Currency Equivalents Generally

For purposes of determining compliance with Sections 7.01, 7.03 and 7.06 with respect to any amount of Indebtedness or Investment in a currency other than Dollars, no Default shall be deemed to have occurred solely as a result of changes in rates of exchange occurring after the time such Lien, Indebtedness or Investment is incurred; provided, that for the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing provisions of this Section 1.08 shall otherwise apply to such Sections, including with respect to determining whether any Indebtedness or Investment may be incurred at any time under such Sections.

For purposes of determining compliance under 7.05 and 7.06, any amount in a currency other than Dollars will be converted to Dollars in a manner consistent with that used in calculating net income in the Borrower’s annual financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 6.01(a); provided, that the foregoing shall not be deemed to apply to the determination of any amount of Indebtedness.

For purposes of determining compliance with any restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness, the Dollar Equivalent of the principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the Exchange Rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was incurred, in the case of term debt, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit debt; provided, that if such Indebtedness is incurred to extend, replace, refund, refinance, renew or defease other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such extension, replacement, refunding, refinancing, renewal or defeasance would cause the applicable restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such extension, replacement, refunding, refinancing, renewal or defeasance, such restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal

#96808608v5

amount of such Indebtedness being extended, replaced, refunded, refinanced, renewed or defeased.

Certain Calculations and Tests

When calculating the availability under any basket or ratio under this Agreement or compliance at any time following the Conversion Date with any provision of this Agreement in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction and any actions or transactions related thereto (including acquisitions, Investments, the incurrence, issuance or assumption of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof, the incurrence or creation of Liens, repayments, Restricted Payments and Asset Dispositions), in each case, at the option of the Borrower (the Borrower’s election to exercise such option, an “LCT Election”), the date of determination for availability under any such basket or ratio and whether any such action or transaction is permitted (or any requirement or condition therefor is complied with or satisfied (including as to the absence of any continuing Default or Event of Default)) under this Agreement shall be deemed to be the date occurring at any time following the Conversion Date (the “LCT Test Date”) either (a) the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is entered into (or, if applicable, the date of delivery of an irrevocable declaration of a Restricted Payment or similar event), or (b) solely in connection with an acquisition to which the United Kingdom City Code on Takeovers and Mergers applies, the date on which a “Rule 2.7 announcement” of a firm intention to make an offer (or equivalent announcement in another jurisdiction) (an “LCT Public Offer”) in respect of a target of a Limited Condition Transaction and, in each case, if, after giving pro forma effect to the Limited Condition Transaction and any actions or transactions related thereto (including acquisitions, Investments, the incurrence, issuance or assumption of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof, the incurrence or creation of Liens, repayments, Restricted Payments and Asset Dispositions) and any related pro forma adjustments, the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries would have been permitted to take such actions or consummate such transactions on the relevant LCT Test Date in compliance with such ratio, test or basket (and any related requirements and conditions), such ratio, test or basket (and any related requirements and conditions) shall be deemed to have been complied with (or satisfied) for all purposes (in the case of Indebtedness, for example, whether such Indebtedness is committed, issued, assumed or incurred at the LCT Test Date or at any time thereafter); provided, that (a) if financial statements for one or more subsequent fiscal quarters shall have become available, the Borrower may elect, in its sole discretion, to redetermine all such ratios, tests or baskets on the basis of such financial statements, in which case, such date of redetermination shall thereafter be the applicable LCT Test Date for purposes of such ratios, tests or baskets, and (b) except as contemplated in the foregoing clause (a), compliance with such ratios, test or baskets (and any related requirements and conditions) shall not be determined or tested at any time after the applicable LCT Test Date for such Limited Condition Transaction and any actions or transaction related thereto (including acquisitions, Investments, the incurrence, issuance or assumption of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof, the incurrence or creation of Liens, repayments, Restricted Payments and Asset Dispositions).

For the avoidance of doubt, if the Borrower has made an LCT Election, (1) if any of the ratios, tests or baskets for which compliance was determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date would at any time after the LCT Test Date have been exceeded or otherwise failed to have been complied with as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio, test or

#96808608v5

basket, including due to fluctuations in Consolidated EBITDA or Total Assets of the Borrower or the Person subject to such Limited Condition Transaction, such baskets, tests or ratios will not be deemed to have been exceeded or failed to have been complied with as a result of such fluctuations; (2) if any related requirements and conditions (including as to the absence of any continuing Default or Event of Default) for which compliance or satisfaction was determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date would at any time after the LCT Test Date not have been complied with or satisfied (including due to the occurrence or continuation of an Default or Event of Default), such requirements and conditions will not be deemed to have been failed to be complied with or satisfied (and such Default or Event of Default shall be deemed not to have occurred or be continuing); and (3) in calculating the availability under any ratio, test or basket in connection with any action or transaction unrelated to such Limited Condition Transaction following the relevant LCT Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or the date that the definitive agreement or date for redemption, purchase or repayment specified in an irrevocable notice for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated, expires or passes (or, if applicable, the irrevocable notice is terminated, expires or passes or, as applicable, the offer in respect of an LCT Public Offer for, such acquisition is terminated), as applicable, without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, any such ratio, test or basket shall be determined or tested giving pro forma effect to such Limited Condition Transaction.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event an item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) is incurred or issued, any Lien is incurred or other transaction is undertaken in reliance on any ratio based exceptions, thresholds and baskets, such ratio(s) shall be calculated with respect to such incurrence, issuance or other transaction without giving effect to amounts being utilized under any other exceptions, thresholds or baskets under the same covenant (other than ratio based-baskets) on the same date. Each item of Indebtedness that is incurred or issued, each Lien incurred and each other transaction undertaken will be deemed to have been incurred, issued or taken first, to the extent available, pursuant to the relevant ratio-based test.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (i) in the event an item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) is incurred or issued, any Lien is incurred or other transaction is undertaken in reliance on any ratio based exceptions, thresholds and baskets, such ratio(s) shall be calculated without regard to the incurrence of any Revolving Credit Loan or Letter of Credit Incurred or issued, as applicable, immediately prior to or in connection therewith; and (ii) any calculation or measure that is determined with reference to the Borrower’s financial statements (including Consolidated EBITDA, Consolidated Interest Expense, Consolidated Net Income, Fixed Charges, Consolidated First Lien Secured Leverage Ratio, and Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio) may be determined with reference to the financial statements of a Parent Entity delivered in accordance with the requirements set forth in the penultimate paragraph of Section 6.01.

For purposes of making the computations referred to above, any Investments, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers, amalgamations, consolidations, operational changes, business expansions and disposed or discontinued operations that have been made by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, during the reference period or subsequent to the reference period and on or prior to or simultaneously with the date of such computation shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming that all such Investments,

#96808608v5

acquisitions, dispositions, mergers, amalgamations, consolidations, operational changes, business expansions and disposed or discontinued operations (and the change in any associated fixed charge obligations and the change in Consolidated EBITDA resulting therefrom) had occurred on the first day of the reference period. If since the beginning of such period any Person that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged or amalgamated with or into the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries since the beginning of such period shall have made any Investment, acquisition, disposition, merger, amalgamation, consolidation, operational change, business expansion or disposed or discontinued operation that would have required adjustment pursuant to this definition, then the applicable computations shall be calculated giving pro forma effect thereto for such period as if such Investment, acquisition, disposition, merger, amalgamation, consolidation or disposed operation had occurred at the beginning of the applicable reference period. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Borrower undertakes the Staggered Emergence, then the computation for so long as a Designated Entity is not a Restricted Subsidiary shall be calculated as if such Designated Entity had been disposed of at the beginning of the reference period.

For purposes of this Agreement, whenever pro forma effect is to be given to a transaction (including the Transactions), the pro forma calculations shall be made in good faith by a responsible financial or chief accounting officer of the Borrower (and may include, for the avoidance of doubt, cost savings, operating expense reductions and synergies resulting from such transaction which is being given pro forma effect. If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect), the interest on such Indebtedness shall be calculated as if the rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was incurred had been the applicable rate for the reference period (taking into account any Hedging Obligations applicable to such Indebtedness). Interest on a Capitalized Lease Obligation shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate reasonably determined by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Borrower to be the rate of interest implicit in such Capitalized Lease Obligation in accordance with GAAP. For purposes of making the computations referred to in the preceding paragraphs, interest on any Indebtedness under a revolving credit facility computed with a pro forma basis shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during the reference period except as set forth in the first paragraph of this definition. Interest on Indebtedness that may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime or similar rate, a eurocurrency interbank offered rate, or other rate, shall be determined to have been based upon the rate actually chosen, or if none, then based upon such optional rate chosen as the Borrower may designate.

Interest Rates; Eurocurrency Notification

. The interest rate on Eurocurrency Rate Loans is determined by reference to the LIBO Rate, which is derived from the London interbank offered rate (“LIBOR”). LIBOR is intended to represent the rate at which contributing banks may obtain short-term borrowings from each other in the London interbank market. On March 5, 2021, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) publicly announced that: (a) immediately after December 31, 2021, publication of all seven euro LIBOR settings, all seven Swiss Franc LIBOR settings, the spot next, 1-week, 2-month and 12-month Japanese Yen LIBOR settings, the overnight, 1-week, 2-month and 12-month British Pound Sterling LIBOR settings, and the 1-week and 2-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings will permanently cease; immediately after June 30, 2023, publication of the overnight and 12-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR

#96808608v5

settings will permanently cease; immediately after December 31, 2021, the 1-month, 3-month and 6-month Japanese Yen LIBOR settings and the 1-month, 3-month and 6-month British Pound Sterling LIBOR settings will cease to be provided or, subject to consultation by the FCA, be provided on a changed methodology (or “synthetic”) basis and no longer be representative of the underlying market and economic reality they are intended to measure and that representativeness will not be restored; and immediately after June 30, 2023, the 1-month, 3-month and 6-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings will cease to be provided or, subject to the FCA’s consideration of the case, be provided on a synthetic basis and no longer be representative of the underlying market and economic reality they are intended to measure and that representativeness will not be restored. There is no assurance that dates announced by the FCA will not change or that the administrator of LIBOR and/or regulators will not take further action that could impact the availability, composition, or characteristics of LIBOR or the currencies and/or tenors for which LIBOR is published. Each party to this agreement should consult its own advisors to stay informed of any such developments. Public and private sector industry initiatives are currently underway to identify new or alternative reference rates to be used in place of LIBORa Loan denominated in Dollars may be derived from an interest rate benchmark that may be discontinued or is, or may in the future become, the subject of regulatory reform. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, Section 3.02(b) and (c) provide theprovides a mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest. TheWithout limiting the limitation of liability provisions in Section 9.03 or 10.05 or the express obligations of the Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower, pursuant to Section 3.02(e), of any change to the reference rate upon which the interest rate on Eurocurrency Rate Loans is based. Howeverset forth in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission, performance or any other matter related to LIBOR or other rates in the definition of “LIBO Rate”any interest rate used in this Agreement, or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof (including, without limitation, (i) any such alternative, successor or replacement rate implemented pursuant to Section 3.02(b) or (c), whether upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, and (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes pursuant to Section 3.02(d)),, including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the LIBO Rateexisting interest rate being replaced or have the same volume or liquidity as did the London interbank offeredany existing interest rate prior to its discontinuance or unavailability other than, in each case, to the extent of the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision. Nothing in this Section shall constitute a representation or warranty by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries nor can it constitute the basis of any Default or Event of Default.. The Administrative Agent and its affiliates and/or other related entities may engage in transactions unrelated to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that affect the calculation of any interest rate used in this Agreement or any alternative, successor or alternative rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) and/or any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Borrower. The Administrative Agent may select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain any interest rate used in this Agreement, any component thereof, or rates referenced in the definition thereof, in each case

#96808608v5

pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to the Borrower, any Lender or any other person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or calculation of any such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service.

Divisions

. For all purposes under the Loan Documents, in connection with any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right, obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized and acquired on the first date of its existence by the holders of its equity interests at such time.

Each telephonic notice by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.02(a) must be confirmed promptly by hand delivery, telecopy or electronic transmission to the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, of a written Committed Loan Notice, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower. Each Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans or Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of the Borrowing Minimum or a whole multiple of the Borrowing Multiple in excess thereof. Except as provided in Section 2.03(c), each Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of the Borrowing Minimum or a whole multiple of the Borrowing Multiple in excess thereof. Each Committed Loan Notice (whether telephonic or written) shall specify (i) whether the Borrower is requesting a Term

#96808608v5

Borrowing, a Revolving Credit Borrowing, a conversion of Loans from one Type to the other, or a continuation of EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans or Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans, (ii) the requested date of the Borrowing, conversion or continuation, as the case may be (which shall be a Business Day), (iii) the Class, currency and principal amount of Loans to be borrowed, converted or continued, provided that notwithstanding anything to the contrary, until the Maturity Date of the Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Facility, each Revolving Credit Borrowing shall consist of both Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Loans and Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Loans ratably based on the respective amounts of Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Commitments and Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect, (iv) the Type of Loans to be borrowed or to which existing Loans are to be converted, (v) if applicable, the duration of the Interest Period with respect thereto and (vi) the location and number of the Borrower’s account to which funds are to be disbursed, which shall comply with the requirements of Section 2.02(b). If the Borrower fails to specify a Type of Loan in a Committed Loan Notice or fails to give a timely notice requesting a conversion or continuation, then (i) the applicable Base Rate Loans shall be continued as Base Rate Loans, (ii) the applicable EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans shall be continued as, or converted to, EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans with an Interest Period of one (1) month and (iii) the applicable Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans shall be continued as, or converted to, Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans with an Interest Period of one (1) month. Any such automatic conversion or continuation shall be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the applicable EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans or Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans, as applicable. If the Borrower requests a Borrowing of, conversion to, or continuation of EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans or Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans in any such Committed Loan Notice, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one (1) month. For the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower and Lenders acknowledge and agree that any conversion or continuation of an existing Loan shall be deemed to be a continuation of that Loan with a converted interest rate methodology and not a new Loan.

Following receipt of a Committed Loan Notice, the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, shall promptly notify each Appropriate Lender of the amount of its Applicable Percentage of the applicable Class of Loans, and if no timely notice of a conversion or continuation is provided by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, shall notify each Appropriate Lender of the details of any automatic conversion or continuation described in Section 2.02(a). In the case of each Borrowing, each Appropriate Lender shall make (or cause its Applicable Lending Office to make) the amount of its Loan available to the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, by wire transfer in immediately available funds at the applicable Agent’s Office not later than 1:00 p.m., Local Time on the Business Day specified in the applicable Committed Loan Notice. Upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 4.03 (and, if such Borrowing is the initial Credit Extension, Section 4.01), the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, shall make all funds so received available to the Borrower designated in the Committed Loan Notice in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, either by (i) crediting the account of the Borrower maintained with the Administrative

#96808608v5

Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, and designated by the Borrower in the Committed Loan Notice with the amount of such funds or (ii) wire transfer of such funds, in each case in accordance with instructions provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, by the Borrower; provided that if, on the date the Committed Loan Notice with respect to such Borrowing is given by the Borrower, there are L/C Borrowings outstanding, then the proceeds of such Borrowing shall be applied first, to the payment in full of any such L/C Borrowings and second, to the Borrower as provided above.

Except as otherwise provided herein, a Eurocurrencyan Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loan or Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loan may be continued or converted only on the last day of an Interest Period for such EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loan or Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loan unless the Borrower pay the amount due, if any, under Section 3.04 in connection therewith. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and, the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders (or, solely with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility or any Revolver Event of Default, the Revolver Agent at the request of the Required Revolving Credit Facility Lenders), so notifies the Borrower, then so long as such Event of Default is continuing: (i) no Loans may be converted to or continued as EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans or Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rates, (ii) no outstanding Loans may be continued for an Interest Period of more than one month’s duration and (iii) unless repaid, each EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loan and Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loan shall be converted to a Base Rate Loan at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period for EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans upon determination of such interest rate. The determination of the EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The Revolver Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Revolving Credit Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period for Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans upon determination of such interest rate. The determination of the Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate by the Revolver Agent shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

Anything in clauses (a) to (d) above to the contrary notwithstanding, after giving effect to all Term Borrowings and Revolving Credit Borrowings, all conversions of Term Loans and Revolving Credit Loans from one Type to the other, and all continuations of Term Loans and Revolving Credit Loans as the same Type, there shall not be more than fifteen (15) Interest Periods in effect at any time for all Borrowings of EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans or Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans.

Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Term Loans shall at all times be EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans prior to

#96808608v5

the Closing Date and may not be converted to Base Rate Loans until the Closing Date has occurred.

Letters of Credit

The Letter of Credit Commitments.

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (1) each L/C Issuer agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Revolving Credit Lenders set forth in this Section 2.03, (x) from time to time on any Business Day during the Availability Period for the Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Facility (in the case such L/C Issuer is a Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender) or the Availability Period for the Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Facility (in the case such L/C Issuer is a Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lender), to issue Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars for the account of the Borrower (provided that any Letter of Credit may be for the benefit of any Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower so long as (x) the Borrower is a joint and several co-applicant and co-obligor in respect of such Letter of Credit and (y) such L/C Issuer has completed its customary “know your client” procedures with respect to such Restricted Subsidiary; provided that each notice requesting the issuance of such Letter of Credit and each letter of credit application in respect thereof shall be deemed by a representation and warranty by the Borrower that such Subsidiary is a Restricted Subsidiary) and to amend or renew Letters of Credit previously issued by it, in accordance with Section 2.03(b), and (y) to honor drafts under the Letters of Credit and (2) the Revolving Credit Lenders severally agree to participate in Letters of Credit issued pursuant to this Section 2.03; provided that no L/C Issuer shall be obligated to make any L/C Credit Extension with respect to any Letter of Credit, and, except in the case of the following clause (w), no Lender shall be obligated to participate in any Letter of Credit if immediately after giving effect to such L/C Credit Extension, (w) the aggregate L/C Exposure in respect of Letters of Credit issued by such L/C Issuer would exceed such L/C Issuer’s L/C Issuer Sublimit, (x) the aggregate L/C Exposure would exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit or (y) the Revolving Credit Exposure of any Lender would exceed such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower’s ability to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and accordingly the Borrower may, during the foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit that have expired or that have been drawn upon and reimbursed. On the Conversion Date, any Letters of Credit that were issued under (and as defined in) the DIP Revolving Credit Agreement prior to the Conversion Date and then outstanding shall be deemed issued under the Revolving Credit Facility hereunder for the account of the Borrower or any applicable Restricted Subsidiary for all purposes under this Agreement without need for any further action by the Borrower or any other Person, and shall be governed by the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

An L/C Issuer shall be under no obligation to issue any Letter of Credit (and, in the case of clauses (B) and (C), shall not 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 L/C Issuer from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Law applicable to such L/C Issuer or any directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such L/C Issuer shall prohibit, or direct that such L/C Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such L/C Issuer with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such L/C Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon such L/C

#96808608v5

Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date (for which such L/C Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder);

subject to Section 2.03(b)(iii), the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur more than twelve months after the date of issuance or last renewal, unless the relevant L/C Issuer has approved such expiry date;

the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, unless the relevant L/C Issuer has approved such expiry date (it being understood that the participations of the Revolving Credit Lenders in any undrawn Letter of Credit shall in any event terminate on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date);

the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate any Laws binding upon such L/C Issuer;

the Letter of Credit is to be denominated in a currency other than Dollars unless otherwise agreed by the applicable L/C Issuer and the Revolver Agent;

the Letter of Credit is in an initial amount less than the Dollar Equivalent of $100,000;

the face amount of such Letter of Credit (together with all other Letters of Credit issued by such L/C Issuer and outstanding at such time) shall exceed the L/C Issuer Sublimit applicable to such L/C Issuer; or

(i) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of such Issuing Bank now or hereafter applicable to letters of credit generally or (ii) such Letter of Credit is not a standby letter of credit.

An L/C Issuer shall be under no obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if (A) such L/C Issuer would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (B) the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to such Letter of Credit.

Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit; Auto Renewal Letters of Credit.

Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of the Borrower hand delivered or telecopied (or transmitted by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the L/C Issuer) to the L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Revolver Agent) in the form of a Letter of Credit Application, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower. Such Letter of Credit Application must be received by the relevant L/C Issuer and the Revolver Agent not later than 1:00 p.m., Local Time, at least three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be; or, in each case, such later date and time as the relevant L/C Issuer may agree in a particular instance in its sole discretion. In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the relevant L/C Issuer: (a) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (b) the amount and currency thereof; (c) the expiry date thereof; (d) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (e) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (f) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; and (g)

#96808608v5

such other matters as the relevant L/C Issuer may reasonably request. If requested by the L/C Issuer, the Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on the L/C Issuer’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the relevant L/C Issuer (1) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (2) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (3) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (4) such other matters as the relevant L/C Issuer may reasonably request.

Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the relevant L/C Issuer will confirm with the Revolver Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Revolver Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application from the Borrower and, if not, such L/C Issuer will provide the Revolver Agent with a copy thereof. Upon receipt by the relevant L/C Issuer of confirmation from the Revolver Agent that the requested issuance or amendment is permitted in accordance with the terms hereof, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, such L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the Borrower (provided that any Letter of Credit may be for the benefit of any Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower so long as (x) the Borrower is a joint and several co-applicant and co-obligor in respect of such Letter of Credit and (y) such L/C Issuer has completed its customary “know your client” procedures with respect to such Restricted Subsidiary; provided that each notice requesting the issuance of such Letter of Credit and each letter of credit application in respect thereof shall be deemed by a representation and warranty by the Borrower that such Subsidiary is a Restricted Subsidiary) or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, acquire from the relevant L/C Issuer a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Applicable Percentage times the amount of such Letter of Credit; provided that upon the occurrence of the Maturity Date with respect to the Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Facility, any such risk participation of any Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender shall cease to be in effect with respect to such Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender, which risk participation shall be automatially reallocated to the Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lenders in accordance with their respective Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Commitments.

With respect to standby Letters of Credit only, if the Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the relevant L/C Issuer shall agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic renewal provisions (each, an “Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit must permit the relevant L/C Issuer to prevent any such renewal at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Nonrenewal Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the relevant L/C Issuer, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the relevant L/C Issuer for any such renewal. Once an Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit has been issued, the applicable Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the relevant L/C Issuer to permit the renewal of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the Letter of Credit Expiration

#96808608v5

Date; provided that the relevant L/C Issuer shall not permit any such renewal if (A) the relevant L/C Issuer has determined that it would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its renewed form under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of Section 2.03(a)(ii) or otherwise), or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone, followed promptly in writing, or in writing) on or before the day that is five (5) Business Days before the Nonrenewal Notice Date from the Revolver Agent or any Revolving Credit Lender, as applicable, or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.02 is not then satisfied.

Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the relevant L/C Issuer will also deliver to the Borrower and the Revolver Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment.

Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations.

Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the relevant L/C Issuer shall notify promptly the Borrower and the Revolver Agent thereof. On the Business Day immediately following the Business Day on which the Borrower shall have received notice of any payment by an L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit (or, if the Borrower shall have received such notice later than 1:00 p.m. on any Business Day, on the second succeeding Business Day) (such date of payment, an “Honor Date”), the Borrower shall reimburse such L/C Issuer through the Revolver Agent in Dollars in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such drawing using the Exchange Rate in relation to Dollars in effect on the Honor Date. If the Borrower fails to so reimburse such L/C Issuer on the Honor Date (or if any such reimbursement payment is required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason), then, in the case of each L/C Borrowing, the Revolver Agent shall promptly notify the applicable L/C Issuer and each Appropriate Lender of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing in Dollars (the “Unreimbursed Amount”), and the amount of such Appropriate Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. In the event that the Borrower does not reimburse the L/C Issuer on the Business Day following the date it receives notice of the Honor Date (or, if the Borrower shall have received such notice later than 1:00 p.m. on any Business Day, on the second succeeding Business Day), the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Revolving Credit Borrowing denominated in Dollars of Base Rate Loans to be disbursed on such date in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.02 for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans but subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Revolving Credit Commitments, and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (other than the delivery of a Committed Loan Notice); provided that (x) prior to the Maturity Date with respect to the Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Facility, each such Revolving Credit Borrowing shall consist of both Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Loans and Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Loans ratably based on the respective amounts of Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Commitments and Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect and (y) on and after the Maturity Date with respect to the Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Facility, each such Revolving Credit Borrowing shall consist of only Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Loans. Any notice given by an L/C Issuer or the Revolver Agent pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)(i) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

#96808608v5

For the avoidance of doubt, if any drawing occurs under a Letter of Credit and such drawing is not reimbursed on the same day, such drawing shall, without duplication, accrue interest at the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans under the Revolving Credit Facility until the date of reimbursement.

Each Revolving Credit Lender (including any such Lender acting as an L/C Issuer) shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) make funds available to the Revolver Agent in Dollars for the account of the relevant L/C Issuer at the Agent’s Office for payments in an amount equal to its Applicable Percentage of any Unreimbursed Amount in respect of a Letter of Credit not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Revolver Agent, whereupon each Revolving Credit Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Loan to the Borrower in such amount. The Revolver Agent shall remit the funds so received to the relevant L/C Issuer.

