6 to the terms hereof, during the period from the expiration of the time for delivery thereof until each such Borrowing Base Certificate is so delivered.

(m) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, when the payment of any obligation or the performance of any covenant, duty, or obligation is stated to be due or performance required on (or before) 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

96 immediately succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be. 1.3. Exchange Rates; Currency Equivalents; Letters of Credit. The applicable Issuing Lender shall determine the Spot Rates as of each Revaluation Date to be used for calculating Dollar Equivalent amounts of the face amount of Letters of Credit denominated in Canadian Dollars and of L/C Disbursements in respect thereof, including any other amounts that will be incurred, outstanding or purposed to be incurred or outstanding in connection therewith. Such Spot Rates shall become effective as of such Revaluation Date and shall be the Spot Rates employed in converting any amounts between the applicable currencies until the next Revaluation Date to occur. Each applicable Issuing Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative on each Revaluation Date of the Spot Rates determined by it and the related Dollar Equivalent of L/C Obligations then outstanding. The applicable amount of Canadian Dollars for purposes of any determination under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents shall be such Dollar Equivalent amount as so determined by the applicable Issuing Lender and notified to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in accordance with this Subsection 1.3. Unless otherwise specified herein, the amount of a Letter of Credit at any time shall be deemed to be the stated amount of such Letter of Credit available to be drawn at such time; provided that with respect to any Letter of Credit that, by its terms, provides for one or more automatic increases in the available amount thereof, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be the maximum amount of such Letter of Credit after giving effect to all such increases, whether or not such maximum amount is available to be drawn at such time. For all purposes of this Agreement, if on any date of determination a Letter of Credit has expired by its terms but any amount may still be drawn thereunder by reason of the operation of Article 29(a) of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 600 (or such later version thereof as may be in effect at the applicable time) or Rule 3.13 or Rule 3.14 of the International Standby Practices, International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 590 (or such later version thereof as may be in effect at the applicable time) or similar terms in the governing rules or law or of the Letter of Credit itself, or if compliant documents have been presented but not yet honored, such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be “outstanding” and “undrawn” in the amount so remaining available to be paid, and the obligations of the Borrowers and each Lender shall remain in full force and effect until the Issuing Lender and the Lenders shall have no further obligations to make any payments or disbursements under any circumstances with respect to any Letter of Credit. 1.4. Interest Rates; Benchmark Notification. The interest rate on Loans may be derived from an interest rate benchmark that may be discontinued or is, or may in future become, the subject of regulatory reform. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, Subsection 4.7(b) provides the 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, the administration, submission or any other matter related to any interest rate used in this Agreement, or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof (including, without limitation, (i) any such alternative, successor or replacement rate implemented pursuant to Subsection 4.7(b) and (ii) the implementation of any

97 Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes hereunder), 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 rate being replaced or have the same volume or liquidity as did the rate being replaced prior to its discontinuance or unavailability. 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 Loan Parties. 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 any Loan Party, any Lender or any other person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or calculation of any such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service. 1.5. Alternative Currencies. (a) The Borrowers may from time to time request that Term Benchmark Loans or RFR Loans be made and/or Multicurrency Sub-Facility Letters of Credit be issued in a currency other than Dollars, Canadian Dollars, Euros and Pounds Sterling; provided that such requested currency is a lawful currency that is readily available and freely transferable and convertible into Dollars. In the case of any such request with respect to the making of Term Benchmark Loans or RFR Loans, such request shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders; and in the case of any such request with respect to the issuance of Letters of Credit, such request shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Lender. (b) Any such request shall be made to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., 20 Business Days prior to the date of the desired Extension of Credit (or such other time or date as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent and, in the case of any such request pertaining to Letters of Credit, the Issuing Lender, in its or their sole discretion). In the case of any such request pertaining to Term Benchmark Loans or RFR Loans, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof; and in the case of any such request pertaining to Letters of Credit, the Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the applicable Issuing Lender thereof. Each Lender (in the case of any such request pertaining to Term Benchmark Loans or RFR Loans) or the applicable Issuing Lender (in the case of a request pertaining to Letters of Credit) shall notify the Administrative Agent, not later than 11:00 a.m., ten Business Days after receipt of such request whether it consents, in its sole discretion, to the making of Term Benchmark Loans or RFR Loans or the issuance of Letters of Credit, as the case may be, in such requested currency. (c) Any failure by a Lender or the applicable Issuing Lender, as the case may be, to respond to such request within the time period specified in the preceding sentence shall be deemed to be a refusal by such Lender or the applicable Issuing Lender, as the case may be, to permit Term Benchmark Loans or RFR Loans to be made or Letters of Credit to be issued in such requested currency. If the Administrative Agent and all the Lenders consent to making Term

98 Benchmark Loans or RFR Loans in such requested currency, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Borrowers and such currency shall thereupon be deemed for all purposes to be an Alternative Currency hereunder for purposes of any borrowings of Term Benchmark Loans or RFR Loans; and if the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Lender consents to the issuance of Letters of Credit in such requested currency, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the U.S. Borrower and such currency shall thereupon be deemed for all purposes to be an Alternative Currency hereunder for purposes of any Letter of Credit issuances. If the Administrative Agent shall fail to obtain consent to any request for an additional currency under this Subsection 1.5, the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify the U.S. Borrower. (d) The Administrative Agent and the U.S. Borrower, may, without the consent of any Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the U.S. Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Subsection 1.5, and for the avoidance of doubt, this Subsection 1.5(d) shall supersede any provisions in Subsections 1.5(b) and (c) or Subsection 11.1 to the contrary, but no such amendment shall curtail any right specifically granted to any Lender under Subsection 1.5(a) or (b). 1.6. Canadian Terms. (a) All terms used in this Agreement which are defined in Article 8 or Article 9 of the UCC, when used to define a category or categories of the Collateral which is subject to the PPSA, shall include the equivalent category or categories of property set forth in the applicable PPSA. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (i) any term defined in this Agreement by reference to the “Uniform Commercial Code” or “UCC” with respect to the Canadian Loan Parties or Canadian Collateral shall also have any extended, alternative or analogous meaning given to such term in the applicable PPSA and other applicable Canadian laws (including, without limitation, the Bills of Exchange Act (Canada) and the Depository Bills and Notes Act (Canada)), in all cases for the extension, preservation or betterment of the security and rights of the Collateral, (ii) any and all references in this Agreement to Article 7, Article 8 or Article 9 of the UCC shall be deemed to refer also to applicable Canadian securities transfer laws including the Securities Transfer Act, 2006 (Ontario), as amended from time to time, (iii) any and all references in this Agreement to a financing statement, continuation statement, amendment or termination statement shall be deemed to refer also to the analogous documents used under the applicable PPSA, including, without limitation, where applicable, financing change statements, (iv) any and all references to federal or state securities law of the United States shall be deemed to refer also to analogous federal and provincial securities laws in Canada, and (v) any and all references to state or federal bankruptcy laws shall be deemed to refer also to any insolvency proceeding occurring in Canada or under Canadian federal, provincial or territorial law.

ARTICLE 2 AMOUNT AND TERMS OF COMMITMENTS 2.1. Commitments. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein: (i) Each Lender severally agrees to make, at any time and from time to time on or after the Closing Date and prior to the Termination Date to the U.S. Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower (or their permitted successors hereunder) (on a joint and several basis as between the Borrowers) one or more U.S. Dollar Facility Revolving Loans, which U.S. Dollar Facility Revolving Loans: (1) shall be denominated in Dollars; (2) shall, at the option of the Borrowers, be incurred and maintained as, and/or converted into, ABR Loans or Term SOFR Rate Loans, provided that except as otherwise specifically provided in Subsections 4.9 and 4.10, all U.S. Dollar Facility Revolving Loans comprising the same Borrowing shall at all times be of the same Type;

100 (3) may be repaid and reborrowed in accordance with the provisions hereof; (4) shall not be made (and shall not be required to be made) by any Lender to the extent the incurrence thereof (after giving effect to the use of the proceeds thereof on the date of the incurrence thereof to repay any amounts theretofore outstanding pursuant to this Agreement) would cause the Individual Lender Exposure of such Lender to exceed the amount of its U.S. Dollar Facility Commitment at such time; and (5) shall not be made (and shall not be required to be made) by any Lender to the extent the incurrence thereof (after giving effect to the use of the proceeds thereof on the date of the incurrence thereof to repay any amounts theretofore outstanding pursuant to this Agreement) would cause the sum of the then outstanding U.S. Dollar Facility Swing Line Loans, U.S. Dollar Facility Revolving Loans, U.S. Dollar Facility L/C Obligations, Multicurrency Sub-Facility Swing Line Loans, Multicurrency Sub-Facility Revolving Loans and Multicurrency Sub-Facility L/C Obligations (such sum, the “Aggregate Outstandings”) to exceed Availability. (ii) Each Lender severally agrees to make, at any time and from time to time on or after the Closing Date and prior to the Termination Date to U.S. Borrower or any Subsidiary Borrower (or their permitted successors hereunder) (on a joint and several basis as between the Borrowers) one or more Multicurrency Sub-Facility Revolving Loans, which Multicurrency Sub-Facility Revolving Loans: (1) (x) denominated in Canadian Dollars may be Canadian Prime Rate Loans, Term CORRA Loans or, solely following a Benchmark Transition Event and a Benchmark Replacement Date with respect to Term CORRA, Daily Simple CORRA Loans, (y) denominated in Euros may be EURIBOR Loans and (z) denominated in Pounds Sterling may be SONIA Loans, in each case as further provided herein. Multicurrency Sub-Facility Revolving Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency must be Term Benchmark Loans or RFR Loans; provided that except as otherwise specifically provided in Subsections 4.9 and 4.10, all Multicurrency Sub-Facility Revolving Loans comprising the same Borrowing shall at all times be of the same Type; (2) may be repaid and reborrowed in accordance with the provisions hereof; (3) shall not be made (and shall not be required to be made) by any Lender to the extent the incurrence thereof (after giving effect to the use of the proceeds thereof on the date of the incurrence thereof to repay any amounts theretofore outstanding pursuant to this Agreement) would cause the Individual Lender Exposure of such Lender to exceed the amount of its Multicurrency Sub- Facility Commitment at such time; and

101 (4) shall not be made (and shall not be required to be made) by any Lender to the extent the incurrence thereof (after giving effect to the use of the proceeds thereof on the date of the incurrence thereof to repay any amounts theretofore outstanding pursuant to this Agreement) would cause either (A) Aggregate Outstandings to exceed Availability or (B) the sum of the then outstanding Multicurrency Sub-Facility Swing Line Loans, Multicurrency Sub- Facility Revolving Loans and Multicurrency Sub-Facility L/C Obligations to exceed the Aggregate Multicurrency Sub-Facility Commitments as then in effect. (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Subsection 2.1(a) or elsewhere in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to establish Availability Reserves in such amounts, and with respect to such matters, as the Administrative Agent in its Permitted Discretion shall deem necessary or appropriate, against the Borrowing Base or Availability including reserves with respect to (i) sums that the Borrowers are or will be required to pay (such as taxes (including payroll and sales taxes), assessments, insurance premiums, or, in the case of leased assets, rents or other amounts payable under such leases), (ii) sums that the Borrowers are or will be required to pay in connection with any restructuring or work-out of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries capitalization structure and have not yet paid and (iii) amounts owing by the Borrowers or, without duplication, their respective Restricted Subsidiaries to any Person to the extent secured by a Lien on, or trust over, any of the Collateral, which Lien or trust, in the Permitted Discretion of the Administrative Agent is capable of ranking senior in priority to or pari passu with one or more of the Liens in the Collateral granted in the Security Documents (such as Liens or trusts in favor of landlords, warehousemen, carriers, mechanics, materialmen, laborers, or suppliers, or Liens or trusts for ad valorem, excise, sales, or other taxes where given priority under applicable law) in and to such item of the Collateral (including any such Liens in respect of Management Guarantees (as defined in a Guarantee and Collateral Agreement)); provided that (x) with respect to any Availability Reserve (other than any Designated Hedging Reserves or Designated Cash Management Reserves), the Administrative Agent shall have provided the U.S. Borrower 3 Business Days’ prior notice of any such establishment; provided that during the period following notice and prior to the imposition of such change, there shall be no Extension of Credit that would result in Excess Availability being less than the amount by which Availability would be reduced after the imposition of such proposed Availability Reserve and (y) with respect to any Designated Hedging Reserves or Designated Cash Management Reserves, (i) the Administrative Agent may establish such Designated Hedging Reserves or Designated Cash Management Reserves immediately upon receiving notice in writing pursuant to Subsection 11.22 and (ii) the Administrative Agent shall increase, reduce or eliminate the amount of any existing Designated Hedging Reserve or existing Designated Cash Management Reserve immediately upon receiving written notice of any adjustment to the amount of such existing Designated Hedging Reserve or existing Designated Cash Management Reserve from the Borrower Representative pursuant to the last sentence of Subsection 11.22 (provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to establish or increase any Designated Hedging Reserve or Designated Cash Management Reserve if at the time of, and after giving effect to, such establishment or increase, Excess Availability would be less than zero). The amount of any such Availability Reserve shall have a reasonable relationship to the event, condition or other matter that is the basis for the Availability Reserve. Upon delivery of such notice pursuant to the foregoing sentence, the Administrative Agent shall be available at mutually agreed and reasonable times upon request of the applicable Borrower to discuss the proposed Availability Reserve, and any applicable Borrower may take

102 such action as may be required so that the event, condition or matter that is the basis for such Availability Reserve or increase no longer exists, in a manner and to the extent reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in the exercise of its Permitted Discretion. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Availability Reserves shall not duplicate (i) eligibility criteria contained in the definition of “Eligible Accounts”, “Eligible Credit Card Receivables”, “Eligible Intellectual Property” or “Eligible Inventory” and vice versa, or (ii) reserves or criteria deducted in computing the value of Eligible Inventory (based on cost and quantity) and vice versa. (c) In the event the Borrowers are unable to comply with (i) the borrowing base limitations set forth in Subsection 2.1(a) or (ii) the conditions precedent to the making of Revolving Credit Loans or the issuance of Letters of Credit set forth in Article 6, the Lenders authorize the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, to make Revolving Credit Loans to the Borrowers, which may only be made as ABR Loans (each, an “Agent Advance”) for a period commencing on the date the Administrative Agent first receives a notice of Borrowing requesting an Agent Advance until the earliest of (i) the 30th Business Day after such date, (ii) the date the respective Borrowers or Borrower is again able to comply with the Borrowing Base limitations set forth in Subsection 2.1(a) and the conditions precedent to the making of Revolving Credit Loans and issuance of Letters of Credit set forth in Article 6, or obtains an amendment or waiver with respect thereto and (iii) the date the Required Lenders instruct the Administrative Agent to cease making Agent Advances (in each case, the “Agent Advance Period”). The Administrative Agent shall not make any Agent Advance to the extent that at such time the amount of such Agent Advance (A) when added to the aggregate outstanding amount of all other Agent Advances made to the Borrowers at such time, would exceed 10.0% of the Borrowing Base at such time (based on the Borrowing Base Certificate last delivered) or (B) when added to the Aggregate Lender Exposure as then in effect (immediately prior to the incurrence of such Agent Advance), would exceed the aggregate Commitments at such time. It is understood and agreed that, subject to the requirements set forth above, Agent Advances may be made by the Administrative Agent in its discretion to the extent the Administrative Agent deems such Agent Advances necessary or desirable (x) to preserve and protect the applicable Collateral, or any portion thereof, (y) to enhance the likelihood of, or maximize the amount of, repayment of the Loans and other obligations of the Loan Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents or (z) to pay any other amount chargeable to or required to be paid by the Borrowers pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including payments of reimbursable expenses and other sums payable under the Loan Documents, and that the Borrowers shall have no right to require that any Agent Advances be made. (d) Each Borrower agrees that, upon the request to the Administrative Agent by any Revolving Credit Lender made on or prior to the Closing Date or in connection with any assignment pursuant to Subsection 11.6(b), in order to evidence such Lender’s Revolving Credit Loans, such Borrower will execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note substantially in the form of Exhibit A-1 hereto (each, as amended, restated, supplemented, replaced or otherwise modified from time to time, a “Revolving Credit Note”), with appropriate insertions as to payee, date and principal amount, payable to such Lender and in a principal amount equal to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Revolving Credit Loans made by such Revolving Credit Lender to such Borrower. Each Revolving Credit Note shall (i) be dated the Closing Date, (ii) be stated to

103 mature on the Termination Date and (iii) provide for the payment of interest in accordance with Subsection 4.1. 2.2. Procedure for Revolving Credit Borrowing. Each of the Borrowers may borrow under the Commitments on the Closing Date and the U.S. Borrower and any Subsidiary Borrower (or any of their permitted successors hereunder) may borrow under the Commitments hereunder on any Business Day after the Closing Date during the Commitment Period, provided that the Borrower Representative shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable (in the case of any notice except notice with respect to the initial Extension of Credit hereunder, which shall be irrevocable after the funding) notice in substantially the form of Exhibit J-1 hereto or in such other form as may be agreed between the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent (each, a “Borrowing Request”) (which Borrowing Request must be received by the Administrative Agent prior to (i) 11:00 a.m., three Business Days prior to the requested date of any borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term Benchmark Loans (excluding any Term Benchmark Loans denominated in Euros or Pounds Sterling) or of any conversion of Term Benchmark Loans to ABR Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans, as applicable, (ii) 11:00 a.m., five Business Days prior to the requested date of any borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of RFR Loans (excluding any RFR Loans denominated in Euros or Pounds Sterling), (iii) 12:00 p.m., three Business Days prior to the requested date of any borrowing of Term Benchmark Loans denominated in Euros, (iv) 12:00 p.m., five RFR Business Days prior to the requested date of any borrowing of RFR Loans denominated in Pounds Sterling, (v) 11:00 a.m., on the Business Day of the requested date of any borrowing of ABR Loans, (vi) 11:00 a.m., one Business Day prior to the requested date of any borrowing of Canadian Prime Rate Loans and (vii) four Business Days (or five Business Days in the case of a Special Notice Currency) prior to the requested date of any Borrowing or continuation of Term Benchmark Loans or RFR Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies. Each Borrowing Request in respect of U.S. Dollar Facility Revolving Loans by a Borrower pursuant to this Subsection 2.2 must be appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the U.S. Borrower. Each Borrowing Request in respect of Multicurrency Sub-Facility Revolving Loans by the applicable Borrower pursuant to this Subsection 2.2 must be appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the applicable Borrower. Each borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term Benchmark Loans or RFR Loans denominated in Dollars or Canadian Dollars shall be in an amount equal to $1,000,000 or C$1,000,000, as applicable, or a whole multiple of $500,000 or C$500,000, as applicable, in excess thereof. Each borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term Benchmark Loans or RFR Loans, as applicable, denominated in Euros, Pounds Sterling or an Alternative Currency shall be in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 of such equivalent in excess thereof. Except as provided in Subsections 2.2(c) and 2.4(b), (i) each borrowing of or conversion to ABR Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans (other than Swingline Loans) shall be in a principal amount of $200,000 or C$200,000, as applicable, or a whole multiple of $100,000 or C$100,000, as applicable, in excess thereof, and (ii) each borrowing of or conversion to Overnight Rate Loans (other than Swingline Loans) shall be in a principal amount of the Dollar Equivalent, as applicable, of $200,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 of such equivalent in excess thereof. If any Borrower fails to specify a Type of U.S. Dollar Facility Revolving Loan in a Borrowing Request or if any Borrower fails to give a timely notice requesting a conversion or continuation, then the U.S. Dollar Facility Revolving Loan, shall be made as, or converted to, an ABR Loan. If any Borrower fails to specify a Type of Multicurrency Sub-Facility Revolving Loan in a Borrowing Request or if any Borrower fails to give a timely notice requesting a conversion or continuation, then the

104 Multicurrency Sub-Facility Revolving Loan shall be made as, or converted to, a Canadian Prime Rate Loan (if such Loan is denominated in Canadian Dollars) or an Overnight Rate Loan (if such Loan is denominated in Euros or Pounds Sterling); provided, however, that in the case of a failure to timely request a continuation of Multicurrency Sub-Facility Revolving Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, such Loans shall be continued as Term Benchmark Loans in their original currency with an Interest Period of one month. Any such automatic conversion to ABR Loans, Canadian Prime Rate Loans or Overnight Rate Loans shall be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the applicable Term Benchmark Loans. If a Borrower requests a borrowing of, conversion to, or continuation of Term Benchmark Loans in any such Borrowing Request, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month. 2.3. Termination or Reduction of Commitments. The Borrower Representative (on behalf of itself and each other applicable Borrower) shall have the right, upon not less than three Business Days’ (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion) notice to the Administrative Agent (who will promptly notify the Lenders), to terminate the Commitments, or, from time to time, to reduce the amount of the Commitments; provided that no such termination or reduction shall be permitted if, after giving effect thereto and to any prepayments of the Revolving Credit Loans and Swingline Loans made on the effective date thereof, the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans and Swingline Loans then outstanding, when added to the sum of the then outstanding L/C Obligations, would exceed the Commitments then in effect and provided, further, that any such notice of termination delivered by the Borrower Representative may state that such notice is conditioned upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event specified therein (including the effectiveness of other credit facilities), in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower Representative (by written notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any such reduction shall be in an amount equal to $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and shall reduce permanently the applicable Commitments then in effect. 2.4. Swingline Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof: (a) U.S. Dollar Facility. The U.S. Dollar Facility Swing Line Lender agrees to make swingline loans (individually, a “U.S. Dollar Facility Swing Line Loan”; collectively, the “U.S. Dollar Facility Swing Line Loans”) to any of the Borrowers from time to time during the Commitment Period in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed, together with all then outstanding Multicurrency Sub-Facility Swing Line Loans, the Dollar Equivalent of $50,000,000; provided that at no time may the sum of the then outstanding U.S. Dollar Facility Swing Line Loans, U.S. Dollar Facility Revolving Loans and U.S. Dollar Facility L/C Obligations exceed the lesser of (1) the Aggregate U.S. Dollar Facility Commitments then in effect and (2) the U.S. Borrowing Base then in effect (based on the Borrowing Base Certificate last delivered). U.S. Dollar Facility Swing Line Loans shall be made in minimum amounts of (x) at all times when a Dominion Event is not in existence, $100,000 and (y) at all other times, there will be no minimum amount. Amounts borrowed by any Borrower under this Subsection 2.4 may be repaid and, through but excluding the Termination Date, reborrowed. All U.S. Dollar Facility Swing Line Loans made to any Borrower shall be made in Dollars as ABR Loans, and shall not be entitled to be converted into Term SOFR Rate Loans. The Borrower Representative (on behalf of

