be construed as referring to such agreement, instrument or other document as from time to time amended, supplemented or otherwise modified (subject to any restrictions on such amendments, supplements or modifications set forth herein), (b) any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person’s successors and assigns, (c) the words “herein,” “hereof” and “hereunder,” and words of similar import, shall be construed to refer to this Agreement in its entirety and not to any particular provision hereof, (d) all references herein to Articles, Sections, Exhibits and Schedules shall be construed to refer to Articles and Sections of, and Exhibits and Schedules to, this Agreement, (e) any reference to any law or regulation herein shall, unless otherwise specified, refer to such law or regulation as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, and (f) the words “asset” and “property” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect and to refer to any and all tangible and intangible assets and properties, including cash, securities, accounts and contract rights.

SECTION 1.03 Accounting Terms; Changes in GAAP.

(a) Accounting Terms. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all accounting terms not otherwise defined herein shall be construed in conformity with GAAP as in effect on the Closing Date. Financial statements and other information required to be delivered by the Borrower to the Lenders pursuant to Sections 5.01(a) and 5.01(b) shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP as in effect at the time of such preparation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of determining compliance with any covenant (including the computation of any financial covenant) contained herein, Indebtedness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries shall be deemed to be carried at 100% of the outstanding principal amount thereof, and the effects of FASB ASC 825 on financial liabilities shall be disregarded. Notwithstanding any changes in GAAP after the Closing Date, any lease of the Obligors that would be characterized as an operating lease under GAAP as in effect on the Closing Date (whether such lease is entered into before or after the Closing Date) shall not constitute Indebtedness or a capital lease (and shall continue to be characterized as an operating lease) under this Agreement or any other Loan Document as a result of such changes in GAAP.

(b) Changes in GAAP. If the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent that the Borrower requests an amendment to any provision hereof to eliminate the effect of any change occurring after the Closing Date in GAAP or in the application thereof on the operation of such provision (or if the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that the Required Lenders request an amendment to any provision hereof for such purpose), regardless of whether any such notice is given before or after such change in GAAP or in the application thereof, then such provision shall be interpreted on the basis of GAAP as in effect and applied immediately before such change shall have become effective until such notice shall have been withdrawn or such provision amended in accordance herewith.

SECTION 1.04 Rates. The Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission or any other matter related to the rates in the definition of “LIBO Rate” or with respect to any comparable or successor rate thereto.

SECTION 1.05 Restricted Lenders.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in relation to each Lender that is incorporated in Germany and any other Lender that notifies “the Administrative Agent that this clause applies to it (each a “Restricted Lender”), Sections 3.22, 5.24(d), 6.13 and any other sanctions provision in this Agreement (together the “Sanctions Provisions”) will not apply for the benefit of that Restricted Lender to the extent that the Sanctions Provisions would result in any violation of or liability under EU Regulation (EC) 2271/96 (in conjunction with (EU) 2018/1100) or section 7 of the German Außenwirtschaftsverordnung (foreign trade rules) or a similar anti-boycott statute in any other jurisdiction.

(b) Solely in the event of, or on the basis of, any breach of any Sanctions Provisions as result solely of Sanctions imposed by any Sanctions Authority (other than the United Nations, the European Union or Germany) and for which such Sanctions Provisions do not apply in this case for the benefit of a Restricted Lender in accordance with Section 1.05(a) (a “Sanctions Breach”), the parties hereto agree that such Restricted Lender will not be entitled to:

(i) declare that its Commitment is cancelled or require a mandatory prepayment of its part of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.06(b) (Illegality) of this Agreement; or

(ii) assert any other rights under the Loan Documents on the sole basis of such Sanctions Breach.

(c) With respect to any proposal to enforce, or to instruct the Administrative Agent to enforce, a Sanctions Breach, a Restricted Lender may abstain or vote against any proposal to take action in relation to a Sanctions Breach, but will not vote in favour of any such proposal.

(d) Nothing in this Section 1.05 will affect the rights of a Restricted Lender under any other provision of the Loan Documents or its right to benefit as a Lender from any action taken by the Administrative Agent or the other Lenders in relation to the Loan Documents (whether in relation to any of the Sanctions Provisions or otherwise).

ARTICLE II

COMMITMENTS

SECTION 2.01 Term Loan Commitments.

(a) Term Loan. Each Term Lender severally, and not jointly with the other Term Lenders, agrees, upon the terms and subject to the conditions herein set forth, to make term loans denominated in US Dollars (the “Term Loan”) available to Borrower during the Term Loan Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount up to but not exceeding such Term Lender’s Term Loan Commitment. The amount of each Borrowing under the Term Loan shall be less than or equal to the Advance Rate therefor. Amounts repaid or prepaid with respect to the Term Loan may not be re-borrowed. Unless previously terminated, the Term Loan Commitment of each Term Lender shall automatically terminate at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Term Loan Availability Termination Date.

