No Swing Line Advance shall be used for the purpose of funding the payment of principal of any other Swing Line Advance. Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be in an amount of $5,000,000 or €5,000,000 as applicable, or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 or €1,000,000, as applicable, in excess thereof. Within the limits of the Swing Line Facility and within the limits referred to in clause (ii) above, the Borrowers may borrow under this Section 2.1(e), prepay pursuant to Section 2.11

(iv)Swing Line Borrowings. (A) Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be made on notice, given not later than (x) in the case of Swing Line Borrowings denominated in US Dollars, 3:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the date of the proposed Swing Line Borrowing by the applicable Borrower to any applicable Swing Line Bank and the Administrative Agent or (y) in the case of Swing Line Borrowings denominated in Euro, 5:00 P.M. (London time) on the Business Day immediately prior to the date of the proposed Swing Line Borrowing by the applicable Borrower to any applicable Swing Line Bank and the Administrative Agent, of which the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Lenders. Each such notice of a Swing Line Borrowing (a “Notice of Swing Line Borrowing”) shall be by telephone, confirmed at once in writing, or telecopier, specifying therein the requested (i) date of such Borrowing, (ii) amount and currency of such Borrowing and (iii) maturity of such Borrowing (which maturity shall be no later than the tenth Business Day after the requested date of such Borrowing). Each Swing Line Advance shall be a Base Rate Advance, if denominated in US Dollars, or an Overnight Swing Line Rate Advance, if denominated in Euro. The applicable Swing Line Bank shall, before 5:00 P.M. (New York City time), in the case of Swing Line Advances denominated in US Dollars, and before 3:45 P.M. (London time), in the case of Swing Line Advances denominated in Euro, on the date of such Swing Line Borrowing, make such Swing Line Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Account, in same day funds. After the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the applicable Borrower at the Administrative Agent’s address referred to in Section 10.2.

(B) Upon written demand by any Swing Line Bank, with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent, each other Lender will purchase from the Swing Line Bank, and such Swing Line Bank shall sell and assign to each such other Lender, such other Lender’s Ratable Share of any outstanding Swing Line Advance made by such Swing Line Bank, by making available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Swing Line Bank, by deposit to the Administrative Agent’s Account, in same day funds, an amount equal to the portion of the outstanding principal amount of such Swing Line Advance to be purchased by such Lender. Each Borrower hereby agrees to each such sale and assignment. Each Lender agrees to purchase its Ratable Share of an outstanding Swing Line Advance on (i) the Business Day on which demand therefor is made by the applicable Swing Line Bank, provided that notice of such demand is given not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on such Business Day or (ii) the first Business Day

next succeeding such demand if notice of such demand is given after such time. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to purchase its Ratable Share of Swing Line Advances pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Upon any such assignment by a Swing Line Bank to any other Lender of a portion of a Swing Line Advance, such Swing Line Bank represents and warrants to such other Lender that such Swing Line Bank is the legal and beneficial owner of such interest being assigned by it, but makes no other representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to such Swing Line Advance, this Agreement, the Notes or the Borrowers. If and to the extent that any Lender shall not have so made the amount of such Swing Line Advance available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such Lender is required to have made such amount available to the Administrative Agent until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate. If such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent such amount for the account of the applicable Swing Line Bank on any Business Day, such amount so paid in respect of principal shall constitute a Swing Line Advance made by such Lender on such Business Day for purposes of this Agreement, and the outstanding principal amount of the Swing Line Advance made by such Swing Line Bank shall be reduced by such amount on such Business Day.

(v)Additional Currency Facility Borrowings. Each Additional Currency Facility Borrowing shall be made in accordance with terms and conditions set forth in the applicable Additional Currency Facility Addendum.

(a)Anything in subsection (a) above to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrowers may not select Term Benchmark Rate Advances for any Borrowing if the aggregate amount of such Borrowing is less than the Borrowing Minimum or if the obligation of the Lenders to make Term Benchmark Rate Advances shall then be suspended pursuant to Section 2.9, 2.17, 8.1 or 8.2.

(b)Each Notice of Revolving Credit Borrowing, Notice of Canadian Borrowing and Notice of Australian Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower requesting such Borrowing.

(c)Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the time of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.2 and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower requesting such Borrowing on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such ratable portion available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and such Borrower severally agree to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to such Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Borrower, the interest rate applicable at

the time to Advances comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, (A) the Federal Funds Rate in the case of Advances denominated in US Dollars or (B) the cost of funds incurred by the Administrative Agent in respect of such amount in the case of Advances denominated in Committed Currencies. If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Lender’s Advance as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement.

(d)The failure of any Lender to make the Advance to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Advance on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Advance to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing.

(e)If the respective Unused Revolving Credit Commitments of the Revolving Credit Lenders on the first day of an Interest Period for any Revolving Credit Borrowing are different from the respective Unused Revolving Credit Commitments of the Revolving Credit Lenders on the last day of such Interest Period (in each case determined without giving effect to clauses (b)(vi) and (b)(vii) of the definition of Unused Revolving Credit Commitments), the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Revolving Credit Lenders and the respective Revolving Credit Advances shall be reallocated among the Revolving Credit Lenders so that, after giving effect to such reallocation, the Revolving Credit Advances comprising such Revolving Credit Borrowing and continuing into the subsequent Interest Period are funded by the Lenders ratably according to their respective Unused Revolving Credit Commitments on such last day. Each Revolving Credit Lender agrees that the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.3 shall not apply to any additional amounts required to be funded by such Lender pursuant to this Section 2.2(f).

Section 1.3[Reserved].

Section 1.4Issuance of and Drawings and Reimbursement Under Letters of Credit. (a) Request for Issuance. (i) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued upon notice, given not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the fifth Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Issuance of such Letter of Credit (or on such shorter notice as the applicable Issuing Bank may agree), by any Borrower to any Issuing Bank, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, and such Issuing Bank shall give the Administrative Agent, prompt notice thereof. Each such notice by a Borrower of Issuance of a Letter of Credit (a “Notice of Issuance”) shall be by telecopier, confirmed immediately in writing, specifying therein the requested (A) date of such Issuance (which shall be a Business Day), (B) Available Amount of such Letter of Credit, (C) expiration date of such Letter of Credit, (D) name and address of the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit and (E) form of such Letter of Credit. Such Letter of Credit shall be issued pursuant to such application and agreement for letter of credit used by such Issuing Bank (a “Letter of Credit Agreement”). If the requested form of such Letter of Credit is acceptable to such Issuing Bank in its reasonable discretion (it being understood that any such form shall have only explicit documentary conditions to draw and shall not include discretionary conditions), unless such Issuing Bank has received written notice from any Lender or the Administrative Agent, at least one Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment for the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 3.3 shall not then be satisfied, such Issuing Bank will issue the Letter of Credit in accordance with such Issuing Bank’s usual and customary business practices. In the event and to the extent that the provisions of any Letter of Credit Agreement shall conflict with this Agreement, the provisions of this

Agreement shall govern. The applicable Borrower shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with such Borrower’s instructions or other irregularity, such Borrower will immediately notify the applicable Issuing Bank.

(a)Letter of Credit Commitment. No Issuing Bank shall be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if any order, judgment or decree of any governmental authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Bank from issuing the Letter of Credit, or any law applicable to such Issuing Bank or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any governmental authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Bank shall prohibit, or request that such Issuing Bank refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally.

(b)Participations. By the Issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing or decreasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank or the Lenders, such Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Lender, and each Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Ratable Share of the Available Amount of such Letter of Credit. Each Borrower hereby agrees to each such participation. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of such Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Ratable Share of each drawing made under a Letter of Credit funded by such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the applicable Borrower on the date made, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to such Borrower for any reason, which amount will be advanced, and deemed to be a Revolving Credit Advance to such Borrower hereunder, regardless of the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 3.3. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Lender further acknowledges and agrees that its participation in each Letter of Credit will be automatically adjusted to reflect such Lender’s Ratable Share of the Available Amount of such Letter of Credit at each time such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment is amended pursuant to a Commitment Increase in accordance with Section 2.15, an assignment in accordance with Section 10.6 or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement.

(c)Drawing and Reimbursement. Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under a Letter of Credit issued by an Issuing Bank, such Issuing Bank will notify the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof. The payment by an Issuing Bank of a draft drawn under any Letter of Credit which is not reimbursed by the applicable Borrower on the date made shall constitute for all purposes of this Agreement the making by any such Issuing Bank of a Revolving Credit Advance, which shall be a Base Rate Advance, in the amount of such draft, without regard to whether the making of such an Advance would exceed such Issuing Bank’s Unused Revolving Credit Commitment. If the applicable Borrower fails to so reimburse the Issuing Bank by such time, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender and each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s Ratable Share of such outstanding Revolving Credit Advance pursuant to Section 2.4(b). Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to

make Revolving Credit Advances pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Promptly after receipt thereof, the Administrative Agent shall transfer such funds to such Issuing Bank. Each Lender agrees to fund its Ratable Share of an outstanding Revolving Credit Advance on (i) the Business Day on which demand therefor is made, provided that notice of such demand is given not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on such Business Day, or (ii) the first Business Day next succeeding such demand if notice of such demand is given after such time. If and to the extent that any Lender shall not have so made the amount of such Revolving Credit Advance available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date of demand until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate for the account of such Issuing Bank, as applicable. If such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent such amount for the account of any such Issuing Bank on any Business Day, such amount so paid in respect of principal shall constitute a Revolving Credit Advance made by such Lender on such Business Day for purposes of this Agreement, and the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Advance made by such Issuing Bank shall be reduced by such amount on such Business Day.

(d)Letters of Credit Issued for Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Subsidiary of a Borrower, such Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit. Each Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of its Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of such Borrower, and that such Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Subsidiaries.

(e)Letter of Credit Reports. Each Issuing Bank shall furnish (A) to the Administrative Agent and each Lender (with a copy to the Company) on the first Business Day of each month a written report summarizing Issuance and expiration dates of Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank during the preceding month and drawings during such month under all Letters of Credit and (B) to the Administrative Agent and each Lender (with a copy to the Company) on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter a written report setting forth the average daily aggregate Available Amount during the preceding calendar quarter of all Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank.

(f)Failure to Make Advances. The failure of any Lender to make the Revolving Credit Advance to be made by it on the date specified in Section 2.4(c) shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to make its Revolving Credit Advance on such date, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Revolving Credit Advance to be made by such other Lender on such date.

(g)Applicability of ISP. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement or as otherwise expressly agreed by the applicable Issuing Bank and the applicable Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued, the rules of the ISP shall apply to

such Letter of Credit. “ISP” means, with respect to any Letter of Credit, the “International Standby Practices 1998” published by the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice, Inc. (or such later version thereof as may be in effect at the time of issuance).

Such commitment fee shall accrue for each Lender from and including the Restatement Date to but excluding the date of termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments in their entirety, on the daily amount of such Lender’s Unused Revolving Credit Commitment; provided that no Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any commitment fee for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Company shall not be required to pay such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender). Accrued commitment fees under this Section shall be payable quarterly in arrears on each March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 and on the date of termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments in their entirety.

(i)Each Borrower shall pay to each Issuing Bank, for its own account, a fronting fee and such other commissions, issuance fees, transfer fees and other fees and charges in connection with the Issuance or administration of each Letter of Credit as such Borrower and such Issuing Bank shall agree.

(b)Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, a Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to any fees accruing pursuant to Sections 2.5(a) and 2.5(b)(i) during the period such Lender is a Defaulting Lender (without prejudice to the rights of the Lenders other than such Lender in respect of such fees), and in the case of Section 2.5(b)(i) such fees will instead accrue for the benefit of and be payable to other Lenders and/or the relevant Issuing Bank in accordance with Section 2.19(a)(iii) and 2.19(a)(iv) (and the payment provisions of this Agreement will automatically be deemed adjusted to reflect the provisions of this Section 2.5(c)).

Section 1.6Termination or Reduction of the Commitments.

(iii)the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right that such Borrower may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of a Letter of Credit (or any Persons for which any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), any Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with the transactions contemplated by the L/C Related Documents or any unrelated transaction;

Interest payable at the Default Rate shall be payable from time to time on demand.

Section 1.9Interest Rate Determination. (a) The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the applicable Borrower and the Lenders of the applicable interest rate determined by the Administrative Agent for purposes of Section 2.8(a).

(a)If any Borrower shall fail to select the duration of any Interest Period for any Term Benchmark Rate Advances in accordance with the provisions contained in the definition of “Interest Period” in Section 1.1, the Administrative Agent will forthwith so notify such Borrower and the Lenders and such Advances will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, continue with an Interest Period of one month.

(b)Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, (i) each Term Benchmark Rate Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, (A) if such Term Benchmark Rate Advances are denominated in US Dollars, be Converted into Base Rate Advances and (B) if such Term Benchmark Rate Advances are denominated in any Committed Currency, be exchanged for an Equivalent amount of US Dollars and be Converted into Base Rate Advances and (ii) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Advances into, Term Benchmark Rate Advances shall be suspended; provided that, the applicable Borrower may elect, by notice to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders within one Business Day of such Event of Default, to continue such Advances in such Committed Currency, whereupon the Administrative Agent may require that each Interest Period relating to such Term Benchmark Rate Advances (other than those denominated in Euro) shall bear interest at the Overnight Rate for a period of three Business Days and thereafter, each such Interest Period shall have a duration of one month and such Term

Benchmark Rate Advances denominated in Euro shall bear interest at a rate equal to €STR.

(c)If the Administrative Agent determines that the Overnight Swing Line Rate for any Overnight Swing Line Rate Advance or the Term Benchmark Rate for any Term Benchmark Rate Advance cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof,

(i)the Administrative Agent shall forthwith notify the applicable Borrower and the Lenders that the interest rate cannot be determined for such Advances,

(ii)each such Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, (A) if such Advance is denominated in US Dollars, Convert into a Base Rate Advance and (B) if such Advance is denominated in any Committed Currency, be prepaid by the applicable Borrower or be automatically exchanged for an Equivalent amount of US Dollars and be Converted into a Base Rate Advance (or if such Advance is then a Base Rate Advance, will continue as a Base Rate Advance), and

(iii)the obligation of the Lenders to make Term Benchmark Rate Advances or to Convert Advances into Term Benchmark Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.

(d)Interest Act (Canada). With respect to Advances made to a Canadian Borrower, whenever a rate of interest hereunder is calculated on the basis of a year (the “deemed year”) which contains fewer days than the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation, such rate of interest shall be expressed as a yearly rate for purposes of the Interest Act (Canada) by multiplying such rate of interest by the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation and dividing it by the number of days in the deemed year.

