WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested that Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders), the First Amendment Term Lenders, and the Lenders under the Existing Credit Agreement party hereto constituting Required Lenders (such lenders, the “Consenting Lenders”) amend the Existing Credit Agreement in certain respects, in each case, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein; and

WHEREAS, (a) the First Amendment Term Lenders are willing to provide such First Amendment Term Commitments and (b) Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) and the Consenting Lenders are willing to amend the Existing Credit Agreement in certain respects, in each case, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.

the Existing Credit Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A and (ii) Schedule 2.01 to the Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety with the Schedules attached hereto as Exhibit B.

SECTION 3. Conditions. The effectiveness of this Amendment is subject to the satisfaction (or waiver in the sole discretion of the Lenders party hereto) of each of the following conditions precedent (the first date of satisfaction or waiver of all such conditions precedent shall be referred to herein as the “First Amendment Effective Date”):

(a) the execution and delivery of this Amendment by Borrower, Holdings, Administrative Agent and the Lenders, together with such other documents, instruments, and other deliverables listed on Exhibit C attached hereto (the “First Amendment Closing Checklist”) (in each case in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Required Lenders);

(b) the representations and warranties in Section 4 hereof and the Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects (and in all respects if any such representation or warranty is already qualified by materiality), with the same effect as though such representation and warranty had been made on and as of the date of the First Amendment Effective Date; provided that to the extent that any representation and warranty expressly relates to an earlier date, it shall be true and correct in all material respects (and in all respects if any such representation or warranty is already qualified by materiality) as of such earlier date;

(c) prior to or substantially concurrently with the funding of the First Amendment Term Loans on the First Amendment Effective Date, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders or, in the case of expenses, their counsel, as applicable, shall have received all fees required to be paid pursuant to the First Amendment Fee Letter and the Agent Fee Letter and all expenses required to be paid under the terms of the Existing Credit Agreement (in the case of expenses, to the extent invoiced at least one Business Day prior to the First Amendment Effective Date or such later date to which the Borrower may agree) which amounts may be offset against the proceeds of the First Amendment Term Loans made on the First Amendment Effective Date;

(d) no later than three Business Days in advance of the First Amendment Effective Date, the First Amendment Term Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall have received all documentation and other information that shall have been reasonably requested by the First Amendment Term Lenders and the Administrative Agent in writing at least 10 Business Days in advance of the First Amendment Effective Date that they reasonably determine is required by regulatory authorities with respect to the Loan Parties under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including, without limitation, the USA PATRIOT Act, and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation;

(e) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and

(f) the representations and warranties contained in Section 4 of this Amendment shall be true and accurate.

For purposes of determining whether the conditions specified in this Section 3 have been satisfied on the First Amendment Effective Date, the First Amendment Term Lenders, the Consenting Lenders and Administrative Agent, by delivering its signature page to this Amendment and, if applicable, funding the First Amendment Term Loans on the First Amendment Effective Date, shall be deemed, in each case, to have consented to, approved or accepted, or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter required

hereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be.

SECTION 4. Representations and Warranties. Each Loan Party hereby jointly and severally represents and warrants to Administrative Agent, each First Amendment Term Lender and each Consenting Lender as of the First Amendment Effective Date as follows:

(a) Holdings, the Borrower and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries (x) is (i) duly organized and validly existing and (ii) in good standing (to the extent such concept exists in the relevant jurisdiction) under the law of its jurisdiction of organization, (y) has all requisite corporate or other organizational power and authority to (1) own its assets and to carry on its business as now conducted and (2) execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Amendment and to perform its obligations under the Amended Credit Agreement and (z) is qualified to do business in, and is in good standing (to the extent such concept exists in the relevant jurisdiction) in, every jurisdiction where the ownership, lease or operation of its properties or conduct of its business requires such qualification, except, in the case of each clause above (other than clause (x)(i) and clause (y)(2)), where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect;

(b) the execution, delivery and performance by each Loan Party of this Amendment and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party are within such Loan Party’s corporate or other organizational power and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other organizational action of such Loan Party;

(c) the execution, delivery and performance of each Loan Document by each Loan Party that is a party thereto (x) do not require any consent or approval of, registration or filing with, or any other action by, any Governmental Authority, except (i) such as have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect, (ii) in connection with the Perfection Requirements and for any other filings necessary to perfect Liens created pursuant to the Loan Documents and (iii) such consents, approvals, registrations, filings or other actions the failure to obtain or make which would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, (y) will not violate (i) such Loan Party’s Organizational Documents or (ii) any law applicable to such Loan Party, which violation, in the case of this clause (y)(ii), would, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect and (z) will not violate or result in a default under any Contractual Obligation to which such Loan Party is a party, which violation or default, in the case of this clause (z), would, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect;

(d) at the time of and immediately after giving effect to this Amendment and the transactions contemplated hereby (including the Special Dividend), each of the representations set forth in the Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects (without duplication of materiality qualifiers) (except to the extent stated to relate to a specific earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects (without duplication of materiality qualifiers) as of such earlier date);

(e) each of this Amendment, the Amended Credit Agreement, and the other Loan Documents has been duly executed and delivered by such Loan Party and is a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Loan Party, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject to the Legal Reservations and any other applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, examinership or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally; and

(f) at the time of and immediately after giving effect to this Amendment and the transactions contemplated hereby (including the Special Dividend), no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

SECTION 5. Acknowledgments. Administrative Agent is executing this Amendment at the direction of the Required Lenders and all of the Lenders party hereto hereby so direct Administrative Agent to execute this Amendment.

SECTION 6. Captions. Captions used in this Amendment are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction of this Amendment.

SECTION 7. Incremental Term Loan Notice, First Amendment Term Lender Joinder, and Consent.

(a) The Borrower hereby requests an Incremental Term Loan in an aggregate amount equal to $150,000,000.00 in accordance with Section 2.20 of the Existing Credit Agreement, to be made by each of the First Amendment Term Lenders set forth on Schedule 2.01 of the Amended Credit Agreement to the Borrower on the First Amendment Effective Date.

(b) Each First Amendment Term Lender hereby agrees (x) that its First Amendment Term Commitments shall become effective in accordance with the terms hereof and of the Amended Credit Agreement on the First Amendment Effective Date and (y) to provide such First Amendment Term Commitments (and the First Amendment Term Loans thereunder) in accordance herewith and the Amended Credit Agreement. Each Lender executing this Amendment as a First Amendment Term Lender (x) hereby represents and warrants that (i) it has full power and authority, and has taken all action necessary, to execute and deliver this Amendment and any other Loan Document and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and to become a Lender and a First Amendment Term Lender under the Amended Credit Agreement, (ii) it is an Eligible Assignee and satisfies the requirements, specified in the Existing Credit Agreement that are required to be satisfied by it in order to become a Lender and a First Amendment Term Lender, (iii) from and after the First Amendment Effective Date, it shall be bound by the provisions of the Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents as a Lender and a First Amendment Term Lender thereunder and shall have the obligations of a Lender and a First Amendment Term Lender thereunder, (iv) it is sophisticated with respect to decisions to acquire assets of the type represented by the First Amendment Term Commitments and either it, or the Person exercising discretion in making its decision to agree to provide the First Amendment Term Commitments, is experienced in making Loans of such type, (v) it has received a copy of the Existing Credit Agreement and any Intercreditor Agreement, together with copies of the most recent financial statements referred to in Section 3.04 of the Existing Credit Agreement or the most recent financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 5.01 of the Existing Credit Agreement, as applicable, and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Amendment on the basis of which it has made such analysis and decision independently and without reliance on Administrative Agent or any other Lender and (vi) such Lender has provided to Administrative Agent any documentation required to be delivered by it pursuant to Section 2.15 of the Existing Credit Agreement, duly completed and executed by such Lender and (y) agrees that (i) it will, independently and without reliance on Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it deems appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under the Loan Documents, (ii) it appoints and authorizes Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion (based on instructions from the Required Lenders) under the Amended Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or document

furnished pursuant hereto or thereto as are delegated to Administrative Agent by the terms thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, and (iii) it will

perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of the Loan Documents are required to be performed by it as a Lender and a First Amendment Term Lender. Without limiting the foregoing, such Lender represents and warrants, and agrees to, each of the matters set forth in the 12th paragraph of Article 8 of the Amended Credit Agreement, including that the Loan Documents set out the terms of a commercial lending facility.

(c) The First Amendment Term Loans to be made on the First Amendment Effective Date shall: (i) constitute Obligations and have all of the benefits thereof, (ii) have all of the rights, remedies, privileges and protections applicable to the “Loans”, “First Amendment Term Loans”, and the “Term Loans” under the Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (iii) be secured by the Liens granted to Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, or directly to the Lenders themselves (if applicable) under the Amended Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, (iv) be evidenced by promissory notes, to the extent requested by a Lender making its portion of the First Amendment Term Loan with respect to such portion in accordance with Section 2.09(f) of the Amended Credit Agreement, and (v) bear interest at rates applicable to the “First Amendment Term Loans” under the Amended Credit Agreement. All references to the “Obligations, “Loans” and “Term Loans” contained in the Amended Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to include the First Amendment Term Loans. The proceeds of the First Amendment Term Loan shall be used only to fund a portion of the Special Dividend on the First Amendment Effective Date and to pay costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith and therewith.

(d) Upon the satisfaction (or waiver in the sole discretion of the Lenders party hereto) of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3 hereof, the Lenders party hereto hereby agree and consent to the First Amendment Term Commitments, which shall be effective as of the First Amendment Effective Date. Notwithstanding anything in the Existing Credit Agreement or the Amended Credit Agreement to the contrary, the incurrence of the First Amendment Term Commitments and the First Amendment Term Loans shall constitute usage of clauses (a) and (d) of the definition of “Incremental Cap” and, to the extent such First Amendment Term Loans are unable to be incurred pursuant to clause (d) of the definition of “Incremental Cap”) shall reduce the availability under clause (a) of the definition of “Incremental Cap” in the Amended Credit Agreement.

(e) The parties hereto agree that this Amendment shall constitute an Incremental Facility Agreement. Administrative Agent shall record the First Amendment Term Commitments established hereby by the First Amendment Term Lenders in the Register.

SECTION 8. [Reserved].

SECTION 9. Effects on Loan Documents.

(a) On and after the effectiveness of this Amendment, each reference in any Loan Document, and in any other document or instrument incidental thereto, to the Existing Credit Agreement shall mean and be a reference to the Amended Credit Agreement, and each reference in the Existing Credit Agreement to “this Agreement”, “herein”, “hereinafter”, “hereto”, “hereof”, and words of similar import shall mean, from and after the First Amendment Effective Date, the Amended Credit Agreement.

(b) Except as specifically amended or modified herein, all Loan Documents shall continue to be in full force and effect and are hereby in all respects ratified and confirmed.

(c) The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment shall not operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of any Lender or Administrative Agent under any of the Loan Documents, nor constitute a waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents, a course of conduct or dealing among the parties, or in any way limit, impair or otherwise affect the rights and remedies of Administrative Agent or the Lenders under the Loan Documents.

(d) Each party hereto acknowledges and agrees that, on and after the First Amendment Effective Date, this Amendment shall constitute a Loan Document for all purposes of the Amended Credit Agreement.

SECTION 10. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Amendment or any other Loan Document or any Ancillary Document that is an Electronic Signature transmitted by emailed (.pdf) or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Amendment, such other Loan Document or such Ancillary Document, as applicable.

SECTION 11. Further Assurances. Each Loan Party hereby agrees from time to time, as and when reasonably requested by Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders), to execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered, all such documents, instruments and agreements and to take or cause to be taken such further or other action as Administrative Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) may reasonably deem necessary in order to carry out the intent and purposes of this Amendment.

SECTION 12. Severability. To the extent permitted by applicable law, any provision of this Amendment held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 13. Entire Agreement. This Amendment and the Amended Credit Agreement, together with all other Loan Documents, embodies the entire agreement among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

SECTION 14. Successors and Assigns. This Amendment shall be binding upon the Loan Parties, the Lenders, and the Administrative Agent and their respective successors and permitted assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of the Loan Parties, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and the successors and permitted assigns of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent. No other Person shall be a direct or indirect legal beneficiary of, or have any direct or indirect cause of action or claim in connection with, this Amendment or any of the other Loan Documents. No Loan Party may assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Amendment without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (at the direction of Required Lenders) and each Lender.

SECTION 15. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY AGREES THAT SECTIONS 9.10 AND 9.11 OF THE EXISTING CREDIT AGREEMENT ARE INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE HEREIN, MUTATIS MUTANDIS, AND SHALL HAVE THE SAME FORCE AND EFFECT WITH RESPECT TO THIS AMENDMENT AS IF ORIGINALLY SET FORTH HEREIN.

SECTION 16. Reaffirmation. Subject to any limitations on its obligations expressly stated in the Loan Documents to which it is a party, each Loan Party (i) ratifies and reaffirms all of its payment and performance obligations, contingent or otherwise, under the Amended Credit Agreement and each other Loan Document to which it is a party (after giving effect hereto), (ii) ratifies and reaffirms each Lien granted by each Loan Party to Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to the Collateral Documents and reaffirms all Guarantees made pursuant to the Guaranty Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (iii) acknowledges and agrees that the grants of security interests by and the Guarantees of the Loan Parties contained in the Existing Credit Agreement, the Guaranty Agreement, and the Collateral Documents are, and shall remain, in full force and effect after giving effect to this Amendment and (iv) ratifies and reaffirms the validity and enforceability of the appointment of Administrative Agent as its proxy and attorney-in-fact under each applicable Loan Document and, as of the date hereof without in any way impairing any previous appointment, reappoints Administrative Agent as its proxy and attorney-in-fact in accordance with the terms of the Security Agreement and the other Collateral Documents, as applicable, which appointment (A) is IRREVOCABLE (which shall survive the bankruptcy, dissolution or winding up of such Loan Party), (B) shall remain valid and in full force and effect until the Termination Date, (C) is coupled with an interest, and (D) is granted for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of the Loan Documents, as applicable. Except as expressly stated herein, Administrative Agent and the Lenders reserve all rights, privileges and remedies under the Loan Documents. Except as amended or modified hereby, the Existing Credit Agreement and other Loan Documents remain unmodified and in full force and effect. The parties hereto expressly do not intend to extinguish the Existing Credit Agreement. Each Loan Party hereto hereby consents to this Amendment and acknowledges that the Amended Credit Agreement and each other Loan Document (i) remains in full force and effect, (ii) constitutes legal, valid and binding obligations each Loan Party party thereto enforceable against such Loan Party in accordance with the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement and each other Loan Document except as may be limited by the Legal Reservations and any other applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, examinership or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and (iii) is hereby ratified and reaffirmed. Nothing contained in this Amendment shall be construed as a substitution or novation of the obligations outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, which shall remain in full force and effect, except to any extent modified hereby. Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that (i) notwithstanding the conditions to effectiveness set forth in this Amendment, such Guarantor is not required by the terms of the Existing Credit Agreement, the Amended Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document to consent to the amendment to the Existing Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents effected pursuant to this Amendment and (ii) nothing in the Existing Credit Agreement, the Amended Credit Agreement, this Amendment or any other Loan Document shall be deemed to require the consent of such Guarantor to any future amendments to the Amended Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

When payment of any obligation or the performance of any covenant, duty or obligation is stated to be due or performance required on a day which is not a Business Day, the date of such payment (other than as described in the definition of “Interest Period”) or performance shall extend to the immediately succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension.

SECTION 1.07. Currency Equivalents Generally. For purposes of any determination under Section 2.20, Article 5, Article 6 (other than Section 6.13 and the calculation of compliance with any financial ratio for purposes of taking any action hereunder) or Article 7 with respect to the amount of any Indebtedness, Lien, Restricted Payment, Restricted Debt Payment, Investment, Disposition, Sale and Lease-Back Transaction, Affiliate transaction or other transaction, event or circumstance (any of the foregoing, a “specified transaction”) in a currency other than U.S. Dollars, the U.S. Dollar equivalent amount of a specified transaction shall be calculated based on the rate of exchange quoted by the Bloomberg Foreign Exchange Rates & World Currencies Page (or by reference to any other reputable publicly available service for displaying exchange rates as may be selected by the Borrower) for such foreign currency, as in effect (as of the time of determination by the Borrower) on the date of such specified transaction (or, in the

case of any specified transaction, at the election of the Borrower, such other date as shall be applicable with respect to such specified transaction pursuant to Section 1.09(a) or, in the case of the incurrence of Indebtedness, on the date such Indebtedness is first committed). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, (a) if any Indebtedness is incurred or assumed (and, if applicable, associated Lien granted) to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a currency other than U.S. Dollars, and the relevant refinancing would cause the applicable U.S. Dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such U.S. Dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness (and, if applicable, associated Lien granted) does not exceed an amount sufficient to repay the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced, except by the sum of (i) an amount equal to unpaid accrued interest, penalties and premiums (including tender premiums and prepayment premiums) thereon plus defeasance costs, underwriting discounts and other fees, commissions and expenses (including upfront fees and original issue discount) incurred in connection with such refinancing, (ii) an amount equal to any existing commitments unutilized thereunder or letters of credit undrawn thereunder and (iii) additional amounts permitted to be incurred under Section 6.01 (or, if applicable, secured under Section 6.02) and (b) for the avoidance of doubt, no Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred solely as a result of a change in the rate of currency exchange occurring after the time of any specified transaction (or, if applicable, as of such other time as is applicable to such specified transaction pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence). For purposes of Section 6.13(a) and the calculation of compliance with any financial ratio for purposes of taking any action hereunder, on any relevant date of determination, amounts denominated in currencies other than U.S. Dollars shall be translated into U.S. Dollars at the applicable currency exchange rate used by the Borrower in preparing the financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(a) or 5.01(b) (or, prior to the first such delivery, the financial statements referred to in Section 3.04), as applicable, for the relevant Test Period and may, at the election of the Borrower, with respect to any Indebtedness, reflect the currency translation effects, determined in accordance with GAAP, of any Hedge Agreement permitted hereunder in respect of currency exchange risks with respect to the applicable currency in effect on the date of determination for the U.S. Dollar equivalent amount of such Indebtedness. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, to the extent that the Borrower would not be in compliance with Section 6.13(a) if any Indebtedness denominated in a currency other than U.S. Dollars were to be translated into U.S. Dollars on the basis of the applicable currency exchange rate used in preparing the financial statements for the relevant Test Period, but would be in compliance with Section 6.13(a) if such Indebtedness that is denominated in a currency other than in U.S. Dollars were instead translated into U.S. Dollars on the basis of the average relevant currency exchange rates over such Test Period (taking into account, at the election of the Borrower, the currency translation effects, determined in accordance with GAAP, of any Hedge Agreement permitted hereunder in respect of currency exchange risks with respect to the applicable currency in effect on the date of determination for the U.S. Dollar equivalent amount of such Indebtedness), then, solely for purposes of compliance with Section 6.13(a), the Total Leverage Ratio as of the last day of such Test Period shall be calculated on the basis of such average relevant currency exchange rates.

SECTION 1.08. [Reserved].

SECTION 1.09. Certain Calculations and Tests.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, for purposes of determining (i) compliance (including any requirement to determine compliance on a Pro Forma Basis) with any financial ratio or test (including any First Lien Leverage Ratio test, any Secured Leverage Ratio test, any Total Leverage Ratio test (including any such test expressed as such ratio being no worse than the corresponding ratio prior to giving pro forma effect to the applicable Limited Conditionality Transaction) and determining compliance with Section 6.13(a) on a Pro Forma Basis (but not the actual compliance with Section 6.13(a))) and/or testing availability under any basket expressed as a percentage of Consolidated

Adjusted EBITDA or otherwise determined by reference to a financial metric (including by reference to any other financial metric set forth in the definition of Available Amount), (ii) the accuracy of any representation or warranty (other than customary “specified representations” and “specified acquisition agreement representations”) or (iii) the absence of any Default or Event of Default (or any type of Default or Event of Default), other than an Event of Default under Section 7.01(a), 7.01(f), or 7.01(g), in each case, as a condition to, or for purposes of determining permissibility under this Agreement of, any Limited Conditionality Transaction (or of any related action or transaction, including any assumption or incurrence of any Indebtedness, including any Incremental Facility, or the creation of any Liens in connection therewith), the determination of whether the relevant condition is satisfied or such Limited Conditionality Transaction (and any related action or transaction) is permitted under this Agreement may be made, at the election of the Borrower in its sole discretion (such election, the “LCT Election”), at the time of (or on the basis of the financial statements for the most recently ended Test Period at the time of) (such time, the “LCT Test Date”) the execution of the definitive agreement or a letter of intent (or a similar undertaking) with respect to such Limited Conditionality Transaction), in each case, after giving effect on a Pro Forma Basis to the relevant Limited Conditionality Transaction (and the related actions and transactions). For the avoidance of doubt, if the Borrower has made an LCT Election with respect to any Limited Conditionality Transaction (and any related actions or transactions), (1) the applicable financial ratios or tests, baskets, financial metrics or other items with respect to which the determination was made on the LCT Test Date as set forth above shall not be re-tested or re-determined again at the time of the consummation of such Limited Conditionality Transaction (and any such related actions or transactions); provided that (x) the Borrower may elect, in its sole discretion, to re-test or re-determine any of the applicable financial ratios or tests, baskets or other financial metrics as of the last day of, or for, any Test Period ending after such LCT Test Date (but prior to the consummation of such Limited Conditionality Transaction), in which case, solely as to such financial ratios or tests, baskets or other financial metrics, the last day of such Test Period shall thereafter be deemed to be the applicable LCT Test Date and (y) if any financial ratios or tests or financial metrics improve or baskets increase after the applicable LCT Test Date, such improved ratios, tests, financial metrics or baskets may be utilized by the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries with respect to such Limited Conditionality Transaction (and any related actions or transactions) and (2) any inaccuracy of the representations and warranties (other than customary “specified representations” and “specified acquisition agreement representations”), or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, other than an Event of Default under Section 7.01(a), 7.01(f), or 7.01(g), in each case, after the applicable LCT Test Date shall be disregarded for the purposes of determining whether such Limited Conditionality Transaction (and any related actions or transactions) are permitted under this Agreement. If the Borrower has made an LCT Election with respect to any Limited Conditionality Transaction, then, in connection with any subsequent calculation of the financial ratios or tests, baskets or other financial metrics on or following the applicable LCT Test Date and prior to the earlier of (x) the date on which such Limited Conditionality Transaction is consummated or (y) the date that the definitive agreement, tender or similar offer with respect to such Limited Conditionality Transaction is terminated without the consummation thereof or such Limited Conditionality Transaction is otherwise abandoned prior to the consummation thereof, any such financial ratio or tests, basket or financial metric shall be calculated on a Pro Forma Basis assuming such Limited Conditionality Transaction (and the related actions and transactions) have been consummated.

