Agreement and used herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Credit Agreement. 

                      
          (the “Assignor”) and
                                (the “Assignee”) agree as
follows: 
  

	 	1.	The Assignor hereby irrevocably sells and assigns to the Assignee without recourse to the Assignor, and the Assignee hereby irrevocably purchases and assumes from the
Assignor without recourse to the Assignor, as of the Transfer Effective Date (as defined below), an interest (the “Assigned Interest”) as set forth in Schedule 1 in and to the Assignor’s rights and obligations under the Credit
Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect to those credit facilities provided for in the Credit Agreement as are set forth on Schedule 1 (individually, an “Assigned Facility”; collectively, the “Assigned
Facilities”), in a principal amount for each Assigned Facility as set forth on Schedule 1. 

  

	 	2.	 The Assignor (a) makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations
made in or in connection with the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of the Credit
Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto, other than that it is the legal and beneficial owner of the Assigned Interest and that it has not created any adverse claim upon the interest being
assigned by it hereunder and that such interest is free and clear of any such adverse claim; (b) makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries
or any other obligor or the performance or observance by the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any other obligor of any of their respective obligations under the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document
furnished pursuant hereto or thereto; and (c) attaches the Note(s), if any, held by it evidencing the Assigned Facilities [and requests that the Administrative Agent exchange such Note(s) for a new Note or Notes payable to the Assignee and (if
the Assignor has retained any interest in the Assigned Facilities) a new Note or Notes payable to the Assignor in the respective amounts 

 

 A-1 

	 	 
which reflect the assignment being made hereby (and after giving effect to any other assignments which have become effective on the Transfer Effective
Date)1]. 

 

	 	3.	The Assignee (a) represents and warrants that it is legally authorized to enter into this Assignment and Acceptance; (b) confirms that it has received a copy
of the Credit Agreement, together with copies of the financial statements referred to in subsection 6.1 thereof and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this
Assignment and Acceptance; (c) agrees that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Assignor, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time,
continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto; (d) appoints and authorizes the
Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto as are delegated
to the Administrative Agent by the terms thereof, together with such powers as are incidental thereto; (e) hereby affirms the acknowledgements and representations of such Assignee as a Lender contained in subsection 9.6 of the Credit Agreement;