105 itself or any other Borrower as the case may be), shall give the U.S. Dollar Facility Swing Line Lender irrevocable notice in the form a U.S. Dollar Facility Swing Line Loan Notice (which notice must be received by the U.S. Dollar Facility Swing Line Lender prior to 1:00 P.M., New York City time, on the requested Borrowing Date) specifying (1) the identity of a Borrower, (2) the amount of the requested U.S. Dollar Facility Swing Line Loan and (3) that the Borrowing is to be of ABR Loans. The proceeds of the U.S. Dollar Facility Swing Line Loans will be made available by the U.S. Dollar Facility Swing Line Lender to the Borrower identified in such notice at an office of the U.S. Dollar Facility Swing Line Lender by crediting the account of such Borrower at such office with such proceeds in Dollars. (b) Multicurrency Sub-Facility. The Multicurrency Sub-Facility Swing Line Lender agrees to make swingline loans (individually, a “Multicurrency Sub-Facility Swing Line Loan”; collectively, the “Multicurrency Sub-Facility Swing Line Loans”) to any of the Borrowers from time to time during the Commitment Period in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed, together with all U.S. Dollar Facility Swing Line Loans then outstanding, the Dollar Equivalent of $50,000,000; provided that at no time may the sum of the then outstanding Multicurrency Sub-Facility Swing Line Loans, Multicurrency Sub-Facility Revolving Loans and Multicurrency Sub-Facility L/C Obligations exceed the lesser of (1) the Aggregate Multicurrency Sub-Facility Commitments then in effect and (2) the Borrowing Base then in effect (based on the Borrowing Base Certificate last delivered). Multicurrency Sub-Facility Swing Line Loans shall be made in minimum amounts of (x) at all times when a Dominion Event is not in existence, $100,000 and (y) at all other times, there will be no minimum amount. Amounts borrowed by any Borrower under this Subsection 2.4 may be repaid and, through but excluding the Termination Date, reborrowed. Each Multicurrency Sub-Facility Swing Line Loan denominated in Canadian Dollars shall be a Canadian Prime Rate Loan. Each Multicurrency Sub- Facility Swing Line Loan denominated in Euros shall be a EURIBOR Loan. Each Multicurrency Sub-Facility Swing Line Loan denominated in Pounds Sterling shall be an RFR Loan. The Borrower Representative (on behalf of itself or any other Borrower as the case may be), shall give the Multicurrency Sub-Facility Swing Line Lender irrevocable notice in the form of a Multicurrency Sub-Facility Swing Line Loan Notice (which notice must be received by the Multicurrency Sub-Facility Swing Line Lender prior to 1:00 P.M., New York City time, on the requested Borrowing Date) specifying (1) the identity of a Borrower, (2) the amount and currency of the requested Multicurrency Sub-Facility Swing Line Loan and (3) the applicable interest rate of the Borrowing. The proceeds of the Multicurrency Sub-Facility Swing Line Loans will be made available by the Multicurrency Sub-Facility Swing Line Lender to the Borrower identified in such notice at an office of the Multicurrency Sub-Facility Swing Line Lender by crediting the account of such Borrower at such office with such proceeds in Dollars, Canadian Dollars, Euros or Pounds Sterling, as applicable. (c) Each of the Borrowers agrees that, upon the request to the Administrative Agent by the Swingline Lender made on or prior to the Closing Date or in connection with any assignment pursuant to Subsection 11.6(b), in order to evidence the U.S. Dollar Facility Swing Line Loans or Multicurrency Sub-Facility Swing Line Loans, as applicable, such Borrower will execute and deliver to the Swingline Lender a promissory note substantially in the form of Exhibit A-2 hereto, as applicable, with appropriate insertions (as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented, replaced or otherwise modified from time to time, each a “Swingline Note”), payable to the Swingline Lender and representing the obligation of such Borrower to pay

106 the amount of the Swingline Commitment or, if less, the unpaid principal amount of the Swingline Loans made to such Borrower, with interest thereon as prescribed in Subsection 4.1. The Swingline Note shall (i) be dated the Closing Date, (ii) be stated to mature on the Termination Date and (iii) provide for the payment of interest in accordance with Subsection 4.1. (d) The Swingline Lender, at any time in its sole and absolute discretion may, and, at any time as there shall be a Swingline Loan outstanding for more than five Business Days, the Swingline Lender shall, on behalf of the Borrower to which the Swingline Loan has been made (which hereby irrevocably directs and authorizes such Swingline Lender to act on its behalf), request (provided that such request shall be deemed to have been automatically made upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under Subsection 9.1(f)) each Lender, including the Swingline Lender, to make a Revolving Credit Loan as an ABR Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the principal amount of all Swingline Loans made in Dollars for the applicable Swingline Loans denominated in Dollars, an RFR Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the principal amount of all Swingline Loans made in Pounds Sterling for the applicable Swingline Loans denominated in Pounds Sterling, an RFR Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the principal amount of all Swingline Loans made in Euros for the applicable Swingline Loans denominated in Euros and a Canadian Prime Rate Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the principal amount of all Swingline Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars for the applicable Swingline Loan is denominated in Canadian Dollars (each, a “Mandatory Revolving Credit Loan Borrowing”) in an amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the principal amount of all of the Swingline Loans (collectively, the “Refunded Swingline Loans”) outstanding on the date such notice is given; provided that the provisions of this Subsection 2.4 shall not affect the obligations of any Borrower to prepay Swingline Loans in accordance with the provisions of Subsection 4.4. Unless the Commitments shall have expired or terminated (in which event the procedures of clause (d) of this Subsection 2.4 shall apply), each Lender hereby agrees to make the proceeds of its Revolving Credit Loan (including any Term SOFR Rate Loan) available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender at the office of the Administrative Agent prior to 11:00 A.M., New York City time, in funds immediately available on the Business Day next succeeding the date such notice is given notwithstanding (i) that the amount of the Mandatory Revolving Credit Loan Borrowing may not comply with the minimum amount for Revolving Credit Loans otherwise required hereunder, (ii) whether any conditions specified in Article 6 are then satisfied, (iii) whether a Default or an Event of Default then exists, (iv) the date of such Mandatory Revolving Credit Loan Borrowing and (v) the amount of the Commitment of such, or any other, Lender at such time. The proceeds of such Revolving Credit Loans shall be immediately applied to repay the Refunded Swingline Loans. (e) If the Commitments shall expire or terminate at any time while Swingline Loans are outstanding, each Lender shall, at the option of the Swingline Lender, exercised reasonably, either (i) notwithstanding the expiration or termination of the Commitments, make a Loan as an ABR Loan (which Revolving Credit Loan shall be deemed a “Revolving Credit Loan” for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents) or (ii) purchase an undivided participating interest in such Swingline Loans, in either case in an amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage determined on the date of, and immediately prior to, expiration or termination of the Commitments of the aggregate principal amount of such Swingline Loans; provided that in the event that any Mandatory Revolving Credit Loan Borrowing cannot for any

107 reason be made on the date otherwise required above (including as a result of the commencement of a proceeding under any domestic or foreign bankruptcy, reorganization, dissolution, insolvency, receivership, administration or liquidation or similar law with respect to any Borrower), then each Lender hereby agrees that it shall forthwith purchase (as of the date the Mandatory Revolving Credit Loan Borrowing would otherwise have occurred, but adjusted for any payments received from such Borrower on or after such date and prior to such purchase) from the Swingline Lender such participations in such outstanding Swingline Loans as shall be necessary to cause such Lenders to share in such Swingline Loans ratably based upon their respective Commitment Percentages, provided, further, that (x) all interest payable on the Swingline Loans shall be for the account of the Swingline Lender until the date as of which the respective participation is required to be purchased and, to the extent attributable to the purchased participation, shall be payable to the participant from and after such date and (y) at the time any purchase of participations pursuant to this sentence is actually made, the purchasing Lender shall be required to pay the Swingline Lender interest on the principal amount of the participation purchased for each day from and including the day upon which the Mandatory Revolving Credit Loan Borrowing would otherwise have occurred to but excluding the date of payment for such participation, at the rate otherwise applicable to Revolving Credit Loans made as ABR Loans. Each Lender will make the proceeds of any Revolving Credit Loan made pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender at the office of the Administrative Agent prior to 11:00 A.M., New York City time, in Dollars in funds immediately available on the Business Day next succeeding the date on which the Commitments expire or terminate. The proceeds of such Revolving Credit Loans shall be immediately applied to repay the Swingline Loans outstanding on the date of termination or expiration of the Commitments. In the event that the Lenders purchase undivided participating interests pursuant to the first sentence of this clause (d), each Lender shall immediately transfer to the Swingline Lender, in Dollars in immediately available funds, the amount of its participation and upon receipt thereof the Swingline Lender will deliver to such Lender a Swingline Loan Participation Certificate dated the date of receipt of such funds and in such amount. (f) Whenever, at any time after the Swingline Lender has received from any Lender such Lender’s participating interest in a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender receives any payment on account thereof (whether directly from a Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Collateral applied thereto by the Swingline Lender), or any payment of interest on account thereof, the Swingline Lender will, if such payment is received prior to 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on a Business Day, distribute to such Lender its pro rata share thereof prior to the end of such Business Day and otherwise, the Swingline Lender will distribute such payment on the next succeeding Business Day (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s participating interest was outstanding and funded); provided, however, that in the event that such payment received by the Swingline Lender is required to be returned, such Lender will return to the Swingline Lender any portion thereof previously distributed by the Swingline Lender to it. (g) Each Lender’s obligation to make the Revolving Credit Loans and to purchase participating interests with respect to Swingline Loans in accordance with Subsections 2.4(c) and 2.4(d) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Lender or any of the Borrowers may have against the Swingline Lender, any of the Borrowers or

108 any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default; (iii) any adverse change in condition (financial or otherwise) of any of the Borrowers; (iv) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by any of the Borrowers, any other Loan Party or any other Lender; (v) any inability of any of the Borrowers to satisfy the conditions precedent to borrowing set forth in this Agreement on the date upon which such Revolving Credit Loan is to be made or participating interest is to be purchased or (vi) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. 2.5. Repayment of Loans. (a) Each Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent in Dollars, Canadian Dollars, Euros, Pounds Sterling or an Alternative Currency, as applicable, for the account of: (i) each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Credit Loan of such Lender made to such Borrower, on the Termination Date (or such earlier date on which the Revolving Credit Loans become due and payable pursuant to Article 9); and (ii) the Swingline Lender, the then unpaid principal amount of the Swingline Loans made to such Borrower, on the Termination Date (or such earlier date on which the Swingline Loans become due and payable pursuant to Article 9). Each Borrower hereby further agrees to pay interest (which payments shall be in Dollars, Canadian Dollars, Euros, Pounds Sterling or an Alternative Currency, as applicable) on the unpaid principal amount of such Loans from time to time outstanding from the date hereof until payment in full thereof at the rates per annum, and on the dates, set forth in Subsection 4.1. (b) Each Lender (including the Swingline Lender) shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing indebtedness of each of the Borrowers to such Lender resulting from each Loan of such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement. (c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain the Register pursuant to Subsection 11.6(b), and a subaccount therein for each Lender, in which shall be recorded (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Type thereof, the Borrowers to which such Loan is made, each Interest Period, if any, applicable thereto and whether such Loans are Revolving Credit Loans or Swingline Loans, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each of the Borrowers to each applicable Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from each of the Borrowers and each applicable Lender’s share thereof. (d) The entries made in the Register and the accounts of each Lender maintained pursuant to Subsection 2.5(c) shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of each of the Borrowers therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain the Register or any such account, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of any Borrower to repay (with applicable interest) the Loans made to such Borrower by such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 2.6. Incremental Facility.

109 (a) So long as no Specified Default exists or would arise therefrom, the Borrower Representative shall have the right, at any time and from time to time after the Closing Date, to request an increase of the aggregate amount of the then outstanding Commitments (the “Incremental Revolving Commitments” or the “Incremental Facilities” and each, an “Incremental Facility”). Notwithstanding anything to contrary herein, the principal amount of any Incremental Facility shall not exceed the Available Incremental Amount at such time; provided that Incremental Revolving Commitments not to exceed $75,000,000 may be provided under a first-in last-out facility (an “Incremental FILO Facility”) subject to the terms and conditions of this Subsection 2.6. The Borrower Representative may seek to obtain Incremental Facilities from existing Lenders or other Persons, as applicable (the “Incremental Facility Increase,” and each Person extending, or Lender extending, Incremental Facilities, each an “Additional Lender”), provided, however, that (i) no Lender shall be obligated to provide an Incremental Facility Increase as a result of any such request by the Borrower Representative, and (ii) any Additional Lender which is not an existing Lender shall be subject to the approval of, the Administrative Agent and, in the case of any Incremental Revolving Commitments, the Swingline Lender, each Issuing Lender and the Borrowers (each such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Each Incremental Facility Increase shall be in a minimum aggregate amount of at least $15,000,000 and in integral multiples of $5,000,000 in excess thereof. Any Incremental Facility Increase may be denominated in Dollars, Canadian Dollars, Euros, Pounds Sterling or an Alternative Currency. (b) Any Incremental Revolving Commitments (including those provided under an Incremental FILO Facility) (A) shall be guaranteed by the Guarantors and shall rank pari passu in right of (x) priority with respect to the Collateral and (y) payment with respect to the Obligations in respect of the Commitments in effect prior to the applicable Incremental Revolving Commitment Effective Date (other than as set forth in clause (l) of this Subsection 2.6 with respect to an Incremental FILO Facility) and (B) shall be on terms and pursuant to the documentation applicable to the Tranche of the existing Commitments they are increasing; provided that the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate and Applicable Margin relating to the Incremental Revolving Commitments may exceed the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate and Applicable Margin relating to the Tranche of existing Commitments that they are increasing in effect prior to the Incremental Revolving Commitment Effective Date so long as the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate and Applicable Margins relating to all Revolving Credit Loans of such Tranche shall be adjusted to be equal to the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate and Applicable Margin payable to the Lenders providing such Incremental Revolving Commitments. (c) No Incremental Facility Increase shall become effective unless and until each of the following conditions have been satisfied: (i) The Borrower Representative, the Administrative Agent, and any Additional Lender shall have executed and delivered a joinder to the Loan Documents (“Lender Joinder Agreement”) in substantially the form of Exhibit L hereto or in such other form as may be appropriate in the opinion of the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent;

110 (ii) The Borrowers shall have paid such fees and other compensation to the Additional Lenders as the Borrower Representative and such Additional Lenders shall agree; (iii) The Borrower Representative shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders an opinion or opinions, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent from counsel to the Borrower Representative reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and dated such date; (iv) A Revolving Credit Note (to the extent requested) will be issued at the applicable Borrowers’ expense, to each such Additional Lender, to be in conformity with requirements of Subsection 2.1(d) (with appropriate modification) to the extent necessary to reflect the new Commitment of each Additional Lender; (v) The Borrower Representative shall deliver a certificate certifying that (A) the representations and warranties made by the U.S. Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries contained herein and in the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects (or, if qualified by materiality, in all respects) on and as of the applicable Incremental Revolving Commitment Effective Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct in all material respects (or, if qualified by materiality, in all respects) as of such earlier date, and (B) no Specified Default has occurred and is continuing; and (vi) The applicable Borrowers and Additional Lenders shall have delivered such other instruments, documents and agreements as the Administrative Agent may reasonably have requested in order to effectuate the documentation of the foregoing. (d) (i) In the case of any Incremental Facility Increase constituting Incremental Revolving Commitments, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of such Incremental Facility Increase (with each date of such effectiveness being referred to herein as an “Incremental Revolving Commitment Effective Date”), and at such time (A) the Commitments under, and for all purposes of, this Agreement shall be increased by the aggregate amount of such Incremental Revolving Commitments, (B) Schedule A shall be deemed modified, without further action, to reflect the revised Commitments and Commitment Percentages of the Lenders and (C) this Agreement shall be deemed amended, without further action, to the extent necessary to reflect any such Incremental Revolving Commitments. (e) In the case of any Incremental Facility Increase, the Administrative Agent, the Additional Lenders and the Borrowers agree to enter into any amendment required to incorporate the addition of the Incremental Facilities (including any Incremental FILO Facility), the pricing of the Incremental Facilities, the maturity date of the Incremental Facilities and such other amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers in connection therewith. The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into such amendments. (f) In connection with the Incremental Facility Increases hereunder, the Lenders and the Borrowers agree that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement,

111 (i) the applicable Borrowers shall, in coordination with the Administrative Agent, (x) repay applicable outstanding Revolving Credit Loans under the applicable Tranche of certain Lenders, and obtain applicable Revolving Credit Loans under the applicable Tranche from certain other Lenders (including the Additional Lenders), or (y) take such other actions as reasonably may be required by the Administrative Agent to the extent necessary so that the Lenders effectively participate in each of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans under the applicable Tranche, as applicable, pro rata on the basis of their Commitment Percentages (determined after giving effect to any increase in the Commitments pursuant to this Subsection 2.6), and (ii) the applicable Borrowers shall pay to the Lenders any costs of the type referred to in Subsection 4.12 in connection with any repayment and/or Revolving Credit Loans required pursuant to the preceding clause (i). Without limiting the obligations of the Borrowers provided for in this Subsection 2.6, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree that they will use commercially reasonable efforts to attempt to minimize the costs of the type referred to in Subsection 4.12 which the Borrowers would otherwise incur in connection with the implementation of an increase in the Commitments. (g) The Incremental FILO Facility may have a separate borrowing base against assets of a type included in the Aggregate Borrowing Base, as agreed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the lenders providing the Incremental FILO Facility. To the extent the Incremental FILO Facility is a revolving facility and there are at any time after the effectiveness of such facility, commitments thereunder to be borrowed against, any Borrowing under this Agreement shall be required to be made first under the Incremental FILO Facility until there is no longer any borrowing availability thereunder (including to the extent that the amount of any borrowing availability is capped by the size of a borrowing base) prior to being permitted be made under the existing Commitments. There shall be no more than one tranche of Incremental FILO Facility outstanding under this Agreement at any time. The Incremental FILO Facility shall provide that all proceeds from the liquidation or other realization of the Collateral shall not be applied to obligations under the Incremental FILO Facility prior to “seventh” priority as set forth in Subsection 10.15. To the extent the Incremental FILO Facility utilizes advance rates, no advance rates applicable to such Incremental FILO Facility, when aggregated with the applicable advance rates set forth in the definition of “U.S. Borrowing Base” or “Canadian Borrowing Base” hereunder, shall be greater than 100%. No Loan Party or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries may prepay loans under the Incremental FILO Facility or terminate or reduce the commitments in respect of the Incremental FILO Facility at any time that other Loans or Commitments and/or reimbursement obligations hereunder are outstanding. ARTICLE 3 LETTERS OF CREDIT 3.1. L/C Commitment. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Issuing Lender, in reliance on the agreements of the other Revolving Credit Lenders set forth in Subsection 3.4(a), agrees to issue (or deemed to issue, in the case of the Existing Letters of Credit) letters of credit (the Existing Letters of Credit and letters of credit issued on and after the Closing Date pursuant to this Article 3, each a “U.S. Dollar Facility Letter of Credit” or “Multicurrency Sub-Facility Letter of Credit”, as applicable, and collectively, the “Letters of Credit” or “L/C”) for the account of the applicable

112 Borrower or (if required by the applicable Issuing Lender, so long as a Borrower is a co-applicant and jointly and severally liable thereunder) any Restricted Subsidiary on any Business Day during the Commitment Period but in no event later than the fifth day prior to the Termination Date in such form as may be approved from time to time by the Issuing Lender; provided that no Letter of Credit shall be issued if, after giving effect to such issuance, (i) the aggregate Extensions of Credit to the Borrowers would exceed the applicable limitations set forth in Subsection 2.1, (ii) the U.S. Dollar Facility L/C Obligations in respect of U.S. Dollar Facility Letters of Credit would exceed, together with the Multicurrency Sub-Facility L/C Obligations in respect of Multicurrency Sub- Facility Letters of Credit, the Dollar Equivalent of $100,000,000, (iii) the Multicurrency Sub- Facility L/C Obligations in respect of Multicurrency Sub-Facility Letter of Credit would exceed, the Dollar Equivalent of Multicurrency Sub-Facility Letter of Credit Sublimit, (iv) Aggregate Outstanding Credit of all the Revolving Credit Lenders would exceed either (A) the Commitments of all the Revolving Credit Lenders then in effect or (B) Availability, (v) the outstanding L/C Exposure in respect of all Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender would exceed such Issuing Lender’s L/C Commitment or (vi) the outstanding L/C Exposure in respect of all Multicurrency Sub-Facility Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender would exceed such Issuing Lender’s Multicurrency Sub-Facility L/C Commitment. (b) Each Letter of Credit shall be denominated in Dollars, Canadian Dollars, Euros, Pounds Sterling or an Alternative Currency and shall be either (i) a standby letter of credit issued to support obligations of the U.S. Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Canadian Borrower), contingent or otherwise, which finance or otherwise arise in connection with the working capital and business needs of the U.S. Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries, and for general corporate purposes, of the U.S. Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, or (ii) a commercial letter of credit in respect of the purchase of goods or services by the U.S. Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, and unless otherwise agreed by the applicable Issuing Lender and, in the case of clause (B) below, the Administrative Agent, expire no later than the earlier of (A) one year after its date of issuance and (B) the fifth Business Day prior to the Termination Date. (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Subsection 3.1(b), if the Borrower Representative so requests in any L/C Request, the applicable Issuing Lender may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension L/C”); provided that any such Auto-Extension L/C must permit the applicable Issuing Lender to prevent any such extension at least once in each 12-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day in each such 12-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the applicable Issuing Lender, the applicable Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to such Issuing Lender for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension L/C has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the applicable Issuing Lender to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an extended expiry date not later than the earlier of (i) one year from the then-current expiration date at the time of such extension and (ii) the fifth Business Day prior to the Termination Date; provided that such Issuing Lender shall have no obligation to permit any such extension if (x) such Issuing Lender has determined that it would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its renewed form under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of Subsection 3.2(c) or otherwise), or (y) it has received notice on or before the day

113 that is two Business Days before the date which has been agreed upon pursuant to the proviso of the first sentence of this clause (c), (1) from the Administrative Agent that any Lender directly affected thereby has elected not to permit such extension or (2) from the Administrative Agent or any Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Subsection 6.2 are not then satisfied, or that the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate this Subsection 3.1. (d) Each Letter of Credit issued by an Issuing Lender shall be deemed to constitute a utilization of the Commitments, and shall be participated in (as more fully described in the following Subsection 3.4) by the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages. All Letters of Credit issued hereunder shall be issued for the account of the applicable Borrower or (if required by the applicable Issuing Lender, so long as a Borrower is a co-applicant and jointly and severally liable thereunder) any Subsidiary. (e) Unless otherwise agreed by the applicable Issuing Lender and the Borrower Representative, each Letter of Credit shall be governed by, and shall be construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, and to the extent not prohibited by such laws, the ISP shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit and the Uniform Customs shall apply to each commercial Letter of Credit. The ISP shall not in any event apply to this Agreement. 3.2. Procedure for Issuance of Letters of Credit. (a) Any Borrower may, from time to time during the Commitment Period but in no event later than the 30th day prior to the Termination Date, request that an Issuing Lender issue a Letter of Credit by delivering to such Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent at its address for notices specified herein, an L/C Request therefor in the form of Exhibit J-2 hereto (completed to the reasonable satisfaction of such Issuing Lender), and such other certificates, documents and other papers and information as such Issuing Lender may reasonably request. Upon receipt of any L/C Request, such Issuing Lender will process such L/C Request and the certificates, documents and other papers and information delivered to it in connection therewith in accordance with its customary procedures and shall promptly issue the Letter of Credit requested thereby (but in no event shall an Issuing Lender be required, unless otherwise agreed to by such Issuing Lender, to issue any Letter of Credit earlier than five Business Days after its receipt of the L/C Request therefor and all such other certificates, documents and other papers and information relating thereto) by issuing the original of such Letter of Credit to the beneficiary thereof or as otherwise may be agreed by such Issuing Lender and the applicable Borrower. The applicable Issuing Lender shall furnish a copy of such Letter of Credit to the Borrower Representative promptly following the issuance thereof. No Issuing Lender shall amend, cancel or waive presentation of any Letter of Credit, or replace any lost, mutilated or destroyed Letter of Credit, without the prior written consent of the applicable Borrower. Upon the issuance of any Letter of Credit or amendment, renewal, extension or modification to a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, who shall promptly notify each Lender, thereof, which notice shall be accompanied by a copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment, renewal, extension or modification to a Letter of Credit and the amount of such Lender’s respective participation in such Letter of Credit pursuant to Subsection 3.4. If the applicable Issuing Lender is not the same person as the Administrative Agent, on the first Business Day of each calendar month, such Issuing Lender shall provide to the Administrative Agent a