With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount in respect of a Letter of Credit that is not fully refinanced by a Revolving Credit Borrowing of Base Rate Loans because the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, the Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the relevant L/C Issuer an L/C Borrowing in Dollars in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the Default Rate. In such event, each Revolving Credit Lender’s payment to the Revolver Agent for the account of the relevant L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.03.

Until each Revolving Credit Lender funds its Revolving Credit Loan or L/C Advance pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) to reimburse the relevant L/C Issuer for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such amount shall be solely for the account of the relevant L/C Issuer.

Each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans or L/C Advances to reimburse an L/C Issuer for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section 2.03(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the relevant L/C Issuer, a Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default; or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided that each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans (but not L/C Advances) pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (other than delivery by the Borrower of a Committed Loan Notice). No such making of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the relevant L/C Issuer for the amount of any payment made by such L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein.

If any Revolving Credit Lender fails to make available to the Revolver Agent for the account of the relevant L/C Issuer any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(c) by the time specified in Section

#96808608v5

2.03(c)(ii), such L/C Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Revolver Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to such L/C Issuer at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Revolver Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. A certificate of the relevant L/C Issuer submitted to any Revolving Credit Lender (through the Revolver Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 2.03(c)(vi) shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error.

If, at any time after an L/C Issuer has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any Revolving Credit Lender such Lender’s L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with this Section 2.03(c), the Revolver Agent receives for the account of such L/C Issuer any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Revolver Agent), the Revolver Agent will distribute to each Revolving Credit Lender its Applicable Percentage thereof (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s L/C Advance was outstanding) in the same funds as those received by the Revolver Agent.

If any payment received by the Revolver Agent for the account of an L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) is required to be returned under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.06 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such L/C Issuer in its discretion), each Revolving Credit Lender shall pay to the Revolver Agent for the account of such L/C Issuer its Applicable Percentage thereof on demand of the Revolver Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate.

Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the relevant L/C Issuer for each drawing under each Letter of Credit issued by it and to repay each L/C Borrowing shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following:

any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;

the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, defense or other right that any Loan Party may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the relevant L/C Issuer or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction;

any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit;

any payment by the relevant L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by the relevant L/C Issuer under such Letter of

#96808608v5

Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law;

any exchange, release or nonperfection of any Collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from the Guaranty or any other guarantee, for all or any of the Secured Obligations of any Loan Party in respect of such Letter of Credit; or

any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Loan Party;

provided that the foregoing shall not excuse any L/C Issuer from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable Law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by such L/C Issuer’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by the final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof.

Role of L/C Issuers. Each Lender and the Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the relevant L/C Issuer shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the L/C Issuers, any Agent-Related Person nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of any L/C Issuer shall be liable to any Lender for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Required Lenders or the Required Revolving Credit Lenders, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by the final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Letter of Credit Application. The Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Borrower’s pursuing such rights and remedies as they may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. None of the L/C Issuers, any Agent-Related Person, nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of any L/C Issuer, shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (iii) of this Section 2.03(e); provided that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower may have a claim against an L/C Issuer, and such L/C Issuer may be liable to the Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the Borrower caused by such L/C Issuer’s willful misconduct or gross negligence as determined by the final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, each L/C Issuer 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, and no L/C Issuer shall be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any

#96808608v5

instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason.

Cash Collateral. (i) If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing and the Revolver Agent or the Required Revolving Credit Lenders or Required Lenders, as applicable, require the Borrower to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations pursuant to Section 8.02(a)(iii) or (ii) an Event of Default set forth under Section 8.01(f) (with respect to the Borrower) or (g) occurs and is continuing, then the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize the then Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations (in an amount equal to such Outstanding Amount plus any accrued or unpaid fees thereon determined as of the date such Cash Collateral is provided). For purposes hereof, “Cash Collateralize” means to pledge and deposit with or deliver to the Revolver Agent, for the benefit of the relevant L/C Issuer and the Revolving Credit Lenders, as collateral for the L/C Obligations, cash or deposit account balances in the relevant currencies in an amount equal to the L/C Exposure (determined as of the date of such Event of Default) (“Cash Collateral”) pursuant to documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Revolver Agent and the relevant L/C Issuer (which documents are hereby consented to by the Lenders). Derivatives of such term have corresponding meanings. The Borrower hereby grants to the Revolver Agent, for the benefit of the L/C Issuers and the Revolving Credit Lenders, a security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein and all proceeds of the foregoing. The Revolver Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Cash Collateral shall be maintained in accounts satisfactory to the Revolver Agent, in the name of the Revolver Agent and for the benefit of the Revolving Credit Lenders and may be invested in readily available Cash Equivalents at its sole discretion. If at any time the Revolver Agent determines that any funds held as Cash Collateral are subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Revolver Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) or that the total amount of such funds is less than the L/C Exposure, the Borrower will, forthwith upon demand by the Revolver Agent, pay to the Revolver Agent, as additional funds to be deposited and held in the deposit accounts specified by the Revolver Agent, an amount equal to the excess of (a) such L/C Exposure over (b) the total amount of funds, if any, then held as Cash Collateral that the Revolver Agent reasonably determines to be free and clear of any such right and claim. Upon the drawing of any Letter of Credit for which funds are on deposit as Cash Collateral, such funds shall be applied, to the extent permitted under applicable Law, to reimburse the relevant L/C Issuer. To the extent the amount of any Cash Collateral exceeds the L/C Exposure plus costs incidental thereto and so long as no other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the excess shall be refunded to the Borrower. If such Event of Default is cured or waived and no other Event of Default is then occurring and continuing, the amount of any Cash Collateral (including any accrued interest thereon) shall be refunded to the Borrower.

Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Revolver Agent in Dollars for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with its Applicable Percentage, a Letter of Credit fee for each Letter of Credit issued pursuant to this Agreement equal to the product of (i) Applicable Rate for Revolver SOFR Loans that are Revolving Credit Loans and (ii) the Dollar Equivalent of the daily maximum amount then available to be

#96808608v5

drawn under such Letter of Credit. Such letter of credit fees shall be computed on a quarterly basis in arrears. Such letter of credit fees shall be due and payable after the Conversion Date on the third Business Day after the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Conversion Date following the issuance of such Letter of Credit, and on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand. If there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the daily maximum amount of each Letter of Credit shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect.

Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to L/C Issuers. The Borrower shall pay directly to each L/C Issuer for its own account a fronting fee (a “Fronting Fee”) in Dollars with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by it equal to 0.125% per annum of the Dollar Equivalent of the daily maximum amount then available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. Such fronting fees shall be computed on a quarterly basis in arrears. Such fronting fees shall be due and payable after the Conversion Date on the third Business Day after the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Conversion Date following the issuance of such Letter of Credit, and on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand. In addition, the Borrower shall pay directly to each L/C Issuer for its own account the customary issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of such L/C Issuer relating to letters of credit as from time to time in effect. Such customary fees and standard costs and charges are due and payable within ten (10) Business Days of demand and are nonrefundable.

Conflict with Letter of Credit Application. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in any Letter of Credit Application, in the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any Letter of Credit Application, the terms hereof shall control.

Addition of an L/C Issuer. A Revolving Credit Lender (or any of its Subsidiaries or affiliates) may become an additional L/C Issuer hereunder pursuant to a written agreement among the Borrower, the Revolver Agent and such Revolving Credit Lender. The Revolver Agent shall notify the Revolving Credit Lenders of any such additional L/C Issuer.

Applicability of ISP and UCP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the L/C Issuer and the Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued (i) the rules of the ISP shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit, and (ii) the rules of the UCP shall apply to each commercial Letter of Credit.

Replacement of L/C Issuer. Any L/C Issuer may be replaced with another Revolving Credit Lender (or an Affiliate of a Revolving Credit Lender) at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Required Revolving Credit Lenders, and the successor L/C Issuer. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Revolving Credit Lenders of any such replacement of such L/C Issuer. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced L/C Issuer. From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor L/C Issuer shall have all the rights and obligations of the applicable L/C Issuer under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter, and (ii) references herein to the term “L/C Issuer” shall be deemed to refer to

#96808608v5

such successor or to any previous L/C Issuer, or to such successor L/C Issuer and all previous L/C Issuers, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an L/C Issuer hereunder, the replaced L/C Issuer shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an L/C Issuer under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

[Reserved]

Prepayments

Optional Prepayments. (i) The Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent (or the Revolver Agent in the case of any notice in connection with any Revolving Credit Facilities, Revolving Credit Commitments, Revolving Credit Loans, Extended Revolving Credit Commitments or Loans thereunder or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments) by the Borrower, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay any Borrowing of any Class in whole or in part without premium or penalty (except as set forth in Section 2.05(a)(iv)); provided that (1) such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time (A) three (3) Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans (or, in the case of a Eurocurrencyan Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loan denominated in any currency other than Dollars, not later than 1:00 p.m., Local Time, three (3) Business Days before any date of prepayment), (B) on the date of prepayment of Base Rate Loans, (C) three (3) Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans and (D) five (5) Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR Loans or Revolver Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR Loans and (2) any prepayment of EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans or Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of the Borrowing Minimum or a whole multiple of the Borrowing Multiple in excess thereof, in each case, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the Class(es) and Type(s) of Loans to be prepaid. The Administrative Agent (or the Revolver Agent, as applicable) will promptly notify each Appropriate Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such prepayment. If such notice is given by the Borrower, the Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Any prepayment of a Eurocurrencyan Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loan or Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued interest thereon, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.04. Each prepayment of the Loans pursuant to this Section 2.05(a) shall be applied (x) prior to the Conversion Date, to reduce the principal amount of the Term Loans to be repaid on the Maturity Date and (y) after the Conversion Date, to the Class(es) and Type(s) (and in the case of Term Loans, the installments thereof) as directed by the Borrower (it being understood and agreed that in the case of Term Loans, if the Borrower does not so direct at the time of such prepayment, such prepayment shall be applied against the scheduled repayments of Term Loans of the relevant Class under Section 2.07

#96808608v5

in direct order of maturity) and shall be paid to the Appropriate Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages.

[reserved].

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Borrower may rescind any notice of prepayment under Section 2.05(a) if such notice of prepayment states that such prepayment is conditioned upon the effectiveness of an Investment, Change of Control, the effectiveness of other credit facilities, acquisition, debt or equity offering, and such condition is not satisfied.

In the event that the Borrower (x) makes any prepayment of any Class of Initial Term Loans in connection with any Repricing Transaction or (y) effects any amendment of this Agreement resulting in a Repricing Transaction with respect to any Class of Initial Term Loans, in each case prior to the six (6) month anniversary of the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date, the Borrower shall pay a premium in an amount equal to 1.0% of (A) in the case of clause (x), the amount of such Initial Term Loans being prepaid or (B) in the case of clause (y), the aggregate amount of the applicable Initial Term Loans outstanding immediately prior to such amendment, in each case to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of each of the applicable Initial Term Lenders.

Mandatory Prepayments.

[Reserved].

(A) Subject to Section 2.05(b)(ii)(B), and any Customary Intercreditor Agreement, if following the Closing Date (x) the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary consummates any non-ordinary course sale, transfer or other disposition of property or assets permitted by Section 7.05(a)(ii), or (y) any Casualty Event occurs, which in the aggregate results in the realization or receipt by the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary of Net Available Cash in excess of (x) prior to the Conversion Date, $100.0 million and (y) after the Conversion Date, the greater of $100.0 million and 3.5% of LTM EBITDA in the case of each of, a single Asset Disposition or Casualty Event or series of related Asset Dispositions or Casualty Events, the Borrower shall make a prepayment, in accordance with Section 2.05(b)(ii)(C), of an aggregate principal amount of Term Loans equal to 100% of such Net Available Cash (the “Applicable Proceeds”) realized or received; provided that no such prepayment shall be required pursuant to this Section 2.05(b)(ii)(A) (I) with respect to such portion of such Net Available Cash that the Borrower intends to reinvest in accordance with Section 2.05(b)(ii)(B), (II) until the aggregate amount of Net Available Cash is reinvested in accordance with Section 2.05(b)(ii)(B) within the time periods set forth therein or (III) with respect to such portion of such Net Available Cash that is used to repay Other Applicable Indebtedness as permitted under Section 2.05(b)(ii)(C).

With respect to any Net Available Cash realized or received with respect to any Asset Disposition (other than any Asset Disposition specifically excluded from the application of Section 2.05(b)(ii)(A)) or any Casualty Event, at the option of the Borrower, the Borrower may reinvest (including capital expenditures) an amount equal to all or any portion of such Net Available Cash (i) in Additional Assets (including by means of an investment in Additional Assets by a Restricted Subsidiary) or (ii) in any one or more businesses (provided that any such business will be a Restricted Subsidiary), properties or assets that replace the businesses, properties and/or assets that are the subject of such Asset Disposition (provided, that the assets (including Capital Stock) acquired with the Net Available Cash of a disposition of Collateral are pledged as Collateral to the extent required under the Collateral Documents), with any such investment made by way of a capital or other lease valued at the present value of the minimum amount of payments under such lease (as reasonably determined by the Borrower) within (x) twelve (12) months following

#96808608v5

receipt of such Net Available Cash or (y) if the Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries enter into a legally binding commitment to reinvest such Net Available Cash within twelve (12) months following receipt thereof, one hundred eighty (180) days after the twelve (12) month period that follows receipt of such Net Available Cash; provided that if any Net Available Cash is not so reinvested by the deadline specified in clause (x) or (y) above, as applicable, or if any such Net Available Cash are no longer intended to be or cannot be so reinvested at any time after delivery of a notice of reinvestment election, an amount equal to 100% of any such Net Available Cash shall be applied, in accordance with Section 2.05(b)(ii)(C), to the prepayment of the Term Loans as set forth in this Section 2.05.

On each occasion that the Borrower must make a prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.05(b)(ii), the Borrower shall, within five (5) Business Days after the date of realization or receipt of such Net Available Cash in the minimum amount specified above (or, in the case of prepayments required pursuant to Section 2.05(b)(ii)(B), within five (5) Business Days of the deadline specified in clause (x) or (y) thereof, as applicable, or of the date the Borrower reasonably determines that such Net Available Cash is no longer intended to be or cannot be so reinvested, as the case may be), make a prepayment, in accordance with Section 2.05(b)(v) below, of the principal amount of Term Loans in an amount equal to 100% of such Net Available Cash realized or received; provided, further, that with respect to any prepayment required by Section 2.05(b)(ii)(A), the Borrower may use a portion of such Net Available Cash to prepay or repurchase Indebtedness secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis with the Liens securing the Secured Obligations (the “Other Applicable Indebtedness”) to the extent required pursuant to the terms of the documentation governing such Other Applicable Indebtedness, in which case, the amount of prepayment required to be made with respect to such Net Available Cash pursuant to this Section 2.05(b)(ii)(C) shall be deemed to be the amount equal to the product of (x) the amount of such Net Available Cash required to be repaid by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the outstanding principal amount of Term Loans required to be prepaid pursuant to this Section 2.05(b)(ii)(C) and the denominator of which is the sum of the outstanding principal amount of such Other Applicable Indebtedness required to be prepaid pursuant to the terms of the documents governing such Other Applicable Indebtedness and the outstanding principal amount of Term Loans required to be prepaid pursuant to this paragraph (for the avoidance of doubt, amounts described in this clause (y) in the calculation of such fraction shall be deemed to refer to then outstanding principal amount of such Indebtedness subject to such prepayment requirement, prior to giving effect to any reduction in the amount thereof as the result of such prepayment).

If, following the Closing Date, the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary incurs or issues any (A) Refinancing Term Loans, (B) Refinancing Indebtedness with respect to Indebtedness permitted pursuant to Section 7.03(b)(i) or (C) Indebtedness not expressly permitted to be incurred or issued pursuant to Section 7.03, the Borrower shall cause to be prepaid an aggregate principal amount of Term Loans equal to 100.0% of all Net Available Cash received therefrom on or prior to the date which is five (5) Business Days after the receipt of such Net Available Cash. If the Borrower obtains any Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments, the Borrower shall, concurrently with the receipt thereof, terminate Revolving Credit Commitments in an equivalent amount pursuant to Section 2.06.

Each prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.05(b) shall be applied on a pro rata basis to each Class of Term Loans and within each Class of Term Loans, (x) prior to the Conversion Date, to reduce the principal amount of the Term Loans to be repaid on the Maturity Date and (y) after the Conversion Date, first, to the installments thereof pro rata in direct order of maturity for the next four scheduled payments pursuant to Section 2.07(a) following the applicable prepayment event and, second, to the remaining installments thereof pro rata; provided that any mandatory prepayment pursuant to Section 2.05 shall be applied on a pro rata basis to each Class of Initial Term Loans, and,

#96808608v5

except to the extent a lesser prepayment is required pursuant to the applicable Incremental Facility Amendment or Extension Offer with respect to any applicable Class of Incremental Term Loans or Extended Term Loans, any Incremental Term Loans and Extended Term Loans. Each such prepayment of any Class of Term Loans shall be paid to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages subject to clause (v) of this Section 2.05(b).

The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of any mandatory prepayment of Term Loans required to be made pursuant to clauses (i), (ii), and (iii) of this Section 2.05(b) prior to 1:00 p.m. at least one (1) Business Day prior to the date of such prepayment. Each such notice shall specify the date of such prepayment and provide a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Appropriate Lender of the contents of the Borrower’s prepayment notice and of such Appropriate Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the prepayment with respect to any Class of Term Loans. Each Appropriate Lender may reject all or a portion of its Applicable Percentage of any mandatory prepayment (such declined amounts, the “Declined Proceeds”) of Term Loans required to be made pursuant to clauses (i) or (ii) of this Section 2.05(b) by providing written notice (each, a “Rejection Notice”) to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower no later than 5:00 p.m. three (3) Business Days after the date of such Lender’s receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent regarding such prepayment. Each Rejection Notice from a given Lender shall specify the principal amount of the mandatory prepayment of Term Loans to be rejected by such Lender. If a Lender fails to deliver a Rejection Notice to the Administrative Agent within the time frame specified above or such Rejection Notice fails to specify the principal amount of the Term Loans to be rejected, any such failure will be deemed an acceptance of the total amount of such mandatory repayment of Term Loans. Any Declined Proceeds shall be retained by the Borrower (“Retained Declined Proceeds”).

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.05(b), (i) to the extent that any or all of the Net Available Cash of any Asset Disposition by a Restricted Subsidiary otherwise giving rise to a prepayment pursuant to Section 2.05(b)(ii) (a “Restricted Disposition”) or the Net Available Cash of any Casualty Event of a Restricted Subsidiary (a “Restricted Casualty Event”) would be prohibited or delayed by applicable local law from being distributed or otherwise transferred to the Borrower, the Borrower shall not be required to make a prepayment at the time provided in Section 2.05(b)(ii), for so long, but only so long, as the applicable local law will not permit such distribution or transfer (the Borrower hereby agreeing to cause the applicable Restricted Subsidiary to promptly take reasonable actions (as determined in the Company’s reasonable business judgment) available under the applicable local law to permit such repatriation), and once distribution or transfer of any of such affected Net Available Cash is permitted under the applicable local law, the amount of such Net Available Cash permitted to be distributed or transferred (net of additional Taxes payable or reserved against as a result thereof) will be promptly (and in any event not later than five (5) Business Days after such distribution or transfer is permitted (net of additional Taxes payable or reserved against as a result thereof)) taken into account in measuring the Borrower’s obligation to repay the Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.05(b) to the extent provided herein, (ii) to the extent that the Borrower has determined in good faith that repatriation of any or all of the Net Available Cash of any Restricted Disposition or any Restricted Casualty Event would have (x) an adverse Tax

#96808608v5

consequence that is not de minimis or (y) would be material constituent document restrictions (as a result of minority ownership by third parties) and other material agreements (so long as any prohibition is not created in contemplation of such prepayment), the amount of the Net Available Cash so affected shall not be taken into account in measuring the Borrower’s obligation to repay Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.05(b). Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries will undertake to use reasonable efforts (as determined in the Company’s reasonable business judgment) for one year to overcome or eliminate any such restrictions (subject to the considerations above and as determined in the Borrower’s reasonable business judgment) to make the relevant prepayment and (y) any prepayments required after application of the above provision shall be net of any costs, expenses or Taxes (other than any Taxes already taken into account in the definition of Net Available Cash) incurred by the Borrower or any of its Affiliates and arising as a result of compliance with immediately preceding clause (x).

If for any reason the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposures of all Lenders at any time exceeds the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect (including, for the avoidance of doubt, as a result of currency fluctuations or the termination of such Revolving Credit Commitments on the Maturity Date with respect thereto), the Borrower shall promptly prepay or cause to be promptly prepaid Revolving Credit Loans and/or Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations in an aggregate amount equal to such excess within one (1) Business Day following Borrower’s receipt of written notice from Revolver Agent; provided that such mandatory prepayment shall not reduce the aggregate amount of Revolving Credit Commitments; provided further that the Borrower shall not be required to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations pursuant to this Section 2.05(b)(vii) unless after the prepayment in full of the Revolving Credit Loans, the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposures exceed the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments.

Interest, Funding Losses, Etc. All prepayments under this Section 2.05 shall be accompanied by all accrued interest thereon in the currency in which such Loan is denominated, together with, in the case of any such prepayment of a Eurocurrencyan Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loan or Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loan on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period therefor, any amounts owing in respect of such EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loan or Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loan, as applicable, pursuant to Section 3.04.

Notwithstanding any of the other provisions of this Section 2.05, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, if any prepayment of EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans, or Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans is required to be made under this Section 2.05, prior to the last day of the Interest Period therefor, in lieu of making any payment pursuant to this Section 2.05 in respect of any such EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loan or Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loan prior to the last day of the Interest Period therefor, the Borrower may, in its sole discretion, deposit with the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, in the currency in which such Loan is denominated the amount of any such prepayment otherwise required to be made hereunder until the last day of such Interest Period, at which time the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, shall be authorized (without any further action by or notice to or from the Borrower or any other Loan Party) to apply such amount to the prepayment of such Loans in accordance with this Section

#96808608v5

2.05. Such deposit shall constitute cash collateral for the EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans or Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans to be so prepaid, provided that the Borrower may at any time direct that such deposit be applied to make the applicable payment required pursuant to this Section 2.05.

Discounted Voluntary Prepayments.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement (including Section 2.13) or any other Loan Document, the Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay one or more Classes of Term Loans to the Lenders at a discount to the par value of such Loans and on a non pro rata basis (each, a “Discounted Voluntary Prepayment”) pursuant to the procedures described in this Section 2.05(d), provided that (A) no proceeds from Revolving Credit Loans shall be used to consummate any such Discounted Voluntary Prepayment, (B) any Discounted Voluntary Prepayment shall be offered to all Term Lenders of such Class on a pro rata basis, (C) [reserved] and (D) the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, together with each Discounted Prepayment Option Notice, a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Borrower (1) stating that no Event of Default under Section 8.01(a) or under Section 8.01(f) or (g) (in each case, with respect to the Borrower) has occurred and is continuing or would result from the Discounted Voluntary Prepayment, (2) stating that each of the conditions to such Discounted Voluntary Prepayment contained in this Section 2.05(d) has been satisfied and (3) specifying the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans of any Class offered to be prepaid pursuant to such Discounted Voluntary Prepayment.

To the extent the Borrower seeks to make a Discounted Voluntary Prepayment, the Borrower will provide written notice to the Administrative Agent substantially in the form of Exhibit H hereto (each, a “Discounted Prepayment Option Notice”) that the Borrower desires to prepay Term Loans of one or more specified Classes in an aggregate principal amount specified therein by the Borrower (each, a “Proposed Discounted Prepayment Amount”), in each case at a discount to the par value of such Loans as specified below. The Proposed Discounted Prepayment Amount of any Loans shall not be less than $5.0 million. The Discounted Prepayment Option Notice shall further specify with respect to the proposed Discounted Voluntary Prepayment (A) the Proposed Discounted Prepayment Amount for Loans to be prepaid, (B) a discount range (which may be a single percentage) selected by the Borrower with respect to such proposed Discounted Voluntary Prepayment equal to a percentage of par of the principal amount of the Loans to be prepaid (the “Discount Range”), and (C) the date by which Lenders are required to indicate their election to participate in such proposed Discounted Voluntary Prepayment, which shall be at least five Business Days from and including the date of the Discounted Prepayment Option Notice (the “Acceptance Date”).

