Notwithstanding the foregoing, for the avoidance of doubt any lease that is treated as an operating lease for purposes of GAAP as of December 14, 2018 shall not be treated as Indebtedness or as a capital lease and shall continue to be treated as an operating lease (and any future lease, if it were in effect on the date hereof, that would be treated as an operating lease for purposes of GAAP as of the date hereof shall be treated as an operating lease), in each case for purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding any actual or proposed change in GAAP after the date hereof. 1.2.

If the Benchmark Replacement as determined pursuant to clause (a) or (b) above would be less than the Floor, the Benchmark Replacement will be deemed to be the Floor for the purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents “Benchmark Replacement Adjustment” means, with respect to any replacement of the then-current Benchmark with an Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement, the spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) that has been selected by Agent and the Borrower giving due consideration to (a) any selection or recommendation of a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement by the Relevant Governmental Body or (b) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for Dollar-denominated syndicated credit facilities. 5

For the avoidance of doubt, the “Benchmark Replacement Date” will be deemed to have occurred in the case of clause (a) or (b) with respect to any Benchmark upon the occurrence of the applicable event or events set forth therein with respect to all then-current Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof). “Benchmark Transition Event” means the occurrence of one or more of the following events with respect to the then-current Benchmark: (a) a public statement or publication of information by or on behalf of the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) announcing that such administrator has ceased or will cease to provide all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof), permanently or indefinitely; provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide any Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or such component thereof); (b) a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof), the Federal Reserve Board, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, an insolvency official with jurisdiction over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component), a resolution authority with jurisdiction over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component) or a court or an entity with similar insolvency or resolution authority over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component), which states that the administrator of such Benchmark (or such component) has ceased or will cease to provide all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) permanently or indefinitely; provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide any Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or such component thereof); or (c) a public statement or publication of information by or on behalf of the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) or the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) announcing that all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) are not, or as of a specified future date 6

(ii) Each of the Lenders hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees to fund to Agent for the benefit of Swingline Lender, in lawful money of the United States and in same day funds, not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on the Settlement Date, such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of a Revolving Advance (which Revolving Advance shall be a Domestic Rate Loan and shall be deemed to be requested by Borrower) in the principal amount of such portion of the Swingline Loans which is required to be paid to Swingline Lender under this Section 2.1(c) (regardless of whether the conditions precedent thereto set forth in Article VIII are then satisfied and whether or not Borrower has provided a Notice of Borrowing under Section 2.2 and whether or not any Default or Event of Default exists or all or any of the Advances have been accelerated, but subject to the other provisions of this 45

Section 2.1(c)). The proceeds of any such Revolving Advance shall be immediately paid over to Agent for the benefit of Swingline Lender for application to the Swingline Loan. (iii) In the event that an Event of Default shall occur and either (i) such Event of Default is of the type described in Section 10.7 or 10.8 or (ii) no further Revolving Advances are being made under this Agreement, so long as any such Event of Default is continuing, then, each of the Lenders (other than Swingline Lender) shall be deemed to have irrevocably, unconditionally and immediately purchased a participation from Swingline Lender of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Swingline Loan outstanding as of the date of the occurrence of such Event of Default. Each Lender shall effect such purchase by making available an amount equal to its Commitment Percentage of the outstanding Swingline Loan on the date of such purchase in Dollars in immediately available funds to Agent for the benefit of Swingline Lender. In the event any Lender fails to make available to Swingline Lender when due the amount of such Lender’s participation in the Swingline Loan (as calculated above), Swingline Lender shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest at the Federal Funds Rate. Each such purchase by a Lender shall be made without recourse to Swingline Lender, without representation or warranty of any kind, and shall be effected and evidenced pursuant to documents reasonably acceptable to Swingline Lender. The Swingline Loans shall be evidenced by one or more promissory notes substantially in the form of Exhibit D. The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 2.1(c) shall be absolute, irrevocable and unconditional, shall be made under all circumstances and shall not be affected, reduced or impaired for any reason whatsoever. 2.2. Procedure for Borrowing. (a) Borrower may notify by delivery of a Notice of Borrowing to Agent prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on a Business Day of Borrower’s request to incur, on that day, or in the alternative, on the immediately succeeding Business Day thereafter (as specified in the Notice of Borrowing), a Revolving Advance hereunder. Any amount required to be paid as interest hereunder, or as fees or other charges under this Agreement or any other agreement with Agent, any Lender and/or the Issuer, or with respect to any other Obligation, which shall become due, if not otherwise paid when due, shall be deemed a request for a Revolving Advance to be maintained as a Domestic Rate Loan as of the date such payment is due, in the amount required to pay in full such interest, fee, charge or Obligation under this Agreement, or any other agreement with Agent, any Lender and/or the Issuer and such request shall be irrevocable. (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (a) above, in the event Borrower desires to obtain a SOFR Loan, Borrower shall deliver a Notice of Borrowing to Agent by no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the day which is three (3) U.S. Government Securities Business Days prior to the date such SOFR Loan is to be borrowed, specifying (i) the date of the proposed borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) the type of borrowing and the amount on the date of such Revolving Advance to be borrowed, which amount shall be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 and in integral multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof, and (iii) the duration of the first Interest Period therefor. Interest Periods for SOFR Loans consisting of Revolving Advances shall be for one, three or six months. No SOFR Loan shall be made available to Borrower during the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default. After giving effect to each such borrowing, there shall not be outstanding more than six (6) SOFR Loans consisting of Revolving Advances, in the aggregate at any time. Agent shall provide Borrower with a quote of the actual interest rate available for the SOFR Loan requested by Borrower, which quote shall be given on the day after such SOFR Loan is requested and such quote shall be effective from the day provided by Agent until two (2) Business Days thereafter. 46

(c) Subject to the definition of “Interest Period”, each Interest Period of a SOFR Loan shall commence on the date such SOFR Loan is made and shall end on such date as Borrower may elect as set forth in subsection (b)(iii) above. (d) Borrower shall elect the initial Interest Period applicable to a SOFR Loan by its Notice of Borrowing given to Agent pursuant to Section 2.2(b) or by its Notice of Conversion given to Agent pursuant to Section 2.2(e) as the case may be. Borrower shall elect the duration of each succeeding Interest Period by giving irrevocable written notice to Agent of such duration not less than three (3) U.S. Government Securities Business Days prior to the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such SOFR Loan. If Agent does not receive timely notice of the Interest Period elected by Borrower, Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to convert to a Domestic Rate Loan subject to Section 2.2(e). (e) Provided that no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Borrower may, on the last Business Day of the then current Interest Period applicable to any outstanding SOFR Loan, or on any Business Day with respect to Domestic Rate Loans, convert any such loan into a loan of another type in the same aggregate principal amount; provided that any conversion of a SOFR Loan shall be made only on the last Business Day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such SOFR Loan. If Borrower desires to convert a loan, Borrower shall give Agent a Notice of Conversion by no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) (i) on the day which is three (3) U.S. Government Securities Business Days prior to the date on which such conversion is to occur with respect to a conversion from a Domestic Rate Loan to a SOFR Loan, or (ii) on the day which is one (1) U.S. Government Securities Business Day prior to the date on which such conversion is to occur with respect to a conversion from a SOFR Loan to a Domestic Rate Loan, specifying, in each case, the date of such conversion, the loans to be converted and if the conversion is from a Domestic Rate Loan to any other type of loan, the duration of the first Interest Period therefor. After giving effect to each request for a SOFR Loan, there shall not be outstanding more than six (6) SOFR Loans consisting of Revolving Advances, in the aggregate. (f) At its option and upon written notice given prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York time) three (3) U.S. Government Securities Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment, Borrower may prepay the SOFR Loans in whole at any time or in part from time to time, without premium or penalty (except amounts which may be owed pursuant to Section 15.5(b)), but with accrued interest on the principal being prepaid to the date of such repayment. Borrower shall specify the date of prepayment of Revolving Advances which are SOFR Loans and the amount of such prepayment. In the event that any prepayment of a SOFR Loan is required or permitted on a date other than the last Business Day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, Borrower shall pay any amounts which may be owed pursuant to Section 15.5(b). (g) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if any Applicable Law, treaty, regulation or directive, or any change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof, shall make it unlawful for any Lender (for purposes of this Section 2.2(g), the term “Lender” shall include any Lender and the office or branch where any Lender or any corporation or bank controlling such Lender makes or maintains any SOFR Loans) to make or maintain its SOFR Loans, the obligation of Lenders to make SOFR Loans hereunder shall forthwith be cancelled and Borrower shall, if any affected SOFR Loans are then outstanding, promptly upon request from Agent, either pay all such affected SOFR Loans or convert such affected SOFR Loans into Domestic Rate Loans. In the event that (i) any payment of a SOFR Loan is required, made or permitted on a date other than the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto (including upon demand by Agent or Lenders ), (ii) the conversion of any SOFR Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, or (iii) the failure to convert, continue, borrow or prepay any SOFR Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto, then, in any such event, Borrower shall compensate the Lenders for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such 47

event, including any loss, cost or expense arising from the liquidation or redeployment of funds. A certificate of the Lenders delivered to Borrower and setting forth any amount or amounts that the Lenders are entitled to receive pursuant to this paragraph shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Borrower shall pay the Lenders the amount shown as due on any such certificate upon demand. 2.3. Disbursement of Advance Proceeds. All Advances shall be disbursed from whichever office or other place Agent may designate from time to time and, together with any and all other Obligations of Borrower to Agent or Lenders, shall be charged to Borrower’s Account on Agent’s books. During the Term, Borrower may use the Revolving Advances by borrowing, prepaying and reborrowing, all in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. The proceeds of each Revolving Advance requested by Borrower or deemed to have been requested by Borrower under Section 2.2(a) shall, with respect to requested Revolving Advances to the extent Lenders make such Revolving Advances, be made available to Borrower by the close of business on the day so requested by Borrower by way of credit to Borrower’s operating account maintained with Agent or such other bank as Borrower may designate following notification to Agent, in immediately available federal funds or other immediately available funds or, with respect to Revolving Advances deemed to have been requested by Borrower, be disbursed to Agent to be applied to the outstanding Obligations giving rise to such deemed request. 2.4. Incremental Loans. (a) Revolving Loans. At any time during the Term, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would exist therefrom, and subject to the conditions set forth in clause (d) below, upon notice to the Agent, Borrower may, from time to time, request one or more increases (but not more than five (5) increases in the aggregate) to the Commitments (the “Incremental Revolving Commitment”); provided that, in no event shall the aggregate amount of Incremental Revolving Commitment exceed $75,000,000. Any Incremental Revolving Commitment shall be in the amount of at least $5,000,000 (or such lower amount that represents all remaining availability pursuant to this Section 2.4(a)) and integral multiples of $5,000,000 in excess thereof (or such lower amount that represents all remaining availability pursuant to this Section 2.4(a)). (b) Lender Election to Increase; Prospective Lenders. At the time of sending such request, Borrower (in consultation with the Agent) shall specify the time period (such period, the “Election Period”) within which each Lender is requested to respond (which Election Period shall in no event be less than ten (10) days from the date of delivery of such request to the Lenders), and the Agent shall promptly thereafter notify each Lender of Borrower’s request for such Incremental Revolving Commitment and the Election Period during which each Lender is requested to respond to such Borrower request; provided that, if such notice indicates that it is conditioned upon the occurrence of a specified event, such request may be revoked if such event does not occur prior to the requested funding date. No Lender shall be obligated to participate in any Incremental Revolving Commitment, and each such Lender’s determination to participate shall be in such Lender’s sole and absolute discretion. Any Lender not responding by the end of such Election Period shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Commitment. To the extent Lenders (or their Affiliates) do not agree to provide an Incremental Revolving Commitment, as applicable, on terms acceptable to Borrower, Borrower may invite any prospective lender that satisfies the criteria of being an “Eligible Assignee” and is reasonably satisfactory to the Agent to become a Lender pursuant to a joinder agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent in connection with the proposed Incremental Revolving Commitment, as applicable (provided that the joinder of any such “Lender” for the purpose of providing all or any portion of any such Incremental Revolving Commitment, as applicable, shall not require the consent of any other Lender 48

(including any other “Lender” that is joining this Agreement to provide all or part of such Incremental Revolving Commitment)). (c) Effective Date and Allocations. If the Commitments are increased in accordance with this Section 2.4, the Agent and Borrower shall determine the effective date (the “Increase Effective Date”) and the final allocation of such Incremental Revolving Commitment. The Agent shall promptly notify Borrower and the Lenders of the final allocation of such Incremental Revolving Commitment and the Increase Effective Date. (d) Each of the following shall be the only conditions precedent to the making of an Incremental Revolving Commitment: (i) Borrower shall deliver to the Agent a certificate of each Loan Party dated as of the Increase Effective Date (in sufficient copies for each Lender) signed by an Authorized Officer of each such Loan Party certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Loan Party approving or consenting to such Incremental Revolving Commitment; (ii) Each of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 8.2 shall be satisfied; (iii) The then applicable financial covenants set forth in Section 6.8 hereof shall have been met, immediately after giving effect to the making of the Incremental Revolving Commitment on a pro forma basis (treating any Incremental Revolving Commitment as fully funded); (iv) Borrower shall have delivered to the Agent a certificate certifying as to compliance with the requirements of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, together with all reasonably detailed calculations evidencing compliance with clause (iii) above; (v) Borrower shall (x) deliver to any Lender providing an increase in the Commitments hereunder (or any new Lender providing such Commitment) any Notes requested by such Lender in connection with the making of such increased or new Commitment, and (y) have executed any amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be required by the Agent to effectuate the provisions of this Section 2.4, including, if applicable, any amendment that may be necessary to ensure and demonstrate that the Liens and security interests granted by the Loan Documents are perfected under the UCC or other applicable law to secure the Obligations in respect of the Incremental Revolving Commitment; (vi) Borrower shall prepay any Revolving Advances outstanding on the Increase Effective Date (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 2.2(f)) to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Revolving Advances ratable with any revised Commitment Percentages resulting from any non-ratable increase in the Commitments undertaken pursuant to this Section 2.4. (e) Distribution of Revised Commitments Schedule. The Agent shall promptly distribute to the parties an amended Schedule 1.1 (which shall be deemed incorporated into this Agreement), to reflect any such changes in the Commitments of the existing Lenders, or the addition of any new Lenders and their Commitment amounts, and the respective Commitment Percentages resulting therefrom. 49