(b) For purposes of determining the permissibility of any action, change, transaction or event that requires a calculation of any financial ratio, test or metric (including Section 6.13(a), any First Lien Leverage Ratio test, any Secured Leverage Ratio test and/or any Total Leverage Ratio test and/ or the amount of Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and/or Consolidated Total Assets), such financial ratio, test or metric shall be calculated at the time such action is taken, such change is made, such transaction is consummated or such event occurs, as the case may be (or, in each case, such other time as is applicable thereto pursuant to Section 1.09(a)), and no Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred solely as a result of a subsequent change in such financial ratio, test or metric.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, with respect to any amount incurred or transaction entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of this Agreement (including any prong of the definition of Incremental Cap) that does not require compliance with a financial ratio (including Section 6.13(a), any First Lien Leverage Ratio, any Secured Leverage Ratio and/ or any Total Leverage Ratio) (any such amount, including any amount borrowed under any Revolving Facility, a “Fixed Amount”) substantially concurrently with any amount incurred or transaction entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of this Agreement that requires compliance with a financial ratio (including Section 6.13(a), any First Lien Leverage Ratio, any Secured Leverage Ratio and/ or any Total Leverage Ratio) (any such amount, an “Incurrence-Based Amount”), it is understood and agreed that any Fixed Amount (even if part of the same transaction or, in the case of Indebtedness, the same tranche, as any Incurrence-Based Amount) shall be disregarded in the calculation of the financial ratio applicable to the Incurrence-Based Amount, but giving full pro forma effect to any increase in the amount of Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA or Consolidated Total Assets (including the Unrestricted Cash Amount (other than with respect to the netting of the Cash proceeds of Indebtedness)) resulting from the applicable transaction consummated in reliance on, or with the use of proceeds of, the Fixed Amounts. The Borrower may elect, in its sole discretion, that any such amounts incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) be incurred or entered into (or consummated), in whole or in part, in reliance on one or more of any Fixed Amounts or Incurrence-Based Amounts; provided that unless the Borrower elects otherwise, each such amount incurred or transaction entered into (or consummated) will be deemed incurred, entered into or consummated first under any Incurrence-Based Amount to the maximum extent permitted thereunder. It is further agreed that in connection with the calculation of any financial ratio applicable to any incurrence or assumption of Indebtedness in reliance on any Incurrence-Based Amount, such calculation shall be made on a Pro Forma Basis for the incurrence of such Indebtedness (including any acquisition consummated concurrently therewith and any other application of the proceeds thereof), but without netting the Cash proceeds of such Indebtedness, and assuming a full drawing of any undrawn committed amounts of such Indebtedness.

(d) It is understood and agreed that any Indebtedness, Lien, Restricted Payment, Restricted Debt Payment, Burdensome Agreement, Investment, Disposition or Affiliate transaction need not be permitted solely by reference to one clause or subclause of Section 6.01, 6.02, 6.03, 6.04, 6.05, 6.06 or 6.07, respectively (or one clause or subclause of any related definitions, including Incremental Cap), but may instead be permitted in part under any combination of clauses or subclauses of such Section (or such related definitions), all as classified or reclassified by the Borrower in its sole discretion at any time and from time to time, and shall constitute a usage of any availability under such clause or subclause only to the extent so classified or reclassified thereto; provided that (i) the Credit Facilities may only be permitted under Section 6.01(a) and secured by Liens permitted pursuant to Section 6.02(a), (ii) Indebtedness incurred under Section 6.01(p) or 6.01(q), to the extent such Indebtedness is secured by Liens on the Collateral that are pari passu (but without regard to the control of remedies) with or expressly junior to the Liens on the Collateral securing the Credit Facilities, may not be reclassified to any other clause of Section 6.01 and such Liens on the Collateral may only be incurred under Section 6.02(s), (iii) Investments outstanding in reliance on Section 6.05(cc) may not be reclassified to any other clause of Section 6.05 and (iv) reclassification shall only be permitted within the same Section of this Agreement. In addition, for purposes of determining compliance at any time with Section 6.01, 6.02, 6.03 or 6.05 (and for purposes of any related definitions, including the Incremental Cap), the Borrower may, at any time and from time to time in its sole discretion, reclassify (or deem such reclassification to have occurred automatically), any Indebtedness, Lien, Restricted Payment, Restricted Debt Payment or Investment (or a portion thereof), as applicable, previously incurred, made or otherwise undertaken under any basket or prong as having been incurred, made or otherwise undertaken under any applicable “ratio-based” basket or prong set forth in such Section (or such related definitions) if such item (or such portion thereof) would, using the figures as of the end of or for any Test Period ended after the date of such incurrence, making or undertaking, be permitted under the applicable “ratio-based” basket or prong; provided that, in the case of Sections 6.01, 6.02 and

6.05, any such reclassification shall be subject to the limitations set forth in the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence. For the avoidance of doubt, any amount so classified or reclassified to any applicable “ratio-based” basket or prong shall be disregarded, and shall be deemed not to be outstanding, for purposes of determining availability under any other applicable exception in such Section (and for purposes of any related definitions, including any Fixed Amount under the Incremental Cap) that does not require compliance with a ratio.

(e) For purposes of determining compliance with this Agreement, the accrual of interest, fees or premium, the accrual of dividends in respect of Disqualified Capital Stock, the accretion of accreted value, the amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest, fees or premium, or a dividend in the form of additional shares of Disqualified Capital Stock and/or any increase in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of any fluctuation in the exchange rate of any applicable currency shall not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness and, to the extent secured, shall not be deemed to result in an increase of the obligations so secured or to be a grant of a Lien securing any such obligation.

SECTION 1.10. Rounding. Any financial ratios required to be maintained by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement (or required to be satisfied in order for a specific action to be permitted under this Agreement) shall be calculated by dividing the appropriate component by the other component, carrying the result to one place more than the number of places by which such ratio is expressed herein and rounding the result up or down to the nearest number (with a rounding up if there is no nearest number).

SECTION 1.11. Divisions. For all purposes under the Loan Documents, in connection with any division or plan of division of or with respect to any Person under Delaware law (or any comparable event under the applicable law of any other jurisdiction), if, pursuant thereto, (a) 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 Disposed by the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized on the first date of its existence by the holders of its Capital Stock at such time.

SECTION 1.12. Interest Rates; Benchmark Notification. The interest rate on a Loan 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, Section 2.13(b) provides a mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest. The Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to (a) the continuation, administration, submission, performance, calculation or any other matter related to any interest rate used in this Agreement (or any component thereof), or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof (including any Benchmark Replacement), 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 existing interest rate being replaced or have the same volume or liquidity as did any existing interest rate prior to its discontinuance or unavailability or (b) the effect, implementation or composition of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates and/ or other related entities may engage in transactions 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 pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to the Borrower, any Lender or any other Person 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.

ARTICLE 2

THE CREDITS

SECTION 2.01. Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (a) each Initial Term Lender severally, and not jointly, agrees to make Initial Term Loans denominated in U.S. Dollars to the Borrower on the Closing Date in a principal amount not to exceed its Initial Term Commitment and, (b) each Initial Revolving Lender severally, and not jointly, agrees to make Initial Revolving Loans denominated in U.S. Dollars to the Borrower at any time and from time to time during the Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount that will not result in (i) the amount of such Initial Revolving Lender’s Initial Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding such Initial Revolving Lender’s Initial Revolving Credit Commitment or (ii) the aggregate Initial Revolving Credit Exposures exceeding the aggregate Initial Revolving Credit Commitments, and (c) each First Amendment Term Lender severally, and not jointly, agrees to make First Amendment Term Loans denominated in U.S. Dollars to the Borrower on the First Amendment Effective Date in a principal amount not to exceed its First Amendment Term Commitment. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, pay or prepay and re-borrow Initial Revolving Loans. Amounts paid or prepaid in respect of the Initial Term Loans may not be re-borrowed. Amounts paid or prepaid in respect of the First Amendment Term Loans may not be re-borrowed.

SECTION 2.02. Loans and Borrowings.

(a) Each Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans of the same Class and Type made by the applicable Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments of the applicable Class. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided that the Commitments of the Lenders are several and no Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender’s failure to make Loans as required.

(b) Subject to Section 2.13, each Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Term SOFR Loans as the Borrower may request in accordance herewith. Each Lender at its option may make any Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that (i) any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, (ii) such Loan shall be deemed to have been made and held by such Lender, and the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan shall nevertheless be to such Lender for the account of such domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender and (iii) in exercising such option, such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to minimize increased costs to the Borrower resulting therefrom (which obligation of such Lender shall not require it to take, or refrain from taking, actions that it determines would result in increased costs for which it will not be compensated hereunder or that it otherwise determines would be disadvantageous to it and in the event of such request for costs for which compensation is provided under this Agreement, the provisions of Section 2.14 shall apply); provided further that no such domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender shall be entitled to any greater indemnification under Section 2.14 or 2.15 with respect to such Loan than that to which the applicable Lender was entitled on the date on which such Loan was made (except in connection with any indemnification entitlement arising as a result of any Change in Law after the date on which such Loan was made).

(c) At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Term SOFR Borrowing, and at the time each ABR Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and not less than the Borrowing Minimum (or, in each case,

such other amount as is reasonably acceptable to the Required Lenders); provided that (i) any Term SOFR Borrowing that results from a continuation of an outstanding Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to such outstanding Borrowing, (ii) any Term SOFR Borrowing of any Class may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire unused balance of the aggregate Commitments of such Class and (iii) an ABR Borrowing of any Class may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire unused balance of the aggregate Commitments of such Class or, in the case of Revolving Borrowings, that is required to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.05(e). Borrowings of more than one Type and Class may be outstanding at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of 10 different Interest Periods in effect for Term SOFR Borrowings at any time outstanding (or such greater number of different Interest Periods as the Required Lenders may agree from time to time).

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Borrower shall not, nor shall it be entitled to, request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Term SOFR Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Maturity Date applicable to the relevant Loans.

SECTION 2.03. Requests for Borrowings.

(a) To request a borrowing of Loans, the Borrower shall deliver a written Borrowing Request, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, to the Administrative Agent not later than (i) 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three U.S. Government Securities Business Days prior to the requested date of any Term SOFR Borrowing and (ii) 11:00 a.m., New York City time, one (1) Business Day prior to the requested date of any ABR Borrowing (or, in each case, such later time as is reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent); provided that (A) any such request for a Borrowing to be made under an Incremental Facility Amendment or a Refinancing Amendment (other than the First Amendment) may be delivered no later than such later time as shall be specified therefor in the applicable Incremental Facility Amendment or Refinancing Amendment and (B) any such request for a borrowing of Term SOFR Loans to be made on the Closing Date or the First Amendment Effective Date may be delivered no later 12:00 noon, New York City time, one Business Day before the Closing Date. Any such Borrowing Request may state that it is conditioned upon one or more events specified therein, in which case such Borrowing Request may be revoked (or the requested date of the applicable Borrowing may be extended so long as the Administrative Agent receives written notice of such extension at least one (1) Business Day prior to the date of funding of such applicable Borrowing), if such condition is not satisfied, by the Borrower delivering notice thereof to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date of the applicable Borrowing.

(b) Each Borrowing Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

(i) the aggregate principal amount of the requested Borrowing and the Class thereof;

(ii) the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day;

(iii) the Type of such Borrowing;

(iv) in the case of a Term SOFR Borrowing, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”; and

(v) the location and number of the account(s) designated by the Borrower to which funds are to be disbursed or, in the case of any ABR Revolving Borrowing requested to finance the

reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.05(e), the identity of the Issuing Bank that made such LC Disbursement.

If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Term SOFR Borrowing, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. The Administrative Agent shall, promptly upon receipt of any Borrowing Request, advise each applicable Lender of the details and amount of any Loan to be made as part of the relevant requested Borrowing.

SECTION 2.04. [Reserved].

SECTION 2.05. Letters of Credit.

(a) General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Issuing Bank agrees, at any time and from time to time during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the date that is 30 days prior to the Latest Revolving Credit Maturity Date (determined, with respect to each Issuing Bank, giving effect to Section 2.21(a)(viii)), upon the request of the Borrower, (i) to issue Letters of Credit denominated in U.S. Dollars for the account of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (provided that, in the case of any Letter of Credit issued for the account of any Restricted Subsidiary, the Borrower will be a co-applicant and remain primarily liable for the obligations of such Restricted Subsidiary with respect to such Letter of Credit) in support of its or its Restricted Subsidiaries’ obligations, in a form reasonably acceptable to such Issuing Bank, and (ii) to amend or extend Letters of Credit previously issued by it; provided that (A) no Issuing Bank shall be required (but shall be permitted) to issue any Letter of Credit that is not a standby Letter of Credit and (B) no Issuing Bank shall be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Bank from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any law or regulation of any Governmental Authority applicable to such Issuing Bank shall prohibit the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular. Each Existing Letter of Credit shall be deemed, for all purposes of this Agreement (including paragraphs (d) and (e) of this Section 2.05), to be a Letter of Credit issued hereunder. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, or entered into by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries with, the relevant Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. The Borrower unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that, in connection with any Letter of Credit (including any Existing Letter of Credit) issued for the account of any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, the Borrower will be fully responsible for the reimbursement of LC Disbursements in accordance with the terms hereof, the payment of interest thereon and the payment of fees due under Section 2.11(b) to the same extent as if it were the sole account party in respect of such Letter of Credit (the Borrower hereby irrevocably waiving any defenses that might otherwise be available to it as a guarantor or surety of the obligations of such Restricted Subsidiary that is an account party in respect of any such Letter of Credit).

(b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment or Extension; Certain Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit (other than an automatic extension permitted pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section 2.05)), the Borrower shall deliver to the applicable Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent, at least 10 Business Days in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment or extension (or such shorter period as is acceptable to the applicable Issuing Bank) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended or extended, in the form of Exhibit J attached hereto or such other form as the Borrower and the applicable Issuing Bank may agree to and specifying the date of issuance, amendment or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with

paragraph (c) of this Section 2.05), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend or extend such Letter of Credit. If requested by the applicable Issuing Bank, the Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on such Issuing Bank’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit and provide any documentation or other information required by regulatory authorities under applicable “know your customer” rules and regulations for the beneficiary and any party to be named on such Letter of Credit. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment or extension of each Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment or extension (i) the total LC Exposure shall not exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit, (ii) the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposures shall not exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitments, (iii) the amount of any Revolving Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure attributable to the Revolving Credit Commitments of any Class shall not exceed such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment of such Class and (iv) the portion of the total LC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued by the applicable Issuing Bank shall not (unless otherwise agreed by such Issuing Bank) exceed its LC Commitment.

(c) Expiration Date. No Letter of Credit shall expire later than the earlier of (i) the date that is one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any extension thereof, one year after the then-current expiration at the time of such extension) or such longer period as may be agreed by the applicable Issuing Bank and (ii) the date that is 30 days prior to the Latest Revolving Credit Maturity Date, unless such Letter of Credit, as of the date specified in this clause (ii), is subject to cash collateral or backstop arrangements reasonably acceptable to the relevant Issuing Bank; provided that, if the Borrower so requests in any applicable letter of credit application, the relevant Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”). Unless otherwise directed by an Issuing Bank, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to an Issuing Bank for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the relevant Issuing Bank to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the date set forth in clause (ii) above (or, if such Letter of Credit is subject to cash collateral or backstop arrangements reasonably acceptable to the relevant Issuing Bank, a later date).

(d) Participations. By the issuance of any Letter of Credit (or an amendment to any Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank or the Revolving Lenders, the applicable Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Revolving Lender, and each Revolving Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrower on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section 2.05, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason, each such payment to be made in U.S. Dollars. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph (d) in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of Default or reduction or termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

(e) Reimbursement. If any Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative

Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement, in U.S. Dollars, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the later of (i) the first Business Day immediately following the date on which the Borrower receives notice that such LC Disbursement is made or (ii) the date on which such LC Disbursement is made; provided that, in the case of any LC Disbursement, the Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 that such payment be financed with an ABR Revolving Borrowing in an amount of such LC Disbursement and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Revolving Borrowing. If the Borrower fails to make such payment when due, the applicable Issuing Bank shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof, whereupon the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the amount of the payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Revolving Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage of the payment then due from the Borrower in U.S. Dollars, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Loans made by such Revolving Lender (and Section 2.06 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Lenders under this paragraph (e)), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph (e), the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph (e) to reimburse such Issuing Bank, then to such Revolving Lenders and such Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Revolving Lender pursuant to this paragraph (e) to reimburse any Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Revolving Loans as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement.

(f) Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section 2.05 shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the applicable Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.05, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s obligation hereunder. None of the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Lenders, the Issuing Banks or any of their respective Related Parties shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the applicable Issuing Bank; provided, that nothing in this Section 2.05(f) shall be construed to excuse any Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrower or any subsidiary that is a co-applicant with respect to a Letter of Credit to the extent of any direct damages suffered by the Borrower or such subsidiary that are caused by such Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank or its Related Parties (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), such Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents

presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of any Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

(g) Disbursement Procedures. The applicable Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit and shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower by telephone (confirmed by email or other electronic transmission) of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Bank has made or will make any LC Disbursement thereunder; provided, that no failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such Issuing Bank and the Revolving Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement.

(h) Interim Interest. If any Issuing Bank makes any LC Disbursement, unless the Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement (or the date on which such LC Disbursement is reimbursed with the proceeds of Loans, as applicable), at the rate per annum then applicable to Initial Revolving Loans that are ABR Loans (or, to the extent of the participation in such LC Disbursement by any Revolving Lender of another Class, the rate per annum then applicable to the ABR Revolving Loans of such other Class); provided that if the Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section 2.05, then Section 2.12(d) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph (h) shall be for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Revolving Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section 2.05 to reimburse such Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Revolving Lender to the extent of such payment and shall be payable on the date on which the Borrower is required to reimburse the applicable LC Disbursement in full (and, thereafter, on demand).

(i) Replacement of an Issuing Bank; Designation of New Issuing Banks. From time to time, the Borrower may (i) replace any Issuing Bank with any other Regulated Bank that shall have agreed to act in such capacity or (ii) designate as an additional Issuing Bank any Regulated Bank that shall have agreed to act in such capacity, in each case pursuant to an agreement in writing executed by the Borrower and such Regulated Bank; provided that such agreement shall set forth the LC Commitment of such replacement or additional Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Revolving Lenders of any such replacement or addition of an Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay (or cause to be paid) all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.11(b)(ii). From and after the effective date of any such replacement or addition, (i) the successor or additional Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or additional Issuing Bank or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor or additional Issuing Bank and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of any Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit then outstanding and issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

(j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Revolving Lenders demanding the deposit of Cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph (j), the Borrower shall deposit (or cause to be deposited), in an account maintained at such depository bank as is designated

by the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders (the “LC Collateral Account”), an amount in Cash and in U.S. Dollars equal to 103% of the amount of the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon (minus the amount then on deposit in the LC Collateral Account); provided that the obligation to deposit such Cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Borrower described in Section 7.01(f) or 7.01(g). The Borrower shall also deposit (or cause to be deposited) Cash collateral in accordance with this paragraph as and to the extent required by Section 2.19. Each such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the Secured Obligations in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph (j). The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over the LC Collateral Account, and the Borrower hereby grants the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a first priority security interest in the LC Collateral Account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the direction of the Borrower but subject to the consent of the Administrative Agent (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), and at the Borrower’s risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of the Required Revolving Lenders) be applied to satisfy other Secured Obligations. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of Cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (together with all interest and other earnings with respect thereto, to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower promptly (but in no event later than one Business Day) after such Event of Default has been cured or waived. If an amount of Cash collateral is required to be provided hereunder pursuant to Section 2.19, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower or otherwise applied in accordance with Section 2.19 as promptly as practicable to the extent that, after giving effect to such return, no Issuing Bank shall have any exposure in respect of any outstanding Letter of Credit that is not fully covered by the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders and/or the remaining Cash collateral and no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

(k) Issuing Bank Agreements. Each Issuing Bank agrees that such Issuing Bank shall report in writing to the Administrative Agent such information with respect to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request.

(l) Discretionary Letter of Credit Facility. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Borrower acknowledges that the letter of credit facility provided for in this Agreement is a discretionary facility as it relates to Apogem, and Apogem has not made any commitment with respect thereto. Accordingly, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Apogem, whether in its individual capacity and/or its capacity as an Issuing Bank, as applicable, hereunder, shall not be obligated to issue, increase the amount of, or extend the expiry date of, any Letter of Credit.

(m) Deutsche Bank as Issuing Bank. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.05, if and for so long as Deutsche Bank is an Issuing Bank hereunder, (i) any Letters of Credit issued by Deutsche Bank shall constitute a utilization of the Revolving Credit Commitments of Deutsche Bank in an amount equal to the Stated Amount thereof (and any such Letters of Credit shall reduce the available amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments of Deutsche Bank in a corresponding amount), (ii) the provisions of Section 2.05(c) shall not apply with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by Deutsche Bank and (iii) other provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, this Section 2.05, Sections

2.06 (Funding of Borrowings), 2.08 (Termination and Reduction of Commitments), 2.11(b) (LC Fees), 2.16 (Payments Generally; Allocation of Proceeds; Sharing of Payments), 2.19 (Defaulting Lenders), 2.20 (Incremental Credit Extensions), 2.21 (Extensions and Modifications), 9.02(d) (Waivers; Amendments), the definition of “LC Exposure” and the use of the term “pro rata share”) shall be deemed modified to the extent necessary to give effect to this Section 2.05(m) (and any determination as to the manner of any such modification by Deutsche Bank and the Borrower shall be valid and binding on the other parties hereto absent manifest error). Acquiom shall not be deemed to be, or required to be, an Issuing Bank hereunder, and as such Acquiom shall have no obligation to issue, increase the amount of, or extend the expiry date of, any Letter of Credit.