Upon receipt of a Discounted Prepayment Option Notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each applicable Lender thereof. On or prior to the Acceptance Date, each such Lender may specify by written notice substantially in the form of Exhibit I hereto (each, a “Lender Participation Notice”) to the Administrative Agent (A) a maximum discount to par (the “Acceptable Discount”) within the Discount Range (for example, a Lender specifying a discount to par of 20.0% would accept a purchase price of 80.0% of the par value of the Loans to be prepaid) and (B) a maximum principal amount (subject to rounding requirements specified by the Administrative Agent) of the Term Loans to be prepaid held by such Lender with respect to which such Lender is willing to permit a

#96808608v5

Discounted Voluntary Prepayment at the Acceptable Discount (“Offered Loans”). Based on the Acceptable Discounts and principal amounts of the Term Loans to be prepaid specified by the Lenders in the applicable Lender Participation Notice, the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower, shall determine the applicable discount for such Term Loans to be prepaid (the “Applicable Discount”), which Applicable Discount shall be (A) the percentage specified by the Borrower if the Borrower has selected a single percentage pursuant to Section 2.05(d)(ii) for the Discounted Voluntary Prepayment or (B) otherwise, the highest Acceptable Discount at which the Borrower can pay the Proposed Discounted Prepayment Amount in full (determined by adding the Outstanding Amount of Offered Loans commencing with the Offered Loans with the highest Acceptable Discount); provided, however, that in the event that such Proposed Discounted Prepayment Amount cannot be repaid in full at any Acceptable Discount, the Applicable Discount shall be the lowest Acceptable Discount specified by the Lenders that is within the Discount Range. The Applicable Discount shall be applicable for all Lenders who have offered to participate in the Discounted Voluntary Prepayment and have Qualifying Loans. Any Lender with outstanding Term Loans to be prepaid whose Lender Participation Notice is not received by the Administrative Agent by the Acceptance Date shall be deemed to have declined to accept a Discounted Voluntary Prepayment of any of its Loans at any discount to their par value within the Applicable Discount.

The Borrower shall make a Discounted Voluntary Prepayment by prepaying those Term Loans to be prepaid (or the respective portions thereof) offered by the Lenders (“Qualifying Lenders”) that specify an Acceptable Discount that is equal to or greater than the Applicable Discount (“Qualifying Loans”) at the Applicable Discount, provided that if the aggregate proceeds required to prepay all Qualifying Loans (disregarding any interest payable at such time) would exceed the amount of aggregate proceeds required to prepay the Proposed Discounted Prepayment Amount, such amounts in each case calculated by applying the Applicable Discount, the Borrower shall prepay such Qualifying Loans ratably among the Qualifying Lenders based on their respective principal amounts of such Qualifying Loans (subject to rounding requirements specified by the Administrative Agent). If the aggregate proceeds required to prepay all Qualifying Loans (disregarding any interest payable at such time) would be less than the amount of aggregate proceeds required to prepay the Proposed Discounted Prepayment Amount, such amounts in each case calculated by applying the Applicable Discount, the Borrower shall prepay all Qualifying Loans.

Each Discounted Voluntary Prepayment shall be made within five (5) Business Days of the Acceptance Date (or such later date as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably agree, given the time required to calculate the Applicable Discount and determine the amount and holders of Qualifying Loans), without premium or penalty (but subject to Section 3.04), upon irrevocable notice substantially in the form of Exhibit J hereto (each a “Discounted Voluntary Prepayment Notice”), delivered to the Administrative Agent no later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, three (3) Business Days prior to the date of such Discounted Voluntary Prepayment, which notice shall specify the date and amount of the Discounted Voluntary Prepayment and the Applicable Discount determined by the Administrative Agent. Upon receipt of any Discounted Voluntary Prepayment Notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof. If any Discounted Voluntary Prepayment Notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall

#96808608v5

be due and payable to the applicable Lenders, subject to the Applicable Discount on the applicable Loans, on the date specified therein together with accrued interest (on the par principal amount) to but not including such date on the amount prepaid. The par principal amount of each Discounted Voluntary Prepayment of a Term Loan shall be applied ratably to reduce the remaining installments of such Class of Term Loans (as applicable).

To the extent not expressly provided for herein, each Discounted Voluntary Prepayment shall be consummated pursuant to procedures (including as to timing, rounding, minimum amounts, Type and Interest Periods and calculation of Applicable Discount in accordance with Section 2.05(d)(ii) above) established by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, each acting reasonably.

Prior to the delivery of a Discounted Voluntary Prepayment Notice, (A) upon written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower may withdraw or modify its offer to make a Discounted Voluntary Prepayment pursuant to any Discounted Prepayment Option Notice and (B) no Lender may withdraw its offer to participate in a Discounted Voluntary Prepayment pursuant to any Lender Participation Notice unless the terms of such proposed Discounted Voluntary Prepayment have been modified by the Borrower after the date of such Lender Participation Notice.

Nothing in this Section 2.05(d) shall require the Borrower to undertake any Discounted Voluntary Prepayment.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, until the Maturity Date of the Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Facility has occurred and the Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Exposure of each Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lender has been reduced to zero, each prepayment of any Revolving Credit Borrowing under this Section 2.05 shall be applied to both Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Loans and Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Loans ratably based on the respective amounts of Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Commitments and Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect (other than any prepayment of Revolving Credit Borrowings in connection with any termination or reduction of Commitments under the Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Facility or the Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Facility, as applicable, pursuant to Section 2.06).

Termination or Reduction of Commitments

Optional. The Borrower may at any time, without premium or penalty, upon written notice to the Administrative Agent (or the Revolver Agent in the case of any notice in connection with any Revolving Credit Facilities, Revolving Credit Commitments, Revolving Credit Loans, Extended Revolving Credit Commitments or Loans thereunder or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments), terminate the unused Commitments of any Class, or from time to time permanently reduce the unused Commitments of any Class; provided, that (i) any such notice shall be received by the Administrative Agent (or the Revolver Agent, as applicable) three (3) Business Days prior to the date of termination or reduction, (ii) any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $1.0 million and not less than $1.0 million and (iii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce any Class of Revolving Credit Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent repayment of the Revolving Credit Loans of such Class, the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure of all Lenders in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility

#96808608v5

(excluding the portion of such Class of Revolving Credit Exposures attributable to outstanding Letters of Credit if and to the extent that the Borrower has made arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (or the Revolver Agent, as applicable) and the applicable L/C Issuer with respect to such Letters of Credit and such L/C Issuer has released the Revolving Credit Lenders from their participation obligations with respect to such Letters of Credit) would exceed the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments. The amount of any such Commitment reduction shall not be applied to the Letter of Credit Sublimit unless, after giving effect to any reduction of the Commitments, the Letter of Credit Sublimit exceeds the amount of the Revolving Credit Facility, in which case such sublimit shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such excess. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower may rescind or postpone any notice of termination of the Commitments if such termination would have resulted from a refinancing, which refinancing shall not be consummated or otherwise shall be delayed.

Mandatory. The Initial Term Commitment of each Term Lender shall be automatically and permanently reduced to $0 upon the making of such Initial Term Lender’s Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.01(a). The Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date therefor. The Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date therefor. The Extended Revolving Credit Commitments shall terminate on the respective maturity dates applicable thereto.

Application of Commitment Reductions; Payment of Fees. The Administrative Agent (or the Revolver Agent, as applicable) will promptly notify the Lenders of any termination or reduction of unused Commitments of any Class under this Section 2.06. Upon any reduction of unused Commitments of any Class, the Commitment of each Lender of such Class shall be reduced by such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the amount by which such Commitments are reduced (other than the termination of the Commitment of any Lender as provided in Section 3.06). All Commitment Fees accrued until the Closing Date of any termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be paid on the Closing Date of such termination.

Repayment of Loans

Term Loans. The Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Term Lenders holding Initial Term Loans (i) on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Conversion Date, an aggregate principal amount equal to 0.25% of the sum of the aggregate principal amount of the Initial Term Loans funded (or deemed funded) on the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date and the Initial Term Loans funded on the Amendment No. 2 Incremental Facility Effective Date and (ii) on the Maturity Date for the Initial Term Loans, the aggregate principal amount of all Initial Term Loans outstanding on such date; provided that payments required by Section 2.07(a)(i) above shall be reduced as a result of the application of prepayments occurring after the Conversion Date in accordance with Section 2.05. In the event any Incremental Term Loans or Extended Term Loans are made, such Incremental Term Loans or Extended Term Loans, as applicable, shall be repaid by the Borrower in the amounts and on the dates set forth in the definitive documentation with respect thereto and on the applicable Maturity Date thereof.

Revolving Credit Loans. The Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Lenders on the Maturity Date for

#96808608v5

the Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Facility the principal amount of each of its Tranche 1 Revolving Credit Loans outstanding on such date. The Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Lenders on the Maturity Date for the Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Facility the principal amount of each of its Tranche 2 Revolving Credit Loans outstanding on such date.

Interest

Subject to the provisions of Section 2.08(b), (i) each EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate; (ii) each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate; (iii) each Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate; and (iv) each Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR plus the Applicable Rate; and (v) each Revolver Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Revolver Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR plus the Applicable Rate.

The Borrower shall pay interest on past due amounts under this Agreement at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws. Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand to the fullest extent permitted by and subject to applicable Laws, including in relation to any required additional agreements.

Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in the currency in which such Loan is denominated in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified herein. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law.

In connection with the use or administration of Term SOFR Rate, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make 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 Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Term Lenders of the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes in connection with the use or administration of Term SOFR Rate.

(d) In connection with the use or administration of Revolver Term SOFR Rate, the Revolver Agent will have the right to make Revolver Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time

#96808608v5

and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Revolver Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. The Revolver Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Revolving Credit Lenders of the effectiveness of any Revolver Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes in connection with the use or administration of Revolver Term SOFR Rate.

Fees

Commitment Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Revolver Agent for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender (other than Defaulting Lenders) under the Revolving Credit Facility a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”) at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Rate for the Commitment Fee on the actual daily amount by which the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Revolving Credit Lender exceeds the Revolving Credit Exposure of such Lender. The Commitment Fee for the Revolving Credit Facility shall accrue at all times from the Conversion Date until the Maturity Date for the Revolving Credit Facility and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears after the Conversion Date on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, and on the Maturity Date for the Revolving Credit Facility.

Other Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Agents such fees as shall have been separately agreed upon in writing in the amounts and at the times so specified. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever (except as expressly agreed between the Borrower and the applicable Agent).

Computation of Interest and Fees

All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans when the Base Rate is determined by the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year). All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year and actual days elapsed. Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which such Loan is made, and shall not accrue on such Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which such Loan or such portion is paid; provided that any such Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.12(a), bear interest for one (1) day. Each determination by the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

[Reserved].

The parties acknowledge and agree that all calculations of interest under the Loan Documents are to be made on the basis of the nominal interest rate described herein and not on the basis of effective yearly rates or on any other basis which gives effect to the principle of deemed reinvestment of interest. The parties acknowledge that there is a material difference between the stated nominal interest rates and the effective yearly rates

#96808608v5

of interest and that they are capable of making the calculations required to determine such effective yearly rates of interest.

Evidence of Indebtedness

The Credit Extensions made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by one or more entries in the applicable Register. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Secured Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the Registers, the Registers shall be conclusive in the absence of demonstrable error. Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable) a Note payable to such Lender or its registered assigns, which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.

In addition to the accounts and records referred to in Section 2.11(a), each Lender, the Administrative Agent and Revolver Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records and, in the case of the Administrative Agent, entries in the Term Register, evidencing the purchases and sales with respect to the Term Facility by each Term lender and, in the case of the Revolver Agent, entries in the Revolver Register, evidencing the purchases and sales with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility by each Revolving Credit Lender, including in respect of participations in Letters of Credit. In the event of any conflict between the Registers and the accounts and records of any Lender in respect of such matters, the Registers shall be conclusive in the absence of demonstrable error.

Payments Generally

All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the applicable Agent’s Office and in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m., Local Time, on the date specified herein. The Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, will promptly distribute to each Lender its Applicable Percentage (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, after 2:00 p.m., Local Time, shall (in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable) be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. All payments under each Loan Document of principal or interest in respect of any Loan (or of any breakage indemnity in respect of any Loan) shall be made in the currency of such Loan, and, except as otherwise expressly set forth in any Loan Document, all other payments under each Loan Document shall be made in Dollars.

If any payment to be made by the Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such

#96808608v5

extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be; provided that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans or Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans to be made in the next succeeding calendar month, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.

Unless the Borrower or any Lender has notified the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, prior to the date any payment is required to be made by it to the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, hereunder, that the Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, may assume that the Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, has timely made such payment and may (but shall not be so required to), in reliance thereon, make available a corresponding amount to the Person entitled thereto. If and to the extent that such payment was not in fact made to the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, in immediately available funds, then:

if the Borrower failed to make such payment, then the applicable Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, forthwith on demand the portion of such assumed payment that was made available to such Lender in immediately available funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, to such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, in immediately available funds at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, it being understood that nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment or to prejudice any rights which the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, or the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder; and

if any Lender failed to make such payment, such Lender shall forthwith on demand pay to the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, the amount thereof in immediately available funds, together with interest thereon for the period from the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, to the Borrower to the date such amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, (the “Compensation Period”) at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. When such Lender makes payment to the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, (together with all accrued interest thereon), then such payment amount (excluding the amount of any interest which may have accrued and been paid in respect of such late payment) shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in the applicable Borrowing. If such Lender does not pay such amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s or the Revolver Agent’s, as applicable, demand therefor, the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, may make a demand therefor upon the Borrower, and the Borrower shall pay such amount to the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, together with interest thereon for the Compensation Period at the interest rate applicable to such Loan. Nothing herein shall be deemed to

#96808608v5

relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment or to prejudice any rights which the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, or the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

A notice of the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, to any Lender or the Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this Section 2.12(c) shall be conclusive, absent demonstrable error.

If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, because the conditions to the applicable Credit Extension set forth in Article IV are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.

The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans and the obligations of the Revolving Credit Lenders to fund participations in Letters of Credit are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan or to fund any such participation on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan or fund its participation.

Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.

Whenever any payment received by the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents is insufficient to pay in full all amounts due and payable to the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, and the Lenders under or in respect of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on any date, such payment shall be distributed by the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, and applied by the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, and the Lenders in the order of priority set forth in Section 8.04.

Sharing of Payments

. If, other than as expressly provided elsewhere herein, any Lender shall obtain on account of the Loans made by it, or its participations in L/C Obligations, any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of setoff, or otherwise) in excess of its ratable share (or other share contemplated hereunder) thereof, such Lender shall immediately (a) notify the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, of such fact, and (b) purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Loans made by them and/or such subparticipations in the participations in L/C Obligations held by them, as the case may be, as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment in respect of such Loans or such participations, as the case may be, pro rata with each of them; provided that (x) if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.06 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the purchasing Lender in its discretion), such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such

#96808608v5

paying Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying 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, without further interest thereon and (y) the provisions of this Section 2.13 shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in L/C Obligations to any assignee or participant. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender may, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of setoff, but subject to Section 10.09) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. The Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of demonstrable error) of participations purchased under this Section 2.13 and will in each case notify the Lenders following any such purchases or repayments. Each Lender that purchases a participation pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall from and after such purchase have the right to give all notices, requests, demands, directions and other communications under this Agreement with respect to the portion of the Secured Obligations purchased to the same extent as though the purchasing Lender were the original owner of the Secured Obligations purchased. This Section 2.13 shall not apply to any action taken by CoBank with respect to any CoBank Equities held by the Borrower or any cash patronage, whether on account of foreclosure of any Lien thereon, retirement and cancellation of the same, exercise of setoff rights or otherwise.

Incremental Credit Extensions

(a)

At any time and from time to time, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower or any Guarantor may, by notice to the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable (whereupon the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Lenders), request to increase the amount of any Class of Initial Term Loans or add one or more additional tranches of term loans (any such Initial Term Loans or additional tranche of term loans, the “Incremental Term Loans”) and/or one or more increases in the Revolving Credit Commitments (a “Revolving Credit Commitment Increase”) and/or establishment of one or more new revolving credit commitments (an “Additional Revolving Credit Commitment” and, together with any Revolving Credit Commitment Increases, the “Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments”; together with the Incremental Term Loans, the “Incremental Facilities”). Notwithstanding anything to contrary herein, the aggregate Dollar Equivalent amount of all Incremental Facilities (other than Refinancing Term Loans and Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments) (determined at the time of incurrence), together with the aggregate principal amount of all Permitted Alternative Incremental Facilities Debt, shall not exceed (i) prior to the Conversion Date, $1,375,000,000 and (ii) after the Conversion Date, the greater of (y) either (I) $1,237,500,000 or (II) with the written

#96808608v5

consent of the Required Revolving Credit Lenders (and for the avoidance of doubt, without the need for the consent of any other Lender), $1,375,000,000, and (z) 50% of LTM EBITDA (such amount in clauses (i) and (ii) the “Unrestricted Incremental Amount”) plus (iii) the amount of any voluntary prepayments, redemptions, repurchases or other retirements of the Term Loans and any other Indebtedness (in the case of such other Indebtedness, to the extent such Indebtedness is (x) secured on a pari passu basis with respect to security with the Secured Obligations, (y) secured on a junior lien basis with the Secured Obligations or (z) unsecured, and so long as it was, in the case of clause (y) or (z), originally incurred under the Unrestricted Incremental Amount), payments made pursuant to Section 3.06(a) and voluntary permanent reductions of revolving commitments secured on a pari passu basis with respect to security with the Secured Obligations, which reductions are effected after the Closing Date (including pursuant to debt buy-backs made by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary pursuant to “Dutch Auction” procedures and open market purchases permitted hereunder, in an amount equal to the discounted amount actually paid in respect thereof, but excluding (A) any prepayment with the proceeds of substantially concurrent borrowings of new Loans hereunder, (B) any reduction of revolving commitments in connection with a substantially concurrent issuance of new revolving commitments thereunder and (C) prepayments with the proceeds of substantially concurrent incurrence of other long term Indebtedness (other than borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility and other revolving Indebtedness, in each case without a substantially concurrent permanent commitment reduction)) (this clause (iii), the “Voluntary Prepayment Amount”) plus (iv) unlimited additional Incremental Facilities and Permitted Alternative Incremental Facilities Debt so long as, after giving pro forma effect thereto and after giving effect to any Permitted Investment consummated in connection therewith and all other appropriate pro forma adjustments (but excluding the cash proceeds of any such Incremental Facilities and without giving effect to any amount incurred simultaneously under (x) the Unrestricted Incremental Amount or the Voluntary Prepayment Amount or (y) the Revolving Credit Facility), (A) if such Incremental Facility is secured by a Lien on the Collateral that is pari passu with the Liens securing the Initial Term Loans, the Consolidated First Lien Secured Leverage Ratio for the most recently ended Test Period does not exceed 1.35:1.00, (B) if such Incremental Facility is secured by a Lien on the Collateral that is junior to the Liens securing the Initial Term Loans, is secured by assets not constituting Collateral or is unsecured, the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio for the most recently ended Test Period does not exceed 4.50:1.00; provided that Incremental Facilities may be incurred pursuant to this clause (iv) prior to

#96808608v5

utilization of the Unrestricted Incremental Amount and the Voluntary Prepayment Amount and assuming for purposes of such calculation that the full committed amount of any new Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments and/or any Permitted Alternative Incremental Facilities Debt constituting a revolving credit commitment then being incurred shall be treated as outstanding Indebtedness (this clause (iv), the “Incremental Incurrence Test”); provided further that, without the written consent of the Supermajority Revolving Credit Lenders (and for the avoidance of doubt, without the need for the consent of any other Lender), the aggregate principal amount of Specified Senior Indebtedness outstanding at any time shall not exceed the Specified Senior Indebtedness Cap. Each Incremental Facility shall be in an integral multiple of $1.0 million and be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $5.0 million in case of Incremental Term Loans or $5.0 million in case of Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments, provided that such amount may be less than the applicable minimum amount if such amount represents all the remaining availability hereunder as set forth above.

Any Incremental Term Loans (other than Refinancing Term Loans) (i) for purposes of mandatory prepayments, shall be treated substantially the same as (and in any event no more favorably than) the Term Loans, (ii) shall have interest rate margins (including “MFN” protection), (subject to clauses (iii) and (iv)), amortization schedule and other terms as determined by the Borrower and the Lenders thereunder (provided that, if the Effective Yield of any Incremental Term Loans that are MFN Qualifying Term Loans exceeds the Effective Yield of the Initial Term Loans immediately prior to the effectiveness of the applicable Incremental Facility Amendment by more than 0.50% per annum, the Applicable Rate and/or, as set forth below, the interest rate floor relating to such Initial Term Loans shall be adjusted such that the Effective Yield of such Initial Term Loans is equal to the Effective Yield of such Incremental Term Loans minus 0.50% per annum, it being understood and agreed that the relative rate differentials in any pricing grid specified in the Applicable Rate shall continue to be maintained (the foregoing, including all qualifications and exceptions thereto, collectively, the “MFN Adjustment”); provided, further, that any increase in Effective Yield with respect to the Initial Term Loans due to the application of an interest rate floor to any Incremental Term Loan greater than the interest rate floor applicable to the applicable Initial Term Loans shall be effected solely through an increase in the interest rate floor applicable to such Initial Term Loans), (iii) any Incremental Term Loan shall not have a final maturity date earlier than the Maturity Date applicable to the Initial Term Loans, (iv) any Incremental Term Loan shall not have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity that is shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Initial Term Loans, (v) shall not be guaranteed by any person other than the Loan Parties and, to the extent secured, shall not be secured by any assets other than the Collateral and (vi) shall be on terms and conditions and pursuant to documentation to be determined between the Borrower and the Lenders providing such Incremental Term Loans (provided, that, to the extent any more restrictive term is added for the benefit of any Incremental Term Loans, such term (except to the extent only applicable after the Maturity Date of the Initial Term Loans) shall also be added for the

#96808608v5

benefit of the Term Loans (it being understood that (1) no consent of the Administrative Agent and/or any Lender shall be required in connection with adding such term and (2) to the extent that any financial maintenance covenant is added for the benefit of any Incremental Term Loans, no consent shall be required from the Administrative Agent or any Lender to the extent that such financial maintenance covenant is also added for the benefit of all of the Term Loans)); provided that the requirements in clauses (iii) and (iv) of this clause (b) shall not apply to any Inside Maturity Debt.

Any Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments (other than Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments) (i) for purposes of mandatory prepayments, shall be treated substantially the same as (and in any event no more favorably than) the Revolving Credit Commitments, (ii) shall have interest rate margins and (subject to clauses (iii) and (iv)) amortization schedule as determined by the Borrower and the lenders thereunder (provided that (A) in the case of a Revolving Credit Commitment Increase, the maturity date of such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase shall be the same as the Maturity Date applicable to the Revolving Credit Commitments, such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase shall require no scheduled amortization or mandatory commitment reduction prior to the final Maturity Date applicable to the Revolving Credit Commitments and the Revolving Credit Commitment Increase shall be on the exact same terms and pursuant to the exact same documentation applicable to the Revolving Credit Commitments and (B) in the case of an Additional Revolving Credit Commitment, the maturity date of such Additional Revolving Credit Commitment shall be no earlier than the Maturity Date applicable to the Revolving Credit Commitments and such Additional Revolving Credit Commitment shall require no scheduled amortization or mandatory commitment reduction prior to the final Maturity Date of the Revolving Credit Commitments), (iii) any Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments shall not have a final maturity date earlier than the Maturity Date applicable to the Revolving Credit Commitments, (iv) any Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments shall not have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity that is shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Revolving Credit Commitments and (v) shall be on terms and conditions and pursuant to documentation to be determined between the Borrower and the Lenders providing such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments (it being understood that (1) all other terms applicable to such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments (other than those specified in clauses (i) through (iv) above) shall not be more restrictive (taken as a whole) than those applicable to the Revolving Credit Facility, except to the extent (a) this Agreement shall be modified to grant the Revolving Credit Facility the benefit of such more restrictive provisions, (b) applicable solely to periods after the Maturity Date in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility in effect at the time of the effectiveness of such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments or (c) as otherwise agreed by the administrative agent in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility in its reasonable discretion)).

Each notice from the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall set forth the requested amount and proposed terms of the relevant Incremental Term Loans and/or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments. Any additional bank, financial institution, existing Lender or other Person that elects to extend Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or in the case of Incremental Revolving Credit

#96808608v5

Commitments, the Revolver Agent) (provided, the applicable Agent’s consent shall only be required if such consent would be required pursuant to Section 10.07 and such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) (any such bank, financial institution, existing Lender or other Person being called an “Additional Lender”) and, if not already a Lender, shall become a Lender under this Agreement pursuant to an amendment (an “Incremental Facility Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by the Borrower, such Additional Lender, the applicable Agent and, in the case of any Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments and each L/C Issuer; provided, the applicable Agent’s and/or L/C Issuer’s consent shall only be required if such consent would be required pursuant to Section 10.07 and such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed or otherwise pursuant to Section 10.01. For the avoidance of doubt, no L/C Issuer is required to act as such for any Additional Revolving Credit Commitments unless they so consent. No Incremental Facility Amendment shall require the consent of any Lenders other than the Additional Lenders with respect to such Incremental Facility Amendment. No Lender shall be obligated to provide any Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments, unless it so agrees. Commitments in respect of any Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments may become Commitments under this Agreement. An Incremental Facility Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to any Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the applicable Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.14. The effectiveness of any Incremental Facility Amendment shall, unless otherwise agreed to by the Additional Lenders, be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof (each, an “Incremental Facility Closing Date”) of each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (it being understood that (x) all references to “the date of such Credit Extension” in Section 4.02 shall be deemed to refer to the Incremental Facility Closing Date and (y) if the proceeds of such Incremental Facility are to be used, in whole or in part, (1) to finance a Permitted Investment, (A) the only representations and warranties that will be required to be true and correct in all material respects as of the applicable Incremental Facility Closing Date shall be the Specified Representations and if applicable, customary acquisition agreement representations and (B) no Specified Default shall have occurred and Section 4.02(b) shall not apply or (2) to finance a Limited Condition Transaction, (A) the only representations and warranties that will be required to be true and correct in all material respects as of the applicable Incremental Facility Closing Date shall be the Specified Representations and (B) Section 4.02(b) shall not apply). The proceeds of any Incremental Term Loans will be used only for general corporate purposes (including, without limitation, other Investments not prohibited hereunder and Restricted Payments). Upon each increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.14, each Revolving Credit Lender immediately prior to such increase will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assigned to each Lender providing a portion of the Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment (each, an “Incremental Revolving Lender”) in respect of such increase, and each such Incremental Revolving Lender will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assumed, a portion of such Revolving Credit Lender’s participations hereunder in outstanding Letters of Credit such that, after giving effect to each such deemed assignment and assumption of participations, the percentage of the aggregate outstanding participations hereunder in Letters of Credit held by each Revolving Credit

#96808608v5

Lender (including each such Incremental Revolving Lender) will equal the percentage of the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments of all Revolving Credit Lenders represented by such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment. Additionally, if any Revolving Credit Loans are outstanding at the time any Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments are established, the Revolving Credit Lenders immediately after effectiveness of such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments shall purchase and assign at par such amounts of the Revolving Credit Loans outstanding at such time as the Revolver Agent may require such that each Revolving Credit Lender holds its Applicable Percentage of all Revolving Credit Loans outstanding immediately after giving effect to all such assignments. The Revolver Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that the minimum borrowing, pro rata borrowing and pro rata payment requirements contained elsewhere in this Agreement shall not apply to the transactions effected pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.

