 Exhibit 10.18 
 AFFINIA GROUP HOLDINGS INC. 
 2005 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN 
  

	1.	Purpose of the Plan 

 The purpose of the Plan (as

motivate such employees, directors, consultants or companies to exert their best efforts on behalf of the Company and its Affiliates by providing incentives through the granting of Awards (as defined below). The Company expects that it will benefit
from the added interest which such key employees, directors, consultants or companies will have in the welfare of the Company as a result of their proprietary interest in the Company’s success.

	3.	Shares Subject to the Plan 

 The total number of
Shares which may be issued under the Plan is 227,000. The Shares may consist, in whole or in part, of unissued Shares or treasury Shares. The issuance of Shares or the payment of cash upon the exercise of an Award shall reduce the total number of
Shares available under the Plan, as applicable. Shares which are (i) subject to Awards (or portion thereof) that terminate or lapse or (ii) delivered by the Participant or withheld by the Company to pay the minimum statutory withholding
rate in accordance with Section 4(d), in each case, may be granted again under the Plan. 
  

	4.	Administration 

 (a) The Plan shall be administered
by the Committee, which may delegate its duties and powers in whole or in part as it determines; provided, however, that the Board may, in its sole discretion, take any action designated to the Committee under this Plan as it may deem
necessary. 
 (b) The Committee shall have the full power and authority to make, and establish the terms and conditions of, any Award to any
person eligible to be a Participant, consistent with the provisions of the Plan and to waive any such terms and conditions at any time (including, without limitation, accelerating or waiving any vesting conditions or payment dates). Awards may, in
the discretion of the Committee, be made under the Plan in assumption of, or in substitution for, outstanding awards previously granted by the Company or its Affiliates or a company acquired by the Company or with which the Company combines. The
number of Shares underlying such substitute awards shall be counted against the aggregate number of Shares available for Awards under the Plan. 
  

 3 

 (c) The Committee is authorized to interpret the Plan, to establish, amend and rescind any rules and
regulations relating to the Plan, and to make any other determinations that it, in good faith, deems necessary or desirable for the administration of the Plan, and may delegate such authority, as it deems appropriate. The Committee may correct any
defect or supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan in the manner and to the extent the Committee deems necessary or desirable. Any decision of the Committee in the interpretation and administration of the Plan, as described
herein, shall lie within its sole and absolute good faith discretion and shall be final, conclusive and binding on all parties concerned (including, but not limited to, Participants and their beneficiaries or successors). 
 (d) The Committee shall require payment of any amount it may determine to be necessary to withhold for federal, state, local, or other taxes as a result
of the exercise, grant or vesting of an Award. Unless the Committee specifies otherwise, the Participant may elect to pay a portion or all of such withholding taxes by (i) delivery in Shares or (ii) having Shares withheld by the Company
with a Fair Market Value equal to the minimum statutory withholding rate from any Shares that would have otherwise been received by the Participant. 
  

	5.	Limitations 

 No Awards may be granted under the
Plan after the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date, but Awards theretofore granted may extend beyond that date. 
  

	6.	Options 

 Options granted under the Plan shall be,
as determined by the Committee, non-qualified stock options or ISOs for federal income tax purposes, as evidenced by the related Award Agreements, and shall be subject to the foregoing and the following terms and conditions and to such other terms
and conditions, not inconsistent therewith, as the Committee shall determine: 
 (a) Option Price. The Option Price shall be
determined by the Committee, but, with respect to ISOs, shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date an Option is granted. 
 (b) Exercisability. Options granted under the Plan shall be exercisable at such time and upon such terms and conditions as may be determined by the Committee, but in no event shall an Option be exercisable more
than ten years after the date it is granted. 
 (c) Exercise of Options. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or in an Award
Agreement, an Option may be exercised for all, or from time to time any part, of the Shares for which it is then exercisable. For purposes of this Section 6, the exercise date of an Option shall be the date a notice of exercise is received by
the Company, together with payment (or to the extent permitted by applicable law, provision for payment) of the full purchase price in accordance with this Section 6(c). The purchase price for the Shares as to which an Option is exercised shall
be paid to the Company as designated by the Committee, pursuant to one or more of the following methods: (i) in cash, or its equivalent (e.g., by check), (ii) in Shares having a Fair Market Value equal to the aggregate Option Price for the
Shares being purchased to the Company and satisfying such other requirements as may be imposed by the Committee; provided that such Shares have been held by the Participant for no less than six months (or such other period as 

  

 4 

 
established from time to time by the Committee or generally accepted accounting principles); (iii) partly in cash and partly in such Shares;
(iv) if there is a public market for the Shares at such time, subject to such rules as may be established by the Committee, through delivery of irrevocable instructions to a broker to sell the Shares otherwise deliverable upon the exercise of
the Option and to deliver promptly to the Company an amount equal to the aggregate Option Price for the shares being purchased or (v) such other method as approved by the Committee. No Participant shall have any rights to dividends or other
rights of a stockholder with respect to Shares subject to an Option until the Participant has given written notice of exercise of the Option, paid in full for such Shares and, if applicable, has satisfied any other conditions imposed by the
Committee pursuant to the Plan. 
 (d) ISOs. The Committee may grant Options under the Plan that are intended to be ISOs. Such ISOs
shall comply with the requirements of Section 422 of the Code. No ISO may be granted to any Participant who at the time of such grant is not an employee of the Company or of any of its Subsidiaries. In addition, no ISO may be granted to any
Participant who at the time of such grant owns more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or of any of its Subsidiaries, unless (i) the Option Price for such ISO is at least 110% of the Fair Market
Value of a Share on the date the ISO is granted and (ii) the date on which such ISO terminates is a date not later than the day preceding the fifth anniversary of the date on which the ISO is granted. Any Participant who disposes of Shares
acquired upon the exercise of an ISO either (I) within two years after the date of grant of such ISO or (II) within one year after the transfer of such Shares to the Participant, shall notify the Company of such disposition and of the
amount realized upon such disposition. All Options granted under the Plan are intended to be non-qualified stock options, unless the applicable Award Agreement expressly states that the Option is intended to be an ISO. If an Option is intended to be
an ISO, and if for any reason such Option (or portion thereof) shall not qualify as an ISO, then, to the extent of such nonqualification, such Option (or portion thereof) shall be regarded as a non-qualified stock option granted under the Plan;
provided that such Option (or portion thereof) otherwise complies with the Plan’s requirements relating to non-qualified stock options. In no event shall any member of the Committee, the Company or any of its Affiliates (or their
respective employees, officers or directors) have any liability to any Participant (or any other Person) due to the failure of an Option to qualify for any reason as an ISO. 
 (e) Attestation. Wherever in this Plan or any Award Agreement a Participant is permitted to pay the Option Price or taxes relating to the exercise
of an Option by delivering Shares, the Participant may, subject to procedures satisfactory to the Committee, satisfy such delivery requirement by presenting proof of beneficial ownership of such Shares, in which case the Company shall treat the
Option as exercised without further payment and shall withhold such number of Shares from the Shares acquired by the exercise of the Option. 
  

