In order to establish any Extended Term Loans, the Borrower shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders of the applicable Existing Term Loan Class which such request shall be offered equally to all such Lenders) (a “Term Loan Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Term Loans to be established, which shall either, at the option of the Borrower, (A) reflect market terms and conditions (taken as a whole) at the time of incurrence or issuance (as determined in good faith by the Borrower) or (B) if not consistent with the terms of the applicable Existing Term Loan Class, shall not be materially more restrictive to the Credit Parties (as determined in good faith by the Borrower), when taken as a whole, than the terms of the Term Loans of the Existing Term Loan Class unless (x) the Lenders of the Term Loans of such applicable Existing Term Loan Class receive the benefit of such more restrictive terms or (y) any such provisions apply after the Latest Maturity Date as determined at the time of incurrence or issuance; provided, however, that (1) the scheduled final maturity date shall be extended and all or any of the scheduled amortization payments of principal of the Extended Term Loans may be delayed to later dates than the scheduled amortization of principal of the Term Loans of such Existing Term Loan Class (with any such delay resulting in a corresponding adjustment to the scheduled amortization payments reflected in Section 2.5 or in the Extension Amendment, as the case may be, with respect to the Existing Term Loan Class from which such Extended Term Loans were converted, in each case as more particularly set forth in Section 2.15(a)(iii)), (2)(A) pricing, fees, optional prepayment or redemption terms shall be determined in good faith by the Borrower and the interest rates, interest margins, upfront fees, funding discounts, original issue discounts and premiums (including through fixed rate interest) with respect to the Extended Term Loans may be higher or lower than the interest margins and floors for the Term Loans of such Existing Term Loan Class and/or (B) additional fees, premiums or AHYDO Catch-Up Payments may be payable to the Lenders providing such Extended Term Loans in addition to or in lieu of any of the items contemplated by the preceding clause (A), in each case, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment, (3) the Extended Term Loans may participate on a pro rata basis, greater than pro rata basis or less than pro rata basis in any voluntary prepayment of any Class of Term Loans hereunder and may participate on a pro rata basis or less than pro rata basis (but not on a greater than pro rata basis) in any mandatory prepayments of any Class of Term Loans hereunder; provided that if such Extended Term Loans are unsecured or rank junior in right of payment or as to security with the Obligations, such Extended Term Loans shall participate on a junior basis with respect to mandatory repayments of Term Loans hereunder (except in connection with any refinancing, extension, renewal, replacement, repurchase or retirement thereof permitted by this Agreement) and (4) Extended Term Loans may have call protection and prepayment premiums and, subject to clause (3) above, other redemption terms as may be agreed by the Borrower and the Lenders thereof, provided that the principal amount of the Extended Term Loans shall not exceed the principal amount of the Term Loans being extended except as otherwise permitted herein.

In addition to any terms and changes required or permitted by Section 2.15(a), each Extension Amendment shall amend the scheduled amortization payments pursuant to Section 2.5 or the applicable Extension Amendment with respect to the Existing Term Loan Class from which the Extended Term Loans were converted to reduce each scheduled Repayment Amount for the Existing Term Loan Class in the same proportion as the amount of Term Loans of the Existing Term Loan Class is to be converted pursuant to such Extension Amendment (it being understood that the amount of any Repayment Amount payable with respect to any individual Term Loan of such Existing Term Loan Class that is not an Extended Term Loan shall not be reduced as a result thereof).

(iv) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, on any date on which any Existing Term Loan Class is converted to extend the related scheduled maturity date(s) in accordance with paragraph (a) above, in the case of the existing Term Loans of each Extending Lender, the aggregate principal amount of such existing Term Loans shall be deemed reduced by an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of Extended Term Loans so converted by such Lender on such date. Any Extended Term Loans shall constitute a separate Class of Term Loans from the Existing Term Loan Class from which they were converted; provided that any Extended Term Loans converted from an Existing Term Loan Class may, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment, be designated as an increase in any then outstanding Class of Term Loans other than the Existing Term Loan Class from which such Extended Term Loans were converted (in which case scheduled amortization with respect thereto shall be proportionally increased). (v) The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby consent to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.15(a) (including, for the avoidance of doubt, payment of any interest, fees, or premium in respect of any Extended Term Loans on such terms as may be set forth in the relevant Extension Amendment) and hereby waive the requirements of any provision of this Agreement (including, without limitation, any pro rata payment or amendment section) or any other Credit Document that may otherwise prohibit or restrict any such extension or any other transaction contemplated by this Section 2.15(a). (vi) In the event that the Administrative Agent determines, and the Borrower agrees (acting reasonably), that the allocation of Extended Term Loans of a given Extension Series to a given Lender was incorrectly determined as a result of manifest administrative error in the receipt and processing of an Extension Election timely submitted by such Lender in accordance with the procedures set forth in the applicable Extension Amendment, then the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and such affected Lender may (and hereby are authorized to), in their sole discretion and without the consent of any other Lender, enter into an amendment to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents (each, a “Corrective Extension Amendment”) within 15 days following the effective date of such Extension Amendment, as the case may be, which Corrective Extension Amendment shall (A) provide for the conversion and extension of the applicable Term Loans in such amount as is required to cause such Lender to hold Extended Term Loans of the applicable Extension Series into which such other Term Loans were initially converted, as the case may be, in the amount such Lender would have held had such administrative error not occurred and had such Lender received the minimum allocation of the applicable Term Loans or Commitments to which it was entitled under the terms of such Extension Amendment, in the absence of such error, (B) be subject to the satisfaction of such conditions as the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and such Lender may agree (including conditions of the type required to be satisfied for the effectiveness of an Extension Amendment described in Section 2.15(a)), and (C) effect such other amendments of the type (with appropriate reference and nomenclature changes) described in Section 2.15(a) to the extent reasonably necessary to effectuate the purposes of this Section 2.15(a)(vi).