SECTION 2.06. Funding of Borrowings.

(a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder not later than (i) 1:00 p.m., New York City time, in the case of Term SOFR Loans, and (ii) 2:00 p.m., New York City time, in the case of ABR Loans, in each case, on the Business Day specified in the applicable Borrowing Request (or, in each case, in respect of any Loans to be made pursuant to any Incremental Facility Amendment or Refinancing Amendment (other than the First Amendment), such other time as may be specified therein) by wire transfer of immediately available funds in U.S. Dollars to such account of the Administrative Agent as has been most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly remitting the amounts so received, in like funds, to the account designated in the relevant Borrowing Request or as otherwise directed by the Borrower; provided that ABR Revolving Loans made to finance the reimbursement of any LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.05(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Issuing Bank.

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from any Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section 2.06 and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if any Lender has not in fact made its share of the Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand (without duplication) such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Loans comprising such Borrowing at such time. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing and the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount pursuant to this Section 2.06(b) shall cease. If the Borrower pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, the amount so paid shall constitute a repayment of such Borrowing by such amount. If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. Nothing herein shall be deemed to (i) relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment or to prejudice any rights which the Administrative Agent or the Borrower or any other Loan Party may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder or (ii) require Administrative Agent to advance funds on behalf of any Lender prior to Administrative Agent’s actual receipt of the required funds from the applicable Lender.

SECTION 2.07. Type; Interest Elections.

(a) Each Borrowing shall initially be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of any Term SOFR Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request or as otherwise provided in Section 2.03. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert any Borrowing to a Borrowing of a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Term SOFR Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section 2.07. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders of the applicable Class based upon their Applicable Percentages of such Class and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.07, the Borrower shall not be permitted to (i) elect an Interest Period for a Term SOFR Borrowing that does not comply with Section 2.02(d) or (ii) convert any Borrowing to a Borrowing of a Type not available under the Class of Commitments pursuant to which such Borrowing was made.

(b) To make an election pursuant to this Section 2.07, the Borrower shall deliver an Interest Election Request, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, to the Administrative Agent by no later than (i) in the case of any election to convert any Borrowing to, or to continue such Borrowing as, a Term SOFR Borrowing, 1:00 p.m., New York City time, three U.S. Government Securities Business Days prior to the effective date of such election and (ii) in the case of any election to convert any Borrowing to an ABR Borrowing, 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the effective date of such election (or, in each case, such later time as is reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent). Each Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

(i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

(ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;

(iii) the Type of the resulting Borrowing; and

(iv) if the resulting Borrowing is to be a Term SOFR Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”.

If any such Interest Election Request requests a Term SOFR Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

(c) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each applicable Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.

(d) If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Term SOFR Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein and subject to Section 2.13, at the end of such Interest Period, such Borrowing shall be continued as a Term SOFR Borrowing for an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if an Event of Default exists and the Administrative Agent,

at the request of the Required Lenders, notifies the Borrower any of the application of this sentence (provided that no such notification shall be required in the case of an Event of Default under Section 7.01(f), or 7.01(g)), then, so long as such Event of Default exists, the Borrower may not elect an Interest Period for any Term SOFR Borrowing of more than one months’ duration.

SECTION 2.08. Termination and Reduction of Commitments.

(a) Unless previously terminated, (i) the Initial Term Commitments in effect on the Closing Date shall automatically terminate upon the making of the Initial Term Loans on the Closing Date and, (ii) the Initial Revolving Credit Commitments shall automatically terminate on the Initial Revolving Credit Maturity Date, and (iii) the First Amendment Term Commitments in effect on the First Amendment Effective Date shall automatically terminate upon the making of the First Amendment Term Loans on the First Amendment Effective Date.

(b) Upon delivery of the notice required by Section 2.08(c), the Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments of any Class; provided that (i) each partial reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than $1,000,000 (or, in each case, such other amount as is reasonably acceptable to the Required Lenders) and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Revolving Credit Commitments of any Class if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of Revolving Loans, (A) the amount of any Revolving Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure attributable to the Revolving Credit Commitments of such Class would exceed such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment of such Class or (B) the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Exposure attributable to the Revolving Credit Commitments of such Class would exceed the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments of such Class.

(c) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of any election to terminate or reduce any Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section 2.08 no later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, one Business Day prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction (or such later time to which the Administrative Agent may agree), specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of each applicable Class of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.08 shall be irrevocable; provided that any such notice may state that it is conditioned upon the occurrence of one or more events specified therein, in which case such notice may be revoked if such condition is not satisfied by the Borrower delivering notice of revocation to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date. Any termination or reduction of any Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.08 shall be permanent. Upon any optional reduction of the Commitments of any Class, the Commitment of each Lender of the relevant Class shall be reduced by such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such reduction amount.

SECTION 2.09. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.

(a) (i) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to repay the outstanding principal amount of the Initial Term Loans to the Administrative Agent in U.S. Dollars, for the account of each Initial Term Lender, (A) on the last day of each March, June, September and December prior to the Initial Term Loan Maturity Date (commencing on the first such day to occur at least one full fiscal quarter after the Closing Date), in each case, in an amount equal to 0.25% of the original principal amount of the Initial Term Loans made on the Closing Date (as such payments may be reduced from time to time as a result of the application of prepayments in accordance with Section 2.10 and repurchase and assignments in accordance with Section 9.05(f) or increased as a result of any increase in the principal amount of the Initial Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.20(a)), and (B) on the Initial Term Loan Maturity Date, in an amount equal to the remainder of the principal amount of the Initial Term Loans outstanding on such date,

together with, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be paid to but excluding the date of such payment.

(ii) The Borrower shall repay the Additional Term Loans of any Class in such scheduled amortization payments and on such date or dates as shall be specified therefor in the applicable Refinancing Amendment, Incremental Facility Amendment or Extension/Modification Amendment (as such payments may be reduced from time to time as a result of the application of prepayments in accordance with Section 2.10 or repurchases and assignments in accordance with Section 9.05(f) or increased as a result of any increase in the principal amount of the Additional Term Loans of such Class pursuant to Section 2.20(a)).

(iii) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to repay the outstanding principal amount of the First Amendment Term Loans to the Administrative Agent in U.S. Dollars, for the account of each First Amendment Term Lender, (A) on the last day of each March, June, September and December prior to the Term Loan Maturity Date (commencing on the first such day to occur at least one full fiscal quarter after the First Amendment Effective Date), in each case, in an amount equal to 0.25% of the original principal amount of the First Amendment Term Loans made on the First Amendment Effective Date (as such payments may be reduced from time to time as a result of the application of prepayments in accordance with Section 2.10 and repurchase and assignments in accordance with Section 9.05(f) or increased as a result of any increase in the principal amount of the First Amendment Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.20(a)), and (B) on the Term Loan Maturity Date, in an amount equal to the remainder of the principal amount of the First Amendment Term Loans outstanding on such date, together with, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be paid to but excluding the date of such payment.

(b) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Initial Revolving Lender, the then outstanding principal amount of each Initial Revolving Loan made by such Lender to the Borrower on the Initial Revolving Credit Maturity Date and (ii) to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Additional Revolving Lender, the then outstanding principal amount of each Additional Revolving Loan made by such Additional Revolving Lender to the Borrower on the Maturity Date applicable thereto.

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

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

(e) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (c) or (d) of this Section 2.09 shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein (absent manifest error); provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any manifest error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; provided further that the Register shall govern in the event of any inconsistency between Register and any Lender’s records.

(f) Any Lender may request that any Loan made by it be evidenced by a Promissory Note. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver a Promissory Note to such Lender payable to such Lender and its registered permitted assigns; it being understood and agreed that such Lender (and/or its applicable permitted assign) shall be required to return such Promissory Note to the Borrower in accordance with Section 9.05(b)(iii) and upon the occurrence of the Termination Date (or as promptly thereafter as practicable). If any Lender loses the original copy of its Promissory Note, it shall execute an affidavit of loss containing an indemnification provision reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower.

SECTION 2.10. Prepayment of Loans.

(a) Optional Prepayments.

(i) Upon prior notice in accordance with paragraph (a)(iii) of this Section 2.10, the Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing of Term Loans of any Class, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty (but subject to Sections 2.11(e) and 2.14(e)). Each such prepayment shall be paid to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages of the relevant Class.

(ii) Upon prior notice in accordance with paragraph (a)(iii) of this Section 2.10, the Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing of Revolving Loans of any Class, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty (subject to Section 2.14(e)). Each such prepayment shall be paid to the Revolving Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages of the relevant Class.

(iii) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of any prepayment under this Section 2.10(a) (A) in the case of any prepayment of a Term SOFR Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment or (B) in the case of any prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, one (1) Business Day before the date of prepayment (or, in each case such later time as to which the Administrative Agent may agree). Each such notice shall be irrevocable (except as set forth in the proviso to this sentence) and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that any such notice may be conditioned upon the occurrence of one or more events specified therein, in which case such notice may be revoked if such condition is not satisfied by the Borrower delivering written notice of revocation to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified prepayment date. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to any Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the applicable Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount at least equal to the amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type and Class as provided in Section 2.02(c). Each prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.10(a) shall be applied to the Class of Term Loans specified in the applicable prepayment notice, and each such prepayment of Term Loans of such Class shall be applied against the remaining scheduled amortization payments due in respect of the Term Loans of such Class in the manner specified by the Borrower or, in the absence of any such specification on or prior to the date of the relevant optional prepayment, in direct order of maturity.

(b) Mandatory Prepayments.

(i) No later than the 10th Business Day after the date on which the financial statements with respect to each Fiscal Year of the Borrower are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(b), commencing with the Fiscal Year ending on December 31, 2026, the Borrower shall prepay the outstanding principal amount of Term Loans, and accrued and unpaid interest thereon, in accordance with Section 2.10(b)(vii) in an aggregate amount (the “ECF Prepayment

Amount”) equal to (A) the Required Excess Cash Flow Percentage of Excess Cash Flow for such Fiscal Year, minus (B) at the option of the Borrower, the Excess Cash Flow Credits with respect to such Fiscal Year; provided that no prepayment under this Section 2.10(b)(i) shall be required unless the ECF Prepayment Amount would exceed the greater of (x) $8,900,000 and (y) 10% of Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA for the most recently ended Test Period; provided further that if, at the time that any prepayment would be required under this Section 2.10(b)(i), the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is required to prepay or repurchase (or offer to prepay or repurchase) any Other First Lien Indebtedness with any portion of the ECF Prepayment Amount pursuant to the terms of such Other First Lien Indebtedness, then the Borrower may apply such portion of the ECF Prepayment Amount on a pro rata basis (determined on the basis of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans and the relevant Other First Lien Indebtedness at such time; provided that the portion of such ECF Prepayment Amount allocated to the Other First Lien Indebtedness shall not exceed the amount of such ECF Prepayment Amount required to be allocated to the Other First Lien Indebtedness pursuant to the terms thereof, and the remaining amount, if any, of such ECF Prepayment Amount shall be allocated to the Term Loans in accordance with the terms hereof) to the prepayment of the Term Loans in accordance with the terms hereof and to the prepayment or repurchase of the relevant Other First Lien Indebtedness, and the amount of the prepayment of the Term Loans that would have otherwise been required pursuant to this Section 2.10(b)(i) shall be reduced accordingly; provided further that to the extent the holders of the Other First Lien Indebtedness decline to have such Indebtedness prepaid or repurchased, the declined amount shall promptly (and in any event no later than the 10th Business Day after the date of such declination) be applied to prepay the Term Loans in accordance with the terms hereof.

(ii) In the event that Holdings, the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries receives Net Proceeds in respect of any Prepayment Asset Sale or any Casualty/Condemnation Event, in each case, with respect to any single Prepayment Asset Sale or Casualty/Condemnation Event (or series of related Prepayment Asset Sales or Casualty/Condemnation Events), in excess of the greater of (x) $8,900,000 and (y) 10% of Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA for the most recently ended Test Period, then the Borrower shall, not later than the 10th Business Day following receipt of such Net Proceeds (such Net Proceeds being referred to as the “Specified Net Proceeds”), apply 100% of the Specified Net Proceeds to prepay the outstanding principal amount of Term Loans, and accrued and unpaid interest thereon, in accordance with Section 2.10(b)(vii); provided that (A) if the Borrower and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries intend to reinvest any Specified Net Proceeds in the business of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than Cash or Cash Equivalents, but including in the case of any Casualty/Condemnation Event, any repair or replacement of the relevant assets affected by such Casualty/Condemnation Event), then, so long as no Event of Default under Section 7.01(a), 7.01(f) or 7.01(g) exists on the date such prepayment would otherwise have been required to be made (such date, the “Required Prepayment Date”), the Borrower shall not be required to make a prepayment under this Section 2.10(b)(ii) in respect of such Specified Net Proceeds; provided further that to the extent any such Specified Net Proceeds have not been so reinvested within 12 months following the Required Prepayment Date (or, if the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries has committed (pursuant to a binding commitment) so to reinvest any such Specified Net Proceeds during such 12-month period and any such Specified Net Proceeds have not been so reinvested, within 180 days after the expiration of such 12-month period), the Borrower shall promptly (and in any event no later than the 10th Business Day after the expiration of the applicable period) prepay an outstanding principal amount of Term Loans, and accrued and unpaid interest thereon, in accordance with the terms hereof (but without giving effect to the reinvestment right set forth above) in an aggregate amount equal to the amount of such Specified Net Proceeds not so reinvested and (B) if at the time that any prepayment would be required under this Section 2.10(b)(ii), the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is required

to prepay or repurchase (or offer to prepay or repurchase) any Other First Lien Indebtedness with any portion of the applicable Specified Net Proceeds pursuant to the terms of such Other First Lien Indebtedness, then the Borrower may apply such portion of the applicable Specified Net Proceeds on a pro rata basis (determined on the basis of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans and the relevant Other First Lien Indebtedness at such time; provided that the portion of the applicable Specified Net Proceeds allocated to the Other First Lien Indebtedness shall not exceed the amount of the Specified Net Proceeds required to be allocated to the Other First Lien Indebtedness pursuant to the terms thereof, and the remaining amount, if any, of the Specified Net Proceeds shall be allocated to the Term Loans in accordance with the terms hereof) to the prepayment of the Term Loans in accordance with the terms hereof and to the prepayment or repurchase of the relevant Other First Lien Indebtedness, and the amount of the prepayment of the Term Loans that would have otherwise been required pursuant to this Section 2.10(b)(ii) shall be reduced accordingly; provided further that to the extent the holders of the Other First Lien Indebtedness decline to have such Indebtedness prepaid or repurchased, the declined portion of the applicable Specified Net Proceeds shall promptly (and in any event no later than the 10th Business Day after the date of such declination) be applied to prepay the Term Loans in accordance with the terms hereof.

(iii) In the event that the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries receives Net Proceeds from the incurrence of Indebtedness by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than Indebtedness that is permitted to be incurred under Section 6.01, except to the extent the relevant Indebtedness constitutes (A) Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to refinance all or a portion of any Class of Term Loans pursuant to Section 6.01(p), (B) Incremental Loans incurred to refinance all or a portion of any Class of Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.20, (C) Replacement Term Loans incurred to refinance all or any portion of any Class of Term Loans in accordance with the requirements of Section 9.02(c) and/or (D) Incremental Equivalent Debt incurred to refinance all or a portion of any Class of Term Loans, in each case to the extent required by the terms thereof to prepay such Term Loans), the Borrower shall, promptly upon (and in any event not later than two Business Days after) the receipt of such Net Proceeds by the Borrower or its applicable Restricted Subsidiary, apply an amount equal to 100% of such Net Proceeds to prepay the outstanding principal amount of the relevant Class or Classes of Term Loans, and accrued and unpaid interest thereon, in accordance with clause (vii) of this Section 2.10(b).

(iv) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.10(b) to the contrary:

(A) the Borrower shall not be required to prepay any amount that would otherwise be required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.10(b)(i) or 2.10(b)(ii) to the extent that the relevant Excess Cash Flow is generated by any Foreign Subsidiary or the relevant Net Proceeds are received by any Foreign Subsidiary, as the case may be, for so long as the repatriation to the Borrower of any such amount would be, in the good faith determination of the Borrower, prohibited or delayed under any applicable law or conflict with the fiduciary duties of such Foreign Subsidiary’s directors, or result in, or could reasonably be expected to result in, a material risk of personal or criminal liability for any officer, director, employee, manager or member of management of such Foreign Subsidiary (Holdings and the Borrower hereby agreeing to cause the applicable Foreign Subsidiary to promptly take all commercially reasonable actions required by applicable law to permit such repatriation); it being understood that if the repatriation of the relevant affected Excess Cash Flow or Net Proceeds, as the case may be, is permitted under the applicable law and, to the extent applicable, would no longer conflict with the fiduciary duties of such director, or result in, or be reasonably expected to result in, a material risk of personal or criminal liability for the Persons described above, the relevant Foreign

Subsidiary will promptly repatriate the relevant Excess Cash Flow or Net Proceeds, as the case may be, and the repatriated Excess Cash Flow or Net Proceeds, as the case may be, will be promptly (and in any event not later than two Business Days after such repatriation) applied (net of additional Taxes payable or reserved against such Excess Cash Flow or such Net Proceeds as a result thereof) to the prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.10(b) to the extent required herein (without regard to this clause (A)); provided that the foregoing repatriation and prepayment requirements shall cease to apply 365 days after the end of the applicable Fiscal Year or the occurrence of the event giving rise to the relevant Net Proceeds; and

(B) if the Borrower determines in good faith that the repatriation to the Borrower as a distribution or dividend of any amounts required to mandatorily prepay the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.10(b)(i) or 2.10(b)(ii) that are attributable to Foreign Subsidiaries would result in material and adverse Tax consequences (including any withholding Tax) to the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole (taking into account any foreign Tax credit or benefit actually realized in connection with such repatriation or other distribution or transfer) (such amount, a “Restricted Amount”), the amount that the Borrower shall be required to mandatorily prepay pursuant to Section 2.10(b)(i) or 2.10(b)(ii), as applicable, shall be reduced by the Restricted Amount; it being understood that to the extent that the repatriation of the relevant Excess Cash Flow or the relevant Net Proceeds from the relevant Foreign Subsidiary would no longer have such material and adverse Tax consequence (taking into account any foreign Tax credit or benefit actually realized in connection with such repatriation or other distribution or transfer), an amount equal to the Excess Cash Flow or the Net Proceeds, as applicable and to the extent available, not previously applied pursuant to this clause (B) shall be promptly applied to the repayment of the Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.10(b) to the extent required herein (without regard to this clause (B)); provided that the foregoing prepayment requirement shall cease to apply 365 days after the end of the applicable Fiscal Year or the occurrence of the event giving rise to the relevant Net Proceeds.

(v) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of any mandatory prepayment under Section 2.10(b)(i), 2.10(b)(ii) or 2.10(b)(iii) not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of such prepayment (or such later time as shall be practicable under the circumstances); provided that any such notice may state that it is conditioned upon the occurrence of one or more events specified therein, in which case such notice may be revoked if such condition is not satisfied by the Borrower delivering notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such mandatory prepayment would otherwise be required to be made.

(vi) In connection with any mandatory prepayment of Term Loans required to be made by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.10(b)(i) or 2.10(b)(ii), any Term Lender may elect, by written notice to the Administrative Agent at or prior to the time and in the manner specified by the Administrative Agent (after consultation with the Borrower), prior to such mandatory prepayment to decline all (but not a portion) of its Applicable Percentage of such prepayment (such declined amounts, the “Declined Proceeds”), in which case the Declined Proceeds will be retained by the Borrower. If any Lender fails to deliver a notice to the Administrative Agent of its election to decline receipt of its Applicable Percentage of any such mandatory prepayment within the time frame specified by the Administrative Agent, such failure will be deemed to constitute an acceptance of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the total amount of such mandatory prepayment of Term Loans.

(vii) Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.10(b)(vi) or in any Refinancing Amendment, any Incremental Facility Amendment or any Extension/Modification Amendment, each prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.10(b) shall be applied ratably to each Class of Term Loans then outstanding, provided that any prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.10(b)(iii) shall be applied to the applicable Class or Classes of Term Loans being refinanced. With respect to each Class of Term Loans, all prepayments under this Section 2.10(b) shall be applied against the remaining scheduled amortization payments due in respect of such Term Loans as directed by the Borrower or, in the absence of such direction, in direct order of maturity, and each such prepayment shall, except as otherwise provided pursuant to Section 2.10(b)(vi), be paid to the Term Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentage of the applicable Class. Any mandatory prepayment by the Borrower of the Term Loans of any Class pursuant to this Section 2.10(b) shall be applied on a pro rata basis to the then outstanding Term Loans of such Class, irrespective of whether such outstanding Term Loans are ABR Loans or Term SOFR Loans; provided that, in the case of a mandatory prepayment under Section 2.10(b)(iii) or, if no Lenders exercise the right to waive such mandatory prepayment pursuant to Section 2.10(b)(vi), any other clause of this Section 2.10(b), the amount of such mandatory prepayment shall be applied first to the then outstanding Term Loans of such Class that are ABR Loans and then to the then outstanding Term Loans of such Class that are Term SOFR Loans.

(viii) Prepayments made under this Section 2.10(b) shall be (A) accompanied by accrued interest as required by Section 2.12 and (B) subject to Sections 2.11(e) and 2.14(e), but shall otherwise be without premium or penalty.