(b) Procedure for Term Loan Borrowing. Borrower may make up to 6 Borrowings under the Term Loan during the Term Loan Availability Period, provided that Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent a revocable Borrowing Request (which must be received by the Administrative Agent prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time three Business Days prior to the requested Borrowing Date), specifying (i) the amount to be borrowed, (ii) the applicable Collateral Vessel(s) and (iii) the requested Borrowing Date. Each borrowing of the Term Loan shall be in an amount equal to at least US$10,000,000. Upon receipt of any such Borrowing Request from Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof. Each Term Lender will make the amount of its pro rata share of the Term Loan advance available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Borrower prior to 12:00 Noon, New York time, on the Borrowing Date requested by Borrower in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent. Such borrowing will then be made available to the Borrower by

the Administrative Agent crediting the Collection Account or, at the Borrower’s option, by effecting a wire transfer of such amounts to an account designated by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent. If the Borrower revokes any Borrowing Request, the Borrower shall compensate the Lenders in connection with such revocation in accordance with Section 2.13.

(i) The Borrower shall be permitted to request in any Borrowing Request that the relevant Borrowing be credited to an escrow account (the “Escrow Account”) held by Citibank, N.A. as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”) under an escrow agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders (the “Escrow Agreement”). In such circumstances, the requirement to satisfy the conditions set out in Section 4.02 shall be deferred and such conditions (together with any conditions to the release of the Borrowing from the Escrow Account under the Escrow Agreement) shall instead be required to be satisfied prior to, or simultaneously with, the release of the relevant Borrowing from the Escrow Account. Prior to the release of the relevant Borrowing from the Escrow Account, the Borrower shall have no right or interest in respect of such funds.

(ii) If the relevant Borrowing (or part thereof) is returned to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of the Escrow Agreement, such funds shall be returned by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders and the relevant Borrowing shall (to the extent of the funds so returned to the Lenders) be deemed not to have occurred, provided that the Borrower shall be required to pay interest on the relevant funds on and from the date of payment to the Escrow Account up to but excluding the date on which the funds are returned. Such interest shall be payable on the date the relevant funds are returned and shall be calculated at the rate that would otherwise have applied if such amount constituted a Borrowing for such period.

(iii) If the Administrative Agent is satisfied that the conditions set out in Section 4.02 in relation to any Borrowing which has been credited to an Escrow Account have been satisfied or will upon release of such Borrowing from the Escrow Account be satisfied, the Administrative Agent shall execute a release instruction in respect thereof and the Borrowing Date in relation to the funds so released shall be deemed for all purposes under this Agreement, save for the purposes of the calculation of interest which shall accrue from the date the relevant funds are paid to the Escrow Account, to be the date of such release.

(iv) The Borrower shall indemnify, on written demand, the Finance Parties for (A) in the case of any funds returned to the Administrative Agent pursuant to any Escrow Agreement, amounts set out in Section 2.13 as if such return constituted a prepayment and (B) any other costs, losses and expenses, as the case may be, incurred by the Finance Parties in connection with the arrangements set forth in this Section 2.01(c). For the avoidance of any doubt, the Finance Parties shall not be liable for any costs, expenses or other amounts payable to the Escrow Agent under or pursuant to the Escrow Agreement.

SECTION 2.02 [Reserved].

SECTION 2.03 Repayment Schedules.

(a) Promptly following the issuance of the first Borrowing Request in respect of the Term Loan, the Administrative Agent will, in consultation with the Borrower and the Term Lenders, prepare a repayment schedule in respect of the Term Loan, and promptly following the issuance of each subsequent Borrowing Request in respect of the Term Loan, the Administrative Agent will, in consultation with the Borrower and the Term Lenders, revise the repayment schedule in respect of the Term Loan to take into account the additional advance being made under such Borrowing Request (the “Repayment Schedule”). The Repayment Schedule will be prepared on the basis that:

(i) the Borrower will repay the Term Loan in instalments on each Payment Date (the “Term Loan Required Payments”);

(ii) the Term Loan will amortize, commencing on the first Borrowing Date in respect of the Term Loan until the Maturity Date, at a rate of 8% per annum, which rate shall be calculated on the basis of the aggregate amount of the Term Loan which has been advanced (excluding any amortization payments which have previously been made) as at the applicable Payment Date; and

(iii) such annual repayments shall be split pro rata over each of the applicable Payment Dates.

(b) The Administrative Agent, the Term Lenders and the Borrower will agree such Repayment Schedule prior to the relevant Borrowing Date.

