deliver the agreements contemplated by Section 11.5 (Amendments, Waivers and Consents). 

In addition to any other rights and remedies hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or applicable law, upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, each of the Secured Parties hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on behalf of the Secured Parties and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms
hereof and the other Loan Documents together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto and exercise any other rights and remedies under applicable law, in the name of the Secured Parties or otherwise, including sell, assign,
lease, license (on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis) or otherwise dispose of the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of the Administrative Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit
or for future delivery, at such time or times and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as the Administrative Agent may deem commercially reasonable and to credit bid any or all of the Secured Obligations on behalf of the Secured Parties
in connection with any sale or other disposition of any or all assets or equity of any or all Loan Parties. 
 10.2 RIGHTS AS A
LENDER. 
 The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender
as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the
Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for, and
generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders. 

10.3 EXCULPATORY PROVISIONS. 

The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and
its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent 
 (a)
shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, 

(b) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers
expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for
herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary
to any Loan Document or applicable Law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a
Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law and shall be entitled to confirmation by the Lenders of their indemnification of the Administrative Agent for any such actions;, and 

  
 -105- 

 (c) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any
duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates
in any capacity. 
 The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the
request of the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 11.5
(Amendments, Waivers and Consents) and 9.2 (Acceleration; Remedies) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Event of Default unless and
until notice describing such Event of Default is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, a Lender or the Issuing Bank which notice states that it is a “Notice of Default” or a “Notice of an Event of Default.” 

The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or
representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the
performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any
other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document including any Liens provided for herein or therein, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article 4 (Conditions to Fundings and Issuances of Letters of Credit)
or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent. 
 10.4
RELIANCE BY ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. 
 The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability
for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have
been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any
liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance, extension, renewal or increase of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender
or the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or the Issuing Bank unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or the Issuing Bank prior to
the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for
any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and
exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative
Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be
responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non appealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful
misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents. 
 10.6 RESIGNATION OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. 

The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any
such notice of resignation, the Majority Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor, which shall be a Lender, or an Affiliate of a Lender. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Majority
Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, appoint a
successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above, provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation
shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any

all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan
Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this paragraph). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the
Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article 10 and Section 11.14 (Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver) shall continue in
effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as
Administrative Agent.

Each Lender and the Issuing Bank acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender
or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and the Issuing Bank also acknowledges that it will,
independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in
taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the
Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or LC Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand
on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent constituting Secured Obligations allowed in such judicial proceeding; and 

  
 -108- 

 (b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such
claims and to distribute the same; 
 and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such

Issuing Bank, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent
hereunder or under any other Loan Document.

 10.11 NO RELIANCE ON ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S CUSTOMER IDENTIFICATION PROGRAM.
EACH LENDER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT NEITHER SUCH LENDER, NOR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES, PARTICIPANTS OR ASSIGNEES, MAY RELY ON THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT TO CARRY OUT SUCH LENDER’S, AFFILIATE’S, PARTICIPANT’S OR
ASSIGNEE’S CUSTOMER IDENTIFICATION PROGRAM, OR OTHER OBLIGATIONS REQUIRED OR IMPOSED UNDER OR PURSUANT TO THE USA PATRIOT ACT OR THE REGULATIONS THEREUNDER, INCLUDING THE REGULATIONS CONTAINED IN 31 CFR 103.121 (AS HEREAFTER AMENDED OR

(Electronic Communications). In the event of a discrepancy between any telephonic and any written notice, the written notice shall control. Any Lender giving any notice to the Borrower shall send simultaneously a copy of such notice to the

 -111- 

 11.1.2 Electronic Communications. Notices and other communications to the Lenders
and the Issuing Bank hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent, provided that the foregoing shall not
apply to notices to any Lender or Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.12 (Mechanics of Payments; Lender Payments) or Subsection 3.1.7 (Participation by Lenders). If such Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, has notified the Administrative
Agent that is incapable of receiving notices under such Sections by electronic communication, the Administrative Agent or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic
communications pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. 

Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (a) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed
received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement), provided that if such
notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient, and (b) notices
or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (a) of notification that such notice or

 11.1.3 Change of Address, Etc.
Any party hereto may change its address or telecopier number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. 

11.1.4 Platform.

to the Issuing Bank and the other Lenders by posting the Communications on Debt Domain, Intralinks, Syndtrak or a substantially similar electronic transmission system (the “Platform”). 

(b) The Platform is provided “as is” and “as available.” The Agent Parties (as defined below) do not warrant the adequacy
of the Platform and expressly disclaim liability for errors or omissions in the Communications. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including, without limitation, any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose,
non-infringement of third-party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by any Agent Party in connection with the Communications or the Platform. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties
(collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to the Borrower or the other Loan Parties, any Lender or any other Person or entity for damages of any kind, including, without limitation,
direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the Borrower’s, any Loan Party’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of communications
through the Platform. “Communications” means, collectively, any notice, demand, communication, information, document or other material that the Borrower or any Loan Party provides to the Administrative Agent pursuant to any
Loan Document or the transactions contemplated therein which is distributed to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank by means of electronic communications pursuant to this Section, including through the Platform. 

  
 -112- 

 11.2 SURVIVAL OF REPRESENTATIONS. 

All representations and warranties contained in the Loan Documents shall survive the making of the Loans and the issuance of the Letters of
Credit and shall not be waived by the execution and delivery of this Agreement or any investigation by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Lenders. 

11.3 NO IMPLIED WAIVERS. 

No failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege under
the Loan Documents and no course of dealing between the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, on the other hand, shall operate as a waiver of any such right, power or
privilege. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege under the Loan Documents precludes any other or further exercise of any such right, power or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and
remedies expressly provided in the Loan Documents are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender would otherwise have. No notice to or demand on the Borrower in any case
shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or shall constitute a waiver of the right of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender to take any other or further action in any
circumstances without notice or demand. Any waiver that is given shall be effective only if in writing and only for the limited purposes expressly stated in the applicable waiver. 

11.4 SEVERABILITY. 

Every provision of the Loan Documents is intended to be severable. If any term or provision of the Loan Documents shall be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable for any reason, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not be affected or impaired thereby. Any invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any term or provision of the Loan Documents in any
jurisdiction shall not affect the validity, legality or enforceability of any such term or provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 11.5
AMENDMENTS, WAIVERS AND CONSENTS. 
 11.5.1 In General. This Agreement and the other Loan
Documents may not be amended or modified except by a written instrument describing such amendment or modification executed by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Lenders as provided in this Subsection 11.5.1. With the
written consent of the Majority Lenders, the Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, enter into agreements that modify, amend or supplement this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and with such consent, the Administrative Agent may
waive compliance with any provision of any of the Loan Documents, all as referred to in this Subsection 11.5.1. However, no such modification, amendment, supplement or waiver shall: 

  
 -113- 

 (a) increase the maximum amount of the RC Commitment or the Term Commitment of any Lender
without such Lender’s written consent; 
 (b) extend the Maturity Date or any scheduled amortization or date for payment of principal
or interest on the Loans of any Lender without such Lender’s written consent (it being understood that the extension contemplated by Subsection 2.18.1 (Extension of RC Maturity Date) this Agreement shall not be deemed an amendment subject to
this clause (b)), 
 (c) amend the interest rate provisions hereof to decrease the rate of interest or fees payable to any Lender without
such Lender’s written consent, provided that the written consent of the Majority Lenders, rather than the consent of all Lenders, shall be sufficient to waive imposition of the Default Rate pursuant to Subsection 2.8.6 (Default Rate),

 (d) reduce the principal amount of Loans due to any Lender without such Lender’s written consent; 