114 report listing all outstanding Letters of Credit and the amounts and beneficiaries thereof and the Administrative Agent shall promptly provide such report to each Lender. (b) The making of each request for a Letter of Credit by a Borrower shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty by such Borrower that such Letter of Credit may be issued in accordance with, and will not violate the requirements of, Subsection 3.1. Unless the respective Issuing Lender has received notice from the Required Lenders before it issues a Letter of Credit that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Subsection 6.2 are not then satisfied, or that the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate Subsection 3.1, then such Issuing Lender may issue the requested Letter of Credit for the account of the applicable Borrower or Subsidiary in accordance with such Issuing Lender’s usual and customary practices. (c) No Issuing Lender shall be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if (i) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Lender from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Requirement of Law applicable to such Issuing Lender or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any banking regulatory authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Lender shall prohibit the issuance of letters of credit generally, or (ii) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more existing (as of the date hereof) policies of such Issuing Lender consistently applied by such Issuing Lender to borrowers generally. 3.3. Fees, Commissions and Other Charges. (a) Each Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent a letter of credit commission with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender on its behalf, computed for the period from and including the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit through to the expiration date of such Letter of Credit, computed at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin then in effect for Term SOFR Rate Loans that are Revolving Credit Loans calculated based upon the actual number of days elapsed over a 360-day year, of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit, payable quarterly in arrears on each L/C Fee Payment Date with respect to such Letter of Credit and on the Termination Date or such earlier date as the Commitments shall terminate as provided herein. Such commission shall be payable to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Revolving Credit Lenders to be shared ratably among them in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages. Each Borrower shall pay to the relevant Issuing Lender with respect to each Letter of Credit (i) a fee equal to 0.125% per annum of the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit (or such other amounts as may be agreed by such Borrower and such Issuing Lender) calculated based upon the actual number of days elapsed over a 360-day year, payable quarterly in arrears on each L/C Fee Payment Date with respect to such Letter of Credit and on the Termination Date or such other date as the applicable Commitments shall terminate as provided herein and (ii) normal and customary issuance and administration costs and expenses. Such

115 commissions and fees shall be nonrefundable. Such fees and commissions shall be payable in Dollars. (b) In addition to the foregoing commissions and fees, each Borrower agrees to pay amounts necessary to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender for such normal and customary costs and expenses as are incurred or charged by such Issuing Lender in issuing, effecting payment under, amending or otherwise administering any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender within 10 days after demand therefor. (c) The Administrative Agent shall, promptly following any receipt thereof, distribute to the applicable Issuing Lender and the applicable Lenders all commissions and fees received by the Administrative Agent for their respective accounts pursuant to this Subsection 3.3. 3.4. L/C Participations. (a) By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Lender or the Lenders, each Issuing Lender hereby irrevocably grants to each Lender, and each Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Lender, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, or expiration, termination or cash collateralization of any Letter of Credit and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. All calculations of the Lenders’ Commitment Percentages shall be made from time to time by the Administrative Agent, which calculations shall be conclusive absent manifest error. (b) If the Borrowers fail to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender on the due date as provided in Subsection 3.5, such Issuing Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the applicable L/C Disbursement, the payment then due from the applicable Borrowers in respect thereof and such Lender’s Commitment Percentage thereof. Each Lender shall pay by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 P.M., New York City time, on such date (or, if such Lender shall have received such notice later than 12:00 P.M., New York City time, on any day, not later than 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on the next succeeding Business Day), the Dollar Equivalent of an amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the unreimbursed L/C Disbursement in the same manner as provided in Subsection 2.2 with respect to Loans made by such Lender, and the Administrative Agent will promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Lender the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. The Administrative Agent will promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Lender any amounts received by it from the applicable Borrowers pursuant to the above clause (a) prior to the time that any Lender makes any payment pursuant to the preceding sentence and any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent from the applicable Borrowers thereafter will be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Lender that shall have made such payments and to such Issuing Lender, as appropriate.

116 (c) If any Lender shall not have made its Commitment Percentage of such L/C Disbursement available to the Administrative Agent as provided above, each such Lender and each Borrower severally agrees to pay interest on such amount, for each day from and including the date such amount is required to be paid in accordance with the foregoing to but excluding the date such amount is paid, to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender at (i) in the case of such Borrower, the rate per annum set forth in Subsection 3.5(b) and (ii) in the case of such Lender, a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules or practices on interbank compensation. 3.5. Reimbursement Obligation of the Borrowers. (a) Each Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower Representative of any presentation of a draft under any Letter of Credit. Each Borrower hereby agrees to reimburse each Issuing Lender, upon receipt by the Borrower Representative of notice from the applicable Issuing Lender of the date and the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of a draft presented under any Letter of Credit issued on its behalf and paid by such Issuing Lender (an “L/C Disbursement”), for the amount of such draft so paid and any taxes, fees, charges or other costs or expenses reasonably incurred by such Issuing Lender in connection with such payment. Each such payment shall be made to the applicable Issuing Lender, at its address for notices specified herein, in Dollars in immediately available funds, no later than 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the date which is one Business Day (or, if the Facility is fully drawn on such date and the applicable Borrower does not have sufficient cash on hand to make such payment, two Business Days) after the date on which the Borrower Representative receives such notice, if received prior to 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on a Business Day and otherwise, no later than 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the next succeeding Business Day; provided that the applicable Borrowers may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Subsection 2.2 that such payment be financed with ABR Loans or Swingline Loans in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the applicable Borrowers’ obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Loans or Swingline Loans. In the case of any such reimbursement in Dollars with respect to a Letter of Credit denominated in Canadian Dollars, the applicable Issuing Lender shall notify the Borrower Representative of the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of the draft so paid promptly following determination thereof. (b) Interest shall be payable on any and all amounts remaining unpaid by the Borrowers under this Subsection 3.5(b) from the date the draft presented under the affected Letter of Credit is paid to the date on which the applicable Borrower is required to pay such amounts pursuant to clause (a) above at the rate which would then be payable on any outstanding ABR Loans that are Revolving Credit Loans and thereafter until payment in full at the rate which would be payable on any outstanding ABR Loans that are Revolving Credit Loans which were then overdue. 3.6. Obligations Absolute. The Reimbursement Obligations of Borrowers as provided in Subsection 3.5 shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid and 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 a Letter of Credit being proved to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or

117 any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; (iii) payment by any Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that fails to comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Article 3, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the obligations of any Borrower hereunder; (v) the fact that a Default shall have occurred and be continuing; or (vi) any material adverse change in the business, property, results of operations, prospects or condition, financial or otherwise, of the U.S. Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries. None of the Agents, the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders or any of their affiliates 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 Issuing Lenders; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse any Issuing Lender from liability to the Borrowers to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrowers to the extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law) suffered by the Borrowers that are caused by such Issuing Lender’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 or willful misconduct on the part of the applicable Issuing Lender (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), such Issuing Lender 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 a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Lender 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. 3.7. L/C Disbursements. The applicable Issuing Lender shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. Such Issuing Lender shall promptly give written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Lender has made or will make an L/C Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve Borrower of its Reimbursement Obligation to such Issuing Lender and the Lenders with respect to any such L/C Disbursement (other than with respect to the timing of such Reimbursement Obligation set forth in Subsection 3.5). 3.8. L/C Request. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any L/C Request or other application or agreement submitted by any Borrower or any Subsidiary, to, or entered into by any Borrower or any Subsidiary with, any Issuing Lender relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control.

118 3.9. Cash Collateralization. If the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, the Borrowers shall then deposit on terms and in accounts satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Collateral Agent and for the benefit of the applicable Lenders, an amount in cash equal to the L/C Obligations as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon. Funds so deposited shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender for L/C Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be applied to satisfy other Obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement. 3.10. Additional Issuing Lenders. The Borrower Representative may, at any time and from time to time with the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and such Lender, designate one or more additional Lenders to act as an issuing lender under the terms of this Agreement. Any Lender designated as an issuing lender pursuant to this Subsection 3.10 shall be deemed to be an “Issuing Lender” (in addition to being a Lender) in respect of Letters of Credit issued or to be issued by such Lender, and, with respect to such Letters of Credit, such term shall thereafter apply to the other Issuing Lender or Issuing Lenders and such Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such additional Issuing Lender. If at any time there is more than one Issuing Lender hereunder, the Borrower Representative may, in its discretion, select which Issuing Lender is to issue any particular Letter of Credit. 3.11. Resignation or Removal of the Issuing Lender. Any Issuing Lender may resign as Issuing Lender hereunder at any time upon at least 30 days’ prior notice to the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative. Any Issuing Lender may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower Representative, each Agent, the replaced Issuing Lender and the successor Issuing Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such resignation or replacement of an Issuing Lender. At the time any such resignation of an Issuing Lender shall become effective, the applicable Borrowers shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the retiring Issuing Lender pursuant to Subsection 3.3. From and after the effective date of any such resignation or replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued by it thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Lender” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Lender, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Lenders, as the context requires. After the resignation or replacement of an Issuing Lender, the retiring or replaced Issuing Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such resignation or replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

Any such notice of conversion to a Term Benchmark Loan shall specify the length of the initial Interest Period or Interest Periods therefor. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each affected Lender thereof. All or any part of outstanding Term Benchmark Loans, Canadian Prime Rate Loans, Overnight Rate Loans, RFR Loans, Term SOFR Rate Loans or ABR Loans may be converted as provided herein, provided that (i) (unless the Required Lenders otherwise consent) no Loan may be converted into a Term Benchmark Loan when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and, in the case of any Default (other than any Default under Subsection 9.1(f)), the Administrative Agent has given notice to the Borrower Representative that no such conversions

121 may be made and (ii) no Loan may be converted into a Term Benchmark Loan after the date that is one month prior to the applicable Termination Date. (b) Any Term Benchmark Loan may be continued as such upon the expiration of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto by the Borrower Representative giving notice to the Administrative Agent of the length of the next Interest Period to be applicable to such Loan, determined in accordance with the applicable provisions of the term “Interest Period” set forth in Subsection 1.1, provided that no Term Benchmark Loan may be continued as such (i) (unless the Required Lenders otherwise consent) when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and, in the case of any Default (other than any Default under Subsection 9.1(f)), the Administrative Agent has given notice to the Borrower Representative that no such continuations may be made or (ii) after the date that is one month prior to the applicable Termination Date, and provided, further, that if the Borrower Representative shall fail to give any required notice as described above in this clause (b) or if such continuation is not permitted pursuant to the preceding proviso such Loans shall be automatically converted (i) in the case of Term Benchmark Loans denominated in Dollars, to ABR Loans, and (ii) in the case of Term Benchmark Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars, to Canadian Prime Rate Loans, in each case, on the last day of such then expiring Interest Period. Upon receipt of any such notice of continuation pursuant to this Subsection 4.2(b), the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each affected Lender thereof. 4.3. Minimum Amounts; Maximum Sets. All borrowings, conversions and continuations of Loans hereunder and all selections of Interest Periods hereunder shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of the Loans comprising each Set shall be equal to the Dollar Equivalent of $500,000 or a whole multiple of Dollar Equivalent $500,000 in excess thereof and so that there shall not be more than 10 Sets at any one time outstanding. 4.4. Optional and Mandatory Prepayments. (a) Each of the Borrowers may at any time and from time to time, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, prepay the Loans made to it and the Reimbursement Obligations in respect of Letters of Credit issued for its account, in whole or in part, subject to Subsection 4.12, without premium or penalty; provided that (A) such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. (i) three Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of Term Benchmark Loans denominated in Dollars or Canadian Dollars; (ii) five RFR Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of RFR Loans denominated in Dollars or Canadian Dollars; (iii) four Business Days (or five, in the case of prepayment of Loans denominated in Special Notice Currencies) prior to any date of such prepayment of Term Benchmark Loans or RFR Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies; and (iv) on the date of prepayment of ABR Loans, Canadian Prime Rate Loans or Overnight Rate Loans; (B) any prepayment of Term Benchmark Loans not denominated in Alternative Currencies shall be in a principal amount of $1,000,000, C$1,000,000 or the Dollar Equivalent of $1,000,000, as applicable, or a whole multiple of $500,000, C$500,000 or $500,000 of such equivalent, as applicable, in excess thereof or, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding; (C) any prepayment of Term Benchmark Loans or RFR Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies shall be in a minimum Dollar Equivalent amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof or, if less, the

122 entire principal amounts outstanding; and (D) any prepayment of ABR Loans, Canadian Prime Rate Loans or Overnight Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $200,000, C$200,000 or the Dollar Equivalent or Dollar Equivalent of $200,000, as applicable, or a whole multiple of $100,000, C$100,000 or $100,000 of such equivalent, as applicable, in excess thereof or, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding. Each such notice shall be in the form of Exhibit J-1 and shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment, the Type(s) of Loans to be prepaid, and whether a U.S. Dollar Facility Revolving Loan or a Multicurrency Sub-Facility Revolving Loan is being prepaid. Upon the receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each affected Lender thereof. If any such notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall (subject to Subsection 4.4(g)) be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with any amounts payable pursuant to Subsection 4.12, with respect to the applicable Revolving Credit Loans and the Reimbursement Obligations pursuant to this Section and shall (unless the Borrower Representative otherwise directs) be applied, first, to payment of the Swingline Loans then outstanding, second, to payment of the Revolving Credit Loans then outstanding, third, to payment of any Reimbursement Obligations then outstanding, and last, to cash collateralize any outstanding L/C Obligation on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Partial prepayments pursuant to this Subsection 4.4(a) shall be in multiples of $250,000, as applicable; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any Loan may be prepaid in its entirety. (b) On any day (other than during an Agent Advance Period) on which the Dollar Equivalent of the Aggregate Lender Exposure or the unpaid balance of Extensions of Credit to, or for the account of, the Borrowers exceeds Availability at such time, the Borrowers shall prepay on such day the principal of outstanding Swingline Loans and Revolving Credit Loans in an amount equal to such excess. If, after giving effect to the prepayment of all outstanding Swingline Loans and Revolving Credit Loans, the aggregate Dollar Equivalent of the amount of the L/C Obligations exceeds the Aggregate Borrowing Base at such time (based on the Borrowing Base Certificate last delivered), the Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent on such day an amount of cash and/or Cash Equivalents equal to the amount of such excess (up to a maximum amount equal to such L/C Obligations at such time), such cash and/or Cash Equivalents to be held as security for all obligations of the Borrowers to the Issuing Lenders and the Revolving Credit Lenders hereunder in a cash collateral account to be established by, and under the sole dominion and control of, the Administrative Agent. (c) The Borrowers shall prepay all Swingline Loans then outstanding simultaneously with each borrowing by them of Revolving Credit Loans. (d) [Reserved]. (e) For avoidance of doubt, the Commitments shall not be correspondingly reduced by the amount of any prepayments of Revolving Credit Loans, payments of Reimbursement Obligations and cash collateralizations of L/C Obligations, in each case, made under Subsection 4.4(b). (f) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Subsection 4.4, if at any time any prepayment of the Loans pursuant to Subsection 4.4(a) or 4.4(b) would result, after giving effect to the procedures set forth in this Agreement, in any Borrower incurring breakage costs

123 under Subsection 4.12 as a result of Term Benchmark Loans being prepaid other than on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto, then, the relevant Borrower may, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, in its sole discretion, initially (i) deposit a portion (up to 100.0%) of the amounts that otherwise would have been paid in respect of such Term Benchmark Loans with the Administrative Agent (which deposit must be equal in amount to the amount of such Term Benchmark Loans not immediately prepaid), to be held as security for the obligations of such Borrower to make such prepayment pursuant to a cash collateral agreement to be entered into on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent with such cash collateral to be directly applied upon the first occurrence thereafter of the last day of an Interest Period with respect to such Loans (or such earlier date or dates as shall be requested by such Borrower) or (ii) make a prepayment of the Revolving Credit Loans in accordance with Subsection 4.4(a) with an amount equal to a portion (up to 100.0%) of the amounts that otherwise would have been paid in respect of such Term Benchmark Loans (which prepayment, together with any deposits pursuant to clause (i) above, must be equal in amount to the amount of such Term Benchmark Loans not immediately prepaid); provided that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, none of the Borrowers may request any Extension of Credit under the Commitments that would reduce Excess Availability to an amount that is less than the amount of such prepayment until the related portion of such Term Benchmark Loans have been prepaid upon the first occurrence thereafter of the last day of an Interest Period with respect to such Term Benchmark Loans; provided further, in the case of either clause (i) or (ii) above, such unpaid Term Benchmark Loans shall continue to bear interest in accordance with Subsection 4.1 until such unpaid Term Benchmark Loans or the related portion of such Term Benchmark Loans, as the case may be, have or has been prepaid. (g) If a notice of prepayment in connection with a repayment of all outstanding Loans is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of Commitments as contemplated by Subsection 2.3, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Subsection 2.3. (h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Subsection 4.4 may be amended (and the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into any such amendments) to the extent necessary to reflect differing amounts payable, and priorities of payments, to Lenders participating in any new classes or tranches of Loans added pursuant to Subsections 2.6. 4.5. Commitment Fees; Administrative Agent’s Fee; Other Fees. (a) Each Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender, a commitment fee for the period from and including the first day of the Commitment Period to the Termination Date, computed at the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate on the average daily amount of the Unutilized Commitment of such Revolving Credit Lender during the period for which payment is made, payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December and on the Termination Date or such earlier date as the Commitments shall terminate as provided herein, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereof.

124 (b) Each Borrower agrees to pay to the fees set forth in the Fee Letter on the payment dates set forth therein. 4.6. Computation of Interest and Fees. (a) All computations of interest for RFR Loans denominated in Pounds Sterling and ABR Loans when the Alternate Base Rate is determined by JPMCB’s “prime rate” shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All computations of interest for Canadian Prime Rate Loans, Term CORRA Loans and RFR Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year), or, in the case of interest in respect of Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies as to which market practice differs from the foregoing, in accordance with such market practice. Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, continued or converted from a Loan of another Type 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, subject to Subsection 2.5, bear interest for one day. (b) Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on each of the Borrowers and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Borrower Representative or any Lender, deliver to the Borrower Representative or such Lender a statement showing in reasonable detail the calculations used by the Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate pursuant to Subsection 4.1, excluding any ABR Loan which is based upon the Alternate Base Rate. (c) For purposes of disclosure pursuant to the Interest Act (Canada), the annual rates of interest or fees to which the rates of interest or fees provided in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (and stated herein or therein, as applicable, to be computed on the basis of 360 days or any other period of time less than a calendar year) are equivalent are the rates so determined multiplied by the actual number of days in the applicable calendar year and divided by 365 or such other period of time, respectively. The principle of deemed reinvestment of interest does not apply to any interest calculation under this Agreement and the rates of interest stipulated in this Agreement are intended to be nominal rates and not effective rates or yields. 4.7. Alternate Rate of Interest. (a) Subject to clauses (b), (c), (d), (e) and (f) of this Subsection 4.7, if: (i) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) (A) prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Term Benchmark Borrowing, that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Term SOFR Rate, the EURIBOR Rate or Term CORRA (including because the Relevant Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis), for the applicable Agreed Currency and such Interest Period or (B) at any time, that adequate and

125 reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable Daily Simple RFR, Daily Simple RFR or RFR for the applicable Agreed Currency; or (ii) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that (A) prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Term Benchmark Borrowing, the Term SOFR Rate, the EURIBOR Rate or Term CORRA for the applicable Agreed Currency and such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for the applicable Agreed Currency and such Interest Period or (B) at any time, the applicable Daily Simple RFR for the applicable Agreed Currency will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for the applicable Agreed Currency; then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrowers and the Lenders by telephone, telecopy or electronic mail as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until (x) the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrowers and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist with respect to the relevant Benchmark and (y) the Borrowers delivers a new Borrowing Request in accordance with the terms of Subsection 2.2, (A) for Loans denominated in Dollars, (1) any Borrowing Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Term Benchmark Borrowing and any Borrowing Request that requests a Term Benchmark Borrowing shall instead be deemed to be a Borrowing Request for (x) an RFR Borrowing denominated in Dollars so long as the Daily Simple RFR for Dollar Borrowings is not also the subject of Subsection 4.7(a)(i) or (ii) above or (y) an ABR Borrowing if the Daily Simple RFR for Dollar Borrowings also is the subject of Subsection 4.7(a)(i) or (ii) above and (2) any Borrowing Request that requests an RFR Borrowing shall instead be deemed to be a Borrowing Request for an ABR Borrowing, (B) for Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars, any Borrowing Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Term Benchmark Borrowing and any Borrowing Request that requests a Term Benchmark Borrowing shall instead be deemed to be a Borrowing Request for a Canadian Prime Rate Borrowing and (C) for Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, any Borrowing Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Term Benchmark Borrowing and any Borrowing Request that requests a Term Benchmark Borrowing or an RFR Borrowing, in each case, for the relevant Benchmark, shall be ineffective; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Type of Borrowings, then all other Types of Borrowings shall be permitted. Furthermore, if any Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan in any Agreed Currency is outstanding on the date of the Borrower’s receipt of the notice from the applicable Agent referred to in this Subsection 4.7(a) with respect to a Relevant Rate applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan, then until (x) the applicable Agent notifies the Borrowers and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist with respect to the relevant Benchmark and (y) the Borrowers deliver a new Borrowing Request in accordance with the terms of Subsection 2.2, (A) for Loans denominated in Dollars, (1) any Term Benchmark Loan shall on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), be converted by the applicable Agent to, and shall constitute, (x) an RFR Borrowing denominated in Dollars so long as the Daily Simple RFR for Dollar Borrowings is not also the subject of Subsection 4.7(a)(i) or (ii) above or (y) an ABR Loan if the Daily Simple

126 RFR for Dollar Borrowings also is the subject of Subsection 4.7(a)(i) or (ii) above, on such day, and (2) any RFR Loan shall on and from such day be converted by the applicable Agent to, and shall constitute an ABR Loan, (B) for Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars, any Term Benchmark Loan shall on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), be converted by the applicable Agent to, and shall constitute a Canadian Prime Rate Loan, and (C) for Loans denominated in Pounds Sterling, Euro or an Alternative Currency, (1) any Term Benchmark Loan shall, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day) bear interest at the Central Bank Rate for the applicable currency plus the CBR Spread; provided that, if the applicable Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the Central Bank Rate for the applicable currency cannot be determined, any outstanding affected Term Benchmark Loans denominated in such currency shall, at the Borrower’s election prior to such day: (A) be prepaid by the Borrowers on such day or (B) solely for the purpose of calculating the interest rate applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan, such Term Benchmark Loan denominated in such currency shall be deemed to be a Term Benchmark Loan denominated in Dollars and shall accrue interest at the same interest rate applicable to Term Benchmark Loans denominated in Dollars at such time and (2) any RFR Loan shall bear interest at the Central Bank Rate for the applicable currency plus the CBR Spread; provided that, if the applicable Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the Central Bank Rate for the applicable currency cannot be determined, any outstanding affected RFR Loans denominated in such currency, at the Borrowers’ election, shall either (A) be converted into ABR Loans denominated in Dollars (in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such currency) immediately or (B) be prepaid in full immediately. (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (1) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the fifth Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders and the Borrower Representative without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document (other than as set forth in the definition of “Benchmark Replacement”) so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, 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

127 Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document (other than as set forth in the definition of “Benchmark Replacement”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document and subject to the proviso below in this paragraph, with respect to a Loan denominated in Canadian Dollars, if a Term CORRA Reelection Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then the applicable Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder or under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that this clause (c) shall not be effective unless the Administrative Agent has delivered to the Lenders and the Borrower a Term CORRA Notice. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to deliver a Term CORRA Notice after the occurrence of a Term CORRA Reelection Event and may not do so in its sole discretion. (d) The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower Representative and the Lenders (and in any event within five Business Days) of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to clause (f) below and (v) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, the Borrower Representative or any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Subsection 4.7, 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 Subsection 4.7. (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR or Term CORRA) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor. (f) Upon the Borrowers’ receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrowers or Borrower’s Representative may revoke any