SECTION 2.11. Fees.

(a) The Borrower agrees to pay (or cause to be paid) to the Administrative Agent, in U.S. Dollars, for the account of each Revolving Lender of any Class (other than any Defaulting Lender) a commitment fee, which shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to the Commitment Fee Rate applicable to the Revolving Credit Commitments of such Class on the average daily amount of the unused Revolving Credit Commitment of such Class of such Revolving Lender during the period from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the date on which such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment of such Class terminates. Commitment fees accrued pursuant to this Section 2.11(a) through and including the last day of each March, June, September and December (commencing with the first such day to occur after the Closing Date) shall be payable in arrears on such last day, and accrued commitment fees shall also be payable on the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitments of the applicable Class terminate.

(b) The Borrower agrees to pay (or cause to be paid) (i) to the Administrative Agent, in U.S. Dollars, for the account of each Revolving Lender of any Class a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which fee shall accrue at the Applicable Rate used to determine the interest rate applicable to Revolving Loans of such Class that are Term SOFR Loans on the daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof that is attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements and any portion thereof that is attributable to Letters of Credit that are cash collateralized or backstopped in accordance with this Agreement) attributable to its Revolving Credit Commitment of such Class, during the period from and including the Closing Date to the earlier of (A) the later of the date on which such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment of such Class terminates and the date on which such Revolving Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure attributable to its Revolving Credit Commitment of such Class and (B) the Termination Date, and (ii) to each Issuing Bank, for its own account, a fronting fee, in U.S. Dollars, in respect of each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, for the period from the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit to the earlier of (A) the expiration date of such Letter of Credit, (B) the date on which such Letter of Credit terminates or (C) the Termination Date, which shall

accrue at the rate separately agreed by such Issuing Bank and the Borrower of the daily amount of the LC Exposure attributable to such Letter of Credit (excluding any portion thereof that is attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements and except to the extent such Letter of Credit is cash collateralized or backstopped in accordance with this Agreement), as well as such Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of each March, June, September and December (commencing with the first such day to occur after the Closing Date) shall be payable in arrears on such last day; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitments of the applicable Class terminate, and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitments of the applicable Class terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to any Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within 30 days after receipt of a written demand (accompanied by reasonable back-up documentation) therefor.

(c) The Borrower agrees to pay (or cause to be paid) to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, the agency and annual administration fees described in the Agent Fee Letter. The Borrower further agrees to pay (or cause to be paid) to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the relevant Person, any other fees described in the Fee Letter and the First Amendment Fee Letter.

(d) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in U.S. Dollars and in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the applicable Issuing Bank, in the case of fees payable to any Issuing Bank). Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances except as otherwise provided in the Fee Letter.

(e) In the event that, prior to the date that is twenty-four (24) months after the Closing Date, the Borrower (1) prepays any Initial Term Loan or any First Amendment Term Loan pursuant to Section 2.10(a) or (2) prepays or refinances any Initial Term Loans any First Amendment Term Loan pursuant to Section 2.10(b)(ii) and/or Section 2.10(b)(iii) (it being understood and agreed for the avoidance of doubt that payments as a result of assignments made to Affiliated Lenders pursuant to Section 9.05, in each case, shall not be subject to this Section 2.11(e)), the Borrower shall pay (or cause to be paid) to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of each of the applicable Initial Term Lenders or the applicable First Amendment Term Loan Lenders, as applicable, (the “Prepayment Premium”) (A) on or prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date, a premium of 2.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the Initial Term Loans and First Amendment Term Loans so prepaid, repaid or replaced and (B) after the first anniversary of the Closing Date but on or prior to the date that is the second anniversary of the Closing Date, a premium of 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the Initial Term Loans and First Amendment Term Loans so prepaid, repaid or replaced; provided, that in no event shall such Prepayment Premium apply or be payable in connection with any prepayment, repayment, refinancing substitution, replacement, amendment, waiver or other modification in connection with a Qualifying IPO or a Change of Control. For the avoidance of doubt, no Prepayment Premium shall be payable hereunder in connection with any prepayment with respect to Initial Term Loans or First Amendment Term Loans after the second anniversary of the Closing Date. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that if any Initial Term Loans and/or First Amendment Term Loans are accelerated or otherwise become due and payable prior to their maturity date, in each case, in respect of any Event of Default (including, but not limited to, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under Sections 7.01(f) or 7.01(g) or any acceleration of the Loans (including the acceleration of claims by operation of law)), the Prepayment Premium applicable with respect to a prepayment of such Initial Term Loans and/or First Amendment Term Loans, as applicable, will also be due and payable as though such Loans were voluntarily prepaid and shall constitute part of the Obligations, in view of the impracticability and extreme difficulty of ascertaining actual damages and by mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable calculation of each Lender’s lost profits as a result thereof. Any Prepayment Premium payable above shall be presumed to be the liquidated damages sustained by each such Lender as the result of the early termination and the Borrower agrees that

it is reasonable under the circumstances currently existing. The Prepayment Premium shall also be payable on the outstanding principal amount of such Loans in the event the Obligations (and/or this Agreement or the notes evidencing the Obligations) are satisfied or released by foreclosure (whether by power of judicial proceeding), deed in lieu of foreclosure or by any other means. THE BORROWER EXPRESSLY WAIVES, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE FOREGOING PREPAYMENT PREMIUM ON THE OUTSTANDING PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF SUCH LOANS IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH ACCELERATION. The Borrower expressly agrees that: (A) the Prepayment Premium on the outstanding principal amount of the Initial Term Loans isand First Amendment Term Loans is, in each case, reasonable and is the product of an arm’s length transaction between sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel; (B) the Prepayment Premium on the outstanding principal amount of the Initial Term Loans and First Amendment Term Loans shall, in each case, be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made; (C) there has been a course of conduct between Lenders and the Borrower giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the Prepayment Premium; and (D) the Borrower shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this paragraph. Borrower expressly acknowledges that its agreement to pay the Prepayment Premium on the outstanding principal amount of the Initial Term Loans and/or the First Amendment Term Loans, to such Lenders as herein described is a material inducement to the Lenders, as applicable, to make the applicable Loans.

(f) Unless otherwise indicated herein, all computations of accruing or accrued fees shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and shall be payable for the actual days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). Each determination by the Administrative Agent of the amount of any fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(g) In the event that the Borrower or a Lender reasonably determine any Compliance Certificate delivered under Section 5.01(c) shall have been materially inaccurate, and such inaccuracy shall have resulted in the payment of any interest or fees with respect to Loans or Commitments of any Class at rates lower than those that were in fact applicable for any period, then, if such inaccuracy is discovered prior to the repayment in full of the principal of all Loans and the termination of all Commitments of such Class, (i) if the determination of such inaccuracy shall have been made by the Borrower, the Borrower shall, promptly after such determination, notify the Administrative Agent in writing thereof and (ii) the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for distribution to the Lenders of such Class as their interests may appear, any additional interest or fees that should have been paid but were not paid as a result of such inaccuracy, such payment to be made promptly upon (and in no event later than two Business Days after) the determination of the actual amount of such additional interest or fees. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any such additional interest or fees hereunder shall not be due and payable until they are due and payable pursuant to this Section 2.11(g) and accordingly, any nonpayment of such interest or fees as a result of any such inaccuracy shall not, in itself, constitute a Default (whether retroactively or otherwise) (provided, for the avoidance of doubt, that this clause shall not apply to nonpayment of amounts when due pursuant to clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence, which shall constitute a Default).

SECTION 2.12. Interest.

(a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate.

(b) The Loans comprising each Term SOFR Borrowing shall bear interest at the Term SOFR for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan, any LC Disbursement or any fee payable by the Borrower hereunder is not, in each case, paid or reimbursed when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, the relevant overdue amount shall bear interest, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal or interest of any Loan or unreimbursed LC Disbursement, 2.00% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan or LC Disbursement as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 2.12 or in Section 2.05(h) or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2.00% plus the rate applicable to Revolving Loans that are ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section 2.12; provided that no amount shall accrue pursuant to this Section 2.12(d) on any overdue amount, reimbursement obligation in respect of any LC Disbursement or other amount that is payable to any Defaulting Lender so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender.

(e) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears (i) on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan, (ii) on the Maturity Date applicable to such Loan and (iii) in the case of a Revolving Loan of any Class, upon termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments of such Class, as applicable; provided that (A) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section 2.12 shall be payable on demand, (B) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than an ABR Revolving Loan of any Class prior to the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments of such Class), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (C) in the event of any conversion or continuation of any Term SOFR Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion or continuation. All interest shall be payable in U.S. Dollars.

(f) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Term SOFR or Alternate Base Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid; provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall bear interest for one day.

SECTION 2.13. Alternate Rate of Interest.

(a) Subject to Section 2.13(b), (i) if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Term SOFR Borrowing that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Term SOFR for such Interest Period (including because the Term SOFR Reference Rate is not available or published on a current basis) or (ii) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Term SOFR Borrowing, the Term SFOR for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or Loan) included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period, then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof (which may be by telephone) to the Borrower and the Lenders as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until (A) 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 (B) the Borrower delivers a new Interest Election Request in accordance with Section 2.07 or a new Borrowing Request in accordance with Section 2.03, any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Term SOFR Borrowing for such Interest Period and any Borrowing Request that requests a Term SOFR Borrowing for such Interest Period shall instead be deemed to be an Interest Election Request or a Borrowing Request, as applicable for an

ABR Borrowing. Furthermore, if any Term SOFR Loan is outstanding on the date of the Borrower’s receipt of the notice from the Administrative Agent referred to in this Section 2.13(a) with respect to the Term SOFR, then until (1) the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist with respect thereto, and (2) the Borrower delivers a new Interest Election Request in accordance with Section 2.07 or a new Borrowing Request in accordance with Section 2.03, any affected Term SOFR Loan shall, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period applicable to such Loan, convert to, and shall constitute, an ABR Loan.

(b) (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event has occurred in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then the Required Lenders and the Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace the then- current Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement. Any such amendment with respect to a Benchmark Transition Event will become effective at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the fifth 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. No replacement of a Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this Section 2.13(b) will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, in connection with the use, administration, adoption or 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.

(iii) The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (A) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement and (B) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower of the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) below. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 2.13(b), 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 2.13(b).

(iv) 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), (A) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR) and either (1) 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 (2) 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 nonrepresentative tenor and (B) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (A) above either (1) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (2) 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.

(v) Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of any affected Term SOFR Borrowing to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that the Borrower will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to an ABR Borrowing. Furthermore, if any Term SOFR Loan is outstanding on the date of the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period with respect to the Term SOFR, then, until such time as a Benchmark Replacement is implemented pursuant to this Section 2.13(b), any Term SOFR Loan shall on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan convert to, and shall constitute, an ABR Loan. 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 Alternate 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 Alternate Base Rate.

SECTION 2.14. Increased Costs; Break Funding Payments.

(a) If any Change in Law:

(i) imposes, modifies or deems applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender or Issuing Bank;

(ii) subjects any Lender or Issuing Bank to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes or (B) Excluded Taxes) on or with respect to its loans, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(iii) imposes on any Lender or Issuing Bank or the market for secured overnight financing rates any other condition (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Term Benchmark Loans made by any Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to the relevant Lender of making or maintaining any Term SOFR Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender or Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) in respect of any Term SOFR Loan or Letter of Credit in an amount deemed by such Lender or Issuing Bank to be material, then, within 30 days after the receipt by the Borrower of the certificate contemplated by paragraph (c) of this Section 2.14, the Borrower will pay (or cause to be paid) to such Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered; provided that the Borrower shall not be liable for such compensation if (A) the relevant Change in Law occurs on a date prior to the date such Lender becomes a party hereto or (B) such Lender invokes Section 2.18.

(b) If any Lender or Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding liquidity or capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for

such Change in Law other than due to Taxes (taking into consideration such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity) in an amount deemed by such Lender or Issuing Bank to be material, then, within 30 days of receipt by the Borrower of the certificate contemplated by paragraph (c) of this Section 2.14, the Borrower will pay (or cause to be paid) to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as applicable, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered; provided that the Borrower shall not be liable for such compensation if (i) the relevant Change in Law occurs on a date prior to the date such Lender becomes a party hereto or (ii) such Lender invokes Section 2.18.

(c) Any Lender or Issuing Bank requesting compensation under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 2.14 shall be required to deliver a certificate to the Borrower that sets forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or the holding company thereof, as applicable, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 2.14, , which certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay (or cause to be paid) to such Lender or Issuing Bank the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 30 days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate any Lender or Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section 2.14 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or Issuing Bank notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

(e) Break Funding Payments. In the event of (i) the payment or prepayment of any principal of any Term SOFR Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default or as a result of any prepayment pursuant to Section 2.10), (ii) the conversion of any Term SOFR Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (iii) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Term SOFR Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.08(c) and is revoked in accordance therewith), or (iv) the assignment of any Term SOFR Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.17(b), then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event (but excluding loss of profits). Such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be limited to the excess, if any, of (A) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Term SOFR Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted Term SOFR that would have been applicable to such Term SOFR Loan (and without taking into account the Applicable Rate) for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (B) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the Adjusted Term SOFR that would have been applicable to such Loan (and without taking into account the Applicable Rate), for an Interest Period commencing on the date of such event and ending at or as nearly as possible to the last day of the then current Interest Period for such Loan (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the last day of the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan). A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 30 days after receipt thereof.

SECTION 2.15. Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower or any other Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment, then (i) if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, the amount payable by the Borrower or other Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after all such required deductions or withholdings have been made (including deductions or withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.15) each Lender (or, in the case of any payment made to the Administrative Agent for its own account, the Administrative Agent) 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 be entitled to make such deductions or 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.

(b) The Borrower and other Loan Parties shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law or, at the option of the Administrative Agent, timely reimburse it for the payment of any such Other Taxes (in each case, without duplication of any amounts paid under Section 2.15(a)) to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c) The Borrower and other Loan Parties shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and shall make payment in respect thereof, within 30 days after receipt of the certificate described in the succeeding sentence, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes payable or paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.15), or required to be withheld and deducted from any payment to the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and any interest, or penalties, other than any penalties determined by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction (or documented in any settlement agreement) to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, and, in each case, any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not correctly or legally imposed or asserted; provided that if the Borrower reasonably believes that such Taxes were not correctly or legally asserted, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, will use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to obtain a refund of such Taxes (which shall be repaid to the Borrower or other Loan Party to the extent required under Section 2.15(g)) so long as such efforts would not, in the sole determination of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, result in any additional out-of-pocket costs or expenses not reimbursed by the Borrower or other Loan Party or in the Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s, as applicable, reasonable judgment be otherwise materially disadvantageous to the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable. In connection with any request for reimbursement under this Section 2.15(c), the relevant Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, shall deliver a certificate to the Borrower setting forth, in reasonable detail, the basis and calculation of the amount of the relevant payment or liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.15, the Borrower and other Loan Parties shall not be required to indemnify the Administrative Agent or any Lender pursuant to this Section 2.15 for any amount to the extent the Administrative Agent or such Lender fails to notify the Borrower of such possible indemnification claim within 180 days after the Administrative Agent or such Lender receives written notice from the applicable taxing authority of the specific tax assessment giving rise to such indemnification claim.

(d) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 30 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes imposed on or with respect to any payment under any Loan Document that is attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that neither the Borrower nor any

101

other Loan Party has already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.05(c) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes that are attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent 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. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent 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 to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to any Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (d).

(e) As soon as practicable after any payment of any Taxes pursuant to this Section 2.15 by the Borrower or any other Loan Party to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued, if any, by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment that is reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(f) (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of any withholding Tax with respect to any payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation as the Borrower or the Administrative Agent may reasonably request to permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Sections 2.15(f)(ii)(A), 2.15(f)(ii)(B) and 2.15(f)(ii)(D)) shall not be required if in the 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. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to deliver to the Borrower and to any successor Administrative Agent any documentation provided to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.15(f).

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

(A) each U.S. Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such U.S. Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), two copies of signed IRS Form W-9 (or any successor form) certifying that such Lender is not subject to U.S. federal backup withholding Tax;

(B) each Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(1) in the case of any Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the U.S. is a party, two copies of signed IRS Form W-

102

8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or any successor form), establishing any available exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax;

(2) two copies of signed IRS Form W-8ECI (or any successor form);

(3) in the case of any Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, (x) two copies of a signed certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit K-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of any applicable Borrower within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code(a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) two copies of signed IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or any successor form); or

(4) to the extent any Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, two copies of signed IRS Form W-8IMY (or any successor form), accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8EXP, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or any successor form), a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit K-2 or Exhibit K-4, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if such Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit K-3 on behalf of each such direct or indirect partner(s);

(C) each Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), two copies of any other signed form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(D) if a payment made to any 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 Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by applicable law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation as is prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine whether such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Each Lender agrees that if any documentation (including any specific documentation required above in this Section 2.15(f)) it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in

103

any respect, it shall update such documentation or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal ineligibility to do so.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.15(f), no Lender shall be required to provide any documentation that such Lender is not legally eligible to deliver.

(g) If the Administrative Agent or any Lender determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund (whether received in cash or applied as a credit against any cash taxes payable) of any Indemnified Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or any other Loan Party or with respect to which the Borrower or other Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.15, it shall pay over such refund to the Borrower or other Loan Party (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower or other Loan Party under this Section 2.15 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender (including any Taxes imposed with respect to such refund), and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the Borrower or other Loan Party, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower or other Loan Party pursuant to this paragraph (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the Administrative Agent or any Lender be required to pay any amount to the Borrower or any other Loan Party pursuant to this paragraph (g) to the extent that the payment thereof would place the Administrative Agent or such Lender in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the position that the Administrative Agent or such Lender would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This Section 2.15 shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or other Loan Party or any other Person.

(h) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.15 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, any Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

(i) Administrative Agent Documentation. On or before the Closing Date, the Administrative Agent shall (and any successor or replacement Administrative Agent shall on or before the date on which it becomes the Administrative Agent hereunder) deliver to the Borrower two duly signed copies of either (i) IRS Form W-9 (or any successor form) or (ii) if the Administrative Agent is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, IRS Form W-8ECI or W-8BEN-E (or any successor form) (with respect to any payments to be received on its own behalf) and IRS Form W-8IMY (or any successor form) (for all other payments), certifying that it either is (x) a “qualified intermediary” which has assumed primary withholding responsibility under Chapters 3 and 4 of the Code and primary Form 1099 reporting and backup withholding responsibility, or (y) a “U.S. branch” and that the payments it receives for the account of others are not effectively connected with the conduct of its trade or business within the United States and that it is using such form as evidence of its agreement with the Borrower to be treated as a United States person with respect to such payments (and the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree to so treat the Administrative Agent as a United States person with respect to such payments as contemplated by Section 1.1441-1(b)(2)(iv) of the United States Treasury Regulations). Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to

104

deliver any documentation that the Administrative Agent is not legally eligible to deliver as a result of a change in law.

(j) Definition of Lender. The term “Lender” shall, for all purposes of this Section 2.15, include any Issuing Bank.

SECTION 2.16. Payments Generally; Allocation of Proceeds; Sharing of Payments.

(a) Unless otherwise specified, the Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest or fees, reimbursements of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.14 or 2.15, or otherwise) prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amount received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. Each such payment shall be made to the Administrative Agent to the applicable account designated by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower, except that any payment made pursuant to Section 2.14, 2.15 or 9.03 shall be made directly to the Person or Persons entitled thereto and any payment required to be made directly to any Issuing Bank shall be so made. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payment received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. Each Lender agrees that in computing such Lender’s portion of any Borrowing to be made hereunder, the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, round each Lender’s percentage of such Borrowing to the next higher or lower whole unit of U.S. Dollars. All payments hereunder of principal or interest in respect of any Loan or LC Disbursement and all other payments hereunder and under each other Loan Document shall be made in U.S. Dollars. Any payment required to be made by the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be deemed to have been made by the date and time required if the Administrative Agent shall, at or before such time, have taken the necessary steps to make such payment in accordance with the regulations or operating procedures of the clearing or settlement system used by the Administrative Agent to make such payment.

(b) Subject in all respects to the provisions of each applicable Intercreditor Agreement, all proceeds of Collateral and any proceeds realized with respect to any Loan Guaranties received by the Administrative Agent while an Event of Default exists and all or any portion of the Loans have been accelerated hereunder pursuant to Section 7.01, shall be applied, first, to the payment of all costs and expenses then due incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with any collection, sale or realization on Collateral or otherwise in connection with this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any of the Secured Obligations, including all court costs and the fees and expenses of agents and legal counsel, the repayment of all advances made by the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document on behalf of the Borrower or any other Loan Party and any other costs or expenses incurred in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document, second, on a pro rata basis, to pay any fees, indemnities or expense reimbursements then due to the Administrative Agent (other than those covered in clause first above) or to any Issuing Bank or Lender from the Borrower constituting Secured Obligations, third, on a pro rata basis, to pay interest and fees due and payable in respect of the Loans and any other Secured Obligations owed to the Secured Parties on the date of any such distribution, fourth, on a pro rata basis, to (i) payment of the portion of the Obligations constituting LC Exposure (including to Cash collateralize that portion of LC Exposure comprised of the Outstanding Amount of undrawn Letters of Credit), (ii) payment of the portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid principal on the Loans, (iii) payment of breakage, termination and other amounts then due and owing in respect of any Secured Hedging Obligations or Banking Services Obligations in an aggregate amount not to exceed $10,000,000 and (iv) payment of any other Secured Obligation (other than any Secured Hedging Obligations or Banking Services Obligations) due to any Secured Party, fifth, on a pro rata basis, to payment of any other Secured Obligations, sixth, as provided in each applicable Intercreditor Agreement and seventh, to, or at the direction of, the Borrower or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

105

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amount received from any Guarantor shall be applied pursuant to this Section 2.16(b) to any Excluded Swap Obligation of such Guarantor.