(f) Conflicting Provisions. This Section shall supersede any provisions in Sections 2.13 or 15.2 to the contrary. (g) Treatment. The Incremental Revolving Commitments and any additional Revolving Advances made available pursuant to any such Incremental Revolving Commitment shall be treated on the same terms (including with respect to pricing and maturity date, but excluding any commitment, arrangement, upfront or similar fees, which shall be determined by Borrower and the Lenders providing such Incremental Revolving Commitments) as, and made pursuant to the same documentation as is applicable to, the original Revolving Commitment and the original revolving facility, and shall be entitled to all the benefits afforded by, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and shall, without limiting the foregoing, benefit equally and ratably from any guarantees and the security interests created by the Loan Documents and will be secured on a pari passu basis by the same Collateral. Borrower and the other Loan Parties shall take any actions reasonably required by the Agent to ensure and demonstrate that the Liens and security interests granted by the Loan Documents continue to be perfected under the UCC or otherwise after giving effect to the establishment of any such new Incremental Revolving Commitment and additional Revolving Advances. (h) Effect of Increase. Upon the increase in the Maximum Revolving Advance Amount under this Section 2.4, all references in this Agreement and in any other Loan Document (i) to the Maximum Revolving Advance Amount of any Lender shall be deemed to include any increase in such Lender’s Revolving Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.4, and (ii) to the Maximum Revolving Advance Amount shall be deemed to include the increase in the Maximum Revolving Advance Amount made pursuant to this Section 2.4. 2.5. Maximum Advances and Letters of Credit. The aggregate balance of Revolving Advances outstanding plus the Letter of Credit Reserve plus the aggregate principal amount of Swingline Loans outstanding at any time shall not exceed the Maximum Revolving Advance Amount. 2.6. Repayment of Advances. (a) The Revolving Advances shall be due and payable in full in cash on the Termination Date subject to earlier prepayment as herein provided. The Swingline Loans shall be due and payable in accordance with Section 2.1(c), subject to earlier prepayment as herein provided. (b) [Reserved]. (c) Borrower recognizes that the amounts evidenced by checks, notes, drafts or any other items of payment relating to and/or proceeds of Collateral may not be collectible by Agent on the date received. In consideration of Agent’s agreement to conditionally credit Borrower’s Account as of the Business Day on which Agent receives those items of payment in immediately available funds, Agent agrees that, in computing the charges under this Agreement, all items of payment shall be deemed applied by Agent on account of the Obligations on the Business Day (i) Agent receives such payments via wire transfer or electronic depository check or (ii) in the case of payments received by Agent in any other form, such payment constitutes good funds in Agent’s account. Agent is not, however, required to credit Borrower’s Account for the amount of any item of payment which is unsatisfactory to Agent and Agent may charge Borrower’s Account for the amount of any item of payment which is returned to Lender unpaid. All repayments of Revolving Advances shall be applied first, to any outstanding Swingline 50

Loans, second, to any Revolving Advances maintained as Domestic Rate Loans, and third, to any SOFR Loans (subject to Section 2.2(f) hereof). (d) All payments of principal, interest and other amounts payable hereunder, or under any of the Loan Documents shall be made to Agent at the Payment Office not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on the due date therefor in lawful money of the United States of America in federal funds or other funds immediately available to Agent. Agent shall have the right to effectuate payment on any and all Obligations due and owing hereunder by charging Borrower’s Account or by making Revolving Advances maintained as a Domestic Rate Loan as provided in Section 2.2 in the amount of all such Obligations due and owing. In the event Agent charges Borrower’s Account or makes any such Revolving Advances, the statement of account required to be delivered to Borrower under Section 2.8 shall reflect all such charges or Revolving Advances which occurred in the prior month. (e) Borrower shall pay principal, interest, and all other amounts payable hereunder, or under any related agreement, without any deduction whatsoever, including, but not limited to, any deduction for any setoff or counterclaim. 2.7. Repayment of Excess Revolving Advances. The aggregate balance of Revolving Advances outstanding at any time in excess of the maximum amount of Revolving Advances permitted hereunder shall be immediately due and payable without the necessity of any demand, at the Payment Office, whether or not a Default or Event of Default has occurred, together with any amounts which may be due under Section 15.5(b) if a SOFR Loan is required to be prepaid as a consequence of this section. 2.8. Statement of Account. Agent shall maintain, in accordance with its customary procedures, a loan account (the “Borrower’s Account”) in the name of Borrower in which shall be recorded the date and amount of each Advance made by Lenders and the date and amount of each payment in respect thereof; provided, however, the failure by Agent to record the date and amount of any Advance shall not adversely affect Agent or any Lender. Each month, Agent shall send to Borrower a statement showing the accounting for the Advances made, payments made or credited in respect thereof, and other transactions between Lenders and Borrower during such month. The monthly statements shall be deemed correct and binding upon Borrower in the absence of manifest error and shall constitute an account stated between Lenders and Borrower unless Agent receives a written statement of Borrower’s specific exceptions thereto within thirty (30) days after such statement is received by Borrower. The records of Agent with respect to Borrower’s Account shall be conclusive evidence absent manifest error of the amounts of Advances and other charges thereto and of payments applicable thereto. 2.9. Letters of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Agent shall issue or cause the issuance of Standby Letters of Credit (collectively, “Letters of Credit”) by Issuer on behalf of Borrower provided, however, that Agent will not be required to issue or cause to be issued any Letters of Credit to the extent that the Maximum Undrawn Amount of such Letters of Credit would then cause the sum of (i) the outstanding Revolving Advances and Swingline Loans plus (ii) the Letter of Credit Reserve (after giving effect to such issuance or creation) to exceed the Maximum Revolving Advance Amount; and provided further, that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Issuer shall have the right not to issue a Letter of Credit if the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of Issuer applicable to letters of credit generally. The Maximum Undrawn Amount of outstanding Letters of 51

Credit shall not exceed $15,000,000 in the aggregate at any time. All disbursements or payments related to Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be Domestic Rate Loans consisting of Revolving Advances and shall bear interest at the Revolving Interest Rate for Domestic Rate Loans; Letters of Credit that have not been drawn upon shall not bear interest. 2.10. Issuance of Letters of Credit. (a) Borrower may request Agent to issue or cause the issuance of a Letter of Credit by delivering to Agent at the Payment Office, Issuer’s standard form of letter of credit and security agreement and standard form of letter of credit application (collectively, the “Letter of Credit Application”) and any draft if applicable, completed to the satisfaction of Agent; and such other certificates, documents and other papers and information as Agent or Issuer may reasonably request. Agent shall use its best efforts to cause all Letters of Credit requested by Borrower and approved by Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement to be issued no later than three (3) Business Days after the day so requested by Borrower. (b) Each Letter of Credit shall, among other things, (i) provide for the payment of sight drafts or acceptances of issuance drafts when presented for honor thereunder in accordance with the terms thereof and when accompanied by the documents described therein and (ii) have an expiry date not later than twelve (12) months after such Letter of Credit’s date of issuance. With respect to clause (ii) above, in no event shall any Letters of Credit issued hereunder have an expiry date later than the Termination Date unless Borrower provides cash collateral equal to not less than one hundred five percent (105%) of the face amount thereof to be held by Agent pursuant to a cash collateral agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Agent. All Letters of Credit shall be subject to the laws or rules designated in such Letter of Credit, or if no laws or rules are designated, the International Standby Practices (ISP98 – International Chamber of Commerce Publication Number 590) (the “ISP98 Rules”) and, as to matters not governed by the ISP98 Rules, the laws of the State of New York and applicable United States Federal law. If, at Borrower’s request, the Letter of Credit expressly chooses a letter of credit governing rule that is not the ISP98 Rules or a state or country law other than New York state law and United States Federal law or is silent with respect to the choice of the ISP98 Rules or a governing law, neither Agent nor Issuer shall be liable for any payment, cost, expense or loss resulting from any action or inaction taken by Agent or Issuer if such action or inaction is or would be justified under the ISP98 Rules, New York law, applicable United States Federal law or the law governing the Letter of Credit. Borrower agrees that for matters not addressed by the ISP98 Rules, the Letter of Credit shall be subject to and governed by the laws of the State of New York and applicable United States Federal laws. If, at Borrower’s request, the Letter of Credit expressly chooses a state or country law other than New York state law and United States Federal law or is silent with respect to the choice of the ISP98 Rules or a governing law, Issuer shall not be liable for any payment, cost, expense or loss resulting from any action or inaction taken by Issuer if such action or inaction is or would be justified under the ISP98 Rules, New York law, applicable United States Federal law or the law governing the Letter of Credit. (c) Agent shall use its reasonable efforts to notify Lenders of the request by Borrower for a Letter of Credit hereunder. 2.11. Requirements for Issuance of Letters of Credit. (a) In connection with the issuance of any Letter of Credit, Borrower shall indemnify, save and hold Agent, each Lender and the Issuer harmless from any loss, cost, expense or liability, including, without limitation, payments made by Agent, any Lender or the Issuer and expenses and, subject to Section 15.5(c), reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by Agent, any Lender or the Issuer arising out of, or in connection with, any Letter of Credit to be issued or created for Borrower. Borrower 52

shall be bound by Agent’s or Issuer’s regulations and good faith interpretations of any Letter of Credit issued or created for Borrower’s Account, although this interpretation may be different from its own; and, neither Agent, nor any Lender, nor the Issuer nor any of their correspondents shall be liable for any error, negligence, or mistakes, whether of omission or commission, in following Borrower’s instructions or those contained in any Letter of Credit or of any modifications, amendments or supplements thereto or in issuing or paying any Letter of Credit except for Agent’s, any Lender’s, the Issuer’s or such correspondents’ willful misconduct or gross negligence (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment). (b) Borrower shall authorize and direct the Issuer of a Letter of Credit to deliver to Agent all related payment/acceptance advices, to deliver to Agent all instruments, documents, and other writings and property received by Issuer pursuant to the Letter of Credit and to accept and rely upon Agent’s instructions and agreements with respect to all matters arising in connection with the Letter of Credit or the application therefor. With respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, Issuer 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. (c) In connection with all Letters of Credit issued or caused to be issued by Agent under this Agreement, Borrower hereby appoints Agent, or its designee, as its attorney, with full power and authority: (i) to sign and/or endorse Borrower’s name upon any warehouse or other receipts, letter of credit applications and acceptances; (ii) to sign Borrower’s name on bills of lading; and (iii) to complete in Borrower’s name or Agent’s, or in the name of Agent’s designee, any order, sale or transaction, obtain the necessary documents in connection therewith, and collect the proceeds thereof. None of Agent, Issuer nor any of their respective attorneys will be liable for any acts or omissions nor for any error of judgment or mistakes of fact or law, except for Agent’s, Issuer’s or their respective attorney’s willful misconduct or gross negligence (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment). This power, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable as long as any Letters of Credit remain outstanding. (d) Each Lender shall to the extent of the amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage times the aggregate amount of all unreimbursed reimbursement obligations arising from disbursements made or obligations incurred with respect to the Letters of Credit be deemed to have irrevocably purchased an undivided participation in (i) each such unreimbursed reimbursement obligation, and (ii) each Revolving Advance made as a consequence of the issuance of a Letter of Credit and all disbursements thereunder, in each case in an amount equal to such Lender’s applicable Commitment Percentage times the outstanding amount of the Letters of Credit and disbursements thereunder. In the event that at the time a disbursement is made the unpaid balance of Revolving Advances exceeds or would exceed, with the making of such disbursement, the amount permitted under Section 2.1(a), and such disbursement is not reimbursed by Borrower within one (1) Business Day, Agent shall promptly notify each Lender and upon Agent’s demand each Lender shall pay to Agent such Lender’s proportionate share of such unreimbursed disbursement together with such Lender’s proportionate share of Agent’s unreimbursed costs and expenses relating to such unreimbursed disbursement. Upon receipt by Agent of a repayment from Borrower of any amount disbursed by Agent for which Agent had already been reimbursed by Lenders, Agent shall deliver to each Lender that Lender’s pro rata share of such repayment. Each Lender’s participation commitment shall continue until the last to occur of any of the following events: (A) Issuer ceases to be obligated to issue or cause to be issued Letters of Credit hereunder; (B) no Letters of Credit issued hereunder remain outstanding and 53

uncancelled or (C) all Persons (other than any Loan Party) have been fully reimbursed for all payments made under or relating to Letters of Credit. 2.12. Additional Payments. Any sums expended by Agent or any Lender due to any Loan Party’s failure to perform or comply with its obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document including, without limitation, any Loan Party’s obligations under Sections 4.2, 4.4, 4.12, 4.13, 4.14 and 6.1, may be charged to Borrower’s Account as a Revolving Advance maintained as a Domestic Rate Loan and added to the Obligations. 2.13. Manner of Borrowing and Payment. (a) Each borrowing of Revolving Advances shall be advanced according to the applicable Revolving Commitment Percentages of Lenders. (b) Each payment (including each prepayment) by Borrower on account of the principal of the Revolving Advances, shall be applied to the Revolving Advances pro rata according to the applicable Revolving Commitment Percentages of Lenders. Except as expressly provided herein, all payments (including prepayments) to be made by Borrower on account of principal, interest and fees shall be made without set-off or counterclaim and shall be made to Agent on behalf of the Lenders to the Payment Office, in each case on or prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York time), in Dollars and in immediately available funds. (c) (i)(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Sections 2.13(a) and 2.13(b), commencing with the first Business Day following the Closing Date, each borrowing of Revolving Advances shall be advanced by Agent and each payment by Borrower on account of Revolving Advances shall be applied first to those Revolving Advances advanced by Agent. On or before 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on each Settlement Date commencing with the first Settlement Date following the Closing Date, Agent and Lenders shall make certain payments as follows: (I) if the aggregate amount of new Revolving Advances made by Agent during the preceding week (if any) exceeds the aggregate amount of repayments applied to outstanding Revolving Advances during such preceding week, then each Lender shall provide Agent with funds in an amount equal to its applicable Commitment Percentage of the difference between (w) such Revolving Advances and (x) such repayments and (II) if the aggregate amount of repayments applied to outstanding Revolving Advances during such week exceeds the aggregate amount of new Revolving Advances made during such week, then Agent shall provide each Lender with funds in an amount equal to its applicable Commitment Percentage of the difference between (y) such repayments and (z) such Revolving Advances. (ii) Each Lender shall be entitled to earn interest at the applicable Contract Rate on outstanding Advances which it has funded. (iii) Promptly following each Settlement Date, Agent shall submit to each Lender a certificate with respect to payments received and Revolving Advances made during the week immediately preceding such Settlement Date. Such certificate of Agent shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. (d) If any Lender or Participant (a “benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of its Advances, or interest thereon, or receive any Collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily or by set-off) in a greater proportion than any such payment to and Collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other Lender’s Advances, or interest 54