128 request for a Term Benchmark Borrowing or RFR Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term Benchmark Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, either (x) the Borrowers will be deemed to have converted any request for (1) a Term Benchmark Borrowing denominated in Dollars into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to (A) an RFR Borrowing denominated in Dollars so long as the Daily Simple RFR for Dollar Borrowings is not the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event or (B) an ABR Borrowing if the Daily Simple RFR for Dollar Borrowings is the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event, (2) a Term Benchmark Borrowing denominated in Canadian Dollars into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to a Canadian Prime Rate Borrowing or (y) any Term Benchmark Borrowing or RFR Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency shall be ineffective. 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 Alternate Base Rate and Canadian Prime Rate, as applicable, based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of Alternate Base Rate and Canadian Prime Rate, as applicable. Furthermore, if any Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan in any Agreed Currency is outstanding on the date of the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period with respect to a Relevant Rate applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan, then until such time as a Benchmark Replacement for such Agreed Currency is implemented pursuant to this Subsection 4.7, (A) for Loans denominated in Dollars (1) any Term Benchmark Loan shall on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), be converted by the applicable Agent to, and shall constitute, (x) an RFR Borrowing denominated in Dollars so long as the Daily Simple RFR for Dollar Borrowings is not the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event or (y) an ABR Loan if the Daily Simple RFR for Dollar Borrowings is the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event, on such day and (2) any RFR Loan shall on and from such day be converted by the applicable Agent to, and shall constitute an ABR Loan, (B) for Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars, any Term Benchmark Loan shall on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), be converted by the applicable Agent to, and shall constitute, a Canadian Prime Rate Loan and (C) for Loans denominated in Pounds Sterling, Euro or an Alternative Currency, (1) any Term Benchmark Loan shall, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day) bear interest at the Central Bank Rate for the applicable currency plus the CBR Spread; provided that, if the applicable Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the Central Bank Rate for the applicable currency cannot be determined, any outstanding affected Term Benchmark Loans denominated in such currency shall, at the Borrower’s election prior to such day: (A) be prepaid by the Borrowers on such day or (B) solely for the purpose of calculating the interest rate applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan, such Term Benchmark Loan denominated in such currency shall be deemed to be a Term Benchmark Loan denominated in Dollars and shall accrue interest at the same interest rate applicable to Term Benchmark Loans denominated in Dollars at such time and (2) any RFR Loan shall bear interest at the Central Bank Rate for the applicable currency plus the CBR Spread; provided that, if the applicable Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the Central Bank Rate for the applicable currency cannot be determined, any outstanding affected RFR Loans denominated in such currency, at the Borrower’s election, shall either (A) be converted into ABR

129 Loans denominated in Dollars (in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such currency) immediately or (B) be prepaid in full immediately. 4.8. Pro Rata Treatment and Payments. (a) Except as expressly otherwise provided herein, each borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans (for the avoidance of doubt, other than Swingline Loans) by any of the applicable Borrowers from the Lenders hereunder shall be made, each payment by any of the Borrowers on account of any commitment fee in respect of the Commitments hereunder shall be allocated by the Administrative Agent and any reduction of the Commitments of the Lenders, as applicable, shall be allocated by the Administrative Agent in each case pro rata according to the Commitment Percentages of the Lenders. Except as expressly otherwise provided herein, each payment (including each prepayment (but excluding payments made pursuant to Subsection 2.6, 4.5(b), 4.9, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13(d), 4.15(c) or 11.1(g))) by any of the applicable Borrowers on account of principal of and interest on any Revolving Credit Loans shall be allocated by the Administrative Agent pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of such Revolving Credit Loans then held by the relevant Revolving Credit Lenders, and each payment on account of principal of and interest on any loans made pursuant to any Tranche established after the date of this Agreement shall be allocated pro rata (or as may otherwise be provided for in the applicable amendment to this Agreement relating to such Tranche) among the Lenders with Incremental Revolving Commitments in respect thereof or with participations in such Tranche (in each case subject to any limitations on non-pro rata payments otherwise provided for in Subsection 2.6(b)). All payments (including prepayments) to be made by any of the Borrowers hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees, Reimbursement Obligations or otherwise, shall be made without set-off or counterclaim and shall be made on or prior to the time expressly required hereunder or under such other Loan Document for such payment (or, if no such time is expressly required, prior to 2:00 P.M., New York City time (or such later time as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion)) on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders holding the relevant Loans, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent, or the Other Representatives, as the case may be, at the Administrative Agent’s office specified in Subsection 11.2, in Dollars in immediately available funds. Payments received by the Administrative Agent after such time shall be deemed to have been received on the next Business Day. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to such Lenders or Other Representatives, as the case may be, if any such payment is received prior to 2:00 P.M., New York City time, on a Business Day, in like funds as received prior to the end of such Business Day and otherwise the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to such Lenders or Other Representatives, as the case may be, on the next succeeding Business Day. If any payment hereunder (other than payments on Term Benchmark Loans) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity of such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension. If any payment on a Term Benchmark Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity of such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day (and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension) unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.

130 (b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender prior to a borrowing that such Lender will not make the amount that would constitute its share of such borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender is making such amount available to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrowers in respect of such borrowing a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by the required time on the Borrowing Date therefor, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent on demand, such amount with interest thereon at a rate equal to the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the Administrative Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this Subsection 4.8(b) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such Lender’s share of such borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three Business Days of such Borrowing Date, (x) the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower Representative of the failure of such Lender to make such amount available to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to such Loans pursuant to Subsection 4.1 on demand from such Borrower and (y) then such Borrower may, without waiving or limiting any rights or remedies it may have against such Lender hereunder or under applicable law or otherwise, borrow a like amount on an unsecured basis from any commercial bank for a period ending on the date upon which such Lender does in fact make such borrowing available. 4.9. Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof in each case occurring after the Closing Date shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain any Loans as contemplated by this Agreement (“Affected Loans”), (a) such Lender shall promptly give written notice of such circumstances to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent (which notice shall be withdrawn whenever such circumstances no longer exist), (b) the commitment of such Lender hereunder to make Affected Loans, continue Affected Loans as such and convert an ABR Loan or Canadian Prime Rate Loan to an Affected Loan shall forthwith be cancelled and, until such time as it shall no longer be unlawful for such Lender to make or maintain such Affected Loans, such Lender shall then have a commitment only to make an ABR Loan or Canadian Prime Rate Loan (or a Swingline Loan) when an Affected Loan is requested and (c) such Lender’s Loans then outstanding as Affected Loans, if any, shall be converted automatically to (i) in the case of an Affected Loan denominated in Dollars, ABR Loans, and (ii) in the case of an Affected Loan denominated in Canadian Dollars, Canadian Prime Rate Loans, in each case, on the respective last days of the then current Interest Periods with respect to such Affected Loans or within such earlier period as required by law. If any such conversion or prepayment of an Affected Loan occurs on a day which is not the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, the applicable Borrower shall pay to such Lender such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Subsection 4.12. 4.10. Requirements of Law. (a) If the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof applicable to any Lender or any Issuing Lender, or compliance by any Lender or any Issuing Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force

131 of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority, in each case made subsequent to the Closing Date (or, if later, the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender or such Issuing Lender becomes an Issuing Lender): (i) shall subject such Lender or such Issuing Lender to any Tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to any Letter of Credit or any L/C Request made or maintained by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof, in each case, except for Non-Excluded Taxes and any Excluded Taxes, of such Lender, such Issuing Lender or its applicable lending office, branch, or any affiliate thereof; (ii) [reserved]; or (iii) shall impose on such Lender or such Issuing Lender any other condition (excluding any Tax of any kind whatsoever); and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender or such Issuing Lender, by an amount which such Lender or such Issuing Lender deems to be material, of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining Term Benchmark Loans, or issuing or participating in Letters of Credit or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, upon notice to the Borrower Representative from such Lender or Issuing Lender, through the Administrative Agent in accordance herewith, the applicable Borrower shall promptly pay such Lender or Issuing Lender, upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable with respect to such Loans or Letters of Credit; provided that, in any such case, such Borrower may elect to convert the Term Benchmark Loans made by such Lender hereunder to ABR Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans, as applicable, by giving the Administrative Agent at least one Business Day’s (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion) notice of such election, in which case such Borrower shall promptly pay to such Lender, upon demand, without duplication, amounts theretofore required to be paid to such Lender pursuant to this Subsection 4.10(a) and such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Subsection 4.12. If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Subsection 4.10(a), it shall provide prompt notice thereof to the Borrower Representative, through the Administrative Agent, certifying (x) that one of the events described in this clause (a) has occurred and describing in reasonable detail the nature of such event, (y) as to the increased cost or reduced amount resulting from such event and (z) as to the additional amount demanded by such Lender and a reasonably detailed explanation of the calculation thereof. Such a certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Subsection 4.10(a) submitted by such Lender, through the Administrative Agent, to the Borrower Representative shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Subsection 4.10(a), the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender (i) pursuant to this Subsection 4.10(a) for any amounts incurred more than six months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower Representative of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the adoption of or change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then provided such Lender shall, within six months of such adoption, change, interpretation or application, have notified the Borrower Representative of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor, the six-month period first referred to in

132 this sentence shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof) and (ii) for any increased costs, if such Lender is applying this provision to the Borrowers in a manner that is inconsistent with its application of “increased cost” or other similar provisions under other syndicated credit agreements to similarly situated borrowers. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. (b) If any Lender or any Issuing Lender shall have determined that the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or liquidity or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Lender or such Issuing Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender or such Issuing Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy or liquidity (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority, in each case, made subsequent to the Closing Date, does or shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s obligations hereunder or under or in respect of any Letter of Credit to a level below that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity) by an amount deemed by such Lender or such Issuing Lender to be material, then from time to time, within 10 Business Days after submission by such Lender to the Borrower Representative (through the Administrative Agent) of a written request therefor certifying (x) that one of the events described in this clause (b) has occurred and describing in reasonable detail the nature of such event, (y) as to the reduction of the rate of return on capital resulting from such event and (z) as to the additional amount or amounts demanded by such Lender or such Issuing Lender or corporation and a reasonably detailed explanation of the calculation thereof, the applicable Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or corporation for such reduction. Such a certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Subsection 4.10(b) submitted by such Lender, through the Administrative Agent, to the Borrower Representative shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Subsection 4.10(b), the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender (i) pursuant to this Subsection 4.10(b) for any amounts incurred more than six months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower Representative of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the adoption of or change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then provided such Lender shall, within six months of such adoption, change, interpretation or application, have notified the Borrower Representative of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor, the six-month period first referred to in this sentence shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof) and (ii) for any increased costs, if such Lender is applying this provision to the Borrowers in a manner that is inconsistent with its application of “increased cost” or other similar provisions under other syndicated credit agreements to similarly situated borrowers. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. (c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Dodd Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and all requests, rules, regulations, guidelines and directives promulgated thereunder or issued in connection therewith and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel

133 Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, in each case shall be deemed to have been enacted, adopted or issued, as applicable, subsequent to the Closing Date for all purposes herein. 4.11. Taxes. (a) Except as provided below in this Subsection 4.11 or as required by law (which, for purposes of this Subsection 4.11, shall include FATCA), all payments made by the Borrowers or the Agents under this Agreement and any Notes shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of any Taxes; provided that if any Non- Excluded Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable by such Borrower or the Administrative Agent to any Agent or any Lender hereunder or under any Notes, the amounts so payable by such Borrower shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to such Agent or such Lender (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Agreement. Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes are payable by any Borrower, as promptly as possible thereafter the Borrower Representative shall send to the Administrative Agent for its own account or for the account of the respective Lender or Agent, as the case may be, an original or a certified copy of a receipt received by such Borrower showing payment thereof. The agreements in this Subsection 4.11 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. (b) Each Agent and each Lender that is not a U.S. Person shall: (i) on or before the date of any payment by any of the Borrowers under this Agreement or any Notes to, or for the account of, such Agent or Lender, deliver to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent (A) two accurate and complete original signed Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (certifying that it is a resident of the applicable country within the meaning of the income tax treaty between the United States and that country) or Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8ECI, or successor applicable form, as the case may be, in each case certifying that it is entitled to receive all payments under this Agreement and any Notes without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes, and (B) such other forms, documentation or certifications, as the case may be, certifying that it is entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax with respect to payments under this Agreement and any Notes; (ii) deliver to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent two further accurate and complete original signed forms or certifications provided in Subsection 4.11(b)(i) on or before the date that any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete and after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form or certificate previously delivered by it to the Borrower Representative; (iii) obtain such extensions of time for filing and completing such forms or certifications as may reasonably be requested by the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent; and

134 (iv) deliver, to the extent legally entitled to do so, upon reasonable request by the Borrower Representative, to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent such other forms as may be reasonably required in order to establish the legal entitlement of such Agent or Lender to an exemption from, or reduction of, withholding with respect to payments under this Agreement and any Notes. (c) in the case of any such Foreign Lender that is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code and is claiming the so-called “portfolio interest exemption”, (i) on or before the date of any payment by any of the Borrowers under this Agreement or any Notes to, or for the account of, such Agent or Lender, deliver to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent to the effect that it is not (A) a bank within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of any Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code, and that no interest to be received is effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business (any such certificate a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”); (ii) deliver to the Borrower Representative on or before the date of any payment by any of the Borrowers with a copy to the Administrative Agent, two accurate and complete original signed Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, or successor applicable form, certifying to such Lender’s legal entitlement at the date of such form to an exemption from U.S. withholding tax under the provisions of Section 871(h) or Section 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments to be made under this Agreement and any Notes and such other forms, documentation or certifications, as the case may be certifying that it is entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax with respect to payments under this Agreement and any Notes (and shall also deliver to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent two further accurate and complete original signed forms or certificates on or before the date it expires or becomes obsolete and after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recently provided form or certificate and, if necessary, obtain any extensions of time reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent for filing and completing such forms or certificates); and (iii) deliver, to the extent legally entitled to do so, upon reasonable request by the Borrower Representative, to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent such other forms as may be reasonably required in order to establish the legal entitlement of such Lender to an exemption from, or reduction of, withholding with respect to payments under this Agreement and any Notes. (d) in the case of any such Agent or Lender that is a non-U.S. intermediary or flow-through entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes, (i) on or before the date of any payment by any of the Borrowers under this Agreement or any Notes to, or for the account of, such Agent or Lender, deliver to the

135 Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent two accurate and complete original signed Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8IMY, or successor applicable form, and, if any beneficiary or member of such Lender is claiming the so-called “portfolio interest exemption”, two U.S. Tax Compliance Certificates certifying to such Agent’s or such Lender’s legal entitlement at the date of such certificate to an exemption from U.S. withholding tax under the provisions of Section 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments to be made under this Agreement and any Notes; (ii) with respect to each beneficiary or member of such Agent or Lender that is not claiming the so-called “portfolio interest exemption”, also deliver to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent (A) two accurate and complete original signed Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (certifying that such beneficiary or member is a resident of the applicable country within the meaning of the income tax treaty between the United States and that country), Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8ECI or Internal Revenue Service Forms W-9, or successor applicable form, as the case may be, in each case so that each such beneficiary or member is entitled to receive all payments under this Agreement and any Notes without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes and (B) such other forms, documentation or certifications, as the case may be, certifying that each such beneficiary or member is entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax with respect to all payments under this Agreement and any Notes; (iii) with respect to each beneficiary or member of such Lender that is claiming the so-called “portfolio interest exemption”, (A) deliver to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent two U.S. Tax Compliance Certificates from each beneficiary or member and two accurate and complete original signed Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, or successor applicable form, certifying to such beneficiary’s or member’s legal entitlement at the date of such certificate to an exemption from U.S. withholding tax under the provisions of Section 871(h) or Section 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments to be made under this Agreement and any Notes, and (B) also deliver to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent such other forms, documentation or certifications, as the case may be, certifying that it is entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax with respect to payments under this Agreement and any Notes; (iv) deliver to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent two further accurate and complete original signed forms, certificates or certifications referred to above on or before the date any such form, certificate or certification expires or becomes obsolete, or any beneficiary or member changes, and after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recently provided form, certificate or certification and obtain such extensions of time reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent for filing and completing such forms, certificates or certifications; and (v) deliver, to the extent legally entitled to do so, upon reasonable request by the Borrower Representative, to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent such other forms as may be reasonably required in order to establish

136 the legal entitlement of such Agent or Lender (or beneficiary or member) to an exemption from, or reduction of, withholding with respect to payments under this Agreement and any Notes; unless in any such case (other than with respect to United States backup withholding tax) there has been a change in applicable law which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would prevent such Agent or such Lender (or such beneficiary or member) from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it and such Agent or such Lender so advises the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent. Each Lender and Agent shall promptly notify in writing the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any documentation previously provided. (e) Each Lender and each Agent, in each case that is a U.S. Person, shall on or before the date of any payment by any Borrower under this Agreement or any Notes to such Lender or Agent, deliver to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent two accurate and complete original signed Internal Revenue Service Forms W-9, or successor applicable form, certifying that such Lender or Agent is a U.S. Person and that such Lender or Agent is entitled to complete exemption from United States backup withholding tax. (f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Administrative Agent is not a U.S. Person, on or before the date of any payment by any of the Borrowers under this Agreement or any Notes to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall: (i) deliver to the Borrower Representative (A) two accurate and complete original signed Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8ECI, or successor applicable form, with respect to any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent for its own account, (B) two accurate and complete original signed Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8IMY, or successor applicable form, with respect to any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent for the account of others, certifying that it is 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 in the United States and that it is using such form as evidence of its agreement with the Borrowers to be treated as a U.S. person with respect to such payments (and the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent agree to so treat the Administrative Agent as a U.S. person with respect to such payments as contemplated by U.S. Treasury Regulation § 1.1441-1(b)(2)(iv)) and (C) such other forms or certifications as may be sufficient under applicable law to establish that the Administrative Agent is entitled to receive any payment by any of the Borrowers under this Agreement or any Notes (whether for its own account or for the account of others) without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes; (ii) deliver to the Borrower Representative two further accurate and complete original signed forms or certifications provided in Subsection 4.11(f)(i) on or before the date that any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete and after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form or certificate previously delivered by it to the Borrower Representative; and

137 (iii) obtain such extensions of time for filing and completing such forms or certifications as may reasonably be requested by the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent; unless in any such case (other than with respect to United States backup withholding tax) there has been a change in applicable law which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would prevent the Administrative Agent from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it and the Administrative Agent so advises the Borrower Representative. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify in writing the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any documentation previously provided. (g) If a payment made to an Agent or a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Agent or Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA, such Agent or Lender shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or the Borrower Representative, such documentation prescribed by applicable law and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or the Borrower Representative as may be necessary for the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers to comply with their respective obligations (including any applicable reporting requirements) under FATCA, to determine whether such Agent or Lender has complied with such Agent’s or Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. For the avoidance of doubt, the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent shall be permitted to withhold any Taxes imposed by FATCA. (h) Any Lender or Agent that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made hereunder or under any Note shall deliver to the Borrowers and Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers or Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrowers or Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrowers or Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrowers or Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrowers or Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than documentation set forth in Subsection 4.11(b) through (g) above) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgement 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 and Agent agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrowers in writing of its legal inability to do so. (i) For purposes of this Subsection 4.11 and for purposes of Subsection 4.13, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Lender.

138 4.12. Break Funding Indemnity. The Borrowers agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify each Lender in respect of Extensions of Credit made, or requested to be made, to the Borrowers and to hold each such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense which such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by such Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of Term Benchmark Loans, after the Borrower Representative has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) default by such Borrower in making any prepayment or conversion of Term Benchmark Loans after the Borrower Representative has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or (c) the making of a payment or prepayment of Term Benchmark Loans or the conversion of Term Benchmark Loans on a day which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any amounts under the indemnity contained in this Subsection 4.12, it shall provide prompt notice thereof to the Borrower Representative, through the Administrative Agent, certifying (x) that one of the events described in clause (a), (b) or (c) has occurred and describing in reasonable detail the nature of such event, (y) as to the loss, cost or expense sustained or incurred by such Lender as a consequence thereof and (z) as to the amount for which such Lender seeks indemnification hereunder and a reasonably detailed explanation of the calculation thereof. Such a certificate as to any indemnification pursuant to this Subsection 4.12 submitted by such Lender, through the Administrative Agent, to the Borrower Representative shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The Borrower Representative shall pay (or cause the relevant Borrower to pay) such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 4.13. Certain Rules Relating to the Payment of Additional Amounts. (a) Upon the request, and at the expense of the Borrower Representative, each Lender and Agent to which any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount pursuant to Subsection 4.10 or 4.11, and any Participant in respect of whose participation such payment is required, shall reasonably afford the Borrower Representative the opportunity to contest, and reasonably cooperate with the Borrower Representative in contesting, the imposition of any Non- Excluded Tax giving rise to such payment; provided that (i) such Lender or Agent shall not be required to afford the Borrower Representative the opportunity to so contest unless the Borrower Representative shall have confirmed in writing to such Lender or Agent such Borrower’s obligation to pay such amounts pursuant to this Agreement and (ii) the Borrowers shall reimburse such Lender or Agent for its reasonable attorneys’ and accountants’ fees and disbursements incurred in so cooperating with the Borrower Representative in contesting the imposition of such Non-Excluded Tax; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing no Lender or Agent shall be required to afford the Borrower Representative the opportunity to contest, or cooperate with the Borrower Representative in contesting, the imposition of any Non-Excluded Taxes, if such Lender or Agent in its sole discretion in good faith determines that to do so would have an adverse effect on it. (b) If a Lender changes its applicable lending office (other than (i) pursuant to clause (c) below or (ii) after an Event of Default under Subsection 9.1(a) or 9.1(f) has occurred and is continuing) and the effect of such change, as of the date of such change, would be to cause

139 any of the Borrowers to become obligated to pay any additional amount under Subsection 4.10 or 4.11, such Borrower shall not be obligated to pay such additional amount. (c) If a condition or an event occurs which would, or would upon the passage of time or giving of notice, result in the payment of any additional amount to any Lender or Agent by any of the Borrowers pursuant to Subsection 4.10 or 4.11 or result in Affected Loans or commitments to make Affected Loans being automatically converted to ABR Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans or commitments to make ABR Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans, as the case may be, pursuant to Subsection 4.9, such Lender or Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent and shall take such steps as may reasonably be available to it to mitigate the effects of such condition or event (which shall include efforts to rebook the Loans held by such Lender at another lending office, or through another branch or an affiliate, of such Lender); provided that such Lender or Agent shall not be required to take any step that, in its reasonable judgment, would be materially disadvantageous to its business or operations or would require it to incur additional costs (unless the Borrowers agree to reimburse such Lender or Agent for the reasonable incremental out-of-pocket costs thereof). (d) If any of the Borrowers shall become obligated to pay additional amounts pursuant to Subsection 4.10 or 4.11 and any affected Lender shall not have promptly taken steps necessary to avoid the need for payments under Subsection 4.10 or 4.11 or if Affected Loans or commitments to make Affected Loans are automatically converted to ABR Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans or commitments to make ABR Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans, as the case may be, under Subsection 4.9 and any affected Lender shall not have promptly taken steps necessary to avoid the need for such conversion under Subsection 4.9, the Borrower Representative shall have the right, for so long as such obligation remains, (i) with the assistance of the Administrative Agent to seek one or more substitute Lenders reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative to purchase the affected Loan, in whole or in part, at an aggregate price no less than such Loan’s principal amount plus accrued interest, and assume the affected obligations under this Agreement, or (ii) so long as no Event of Default under Subsection 9.1(a) or 9.1(f) then exists or will exist immediately after giving effect to the respective prepayment, upon notice to the Administrative Agent to prepay the affected Loan, in whole or in part, subject to Subsection 4.12, without premium or penalty and terminate the Commitments in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility of such Lender. In the case of the substitution of a Lender, then, the Borrower Representative, any other applicable Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the affected Lender, and any substitute Lender shall execute and deliver an appropriately completed Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to Subsection 11.6(b) to effect the assignment of rights to, and the assumption of obligations by, the substitute Lender; provided that any fees required to be paid by Subsection 11.6(b) in connection with such assignment shall be paid by the applicable Borrower or the substitute Lender. In the case of a prepayment of an affected Loan, the amount specified in the notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with any accrued interest to such date on the amount prepaid. In the case of each of the substitution of a Lender and of the prepayment of an affected Loan, the applicable Borrower shall first pay the affected Lender any additional amounts owing under Subsections 4.10 and 4.11 (as well as any commitment fees and other amounts then due and owing to such Lender, including any amounts under this Subsection 4.13) prior to such substitution or prepayment. In the case of the substitution of a Lender pursuant to this Subsection 4.13(d) or Subsection 4.15(c)(i), if the Lender being replaced does not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly completed Assignment