(c) If any Lender obtains payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off or otherwise) in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans of any Class or participations in LC Disbursements held by it resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans of such Class or participations in LC Disbursements and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender with Loans of such Class or participations in LC Disbursements, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for Cash at face value) participations in the Loans of such Class of the other Lenders or sub-participations in LC Disbursements of the other Lenders at such time outstanding to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders of each applicable Class ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans of such Class and participations in LC Disbursements; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this Section 2.16(c) shall not apply to (A) any payment made by any Loan Party pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (for the avoidance of doubt, as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time), including any payment made or deemed made in connection with Sections 1.08, 2.06(b), 2.16(b), 2.17(b), 2.18, 2.19, 2.20, 2.21, 9.02(c) and/or 9.05, or (B) any payment obtained by any Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or any of its participations in LC Disbursements to any permitted assignee or participant. The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise rights of set-off and counterclaim against the Borrower with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. The Administrative Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased under this Section 2.16(c) and will, in each case, notify the Lenders following any such purchases or repayments. Each Lender that purchases a participation pursuant to this Section 2.16(c) shall, from and after the date of 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 Obligations purchased to the same extent as though the purchasing Lender were the original owner of the Obligations purchased. For purposes of clause (c) of the definition of “Excluded Taxes”, any Lender that acquires a participation pursuant to this Section 2.16(c) shall be treated as having acquired such participation on the earlier date(s) on which such Lender acquired the applicable interest(s) in the Commitment(s) and/or Loan(s) to which such participation relates.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Lender or any Issuing Bank hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the applicable Lender or Issuing Bank the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then the applicable Lender or Issuing Bank severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent at the NYFRB Rate.

106

SECTION 2.17. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) If (i) any Lender or Issuing Bank requests compensation under Section 2.14, (ii) any Lender gives notice pursuant to Section 2.18 or (iii) the Borrower or any other Loan Party is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or Issuing Bank or to any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender or Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.15, then such Lender or Issuing Bank shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending or issuing office for funding, booking or issuing its Loans or Letters of Credit hereunder or its participation in any Letter of Credit affected by such event, or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender or Issuing Bank, such designation or assignment (A) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.14 or 2.15, as applicable, in the future or mitigate the impact of Section 2.18, as the case may be, and (B) would not subject such Lender or Issuing Bank to any unreimbursed out-of-pocket cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender or Issuing Bank in any material respect.

(b) If (i) any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, (ii) any Lender gives notice pursuant to Section 2.18, (iii) the Borrower or any other Loan Party is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or to any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15, (iv) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (v) in connection with any Extension/ Modification Offer with respect to any Class, any Lender is a Non-Extending/Modifying Lender, (vi) any Lender (or any Participant in respect of any Lender) is a Disqualified Institution (solely for this purpose, whether or not it was such at the time it acquired any Commitment or Loan (or any participation therein) subject to the assignment and delegation pursuant to this paragraph (b)) or (vii) in connection with any proposed amendment, waiver, consent or other modification requiring the consent of “each Lender”, “each Revolving Lender” or “each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby” (or any other Class or group of Lenders other than the Required Lenders) with respect to which the consent of the Required Lenders or the Required Revolving Lenders (or the consent of Lenders holding Loans or Commitments of such Class or lesser group representing more than 50% of the sum of the total Outstanding Amount of Loans and unused Commitments of such Class or lesser group at such time) has been obtained, as applicable, any Lender does not provide its consent thereto, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, (A) terminate all the Commitments of such Lender and repay (or cause to be repaid) all the outstanding Loans of such Lender and, if applicable, funded participations in LC Disbursements, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it under any Loan Document (or terminate the Commitment of such Lender of the applicable Class or Classes and repay (or cause to be paid or repaid) all the outstanding Loans of such Lender of the applicable Class or Classes and, if applicable, funded participations in LC Disbursements, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it under any Loan Document to the extent the foregoing amounts relate to its interest as a Lender of the applicable Class or Classes), in each case, without any obligation to terminate any Commitment or pay or prepay (or cause to be paid or prepaid) any Loan or any other amount of any other Lender, provided that if, after giving effect such termination and repayment, (x) the amount of any Revolving Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure attributable to the Revolving Credit Commitments of any Class exceeds such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment of such Class then in effect or (y) the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Exposure of any Class exceeds the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments of such Class then in effect, then the Borrower shall, not later than the next Business Day, prepay one or more Revolving Borrowings of the applicable Class (and, if no Revolving Borrowings of such Class are outstanding, the Borrower shall deposit (or cause to be deposited) Cash collateral in the LC Collateral Account) in an amount necessary to eliminate such excess, or (B) replace such Lender by requiring such Lender to assign and delegate (and such Lender shall be obligated to assign and delegate), without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.05), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement (or all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement as a Lender of the applicable Class or Classes), other than its existing

107

rights to payment pursuant to Section 2.14 or 2.15, to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which Eligible Assignee may be another Lender, if any Lender accepts such assignment and delegation); provided that (1) such Lender has received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of its Loans and, if applicable, funded participations in LC Disbursements, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it under any Loan Document (if applicable, in each case, only to the extent the foregoing amounts relate to its interest as a Lender of the applicable Class or Classes), (2) in the case of any assignment and delegation resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.14 or payment required to be made pursuant to Section 2.15, such assignment and delegation would result in a reduction in such compensation or payment and (3) such assignment and delegation does not conflict with applicable law. No Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender or a Disqualified Institution) shall be required to make any such assignment and delegation, and the Borrower may not repay (or cause to be repaid) the Obligations of such Lender or terminate its Commitments, in each case, if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. Each Lender agrees that if it is required to assign and delegate any of its rights or obligations pursuant to this Section 2.17(b) or Section 9.05(e)(ii), it shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment Agreement to evidence such assignment and delegation and shall deliver to the Administrative Agent any Promissory Note (if the assigning Lender’s Loans are evidenced by one or more Promissory Notes) subject to such Assignment Agreement (provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 9.05, the failure of such Lender to execute an Assignment Agreement or deliver any such Promissory Note shall not render such assignment and delegation (and the corresponding sale and purchase) invalid), and any such assignment and delegation shall be recorded in the Register and any such Promissory Note shall be deemed cancelled. Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent (such appointment being coupled with an interest) as such Lender’s attorney-in- fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Lender and in the name of such Lender, from time to time in the Administrative Agent’s discretion, with prior written notice to such Lender, to take any action and to execute any such Assignment Agreement or other instrument that the Administrative Agent may deem reasonably necessary to carry out the provisions of this Section 2.17(b) or Section 9.05(e)(ii).

SECTION 2.18. Illegality. If any Lender reasonably determines that any Change in Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted after the Closing Date that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its applicable lending office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to the Term SOFR, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Term SOFR, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, (a) any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Term SOFR Loans or to convert ABR Loans to Term SOFR Loans shall be suspended and (b) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining ABR Loans the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Term SOFR component of the Alternate Base Rate, the interest rate on such ABR Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Term SOFR component of the Alternate Base Rate, in each case, until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist (which notice such Lender agrees to give promptly). Upon receipt of such notice, (i) the Borrower shall, upon demand from the relevant Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), in the case of Term SOFR Loans, prepay or convert, as elected by the Borrower, all of such Lender’s Term SOFR Loans to ABR Loans (the interest rate on which ABR Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Term SOFR component of the Alternate Base Rate), in each case, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Term SOFR Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Term SOFR Loans and (ii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon Term SOFR, the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Alternate Base Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to the Term SOFR component thereof

108

until the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon Term SOFR (which notice such Lender agrees to give promptly). Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted. Each Lender agrees to designate a different lending office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the determination of such Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender.

SECTION 2.19. 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:

(a) commitment fee shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of any Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.11(a);

(b) the Commitments, Term Loans and Revolving Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether all Lenders, each directly and adversely affected Lender, the Required Lenders, the Required Revolving Lenders or such other number or percentage of Lenders as may be required hereby or under any other Loan Document have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 9.02); provided that, to the extent provided in Section 9.02, this clause (b) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby;

(c) any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article 7 or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 9.09 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent and, where relevant, the Borrower as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Issuing Bank hereunder; third, to cash collateralize the Issuing Banks’ LC Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender; fourth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, as the Borrower may request, to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) cash collateralize the Issuing Banks’ future LC Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement; sixth, to the payment of any amount owing to the non-Defaulting Lenders or the Issuing Banks as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any non-Defaulting Lender or the Issuing Banks against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, to the payment of any amount owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Revolving Loans or LC Disbursements in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Revolving Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Revolving Loans of and LC Disbursements owed to all Non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Revolving Loans of or LC Disbursements owed to such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Revolving Loans are held by the Revolving Lenders

109

in accordance with their Applicable Percentages of the applicable Class and funded and unfunded participations are held in accordance with their Applicable Revolving Credit Percentages, in each case, without giving effect to Section 2.19(d); it being agreed that any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this Section 2.19(c) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto;

(d) if any LC Exposure exists at the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

(i) the LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender (other than any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements with respect to which such Defaulting Lender shall have funded its participation as contemplated by Sections 2.05(d) and 2.05(e)) shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Revolving Credit Percentages but only to the extent that (A) the sum of the Revolving Credit Exposures of all Non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders attributable to the Revolving Credit Commitments of any Class does not exceed the total of the Revolving Credit Commitments of all Non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders of such Class and (B) the Revolving Credit Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Revolving Lender that is attributable to its Revolving Credit Commitment of any Class does not exceed such Non-Defaulting Revolving Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment of such Class;

(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, within two Business Days following notice by the Administrative Agent or the relevant Issuing Bank, the Borrower shall cash collateralize (or cause to be cash collateralized) for the benefit of the relevant Issuing Banks only the Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure (other than any portion thereof referred to in the second parenthetical in clause (i) above) that has not been reallocated in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.05(j) for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding;

(iii) if any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall not be required to pay any participation fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.11(b) with respect to such portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized;

(iv) if the LC Exposure of any Defaulting Lender is reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the Revolving Lenders pursuant to Sections 2.11(a) and 2.11(b) shall be adjusted to give effect to such reallocation; and

(v) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure that is subject to reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above is neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any Issuing Bank or any other Lender hereunder, all participation fees payable under Section 2.11(b) with respect to such portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable to the Issuing Banks (and allocated among them ratably based on the amount of such portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued by each Issuing Bank) until and to the extent that such LC Exposure is reallocated and/or cash collateralized; and

(e) so long as such Lender (if a Revolving Lender) is a Defaulting Lender, no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that the related exposure and such Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding LC Exposure will be 100% covered by the Revolving Credit

110

Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders and/or that the related exposure has been cash collateralized in accordance with Section 2.19(d) to its satisfaction, and participating interests in any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among the Non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.19(d)(i) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein).

In the event that each of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and, in the case of a Defaulting Lender that is a Revolving Lender, the Issuing Banks agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then any such Defaulting Lender shall cease to be such and, if such Defaulting Lender is a Revolving Lender, the Applicable Revolving Credit Percentages of the LC Exposure of the Revolving Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment, and on such date such Revolving Lender shall purchase at par such of the Revolving Loans of the applicable Class and such of the funded participations in LC Disbursements of the other Revolving Lenders as the Administrative Agent determines is necessary in order for such Revolving Lender to hold such Revolving Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage of the applicable Class and such participations in accordance with its Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage. Notwithstanding the fact that any Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, (i) no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender (and such Lender shall not be entitled to receive any fees that were not paid to it during the period it was a Defaulting Lender in accordance with the foregoing provisions), (ii) all waivers, amendments and modifications effected without its consent in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.19 and Section 9.02 during the period it was a Defaulting Lender shall be binding on it and (iii) except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

SECTION 2.20. Incremental Credit Extensions.

(a) The Borrower may, at any time, on one or more occasions pursuant to an Incremental Facility Amendment (i) add one or more new Classes of term facilities (which may take the form of delayed draw term facilities) (each, an “Incremental Term Facility” and the loans thereunder, “Incremental Term Loans”), (ii) add one or more new Classes of incremental revolving facilities (each, an “Incremental Revolving Facility” and the loans thereunder, “Incremental Revolving Loans”) and/or (iii) increase the aggregate amount of the Term Loans or Term Commitment of any existing Class and/or increase the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments of any existing Class (any such increase, an “Incremental Increase” and, together with any Incremental Term Facility and any Incremental Revolving Facility, collectively, the “Incremental Facilities”; and the loans thereunder, together with any Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Revolving Loans, collectively, “Incremental Loans”); provided that (x) the aggregate amount of all Incremental Facilities established at any time shall not exceed the Incremental Cap as of such time and (y) the aggregate amount of Incremental Revolving Facilities and Incremental Increases with respect to Revolving Credit Commitments established during the term of this Agreement shall not exceed $10,000,000; provided further that:

(i) no Incremental Term Facility may be in an aggregate principal amount that is less than $1,000,000 (or such lesser amount as shall be the remaining amount of the Incremental Cap);

(ii) except as the Borrower and such Lender may separately agree, no Lender shall be obligated to provide any Incremental Facility, and the determination to provide any Incremental Facility shall be within the sole and absolute discretion of such Lender (it being agreed that the Borrower shall not be obligated to offer the opportunity to any Lender to provide any Incremental Facility);

111

(iii) no Incremental Facility or Incremental Loan (nor the creation, provision or implementation thereof) shall require the approval of any existing Lender, other than in its capacity, if any, as an Incremental Lender providing all or part of such Incremental Facility or Incremental Loan;

(iv) in the case of an Incremental Increase, the terms of such Incremental Increase (other than to the extent not affecting fungibility for Tax purposes, original issue discount and upfront fees and scheduled amortization) shall be the same as the terms of the applicable Class of Term Loans, Term Commitments or Revolving Credit Commitments subject to such Incremental Increase;

(v) the pricing, interest rate margins, funding discounts, fees, premiums, rate floors and other components of yield (and any “MFN” terms) applicable to any Incremental Facility shall be determined by the Borrower and the Incremental Lenders providing such Incremental Facility; provided that, in the case of any Incremental Term Loans the Effective Yield (determined on the date of the incurrence of such Incremental Term Loans) applicable to such Incremental Term Loans may not be more than 0.50% higher than the Effective Yield (determined on such date but prior to any adjustment thereto pursuant to this clause (v)) applicable to the Initial Term Loans or the First Amendment Term Loans that will remain outstanding after giving effect to the incurrence of such Incremental Term Loans and the application of the proceeds thereof unless the Effective Yield (and/or, as provided in the proviso below, the Alternate Base Rate floor or Term SOFR floor) with respect to such Initial Term Loans and/or First Amendment Term Loans, as applicable, is adjusted (in such manner as shall be determined by the Borrower in its sole discretion, including through the payment of fees to the Initial Term Lenders and/or the First Amendment Term Lenders) to be equal to the Effective Yield with respect to such Incremental Term Loans minus 0.50%; provided further that any required increase in Effective Yield applicable to the Initial Term Loans or First Amendment Term Loans due to the application or imposition of any “Term SOFR” interest rate floor on such Incremental Term Loans may, at the election of the Borrower, be effected through an increase in the Term SOFR floor (and the corresponding adjustment to the Alternate Base Rate floor) applicable to the Initial Term Loans and/or First Amendment Term Loans, as applicable;

(vi) (A) if any Initial Term Loans or First Amendment Term Loans will remain outstanding after giving effect to the incurrence of such Incremental Term Loans and the application of the proceeds thereof, then the Maturity Date with respect to any Incremental Term Loans shall be no earlier than the Initial Term Loan Maturity Date; and (B) if the Initial Revolving Credit Commitments will remain in effect after giving effect to the establishment of any Incremental Revolving Facility, then such Incremental Revolving Facility may not have a Maturity Date earlier than (or require scheduled mandatory commitment reductions prior to) the Initial Revolving Credit Maturity Date;

(vii) if any Initial Term Loans or First Amendment Term Loans will remain outstanding after giving effect to the incurrence of such Incremental Term Loans and the application of the proceeds thereof, then the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Incremental Term Loans shall be no shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Initial Term Loans outstanding (and the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the First Amendment Term Loans outstanding (in each case, determined after giving effect to any repayment or prepayment of Loans on such date) on the date of incurrence of such Incremental Term Loans;

(viii) (A) any Incremental Facility shall be pari passu in right of payment and with respect to security with any then-existing Class of Loans, (B) no Incremental Facility may be (x) guaranteed by any Person that is not a Loan Party or (y) secured by any assets other than the

112

Collateral and (C) each Incremental Facility should be documented under this Agreement and the applicable Incremental Facility Amendment;

(ix) any Incremental Term Loans may participate in any existing mandatory prepayment under Section 2.10(b) on a pro rata basis (or on a less than pro rata basis, but, except with respect to any mandatory prepayment referred to in the first parenthetical clause in Section 2.10(b)(iii), not on a greater than pro rata basis) with any then-existing Class of Term Loans;

(x) the proceeds of any Incremental Facility may be used for working capital needs and other general corporate purposes, including for capital expenditures, acquisitions, Investments, Restricted Payments and any other purposes not prohibited by the terms of the Loan Documents;

(xi) on the date of the borrowing of any Incremental Loans that will be of the same Class as any then-existing Class of Term Loans (or on the date of the release from escrow of the proceeds of any Incremental Loans that, upon the release of such proceeds, will be of the same Class as any then-existing Class of Term Loans), and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 2.07 or 2.12, such Incremental Loans shall be added to (and constitute a part of, be of the same Type as and, if applicable, have the same Interest Period as) each Borrowing of outstanding Term Loans of such Class on a pro rata basis (based on the relative sizes of such Borrowings), so that each Incremental Lender providing such Incremental Loans will participate proportionately in each then-outstanding Borrowing of Term Loans of such Class; it being acknowledged that the application of this clause (a)(xi) may result in such Incremental Loans having Interest Periods (the duration of which may be less than one month) that begin during an Interest Period then applicable to outstanding Term SOFR Loans of the relevant Class and which end on the last day of such Interest Period;

(xii) subject to the foregoing terms of this Section 2.20(a), any Incremental Term Facility or Incremental Revolving Facility shall be on terms and pursuant to documentation to be determined by the Borrower and the Incremental Lenders providing such Incremental Term Facility or Incremental Revolving Facility; provided that except with respect to the currency, pricing, fees, premiums, rate floors and other components of yield (and any “MFN” terms), final maturity or commitment termination, amortization, escrow provisions, prepayments (including restrictions on prepayments) and except as otherwise permitted herein, the terms of any Incremental Term Facility or Incremental Revolving Facility, if not substantially consistent with the terms of any Class of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, outstanding or in effect (determined after giving effect to any repayment or prepayment of Loans and termination of Commitments on such date) on the date of the effectiveness of such Incremental Term Facility or Incremental Revolving Facility, as applicable, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Required Lenders (it being agreed that any terms contained in such Incremental Facility that are (A) applicable only after the then-existing Latest Term Loan Maturity Date or Latest Revolving Credit Maturity Date, as applicable, and/or (B) more favorable to the Incremental Lenders of such Incremental Facility than those applicable to any then-existing Class of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, and are then conformed (or added) to the Loan Documents for the benefit of the Lenders under each such then-existing Class of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, pursuant to the applicable Incremental Facility Amendment, shall be deemed satisfactory to the Required Lenders); and

(xiii) subject to Section 1.09, (A) no Event of Default shall exist on the date any Incremental Facility is established and (B) the representations and warranties of the Loan Parties set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material

113

respects (and in all respects if any such representation or warranty is already qualified by materiality) on the date any Incremental Facility is established, provided that to the extent that any representation and warranty expressly relates to an earlier date, it shall be true and correct in all material respects (and in all respects if any such representation or warranty is already qualified by materiality) as of such earlier date.

(b) Incremental Facilities may be provided by any existing Lender or by any other Eligible Assignee (each, an “Incremental Lender”); provided that, in the case of any Incremental Revolving Facility and any Incremental Increase with respect to any Revolving Credit Commitments, the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank shall have a right to consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) to the relevant Incremental Lender’s provision of such Incremental Revolving Facility or Incremental Increase solely if such consent would be required under Section 9.05(b) for an assignment of Loans of the applicable Class to such Incremental Lender; provided further that any Incremental Lender that is an Affiliated Lender shall be subject to the provisions of Section 9.05(f), mutatis mutandis, to the same extent as if the relevant Incremental Commitments and related Obligations have been acquired by such Incremental Lender by way of assignment.

(c) On the effective date of any Incremental Facility, each Incremental Lender that is not then a Lender shall become a Lender for all purposes in connection with this Agreement.

(d) As conditions precedent either to the effectiveness of any Incremental Facility or to the making of any Incremental Loans (as set forth in the applicable Incremental Facility Amendment), (i) the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to receive such customary reaffirmation agreements and customary supplements and/or amendments to the Collateral Documents and/or the Guaranty Agreement as it shall reasonably request (based on instructions from the Required Lenders), (ii) the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to receive, from each Incremental Lender that is not then a Lender, an Administrative Questionnaire and such other documents as it shall reasonably request from such Incremental Lender and (iii) in the case of the making of any Incremental Loans under an Incremental Term Facility or an Incremental Increase with respect to any existing Class of Term Loans, the Administrative Agent shall have received a Borrowing Request (it being understood that such Borrowing Request shall not be required to contain any representation, warranty or certification).

(e) Upon the effectiveness of an Incremental Increase with respect to any Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.20, (i) each Revolving Lender immediately prior to such Incremental Increase will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assigned to each relevant Incremental Lender, and each relevant Incremental Lender will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assumed, a portion of such Revolving Lender’s participations hereunder in outstanding Letters of Credit, such that, after giving effect to each deemed assignment and assumption of participations, all of the Revolving Lenders’ (including each such Incremental Lender) participations hereunder in Letters of Credit shall be held pro rata on the basis of their respective Applicable Revolving Credit Percentages (determined after giving effect to such Incremental Increase) and (ii) the existing Revolving Lenders of the applicable Class shall assign Revolving Loans to certain other Revolving Lenders of such Class (including the Revolving Lenders providing the relevant Incremental Increase), and such other Revolving Lenders (including the Revolving Lenders providing the relevant Incremental Increase) shall purchase such Revolving Loans, in each case, to the extent necessary so that all of the Revolving Lenders of such Class participate in each outstanding Borrowing of Revolving Loans pro rata on the basis of their respective Applicable Percentages of such Class (after giving effect to any such Incremental Increase); it being understood and agreed 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 this paragraph (e).