(c) If any optional partial prepayment of the Term Loan is made pursuant to Section 2.05(a), or any amount of the Term Loan is prepaid as a result of a Cash Sweep Event, such amounts shall reduce the Term Loan Required Payments pro rata (or, if the Borrower makes an election in accordance with Section 2.05(b)(ii), the next in time amortization payment(s) only) and the Administrative Agent will, in consultation with the Borrower and the Term Lenders, revise the repayment schedule to take into account the relevant partial prepayment and its required manner of application pursuant hereto. The Administrative Agent, the Term Lenders and the Borrower will agree such Repayment Schedule. The revised repayment schedule shall thereafter be the “Repayment Schedule” for the purposes of this Agreement

SECTION 2.04 Repayment of the Loans

(a) Term Loan. The Borrower shall repay the Term Loan as follows:

(i) on each Payment Date, the Term Loan Required Payments in accordance with the Repayment Schedule; and

(ii) on the Maturity Date, the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan.

(b) [Reserved].

SECTION 2.05 Optional Prepayments

(a) Optional Prepayments. The Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, at any time and from time to time prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (i) such notice shall be in the form of a written Prepayment Notice, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, or may be given by telephone to the Administrative Agent (if promptly confirmed by such a written Prepayment Notice consistent with such telephonic notice) and must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) three Business Days before the date of prepayment; (ii) such Prepayment Notice shall specify (A) whether such prepayment shall be applied to prepay the Term Loans of the Term Lenders and/or prepay outstanding principal under any other Program Debt Documents, (B) the prepayment date and (C) the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; and (iii) each such partial prepayment shall be in an amount not less than $1,000,000 or a larger multiple of $1,000,000. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the applicable Lenders of the contents thereof. Each Prepayment Notice shall be irrevocable.

(b) Application. Each optional prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied (i) to reduce all Term Loan Required Payments pro rata, or (ii) if the Borrower so directs in relation to any optional partial prepayment of the Term Loan pursuant to Section 2.05(a), against the next in time amortization payment(s) only. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.08, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 2.13.

SECTION 2.06 Mandatory Prepayments.

(a) [Reserved].

(b) Illegality. If it is or will be unlawful in any jurisdiction for a Lender to perform any of its obligations under any Loan Documents, or to fund or maintain its share in the Loans, or any Obligor is or becomes a Sanctioned Person, and the Lender (or in the case of any Obligor being or becoming a Sanctioned Person, any Lender) has notified the Administrative Agent and the Borrower of the same: (i) the Borrower shall repay or prepay that Lender’s participation in the Loans in full; and (ii) the Commitments of that Lender will be immediately cancelled. The date for repayment or prepayment referred to in (i) above will be, (x) in the case where it is already unlawful for such Lender to perform such obligations or to fund or maintain its share in the Loans, or an Obligor has become a Sanctioned Person, as soon as practicable and (y) in the case of unlawfulness that will occur in the future, the date specified by that Lender in the relevant notification, which shall not be earlier than ten (10) Business Days preceding the last day of any applicable grace period allowed by law and which shall be a date falling at least thirty (30) days from the date of the notice (but in any event no later than the last day of any applicable grace period allowed by law).

(c) Change of Control. Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Borrower shall (i) prepay the Loans in full, together with accrued interest thereon to the date of such prepayment, and (ii) terminate all of the unused Commitments, if any. Any prepayment of the Loans under this Section 2.06(c) shall be made on the date of occurrence of such Change of Control.

(d) Failure of Security. If any of the Security Documents do not, or shall have ceased to, constitute an enforceable Security Interest over the monies, interests and assets expressed to be assigned, mortgaged, charged, pledged or over which Security Interests are otherwise created or expressed to be created thereby (a “Collateral Defect”), and (if the same is capable of remedy) the same has not been remedied to the satisfaction of the Administrative Agent within 15 Business Days (provided that during such period the Borrower is diligently taking action to remedy such Collateral Defect), the Administrative Agent may by written notice to the Borrower declare that the Loans shall become immediately due and payable in whole or in part by the Borrower, provided that if the Collateral Defect relates to some but not all of the Collateral Vessels, the Borrower may prepay a portion of the Loans pursuant to Section 2.05(a) in such amount as is required such that, following such payment, no BB Event and no DSCR Cash Sweep would be continuing (for these purposes, not taking into account the Collateral Vessel(s) the subject of the Collateral Defect).

(e) Unlawfulness. If it is or becomes unlawful for an Obligor to perform any of its material obligations under the Loan Documents or any Related Contract other than as a result of any action or inaction of an Obligor (an “Unlawfulness Event”), and (if the same is capable of remedy) the same has not been remedied to the satisfaction of the Administrative Agent within 15 Business Days (provided that during such period the Borrower is diligently taking action to remedy such Unlawfulness

Event), the Administrative Agent may by written notice to the Borrower declare that the Loans shall become immediately due and payable in whole or in part by the Borrower, provided that if the Unlawfulness Event relates to some but not all of the Collateral Vessels, the Borrower may prepay a portion of the Loans pursuant to Section 2.05(a) in such amount as is required such that, following such payment, no BB Event and no DSCR Cash Sweep would be continuing (for these purposes, not taking into account the Collateral Vessel(s) the subject of the Unlawfulness Event).