140 and Acceptance and/or any other documentation necessary to reflect such replacement by the later of (a) the date on which the assignee Lender executes and delivers such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation and (b) the date as of which all obligations of the Borrowers owing to such replaced Lender relating to the Loans and participations so assigned shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender and/or the Borrower Representative to such Lender being replaced, then the Lender being replaced shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation as of such date and the applicable Borrower shall be entitled (but not obligated) to execute and deliver such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation on behalf of such Lender. (e) If any Agent or any Lender receives a refund (in cash or as an overpayment applied to future Tax payments) of Taxes for which any of the Borrowers has made additional payments pursuant to Subsection 4.10(a) or 4.11(a), such Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, shall promptly pay such refund (together with any interest with respect thereto received from the relevant taxing authority, but net of any reasonable out-of-pocket cost incurred in connection therewith) to such Borrower; provided, however, that such Borrower agrees promptly to return such refund (together with any interest with respect thereto due to the relevant taxing authority) (free of all Non-Excluded Taxes) to such Agent or the applicable Lender, as the case may be, upon receipt of a notice that such refund is required to be repaid to the relevant taxing authority. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any Agent or Lender to make available its Tax returns (or related work papers and advice prepared by outside advisors) to any Borrower or to any other Person. (f) The obligations of any Agent, Lender or Participant under this Subsection 4.13 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all amounts payable hereunder. 4.14. Controls on Prepayment if Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exceeds Aggregate Revolving Credit Loan Commitments. In addition to the provisions set forth in Subsection 4.4(b), the Borrower Representative will implement and maintain internal controls to monitor the borrowings and repayments of Loans by the Borrowers and the issuance of and drawings under Letters of Credit, with the objective of preventing any request for an Extension of Credit that would result in (i) the Aggregate Outstanding Credit with respect to all of the Revolving Credit Lenders (including the Swingline Lender) being in excess of the aggregate Commitments then in effect or (ii) any other circumstance under which an Extension of Credit would not be permitted pursuant to Subsection 2.1(a). (a) The Administrative Agent will calculate the Aggregate Outstanding Credit with respect to all of (A) the Revolving Credit Lenders and (B) the Lenders (in each case, including the Swingline Lender) from time to time, and in any event not less frequently than once during each calendar week. In making such calculations, the Administrative Agent will rely on the information most recently received by it from the Swingline Lender in respect of outstanding Swingline Loans and from the Issuing Lenders in respect of outstanding L/C Obligations. 4.15. Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, if any Revolving Credit Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Revolving Credit Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

141 (a) no commitment fee shall accrue for the account of a Defaulting Lender so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender (except to the extent it is payable to the Issuing Lender pursuant to clause (d)(v) below); (b) in determining the Required Lenders or Supermajority Lenders, any Lender that at the time is a Defaulting Lender (and the Revolving Credit Loans and/or Commitment of such Defaulting Lender) shall be excluded and disregarded; (c) the Borrower Representative shall have the right, at its sole expense and effort (i) to seek one or more Persons reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative to each become a substitute Revolving Credit Lender and assume all or part of the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender and the Borrower Representative, the Administrative Agent and any such substitute Revolving Credit Lender shall execute and deliver, and such Defaulting Lender shall thereupon be deemed to have executed and delivered, an appropriately completed Assignment and Acceptance to effect such substitution or (ii) so long as no Event of Default under Subsection 9.1(a) or 9.1(f) then exists or will exist immediately after giving effect to the respective prepayment, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, to prepay the Loans and, at the Borrower Representative’s option, terminate the Commitments of such Defaulting Lender, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty; (d) if any Swingline Exposure exists or any L/C Obligations exist at the time a Revolving Credit Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then: (i) all or any part of such Swingline Exposure and L/C Obligations shall be re-allocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages but only to the extent the sum of all Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure and L/C Obligations does not exceed the total of all Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Commitments; (ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrowers shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure and (y) second, cash collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent for so long as such L/C Obligations are outstanding; (iii) if any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations is cash collateralized pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Borrowers shall not be required to pay the L/C Fee for participation with respect to such portion of such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure so long as it is cash collateralized; (iv) if any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations is reallocated to the Non-Defaulting Lenders pursuant to clause (i) above, then the letter of credit commission with respect to such portion shall be allocated among the Non- Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their Commitment Percentages; or (v) if any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations is neither cash collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to this Subsection 4.15(d), then, without

142 prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Lender or any Revolving Credit Lender hereunder, the commitment fee that otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Lender (with respect to the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment that was utilized by such L/C Obligations) and the letter of credit commission payable with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations shall be payable to the Issuing Lender until such L/C Obligations are cash collateralized and/or reallocated; (e) so long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and the Issuing Lender shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless they are respectively satisfied that the related exposure will be 100.0% covered by the Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateralized on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and participations in any such newly issued or increased Letter of Credit or newly made Swingline Loan shall be allocated among Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages (and Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein); (f) any amount payable to such Defaulting Lender hereunder (whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise and including any amount that would otherwise be payable to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Subsection 11.7) may, in lieu of being distributed to such Defaulting Lender, be retained by the Administrative Agent in a segregated non-interest bearing account and, subject to any applicable Requirements of Law, be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent (i) first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder, (ii) second, pro rata, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender hereunder, (iii) third, to the funding of any Loan or the funding or cash collateralization of any participation in any Swingline Loan or Letter of Credit 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, (iv) fourth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative, held in such account as cash collateral for future funding obligations of such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement, (v) fifth, pro rata, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrowers or the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by a Borrower or any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement and (vi) sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if such payment is (x) a prepayment of the principal amount of any Loans or Reimbursement Obligations in respect of L/C Disbursements in respect of which a Defaulting Lender has funded its participation obligations and (y) made at a time when the conditions set forth in Subsection 6.2 are satisfied, such payment shall be applied solely to prepay the Loans of, and Reimbursement Obligations owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders pro rata prior to being applied to the prepayment of any Loans, or Reimbursement Obligations owed to, any Defaulting Lender; and (g) In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower Representative, each applicable Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swingline Exposure and L/C Obligations of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be

143 necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Commitment Percentage. The rights and remedies against a Defaulting Lender under this Subsection 4.15 are in addition to other rights and remedies that the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders, the Swingline Lender and the Non-Defaulting Lenders may have against such Defaulting Lender. The arrangements permitted or required by this Subsection 4.15 shall be permitted under this Agreement, notwithstanding any limitation on Liens or the pro rata sharing provisions or otherwise. 4.16. Cash Management. (a) Annexed hereto as Schedule 4.16, as the same may be modified from time to time by notice to the Administrative Agent, is a schedule of all DDAs (other than any deposit account of a Foreign Subsidiary maintained in a jurisdiction outside of the United States of America or Canada) and Concentration Accounts that are maintained by the Qualified Loan Parties, which schedule includes, with respect to each depository (i) the name and address of such depository; (ii) the account number(s) (and account name(s) of such bank account(s)) maintained with such depository; and (iii) a contact person at such depository. Except as otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, each Qualified Loan Party shall (i) deliver to the Administrative Agent (A) no later than the day that is 45 days after the Closing Date (or such later date as the Administrative Agent may decide in its sole discretion) notifications executed on behalf of each such Qualified Loan Party to each depository institution with which any DDA (other than Excluded Accounts) is maintained, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent of the Administrative Agent’s interest in such DDA and (B) no later than the day that is 45 days after the Closing Date (or such later date as the Administrative Agent may decide in its sole discretion) Credit Card Notifications executed on behalf of each such Qualified Loan Party and delivered to each Credit Card Issuer and Credit Card Processor, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (ii) no later than the day that is 45 days after the Closing Date (or such later date as the Administrative Agent may decide in its sole discretion) instruct each depository institution for a DDA (other than Excluded Accounts) that the amount in excess of $3,000,000 and available at the close of each Business Day in such DDA should be swept to one of the Qualified Loan Parties’ Concentration Accounts no less frequently than on a daily basis, such instructions to be irrevocable unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent, (iii) no later than the day that is 60 days after the Closing Date (or such later date as the Administrative Agent may decide in its sole discretion) enter into a springing blocked account agreement (each, a “Blocked Account Agreement”), in form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, with the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent and any bank with which such Qualified Loan Party maintains a Concentration Account into which the DDAs (other than Excluded Accounts) are swept (each such account, a “Blocked Account” and collectively, the “Blocked Accounts”), covering each such Concentration Account maintained with such bank and (iv) (A) instruct all Account Debtors of such Qualified Loan Party that remit payments of Accounts of such Account Debtor regularly by check pursuant to arrangements with such Qualified Loan Party to remit all such payments to the applicable “P.O. Boxes” or “Lockbox Addresses” with respect to the applicable DDA or Concentration Account, which remittances shall be collected by the applicable bank and deposited in the applicable DDA or Concentration Account or (B) cause the checks of any such Account Debtors to be deposited in the applicable DDA or Concentration Account within five Business Days after such check is received by such Qualified Loan Party; provided that for the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the first anniversary of the Closing Date, such

144 Qualified Loan Party may cause such checks to be so deposited within ten Business Days after such check is so received. All amounts received by the U.S. Borrower or any of its Domestic Subsidiaries that is a Loan Party in respect of any Account, in addition to all other cash received from any other source, shall upon receipt of such amount or cash (other than (i) any such amount to be deposited in Excluded Accounts or (ii) cash excluded from the Collateral pursuant to any Security Document) be deposited into a DDA (other than an Excluded Account) or Concentration Account. Each Qualified Loan Party agrees that it will not cause proceeds of such DDAs (other than Excluded Accounts) to be otherwise redirected. (c) Each Blocked Account Agreement shall require, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Dominion Event, the ACH or wire transfer no less frequently than once per Business Day (unless the Commitments have been terminated and the monetary obligations then due and owing hereunder and under the other Loan Documents have been paid in full and all Letters of Credit have either been terminated or expired (unless cash collateralized or otherwise provided for in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent)), of all available cash balances and cash receipts, including the then contents or then entire available ledger balance of each Blocked Account net of such minimum balance (not to exceed $500,000 per account or $1,500,000 in the aggregate), if any, required by the bank at which such Blocked Account is maintained to an account maintained by the Administrative Agent at JPMCB (the “Core Concentration Account”). Each Qualified Loan Party agrees that it will not cause proceeds of any Blocked Account to be otherwise redirected. (d) All collected amounts received in the Core Concentration Account shall be distributed and applied on a daily basis in the following order (in each case, to the extent the Administrative Agent has actual knowledge of the amounts owing or outstanding as described below and after giving effect to the application of any such amounts constituting proceeds from any Collateral otherwise required to be applied pursuant to the terms of the respective Security Document, any Junior Lien Intercreditor Agreement or any Other Intercreditor Agreement, as applicable): (1) first, to the payment (on a ratable basis) of any outstanding expenses actually due and payable to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent under any of the Loan Documents and to repay or prepay outstanding Swingline Loans and Revolving Credit Loans advanced by the Administrative Agent; (2) second, to pay (on a ratable basis) all outstanding expenses actually due and payable to each Issuing Lender under any of the Loan Documents and to repay all outstanding Unpaid Drawings and all interest thereon; (3) third, to pay (on a ratable basis) all accrued and unpaid interest actually due and payable on the Revolving Credit Loans and all accrued and unpaid fees actually due and payable to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents; (4) fourth, to repay (on a ratable basis) the outstanding principal of Swingline Loans and Revolving Credit Loans (whether or not then due and payable); (5) fifth, to pay (on a ratable basis) all outstanding obligations of the Borrowers then due and payable to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, and the Lenders under this Agreement; and (6) sixth, to pay (on a ratable basis) all other outstanding obligations of the Borrowers then due and payable to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, and the Lenders under any of the other Loan Documents. This Subsection 4.16(d) may be amended (and the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into such amendments) to the extent necessary to reflect differing amounts payable, and priorities of payments, to Lenders participating in any new classes or tranches of loans added pursuant to Subsection 2.6 in accordance with Subsection 11.1(d).

145 (e) If, at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Dominion Event as to which the Administrative Agent has notified the Borrower Representative, any cash, Cash Equivalents or Temporary Cash Investments owned by any Qualified Loan Party (other than (i) de minimis cash, Cash Equivalents and/or Temporary Cash Investments from time to time inadvertently misapplied by any Qualified Loan Party, (ii) cash, Cash Equivalents or Temporary Cash Investments deposited or to be deposited in an Excluded Account in accordance with this Subsection 4.16 and (iii) cash, Cash Equivalents or Temporary Cash Investments that are (or are in any bank account that is) excluded from the Collateral pursuant to any Security Document, including Excluded Assets) are deposited to any bank account, or held or invested in any manner, otherwise than in a Blocked Account subject to a Blocked Account Agreement (or a DDA which is swept daily to such Blocked Account), the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to require the applicable Qualified Loan Party to close such bank account and have all funds therein transferred to a Blocked Account, and to cause all future deposits that were previously made or required to be made to such bank account to be made to a Blocked Account. (f) The Qualified Loan Parties respectively may close DDAs or Concentration Accounts and/or open new DDAs or new Concentration Accounts, subject to, in the case of any new Concentration Account, (i) the execution and delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Blocked Account Agreement consistent with the provisions of this Subsection 4.16 with respect to each such new Concentration Account within 30 days (or such longer period as the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, may agree) of the opening thereof or (ii) other arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and (b) as part of the Compliance Certificate to be delivered concurrently with the delivery of financial statements and reports referred to in Subsections 7.1(a) and 7.1(b) the Borrower Representative will provide a list to the Administrative Agent of any new opened or acquired DDAs or Concentration Accounts during the preceding Fiscal Quarter. (g) In the event that a Qualified Loan Party acquires new demand deposit accounts or new concentration accounts (in each case, other than Excluded Accounts) in connection with an acquisition, the Borrower Representative will procure that such Qualified Loan Party shall within 12 months of the date of such acquisition (or such longer period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent) cause such new demand deposit accounts or new concentration accounts so acquired to comply with the applicable requirements of Subsection 4.16(b) (including, with respect to any new Concentration Account, by entering into a Blocked Account Agreement) or shall enter into other arrangements consistent with the provisions of this Subsection 4.16 and otherwise reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent with respect to any new Concentration Account or DDA that, in either case, is to become a Blocked Account. (h) The Core Concentration Account shall at all times be under the sole dominion and control of the Administrative Agent. The Borrower Representative, on behalf of each Qualified Loan Party, hereby acknowledges and agrees that, except to the extent otherwise provided in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreements, any Junior Lien Intercreditor Agreement or any Other Intercreditor Agreement, as applicable, (x) such Qualified Loan Party has no right of withdrawal from the Core Concentration Account, (y) the funds on deposit in the Core Concentration Account shall at all times continue to be collateral security for all of the Obligations of the Qualified Loan Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and (z) the funds on deposit in the Core Concentration Account shall be applied as provided in this Agreement (and

146 any other applicable intercreditor agreement). In the event that, notwithstanding the provisions of this Subsection 4.16, any Qualified Loan Party receives or otherwise has dominion and control of any proceeds or collections required to be transferred to the Core Concentration Account pursuant to Subsection 4.16(c), such proceeds and collections shall be held in trust by such Qualified Loan Party for the Administrative Agent, shall not be commingled with any of such Qualified Loan Party’s other funds or deposited in any bank account of such Qualified Loan Party (other than any bank account by which such Qualified Loan Party received or acquired dominion or control over such proceeds and collections or with any funds in such bank account) and shall promptly be deposited into the Core Concentration Account or dealt with in such other fashion as such Qualified Loan Party may be instructed by the Administrative Agent. (i) So long as no Dominion Event has occurred and is continuing, the Qualified Loan Parties may direct, and shall have sole control over, the manner of disposition of funds in the Blocked Accounts. (j) Any amounts held or received in the Core Concentration Account (including all interest and other earnings with respect hereto, if any) at any time (x) when all of the monetary obligations due and owing hereunder and under the other Loan Documents have been satisfied and/or (y) all Dominion Events have been cured or waived, shall (subject in the case of clause (x) to the provisions of the applicable intercreditor agreement), be remitted to the operating bank account of the applicable Qualified Loan Party. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent shall direct JPMCB to remit any amounts in the Core Concentration Account to the Borrowers to the extent no Loans are outstanding and all Letters of Credit have been fully cash collateralized hereunder. (k) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Loan Parties shall be deemed to be in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Subsection 4.16 during the initial 60 day period (or such later date as the Administrative Agent may decide in its sole discretion) commencing on the Closing Date to the extent that the arrangements described above are established and effective not later than the date that is 60 days following the Closing Date (or 45 days following the Closing Date, with respect to those arrangements required to be effective 45 days following the Closing Date pursuant to the other clauses of this Subsection 4.16, subject to any extension the Administrative Agent is authorized to provide in its sole discretion) or such later date as the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, may agree. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a separate Core Concentration Account may be maintained by the Administrative Agent at JPMCB (or an Affiliate thereof) for the wire transfer of all available cash balances and cash receipts, in accordance with the terms of this Subsection 4.16, in respect of the Blocked Accounts of Canadian Loan Parties if the Administrative Agent determines, in its Permitted Discretion, to maintain such separate Core Concentration Account.

148 delivery and performance by such Foreign Loan Party of such Loan Documents constitute and will constitute private and commercial acts and not public or governmental acts. There is no material tax, levy, impost, duty, fee, assessment or other governmental charge, or any material deduction or withholding, imposed by any Governmental Authority in or of the jurisdiction in which such Foreign Loan Party is organized and existing on or by virtue of the execution or delivery of any Loan Document to which it is party. 5.4. Binding Effect. This Agreement has been, and each other Loan Document, when delivered hereunder, will have been, duly executed and delivered by each Loan Party that is party thereto. This Agreement constitutes, and each other Loan Document when so delivered will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Loan Party, enforceable against each Loan Party that is party thereto in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights or secured parties’ generally, and by general equitable principles (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at law). 5.5.

No Material Litigation. There are no actions, suits, proceedings, claims or disputes pending or, to the knowledge of the U.S. Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, threatened in writing, at law, in equity, in arbitration or before any Governmental Authority, by or against the U.S. Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or against any of their properties or

Properties. (a) Generally. Each of the U.S. Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries has good legal title to (in the case of fee interests in Real Property), valid leasehold interests in (in the case of leasehold interests in real or personal property) and good title to (in the case of all other personal property), all its tangible property material to its business, free and clear of all Liens except for Permitted Liens and minor irregularities or deficiencies in title that in the aggregate do not materially interfere with its ability to conduct its business as currently conducted or to utilize such property for its intended purpose or except where the failure to have such title could not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. (b) Flood Insurance. No Mortgage encumbers improved real property that is located in an area that has been identified by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development as an area having special flood hazards within the meaning of the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 unless flood insurance available under such Act has been obtained to the extent required by Subsection 7.5. (c) Collateral. The use by each of the U.S. Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries of the Collateral does not infringe on the rights of any Person other than such infringement which would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 5.9. Environmental Matters. Except as set forth in Schedule 5.9 and except as, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect: (a) the U.S. Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries and their businesses, operations and Real Property are in compliance with, and the U.S. Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries have no liability under, Environmental Law; (b) the U.S. Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries have obtained all Environmental Permits required for the conduct of their businesses and operations, and the ownership, operation and use of their property, under Environmental Law and all such Environmental Permits are valid and in good standing; (c) there has been no Release or threatened Release of Materials of Environmental Concern on, at, under or from any Real Property or facility presently or, to the knowledge of the U.S. Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, formerly owned, leased or operated by the U.S. Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries or their predecessors in interest,

(e) Except as set forth in Schedule 5.9 or as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect: (f) none of the U.S. Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries is obligated to perform any action or otherwise incur any expense under Environmental Law pursuant to any order, decree, judgment or agreement by which it is bound or has assumed by contract or agreement, and no such Person is conducting or financing any Response pursuant to any Environmental Law with respect to any Real Property or any other location, except as, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect; (g) no Real Property or facility owned, operated or leased by the U.S. Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries and, to the knowledge of the U.S. Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, no Real Property or facility formerly owned, operated or leased by the U.S. Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries or any of their predecessors in interest is (A) listed or proposed for listing on the National Priorities List promulgated pursuant to CERCLA or (B) listed on the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Information System promulgated pursuant to CERCLA or included on any similar list maintained by any Governmental Authority including any such list relating to petroleum; (h) no Lien has been recorded or, to the knowledge of the U.S. Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, threatened under any Environmental Law with respect to any owned real property or other assets of the U.S. Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, except as individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect; and (i) the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will not require any notification, registration, filing, reporting, disclosure, investigation, remediation or cleanup pursuant to any Governmental Real Property Disclosure Requirements or any other Environmental Law, except for those matters that, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 5.10. Insurance. The properties of the U.S. Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries are insured with financially sound and reputable insurance companies, in such amounts (after giving effect to any self-insurance reasonable and customary for similarly situated

151 Persons engaged in the same or similar businesses as U.S. Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries) with such deductibles and covering such risks as are customarily carried by prudent companies engaged in similar businesses and owning similar properties in localities where U.S. Borrower or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary operates 5.11. Taxes. Holdings and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries have (a) timely filed all material federal, state and other Tax Returns and reports required to be filed and (b) duly and timely paid all material federal, state, provincial, territorial and other Taxes levied or imposed upon them or their properties, income or assets otherwise due and payable (whether or not shown on any Tax Return), except those which are not more than 30 days overdue or are being contested in good faith by appropriate actions diligently conducted and in each case for which adequate reserves have been provided in accordance with GAAP. There are no proposed tax assessments against Holdings or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that, if made, would reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Effect. Holdings and each Restricted Subsidiary has made adequate provision in accordance with GAAP for all material Taxes not yet due and payable. Neither Holdings nor any Restricted Subsidiary has engaged in any “listed transaction” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4(b)(2), except as would not be reasonably expected to, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Effect. Except any liabilities for Taxes of any consolidated, combined or unitary Tax group of which the Holdings is the common parent, neither Holdings nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries has any liabilities for the Taxes of any Person under Treas. Reg. Section 1.1502-6 or any similar provision of state, provincial, territorial, local or foreign law, as a transferee or successor, by contract or otherwise, except for (i) any agreements among or between Holdings and its Restricted Subsidiaries and other than customary Tax indemnifications contained in credit or other commercial agreements the primary purpose of which does not relate to Taxes or (ii) as would not reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Effect. 5.12. ERISA. (a) No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all other such ERISA Events for which liability is reasonably expected to occur, would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The Loan Parties and each ERISA Affiliate are in compliance in all material respects with the presently applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code with respect to each Employee Benefit Plan except such noncompliance as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The present value of all accumulated benefit obligations of all underfunded Pension Plans (based on the assumptions used for purposes of FASB ASC No. 715) did not, as of the date of the most recent financial statements reflecting such amounts, exceed an amount that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. (b) Except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (i) each Foreign Plan has been maintained in substantial compliance with its terms and with the requirements of any and all applicable Law and has been maintained, where required, in good standing with applicable regulatory authorities, (ii) neither the U.S. Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries has incurred any material obligation in connection with the termination of or withdrawal from any Foreign Plan and (iii) the present value of the accrued benefit liabilities

152 (whether or not vested) under each Foreign Plan which is funded, determined as of the end of the most recently ended fiscal year on the basis of actuarial assumptions, each of which is reasonable, did not exceed the current value of the property of such Foreign Plan, and for each Foreign Plan which is not funded, the obligations of such Foreign Plan are properly accrued. (c) No Canadian Pension Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all other such Canadian Pension Events for which liability is reasonably expected to occur, would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, the Canadian Pension Plans, if any, are duly registered under the Income Tax Act (Canada) (if required to be so registered) and any other applicable laws which require registration, have been administered in accordance with the Income Tax Act (Canada) and such other applicable laws and no event has occurred which could reasonably be expected to cause the loss of such registered status. All material obligations of the U.S. Borrower and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries, as applicable (including fiduciary, funding, investment and administration obligations) required to be performed in connection with the Canadian Pension Plans and the funding agreements therefor have been performed on a timely basis, except to the extent that any failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, there are no outstanding disputes concerning the assets of the Canadian Pension Plans. Except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, all contributions or premiums required to be made or paid by the U.S. Borrower and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries, as applicable, to the Canadian Pension Plans or the Canadian Benefit Plans have been made on a timely basis in accordance with the terms of such plans and all applicable laws. Except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, there have been no improper withdrawals or applications of the assets of the Canadian Pension Plans. The Loan Parties do not, and have not previously sponsored, administered, participated in or contributed to a Canadian Defined Benefit Plan or Canadian Defined Benefit Multi-Employer Plan. (d) As of the Closing Date, no Borrower is nor will be (1) an employee benefit plan subject to Title I of ERISA; (2) a plan or account subject to Section 4975 of the Code; (3) an entity deemed to hold “plan assets” of any such plans or accounts for purposes of ERISA or the Code; or (4) a “governmental plan” within the meaning of ERISA. 5.13. Subsidiaries.