114

(f) The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into any Incremental Facility Amendment and/or any amendment to this Agreement or any other Loan Document as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to give effect to the provisions of this Section 2.20, including any amendments necessary to establish new Classes of Loans and Commitments hereunder (including for purposes of prepayments and voting) or to reflect an increase in any existing Class of Loans and Commitments and any technical amendments relating thereto, in each case, on terms consistent with this Section 2.20. The Administrative Agent agrees that its consent to any amendment to this Agreement or any other Loan Document as contemplated above, or to the form and substance of any Incremental Facility Amendment, will not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including, without limitation, in the definition of “Required Lenders”, other than with respect to amendments and waivers to any conditions precedent in respect of any applicable incremental delayed draw term loan commitments, prior to the time that any such incremental delayed draw term loan commitments are funded, any such incremental delayed draw term loan commitments that have not yet funded shall not be included in the determination of Required Lenders.

(h) This Section 2.20 shall supersede any provision in Section 2.16 to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, there shall only be one Revolving Facility outstanding at any time.

SECTION 2.21. Extensions and Modifications.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, pursuant to one or more offers (each, an “Extension/Modification Offer”) made from time to time by the Borrower to all Lenders holding Loans or Commitments of any Class, in each case on a pro rata basis (based on the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans or Commitments of such Class) and on the terms offered on the same basis to each such Lender, the Borrower is hereby permitted to consummate transactions with any individual Lender that accepts the terms contained in the relevant Extension/ Modification Offer (any Lender that does not accept the terms contained in any such Extension/ Modification Offer, a “Non-Extending/Modifying Lender”) to extend the Maturity Date of all or a portion of such Lender’s Loans and/or Commitments of such Class and/or otherwise to modify the terms of all or a portion of such Lender’s Loans and/or Commitments of such Class pursuant to the terms of the relevant Extension/Modification Offer (including by increasing or decreasing the interest rate or fees payable in respect of such Loans and/or Commitments (and related outstandings) and/or modifying the amortization schedule, if any, in respect of such Loans) (each, an “Extension/Modification”); it being understood that any Extended/Modified Term Loans shall constitute a separate Class of Loans from the Class of Loans from which they were converted and any Extended/Modified Revolving Credit Commitments shall constitute a separate Class of Revolving Credit Commitments from the Class of Revolving Credit Commitments from which they were converted; provided that the following terms are satisfied:

(i) except as to (A) pricing, interest rate, margins, funding discounts, fees, premiums, rate floors and other components of yield (and any “MFN” terms), scheduled final maturity, commitment reductions, required prepayments and participation in prepayments (which shall, subject to clause (iii) below, be determined by the Borrower and any Lender that agrees to an Extension/Modification of its Revolving Credit Commitments and set forth in the relevant Extension/Modification Amendment), (B) terms applicable to such Extended/Modified Revolving Credit Commitments or Extended/Modified Revolving Loans (each as defined below) that are more favorable to the Lenders holding such Extended/Modified Revolving Credit Commitments or

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement (including Article 7), with respect to an Event of Default as a result of the Borrower’s failure to comply with Section 6.13(a) on the last day of any Test Period, the Borrower shall have the right (the “Cure Right”) (at any time after the last day of such Test Period (or, solely to the extent designated in writing to the Administrative Agent as an exercise of the Cure Right at the time, during the last Fiscal Quarter of such Test Period or thereafter) until the date that is 15 Business Days after the date on which financial statements for such Fiscal Quarter (or the Fiscal Year ending with such Fiscal Quarter) are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(a) or 5.01(b), as applicable) to issue Qualified Capital Stock or other Capital Stock (such other Capital Stock to be on terms reasonably acceptable to the Required Lenders) for Cash or otherwise receive Cash contributions in respect of its Qualified Capital Stock or such other Capital Stock, in each case, which are designated by the Borrower as proceeds which shall be used to increase Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA pursuant to the exercise of a Cure Right (the “Cure Amount”), and thereupon the Borrower’s compliance with Section 6.13(a) shall be recalculated giving effect to a pro forma increase in the amount of Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA by an amount equal to the Cure Amount (notwithstanding the absence of a related addback in the definition of “Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA”) solely for the purpose of determining compliance with Section 6.13(a) as of the end of such Fiscal Quarter and for applicable subsequent Test Periods that include such Fiscal Quarter. If, after giving effect to the foregoing recalculation (but not, for the avoidance of doubt, taking into account any immediate repayment of Indebtedness in connection therewith), the requirements of Section 6.13(a) would be satisfied, then the requirements of Section 6.13(a) shall be deemed satisfied as of the end of the relevant Test Period with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply therewith at such date, and the applicable breach or default of Section 6.13(a) that had occurred (or would have occurred) shall be deemed cured for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

163

intends to exercise the Cure Right (a “Notice of Intent to Cure”) until the 15th Business Day following the date on which financial statements for the applicable Fiscal Quarter (or the Fiscal Year ending with such Fiscal Quarter) to which such Notice of Intent to Cure relates are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(a) or 5.01(b), as applicable, neither the Administrative Agent (nor any sub-agent therefor) nor any Lender shall exercise any right to accelerate the Loans or terminate the Commitments, and none of the Administrative Agent (nor any sub-agent therefor), any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any other Secured Party shall exercise any right to foreclose on, realize, or take possession of any Collateral or any other right or remedy under the Loan Documents solely on the basis of such Event of Default under Section 6.13(a), (v) there shall be no pro forma or other reduction of the amount of Indebtedness by the amount of any Cure Amount (whether by “netting” or otherwise) for purposes of determining compliance with Section 6.13(a) as of the last day of the Test Period in respect of which the Cure Right was exercised (it being understood that this clause (v) shall not apply with respect to any subsequent Test Period, even if such subsequent Test Period includes the applicable Fiscal Quarter), (vi) during any Test Period in which any Cure Amount is included in the calculation of Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA as a result of any exercise of the Cure Right, such Cure Amount shall be disregarded for any other purpose (except as provided in clause (v) above), including for purposes of determining (A) whether any financial ratiobased provisions, including any financial ratio-based test, condition or exception based on Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, to the availability of any carve-out set forth in Article 6 has been satisfied, (B) the Available Amount, (C) the Applicable Rate or (D) the Excess Cash Flow or the Required Excess Cash Flow Percentage and (vii) if a failure to comply with Section 6.13(a) has occurred and is continuing, no Lender or Issuing Bank shall be required to make any Revolving Credit Extension unless and until the Cure Amount is actually received.

(b) Holdings, the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries shall not create, incur, assume or permit or suffer to exist any Lien securing any Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness created under the Loan Documents) on any Capital Stock in the Borrower or any Captive Insurance Subsidiary.

ARTICLE 8

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks hereby irrevocably appoints Acquiom (or any successor appointed pursuant hereto) as Administrative Agent and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf, including execution of the other Loan Documents, and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

Any Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender or an Issuing Bank as any other Lender or Issuing Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the terms “Lender”, “Lenders”, “Issuing Bank” and “Issuing Banks” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless such Person is in fact not a Lender or an Issuing Bank, include each Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with any Loan Party or any subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder. The Lenders and the Issuing Banks acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, the Administrative Agent or its Affiliates may receive information regarding any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Loan Party or such Affiliate) and acknowledge that the Administrative Agent shall not be under any obligation to provide such information to them.

The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default exists, and the use of the term “agent” herein and in the other Loan Documents with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law; it being understood that 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, (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary power (including, without limitation, consenting to the extension of any deadlines herein), except discretionary rights and powers that are expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents and which the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing as directed by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent believes in good faith shall be necessary, under the relevant circumstances as provided in Section 9.02); provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to Holdings, the Borrower or any of their subsidiaries or other Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable to the Lenders or any other Secured Party for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent believes in good faith shall be necessary, under the relevant circumstances as provided in Section 9.02) or in the absence of 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. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not have any Liability, on any theory of liability, to the Lenders or any other Secured Party for, or be responsible for any loss, cost or expense

168

suffered by any Lender or any other Secured Party as a result of, any determination of the Effective Yield or the terms and conditions of any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until written notice thereof (stating that it is a “notice of default”) is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or any Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or in connection with any Loan Document, (iii) the performance or observance of any covenant, agreement or other term or condition set forth in any Loan Document on the part of any other Person or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, (iv) the sufficiency, validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, (v) the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien on the Collateral or the existence, value or sufficiency of the Collateral or to assure that the Liens granted to the Administrative Agent pursuant to any Loan Document have been or will continue to be properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article 4 or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent or to be satisfactory to the Administrative Agent or (vii) any property, book or record of any Loan Party or any Affiliate thereof.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any of the other Loan Documents, Holdings, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Secured Party agree that (a) no Secured Party (other than the Administrative Agent (or its sub-agents)) shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce any Loan Guaranty, it being understood and agreed that any right to realize upon the Collateral or enforce any Loan Guaranty against any Loan Party pursuant hereto or pursuant to any other Loan Document may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent (or its sub-agents) on behalf of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof, and (b) in the event of a foreclosure or realization by the Administrative Agent (or its sub-agents) on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or in the event of any other Disposition (including pursuant to Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision of any other applicable Debtor Relief Law), (i) the Administrative Agent, as agent for and representative of the Secured Parties, shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such sale or other Disposition, to use and apply all or any portion of the Secured Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral payable by the Administrative Agent at such sale or other Disposition; and (ii) the Administrative Agent or any Lender may be the purchaser or licensor of all or any portion of such Collateral at any such sale or other Disposition. Each Secured Party agrees that the Administrative Agent may in its sole discretion, but is under no obligation to, credit bid any part of the Secured Obligations or to purchase or retain or acquire any portion of the Collateral.

No holder of any Secured Hedging Obligation or Banking Services Obligation, in each case, in its capacity as such shall have any rights in connection with the management or release of any Collateral or of the obligations of any Loan Party under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding with respect to any Loan Party, each Secured Party agrees that the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or LC Disbursement is then due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent has made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans or LC Disbursements and all other Obligations that are owing

169

and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts to the extent due to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.11 and 9.03) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

(ii) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same.

Any custodian, receiver, receiver and manager, assignee, trustee, monitor, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Secured Party to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent consents to the making of such payments directly to any Secured Party, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amount due to the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.11 and 9.03.

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

The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) that it believes to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not have any liability arising from, or be responsible for any loss, cost or expense suffered on account of, (a) any confirmation of the Revolving Credit Exposure or the component amounts thereof or (b) any determination that any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, or the effective date of such status, it being further understood and agreed that the Administrative Agent shall not have any obligation to determine whether any Lender is a Defaulting Lender. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance, amendment, extension or increase of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the applicable Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or such Issuing Bank unless the Administrative Agent has received notice to the contrary from such Lender or such Issuing Bank prior to the making of such Loan or such issuance, amendment, extension or increase of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for Holdings or the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by it. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of their respective duties and exercise their respective rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article 8 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent and shall

170

apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as the Administrative Agent.

The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving 10 days’ prior written notice to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Borrower. If the Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender or an Affiliate of a Defaulting Lender, either the Required Lenders or the Borrower may, upon 10 days’ prior written notice, remove the Administrative Agent. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation or delivery of any such notice of removal, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a commercial bank or trust company with offices in the U.S. having combined capital and surplus in excess of $1,000,000,000; provided that during the existence and continuation of an Event of Default under Section 7.01(a), 7.01(f) or 7.01(g), no consent of the Borrower shall be required. If no successor has been appointed as provided above and accepted such appointment prior to the effectiveness of the resignation or removal of the Administrative Agent as provided above, then (a) in the case of a retirement, the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the consent of the Borrower, if applicable) or (b) in the case of a removal, the Borrower may, after consulting with the Required Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that (x) in the case of a retirement, if the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment or (y) in the case of a removal, the Borrower notifies the Required Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then, in each case, such resignation or removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with the provisos to the first two sentences in this paragraph and (i) the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any Collateral security held by the Administrative Agent in its capacity as collateral agent for the Secured Parties for purposes of maintaining the perfection of the Lien on the Collateral securing the Secured Obligations, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such Collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed), (ii) all payments, communications and determinations required to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and each Issuing Bank directly (and each Lender and each Issuing Bank will cooperate with the Borrower to enable the Borrower to take such actions), until such time as the Required Lenders or the Borrower, as applicable, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, as provided above in this Article 8 and (iii) the Required Lenders shall thereafter perform all the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder and/or under any Loan Document until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders (subject, solely to the extent required above with respect to the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent, to any required consent of the Borrower) appoint a successor Administrative Agent. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder as a successor Administrative Agent, the successor Administrative Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Administrative Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments owed to the retiring Administrative Agent), and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder (other than its obligations under Section 9.13). The fees payable by the Borrower to any successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor Administrative Agent. After the Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder, the provisions of this Article 8 and Section 9.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the relevant Person was acting as Administrative Agent (including for this purpose holding any Collateral security following the retirement or removal of the Administrative Agent). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Disqualified Institution (nor any Affiliate thereof) may be appointed as a successor Administrative Agent unless an Event of Default under Section 7.01(a), 7.01(f) or 7.01(g) has occurred and is continuing.

171

Each Lender and each Issuing Bank acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank represents and warrants that (a) the Loan Documents set forth the terms of a commercial lending facility, (b) in participating as a Lender or an Issuing Bank, it is engaged in making, acquiring or holding commercial loans and in providing other facilities set forth herein as may be applicable to such Lender or Issuing Bank, in each case in the ordinary course of business, and not for the purpose of investing in the general performance or operations of the Borrower and its subsidiaries, or for the purpose of purchasing, acquiring or holding any other type of financial instrument such as a security (and each Lender and each Issuing Bank agrees not to assert a claim in contravention of the foregoing, such as a claim under the federal or state securities law) and (c) it is sophisticated with respect to decisions to make, acquire and/or hold commercial loans and to provide other facilities set forth herein, as may be applicable to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, and either it, or the Person exercising discretion in making its decision to make, acquire and/or hold such commercial loans or to provide such other facilities, is experienced in making, acquiring or holding such commercial loans or providing such other facilities. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their respective Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders and the Issuing Banks by the Administrative Agent herein, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender or any Issuing Bank with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any of the Loan Parties or any of their respective Affiliates which may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties.

Each Lender, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement and funding its Loans on the Closing Date, or delivering its signature page to an Assignment and Assumption or any other Loan Document pursuant to which it shall become a Lender hereunder, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Loan Document and each other document required to be delivered to, or be approved by or satisfactory to, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders on the Closing Date.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Arrangers shall not have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement, except in its capacities as the Administrative Agent, an Issuing Bank or a Lender hereunder, as applicable.

Each Secured Party irrevocably authorizes and instructs the Administrative Agent to:

(a) (i) release (or confirm an automatic release of) any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document as provided in Section 9.21 and (ii) release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document in connection with enforcement of any rights or remedies in respect thereof under the Loan Documents;

(b) release (or confirm an automatic release of) any Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty Agreement and the other Loan Documents as provided in Section 9.21;

(c) subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is described in Sections 6.02(m), 6.02(n), 6.02(y) or 6.02(aa); provided that, in each case, the subordination of any Lien on any

172

property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent shall only be required to the extent that the Lien of the Administrative Agent with respect to such property is required to be subordinated to the relevant Lien in accordance with the documentation governing the Indebtedness or obligations that is secured by such Lien; and

(d) enter into any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement (or any amendment, restatement, supplement or other modification thereto permitted by Section 9.20) in respect of any Indebtedness, Banking Services Obligations or Hedging Obligations that, pursuant to the terms hereof, (i) is required or permitted to be subordinated in right of payment and/or (ii) is secured by Liens, and with respect to which, this Agreement contemplates an intercreditor, subordination or similar agreement or arrangement.

Upon the request of the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release (or to confirm an automatic release of) or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release (or to confirm an automatic release of) any Loan Party from its obligations under the Guaranty Agreement or its Lien on any Collateral pursuant to this Article 8. In each case as specified in this Article 8, the Administrative Agent will (and each Secured Party hereby 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 to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the Lien granted under the Collateral Documents, to subordinate its interest therein, or to release such Loan Party from its obligations under the Guaranty Agreement, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Article 8; provided that upon the request of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall deliver a certificate of a Responsible Officer certifying that the relevant transaction has been consummated in compliance with the terms of this Agreement, and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any such certificate.

To the extent that the Administrative Agent (or any Affiliate and sub-agent thereof) is not reimbursed and indemnified by the Borrower in accordance with and to the extent required by Section 9.03(b), the Lenders severally agree to reimburse and indemnify the Administrative Agent (and any Affiliate and sub-agent thereof) in proportion to their respective pro rata shares for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, costs, expenses or disbursements of whatsoever kind or nature which may be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by the Administrative Agent (or any Affiliate and sub-agent thereof) in performing its duties hereunder or under any other Loan Document or in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Administrative Agent’s (or such Affiliate’s) gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision). For purposes of this Section, a Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based upon its share of the sum of the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposures, unused Revolving Credit Commitments, outstanding Term Loans and unused Term Commitments, in each case, at the time (or most recently outstanding and in effect). In the case of any investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise to any indemnified liabilities, this paragraph 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 upon demand for its pro rata share (determined as set forth above) of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including legal costs) incurred by the Administrative Agent 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 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

173

with respect thereto; provided further that the failure of any Lender to indemnify or reimburse the Administrative Agent shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation in respect thereof. The provisions of this paragraph shall survive termination of the Commitments, the payment of all other Obligations and the resignation of the Administrative Agent.

Each Lender and each Issuing Bank hereby agrees that (x) if the Administrative Agent notifies such Lender or Issuing Bank that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds received by such Lender or Issuing Bank from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates (whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees or otherwise; individually and collectively, a “Payment”) were erroneously transmitted to such Lender or Issuing Bank (whether or not known to such Lender or Issuing Bank), and demands the return of such Payment (or a portion thereof), such Lender or Issuing Bank shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender or Issuing Bank to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the NYFRB Rate, and (y) to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender or Issuing Bank shall not assert, and hereby waives, as to the Administrative Agent, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Payments received, including without limitation any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or Issuing Bank under this paragraph shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

Each Lender and each Issuing Bank hereby further agrees that if it receives a Payment from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such Payment (a “Payment Notice”) or (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a Payment Notice, it shall be on notice, in each such case, that an error has been made with respect to such Payment. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank agrees that, in each such case, or if it otherwise becomes aware a Payment (or portion thereof) may have been sent in error, such Lender or Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such occurrence and, upon demand from the Administrative Agent, it shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the NYFRB Rate.

The Borrower and each other Loan Party hereby agrees that (x) in the event an erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Lender or Issuing Bank that has received such Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights of such Lender or Issuing Bank with respect to such amount and (y) an erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Borrower or any other Loan Party, except, in each case, to the extent such erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower or any other Loan Party.

Each party’s obligations under the three immediately preceding paragraphs shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender or an Issuing Bank, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations under any Loan Document.

174

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

(a) such Lender is not using “plan assets” (within the meaning of Section 3(42) of ERISA or otherwise) of one or more Benefit Plans with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments or this Agreement,

(b) the prohibited transaction exemption set forth in one or more PTEs, such as PTE 84-14 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by independent qualified professional asset managers), PTE 95-60 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company general accounts), PTE 90-1 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company pooled separate accounts), PTE 91-38 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving bank collective investment funds) or PTE 96-23 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by in-house asset managers), is applicable with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement,

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

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

In addition, unless either (1) clause (a) above is true with respect to a Lender or (2) a Lender has provided another representation, warranty and covenant in accordance with clause (d) above, such Lender further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of Holdings, the Borrower or any other Loan Party, that none of the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers or any of their respective Affiliates is a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender involved in the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Loan Document or any documents related hereto or thereto).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any Loan Document, the Administrative Agent shall, promptly upon the written request of Deutsche Bank (which may be via email), deliver or otherwise make available to Deutsche Bank, electronic copies of any written notice, demand, communication, certificate, document, financial statement, report, instrument, or other information actually received by or available to the Administrative Agent under or in connection with this Agreement or information otherwise known or maintained by Administrative Agent in connection with role as administrative agent hereunder (including without limitation, the current Lenders under the Facilities and

175

their outstanding Loans and Commitments) (whether in physical electronic or any other form, and whether received from any Loan Party, any other Lender, or any other Person in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Loan Document). The foregoing obligation applies regardless of whether such information is addressed or directed specifically to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such, to the Lenders generally, or otherwise, and regardless of whether the Administrative Agent is otherwise required under any other provision of the Loan Documents to deliver such information to the Lenders.

SECTION 9.02. Waivers; Amendments.

(a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders hereunder and under any other Loan Document are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any party hereto therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same is permitted by this Section 9.02, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which it is given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the extent permitted by applicable law, neither the making of any Loan nor the issuance of any Letter of Credit shall be construed as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default or Event of Default at the time. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Loan Parties or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Administrative Agent in accordance with Article 7 for the benefit of all the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the other Secured Parties; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (i) the Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (ii) each Issuing Bank from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as an Issuing Bank) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (iii) any Lender or Issuing Bank from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 9.09 (subject to the terms of Section 2.16) or (iv) any Lender or Issuing Bank from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relating to any Loan Party under any Debtor Relief Law; and provided further that if at any time there is no Person acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents,

178

then (A) the Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Article 7 and (B) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (ii) and (iii) of the immediately preceding proviso and subject to Section 2.16, any Lender or Issuing Bank may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required Lenders.