(e) reduce the amount of the fees payable under Subsection 2.7.1 (Commitment Fees), Subsection 3.1.6 (Fees) or other fees, payable to any
Lender without such Lender’s written consent, 
 (f) amend, modify or waive the provisions of this Section 11.5 without each
Lender’s written consent, 
 (g) amend or modify the definition of “Majority Lenders” without each Lender’s written
consent, provided, however, if this Agreement is amended to provide for additional tranches of revolver or term Indebtedness hereunder, the definition of “Majority Lenders” may be amended to accommodate such new tranches in a manner
similar to the existing Loans and Commitments with the consent of the Lenders constituting Majority Lenders (determined without giving effect to such amendment), 

(h) release all or substantially all of the guaranties or all or substantially all of the Collateral that secures the Obligations without each
Lender’s written consent; provided however, the Administrative Agent may without the consent of any Person release any guarantor or any Collateral granted pursuant to the Loan Documents and file UCC-3 termination statements or statements
of amendment or take other appropriate action (i) as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct, (ii) in connection with a disposition (other than to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries) permitted under Subsection 8.7.2 (Sales and
Other Dispositions) or as otherwise provided under the Loan Documents, or (iii) if, in accordance with this Agreement, cash proceeds from any sale or transfer of the Collateral are used to prepay outstanding sums due under this Agreement or are
reinvested in the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, or 
 (i) waive an Event of Default under Subsection 9.1.1 (Failure to Pay Principal or
Reimbursement Obligations) or 9.1.2 (Failure to Pay Interest, Fees, Etc.) (other than in respect of the imposition of the Default Rate) after such Event of Default shall have occurred without each Lender’s written consent (but the Majority
Lenders may direct the Administrative Agent to forbear under such circumstances). 

  
 -114- 

 11.5.2 Other Amendments. No modification, amendment, supplement or waiver of any
provision of this Agreement shall be made that would reduce or extend the date of payment for reimbursement obligations in respect of Letters of Credit without the consent of the Issuing Bank and all Lenders having a participation interest therein.

 11.5.3 Exception. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.5 or anything to the contrary
contained in this Agreement, any Lender that has requested that it not receive material, non-public information concerning the Borrower, and that is therefore unable or unwilling to vote with respect to an issue arising under this Agreement, will
agree to vote, and will be deemed to have voted, its Commitment under this Agreement pro rata in accordance with the percentage of Commitments voted in favor of, and the percentage of Commitments voted against, any such issue under this Agreement.

 11.6 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. 

11.6.1 Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Loan Parties may not assign or otherwise transfer any of their rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent
and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (a) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the provisions of Subsection 11.6.2 (Assignments by Lenders), (b) by way of
participation in accordance with the provisions of Subsection 11.6.4 (Participations) or (c) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of Subsection 11.6.6 (Certain Pledges) (and any other attempted
assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted
hereby, Participants to the extent provided in Subsection 11.6.4 (Participations) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or
claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 
 11.6.2 Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more
Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that (in each case with respect to any Facility) any such
assignment shall be subject to the following conditions: 
 (a) Minimum Amounts. 

(i) In the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to
it (in each case with respect to any Facility) or contemporaneous assignments to related Approved Funds that equal at least the amount specified in clause (a)(ii) below or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an
Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and 

  
 -115- 

 (ii) in any case not described in the preceding paragraph (i), the aggregate amount of the
Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as
of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than Five Million
Dollars ($5,000,000) with respect to an assignment of an interest in any Facility, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consent (each such
consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). 
 (b) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an
assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loan or Commitment assigned, except that this paragraph (b) shall not prohibit any Lender from assigning all
or a portion of its rights and obligations among separate Facilities on a non-pro rata basis. 
 (c) Required Consents. No
consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by paragraph (a) of this Subsection 11.6.2 and, in addition: 

(i) the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) a Default or Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (y) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such
assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 5 Business Days after having received notice thereof; and 

(ii) the consent of the Administrative Agent (and with respect to the RC Facility only, the Issuing Bank) (each such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments in respect of a Loan or Commitment if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender. 

(d) Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and
Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 and the assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. 