As of the Closing Date, neither the U.S. Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries has any equity investments in any other corporation or entity other than those specifically disclosed in Schedule 5.13(b). All of the outstanding Capital Stock of the U.S. Borrower have been validly issued. As of the Closing Date, all wholly-owned Restricted Subsidiaries of the U.S. Borrower that do not constitute Excluded Subsidiaries existing on the Closing Date, other than the Canadian Borrower, are Subsidiary Guarantors. As of the Closing Date, Schedule 5.13(a) correctly sets forth the ownership interest of the U.S. Borrower and its Subsidiaries in their respective Subsidiaries as of the Closing Date.

153 5.14. Investment Company Act; Other Regulations. (a) Neither the U.S. Borrower nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is engaged nor does it intend to engage, principally or as one of its important activities, in the business of purchasing or carrying margin stock (within the meaning of Regulation U issued by the FRB), or extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying margin stock, and no proceeds of any Borrowings or drawings under any Letter of Credit will be used for any purpose that violates Regulation U. (b) No part of the proceeds of any Extensions of Credit will be used for any purpose which violates the provisions of the Regulations of the Board, including Regulation T, Regulation U or Regulation X of the Board. If requested by any Lender or the Administrative Agent, the Borrower Representative will furnish to the Administrative Agent and each Lender a statement to the foregoing effect in conformity with the requirements of FR Form G-3 or FR Form U-1, referred to in said Regulation U. (c) Neither the U.S. Borrower nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act of 1940. 5.15. No Material Misstatements. The written information, reports, financial statements, exhibits and schedules furnished by or on behalf of the Borrower Representative to the Administrative Agent, the Other Representatives and the Lenders on or prior to the Closing Date in connection with the negotiation of any Loan Document or included therein or delivered pursuant thereto, taken as a whole, did not contain as of the Closing Date any material misstatement of fact and did not omit to state as of the Closing Date any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not materially misleading in their presentation of the U.S. Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole. It is understood that (a) no representation or warranty is made concerning the forecasts, estimates, pro forma information, projections and statements as to anticipated future performance or conditions, and the assumptions on which they were based or concerning any information of a general economic nature or general information about the U.S. Borrower’s and its Subsidiaries’ industry, contained in any such information, reports, financial statements, exhibits or schedules, except that, in the case of such forecasts, estimates, pro forma information, projections and statements, as of the date such forecasts, estimates, pro forma information, projections and statements were generated, (i) such forecasts, estimates, pro forma information, projections and statements were based on the good faith assumptions of the management of the Borrower Representative and (ii) such assumptions were believed by such management to be reasonable and (b) such forecasts, estimates, pro forma information, projections and statements, and the assumptions on which they were based, may or may not prove to be correct. 5.16. Compliance with Laws; Employment Matters. Each of the U.S. Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries is in compliance with the requirements of all Laws and all orders, writs, injunctions and decrees applicable to it or to its properties, except in such instances in which (a) such applicable law or order, writ, injunction or decree is being contested in good faith by appropriate actions diligently conducted or (b) the failure to comply therewith, either individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The hours worked by and payments made to employees of the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries have not

154 been in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act or any other applicable Federal, state, provincial, territorial, local or foreign law dealing with such matters. All payments due from any Loan Party or any Subsidiary, or for which any claim may be made against any Loan Party or any Subsidiary, on account of wages and employee health and welfare insurance and other benefits, have been paid or accrued as a liability on the books of such Loan Party or such Subsidiary. 5.17. No Change; Solvent. Immediately after giving effect to the Transactions to occur on the Closing Date and immediately following the making of each Loan and after giving effect to the application of the proceeds of each Loan (after taking into account the contribution obligations of each Loan Party pursuant to the Guarantees), (a) the fair value of the properties (as a going concern) of the Loan Parties, taken as a whole, will exceed its debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise; (b) the present fair saleable value of the property of the Loan Parties, taken as a whole, will be greater than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liability of its debts and other liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and other liabilities become absolute and matured; (c) the Loan Parties, taken as a whole, will be able to generally pay their debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and liabilities become absolute and matured; and (d) the Loan Parties, taken as a whole, will not have unreasonably small capital with which to conduct its business in which it is engaged. 5.18. Intellectual Property. Except as set forth in Schedule 5.18: each Loan Party owns, is licensed, or is otherwise free to use, all patents, patent applications, industrial designs, industrial design applications, trademarks, trade names, service marks, copyrights, proprietary technology, trade secrets, proprietary information, domain names, and proprietary know-how and processes, necessary for the conduct of its business as currently conducted (the “Intellectual Property”), except for those which the failure to own, license or otherwise have the right to use, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. To the knowledge of each Loan Party, no claim has been asserted and is pending by any Person challenging or questioning the use of any such Intellectual Property or the validity or effectiveness of any such Intellectual Property, nor to the knowledge of each Loan Party does the use of such Intellectual Property by each Loan Party infringe the rights of any Person, except for such claims and infringements that, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 5.19. Perfection, Etc.

With respect to each Mortgaged Property that is located in an area identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (or any successor agency thereto) as a “special flood hazard area” with respect to which flood insurance has been made available under the Flood Insurance Laws, the applicable Loan Party (a) shall obtain and maintain with financially sound and reputable insurance companies (except to the extent that any insurance company insuring such Mortgaged Property of such Loan Party ceases to be financially sound and reputable

166 after the Closing Date, in which case such Loan Party shall promptly replace such insurance company with a financially sound and reputable insurance company), such flood insurance in such reasonable total amount as the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may from time to time reasonably require and otherwise sufficient to comply with all applicable rules and regulations promulgated under the Flood Insurance Laws and (b) promptly upon request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent or such Lender as applicable, evidence of such compliance in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent or such Lender, including, without limitation, evidence of annual renewals of such flood insurance. 7.6. Inspection of Property; Books and Records; Discussions. (a) (i) In the case of the U.S. Borrower, keep proper books and records in a manner to allow financial statements to be prepared in conformity with GAAP consistently applied in respect of all material financial transactions and matters involving the material assets and business of the U.S. Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole; and (ii) permit representatives of the Administrative Agent to visit and inspect any of its properties and examine and, to the extent reasonable, make abstracts from any of its books and records and to discuss the business, operations, properties and financial and other condition of the U.S. Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries with officers of the U.S. Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries and with its independent certified public accountants, in each case at any reasonable time, upon reasonable notice, and as often as may reasonably be desired; provided that representatives of the Borrower Representative may be present during any such visits, discussions and inspections. Each Borrower shall keep records of its Inventory in a manner to allow the Borrowing Base Certificate to be prepared in accordance with this Agreement. Upon the Administrative Agent’s reasonable request, the U.S. Borrower will provide a summary inventory report (based on its customary methodology and, in form and substance, as prepared for its internal purposes) no more than once per year and at a time prepared by the U.S. Borrower for its internal purposes in its ordinary course of business. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Subsection 7.2(g) or in this Subsection 7.6, none of the U.S. Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary will be required to disclose, or permit the inspection or discussion of, any document, information or other matter (i) that constitutes non- financial trade secrets or non-financial proprietary information, (ii) in respect of which disclosure to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders (or their respective representatives) is prohibited by Requirement of Law or any binding agreement or (iii) that is subject to attorney-client or similar privilege or constitutes attorney work product. (b) At reasonable times during normal business hours and upon reasonable prior notice that the Administrative Agent requests, independently of or in connection with the visits and inspections provided for in clause (a) above, the U.S. Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries will grant access to the Administrative Agent (including employees of the Administrative Agent or any consultants, accountants, lawyers and appraisers retained by the Administrative Agent) to such Person’s premises, books, records, accounts and Inventory so that (i) the Administrative Agent or an appraiser retained by the Administrative Agent may conduct an Inventory appraisal and (ii) the Administrative Agent may conduct (or engage third parties to conduct) such field examinations, verifications and evaluations (including environmental assessments) as the Administrative Agent may deem reasonably necessary or appropriate, including evaluation of the U.S. Borrower’s practices in the computation of the Borrowing Base.

167 Unless an Event of Default exists, or if previously approved by the Borrower Representative, no environmental assessment by the Administrative Agent may include any sampling or testing of the soil, surface water or groundwater. The Administrative Agent may in its reasonable discretion conduct one field examination, one Inventory appraisal and one Intellectual Property appraisal in each calendar year in each case for all of the Loan Parties each at the Loan Parties’ expense; provided that, the Administrative Agent shall in its reasonable discretion conduct at the Loan Parties’ expense, (x) up to one field examination, one Inventory appraisal and one Intellectual Property appraisal during each calendar year and (y) up to one additional field examination, one additional Inventory appraisal and/or one additional Intellectual Property appraisal in a calendar year if Excess Availability falls below the greater of (i) $93,750,000 and (ii) 15.0% of Availability for 5 consecutive Business Days at any time in such calendar year; provided, further, that the Administrative Agent may conduct in its reasonable discretion and at the Loan Parties’ expense (and without in any way limiting the Administrative Agent’s rights under the immediately preceding proviso), additional field examinations, additional Inventory appraisals and additional Intellectual Property appraisals as may be reasonably required by the Administrative Agent with respect to assets in excess of $75,000,000 acquired pursuant to a Permitted Acquisition that are of the type that are included in the Borrowing Base but that have not yet been subject to a field examination, Inventory appraisal or Intellectual Property appraisal (as applicable) in accordance with this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may cause such additional field examinations, Inventory appraisals and/or Intellectual Property appraisals to be taken for each of the Loan Parties as the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion determines are necessary or appropriate (each, at the expense of the Loan Parties). All amounts chargeable to the applicable Borrowers under this Subsection 7.6(b) shall constitute obligations that are secured by all of the applicable Collateral and shall be payable to the Agents hereunder. 7.7.

For purposes of determining compliance with any dollar denominated restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, the dollar equivalent principal amount of such Indebtedness incurred pursuant thereto shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date that such Indebtedness was incurred, in the case of term Indebtedness, or first committed, in the case of revolving or deferred draw Indebtedness; provided that (x) the dollar equivalent principal amount of any such Indebtedness outstanding on the Closing Date shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the Closing Date, (y) if such Indebtedness is incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency (or in a different currency from such Indebtedness so being incurred), and such refinancing would cause the applicable dollar denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such dollar denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed (i) the outstanding or committed principal amount (whichever is higher) of such Indebtedness being refinanced plus (ii) the aggregate amount of fees, underwriting discounts, premiums and other costs and expenses (including accrued and unpaid interest) incurred or payable in connection with such refinancing and (z) the dollar equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency and incurred pursuant to this Agreement shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on, at the Borrower Representative’s option, (A) the Closing Date, (B) any date on which any of the respective commitments under this Agreement shall be reallocated between or among facilities or subfacilities thereunder, or on which such rate is otherwise calculated for any purpose thereunder, or (C) the date of such Incurrence. The principal amount of any Indebtedness incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such respective Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing. 8.14.

(b) Except as expressly provided above in this Article 9, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, presentment, demand, protest and all other notices of any kind are hereby expressly waived. 9.3. Borrower’s Right to Cure.

If, after giving effect to the foregoing pro forma adjustment (without giving effect to any repayment of any Indebtedness with any portion of the Cure Amount or any portion of the Cure Amount on the balance sheet of the U.S. Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, in each case, with respect to such Fiscal Quarter only), the U.S. Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall then be in compliance with the requirements of Subsection 8.1, they shall be deemed to have been in compliance therewith as of the relevant date of determination with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply therewith at such date, and the applicable breach or default hereunder that had occurred shall be deemed cured for the purposes of this Agreement. (b) The parties hereby acknowledge that notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, (i) the Cure Amount received pursuant to the occurrence of any Specified Equity Contribution shall be disregarded for purposes of calculating EBITDA in any determination of any financial ratio-based conditions (other than as applicable to Subsection 8.1), pricing or basket under Article 8 and (ii) no Lender or Issuing Lender shall be required to make any Extension of Credit hereunder, if an Event of Default under the covenant set forth in Subsection 8.1 has occurred and is continuing, (x) during the 10 Business Day period during which a Specified Equity Contribution may be made, or (y) on the date on which a Borrowing Base Certificate is delivered and on which a Specified Equity Contribution may be made (in each case as provided in the definition of Specified Equity Contribution), unless and until the Cure Amount is actually received.

(b) Each of the Agents may perform any of their respective duties under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any other instruments and agreements referred to herein or therein by or through its respective officers, directors, agents, employees or affiliates, or delegate any and all such rights and powers to, any one or more sub-agents appointed by such Agent (it being understood and agreed, for avoidance of doubt and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, that the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may perform any of their respective duties under the Security Documents by or through one or more of their respective affiliates). Each Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article 10 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of each Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Agent.

(d) Without limiting the powers of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, for the purposes of holding any hypothecs granted by any of the Loan Parties under the laws of the Province of Québec pursuant to the Security Documents, each of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent and, to the extent necessary, ratifies the appointment and authorization of the Administrative Agent to act as the hypothecary representative of all present and future Lenders and the Issuing Lenders for all purposes of Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Québec (the “Hypothecary Representative”).

Any person who becomes a Lender or an Issuing Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, shall be deemed to have consented to and confirmed the Administrative Agent as the person acting as Hypothecary Representative holding the aforesaid hypothecs as aforesaid and to have ratified as of the date it becomes a Lender or an Issuing Lender, all actions taken by the Administrative Agent in such capacity. The substitution of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Article 10 shall also constitute the substitution of the Administrative Agent as Hypothecary Representative as aforesaid without any further act or formality being required to appoint such successor Administrative Agent as the successor Hypothecary Representative for the purposes of any then existing deeds of hypothec. 10.2. The Administrative Agent and Affiliates. Each person serving as an Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include each person serving as an 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 Holdings, the U.S. Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such person were not an Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders. 10.3. Action by an Agent. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement, each Agent shall act solely as an agent for the Lenders and, as applicable, the other Secured Parties, and no Agent assumes any (and shall not be deemed to have assumed any) relationship of agency or trust with or for the U.S. Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries. Each Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact (including the Collateral Agent in the case of the Administrative Agent), and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. No Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact or counsel selected by it with reasonable care. 10.4. Exculpatory Provisions. No Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no Agent: (a) shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing; (b) shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that such Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the

200 Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that such Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its judgment or the judgment of its counsel, may expose such Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Requirement of Law; and (c) shall, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrowers or any of their Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the person serving as such Agent or any of its affiliates in any capacity. (d) No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (x) 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 such Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Subsection 9.2 or 11.1, as applicable) or (y) in the absence of its own bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to such Agent by a Borrower, a Lender or an Issuing Lender. (e) No Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created by the Security Documents (including any recording of financing statements or the lapse or expiration thereof) or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article 6 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement with reference to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term as used merely as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. (f) Each party to this Agreement acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agent may use an outside service provider for the tracking of all UCC and PPSA financing statements required to be filed pursuant to the Loan Documents and notification to the Administrative Agent, of, among other things, the upcoming lapse or expiration thereof, and that any such service provider will be deemed to be acting at the request and on behalf of the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties. No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by any such service provider (g) Each Lender hereby agrees that (i) the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) provide services in its sole discretion to assist the Borrowers in determining the Borrowing Base (or any component thereof) at any time, (ii) the Administrative Agent may cease providing such services at any time in its sole discretion, (iii) neither the Administrative

201 Agent’s decision to provide (or not provide) such services at any time shall, nor shall any aspect of the provision of such services, constitute gross negligence, willful misconduct, bad faith or a material breach of the Administrative Agent’s obligations for purposes of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and (iv) regardless of whether such services are provided, the Borrowers shall at all times be solely responsible for (A) the timely delivery of each Borrowing Base Certificate and all supporting information as required by this Agreement and (B) each calculation, and the accuracy of all information, contained in each Borrowing Base Certificate. The Administrative Agent shall have no liability to the Borrowers, any Lender, or any other Person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for (x) any error, omission or inaccuracy in any Borrowing Base Certificate or (y) any failure of the Borrowers to deliver a Borrowing Base Certificate or any supporting information as required by this Agreement. (h) The Lenders acknowledge that there may be a constant flow of information (including information which may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of the Loan Parties) between the Loan Parties and their Affiliates, on the one hand, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and its Affiliates, on the other hand. Without limiting the foregoing, the Loan Parties or their Affiliates may provide information, including updates to previously provided information to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and/or its Affiliates acting in different capacities, including as Lender, lead bank, arranger or potential securities investor, independent of such entity’s role as administrative agent hereunder. The Lenders acknowledge that neither JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. nor its Affiliates shall be under any obligation to provide any of the foregoing information to them. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or in any other Loan Document, except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent herein, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide, and shall not be liable for the failure to provide, any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the Loans, the Lenders, the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any of the Loan Parties or any of their respective Affiliates that is communicated to, obtained by, or in the possession of, the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity, including any information obtained by the Administrative Agent in the course of communications among the Administrative Agent and any Loan Party, any Affiliate thereof or any other Person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such information may (but shall not be required to) be shared by the Administrative Agent with one or more Lenders, or any formal or informal committee or ad hoc group of such Lenders, including at the direction of a Loan Party 10.5. Acknowledgement and Representations by Lenders. Each Lender and each Issuing Lender expressly acknowledges that none of the Agents or the Other Representatives nor any of their officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by any Agent or any Other Representative hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the U.S. Borrower or any other Loan Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by such Agent or such Other Representative to any Lender. Each Lender further represents and warrants to the Agents, the Other Representatives and each of the Loan Parties that it has had the opportunity to review each document made available to it on the Platform in connection with this Agreement and has acknowledged and accepted the terms and conditions applicable to the recipients thereof. Each

202 Lender and each Issuing Lender represents to the Agents, the Other Representatives and each of the Loan Parties that, independently and without reliance upon any Agent, the Other Representatives or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, it has made and will make, its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Holdings and the U.S. Borrower and the other Loan Parties, it has made its own decision to make its Loans or issue Letters of Credit hereunder and enter into this Agreement and it will make its own decisions in taking or not taking any action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, neither the Agents nor any Other Representative shall have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender or the holder of any Note with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of the Loans or at any time or times thereafter.

Indemnity; Reimbursement by Lenders. (a) To the extent that the U.S. Borrower or any other Loan Party for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under Subsection 11.5 to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the Collateral Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the Issuing Lenders, the Swingline Lender or any Other Representative or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay ratably according to their respective Commitment Percentages in effect on the date on which the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought under this Subsection 10.6 (or, if the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with their Commitment Percentages, immediately prior to such date) such unpaid amount (such indemnity shall be effective whether or not the related losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses are incurred or asserted by any party hereto or any third party); provided that (i) the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the Collateral Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Lenders in their capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the Collateral Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the Swingline Lender or Issuing Lenders in connection with such capacity and (ii) such indemnity for the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Lenders shall not include losses incurred by the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Lenders due to one or more Lenders defaulting in their obligations to purchase participations of Swingline Exposure under Subsections 2.4(c) and 2.4(d) or L/C Obligations under Subsection 3.4 (it being understood that this proviso shall not affect the Swingline Lender’s or any Issuing Lender’s rights against any Defaulting Lender). The obligations of the Lenders under this Subsection 10.6 are subject to the provisions of Subsection 4.8.

203 (b) Any Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action hereunder and under any other Loan Document (except actions expressly required to be taken by it hereunder or under the Loan Documents) unless it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders pro rata against any and all liability, cost and expense that it may incur by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. (c) All amounts due under this Subsection 10.6 shall be payable not later than three Business Days after demand therefor. The agreements in this Subsection 10.6 shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 10.7. Right to Request and Act on Instructions. (a) Each Agent may at any time request instructions from the Lenders with respect to any actions or approvals which by the terms of this Agreement or of any of the Loan Documents an Agent is permitted or desires to take or to grant, and if such instructions are promptly requested, the requesting Agent shall be absolutely entitled as between itself and the Lenders to refrain from taking any action or to withhold any approval and shall not be under any liability whatsoever to any Lender for refraining from any action or withholding any approval under any of the Loan Documents until it shall have received such instructions from the Required Lenders or all or such other portion of the Lenders as shall be prescribed by this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against any Agent as a result of an Agent acting or refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders (or all or such other portion of the Lenders as shall be prescribed by this Agreement) and, notwithstanding the instructions of the Required Lenders (or such other applicable portion of the Lenders), an Agent shall have no obligation to any Lender to take any action if it believes, in good faith, that such action would violate applicable law or exposes an Agent to any liability for which it has not received satisfactory indemnification in accordance with the provisions of Subsection 10.6.

Each Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or such Issuing Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or such Issuing Lender prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall be entitled to rely upon the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with such advice. 10.8.