thereon, and such greater proportionate payment or receipt of Collateral is not expressly permitted hereunder, such benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participation in such portion of each such other Lender’s Advances, or shall provide such other Lender 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 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. Each Lender so purchasing a portion of another Lender’s Advances may exercise all rights of payment (including, without limitation, rights of set-off) with respect to such portion as fully as if such Lender were the direct holder of such portion. (e) Unless Agent shall have been notified by telephone, confirmed in writing, by any Lender that such Lender will not make the amount which would constitute its applicable Commitment Percentage of the Advances available to Agent, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) assume that such Lender shall make such amount available to Agent on the next Settlement Date and, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrower a corresponding amount. Agent will promptly notify Borrower of its receipt of any such notice from a Lender. If such amount is made available to Agent on a date after such next Settlement Date, such Lender shall pay to Agent on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) the daily average Federal Funds Rate (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days) during such period as quoted by Agent, times (ii) such amount, times (iii) the number of days from and including such Settlement Date to the date on which such amount becomes immediately available to Agent. A certificate of Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph (e) shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error. If such amount is not in fact made available to Agent by such Lender within three (3) Business Days after such Settlement Date, Agent shall be entitled to recover such an amount, with interest thereon at the rate per annum then applicable to such Revolving Advances hereunder, on demand from Borrower; provided, however, that Agent’s right to such recovery shall not prejudice or otherwise adversely affect Borrower’s rights (if any) against such Lender. 2.14. Mandatory Prepayments. (a) When Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary sells or otherwise disposes of any Collateral, other than Inventory in the ordinary course of business, or a Casualty Event has occurred, then, unless a Reinvestment Notice shall be delivered in respect thereof within ten (10) days of Borrower’s or such Loan Party’s receipt of proceeds (including insurance proceeds, awards, or compensation) of such sale or other disposition or Casualty Event, Borrower shall repay the Advances made to Borrower in an amount equal to the Net Cash Proceeds, such repayments to be made promptly but in no event more than one (1) Business Day following receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds, and until the date of payment, such proceeds shall be held in trust for Agent; provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, on each Reinvestment Prepayment Date, an amount equal to the Reinvestment Prepayment Amount with respect to the relevant Reinvestment Event shall be applied toward the prepayment of the Advances and other amounts as set forth in this Section 2.14(a); and provided further, that so long as no Default or Event of Default shall exist or would result therefrom, and such Net Cash Proceeds of such a sale, disposition, or Casualty Event do not exceed $25,000,000 in any single transaction or series of related sales or dispositions, then no such prepayment shall be required. The foregoing shall not be deemed to be implied consent to any such sale otherwise prohibited by the terms and conditions hereof. Such repayments shall be applied to the Advances in such order as Agent may determine, subject to Borrower’s ability to reborrow Revolving Advances in accordance with the terms hereof. (b) Subject to the provisions of Section 4.11, Agent shall apply the proceeds of any insurance settlements from casualty losses which are received by Agent to the Advances in such order as 55

Agent may determine, subject to Borrower’s ability to reborrow Revolving Advances in accordance with the terms hereof. (c) [Reserved]. (d) [Reserved]. (e) If any Loan Party receives any proceeds from the issuance or incurrence of any Indebtedness (other than Permitted Indebtedness), Borrower shall repay the Advances made to Borrower in an amount equal to the net proceeds of such issuance or incurrence (i.e., gross proceeds less the reasonable costs of such issuance or incurrence), such repayments to be made promptly but in no event more than one (1) Business Day following receipt of such net proceeds, and until the date of payment, such proceeds shall be held in trust for Agent. The foregoing shall not be deemed to be implied consent to any such sale or issuance otherwise prohibited by the terms and conditions hereof. Such repayments shall be applied to the other Advances in such order as Agent may determine, subject to Borrower’s ability to reborrow Revolving Advances in accordance with the terms hereof. 2.15. Use of Proceeds. Borrower shall apply the proceeds of Advances to (i) pay fees and expenses relating to the Transactions, (ii) provide for its working capital needs and reimburse drawings under Letters of Credit and (iii) for other general corporate purposes. 2.16. Defaulting Lender. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, all rights and obligations hereunder of such Lender and of the other parties hereto shall be modified to the extent of the express provisions of this Section 2.16 while such Lender is a Defaulting Lender. (b) Advances shall be incurred pro rata from Lenders (the “Non-Defaulting Lenders”) which are not Defaulting Lenders based on their respective Commitment Percentages, and no Commitment Percentage of any Lender or any pro rata share of any Advances required to be advanced by any Lender shall be increased as a result of such Lender being a Defaulting Lender. Amounts received in respect of principal of any type of Advances shall be applied to reduce the applicable Advances of each Lender (other than any Defaulting Lender) pro rata based on the aggregate of the outstanding Advances of that type of all Lenders at the time of such application; provided that Agent shall not be obligated to transfer to a Defaulting Lender any payments received by Agent for the Defaulting Lender’s benefit, nor shall a Defaulting Lender be entitled to the sharing of any payments hereunder (including any principal, interest or fees). Amounts payable to a Defaulting Lender shall instead be paid to or retained by Agent. Agent may hold and, in its discretion, re-lend to Borrower the amount of such payments received or retained by it for the account of such Defaulting Lender. (c) A Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to give instructions to Agent or to approve, disapprove, consent to or vote on any matters relating to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents other than (i) any such amendment, waiver or consent to the extent that it relates to any matter that disproportionately affects any Defaulting Lender and (ii) any of the matters governed by Section 15.2(a)(i) through (iii) that affect such Lender. All amendments, waivers and other modifications of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be made without regard to a Defaulting Lender 56

and, for purposes of the definition of “Required Lenders”, a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a Lender and not to have either Advances outstanding or a Commitment Percentage. (d) Other than as expressly set forth in this Section 2.16, the rights and obligations of a Defaulting Lender (including the obligation to indemnify Agent) and the other parties hereto shall remain unchanged. Nothing in this Section 2.16 shall be deemed to release any Defaulting Lender from its obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, shall alter such obligations, shall operate as a waiver of any default by such Defaulting Lender hereunder, or shall prejudice any rights which Borrower, Agent or any Lender may have against any Defaulting Lender as a result of any default by such Defaulting Lender hereunder. (e) If Borrower, Agent, the Swingline Lender and the Issuer agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Advances of the other Lenders or take such other actions as Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Advances and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the Commitments under the applicable facility, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustment will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. (f) So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (i) the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loans unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect to such Swingline Loan and (ii) no Issuer shall be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto. 2.17. Bank Product Obligations and Lender-Provided Hedges. Each Lender or Affiliate thereof providing Bank Product Obligations for, or having Lender-Provided Hedges with, any Loan Party shall deliver to the Agent, promptly after entering into such Bank Product Obligations or Lender-Provided Hedges, written notice setting forth the aggregate amount of all Bank Product Obligations and Lender-Provided Hedges of such Loan Party to such Lender or Affiliate (whether matured or unmatured, absolute or contingent). In addition, each such Lender or Affiliate thereof shall deliver to the Agent, from time to time after a significant change therein or upon a request therefor, a summary of the amounts due or to become due in respect of such Bank Product Obligations and Lender-Provided Hedges. The most recent information provided to the Agent shall be used in determining the amounts to be applied in respect of such Bank Product Obligations and/or Lender-Provided Hedges pursuant to Section 11.2 and which tier of the waterfall contained in Section 11.2 such Bank Product Obligations and/or Lender-Provided Hedges will be placed. For the avoidance of doubt, so long as HSBC or its Affiliate is the Agent, neither HSBC nor any of its Affiliates providing Bank Product Obligations for, or having Lender-Provided Hedges with, any Loan Party or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of a Loan Party shall be required to provide any notice described in this Section 2.17 in respect of such Bank Product Obligations or Lender-Provided Hedges 57

III. INTEREST AND FEES. 3.1. Interest. Interest on Advances shall be payable to Agent for the benefit of Lenders in arrears on the applicable Interest Payment Date. Interest charges shall be computed on the actual principal amount of Advances outstanding during the calendar month at a rate per annum equal to (i) with respect to Revolving Advances, the applicable Revolving Interest Rate and (ii) with respect to Swingline Loans, the Revolving Interest Rate applicable to Revolving Advances maintained as Domestic Rate Loans (each such rate, as applicable, the “Contract Rate”). Whenever, subsequent to the date of this Agreement, the Base Rate is increased or decreased, the applicable Contract Rate for Domestic Rate Loans shall be similarly changed without notice or demand of any kind by an amount equal to the amount of such change in the Base Rate during the time such change or changes remain in effect. Upon and after the occurrence and during the continuance of any (x) Default or Event of Default under Sections 10.1, 10.7, or 10.8, all overdue Obligations shall bear interest at the applicable Contract Rate plus two percent (2.0%) per annum (the “Default Rate”), and (y) any other Default or Event of Default, upon the election of the Agent or the Required Lenders, all Obligations shall bear interest at the Default Rate. 3.2. Letter of Credit Fees; Cash Collateral. (a) Borrower shall pay (w) to Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders, fees for each Letter of Credit for the period from and excluding the date of issuance of same to and including the date of expiration or termination, equal to the average daily face amount of each outstanding Letter of Credit multiplied by the Letter of Credit Fee Percentage, the fees under this Section 3.2(a)(w) to be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed and to be payable quarterly in arrears on the first day of each quarter and on the last day of the Term, to Agent for the benefit of Issuer, (x) any and all customary fees and expenses in connection with any Letter of Credit, including, without limitation, in connection with the issuance, amendment or renewal of any such Letter of Credit, and (y) a fee equal to the greater of (i) one-eighth of one percent (0.125%) of the amount of each draft negotiated with respect to any Letter of Credit upon the payment thereof and (ii) $100 (all of the foregoing fees, the “Letter of Credit and Guarantee Fees”). All such charges shall be deemed earned in full on the date when the same are due and payable hereunder and shall not be subject to rebate or pro-ration upon the termination of this Agreement for any reason. Any such charge in effect at the time of a particular transaction shall be the charge for that transaction, notwithstanding any subsequent change in Issuer’s prevailing charges for that type of transaction. Upon and after the occurrence of an Event of Default, and during the continuation thereof, Agent may, and at the direction of the Required Lenders shall, increase the Letter of Credit and Guarantee Fees by two percent (2.0%) per annum. All Letter of Credit and Guarantee Fees payable hereunder shall be deemed earned in full on the date when the same are due and payable hereunder and shall not be subject to rebate or pro-ration upon the termination of this Agreement for any reason. (b) On demand from Agent or the Required Lenders at any time following (x) the occurrence of an Event of Default (whether or not such Event of Default is continuing) or (y) any termination of the Lenders’ commitment to make Revolving Advances, Borrower will cause cash to be deposited and maintained in an account with Agent, as cash collateral for the Obligations, in an amount equal to one hundred and five percent (105%) of the Letter of Credit Reserve, and Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes Agent, in its discretion, on Borrower’s behalf and in Borrower’s name, to open such an account and to make and maintain deposits therein, or in an account opened by Borrower, in the amounts required to be made by Borrower, out of the proceeds of Receivables or other Collateral or out of any other funds of Borrower coming into any Lender’s possession at any time. Agent will invest such cash collateral (less applicable reserves) in such short-term money-market items as to which Agent and 58

Borrower mutually agree and the net return on such investments shall be credited to such account and constitute additional cash collateral. Borrower may not withdraw amounts credited to any such account except upon payment and performance in full in cash of all Obligations (other than (A) contingent indemnification obligations as to which no claim has been asserted and (B) obligations and liabilities under Lender-Provided Hedges and Bank Product Obligations) and termination of this Agreement. 3.3. Unused Commitment Fee. Borrower shall pay to Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, a fee in an amount equal to (x) the Maximum Revolving Advance Amount minus the sum of (1) the average daily balance of the Revolving Advances during the immediately preceding quarter, plus,(2) the average daily face amount of the Letter of Credit Reserve during the immediately preceding quarter, multiplied by the applicable Commitment Fee Percentage. Such fee to be calculated on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year for the actual number of days elapsed and to be payable quarterly in arrears on the first day of each quarter following the Closing Date. For the avoidance of doubt, outstanding Swingline Loans shall not be counted towards or considered usage of Revolving Advances for purposes of determining the unused commitment fee. 3.4. Fee Letter. Borrower shall pay the amounts required to be paid in the Fee Letter in the manner and at the times required by the Fee Letter. 3.5. Computation of Interest and Fees. Interest and fees hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and for the actual number of days elapsed except that, with respect to Advances the rate of interest on which is calculated on the basis of the Base Rate, the interest thereon shall be calculated on the basis of a 365- (or 366-, as the case may be) day year for the actual days elapsed. If any payment to be made hereunder becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and interest thereon shall be payable at the applicable Contract Rate during such extension; provided that with respect to SOFR Loans, if extending such payment would cause the last day of the applicable Interest Period to be extended into the next calendar month, then the due date for such payment shall be the immediately preceding Business Day. 3.6. Maximum Charges. In no event whatsoever shall interest and other charges charged hereunder exceed the highest rate permissible under any Applicable Law. In the event interest and other charges as computed hereunder would otherwise exceed the highest rate permitted under Applicable Law, such excess amount shall be first applied to any unpaid principal balance owed by Borrower, and if the then remaining excess amount is greater than the previously unpaid principal balance, Lenders shall promptly refund such excess amount to Borrower and the provisions hereof shall be deemed amended to provide for such permissible rate. 3.7. Increased Costs. In the event that any Applicable Law, treaty or governmental regulation coming into effect after the Closing Date, or any change therein or any change in the interpretation or application thereof after the Closing Date, or compliance by any Lender (for purposes of this Section 3.7, the term “Lender” shall include Agent or any Lender and any corporation or bank controlling Agent or any Lender) and the office or branch where Agent or any Lender (as so defined) makes or maintains any SOFR Loans with any 59

request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Body arising after the Closing Date, shall: (a) subject Agent or any Lender to any Tax (other than (i) Indemnified Taxes, (ii) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (iii) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; (b) impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, assessment or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits in or for the account of, advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, any office of Agent or any Lender, including (without limitation) pursuant to Regulation D of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System; or (c) impose on Agent or any Lender any other condition with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Agent or any Lender of making, renewing or maintaining its Advances hereunder by an amount that Agent or such Lender reasonably deems to be material or to reduce the amount of any payment (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) in respect of any of the Advances by an amount that Agent or such Lender reasonably deems to be material, then, in any case Borrower shall promptly pay Agent or such Lender, upon its demand, such additional amount as will compensate Agent or such Lender for such additional cost or such reduction, as the case may be, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to increased costs which are reflected in Adjusted Term SOFR. Agent or such Lender shall certify the amount of such additional cost or reduced amount to Borrower, and such certification shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 3.8. Benchmark Replacement. (a) Benchmark Replacement. (i) 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 any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (a) 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 (b) 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 (5 th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. (ii) No Hedging Agreement shall be deemed to be a “Loan Document” for purposes of this Section 3.8). (b) Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, Agent will have the right to 60

make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. (c) Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement and (ii) the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement. Agent will promptly notify the Borrower of the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to Section 3.8(d). Any determination, decision or election that may be made by Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 3.8, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 3.8. (d) Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. 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 the Term SOFR Reference Rate) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the administrator of such Benchmark or 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 not or will not be representative or in compliance with or aligned with the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) Principles for Financial Benchmarks, then Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable, non-representative, non-compliant or non-aligned 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 not or will not be representative or in compliance with or aligned with the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) Principles for Financial Benchmarks for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor. (e) Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a SOFR Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of SOFR Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for an Advance or conversion to Domestic Rate Loans. During a Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of Base Rate. 3.9. Capital Adequacy. (a) In the event that Agent or any Lender shall have determined that any Applicable Law, rule, regulation or guideline regarding capital adequacy or liquidity, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation, application or administration thereof by any Governmental Body, central 61

bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by Agent or any Lender (for purposes of this Section 3.9, the term “Lender” shall include Agent or any Lender and any corporation or bank controlling Agent or any Lender) and the office or branch where Agent or any Lender (as so defined) makes or maintains any SOFR Loans with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy or liquidity (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Agent or any Lender’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which Agent or such Lender would have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration Agent’s and each Lender’s policies with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity) by an amount reasonably deemed by Agent or any Lender to be material, then, from time to time, Borrower shall pay upon demand to Agent or such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Agent or such Lender for such reduction. In determining such amount or amounts, Agent or such Lender may use any reasonable averaging or attribution methods. The protections of this Section 3.9 shall be available to Agent and each Lender regardless of any possible contention of invalidity or inapplicability with respect to the Applicable Law, regulation or condition. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, for all purposes under this Agreement, (x) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, regulations, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (y) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall, in either case, be deemed to have gone into effect after the Closing Date, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued. (b) A certificate of Agent or such Lender setting forth such amount or amounts as shall be necessary to compensate Agent or such Lender with respect to Section 3.9(a) when delivered to Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 3.10. Taxes. (a) For purposes of this Section 3.10, the term “Lender” includes the Issuer and the term “Applicable Law” includes FATCA. (b) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by Applicable Law. If any Applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Body in accordance with Applicable Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made. (c) The Loan Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Body in accordance with Applicable Law, or at the option of Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes. (d) The Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such 62

Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Body. Promptly upon having knowledge that any such Indemnified Taxes have been levied, imposed or assessed, and promptly upon notice by the Agent or any Lender, the Loan Parties shall pay such Indemnified Taxes directly to the relevant Governmental Body; provided that neither Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation to provide any such notice to the Loan Parties. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to Agent), or by Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Loan Parties hereby indemnify Agent, and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten days after demand therefor, for any amount which a Lender for any reason fails to pay to Agent as required by the Agreement. (e) Each Lender shall severally indemnify Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 15.3 relating to the maintenance of the Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by Agent in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Body. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes 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 or otherwise payable by Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to Agent under this paragraph (e). (f) As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Body pursuant to this Section 3.10, such Loan Party shall deliver to Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Body evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Agent. (g) (i)(i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall deliver to Borrower and Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or 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 Borrower or Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by Borrower or Agent as will enable Borrower or Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 3.10(g)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. (ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that Borrower is a Borrower that is a U.S. Person, (A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to Borrower and Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from 63

time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax; (B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower and Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or Agent), whichever of the following is applicable: (1) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, properly completed and duly executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, IRS Form W--8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty; (2) properly completed and duly executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI; (3) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit H-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) properly completed and duly executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E; or (4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, properly completed and duly executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, or IRS Form W-8BEN-E a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit H-2 or Exhibit H-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit H-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner; (C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower and Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by Applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by Applicable Law to permit Borrower or Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and 64

(D) if a payment made to a Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to Borrower and Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or Agent such documentation prescribed by Applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or Agent as may be necessary for Borrower and Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. (iii) On or before the date the Agent (or any successor Agent) becomes the Agent hereunder, it shall deliver to Borrower two (2) duly executed copies of either (A) IRS Form W-9 (or any successor forms) certifying that it is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding Tax or (B) a U.S. branch withholding certificate on IRS Form W-8IMY (or any successor forms) evidencing its agreement with Borrower to be treated as a U.S. Person (with respect to amounts received on account of any Lender party to this Agreement) and IRS Form W-8ECI (or any successor forms) (with respect to amounts received on its own account), with the effect that, in either case, Borrower will be entitled to make payments hereunder to the Agent without withholding or deduction on account of U.S. federal withholding Tax. The Agent agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered becomes expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification. Each Lender 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 Borrower and Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. (h) If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 3.10 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.10), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Body with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Body) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Body. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (h) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person. (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 3.10, Agent shall be entitled to withhold United States federal income taxes at the full 30% withholding rate if in its reasonable judgment it is required to do so under the due diligence requirements imposed upon a withholding agent under Treasury Regulations Section 1.1441-7(b). Further, Agent is indemnified under 65

Treasury Regulations Section 1.1461-1(e) against any claims and demands of any Lender or Participant for the amount of any tax it deducts and withholds in accordance with regulations under Section 1441 of the Code. (j) Each party’s obligations under this Section 3.10 shall survive the resignation or replacement of Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document. IV. COLLATERAL: GENERAL TERMS. 4.1. Security Interest in the Collateral. To secure the prompt payment and performance to Agent, the Issuer and each Lender of the Obligations, each Loan Party hereby assigns, pledges and grants to the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of Agent, the Issuer and each Lender a continuing security interest in and to all of the Collateral, whether now owned or existing or hereafter acquired or arising and wheresoever located. 4.2. Perfection of Security Interest. (a) Each Loan Party shall take all action that may be necessary or desirable that Agent may reasonably request, so as at all times to maintain the validity, perfection, enforceability and priority of Agent’s security interest in the Collateral or to enable Agent to protect, exercise or enforce its rights hereunder and in the Collateral, including, but not limited to, (i) promptly discharging all Liens other than Permitted Encumbrances, (ii) delivering to Agent, endorsed or accompanied by such instruments of assignment as Agent may reasonably specify, any and all chattel paper, instruments, letters of credits and advices thereof and documents evidencing or forming a part of the Collateral, in each case, to the extent such Collateral comprises part of the Pledged Collateral required to be delivered to the Collateral Agent under Section 4.2, and (iii) executing and/or delivering financing statements or other instruments of pledge, notices and assignments, in each case in form and substance satisfactory to Agent, relating to the creation, validity, perfection, maintenance or continuation of Agent’s security interest under the UCC or other Applicable Law. (b) Agent may at any time and from time to time file, without the signature of any Loan Party in accordance with Section 9-509 of the UCC, financing statements, continuation statements and amendments thereto that describe the Collateral as “all assets” (or equivalent language) of such Loan Party and which contain any other information required by the UCC for the sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any financing statements, continuation statements or amendments. Each Loan Party agrees to furnish any such information to Agent promptly upon request. (c) Each Loan Party shall, subject to the Perfection Exceptions, at any time and from time to time, take such steps as Agent may reasonably request to insure the continued perfection and priority of Agent’s security interest in any of the Collateral for the benefit of the Lenders and of its rights therein. If any Loan Party shall at any time, acquire a “commercial tort claim” with a value in excess of $5,000,000 individually (as such term is defined in the UCC), such Loan Party shall promptly notify Agent thereof in writing, therein providing a reasonable description and summary thereof, and upon delivery thereof to Agent, such Loan Party shall be deemed to thereby grant to Agent for the benefit of the Lenders (and each Loan Party hereby grants to Agent, for the benefit of each Lender) a security interest and lien in and to such commercial tort claim and all proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of and governed by this Agreement. 66

(d) Each Loan Party agrees to deliver or cause to be delivered to the Agent any and all (i) Pledged Equity Interests of Borrower and the Guarantors on the date hereof (subject to Section 6.11), (ii) Pledged Debt Securities in a principal amount in excess of $10,000,000 on the date hereof (subject to Section 6.11) and (iii) all other Pledged Equity Interests or Pledged Debt Securities required to be delivered pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, as promptly as practicable after the Closing Date (subject to Section 6.11), in each case, in the case of any such Pledged Equity Interests or Pledged Debt Securities owned by such Loan Party on the date hereof, and within 30 days of receipt by such Loan Party (or such later date as the Agent may agree in its sole discretion), in each case, in the case of any such Pledged Equity Interests or Pledged Debt Securities s acquired by such Loan Party after the date hereof. Each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that (i) to the extent any interest in any limited liability company or limited partnership controlled now or in the future by such Loan Party (or by such Loan Party and one or more other Loan Parties) and pledged hereunder is a “security” within the meaning of Article 8 of the UCC and is governed by Article 8 of the UCC, such interest shall be certificated or subject to a control agreement for such uncertificated interest; and such certificate shall be delivered to the Agent in accordance with this Section 4.2(d) and (ii) each such interest shall at all times hereafter continue to be such a security and represented by such certificate or subject to a control agreement. Each Loan Party further acknowledges and agrees that with respect to any interest in any limited liability company or limited partnership controlled now or in the future by such Loan Party (or by such Loan Party and one or more other Loan Parties) and pledged hereunder that is not a “security” within the meaning of Article 8 of the UCC, the terms of such interest shall at no time provide that such interest is a “security” within the meaning of Article 8 of the UCC, nor shall such interest be represented by a certificate, unless such Loan Party provides prior written notification to the Agent that the terms of such interest so provide that such interest is a “security” within the meaning of Article 8 of the UCC and such interest is thereafter represented by a certificate or subject to a control agreement; and such certificate shall be delivered to the Agent in accordance with this Section 4.2(d). (e) All charges, expenses and fees Agent may incur in doing any of the foregoing shall be paid by the Loan Parties in accordance with Section 15.9 of this Agreement. 4.3. [Reserved]. 4.4. Preservation of Collateral. In addition to the rights and remedies set forth in Section 11.1, Agent may following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default: (a) at any time take such steps as Agent deems necessary in its reasonable credit judgment to protect Agent’s interest in and to preserve the Collateral, including the hiring of such security guards or the placing of other security protection measures as Agent may deem appropriate; (b) employ and maintain at any Loan Party’s premises a custodian who shall have full authority to do all acts necessary to protect Agent’s interests in the Collateral; (c) lease warehouse facilities to which Agent may move all or part of the Collateral; and (d) use any Loan Party’s owned or leased lifts, hoists, trucks and other facilities or equipment for handling or removing the Collateral. In addition, following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default or in connection with any inspections or field examinations performed by or on behalf of Agent, Agent shall have, and is hereby granted, a right of ingress and egress to the places where the Collateral is located, and may proceed over and through any Loan Party’s owned or leased property. Each Loan Party shall cooperate fully with all of Agent’s efforts to preserve the Collateral and will take such actions to preserve the Collateral as Agent may direct. All of Agent’s expenses of preserving the Collateral, including any expenses relating to the bonding of a custodian, shall be paid by the Loan Parties in accordance with Section 15.9 of this Agreement. 67

4.5. Ownership of Collateral. (a) With respect to the Collateral, at the time the Collateral becomes subject to Agent’s security interest: (a) each Loan Party shall be the sole owner of and fully authorized and able to sell, transfer, pledge and/or grant a first priority security interest in each and every item of its respective Collateral to Agent; and, except for Permitted Encumbrances the Collateral shall be free and clear of all Liens and encumbrances whatsoever; (b) each document and agreement with respect to the Collateral executed by any Loan Party or delivered to Agent or any Lender in connection with this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects; and (c) all signatures and endorsements of each Loan Party that appear on such documents and agreements shall be genuine and each Loan Party shall have full capacity to execute same. 4.6. Defense of Agent’s and Lenders’ Interests. Until (a) payment and performance in full in cash of all of the Obligations (other than (A) contingent indemnification obligations as to which no claim has been asserted and (B) obligations and liabilities under Lender-Provided Hedges and Bank Product Obligations) and (b) termination of this Agreement, Agent’s security interests in the Collateral shall continue in full force and effect. During such period no Loan Party shall, without Agent’s prior written consent, pledge, sell (except Permitted Dispositions), assign, transfer, create or suffer to exist a Lien upon or encumber or allow or suffer to be encumbered in any way except for Permitted Encumbrances, any part of the Collateral. Each Loan Party shall defend Agent’s interests in the Collateral against any and all Persons whatsoever. Subsequent to the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, Agent shall have the right to take possession of the indicia of the Collateral and the Collateral in whatever physical form contained, including without limitation, labels, stationery, documents, instruments and advertising materials. If Agent exercises this right to take possession of the Collateral, each Loan Party shall, upon demand, assemble and make it available to Agent at one of such Loan Party’s locations set forth in Schedule 4.5 hereto. In addition, with respect to all Collateral, Agent and Lenders shall be entitled to all of the rights and remedies set forth herein and further provided by the UCC or other Applicable Law. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, each Loan Party shall, and Agent may, at its option, instruct all suppliers, carriers, forwarders, warehouses or others receiving or holding cash, checks, Inventory, documents or instruments in which Agent holds a security interest to deliver same to Agent and/or subject to Agent’s order and if they shall come into any Loan Party’s possession, they shall be held by such Loan Party in trust as Agent’s trustee, and such Loan Party will immediately deliver them to Agent in their original form together with any necessary endorsement. 4.7. Books and Records. Each Loan Party shall, in all material respects, (a) keep proper books of record and account in which full, true and correct entries will be made of all dealings or transactions of or in relation to its business and affairs; (b) set up on its books accruals with respect to all taxes, assessments, charges, levies and claims; and (c) on a reasonably current basis set up on its books, from its earnings, allowances against doubtful Receivables, advances and investments and all other proper accruals (including without limitation by reason of enumeration, accruals for premiums, if any, due on required payments and accruals for depreciation, obsolescence, or amortization of properties), which should be set aside from such earnings in connection with its business. All determinations pursuant to this Section 4.7 shall be made in accordance with, or as required by, GAAP consistently applied. 68

4.8. Financial Disclosure. Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Accountants and auditors employed by such Loan Party at any time during the Term to exhibit and deliver to Agent and each Lender copies of any of such Loan Party’s financial statements, trial balances or other accounting records of any sort in the Accountants’ or auditor’s possession, and to disclose to Agent and each Lender any information such Accountants may have concerning such Loan Party’s financial status and business operations. Each Loan Party hereby authorizes all federal, state and municipal authorities to furnish to Agent and each Lender copies of reports or examinations relating to such Loan Party, whether made by such Loan Party or otherwise; however, Agent will attempt to obtain such information or materials directly from the applicable Loan Party prior to obtaining such information or materials from such authorities. 4.9. Compliance with Laws. Each Loan Party shall comply with all acts, rules, regulations and orders of any Governmental Body applicable to the Collateral or any part thereof or to the operation of such Loan Party’s business the non-compliance with which would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Collateral at all times shall be maintained in all material respects in accordance with the requirements of all insurance carriers which provide insurance with respect to the Collateral so that such insurance shall remain in full force and effect. 4.10. Inspection of Premises. At (x) reasonable times during normal business hours (to be not more than once per fiscal year) with reasonable prior notice to Borrower (it being understood that at least two (2) Business Days’ notice will be considered reasonable prior notice) or (y) at any time following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (provided that no prior notice shall be required following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default), Agent shall have full access to and the right to audit, check, inspect and make abstracts and copies from each Loan Party’s books, records, audits, correspondence and all other papers, in each case, relating to the Collateral and the operation of such Loan Party’s business. At (x) reasonable times during business hours (to be not more than once per fiscal year) with reasonable prior notice to Borrower (it being understood that at least two (2) Business Days’ notice will be considered reasonable prior notice) or (y) at any time following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (provided that no prior notice shall be required following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default), Agent and its agents may enter upon any of any Loan Party’s premises for the sole purpose of inspecting the Collateral and any and all records pertaining thereto and the operation of such Loan Party’s business; provided that, that neither Agent and its agents may exercise the rights of visitation and in-person inspection hereunder with respect to any property of any Loan Party until such Loan Party has reopened such property from COVID-19 safety closures, and thereafter, such Agent and its agents shall only conduct such visits or inspections in accordance with (i) Applicable Law, including, for the avoidance of doubt, any guidelines published by the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention and (ii) the reasonable safety and health policies and/or procedures maintained at such time by such Loan Party, to the extent that such health policies and/or procedures are not maintained by such Loan Party in order to circumvent the requirements of this Section 4.10. 4.11. Insurance. Each Loan Party shall bear the full risk of any loss of any nature whatsoever with respect to the Collateral. At each Loan Parties’ own cost and expense in amounts and with carriers acceptable to 69