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

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

  
 -116- 

 (g) Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and
obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the
Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with
the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to
(x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank, each Swingline Lender and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire
(and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and
obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of
this Agreement until such compliance occurs. 
 Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Subsection 11.6.3
(Register), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the
rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of
an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Subsection 2.8.5 (Breakage),
Section 2.9 (Increased Costs; Unavailability) and Section 11.14 (Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver) with respect to the facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided, that except to the
extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. Any assignment
or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance
with Subsection 11.6.4 (Participations). 
 11.6.3 Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an
agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in the United States a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and
principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may
treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower
and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 

  
 -117- 

 11.6.4 Participations. 

(a) Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, sell participations to any
Person (other than a natural person or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement
(including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other
parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Bank shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights
and obligations under this Agreement. Any Lender may furnish any information concerning the Borrower in its possession from time to time to prospective Participants, provided that such Lender shall require any such prospective Participants to
agree in writing to maintain the confidentiality of such information as provided in Section 11.13 (Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality; Advertisement). 

(b) Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole
right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant,
agree to any amendment, modification or waiver with respect to the matters specifically referred to in clauses (a), (b), (c) and (g) of Section 11.5 (Amendments, Waivers and Consents). Subject to clause (b) of this Subsection
11.6.4 (Participations), the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Subsection 2.8.5 (Breakage) and Section 2.9 (Increased Costs; Unavailability) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its
interest by assignment pursuant to Subsection 11.6.2 (Assignments by Lenders). To the extent permitted by Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 11.11 (Right of Setoff) as though it were a Lender,
provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Subsection 2.11.5 (Sharing of Payments by Lenders) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower,
maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant
Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any
commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in
registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the
Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no
responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. 

  
 -118- 

 11.6.5 Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to
receive any greater payment under Section 2.9 (Increased Costs; Unavailability) than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to
such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.13 (Taxes) unless the Borrower is notified of the
participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Subsection 2.13.5 (Status of Lenders) as though it were a Lender. 

11.6.6 Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under
this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder
or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 
 11.7 CALCULATIONS AND FINANCIAL DATA. 

Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, calculations under this Agreement shall be made and financial data and terms referred to in
this Agreement shall be prepared and interpreted both as to classification of items and as to amounts in accordance with GAAP. 
 11.8
DESCRIPTIVE HEADINGS. 
 The descriptive headings of the several sections of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only
and shall not affect the meaning or construction of any of the provisions of this Agreement. 
 11.9 GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION;
ETC. 
 11.9.1 Governing Law. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any claims, controversy, dispute or cause
of action (whether in contract or tort or otherwise) based upon, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except, as to any other Loan Document, as expressly set forth therein) and the transactions contemplated hereby
and thereby shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Law of the State of New York (excluding the Laws applicable to conflicts or choice of law). 

11.9.2 Submission to Jurisdiction. The Borrower irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that it will not commence any action,
litigation or proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any Issuing Bank, or any Related Party of the foregoing in any way relating to
this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions relating hereto or thereto, in any forum other than the courts of the State of New York in Erie County and of the United States District Court of the Western District of New York, and any
appellate court from any thereof, and each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the jurisdiction of such courts and agrees that all claims in respect of any such action, litigation or proceeding may be heard and
determined in such New York state court or, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, in such federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action, litigation or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be
enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law. Nothing in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank may
otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against the Borrower or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction. 

  
 -119- 

 11.9.3 Waiver of Venue. The Borrower irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in
Subsection 11.9.2 (Submission to Jurisdiction). Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such
court. 
 11.9.4 Service of Process. Each party hereto irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for
notices in Section 11.1 (Notices; Effectiveness; Electronic Communication). Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable Law. 

11.10 MAXIMUM LAWFUL INTEREST RATE. 

If, at any time, the rate of interest, together with all amounts that constitute interest and that are reserved, charged or taken hereunder as
compensation for fees, services or expenses incidental to the making, negotiating or collecting of the Loans, shall be deemed by a court of law with competent jurisdiction, a governmental agency or a tribunal to exceed the maximum rate of interest
permitted to be charged by the Lenders to the Borrower under applicable Law, if such interest, fees and expenses are in excess of the maximum amount permitted by applicable Law, then, during such time as such rate of interest would be deemed
excessive, that portion of each sum paid attributable to that portion of such interest rate that exceeds the maximum rate of interest so permitted shall be deemed a voluntary prepayment of the unpaid principal amount due pursuant to this Agreement
and the Notes. As used in this Section 11.10, the term “applicable Law” shall mean the Law in effect as of the date hereof; provided, however, that in the event there is a change in the Law that results in a higher permissible
rate of interest, then this Agreement shall be governed by such new Law as of its effective date. 
 11.11 RIGHT OF SETOFF.