	7.	Stock Appreciation Rights 

 (a) Grants. The
Committee may grant (i) a Stock Appreciation Right independent of an Option or (ii) a Stock Appreciation Right in connection with an Option, or a portion thereof. A Stock Appreciation Right granted pursuant to clause (ii) of the
preceding sentence (A) may be granted at the time the related Option is granted or at any time prior to the exercise or cancellation of the 

  

 5 

 
related Option, (B) shall cover the same number of Shares covered by an Option (or such lesser number of Shares as the Committee may determine) and
(C) shall be subject to the same terms and conditions as such Option except for such additional limitations as are contemplated by this Section 7 (or such additional limitations as may be included in an Award agreement). 
 (b) Terms. The exercise price per Share of a Stock Appreciation Right shall be an amount determined by the Committee but in no event shall such
amount be less than the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date the Stock Appreciation Right is granted; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing in the case of a Stock Appreciation Right granted in conjunction with an Option, or a
portion thereof, the exercise price may not be less than the Option Price of the related Option. Each Stock Appreciation Right granted independent of an Option shall entitle a Participant upon exercise to an amount equal to (i) the excess of
(A) the Fair Market Value on the exercise date of one Share over (B) the exercise price per Share, times (ii) the number of Shares covered by the Stock Appreciation Right. Each Stock Appreciation Right granted in conjunction with an
Option, or a portion thereof, shall entitle a Participant to surrender to the Company the unexercised Option, or any portion thereof, and to receive from the Company in exchange therefor an amount equal to (i) the excess of (A) the Fair
Market Value on the exercise date of one Share over (B) the Option Price per Share, times (ii) the number of Shares covered by the Option, or portion thereof, which is surrendered. Payment shall be made in Shares or in cash, or partly in
Shares and partly in cash (any such Shares valued at such Fair Market Value), all as shall be determined by the Committee. Stock Appreciation Rights may be exercised from time to time upon actual receipt by the Company of written notice of exercise
stating the number of Shares with respect to which the Stock Appreciation Right is being exercised. The date a notice of exercise is received by the Company shall be the exercise date. No fractional Shares will be issued in payment for Stock
Appreciation Rights, but instead cash will be paid for a fraction or, if the Committee should so determine, the number of Shares will be rounded downward to the next whole Share. 
 (c) Limitations. The Committee may impose, in its discretion, such conditions upon the exercisability or transferability of Stock Appreciation
Rights as it may deem fit. 
  

	8.	Other Stock-Based Awards. 

 The Committee, in its
sole discretion, may grant Awards of Shares, Awards of restricted Shares, Awards of phantom stock units and other Awards that are valued in whole or in part by reference to, or are otherwise based on the Fair Market Value of, Shares (“Other
Stock-Based Awards”). Such Other Stock-Based Awards shall be in such form, and dependent on such conditions, as the Committee shall determine, including, without limitation, the right to receive one or more Shares (or the equivalent cash value
of such Shares) upon the completion of a specified period of service, the occurrence of an event and/or the attainment of performance objectives. Other Stock-Based Awards may be granted alone or in addition to any other Awards granted under the
Plan. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall determine: (a) the number of Shares to be awarded under (or otherwise related to) such Other Stock-Based Awards; (b) whether such Other Stock-Based Awards shall be settled in
cash, Shares or a combination of cash and Shares; and (c) all other terms and conditions of such Other Stock-Based Awards (including, without limitation, the vesting provisions thereof and provisions ensuring that all Shares so awarded and
issued shall be fully paid and non-assessable). 
  

 6 

	9.	Adjustments Upon Certain Events 

 Notwithstanding
any other provisions in the Plan to the contrary, the following provisions shall apply to all Awards granted under the Plan: 
 (a)
Generally. In the event of any change in the outstanding Shares after the Effective Date by reason of any Share dividend or split, reorganization, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, spin-off, combination or transaction or exchange of
Shares or other corporate exchange, or any distribution to shareholders of Shares other than regular cash dividends or any transaction similar to the foregoing, the Committee shall make such substitution or adjustment, if any, as it deems to be
equitable, as to (i) the number or kind of Shares or other securities issued or reserved for issuance pursuant to the Plan or pursuant to outstanding Awards, (ii) the Option Price or exercise price of any Stock Appreciation Right and/or
(iii) any other affected terms of such Awards. 
 (b) Change in Control. In the event of a Change in Control after the Effective
Date, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, provide for the (i) termination of an Award upon the consummation of the Change in Control, but only if such Award has vested and been paid out or the Participant has been permitted to exercise
the Option or Stock Appreciation Right in full for a period of not less than 30 days prior to the Change in Control, (ii) acceleration of all or any portion of an Award, (iii) payment of a cash amount in exchange for the cancellation of an
Award (to the extent permissible under Section 409A of the Code), which, in the case of Options and Stock Appreciation Rights, may equal the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to such Options or Stock Appreciation
Rights over the aggregate Option Price or grant price of such Option or Stock Appreciation Rights, and/or (iv) issuance of substitute Awards that will substantially preserve the otherwise applicable terms of any affected Awards previously
granted hereunder. 
  