Agent, Loan Parties shall: (a) keep all its insurable properties and properties in which any Loan Party has an interest insured against the hazards of fire, flood, sprinkler leakage, those hazards covered by extended coverage insurance and such other hazards, and for such amounts, as is customary in the case of companies engaged in businesses similar to the Loan Parties including, without limitation, business interruption insurance; (b) maintain a bond in such amount as is customary in the case of companies in the same industry and of comparable size as the Loan Parties against larceny, embezzlement or other criminal misappropriation of insured’s officers and employees who may either singly or jointly with others at any time have access to the assets or funds of the Loan Parties either directly or through authority to draw upon such funds or to direct generally the disposition of such assets; (c) [reserved]; (d) maintain public and product liability insurance against claims for personal injury, death or property damage suffered by others; (e) maintain all such worker’s compensation or similar insurance as may be required under the laws of any state or jurisdiction in which the Loan Parties are engaged in business; (f) [reserved]; (g) [reserved]; and (h) furnish Agent with (i) copies of all policies and evidence of the maintenance of such policies by the renewal thereof at least thirty (30) days before any expiration date, and (ii) appropriate endorsements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent, naming Agent as a co-insured and lender’s loss payable as its interests may appear with respect to all insurance coverage referred to in clauses (a), (c), (d), (e) and (f) above, as applicable, and providing (A) that all proceeds thereunder shall be payable to Agent (excluding insurance coverage referred to in clauses (d) and (e) above), (B) no such insurance shall be affected by any act or neglect of the insured or owner of the property described in such policy other than nonpayment of premiums, and (C) that such policy and lender’s loss payable clauses may not be cancelled, amended or terminated unless at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice is given to Agent. In the event of any loss thereunder (excluding insurance coverage referred to in clauses (d) and (e) above), the carriers named therein hereby are directed by Agent and the Loan Parties to make payment for such loss to Agent and not to the applicable Loan Party and Agent jointly. If any insurance losses are paid by check, draft or other instrument payable to a Loan Party and Agent jointly, Agent may endorse such Loan Party’s name thereon and do such other things as Agent may deem advisable to reduce the same to cash. Following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, Agent is hereby authorized to adjust and compromise claims under insurance coverage referred to clause (a) above. All loss recoveries received by Agent upon any such insurance may be applied to the Obligations, in such order as Agent in its sole discretion shall determine. Any surplus shall be paid by Agent to Borrower within five (5) Business Days of receipt thereof or applied as may be otherwise required by law. Any deficiency thereon shall be paid by the Loan Parties to Agent, on demand. 4.12. [Reserved]. 4.13. Payment of Taxes. Each Loan Party will pay, before delinquency or before the expiration of any extension period, all Taxes, assessments and other charges lawfully levied or assessed upon such Loan Party or any of the Collateral by any Governmental Body, except (i) where such Taxes, assessments, fees or other charges are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted and which proper reserves have been taken by such Loan Party or (ii) where the failure to make such payments would not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 4.14. Payment of Leasehold Obligations. Each Loan Party shall at all times pay, when and as due, its rental obligations under all leases under which it is a tenant except where the failure to make such payments would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 70

4.15. [Reserved]. 4.16. [Reserved]. 4.17. [Reserved]. 4.18. Exculpation of Liability. Nothing herein contained shall be construed to constitute Agent or any Lender as Loan Parties’ agent for any purpose whatsoever, nor shall Agent or any Lender be responsible or liable for any shortage, discrepancy, damage, loss or destruction of any part of the Collateral wherever the same may be located and regardless of the cause thereof. Neither Agent nor any Lender, whether by anything herein or in any assignment or otherwise, assume any of any Loan Party’s obligations under any contract or agreement assigned to Agent or such Lender, and neither Agent nor any Lender shall be responsible in any way for the performance by any Loan Party of any of the terms and conditions thereof. 4.19. [Reserved]. 4.20. Financing Statements. Other than the financing statements filed by Agent with respect to the transactions contemplated under this Agreement and the financing statements evidencing Permitted Encumbrances, including (but not limited to) those described on Schedule 7.2, no Loan Party has authorized the filing of any financing statement covering any of the Collateral. 4.21. [Reserved]. 4.22. Agent as Collateral Agent. (a) Each Lender hereby authorizes Agent to (i) execute, deliver and perform as a collateral agent under this Agreement and each other Loan Document to which Agent is or is intended to be a party, (ii) exercise and enforce any and all rights, powers and remedies provided to Agent or any Lender by this Agreement and each other Loan Document to which Agent is or is intended to be a party, any Applicable Law, or any other document, instrument, or agreement, and (iii) take any other action under this Agreement and each other Loan Document to which Agent is or is intended to be a party which Agent in its sole discretion shall deem advisable and in the best interests of the Lenders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Agent shall not commence an enforcement action except at the direction of the Required Lenders; provided that if Agent is prohibited by any court order or applicable law from commencing any enforcement action, Agent shall not be obligated to commence such enforcement action until such authority is obtained. All decisions with respect to the type of enforcement action which is to be commenced shall be made by, and all actions with respect to prosecution and settlement of such enforcement action shall require the direction of the Required Lenders, and Agent shall not be required to take any enforcement action in the absence of any such direction. Agent will use its commercially reasonable efforts to pursue diligently the prosecution of any enforcement action, which Agent is so authorized or directed to initiate pursuant to this Agreement. Agent shall make available to the Lenders copies of all notices it receives in connection with the Collateral or any enforcement action promptly upon receipt. (b) Agent may, but shall not be obligated, to take such action as it deems necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of the Liens on the Collateral held for the benefit of the Lenders. Agent shall not release any of the Collateral held for the benefit of the Lenders, or any Liens on the 71

Collateral held for the benefit of the Lenders, except (i) upon the written direction of the Required Lenders (or of all Lenders if required under Section 15.2(b)), (ii) upon payment in full in cash of the Obligations (other than (A) contingent indemnification obligations as to which no claim has been asserted and (B) obligations and liabilities under Lender-Provided Hedges and Bank Product Obligations), the termination of all Commitments under this Agreement and the cash collateralization of all Letters of Credit in accordance with this Agreement (or as otherwise acceptable to the Issuer in its sole discretion), (iii) for Collateral consisting of a debt instrument if the indebtedness evidenced thereby has been paid in full, (iv) where such release is expressly permitted under the Loan Documents to which it is a party or (v) with respect to any Receivable that is sold or pledged in connection with any Permitted Receivables Indebtedness. (c) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Agent agrees to administer and enforce this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party and to foreclose upon, collect and dispose of the Collateral and to apply the proceeds therefrom, for the benefit of Agent, the Issuer and each Lender, as provided in this Agreement, and otherwise to perform its duties and obligations as the collateral agent hereunder in accordance with the terms hereof; provided, however, that Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents to which it is a party as Collateral Agent, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into any such Loan Documents against Agent. Agent will use its commercially reasonable efforts to pursue diligently the enforcement of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, which Agent is so authorized or directed to initiate pursuant to this Agreement. (d) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action but shall only be required to act or refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the written instructions of the Required Lenders, in each case, as specified therein, and such instructions shall be binding upon Agent, the Issuer and each Lender; provided, however, that the written instructions of Agent, the Issuer and each Lender shall be required where expressly provided for herein; and provided, further, that Agent shall not be required to take any action which is contrary to any provision herein or Applicable Law. (e) Agent may at any time request instructions from the Required Lenders as to a course of action to be taken by it hereunder and any of the other Loan Documents or in connection herewith and therewith or any other matters relating hereto and thereto. (f) Unless otherwise consented to in writing by Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders), no Lender or Issuer, individually or together with any other Lenders or the Issuer, shall have the right, nor shall it, exercise or enforce any of the rights, powers or remedies which Agent is authorized to exercise or enforce under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. (g) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, in no event shall Agent be required to foreclose on, or take possession of, the Collateral, if, in the judgment of Agent, such action would be in violation of any Applicable Law, rule or regulation pertaining thereto, or if Agent reasonably believes that such action would result in the incurrence of liability by Agent for which it is not fully indemnified by the Issuer and each Lender. (h) Neither Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable or responsible for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or in connection herewith, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment). 72

(i) Agent shall not be responsible to the Issuer and each Lender for (i) any recital statements, representations or warranties by Borrower or any of the Issuer and Lenders contained in this Agreement or the Loan Documents, or any certificate or other document delivered by Borrower or the Issuer and each Lender thereunder, (ii) the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability (other than as to Agent with respect to such documents to which Agent is a party) or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other document referred to or provided for herein or therein or of the Collateral held by Agent hereunder, (iii) the performance or observance by Borrower or any of the Issuer and Lenders of any of their respective agreements contained herein or therein, nor shall Agent be liable because of the invalidity or unenforceability of any provisions of this Agreement (other than as to itself) or (iv) the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens in any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part hereunder (except to the extent such action or omission constitutes gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment, on the part of Agent), the validity of the title of Borrower to the Collateral, insuring the Collateral or the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Collateral. (j) The powers conferred on Agent under this Agreement and any of the other Loan Documents are solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Except for the safe custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession and the accounting for monies actually received by it, Agent shall have no other duty as to the Collateral, whether or not Agent or any of the other Lenders or the Issuer has or is deemed to have knowledge of any matters, or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties or any other rights pertaining to the Collateral. Agent hereby agrees to exercise reasonable care in respect of the custody and preservation of the Collateral. Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which Agent accords its own property. (k) Upon the payment in full in cash of the Obligations (other than (A) contingent indemnification obligations as to which no claim has been asserted and (B) obligations and liabilities under Lender-Provided Hedges and Bank Product Obligations), the termination of all Commitments under this Agreement, the cash collateralization of all Letters of Credit in accordance with this Agreement (or as otherwise acceptable to the Issuer in its sole discretion), and the termination of this Agreement or as may be otherwise directed by Required Lenders (or of all Lenders if required under Section 15.2(b)) in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement, all rights to the Collateral as shall not have been sold or otherwise applied, in each case, pursuant to the terms hereof, shall revert to the applicable Loan Parties, their respective successors or permitted assigns, or otherwise as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

Any judgment or judgments are rendered or judgment liens filed against any Loan Party for an aggregate amount in excess of $10,000,000 (except to the extent fully covered (other than to the extent of customary deductibles) by insurance pursuant to which the insurer has not denied coverage) which within thirty (30) days of such rendering or filing is not either satisfied, stayed or discharged of record; 10.7.

Any Loan Party or any Subsidiary of a Loan Party shall admit in writing its inability, or be generally unable, to pay its debts as they become due or cease operations of its present business; 10.9. The validity or enforceability of any Loan Document shall at any time for any reason (other than solely as the result of an action or failure to act on the part of Agent) be declared to be null and void, or a proceeding shall be commenced by a Loan Party or its Subsidiaries, or by any Governmental Body having jurisdiction over a Loan Party or its Subsidiaries, seeking to establish the invalidity or unenforceability thereof, or a Loan Party or its Subsidiaries shall deny that such Loan Party or its Subsidiaries has any liability or obligation purported to be created under any Loan Document; 10.10. (a) Any Loan Party or Restricted Subsidiary shall fail to make any payment (whether of principal or interest and regardless of amount) in respect of any Material Indebtedness when and as the same shall become due and payable (after giving effect to any applicable grace period), or (b) any breach or default with respect to any Material Indebtedness occurs by any Loan Party or Restricted Subsidiary, in each case beyond the grace period, if any, provided therefor, if the effect of such breach or default is to cause, or to permit the holder or holders of that Material Indebtedness (or a trustee on behalf of such holder or holders) to cause, that Material Indebtedness to become or be declared due and payable (or redeemable) prior to its stated maturity; 10.11. Any material provision of this Agreement shall, for any reason, cease to be valid and binding on any Loan Party, or any Loan Party shall so claim in writing to Agent; 10.12.