 If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, the Issuing Bank, and each of their respective Affiliates is
hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and
other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender, the Issuing Bank or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or any other Loan Party against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower or
any other Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or the Issuing Bank shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any
other Loan Document and although such obligations of the Borrower or any other Loan Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender or the Issuing Bank different from the branch or office holding such deposit or
obligated on such indebtedness; 

  
 -120- 

 
provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent
for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.15 (Defaulting Lenders) and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it
exercised such right of setoff. The rights of each Lender, the Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, the Issuing Bank or
their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender and the Issuing Bank agrees to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect
the validity of such setoff and application. ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO REQUIRE ANY LENDER TO EXERCISE ITS RIGHTS OR REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY OTHER COLLATERAL THAT SECURES THE LOANS, PRIOR TO EXERCISING ITS RIGHT TO SET-OFF WITH RESPECT TO SUCH
DEPOSITS, CREDITS OR OTHER PROPERTY OF THE BORROWER OR ANY GUARANTOR, ARE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVED. 
 11.12
COUNTERPARTS; INTEGRATION; EFFECTIVENESS; ELECTRONIC EXECUTION. 
 11.12.1 Counterparts; Integration;
Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.
This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate fee letters or other letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and
supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Article 4 (Conditions to Fundings and Issuance of Letters of Credit), this Agreement shall become effective
when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed
counterpart of this Agreement. 
 11.12.2 Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,”
“signed,” “signature,” or words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect,
validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable Law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and
National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state Laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. 

  
 -121- 

 11.13 TREATMENT OF CERTAIN INFORMATION; CONFIDENTIALITY; ADVERTISEMENT. 

11.13.1 Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Bank agrees to maintain the
confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other
advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory
authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar
legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any Interest Rate Protection Agreement with any Lender or any of its Affiliates or any action
or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any Interest Rate Protection Agreement with any Lender or any of its Affiliates or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing
provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective
counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations, (g) with the consent of the Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as
a result of a breach of this Section or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the Issuing Bank or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, any Lender may disclose Information, without notice to Borrower, to governmental regulatory authorities in connection with any regulatory examination of such Lender or in accordance with such Lender’s regulatory compliance policy.

 11.13.2 Information. For purposes of this Section 11.13, “Information” means all information
received from the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing
Bank on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, provided that, in the case of information received from the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries after the date hereof, such information is clearly
identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the
same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. 

11.13.3 Advertisement. The Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to publish the name of the Borrower and the amount
of the financing evidenced hereby in any “tombstone” or comparable advertisement which the Administrative Agent elects to publish. In addition, the Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may provide lending industry trade
organizations with information necessary and customary (including the amount and type of facilities, the rates and counsel’s name) for inclusion in league table measurements after the Closing Date. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, the Borrower acknowledges and agrees to the disclosure by the Administrative Agent after the Closing Date of information relating to the Loans to Gold Sheets, and other similar bank trade publications, with such information to
consist of deal terms consisting of (i) the Borrower’s name, (ii) principal loan amounts, (iii) interest rate, (iv) term length and (v) commitment fees and other fees to the Lenders in the syndicate, the identity of
their attorneys and other information customarily found in such publications. 