	10.	No Right to Employment or Awards 

 The granting of
an Award under the Plan shall impose no obligation on the Company or any of its Affiliates to continue the Employment of a Participant and shall not lessen or affect the Company’s or its Affiliates’ rights to terminate the Employment of
such Participant. No Participant or other Person shall have any claim to be granted any Award, and there is no obligation for uniformity of treatment of Participants or holders or beneficiaries of Awards. The terms and conditions of Awards and the
Committee’s determinations and interpretations with respect thereto need not be the same with respect to each Participant (whether or not such Participants are similarly situated). 
  

	11.	Successors and Assigns 

 The Plan shall be binding
on all successors and assigns of the Company and a Participant, including without limitation, the estate of such Participant and the executor, administrator or trustee of such estate, or any receiver or trustee in bankruptcy or representative of the
Participant’s creditors. 
  

 7 

	12.	Nontransferability of Awards 

 Unless otherwise
determined by the Committee, an Award shall not be transferable or assignable by the Participant other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. An Award exercisable after the death of a Participant may be exercised by the legatees,
personal representatives or distributees of the Participant. 
  

	13.	Awards Subject to the Plan. 

 In the event of a
conflict between any term or provision contained in the Plan and a term or provision in any Award Agreement, the applicable terms and provisions of the Plan will govern and prevail. 
  

	14.	Severability. 

 If any provision of the Plan or any
Award is, becomes or is deemed to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction or as to any Person or Award, or would disqualify the Plan or any Award under any law deemed applicable by the Committee, such provision shall be construed
or deemed amended to conform to the applicable laws, or if it cannot be construed or deemed amended without, in the determination of the Committee, materially altering the intent of the Plan or the Award, such provision shall be stricken as to such
jurisdiction, Person or Award and the remainder of the Plan and any such Award shall remain in full force and effect. 
  

	15.	Amendments or Termination 

 (a) Amendments or
Termination of the Plan. The Committee may amend, alter or discontinue the Plan, but no amendment, alteration or discontinuation shall be made, without the written consent of a Participant, if such action would diminish any of the rights of the
Participant under any Award theretofore granted to such Participant under the Plan; provided, however, that the Committee may amend the Plan in such manner as it deems necessary to permit the granting of Awards meeting the requirements
of the Code or other applicable laws. 
 (b) Amendments to Awards. The Committee may waive any conditions or rights under, amend any
terms of, or alter, suspend, discontinue, cancel or terminate, any Award theretofore granted, prospectively or retroactively; provided that no waiver, amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuation, cancellation or termination shall
impair the rights of any Participant or any holder or beneficiary of any Award theretofore granted without the consent of the affected Participant, holder or beneficiary. 
  

	16.	Other Benefit Plans 

 All Awards shall constitute a
special incentive payment to the Participant and shall not be taken into account in computing the amount of salary or compensation of the Participant for the purpose of determining any benefits under any pension, retirement, profit-sharing, bonus,
life insurance or other benefit plan of the Company or under any agreement between the Company and the Participant, unless such plan or agreement specifically provides otherwise. 
  

 8 

	17.	Choice of Law 

 The Plan shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without regard to conflicts of laws, and except as otherwise provided in the pertinent Award Agreement, any and all disputes between a Participant and the Company or any Affiliate
relating to an Award shall be brought only in a state or federal court of competent jurisdiction sitting in New York, New York. 
  

	18.	Effectiveness of the Plan 

 The Plan shall be
effective as of the Effective Date. 
  

	19.	Stockholders Agreement. 

 Unless otherwise
determined by the Board, all Shares issued under the Plan shall be held by a Participant subject to the terms of the Stockholders Agreement. 
  

	20.	Restrictive Covenant Agreement. 

 Unless otherwise
determined by the Board, each Participant shall, as a condition to, and in consideration for being granted an Award hereunder, enter into the Restrictive Covenant Agreement. The Committee shall have the right to cancel, rescind, suspend, withhold or
otherwise limit or restrict any unexercised, unexpired, unpaid, or deferred Award (whether or not vested) at any time if the Participant violates the Restrictive Covenant Agreement. Upon exercise of, or payment or delivery pursuant to, an Award, the
Participant shall certify in a manner acceptable to the Committee that the Participant is in compliance with the terms and conditions of the Restrictive Covenant Agreement. In the event the Participant violates the Restrictive Covenant Agreement,
any exercise of, or payment or delivery pursuant to, an Award, may be rescinded by the Committee in its discretion. In the event of any such rescission, the Participant shall pay to the Company the amount of any gain realized in connection with, or
as a result of, the rescinded exercise, payment or delivery, in such manner and on such terms and conditions as may be required by the Committee, and the Company shall be entitled to set-off against the amount of any such gain any amount owed to the
Participant by the Company or any of its Affiliates.