After the Conversion Date, any portion of any Incremental Facility incurred other than under the Incremental Incurrence Test may be reclassified at any time, as the Borrower may elect from time to time, as incurred under the Incremental Incurrence Test if the Borrower meets the applicable ratio under the Incremental Incurrence Test at such time on a pro forma basis for such reclassification at any time subsequent to the incurrence of such Incremental Facility (or would have met such ratio, in which case, such reclassification shall be deemed to have automatically occurred if not elected by the Borrower).

Extensions of Term Loans and Revolving Credit Commitments

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, pursuant to one or more offers (each, an “Extension Offer”) made from time to time by the Borrower to all Lenders of any Class of Term Loans or any Class of Revolving Credit Commitments, in each case on a pro rata basis (based on the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the respective Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments of the applicable Class) and on the same terms to each such Lender, the Borrower is hereby permitted to consummate from time to time transactions with individual Lenders that accept the terms contained in such Extension Offers to extend the maturity date of each such Lender’s Term Loans and/or Revolving Credit Commitments of the applicable Class and otherwise modify the terms of such Term Loans and/or Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to the terms of the relevant Extension Offer (including, without limitation, by increasing the interest rate or fees payable in respect of such Term Loans and/or Revolving Credit Commitments (and related outstandings) and/or modifying the amortization schedule in respect of such Lender’s Term Loans) (each, an “Extension,” and each group of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, in each case as so extended, as well as the original Term Loans and the original Revolving Credit Commitments (in each case not so extended), being a separate Class of Term Loans from the Class of Term Loans from which they were converted, and any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments (as defined below) shall constitute a separate Class of Revolving Credit Commitments from the Class of Revolving Credit Commitments from which they were converted, it being understood that an Extension may be in the form of an increase in the amount of any other then outstanding Class of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments otherwise satisfying the criteria set forth below), so long as the following terms are satisfied: (i) except as to interest rates, fees and final maturity (which shall be determined by the Borrower and set

#96808608v5

forth in the relevant Extension Offer), the Revolving Credit Commitment of any Revolving Credit Lender that agrees to an extension with respect to such Revolving Credit Commitment extended pursuant to an Extension (an “Extended Revolving Credit Commitment”), and the related outstandings, shall be a Revolving Credit Commitment (or related outstandings, as the case may be) with the same terms as the original Class of Revolving Credit Commitments (and related outstandings); provided that at no time shall there be Revolving Credit Commitments hereunder (including Extended Revolving Credit Commitments and any original Revolving Credit Commitments) which have more than three different maturity dates, (ii) except as to interest rates, fees, amortization, final maturity date, premium, required prepayment dates and participation in prepayments (which shall, subject to immediately succeeding clauses (iii), (iv) and (v), be determined between the Borrower and set forth in the relevant Extension Offer), the Term Loans of any Term Lender that agrees to an extension with respect to such Term Loans extended pursuant to any Extension (“Extended Term Loans”) shall have the same terms as the Class of Term Loans subject to such Extension Offer, (iii) the final maturity date of any Extended Term Loans shall be no earlier than the then latest maturity date hereunder and the amortization schedule applicable to Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.07(a) for periods prior to the Maturity Date for Initial Term Loans may not be increased, (iv) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Extended Term Loans shall be no shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Term Loans extended thereby, (v) any Extended Term Loans may participate on a pro rata basis or a less than pro rata basis (but not greater than a pro rata basis) in any voluntary or mandatory repayments or prepayments hereunder, in each case as specified in the respective Extension Offer, (vi) if the aggregate principal amount of the Class of Term Loans (calculated on the face amount thereof) or Revolving Credit Commitments, as the case may be, in respect of which Term Lenders or Revolving Credit Lenders, as the case may be, shall have accepted the relevant Extension Offer shall exceed the maximum aggregate principal amount of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments of such Class, as the case may be, offered to be extended by the Borrower pursuant to such Extension Offer, then the Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments of such Class, as the case may be, of such Term Lenders or Revolving Credit Lenders, as the case may be, shall be extended ratably up to such maximum amount based on the respective principal amounts (but not to exceed actual holdings of record) with respect to which such Term Lenders or Revolving Credit Lenders, as the case may be, have accepted such Extension Offer, (vii) all documentation in respect of such Extension shall be consistent with the foregoing, (viii) any applicable Minimum Extension Condition shall be satisfied unless waived by the Borrower and (ix) the Minimum Tranche Amount shall be satisfied unless waived by the Administrative Agent (or in the case of Revolving Credit Commitments, the Revolver Agent). No Lender shall be obligated to extend its Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments unless it so agrees.

With respect to all Extensions consummated by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.15, (i) such Extensions shall not constitute voluntary or mandatory payments or prepayments for purposes of Section 2.05 and (ii) no Extension Offer is required to be in any minimum amount or any minimum increment, provided that (x) the Borrower may at its election specify as a condition (a “Minimum Extension Condition”) to consummating any such Extension that a minimum amount (to be determined and specified in the relevant Extension Offer in the Borrower’s sole discretion and may be waived by the Borrower) of

#96808608v5

Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments (as applicable) of any or all applicable Classes be tendered, (y) no Class of Extended Term Loans shall be in a Dollar Equivalent amount of less than $15.0 million and (z) no Class of Extended Revolving Credit Commitments shall be in a Dollar Equivalent amount of less than $5.0 million (each amount in clause (y) and (z) above, the “Minimum Tranche Amount”), unless such Minimum Tranche Amount is waived by the Administrative Agent (or in the case of Revolving Credit Commitments, the Revolver Agent). The Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, and the Lenders hereby consent to the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.15 (including, for the avoidance of doubt, payment of any interest, fees or premium in respect of any Extended Term Loans and/or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments on the such terms as may be set forth in the relevant Extension Offer) and hereby waive the requirements of any provision of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Sections 2.05, 2.12 and 2.13) or any other Loan Document that may otherwise prohibit any such Extension or any other transaction contemplated by this Section 2.15.

No consent of any Lender or the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, shall be required to effectuate any Extension, other than (A) the consent of each Lender agreeing to such Extension with respect to one or more of its Term Loans and/or Revolving Credit Commitments (or a portion thereof) and (B) with respect to any Extension of any Class of Revolving Credit Commitments, the consent of the relevant L/C Issuer (if such L/C Issuer is being requested to issue letters of credit with respect to the Class of Extended Revolving Credit Commitments). All Extended Term Loans, Extended Revolving Credit Commitments and all obligations in respect thereof shall be Secured Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that are secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis with all other applicable Secured Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent and Revolver Agent to enter into amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Borrower as may be necessary in order to establish new Classes in respect of Revolving Credit Commitments or Term Loans so extended and such technical amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and/or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, and the Borrower in connection with the establishment of such new Classes, in each case on terms consistent with this Section 2.15.

In connection with any Extension, the Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, at least five (5) Business Days’ (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable) prior written notice thereof, and shall agree to such procedures (including, without limitation, regarding timing, rounding and other adjustments and to ensure reasonable administrative management of the credit facilities hereunder after such Extension), if any, as may be established by, or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent or the Revolver

#96808608v5

Agent, as applicable, in each case acting reasonably to accomplish the purposes of this Section 2.15.

Defaulting Lenders

. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

The Commitment Fee shall cease to accrue on any of the Revolving Credit Commitments of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.09(a);

the Commitment, Outstanding Amount of Term Loans and Revolving Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether all Lenders, the Required Lenders or the Required Revolving Credit Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 10.01); provided that any waiver, amendment or modification of a type described in clause (a), (b) or (c) of the first proviso in Section 10.01 that would apply to the Commitments or Secured Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender with respect to the effectiveness of such waiver, amendment or modification with respect to the Commitments or Secured Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender;

if any L/C Exposure exists at the time a Lender under the Revolving Credit Facility becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

all or any part of the L/C Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages but only to the extent the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Credit Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Commitments;

if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall within three (3) Business Days following notice by the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, Cash Collateralize for the benefit of the L/C Issuer only the Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.03(f) for so long as such L/C Exposure is outstanding;

if the Borrower Cash Collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.03(h) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure is Cash Collateralized;

if the L/C Exposures of the non-Defaulting Lenders are increased pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Sections 2.09(a) and 2.03(h) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Applicable Percentages; and

if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure is neither reallocated nor Cash Collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the L/C Issuer or any other Lender hereunder, all letter of credit fees payable under Section 2.03(h) with respect to such portion of such Defaulting Lender’s L/C

#96808608v5

Exposure shall be payable to the L/C Issuer until and to the extent that such L/C Exposure is reallocated and/or Cash Collateralized; and

so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender under the Revolving Credit Facility, the L/C Issuer shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it has received assurances satisfactory to it that non-Defaulting Lenders will cover the related exposure and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.16(c), and participating interests in any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.16(c)(i) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein).

In the event that the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent, as applicable, the Borrower, and the L/C Issuer each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the L/C Exposures of the Revolving Credit Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Revolving Credit Loans of the other Revolving Credit Lenders as the Revolver Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Revolving Credit Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage.

Permitted Debt Exchanges

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, pursuant to one or more offers (each, a “Permitted Debt Exchange Offer”) made from time to time by the Borrower to all Lenders (other than, with respect to any Permitted Debt Exchange Offer that constitutes an offering of securities, any Lender that, if requested by the Borrower, is unable to certify that it is (i) a “qualified institutional buyer” (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act), (ii) an institutional “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501 under the Securities Act) or (iii) not a “U.S. person” (as defined in Rule 902 under the Securities Act)) with outstanding Term Loans of a particular Class, the Borrower may from time to time consummate one or more exchanges of such Term Loans for Indebtedness (in the form of senior secured, senior unsecured, senior subordinated, or subordinated notes or loans) (such Indebtedness, “Permitted Debt Exchange Notes” and each such exchange, a “Permitted Debt Exchange”), so long as the following conditions are satisfied:

(i)

each such Permitted Debt Exchange Offer shall be made on a pro rata basis to the Term Lenders (other than, with respect to any Permitted Debt Exchange Offer that constitutes an offering of securities, any Lender that, if requested by the Borrower, is unable to certify that it is (i) a “qualified institutional buyer” (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act), (ii) an institutional “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501 under the Securities Act) or (iii) not a “U.S. person” (as defined in Rule 902 under the Securities Act)) of each applicable Class based on their respective aggregate principal amounts of outstanding Term Loans under each such Class;

(ii)

the aggregate principal amount (calculated on the face amount thereof) of such Permitted Debt Exchange Notes shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount (calculated on the face

#96808608v5

amount thereof) of Term Loans so refinanced, except by an amount equal to any fees, expenses, commissions, underwriting discounts and premiums payable in connection with such Permitted Debt Exchange;

(iii)

the stated final maturity of such Permitted Debt Exchange Notes is not earlier than the Latest Maturity Date for the Class or Classes of Term Loans being exchanged, and such stated final maturity is not subject to any conditions that could result in such stated final maturity occurring on a date that precedes such latest maturity date (it being understood that acceleration or mandatory repayment, prepayment, redemption or repurchase of such Permitted Debt Exchange Notes upon the occurrence of an event of default, a change in control, an event of loss or an asset disposition shall not be deemed to constitute a change in the stated final maturity thereof);

(iv)

such Permitted Debt Exchange Notes are not required to be repaid, prepaid, redeemed, repurchased or defeased, whether on one or more fixed dates, upon the occurrence of one or more events or at the option of any holder thereof (except, in each case, upon the occurrence of an event of default, a change in control, an event of loss or an asset disposition) prior to the Latest Maturity Date for the Class or Classes of Term Loans being exchanged, provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, scheduled amortization payments (however denominated, including scheduled offers to repurchase) of such Permitted Debt Exchange Notes shall be permitted so long as the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of such Indebtedness shall be longer than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Class or Classes of Term Loans being exchanged;

(v)

no Restricted Subsidiary is a borrower or guarantor with respect to such Indebtedness unless such Restricted Subsidiary is or substantially concurrently becomes a Loan Party;

(vi)

if such Permitted Debt Exchange Notes are secured, such Permitted Debt Exchange Notes are secured on a pari passu basis or junior priority basis to the Secured Obligations and (A) such Permitted Debt Exchange Notes are not secured by any assets not securing the Secured Obligations unless such assets substantially concurrently secure the Secured Obligations and (B) the beneficiaries thereof (or an agent on their behalf) shall have entered into a Customary Intercreditor Agreement with the Administrative Agent;

(vii)

the terms and conditions of such Permitted Debt Exchange Notes (excluding pricing and optional prepayment or redemption terms or covenants or other provisions applicable only to periods after the Maturity Date of the Class or Classes

#96808608v5

of Term Loans being exchanged) not be more restrictive (taken as a whole) than those applicable to the Term Loans, except to the extent the terms of the Term Loans are modified to benefit from such more restrictive provisions, or such more restrictive provisions reflect market terms and conditions at the time of incurrence or issuance as reasonably determined by the Borrower in good faith;

(viii)

all Term Loans exchanged under each applicable Class by the Borrower pursuant to any Permitted Debt Exchange shall automatically be cancelled and retired by the Borrower on date of the settlement thereof (and, if requested by the Administrative Agent, any applicable exchanging Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, or such other form as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, in respect thereof pursuant to which the respective Lender assigns its interest in the Term Loans being exchanged pursuant to the Permitted Debt Exchange to the Borrower for immediate cancellation), and accrued and unpaid interest on such Term Loans shall be paid to the exchanging Lenders on the date of consummation of such Permitted Debt Exchange, or, if agreed to by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the next scheduled Interest Payment Date with respect to such Term Loans (with such interest accruing until the date of consummation of such Permitted Debt Exchange);

(ix)

if the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans (calculated on the face amount thereof) of a given Class tendered by Lenders in respect of the relevant Permitted Debt Exchange Offer (with no Lender being permitted to tender a principal amount of Term Loans which exceeds the principal amount thereof of the applicable Class actually held by it) shall exceed the maximum aggregate principal amount of Term Loans of such Class offered to be exchanged by the Borrower pursuant to such Permitted Debt Exchange Offer, then the Borrower shall exchange Term Loans under the relevant Class tendered by such Lenders ratably up to such maximum based on the respective principal amounts so tendered, or, if such Permitted Debt Exchange Offer shall have been made with respect to multiple Classes without specifying a maximum aggregate principal amount offered to be exchanged for each Class, and the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans (calculated on the face amount thereof) of all Classes tendered by Lenders in respect of the relevant Permitted Debt Exchange Offer (with no Lender being permitted to tender a principal amount of Term Loans which exceeds the principal amount thereof actually held by it) shall exceed the maximum

#96808608v5

aggregate principal amount of Term Loans of all relevant Classes offered to be exchanged by the Borrower pursuant to such Permitted Debt Exchange Offer, then the Borrower shall exchange Term Loans across all Classes subject to such Permitted Debt Exchange Offer tendered by such Lenders ratably up to such maximum amount based on the respective principal amounts so tendered;

(x)

all documentation in respect of such Permitted Debt Exchange shall be consistent with the foregoing, and all written communications generally directed to the Lenders in connection therewith shall be in form and substance consistent with the foregoing and made in consultation with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent; and

(xi)

any applicable Minimum Tender Condition or Maximum Tender Condition, as the case may be, shall be satisfied or waived by the Borrower.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Lender shall have any obligation to agree to have any of its Loans or Commitments exchanged pursuant to any Permitted Debt Exchange Offer.

With respect to all Permitted Debt Exchanges effected by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.17, such Permitted Debt Exchange Offer shall be made for not less than $15.0 million in aggregate principal amount of Term Loans, provided that subject to the foregoing the Borrower may at its election specify (A) as a condition (a “Minimum Tender Condition”) to consummating any such Permitted Debt Exchange that a minimum amount (to be determined and specified in the relevant Permitted Debt Exchange Offer in the Borrower’s discretion) of Term Loans of any or all applicable Classes be tendered and/or (B) as a condition (a “Maximum Tender Condition”) to consummating any such Permitted Debt Exchange that no more than a maximum amount (to be determined and specified in the relevant Permitted Debt Exchange Offer in the Borrower’s discretion) of Term Loans of any or all applicable Classes will be accepted for exchange. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby acknowledge and agree that the provisions of Sections 2.05, 2.06 and 2.13 do not apply to the Permitted Debt Exchange and the other transactions contemplated by this Section 2.17 and hereby agree not to assert any Default or Event of Default in connection with the implementation of any such Permitted Debt Exchange or any other transaction contemplated by this Section 2.17.

In connection with each Permitted Debt Exchange, the Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent at least five (5) Business Days’ (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent) prior written notice thereof, and the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, acting reasonably, shall mutually agree to such procedures as may be necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Section 2.17; provided that the terms of any Permitted Debt Exchange Offer shall provide that the date by which the relevant Lenders are required to indicate their election to participate in such Permitted Debt Exchange shall be not less than five (5) Business Days following the date on which the Permitted Debt Exchange Offer is made. The Borrower shall provide the final results of such Permitted Debt Exchange to the Administrative Agent no later than three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed date of effectiveness for such Permitted Debt Exchange (or such

#96808608v5

shorter period agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion) and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such results.

The Borrower shall be responsible for compliance with, and hereby agrees to comply with, all applicable securities and other laws in connection with each Permitted Debt Exchange, it being understood and agreed that (i) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender assumes any responsibility in connection with the Borrower’s compliance with such laws in connection with any Permitted Debt Exchange and (ii) each Lender shall be solely responsible for its compliance with any applicable “insider trading” laws and regulations to which such Lender may be subject under the Exchange Act.

Refinancing Facilities.

At any time after the Closing Date, the Borrower may obtain, from any Lender or any Additional Lender (to the extent agreed to by such Lender or Additional Lender in its sole discretion), Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness in respect of all or any portion of the Term Loans, Prepetition Subsidiary Debt, Revolving Credit Loans and/or Revolving Credit Commitments then outstanding under this Agreement (which will be deemed to include any then outstanding Incremental Term Loans under any Incremental Facilities or any Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments then outstanding under this Agreement (or any Revolving Credit Loans outstanding pursuant thereto)) or any then outstanding Refinancing Term Loans or any then outstanding Refinancing Revolving Credit Loans or Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments in the form of Refinancing Revolving Credit Loans or Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments, respectively, in each case, pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment, together with any applicable Customary Intercreditor Agreement or other customary subordination agreement; provided, that such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness (i) will, to the extent secured, rank pari passu or junior in right of payment and of security with the other Loans and Commitments hereunder (but for the avoidance of doubt, such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness may be unsecured), (ii) will, to the extent permitted by the definition of “Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness,” have such pricing, interest rate margins (including “MFN” provisions), rate floors, discounts, fees, premiums and prepayment or redemption provisions and terms as may be agreed by the Borrower and the Lenders or Additional Lenders with respect thereto, (iii) will, to the extent in the form of Refinancing Revolving Credit Loans or Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments, participate in the payment, borrowing, participation and commitment reduction provisions herein on a pro rata basis with any then outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and Revolving Credit Commitments, except that the Borrower shall be permitted to permanently repay and terminate commitments of any such Class on a better than a pro rata basis as compared to any other Class with a later maturity date than such Class and (iv) will, to the extent in the form of Refinancing Revolving Credit Loans or Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments and unless the Required Revolving Credit Lenders shall have consented thereto, have terms and conditions (other than interest rate margins and commitment fees) identical to those applicable to the Revolving Credit Commitments and Revolving Credit Loans being refinanced. The effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment shall be subject to, to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent (or in the case of Revolving Credit Commitments and Revolving Credit Loans, the Revolver Agent), receipt by the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, of reaffirmation agreements and board resolutions, officers’ certificates and legal opinions consistent with those

#96808608v5

delivered on the Closing Date. The Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Refinancing Amendment. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness incurred pursuant thereto (including any amendments necessary to treat the Loans and Commitments subject thereto as Refinancing Term Loans, Refinancing Revolving Credit Loans or Refinancing Revolving Credit Loan Commitments, as applicable) and any Indebtedness being replaced or refinanced with such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness shall be deemed permanently reduced and satisfied in all respects. Any Refinancing Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, to effect the provisions of this Section.

This Section 2.18 shall supersede any provisions of Section 10.01 to the contrary.

Taxes, Increased Costs Protection and Illegality

Taxes

Except as required by applicable law, any and all payments by or with respect to any obligation of the Borrower (the term Borrower under this Article III being deemed to include any Subsidiary for whose account a Letter of Credit is issued) or any Guarantor to or for the account of any Agent or any Lender under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes; provided that if any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of the applicable withholding agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a withholding agent and such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then (i) the sum payable by the Borrower or applicable Guarantor shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions and withholdings (including deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.01) any Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made, (ii) the applicable withholding agent shall make such deductions and withholdings, and (iii) the applicable withholding agent shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. In addition, and without duplication of any amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.01(a), the Borrower agrees to pay, or at the option of the Administrative Agent (or in the case of amounts in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility, the Revolver Agent), timely reimburse it for, all Other Taxes.

Without duplication of any amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.01(a), the Borrower agrees to indemnify each Agent and each Lender, within 10 Business Days after written demand therefor, for (i) the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including any Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 3.01) payable by such Agent and such Lender and (ii) any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, in each case, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority; provided however that the Borrower shall not be required to indemnify any Agent or Lender pursuant to this Section 3.01(b) for any interest, penalties

#96808608v5

or expenses to the extent resulting from such Agent’s or such Lender’s failure to notify the Borrower of such possible indemnification claim within 180 days after such Agent or such Lender, as applicable, receives written notice from the applicable Governmental Authority of the specific Tax assessment or deficiency claim giving rise to such indemnification claim. A copy of a receipt or any other document evidencing payment delivered to the Borrower by a Recipient, or by the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, on its own behalf or on behalf of a Recipient, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. If any Lender or Agent determines, in its reasonable discretion, that it has received a refund in respect of any Indemnified Taxes as to which indemnification or additional amounts have been paid to it by a Borrower or any Guarantor pursuant to this Section 3.01, it shall reasonably promptly pay an amount equal to such refund after it is determined that such refund pertains to Indemnified Taxes (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by a Borrower or any Guarantor under this Section 3.01 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes giving rise to such refund plus any interest included in such refund by the relevant taxing authority attributable thereto) to the Borrower, net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Lender or Agent, as the case may be and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant taxing authority with respect to such refund); provided that the Borrower or the Guarantor, upon the request of the Lender or Agent, as the case may be, agrees promptly to return an amount equal to such refund (plus any applicable interest, additions to Tax or penalties) to such party in the event such party is required to repay such refund to the relevant taxing authority. Such Lender or Agent, as the case may be, shall, at the Borrower’s request, provide the Borrower with a copy of any notice of assessment or other evidence of the requirement to repay such refund received from the relevant taxing authority (provided that such Lender or Agent may delete any information therein that such Lender or Agent deems confidential). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (b), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (b) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. Nothing herein contained shall oblige any Lender or Agent to claim any Tax refund or to make available its Tax returns or disclose any information relating to its Tax affairs or any computations in respect thereof.

As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 3.01, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable.

Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 3.01(a) or (b) with respect to such Lender it will, if requested by the Borrower, use commercially reasonable efforts (subject to legal and regulatory restrictions), at Borrower’s expense, to designate another Applicable Lending Office for any Loan or Letter of Credit affected by such event; provided that such efforts are made on terms that, in the judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and its Applicable

#96808608v5

Lending Office(s) to suffer no unreimbursed economic or Tax cost or legal or regulatory disadvantage, and provided further that nothing in this Section 3.01(e) shall affect or postpone any of the Secured Obligations of the Borrower or the rights of such Lender pursuant to Section 3.01(a) or (c).