Any Change of Control shall occur; 10.14. The Guaranty or any other Loan Document that purports to create a Lien, shall, for any reason, fail or cease to create a valid and perfected and, (except to the extent of Permitted Encumbrances which are non-consensual Permitted Encumbrances, permitted purchase money Liens or the interests of lessors under Capital Leases) first priority Lien on the Collateral covered thereby, except (a) as a result 96

of a disposition of the applicable Collateral in a transaction permitted under this Agreement, (b) as the result of an action or failure to act on the part of Agent or (c) to the extent the Collateral secured thereby has a fair market value not in excess of $5.000,000. 10.15. An event or condition specified in Section 7.13 or Section 9.15 shall occur or exist with respect to any Plan and, as a result of such event or condition, together with all other such events or conditions, any Loan Party or any member of the Controlled Group shall incur or would be reasonably likely to incur, a liability to a Plan or the PBGC (or both) which would have a Material Adverse Effect. XI. LENDERS’ RIGHTS AND REMEDIES AFTER DEFAULT. 11.1. Rights and Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of (i) an Event of Default pursuant to Section 10.7 or 10.8, all Obligations shall be immediately due and payable and the obligation of Lenders to make Advances shall be deemed terminated, or (ii) the other Events of Default specified in Article X, and at any time thereafter (such Event of Default not having previously been waived in accordance with this Agreement), Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) (and at the direction of the Required Lenders shall) upon written notice to the Loan Parties, declare all of the Obligations immediately due and payable and terminate this Agreement and terminate the obligation of Lenders to make Advances and (iii) a filing of a petition against any Loan Party in any involuntary case under any state or federal bankruptcy laws, the obligation of Lenders to make Advances hereunder shall be terminated other than as may be required by an appropriate order of the bankruptcy court having jurisdiction over the Loan Parties. Upon the occurrence and continuation of any Event of Default, Agent shall have the right to exercise any and all other rights and remedies provided for herein, under the UCC and at law or equity generally, including, without limitation, the right to foreclose the security interests granted herein and to realize upon any Collateral by any available judicial procedure and/or to take possession of and sell any or all of the Collateral with or without judicial process. In furtherance of such exercise Agent may enter any Loan Party’s premises or other premises without legal process and without incurring liability to such Loan Party therefor, and Agent may thereupon, or at any time thereafter, in its discretion without notice or demand, take the Collateral and remove the same to such place as Agent may deem advisable and Agent may require such Loan Party to make the Collateral available to Agent at a convenient place. With or without having the Collateral at the time or place of sale, Agent may sell the Collateral, or any part thereof, at public or private sale, at any time or place, in one or more sales, at such price or prices, and upon such terms, either for cash, credit or future delivery, as Agent may elect. Except as to that part of the Collateral which is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, Agent shall give the Loan Parties reasonable notification of such sale or sales, it being agreed that in all events written notice mailed to the Loan Parties at least ten (10) days prior to such sale or sales is reasonable notification. At any public sale Agent or any Lender may bid for and become the purchaser, and Agent, any Lender or any other purchaser at any such sale thereafter shall hold the Collateral sold absolutely free from any claim or right of whatsoever kind, including any equity of redemption and such right and equity are hereby expressly waived and released by each Loan Party. Agent may specifically disclaim any warranties of title or the like at any sale of Collateral. In connection with and solely during the duration of the exercise of the foregoing remedies, Agent is granted permission to use without charge all of each Loan Party’s trademarks, trade styles, trade names, patents, patent applications, and other proprietary rights which are used in connection with the foregoing. 11.2. Application of Proceeds. The proceeds realized from the sale of any Collateral shall be applied as follows: first, to the reasonable costs, expenses and attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred by Agent for collection and for 97

acquisition, completion, protection, removal, storage, sale and delivery of the Collateral and for any other amounts due to Agent; second, to interest due upon any of the Swingline Loans; third, to the principal of the Swingline Loans; fourth, to fees payable in connection with this Agreement; fifth, to interest due upon any of the Obligations; sixth, ratably, to (i)furnish to Agent cash collateral in an amount not less than 105% of the Letter of Credit Reserve, such cash collateral arrangements to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent and (ii) ratably, to the principal of the Obligations, including Lender-Provided Hedges and Bank Product Obligations up to any including the amount most recently provided to the Agent pursuant to Section 2.17; and seventh, ratably, to the other Obligations. All such payments hereunder shall be shared ratably among the Lenders holding such Obligations based upon their respective Commitment Percentages. If any deficiency shall arise, each Loan Party shall remain liable to Agent and Lenders therefor. If it is determined by an authority of competent jurisdiction that a disposition by Agent did not occur in a commercially reasonable manner, Agent may obtain a deficiency judgment for the difference between the amount of the Obligation and the amount that a commercially reasonable sale would have yielded. Agent will not be considered to have offered to retain the Collateral in satisfaction of the Obligations unless Agent, subject to Section 15.2(b) hereof, has entered into a written agreement with Loan Parties to that effect. 11.3. Agent’s Discretion. Agent (acting with the consent of the Required Lenders or all Lenders to the extent required by Section 15.2(b)) shall have the right in its sole discretion to determine which rights, Liens, security interests or remedies Agent may at any time pursue, relinquish, subordinate, or modify or to take any other action with respect thereto and such determination will not in any way modify or affect any of Agent’s or Lenders’ rights hereunder; provided, however, that, in the absence of such direction, Agent may (but shall not be obligated or have any duty to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to any Event of Default as it shall deem advisable and in the best interests of the Lenders and the Issuer and solely to the extent permitted hereunder or pursuant to the other Loan Documents; provided, further, that Agent shall not be obligated to follow any direction by Required Lenders if Agent reasonably determines that such direction is in conflict with any provisions hereunder or under any Applicable Law, and Agent shall not, under any circumstances, be liable to any Lenders, the Issuer, Borrower, the Guarantors or any other Person for following the direction of Required Lenders. At all times, if Agent acting at the direction of the Required Lenders advises the Lenders that it wishes to proceed in good faith with respect to any of its rights and remedies, each of the Lenders will cooperate in good faith with respect to such rights and remedies and will not unreasonably delay the enforcement of the security interests provided for herein. 11.4. Setoff. In addition to any other rights which Agent, any Lender or the Issuer may have under Applicable Law, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default hereunder, Agent, such Lender and such Issuer and their Affiliates shall have a right to apply any Loan Party’s property held by Agent, such Lender or such Issuer and their Affiliates to reduce the Obligations. If any party (or its Affiliate) exercises the right of setoff provided for hereunder, such party shall be obligated to share any such setoff in accordance with Section 2.13(d). 11.5. Rights and Remedies Not Exclusive. The authority to enforce rights and remedies under this Agreement and other Loan Documents against Borrower or any Guarantor shall be vested in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained by, Agent for the benefit of all the Lenders and the Issuer. The enumeration of the foregoing rights and remedies is not intended to be 98

exhaustive and the exercise of any right or remedy shall not preclude the exercise of any other right or remedies provided for herein or otherwise provided by Applicable Law, all of which shall be cumulative and not alternative. XII. WAIVERS AND JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS. 12.1. Waiver of Notice. Each Loan Party hereby waives notice of non-payment of any of the Receivables, demand, presentment, protest and notice thereof with respect to any and all instruments, notice of acceptance hereof, notice of loans or advances made, credit extended, Collateral received or delivered, or any other action taken in reliance hereon, and all other demands and notices of any description, except such as are expressly provided for herein to the extent not prohibited by law. 12.2. Delay. No delay or omission on Agent’s or any Lender’s part in exercising any right, remedy or option shall operate as a waiver of such or any other right, remedy or option or of any default. 12.3. Jury Waiver. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION (A) ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT EXECUTED OR DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH, OR (B) IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO OR ANY OF THEM WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT EXECUTED OR DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH, OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO OR THERETO IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE AND EACH PARTY HEREBY CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY, AND THAT ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENTS OF THE PARTIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. XIII. EFFECTIVE DATE AND TERMINATION. 13.1. Term. This Agreement, which shall inure to the benefit of and shall be binding upon the respective successors and permitted assigns of each Loan Party, Agent and each Lender, shall become effective on the date hereof and shall continue in full force and effect until the Termination Date. Borrower may permanently reduce the Maximum Revolving Advance Amount, at any time upon ten (10) days’ prior written notice to Agent, upon payment in full in cash of any Obligations in excess of the maximum amount of Revolving Advances then permitted under Section 2.1 and payment of all amounts which may be owed pursuant to Section 15.5(b), after giving effect to the reduced Maximum Revolving Advance Amount; provided that the Maximum Revolving Advance Amount may not be reduced to an amount less 99

than $25,000,000 except in connection with the termination of all Commitments and the payment in full in cash of all Obligations. 13.2. Termination. The termination of the Agreement shall not affect any Loan Party’s, Agent’s or any Lender’s rights, or any of the Obligations having their inception prior to the effective date of such termination, and the provisions hereof shall continue to be fully operative until all transactions entered into, rights or interests created or Obligations have been fully disposed of, concluded or liquidated. The security interests, Liens and rights granted to Agent and Lenders hereunder and the financing statements filed hereunder shall continue in full force and effect, notwithstanding the termination of this Agreement or the fact that Borrower’s Account may from time to time be temporarily in a zero or credit position, until all of the Obligations of the Loan Parties have been paid or performed in full after the termination of this Agreement or the Loan Parties have furnished Agent and Lenders with an indemnification satisfactory to Agent and Lenders with respect thereto. Accordingly, each Loan Party waives any rights which it may have under Section 9-513(c) of the UCC to demand the filing of termination statements with respect to the Collateral, and Agent shall not be required to send such termination statements to any Loan Party, or to file them with any filing office, unless and until this Agreement shall have been terminated in accordance with its terms and all Obligations (other than Obligations exclusively with respect to the Letter of Credit Reserve if Borrower shall have furnished Agent with cash collateral in an amount not less than 105% of the Letter of Credit Reserve) paid in full in cash in immediately available funds. All representations, warranties, covenants, waivers and agreements contained herein or in any Loan Document shall survive termination hereof until all Obligations are paid or performed in full in cash, as such representations and warranties may change from time to time as contemplated in Section 8.2. XIV. REGARDING AGENT. 14.1. Appointment. Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and designates HSBC to act as Agent for such Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and to perform such duties hereunder and thereunder as are specifically delegated to or required of Agent by the terms hereof and thereof and such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto and Agent shall hold all Collateral, payments of principal and interest, fees (except the fees set forth in Section 3.4 and the Fee Letter), charges and collections (without giving effect to any collection days) received pursuant to this Agreement, for the ratable benefit of Lenders. Agent may perform any of its duties hereunder by or through its agents or employees. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement (including without limitation, collection of the Notes), Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the written instructions of the Required Lenders or all Lenders to the extent required under Section 15.2(b), and such instructions shall be binding; provided, however, that Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or Applicable Law, including, for the avoidance of doubt, any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of a property interest in violation of any applicable bankruptcy/insolvency laws and Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to act under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it first receives further assurances of its indemnification from the Lenders that Agent reasonably believes it may require, including prepayment of any related expenses and any other protection it requires against any and all 100

costs, expenses and liabilities it may incur in taking or continuing to take any such discretionary action at the direction of the Required Lenders. Unless otherwise consented to in writing by Agent (acting at the direction of the Required Lenders), no Lender or Issuer, individually or together with any other Lenders or the Issuer, shall have the right, nor shall it, exercise or enforce any of the rights, powers or remedies which Agent is authorized to exercise or enforce under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. 14.2. Nature of Duties. Agent shall have no duties, obligations or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, any security agreements, documents or instruments executed in connection therewith, and its duties thereunder shall be administrative in nature only, whether or not a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. None of Agent, any Lender, or the Issuer nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents shall be (i) liable for any action taken or omitted by them as such hereunder or in connection herewith, unless caused by their gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment), or (ii) responsible in any manner for (A) any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any Loan Party or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or in any of the Loan Documents, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, or (B) the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, or of the Collateral held by Agent hereunder, (C) any failure of any Loan Party to perform their respective obligations hereunder, (D) the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens in any of the Collateral, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on Agent’s part hereunder, or (E) the validity of the title of Borrower to the Collateral, insuring the Collateral or the payment of taxes, charges, assessments or Liens upon the Collateral or otherwise as to the maintenance of the Collateral. Agent shall not be responsible for, have any duty or be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with the 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 observance or performance of any of the covenants or agreements contained in, or terms or conditions of, this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, including the satisfaction of any conditions precedent set forth in this Agreement, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to Agent, or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) to inspect the properties, books or records of any Loan Party. Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement and in the other Loan Documents, any information relating to Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. Agent shall not be liable for any damages arising for the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby. In no event shall Agent be required to expend or risk any of its own funds or otherwise incur any liability, financial or otherwise, in the performance of its duties under the Loan Documents or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. The duties of Agent as with respect to the Advances shall be mechanical and administrative in nature; Agent shall not have by reason of this Agreement a fiduciary relationship in respect of any 101

Lender; and nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement except as expressly set forth herein. Use of the term “agent” in the Agreement or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to Agent does not connote (and is not intended to connote), any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligation arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between the contracting parties. Agent shall not incur any liability for not performing any act or fulfilling any duty, obligation or responsibility hereunder by reason of any occurrence beyond the control of Agent (including but not limited to any act or provision of any present or future law or regulation or Governmental Body, any act of God or war, civil unrest, local or national disturbance or disaster, any act of terrorism, or the unavailability of the Federal Reserve Bank wire or facsimile or other wire or communication facility). 14.3. Lack of Reliance on Agent and Resignation. (a) Independently and without reliance upon Agent, the Issuer or any other Lender, each Lender has made and shall continue to make (i) its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of each Loan Party in connection with the making and the continuance of the Advances hereunder and the taking or not taking of any action in connection herewith, and (ii) its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of each Loan Party. Except as set forth in Section 14.9, Agent shall have no duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before making of the Advances or at any time or times thereafter. Agent shall not be responsible to any Lender for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties herein or in any agreement, document, certificate or a statement delivered in connection with or for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or of the financial condition of any Loan Party, or be required to make any inquiry concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Agreement, the Notes, the Loan Documents or the financial condition of any Loan Party, or the existence of any Event of Default or any Default. (b) Any entity into which Agent in its individual capacity may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidations which Agent in its individual capacity may be party, or any corporation to which substantially all of the corporate trust or agency business of Agent in its individual capacity may be transferred, shall be Agent under this Agreement without further action. (c) Agent may at any time resign on thirty (30) days’ written notice to each of Lenders, the Issuer and Borrower (the “Resignation Effective Date”) and upon such resignation, the Required Lenders will promptly designate a successor Agent reasonably satisfactory to Borrower. If no such successor Agent is appointed at the end of such thirty (30) day period, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) designate one of the Lenders as a successor Agent, subject to the acceptance of such Lender; provided that, if no Lender accepts appointment as a successor Agent, then Agent shall be entitled to apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Agent or for other appropriate relief. The costs and expenses (including its’ attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by Agent in connection with such proceeding shall be paid by the Lenders. (d) With effect from the Resignation Effective Date, (i) the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and other Loan Documents and (ii) 102

except for any indemnity payments owed to the retiring or removed Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and the Issuer directly, until such time, if any, a successor Agent has been appointed as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments owed to the retiring Agent). Until a successor Agent is appointed, the retiring Agent shall continue to hold the Liens on the Collateral on behalf of the Lenders, Issuer and Swingline Lender, but otherwise shall be discharged from all of its other duties and obligations under this Agreement and other Loan Documents as of the Resignation Effective Date. Notwithstanding the Resignation Effective Date, all rights of the retiring Agent (and any sub-agent) to indemnification by Borrower and Lenders shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent, its sub-agents and their Indemnitees in respect of any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Agent was acting as Agent. After Agent’s resignation as Agent, the provisions of this Article XIV shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement. 14.4. Certain Rights of Agent. If Agent shall request instructions from Lenders with respect to any act or action (including failure to act) in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such action unless and until Agent shall have received written instructions from the Required Lenders; and Agent shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining. Without limiting the foregoing, Lenders shall not have any right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of its acting or refraining from acting hereunder in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders or all Lenders as required by Section 15.2(b). Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary power, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Agreement that Agent is required to exercise and only so long as so directed in writing to take such discretionary action by the Required Lenders provided, however, that Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or Applicable Law, including, for the avoidance of doubt, any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of a property interest in violation of any applicable bankruptcy/insolvency laws and Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to act under the Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it first receives further assurances of its indemnification from the Lenders that Agent reasonably believes it may require, including prepayment of any related expenses and any other protection it requires against any and all costs, expenses and liabilities it may incur in taking or continuing to take any such discretionary action at the direction of the Required Lenders. 14.5. Reliance. Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely, and shall be fully protected in and shall not incur any liability for relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, request, consent, statement, certificate, instrument, teletype, cablegram, order, document or other writing (including any electronic or telecopier message, internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) in good faith believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or entity, and, with respect to all legal matters pertaining to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and its duties hereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by it. 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 to the making of any 103