2009. Interest due on each outstanding Borrowing Tranche of the Term Loan bearing interest under the LIBOR Rate Option shall be payable on the last day of the relevant LIBOR Rate Interest Period; provided that for LIBOR Rate Interest Periods in
excess of three months, interest shall also be payable on the 90th day of such LIBOR Rate Interest Period, on any 180th or 270th day of such LIBOR Rate Interest Period and on
the last day of such LIBOR Rate Interest Period. All accrued and unpaid interest on the Term Loan shall be due and payable on the Term Loan Maturity Date. 
 (iii) Payments After Maturity. After any maturity of any Note or the Obligations, whether on a scheduled maturity date, by acceleration or otherwise, all accrued and unpaid interest shall be due and payable on
demand until all amounts due hereunder are paid in full. 
 2.3d Method of Calculation. The interest rate shall be calculated on the basis of
the actual number of days elapsed, using a year of 360 days. Interest for any period shall be calculated from and including the first day thereof to but not including the last day thereof. 
 2.3e Interest Rate Option Elections, Renewals and Conversions. Subject to the remaining provisions of this Agreement, the Borrower shall have the option to
elect to have all or any Borrowing Tranches bear interest at either of the Interest Rate Options and shall have the right to renew elections of Interest Rate Options and convert Borrowing Tranches to the other Interest Rate Option. Notice of the
Borrower’s election shall be made in accordance with Section 2.2b. Elections of, conversions to or renewals of the Base Rate Option shall continue in effect until converted to the LIBOR Rate Option. Elections of, conversions to or renewals
of the LIBOR Rate Option shall expire as to each such LIBOR Rate Option at the expiration of the applicable LIBOR Rate Interest Period. Any Borrowing Tranches outstanding for which no elections have been made shall bear interest under the Base Rate
Option. 
 2.3f Limitation on Election of LIBOR Rate Options. Each election of the LIBOR Rate Option or the prepayment of all or any
LIBOR Rate Loans shall be in the minimum principal amount of $1,000,000 or, if in excess of $1,000,000, in integral multiples of $500,000. At no time during the term hereof may there be more than a total of six (6) separate Borrowing Tranches
in effect, no more than four (4) of which may bear interest at the LIBOR Rate Option. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Borrower’s right to elect, renew or convert to LIBOR Rate Loans shall be
suspended. 
 2.3g Special Provisions Relating to LIBOR Rate Option. 
 (i) LIBOR Rate Unascertainable. In the event that on any date on which a LIBOR Rate would otherwise be set the Bank shall have determined in
good faith (which determination shall be final and conclusive) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the London interbank market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR Rate, the Bank shall give prompt notice of
such determination to the Borrower, and until the Bank notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist, the right of the Borrower to borrow under, renew or convert to the LIBOR Rate Option shall be
treated as a request to borrow under, renew or convert to the Base Rate Option. 
 (ii) Illegality of Offering LIBOR
Rate. If the Bank shall determine in good faith, which determination shall be final and conclusive, that compliance by the Bank with any applicable Governmental Rule (whether or not having the force of law), or the interpretation or
application thereof by any Governmental Authority has made it unlawful for the Bank to make or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans, the Bank shall give notice of such determination to the Borrower. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the
contrary, unless and until the Bank shall give notice to the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer apply: 
 (A) with respect to any LIBOR Rate Interest Periods thereafter commencing, interest on the corresponding LIBOR Rate Loans shall be computed and payable under the Base Rate Option; and 
 
 (B) on such date, if any, as shall be required by law, any LIBOR Rate Loans
then outstanding shall be automatically renewed at the Base Rate Option; and the Borrower shall pay to the Bank the accrued and unpaid interest on such LIBOR Rate Loans to (but not including) such renewal date. The Borrower shall pay the Bank any
additional amounts reasonably necessary to compensate the Bank for any out-of-pocket costs incurred by the Bank as a result of any renewal pursuant to item (B) above on a day other than the last day of the relevant LIBOR Rate Interest Period,
including, but not limited to, any interest or fees payable by the Bank to lenders of funds obtained by it to loan or maintain the Loans so converted. The Bank shall furnish to the Borrower a certificate showing the calculation of the amount
necessary to compensate the Bank for such costs (which certificate, in the absence of manifest error, shall be conclusive), and the Borrower shall pay such amount to the Bank, as additional consideration hereunder, within ten (10) days of the
Borrower’s receipt of such certificate. 
 (iii) Inability to Offer LIBOR Rate. In the event that the Bank shall
determine, in its sole discretion, that it is unable to obtain deposits in the London interbank market in sufficient amounts and with maturities related to the LIBOR Rate Loans which 

  

 14 

 
would enable the Bank to fund such LIBOR Rate Loans, then the Bank shall immediately notify the Borrower that the right of the Borrower to borrow under,
convert to or renew the LIBOR Rate Option shall be suspended. Following notification of the suspension of the LIBOR Rate Option, the Borrower agrees to negotiate with the Bank for a modified LIBOR Rate which will allow the Bank to realize its
anticipated and bargained-for yield. In the event that the Borrower and the Bank cannot agree on a modified LIBOR Rate, any notice of borrowing under, conversion to or renewal of the LIBOR Rate Option which was to become effective during the period
of suspension shall be treated as a request to borrow under, convert to or renew the Base Rate Option with respect to the principal amount specified therein. 
 (iv) Indemnity. In addition to the other provisions of this Section 2.3g, the Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify the Bank against any loss or expense which the Bank may sustain or incur as a
consequence of any default by the Borrower in failing to make any borrowing, conversion or renewal hereunder to bear interest at the LIBOR Rate Option on the scheduled date, in failing to make when due (whether by declaration, acceleration or
otherwise) any payment of any LIBOR Rate Loan or in making any payment or prepayment of any LIBOR Rate Loan or any part thereof on any day other than the last day of the relevant LIBOR Rate Interest Period, including but not limited to any loss of
profit, premium or penalty incurred by the Bank in respect of funds borrowed by it for the purpose of making or maintaining any LIBOR Rate Loan as determined in good faith by the Bank in the exercise of its sole but reasonable discretion. The Bank
shall furnish to the Borrower a certificate showing the calculation of the amount of any such loss or expense (which certificate, absent manifest error, shall be conclusive), and the Borrower shall pay such amount to the affected Bank within ten
days of the Borrower’s receipt of such certificate. 
  