Each Term Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, and each Revolving Credit Lender shall severally indemnify the Revolver Agent, in each case within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender's failure to comply with the provisions of ‎Section 10.07(e) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, under this paragraph ‎(e).

Status of the Lenders: (i) Each Lender shall, at such times as are reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, provide the Borrower and the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, with any documentation prescribed by Law, or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, certifying as to any entitlement of such Lender to an exemption from, or reduction in, any withholding Tax with respect to any payments to be made to such Lender under any Loan Document. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Each such Lender shall, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders such documentation (including any documentation specifically referenced below) expired, obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, deliver reasonably promptly to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, updated or other appropriate documentation (including any new documentation reasonably requested by the applicable withholding agent) or reasonably promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, in writing of its legal inability to do so.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

Each Lender that is a “United States person” (as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, and if applicable, the assigning Lender (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender from which the related participation

#96808608v5

shall have been purchased) on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of (x) a Participant, on or before the date on which such Participant purchases the related participation and (y) an assignee, on or before the effective date of such assignment), on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement two properly completed and duly signed original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor form) certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding. Each Lender that is not a “United States person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Foreign Lender”) shall, to the extent it is legally able to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, and if applicable, the assigning Lender (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased) on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of (x) a Participant, on or before the date on which such Participant purchases the related participation and (y) an assignee, on or before the effective date of such assignment), and from time to time thereafter when required by Law or upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, two duly completed copies of whichever of the following is applicable:

(1) an executed original of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, as applicable (with respect to eligibility for benefits under any income tax treaty), or successor and related applicable forms, as the case may be, certifying to such Foreign Lender’s entitlement as of such date to an exemption from or reduction of United States withholding tax with respect to payments to be made under this Agreement,

(2) Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (or any successor forms),

(3) in the case of a Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) or the Code, (x) a certificate, in substantially the form of Exhibit L (any such certificate a “United States Tax Compliance Certificate”), or any other form approved by the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, and Borrower, to the effect that such Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code, and (y) two duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or any successor forms),

(2) to the extent a Lender is not the beneficial owner (for example, where the Lender is a partnership, or is a Lender that has granted a participation), Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or any successor forms) of the Lender, accompanied by Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or any successor forms), United States Tax Compliance Certificate, Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, Form W-8IMY (or other successor forms) and/or any other required information from each beneficial owner, as applicable (provided that, if the Lender is a partnership (and not a participating Lender) and one or more direct or indirect partners are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, the United States Tax Compliance Certificate may be provided by such Lender on behalf of such direct or indirect partner(s)), or

(3) any other form prescribed by applicable U.S. federal income tax Laws (including the Treasury regulations) as a basis for claiming a complete

#96808608v5

exemption from, or a reduction in, U.S. federal withholding tax on any payments to such Lender under the Loan Documents.

In addition, but without duplication of the covenant as to United States withholding Tax contained in ‎Section 3.01(f)(i) and ‎(ii), any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax under the law of the jurisdiction(s) in which the Borrower is organized, or any treaty to which any such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law, such properly completed and executed original documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate.

If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Sections 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, such documentation prescribed by applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, to comply with their FATCA obligations, to determine whether such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender’s FATCA obligations and to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this clause (f), a Lender shall not be required to deliver any documentation that such Lender is not legally eligible to deliver. Each Lender authorizes the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, to deliver to the Borrower and to any successor Agent any documentation provided by the Lender to the Agent pursuant to this Section 3.01(f). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, with respect to any Revolving Credit Lender, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in paragraphs (f)(ii)(A), (f)(ii)(B) and (f)(ii)(C) of this Section) shall not be required if in such Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

The Administrative Agent and Revolver Agent shall provide the Borrower with two duly completed original copies of, if it is a United States person (as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code), Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 certifying that it is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding, and, if it is not a United States person, (1) Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI with respect to payments to be received by it as a beneficial owner and (2) Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (together with required accompanying documentation) with respect to payments to be received by it on behalf of the Lenders, and shall update such forms periodically upon the reasonable request of the Borrower, and whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders any such form or documentation expired, obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, or promptly notify the Borrower in writing of its legal ineligibility to do so. Notwithstanding any other provision of this clause (g), the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable,

#96808608v5

shall not be required to deliver any form that such Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, is not legally eligible to deliver.

Inability to Determine Rates (Term Loans)

. With respect to the Term Loans:

Subject to clauses (b), (c), (d), (e), and (f) and (g) of this Section 3.02, if prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Rate Loan:

the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) (A) prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for an Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Borrowing, that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBOTerm SOFR Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable (including because the LIBO ScreenTerm SOFR Reference Rate is not available or published on a current basis), for any currency and such Interest Period; provided that no Benchmark Transition Event shall have occurred at such time or (B) at any time, that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR; or

the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that (A) prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for an Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Borrowing, the Adjusted LIBOTerm SOFR Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for any currency andfor such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for any currency such Interest Period or (B) at any time, Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone, telecopy or electronic mail as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until (x) the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (A) with respect to the relevant Benchmark and (y) the Borrower delivers a new Committed Loan Notice in accordance with the terms of Section 2.02, any request for the conversion of any Term Borrowing to, or continuation of any Term Borrowing as, a Eurocurrency Rate Borrowing shall be ineffective, and (B) ifand any Committed Loan Notice that requests, a Eurocurrency Rate Term Borrowing, of SOFR Loans shall instead be deemed to be a request for the conversion of such Borrowing shall be madeto, or continuation of such Borrowing as, a Base Rate Borrowing; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Type of Borrowings, then the other Type of Borrowings shall be permitted. Furthermore, if any SOFR Loan is outstanding on the date of the Borrower’s receipt of the notice from the Administrative Agent referred to in this ‎Section 3.02(a) applicable to such Loan, then until (x) the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist with respect to the relevant Benchmark and (y) the Borrower delivers a new request for the conversion or continuation of such Loan or a new Committed Loan Notice in accordance with the terms of Section 2.02, any Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loan shall on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (and any Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR Loan shall immediately), be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, a Base Rate Loan on such day.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any

#96808608v5

setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (32) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders 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 Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document and subject to the proviso below in this paragraph, if a Term SOFR Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then the applicable Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder or under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that, this clause (c) shall not be effective unless the Administrative Agent has delivered to the Lenders and the Borrower a Term SOFR Notice. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to deliver a Term SOFR Notice after a Term SOFR Transition Event and may do so in its sole discretion.

(d) In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make 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 Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(e) The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to clause (d) below and (v) the commencement or conclusion 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 3.02, 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

#96808608v5

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 or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 3.02.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, 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 or LIBO Rate) 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.

(g) Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any request for a Eurocurrencyan Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of the Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of the Base Rate.

Increased Cost and Reduced Return; Capital Adequacy; Reserves on EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans

If any Lender determines that as a result of any Change in Law, or such Lender’s compliance therewith, there shall be any increase in the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any Loan or issuing or participating in Letters of Credit, or a reduction in the amount received or receivable by such Lender in connection

#96808608v5

with any of the foregoing (excluding for purposes of this Section 3.03(a) any such increased costs or reduction in amount resulting from (i) Indemnified Taxes indemnifiable under Section 3.01, (ii) Excluded Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes, (iii) Excluded Taxes described in clause (a) of the definition of Excluded Taxes to the extent such Taxes are imposed on or measured by such Lender’s net income or profits (or are franchise Taxes imposed in lieu thereof) or (iv) reserve requirements contemplated by Section 3.03(c)), then from time to time within fifteen (15) days after demand by such Lender setting forth in reasonable detail such increased costs (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, given in accordance with Section 3.05), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction.

If any Lender determines that as a result of any Change in Law regarding capital adequacy or liquidity requirements or any change therein or in the interpretation thereof, in each case after the date hereof, or compliance by such Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) therewith, has the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender as a consequence of such Lender’s obligations hereunder (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy and such Lender’s desired return on capital), then from time to time upon demand of such Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the charge and the calculation of such reduced rate of return (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, given in accordance with Section 3.05), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such demand.

The Borrower shall pay to each Lender, (i) as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including eurocurrency funds or deposits, additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive in the absence of demonstrable error), and (ii) as long as such Lender shall be required to comply with any reserve ratio requirement or analogous requirement of any other central banking or financial regulatory authority imposed in respect of the maintenance of the Commitments or the funding of the EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans, such additional costs (expressed as a percentage per annum and rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest five decimal places) equal to the actual costs allocated to such Commitment or Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error) which in each case shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan, provided the Borrower shall have received at least fifteen (15) days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable) of such additional interest or cost from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give

#96808608v5

notice fifteen (15) days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest or cost shall be due and payable fifteen (15) days after receipt of such notice.

Subject to Section 3.05(b), failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 3.03 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation.

If any Lender requests compensation under this Section 3.03, then such Lender will, if requested by the Borrower, use commercially reasonable efforts to designate another Applicable Lending Office for any Loan or Letter of Credit affected by such event; provided that such efforts are made on terms that, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and its Applicable Lending Office(s) to suffer no material economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage; and provided, further, that nothing in this Section 3.03(e) shall affect or postpone any of the Secured Obligations of the Borrower or the rights of such Lender pursuant to Section 3.03(a), (b), (c) or (d).

Funding Losses

. Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable) from time to time, the Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of:

any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loan or Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan; or

any failure by the Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Loan (other than a Base Rate Loan) on the date or in the amount notified by the Borrower;

including any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained.

For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to the Lenders under this Section 3.04, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loan made by it at the EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loan was in fact so funded.

Matters Applicable to All Requests for Compensation

Any Agent or any Lender claiming compensation under this Article III shall deliver a certificate to the Borrower setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder which shall be conclusive in the absence of demonstrable error. In determining such amount, such Agent or such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

With respect to any Lender’s claim for compensation under Section 3.02, Section 3.03, Section 3.04 or Section 3.07, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate such Lender for any amount incurred more than one hundred and eighty (180) days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the event that gives rise to such claim; provided that, if the circumstance giving rise to such claim is retroactive, then such 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect

#96808608v5

thereof. If any Lender requests compensation by the Borrower under Section 3.03, the Borrower may, by notice to such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable), suspend the obligation of such Lender to make or continue EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans or Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans, as applicable, from one Interest Period to another, or to convert Base Rate Loans into EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans or Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans, as applicable, until the event or condition giving rise to such request ceases to be in effect (in which case the provisions of Section 3.05(c) shall be applicable); provided that such suspension shall not affect the right of such Lender to receive the compensation so requested.

If the obligation of any Lender to make or continue any EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loan or Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loan from one Interest Period to another, or to convert Base Rate Loans into EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans or Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans shall be suspended pursuant to Section 3.05(b) hereof, such Lender’s EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans or Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans shall be automatically converted into Base Rate Loans on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for such EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans or Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans (or, in the case of an immediate conversion required by Section 3.02 or Section 3.07, on such earlier date as required by Law) and, unless and until such Lender gives notice as provided below that the circumstances specified in Section 3.02, Section 3.03, Section 3.04 or Section 3.07 hereof that gave rise to such conversion no longer exist:

to the extent that such Lender’s EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans or Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans have been so converted, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise be applied to such Lender’s EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans or Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans shall be applied instead to its Base Rate Loans; and

all Loans denominated in Dollars that would otherwise be made or continued from one Interest Period to another by such Lender as EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans or Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans shall be made or continued instead as Base Rate Loans, and all Base Rate Loans of such Lender that would otherwise be converted into EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans or Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans shall remain as Base Rate Loans.

If any Lender gives notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable) that the circumstances specified in Section 3.02, Section 3.03, Section 3.04 or Section 3.07 hereof that gave rise to the conversion of such Lender’s EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans or Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans pursuant to this Section 3.05 no longer exist (which such Lender agrees to do promptly upon such circumstances ceasing to exist) at a time when EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans or Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans made by other Lenders are outstanding, such Lender’s Base Rate Loans shall be automatically converted to EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans or Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans, as applicable, on the first day(s) of the next succeeding Interest Period(s) for such outstanding EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans or Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans, to the extent necessary so that, after giving effect thereto, all Loans held by the Lenders holding EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR

#96808608v5

Rate Loans or Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans and by such Lender are held pro rata (as to principal amounts, interest rate basis, and Interest Periods) in accordance with their respective Commitments.

Replacement of Lenders under Certain Circumstances

If at any time (i) any Lender requests reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to Section 3.01 or Section 3.03 as a result of any condition described in such Sections or any Lender ceases to make EurocurrencyAdjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans or Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans as a result of any condition described in Section 3.02 or Section 3.03 or Section 3.07, (ii) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or (iii) any Lender becomes a Non-Consenting Lender, then the Borrower may, on prior written notice to the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, and such Lender, replace such Lender by requiring such Lender to (and such Lender shall be obligated to) assign pursuant to Section 10.07(b) (with the assignment fee to be paid by the Borrower in such instance) all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (or, with respect to clause (iii) above, all of its rights and obligations with respect to the Class of Loans or Commitments that is the subject of the related consent, waiver or amendment) to one or more Eligible Assignees; provided that neither the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, nor any Lender shall have any obligation to the Borrower to find a replacement Lender or other such Person; and provided, further, that (A) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.03 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.01, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments and (B) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable Eligible Assignees shall have agreed to the applicable departure, waiver or amendment of the Loan Documents.

Any Lender being replaced pursuant to Section 3.06(a) above shall (i) execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption with respect to such Lender’s Commitment and outstanding Loans (and in the case of the Revolving Credit Facility, participations in L/C Obligations), as applicable (provided that the failure of any such Lender to execute an Assignment and Assumption shall not render such assignment invalid and such assignment shall be recorded in the applicable Register) and (ii) deliver Notes, if any, evidencing such Loans to the Borrower or Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable. Pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption, (A) the assignee Lender shall acquire all or a portion, as the case may be, of the assigning Lender’s Commitments and outstanding Loans (and in the case of the Revolving Credit Facility, participations in L/C Obligations), as applicable, (B) all obligations of the Loan Parties owing to the assigning Lender relating to the Loan Documents and participations so assigned shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender or the Loan Parties (as applicable) to such assigning Lender concurrently with such assignment and assumption, any amounts owing to the assigning Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) under Section 3.04 as a consequence of such assignment and, in the case of an assignment of Term Loans in connection with a Repricing Transaction, the premium, if any, that would have been payable by the Borrower on such date pursuant to Section 2.05(a)(iv) if such Lender’s Term Loans subject to such assignment had been prepaid on such date shall have been paid by the Borrower to the assigning Lender and (C) upon such payment and, if so requested by the assignee Lender, the assignor Lender shall deliver to the assignee Lender the appropriate Note or Notes executed by the Borrower, the assignee

#96808608v5

Lender shall become a Lender hereunder and the assigning Lender shall cease to constitute a Lender hereunder with respect to such assigned Loans, Commitments and participations, except with respect to indemnification provisions under this Agreement, which shall survive as to such assigning Lender.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, any Lender that acts as an L/C Issuer may not be replaced hereunder at any time that it has any Letter of Credit outstanding hereunder unless arrangements reasonably satisfactory to such L/C Issuer (including the furnishing of a back-up standby letter of credit in form and substance, and issued by an issuer reasonably satisfactory to such L/C Issuer, or the depositing of cash collateral into a cash collateral account in amounts and pursuant to arrangements reasonably satisfactory to such L/C Issuer) have been made with respect to each such outstanding Letter of Credit.

In the event that (i) the Borrower or the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, have requested that the Lenders (A) consent to an extension of the Maturity Date of any Class of Loans as permitted by Section 2.15, (B) consent to a departure or waiver of any provisions of the Loan Documents or (C) agree to any amendment thereto, (ii) the consent, waiver or amendment in question requires the agreement of all affected Lenders in accordance with the terms of Section 10.01 or all the Lenders with respect to a certain Class of the Loans and (iii) the Required Lenders have agreed to such consent, waiver or amendment, then any Lender who does not agree to such consent, waiver or amendment shall be deemed a “Non-Consenting Lender.”

Inability to Determine Rates (Revolving Credit Facility)

. With respect to the Revolving Credit Facility:

If the Revolver Agent or the Required Revolving Credit Lenders reasonably determine in good faith that for any reason, in connection with any request for a Revolver SOFR Loan or a conversion thereto or a continuation thereof, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate or the Revolver Term SOFR Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loan under the Revolving Credit Facility, or the Required Revolving Credit Lenders determine that the Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to such proposed Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan for the applicable amount and the Interest Period of such Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loan, and the Required Revolving Credit Lenders have provided notice of such determination to the Revolver Agent, the Revolver Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Revolving Credit Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of the Revolving Credit Lenders to make or maintain Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans under the Revolving Credit Facility shall be suspended until the Revolver Agent (upon the instruction of the Required Revolving Credit Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.

With respect to the Revolving Credit Facility: notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, if a Revolver Benchmark Transition Event and its related Revolver Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the

#96808608v5

Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Revolver Benchmark, then (x) if a Revolver Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (1) of the definition of “Revolver Benchmark Replacement” for such Revolver Benchmark Replacement Date, such Revolver Benchmark Replacement will replace such Revolver Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such Revolver Benchmark setting and subsequent Revolver Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (y) if a Revolver Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (2) of the definition of “Revolver Benchmark Replacement” for such Revolver Benchmark Replacement Date, such Revolver Benchmark Replacement will replace such Revolver Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Revolver Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Revolver Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Revolving Credit Lenders 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 Revolver Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Revolver Benchmark Replacement from Required Revolving Credit Lenders.

In connection with the implementation of a Revolver Benchmark Replacement, the Revolver Agent will have the right to make the Revolver 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 Revolver Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

The Revolver Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Revolving Credit Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Revolver Benchmark Transition Event and its related Revolver Benchmark Replacement Date, (ii) the implementation of any Revolver Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Revolver Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Revolver Benchmark pursuant to Section 3.07(e) and (v) the commencement or conclusion of any Revolver Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Revolver Agent or, if applicable, any Revolving Credit Lender (or group of Revolving Credit Lenders) pursuant to this Section 3.07, 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 or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 3.07.

With respect to the Revolving Credit Facility: notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Revolver Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Revolver Benchmark is a term rate (including Revolver Term SOFR Rate) and either (A) any tenor for such Revolver Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Revolver Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such

#96808608v5

Revolver Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Revolver Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Revolver Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility for any Revolver 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 Revolver Benchmark (including a Revolver 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 Revolver Benchmark (including a Revolver Benchmark Replacement), then the Revolver Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility for all Revolver Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

With respect to the Revolving Credit Facility: upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Revolver Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any request for a Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Revolver Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Revolver Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans. During any Revolver Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Revolver Benchmark is not a Revolver Available Tenor, the component of Base Rate based upon the then-current Revolver Benchmark or such tenor for such Revolver Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of Base Rate.

Survival

. All of the Borrower’s obligations under this Article III shall survive termination of the Aggregate Commitments and repayment of all other Secured Obligations hereunder and any assignment of rights by or replacement of a Lender.

Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries

The Borrower may designate any Restricted Subsidiary to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if that designation would not cause an Event of Default. If a Restricted Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the aggregate fair market value of all outstanding Investments owned by the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will be deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of the designation and will reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments pursuant to Section 7.06 or under one or more clauses of the definition of Permitted Investments, as determined by the Borrower. That designation will only be permitted if the Investment would be permitted at that time and if the Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary. The Borrower

#96808608v5

may redesignate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary if that redesignation would not cause an Event of Default.

Any designation of a Subsidiary of the Borrower as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will be evidenced to the Administrative Agent by an Officer’s Certificate certifying that such designation complies with the preceding conditions and was permitted by Section 7.06.

The Borrower may at any time designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that such designation will be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of any outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary, and such designation will only be permitted if (1) such Indebtedness is permitted under Section 7.03 (including pursuant to Section 7.06(b)(v) treating such redesignation as an acquisition for the purpose of such clause (v)), calculated on a pro forma basis as if such designation had occurred at the beginning of the applicable reference period; and (2) no Default or Event of Default would be in existence following such designation. Any such designation by the Borrower shall be evidenced to the Administrative Agent by an Officer’s Certificate certifying that such designation complies with the preceding condition.

Payment of Taxes

. Except to the extent prohibited by Debtor Relief Laws and not otherwise authorized by the Bankruptcy Court prior to the Conversion Date (or with respect to any Designated Entities in the event of a Staggered Emergence, their emergence from bankruptcy), the Borrower will pay and discharge or cause to be paid and discharged, and will cause each of the Restricted Subsidiaries to pay and discharge, all Taxes imposed upon it or upon its income or profits, or upon any properties belonging to it, in each case on a timely basis, and all lawful claims which, if unpaid, may reasonably be expected to become a lien or charge upon any properties of the Borrower or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries not otherwise permitted under this Agreement; provided that neither the Borrower nor any of the Restricted Subsidiaries shall be required to pay or cause to be paid any such Tax or claim which is being contested in good faith and by proper proceedings if it has maintained adequate reserves with respect thereto in accordance with GAAP, or which, in the case of any such claim, would not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to constitute a Material Adverse Effect.

Nature of Business

. The Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries will engage only in material lines of business substantially similar to those lines of business conducted by the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries on the Closing Date or the Conversion Date or any business reasonably related, complementary or ancillary thereto.

CoBank Equity and Security

So long as CoBank (or its affiliate) is a Lender hereunder, Borrower shall (i) maintain its status as an entity eligible to borrow from CoBank (or its affiliate) and (ii) acquire equity in CoBank in such amounts and at such times as CoBank may require in accordance with CoBank’s Bylaws and Capital Plan (as each may be amended from time to time), except that the maximum amount of equity that Borrower may be required to purchase in CoBank in connection with the Loans made by CoBank (or its affiliate) may not exceed the maximum amount permitted by the Bylaws and Capital Plan at the time this Agreement is entered into. Borrower acknowledges receipt of a copy of (x) CoBank’s most recent annual report, and if more recent, CoBank’s latest quarterly report, (y) CoBank’s Notice to Prospective Stockholders and (z) CoBank’s Bylaws and Capital Plan, which

#96808608v5

describe the nature of all of the CoBank Equities as well as capitalization requirements, and agrees to be bound by the terms thereof.

Each party hereto acknowledges that CoBank’s Bylaws and Capital Plan (as each may be amended from time to time) shall govern (i) the rights and obligations of the parties with respect to the CoBank Equities and any patronage refunds or other distributions made on account thereof or on account of Borrower’s patronage with CoBank, (ii) Borrower’s eligibility for patronage distributions from CoBank (in the form of CoBank Equities and cash) and (iii) patronage distributions, if any, in the event of a sale of a participation interest. CoBank reserves the right to assign or sell participations in all or any part of its (or its affiliate’s) Commitments or outstanding Loans hereunder on a non-patronage basis.

Notwithstanding anything herein or in any other Loan Document, each party hereto acknowledges that: (i) CoBank has a statutory first Lien pursuant to the Farm Credit Act of 1971 (as amended from time to time) on all CoBank Equities that the Borrower may now own or hereafter acquire, which statutory Lien shall be for CoBank’s (or its affiliate’s) sole and exclusive benefit; (ii) during the existence of any Event of Default, CoBank may at its sole discretion, but shall not be required to, foreclose on its statutory first Lien on the CoBank Equities and/or set off the value thereof or of any cash patronage against the Obligations; (iii) during the existence of any Event of Default, CoBank may at its sole discretion, but shall not be required to, without notice except as required by applicable Laws, retire and cancel all or part of the CoBank Equities owned by or allocated to the Borrower in accordance with the Farm Credit Act of 1971 (as amended from time to time) and any regulations promulgated pursuant thereto in total or partial liquidation of the Obligations for such value as may be required pursuant applicable Laws and CoBank’s Bylaws and Capital Plan (as each may be amended from time to time); (iv) the CoBank Equities shall not constitute security for the Obligations due to the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or any other Secured Party; (v) to the extent that any of the Loan Documents create a Lien on the CoBank Equities, such Lien shall be for CoBank’s (or its affiliate’s) sole and exclusive benefit and shall not be subject to pro rata sharing hereunder; (vi) any setoff effectuated pursuant to the preceding clauses (ii) or (iii) may be undertaken whether or not the Obligations are currently due and payable; and (vii) CoBank shall have no obligation to retire the CoBank Equities upon any Event of Default, Default or any other default by Borrower or any other Loan Party, or at any other time, either for application to the Obligations or otherwise. Borrower acknowledges that any corresponding tax liability associated with CoBank’s application of the value of the CoBank Equities to any portion of the Obligations is the sole responsibility of Borrower.

[Reserved]

Maintenance of Ratings

. The Borrower will use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, on or as promptly as practicable following the Conversion Date, (i) the public corporate rating or the public corporate family rating for the Company, as determined by the applicable Rating Agency, and (ii) ratings with respect to the Initial Term Loans, in each case from at least two Rating Agencies after giving effect to the consummation of the Acceptable Reorganization

#96808608v5

Plan (it being understood and agreed that in no event shall the Borrower be required to obtain or maintain ratings of a certain level).

Limitation on Affiliate Transactions.

The Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to enter into or conduct any transaction (including the purchase, sale, lease or exchange of any property or the rendering of any service) with any Affiliate of the Borrower (an “Affiliate Transaction”) involving aggregate value in excess of $100.0 million unless:

the terms of such Affiliate Transaction taken as a whole are not materially less favorable to the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, than those that could be obtained in a comparable transaction at the time of such transaction or the execution of the agreement providing for such transaction in arm’s length dealings with a Person who is not such an Affiliate; and

in the event such Affiliate Transaction involves an aggregate value in excess of $250.0 million, the terms of such transaction have been approved by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors.