(e)Nominal Rates; No Deemed Reinvestment. With respect to Advances made to a Canadian Borrower, the principle of deemed reinvestment of interest shall not apply to any interest calculation under this Agreement; all interest payments to be made hereunder shall be paid without allowance or deduction for reinvestment or otherwise, before and after maturity, default and judgment. The rates of interest specified in this Agreement are intended to be nominal rates and not effective rates. Interest calculated hereunder shall be calculated using the nominal rate method and not the effective rate method of calculation.

(f)Interest Paid by a Canadian Borrower. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, in no event shall the aggregate “interest” (as defined in Section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada)) payable by a Canadian Borrower under this Agreement exceed the effective annual rate of interest on the “credit advanced” (as defined in the Section) under this Agreement lawfully permitted by that Section and, if any payment, collection or demand pursuant to this Agreement in respect of “interest” (as defined in that Section) is determined to be contrary to the provisions of that Section, such payment, collection or demand shall be deemed to have been made by mutual mistake of a Canadian Borrower and the Canadian Lenders and the amount of such payment or collection shall be refunded to such Canadian Borrower. For the purposes of this Agreement, the effective annual rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted actuarial practices and principles over the relevant

term and, in the event of a dispute, a certificate of a Fellow of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries appointed by the Canadian Lenders will be prima facie evidence of such rate.

(g)Interest on Bank Bill Rate Advances. With respect to Bank Bill Rate Advances made to an Australian Borrower, the rate of interest shall be calculated on actual days elapsed and a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be.

Section 1.10Optional Conversion of Advances. The Borrower of any Advance may on any Business Day, upon notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Conversion and subject to the provisions of Sections 2.9, 2.17, 8.1 and 8.2, Convert all or a portion of the Advances of one Type comprising the same Borrowing under a Facility into Advances under such Facility denominated in the same currency of the other Type; provided, however, that any Conversion of Term Benchmark Rate Advances into Base Rate Advances shall be made only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Term Benchmark Rate Advances, and any Conversion of Base Rate Advances or Canadian Prime Rate Advance, as the case may be, into Term Benchmark Rate Advances, shall be in an amount not less than the minimum amount specified in Section 2.2(b). Each such notice of a Conversion shall, within the restrictions specified above, specify (i) the date of such Conversion, (ii) the Advances to be Converted, and (iii) if such Conversion is into Term Benchmark Rate Advances, the duration of the initial Interest Period for each such Advance. Each notice of Conversion shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower giving such notice.

Section 1.11Prepayments of Advances. (a) Optional. Each Borrower may, upon notice (i) at least three Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment, in the case of SONIA Rate Advances and Term Benchmark Rate Advances denominated in a Term Benchmark Committed Currency (other than US Dollars), (ii) at least three U.S. Government Securities Business Days’ prior to the date of such prepayment, in the case of Term Benchmark Rate Advances denominated in US Dollars, (iii) at least two Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment, in the case of Bank Bill Rate Advances, and (iv) not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the date of such prepayment, in the case of Base Rate Advances or Canadian Prime Rate Advances, to the Administrative Agent or to the Australian Sub-Agent, in the case of Australian Advances denominated in Australian Dollars, , stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of the prepayment, and if such notice is given such Borrower shall, prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing in whole or ratably in part, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid; provided, however, that (x) each partial prepayment of Advances shall be in an aggregate principal amount of not less than the Borrowing Minimum or a Borrowing Multiple in excess thereof, (y) in the event of any such prepayment of a Term Benchmark Rate Advance, such Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.18 and (z) each partial prepayment of Swing Line Advances shall be in an aggregate principal amount of not less than $1,000,000 or €1,000,000, as applicable.

(a)Mandatory. (i) If, on any date, the Administrative Agent notifies the Company that, on any interest payment date, the sum of (A) the aggregate principal amount of all Advances denominated in US Dollars plus the aggregate Available Amount of all Letters of Credit then outstanding (net of any cash collateral provided by the Borrowers in accordance with Section 2.19(a)) plus (B) the Equivalent in US Dollars (determined on the third Business Day prior to such interest payment date) of the aggregate principal amount of all Advances denominated in Foreign Currencies then outstanding exceeds 105% of the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders on such date, the Borrowers shall, as soon as practicable and in any event within

three Business Days after receipt of such notice, subject to the proviso to this sentence set forth below, prepay the outstanding principal amount of any Advances owing by the Borrowers in an aggregate amount sufficient to reduce such sum to an amount not to exceed 100% of the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders on such date together with any interest accrued to the date of such prepayment on the aggregate principal amount of Advances prepaid; provided that if the aggregate principal amount of Base Rate Advances or Canadian Prime Rate Advances outstanding at the time of such required prepayment is less than the amount of such required prepayment, the portion of such required prepayment in excess of the aggregate principal amount of Base Rate Advances and Canadian Prime Rate Advances then outstanding shall be deferred until the earliest to occur of the last day of the Interest Period of the outstanding Term Benchmark Rate Advances in an aggregate amount equal to the excess of such required prepayment. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice of any prepayment required under this Section 2.11(b) to the Borrowers and the Lenders, and shall provide prompt notice to the Borrowers of any such notice of required prepayment received by it from any Lender.

Each prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.11(b) shall be made together with any interest accrued to the date of such prepayment on the principal amounts prepaid and, in the case of any prepayment of a Term Benchmark Rate Advance on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period or at its maturity, any additional amounts which the applicable Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse to the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.18. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice of any prepayment required under this Section 2.11(b) to the Company and the Lenders.

Section 1.12General Provisions as to Payments. (a) Each Borrower shall make each payment hereunder (except with respect to principal of, interest on, and other amounts relating to, Advances denominated in a Foreign Currency), irrespective of any right of counterclaim or set-off, not later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the day when due in US Dollars to the Administrative Agent at the applicable Administrative Agent’s Account in same day funds. Each Borrower shall make each payment hereunder with respect to principal of, interest on, and other amounts relating to, Advances denominated in a Foreign Currency, irrespective of any right of counterclaim or set-off, not later than 12:00 Noon (at the Payment Office for such Foreign Currency) on the day when due in such Foreign Currency to the Administrative Agent or the Australian Sub-Agent, by deposit of such funds to the applicable Administrative Agent’s (or Australian Sub-Agent’s) Account in same day funds. The Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest, fees or commissions ratably (other than amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.5(b), 2.18, 8.3, 8.4 or 10.3) to the Lenders for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such Lender for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon any Assuming Lender becoming a Lender hereunder as a result of a Commitment Increase pursuant to Section 2.15 or an extension of the Termination Date pursuant to Section 2.16, and upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such Lender’s Assumption Agreement and recording of the information contained therein, from and after the applicable Increase Date or Extension Date, as the case may be, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments hereunder and under any Notes issued in connection therewith in respect of the interest assumed thereby to the Assuming Lender. Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and Acceptance and recording of the information contained therein pursuant to Section 10.6(c), from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments hereunder and under the Notes in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Acceptance

shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective date directly between themselves.

(a)All computations of interest based on the Base Rate or the SONIA Rate shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, all computations of interest based on the Canadian Prime Rate shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and all computations of interest based on the Term Benchmark Rate or the Federal Funds Rate and of fees and Letter of Credit commissions shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days (or, in each case of Advances denominated in Foreign Currencies where market practice differs, in accordance with market practice), in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest, fees or commissions are payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(b)Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Notes shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest, fees or commissions, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Term Benchmark Rate Advances to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.

(c)Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from any Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent such Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at (i) the Federal Funds Rate in the case of Advances denominated in US Dollars or (ii) the cost of funds incurred by the Administrative Agent in respect of such amount in the case of Advances denominated in Foreign Currencies.

(d)To the extent that the Administrative Agent receives funds for application to the amounts owing by any Borrower under or in respect of this Agreement or any Note in currencies other than the currency or currencies required to enable the Administrative Agent to distribute funds to the Lenders in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.12, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to convert or exchange such funds into US Dollars or into a Foreign Currency or from US Dollars to a Foreign Currency or from a Foreign Currency to US Dollars, as the case may be, to the extent necessary to enable the Administrative Agent to distribute such funds in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.12; provided that each Borrower and each of the Lenders hereby agree that the Administrative Agent shall not be liable or responsible for any loss, cost or expense suffered by such Borrower or such Lender as a result of any conversion or exchange of currencies affected pursuant to this Section 2.12(e) or as a

result of the failure of the Administrative Agent to effect any such conversion or exchange; and provided further that the Borrowers agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and hold the Administrative Agent and each Lender harmless, for any and all losses, costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender for any conversion or exchange of currencies (or the failure to convert or exchange any currencies) in accordance with this Section 2.12(e).

Section 1.13Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) on account of the Advances owing to it (other than (x) as payment of a Revolving Credit Advance made by an Issuing Bank pursuant to the first sentence of Section 2.4(c), as payment of a Swing Line Advance pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(v), (y) pursuant to Section 2.18, 8.3, 8.4 or 10.3 or (z) as consideration for an assignment or participation in accordance with Section 10.6) in excess of its Ratable Share of payments on account of the Advances obtained by all the Lenders, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Advances owing to them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase from each Lender shall be rescinded and such Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered, and provided further that, so long as the Advances shall not have become due and payable pursuant to Section 6.1, any excess payment received by any Lender under a Facility shall be shared on a pro rata basis only with other Lenders that have Commitments or Advances under such Facility. Each Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 2.13 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation.

Section 1.14Evidence of Debt. (a) Each Lender may, by notice to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, request that its Commitments or its Advances be evidenced by a promissory note forms of which are attached hereto as Exhibits F-1, F-2 and F-3 or as an exhibit to the applicable Additional Currency Facility Addendum, in an amount equal to its Commitments, as the case may be. In such event, each Borrower, at its costs, shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns). Thereafter, the Advances evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 10.6) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns). Each such promissory note shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the requesting Lender, the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent. Each reference in this Agreement to the “Note” of such Lender shall be deemed to refer to and include any or all of such Notes, as the context may require.

(a)Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of each Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Advance made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

(b)The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Advance made hereunder and the type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.

(c)The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of any Borrower to repay the Advances in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

Section 1.15Increase in the Aggregate Commitments. At any time prior to the Termination Date (but not more than once in any calendar quarter), if no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at such time, the Company may, if it so elects, increase the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments (each, a “Commitment Increase”), either by designating a Person not theretofore a Lender and acceptable to the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Swing Line Bank (such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld) (each such Person, an “Assuming Lender”) to become a Lender (provided that such new Lender accepts a Revolving Credit Commitment of not less than US$5,000,000) or by agreeing with an existing Lender that such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment shall be increased (each such Lender, an “Increasing Lender”). Upon execution and delivery by the Borrowers and each Increasing Lender or Assuming Lender of an instrument of assumption in form and amount reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Swing Line Bank (each an “Assumption Agreement”), such Increasing Lender shall have a Revolving Credit Commitment as therein set forth or such Assuming Lender shall become a Lender with a Revolving Credit Commitment as therein set forth and all the rights and obligations of a Lender with a Revolving Credit Commitment hereunder; provided that (i) the Company shall provide prompt notice of such increase to the Administrative Agent, which shall promptly notify the other Lenders, (ii) the aggregate amount of each such increase which is effective on any day shall be at least US$25,000,000 or an integral multiple thereof, (iii) the aggregate amount of the Commitments shall at no time exceed US$4,500,000,000 and (iv) the Administrative Agent shall have received on or before such date (A) certified copies of resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Company evidencing the ability of the Company to effect the Commitment Increase and (B) an opinion of counsel for the Company (which may be in-house counsel), in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto with such modifications as are reasonably acceptable to the Required Lenders.

Upon any increase in the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.15, within five Business Days in the case of the Base Rate Advances or SONIA Rate Advances outstanding, and at the end of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto in the case of the Advances comprising each Term Benchmark Rate Borrowing then outstanding (but in any event within 45 days), the respective Revolving Credit Advances shall be reallocated among the Revolving Credit Lenders so that, after giving effect to such reallocation, the Revolving Credit Advances comprising each Revolving Credit Borrowing and continuing into the subsequent Interest Period are funded by the Lenders ratably according to their respective Unused Revolving Credit Commitments on such day. Each Revolving Credit Lender (x) agrees that the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.3 shall not apply to any additional amounts required to be funded by such Lender pursuant to this Section 2.15 and (y) waives any amounts otherwise payable by any Borrower under Section 2.18 in the event of a

reallocation of Revolving Credit Advances pursuant to this Section 2.15 other than on the last day of an Interest Period.

At any time prior to the Termination Date (but not more than once in any calendar quarter), if no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at such time, the Company may, if it so elects, increase the aggregate amount of the Australian Commitments, either by designating a consenting Lender not theretofore an Australian Lender and acceptable to the Administrative Agent (such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld) to become an Australian Lender (an “Assuming Australian Lender”) (provided that such new Australian Lender accepts an Australian Commitment of not less than US$2,500,000) or by agreeing with an existing Australian Lender that such Lender’s Australian Commitment shall be increased (an “Increasing Australian Lender”). Upon execution and delivery by the Company and each Increasing Australian Lender or Assuming Australian Lender of an instrument of assumption in form and amount reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, such Lender shall have an Australian Commitment as therein set forth; provided that (i) the Company shall provide prompt notice of such increase to the Administrative Agent, which shall promptly notify the other Australian Lenders, (ii) the aggregate amount of each such increase which is effective on any day shall be at least US$5,000,000 or an integral multiple thereof, (iii) the aggregate amount of the Australian Commitments shall at no time exceed US$215,000,000 and (iv) the Administrative Agent shall have received on or before such date (A) certified copies of resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Company and each Australian Borrower evidencing the ability of the Company and each Australian Borrower to effect increase in the Australian Commitments and (B) an opinion of counsel for the Company and each Australian Borrower (which may be in-house counsel), in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto with such modifications as are reasonably acceptable to the Australian Lenders holding a majority in interest of the Australian Commitments. Upon any increase in the aggregate amount of the Australian Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.15, at the end of the then current Interest Period with respect to Australian Advances comprising each Term Benchmark Rate Borrowing then outstanding (but in any event within 45 days), the respective Australian Advances shall be reallocated among the Australian Lenders so that, after giving effect to such reallocation, the Australian Advances comprising each Australian Borrowing and continuing into the subsequent Interest Period are funded by the Australian Lenders ratably according to their respective Unused Australian Commitments on such day. Prior to any reallocation and except as otherwise expressly provided herein, any payments made to the Australian Lenders shall be made pro rata with respect to their respective Australian Commitments in effect prior to such reallocation. Each Australian Lender (x) agrees that the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.3 shall not apply to any additional amounts required to be funded by such Lender pursuant to this Section 2.15 and (y) waives any amounts otherwise payable by any Borrower under Section 2.18 in the event of a reallocation of Australian Advances pursuant to this Section 2.15 other than on the last day of an Interest Period.