	2.4	Yield Protection; Indemnity. 

 2.4a Yield
Protection. If any Governmental Rule or the interpretation or application thereof by any court or any Governmental Authority charged with the administration thereof, or the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or
other Governmental Authority, whether or not having the force of law: 
 (i) subjects the Bank to any tax, levy, impost, charge, fee, duty,
deduction or withholding of any kind hereunder (other than any tax imposed or based upon the income of the Bank and payable to any Governmental Authority or taxing authority of the United States of America or any state thereof) or changes the basis
of taxation of the Bank with respect to payments by the Borrower of principal, interest or other amounts due from the Borrower hereunder (other than any change which affects, and to the extent that it affects, the taxation by the United States of
America or any state thereof of the total net income of the Bank), or 
 (ii) imposes, modifies or deems applicable any reserve, special
deposit, special assessment or similar requirements against assets held by, deposits with or for the account of or credit extended by the Bank, or 
 (iii) imposes upon the Bank any other condition with respect to this Agreement, 
 and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to
the Bank, reduce the income receivable by the Bank, reduce the rate of return on the Bank’s capital or impose any expense upon the Bank by an amount which the Bank in its sole but reasonable discretion deems to be material, the Bank shall from
time to time notify the Borrower of the amount determined by the Bank (which determination, absent manifest error, shall be conclusive) to be reasonably necessary to compensate the Bank (on an after-tax basis) for such increase in cost, reduction in
income, reduction in rate of return or additional expense, setting forth the calculations therefor, and the Borrower shall pay such amount to the Bank, as additional consideration hereunder, within 10 days of the Borrower’s receipt of such
notice. 
 2.4b Method of Calculation. In determining the amount due the Bank hereunder by reason of the application of this Section 2.4,
the Bank may use any reasonable averaging or attribution method; provided, however, that the Bank must use reasonable efforts to minimize such losses and costs. 
 2.5 Capital Adequacy. If (i) any adoption of, change in or interpretation of any Governmental Rule, or (ii) compliance with any guideline, request or directive of any central bank or other
Governmental Authority or quasi-Governmental Authority exercising control over banks or financial institutions generally, including but not limited to regulations set forth at 12 C.F.R. Part 3 (Appendix A), 12 C.F.R. Part 208 (Appendix A), 12 C.F.R.
Part 225 (Appendix A) and 12 C.F.R. Part 325 (Appendix A) or any court requires that the commitments of the Bank hereunder be treated as an asset or otherwise be included for purposes of calculating the appropriate amount of capital to be maintained
by the Bank or any corporation controlling the Bank (a “Capital Adequacy Event”), the result of which is to reduce the rate of return on the Bank’s capital as a consequence of such commitments to a level below that which the Bank
could have achieved but for such Capital Adequacy Event, taking into consideration the Bank’s policies with respect to capital adequacy, by an amount which the Bank reasonably deems to be material, the Bank shall promptly deliver to the
Borrower a statement of the amount necessary to compensate the Bank for the reduction in the rate of return on its capital attributable to such commitments (the “Capital Compensation Amount”). The Bank shall determine the Capital
Compensation Amount in good faith, using reasonable attribution and averaging methods. The Bank shall from time to time notify the Borrower of the amount so determined setting forth the calculations therefor (which determination, absent manifest
error, shall be conclusive). Such amount shall be due and payable by the Borrower to the Bank 10 Business Days after such notice is given. 
  

 15 

 2.6 Payments. 
 2.6a Place and Manner of Payments. All payments of principal, interest, fees, costs and other amounts due hereunder and under the other Loan Documents not credited to the Bank directly pursuant to the terms hereof or of the
Working Cash Sweep Agreement shall be made by the Borrower to the Bank at the Bank’s principal office at One PNC Plaza, Fifth Avenue and Wood Street, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15222, Attention: Corporate Finance Group, not later than 12:00 noon
(Eastern time) on the due date. All such payments with respect to the Loans shall be immediately good funds when delivered by the Borrower to the Bank. 
 2.6b No Set-Off or Deductions. Subject to the terms of Section 9.5c hereof any and all payments made by the Borrower hereunder shall be made to the Bank in full, without set-off or counterclaim and free and clear of and
without deduction or withholding for, or on account of, any and all present and future Taxes other than Excluded Taxes. If the Borrower is required by law to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder, (i) the
sum payable shall be increased, as may be necessary, so that after making all required deductions and withholdings (including deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Bank receives an amount equal to
the sum that it would have received had no deductions or withholdings been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make the required deductions or withholdings, and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant
taxing authority in accordance with any applicable Governmental Rule. The Bank agrees either to repay or credit at Bank’s discretion to the Borrower any refund or tax credit actually received by, or for the benefit of, the Bank for tax amounts
paid by the Borrower pursuant to this Section. 
 2.6c Tax Indemnity. The Borrower shall indemnify the Bank for the full amount of any Taxes
(other than Excluded Taxes) imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable by the Borrower under this Section paid or payable by the Bank and for any liability (including penalties, interest and reasonable expenses) arising therefrom or with respect
thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally asserted, and for any Taxes (other than Excluded Taxes) levied or imposed with respect to any indemnity payment made under this Section. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days
after the date the Bank makes written demand therefor. If such Taxes are not correctly or legally asserted, the Bank will reasonably cooperate with the Borrower at the Borrower’s expense in contesting such assessment. 
 2.6d Evidence of Payment. Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes withheld by the Borrower in respect of any payment by the Borrower to the
Bank, the Borrower shall furnish to the Bank the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by the relevant taxing authority evidencing payment by the Borrower to the taxing authority of any Taxes (other than Excluded Taxes) with respect to
any payment payable to the Bank. 
 2.6e Survival. The obligations of the Borrower under this Section shall survive the termination of this
Agreement and the payment of all amounts payable under this Agreement. 
 2.7 Loan Account. The Bank shall open and maintain on its books a
Loan Account in the Borrower’s name with respect to Loans made, repayments, prepayments, the computation and payment of interest and other amounts due and sums paid to the Bank hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. Such Loan Account
shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower as to the amount at any time due to the Bank from the Borrower except in the case of manifest error in computation. 
 2.8 Payment of Certain Fees. 
 2.8a Commitment Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Bank, on the last day of each March,
June, September and December during the term of the Revolving Credit Commitment and on the Revolving Credit Termination Date, a Commitment Fee calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed, using a year of 360 days, at a rate per
annum equal to the Applicable Commitment Fee on the average daily (computed at the opening of business) unused amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment (i.e., the Revolving Credit Commitment less the Outstanding Revolving Credit Amount) for the
Fiscal Quarter then ended. The first payment of the Commitment Fee under this Agreement shall be due on March 31, 2009, shall be for the period beginning on the Closing Date. The Commitment Fee shall no longer accrue with respect to portions of
the Revolving Credit Commitment which became permanently unavailable to the Borrower as a result of permanent reductions to the Revolving Credit Commitment made pursuant to Section 2.1b. 
 2.8b Closing Fee. The Borrower shall pay the Closing Fee on the Closing Date. 
 2.9 Payment From Accounts Maintained by Borrower. In the event that any payment of principal, interest, the Commitment Fees, the Letter of Credit Fees, the Closing Fee and any other fee or expense or any
other amount due the Bank under any of the Loan Documents is not paid when due, the Bank is hereby authorized to effect such payment by debiting the Parent Account or any deposit account of the Borrower now or in the future maintained with the Bank
by the Borrower either individually or with another Person. This right of debiting accounts of the Borrower is in addition to any right of setoff accorded the Bank hereunder or by operation of law. 
  