Advance, Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or Issuer unless Agent receives notice to the contrary from such Lender or Issuer prior to the making of such Advance. Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents or attorneys-in-fact appointed by Agent. Agent and any such sub-agent or attorney-in-fact 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 the Agreement shall apply to any such sub-agent or attorney-in-fact. Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agent or attorney-in-fact except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non-appealable judgment that Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agent or attorney-in-fact. Agent shall be entitled to take any action or refuse to take any action which Agent regards as necessary for Agent to comply with any Applicable Law, regulation or court order. Agent may consult with legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. 14.6. Notice of Default. Except for actual knowledge of non-payment of the Obligations, Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder or under the Loan Documents, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to Agent for the account of the Lenders, unless Agent has received written notice from a Lender or any Loan Party referring to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default” or “notice of event of default”. In the event that Agent receives such a notice, Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to Lenders. Agent may take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default (including, without limitation, the institution of the Default Rate pursuant to Section 3.1 hereof) as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents; provided that, unless and until Agent shall have received such directions, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default (including, without limitation, the institution of the Default Rate pursuant to Section 3.1 hereof) as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of Lenders. 14.7. Indemnification. To the extent Agent is not reimbursed and indemnified by the Loan Parties for any amount required under Section 15.5(a) to be paid by the Loan Parties to Agent, each Lender will severally reimburse and indemnify Agent in proportion to its respective portion of the Advances (or, if no Advances are outstanding, according to its Commitment Percentage), for such unpaid amount (including any such unpaid amount in respect of a claim asserted by such Lender); provided that Lenders shall not be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the indemnified party’s bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment); and provided further, that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against Agent in its capacity as such. 104

14.8. Agent in its Individual Capacity. With respect to the obligation of Agent to lend under this Agreement, the Advances made by it shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Lender and as if it were not performing the duties as Agent specified herein; and the term “Lender” or any similar term shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender. Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for, and generally engage in any kind of business with any Loan Party as if it were not performing the duties specified herein, and may accept fees and other consideration from the Loan Parties for services in connection with this Agreement or otherwise without having to account for the same to Lenders. Each Loan Party agrees to pay to Agent, for each of their own account, the fees payable in the amounts and at the times set forth in the Fee Letter. 14.9. Delivery of Documents. To the extent Agent receives documents and information from the Loan Parties pursuant to Sections 9.7, 9.8, and 9.12, Agent will promptly furnish such documents and information to Lenders. 14.10. Loan Parties’ Undertaking to Agent. Without prejudice to its obligations to Lenders under the other provisions of this Agreement, each Loan Party hereby undertakes with Agent to pay to Agent from time to time on demand all amounts from time to time due and payable by it for the account of Agent or Lenders or any of them pursuant to this Agreement to the extent not already paid. Any payment made pursuant to any such demand shall pro tanto satisfy such Loan Party’s obligations to make payments for the account of Lenders or the relevant one or more of them pursuant to this Agreement. 14.11. Bankruptcy Proceedings. In case of any bankruptcy or other insolvency proceeding involving Borrower (a “Bankruptcy Proceeding”), Agent shall be entitled, but not obligated to, to intervene in such Bankruptcy Proceeding to (a) file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal, interest and unpaid fees in respect of the Revolving Advances, issued Letters of Credit and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid under the terms of this Agreement and other Loan Documents and to file such documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the Issuer and Agent (including any claim for reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of any of the foregoing entities and their respective agents, counsel and other advisors) allowed in such Bankruptcy Proceedings; and (b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on account of any such claims and to distribute the same to the Lenders and the Issuer under the terms of this Agreement. Further, any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator or similar official in any such Bankruptcy Proceeding is (i) authorized to make payments or distributions in a Bankruptcy Proceeding directly to Agent on behalf of all of the Lenders or the Issuer to whom any amounts are owed under this Agreement and other Loan Documents, unless Agent expressly consents in writing to the making of such payments or distributions directly to such Lenders and the Issuer; and (ii) required to pay to Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due to Agent under this Agreement and other Loan Documents. 14.12. No Liability for Clean-Up of Hazardous Materials. In the event that Agent is required to acquire title to an asset for any reason, or take any managerial action of any kind in regard thereto, in order to carry out any obligation for the benefit of 105

another, which in Agent’s sole discretion may cause Agent to be considered an “owner or operator” under the provisions of CERCLA, or otherwise cause Agent to incur liability under CERCLA or any other federal, state or local law, Agent reserves the right, instead of taking such action, to either resign as Agent or arrange for the transfer of the title or control of the asset to a court-appointed receiver. Except for such claims or actions arising directly from the gross negligence, or willful misconduct of Agent, Agent shall not be liable to any Person or entity for any environmental claims or contribution actions under any federal, state or local law, rule or regulation by reason of Agent’s actions and conduct as authorized, empowered and directed hereunder, including in or relating to the discharge, release or threatened release of Hazardous Substances into the environment. If at any time after any foreclosure on the Collateral (or a transfer in lieu of foreclosure) upon the exercise of remedies in accordance with the terms of this Agreement it is necessary or advisable to take possession, own, operate or manage any portion of the Collateral by any Person or entity other than Borrower, Agent shall appoint an appropriately qualified Person to possess, own, operate or manage such Collateral. 14.13. Certain ERISA Matters. (a) Each Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, Agent and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of Borrower or any other Loan Party, that at least one of the following is and will be true: (i) such Lender is not using “plan assets” (within the meaning of Section 3(42) of ERISA or otherwise) of one or more Benefit Plans with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Advances, the Commitments or this Agreement, (ii) the transaction exemption set forth in one or more PTEs, such as PTE 84-14 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by independent qualified professional asset managers), PTE 95-60 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company general accounts), PTE 90-1 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company pooled separate accounts), PTE 91-38 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving bank collective investment funds) or PTE 96-23 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by in-house asset managers), is applicable with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Advances, the Commitments and this Agreement, (iii) (A) such Lender is an investment fund managed by a “Qualified Professional Asset Manager” (within the meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14), (B) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the investment decision on behalf of such Lender to enter into, participate in, administer and perform the Advances, the Commitments and this Agreement, (C) the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Advances, the Commitments and this Agreement satisfies the requirements of sub-sections (b) through (g) of Part I of PTE 84-14 and (D) to the best knowledge of such Lender, the requirements of subsection (a) of Part I of PTE 84-14 are satisfied with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Advances, the Commitments and this Agreement, or (iv) such other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between Agent, in its sole discretion, and such Lender. (b) In addition, unless either (1) sub-clause (i) in the immediately preceding clause (a) is true with respect to a Lender or (2) a Lender has provided another representation, warranty and 106

covenant in accordance with sub-clause (iv) in the immediately preceding clause (a), such Lender further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, Agent and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of Borrower or any other Loan Party, that Agent is not a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender involved in such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Advances, the Commitments and this Agreement (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by Agent under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any documents related hereto or thereto). 14.14. Rates. The interest rate on an Advance denominated in Dollars may be derived from an interest rate benchmark that may be discontinued or is, or may in the future become, the subject of regulatory reform. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, Section 3.8 provides a mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest. The Agent does not warrant or accept responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to (a) the Benchmark, or any component definition thereof or rates referred to in the definition thereof, or any alternative, successor or replacement rate thereto (including any Benchmark Replacement), including whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, or have the same volume or liquidity as, the Benchmark or any other Benchmark prior to its discontinuance or unavailability, or (b) the effect, implementation or composition of any Conforming Changes. Agent and its affiliates or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of the Benchmark, any alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) or any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Borrower. Agent may select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain the Benchmark or any other Benchmark including any component thereof, or rates referenced in the definition thereof, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to the Borrower, any Lender or any other person 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. 14.15. Erroneous Payments. (a) If Agent (x) notifies a Lender, Issuer or secured party, or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender, Issuer or secured party (any such Lender, Issuer, secured party or other recipient (and each of their respective successors and permitted assigns), a “Payment Recipient”) that Agent has determined in its sole discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under immediately succeeding clause (b)) that any funds (as set forth in such notice from Agent) received by such Payment Recipient from Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously or mistakenly transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Lender, Issuer, secured party or other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such funds, whether transmitted or received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”) and (y) demands in writing the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of Agent pending its return or repayment as contemplated below in this Section 14.15 and held in trust for the benefit of Agent, and such Lender, Issuer or secured party shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment Recipient to) 107

promptly, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days thereafter (or such later date as Agent may, in its sole discretion, specify in writing), return to 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 (except to the extent waived in writing by Agent) in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to Agent in same day funds at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of Agent to any Payment Recipient under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. (b) Without limiting immediately preceding clause (a), each Lender, Issuer, secured party or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender, Issuer or secured party (and each of their respective successors and permitted assigns), agrees that if it receives a payment, prepayment or repayment (whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise) from Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in this Agreement or in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by Agent (or any of its Affiliates), or (z) that such Lender, Issuer or secured party, or other such recipient, otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part), then in each such case: (i) it acknowledges and agrees that (A) in the case of immediately preceding clauses (x) or (y), an error and mistake shall be presumed to have been made (absent written confirmation from Agent to the contrary) or (B) an error and mistake has been made (in the case of immediately preceding clause (z)), in each case, with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment; and (ii) such Lender, Issuer or secured party shall (and shall cause any other recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf to) promptly (and, in all events, within two (2) Business Days of its knowledge of the occurrence of any of the circumstances described in immediately preceding clauses (x), (y) and (z)) notify Agent of its receipt of such payment, prepayment or repayment, the details thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying Agent pursuant to this Section 14.15(b). (c) Each Lender, Issuer or secured party hereby authorizes Agent to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender, Issuer or secured party under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by Agent to such Lender, Issuer or secured party under any Loan Document with respect to any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts, against any amount that Agent has demanded to be returned under immediately preceding clause (a). For the avoidance of doubt, the failure to deliver a notice to Agent pursuant to this Section 14.15(b) shall not have any effect on a Payment Recipient’s obligations pursuant to Section 14.15(a) or on whether or not an Erroneous Payment has been made. (d) (i)(i) In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by Agent for any reason, after demand therefor in accordance with immediately preceding clause (a), from any Lender that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) (and/or from any Payment Recipient who received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) on its respective behalf) (such unrecovered amount, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”), upon Agent’s notice to such Lender at any time, then effective immediately (with the consideration therefor being acknowledged by 108

the parties hereto), (A) such Lender shall be deemed to have assigned its Advances (but not its Commitments) with respect to which such Erroneous Payment was made (the “Erroneous Payment Impacted Class”) in an amount equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as Agent may specify) (such assignment of the Advances (but not Commitments) of the Erroneous Payment Impacted Class, the “Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment”) (on a cashless basis and such amount calculated at par plus any accrued and unpaid interest (with the assignment fee to be waived by Agent in such instance)), and is hereby (together with Borrower) deemed to execute and deliver a Commitment Transfer Supplement (or, to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating a Commitment Transfer Supplement by reference pursuant to an applicable electronic platform as to which Agent and such parties are participants) with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and such Lender shall deliver any Notes evidencing such Advances to Borrower or Agent (but the failure of such Person to deliver any such Notes shall not affect the effectiveness of the foregoing assignment), (B) Agent as the assignee Lender shall be deemed to have acquired the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, (C) upon such deemed acquisition, Agent as the assignee Lender shall become a Lender, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and the assigning Lender shall cease to be a Lender, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, its obligations under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement and its applicable Commitments which shall survive as to such assigning Lender, (D) Agent and Borrower shall each be deemed to have waived any consents required under this Agreement to any such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and (E) Agent will reflect in the Register its ownership interest in the Advances subject to the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment. For the avoidance of doubt, no Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment will reduce the Commitments of any Lender and such Commitments shall remain available in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. (ii) Subject to Section 15.3 (but excluding, in all events, any assignment consent or approval requirements (whether from Borrower or otherwise)), Agent may, in its discretion, sell any Advances acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and upon receipt of the proceeds of such sale, the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Lender shall be reduced by the net proceeds of the sale of such Advance (or portion thereof), and Agent shall retain all other rights, remedies and claims against such Lender (and/or against any recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf). In addition, an Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Lender (x) shall be reduced by the proceeds of prepayments or repayments of principal and interest, or other distribution in respect of principal and interest, received by Agent on or with respect to any such Advances acquired from such Lender pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment (to the extent that any such Advances are then owned by Agent) and (y) may, in the sole discretion of Agent, be reduced by any amount specified by Agent in writing to the applicable Lender from time to time. (e) The parties hereto agree that (x) irrespective of whether Agent may be equitably subrogated, in the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Payment Recipient that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights and interests of such Payment Recipient (and, in the case of any Payment Recipient who has received funds on behalf of a Lender, Issuer or secured party, to the rights and interests of such Lender, Issuer or secured party, as the case may be) under the Loan Documents with respect to such amount (the “Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights”) (provided that the Loan Parties’ Obligations under the Loan Documents in respect of the Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights shall not be duplicative of such Obligations in respect of Advances that have been assigned to Agent under an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment) and (y) an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by Borrower or any other Loan Party; provided that this Section 14.15 shall not be interpreted to increase (or accelerate the due date for), or have the effect 109

of increasing (or accelerating the due date for), the Obligations of Borrower relative to the amount (and/or timing for payment) of the Obligations that would have been payable had such Erroneous Payment not been made by Agent; provided, further, that for the avoidance of doubt, immediately preceding clauses (x) and (y) shall not apply to the extent any such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by Agent from Borrower for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment. (f) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payment received, including, without limitation, or waiver of, any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine. (g) Each party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 14.15 shall survive the resignation or replacement of Agent, any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender or Issuer, the termination of the Commitments and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any other Loan Document. 14.16. Joint Lead Arrangers and Joint Bookrunners. Each of the Joint Lead Arrangers and Joint Bookrunners, in such capacities, shall not have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility, or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to it in its capacity as a Lender, as Agent, as Swingline Lender, or as Issuer. Without limiting the foregoing, each of the Joint Lead Arrangers and Joint Bookrunners, in such capacities, shall not have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender or any Loan Party. Each Lender, Agent, Swingline Lender, Issuer, and each Loan Party acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on the Joint Lead Arrangers, Joint Bookrunners, in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder. Each of the Joint Lead Arrangers and Joint Bookrunners, in such capacities, shall be entitled to resign at any time by giving notice to Agent and Borrower. XV. MISCELLANEOUS. 15.1. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applied to contracts to be performed wholly within the State of New York, without regard to conflicts of law principals except Title 14 of Article 5 of the New York General Obligations law. Any judicial proceeding brought by or against any Loan Party with respect to any of the Obligations, this Agreement or any related agreement may be brought in any court of competent jurisdiction in the County of New York, State of New York, United States of America, and, by execution and delivery of this Agreement, each Loan Party accepts for itself and in connection with its properties, generally and unconditionally, the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts, and irrevocably agrees to be bound by any judgment rendered thereby in connection with this Agreement. Each Loan Party hereby waives right to personal service of any and all process upon it and consents that all such service of process may be made by registered mail (return receipt requested) directed to such Loan Party at its address set forth in Section 15.6 and service so made shall be deemed completed five (5) days after the same shall have been so deposited in the mails of the United States of America. Nothing herein shall affect the right to serve process in any manner permitted by law or shall limit the right of Agent or any Lender to bring proceedings against any Loan Party in the courts of any other jurisdiction. Each Loan Party waives any objection to jurisdiction and venue of any action instituted hereunder and shall not assert any defense based on lack of jurisdiction or venue or based upon forum non conveniens. Any judicial proceeding by any Loan Party against Agent or any Lender involving, directly or indirectly, any 110