  
 -122- 

 11.14 EXPENSES; INDEMNITY; DAMAGE WAIVER. 

11.14.1 Costs and Expenses. The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative
Agent and its Affiliates including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent (and fees and time charges and disbursements for attorneys who may be employees of the Administrative Agent), in connection
with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any documents contemplated thereby or any amendments,
modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Issuing Bank in connection with the
issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder, and (iii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank including the fees, charges and
disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank (and fees and time charges for attorneys who may be employees of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank), in connection with the enforcement
or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including, all such out-of-pocket
expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit. 
 11.14.2
Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), each Lender and the Issuing Bank, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called
an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee and fees and
time charges and disbursements for attorneys who may be employees of any Indemnitee), incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by the Borrower or any other Loan Party arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of
(a) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (b) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the
documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (c) any actual or alleged presence or Release of Hazardous Substances on or from any property owned or operated by the Borrower
or any of its Subsidiaries, or any environmental liability related in any way to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (d) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether
based on contract, tort or any other theory whether brought by a third party or by the Borrower or any other Loan Party and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee,
be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by the Borrower or any other Loan Party against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document if the
Borrower or such Loan Party has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. 

  
 -123- 

 11.14.3 Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any
amount required under Subsections 11.14.1 (Costs and Expenses) and 11.14.2 (Indemnification by the Borrower) to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the Issuing Bank or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each
Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or its Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity
payment is sought based on each Lender’s share of the Total Facility at such time) of such unpaid amount (including any such unpaid amount in respect of a claim asserted by such Lender); provided, that with respect to such unpaid amounts
owed to any Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender solely in its capacity as such, only the RC Lenders shall be required to pay such unpaid amounts, such payment to be made severally among them based on such RC Lenders’ Applicable Percentage
(determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) provided, further, that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be,
was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or the Issuing Bank in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or
Issuing Bank in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under this Subsection 11.14.3 are subject to the provisions of Section 2.5 (Lenders’ Obligations Several). 

11.14.4 Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, the Borrower shall not
assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this
Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in Subsection 11.14.2
(Indemnification by the Borrower) shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems
in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. 
 11.14.5
Payments. All amounts due under this Section 11.14 shall be payable promptly after demand therefor. 

  
 -124- 

 11.14.6 Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section shall
survive the termination of the Loan Documents and payment of the obligations hereunder. 
 11.15 CERTIFICATION OF AMOUNTS.

 The certification by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or a Lender of the amount of liabilities, losses, costs, expenses, claims
and/or charges pursuant to Section 11.14 (Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver) shall be conclusive if such amounts have been computed or reached in a reasonable manner. 

11.16 TERMINATION OF SECURITY; PARTIAL RELEASE OF SECURITY. 

11.16.1 Termination of Security. At such time as no Secured Party has any commitment to make financial accommodations to
the Borrower pursuant to the terms hereof and all the Secured Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations) have been paid and performed in full, then the security provided for in the Loan Documents shall terminate,
provided, however, that all indemnities of the Borrower and each other Loan Party contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall survive and remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the termination of such
security, provided, further, that all such security interests shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time all or part of any payment of any Secured Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be returned
by any Secured Party or any other Person upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or any other Loan Party or otherwise. 

11.16.2 Partial Release of Security. Effective upon the closing of a disposition of any Collateral to any Person (other
than the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries) and the application of proceeds thereof in conformity with the provisions of this Agreement, the Lien of the Administrative Agent on the assets subject to such disposition shall terminate and effective
upon the transfer of the Capital Stock of Greatbatch LLC to Precimed in accordance with a Permitted Maquiladora Restructuring, the Lien of the Administrative Agent on such Capital Stock and on the assets of Greatbatch, LLC shall terminate and, in
each case, upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of a certification to such effect from the Chief Financial Officer of the Borrower, the security interest granted under the Loan Documents in the Collateral so disposed of shall terminate and the
Administrative Agent shall deliver such releases as may be appropriate, provided, however, the security interest granted under the Loan Documents in all remaining Collateral shall remain in full force and effect. 

  
 -125- 

 11.17 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. 

EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY
LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO
(A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES
THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION. 

11.18 PATRIOT ACT NOTICE. 

To help fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal Law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify and
record information that identifies each Person who opens an account. For purposes of this Section 11.18, account shall be understood to include loan accounts.