 16 

 2.10 Late Payment. If any payment required to be made by the Borrower hereunder is not made on the due date
thereof, the Borrower shall pay interest on the amount of such required payment at the Default Rate for any Borrowing Tranche bearing interest at the Base Rate Option (whether or not a Borrowing Tranche bearing interest). 
 2.11 Letter of Credit Subfacility. 
 2.11a Letter of
Credit Commitment. At the request of the Borrower, the Bank will issue for the account of the Borrower, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth (including without limitation Article 7 hereof), one or more Letters of Credit;
provided, however, no Letter of Credit shall have an expiry date later than fifteen (15) days prior to the Revolving Credit Termination Date; and provided, further, however, that in no event shall (i) the Stated Amount of the Letters of
Credit issued pursuant to this Section 2.11 exceed, at any one time, $2,000,000, or (ii) the sum of aggregate outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Credit Loans, the aggregate unpaid balance of outstanding Revolving Credit Loans,
the aggregate unpaid balance of any Unreimbursed L/C Draws and the aggregate Stated Amount of the Letters of Credit issued by the Bank under this Section 2.11 exceed, at any one time, the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment. 
 2.11b Letter of Credit Charges. 
 (i) The
Borrower shall pay to the Bank a fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) equal to a per annum rate of interest equal to the Applicable Margin for Revolving Credit Loans bearing interest at the LIBOR Rate Option, on the aggregate daily (computed
at the opening of business and on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed) Stated Amount of the outstanding Letters of Credit for the period in question. The Letter of Credit Fee shall be payable (A) quarterly in arrears on the
last Business Day of each Fiscal Quarter occurring during the term of this Agreement, (B) on the Revolving Credit Termination Date or (C) upon acceleration of the Revolving Credit Note. Any issuance of an amendment to extend the stated
expiration date of a Letter of Credit or an amendment to increase the Stated Amount of a Letter of Credit shall be treated as an issuance of a new Letter of Credit for purposes of calculation of the Letter of Credit Fee due and payable hereunder.
After the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuation thereof, the rate at which the Letter of Credit Fee is calculated shall be increased by two hundred (200) basis points (2%) above the pre-default rate. 
 (ii) The Borrower shall also pay to the Bank for the Bank’s own account the Bank’s customary documentation fees payable with respect to the
Letters of Credit as the Bank may generally charge from time to time. Without limitation, the foregoing shall include all charges and expenses paid or incurred by the Bank in connection with any Letter of Credit, including without limitation:
(A) correspondents’ charges, if any, (B) any and all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses and charges of the Bank in connection with the performance, administration, interpretation, collection and enforcement of this Agreement and any
Letter of Credit, including all reasonable legal fees and expenses, and (C) any and all applicable reserve or similar requirements and any and all premiums, assessments, or levies imposed upon the Bank by any Governmental Authority. 

(iii) If by reason of (A) any change in any Law or any change in the interpretation or application by any judicial or regulatory authority of any
Law or (ii) compliance by the Bank with any direction, request or requirement (whether or not having the force of law) of any Governmental Authority: 
 (A) the Bank shall be subject to any tax, levy, charge or withholding of any nature or to any variation thereof or to any penalty with respect to the maintenance or fulfillment of its obligations under this
Section 2.11, whether directly or by such being imposed on or suffered by the Bank; 
 (B) any reserve, deposit or similar requirement
is or shall be applicable, imposed or modified in respect of the Letters of Credit; or 
 (C) there shall be imposed on the Bank any other
condition regarding this Section 2.11 or the Letters of Credit; 
 and if the result of any of the foregoing is to directly or indirectly increase the
cost to the Bank of issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit, or to reduce the amount receivable in respect thereof by, the Bank, then and in any such case the Bank may, at any time after the additional cost is incurred or the amount receivable
is reduced, notify the Borrower, and the Borrower shall pay on demand such amounts as the Bank may specify to be necessary to compensate the Bank for such additional cost or reduced receipt, together with interest on such amount from the date of the
notice of such event which results in such increased cost or reduction in amount receivable until payment in full thereof at a rate equal at all times to the Base Rate. The determination by the Bank of any amount due pursuant to this
Section 2.11b as set forth in a certificate setting forth the calculation thereof, shall, in the absence of manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on all of the parties hereto. 
 2.11c Change in Law. In the event any restrictions are imposed upon the Bank by any Law of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the banking
activities of the Bank which would prevent the Bank from issuing the Letters of Credit or amending the Letters of Credit, the commitment of the Bank to issue the Letters of Credit or enter into any amendment with respect thereto shall be 

  