Each Lender agrees that it will not have any right individually to enforce or seek to enforce any Security Document or to realize upon any Collateral for the Loans unless instructed to do so by the Collateral Agent, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised only by the Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent may grant extensions of time for the creation and perfection of security interests in or the obtaining of title insurance, legal opinions or other deliverables with respect to particular assets or the provision of any guarantee by any Subsidiary (including extensions beyond the Closing Date or in connection with assets acquired, or Subsidiaries formed or acquired, after the Closing Date) where it determines that such action cannot be accomplished without undue effort or expense by the time or times at which it would otherwise be required to be accomplished by this Agreement or the Security Documents. (b) The Lenders hereby authorize each Agent, in each case at its option and in its discretion, (A) to release any Lien granted to or held by such Agent upon any Collateral (i) upon termination of the Commitments and payment and satisfaction of all of the Obligations under the Loan Documents at any time arising under or in respect of this Agreement or the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby that are then due and unpaid, (ii) constituting property being sold or otherwise disposed of (to Persons other than a Loan Party) upon the sale or other disposition thereof, (iii) owned by any Subsidiary Guarantor that becomes an Excluded Subsidiary or ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the U.S. Borrower or constituting Capital Stock or other equity interests of an Excluded Subsidiary; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall such release be authorized hereunder if such Person becomes an Excluded Subsidiary by virtue of less than all of the Capital Stock of such Person being disposed of or otherwise transferred unless the acquiror of such Capital Stock is not an Affiliate of any Loan Party and such transfer is consummated for purposes other than avoiding the credit support

205 obligations provided for in the Loan Documents, (iv) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders (or such greater amount, to the extent required by Subsection 11.1) or (v) as otherwise may be expressly provided in the relevant Security Documents, (B) at the written request of the Borrower Representative to subordinate any Lien (or confirm the absence of any Lien) on any Excluded Assets or any other property granted to or held by such Agent, as the case may be under any Loan Document, to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Subsection 8.14 and (other than in the case of Liens on Excluded Assets) is permitted thereby to be incurred or exist on a senior basis to the Lien held by such Agent under any Loan Document and (C) to release any Subsidiary Guarantor from its Obligations under any Loan Documents to which it is a party if such Person ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the U.S. Borrower or becomes an Excluded Subsidiary; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall such release be authorized hereunder if such Person becomes an Excluded Subsidiary by virtue of less than all of the Capital Stock of such Person being disposed of or otherwise transferred unless the acquiror of such Capital Stock is not an Affiliate of any Loan Party and such transfer is consummated for purposes other than avoiding the credit support obligations provided for in the Loan Documents. Upon request by any Agent, at any time, the Required Lenders or all or such other portion of the Lenders as shall be prescribed by this Agreement will confirm in writing any Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Subsection 10.8. (c) The Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, as the case may be, in each case at its option and in its discretion, to enter into any amendment, amendment and restatement, restatement, waiver, supplement or modification, and to make or consent to any filings or to take any other actions, in each case as contemplated by Subsection 11.17. Upon request by any Agent, at any time, the Required Lenders or all or such other portion of the Lenders as shall be prescribed by this Agreement will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s and the Collateral Agent’s authority under this Subsection 10.8(c). (d) No Agent shall have any obligation whatsoever to the Lenders to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by Holdings, the U.S. Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or is cared for, protected or insured or that the Liens granted to any Agent herein or pursuant hereto have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise or to continue exercising at all or in any manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to the Agents in this Subsection 10.8 or in any of the Security Documents, it being understood and agreed by the Lenders that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, each Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, given such Agent’s own interest in the Collateral as a Lender and that no Agent shall have any duty or liability whatsoever to the Lenders, except for its bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct. (e) Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, any Security Document may be amended (or amended and restated), restated, waived, supplemented or modified as contemplated by and in accordance with either Subsection 11.1 or 11.17, as applicable, with the written consent of the Agent party thereto and the Loan Parties party thereto. (f) The Collateral Agent may, and hereby does, appoint the Administrative Agent as its agent for the purposes of holding any Collateral and/or perfecting the Collateral

206 Agent’s security interest therein and for the purpose of taking such other action with respect to the collateral as such Agents may from time to time agree. (g) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not enter into any Mortgage in respect of any real property acquired by any Loan Party after the Closing Date until the date that is (a) if such Mortgaged Property relates to a property not located in a “special flood hazard area”, ten (10) Business Days or (b) if such Mortgaged Property relates to a property located in a “special flood hazard area”, thirty (30) days, after the Administrative Agent has delivered to the Lenders the following documents in respect of such real property: (i) a completed flood hazard determination from a third party vendor; (ii) if such real property is located in a “special flood hazard area”, (A) a notification to the applicable Loan Parties of that fact and (if applicable) notification to the applicable Loan Parties that flood insurance coverage is not available and (B) evidence of the receipt by the applicable Loan Parties of such notice; and (iii) if required by Flood Laws, evidence of required flood insurance and (2) the Administrative Agent shall have received written confirmation from the Lenders that flood insurance due diligence and flood insurance compliance has been completed by the Lenders (such written confirmation not to be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed. 10.9. Successor Agent. Subject to the right of the Borrower Representative or the Required Lenders to appoint a successor during the notice periods set forth herein, (i) the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent may be removed by the Borrower Representative or the Required Lenders if the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, or a controlling affiliate of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent is a Defaulting Lender, upon 10 days’ notice to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable and (ii) the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may resign as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, respectively, upon 30 days’ notice to the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Borrower Representative. If the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent shall be removed by the Borrower Representative or the Required Lenders pursuant to clause (i) above or if the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which such successor agent shall be subject to approval by the Borrower Representative; provided that such approval by the Borrower Representative in connection with the appointment of any successor Administrative Agent shall only be required so long as no Event of Default under Subsection 9.1(a) or 9.1(f) has occurred and is continuing; provided, further, that the Borrower Representative shall not unreasonably withhold its approval of any successor Administrative Agent if such successor is an Approved Commercial Bank. If no successor Administrative Agent has been appointed pursuant to the foregoing by, in the case of clause (i) above, the 10th after the date such notice of removal was given by the Borrower Representative or the Required Lenders, or, in the case of clause (ii) above, the 30th after the date such notice of resignation was given by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent’s or Collateral Agent’s removal or resignation, as applicable, shall nonetheless become effective and the Required Lenders shall thereafter perform all the duties of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, hereunder or under any other Loan Document until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent as provided above. Upon the successful appointment of a successor agent, such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, and the term

207 “Administrative Agent” or “Collateral Agent”, as applicable, shall mean such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any holders of the Loans or issuers of Letters of Credit. After any retiring Agent’s resignation or removal as Agent, the provisions of this Article 10 (including this Subsection 10.9) shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. After the resignation or removal of any Administrative Agent pursuant to the preceding provisions of this Subsection 10.9, such resigning or removed Administrative Agent (x) shall not be required to act as Issuing Lender for any Letters of Credit to be issued after the date of such resignation or removal (and all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the resigning Issuing Lender shall be paid in full upon its resignation or removal) and (y) shall not be required to act as Swingline Lender with respect to Swingline Loans to be made after the date of such resignation or removal (and all outstanding Swingline Loans of such resigning or removed Administrative Agent shall be required to be repaid in full upon its resignation or removal), although the resigning or removed Administrative Agent shall retain all rights hereunder as Issuing Lender and Swingline Lender with respect to all Letters of Credit issued by it, and all Swingline Loans made by it, prior to the effectiveness of its resignation or removal as Administrative Agent hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrower Representative to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower Representative and such successor. 10.10. Swingline Lender. The provisions of this Article 10 shall apply to the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such to the same extent that such provisions apply to the Administrative Agent. 10.11. Withholding Tax. To the extent required by any applicable law, each Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding tax, and in no event shall such Agent be required to be responsible for or pay any additional amount with respect to any such withholding. If the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that any Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed or because such Lender failed to notify such Agent of a change in circumstances which rendered the exemption from or reduction of withholding tax ineffective or for any other reason, without limiting the provisions of Subsection 4.11(a) or 4.12, such Lender shall indemnify such Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by such Agent as tax or otherwise, including any penalties or interest and together with any expenses incurred and shall make payable in respect thereof within 30 days after demand therefor. 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 this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due the Administrative Agent under this Subsection 10.11. The agreements in this Subsection 10.11 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations. For purposes of this Subsection 10.11, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Lender.

208 10.12. Other Representatives. None of the entities identified as bookrunners and lead arrangers pursuant to the definition of Other Representative contained herein, shall have any duties or responsibilities hereunder or under any other Loan Document in its capacity as such. Without limiting the foregoing, no Other Representative shall have nor be deemed to have a fiduciary relationship with any Lender. At any time that any Lender serving as an Other Representative shall have transferred to any other Person (other than any of its affiliates) all of its interests in the Loans and in the Commitments, such Lender shall be deemed to have concurrently resigned as such Other Representative. 10.13. Appointment of Borrower Representatives. Each Borrower hereby designates the U.S. Borrower as its Borrower Representative. The Borrower Representative will be acting as agent on each Borrower’s behalf for the purposes of issuing notices of Borrowing and notices of conversion/continuation of any Loans pursuant to Article 2 and Article 4 or similar notices, giving instructions with respect to the disbursement of the proceeds of the Loans, selecting interest rate options, requesting Letters of Credit, giving and receiving all other notices and consents hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents and taking all other actions (including in respect of compliance with covenants) on behalf of any Borrower or the Borrowers under the Loan Documents. The Borrower Representative hereby accepts such appointment. Each Borrower agrees that each notice, election, representation and warranty, covenant, agreement and undertaking made on its behalf by the Borrower Representative shall be deemed for all purposes to have been made by such Borrower and shall be binding upon and enforceable against such Borrower to the same extent as if the same had been made directly by such Borrower. 10.14. Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any bankruptcy proceeding or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrowers) is hereby authorized by the Lenders, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise: (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Subsections 4.5 and 11.5) allowed in such judicial proceeding; (b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, if the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the

209 Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Subsections 4.5 and 11.5. 10.15. Application of Proceeds. The Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent agree, as among such parties, as follows: subject to the terms of any Junior Lien Intercreditor Agreement or any Other Intercreditor Agreement, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all amounts collected or received by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Lender on account of amounts then due and outstanding under any of the Loan Documents shall, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, be applied as follows: first, to pay interest on and then principal of Agent Advances then outstanding, second, to pay interest on and then principal of Swingline Loans then outstanding, third, to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees to the extent provided herein) due and owing hereunder of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent in connection with enforcing the rights of the Agents, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders under the Loan Documents (including all expenses of sale or other realization of or in respect of the Collateral and any sums advanced to the Collateral Agent or to preserve its security interest in the Collateral), fourth, to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees to the extent provided herein) due and owing hereunder of each of the Lenders and each of the Issuing Lenders in connection with enforcing such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s rights under the Loan Documents, fifth, to pay (on a ratable basis) (A) interest on and then principal of Revolving Credit Loans then outstanding and any Reimbursement Obligations then outstanding, and to cash collateralize any outstanding L/C Obligations on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and (B) any outstanding obligations payable under (i) Designated Cash Management Agreements, up to the amount of Designated Cash Management Reserves then in effect with respect thereto and (ii) Designated Hedging Agreements up to the amount of Designated Hedging Reserves then in effect with respect thereto, sixth, to pay obligations under Cash Management Arrangements with any Cash Management Party (other than pursuant to any Designated Cash Management Agreements, but including any amounts not paid pursuant to clause “fifth”(B)(i) above), and Permitted Hedging Arrangements (other than pursuant to any Designated Hedging Agreements, but including any amounts not paid pursuant to clause “fifth”(B)(ii) above) permitted hereunder and secured by the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, seventh, to pay obligations under the Incremental FILO Facility (if any) and eighth, to pay the surplus, if any, to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus. To the extent that any amounts available for distribution pursuant to clause “fifth” above are attributable to the issued but undrawn amount of outstanding Letters of Credit which are then not yet required to be reimbursed hereunder, such amounts shall be held by the Collateral Agent in a cash collateral account and applied (x) first, to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender from time to time for any drawings under such Letters of Credit and (y) then, following the expiration of all Letters of Credit, to all other obligations of the types described in such clause “fifth”. To the extent any amounts available for distribution pursuant to clause “fifth” are insufficient to pay all obligations described therein in full, such moneys shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders and Issuing Lenders based on their respective Commitment Percentages. This Subsection 10.15 may be amended (and the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into any such amendment) to the extent necessary to reflect differing amounts payable, and priorities of payments, to Lenders participating in any new classes or tranches of loans added pursuant to Subsection 2.6.

210 Notwithstanding the foregoing, Excluded Obligations (as defined in the applicable Guarantee and Collateral Agreements) with respect to any Guarantor shall not be paid with amounts received from such Guarantor or its assets. 10.16. No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. (a) In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby, each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Affiliates’ understanding, that: (i) the facilities provided for hereunder and any related arranging or other services in connection therewith (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document) are an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Borrowers and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers and the Lenders, on the other hand, and each Borrower is capable of evaluating and understanding and understands and accepts the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents (including any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or thereof); (ii) in connection with the process leading to such transaction, each of the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers and the Lenders is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the financial advisor, agent or fiduciary, for any Borrower or any of their respective Affiliates, stockholders, creditors or employees or any other Person; (iii) none of the Administrative Agents, the Lead Arrangers or the Lenders has assumed or will assume an advisory, agency or fiduciary responsibility in favor of any Borrower with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto, including with respect to any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document (irrespective of whether any Lead Arranger or Lender has advised or is currently advising any Borrower or any of their respective Affiliates on other matters) and none of the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers or the Lenders has any obligation to any Borrower or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to the financing transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; (iv) the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Lead Arrangers and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from, and may conflict with, those of the Borrowers and their respective Affiliates, and none of the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers or the Lenders has any obligation to disclose any of such interests by virtue of any advisory, agency or fiduciary relationship; and (v) the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers and the Lenders have not provided and will not provide any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby (including any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document) and the Loan Parties have consulted their own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent they have deemed appropriate. Each Loan Party agrees that it will not assert any claim against the Administrative Agent, any Lead Arranger or any Lender based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by the Administrative Agent, such Lead Arranger or such Lender in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. (b) Each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agent, each Lender, each Lead Arranger and any Affiliate thereof may lend money to, invest in, and generally engage in any kind of business with any of the Borrowers, any Affiliate thereof, or any other Person that may do business with or own securities of any of the foregoing, all as if the Administrative Agent, such Lead Arranger, such Lender or Affiliate thereof were not the

211 Administrative Agent, a Lead Arranger or a Lender or an Affiliate thereof (or an agent or any other person with any similar role under the Facilities) and without any duty to account therefor to any other Lender, any Borrower or any Affiliate of the foregoing. Each Lender, each Lead Arranger, the Administrative Agent and any Affiliate thereof may accept fees and other consideration from any Borrower or any Affiliate thereof for services in connection with this Agreement, the Facilities or otherwise without having to account for the same to any other Lender, any other Lead Arranger, the Administrative Agent, any Borrower or any Affiliate of the foregoing. 10.17. Know Your Customer Information. Each Secured Party shall, promptly following a request by the Administrative Agent, provide all documentation and other information that the Administrative Agent has reasonably determined is required in order to comply with its ongoing obligations under applicable “know your customer” provisions and similar provisions of anti-money laundering rules and regulations.

(g) If, in connection with any proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination of or to any of the provisions of this Agreement and/or any other Loan Document as contemplated by Subsection 11.1(a), the consent of the Supermajority Lenders, each Lender or each affected Lender, as applicable, is required and the consent of the Required Lenders at such time is obtained but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained (each such other Lender, a “Non-Consenting Lender”) then the Borrower Representative may, on notice to the Administrative Agent and any relevant Non-Consenting Lender, (A) replace such Non-Consenting Lender by causing such Lender to (and such Lender shall be obligated to) assign pursuant to Subsection 11.6 (with the assignment fee and any other costs and expenses to be paid by applicable Borrowers in such instance) all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more assignees; provided that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to the Borrower Representative to find a replacement Lender; provided, further, that the applicable assignee shall have agreed to the applicable change, waiver, discharge or termination of this Agreement and/or the other Loan Documents; and provided, further, that all obligations of the Borrowers owing to the Non- Consenting Lender relating to the Loans and participations so assigned shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender (or, at its option, by a Borrower) to such Non-Consenting Lender concurrently

215 with such Assignment and Acceptance or (B) so long as no Event of Default under Subsection 9.1(a) or 9.1(f) then exists or will exist immediately after giving effect to the respective prepayment, prepay the Loans and, at the Borrower Representative’s option, terminate the Commitments of such Non-Consenting Lender, in whole or in part, subject to Subsection 4.12, without premium or penalty. In connection with any such replacement under this Subsection 11.1(g), if the Non-Consenting Lender does not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance and/or any other documentation necessary to reflect such replacement by the later of (a) the date on which the replacement Lender executes and delivers such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation and (b) the date as of which all obligations of the Borrowers owing to the Non-Consenting Lender relating to the Loans and participations so assigned shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender to such Non-Consenting Lender, then such Non-Consenting Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation as of such date and the applicable Borrower shall be entitled (but not obligated) to execute and deliver such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation on behalf of such Non-Consenting Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall record such assignment in the Register. (h) Upon the execution by the U.S. Borrower and delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Borrower Termination with respect to any Subsidiary Borrower, such Subsidiary Borrower shall cease to be a Borrower; provided that the Borrower Termination shall not be effective (other than to terminate its right to borrow additional Revolving Credit Loans under this Agreement) unless (x) another Borrower shall remain liable for the principal of and interest on any Loan to such Subsidiary Borrower and (y) if such Borrower owned any assets constituting Collateral, it shall upon such Borrower Termination become a Subsidiary Guarantor, in each case on terms and conditions reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. In the event that a Subsidiary Borrower shall cease to be a Subsidiary of the U.S. Borrower, the U.S. Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a Borrower Termination terminating its status as a Borrower, subject to the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence. 11.2.

The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law. 11.4. Survival of Representations and Warranties.

219 provided that the Borrowers shall not have any obligation hereunder to any Lead Arranger, any Other Representative, any Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), any Issuing Lender or any Lender (or any Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons) with respect to Indemnified Liabilities arising from (i) the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of any such Lead Arranger or any such Other Representative or Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), Issuing Lender or Lender (or any Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons), as the case may be, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision, (ii) a material breach of the Loan Documents by any Lead Arranger or any such Other Representative or Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), Issuing Lender or Lender (or any Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons), as the case may be, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision, or (iii) claims against such Indemnitee or any Related Party brought by any other Indemnitee that do not involve claims against any Lead Arranger or any Agent in its capacity as such. None of the Borrowers nor any Indemnitee shall be liable for any indirect, special, punitive or consequential damages hereunder; provided that nothing contained in this sentence shall limit the Borrowers’ indemnity or reimbursement obligations under this Subsection 11.5 to the extent such indirect, special, punitive or consequential damages are included in any third-party claim in connection with which such Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification hereunder. All amounts due under this Subsection 11.5 shall be payable not later than 30 days after written demand therefor. Statements reflecting amounts payable by the Loan Parties pursuant to this Subsection 11.5 shall be submitted to the address of the Borrower Representative set forth in Subsection 11.2, or to such other Person or address as may be hereafter designated by the Borrower Representative in a notice to the Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, except as provided in Subsection 11.5(c) above, no Borrower shall have any obligation under this Subsection 11.5 to any Indemnitee with respect to any tax, levy, impost, duty, charge, fee, deduction or withholding imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority. The agreements in this Subsection 11.5 shall survive repayment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. 11.6. Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any affiliate of the applicable Issuing Lender that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) other than in accordance with Subsection 8.2, none of the Loan Parties may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by any Loan Party without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with Subsection 4.13(d), Subsection 4.15(c), Subsection 11.1(g) and this Subsection 11.6. (a) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in Subsection 11.6(a)(ii) below, any Lender other than a Conduit Lender may, in the ordinary course of business and in accordance with applicable law, assign (other than to a Disqualified Lender (unless the Borrower Representative shall have otherwise expressly consented in writing to such assignment), to any natural person, holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of a natural person, to Holdings, the U.S. Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries) to one or more assignees (each, an “Assignee”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including its Commitments and/or Loans, pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance) with the prior written consent of:

220 (A) the U.S. Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided that consent of the U.S. Borrower shall be deemed given if no written objection is delivered to the Agent within 10 Business Days of being notified; provided, further that no consent of the U.S. Borrower shall be required for an assignment if (1) an Event of Default under Subsection 9.1(a) or 9.1(f) has occurred and is continuing or (2) if the proposed Assignee is a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender; and (B) the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). (b) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions: (A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitments or Loans under the Facility, the amount of the Commitments or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that (1) no such consent of the Borrower Representative shall be required if an Event of Default under Subsection 9.1(a) or 9.1(f) with respect to the U.S. Borrower or the Canadian Borrower has occurred and is continuing and (2) such amounts shall be aggregated in respect of each Lender and its Affiliates, if any; (B) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (unless waived by the Administrative Agent in any given case); provided that for concurrent assignments to two or more Lenders or Affiliates of a Lender, such assignment fee shall only be required to be paid once in respect of and at the time of such assignments; and (C) the Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire and such documentation and other information that the Administrative Agent has reasonably determined is required in order to comply with its ongoing obligations under applicable “know your customer” provisions and similar provisions of anti-money laundering rules and regulations. (c) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to clause (d) below, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the

221 assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of (and bound by any related obligations under) Subsections 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.15 and 11.5, and bound by its continuing obligations under Subsection 11.16). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with Subsection 4.13(d), Subsection 4.15(c), Subsection 11.1(g) and this Subsection 11.6 shall, to the extent it would comply with Subsection 11.6(c), be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with clause (c) of this Subsection 11.6. (d) The Borrowers hereby collectively designate the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent agrees, to serve as the Borrowers’ non-fiduciary agent, solely for purposes of this Subsection 11.6, to maintain at one of its offices in New York, New York a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and interest and principal amounts of the Loans and L/C Obligations owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Multicurrency Sub-Facility Register” and the “U.S. Dollar Facility Register”, each, the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers, the Issuing Lender and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any assignment by a Lender to a Disqualified Lender, the Borrowers shall be entitled to pursue any remedy available to them (whether at law or in equity, including specific performance to unwind such assignment) against the Lender and such Disqualified Lender. In no event shall the Administrative Agent be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any prospective assignee is a Disqualified Lender and shall have no liability in respect thereof. (e) Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting for itself and, solely for this purpose, as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans, Commitments or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary (x) to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations or (y) for any Borrower to enforce its rights hereunder. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and a 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. This Subsection 11.6(d) and Subsection 11.6(e) shall be construed so that the commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation under any Loan Document are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meanings of Sections 163(f),

222 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code and any Treasury Regulations (and any successor provisions) promulgated thereunder, including, without limitation, Treasury Regulations Sections 5f.103-1(c) and 1.871-14. (f) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender (unless such assignment is being made in accordance with Subsection 4.13(d), Subsection 4.15(c), or Subsection 11.1(g), in which case the effectiveness of such Assignment and Acceptance shall not require execution by the assigning Lender) and an Assignee, the Assignee’s completed administrative questionnaire (unless the Assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in this Subsection 11.6(b) and any written consent to such assignment required by this Subsection 11.6(b), the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance, 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 clause (vi). (g) On or prior to the effective date of any assignment pursuant to this Subsection 11.6(b), the assigning Lender shall surrender to the Administrative Agent any outstanding Notes held by it evidencing Loans or Commitments, as applicable, which are being assigned. Any Notes surrendered by the assigning Lender shall be returned by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower Representative marked “cancelled”. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Subsection 11.6(b) or any other provision of this Agreement, if the Borrower Representative shall have consented thereto in writing in its sole discretion, the Administrative Agent shall have the right, but not the obligation, to effectuate assignments of Loans and Commitments via an electronic settlement system acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative as designated in writing from time to time to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent (the “Settlement Service”). At any time when the Administrative Agent elects, in its sole discretion, to implement such Settlement Service, each such assignment shall be effected by the assigning Lender and proposed Assignee pursuant to the procedures then in effect under the Settlement Service, which procedures shall be subject to the prior written approval of the Borrower Representative and shall be consistent with the other provisions of this Subsection 11.6(b). Each assigning Lender and proposed Assignee shall comply with the requirements of the Settlement Service in connection with effecting any assignment of Loans and Commitments pursuant to the Settlement Service. Assignments and assumptions of the Loans and Commitments shall be effected by the provisions otherwise set forth herein until the Administrative Agent notifies the Lenders of the Settlement Service as set forth herein. The Borrower Representative may withdraw its consent to the use of the Settlement Service at any time upon notice to the Administrative Agent, and thereafter assignments and assumptions of the Loans and Commitments shall be effected by the provisions otherwise set forth herein. Furthermore, no Assignee, which as of the date of any assignment to it pursuant to this Subsection 11.6(b) would be entitled to receive any greater payment under Subsection 4.10, 4.11, 4.12 or 11.5 than the assigning Lender would have been entitled to receive as of such date under such Subsections with respect to the rights assigned, shall, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, be entitled to receive such greater payments unless the assignment was made after an Event of Default under Subsection 9.1(a) or 9.1(f) has occurred and is continuing or