Section 1.16Extension of Termination Date. (a) At least 45 days but not more than 60 days prior to any anniversary of the Restatement Date, the Company, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, may request an extension of the Termination Date in effect at such time by one year from its then scheduled expiration. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of such request, and each Lender shall in turn, in its sole discretion, not later than 30 days prior to such anniversary date, notify the Company and the Administrative Agent in writing as to whether such Lender will consent to such extension. If any Lender shall fail to notify the Administrative Agent and the Company in writing of its consent to any such request for extension of the Termination Date at least 20 days prior to such anniversary date, such Lender shall be deemed to be a Non-Consenting Lender with respect to such request. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Company not later than 15 days prior to such anniversary

date of the decision of the Lenders regarding the Company’s request for an extension of the Termination Date.

(a)If all the Lenders consent in writing to any such request in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.16, the Termination Date in effect at such time shall, effective as at the applicable anniversary date (the “Extension Date”), be extended for one year. If less than all of the Lenders consent in writing to any such request in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.16, the Termination Date in effect at such time shall, effective as at the applicable Extension Date and subject to subsection (d) of this Section 2.16, be extended as to those Lenders that so consented (each a “Consenting Lender”) but shall not be extended as to any other Lender (each a “Non-Consenting Lender”). To the extent that the Termination Date is not extended as to any Lender pursuant to this Section 2.16 and the Commitment of such Lender is not assumed in accordance with subsection (c) of this Section 2.16 on or prior to the applicable Extension Date, the Commitment of such Non-Consenting Lender shall automatically terminate in whole on such unextended Termination Date without any further notice or other action by the Company, such Lender or any other Person; provided that such Non-Consenting Lender’s rights under Sections 2.18, 8.3, 8.4 and 10.3, and its obligations under Section 7.6, shall survive the Termination Date for such Lender as to matters occurring prior to such date. It is understood and agreed that no Lender shall have any obligation whatsoever to agree to any request made by the Company for any requested extension of the Termination Date.

(b)If less than all of the Lenders consent to any such request pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section 2.16, the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify the Company. The Company may arrange for one or more Consenting Lenders or other Eligible Assignees as Assuming Lenders to assume, effective as of the Extension Date, any Non-Consenting Lender’s Commitment and all of the obligations of such Non-Consenting Lender under this Agreement thereafter arising, without recourse to or warranty by, or expense to, such Non-Consenting Lender; provided, however, that the amount of the Commitment of any such Assuming Lender as a result of such substitution shall in no event be less than US$10,000,000 unless the amount of the Commitment of such Non-Consenting Lender is less than US$10,000,000, in which case such Assuming Lender shall assume all of such lesser amount; and provided further that:

(i)any such Consenting Lender or Assuming Lender shall have paid to such Non-Consenting Lender (A) the aggregate principal amount of, and any interest accrued and unpaid to the effective date of the assignment on, the outstanding Advances, if any, of such Non-Consenting Lender plus (B) any accrued but unpaid commitment fees owing to such Non-Consenting Lender as of the effective date of such assignment;

(ii)all additional costs reimbursements, expense reimbursements and indemnities payable to such Non-Consenting Lender, and all other accrued and unpaid amounts owing to such Non-Consenting Lender hereunder, as of the effective date of such assignment shall have been paid to such Non-Consenting Lender; and

(iii)with respect to any such Assuming Lender, the applicable processing and recordation fee required under Section 10.6 for such assignment shall have been paid;

provided further that such Non-Consenting Lender’s rights under Sections 2.18, 8.3 and 8.4, and its obligations under Section 7.6, shall survive such substitution as to matters occurring prior to the date of substitution. At least three Business Days prior to any Extension Date, (A) each such

Assuming Lender, if any, shall have delivered to the Company and the Administrative Agent an Assumption Agreement, duly executed by such Assuming Lender, such Non-Consenting Lender, the Company and the Administrative Agent, (B) any such Consenting Lender shall have delivered confirmation in writing satisfactory to the Company and the Administrative Agent as to the increase in the amount of its Commitment and (C) each Non-Consenting Lender being replaced pursuant to this Section 2.16 shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent any Note or Notes held by such Non-Consenting Lender. Upon the payment or prepayment of all amounts referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of the immediately preceding sentence, each such Consenting Lender or Assuming Lender, as of the Extension Date, will be substituted for such Non-Consenting Lender under this Agreement and shall be a Lender for all purposes of this Agreement, without any further acknowledgment by or the consent of the other Lenders, and the obligations of each such Non-Consenting Lender hereunder shall, by the provisions hereof, be released and discharged.

(c)If (after giving effect to any assignments or assumptions pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section 2.16) Lenders having Commitments equal to at least 50% of the Commitments in effect immediately prior to the Extension Date consent in writing to a requested extension (whether by execution or delivery of an Assumption Agreement or otherwise) not later than one Business Day prior to such Extension Date, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Company, and, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 3.3 (a) and (b), the Termination Date then in effect shall be extended for the additional one-year period as described in subsection (a) of this Section 2.16, and all references in this Agreement, and in the Notes, if any, to the “Termination Date” shall, with respect to each Consenting Lender and each Assuming Lender for such Extension Date, refer to the Termination Date as so extended. Promptly following each Extension Date, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders (including, without limitation, each Assuming Lender) of the extension of the scheduled Termination Date in effect immediately prior thereto and shall thereupon record in the Register the relevant information with respect to each such Consenting Lender and each such Assuming Lender.

Section 1.17Benchmark Replacement Setting.

(I) With respect to any Advances other than Advances denominated in Canadian Dollars:

(a) Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event with respect to any Benchmark, the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers may amend this Agreement to replace such Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement. Any such amendment with respect to a Benchmark Transition Event will become effective at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Administrative Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all affected Lenders and the Company so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such amendment from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. No replacement of a Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this Section 2.17(I)(a) will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date.

(b) Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement.

(c) Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrowers and the Lenders of (i) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement and (ii) the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement. The Administrative Agent will notify the Company of (x) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to Section 2.17(I)(d) and (y) the commencement of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 2.17(I), including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.17(I).

(d) Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

(e) Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrowers’ receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period with respect to a given Benchmark, (i) the Borrowers may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term Benchmark Rate Advances to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period denominated in the applicable currency and, failing that, (A) in the case of any request for any affected Borrowing in US Dollars, if applicable, the applicable Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Base Rate Borrowing or conversion to Base Rate Advances in the amount specified therein and (B) in the case of any request for any affected Borrowing in a Term Benchmark Committed Currency (other than US Dollars), if applicable, then such request shall be ineffective and (ii)(A) any outstanding affected Term Benchmark Rate Advances denominated in US Dollars, if applicable, will be deemed to have been converted into Base Rate Advances immediately and (B) any outstanding affected Term Benchmark Rate Advances denominated in a Term Benchmark Committed Currency (other than US Dollars), at the applicable Borrower’s election, shall either (I) be converted into Base Rate Advances denominated in US Dollars (in an amount equal to the Equivalent in US Dollars of such Committed Currency) at the end of the applicable Interest Period or (II) be prepaid in full at the end of the applicable Interest Period; provided that, with respect to any affected Term Benchmark Rate Advances, if no election is made by the applicable Borrower by the earlier of (x) the date that is three Business Days after receipt by such Borrower of such notice and (y) the last day of the current Interest Period for the applicable Term Benchmark Rate Advance, such Borrower shall be deemed to have elected clause (I) above. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the applicable Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount

so prepaid or converted, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 2.18. During a Benchmark Unavailability Period with respect to any Benchmark or at any time that a tenor for any then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of Base Rate or Canadian Prime Rate, as applicable, based upon the then-current Benchmark that is the subject of such Benchmark Unavailability Period or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of Base Rate or Canadian Prime Rate, as applicable.

(f) Certain Defined Terms. As used in this Section 2.17(I):

“Agreed Currency” means US Dollars or any Committed Currency other than Canadian Dollars.

“Available Tenor” means, as of any date of determination and with respect to the then-current Benchmark for any currency, as applicable, if such Benchmark is a term rate, any tenor for such Benchmark (or component thereof) that is or may be used for determining the length of an interest period pursuant to this Agreement as of such date and not including, for the avoidance of doubt, any tenor for such Benchmark that is then-removed from the definition of “Interest Period” pursuant to clause (d) of this Section 2.17(I).

“Benchmark” means, initially, the Relevant Rate; provided that if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Transition Date have occurred with respect to such Relevant Rate or the then-current Benchmark, then “Benchmark” means the applicable Benchmark Replacement to the extent that such Benchmark Replacement has replaced such prior benchmark rate pursuant to clause (a) of this Section 2.17(I).

“Benchmark Replacement” means, with respect to any Benchmark Transition Event for any then-current Benchmark, the sum of: (a) the alternate benchmark rate that has been selected by the Administrative Agent and the Company as the replacement for such Benchmark giving due consideration to (i) any selection or recommendation of a replacement benchmark rate or the mechanism for determining such a rate by the Relevant Governmental Body or (ii) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a benchmark rate as a replacement for the then-current Benchmark for syndicated credit facilities denominated in the applicable Agreed Currency at such time and (b) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment; provided that, if the Benchmark Replacement as so determined would be less than the Floor, the Benchmark Replacement will be deemed to be the Floor for the purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

“Benchmark Replacement Adjustment” means, with respect to any replacement of any then-current Benchmark with an Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement, the spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) that has been selected by the Administrative Agent and the Company giving due consideration to (a) any selection or recommendation of a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark

Replacement by the Relevant Governmental Body or (b) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for syndicated credit facilities denominated in the applicable Agreed Currency at such time.

“Benchmark Replacement Date” means the earlier to occur of the following events with respect to the then-current Benchmark for any Agreed Currency:

(1) in the case of clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition Event,” the later of (a) the date of the public statement or publication of information referenced therein and (b) the date on which the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) permanently or indefinitely ceases to provide such Benchmark (or such component thereof) or, if such Benchmark is a term rate, all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof);

(2) in the case of clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition Event”, the first date on which such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) has been or, if such Benchmark is a term rate, all Available Tenors or such Benchmark (or such component thereof) have been determined and announced by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) to be non-representative; provided that such non-representativeness will be determined by reference to the most recent statement or publication referenced in such clause (3) and even if such Benchmark (or such component thereof) or, if such Benchmark is a term rate, any Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) continues to be provided on such date.

For the avoidance of doubt, if such Benchmark is a term rate, the “Benchmark Replacement Date” will be deemed to have occurred in the case of clause (1) or (2) with respect to any Benchmark upon the occurrence of the applicable event or events set forth therein with respect to all then-current Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof).

“Benchmark Transition Event” means, with respect to the then-current Benchmark for any Agreed Currency, the occurrence of one or more of the following events with respect to such Benchmark:

(1) a public statement or publication of information by or on behalf of the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) announcing that such administrator has ceased or will cease to provide such Benchmark (or such component thereof) or, if such Benchmark is a term rate, all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof), permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide such Benchmark (or such component thereof) or, if such Benchmark is a term rate, any Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or such component thereof);

(2) a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof), the Federal Reserve Board, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, the central bank for the Currency applicable to such Benchmark, an insolvency official with jurisdiction over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component), a resolution authority with jurisdiction over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component) or a court or an entity with similar insolvency or resolution authority over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component), which states that the administrator of such Benchmark (or such component) has ceased or will cease to provide such Benchmark (or such component thereof) or, if such Benchmark is a term rate, all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide such Benchmark (or such component thereof) or, if such Benchmark is a term rate, any Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or such component thereof); or

(3) a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) announcing that such Benchmark (or such component thereof) or, if such Benchmark is a term rate, all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) are not, or as of a specified future date will not be, representative.

For the avoidance of doubt, if such Benchmark is a term rate, a “Benchmark Transition Event” will be deemed to have occurred with respect to any Benchmark if a public statement or publication of information set forth above has occurred with respect to each then-current Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof).

“Benchmark Transition Start Date” means, with respect to any Benchmark, in the case of a Benchmark Transition Event, the earlier of (a) the applicable Benchmark Replacement Date and (b) if such Benchmark Transition Event is a public statement or publication of information of a prospective event, the 90th day prior to the expected date of such event as of such public statement or publication of information (or if the expected date of such prospective event is fewer than 90 days after such statement or publication, the date of such statement or publication).

“Benchmark Unavailability Period” means, with respect to any then-current Benchmark for any Currency, the period (if any) (a) beginning at the time that a Benchmark Replacement Date with respect to such Benchmark has occurred if, at such time, no Benchmark Replacement has replaced such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in accordance with this Section 2.17(I) and (b) ending at the time that a Benchmark Replacement has replaced such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in accordance with this Section 2.17(I).

“Relevant Governmental Body” means (a) with respect to a Benchmark Replacement in respect of Advances denominated in US Dollars, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, or a committee officially endorsed or convened by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, or any successor thereto and (b) with respect to a Benchmark Replacement in respect of Advances denominated in any Committed Currency, (i) the central bank for the currency in which such Benchmark Replacement is denominated or any central bank or other supervisor which is responsible for supervising either (A) such Benchmark Replacement or (B) the administrator of such Benchmark Replacement or (ii) any working group or committee officially endorsed or convened by (A) the central bank for the currency in which such Benchmark Replacement is denominated, (B) any central bank or other supervisor that is responsible for supervising either (1) such Benchmark Replacement or (2) the administrator of such Benchmark Replacement, (C) a group of those central banks or other supervisors or (D) the Financial Stability Board or any part thereof.

“Relevant Rate” means, (i) with respect to any Term Benchmark Rate Advance denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Euro, the Term Benchmark Rate with respect to such Agreed Currency, (ii) with respect to any Advance denominated in Sterling, the SONIA Rate, (iii) with respect to any Advance denominated in Australian Dollars, the Bank Bill Rate, (iv) with respect to any Term Benchmark Rate Advance denominated in Euro, the EURIBO Rate, and (v) with respect to any Swing Line Advance denominated in Euro, €STR.

“Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement” means the applicable Benchmark Replacement excluding the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment.

(II) With respect to any Advances denominated in Canadian Dollars:

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document:

(a)Replacing CDOR. On May 16, 2022 Refinitiv Benchmark Services (UK) Limited (“RBSL”), the administrator of CDOR, announced in a public statement that the calculation and publication of all tenors of CDOR will permanently cease immediately following a final publication on Friday, June 28, 2024. On the date that all Canadian Available Tenors of CDOR have either permanently or indefinitely ceased to be provided by RBSL (the “CDOR Cessation Date”), if the then-current Canadian Benchmark is the CDOR Rate, the Canadian Benchmark Replacement will replace such Canadian Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any setting of such Canadian Benchmark on such day and all subsequent settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. If the Canadian Benchmark Replacement is Daily Compounded CORRA, all interest payments will be payable on a monthly basis.