Any Affiliate Transaction shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements set forth in Section 6.19(a)(ii) if such Affiliate Transaction is approved by a majority of the Disinterested Directors, if any.

for all purposes under this Agreement, including for purposes of calculating the Consolidated First Lien Secured Leverage Ratio or the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio, as applicable, in connection with the incurrence, issuance or assumption of any Indebtedness pursuant to Sections 7.03(a) or (b) or the incurrence or creation of any Lien pursuant to the definition of “Permitted Liens,” the Borrower may elect, at its option, to treat all or any portion of the committed amount of any Indebtedness (and the issuance and creation of letters of credit and bankers’ acceptances thereunder) which is to be incurred (or any commitment in respect thereof) or secured by such Lien, as the case may be (any such committed amount elected until revoked as described below, the “Reserved Indebtedness Amount”), as being incurred as of such election date, and, if such Consolidated First Lien Secured Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio or other provision of this Agreement, as applicable, is complied with (or satisfied) with respect thereto on such election date, any subsequent borrowing or reborrowing thereunder (and the issuance and creation of letters of credit and bankers’ acceptances thereunder) will be deemed to be permitted under this Section 7.03 or the definition of “Permitted Liens,” as applicable, whether or not the Consolidated First Lien Secured Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio or other provision of this Agreement, as applicable, at the actual time of any subsequent borrowing or reborrowing (or issuance or creation of letters of credit or bankers’ acceptances thereunder) is complied with (or satisfied) for all purposes (including as to the absence of any continuing Default or Event of Default); provided that for purposes of subsequent calculations of the Consolidated First Lien Secured Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio or other provision of this Agreement, as applicable, the Reserved Indebtedness Amount shall be deemed to be outstanding, whether or not such amount is actually outstanding, for so long as such commitments are outstanding or until the Borrower revokes an election of a Reserved Indebtedness Amount;

[Reserved].

notwithstanding anything in this Section 7.03 to the contrary, in the case of any Indebtedness incurred to refinance Indebtedness initially incurred in reliance on a clause of Section 7.03(b) measured by reference to a percentage of LTM EBITDA at the time of incurrence, if such refinancing would cause the percentage of LTM EBITDA restriction to be exceeded if calculated based on the percentage of LTM EBITDA on the date of such

#96808608v5

refinancing, such percentage of LTM EBITDA restriction shall not be deemed to be exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced, plus accrued and unpaid interest, dividends, premiums (including tender premiums), defeasance costs, underwriting discounts, fees, costs and expenses (including original issue discount, upfront fees or similar fees) in connection with such refinancing; and

the amount of Indebtedness issued at a price that is less than the principal amount thereof will be equal to the amount of the liability in respect thereof determined in accordance with GAAP.

Accrual of interest, accrual of dividends, the accretion of accreted value, the accretion or amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness, the payment of dividends in the form of additional shares of Preferred Stock or Disqualified Stock or the reclassification of commitments or obligations not treated as Indebtedness due to a change in GAAP, will not be deemed to be an Incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes of this Section 7.03.

If at any time an Unrestricted Subsidiary becomes a Restricted Subsidiary, any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary shall be deemed to be Incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower as of such date (and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be Incurred as of such date under this Section 7.03, the Borrower, as applicable, shall be in default of this Section 7.03).

For purposes of determining compliance with any Dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness, the Dollar equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was Incurred, in the case of term debt, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit debt; provided, that if such Indebtedness is Incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable Dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such Dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed (a) the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced plus (b) the aggregate amount of accrued and unpaid interest, dividends, premiums (including tender premiums), defeasance costs, underwriting discounts, fees, costs and expenses (including original issue discount, upfront fees or similar fees) in connection with such refinancing.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 7.03, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary may Incur pursuant to this Section 7.03 shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies. The principal amount of any Indebtedness Incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if Incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing.

This Agreement will not treat (1) unsecured Indebtedness as subordinated or junior to Secured Indebtedness merely because it is unsecured or (2) senior Indebtedness as subordinated or junior to any other senior Indebtedness merely because it has a junior

#96808608v5

priority with respect to the same collateral or is secured by different collateral or because it is guaranteed by different obligors.

Merger and Consolidation

The Borrower will not consolidate with or merge with or into, or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all its assets, in one transaction or a series of related transactions, to any Person, unless:

the Borrower is the surviving Person or the resulting, surviving or transferee Person (the “Successor Company”) will be a Person organized or existing under the laws of the jurisdiction of the Borrower or the United States of America, any State of the United States or the District of Columbia or any territory thereof and the Successor Company (if not the Borrower) will expressly assume all the obligations of the Borrower under the Loan Documents;

immediately after giving effect to such transaction (and treating any Indebtedness that becomes an obligation of the applicable Successor Company or any Subsidiary of the applicable Successor Company as a result of such transaction as having been incurred by the applicable Successor Company or such Subsidiary at the time of such transaction), no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

immediately after giving pro forma effect to such transaction, either (a) the applicable Successor Company would be able to incur at least an additional $1.00 of Indebtedness pursuant to Section 7.03(a), or (b) the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries would not be higher than it was immediately prior to giving effect to such transaction;

to the extent any assets of the Person which is merged or consolidated with or into the Borrower are assets of the type which would constitute Collateral under the Collateral Documents, the Borrower or the Successor Company, as applicable, will take such action, if any, as may be reasonably necessary to cause such property and assets to be made subject to the Lien of the applicable Collateral Documents in the manner and to the extent required in this Agreement or the applicable Collateral Documents and shall take all reasonably necessary action so that such Lien is perfected to the extent required by the applicable Collateral Documents; and

the Administrative Agent and Revolver Agent shall have received all documentation and other information required by regulatory authorities under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including without limitation the USA PATRIOT Act reasonably requested by the Lenders.

[Reserved]

The Successor Company will succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Borrower under this Agreement, and the Borrower will automatically and unconditionally be released and discharged from its obligations under this Agreement (except in the case of a lease).

[Reserved].

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 7.04, (i) the Borrower may consolidate or otherwise combine with, merge into or transfer all or part of its properties and assets to a Guarantor, (ii) the Borrower may consolidate or otherwise combine with or merge into an Affiliate incorporated or organized for the purpose of changing the legal domicile of the Borrower, reincorporating the Borrower in another jurisdiction, or changing the legal form of the Borrower, (iii) any Restricted Subsidiary may consolidate or otherwise combine with, merge into or transfer all or part of its properties and assets to the

#96808608v5

Borrower or a Guarantor, (iv) any Restricted Subsidiary may consolidate or otherwise combine with, merge into or transfer all or part of its properties and assets to any other Restricted Subsidiary and (v) the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries may complete any Permitted Intercompany Activities, Permitted Tax Restructuring or related transactions; provided, that the entity that is surviving or the resulting, surviving or transferee entity will be an entity organized or existing under the laws of the jurisdiction of the Borrower or the United States of America, any State of the United States or the District of Columbia or any territory thereof.

The foregoing provisions (other than the requirements of Section 7.04(a)(B)) shall not apply to the creation of a new Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower.

Subject to certain limitations described herein governing release of a Guarantee upon the sale, disposition or transfer of a Guarantor, no Guarantor may consolidate with or merge with or into, or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all its assets, in one or a series of related transactions, to any Person, unless:

(A) the other Person is the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Guarantor or becomes a Guarantor concurrently with such transactions; or either (x) the Borrower or a Guarantor is the continuing Person or (y) the resulting, surviving or transferee Person expressly assumes all the obligations of the Guarantor under its Guarantee of the Secured Obligations, this Agreement and the Collateral Documents; and

(2) immediately after giving effect to such transactions, no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

such transactions constitute a sale, disposition or transfer of the Guarantor or the conveyance, transfer or lease of all or substantially all of the assets of the Guarantor (in each case other than to the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary) otherwise permitted by this Agreement; and

to the extent any assets of the Person which is merged, consolidated or amalgamated with or into such Guarantor are assets of the type which would constitute Collateral under the Collateral Documents, such Guarantor or the successor Person will take such action, if any, as may be reasonably necessary to cause such property and assets to be made subject to the Lien of the applicable Collateral Documents in the manner and to the extent required in this Agreement or the applicable Collateral Documents and shall take all reasonably necessary action so that such Lien in perfected to the extent required by the applicable Collateral Documents.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 7.04, any Guarantor may (a) consolidate or otherwise combine with, merge into or transfer all or part of its properties and assets to another Guarantor or the Borrower, (b) consolidate or otherwise combine with or merge into an Affiliate incorporated or organized for the purpose of changing the legal domicile of the Guarantor, reincorporating the Guarantor in another jurisdiction, or changing the legal form of the Guarantor, (c) convert into a corporation, partnership, limited partnership, limited liability company or trust organized or existing under the laws of the jurisdiction of organization of such Guarantor, (d) liquidate or dissolve or change its legal form if the Borrower determines in good faith that such action is in the best interests of the Borrower and (e) complete any Permitted Intercompany Activities, Permitted Tax Restructuring or related transactions. Notwithstanding anything

#96808608v5

to the contrary in this Section 7.04, the Borrower may contribute Capital Stock of any or all of its Subsidiaries to any Guarantor.

Any reference herein to a merger, consolidation, amalgamation, assignment, sale, disposition or transfer, or similar term, shall be deemed to apply to a division of or by a limited liability company, limited partnership or trust, or an allocation of assets to a series of a limited liability company, limited partnership or trust (or the unwinding of such a division or allocation), as if it were a merger, consolidation, amalgamation, assignment, sale, disposition or transfer, or similar term, as applicable, to, of or with a separate Person. Any division of a limited liability company, limited partnership or trust shall constitute a separate Person hereunder (and each division of any limited liability company, limited partnership or trust that is a Subsidiary, Restricted Subsidiary, Unrestricted Subsidiary, joint venture or any other like term shall also constitute such a Person or entity).

Limitation on Sales of Assets and Subsidiary Stock

The Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any Asset Disposition unless:

the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives consideration (including by way of relief from, or by any other Person assuming responsibility for, any liabilities, contingent or otherwise) at least equal to the fair market value (such fair market value to be determined on the date of contractually agreeing to such Asset Disposition), as determined in good faith by the Borrower of the shares and assets subject to such Asset Disposition (including, for the avoidance of doubt, if such Asset Disposition is a Permitted Asset Swap);

in any such Asset Disposition, or series of related Asset Dispositions (except to the extent the Asset Disposition is a Permitted Asset Swap) with a purchase price in excess of the (x) prior to the Conversion Date, $150.0 million and (y) after the Conversion Date, the greater of $150.0 million and 5.5% of LTM EBITDA, at least 75.0% of the consideration from such Asset Disposition, together with all other Asset Dispositions since the Closing Date (on a cumulative basis), (including by way of relief from, or by any other Person assuming responsibility for, any liabilities, contingent or otherwise) received by the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents (which determination may be made by the Borrower, at its option, either (x) on the date of contractually agreeing to such Asset Disposition or (y) at the time the Asset Disposition is completed); and

the Borrower complies with Section 2.05(b)(ii).

For the purposes of Section 7.05(a)(ii) hereof, the following shall be deemed to be cash:

the assumption by the transferee of Indebtedness or other liabilities, contingent or otherwise, of the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary (other than Disqualified Stock, Subordinated Indebtedness of the Borrower or a Guarantor or Preferred Stock of a Guarantor) or the release of the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary from all liability on such Indebtedness or other liability in connection with such Asset Disposition;

securities, notes or other obligations received by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary from the transferee that are converted by, the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash or Cash Equivalents, or by their terms are required to be satisfied for

cash and Cash Equivalents (to the extent of the cash or Cash Equivalents received), in each case, within 270 days following the closing of such Asset Disposition;

any Capital Stock or assets of the kind referred to in Section 2.05(b)(ii)(B)(i) or (ii);

Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary that is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of such Asset Disposition, to the extent that the Borrower and each other Restricted Subsidiary are released from any Guarantee of payment of such Indebtedness in connection with such Asset Disposition;

consideration consisting of Indebtedness of the Borrower (other than Disqualified Stock or Subordinated Indebtedness) received after the Conversion Date from Persons who are not the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary; and

after the Conversion Date, any Designated Non-Cash Consideration received by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary in such Asset Dispositions having an aggregate fair market value, taken together with all other Designated Non-Cash Consideration received pursuant to this Section 7.05 that is at that time outstanding, not to exceed the greater of $900.0 million and 32.5% of LTM EBITDA (with the fair market value of each item of Designated Non-Cash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value).

Restricted Payments

The Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, directly, to:

declare or pay any dividend or make any distribution on or in respect of the Borrower’s or any Restricted Subsidiary’s Capital Stock (including any such payment in connection with any merger or consolidation involving the Borrower or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries) except:

dividends, payments or distributions payable in Capital Stock of the Borrower (other than Disqualified Stock) or in options, warrants or other rights to purchase such Capital Stock of the Borrower; and

dividends, payments or distributions payable to the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary (and, in the case of any such Restricted Subsidiary making such dividend or distribution, to holders of its Capital Stock other than the Borrower or another Restricted Subsidiary on no more than a pro rata basis, taking into account any Preferred Stock);

#96808608v5

Payment is made on or prior to the Conversion Date or (y) at the time the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary makes such Restricted Payment:

other than in the case of a Restricted Investment (but, in the case of the requirement in this clause (A), only if the Required Revolving Credit Lenders have consented in writing to such exclusion for Restricted Investments), no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (or would immediately thereafter result therefrom);

the aggregate amount of such Restricted Payment and all other Restricted Payments made subsequent to the Conversion Date (and not returned or rescinded) (including Permitted Payments made pursuant to Section 7.06(b)(i) (without duplication) and (b)(vii), but excluding all other Restricted Payments permitted by Section 7.06(b)) would exceed the sum of (without duplication):

(1)an amount equal to the Borrower’s LTM EBITDA for the period (treated as one accounting period) from the first day of the first fiscal quarter subsequent to the Conversion Date to the end of the most recent fiscal quarter ending prior to the date of such Restricted Payment for which consolidated financial statements are available (which may be internal financial statements), less 1.4 times the Borrower’s Fixed Charges for such period; provided, that (x) immediately after giving pro forma effect to the payment of any such Restricted Payment made in reliance on this subclause (1), the Consolidated First Lien Secured Leverage Ratio shall be no greater than 1.35 to 1.00 and (y) if the Company elects to undertake the Staggered Emergence, no Restricted Payment shall be made in reliance on this sub-clause (1) until the first date after such date on which each Designated Entity is a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower;

(5)in the case of the redesignation of an Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary or the merger, amalgamation or consolidation of an Unrestricted Subsidiary into the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary or the transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of an Unrestricted Subsidiary to the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary after the Conversion Date, the fair market value of the Investment in such Unrestricted Subsidiary (or the assets transferred), as determined in good faith by the Borrower, at the time of the redesignation of such Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary or at the time of such merger, amalgamation or consolidation or transfer of assets (after taking into consideration any Indebtedness associated with the Unrestricted Subsidiary so designated or merged, amalgamated or consolidated or Indebtedness associated with the assets so transferred), other than to the extent of the amount of the Investment that constituted a Permitted Investment or was made under Section 7.06(b)(xvii) and will increase the amount available under the applicable clause of the definition of “Permitted Investment” or Section 7.06(b)(xvii), as the case may be; and

with the provisions of this Agreement as if it were and is deemed at such time to be a Restricted Payment at the time of such notice;

any prepayment, purchase, repurchase, redemption, defeasance, discharge, retirement or other acquisition of Capital Stock, including any accrued and unpaid dividends thereon (“Treasury Capital Stock”) or Subordinated Indebtedness made by exchange (including any such exchange pursuant to the exercise of a conversion right or privilege in connection with which cash is paid in lieu of the issuance of fractional shares) for, or out of the proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale of, Capital Stock of the Borrower or any Parent Entity to the extent contributed to the Borrower (in each case, other than Disqualified Stock or Designated Preferred Stock or Cure Amount) (“Refunding Capital Stock”), (b) the declaration and payment of dividends on Treasury Capital Stock out of the proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale or issuance (other than through the issuance of Disqualified Stock or Designated Preferred Stock, to a Subsidiary of the Borrower or to an employee stock ownership plan or any trust established by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries); and (c) if immediately prior to the retirement of Treasury Capital Stock, the declaration and payment of dividends thereon was permitted under Section 7.06(b)(xiii) hereof, the declaration and payment of dividends on the Refunding Capital Stock (other than Refunding Capital Stock the proceeds of which were used to redeem, repurchase, retire or otherwise acquire any Capital Stock of a Parent Entity) in an aggregate amount per year no greater than the aggregate amount of dividends per annum that were declarable and payable on such Treasury Capital Stock immediately prior to such retirement;

#96808608v5

case of each of clauses (A) and (B), will not be deemed to constitute a Restricted Payment for purposes of this Section 7.06 or any other provision of this Agreement;

For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 7.06 shall not restrict the making of, or dividends or other distributions in amounts sufficient to make, any “AHYDO Payment”

#96808608v5

with respect to any Indebtedness of any Parent Entity, the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries permitted to be Incurred under this Agreement.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Final DIP Order prior to the Conversion Date, if any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Administrative Agent may, and shall, at the request of the Required Lenders, take any or all of the following actions (and if a Revolver Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Revolver Agent may, and shall, at the request of the Required Revolving Credit Lenders, and in such case only with respect to the Revolving Credit Commitments, Revolving Credit Loans, L/C Obligations, any Letters of Credit and L/C Credit Extensions):

declare the commitment of each Lender to make Loans and any obligation of the L/C Issuer to make L/C Credit Extensions to be terminated, whereupon such commitments and obligation shall be terminated;

declare the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon, and all other amounts owing or payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document to be immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower;

require that the Borrower Cash Collateralizes the L/C Obligations (in an amount equal to the then Outstanding Amount thereof); and

exercise on behalf of itself and the Lenders all rights and remedies available to it and the Lenders under the Loan Documents or applicable Law;

provided that (i) upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under Section 8.01(f), the obligation of each Lender to make Loans and any obligation of the L/C Issuer to make L/C Credit Extensions shall automatically terminate, the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans and all interest and other amounts as aforesaid shall automatically become due and payable, and the obligation of the Borrower to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations as aforesaid shall automatically become effective, in each case without further act of the Administrative Agent, Revolver Agent or any Lender and (ii) prior to the Conversion Date, with respect to enforcement of Liens or other remedies with respect to the Collateral of the Debtors, the Administrative Agent shall provide the Borrower at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice to the taking of such action; provided further that during such period, any party in interest shall be entitled to seek an emergency hearing with the Bankruptcy Court, for the sole purpose of contesting whether an Event of Default has occurred and/or is continuing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Designated Entities shall not be included in determining whether an Event of Default under clause (e), (f), (g) or (h) of Section 8.01 has occurred or is continuing to the extent related to, arising from, or in connection with the Staggered Emergence.

Exclusion of Immaterial Subsidiaries

. Solely for the purpose of determining whether a Default has occurred under clause (e), (f), (g) or (h) of Section 8.01, any reference in any such clause to any Restricted Subsidiary or Loan Party shall be deemed not to include any Subsidiary that is an Immaterial Subsidiary or at such time could, upon designation by the Borrower, become an Immaterial Subsidiary affected by any event or circumstances referred to in any such clause unless the Consolidated EBITDA of such Subsidiary together with the Consolidated EBITDA of all other Subsidiaries affected by such event or circumstance referred to in such

#96808608v5

clause, shall exceed 5.0% of the Consolidated EBITDA of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries.

Application of Funds

. If the circumstances described in Section 2.12(g) have occurred, or after the exercise of remedies provided for in Section 8.02 (or after the Loans have automatically become immediately due and payable and the L/C Obligations have automatically been required to be Cash Collateralized as set forth in the proviso to Section 8.02), including in any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, any amounts received on account of the Secured Obligations (and proceeds of Collateral) be applied by the Administrative Agent, subject to (x) any Customary Intercreditor Agreement then in effect and (y) the terms of the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement, in each case, in the following order:

First, to payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (other than principal and interest, but including Attorney Costs payable under Section 10.04 and amounts payable under Article III) payable to each Agent in its capacity as such;

Second, to payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting fees, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal, interest, and obligations under Secured Hedge Agreements and Secured Cash Management Obligations) payable to the Lenders (including Attorney Costs payable under Section 10.04 and amounts payable under Article III), ratably among them in proportion to the amounts described in this clause Second payable to them;

Third, to payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid interest (including, but not limited to, post-petition interest), ratably among the Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Third payable to them;

Fourth, to payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting unpaid principal, Unreimbursed Amounts or face amounts of the Loans, L/C Borrowings and Swap Termination Value under Secured Hedge Agreements and Secured Cash Management Obligations and for the account of the L/C Issuers, to Cash Collateralize that portion of L/C Obligations comprised of the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit, ratably among the Secured Parties in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Fourth held by them;

Fifth, to the payment of all other Secured Obligations that are due and payable to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such Secured Obligations owing to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties on such date; and

Last, the balance, if any, after all of the Secured Obligations have been paid in full, to the Borrower or as otherwise required by Law.

Subject to Section 2.03(c), amounts used to Cash Collateralize the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit pursuant to clause Fourth above shall be applied to satisfy drawings under such Letters of Credit as they occur. If any amount remains on deposit as Cash Collateral after all Letters of Credit have either been fully drawn or expired, such remaining amount shall be applied to the other Secured Obligations, if any, in the order set forth above and, if no Secured Obligations remain outstanding, to the Borrower.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) amounts received from the Borrower or any Guarantor that is not a “Eligible Contract Participant” (as defined in the Commodity Exchange Act) shall not be applied to the obligations that are Excluded Swap Obligations (it being understood, that in the event that any amount is applied to Secured Obligations other than Excluded Swap Obligations

#96808608v5

as a result of this clause (a), to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Administrative Agent shall make such adjustments as it determines are appropriate to distributions pursuant to clause Fourth above from amounts received from “Eligible Contract Participants” to ensure, as nearly as possible, that the proportional aggregate recoveries with respect to obligations described in clause Fourth above by the holders of any Excluded Swap Obligations are the same as the proportional aggregate recoveries with respect to other obligations pursuant to clause Fourth above) and (b) Secured Cash Management Obligations and Obligations under Secured Hedge Agreements shall be excluded from the application described above if the Administrative Agent has not received written notice thereof, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank. Each Cash Management Bank and Hedge Bank not a party to this Agreement that has given the notice contemplated by the preceding sentence shall, by such notice, be deemed to have acknowledged and accepted the appointment of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of Article IX hereof for itself and its Affiliates as if a “Lender” party hereto.

Right to Cure.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 8.01(b), in the event that the Borrower fails to comply with the requirement of the Financial Covenant as of the last day of any Test Period, the Borrower shall have the right, during the period beginning at the start of any fiscal quarter in which the Borrower determines that a breach of the Financial Covenant may occur, until the expiration of the tenth Business Day (the “Cure Period”) after the date on which financial statements with respect to the applicable Test Period in which the Financial Covenant is being measured are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 6.01, to receive a direct or indirect equity investment in cash in the form of common Capital Stock (or other Qualified Capital Stock reasonably acceptable to the Revolver Agent) (the “Cure Right”), and upon the receipt by the Borrower of net cash proceeds pursuant to the exercise of the Cure Right (the “Cure Amount”), the Financial Covenant shall be recalculated, giving effect to a pro forma increase to Consolidated EBITDA for such Test Period in an amount equal to such Cure Amount; provided, that (x) such pro forma adjustment to Consolidated EBITDA shall be given solely for the purpose of determining the existence of a Default or an Event of Default under the Financial Covenant with respect to any Test Period that includes the fiscal quarter for which such Cure Right was exercised and not for any other purpose under any Loan Document (including for purposes of determining pricing, mandatory prepayments and the availability or amount permitted pursuant to any covenant under Article VII) for the quarter with respect to which such Cure Right was exercised and (y) there shall be no reduction in Indebtedness in connection with any Cure Amounts for determining compliance with Section 7.07 and no Cure Amounts will reduce (or count towards) the Consolidated First Lien Secured Leverage Ratio or the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio for purposes of any calculation thereof for the fiscal quarter with respect to which such Cure Right was exercised.

If, after the exercise of the Cure Right and the recalculations pursuant to clause (a) above, the Borrower shall then be in compliance with the requirements of the Financial Covenant during such Test Period (including for purposes of Section 4.02), the Borrower shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of the Financial Covenant as of the relevant date of determination with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply therewith at such date, and the applicable Default or Event of Default under Section 8.01 that had occurred shall be deemed cured; provided, that (i) the Cure Right

#96808608v5

may be exercised on no more than five (5) occasions, (ii) in each four consecutive fiscal quarter period, there shall be no more than two fiscal quarters in respect of which the Cure Right is exercised, and (iii) with respect to any exercise of the Cure Right, the Cure Amount shall not be given effect in an amount greater than the amount required to cause the Borrower to be in compliance with the Financial Covenant.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, prior to the expiration of the Cure Period (x) the Lenders shall not be permitted to exercise any rights then available as a result of an Event of Default under Article VII on the basis of a breach of the Financial Covenant so as to enable the Borrower to consummate its Cure Rights as permitted under this Section 8.05(c) and (y) the Revolving Credit Lenders shall not be required to make any Credit Extension unless and until the Borrower has received the Cure Amount required to cause the Borrower to be in compliance with the Financial Covenant.