(f) Application of Mandatory Prepayments. Any repayment or Prepayment under Section 2.06(c) to (e) (inclusive) shall be applied, pro rata and pari passu, to repay the outstanding principal of the Term Loan under this Agreement and the outstanding principal under any other Program Debt Document (provided that if any relevant Secured Party thereunder elects not to receive such amounts, such amounts shall be applied to repay the outstanding principal of the Term Loan under this Agreement pro rata to the remaining installments).

SECTION 2.07 [Reserved].

SECTION 2.08 Interest.

(a) Interest Rates. Subject to paragraphs (b) and (e) of this Section, each Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the LIBO Rate for the Interest Period therefor plus the Margin.

(b) Default Interest. If any amount payable by any Obligor under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including principal of any Loan, interest, fees and other amount) is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Default Rate. Upon the request of the Required Lenders, while any Event of Default exists, the Borrower shall pay interest on the principal amount of all Loans outstanding hereunder at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Default Rate.

(c) Payment Dates. Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified herein; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan, accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any LIBO Rate Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Borrowing shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

(d) Interest Computation. All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e) Market Disruption. If in respect of any Interest Period (i) at or about 12:00 noon, London time, two Business Days prior to the commencement of such Interest Period the Screen Rate is not available, and there is no Reference Bank Rate, or (ii) before close of business in London on the Business Day prior to the commencement of such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent receives notifications from a Lender or Lenders (whose participations in the Loans exceed 35%) of the aggregate outstanding amount of all the Advances under the applicable Senior Secured Facility) that the cost to it or them of obtaining matching deposits in the interbank market would be in excess of LIBOR, then (in each case) the rate of interest on the relevant Lender’s share of that Loan for the Interest Period shall be the rate per annum which is the sum of: (x) the rate notified to the Administrative Agent by the relevant Lender(s) as soon as practicable and in any event by close of business on the first day of such Interest Period, to be that which expresses as a percentage rate per annum the cost to the relevant Lender(s) of funding its or their participation in the Loans; and (y) the Margin.

(f) Modification and/or discontinuation of certain benchmarks. Without prejudice to any other provisions of this Agreement (including in particular this Section 2.08 and Section 9.02(b) (Amendments, Etc.), each Party acknowledges and agrees for the benefit of each other Party that:

(i) IBOR benchmarks (i) may be subject to methodological or other changes which could affect their value, or (ii) may not comply with applicable laws and regulations (including Regulation (EU) 2016/1011 of the European Parliament and of the Council, as amended (EU Benchmarks Regulation)) and/or (iii) may be permanently discontinued; and

(ii) the occurrence of any of the aforementioned events set out in (f)(i) above and/or events set out in Section 2.16 (Inability to Determine Rates) may have adverse consequences which may materially impact the economics of the financing transaction contemplated under this Agreement.

SECTION 2.09 Fees.

(a) Fee Letters. Fees (other than the Commitment Fee) shall be paid by the Borrower in the amount, in the manner and at the times agreed in the Fee Letters.

(b) Term Loan Commitment Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Term Lender a commitment fee on the daily average unused amount of the Term Loan Commitment of such Term Lender, for each day during the period from the Closing Date until the Term Loan Availability Termination Date, at a rate equal to 0.25% per annum (or, during any period where less than 50% of the aggregate Term Loan Commitments have been utilized, 0.50% per annum), accrued commitment fees to be payable on each Borrowing Date in respect of the Term Loan and upon any termination or expiry of the applicable Term Loan Commitments.

(d) [Reserved].

(e) [Reserved].

(f) Fee Computation. All fees payable under this Section shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). Each determination by the Administrative Agent of a fee hereunder shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

SECTION 2.10 Evidence of Debt. Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice records evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Credit Extension made by such Lender. The Administrative Agent shall maintain the Register in accordance with Section 9.04(c). The entries made in the records maintained pursuant to this paragraph (a) shall be prima facie evidence absent manifest error of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein. Any failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such records or make any entry therein or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In the event of any conflict between the records maintained by any Lender and the records maintained by the Administrative Agent in such matters, the records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.

SECTION 2.11 Payments Generally; Several Obligations of Lenders.

(a) Payments by Borrower. All payments to be made by the Borrower hereunder and the other Loan Documents shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in immediately available funds not later than 2:00pm (New York City time) on the date specified herein. All amounts received by the Administrative Agent after such time on any date shall be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fees shall continue to accrue. The Administrative Agent will apply such amounts in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement.