(b)Replacing Future Canadian Benchmarks. Upon the occurrence of a Canadian Benchmark Transition Event, the Canadian Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Canadian Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Canadian Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Canadian Benchmark Replacement is provided by the

Administrative Agent to the Lenders and any Canadian Borrower without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Canadian Benchmark Replacement from Canadian Lenders holding 50% or more of the aggregate amount of the Canadian Commitments. At any time that the administrator of the then-current Canadian Benchmark has permanently or indefinitely ceased to provide such Canadian Benchmark or such Canadian Benchmark has been announced by the administrator or the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Canadian Benchmark pursuant to public statement or publication of information to be no longer representative of the underlying market and economic reality that such Canadian Benchmark is intended to measure and that representativeness will not be restored, any Canadian Borrower may revoke any request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Canadian Advances to be made, converted or continued that would bear interest by reference to such Canadian Benchmark until the such Canadian Borrower’s receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent that a Canadian Benchmark Replacement has replaced such Canadian Benchmark, and, failing that, such Canadian Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to Canadian Prime Rate Advances. During the period referenced in the foregoing sentence, the component of the Canadian Prime Rate based upon the Canadian Benchmark will not be used in any determination of the Canadian Prime Rate.

(c)Canadian Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation and administration of a Canadian Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Canadian Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Canadian Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement.

(d)Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Canadian Borrowers and the Lenders of (i) the implementation of any Canadian Benchmark Replacement, (ii) any occurrence of a Term CORRA Transition Event, (iii) the effectiveness of any Canadian Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, and (iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Canadian Benchmark provided under Section 2.17(II)(c). Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Canadian Lender (or group of Canadian Lenders) pursuant to this Section 2.17(II), including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party hereto, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.17(II).

(e)Unavailability of Tenor of Canadian Benchmark. At any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Canadian Benchmark Replacement), if the then-current Canadian Benchmark is a term rate (including Term CORRA or the CDOR Rate), then (i) the Administrative Agent may remove any tenor of such Canadian Benchmark that is unavailable or non-representative for Canadian Benchmark (including Canadian Benchmark Replacement) settings and (ii) the Administrative Agent may reinstate any such previously removed tenor for Canadian Benchmark (including Canadian Benchmark Replacement) settings.

(f)Secondary Term CORRA Conversion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any Loan Document and subject to the proviso below in this clause, if a Term CORRA Transition Event and its related Term CORRA Transition Date have occurred, then on

and after such Term CORRA Transition Date (i) the Canadian Benchmark Replacement described in clause (1)(a) of such definition will replace the then-current Canadian Benchmark for all purposes hereunder or under any Loan Document in respect of any setting of such Canadian Benchmark on such day and all subsequent settings, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document; and (ii) each Canadian Advance outstanding on the Term CORRA Transition Date bearing interest based on the then-current Canadian Benchmark shall convert, on the last day of the then-current Interest Period, into an Advance bearing interest at the Canadian Benchmark Replacement described in clause (1)(a) of such definition for the respective Canadian Available Tenor as selected by any Canadian Borrower as is available for the then-current Canadian Benchmark; provided that, this clause (f) shall not be effective unless the Administrative Agent has delivered to the Lenders and such Canadian Borrower a Term CORRA Notice.

(g)Certain Defined Terms. As used in this Section 2.17(II):

“Canadian Available Tenor” means, as of any date of determination and with respect to the then-current Canadian Benchmark, as applicable, (x) if the then-current Canadian Benchmark is a term rate, any tenor for such Canadian Benchmark that is or may be used for determining the length of an Interest Period or (y) otherwise, any payment period for interest calculated with reference to such Canadian Benchmark, as applicable, pursuant to this Agreement as of such date.

“Canadian Benchmark” means, initially, the CDOR Rate; provided that if a replacement of the Canadian Benchmark has occurred, then “Canadian Benchmark” means the applicable Canadian Benchmark Replacement to the extent that such Canadian Benchmark Replacement has replaced such prior benchmark rate. Any reference to “Canadian Benchmark” shall include, as applicable, the published component used in the calculation thereof.

“Canadian Benchmark Replacement”, means, for any Canadian Available Tenor:

(1)For purposes of clause (a) of this Section 2.17(II), the first alternative set forth below that can be determined by the Administrative Agent:

(a)the sum of: (i) Term CORRA and (ii) 0.29547% (29.547 basis points) for a Canadian Available Tenor of one-month’s duration, and 0.32138% (32.138 basis points) for a Canadian Available Tenor of three-months’ duration, or

(b)the sum of: (i) Daily Compounded CORRA and (ii) 0.29547% (29.547 basis points) for a Canadian Available Tenor of one-month’s duration, and 0.32138% (32.138 basis points) for a Canadian Available Tenor of three-months’ duration; and

(2)For purposes of clause (b) of this Section 2.17(II), the sum of (a) the alternate benchmark rate and (b) an adjustment (which may be a positive or negative value or zero), in each case, that has been selected by the Administrative

Agent and the Canadian Borrowers as the replacement for such Canadian Available Tenor of such Canadian Benchmark giving due consideration to any evolving or then-prevailing market convention, including any applicable recommendations made by the Canadian Relevant Governmental Body, for Canadian dollar-denominated syndicated credit facilities at such time;

provided that, if the Canadian Benchmark Replacement as determined pursuant to clause (1) or (2) above would be less than the Canadian Floor, the Canadian Benchmark Replacement will be deemed to be the Canadian Floor for the purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

“Canadian Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes” means, with respect to any Canadian Benchmark Replacement, any technical, administrative or operational changes (including changes to the definition of “Canadian Prime Rate,” the definition of “Business Day,” the definition of “Interest Period,” timing and frequency of determining rates and making payments of interest, timing of borrowing requests or prepayment, conversion or continuation notices, the applicability and length of lookback periods, the applicability of breakage provisions, and other technical, administrative or operational matters) that the Administrative Agent (in consultation with the Company) decides may be appropriate to reflect the adoption and implementation of such Canadian Benchmark Replacement and to permit the administration thereof by the Administrative Agent in a manner substantially consistent with market practice (or, if the Administrative Agent decides that adoption of any portion of such market practice is not administratively feasible or if the Administrative Agent determines that no market practice for the administration of such Canadian Benchmark Replacement exists, in such other manner of administration as the Administrative Agent decides is reasonably necessary in connection with the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents). Without limiting the foregoing, Canadian Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes made in connection with the replacement of the CDOR Rate with a Canadian Benchmark Replacement may include the implementation of mechanics for borrowing loans that bear interest by reference to the Canadian Benchmark Replacement, to replace the creation or purchase of drafts or bankers’ acceptances.

“Canadian Benchmark Transition Event” means, with respect to any then-current Canadian Benchmark other than the CDOR Rate, the occurrence of a public statement or publication of information by or on behalf of the administrator of the then-current Canadian Benchmark, the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Canadian Benchmark, the Bank of Canada, an insolvency official with jurisdiction over the administrator for such Canadian Benchmark, a resolution authority with jurisdiction over the administrator for such Canadian Benchmark or a court or an entity with similar insolvency or resolution authority over the administrator for such Canadian Benchmark, announcing or stating that (a) such administrator has ceased or will cease on a specified date to provide all Canadian Available Tenors of such Canadian Benchmark, permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide any Canadian Available Tenor of

such Canadian Benchmark or (b) all Canadian Available Tenors of such Canadian Benchmark are or will no longer be representative of the underlying market and economic reality that such Canadian Benchmark is intended to measure and that representativeness will not be restored.

(i) so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing, all or any part of the Available Amount of outstanding Letters of Credit and the principal amount of all outstanding Swing Line Borrowings shall be ratably reallocated among the Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders (“non-Defaulting Lenders”) in accordance with their respective Ratable Shares (disregarding any Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that the sum of (A) the aggregate principal amount of all Advances made by such non-Defaulting Lenders (in their capacity as Lenders) and outstanding at such time, plus (B) such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Ratable Shares (before giving effect to the reallocation contemplated herein) of the Available Amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit and of outstanding Swing Line Borrowings, plus (C) the aggregate principal amount of all Advances made by each Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.2(c) that have not been ratably funded by such non-Defaulting Lenders and outstanding at such time, plus (D) such Defaulting Lender’s Ratable Share of the Available Amount of such Letters of Credit and Swing Line Borrowings, does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Commitments.

(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrowers shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent, cash collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s Ratable Share of the Available Amount of such Letters of Credit and such Swing Line Borrowings (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) by paying cash collateral to the applicable Issuing Bank or the applicable Swing Line Bank, as applicable, for so long as such Letters of Credit or Swing Line Borrowings are outstanding;

(iii) if the Ratable Shares of Letters of Credit of the non-Defaulting Lenders are reallocated pursuant to this Section 2.19(a), then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.5(b)(i) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Ratable Shares of Letters of Credit; or

(iv) if any Defaulting Lender’s Ratable Share of Letters of Credit is neither cash collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to Section 2.19(a), then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any Issuing Bank or any Lender hereunder, all letter of credit fees payable under Section 2.6(b)(i) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Ratable Share of Letters of Credit shall be payable to the applicable Issuing Bank until such Lender’s Ratable Share of Letters of Credit is cash collateralized and/or reallocated.

(b)So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, and no Swing Line Bank shall be required to fund any Swing Line Advance, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure will be 100% covered by the Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the applicable Borrower in accordance with Section 2.19(a), and participating interests in any such newly issued or increased Letter of Credit or Swing Line Borrowings shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.19(a)(i) (and Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein).

(c)No Commitment of any Lender shall be increased or otherwise affected, and, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 2.19, performance by the Borrowers of their obligations shall not be excused or otherwise modified as a result of the operation of this Section 2.19. The rights and remedies against a Defaulting Lender under this Section 2.19 are in addition to any other rights and remedies which the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender.

(d)If the Company, the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Swing Line Bank agree in writing in their reasonable determination that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be 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, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Advances of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Advances to be funded and held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Commitments, 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 Borrowers 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 such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

Upon the drawing of any Letter of Credit, to the extent funds are on deposit in the L/C Cash Deposit Account, such funds shall be applied to reimburse the Issuing Banks to the extent permitted by applicable law. After all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon and all other obligations of the applicable Borrowers hereunder and under the Notes shall have been paid in full, the balance, if any, in such L/C Cash Deposit Account shall be returned to such Borrowers.

Article 7
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

Section 1.1Authorization and Authority. Each Lender irrevocably appoints and authorizes Citibank 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. Except for Section 7.6, (i) the provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and (ii) no Borrower 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 Document (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.

Section 1.2Rights 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 any 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.

Section 1.3Duties of Administrative Agent; Exculpatory Provisions.

(a) The Administrative Agent’s duties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are solely ministerial and administrative in nature and the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein or as may exist at law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:

(i) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

(ii) 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 Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that 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

(iii) 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.

(b) 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 Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 10.5 or 6.1) 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 Default or the event or events that give or may give rise to any Default unless and until a Borrower or any Lender shall have given notice to the Administrative Agent describing such Default and such event or events.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty, representation or other information made or supplied 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 or the adequacy, accuracy and/or completeness of the information contained therein, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or the perfection or priority of any Lien or security interest created or purported to be created hereby or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article 3 or elsewhere herein, other than (but subject to the foregoing clause (ii)) to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

(d) Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall require the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties to carry out any “know your customer” or other checks in relation to any person on behalf of any Lender and each Lender confirms to the Administrative Agent that it is solely responsible for any such checks it is required to carry out

and that it may not rely on any statement in relation to such checks made by the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties.

Section 1.4Reliance 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) reasonably 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 an Advance, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless an officer of the Administrative Agent responsible for the transactions contemplated hereby shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Advance or the issuance of such Letter of Credit, and in the case of a Borrowing, such Lender shall not have made available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrowers), 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.

Section 1.5Delegation of Duties.

The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents (including, without limitation, the Australian Sub-Agent) 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. Each such sub-agent and the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and each such sub-agent shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article 7, Article 2, Section 8.4(b), Section 10.3 and 10.17 (as though such sub-agents were the “Administrative Agent” under the Loan Documents) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto.

Section 1.6Resignation of Administrative Agent.

(a) The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Company. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent, subject, so long as no Event of Default shall be continuing, to the approval of such successor Administrative Agent by the Company. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (such 30-day period, the “Lender Appointment Period”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a commercial bank organized or licensed under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least US$100,000,000 and which is reasonably acceptable to the Company. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties as Administrative Agent of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations as Administrative Agent hereunder or under the

other Loan Documents. The fees payable by the Company to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Company and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.3 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 Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

(b) Any resignation pursuant to this Section by a Person acting as Administrative Agent shall, unless such Person shall notify the Company and the Lenders otherwise, also act to relieve such Person and its Affiliates of any obligation to issue new, or extend existing, Letters of Credit or advance any Swing Line Advance where such issuance, extension or advance is to occur on or after acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder. Upon such acceptance, (i) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Issuing Bank and the retiring Swing Line Bank, (ii) the retiring Issuing Bank and retiring Swing Line Bank shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, (iii) the successor Swing Line Bank shall enter into an Assignment and Assumption and acquire from the retiring Swing Line Bank each outstanding Swing Line Advance made by the retiring Swing Line Bank for a purchase price equal to par plus accrued interest and (iv) the successor Issuing Bank shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangement satisfactory to the retiring Issuing Bank to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring Issuing Bank with respect to such Letters of Credit.

Section 1.7Non-Reliance on Agent and Other Lenders.

(a) Each Lender confirms to the Administrative Agent, each other Lender and each of their respective Related Parties that it (i) possesses (individually or through its Related Parties) such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable, without reliance on the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or any of their respective Related Parties, of evaluating the merits and risks (including tax, legal, regulatory, credit, accounting and other financial matters) of (x) entering into this Agreement, (y) making Advances and other extensions of credit hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (z) in taking or not taking actions hereunder and thereunder, (ii) is financially able to bear such risks and (iii) has determined that entering into this Agreement and making Advances and other extensions of credit hereunder and under the other Loan Documents is suitable and appropriate for it.