matter or claim in any way arising out of, related to or connected with this Agreement or any related agreement, shall be brought only in a federal or state court located in the County of New York, State of New York. 15.2. Entire Understanding; Amendments. (a) This Agreement and the documents executed concurrently herewith contain the entire understanding between the Loan Parties, Agent and each Lender and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, if any, relating to the subject matter hereof. Any promises, representations, warranties or guarantees not herein contained and hereinafter made shall have no force and effect unless in writing, signed by each Loan Party’s, Agent’s and each Lender’s respective officers. Neither this Agreement nor any portion or provisions hereof may be changed, modified, amended, waived, supplemented, discharged, cancelled or terminated orally or by any course of dealing, or in any manner other than by an agreement in writing, signed by the party to be charged. Each Loan Party acknowledges that it has been advised by counsel in connection with the execution of this Agreement and Loan Documents and is not relying upon oral representations or statements inconsistent with the terms and provisions of this Agreement. (b) The Required Lenders, Agent with the consent in writing of the Required Lenders, and the Loan Parties may, subject to the provisions of this Section 15.2(b), from time to time enter into written supplemental agreements to this Agreement or the Loan Documents executed by the Loan Parties, for the purpose of adding or deleting any provisions or otherwise changing, varying or waiving in any manner the rights of Lenders, Agent or any Loan Party thereunder or the conditions, provisions or terms thereof or waiving any Event of Default thereunder, but only to the extent specified in such written agreements; provided, however, that no such supplemental agreement shall: (A) without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby: (i) increase the Commitment Percentage or the Commitment of any Lender; (ii) increase the Maximum Revolving Advance Amount (except, for the avoidance of doubt, for any increase to the Maximum Revolving Advance Amount resulting from, and in accordance with, the provisions of Section 2.4); (iii) extend the maturity of any Note or the due date for any amount payable hereunder, or decrease the rate of interest or reduce any scheduled principal payment, fee or any other amount payable by any Loan Party to Lenders pursuant to this Agreement (it being understood that a waiver of any Default, Event of Default or mandatory prepayment shall not constitute a reduction of the rate of interest or reduction of any principal payment, fee or other amount payable by any Loan Party); (iv) alter the definition of the term Required Lenders or alter, amend or modify or waive any provision of this Section 15.2(b), including, without limitation, eliminating or reducing the voting rights of the Lenders under this Section 15.2(b); (v) other than in connection with a merger, liquidation, dissolution or sale of such Person expressly permitted by the terms hereof or the other Loan Documents, release any Borrower from any obligation for the payment of money or 111

consent to the assignment or transfer by any Borrower or any Guarantor of any of its rights or duties under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; (vi) release all or substantially all of the Collateral or release all or substantially all of the Guarantors from their obligations under the applicable Guaranty executed by such Guarantor; (vii) amend, modify or waive the pro rata requirements of Section 2.13 or Section 11.2 or any other provision of the Loan Documents requiring pro rata treatment of the Lenders; or (viii) [reserved]; or (B) without the consent of Agent, alter, amend, modify or waive the rights or duties of Agent; (C) without the consent of the Issuer, alter, amend, modify or waive the rights or duties of such Issuer; and (D) without the consent of Swingline Lender, alter, amend, modify or waive the rights or duties of the Swingline Lender or increase the Maximum Swingline Loan Amount. Any such supplemental agreement shall apply equally to each Lender and shall be binding upon each Loan Party, Lenders and Agent and all future holders of the Obligations. In the case of any waiver, the Loan Parties, Agent and Lenders shall be restored to their former positions and rights, and any Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing, but no waiver of a specific Event of Default shall extend to any subsequent Event of Default (whether or not the subsequent Event of Default is the same as the Event of Default which was waived), or impair any right consequent thereon. (c) In the event a Lender is a Non-Consenting Lender, then Borrower may, at its option, require such Lender to assign its Commitment Percentage of the Advances to HSBC (with HSBC’s consent) or to another Lender (with such Lender’s consent) or to any other Person that shall assume such obligations (the “Designated Lender”), for a price equal to the then outstanding principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest and fees and all other Obligations due such Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, which interest and fees shall be paid in full at the time of such assignment. In the event Borrower elects to require any Lender to assign its interest to HSBC or to the Designated Lender, Borrower will so notify such Lender in writing within forty five (45) days following such Lender’s denial, and such Lender will assign its interest to HSBC or the Designated Lender no later than five (5) days following receipt of such notice pursuant to a Commitment Transfer Supplement executed by such Lender, HSBC or the Designated Lender, as appropriate, and Agent. 15.3. Successors and Assigns; Participations; New Lenders. (a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each Loan Party, Agent, each Lender, all future holders of the Obligations and their respective successors and permitted assigns, except that no Loan Party may assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Agent and each Lender. (b) Each Loan Party acknowledges that in the regular course of commercial banking business one or more Lenders may at any time and from time to time sell participating interests in the Advances to Participants (other than Disqualified Institutions). Each Participant may exercise all rights 112

of payment (including without limitation rights of set-off) with respect to the portion of such Advances held by it or other Obligations payable hereunder as fully as if such Participant were a Lender and the direct holder of such Advance provided that Borrower shall not be required to pay to any Participant more than the amount which it would have been required to pay to Lender which granted an interest in its Advances or other Obligations payable hereunder to such Participant had such Lender retained such interest in the Advances hereunder or other Obligations payable hereunder and in no event shall Borrower be required to pay any such amount arising from the same circumstances and with respect to the same Advances or other Obligations payable hereunder to both such Lender and such Participant. For the avoidance of doubt, each Participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.10 unless such Participant complies with Section 3.10(g) as if it were a Lender. Each Loan Party hereby grant to any Participant a continuing security interest in any deposits, moneys or other property actually or constructively held by such Participant as security for the Participant’s interest in the Advances. Each Lender shall retain the sole right to approve, without the consent of the Participant, any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents other than any amendment, modification or waiver of the type specified in clause (i), (iv) or (vi) of Section 15.2(b) as it relates to Participant’s interest in the Obligations. Each Lender that sells participations to a Participant, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrower, shall maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amount of and interest owing with respect to the participation sold to each such Participant (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (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) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c)of the U.S. Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive (absent manifest error), and Borrower and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in such Participant Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a participant for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Agent (in its capacity as such) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. (c) Any Lender may, with the consent of Agent and Borrower, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, sell, assign or transfer all or any part of its rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to another Lender or to one or more additional banks or financial institutions (other than Disqualified Institutions) and one or more additional banks or financial institutions may commit to make Advances hereunder (each a “Purchasing Lender”), in minimum amounts of not less than $5,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, pursuant to a Commitment Transfer Supplement, executed by a Purchasing Lender, the transferor Lender, and Agent and delivered to Agent for recording; provided that no assignment shall be made to (i) a Loan Party or any of a Loan Party’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries or (ii) any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (ii) (provided that Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall have objected thereto by written notice to the Agent within 10 Business Days after having received notice thereof). The consent of Agent and Borrower shall not be required in the case of an assignment by a Lender to another Lender or to an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund (each, an “Eligible Assignee”), and the consent of Borrower shall not be required at any time that an Event of Default under Sections 10.1, 10.7, or 10.8 has occurred and is continuing hereunder. Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the transfer effective date determined pursuant to such Commitment Transfer Supplement, (i) Purchasing Lender thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Commitment Transfer Supplement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender thereunder with a Commitment Percentage as set forth therein (including, for the avoidance of doubt, such obligations under Section 3.10(g)), and (ii) the transferor Lender thereunder 113

shall, to the extent provided in such Commitment Transfer Supplement, be released from its obligations under this Agreement, the Commitment Transfer Supplement creating a novation for that purpose. Such Commitment Transfer Supplement shall be deemed to amend this Agreement to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of such Purchasing Lender and the resulting adjustment of the Commitment Percentages arising from the purchase by such Purchasing Lender of all or a portion of the rights and obligations of such transferor Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Loan Party hereby consents to the addition of such Purchasing Lender and the resulting adjustment of the Commitment Percentages arising from the purchase by such Purchasing Lender of all or a portion of the rights and obligations of such transferor Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Loan Party shall execute and deliver such further documents and do such further acts and things in order to effectuate the foregoing. (d) Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrower, shall maintain at its address an electronic or written record (the “Register”) in which it will record (i) the names and addresses of the Lenders (including Purchasing Lenders) and (ii) the amount of each Advance and amounts owing to each Lender from time to time and (iii) all amounts received by Agent hereunder from Borrower and each Lender’s share thereof. Agent will also maintain at its address a copy of each Commitment Transfer Supplement delivered to it, and no Commitment Transfer Supplement will be effective until it is recorded in the Register. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and Borrower, Agent and Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of the Advance recorded therein for the purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Agent shall receive a fee in the amount of $3,500 (which may be waived or reduced at the sole discretion of the Agent) payable by the applicable Purchasing Lender upon the effective date of each transfer or assignment to such Purchasing Lender except in connection with any assignments by a Lender to an Affiliate of such Lender or to another Lender. If either the assigning Lender or the Purchasing Lender shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to this Agreement, Agent shall have no obligation to accept such assignment and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest thereon. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. (e) Each Loan Party authorizes each Lender to disclose to any Participant or Purchasing Lender and any prospective Participant or Purchasing Lender any and all financial information in such Lender’s possession concerning such Loan Party which has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of such Loan Party pursuant to this Agreement or in connection with such Lender’s credit evaluation of such Loan Party so long as such Participant, Purchasing Lender or prospective Participant or Purchasing Lender agrees to abide by the provisions of Section 15.15. (f) Any other provision in this Agreement notwithstanding, any Lender may at any time create a security interest in, or pledge, all or any portion of its rights under and interest in this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Federal Reserve Bank or U.S. Treasury Regulation 31 CFR §203.24, and such Federal Reserve Bank may enforce such pledge or security interest in any manner permitted under applicable law; provided, that no such pledge shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 15.4. Application of Payments. Agent shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply or reverse and re-apply any payment and any and all proceeds of Collateral to any portion of the Obligations. To the extent that any Loan 114

Indemnity; Funding Losses. (a) Each Loan Party shall indemnify Agent, the Issuer, each Lender and each of their respective officers, directors, Affiliates, advisors, employees, partners, trustees, administrators, managers, counsel, representatives, advisors and agents (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) from and against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all liabilities, obligations, claims, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against Agent, such Issuer or any Lender by any Person (including Borrower or any Guarantor) in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents contemplated thereby, (ii) the performance by an Indemnitee of its respective obligations under this Agreement and other Loan Documents; (iii) consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby; (iv) environmental claims and liabilities; or (v) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by Borrower or any Guarantor, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, subject to the condition that claims or losses on which indemnification is sought by Indemnitee not arise by such Indemnitee’s own willful misconduct, bad faith, or gross negligence as determined by final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. (b) In the event that (i) any payment of a SOFR Loan is required, made or permitted on a date other than the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto (including upon demand by a Lender), (ii) the conversion of any SOFR Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, or (iii) the failure to convert, continue, borrow or prepay any SOFR Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for any loss, cost and expense attributable to such event, including any loss, cost or expense arising from the liquidation or redeployment of funds. A certificate of a Lender delivered to the Borrower and setting forth any amount or amounts that any Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this paragraph shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay any Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate upon demand. (c) In connection with the issuance of any Letter of Credit, each Loan Party shall indemnify, save and hold Agent, each Lender and the Issuer harmless from any loss, cost, expense or liability, including, without limitation, any claims, damages, costs and expenses, and other payments made by Agent, any Lender or the Issuer and expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees (limited to one outside counsel for the Agent, Issuer and Lenders and, if reasonably necessary, a single local counsel in each jurisdiction for which local counsel is reasonably deemed necessary) incurred by Agent, any Lender or the Issuer arising out of, or in connection with, any Letter of Credit to be issued or created for Borrower. 115

Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. 15.16.

In addition, each Loan Party upon prior notice authorizes Agent to include such Loan Party’s name and logo in select transaction profiles and client testimonials prepared by Agent for use in publications, company brochures and other marketing materials of Agent. 119

15.17. Electronic Execution of Assignments and Certain Loan Documents.

HSBC, as administrative agent or collateral agent on a syndicated facility, will post on the applicable electronic platform (or otherwise distribute to each lender in the syndicate) documents that it receives in connection with the Flood Laws. However, HSBC reminds each Lender, Participant and Purchasing Lender in connection with the facility that, pursuant to the Flood Laws, each federally regulated Lender (whether acting as a Lender or Purchasing Lender in the facility) is responsible for assuring its own compliance with the flood insurance requirements. 15.19. Patriot Act Notice. Each Lender and Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies each Loan Party that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record, and Borrower shall provide, information that identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the names and addresses of each Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender or Agent, as applicable, to identify each Loan Party in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act and other applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations under Applicable Law. 15.20. Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that any of this Agreement or the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Hedging Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties 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 this Agreement, 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 120

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 this Agreement and the other 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 this Agreement and the other Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support. 15.21. 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: (a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and (b) the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable: (i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability; (ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or (iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority. 15.22. Currency Conversion. If any payment by Borrower or the proceeds of any Collateral shall be made in a currency other than Dollars, such amount shall be converted into Dollars at the rate determined by Agent or Issuer, as applicable, as the rate quoted by it in accordance with methods customarily used by such Person for such or similar purposes as the spot rate for the purchase by such Person of Dollars with the currency of actual payment through its principal foreign exchange trading office (including, in the case of Agent, any Affiliate), provided that Agent or Issuer, as applicable, may obtain such spot rate from another financial institution actively engaged in foreign currency exchange if Agent or Issuer, as applicable, does not then have a spot rate for Dollars. 121

15.23. Lender Representations. Each Lender and Issuer represents that it is engaged in making, acquiring or holding commercial loans in the ordinary course of its business and that it has, independently and without reliance upon Agent or any sub-agents, or any of their officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates thereof (collectively the “Agent Parties”), and based on such documents and information (which may contain material, non-public information within the meaning of the United States securities laws concerning Borrower and its Affiliates) as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and Issuer also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.