(b) Application of Insufficient Payments. Subject to Section 4.02 of the Intercreditor Agreement, if at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest, fees and other amounts then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, to pay interest, fees and other amounts then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest, fees and other amounts then due to such parties, and (ii) second, to pay principal then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal, then due to such parties.

(c) Presumptions by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender, with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

(d) Several Obligations of Lenders. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 9.03(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan or to fund any such participation or to make any such payment on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan, to purchase its participations or to make its payment under Section 9.03(c).

SECTION 2.12 Sharing of Payments. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or other obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon or other such obligations greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and such other obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them; provided that:

(i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and

(ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), (y) [reserved], or (z) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply).

The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under Applicable Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

SECTION 2.13 Compensation for Losses. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) [reserved], (c) the failure for any reason to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any amount of any Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto, or (d) the assignment of any Loan or part of a Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.18(b), then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. Such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) that would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest that would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate that such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the London interbank eurodollar market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

SECTION 2.14 Increased Costs.

(a) Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender;

(ii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Indemnified Taxes, Other Taxes and Excluded Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan, or to increase the cost to such Lender or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender, the Borrower will pay to such Lender, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to the Borrower, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

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

SECTION 2.15 Taxes.

(a) Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section, the term “Applicable Law” includes FATCA.

(b) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any 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 Authority in accordance with Applicable Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower 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) Payment of Other Taxes by Borrower. The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(d) Indemnification by Borrower. The Borrower shall 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 Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any 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 Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

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

(f) Status of Lenders. Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall to the extent legally able to do so, use reasonable efforts to deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding sentence, (i) nothing herein shall obligate any Lender to disclose any confidential information in connection therewith and (ii) the completion, execution and submission of such documentation 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.

(g) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative 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 any Loan Document.

SECTION 2.16 Benchmark Replacement Setting.

(a) Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document (and any Hedging Agreement shall be deemed not to be a “Loan Document” for purposes of this Section titled “Benchmark Replacement Setting”), if a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for

all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders.

If (i) a Benchmark Replacement Date has occurred and the applicable Benchmark Replacement on such Benchmark Replacement Date is a Benchmark Replacement other than the sum of: (a) Term SOFR and (b) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment, (ii) subsequently, the Relevant Governmental Body recommends for use a forward-looking term rate based on SOFR and the Borrower requests that the Administrative Agent review the administrative feasibility of such recommended forward-looking term rate for purposes of this Agreement and (iii) following such request from the Borrower, the Administrative Agent determines (in its sole discretion) that such forward looking term rate is administratively feasible for the Administrative Agent, then the Administrative Agent may (in its sole discretion) provide the Borrower and Lenders with written notice that from and after a date identified in such notice: (i) a Benchmark Replacement Date shall be deemed to have occurred, the Benchmark Replacement on such Benchmark Replacement Date shall be deemed to be a Benchmark Replacement determined in accordance with clause (1) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” under this Section titled “Benchmark Replacement Setting”; provided, however, that if upon such Benchmark Replacement Date the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment is unable to be determined in accordance with clause (1) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” and the corresponding definition of “Benchmark Replacement Adjustment”, then the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment in effect immediately prior to such new Benchmark Replacement Date shall be utilized for purposes of this Benchmark Replacement (for avoidance of doubt, for purposes of this proviso, such Benchmark Replacement Adjustment shall be the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment which was established in accordance with the definition of “Benchmark Replacement Adjustment” on the date determined in accordance with clauses (1) or (2), as applicable, of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement Date” hereunder) and (ii) such forward looking term rate shall be deemed to be the forward looking term rate referenced in the definition of “Term SOFR” for all purposes hereunder or under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting and any subsequent Benchmark settings, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document. For the avoidance of doubt, if the circumstances described in the immediately preceding sentence shall occur, all applicable provisions set forth in this Section titled “Benchmark Replacement Setting” shall apply with respect to such election of the Administrative Agent as completely as if such forward-looking term rate was initially determined in accordance with clause (1) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement”, including, without limitation, the provisions set forth in clauses (b) and (f) of this Section titled “Benchmark Replacement Setting.”.

(b) Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(c) Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) any Benchmark Replacement Date and the related Benchmark Replacement, (ii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, and (iii) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to clause (d) below. For the avoidance of doubt, any notice required to be delivered by the Administrative Agent as set forth in

this Section titled “Benchmark Replacement Setting” may be provided, at the option of the Administrative Agent (in its sole discretion), in one or more notices and may be delivered together with, or as part of any amendment which implements any Benchmark Replacement or Benchmark Conforming Changes. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section titled “Benchmark Replacement Setting,” 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 titled “Benchmark Replacement Setting.”.