(i) the financial condition, status and capitalization of each Borrower;

(ii) the legality, validity, effectiveness, adequacy or enforceability of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and any other agreement, arrangement or document entered into, made or executed in anticipation of, under or in connection with any Loan Document;

(iii) determining compliance or non-compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of an Advance, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit and the form and substance of all evidence delivered in connection with establishing the satisfaction of each such condition; or

(a) Each Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of any Borrower, that at least one of the following is and will be true:

(iii) (A) such Lender is an investment fund managed by a “Qualified Professional Asset Manager” (within the meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14), (B) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the investment decision on behalf of such Lender to enter into, participate in, administer and perform the Advances, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, (C) the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Advances, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement satisfies the requirements of sub-sections (b) through (g) of Part I of PTE 84-14 and (D) to the best knowledge of such Lender, the requirements of subsection (a) of Part I of PTE 84-14 are satisfied with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Advances, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, or

(iv)such other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, and such Lender.

(b) In addition, unless either (1) sub-clause (i) in the immediately preceding clause (a) is true with respect to a Lender or (2) a Lender has provided another representation, warranty and covenant in accordance with sub-clause (iv) in the immediately preceding clause (a), such Lender further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of any Borrower, that the Administrative Agent is not a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender involved in the Advances, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Loan Document or any documents related to hereto or thereto).

Section 1.12Recovery of Erroneous Payments. (a) If the Administrative Agent notifies a Lender or Issuing Bank, or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender or Issuing Bank (any such Lender, Issuing Bank or other recipient, a “Payment Recipient”) that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under immediately succeeding clause (b)) that any funds received by such Payment

Recipient from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Lender, Issuing Bank or other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such funds, whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”) and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Administrative Agent and shall be segregated by the Payment Recipient and held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, and such Lender or Issuing Bank shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment Recipient to) promptly, but in no event later than two Business Days thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at the greater of (x) the Federal Funds Rate in the case of Advances denominated in US Dollars or (ii) the cost of funds incurred by the Administrative Agent in respect of such amount in the case of Advances denominated in Foreign Currencies and (y) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Payment Recipient under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(b) Without limiting immediately preceding clause (a), each Lender and Issuing Bank, and any Person who has received funds on behalf of such Lender or Issuing Bank, hereby further agrees that if it receives a payment, prepayment or repayment (whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise) from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates), or (z) that such Lender or Issuing Bank, or other such recipient, otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part) in each case:

(i)(A) in the case of immediately preceding clauses (x) or (y), an error shall be presumed to have been made (absent written confirmation from the Administrative Agent to the contrary) or (B) an error has been made (in the case of immediately preceding clause (z)), in each case, with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment; and

(ii)such Lender or Issuing Bank shall (and shall cause any other recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf to) promptly (and, in all events, within one Business Day of its knowledge of such error) notify the Administrative Agent of its receipt of such payment, prepayment or repayment, the details thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 7.12(b).

(c) Each Lender and Issuing Bank hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender or Issuing Bank under

any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Administrative Agent to such Lender or Issuing Bank from any source, against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under immediately preceding clause (a) or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement.

(d) In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Administrative Agent for any reason, after demand therefor by the Administrative Agent in accordance with immediately preceding clause (a), from any Lender or Issuing Bank that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) (and/or from any Payment Recipient who received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) on its respective behalf) (such unrecovered amount, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”), upon the Administrative Agent’s notice to such Lender or Issuing Lender at any time, (i) such Lender or Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have assigned its Advances (but not its Commitments) of the relevant Facility with respect to which such Erroneous Payment was made (the “Erroneous Payment Impacted Facility”) in an amount equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as the Administrative Agent may specify) (such assignment of the Advances (but not Commitments) of the Erroneous Payment Impacted Facility, the “Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment”) at par plus any accrued and unpaid interest (with the assignment fee to be waived by the Administrative Agent in such instance), and is hereby (together with the Borrowers) deemed to execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption (or, to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to the Platform as to which the Administrative Agent and such parties are participants) with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and such Lender or Issuing Bank shall deliver any Notes evidencing such Advances to the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent, (ii) the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall be deemed to acquire the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, (iii) upon such deemed acquisition, the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall become a Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and the assigning Lender or assigning Issuing Bank shall cease to be a Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, its obligations under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement and its applicable Commitments which shall survive as to such assigning Lender or assigning Issuing Bank and (iv) the Administrative Agent may reflect in the Register its ownership interest in the Advances subject to the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment. The Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, sell any Advances acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and upon receipt of the proceeds of such sale, the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Lender or Issuing Bank shall be reduced by the net proceeds of the sale of such Advance (or portion thereof), and the Administrative Agent shall retain all other rights, remedies and claims against such Lender or Issuing Bank (and/or against any recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf). For the avoidance of doubt, no Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment will reduce the Commitments of any Lender or Issuing Bank and such Commitments shall remain available in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In addition, each party hereto agrees that, except to the extent that the Administrative Agent has sold an Advance (or portion thereof) acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent may be equitably subrogated, the Administrative Agent shall be contractually subrogated to all the rights and interests of the applicable Lender or Issuing Bank under the Loan Documents with respect to each Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency.

(e) The parties hereto agree that an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any obligations owed by any Borrower, except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous

Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from any Borrower for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment.

(f) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payment received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.

(g) Each party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 7.12 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender or Issuing Bank, the termination of the Commitments and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations of the Borrowers (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document.

Article 8
CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES

Section 1.1Basis for Determining Interest Rate Inadequate or Unfair. If on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period for any Term Benchmark Rate Advance:

(a)the Administrative Agent determines, which determination shall be conclusive, that quotations of interest rates for the relevant deposits referred to in the definition of Term Benchmark Rate are not being provided in the relevant amounts; or

(b)in the case of a Borrowing, Lenders having 50% or more of the aggregate amount of the Commitments under a Facility advise the Administrative Agent that the Term Benchmark Rate as determined by the Administrative Agent will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding their Term Benchmark Rate Advances for such Interest Period,

the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrowers and the Lenders, whereupon (A) the Borrower of such Term Benchmark Rate Advances will, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, (1) if such Term Benchmark Rate Advances are denominated in US Dollars, either (x) prepay such Advances or (y) Convert such Advances into Base Rate Advances and (2) if such Term Benchmark Rate Advances are denominated in any Committed Currency, either (x) prepay such Advances or (y) exchange such Advances into an Equivalent amount of US Dollars and Convert such Advances into Base Rate Advances and (B) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Advances into, Term Benchmark Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist; provided that, if the circumstances set forth in clause (b) above are applicable, the applicable Borrower may elect, by notice to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, to continue such Advances in such Committed Currency for Interest Periods of one month, which Advances shall thereafter bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Term Benchmark Margin plus, for each Lender, the cost to such Lender (expressed as a rate per annum) of funding its Term Benchmark Rate Advances by whatever means it reasonably determines to be appropriate. Each Lender shall certify its cost of funds for each Interest Period to the Administrative Agent and such Borrower as soon as

practicable (but in any event not later than ten Business Days after the first day of such Interest Period).

Section 1.2Illegality. If, after the date of this Agreement, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender (or its Term Benchmark Lending Office) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, shall make it unlawful or impossible for any Lender (or its Term Benchmark Lending Office) to make, maintain, fund or Convert into Term Benchmark Rate Advances and such Lender shall so notify the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the other Lenders and the Borrowers, whereupon until such Lender notifies the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the obligation of such Lender to make or Convert into Term Benchmark Rate Advances shall be suspended. Before giving any notice to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 8.2, such Lender shall designate a different Term Benchmark Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for giving such notice and will not, in the judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. If such Lender shall determine that it may not lawfully continue to maintain and fund any of its outstanding Term Benchmark Rate Advances to maturity and shall so specify in such notice, the Borrowers shall immediately Convert the then outstanding principal amount of each such Term Benchmark Rate Advance of such Lender into a Base Rate Advance from such Lender in an equal principal amount (on which Advance interest and principal shall be payable contemporaneously with the related Term Benchmark Rate Advances of the other Lenders).

Section 1.3Increased Cost and Reduced Return. (a) If after the Restatement Date, in the case of any Advance, any obligation to make or Convert Advances or any Letter of Credit, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including, without limitation, any such requirement imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), special deposit, insurance assessment or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) of making, maintaining or Converting into any Advance, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) under this Agreement (other than an increase in cost or reduction in amount attributable to taxes, which shall solely be governed by Section 8.4), by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then, within 15 days after demand by such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), each Borrower agrees to pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction which arise out of its Advances or any Notes.

(a)If any Lender shall have determined that, after the Restatement Date, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy or liquidity, or any change in any such law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or any

request or directive regarding capital adequacy or liquidity (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of such Lender (or its Parent) as a consequence of such Lender’s obligations hereunder (including its obligations in respect of participations in Letters of Credit) to a level below that which such Lender (or its Parent) could have achieved but for such adoption, change, request or directive (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time, within 15 days after demand by such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), each Borrower agrees to pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender (or its Parent) for the portion of such reduction attributable to its Advances or any Notes.

(b)Each Lender will promptly notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent of any event of which it has knowledge, occurring after the Restatement Date, which will entitle such Lender to compensation pursuant to this Section 8.3 and will designate a different Applicable Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not, in the judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. A certificate of any Lender claiming compensation under this Section 8.3 and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

(c)For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, for the purposes of this Section 8.3, (x) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, regulations, guidelines, interpretations or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith (whether or not having the force of law) and (y) all requests, rules, regulations, guidelines, interpretations or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority ) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities (whether or not having the force of law), in case for this clause (y) pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a change in law regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued, promulgated or implemented.

Section 1.4Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by each Borrower to or for account of any Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any Note shall be made without deduction for any Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that, if such Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes or Other Taxes from any such payments, (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 8.4) such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Borrower, shall make such deductions, (iii) such Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law and (iv) such Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in Section 10.1, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof or, if such a receipt is not usually available, any other document evidencing payment thereof that is reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent.

(a)Each Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender and the Administrative Agent for the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including, without

limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 8.4) paid by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto; provided that the foregoing indemnity shall not apply to any Taxes or Other Taxes which would have been compensated for by an increased payment under Section 8.4(a) but was not so compensated solely because one or more of the exclusions in Section 8.4(f) applied. This indemnification shall be paid within 15 days after such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) makes demand therefor.

(b)(i) Each Lender organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof and on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Lender in the case of each other Lender, and as required thereafter if requested in writing by the Company (but only so long as such Lender remains lawfully able to do so), shall provide the Company with Internal Revenue Service Form W8-BEN or W8-IMY or W-ECI, as appropriate, or any successor form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, certifying that such Lender is entitled to benefits under an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party which exempts such Lender from United States withholding tax or reduces the rate of withholding tax on payments of interest for the account of such Lender or certifying that the income receivable pursuant to this Agreement is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States.

(ii) If a payment made to a Lender would be subject to United States withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Company, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested in writing by the Company, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested in writing by the Company as may be necessary for the Borrowers to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.

(c)For any period with respect to which a Lender required to do so has failed to provide the Company with the appropriate form pursuant to Section 8.4(c) (unless such failure is due to a change in treaty, law or regulation occurring subsequent to the date on which such form originally was required to be provided), such Lender shall not be entitled to indemnification under Section 8.4(a) or (b) with respect to Taxes imposed by the United States; provided that if a Lender, which is otherwise exempt from or subject to a reduced rate of withholding tax, becomes subject to Taxes because of its failure, if required, to deliver a form required hereunder, the Borrowers shall take such steps as such Lender shall reasonably request to assist such Lender to recover such Taxes.

(d)If a Borrower is required to pay additional amounts to or for the account of any Lender pursuant to this Section 8.4, then such Lender will change the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office if, in the judgment of such Lender, such change (i) will eliminate or reduce any such additional payment which may thereafter accrue and (ii) is not otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

(e)A payment by a UK Borrower shall not be increased under Section 8.4(a) above by reason of a UK Tax Deduction if, on the date on which the payment falls due:

(i)the payment could have been made to the relevant Lender without a UK Tax Deduction if the Lender had been a UK Qualifying Lender, but on that date that Lender is not or has ceased to be a UK Qualifying Lender other than as a result of any change after the date it became a Lender under this Agreement in (or in the interpretation, administration, or application of) any law or UK Treaty or any published practice or published concession of any relevant taxing authority; or

(ii) the relevant Lender is a UK Qualifying Lender solely by virtue of paragraph (b) of the definition of “UK Qualifying Lender” and (x) an officer of HM Revenue & Customs has given (and not revoked) a direction (a “Direction”) under section 931 of the UK ITA which relates to the payment and that Lender has received from the UK Borrower making the payment or from the Company a certified copy of that Direction and (y) the payment could have been made to the Lender without any UK Tax Deduction if that Direction had not been made; or

(iii)the relevant Lender is a UK Qualifying Lender solely by virtue of paragraph (b) of the definition of “UK Qualifying Lender” and (x) the relevant Lender has not given a UK Tax Confirmation to the Company and (y) the payment could have been made to the Lender without any UK Tax Deduction if the Lender had given a UK Tax Confirmation to the Company, on the basis that the UK Tax Confirmation would have enabled the Company and the relevant UK Borrower to have formed a reasonable belief that the payment was an “excepted payment” for the purpose of section 930 of the UK ITA; or

(iv)the relevant Lender is a UK Treaty Lender and the UK Borrower making the payment is able to demonstrate that the payment could have been made to the Lender without the UK Tax Deduction had that Lender complied with its obligations under Section 8.4(g) below.

(f)Without limiting the effect of Sections 8.4(c) and (d) above:

(i)Subject to paragraph (ii) below, a UK Treaty Lender and a UK Borrower making a payment to which that UK Treaty Lender is entitled shall co-operate in completing any procedural formalities necessary for the UK Borrower to obtain authorization to make that payment without a UK Tax Deduction.

(ii)A UK Treaty Lender which (A) is a Lender on the date of this Agreement and that holds a passport under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme, and which wishes that scheme to apply to this Agreement, shall confirm its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence opposite its name in the UK Tax Schedule; or (B) is not a Lender on the date of this Agreement and that holds a passport under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme, and which wishes that scheme to apply to this Agreement, shall confirm its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence in the relevant Assignment and Assumption; and, having done so, that Lender shall be under no obligation pursuant to paragraph (i) above.

(iii)If a UK Treaty Lender has confirmed its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence in accordance with paragraph (ii) above and (a) a UK

Borrower making a payment to that Lender has not made a UK Borrower DTTP Filing in respect of that Lender; or (b) a UK Borrower making a payment to that Lender has made a UK Borrower DTTP Filing but (1) that UK Borrower DTTP Filing has been rejected by HM Revenue & Customs, or (2) HM Revenue & Customs have not given the UK Borrower authority to make payments to that Lender without a UK Tax Deduction within 30 Business Days of the date of the UK Borrower DTTP Filing, and in each case, the UK Borrower has notified that Lender in writing, that Lender and the UK Borrower shall co-operate in completing any additional procedural formalities necessary for the UK Borrower to obtain authorization to make that payment without a UK Tax Deduction.