Administrative Agent and Other Agents

Appointment and Authorization of Agents

Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints, designates and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Each Revolving Credit Lender hereby irrevocably appoints, designates and authorizes the Revolver Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere herein or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent and Revolver Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall the Administrative Agent and Revolver Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender or participant, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent and Revolver Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” herein and in the other Loan Documents with reference to any 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 merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Lenders hereby expressly authorize the Collateral Agent to execute any and all documents (including releases) with respect to the Collateral and the rights of the Secured Parties with respect thereto, as contemplated by and in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents and the Collateral Documents and acknowledge and agree that any such action by any Agent shall bind the Lenders.

Each L/C Issuer shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and each such L/C Issuer shall have all of the benefits and immunities (i) provided to the Agents in this Article IX with

#96808608v5

respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by such L/C Issuer in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and the applications and agreements for letters of credit pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Agent” as used in this Article IX and in the definition of “Agent-Related Person” included such L/C Issuer with respect to such acts or omissions, and (ii) as additionally provided herein with respect to such L/C Issuer.

JPMCB shall also act as the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents, and each of the Lenders (in its capacities as a Lender, L/C Issuer (if applicable) and a potential Hedge Bank or Cash Management Bank) hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes JPMCB to act as the agent of (and to hold any security interest, charge or other Lien created by the Collateral Documents for and on behalf of or on trust for) such Lender for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to secure any of the Secured Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection, JPMCB, as “collateral agent” (and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.02 for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Collateral Documents, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Administrative Agent), shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article IX (including Section 9.07, as though such co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact were the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto.

Delegation of Duties

. The Administrative Agent and Revolver Agent may execute any of their respective duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Collateral Documents or of exercising any rights and remedies thereunder) by or through Affiliates (including without limitation, in the case of the Administrative Agent, J.P. Morgan Europe Limited), agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact, such sub-agents as shall be deemed necessary by the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, and shall be entitled to advice of counsel, both internal and external, and other consultants or experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent and Revolver Agent, as applicable, shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or sub-agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Liability of Agents

. No Agent-Related Person shall (a) be liable to any Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby, including their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein), or (b) be responsible in any manner to any Lender or participant for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by any Loan Party or any officer thereof, contained herein or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the perfection or priority of any Lien or security interest created or purported to be created under the Collateral

#96808608v5

Documents, or the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, or for any failure of any Loan Party or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lender or participant to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Loan Party or any Affiliate thereof. No Agent shall 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 such Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders or Required Revolving Credit Lenders, as applicable (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that such Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its judgment or the judgment of its counsel, may expose such Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Law. No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders or Required Revolving Credit Lenders, as applicable (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Reliance by Agents

Each Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, communication, signature, resolution, representation, notice, request, consent, certificate, instrument, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, electronic mail message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to any Loan Party), independent accountants and other experts selected by such Agent and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. Each Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under any Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders or Required Revolving Credit Lenders, as applicable, as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Each Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders or Required Revolving Credit Lenders, as applicable (or such greater number of Lenders as may be expressly required hereby in any instance) and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders.

For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Section 4.01, each Lender that has signed this Agreement 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 a Lender unless the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, shall have received

#96808608v5

notice from such Lender prior to the proposed Closing Date specifying its objection thereto.

Notice of Default

. The Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, for the account of the Lenders, unless the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, shall have received written notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” The Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. Subject to the other provisions of this Article IX, (i) the Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to any Event of Default as may be directed by the Required Lenders, and (ii) the Revolver Agent shall take such action (only with respect to the Revolving Credit Commitments, Revolving Credit Loans, L/C Obligations, Letters of Credit and L/C Credit Extensions) with respect to any Revolver Event of Default as may be directed by the Required Revolving Credit Lenders, in each case in accordance with Article VIII; provided that (x) unless and until the Administrative Agent has received any such direction, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Lenders and (y) unless and until the Revolver Agent has received any such direction, the Revolver Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Revolver Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Revolving Credit Lenders.

Credit Decision; Disclosure of Information by Agents

. Each Lender acknowledges that no Agent-Related Person has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by any Agent hereafter taken, including any consent to and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of any Loan Party or any Affiliate thereof, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related Person to any Lender as to any matter, including whether Agent-Related Persons have disclosed material information in their possession. Each Lender represents to each Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their respective Subsidiaries, and all applicable bank or other regulatory Laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to the Borrower and the other Loan Parties hereunder. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by any Agent herein, such Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other

#96808608v5

condition or creditworthiness of any of the Loan Parties or any of their respective Affiliates which may come into the possession of any Agent-Related Person.

Indemnification of Agents

. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Lenders shall indemnify upon demand each Agent-Related Person (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of any Loan Party and without limiting the obligation of any Loan Party to do so), pro rata, and hold harmless each Agent-Related Person from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by it in its capacity as an Agent-Related Person; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to any Agent-Related Person of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities resulting from such Agent-Related Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders or Required Revolving Credit Lenders, as applicable, (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be required by the Loan Documents) shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section 9.07. In the case of any investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise to any Indemnified Liabilities, this Section 9.07 applies whether any such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Lender or any other Person. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse the Administrative Agent, and each Revolving Credit Lender shall reimburse the Revolver Agent, in each case upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including Attorney Costs) incurred by the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Borrower, provided that such reimbursement by the Lenders shall not affect the Borrower’s continuing reimbursement obligations with respect thereto, if any. The undertaking in this Section 9.07 shall survive termination of the Aggregate Commitments, the payment of all other Obligations and the resignation of the Administrative Agent and/or the Revolver Agent.

Agents in their Individual Capacities

. JPMCB, GS Bank and their respective Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire Capital Stock in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with each of the Loan Parties and their respective Affiliates as though JPMCB were not the Administrative Agent and GS Bank were not the Revolver Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Lenders. The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, JPMCB, GS Bank and their respective Affiliates may receive information regarding any Loan Party or any Affiliate of a Loan Party (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Loan Party or such Affiliate) and acknowledge that the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to its Loans, JPMCB and GS Bank, as applicable, shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise such rights and powers as though it were not the Administrative Agent

#96808608v5

or Revolver Agent, as applicable, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” include JPMCB and GS Bank, as applicable, in its individual capacity.

Successor Agents

. The Administrative Agent may resign as the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the Lenders and the Borrower, and the Revolver Agent may resign as the Revolver Agent upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the Revolving Credit Lenders and the Borrower. If the Collateral Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which appointment of a successor agent shall require the consent of the Borrower at all times other than during the existence of an Event of Default under Section 8.01(f) or (g) (which consent of the Borrower shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the Collateral Agent, the Collateral Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and the Borrower, a successor agent from among the Lenders. If the Administrative Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Term Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which appointment of a successor agent shall require the consent of the Borrower at all times other than during the existence of an Event of Default under Section 8.01(f) or (g) (which consent of the Borrower shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Term Lenders and the Borrower, a successor agent from among the Lenders. If the Revolver Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Revolving Credit Lenders shall appoint from among the Revolving Credit Lenders a successor agent for the Revolving Credit Lenders, which appointment of a successor agent shall require the consent of the Borrower at all times other than during the existence of an Event of Default under Section 8.01(f) or (g) (which consent of the Borrower shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the Revolver Agent, the Revolver Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Revolving Credit Lenders and the Borrower, a successor agent from among the Revolving Credit Lenders. In each case, upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor agent hereunder, the Person acting as such successor agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable and the term “Collateral Agent”, “Administrative Agent” or “Revolver Agent”, as applicable, shall mean such successor collateral agent, administrative agent or revolver agent and/or supplemental administrative agent, as the case may be (and the term “Collateral Agent” shall mean such successor collateral agent and/or supplemental agent, as described in Section 9.01(c)), and the retiring Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as the applicable Agent shall be terminated. After the retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as the applicable Agent, the provisions of this Article IX and Section 10.04 and Section 10.05 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the applicable Agent under this Agreement. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as the applicable Agent by the date which is thirty (30) days following the retiring applicable Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring applicable Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the applicable Lenders shall perform all of the duties of the applicable Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders, Required Term Lenders or the Required Revolving Credit Lenders, as applicable, appoint a successor agent as provided for above (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the L/C Issuer under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Collateral Agent shall continue to hold such collateral

#96808608v5

security until such time as a successor Collateral Agent is appointed). Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the applicable Agent hereunder by a successor and upon the execution and filing or recording of such financing statements, or amendments thereto, and such amendments or supplements to any mortgages, and such other security agreements, instruments or notices, as may be necessary or desirable, or as the Required Lenders may reasonably request, in order to (a) continue the perfection of the Liens granted or purported to be granted by the Collateral Documents or (b) otherwise ensure that the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement is satisfied, the applicable Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, discretion, privileges, and duties of the retiring applicable Agent, and the retiring applicable Agent shall, to the extent not previously discharged, be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents.

Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim

. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or L/C Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, L/C Obligations and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Agents (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Agents and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Agents under Section 2.09 and Section 10.04) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and

any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Agents and their respective agents and counsel, and any other amounts due to the Administrative Agent under Section 2.09 and Section 10.04.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Secured Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

Collateral and Guaranty Matters

. The Lenders irrevocably agree:

that any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent under any Loan Document shall be automatically released (i) upon termination of the Aggregate Commitments and payment in full of all Secured Obligations (other than (x) obligations under Secured Hedge Agreements not yet due and payable, (y) Secured Cash Management Obligations not yet due and payable and (z) contingent

#96808608v5

indemnification obligations not yet accrued and payable), the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit (other than Letters of Credit that have been Cash Collateralized or backstopped or as to which other arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Revolver Agent and the applicable L/C Issuer have been made), (ii) at the time the property subject to such Lien is transferred as part of or in connection with any transfer permitted hereunder (including any Asset Disposition permitted hereunder) or under any other Loan Document to any Person other than any other Loan Party (provided that in the event of a transfer of assets from a Loan Party to another Loan Party organized in a different jurisdiction, the Collateral Agent shall, upon request of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, release such Lien if such transferee Loan Party takes all actions reasonably necessary to grant a Lien in such transferred assets to the Collateral Agent (to the extent required by the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement)) or in connection with the Staggered Emergence, (iii) subject to Section 10.01, if the release of such Lien is approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders, (iv) if the property subject to such Lien is owned by a Guarantor, upon release of such Guarantor from its obligations under its Guaranty pursuant to clause (b) or (c) below, (v) if the property subject to such Lien becomes Excluded Property or (vi) solely with respect to any Lien granted pursuant to the DIP Collateral Documents, upon the Conversion Date;

to release or subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is a Permitted Lien under clauses (i) or (l) (in the case of clause (l), upon the reasonable request of the Borrower, to the extent required by the terms of the agreements governing such Permitted Lien) of the definition thereof.

to release a Subsidiary Guarantor from the Guarantee Agreement, if such Subsidiary Guarantor ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary, or becomes an Excluded Subsidiary or is a Designated Entity, in each case as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder or designation permitted hereunder (as certified in writing delivered to the Administrative Agent by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower) or as a result of the Staggered Emergence (provided that the release of any Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under the Loan Documents solely as a result of such Subsidiary Guarantor becoming an Excluded Subsidiary of the type described in clause (b) of the definition thereof shall only be permitted if such Subsidiary Guarantor becomes such an Excluded Subsidiary pursuant to a transaction with a third party that is not otherwise an Affiliate of the Borrower and such transaction was not for the primary purpose of releasing the Guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor).

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders shall confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s irrevocable authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty pursuant to this Section 9.11; provided that the absence of such confirmation shall not affect in any way the validity of the automatic releases of security interest or Guaranty contemplated by this Agreement or the Administrative Agent’s obligations to comply with the provisions of the immediately following sentence. In each case as specified in this Section 9.11, the Administrative Agent will promptly (and each Lender irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to), at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party may reasonably request (i) to evidence the release or subordination of such item of Collateral

#96808608v5

from the assignment and security interest granted under the Collateral Documents (including the filing of termination statements or the return of pledged collateral), or to evidence the release of such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section 9.11; provided, that prior to any such request, the Borrower shall have in each case delivered to the Administrative Agent written request therefor and, to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, a certificate of the Borrower to the effect that the release of such Guarantor or Collateral, as applicable, is in compliance with the Loan Documents. Each of the Lenders irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to rely on any such certificate without independent investigation and release its interests in any Collateral or release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Loan Documents pursuant to this ‎Section 9.11 (including, in each case of the foregoing, by filing applicable termination statements and/or returning pledged Collateral); it being acknowledged and agreed by each Secured Party that the Administrative Agent, in its capacity as such, shall have no liability with respect to relying on such certificate and taking actions to evidence such release.

Other Agents; Arrangers and Managers

. None of the Lenders, the Agents, the Lead Arrangers, the Documentation Agents, or other Persons identified on the facing page or signature pages of this Agreement as a “co-arranger” shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Lenders or other Persons so identified shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of the Lenders or other Persons so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder.

Appointment of Supplemental Administrative Agents

It is the purpose of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that there shall be no violation of any Law of any jurisdiction denying or restricting the right of banking corporations or associations to transact business as agent or trustee in such jurisdiction. It is recognized that in case of litigation under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and in particular in case of the enforcement of any of the Loan Documents, or in case the Administrative Agent deems that by reason of any present or future Law of any jurisdiction it may not exercise any of the rights, powers or remedies granted herein or in any of the other Loan Documents or take any other action which may be desirable or necessary in connection therewith, the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to appoint an additional individual or institution selected by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion as a separate trustee, co-trustee, administrative agent, collateral agent, administrative sub-agent or administrative co-agent (any such additional individual or institution being referred to herein individually as a “Supplemental Administrative Agent” and, collectively, as “Supplemental Administrative Agents”).

In the event that the Administrative Agent appoints a Supplemental Administrative Agent with respect to any Collateral, (i) each and every right, power, privilege or duty expressed or intended by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to be exercised by or vested in or conveyed to the Administrative Agent with respect to such Collateral shall be exercisable by and vest in such Supplemental Administrative Agent to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to enable such Supplemental Administrative Agent to exercise such rights, powers and privileges with respect to such Collateral and to

#96808608v5

perform such duties with respect to such Collateral, and every covenant and obligation contained in the Loan Documents and necessary to the exercise or performance thereof by such Supplemental Administrative Agent shall run to and be enforceable by either the Administrative Agent or such Supplemental Administrative Agent, and (ii) the provisions of this Article IX and of Section 10.04 and Section 10.05 that refer to the Administrative Agent shall inure to the benefit of such Supplemental Administrative Agent and all references therein to the Administrative Agent shall be deemed to be references to the Administrative Agent and/or such Supplemental Administrative Agent, as the context may require.

Should any instrument in writing from any Loan Party be required by any Supplemental Administrative Agent so appointed by the Administrative Agent for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to him or it such rights, powers, privileges and duties, the Borrower shall, or shall cause such Loan Party to, execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all such instruments promptly upon request by the Administrative Agent. In case any Supplemental Administrative Agent, or a successor thereto, shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of such Supplemental Administrative Agent, to the extent permitted by Law, shall vest in and be exercised by the Administrative Agent until the appointment of a new Supplemental Administrative Agent.

Withholding Tax

. To the extent required by any applicable Law, the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, may deduct or withhold from any payment to any Lender under any Loan Document an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. If the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, did not properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender for any reason (including because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax ineffective), such Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, as Tax or otherwise, including any penalties, additions to Tax or interest and together with all expenses (including legal expenses, allocated internal costs and out-of-pocket expenses) incurred, whether or not such Tax was correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, to set off and apply any amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, under this Section 9.14. The agreements in this Section 9.14 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of this Agreement and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, (1) the term “Lender” shall, for purposes of this Section

#96808608v5

9.14, include any L/C Issuer and (2) this Section 9.14 shall not limit or expand the obligations of the Borrower or any Guarantor under Section 3.01 or any other provision of this Agreement.

Secured Cash Management Obligations; Secured Hedge Agreements

. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein or in any Collateral Document, no Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank that obtains the benefits of Section 8.04, any Guaranty or any Collateral by virtue of the provisions hereof or of any Collateral Document shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document or otherwise in respect of the Collateral (including the release or impairment of any Collateral) other than in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only to the extent expressly provided in the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article IX to the contrary, the Administrative Agent and Revolver Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Secured Cash Management Obligations or Obligations arising under Secured Hedge Agreements unless the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, has received written notice of such Obligations, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, may reasonably request, from the applicable Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank, as the case may be.

Revolving Credit Commitments, (ii) to integrate or make administrative modifications with respect to borrowings and issuances of Letters of Credit, (iii) to integrate and terms or conditions from any Incremental Facility Amendment that are more restrictive than this Agreement in accordance with Section 2.14(d) and (iv) to make any amendments permitted by Section 1.03 and to give effect to any election to adopt IFRS and (b) without the consent of any Lender or L/C Issuer, the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent may (in their respective sole discretion, or shall, to the extent required by any Loan Document) enter into (w) any amendment, modification or waiver of any Loan Document, or enter into any new agreement or instrument, to effect the granting, perfection, protection, expansion or enhancement of any security interest in any Collateral or additional property to become Collateral for the benefit of the Secured Parties to give effect to, or protect any security interest for benefit of the Secured Parties, in any property or so that the security interests therein comply with applicable law or this Agreement or in each case to otherwise enhance the rights or benefits of any Lender under any Loan Document, (x) any applicable intercreditor agreement contemplated by this Agreement, in each case with the holders of Indebtedness permitted by this Agreement to be secured by the Collateral or (y) any amendment, modification or waiver of any Loan Document, or enter into any new agreement or instrument herein or in any other Loan Document, to the extent necessary to give effect to the incurrence under this Agreement of any refinancing of Prepetition Subsidiary Debt and/or Prepetition Second Lien Notes with Indebtedness in the form of term loans, so long as such Indebtedness is permitted under Section 7.03 hereof and the liens securing such Indebtedness (including priority thereof) is permitted under Section 7.01 hereof. Without limitation of the foregoing, the Borrower may, without the consent of any Lenders, upon delivery to the Administrative Agent (i) increase the interest rates (including any interest rate margins or interest rate floors), fees and other amounts payable to any Class or Classes of Lenders hereunder, (ii) increase, expand and/or extend the call protection provisions and any “most favored nation” provisions benefiting any Class or Classes of Lenders hereunder (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of Section 2.05(a)(iv) and 2.14(b)(ii) hereof) and/or (iii) with the consent of the Administrative Agent, modify any other provision hereunder or under any other Loan Document in a manner, as determined by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, more favorable to the then-existing Lenders or Class or Classes of Lenders, in each case in connection with the issuance or incurrence of any Incremental Facilities or other Indebtedness permitted hereunder, where the terms of any such Incremental Facilities or other Indebtedness are more favorable to the lenders thereof than the corresponding terms applicable to other Loans or Commitments then existing hereunder, and it is intended that one or more then-existing Classes of Loans or Commitments under this Agreement share in the benefit of such more favorable terms in order to comply with the provisions hereof relating to the incurrence of such Incremental Facilities or other Indebtedness; provided that the Administrative Agent will have at least five Business Days (or such shorter period to which the Administrative Agent may consent in its reasonable discretion) after written notice from the Borrower to provide such consent and may, in its sole discretion, provide written notice to the Lenders regarding any such proposed amendment.

#96808608v5

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in connection with any determination as to whether the Required Lenders have (A) consented (or not consented) to any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, (B) otherwise acted on any matter related to any Loan Document, or (C) directed or required the Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to or under any Loan Document, any Lender (other than (x) any Lender that is a Regulated Bank and (y) any Revolving Credit Lender) that, as a result of its interest in any total return swap, total rate of return swap, credit default swap or other derivative contract (other than any such total return swap, total rate of return swap, credit default swap or other derivative contract entered into pursuant to bona fide market making activities), has a net short position with respect to the Loans and/or Commitments (each, a “Net Short Lender”) shall have no right to vote any of its Loans and Commitments and shall be deemed to have voted its interest as a Lender without discretion in the same proportion as the allocation of voting with respect to such matter by Lenders who are not Net Short Lenders. For purposes of determining whether a Lender has a “net short position” on any date of determination: (i) derivative contracts with respect to the Loans and Commitments and such contracts that are the functional equivalent thereof shall be counted at the notional amount thereof in Dollars, (ii) notional amounts in other currencies shall be converted to the dollar equivalent thereof by such Lender in a commercially reasonable manner consistent with generally accepted financial practices and based on the prevailing conversion rate (determined on a mid-market basis) on the date of determination, (iii) derivative contracts in respect of an index that includes any of the Borrower or other Loan Parties or any instrument issued or guaranteed by any of the Borrower or other Loan Parties shall not be deemed to create a short position with respect to the Loans and/or Commitments, so long as (x) such index is not created, designed, administered or requested by such Lender and (y) the Borrower and other Loan Parties and any instrument issued or guaranteed by any of the Borrower or other Loan Parties, collectively, shall represent less than 5.0% of the components of such index, (iv) derivative transactions that are documented using either the 2014 ISDA Credit Derivatives Definitions or the 2003 ISDA Credit Derivatives Definitions (collectively, the “ISDA CDS Definitions”) shall be deemed to create a short position with respect to the Loans and/or Commitments if such Lender is a protection buyer or the equivalent thereof for such derivative transaction and (x) the Loans or the Commitments are a “Reference Obligation” under the terms of such derivative transaction (whether specified by name in the related documentation, included as a “Standard Reference Obligation” on the most recent list published by Markit, if “Standard Reference Obligation” is specified as applicable in the relevant documentation or in any other manner), (y) the Loans or the Commitments would be a “Deliverable Obligation” under the terms of such derivative transaction or (z) any of the Borrower or other Loan Parties (or its successor) is designated as a “Reference Entity” under the terms of such derivative transactions, and (v) credit derivative transactions or other derivatives transactions not documented using the ISDA CDS Definitions shall be deemed to create a short position with respect to the Loans and/or Commitments if such transactions are functionally equivalent to a transaction that offers the Lender protection in respect of the Loans or the Commitments,

#96808608v5

or as to the credit quality of any of the Borrower or other Loan Parties other than, in each case, as part of an index so long as (x) such index is not created, designed, administered or requested by such Lender and (y) the Borrower and other Loan Parties and any instrument issued or guaranteed by any of the Borrower or other Loan Parties, collectively, shall represent less than 5.0% of the components of such index. In connection with any such determination, each Lender (other than (x) any Lender that is a Regulated Bank and (y) any Revolving Credit Lender as of the Closing Date) shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent in writing that it is a Net Short Lender, or shall otherwise be deemed to have represented and warranted to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that it is not a Net Short Lender (it being understood and agreed that the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely on each such representation and deemed representation and shall have no duty to (x) inquire as to or investigate the accuracy of any such representation or deemed representation or (y) otherwise ascertain or monitor whether any Lender, Eligible Assignee or Participant or prospective Lender, Eligible Assignee or Participant is a Net Short Lender or make any calculations, investigations or determinations with respect to any derivative contracts and/or net short positions). Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not (A) be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to the Net Short Lenders or (B) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Loans to any Net Short Lender).

The Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, or the Borrower may, in their discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications.

#96808608v5

indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages).

Indemnification by the Borrower

. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless each Agent-Related Person, each Lender, the Lead Arrangers, and their respective Affiliates, and the directors, officers, employees, counsel, agents, advisors, and other representatives of any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, claims, and reasonable and documented or invoiced out-of-pocket fees and expenses (including reasonable Attorney Costs of one counsel for all Indemnitees and, if necessary, one firm of local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction (which may include a single special counsel acting in multiple jurisdictions) for all Indemnitees (and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, where the Indemnitee affected by such conflict informs the Borrower of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel, of another firm of counsel for such affected Indemnitee)) of any such Indemnitee arising out of or relating to any claim or any litigation or other proceeding (regardless of whether such Indemnitee is a party thereto and whether or not such proceedings are brought by the Borrower, its equity holders, its Affiliates, creditors or any other third person) that relates to the Transactions, including the financing contemplated hereby, of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out of or in connection with (a) the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance or administration of any Loan Document or any other agreement, letter or instrument delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, (b) any Commitment, Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any

#96808608v5

refusal by an L/C Issuer to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), or (c) any actual or alleged presence or Release or threat of Release of Hazardous Materials on, at, under or from any property currently or formerly owned or operated by the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any other Loan Party, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any other Loan Party, or (d) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory (including any investigation of, preparation for, or defense of any pending or threatened claim, investigation, litigation or proceeding) (all the foregoing, collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), in all cases, whether or not caused by or arising, in whole or in part, out of the negligence of the Indemnitee; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulted from (w) the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or of any of its controlled Affiliates or controlling Persons or any of the officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors or members of any of the foregoing, in each case who are involved in or aware of the Transactions (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision), (x) a material breach of the Loan Documents by such Indemnitee or one of its Affiliates (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision) and (y) disputes solely between and among such Indemnitees to the extent such disputes do not arise from any act or omission of the Borrower or any of its Affiliates (other than with respect to a claim against an Indemnitee acting in its capacity as an Agent or Lead Arranger or similar role under the Loan Documents unless such claim arose from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee). No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of any information or other materials obtained through IntraLinks or other similar information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement. No Indemnitee nor any Loan Party shall have any liability for any special, punitive, indirect or consequential damages relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or arising out of its activities in connection herewith or therewith (whether before or after the Closing Date); provided that nothing contained in this sentence shall limit the Borrower’s indemnification obligations under the Loan Documents to the extent such special, punitive, indirect or consequential damages are included in any third-party claim in connection with which any Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification hereunder. In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 10.05 applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Loan Party, its directors, managers, partners, stockholders or creditors or an Indemnitee or any other Person, whether or not any Indemnitee is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not any of the transactions contemplated hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents is consummated. All amounts due under this Section 10.05 shall be paid within ten (10) Business Days after demand therefor; provided, however, that such Indemnitee shall promptly refund such amount to the extent that there is a final judicial or arbitral determination that such Indemnitee was not entitled to indemnification or contribution rights with respect to such payment pursuant to the express terms of this Section 10.05. The agreements in this Section 10.05 shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt,

#96808608v5

this Section 10.05 shall not apply to Taxes other than Taxes that represent liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, etc., with respect to a non-Tax claim.