(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 Term SOFR or USD LIBOR) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

(e) Disclaimer. The Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to (i) the administration, submission or any other matter related to the London interbank offered rate or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof (including, without limitation any Benchmark Replacement implemented hereunder), (ii) the composition or characteristics of any such Benchmark Replacement, including whether it is similar to, or produces the same value or economic equivalence to USD LIBOR (or any other Benchmark) or have the same volume or liquidity as did USD LIBOR (or any other Benchmark), (iii) any actions or use of its discretion or other decisions or determinations made with respect to any matters covered by this Section titled “Benchmark Replacement Setting” including, without limitation, whether or not a Benchmark Transition Event has occurred, the removal or lack thereof of unavailable or non-representative tenors, the implementation or lack thereof of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, the delivery or non-delivery of any notices required by clause (c) above or otherwise in accordance herewith, and (iv) the effect of any of the foregoing provisions of this Section titled “Benchmark Replacement Setting.”.

(f) Certain Defined Terms.

As used in this Section titled “Benchmark Replacement Setting”:

“Available Tenor” means, as of any date of determination and with respect to the then-current Benchmark, as applicable, any tenor for such Benchmark or payment period for interest calculated with reference to such Benchmark, as applicable, that is or may be used for determining the length of an Interest Period pursuant to this Agreement as of such date and not including, for the avoidance of doubt, any tenor for such Benchmark that is then-removed from the definition of “Interest Period” pursuant to clause (d) of this Section titled “Benchmark Replacement Setting.”.

“Benchmark” means, initially, USD LIBOR; provided that if a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred with respect to USD LIBOR or the then-current Benchmark, then “Benchmark” means the applicable Benchmark Replacement to the extent that such Benchmark Replacement has replaced such prior benchmark rate pursuant to clause (a) of this Section titled “Benchmark Replacement Setting.”.

“Benchmark Replacement” means, for any Available Tenor, the first alternative set forth in the order below that can be determined by the Administrative Agent for the applicable Benchmark Replacement Date:

(1)

the sum of: (a) Term SOFR and (b) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment;

(2)

the sum of: (a) Daily Simple SOFR and (b) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment;

(3)

the sum of: (a) the alternate benchmark rate that has been selected by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower as the replacement for the then-current Benchmark for the applicable Corresponding Tenor giving due consideration to (i) any selection or recommendation of a replacement benchmark rate or the mechanism for determining such a rate by the Relevant Governmental Body or (ii) any evolving or then prevailing market convention for determining a benchmark rate as a replacement for the then-current Benchmark for U.S. dollar-denominated syndicated credit facilities at such time and (b) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment; provided that, in the case of clause (1), such Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement is displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion.

If the Benchmark Replacement as determined pursuant to clause (1), (2) or (3) 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 for any applicable Interest Period and Available Tenor for any setting of such Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement:

(1)

for purposes of clauses (1) and (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement,” the first alternative set forth in the order below that can be determined by the Administrative Agent: (a) the spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) as of the Reference Time such Benchmark Replacement is first set for such Interest Period that has been selected or recommended by the Relevant Governmental Body for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for the applicable Corresponding Tenor; (b) the spread adjustment (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) as of the Reference Time such Benchmark Replacement is first set for such Interest Period that would apply to the fallback rate for a derivative transaction referencing the ISDA Definitions to be effective upon an index cessation event with respect to such Benchmark for the applicable Corresponding Tenor; and

(2)

for purposes of clause (3) of the definition of “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 the Administrative Agent and the

Borrower for the applicable Corresponding Tenor giving due consideration to (i) 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 on the applicable Benchmark Replacement Date or (ii) 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 U.S. dollar denominated syndicated credit facilities; provided that, in the case of clause (1) above, such adjustment is displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such Benchmark Replacement Adjustment from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion.

“Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes” means, with respect to any Benchmark Replacement, any technical, administrative or operational changes (including changes to the definition of “Business Day,” the definition of “Interest Period,” timing and frequency of determining rates and making payments of interest, timing of borrowing requests or prepayment, conversion or continuation notices, length of lookback periods, the applicability of breakage provisions, the formula for calculating any successor rates identified pursuant to the definition of “Benchmark Replacement”, the formula, methodology or convention for applying the successor Floor to the successor Benchmark Replacement and other technical, administrative or operational matters) that the Administrative Agent decides may be appropriate to reflect the adoption and implementation of such Benchmark Replacement and to permit the administration thereof by the Administrative Agent in a manner substantially consistent with market practice (or, if the Administrative Agent decides that adoption of any portion of such market practice is not administratively feasible or if the Administrative Agent determines that no market practice for the administration of such Benchmark Replacement exists, in such other manner of administration as the Administrative Agent decides is reasonably necessary in connection with the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents).