(iv)If a UK Treaty Lender has not confirmed its scheme reference number and jurisdiction of tax residence in accordance with paragraph (ii) above, no UK Borrower shall make a UK Borrower DTTP Filing or file any other form relating to the HM Revenue & Customs DT Treaty Passport scheme in respect of that Lender’s Loan(s) unless that Lender otherwise agrees.

(v)A UK Borrower shall, promptly on making a UK Borrower DTTP Filing, deliver a copy of that UK Borrower DTTP Filing to the Administrative Agent for delivery to the relevant UK Treaty Lender.

(vi)A UK Non-Bank Lender which becomes a party to this Agreement on the date of this Agreement gives a UK Tax Confirmation by entering into this Agreement. A UK Non-Bank Lender shall promptly notify the Company and the Administrative Agent if there is any change in the position from that set out in the UK Tax Confirmation.

(vii)Each Lender in respect of a UK Borrower which becomes a party to this Agreement after the date of this Agreement shall indicate in the Assignment and Assumption which of the following categories it falls in: (A) not a UK Qualifying Lender; (B) a UK Qualifying Lender (other than a UK Treaty Lender); or (C) a UK Treaty Lender. If a Lender fails to indicate its status in accordance with this paragraph (vii) then such Lender shall be treated for the purposes of this Agreement (including by each UK Borrower) as if it is not a UK Qualifying Lender until such time as it notifies the Administrative Agent which category applies (and the Administrative Agent, upon receipt of such notification, shall inform the Company and each UK Borrower). For the avoidance of doubt, any such Assignment and Assumption shall not be invalidated by any such failure of a Lender to comply with this paragraph (vii).

(viii)A UK Borrower shall, promptly on becoming aware that it must make a UK Tax Deduction (or that there is any change in the rate or basis of a UK Tax Deduction) notify the Administrative Agent accordingly. Similarly, a Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent on becoming so aware in respect of a payment payable to that Lender. If the Administrative Agent receives such notification from a Lender it shall promptly notify the relevant UK Borrower.

(g)If any Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has actually and finally realized, by reason of a refund or credit of any Taxes paid or reimbursed by a Borrower pursuant to Section 8.4(a) or (b) above in respect of payments under this Agreement, a current monetary benefit that it would otherwise not have obtained, and that would result in the total payments under this Section 8.4 exceeding the amount needed to make such Lender whole, such Lender shall pay to such Borrower, with reasonable promptness following the date on which it actually realizes such benefit, an amount equal to the lesser of the amount of such benefit or the amount of such excess, in

each case net of all out-of-pocket expenses in securing such refund, deduction or credit, provided, however, that a Borrower that received such refund from a Lender, upon the request of such Lender, agrees to repay to such Lender the amount paid over to such Borrower if such Lender is required to repay such refund or credit to the relevant governmental taxing authority.

(h)Each Canadian Lender confirms to the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Borrowers that it is not a non-resident of Canada for purposes of Part XIII of the Income Tax Act (Canada) in respect to any amount paid or credited to it pursuant to this Agreement and agrees to notify the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Borrowers immediately in wiring should it become a non-resident of Canada for such purposes.

(i)Each Australian Lender confirms to the Administrative Agent, the Australian Sub-Agent and the Australian Borrower that, for purposes of Australian law in respect of Taxes, either (i) it is not a non-resident of Australia, (ii) it will make all Australian Advances through an Australian permanent establishment, or (iii) it qualifies for an exemption from Australian withholding Taxes under a double tax convention or agreement in respect to any amount paid or credited to it pursuant to this Agreement and agrees to notify the Administrative Agent and the Australian Borrower immediately in writing in the event that it ceases to meet any of the foregoing conditions.

Section 1.5Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 8.3 or 8.4, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any governmental authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 8.4, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, then the Company 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 Section 10.6), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Company shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Swing Line Bank, which consents shall not unreasonably be withheld, and (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the relevant Borrower (in the case of all other amounts). A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Company to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

Section 1.6VAT.

(a)All amounts expressed to be payable under any Loan Document by any party to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender (each, for the purposes of this Section 8.6, a “Finance Party”) which (in whole or in part) constitute the consideration for any supply for VAT purposes are deemed to be exclusive of any VAT which is chargeable on that supply, and accordingly, subject to paragraph (b) below, if VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party to any party under a Loan Document and such Finance Party is required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT, that party must pay to such Finance Party (in addition to and at the same time as paying any other consideration for such supply) an amount equal to the amount of the VAT (and such Finance Party must promptly provide an appropriate VAT invoice to that party). If VAT is or becomes chargeable on any

supply made by any Finance Party (the “Supplier”) to any other Finance Party (the “Recipient”) under a Loan Document, and any party other than the Recipient (the “Relevant Party”) is required by the terms of any Loan Document to pay an amount equal to the consideration for that supply to the Supplier (rather than being required to reimburse or indemnify the Recipient in respect of that consideration): (i) where the Supplier is the Person required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT, the Relevant Party must also pay to the Supplier (at the same time as paying that amount) an additional amount equal to the amount of the VAT (and the Recipient must promptly pay to the Relevant Party an amount equal to any credit or repayment the Recipient receives from the relevant tax authority which the Recipient reasonably determines relates to the VAT chargeable on that supply); and (ii) where the Recipient is the Person required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT, the Relevant Party must promptly, following demand from the Recipient, pay to the Recipient an amount equal to the VAT chargeable on that supply but only to the extent that the Recipient reasonably determines that it is not entitled to credit or repayment from the relevant tax authority in respect of that VAT.

(b)Where a Loan Document requires any party to reimburse or indemnify a Finance Party for any cost or expense, that party shall reimburse or indemnify (as the case may be) such Finance Party for the full amount of such cost or expense, including such part thereof as represents VAT, save to the extent that such Finance Party reasonably determines that it is entitled to credit or repayment in respect of such VAT from the relevant tax authority.

(c)In relation to any supply made by a Finance Party to any party under a Loan Document, if reasonably requested by such Finance Party, that party must promptly provide such Finance Party with details of that party’s VAT registration and such other information as is reasonably requested in connection with such Finance Party’s VAT reporting requirements in relation to such supply.

(d)Any reference in this Section 8.6 to any party shall, at any time when such party is treated as a member of a group for VAT purposes, include (where appropriate and unless the context otherwise requires) a reference to the Person who is treated as making the supply or (as appropriate) receiving the supply under the grouping rules (as provided for in Article 11 of the Council Directive 2006/112/EC (or as implemented by the relevant member state of the European Union or any other similar provision in any jurisdiction which is not a member state of the European Union)).

Article 9
GUARANTY

Section 1.1The Guaranty. The Company hereby unconditionally guarantees the full and punctual payment (whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise) of each Guaranteed Obligation, as hereinafter defined, and agrees to pay all out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender (together, and with their respective successors and assigns, the “Beneficiaries”, and each individually, a “Beneficiary”) in enforcing any rights under this Guaranty. Upon failure by any Subsidiary Borrower to pay punctually any Guaranteed Obligation, the Company shall forthwith on demand pay the amount not so paid at the place and in the manner specified herein or in the instrument evidencing such Guaranteed Obligation. “Guaranteed Obligations” means (i) all principal of and interest on all Advances made pursuant to this Agreement (including, without limitation, any interest (“Post-Petition Interest”) which accrues (or which would accrue but for such case, proceeding or action) after the commencement of any case, proceeding or other action

relating to the bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of such Borrower (whether or not such interest is allowed or allowable as a claim in any such case, proceeding or other action) on all Advances made pursuant to the Credit Agreement), (ii) all other amounts payable by any Borrower from time to time pursuant to this Agreement and the Notes (including any Post-Petition Interest with respect to such amounts), and (iii) any renewals, refinancings or extensions of any of the foregoing (including Post-Petition Interest).

Section 1.2Guaranty Unconditional. The Company guarantees that the Guaranteed Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Notes, if any, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of any Lender with respect thereto. The obligations of the Company under this Guaranty shall be unconditional, irrevocable and absolute and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, shall not be released, discharged or otherwise affected by, and the Company hereby irrevocably waives any defenses it may now have or hereafter acquire in any way relating to, any or all of the following:

(a)any extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, waiver or release in respect of any obligation of any Subsidiary Borrower under this Agreement, by operation of law or otherwise;

(b)any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other obligations of any Subsidiary Borrower under or in respect of the Loan Documents, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from any Loan Document, including, without limitation, any increase in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from the extension of additional credit to any Subsidiary Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or otherwise;

(c)any taking, exchange, release, impairment, non-perfection or invalidity or unenforceability of any direct or indirect security for any obligation of any Subsidiary Borrower under the this Agreement or any taking, release, reduction of liability or amendment or waiver of, consent to departure from, failure of any other Person to execute or deliver or invalidity or unenforceability of, any other guaranty or surety for all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(d)any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of any Subsidiary Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof, or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting such Subsidiary Borrower or its assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of the Borrower contained in this Agreement;

(e)the existence of any claim, set-off or other rights which the Company may have at any time against any Subsidiary Borrower, any Beneficiary or any other entity, whether in connection herewith or with any unrelated transactions, provided that nothing herein shall prevent the assertion of any such claim by separate suit or compulsory counterclaim;

(f)any invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against any Subsidiary Borrower for any reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document to which it is a party or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit the payment by any Subsidiary Borrower of principal or interest on any Advance made, or any other amount payable, pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document to which it is a party; or

(g)any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by any Subsidiary Borrower, any Beneficiary or any other Person or any other circumstance whatsoever which might, but for the provisions of this paragraph, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of or defense to the Company’s obligations hereunder.

The obligations of the Company under or in respect of this Guaranty are independent of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other obligations of any Subsidiary Borrower under or in respect of the Loan Documents, and a separate action or actions may be brought and pursued against the Company to enforce this Guaranty, irrespective of whether any action is brought against any Subsidiary Borrower or whether any Subsidiary Borrower is joined in any such action or actions.

Section 1.3Limit of Liability. The Company shall be liable under this Guaranty only for amounts aggregating up to the largest amount that would not render its obligations hereunder subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provision of any other applicable law.

Section 1.4Discharge of Company’s Obligations; Reinstatement in Certain Circumstances. The Company’s obligations hereunder shall remain in full force and effect until the later of the termination in full of the Commitments and the date on which all the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid in full. If at any time any payment of any Guaranteed Obligation is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Subsidiary Borrower or otherwise, the Company’s obligations hereunder with respect to such payment shall be reinstated as though such payment had been due but not made at such time.

Section 1.5Waivers by the Company. (a) The Company irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest, promptness, diligence, acceleration and any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against the Company, any Subsidiary Borrower or any other Person or against any direct or indirect security for any obligation of any Subsidiary Borrower.

(a)The Company irrevocably waives any defense arising by reason of any claim or defense based upon an election of remedies by any Beneficiary that in any manner impairs, reduces, releases or otherwise adversely affects the subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification rights of the Company or other rights of the Company to proceed against any Subsidiary Borrower, any other guarantor or any other Person.

(b)The Company irrevocably waives any duty on the part of any Beneficiary to disclose to the Company any matter, fact or thing relating to the business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations, performance, properties or prospects of any Subsidiary Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries now or hereafter known by such Beneficiary.

Section 1.6Subrogation. Upon making full payment with respect to any obligation of any Subsidiary Borrower hereunder, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the payee against such Borrower with respect to such obligation; provided that the Company shall not enforce any payment by way of subrogation so long as any Guaranteed Obligation remains unpaid. The Company also shall not enforce any right of reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification it may have against any Subsidiary Borrower with respect to such obligation so long as any Guaranteed Obligation remains unpaid.

Section 1.7Stay of Acceleration. If acceleration of the time for payment of any Guaranteed Obligation is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Subsidiary Borrower, all such Guaranteed Obligations otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of the Credit Agreement shall nonetheless be payable by the Company hereunder forthwith on demand by the Beneficiaries.

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.

(d)The Administrative Agent agrees that the receipt of Communications (other than Communications consisting of notices provided under Article 2) by the Administrative Agent at oploanswebadmin@citigroup.com shall constitute effective delivery of such Communications to the Administrative Agent for purposes hereunder and any other Loan Document (and any other agreements relating thereto).

Section 1.2No Waivers. No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any Note shall operate as a

waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

Section 1.3Expenses; Indemnification; Damage Waiver. (a) The Company agrees to pay (i) all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent including fees and disbursements of special counsel for the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation and administration of this Agreement, any waiver or consent hereunder or any amendment hereof or any Default or alleged Default hereunder and (ii) if an Event of Default occurs, all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Lender, including (without duplication) the fees and disbursements of outside counsel, in connection with such Event of Default and collection, bankruptcy, insolvency and other enforcement proceedings resulting therefrom.

(a)The Company agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Lender, their respective affiliates and the respective directors, officers, agents, advisors and employees of the foregoing (each an “Indemnitee”) and hold each Indemnitee harmless from and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages, costs and expenses of any kind, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel, which may be incurred by such Indemnitee in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding (whether or not such Indemnitee shall be designated a party thereto) brought or threatened by any Person (including any Borrower) other than such Indemnitee and its Related Parties relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any actual or proposed use of proceeds of Advances hereunder; provided that (i) the Company shall not be required to pay or reimburse the legal fees and expenses of more than one outside counsel (in addition to any special counsel and up to one local counsel in each applicable local jurisdiction) for all Indemnitees in any such proceeding and, in the case of an actual, perceived or potential conflict of interest, additional outside counsel (in addition to any special counsel and up to one local counsel in each applicable local jurisdiction) for the Indemnitee or Indemnitees whose interests so conflict and (ii) no Indemnitee shall have the right to be indemnified hereunder to the extent resulting from such Indemnitee’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined in a final nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction.

(b)To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Borrower shall 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 or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, any Advance, any Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof.

Section 1.4No Liability of the Issuing Banks. Each Borrower assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee of any Letter of Credit with respect to its use of such Letter of Credit. Neither an Issuing Bank nor any of its officers or directors shall be liable or responsible for: (a) the use that may be made of any Letter of Credit or any acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee in connection therewith; (b) the validity, sufficiency or genuineness of documents, or of any endorsement thereon, even if such documents should prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, fraudulent or forged; (c) payment by such Issuing Bank against presentation of documents that do not comply with the terms of a Letter of Credit, including failure of any documents to bear any reference or adequate reference to the Letter of Credit; or (d) any other circumstances whatsoever in making or failing to make payment under any Letter of Credit, except that the applicable Borrower shall have a claim against such Issuing

Bank, and such Issuing Bank shall be liable to such Borrower, to the extent of any direct, but not consequential, damages suffered by such Borrower that such Borrower proves were caused by (i) such Issuing Bank's willful misconduct or gross negligence as determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction in determining whether documents presented under any Letter of Credit comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or (ii) such Issuing Bank's willful failure to make lawful payment under a Letter of Credit after the presentation to it of a draft and certificates strictly complying with the terms and conditions of the Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, such Issuing Bank may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary; provided that nothing herein shall be deemed to excuse such Issuing Bank if it acts with gross negligence or willful misconduct in accepting such documents as determined in a final nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction.