Payments Set Aside

. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of a Borrower is made to any Agent or any Lender, or any Agent or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share of any amount so recovered from or repaid by any Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate.

Successors and Assigns

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, except as otherwise provided herein (including without limitation as permitted under Section 7.04), neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.07(e), (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of Section 10.07(g) or (iv) to an SPC in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.07(h) (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 Section 10.07(e) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

the Borrower, provided that, no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment (1) of any Term Loan to any other Lender, any Affiliate of a Lender or any Approved Fund, (2) of any Revolving Credit Loans or Revolving Credit Commitment to any other Revolving Lender, any Affiliate of a Revolving Lender or any Approved Fund of a Revolving Lender or, (3) of any Term Loan, Revolving Credit Loans or Revolving Credit Commitment, if an Event of Default under Section 8.01(a) or under Section 8.01(f) has occurred and is continuing, to any Assignee; provided, further, that such consent shall be deemed to have been given if the Borrower has not responded within 10 Business Days after notice by the Administrative Agent (or in the case of the Revolving Credit Facility, the Revolver Agent);

#96808608v5

(1) in the case of the Revolving Credit Facility, the Revolver Agent and (2) in other cases, the Administrative Agent; provided that no consent of the Revolver Agent shall be required for an assignment with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility to another Revolving Credit Lender or an Affiliate of a Revolving Credit Lender, and no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment to another Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund;

each L/C Issuer at the time of such assignment, provided that no consent of such L/C Issuers shall be required for any assignment of a Term Loan; and

[Reserved].

Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans of any Class, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Revolver Agent or the Administrative Agent, as applicable) shall not be less than $5.0 million (in the case of the Revolving Credit Facility) or $1.0 million (in the case of a Term Loan) unless the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or in the case of the Revolving Credit Facility, the Revolver Agent) otherwise consents, provided that (1) no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default under Section 8.01(a) or under Section 8.01(f) has occurred and is continuing and (2) such amounts shall be aggregated in respect of each Lender and its Affiliates or Approved Funds, if any;

the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent (or in the case of the Revolving Credit Facility, the Revolver Agent) an Assignment and Assumption;

the Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent (or in the case of the Revolving Credit Facility, the Revolver Agent) an Administrative Questionnaire and any documentation required by Section 3.01(f);

the Assignee shall not be a natural person (or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of a natural person), a Disqualified Lender or, except to the extent permitted pursuant to Section 2.17 or Section 10.07(k), the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries;

the Assignee shall not be a Defaulting Lender.

This paragraph (b) shall not prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights and obligations among separate Facilities on a non-pro rata basis.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent (or in the case of the Revolving Credit Facility, the Revolver Agent) pursuant to Section 10.07(d) and receipt by the Administrative Agent (or in the case of the Revolving Credit Facility, the Revolver Agent) from the parties to each assignment of a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (provided that the Administrative Agent (or in the case of the Revolving Credit Facility, the Revolver Agent) may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any rights and obligations pursuant to Section 3.01), and the assigning

#96808608v5

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 3.01, 3.03, 3.04, 10.04 and 10.05 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment). Upon request, and the surrender by the assigning Lender of its Note (if any), the Borrower (at their expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this clause (c) 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 Section 10.07(e). For greater certainty, any assignment by a Lender pursuant to this Section 10.07 shall not in any way constitute or be deemed to constitute a novation, discharge, recession, extinguishment or substitution of the existing Indebtedness and any Indebtedness so assigned shall continue to be the same obligation and not a new obligations.

The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Term Lenders, and the Term Commitments of, and principal amounts (and related interest amounts) and currencies of the Term Loans, owing to, each Term Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Term Register”). The Revolver Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at the Revolver Agent’s office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Revolving Lenders, and the Revolving Credit Commitments of, and principal amounts (and related interest amounts) and currencies of the Revolving Credit Loans, L/C Obligations (specifying the Unreimbursed Amounts) and L/C Borrowings owing to, each Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Revolver Register” and, together with the Term Register, the “Registers”). The entries in the Registers shall be conclusive, absent demonstrable error, and the Borrower, the Agents and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in a Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register of any Facility shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, any Agent and any Lender of such Facility (but in the case of any Lender solely with respect to such Lender’s outstanding Loans or Commitments) at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. No assignment shall be effective unless recorded in the applicable Register. The parties hereto agree and intend that the Obligations shall be treated as being in “registered form” for the purposes of the Code (including Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2), 881(c)(2), and 4701 of the Code).

Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the Revolver Agent or L/C Issuer, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or a Defaulting Lender or, in the case of Revolving Credit Loans, Disqualified Lender) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Lender’s participations in L/C Obligations) owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain

#96808608v5

unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Agents and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. 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 the other Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in Section 10.01(a), (b), (c), (d), (e) or (f) that directly affects such Participant. Subject to Section 10.07(f), the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.03 and 3.04 (through the applicable Lender), provided that each Participant shall be subject to the requirements and limitations of such Sections (including Sections 3.01(f) and (g) and Sections 3.05 and 3.06) (it being understood that the Participant shall deliver the forms described in Section 3.01(f) solely to the participating Lender, it being understood that copies of such forms may be required to be included (and, if so, will be included) as part of a non-U.S. Granting Lender’s IRS Form W-8IMY provided to the Administrative Agent (or in the case of the Revolving Credit Facility, the Revolver Agent) or the Borrower), to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.07(b). To the extent permitted by applicable Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.09 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant complies with Section 2.13 as though it were a Lender. Any Lender that sells participations shall maintain a register on which it enters the name and the address of each Participant and the principal and interest amounts of each Participant’s participation interest in the Commitments and/or Loans (or other rights or obligations) held by it (the “Participant Register”). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive, absent demonstrable error, and the Borrower and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation interest as the owner thereof for all purposes notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. In maintaining the Participant Register, such Lender shall be acting as the non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower solely for purposes of applicable United States federal income tax law and undertakes no duty, responsibility or obligation to the Borrower (without limitation, in no event shall such Lender be a fiduciary of the Borrower for any purpose). No Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of a Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, or its other obligations under this Agreement) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish in connection with a Tax audit that such commitment, loan, or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations or, if different, under Sections 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code.

A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.01, 3.03 or 3.04 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent or except to the extent

#96808608v5

such entitlement to a greater payment results from a Change in Law after the Participant became a Participant.

Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank; 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.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, and the Borrower (an “SPC”) the option to provide all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to fund any Loan and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to make all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. Each party hereto hereby agrees that (i) an SPC shall be entitled to the benefit of Sections 3.01, 3.03 and 3.04, subject to the requirements and limitations of such Sections (including Section 3.01(f) and (g) and Sections 3.05 and 3.06 (it being understood that the SPC shall deliver the forms described in Section 3.01(f) solely to the Granting Lender, it being understood that copies of such forms may be required to be included (and, if so, will be included) as part of a non-U.S. Lender’s IRS Form W-8IMY provided to the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, or the Borrower)), to the same extent as if such SPC were a Lender, but neither the grant to any SPC nor the exercise by any SPC of such option shall increase the costs or expenses or otherwise increase or change the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement (including its obligations under Section 3.01, 3.03 or 3.04) except to the extent any entitlement to greater amounts results from a Change in Law after the grant to the SPC occurred, (ii) no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement for which a Lender would be liable and such liability shall remain with the Granting Lender, and (iii) the Granting Lender shall for all purposes, including the approval of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of any Loan Document, remain the lender of record hereunder. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without prior consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, assign all or any portion of its right to receive payment with respect to any Loan to the Granting Lender and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its funding of Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety or Guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC. Any Granting Lender shall maintain a register with respect to any grant described in this clause (h) on which it enters the name and the address of each SPC and the principal and interest amounts of each SPC’s interest in the granted Commitments and/or Loans (or other rights or obligations with respect thereto),

#96808608v5

which shall be maintained in a manner similar to any Participant Register described in Section 10.07(e), mutatis mutandis.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (1) any Lender may in accordance with applicable Law create a security interest in all or any portion of the Loans owing to it and the Note, if any, held by it and (2) any Lender that is a Fund may create a security interest in all or any portion of the Loans owing to it and the Note, if any, held by it to the trustee for holders of obligations owed, or securities issued, by such Fund as security for such obligations or securities; provided that unless and until such trustee actually becomes a Lender in compliance with the other provisions of this Section 10.07, (i) no such pledge shall release the pledging Lender from any of its obligations under the Loan Documents and (ii) such trustee shall not be entitled to exercise any of the rights of a Lender under the Loan Documents even though such trustee may have acquired ownership rights with respect to the pledged interest through foreclosure or otherwise.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any L/C Issuer may, upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the Borrower and the Lenders, resign as an L/C Issuer, respectively; provided that on or prior to the expiration of such 30-day period with respect to such resignation, the relevant L/C Issuer shall have identified, in consultation with the Borrower, a successor L/C Issuer willing to accept its appointment as successor L/C Issuer. In the event of any such resignation of an L/C Issuer, the Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders willing to accept such appointment a successor L/C Issuer hereunder; provided that no failure by the Borrower to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of the relevant L/C Issuer. If an L/C Issuer resigns as an L/C Issuer, it shall retain all the rights and obligations of an L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as an L/C Issuer and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 2.03(c)).

Any Lender may, so long as no proceeds of Revolving Credit Loans are applied to fund the consideration for any such assignment, at any time, assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations with respect to Term Loans under this Agreement to the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries through (x) Dutch auctions open to all Term Lenders in accordance with procedures of the type described in Section 2.17 or (y) notwithstanding Section 2.17 or any other provision in this Agreement, open market purchase on a non-pro rata basis; provided, that, in connection with assignments pursuant to clause (y) above:

if the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than the Borrower) is the assignee, upon such assignment, transfer or contribution, the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary shall automatically be deemed to have contributed the principal amount of such Term Loans, plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, to the Borrower; or

if the assignee is the Borrower (including through contribution or transfers set forth in clause (i) above), (a) the principal amount of such Term Loans, along with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, so contributed, assigned or transferred to the Borrower shall be deemed automatically cancelled and extinguished on the date of such contribution, assignment or transfer, (b) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Term Loans of the remaining Term Lenders shall reflect such cancellation and extinguishing of the Term Loans then held by the Borrower and (c) the Borrower shall promptly provide notice to the Administrative Agent of such contribution, assignment or transfer of such Term Loans,

#96808608v5

and the Administrative Agent, upon receipt of such notice, shall reflect the cancellation of the applicable Term Loans in the Term Register.

Confidentiality

. Each of the Agents and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information and to not use or disclose such information, except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees, trustees, investment advisors and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential); (b) to the extent requested by any Governmental Authority, to any pledgee referred to in Section 10.07(g); (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) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 10.08 (or as may otherwise be reasonably acceptable to the Borrower), to any pledgee referred to in Section 10.07(i), counterparty to a Swap Contract or Qualified Securitization Financing, Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement; (f) with the written consent of the Borrower; (g) to the extent such Information becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.08; (h) to any Governmental Authority or examiner regulating any Lender; (i) to any rating agency when required by it (it being understood that, prior to any such disclosure, such rating agency shall undertake to preserve the confidentiality of any Information relating to the Loan Parties received by it from such Lender); or (j) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder. In addition, the Agents 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 Agents and the Lenders in connection with the administration and management of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Commitments, and the Credit Extensions. For the purposes of this Section 10.08, “Information” means all information received from any Loan Party or its Affiliates or its Affiliates’ directors, managers, officers, employees, trustees, investment advisors or agents, relating to the Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries or their business, other than any such information that is publicly available to any Agent or any Lender prior to disclosure by any Loan Party other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.08, including, without limitation, information delivered pursuant to Section 6.01, 6.02 or 6.03 hereof.

Setoff

. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by Law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender and its Affiliates and each L/C Issuer and its Affiliates is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to the Borrower or any other Loan Party, any such notice being waived by the Borrower (on its own behalf and on behalf of each Loan Party and its Subsidiaries) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held by, and other Indebtedness (in any currency) at any time owing by, such Lender and its Affiliates or such L/C Issuer and its Affiliates, as the case may be, to or for the credit or the account of the respective Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries against any and all Obligations owing to such Lender and its Affiliates or such L/C Issuer and its Affiliates hereunder or under any other Loan Document, now or hereafter existing, irrespective of whether or not such Agent or such Lender or Affiliate shall have made

#96808608v5

demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured or denominated in a currency different from that of the applicable deposit or Indebtedness. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Lender or its Affiliates and no L/C Issuer or its Affiliates shall have a right to set off and apply any deposits held or other Indebtedness owing by such Lender or its Affiliates or such L/C Issuer or its Affiliates, as the case may be, to or for the credit or the account of any Subsidiary of a Loan Party that is a Foreign Subsidiary or a Domestic Foreign Holding Company. Each Lender and L/C Issuer agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent or Revolver Agent, as applicable, after any such set off and application made by such Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of the Administrative Agent, the Revolver Agent, each Lender and each L/C Issuer under this Section 10.09 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that the Administrative Agent, the Revolver Agent, such Lender and such L/C Issuer may have.

Counterparts

. This Agreement and each other Loan Document may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery by telecopier or other electronic transmission of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement and each other Loan Document shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement and such other Loan Document. The Agents may also require that any such documents and signatures delivered by telecopier or other electronic transmission be confirmed by a manually signed original thereof; provided that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any document or signature delivered by telecopier or other electronic transmission. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Loan Document shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable Law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

Integration

. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents and the Fee Letter, comprises the complete and integrated agreement of the parties on the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, on such subject matter. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control; provided that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Agents or the Lenders in any other Loan Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement. Each Loan Document was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof.

Survival of Representations and Warranties

. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by each Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by any Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that any Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of

#96808608v5

any Default at the time of any Credit Extension, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied or any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding. The provisions of Sections 10.14 and 10.15 shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied or any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding.

Severability

. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

GOVERNING LAW, JURISDICTION, SERVICE OF PROCESS

THIS AGREEMENT AND EACH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PROVIDED THEREIN).

EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN THE FOLLOWING PARAGRAPH, ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING UNDER ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO OR ANY OF THEM WITH RESPECT TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED THERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, SHALL BE BROUGHT (X) PRIOR TO THE PLAN EFFECTIVE DATE, IN THE BANKRUPTCY COURT, AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF AND (Y) AFTER THE CONVERSION DATE, IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK CITY, THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN OR OF THE UNITED STATES FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF SUCH STATE (PROVIDED THAT IF NONE OF SUCH COURTS CAN AND WILL EXERCISE SUCH JURISDICTION, SUCH EXCLUSIVITY SHALL NOT APPLY), AND BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE BORROWER, EACH AGENT AND EACH LENDER CONSENTS, FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THOSE COURTS. THE BORROWER, EACH AGENT AND EACH LENDER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION, INCLUDING ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OR BASED ON THE GROUNDS OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS, WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN SUCH JURISDICTION IN RESPECT OF ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR OTHER DOCUMENT RELATED THERETO.

NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT OR IN ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE REVOLVER AGENT, THE COLLATERAL AGENT OR ANY LENDER MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AGAINST ANY LOAN PARTY OR ITS PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION (I) FOR PURPOSES OF ENFORCING A JUDGMENT, (II) IN CONNECTION WITH EXERCISING REMEDIES AGAINST THE COLLATERAL IN A JURISDICTION IN WHICH SUCH COLLATERAL IS LOCATED, (III) IN CONNECTION

#96808608v5

WITH ANY PENDING BANKRUPTCY, INSOLVENCY OR SIMILAR PROCEEDING IN SUCH JURISDICTION OR (IV) TO THE EXTENT THE COURTS REFERRED TO IN THE PREVIOUS PARAGRAPH DO NOT HAVE JURISDICTION OVER SUCH LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING OR THE PARTIES OR PROPERTY SUBJECT THERETO.

WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY

. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING UNDER ANY LOAN DOCUMENT OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO OR ANY OF THEM WITH RESPECT TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED THERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER FOUNDED IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE; AND EACH PARTY HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY, AND THAT ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION 10.15 WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE SIGNATORIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

Binding Effect

. This Agreement shall become effective when Conversion Date Restatement Agreement and Amendment shall have been executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Revolver Agent and the Lenders and L/C Issuers party thereto and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, each Agent and each Lender and L/C Issuer and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrower shall not have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Lenders except as permitted by Section 7.04.

Judgment Currency

. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or any other Loan Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent (or in the case of the Revolving Credit Facility, the Revolver Agent) could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of the Borrower in respect of any such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent (or in the case of the Revolving Credit Facility, the Revolver Agent) or the Lenders hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent (or the Revolver Agent, as applicable) of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Administrative Agent (or the Revolver Agent, as applicable) may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent (or the Revolver Agent, as applicable) from the Borrower in the Agreement Currency, the Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent (or in the case of the Revolving Credit Facility, the Revolver Agent) or the Person to whom such obligation was owing against such loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased

#96808608v5

is greater than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent (or the Revolver Agent, as applicable) in such currency, the Administrative Agent (or the Revolver Agent, as applicable) agrees to return the amount of any excess to the Borrower (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable Law).

Lender Action

. The Lenders and each other holder of an Obligation under a Loan Document shall act collectively through the Administrative Agent (or with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility, the Revolver Agent) for any right or remedy against any Loan Party under any of the Loan Documents (other than set-off rights) in each case with respect to the Collateral or any other property of any Loan Party. Without limiting the delegation of authority to the Administrative Agent and the Revolver Agent set forth herein, only the Required Lenders (or with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility, the Required Revolving Credit Lenders) shall have the authority to direct the Administrative Agent (or with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility, the Revolver Agent) with respect to the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including with respect to alleging the existence or occurrence of, and exercising rights and remedies as a result of, any Default or Event of Default) with respect to (i) the Loans and (ii) any Collateral, and (ii) any other property of any Loan Party. Any such rights and remedies arising under the Loan Documents shall not be exercised other than through the Administrative Agent (or with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility, the Revolver Agent). Each Lender agrees that it shall not, and hereby waives any right to, take or institute any actions or proceedings, judicial or otherwise, for any such right or remedy under any Loan Document against any Loan Party or any past, present, or future Subsidiary of any Loan Party concerning any Collateral, or any other property of any Loan Party or any past, present or future Loan Party other than through the Administrative Agent (or with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility, the Revolver Agent); provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, this sentence may be enforced against any Secured Party by the Required Lenders (or with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility, the Required Revolving Credit Lenders), any Agent or the Borrower (or any of its Affiliates) and each Secured Party expressly acknowledge that this sentence shall be available as a defense of the Borrower (or any of its Affiliates) in any such action, proceeding or remedial procedure. Each Secured Party, whether or not a party hereto, will be deemed, by its acceptance of the benefits of the Collateral and of the Guarantees of the Secured Obligations, to have agreed to the foregoing provisions. Each Lender expressly and irrevocably agrees that it will not hinder or direct the Agent to take any action that will hinder the automatic release of any security interest, Lien or Guarantee provided for by this Section 10.18 (including, without limitation, in connection with any Disposition permitted pursuant to Section 7.05 and including, without limitation, any refusal to release liens, return possessory collateral, execute and/or file release documentation or take any other reasonably requested actions to documents or effectuate the release of Liens on Collateral, in each case, at the Borrower’s sole cost and expense) and expressly and irrevocably agrees that the Agents shall be authorized to, and shall, take any necessary action to release any such security interest, Lien or Guarantee to the extent authorized to do so by this Section 10.18 without any obligation or requirement to notify or obtain consent from any Lender (and the Administrative Agent (or with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility, the Revolver Agent) shall not condition any such actions on providing notice to, or obtaining consent from, the Lenders). The provisions of this Section 10.18 are for

#96808608v5

the sole benefit of the Lenders and shall not afford any right to, or constitute a defense available to, any Loan Party.

USA PATRIOT Act

. Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrower that, pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower and the Guarantors, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and the Guarantors and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower and the Guarantors in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act.

Obligations Absolute

. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, all obligations of the Loan Parties hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of:

any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment, composition, liquidation or the like of any Loan Party;

any lack of validity or enforceability of any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto against any Loan Party;

any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Secured Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;

any exchange, release or non-perfection of any other Collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to any departure from any guarantee, for all or any of the Secured Obligations;

any exercise or non-exercise, or any waiver of any right, remedy, power or privilege under or in respect hereof or any Loan Document; or

any other circumstances which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Loan Parties.

No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility

. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), the Borrower acknowledge and agrees, and acknowledges its Affiliates’ understanding, that: (i) (A) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Agents and the Lead Arrangers are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Borrower and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Agents and the Lead Arrangers, on the other hand, (B) the Borrower has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (C) the Borrower is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) (A) each Agent, each Lender and each Lead Arranger is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Borrower or any of its Affiliates, or any other Person and (B) neither the Agents, nor any Lender or any Lead Arranger has any obligation to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) each Agent, each Lender and the Lead Arrangers and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrower and its Affiliates, and neither the Agents nor any Lead Arranger has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Borrower hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against the Agents, each

#96808608v5

Lender and each Lead Arranger with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.

Acknowledgment and Consent to Bail-In of EEA 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 Lender that is an 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.

Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs

. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Swap Obligations or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC, a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting

Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

Acknowledgment of Intercreditor Agreements

. The Lenders and the other Secured Parties hereby irrevocably authorize and instruct the Agents to, without any further consent of any Lender or any other Secured Party, enter into (or acknowledge and consent to) or amend, renew, extend, supplement, restate, replace, waive or otherwise modify any Agreement, any Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement, any other Customary Intercreditor Agreement, or any other intercreditor agreement with the collateral agent or other representatives of the holders of Indebtedness that is to be secured by a Lien on the Collateral that is not prohibited (including with respect to priority) under this Agreement and to subject the Liens on the Collateral securing the Obligations to the provisions thereof (any of the foregoing, an “Intercreditor Agreement”). The Lenders and the other Secured Parties irrevocably agree that (x) the Collateral Agent may rely exclusively on a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Borrower as to whether any such other Liens are not prohibited and (y) any Intercreditor Agreement entered into by the applicable Agents shall be binding on the Secured Parties, and each Lender and the other Secured Parties hereby agrees that it will take no actions contrary to the provisions of, if entered into and if applicable, any Intercreditor Agreement. The foregoing provisions are intended as an inducement to any provider of any Indebtedness not prohibited by Section 7.03 hereof to extend credit to the Loan Parties and such persons are intended third-party beneficiaries of such provisions.

Maximum Rate

. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Revolving Credit Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts that are treated as interest on such Revolving Credit Loan under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) that may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Revolving Credit Lender holding such Revolving Credit Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Revolving Credit Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Revolving Credit Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Revolving Credit Lender in respect of other Revolving Credit Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Revolving Credit Lender.

Amendment and Restatement

. Effective immediately upon the Conversion Date, the terms and conditions of the Existing Credit Agreement shall be amended and restated as set forth herein and the Existing Credit Agreement shall be superseded by this Agreement. On the Conversion Date, the rights and obligations of the parties evidenced by the Existing Credit Agreement shall be evidenced by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the grant of security interests and Liens in the Collateral under the Existing Credit Agreement and the other “Loan Documents” (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) by the Borrowers and the Guarantors party thereto shall continue under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and shall not in any event be terminated, extinguished or annulled but shall hereafter continue to be in full force and effect and be governed by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. All Obligations (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) under the Existing Credit Agreement and the other “Loan Documents” (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) shall continue to be outstanding except as expressly modified by this Agreement and shall be governed in all respects by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, it being agreed and understood that this Agreement does not constitute a novation, satisfaction, payment or reborrowing of any Obligation (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) under the Existing Credit Agreement or any other “Loan Document” (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement), nor does it operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of any Lender under any “Loan Document” (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement). All references

to the Existing Credit Agreement in any Loan Document or other document or instrument delivered in connection therewith shall be deemed to refer to this Agreement and the provisions hereof.