“Benchmark Replacement Date” means the earliest to occur of the following events with respect to the then current Benchmark:

(1)

in the case of clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition Event,” the later of (a) the date of the public statement or publication of information referenced therein and (b) the date on which the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) permanently or indefinitely ceases to provide all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof);

(2)

in the case of clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition Event,” the date of the public statement or publication of information referenced therein; or

(3)

in the case of an Early Opt-in Election, the sixth (6th) Business Day after the date notice of such Early Opt-in Election is provided to the Lenders, so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Early Opt-in Election is provided to the Lenders, written notice of objection to such Early Opt-in Election from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders.

For the avoidance of doubt, (i) if the event giving rise to the Benchmark Replacement Date occurs on the same day as, but earlier than, the Reference Time in respect of any determination, the Benchmark Replacement Date will be deemed to have occurred prior to the Reference Time for such determination and (ii) the “Benchmark Replacement Date” will be deemed to have occurred in the case of clause (1) or (2) 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:

(1)

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);

(3)

For the avoidance of doubt, a “Benchmark Transition Event” will be deemed to have occurred with respect to any Benchmark if a public statement or publication of information set forth above has occurred with respect to each then-current Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof).

“Corresponding Tenor” with respect to any Available Tenor means, as applicable, either a tenor (including overnight) or an interest payment period having approximately the same length (disregarding business day adjustment) as such Available Tenor.

“Daily Simple SOFR” means, for any day, SOFR, with the conventions for this rate (which will include a lookback) being established by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the conventions for this rate selected or recommended by the Relevant Governmental Body for determining “Daily Simple SOFR” for syndicated business loans; provided, that if the Administrative Agent decides that any such convention is not administratively feasible for the Administrative Agent, then the Administrative Agent may establish another convention in its reasonable discretion.

“Early Opt-in Election” means, if the then-current Benchmark is USD LIBOR, the occurrence of the following:

(1)

a notification by the Administrative Agent to (or the request by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent to notify) each of the other parties hereto that at least five currently outstanding U.S. dollar denominated syndicated credit facilities in the U.S. syndicated loan market at such time contain (as a result of amendment or as originally executed) a SOFR-based rate (including SOFR, a term SOFR or any other rate based upon SOFR) as a benchmark rate (and such syndicated credit facilities are identified in such notice and are publicly available for review), and

“Relevant Governmental Body” means the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, or a committee officially endorsed or convened by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, or any successor thereto.

SECTION 2.17 [Reserved].

SECTION 2.18 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender (x) requests Borrower to repay its Loans in full pursuant to Section 2.06(b), (y) requests compensation under Section 2.14, or (z) requires the Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15, then such Lender shall (at the request of the Borrower) use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate the illegality contemplated by Section 2.06(b) or eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.14 or 2.15, as the case may be, in the future, and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) Replacement and Termination of Lenders. If (x) any Lender requests (A) Borrower to repay its Loans in full pursuant to Section 2.06(b) or (B) compensation under Section 2.14, or (y) the Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15 and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, (I) require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 9.04), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 2.14 or Section 2.15) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment) or (II) prepay such Lender’s Loans in full and permanently reduce the Commitments by the amount of such payment; provided that:

(i) the Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee (if any) specified in Section 9.04;

(ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 2.13) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);

(iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.14 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.15, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;

(iv) such assignment does not conflict with Applicable Law and such Lender shall have satisfied any know your customer requirements of such Lender in connection with such assignment as required by Applicable Law; and

(v) in the case of any assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent.

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

Notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, in the event that a Lender acts as the Administrative Agent, such Lender may not be replaced hereunder except in accordance with the terms of Section 8.06.

SECTION 2.19 [Reserved].

SECTION 2.20 Defaulting Lenders.

(a) Defaulting Lender Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law:

(i) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Required Lenders and Section 9.02(b).

(ii) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VII or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 9.08 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, [reserved]; third, [reserved]; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, [reserved]; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments without giving effect to clause (iv) below. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender pursuant to this Section shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii) Commitment Fees. No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Commitment Fee for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative 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, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the Commitments (without giving effect to paragraph (a)(iv) above), whereupon, such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the 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.

SECTION 2.21 Increases in Commitments.

(a) Request for Increase. The Borrower may, by notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall promptly notify the Lenders), request an increase in the Term Loan Commitments (each such increase, an “Incremental Commitment”); provided that any such request for an increase shall (i) be in a minimum amount of $20,000,000 (or such lesser amount as may be approved by the Administrative Agent) and (ii) not result in the aggregate amount of the Loan Secured Obligations and the Additional Secured Obligations referred to in the Intercreditor Agreement to exceed the maximum amount permitted thereunder.