223 the Borrower Representative has expressly consented in writing to waive the benefit of this provision at the time of such assignment. (h) (i) Any Lender other than a Conduit Lender may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with applicable law, without the consent of the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent, sell participations (other than to any Disqualified Lender, or a natural person or the U.S. Borrower or any of the U.S. Borrower’s Affiliates or its Subsidiaries) to one or more banks or other entities (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, (C) such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Loan for all purposes under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (D) the Borrowers, the Borrower Representative, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender 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 pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, supplement, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, supplement, modification or waiver that (1) requires the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby pursuant to clause (i) or (iii) of the second proviso to the second sentence of Subsection 11.1(a) and (2) directly affects such Participant. Subject to Subsection 11.6(b)(ii), each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of (and shall have the related obligations under) Subsections 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.15 and 11.5 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Subsection 11.6(b); provided that the participating Lender shall cease to be entitled to such benefits with respect to the portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement subject to the participation as if such Lender had assigned its interest pursuant to Subsection 11.6(b). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Subsection 11.7(b) as though it were a Lender, provided that such Participant shall be subject to Subsection 11.7(a) as though it were a Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender shall be permitted to sell participations under this Agreement to any Disqualified Lender and any such participation shall be void ab initio, except to the extent the Borrower Representative has consented to such participation in writing (in which case such Lender will not be considered a Disqualified Lender solely for that particular participation). Any attempted participation which does not comply with Subsection 11.6 shall be null and void. (i) No Loan Party shall be obligated to make any greater payment under Subsection 4.10, 4.11, 4.12 or 11.5 than it would have been obligated to make in the absence of any participation, unless the sale of such participation is made with the prior written consent of the Borrower Representative and the Borrower Representative expressly waives the benefit of this provision at the time of such participation. No Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Subsection 4.11 unless such Participant complies with Subsection 4.11(b) and provides the forms and certificates referenced therein to the Lender that granted such participation. (j) Any Lender, without the consent of the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent, may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of

224 its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or central bank of a member state of the European Union, and this Subsection 11.6 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 a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute (by foreclosure or otherwise) any such pledgee or Assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. (k) No assignment or participation made or purported to be made to any Assignee or Participant shall be effective without the prior written consent of the Borrower Representative if it would require any Borrower to make any filing with any Governmental Authority or qualify any Loan or Note under the laws of any jurisdiction, and the Borrower Representative shall be entitled to request and receive such information and assurances as it may reasonably request from any Lender or any Assignee or Participant to determine whether any such filing or qualification is required or whether any assignment or participation is otherwise in accordance with applicable law. (l) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Conduit Lender may assign any or all of the Loans it may have funded hereunder to its designating Lender without the consent of the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent and without regard to the limitations set forth in Subsection 11.6(b). Each Borrower, each Lender and the Administrative Agent hereby confirms that it will not institute against a Conduit Lender or join any other Person in instituting against a Conduit Lender any domestic or foreign bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding under any state, federal or provincial bankruptcy or similar law, for one year and one day after the payment in full of the latest maturing commercial paper note issued by such Conduit Lender; provided, however, that each Lender designating any Conduit Lender hereby agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless each other party hereto for any loss, cost, damage or expense arising out of its inability to institute such a proceeding against such Conduit Lender during such period of forbearance. Each such indemnifying Lender shall pay in full any claim received from each such Borrower pursuant to this Subsection 11.6(f) within 30 Business Days of receipt of a certificate from a Responsible Officer of the Borrower Representative specifying in reasonable detail the cause and amount of the loss, cost, damage or expense in respect of which the claim is being asserted, which certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Without limiting the indemnification obligations of any indemnifying Lender pursuant to this Subsection 11.6(f), in the event that the indemnifying Lender fails timely to compensate each such Borrower for such claim, any Loans held by the relevant Conduit Lender shall, if requested by the Borrower Representative, be assigned promptly to the Lender that administers the Conduit Lender and the designation of such Conduit Lender shall be void. (m) If the Borrower Representative wishes to replace the Loans or Commitments under the Facility with ones having different terms, it shall have the option, with the consent of the Administrative Agent and subject to at least three Business Days’ (or such shorter period as agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion) advance notice to the Lenders under such Facility, instead of prepaying the Loans or reducing or terminating the Commitments to be replaced, to (i) require the Lenders under such Facility to assign such Loans or Commitments to the Administrative Agent or its designees and (ii) amend the terms thereof in accordance with Subsection 11.1. Pursuant to any such assignment, (x) all Loans to be replaced shall be purchased at par (allocated among the Lenders under such Facility in the same manner as

225 would be required if such Loans were being optionally prepaid), accompanied by payment of any accrued interest and fees thereon and any amounts owing pursuant to Subsection 4.12 and (y) all Commitments to be replaced shall be allocated among the Lenders under such Facility in the same manner as would be required if such Commitments were being optionally reduced or terminated by the Borrowers, accompanied by payment of any accrued fees thereon and any amounts owing pursuant to Subsection 4.12. By receiving such purchase price (including accrued interest, fees and indemnity payments), the Lenders under such Facility shall automatically be deemed to have assigned the Loans or Commitments under such Facility pursuant to the terms of the form of the Assignment and Acceptance, the Administrative Agent shall record such assignment in the Register and accordingly no other action by such Lenders shall be required in connection therewith. The provisions of this clause (g) are intended to facilitate the maintenance of the perfection and priority of existing security interests in the Collateral during any such replacement. 11.7. Adjustments; Set-off; Calculations; Computations. (a) If any Lender (a “Benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of its Revolving Credit Loans or the Reimbursement Obligations owing to it, or interest thereon, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Subsection 9.1(f), or otherwise (except pursuant to Subsection 2.6, 4.4, 4.5(b), 4.9, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13(d), 11.1(g) or 11.6)), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other Lender’s Revolving Credit Loans or the Reimbursement Obligations, as the case may be, owing to it, or interest thereon, such Benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders an interest (by participation, assignment or otherwise) in such portion of each such other Lender’s Revolving Credit Loans or the Reimbursement Obligations, as the case may be, owing to it, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. (b) In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to the Borrower Representative, any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower Representative to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under Subsection 9.1(a) to set-off and appropriate and apply against any amount then due and payable under Subsection 9.1(a) by such Borrower any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of such Borrower. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent after any such set- off and application made by such Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. For purposes of this Subsection 11.7(b), the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Lender. 11.8. Judgment.

226 (a) If, for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against any Loan Party in any court in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into any other currency (such other currency being hereinafter in this Subsection 11.8 referred to as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due under any Loan Document in any currency (the “Obligation Currency”) other than the Judgment Currency, the conversion shall be made at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Business Day immediately preceding the date of actual payment of the amount due, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of any other jurisdiction that will give effect to such conversion being made on such date, or the date on which the judgment is given, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of any other jurisdiction (the applicable date as of which such conversion is made pursuant to this Subsection 11.8 being hereinafter in this Subsection 11.8 referred to as the “Judgment Conversion Date”). (b) If, in the case of any proceeding in the court of any jurisdiction referred to in Subsection 11.8(a), there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Conversion Date and the date of actual receipt for value of the amount due, the applicable Loan Party shall pay such additional amount (if any, but in any event not a lesser amount) as may be necessary to ensure that the amount actually received in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of the Obligation Currency which could have been purchased with the amount of the Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial order at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Judgment Conversion Date. Any amount due from any Loan Party under this Subsection 11.8(b) shall be due as a separate debt and shall not be affected by judgment being obtained for any other amounts due under or in respect of any of the Loan Documents. (c) The term “rate of exchange” in this Subsection 11.8 means the rate of exchange at which the Administrative Agent, on the relevant date at or about 12:00 noon (New York City time), would be prepared to sell, in accordance with its normal course foreign currency exchange practices, the Obligation Currency against the Judgment Currency. 11.9. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement in any number of separate counterparts (including by facsimile and other electronic transmission), and all of such counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be delivered to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent. 11.10. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 11.11. Integration. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the entire agreement of each of the Loan Parties party hereto and thereto, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by any of the Loan Parties party hereto, the Administrative Agent or any Lender relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents, as applicable.

227 11.12. Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY NOTES AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY NOTES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ITS PRINCIPLES OR RULES OF CONFLICT OF LAWS TO THE EXTENT SUCH PRINCIPLES OR RULES ARE NOT MANDATORILY APPLICABLE BY STATUTE AND WOULD REQUIRE OR PERMIT THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION. 11.13. Submission to Jurisdiction; Waivers. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally: (a) submits for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party to the exclusive general jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York for the County of New York (the “New York Supreme Court”), and the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Federal District Court,” and together with the New York Supreme Court, the “New York Courts”) and appellate courts from either of them; provided that nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed or operate to preclude (i) any Agent from bringing suit or taking other legal action in any other jurisdiction to realize on the Collateral or any other security for the Obligations (in which case any party shall be entitled to assert any claim or defense, including any claim or defense that this Subsection 11.13 would otherwise require to be asserted in a legal action or proceeding in a New York Court), or to enforce a judgment or other court order in favor of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, (ii) any party from bringing any legal action or proceeding in any jurisdiction for the recognition and enforcement of any judgment, (iii) if all such New York Courts decline jurisdiction over any Person, or decline (or in the case of the Federal District Court, lack) jurisdiction over any subject matter of such action or proceeding, a legal action or proceeding may be brought with respect thereto in another court having jurisdiction and (iv) in the event a legal action or proceeding is brought against any party hereto or involving any of its assets or property in another court (without any collusive assistance by such party or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates), such party from asserting a claim or defense (including any claim or defense that this Subsection 11.13(a) would otherwise require to be asserted in a legal proceeding in a New York Court) in any such action or proceeding; (b) consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient forum and agrees not to plead or claim the same; (c) agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to the Borrower Representative, the applicable Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, at the address specified in Subsection 11.2 or at such other address of which the Administrative Agent, any such Lender and the Borrower Representative shall have been notified pursuant thereto;

228 (d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or (subject to clause (a) above) shall limit the right to sue in any other jurisdiction; and (e) waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding referred to in this Subsection 11.13 any consequential or punitive damages. 11.14. Acknowledgements. Each Borrower hereby acknowledges that: (a) it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (b) neither any Agent nor any Other Representative or Lender has any fiduciary relationship with or duty to any Borrower arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and the relationship between the Administrative Agent and Lenders, on the one hand, and the Borrowers, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of creditor and debtor; and (c) no joint venture is created hereby or by the other Loan Documents or otherwise exists by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby among the Lenders or among any of the Borrowers and the Lenders. 11.15. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE BORROWERS, THE AGENTS AND THE LENDERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY NOTES OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN. 11.16. Confidentiality. (a) Each Agent, each Other Representative and each Lender agrees to keep confidential any information (a) provided to it by or on behalf of Holdings or any of the Borrowers or any of their respective Subsidiaries pursuant to or in connection with the Loan Documents or (b) obtained by such Lender based on a review of the books and records of Holdings or any of the Borrowers or any of their respective Subsidiaries; provided that nothing herein shall prevent any Lender from disclosing any such information (including, for the avoidance of doubt, a list of Disqualified Lenders) (i) to any Agent, any Other Representative or any other Lender, (ii) to any Transferee, or prospective Transferee or any creditor or any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to any Borrower and its obligations which agrees to comply with the provisions of this Subsection 11.16 pursuant to a written instrument (or electronically recorded agreement from any Person listed above in this clause (ii), in respect to any electronic information (whether posted or otherwise distributed on any Platform)) for the benefit of the Borrowers (it being understood that each relevant Lender shall be solely responsible for obtaining such instrument (or such electronically recorded agreement)), (iii) to its Affiliates and the employees, officers, partners, directors, agents, attorneys, accountants and other professional advisors of it and its Affiliates; provided that such Lender shall inform each such Person of the agreement under this Subsection 11.16 and take reasonable actions to cause

229 compliance by any such Person referred to in this clause (iii) with this agreement (including, where appropriate, to cause any such Person to acknowledge its agreement to be bound by the agreement under this Subsection 11.16), (iv) upon the request or demand of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over such Lender or its affiliates or to the extent required in response to any order of any court or other Governmental Authority or as shall otherwise be required pursuant to any Requirement of Law; provided that, other than with respect to any disclosure to any bank regulatory authority, such Lender shall, unless prohibited by any Requirement of Law, notify the Borrower Representative of any disclosure pursuant to this clause (iv) as far in advance as is reasonably practicable under such circumstances, (v) which has been publicly disclosed other than in breach of this Agreement, (vi) in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder, under any Loan Document or under any Interest Rate Agreement, (vii) in connection with periodic regulatory examinations and reviews conducted by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over such Lender or its affiliates (to the extent applicable), (viii) in connection with any litigation to which such Lender (or, with respect to any Interest Rate Agreement, any Affiliate of any Lender party thereto) may be a party subject to the proviso in clause (iv) above, (ix) to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry and service providers to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, subject, in each case, to customary confidentiality arrangements for service providers and limited to the existence of the Agreement and publicly available information for market data collectors, (x) in connection with customary advertisements in financial and other newspapers and periodicals or on a home page or similar place for dissemination of customary information on the worldwide web and similar promotional materials, in the form of a “tombstone” or otherwise describing the names of the Borrowers, and the type, size and Closing Date of the credit facilities; provided that, without the prior written consent of the U.S. Borrower, such advertisements may not disclose any information other than the existence of this Agreement, the size and type of the credit facilities, the parties to the Loan Documents and the Closing Date, (xi) to any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction and to credit insurance (or reinsurance) providers and brokers, in each case, relating to any of the Loan Party’s and its obligations and (xii) if, prior to such information having been so provided or obtained, such information was already in an Agent’s or a Lender’s possession on a non-confidential basis without a duty of confidentiality to any Borrower being violated. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any Assignment and Acceptance, the provisions of this Subsection 11.16 shall survive with respect to each Agent and Lender until the second anniversary of such Agent or Lender ceasing to be an Agent or a Lender, respectively; provided that in no case shall any Agent or Lender cease to be obligated pursuant to this Subsection 11.16 prior to the third anniversary of the Closing Date. (b) Each Lender acknowledges that any such information referred to in Subsection 11.16(a), and any information (including requests for waivers and amendments) furnished by the U.S. Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or the Administrative Agent pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, may include material non- public information concerning the U.S. Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, the other Loan Parties and their respective Affiliates or their respective securities. Each Lender represents and confirms that such Lender has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information; that such Lender will handle such material non-public information in accordance with those procedures and applicable law, including United States federal and state securities laws; and

230 that such Lender has identified to the Administrative Agent a credit contact who may receive information that may contain material non-public information in accordance with its compliance procedures and applicable law. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Subsection 11.16 shall prohibit any Person from voluntarily disclosing or providing any information within the scope of this confidentiality provision to any governmental, regulatory or self-regulatory organization (any such entity, a “Regulatory Authority”) to the extent that any such prohibition on disclosure set forth in this Subsection 11.16 shall be prohibited by the laws or regulations applicable to such Regulatory Authority. 11.17. Incremental Indebtedness; Additional Indebtedness.

USA PATRIOT Act Notice. (a) Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “PATRIOT Act”), it is required to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name of each Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender to identify each Loan Party in accordance with the PATRIOT Act, and each Loan Party agrees to provide such information from time to time to any Lender. (b) Each Loan Party acknowledges that, pursuant to the Canadian AML Legislation, the Lender may be required to obtain, verify and record information regarding each Loan Party, its directors, authorized signing officers, direct or indirect shareholders or other Persons in control of each Loan Party, and the transactions contemplated hereby. Each Loan Party shall promptly provide all such information, including supporting documentation and other evidence, as may be reasonably requested by the Lender, or any prospective assign or participant of the Lender, in order to comply with any applicable Canadian AML Legislation, whether now or hereafter in existence 11.19. Electronic Execution of Documents. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of (x) this Agreement, (y) any other Loan Document and/or (z) any document, amendment, approval, consent, information, notice (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any notice delivered pursuant to Subsection 7.7), certificate, request, statement, disclosure or

231 authorization related to this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or the transactions contemplated hereby and/or thereby (each an “Ancillary Document”) that is an Electronic Signature transmitted by telecopy, 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 and/or any Ancillary Document shall be deemed to include Electronic Signatures, deliveries or the keeping of records in any electronic form (including deliveries by telecopy, 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 has agreed to accept any Electronic Signature, the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders shall be entitled to rely on such Electronic Signature purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrowers 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 the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by a manually executed counterpart. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Borrower and each Loan Party hereby (i) 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 Borrowers and the Loan Parties, Electronic Signatures transmitted by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page and/or any electronic images of this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as any paper original, (ii) the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders may, at its option, create one or more copies of this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or 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), (iii) waives any argument, defense or right to contest the legal effect, validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document based solely on the lack of paper original copies of this Agreement, such other Loan Document and/or such Ancillary Document, respectively, including with respect to any signature pages thereto and (iv) waives any claim against any Lender and its Related Parties for any liabilities arising solely from the Administrative Agent’s and/or any Lender’s reliance on or use of Electronic Signatures and/or transmissions by telecopy, 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 any Borrower and/or any Loan Party to use any available security measures in connection with the execution, delivery or transmission of any Electronic Signature. 11.20. Reinstatement. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition or other proceeding be filed by or against any Loan Party for liquidation or reorganization, should any Loan Party become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of any creditor or creditors or should an interim receiver, receiver,

232 receiver and manager or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of any Loan Party’s assets, and shall continue to be effective or to be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrowers under the Loan Documents, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee of the obligations, whether as a fraudulent preference, reviewable transaction or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the obligations of the Borrowers hereunder shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned. 11.21. Joint and Several Liability; Postponement of Subrogation. (a) The obligations of the Borrowers hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to which each Borrower is a party shall be joint and several and, as such, each Borrower shall be liable for all of such obligations of the other Borrowers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which each Borrower is a party. To the fullest extent permitted by law the liability of each Borrower for the obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents of the other applicable Borrowers with whom it has joint and several liability shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, without regard to (i) the validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any of the obligations hereunder or thereunder or any other collateral security therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by any applicable Secured Party, (ii) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance hereunder; provided that no Borrower hereby waives any suit for breach of a contractual provision of any of the Loan Documents) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by such other applicable Borrower or any other Person against any Secured Party or (iii) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of such other applicable Borrower or such Borrower) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of such other applicable Borrower for the obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or of such Borrower under this Subsection 11.21, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. (b) Each Borrower agrees that it will not exercise any rights which it may acquire by way of rights of subrogation under this Agreement, by any payments made hereunder or otherwise, until the prior payment in full in cash of all of the obligations hereunder and under any other Loan Document, the termination or expiration of all Letters of Credit and the permanent termination of all Commitments. Any amount paid to any Borrower on account of any such subrogation rights prior to the payment in full in cash of all of the obligations hereunder and under any other Loan Document, the termination or expiration of all Letters of Credit and the permanent termination of all Commitments shall be held in trust for the benefit of the applicable Secured Parties and shall immediately be paid to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the applicable Secured Parties and credited and applied against the obligations of the applicable Borrowers, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the Administrative Agent shall elect. In furtherance of the foregoing, for so long as any obligations of the Borrowers hereunder, any Letters of Credit or any Commitments remain outstanding, each Borrower shall refrain from taking any action or commencing any proceeding against any other Borrower (or any of its successors or assigns, whether in connection with a bankruptcy proceeding or otherwise) to recover any amounts

233 in respect of payments made in respect of the obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document of such other Borrower to any Secured Party. 11.22. Designated Cash Management Agreements and Designated Hedging Agreements. Each Lender may from time to time elect by notice in writing to the Administrative Agent (with a copy to the Borrower Representative) that (x)(i) a Cash Management Arrangement with any Cash Management Party is to be a “Designated Cash Management Agreement” having monetary obligations that are subject to the waterfall provisions set forth in Subsection 10.15; provided that with respect to any Bank Products Agreement with the Designated Bank Product Affiliate, the Borrower Representative shall provide such notice on or before the Closing Date and (ii) the Administrative Agent shall establish a Designated Cash Management Reserve with respect to any such Designated Cash Management Agreement in an amount (which amount shall be specified in such notice) equal to the anticipated monetary obligations of the U.S. Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary under such Designated Cash Management Agreement owing to any Cash Management Party, so long as, immediately after giving effect thereto, Excess Availability would be not less than zero, or (y)(i) a Hedging Agreement or other Permitted Hedging Arrangement with any Hedging Party is to be a “Designated Hedging Agreement” having monetary obligations that are subject to the waterfall provisions set forth in Subsection 10.15 and (ii) the Administrative Agent shall establish a Designated Hedging Reserve with respect to any such Designated Hedging Agreement in an amount (which amount shall be specified in such notice) equal to the anticipated monetary obligations of the U.S. Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary under such Designated Hedging Agreement owing to any Hedging Party, so long as, immediately after giving effect thereto, Excess Availability would be not less than zero, provided that no monetary obligations under any Designated Cash Management Agreement or Designated Hedging Agreement shall receive any benefit of the designation under this Subsection 11.22 after the Termination Date, provided, further, that no Cash Management Arrangement shall be designated as a “Designated Cash Management Agreement” and no Hedging Agreement or other Permitted Hedging Arrangement shall be designated as a “Designated Hedging Agreement” if, at the time of such designation, the establishment of a Designated Cash Management Reserve or Designated Hedging Reserve in connection with such Designated Cash Management Agreement or Designated Hedging Agreement, as applicable, would result in Excess Availability being less than zero. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any Bank Products Agreement with the Administrative Agent (or an Affiliate thereof) and any Hedging Agreement or other Permitted Hedging Arrangement, in each case, with the Administrative Agent (or an Affiliate thereof) shall receive the benefit of the applicable designation under this Subsection 11.22 regardless of whether any notice contemplated under this Subsection 11.22 is actually delivered or any election is actually made. 11.23. 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 such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

234 (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: (c) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability; (d) 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 (e) 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. 11.24. Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States): In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

235 11.25. Erroneous Payments by Agent to Lenders. (a) Each Lender hereby agrees that (i) if the Administrative Agent notifies such Lender that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds received by such Lender from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Lender (whether or not known to such Lender) (whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees or otherwise; individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”) and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Lender shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect and (ii) to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender shall not assert any right or claim to the Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payments received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. (b) Without limiting immediately preceding clause (a), each Lender hereby further agrees that if it receives an Erroneous 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 Erroneous Payment (an “Erroneous Payment Notice”), (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by an Erroneous Payment Notice, or (z) that such Lender otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part), in each case, an error has been made (and that it is deemed to have knowledge of such error at the time of receipt of such Erroneous Payment) with respect to such Erroneous Payment, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender shall not assert any right or claim to the Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payments received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine. Each Lender agrees that, in each such case, it shall promptly (and, in all events, within one Business Day of its knowledge (or deemed knowledge) of such error) notify the Administrative Agent of such occurrence and, upon demand from the Administrative Agent, it shall promptly, but in all events no later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect.

236 (c) Each 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 that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights of such Lender with respect to such amount and (y) an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by any 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 of the Borrower or any other Loan Party. (d) Each party’s obligations under this Subsection 11.25 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document. 11.26. Subsidiary Borrowers. The U.S. Borrower may cause any Domestic Subsidiary that is a Wholly Owned Subsidiary to become a Subsidiary Borrower after five Business Days’ written notice to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter period as may be agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion) pursuant to a Borrower Joinder (which Borrower Joinder shall be accompanied by all documentation and other information about such Subsidiary Borrower as shall be required by applicable regulatory authorities under applicable “know your customer” provisions and similar provisions of anti-money laundering rules and regulations. Upon receipt thereof the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit each such notice to each of the Lenders; provided that any failure to do so by the Administrative Agent shall not in any way affect the status of any such Subsidiary as a Subsidiary Borrower hereunder.