Section 1.5Amendments and Waivers. Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by the Company and the Required Lenders (and, if the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent are affected thereby, by the Administrative Agent); provided that (a) no such amendment or waiver shall (i) increase or decrease any Commitment of any Lender (except for a ratable decrease in such Commitments of all applicable Lenders) or subject any Lender to any additional obligation without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) reduce the principal of or rate of interest on any Advance, or any fees hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (iii) postpone the date fixed for any payment of principal of or interest on any Advance, or any fees hereunder or for the termination of the Commitments, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (iv) change the percentage of the Commitments or of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Advances, or the number of Lenders, which shall be required for the Lenders or any of them to take any action under this Section 10.5 or any other provision of this Agreement, without the written consent of each Lender, (v) reduce or limit the obligations of the Company under Section 9.1 hereof or release the Company from its obligations under Article 9 without the written consent of each Lender, (vi) waive the requirements of Section 2.1(d) to permit the expiration of a Letter of Credit to extend beyond the Termination Date, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, or (vii) amend or modify Sections 2.13 and 10.6 (a) without the written consent of each Lender, (b) any modification or supplement of Article 7 shall require the consent of the Administrative Agent, (c) any modification or supplement of the rights or duties of any Issuing Bank shall require the consent of such Issuing Bank and (d) any modification or supplement of the rights or duties of any Swing Line Bank shall require the consent of such Swing Line Bank. Notwithstanding the foregoing, technical and conforming modifications to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be made with the consent of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent to the extent necessary to integrate any Additional Currency Facility Commitments on substantially the same basis as the other Commitments; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall provide each of the Issuing Banks, the Swing Line Banks and the Lenders of prompt written notice of thereof, all in reasonable detail in respect of any such technical and conforming modifications.

Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, a Defaulting Lender shall (unless the Required Lenders, determined as if such Lender were not a “Lender” hereunder, shall otherwise consent in writing) be deemed for all purposes relating to amendments, modifications, waivers or consents under this Agreement (including, without limitation, under this Section 10.5) to have no Advances or Commitments, shall not be treated as a “Lender” hereunder when performing the computation of Required Lenders and shall have no rights under the preceding paragraph of this Section 10.5; provided that any action taken by the other Lenders

100

with respect to the matters referred to in clause (a) of the preceding paragraph shall not be effective as against such Lender without its consent.

Section 1.6Successors and Assigns. (a) 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 no Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement 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 (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (d) of this Section, or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of paragraph (f) of this Section (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 paragraph (d) of this Section 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.

(a)Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Advances 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:

(i) Minimum Amounts.

(A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and/or the Advances 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 paragraph (b)(i)(B) of this Section in the aggregate 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

(B) in any case not described in paragraph (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Advances outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Advances 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 $10,000,000 or a multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(ii) 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 Advance or the Commitment assigned, except that this clause (ii) 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.

101

(iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by paragraph (b)(i)(B) of this Section and, in addition:

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

(B) the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments in respect of any Facility if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender with a Commitment in respect of such Facility, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender; and

(C) the consent of each Issuing Bank and each Swing Line Bank (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility.

(iv) 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; provided that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

(v) No Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made to (A) the Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries or (B) 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).

(vi) No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be made to a natural Person.

(vii) 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 Company and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Advances 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 Swing Line Bank and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Advances and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Advances in accordance with its pro rata share. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable

102

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.

(viii) SPCs. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers the option to fund all or any part of any Advance that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to fund pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to fund any Advance, (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to fund all or any part of such Advance, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to fund such Advance pursuant to the terms hereof and (iii) the Borrowers may bring any proceeding against the Granting Lender or the SPC in order to enforce any rights of the Borrowers hereunder. The funding of an Advance by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Advance were funded by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or payment under this Agreement for which a Lender would otherwise be liable for so long as, and to the extent, the Granting Lender provides such indemnity or makes such payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any SPC may disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its funding of Advances to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety or guarantee to such SPC. This paragraph may not be amended without the prior written consent of each Granting Lender, all or any part of whose Advance is being funded by an SPC at the time of such amendment.

(ix) UK Borrowers. If (x) a Lender assigns all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or changes its Applicable Lending Office and (y) as a result of circumstances existing at the date of such assignment or change occurs, a UK Borrower would be obliged to make a payment to the assignee or Lender acting through its new Applicable Lending Office under Section 8.4, then the assignee or Lender acting through its new Applicable Lending Office shall only be entitled to receive such payment under Section 8.4 to the same extent as the existing Lender or Lender acting through its previous Applicable Lending Office would have been had the assignment or change not occurred.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the 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 Sections 8.3 and 10.3 with respect to 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 paragraph (d) of this Section.

103

(b)Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, 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 amounts of the Advances owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(c)Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Company, any Issuing Bank, any Swing Line Bank or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural Person or the Borrower or any of the Company’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 Advances owing to it); provided that, regardless of whether the consent of, or notice to, the Company or the Administrative Agent is given, (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 Company, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 7.8 with respect to any payments made by such Lender to its Participant(s).

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 described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of Section 10.5 that affects such Participant. The Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 8.3 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to the provisions of Article 8 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section.

Each Lender that sells a participation, acting solely for this purpose as a nonfiduciary agent of the Borrowers (and such agency being solely for tax purposes), shall maintain a register for the recordation of the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in its rights and other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participation Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participation Register to any Person (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) 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(e) of the United States Treasury Regulations.

104

(d)Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 8.3 and 8.4 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 Company’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 8.4 unless the Company is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Company, to comply with Section 8.4(d) as though it were a Lender.

(e)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 or any central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(f)Canadian Commitments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, participating interests in, and rights and obligations with respect to, Canadian Advances and Canadian Commitments may be granted or assigned only to Schedule I Banks, Schedule II Banks, Schedule III Banks or a Person established under the laws of Canada or any province or territory thereof that is authorized to carry on business in Canada pursuant to Part XII of the Bank Act (Canada).

Section 1.7Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction. This Agreement and any dispute, claim or cause of action arising out of or relating to this Agreement, whether in contract, tort or otherwise, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of New York. Each of the parties hereto 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, 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 sitting in New York County, and of the United States District Court of the Southern 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. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such proceeding brought in such a court and any claim that any such proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

Each Subsidiary Borrower hereby agrees that service of process in any action or proceeding brought in any New York State court or in federal court may be made upon the Company at its offices specified in Section 10.1, and such Subsidiary Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints the Company to give any notice of any such service of process, and agrees that the failure of the Company to give any notice of any such service shall not impair or affect the validity of such service or of any judgment rendered in any action or proceeding based thereon.

105

Section 1.8Counterparts; Integration. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. This Agreement and any Notes issued hereunder constitute the entire agreement and understanding among the parties hereto and supersedes any and all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. The words “delivery”, “execute,” “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in or related to any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement (each, a “Document”) and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, the electronic matching of assignment terms and contract formations on electronic platforms approved by the Administrative Agent, 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, physical delivery thereof 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. For the avoidance of doubt, the authorization under this Section 10.8 may include, without limitation, use or acceptance by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders of a manually signed paper Document which has been converted into electronic form (such as scanned into PDF format), or an electronically signed Document converted into another format, for transmission, delivery and/or retention. The Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders may, at its option, create one or more copies of any Document in the form of an imaged Electronic Record (“Electronic Copy”), which shall be deemed created in the ordinary course of such Person’s business, and destroy the original paper document. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent is under no obligation to agree to accept electronic signatures in any form or in any format unless expressly agreed to by the Administrative Agent pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided, without limiting the foregoing, (a) to the extent the Administrative Agent has agreed to accept such Electronic Signature, the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders shall be entitled to rely on any such Electronic Signature purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower without further verification and (b) upon the reasonable request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by such manually executed counterpart. For purposes hereof, “Electronic Record” and “Electronic Signature” shall have the meanings assigned to them, respectively, by 15 USC §7006, as it may be amended from time to time.

Section 1.9Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH BORROWER AND EACH OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE BANKS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY NOTE, THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

Section 1.10Survival. The obligations of the Borrowers under Sections 2.13, 8.3, 8.4 and 10.3, and the obligations of the Lenders under Section 7.6, shall survive the repayment of the Advances and the termination of the Commitments.

Section 1.11Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ 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

106

to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority or self-regulatory body, (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any Note or the enforcement of rights hereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section or to the consent, so long as no Event of Default is continuing, of the Company (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), to any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, (g) with the consent of the Company, (h) if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to prospective assignees of any Lender who agree to hold such information confidential, (i) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section by another party hereto or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than a Borrower, or (j) on a confidential basis to any rating agency in connection with rating the Company or its Subsidiaries or their obligations under this Agreement or any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative or credit insurance transaction relating to any Borrower or its obligations hereunder. In addition, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry and service providers to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with the administration of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and the Commitments. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Company relating to the Company or its business, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Company; provided that, in the case of information received from the Company 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.

Section 1.12USA Patriot Act. Each Lender hereby notifies each Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (title III of Pub.L.107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies such Borrower, which information includes the name and address of such Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify such Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act.

Section 1.13Designated Subsidiaries. (a) Designation. (i) The Company may, upon five Business Days prior notice, at any time, and from time to time, by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Designation Agreement duly executed by the Company and the respective Subsidiary and substantially in the form of Exhibit E hereto, designate such Subsidiary as a “Designated Subsidiary” for purposes of this Agreement and such Subsidiary shall thereupon become a “Designated Subsidiary” for purposes of this Agreement and, as such, shall have all of the rights and obligations of a Borrower hereunder; provided that if such Subsidiary is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction other than that of the United States or a political subdivision thereof, the Company shall give 15 days prior notice to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of each such designation by the Company and the identity of the respective Subsidiary. Following the giving of any notice pursuant to this Section 10.13, if the designation of such Designated Subsidiary obligates the Administrative Agent or any Lender to comply with “know your customer” or similar identification procedures in circumstances where the necessary information is not already

107

available to it (including, in the case of any Designated Subsidiary that qualifies as a “legal entity customer” under the Beneficial Ownership Regulation, a Beneficial Ownership Certification in relation to such Designated Subsidiary), the Company shall, promptly upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, supply such documentation and other evidence as is reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in order for the Administrative Agent or such Lender to carry out and be satisfied it has complied with the results of all necessary “know your customer” or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations or its internal policies.

If the Company shall designate as a Designated Subsidiary hereunder any Subsidiary not organized under the laws of the United States or any State thereof, any Lender may, with notice to the Administrative Agent and the Company, fulfill its Commitment by causing an Affiliate of such Lender to act as the Lender in respect of such Designated Subsidiary.

(ii) As soon as practicable and in any event within five Business Days after notice of the designation under Section 10.13(a)(i) of a Designated Subsidiary that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction other than of the United States or a political subdivision thereof, any Lender that may not legally lend to, or whose internal policies, consistently applied, preclude lending to, such Designated Subsidiary (a “Protesting Lender”) shall so notify the Company and the Administrative Agent in writing. With respect to each Protesting Lender, the Company shall, effective on or before the date that such Designated Subsidiary shall have the right to borrow hereunder, either (A) (i) replace such Protesting Lender in accordance with Section 8.5 or (ii) notify the Administrative Agent and such Protesting Lender that the Commitments of such Protesting Lender shall be terminated; provided that (x) the Company shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank, which consents shall not unreasonably be withheld, and (y) such Protesting Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the relevant Borrower (in the case of all other amounts), or (B) cancel its request to designate such Subsidiary as a “Designated Subsidiary” hereunder.

(a)Termination. Upon the indefeasible payment and performance in full of all of the indebtedness, liabilities and obligations under this Agreement of any Designated Subsidiary, so long as at the time no Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Issuance in respect of such Designated Subsidiary is outstanding, such Subsidiary’s status as a “Designated Subsidiary” shall terminate upon notice to such effect from the Administrative Agent to the Lenders (which notice the Administrative Agent shall give promptly, and only upon its receipt of a request therefor from the Company). Thereafter, the Lenders shall be under no further obligation to make any Advance hereunder to such Designated Subsidiary.

Section 1.14Judgment. (a) If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in US Dollars into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase US Dollars with such other currency at Citibank’s principal office in London at 11:00 A.M. (London time) on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given.

(a)If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in a Foreign Currency into US Dollars, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of

108

exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase such Foreign Currency with US Dollars at Citibank’s principal office in London at 11:00 A.M. (London time) on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given.

(b)The obligation of any Borrower in respect of any sum due from it in any currency (the “Primary Currency”) to any Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in any other currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency, such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the applicable Primary Currency with such other currency; if the amount of the applicable Primary Currency so purchased is less than such sum due to such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) in the applicable Primary Currency, each Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) against such loss, and if the amount of the applicable Primary Currency so purchased exceeds such sum due to any Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) in the applicable Primary Currency, such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) agrees to remit to such Borrower such excess.

Section 1.15Substitution of Currency. If a change in any Committed Currency occurs pursuant to any applicable law, rule or regulation of any governmental, monetary or multi-national authority, this Agreement (including, without limitation, the definition of Term Benchmark Rate) will be amended to the extent determined by the Administrative Agent (acting reasonably and in consultation with the Company) to be necessary to reflect the change in currency and to put the Lenders and the Borrowers in the same position, so far as possible, that they would have been in if no change in such Committed Currency had occurred.

Section 1.16Determinations under Section 2.15, 3.1 and 3.2. For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Section 3.1 or Section 3.2 or clause (iv)(B) of the proviso to Section 2.15, each Lender shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with each document or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to the Lenders unless an officer of the Administrative Agent responsible for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall have received notice from such Lender prior to the date that the Company, by notice to the Lenders, designates as the proposed Restatement Date, the date of the initial Advance to the applicable Designated Subsidiary or the date of the applicable Commitment Increase, as the case may be, specifying its objection thereto. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of the occurrence of the Restatement Date, each date of initial Advance to a Designated Subsidiary and each date of a Commitment Increase, as applicable.