(b) Subject to Sections 9.02(c), 9.02(d) and 9.02(e) and to Section 9.05(f), none of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified, except (i) in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required Lenders (or the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders) or (ii) in the case of any other Loan Document (other than any waiver, amendment or modification to effectuate any modification thereto expressly contemplated by the terms of such other Loan Document), pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent, with the consent of the Required Lenders, and each Loan Party (or the Borrower on its behalf) that is party thereto; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing:

(A) the prior written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby (but not the consent of the Required Lenders) shall be required for any waiver, amendment or modification that:

(1) increases the amount of, or extends the scheduled expiration date of, any Commitment of such Lender, or changes the currency in which any Loans are available thereunder; it being understood that no amendment, modification or waiver of, or consent to departure from, any condition precedent, representation, warranty, covenant, Default, Event of Default, mandatory reduction of Commitments or mandatory prepayment shall constitute an increase or an extension of any Commitment of such Lender;

(2) reduces the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement owed to such Lender or any scheduled amortization payment of any Loan due to such Lender;

(3) (x) extends the scheduled final maturity of any Loan held by such Lender or (y) postpones any scheduled amortization payment of any Loan held by such Lender, or the date of any scheduled payment of any interest on any Loan held by such Lender or of any scheduled payment of any fee due to such Lender hereunder, it being understood that no amendment, modification or waiver of, or consent to departure from, any condition precedent, representation, warranty, covenant, Default, Event of Default, mandatory reduction of Commitments or mandatory prepayment shall constitute any such extension or postponement;

(4) reduces the stated rate of interest on any Loan held by such Lender or the stated amount of any fee or premium owed to such Lender (other than to waive any Default or Event of Default or to waive, amend or modify any obligation of the Borrower to pay interest to such Lender at the default rate of interest under Section 2.12(d) or any obligation under Section 2.11(g), each of which shall not be subject to this clause (4)), it being understood that no change in the definition of “Total Leverage Ratio” or any other ratio (or, in each case, in any component definition thereof) used in the calculation of the Applicable Rate or in the calculation of any other interest, fee or premium due under any Loan Document (and no waiver of any amount required to be paid on the account of any inaccuracy of any such calculation), shall constitute a reduction in any rate of interest or any fee or premium hereunder; or

179

(5) waives, amends or modifies the provisions of Section 2.16(b) or 2.16(c) of this Agreement or any other “waterfall” or pro rata sharing provision of any other Loan Document, in each case, in a manner that would by its terms alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby in a manner adverse to such Lender (except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement);

provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this clause (A), it is understood that any waiver, amendment or modification of Section 2.20 (including clause (a)(v) thereof and the definition of the term “Effective Yield” as used in such Section), or of any other “most favored nation” provision set forth in any Loan Document (and the defined terms relating thereto) may be effected pursuant to any agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required Lenders (or the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders);

(B) no such waiver, modification or amendment shall:

It is understood that any Lender approached to provide all or a portion of any Replacement Term Loans or any Replacement Revolving Facility may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide such Replacement Term Loans or Replacement Revolving Facility. For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, there shall only be one Revolving Facility outstanding at any time.

The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into any Refinancing Amendment and/or any amendment to this Agreement or any other Loan Document as may be necessary, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to give effect to the provisions of this Section 9.02(c), including any amendments necessary to establish new Classes of Loans and Commitments hereunder (including for purposes of prepayments and voting) or to reflect an increase in any existing Class of Loans and Commitments and any technical amendments relating thereto, in each case, on terms consistent with this Section 9.02(c). The Administrative Agent agrees that its consent to any amendment to this Agreement or any other Loan Document as contemplated above, or to the form and substance of any Refinancing Amendment, will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

183

existing Class of Loans) or any other provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (or any Exhibit hereto or thereto) specifying that any waiver, amendment or modification may be made with the consent or approval of the Administrative Agent and/or (B) in connection with any transaction permitted by Section 2.20, 2.21 and/or 9.02(c), to add terms (including representations and warranties, conditions, prepayments, covenants or events of default) that are favorable to the then-existing Lenders, as reasonably determined by the Required Lenders, it being understood that (A) where applicable, any such amendment may be effected as part of the applicable Incremental Facility Amendment, Extension/Modification Amendment or Refinancing Amendment and (B) any Incremental Facility Amendment, Extension/Modification Amendment or Refinancing Amendment also may provide for amendments or other modifications to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in addition to those referred to in Section 2.20, 2.21 or 9.02(c), as the case may be (any such additional amendment or modification, an “Additional Amendment”); provided that no Additional Amendment shall become effective prior to the time that such Additional Amendment shall have been consented to (including pursuant to consents set forth in any Incremental Facility Amendment, Extension/Modification Amendment or Refinancing Amendment) by such of the Lenders and other Persons (if any) as may be required in order for such Additional Amendment to become effective in accordance with this Section 9.02; provided further that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, for purposes of determining whether the consent of the Required Lenders (or such other requisite percentage of Lenders required hereunder) has been obtained in respect of any Additional Amendment, to the extent any Additional Loans and/or Additional Commitments to be made or established pursuant to any Incremental Facility Amendment, Extension/Modification Amendment and/or Refinancing Amendment would be permitted by Section 2.20, 2.21 and/or 9.02(c) without giving effect to such Additional Amendment, then the consent of the Required Lenders (or such other requisite percentage of Lenders required hereunder) to such Additional Amendment shall be determined after giving effect to such Additional Loans and/or Additional Commitments so made or established (and any refinancing of any Loans and/or Commitments to be effected in connection therewith);

(iii) if the Administrative Agent and the Borrower have jointly identified any ambiguity, mistake, defect, inconsistency, obvious error or any error or omission of a technical nature or any necessary or desirable technical change, in each case, in any provision of any Loan Document, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend such provision solely to address such matter as reasonably determined by them acting jointly;

184

(vii) this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (A) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit any extension of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the relevant benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (B) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders and/or Required Revolving Lenders on substantially the same basis as the Lenders prior to such inclusion,

(viii) (A) any amendment, waiver or modification of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that by its terms directly affects Lenders under one or more Classes and does not directly and adversely affect Lenders under one or more other Classes may be effected by an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the requisite number or percentage in interest of each affected Class of Lenders that would be required to consent thereto under Section 9.02(b) if such Class of Lenders were the only Class of Lenders hereunder at the time and (B) any waiver of any condition precedent set forth in Section 4.02 in respect of any Revolving Facility or any waiver of any Default or Event of Default that arises from the inaccuracy of any representation, warranty or certification made or deemed made by any Loan Party in any Loan Document or in any certificate required to be delivered in connection therewith, in each case, in connection with any credit extension under any Revolving Facility may be effected by an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required Revolving Lenders; provided that if the approval set forth in this clause (viii) is obtained, the consent of any other Lender shall not be required;

(xi) any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be amended by an agreement in writing entered into by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent (and, if their consent would be required under clause (C) of Section 9.02(b), the Issuing Banks) and the Lenders that will remain parties hereto after giving effect to such amendment if (A) by the terms of such agreement the Commitments of each Lender not consenting to the amendment provided for therein shall be reduced to zero upon the effectiveness of such amendment and (B) at the time such amendment becomes effective, each Lender not consenting thereto receives payment in full in Cash of the principal of and interest accrued on each Loan made by it (including Cash collateralization with respect to all LC Exposure, if applicable), and all other amounts owing to it or accrued for its account under this Agreement.

(e) The Administrative Agent may, but shall have no obligation to, with the concurrence of any Lender, execute waivers, amendments or modifications of this Agreement or any other Loan Document on behalf of such Lender. Any waiver, amendment or modification effected in accordance with this Section 9.02 shall be binding upon each Person that is at the time thereof a Lender and each Person that subsequently becomes a Lender.

(b) The Borrower shall indemnify the Arrangers, the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank, each Lender and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all Liabilities and related expenses (but limited, in the case of legal fees and expenses, to the actual reasonable and invoiced out-of-pocket fees, disbursements and other charges of one primary firm of counsel to the Administrative Agent, one primary firm of counsel to all other Indemnitees, taken as a whole, and, if reasonably necessary (as determined by Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion), one firm of local counsel in any relevant jurisdiction to all Indemnitees, taken as a whole (which may include a single firm of local counsel acting in multiple jurisdictions), and one firm of regulatory counsel, and solely in the case of an actual or reasonably perceived conflict of interest where any affected Indemnitee notifies the Borrower of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel, (x) one additional firm of counsel to all affected Indemnitees, taken as a whole, and (y) if reasonably necessary (as determined by Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion), one additional firm of local counsel to all affected Indemnitees, taken as a whole, and one additional firm of regulatory counsel to all affected Indemnitees, taken as a whole, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of the Loan Documents or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby or thereby and/or the enforcement of the Loan Documents, (ii) the use of the proceeds of the Loans or any Letter of Credit, (iii) any actual or alleged Release by, or the presence of Hazardous Materials on, at, under or from any property currently or formerly owned or operated by, Holdings, the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries, or any Environmental Claim or Environmental Liability relating to Holdings, the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries and/or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto (and regardless of whether such matter is initiated by a third party or by Holdings, the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates); provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the

186

extent that any such Liability or related expense (A) is determined by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction (or documented in any settlement agreement referred to below) to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or its Related Parties or, to the extent such judgment finds that any such Liability or related expense has resulted from such Indemnitee’s or any of its Related Parties’ material breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or (B) any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding solely between and among such Indemnitees (other than any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding that is brought by or against the Administrative Agent or the Arrangers, acting in its capacity as the Administrative Agent or as the Arrangers) that does not involve any act or omission of Holdings, the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries. Each Indemnitee shall be obligated to refund or return any and all amounts paid by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 9.03(b) to such Indemnitee to the extent such Indemnitee is not entitled to payment thereof in accordance with the terms hereof as determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. All amounts due under this paragraph (b) shall be payable by the Borrower within 30 days after receipt by the Borrower of a written demand therefor.

(c) The Borrower shall not be liable for any settlement of any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding effected without the written consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), but if any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding is settled with the written consent of the Borrower, or if there is a final judgment against any Indemnitee in any such proceeding, the Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee to the extent and in the manner set forth above. The Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of the affected Indemnitee (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), effect any settlement of any pending or threatened claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding in respect of which indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnitee unless (i) such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnitee from all liability or claims that are the subject matter of such claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding and (ii) such settlement does not include any statement as to any admission of fault or culpability.

Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and permitted assigns, to the extent provided in paragraph (e) of this Section 9.05, Participants and, to the

187

extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Sponsor and the Related Parties of each of the Arrangers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(B) the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for (1) any assignment to another Lender, an Affiliate of any Lender or an Approved Fund or (2) any assignment made in compliance with Section 9.05(f); and

(C) in the case of any Revolving Facility, each Issuing Bank (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided that (1) no consent of any Issuing Bank shall be required for any assignment to another Revolving Lender or an Affiliate or Approved Fund of any Revolving Lender and (2) no consent of Deutsche Bank, in its capacity as an Issuing Bank, shall be required if, at the time of the applicable assignment, no Letter of Credit issued by Deutsche Bank is outstanding.

188

(B) any partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement; provided that this clause (B) shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of one Class of Commitments and Loans;

If any assignment by any Lender holding any Promissory Note is made after the issuance of such Promissory Note, the assigning Lender shall, upon the effectiveness of such assignment or as promptly thereafter as practicable, surrender such Promissory Note to the Administrative Agent for cancellation, and, following such cancellation, if requested by either the assignee or the assigning Lender, the Borrower shall issue and deliver a new Promissory Note to such assignee and/or to such assigning Lender, with appropriate insertions, to reflect the new Commitments and/or outstanding Loans of the assignee and/or the assigning Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.05 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, but subject to the requirements of, paragraph (c) of this Section 9.05.

(iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain accessible at one of its offices in the U.S. a copy of each Assignment Agreement delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of and stated interest on the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender or Issuing Bank pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and Holdings, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register

189

pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by Holdings, the Borrower, each Issuing Bank and each Lender (but only as to its own holdings), in New York City (or through electronic means) at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment Agreement executed by an assigning Lender and an Eligible Assignee, the Eligible Assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire and any tax forms required by Section 9.05(b)(ii)(D)(2) (unless the assignee is already a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section, if applicable, and any written consent to the relevant assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section 9.05, the Administrative Agent shall promptly accept such Assignment Agreement and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph (b)(v).

(c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any other Lender or any other Person, sell participations to any Person (other than to any Disqualified Institution (unless an Event of Default under Section 7.01(a), 7.01(f) or 7.01(g) has occurred and is continuing), any natural person or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural person or Holdings or any of its Affiliates) (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) Holdings, the Borrower, the other Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks 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 any Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the relevant Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in clause (A)(1), (A)(2), (A)(3) or (A)(4) of the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that directly and adversely affects the Loans or Commitments in which such Participant has an interest. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14 and 2.15 (subject to the limitations and requirements of such Sections and Section 2.17) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 9.05 (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.15(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender, and if additional amounts are required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.15(a) or 2.15(c), to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent); provided that no Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.14 or 2.15 than the participating Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results in a Change in Law that occurs after such Participant acquired the applicable participation. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.09 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant shall be subject to Section 2.16(c) as though it were a Lender.

(ii) Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and their respective successors and registered assigns, and the principal of and stated interest amounts on each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (a “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose

190

all or any portion of any Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to any Participant’s interest in any Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or any other obligation under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations and Section 1.163-5(b) of the proposed U.S. Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and each Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(d) (i) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (other than to any Disqualified Institution (unless an Event of Default under Section 7.01(a), 7.01(f) or 7.01(g) has occurred and is continuing), any natural person or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural person) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to any Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender, and this Section 9.05 shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release any Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(ii) [Reserved].

(e) (i) Unless an Event of Default under Section 7.01(a), 7.01(f) or 7.01(g) has occurred and is continuing, if any assignment or participation under this Section 9.05 is made by any Lender without the Borrower’s prior written consent (A) if the Borrower’s consent is required under this Section 9.05, to any Disqualified Institution or (B) if the Borrower’s consent is required under this Section 9.05 (and not deemed to have been given pursuant to Section 9.05(b)(i)(A)) for such assignment or participation, to any other Person, then the Borrower shall be entitled to seek specific performance to unwind any such assignment or participation in addition to injunctive relief (without posting a bond or presenting evidence of irreparable harm) or any other remedy available to the Borrower at law or in equity; it being understood and agreed that Holdings, the Borrower and its subsidiaries will suffer irreparable harm if any Lender breaches any obligation under this Section 9.05 as it relates to any assignment or participation to any Disqualified Institution or to any other Person where the Borrower’s consent thereto is required but not obtained. Upon the request of any Lender, the Administrative Agent shall make the list of Disqualified Institutions available to such Lender at the relevant time and such Lender may provide the list of Disqualified Institutions to any potential assignee or participant on a confidential basis in accordance with Section 9.13 solely for the purpose of permitting such Person to verify whether such Person (or any Affiliate thereof) constitutes a Disqualified Institution.

(ii) Unless an Event of Default under Section 7.01(a), 7.01(f) or 7.01(g) has occurred and is continuing, if any Disqualified Institution shall have been identified by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, such Disqualified Institution (A) shall not be permitted to, and shall not, (x) attend (including by telephone) or participate in any meeting or discussion (or portion thereof) by or among the Borrower or any other Loan Party, the Administrative Agent or any Lender or (y) receive any information or materials prepared by the Borrower or any other Loan Party, the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or any communication by or among the Borrower or any other Loan Party, the Administrative Agent or any Lender (in each case, other than the right to receive notices of borrowings, prepayments and other administrative notices in respect of its Loans or Commitments

191

required to be delivered to Lenders pursuant to Article 2), (B) (x) shall not for purposes of determining whether the Required Lenders, the Required Revolving Lenders, the majority in interest of Lenders under any Class, each Lender or each directly and adversely affected Lender have (I) consented (or not consented) to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action with respect to any of the terms of any Loan Document or any departure by the Borrower or any other Loan Party therefrom, (II) otherwise acted on any matter related to any Loan Document or (III) 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, have a right to consent (or not consent), otherwise act or direct or require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to take (or refrain from taking) any such action (and shall have no right to vote any of its Term Loans, Revolving Credit Exposures and unused Commitments); it being understood that for purposes of any such determination all Term Loans, Revolving Credit Exposures and unused Commitments held by any Disqualified Institution shall be deemed to be not outstanding, and (y) shall be deemed to vote in the same proportion as Lenders that are not Disqualified Institution in any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law commenced by or against the Borrower or any other Loan Party and (C) shall not be entitled to receive the benefits of Section 2.12(d) or 9.03.

(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, each of Holdings, the Borrower, each other Loan Party and the Lenders acknowledges and agrees that (x) the Administrative Agent shall not have any responsibility or obligation to determine whether any Lender or potential Lender is a Disqualified Institution and the Administrative Agent shall have no liabilities with respect to any assignment or participation made to a Disqualified Institution and (y) (I) the Administrative Agent will be permitted to make the list of Disqualified Institutions available to any Lender and (II) the list of Disqualified Institutions shall be permitted to be disclosed to any prospective assignee, participant and contractual counterparty to any Hedge Agreement (including any credit default swap) or similar derivative product.

(iv) Nothing in this Section 9.05(e) shall be deemed to prejudice any right or remedy that the Sponsor, Holdings, the Borrower, or any other Loan Party may otherwise have at law or equity. It is understood that the provisions of paragraphs (ii) and (iii) of this Section 9.05(e) shall not apply to any Person that is an assignee of any Disqualified Institution, if such assignee is not a Disqualified Institution.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender may, at any time, assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement in respect of its Term Loans of any Class, to any Affiliated Lender or to Holdings, the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries, in each case, on a non-pro rata basis, through open market or other purchases, in each case, without the consent of the Administrative Agent; provided that:

(i) in the case of any such assignment to Holdings, the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries, any Term Loans acquired by it shall be retired and cancelled immediately upon the acquisition thereof; it being agreed that upon any such retirement and cancellation, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans of the applicable Class shall be deemed reduced by the full par value of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans so retired and cancelled, and each scheduled amortization payment installment with respect to the Term Loans of the applicable Class pursuant to Section 2.09(a) shall be reduced on a pro rata basis by the full par value of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans so retired and cancelled;

(ii) any Term Loans acquired by any Affiliated Lender shall be contributed to Holdings, the Borrower or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries for purposes of cancellation of such

192

Indebtedness (it being understood that such Term Loans shall be retired and cancelled promptly upon such contribution); provided, that upon such cancellation of Indebtedness, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans of the applicable Class shall be deemed reduced, as of the date of such contribution, by the full par value of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans so contributed and cancelled, and each principal repayment installment with respect to the Term Loans of such Class pursuant to Section 2.09(a) shall be reduced pro rata by the full par value of the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans so contributed and cancelled;

(ii) the relevant assignee and assigning Lender shall have executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent an Affiliated Lender Assignment and Assumption;

(iii) in the case of any such assignment to an Affiliated Lender, immediately after giving effect to the relevant assignment, the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans then held by all Affiliated Lenders shall not exceed 25% of the aggregate principal amount of any Class of Term Loans then outstanding (after giving effect to any substantially simultaneous retirements and cancellations thereof) (the “Affiliated Lender Cap”); provided that each party hereto acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever incurred or suffered by any Person in connection with any compliance or non-compliance with this clause (iii) or any purported assignment exceeding the Affiliated Lender Cap (it being understood and agreed that the Affiliated Lender Cap is intended to apply to any Term Loans held by Affiliated Lenders by means other than formal assignment (e.g., as a result of an acquisition of another Lender by an Affiliated Lender or the provision of Additional Term Loans by any Affiliated Lender)); provided further that to the extent that any assignment to any Affiliated Lender would result in the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans then held by all Affiliated Lenders exceeding the Affiliated Lender Cap (after giving effect to any substantially simultaneous retirements and cancellations thereof), the assignment of the relevant excess amount shall be null and void;

(iv) in the case of any assignment to Holdings, the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries effected pursuant to an open market purchase, (A) the relevant Person may not use the proceeds of any Revolving Loans to fund the purchase price for such assignment and (B) no Default or Event of Default exists at the time of confirmation of such open market or other purchase, as applicable;

(v) in the case of any assignment to an Affiliated Lender, whether by its acquisition of Term Loans or otherwise, such Affiliated Lender shall be deemed to have acknowledged and agreed that:

(A) the Term Loans held by such Affiliated Lender shall be disregarded in both the numerator and denominator in the calculation of any Required Lender or other Lender vote; provided that (x) such Affiliated Lender shall be deemed to be voted pro rata along with the other Lenders that are not Affiliated Lenders, except that such Affiliated Lender shall have the right to vote (and the Term Loans held by such Affiliated Lender shall not be so disregarded) with respect to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action that requires the vote of all Lenders (or all Lenders of the applicable Class) or all Lenders (or all Lenders of the applicable Class) directly and adversely affected thereby, as the case may be, and (y) no amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action shall (1) disproportionately affect such Affiliated Lender in its capacity as a Lender as compared to other Lenders of the same Class that are not Affiliated Lenders or (2) deprive any Affiliated Lender of its share of any payments which the Lenders are entitled to share on a pro rata basis hereunder, in each case, without the consent of such Affiliated Lender; and

193

(B) such Affiliated Lender, solely in its capacity as a Lender, will not be entitled to (x) attend (including by telephone) or participate in any meeting or discussion (or portion thereof) among the Administrative Agent or any Lender or among Lenders to which the Borrower or any other Loan Parties or their representatives are not invited or (y) receive any information or materials prepared by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any communication by or among the Administrative Agent and one or more Lenders, except to the extent such information, materials or communication have been made available by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to the Borrower or other Loan Party or its representatives (and in any case, other than the right to receive notices of borrowings, prepayments and other administrative notices in respect of its Term Loans required to be delivered to Lenders pursuant to Article 2);

(vi) in the case of any assignment to an Affiliated Lender, whether by its acquisition of Term Loans or otherwise, such Affiliated Lender shall be deemed to have acknowledged and agreed that in any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law, the interest of such Affiliated Lender in any Term Loan of any Class will be deemed to be voted in the same proportion as the vote of Lenders of such Class that are not Affiliated Lender on the relevant matter; provided that each Affiliated Lender will be entitled to vote its interest in any Term Loan of any Class to the extent that any plan of reorganization or other arrangement with respect to which the relevant vote is sought proposes to treat the interest of such Affiliated Lender in such Term Loan in a manner that is less favorable to such Affiliated Lender than the proposed treatment of Term Loans of such Class held by other Term Lenders that are not Affiliated Lenders; and

(vii) neither Holdings, the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries nor any Affiliated Lender shall be required to represent or warrant that it is not in possession of any material nonpublic information with respect to Holdings, the Borrower and/or any subsidiary thereof and/or their respective securities in connection with any assignment permitted by this Section 9.05(f).