 17 

 
immediately suspended. The Bank shall promptly notify the Borrower of the existence and nature of any restriction which would cause the suspension of the
commitment of the Bank to issue the Letters of Credit or to enter into amendments with respect thereto. The Borrower will thereupon undertake reasonable efforts to obtain the cancellation of all outstanding Letters of Credit; provided, however, that
the refusal of any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit to surrender such Letter of Credit will not be an Event of Default hereunder, provided that the Borrower shall undertake good faith efforts to obtain substitute letters of credit for the then
existing and outstanding Letters of Credit. Nothing contained in this Section 2.11 shall be deemed a termination of the Revolving Credit Commitment and, in the event of a suspension of the commitment of the Bank to issue Letters of Credit as
set forth above, the Borrower may continue to borrow under the Revolving Credit Commitment provided the requirements of Sections 7.1 and 7.2 are complied with. 
 2.11d Procedures for Issuance of Letters of Credit. When the Borrower desires the issuance of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall deliver a duly completed application and agreement for Letter of Credit to the Bank no later
than 10:00 A.M. (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time) at least three (3) Business Days, or such shorter period as may be agreed to by the Bank, in advance of the proposed date of issuance. Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in
Section 7.1 and, if applicable, Section 7.2, the Bank shall be obligated to issue the Letter of Credit. In determining whether to pay under a Letter of Credit, the Bank shall be responsible only to determine that the documents and
certificates required to be delivered under the Letter of Credit have been delivered and that they comply on their face with the requirements of the Letter of Credit. 
 2.11e Reimbursement of Draws. In the event of any request for drawing under a Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof, the Bank shall immediately notify the Borrower, and the Borrower shall
reimburse, or cause the reimbursement of, the Bank on demand as set forth in the applicable application and agreement for Letter of Credit in an amount in same day funds equal to the amount of such drawing; provided, however, that anything contained
in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, unless the Borrower shall have notified the Bank prior to such time that the Borrower intends to reimburse the Bank for all or a portion of the amount of such drawing with funds other than the
proceeds of Revolving Credit Loans, the Borrower shall be deemed to have given a loan request to the Bank requesting the Bank to make Revolving Credit Loans on the first Business Day immediately following the date on which such drawing is honored in
an aggregate amount equal to the excess of the amount of such drawing over the amount received by the Bank from such other funds in reimbursement thereof (the “Unreimbursed L/C Draw”), plus accrued interest on such amount at the rate set
forth in Section 2.3a(i). Any such Revolving Credit Loan shall be deemed advanced to the Borrower. The proceeds of any such Revolving Credit Loans shall be applied directly by the Bank to reimburse the Bank for the Unreimbursed L/C Draw plus
accrued interest on such amount. The foregoing shall not limit or impair the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the Bank on demand. 
 2.11f
Reimbursement Obligations Absolute. The obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement to reimburse the Bank for all drawings upon the Letters of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall not be subject to any
right of set-off or counterclaim and shall be paid or performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, under all circumstances whatsoever, including the following circumstances: 
 (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any Letter of Credit or any of the Loan Documents; 
 (ii) any amendment or waiver of any provision of all or any of the Loan Documents; 
 (iii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other rights which the Borrower may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of
any Letter of Credit (or any Persons for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the Bank (other than the defense of payment to the Bank in accordance with the terms of this Agreement) or any other Person, whether in
connection with this Agreement, the Loan Documents or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby or any unrelated transaction; 
 (iv)
any draft, demand, certificate, statement or document presented under any Letter of Credit, appearing on its face to be valid and sufficient, but proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being
untrue or inaccurate in any respect whatsoever; 
 (v) payment by the Bank under any Letter of Credit against presentation of any document
which does not comply with the terms of the Letter of Credit, provided that such payment shall not have constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Bank; 
 (vi) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, not resulting from gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Bank; and 
 (vii) the fact that a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. 
 2.11g Construed with Applications. This Agreement is intended to supplement each application and agreement for Letter of Credit executed by the Borrower and delivered to the Bank. Whenever possible this
Agreement is to be construed as consistent with each application and agreement for Letter of Credit but, to the extent that the provisions of this Agreement and each application and agreement for Letter of Credit conflict, the terms of this
Agreement shall control. 
  

 18 

 2.11h Letter of Credit Indemnity. In addition to amounts payable as elsewhere provided in this
Section 2.11, the Borrower hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and save the Bank harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees)
which the Bank may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (i) the issuance of the Letters of Credit or any amendment thereto, other than as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Bank as
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, (ii) the failure of the Bank to honor a draw under any Letter of Credit if the Bank in good faith and upon advice of counsel believes that it is prohibited from making such payment as a result of
any requirement of Law or of any Governmental Authority, or (iii) any material breach by the Borrower of any representation, warranty, covenant, term or condition in, or the occurrence of any default under, any document related to the issuance
or any amendment of the Letters of Credit. If any proceeding shall be brought or threatened against the Bank by reason of or in connection with any event described in clauses (i) through (iii) above, the Bank shall promptly notify the
Borrower in writing, and the Borrower shall assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel and payment of all costs of litigation. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Bank shall have the right to employ their own counsel and
to determine its own defense of such action in any such case, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Bank unless (x) the employment of such counsel shall have been authorized in writing by the Borrower,
(y) the Borrower, after the aforementioned notice of the action, shall not have employed counsel to have charge of such defense or (z) if the position of the Borrower is adverse or contrary to the position advocated by the Bank, as the
case may be. In each case described in clauses (x), (y) and (z) immediately above the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for the Bank, as the case may be shall be borne by the Borrower. The Borrower shall not be liable for any
settlement of any such action affected without its consent. 
 2.11i Payments without Inquiry. The Bank is hereby expressly authorized and
directed to honor any request for payment which is made under and in compliance with the terms of any Letter of Credit without regard to, and without any duty on the Bank’s part to inquire into, the existence of any disputes or controversies
between the Borrower, the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any other Person, or the respective rights, duties or liabilities of any of them or whether any facts or occurrences represented in any of the documents presented under any Letter of
Credit are true or correct. Furthermore, the Borrower fully understands and agrees that the Bank’s sole obligation to the Borrower shall be limited to honoring requests for payment made under and in compliance with the terms of any Letter of
Credit, the application and agreement for Letter of Credit therefor and this Agreement and the Bank’s obligation remains so limited even if the Bank may have assisted the Borrower in the preparation of the wording of any Letter of Credit or any
documents required to be presented thereunder or that the Bank may otherwise be aware of the underlying transaction giving rise to any Letter of Credit and this Agreement. 
 2.11j Limitations on Liability of Bank. As between the Borrower and the Bank, the Borrower assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit by, the beneficiaries of the
Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Bank shall not be responsible: (i) for the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in connection
with the application for or the issuance or amendment of the Letters of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (ii) for the validity or sufficiency of any
instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign the Letters of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) for
failure of a beneficiary of a Letter of Credit to comply fully with conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit; (iv) for errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail,
cable, telegraph, telecopy, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) for errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) for any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a
draw under the Letters of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) for the misapplication by a beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; (viii) for any consequences arising from causes
beyond the control of the Bank, including, without limitation, any Law; and (ix) for any other circumstances whatsoever in making or failing to make payment under a Letter of Credit; except that the Borrower shall have a claim against the Bank,
and the Bank shall be liable to the Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential, damages suffered by the Borrower by a court of competent jurisdiction to be the result of (i) the Bank’s
willful misconduct or gross negligence in determining whether documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms of the Letter of Credit, (ii) the Bank’s willful misconduct or gross negligence in paying a draw under a
Letter of Credit to any Person other than the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or its lawful successor, representative or assign (or as otherwise directed in writing by the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit) or (iii) the Bank’s
willful failure to pay under a Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or its lawful successor, representative or assign of a sight draft and certificate or other documents strictly complying with
the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit, unless the Bank in good faith and upon advice of counsel believes that it is prohibited by law or other legal authority from making such payment. None of the above shall affect, impair, or prevent
the vesting of any of the Bank’s rights or powers hereunder. 
 2.11k Reduction in Credit Rating of Bank. Except for the Bank’s
obligations to issue Letters of Credit hereunder and its obligations under such Letters of Credit, the Bank shall have no liability to the Borrower from a reduction of the Bank’s credit rating or any deterioration in its financial condition.