Section 1.17No Fiduciary Duty. The Administrative Agent, each Lender and their Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes of this paragraph, the “Lenders”), may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Borrowers and/or their Affiliates (the “Borrower Entities”). Each Borrower agrees that nothing in the Loan Documents or otherwise will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Lender, on the one hand, and any Borrower Entity, on the other. The Borrowers acknowledge and agree that (i) the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Borrowers, on the other,

109

and (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto, (x) no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of any Borrower Entity with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or will advise any Borrower Entity on other matters) or any other obligation to any Borrower except the obligations expressly set forth in the Loan Documents and (y) each Lender is acting solely as principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of any Borrower Entity. Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that it has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to the Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby and the process leading thereto. Each Borrower agrees that it will not claim that any Lender has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to such Borrower, in connection with the Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby and the process leading thereto.

Section 1.18Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(a)the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and

(b)the effects of any Bail-in Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

(i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.

Section 1.19Effect of Amendment and Restatement. On the Restatement Date, all obligations of the Borrowers under the Existing Credit Agreement shall become obligations of the Borrowers hereunder, and the provisions of the Existing Credit Agreement shall be superseded by the provisions hereof. Each of the parties hereto confirms that the amendment and restatement of the Existing Credit Agreement pursuant to this Agreement shall not constitute a novation of the Existing Credit Agreement.

Section 1.20Right of Set-off. If the Termination Date has occurred (including by acceleration of the maturity of the Advances in accordance with the terms hereof) and the applicable Advances have otherwise become due and have not been paid in full, each Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable

110

law, to set-off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency, but excluding in any event deposit or other amounts held in a trustee, fiduciary, agency or similar capacity or otherwise for the benefit of a third party) at any time owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower against any and all of the obligations of such Borrower now or hereafter then due and owing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of such Borrower may be owed to a branch or office of such Lender different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided, that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (i) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.19 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 and the Lenders and (ii) 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 and its respective Affiliates under this Section 10.20 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender or its respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender agrees to notify the Company 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.

as Administrative Agent

One Penns Way, OPS 2/2
New Castle, Delaware 19720

The lenders party to the
Credit Agreement referred to
below, as listed on the Commitment Schedule
thereto (the “Lenders”)

Marsh & McLennan Companies, Inc.

US$3,500,000,000 Amended and Restated Five-Year Credit Agreement

Ladies and Gentlemen:

I am Deputy General Counsel, Corporate Secretary and Chief Compliance Officer of Marsh & McLennan Companies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and as such have acted as counsel to the Company in connection with its execution and delivery today of the Amended and Restated Five Year Credit Agreement, dated as of October 11, 2023 (the “Credit Agreement”), among the Company and Calm Treasury Holdings Limited (f/k/a MMC Treasury Holdings (UK) Limited) (“CTHL” and, together with the Company, the “Borrowers”), the Lenders and Citibank, N.A., as Administrative Agent, providing for loans to be made by the Lenders to the Borrowers in an aggregate principal amount not exceeding US$3,500,000,000 at any one time outstanding. Capitalized terms used herein without definition have the meanings assigned to them in the Credit Agreement. As used herein, the term “Loan Documents” refers, collectively, to the Credit Agreement and any Notes issued thereunder.

In connection with rendering the opinions expressed below, I or one or more attorneys acting under my general supervision (all references herein to acts taken by me include acts by one or more attorneys acting under my general supervision) have examined the Credit Agreement and the form of Notes, and originals or certified, conformed or reproduction copies of such agreements, instruments, documents and records of the Company, such certificates of public officials, and such other documents, and have made such investigations of law, as I have deemed necessary or appropriate for the purposes of such opinions. In all such examinations, I have assumed without investigation the legal capacity of all natural persons executing documents, the genuineness of all signatures on original or certified copies, the authenticity of all original or certified copies and the conformity to original or certified documents of all copies submitted to me as conformed or reproduction copies. I have relied as to factual matters upon, and have assumed the accuracy of, the statements made in certificates of officers of the Company delivered to me, the representations made in or pursuant to the Credit Agreement, and certificates and other statements or information of or from public officials and officers and representatives of the Company and others. I have also assumed that each party to the Loan Documents (other than the Company, to the extent set forth in the opinions below) (i) is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, (ii) has the requisite power and authority to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under, each of the

Exhibit C

Page 1

Loan Documents to which it is a party, (iii) has duly and validly authorized its execution and delivery of, and the performance of its obligations under, each of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and (iv) has duly and validly executed and delivered each of the Loan Documents to which it is a party. I have further assumed that the execution, delivery and performance by each Borrower (other than the Company, to the extent set forth in the opinions below) of the Loan Documents to which it is a party does not (i) violate any provision of such Borrower’s certificate of incorporation, by-laws or other organizational documents, (ii) except with respect to any existing United States Federal or New York State law, statute, rule or regulation, does not violate any law, statute, rule or regulation applicable to such Borrower or (iii) result in a breach of, constitute a default under, or require any consent under, any contract, agreement or instrument binding upon such Borrower. I have further assumed that the Loan Documents constitute the valid and binding obligations of each party to the Loan Documents (other than the Borrowers), enforceable against such party in accordance with their respective terms.

Based on the foregoing, and subject to the limitations, qualifications and assumptions set forth herein, I am of the opinion that:

1.The Company has been duly incorporated and is validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware.

2.The Company has the corporate power and authority to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under, the Credit Agreement and the Notes, if any, and to borrow under the Credit Agreement as provided therein.

3.The execution and delivery by the Company of, and the performance by the Company of its obligations under, the Credit Agreement and the Notes, if any, and the Company’s borrowings under the Credit Agreement, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company, and do not: (i) violate (A) any provision of the amended and restated certificate of incorporation or the amended and restated by-laws of the Company, (B) any existing order, judgment, injunction or decree of any United States Federal or New York State court or governmental agency or body known to me to be binding upon the Company or (C) any existing United States Federal or New York State law, statute, rule or regulation; (ii) result in a breach of, constitute a default under, require any consent under, or result in the acceleration or required prepayment of any indebtedness pursuant to the terms of, any Applicable Contract; or (iii) result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any property of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of any Applicable Contract. “Applicable Contracts” means those agreements or instruments identified as Exhibits 4.1, 4.2 and 4.4 through 4.18 to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

4. The Credit Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Company and constitutes the valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms.

5. The Credit Agreement constitutes the valid and binding obligation of CTHL.

6. To my knowledge, there is no pending or overtly threatened in writing action, suit or proceeding against the Company before any arbitrator, court or other governmental body, agency or official that (i) draws into question the validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement or (ii) (except as otherwise disclosed in writing to the Lenders prior to the date hereof, and except for any Specified Claim) if determined

Exhibit C

Page 2

adversely to the Company, would reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect the business, consolidated financial position or consolidated results of operations of the Company and its Consolidated Subsidiaries, considered as a whole.

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

(a) I am a member of the Bar of the State of New York. The opinions expressed above are limited to the laws of the State of New York, the Federal laws of the United States of America and the Delaware General Corporation Law, in each case as currently in effect.

(b) In rendering the opinion expressed in paragraph 3 above, I have assumed that borrowings by the Borrowers under the Credit Agreement do not cause the Company to exceed any limitations established by its Board of Directors with respect to the Company’s permitted aggregate borrowings.

(c) The opinions expressed above are subject to the effects of (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer, reorganization and moratorium laws, and other similar laws relating to or affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights or remedies generally, (ii) general principles of equity (whether such principles are considered in a proceeding at law or equity), including, without limitation, concepts of good faith, reasonableness and fair dealing, and standards of materiality, and (iii) possible judicial action giving effect to foreign laws or foreign governmental or judicial actions affecting or relating to the rights or remedies of creditors.

(d) For purposes of the opinions expressed above, I have considered, and express an opinion with respect to, only those laws, statutes, rules and regulations that in my experience are normally applicable to transactions of the type contemplated by the Credit Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, I express no opinion with respect to any law, statute, rule or regulation that is applicable to the Borrowers, the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby solely because such law, statute, rule or regulation is part of a regulatory regime applicable to any party to any of the Loan Documents or any of its affiliates (other than the Company) due to the specific assets or business of such party or such affiliate.

(e) I express no opinion as to the validity, binding effect or enforceability of any provision of any Loan Document that purports to (i) grant rights to exculpation, indemnification or contribution, (ii) provide indemnity against loss in converting into a specified currency the proceeds or amount of a court judgment in another currency or (iii) authorize or permit any purchaser of a participation interest from any party to set off or apply any deposit, property or indebtedness with respect to any participation. I express no opinion concerning whether a United States Federal court would accept jurisdiction to adjudicate any dispute, action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document or the transactions contemplated thereby. I express no opinion as to the effect of, or compliance with, any United States Federal or state securities laws, rules or regulations. I express no opinion with respect to Section 7.11 and 10.18 of the Credit Agreement.

I am delivering this letter to you at the request of the Company pursuant to Section 3.1(a) of the Credit Agreement, in my capacity as Deputy General Counsel of the Company. I assume no obligation to supplement this letter after the date hereof. This letter is solely for your benefit

and may not be relied upon in any manner or for any purpose by any other person, provided that any Assignee that becomes a Lender pursuant to Section 10.6(b) of the Credit Agreement may rely on this opinion as if it were addressed to such Assignee and delivered on the date hereof. This letter may not be quoted or disclosed in whole or in part without my prior written consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this letter may be disclosed to, but not relied upon by, your auditors and bank examiners in connection with their audit and examination functions; provided that such Person agrees that I do not assume any duty or liability to such Person and that such Person shall not further disclose this opinion letter.

OPINION OF SPECIAL COUNSEL FOR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

FORM OF OPINION OF SHEARMAN & STERLING LLP, SPECIAL COUNSEL FOR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

October 11, 2023

To the Lenders party to the Credit
Agreement referred to below and to
Citibank, N.A., as Administrative Agent

Marsh & McLennan Companies, Inc.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel to Citibank, N.A., as Administrative Agent (the “Agent”), in connection with the Amended and Restated 5 Year Credit Agreement, dated as of October 11, 2023 (the “Credit Agreement”), among Marsh & McLennan Companies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), the other borrowers parties thereto (collectively with the Company, the “Borrowers”) and each of you. Unless otherwise defined herein, terms defined in the Credit Agreement are used herein as therein defined.

In that connection, we have reviewed originals or copies of the following documents:

(a) The Credit Agreement.

(b) The Notes executed by the Borrowers and delivered on the date hereof.

The documents described in the foregoing clauses (a) and (b) are collectively referred to herein as the “Opinion Documents.”

We have also reviewed originals or copies of such other agreements and documents as we have deemed necessary as a basis for the opinion expressed below.

In our review of the Opinion Documents and other documents, we have assumed:

(A) The genuineness of all signatures.

(B) The authenticity of the originals of the documents submitted to us.

(D) As to matters of fact, the truthfulness of the representations made in the Credit Agreement.

Exhibit D

Page 1

#97358727v4

(E) That each of the Opinion Documents is the legal, valid and binding obligation of each party thereto, other than the Borrowers, enforceable against each such party in accordance with its terms.

(F) That:

(1) Each Borrower is an entity duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization.

(2) Each Borrower has full power to execute, deliver and perform, and has duly executed and delivered, the Opinion Documents to which it is a party.

(3) The execution, delivery and performance by each Borrower of the Opinion Documents to which it is a party have been duly authorized by all necessary action (corporate or otherwise) and do not:

(a)contravene its certificate or articles of incorporation, by-laws or other organizational documents;

(b)except with respect to Generally Applicable Law, violate any law, rule or regulation applicable to it; or

(c)result in any conflict with or breach of any agreement or document binding on it of which any addressee hereof has knowledge, has received notice or has reason to know.

(4) Except with respect to Generally Applicable Law, no authorization, approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body or (to the extent the same is required under any agreement or document binding on it of which an addressee hereof has knowledge, has received notice or has reason to know) any other third party is required for the due execution, delivery or performance by any Borrower of any Opinion Document to which it is a party or, if any such authorization, approval, action, notice or filing is required, it has been duly obtained, taken, given or made and is in full force and effect.

We have not independently established the validity of the foregoing assumptions.

“Generally Applicable Law” means the federal law of the United States of America, and the law of the State of New York (including the rules or regulations promulgated thereunder or pursuant thereto), that a New York lawyer exercising customary professional diligence would reasonably be expected to recognize as being applicable to the Borrowers, the Opinion Documents or the transactions governed by the Opinion Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing definition of Generally Applicable Law, the term “Generally Applicable Law” does not include any law, rule or regulation that is applicable to the Borrowers, the Opinion Documents or such transactions solely because such law, rule or regulation is part of a regulatory regime applicable to any party to any of the Opinion Documents or any of its affiliates due to the specific assets or business of such party or such affiliate.

Based upon the foregoing and upon such other investigation as we have deemed necessary and subject to the qualifications set forth below, we are of the opinion that each

Exhibit D

Page 2

Opinion Document is the legal, valid and binding obligation of each Borrower that is a party thereto, enforceable against such Borrower in accordance with its terms.

Our opinion expressed above is subject to the following qualifications:

(a) Our opinion is subject to (i) the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally (including without limitation all laws relating to fraudulent transfers) and (ii) possible judicial action giving effect to governmental actions or foreign laws affecting creditors’ rights.

(b) Our opinion is subject to the effect of general principles of equity, including without limitation concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing (regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

(c) We express no opinion with respect to the enforceability of indemnification provisions, or of release or exculpation provisions, contained in the Opinion Documents to the extent that enforcement thereof is contrary to public policy regarding the indemnification against or release or exculpation of criminal violations, intentional harm or violations of securities laws.

(d) We express no opinion with respect to the enforceability of any indemnity against loss in converting into a specified currency the proceeds or amount of a court judgment in another currency.

(e) We express no opinion with respect to Section 10.7 of the Credit Agreement to the extent that such Section (i) implies that a federal court of the United States has subject matter jurisdiction or (ii) purports to grant any court exclusive jurisdiction.

(f) We express no opinion as to whether inclusion of the bail-in clause in Section 10.18 of the Credit Agreement or any Bail-In Action under it will be given effect.

(f) Our opinion is limited to Generally Applicable Law.

A copy of this opinion letter may be delivered by any of you to any person that becomes a Lender in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement. Any such person may rely on the opinion expressed above as if this opinion letter were addressed and delivered to such person on the date hereof.

This opinion letter is rendered to you in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Opinion Documents. This opinion letter may not be relied upon by you or any person entitled to rely on this opinion pursuant to the preceding paragraph for any other purpose without our prior written consent.

This opinion letter is technical in nature and should be relied on only with the advice of attorneys as to its application. Its conclusions refer only to the circumstances that exist when given and as of the date hereof. We expressly disclaim any responsibility to advise you of any development or circumstance of any kind, including any change of law or fact, that may occur after the date of this opinion letter that might affect the opinion expressed herein.

Very truly yours,