The Administrative Agent is authorized to make appropriate entries in the Register to reflect any retirement and cancelation of the Term Loans retired and cancelled pursuant to this Section 9.05(f). Any payment made by Holdings, the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries in connection with an acquisition of Term Loans permitted by this Section 9.05(f) shall not be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.15 and 2.16. Failure by Holdings, the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries to make any payment to a Lender required to be made in consideration of an acquisition of Term Loans permitted by this Section 9.05(f) shall not constitute a Default under Section 7.01.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Term Loans acquired by any Affiliated Lender may (but shall not be required to) be contributed to the Borrower, provided that, in the case of any such contribution to the Borrower, such Term Loans shall be retired and cancelled immediately upon the contribution thereof, it being agreed that upon any such retirement and cancellation, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans of the applicable Class shall be deemed reduced by the full par value of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans so retired and cancelled, and each scheduled amortization payment with respect to the Term Loans of the applicable Class pursuant to Section 2.09(a) shall be reduced on a pro rata basis by the full par value of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans so retired and cancelled.

SECTION 9.06. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower and the other Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loan and the issuance of any Letter of Credit

194

regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or Event of Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect until the Termination Date. The provisions of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 9.03, 9.04 and 9.13 and Article 8 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments, the occurrence of the Termination Date or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof but, in each case, subject to the limitations set forth in this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, from and after the Termination Date (or, with respect to any Letter of Credit, from and after such other time prior to the Termination Date as may be agreed in writing by the applicable Issuing Bank, such Letter of Credit), each Letter of Credit shall cease to be a “Letter of Credit” outstanding hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the Revolving Lenders shall be deemed to have no participations in such Letter of Credit, and no obligations with respect thereto, under Section 2.05(d).

SECTION 9.07. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness; Electronic Execution.

(a) This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Fee Letter, the First Amendment Fee Letter, the Agent Fee Letter and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire agreement among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement shall become effective when it has been executed by Holdings, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent has received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

(b) Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any document, amendment, approval, consent, information, notice (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any notice delivered pursuant to Section 9.01), certificate, request, statement, disclosure or authorization related to this Agreement, any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (each, an “Ancillary Document”) that is an Electronic Signature transmitted by emailed .pdf or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement, such other Loan Document or such Ancillary Document, as applicable. The words “execution”, “signed”, “signature”, “delivery” and words of like import in or relating to this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any Ancillary Document shall be deemed to include Electronic Signatures, deliveries or the keeping of records in any electronic form (including deliveries by emailed .pdf or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page), each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be; provided that nothing herein shall require the Administrative Agent to accept Electronic Signatures in any form or format without its prior written consent and pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided, further, without limiting the foregoing, (i) to the extent the Administrative Agent and the Borrower have agreed to accept any Electronic Signature, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks, the Borrower and each other Loan Party shall be entitled to rely on such Electronic Signature purportedly given by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any Issuing Bank, the Borrower or any other Loan Party without further verification thereof and without any obligation to review the appearance or form of any such Electronic Signature and (ii) upon the request of

195

the Administrative Agent, the Borrower or any Lender, any Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by a manually executed counterpart. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each party hereto (A) agrees that, for all purposes, including without limitation, in connection with any workout, restructuring, enforcement of remedies, bankruptcy proceedings or litigation among the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks, the Borrower and the other Loan Parties, Electronic Signatures transmitted by emailed .pdf or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page or any electronic images of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any Ancillary Document shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as any paper original, (B) agrees that each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks, the Borrower and the other Loan Parties may, at its option, create one or more copies of this Agreement, any other Loan Document and any Ancillary Document in the form of an imaged electronic record in any format, which shall be deemed created in the ordinary course of such Person’s business, and destroy the original paper document (and all such electronic records shall be considered an original for all purposes and shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a paper record), (C) waives any argument, defense or right to contest the legal effect, validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any Ancillary Document based solely on the lack of paper original copies of this Agreement, such other Loan Document or such Ancillary Document, respectively, including with respect to any signature pages thereto, and (D) waives any claim against the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any Issuing Bank, the Borrower or any other Loan Party for any Liabilities arising solely from the Administrative Agent’s and/or any Lender’s, Issuing Bank’s, Borrower’s or any other Loan Party’s reliance on or use of Electronic Signatures or transmissions by emailed .pdf or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page, including any Liabilities arising as a result of the failure of the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any Issuing Bank, the Borrower or any other Loan Party to use any available security measures in connection with the execution, delivery or transmission of any Electronic Signature.

SECTION 9.08. Severability. To the extent permitted by applicable law, any provision of any Loan Document held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions thereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. The parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions.

SECTION 9.09. Right of Setoff. At any time when an Event of Default exists, the Administrative Agent and, subject to the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in any currency) at any time owing by the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender to or for the credit or the account of any Loan Party against any and all of the Obligations held by the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender, irrespective of whether or not the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender shall have made any demand under the Loan Documents and although such obligations may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender or Issuing Bank different than the branch or office holding such deposit or obligation on such Indebtedness; provided that to the extent prohibited by applicable law as described in the definition of “Excluded Swap Obligation”, no amounts received from, or set off with respect to, any Guarantor shall be applied to any Excluded Swap Obligations of such Guarantor. Any applicable Lender or Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of such set-off or application; provided that any failure to give or any delay in giving such notice shall not affect the validity of any such set-off or application under this Section 9.09. The rights of each Lender, each Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent under this Section 9.09 are in addition to other rights and

196

remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender, such Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent may have.

The Administrative Agent, each Lender, each Issuing Bank and the Arrangers agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Confidential Information (as defined below), except that Confidential Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, managers, employees, administrators, trustees, beneficial owners, financing sources, investment funds, separate accounts, investors, prospective investors, independent auditors, or other experts and advisors, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (collectively, the “Representatives”), on a “need to know” basis solely in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and who are subject to customary confidentiality obligations of professional practice or are informed of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information and are or have been advised of their obligation to keep the confidential information of this type confidential; provided that such Person shall be responsible for its Affiliates’ and its and their Representatives’ compliance with this paragraph; provided further that unless the Borrower otherwise consents in writing, no such disclosure shall be made by the Administrative Agent,

198

the Arrangers, any Lender or any Issuing Bank or any Affiliate or Representative thereof to any Affiliate or Representative of the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, any Lender or any Issuing Bank that is a Disqualified Institution (unless an Event of Default under Section 7.01(a), 7.01(f) or 7.01(g) has occurred and is continuing), (b) to the extent compelled by legal process in, or reasonably necessary to, the defense of such legal, judicial or administrative proceeding, in any legal, judicial or administrative proceeding or otherwise as required by applicable law (in which case such Person shall, except with respect to any audit or examination conducted by bank accountants or any regulatory authority exercising examination or regulatory authority over such Person or its Affiliates, (i) to the extent permitted by applicable law, inform the Borrower promptly and, to the extent practicable, in advance thereof and (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that any such information so disclosed is accorded confidential treatment), (c) upon the demand or request of any regulatory or governmental authority (including any self-regulatory body, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization or examiner) purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or its Affiliates (in which case such Person shall, except with respect to any audit or examination conducted by bank accountants or any regulatory or governmental authority (including any self-regulatory body) exercising examination or regulatory authority over such Person or its Affiliates, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (i) inform the Borrower promptly and, to the extent practicable, in advance thereof and (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that any information so disclosed is accorded confidential treatment), (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) subject to an acknowledgment and agreement by the relevant recipient that the Confidential Information is being disseminated on a confidential basis (on substantially the terms set forth in this paragraph or as otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent) in accordance with the market standards for dissemination of the relevant type of information, which shall in any event require “click through” or other affirmative action on the part of the recipient to access the Confidential Information and acknowledge its confidentiality obligations in respect thereof, to (i) any Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective Eligible Assignee of or prospective Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement (in each case other than a Disqualified Institution unless an Event of Default under Section 7.01(a), 7.01(f) or 7.01(g) has occurred and is continuing), (ii) any pledgee referred to in Section 9.05 and (iii) any actual or prospective, direct or indirect contractual counterparty (or its advisors) to any Hedge Agreement (including any credit default swap) or similar derivative product relating to any Loan Party (other than any Disqualified Institution unless an Event of Default under Section 7.01(a), 7.01(f) or 7.01(g) has occurred and is continuing), (f) to market data collectors and service providers to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in connection with the administration and management of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (limited to information that is routinely given by agents, arrangers or lenders to such Persons), (g) with the prior written consent of the Borrower, (h) to the extent the Confidential Information becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 9.13 by such Person, its Affiliates or their respective Representatives, (i) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder or under any other Loan Document, (j) for purposes of establishing a due diligence defense, (k) by any Lender to any rating agency in connection with obtaining or maintaining ratings of such Lender or an Affiliate or Approved Fund thereof (or of their respective obligations), solely to the extent disclosure of such information is required by such rating agency (it being understood that, prior to any such disclosure, such rating agency shall undertake to preserve on customary terms the confidentiality of any Confidential Information received by it from such Lender), or (l) to the extent required by a potential or actual insurer or reinsurer in connection with providing insurance, reinsurance or credit risk mitigation coverage under which payments are to be made or may be made by reference to this Agreement. For purposes of this Section, “Confidential Information” means all information relating to Holdings, the Borrower or any of its Affiliates and their respective businesses or the Acquisition or the Transactions (including any information obtained by the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the Arrangers or any Issuing Bank or any of their respective Affiliates or Representatives, based on a review of any books and records relating to Holdings, the Borrower or any of its Affiliates from time to time, including prior to the Closing Date), other than any such information

199

that is available to the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, any Lender or any Issuing Bank on a non- confidential basis prior to disclosure by Holdings, the Borrower or any of its Affiliates. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall any disclosure of any Confidential Information be made to any Person that is, at the time of disclosure, a Disqualified Institution (unless an Event of Default under Section 7.01(a), 7.01(f) or 7.01(g) has occurred and is continuing). For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein prohibits any individual from communicating or disclosing Information regarding suspected violations of laws, rules, or regulations to a Governmental Authority or self-regulatory authority without any notification to any Person.

SECTION 9.14. No Fiduciary Duty. (a) The Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and their respective Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes of this paragraph, the “Lenders”), may have economic or other interests that conflict with those of the Borrower and other Loan Parties, their stockholders and/or their respective Affiliates. Holdings and the Borrower agree, on behalf of themselves and the other Loan Parties and their respective subsidiaries, that nothing in the Loan Documents or otherwise will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Lender, on the one hand, and the Borrower or any other Loan Party, its stockholders or their respective Affiliates, on the other. Holdings and the Borrower acknowledge and agree, on behalf of themselves and the other Loan Parties and their respective subsidiaries, that: (i) the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Borrower and other Loan Parties and their respective subsidiaries, on the other, and (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto, (A) no Lender, in its capacity as such, has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, its stockholders or their respective Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or will advise the Borrower or any other Loan Party, its stockholders or their respective Affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to the Borrower or any other Loan Party except the obligations expressly set forth in the Loan Documents and (B) each Lender, in its capacity as such, is acting solely as principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, its management, stockholders, creditors or any other Person. Each of Holdings and the Borrower agree, on behalf of themselves and the other Loan Parties and their respective subsidiaries, that it will not assert any claim against any Lender based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by such Lender in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Additionally, Holdings and the Borrower acknowledge and agree, on behalf of themselves and the other Loan Parties and their respective subsidiaries, that no Lender is advising any of them as to any legal, tax, investment, accounting, regulatory or any other matters in any jurisdiction. Holdings and the Borrower acknowledge and agree, on behalf of themselves and the other Loan Parties and their respective subsidiaries, that the Borrower and each other Loan Party has consulted its own legal, tax and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. Holdings and the Borrower acknowledge and agree, on behalf of themselves and the other Loan Parties and their respective subsidiaries, that it will not claim that any Lender (solely in its capacity as such) owes a fiduciary duty or similar duty to such Person in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.

(b) Holdings and the Borrower also acknowledge and agree, on behalf of themselves and the other Loan Parties and their respective subsidiaries, that no Lender has any obligation to use in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents, or to furnish to the Borrower, confidential information obtained from other companies.

(c) Each of Holdings and the Borrower (on behalf of themselves and the other Loan Parties and their respective subsidiaries), each Issuing Bank, and each Lender hereby acknowledges and

200

agrees that the Administrative Agent and/or its Affiliates from time to time may hold investments in, make other loans to or have other relationships with any of the Loan Parties and their respective Affiliates.

SECTION 9.15. Several Obligations. The respective obligations of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks hereunder are several and not joint and the failure of any Lender or any Issuing Bank to make any Loan, issue any Letter of Credit or perform any of its obligations hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender or any other Issuing Bank from any of its obligations hereunder.

SECTION 9.16. USA PATRIOT Act and Beneficial Ownership Regulation. Each Lender that is subject to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act and/or the Beneficial Ownership Regulation hereby notifies the Borrower and other Loan Parties that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower and other Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower or other Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower or other Loan Party in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation.

SECTION 9.17. Appointment for Perfection. Each Lender and Issuing Bank hereby appoints each other Lender and Issuing Bank as its agent for the purpose of perfecting Liens for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders, in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC or any other applicable law, can be perfected only by possession. If any Lender or Issuing Bank (other than the Administrative Agent) obtains possession of any Collateral, such Lender or Issuing Bank shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof and, promptly upon the Administrative Agent’s request therefor shall deliver such Collateral to the Administrative Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s instructions.

SECTION 9.18. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan or Letter of Credit, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan or Letter of Credit under applicable law (collectively the “Charged Amounts”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender or Issuing Bank holding such Loan or Letter of Credit in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan or Letter of Credit hereunder, together with all Charged Amounts payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charged Amounts that would have been payable in respect of such Loan or Letter of Credit but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charged Amounts payable to such Lender or Issuing Bank in respect of other Loans or Letters of Credit or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the NYFRB Rate to the date of repayment, have been received by such Lender or Issuing Bank.

SECTION 9.19. Intercreditor Agreements. (a) Each of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the other Secured Parties acknowledges that obligations of the Loan Parties under certain Indebtedness that is permitted to be incurred hereunder and secured by a Lien on the Collateral that is pari passu or junior with the Liens on the Collateral securing the Obligations are required or permitted, under the terms hereof, to be subject to an Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement (such Indebtedness being referred to hereunder as “Specified Intercreditor Indebtedness”). Each of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the other Secured Parties hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver, in each case on behalf of such Secured Party and without any further consent, authorization or other action by such Secured Party, in connection with the establishment, incurrence, amendment, refinancing or replacement of any such Specified Intercreditor Indebtedness, any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement (it being understood that the Required Lenders are hereby authorized and directed to determine the terms and

201

conditions of any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement as and to the extent contemplated by the definition of each such term), including any amendment, supplement or other modification to any Loan Document to implement the terms of any such Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement, and any ancillary documents thereto.

(b) Each of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the other Secured Parties hereby irrevocably (i) consents to the treatment of the Liens and the Secured Obligations to be provided for under any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement, (ii) agrees that, upon the execution and delivery thereof, such Secured Party will be bound by the provisions of any Intercreditor Agreement (including any purchase option(s) contained therein) as if it were a signatory thereto and will take no actions contrary to the provisions of any Intercreditor Agreement, (iii) agrees that no Secured Party shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent as a result of any action taken by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section or in accordance with the terms of any Intercreditor Agreement and (iv) authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to carry out the provisions and intent of each such document.

(c) Each of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the other Secured Parties hereby irrevocably further authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver, in each case on behalf of such Secured Party and without any further consent, authorization or other action by such Secured Party, any amendments, supplements or other modifications of any Intercreditor Agreement that the Borrower may from time to time request (i) to give effect to any establishment, incurrence, amendment, extension, renewal, refinancing or replacement of any Indebtedness contemplated hereby to be subject thereto or (ii) to confirm for any party that such Intercreditor Agreement is effective and binding upon the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties.

(d) Each of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the other Secured Parties hereby irrevocably further authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver, in each case on behalf of such Secured Party and without any further consent, authorization or other action by such Secured Party, any amendments, supplements or other modifications of any Collateral Document to add or amend any legend that may be required pursuant to any Intercreditor Agreement.

SECTION 9.20. Conflicts. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, in the event of any conflict or inconsistency between this Agreement and any other Loan Document, the terms of this Agreement shall govern and control; provided that in the case of any conflict or inconsistency between any Intercreditor Agreement and any Loan Document, the terms of such Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control.

SECTION 9.21. Release of Loan Parties and Liens. (a) Notwithstanding anything in Section 9.02(b) to the contrary, (i) upon the occurrence of the Termination Date, (x) the Borrower and each other Loan Party shall automatically be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents (and its Loan Guaranty and any Liens granted by it under the Loan Documents shall automatically be released) and (y) each of Holdings, the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries shall automatically be released from its obligations under the Intercompany Note (and the Intercompany Note shall terminate and cease to be in effect, it being understood, however, that nothing in this clause (y) shall affect the Indebtedness that was evidenced by the Intercompany Note, which shall remain outstanding and in effect in accordance with the terms theretofore agreed by the payee and the payor in respect of such Indebtedness), (ii) any Subsidiary Guarantor shall automatically be released from its obligations under (x) the Loan Documents (and its Loan Guaranty and any Liens granted by it under the Loan Documents shall be automatically be released) and (y) the Intercompany Note, in each case, upon the consummation of any transaction permitted hereunder if as a result thereof such Subsidiary Guarantor ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary and (iii) without limiting the immediately preceding clause (ii), any Subsidiary Guarantor that qualifies as an Excluded Subsidiary (other than as a result of any transaction that is not permitted hereunder) shall automatically be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents (and its Loan Guaranty and any Liens granted by it under

202

the Loan Documents shall be released) upon written notice thereof by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that the release of any Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to clause (iii) above solely if such Subsidiary Guarantor becomes an Excluded Subsidiary of the type described in clause (a) of the definition of such term shall only be permitted if, at the time such Subsidiary Guarantor becomes an Excluded Subsidiary of such type, (1) the transaction pursuant to which such Subsidiary Guarantor became an Excluded Subsidiary of such type was (x) for a bona fide business purpose and (y) was not in contemplation of adversely affecting the Secured Parties’ interests in the Loan Guaranty provided by such Subsidiary Guarantor and the Collateral securing the Obligations, (2) after giving Pro Forma Effect to such release and the consummation of the transaction pursuant to which such Subsidiary Guarantor became an Excluded Subsidiary of such type, the Borrower is deemed to have made a new Investment in such Subsidiary Guarantor for purposes of Section 6.05 (as if such Subsidiary Guarantor were then newly acquired) and such Investment is permitted pursuant to Section 6.05 (in the case of Section 6.05(b), limited to Section 6.05(b)(iii)) at such time, (3) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (4) the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Responsible Officer certifying compliance with preceding clauses (1) and (2); provided further that no such release shall occur if such Subsidiary Guarantor continues to be a guarantor in respect of any Specified Other Indebtedness.

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any Liens on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document shall automatically be released (i) upon the occurrence of the Termination Date, (ii) if the property subject to such Lien (A) is Disposed of in any Disposition permitted under this Agreement to a Person that is not a Loan Party, (B) constitutes (or becomes) an Excluded Asset, (C) is owned by a Subsidiary Guarantor, upon the release of such Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty Agreement in accordance with the Loan Documents, or (D) is comprised of property leased to any Loan Party by a Person that is not a Loan Party (or interests in such lease), upon termination or expiration of such lease, (iii) as expressly provided in any Acceptable Intercreditor Agreement or (iv) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders in accordance with Section 9.02.

(c) In connection with any release under Section 9.21(a) or 9.21(b), the Administrative Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to the Borrower or any other Loan Party, at the Borrower’s expense, all documents that the Borrower or such other Loan Party shall reasonably request to evidence termination or release; provided that upon the request of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall deliver a certificate of a Responsible Officer certifying that the relevant transaction has been consummated in compliance with the terms of this Agreement, and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any such certificate. Any execution and delivery of any document pursuant to the preceding sentence of this Section 9.21(c) shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent (other than as to the Administrative Agent’s authority to execute and deliver such documents).

SECTION 9.22. Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any of the parties hereto, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

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

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

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

203

(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 entity or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.

SECTION 9.23. Acknowledgment Regarding Any Supported QFCs. (a) To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Hedge Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC, a “Supported QFC”), the parties hereto acknowledge and agree as set forth in Section 9.23(b) 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 U.S. or any other state of the U.S.).

(b) 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 U.S. or a state of the U.S. 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 U.S. or a state of the U.S. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that the rights and remedies of the parties hereto 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.

SECTION 9.24. Assumptions and Acknowledgment. Effective immediately and automatically upon the consummation of the Closing Date Merger, without action by any other Person, (x) Merger Sub hereby assigns to the Company all of its rights, title, interests, liabilities (including Indebtedness), obligations (including the Obligations), and duties as the “Borrower” hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and the Company hereby expressly, unconditionally and irrevocably (1) assumes all of the rights, title, interests, liabilities (including Indebtedness), obligations (including the Obligations) and duties of Merger Sub as the “Borrower” hereunder and under the other Loan Documents as if the Company was originally the “Borrower” and (2) agrees to pay, perform, and discharge such liabilities (including Indebtedness), obligations (including the Obligations), and duties in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any and all covenants and other obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the Company will become the “Borrower” for all purposes under this Agreement.