  

 19 

 2.11l Expenses. The Borrower shall bear and pay all reasonable expenses of every kind (including all
reasonable attorneys’ fees) of the enforcement of any of the Bank’s rights under this Agreement or the Letters of Credit, or of any claim or demand by the Bank against the Borrower, or of any actual or attempted sale, exchange,
enforcement, collection, maintenance, retention, insurance, compromise, settlement, release, delivery on trust receipt, or other security agreement, or delivery of any such security, and of the receipt of proceeds thereof, and will repay to the Bank
any such expenses incurred by the Bank. 
 2.11m Good Faith Actions. In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific

constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Borrower enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with their respective terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium
or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and except as such enforceability may be limited by the availability of equitable remedies. 
 4.6 No Conflict. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by the Borrower and the consummation of the transactions herein or therein contemplated or compliance with the

individually or in the aggregate, if adversely determined, could reasonably be expected to be material or which purport to affect the rights and remedies of the Bank pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or which purport to
restrain or enjoin (either temporarily, preliminarily or permanently) the performance by either the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower of any action contemplated by any of the Loan Documents. All pending and, to the Borrower’s

“interest”) shall be deemed, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to be an expense, fee, premium or penalty rather than interest. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower hereby waives any provision of law which
renders any provision hereof prohibited, unenforceable or not authorized in any respect. 
 9.10 Survival. Except as otherwise provided in
Sections 4.20, 5.13, 9.2 and 9.3, all representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the Borrower contained herein or in the other Loan Documents or made in writing in connection herewith shall survive the issuance of the Notes and shall
continue in full force and effect so long as the Borrower may borrow hereunder and so long thereafter until all of the Obligations are paid in full. 
 9.11 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA, WITHOUT REGARD TO THE PRINCIPLES THEREOF REGARDING CONFLICT OF
LAWS, EXCEPTING APPLICABLE FEDERAL LAW AND EXCEPT ONLY TO THE EXTENT PRECLUDED BY THE MANDATORY APPLICATION OF THE LAW OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION.

 9.12 FORUM. THE PARTIES HERETO AGREE THAT ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT
OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS TO WHICH THE BORROWER IS A PARTY MAY BE COMMENCED IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS OF ALLEGHENY COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA OR IN THE DISTRICT COURT OF THE UNITED STATES FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF PENNSYLVANIA, AND THE PARTIES
HERETO AGREE THAT A SUMMONS AND COMPLAINT COMMENCING AN ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN EITHER OF SUCH COURTS SHALL BE PROPERLY SERVED AND SHALL CONFER PERSONAL JURISDICTION IF SERVED PERSONALLY OR BY CERTIFIED MAIL TO THE PARTIES AT THEIR ADDRESSES SET
FORTH IN SECTION 9.4, OR AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED UNDER THE LAWS OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA. FURTHER, THE BORROWER HEREBY SPECIFICALLY CONSENTS TO THE PERSONAL JURISDICTION OF THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS OF ALLEGHENY COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA AND THE
DISTRICT COURT OF THE UNITED STATES FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF PENNSYLVANIA AND WAIVES AND HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT IS ESTOPPED FROM RAISING ANY OBJECTION BASED ON FORUM NON CONVENIENS, ANY CLAIM THAT EITHER SUCH COURT LACKS PROPER VENUE

THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR PAYMENT TO THE BANK. THE BORROWER HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE CHOICE OF FORUM CONTAINED IN THIS SECTION 9.12 SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO PRECLUDE THE ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT OBTAINED IN ANY
FORUM OR THE TAKING OF ANY ACTION UNDER THE LOAN DOCUMENTS TO ENFORCE THE SAME IN ANY APPROPRIATE JURISDICTION.

parties hereto relating to the transactions provided for herein. 
 9.15 Headings. Article, Section and other headings used in this Agreement
are intended for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or construction of this Agreement. 
 9.16 Counterparts; Effectiveness. This
Agreement and any amendment hereto may be executed in several counterparts and by each party on a separate counterpart, each of which, when so executed and delivered, shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute but one and the
same instrument. In proving this Agreement, it shall not be necessary to produce or account for more than one such counterpart signed by the other party against whom enforcement is sought. This Agreement shall become binding when the parties have
delivered (which delivery may be by telecopier) at least one executed counterpart hereof or of the signature page hereto. 
 9.17 WAIVER OF JURY
TRIAL. IN ORDER TO EXPEDITE THE RESOLUTION OF ANY DISPUTES WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR UNDER ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT TO WHICH THE BORROWER IS A PARTY, AND IN LIGHT OF THE COMPLEXITY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT

to or by virtue of any action taken or not taken or anything done or not done by the Bank under or in respect of this Agreement or any Loan or Letter of Credit, save and except for any Losses which arise out of, or result from, the negligence, fraud