(b) Incremental Lenders. An Incremental Commitment may be provided by any existing Lender or other Person that is an Eligible Assignee and is not a Person of the type described in Section 9.04(b)(iv) (each such existing Lender or other Person that agrees to provide an Incremental Commitment, an “Incremental Lender”). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Lender shall have any obligation to agree to increase its Commitment, or to provide a Commitment, pursuant to this Section and any election to do so shall be in the sole discretion of such Lender.

(c) Terms of Incremental Commitments. The Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall determine the effective date for such increase pursuant to this Section (an “Incremental Commitment Effective Date”) and, if applicable, the final allocation of such increase among the Persons providing such increase; provided that such date shall be a Business Day at least 10 Business Days after delivery of the request for such increase (unless otherwise approved by the Administrative Agent) and at least 30 days prior to the Maturity Date.

In order to effect such increase, the Borrower, the applicable Incremental Lender(s) and the Administrative Agent (but no other Lenders or Persons) shall enter into one or more Joinder Agreements, each in form and substance satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, pursuant to which the applicable Incremental Lender(s) will provide the Incremental Commitment(s).

Effective as of the applicable Incremental Commitment Effective Date, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section, each Incremental Commitment shall be a Term Loan Commitment (and not a separate facility hereunder), each Incremental Lender providing such Incremental Commitment shall be, and have all the rights of, a Term Lender for all purposes of this Agreement.

(d) Conditions to Effectiveness. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the increase in the Commitments pursuant to this Section shall not be effective with respect to any Incremental Lender unless:

(i) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the Incremental Commitment Effective Date and after giving effect to such increase;

(ii) the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement are true and correct on and as of the Incremental Commitment Effective Date and after giving effect to such increase, as though made on and as of such date (or, if any such representation or warranty is expressly stated to have been made as of a specific date, as of such specific date);

(iii) the Administrative Agent shall have received one or more Joinder Agreements contemplated above, providing for Incremental Commitments in the amount of such increase, and satisfied all know your customer requirements (including any know your customer requirements of the Security Trustee) in respect of such Incremental Lender; and

(iv) the Administrative Agent shall have received such legal opinions and other documents reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in connection therewith.

As of such Incremental Commitment Effective Date, upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt of the documents required by this paragraph (d), the Administrative Agent shall record the information contained in the applicable Joinder Agreement(s) in the Register and give prompt notice of the increase in the Commitments to the Borrower and the Lenders (including each Incremental Lender).

SECTION 5.22 Provision of further information. Each Obligor shall, and shall procure that the Manager shall, as soon as practicable following receipt of a request by the Administrative Agent, provide the Administrative Agent, with sufficient copies for all the Lenders, with any additional or further financial or other information relating to any of the Collateral Vessels, the Obligatory Insurances or to any other matter relevant to, or to any provision of, a Loan Document which the Administrative Agent may reasonably request.

(a) the relevant Collateral Vessel is managed by the Manager; and

(b) no Manager shall terminate or materially vary (or agree to materially vary) the terms of its management.

(a) if a Vessel Owner enters into a Charter in respect of a Collateral Vessel, it promptly notifies the Administrative Agent thereof;

(c) such Vessel Owner serves a notice of assignment upon the Charterer pursuant to the terms of the General Assignment and, if such Vessel Owner is party to a Charter with a term that exceeds twelve (12) months (including any extension options) such Vessel Owner shall obtain an acknowledgement from the Charterer (and such Vessel Owner shall use reasonable endeavors to obtain such acknowledgement in a signed writing as opposed to by email, which shall otherwise be acceptable if such Charterer refuses to provide such acknowledgement in a signed writing);

(d) Vessel Owners may only enter into bareboat or demise charters with Eligible Bareboat Charterers, as such term is defined in Schedule 2.02, and, prior to entering into any such bareboat or demise charter, the Borrower shall procure that a Charterer’s Undertaking is provided by the applicable Charterer (unless, after using commercially reasonable efforts to procure such Charterer’s Undertaking, the Borrower is unable to reach agreement with the relevant Charterer for the provision of such Charterer’s Undertaking and the Administrative Agent consents to the foregoing). In addition, the Borrower shall procure that any such bareboat or demise charter includes an undertaking from the Charterer to the effect that such Charterer will not permit the use or operation of the applicable Collateral Vessel (i) in any country or territory that at such time is the subject of Sanctions, or (ii) in any other manner that will result in a violation by any Person, the Finance Parties or any other person participating in the Program Debt (whether as underwriter, advisor, investor or otherwise) of Sanctions;

SECTION 5.26 Scope of Obligatory Insurances. Each Vessel Owner will, or in the case of a Collateral Vessel subject to a Charter which is a demise or bareboat charter, shall procure that the Charterer of such Collateral Vessel will, in respect of each Collateral Vessel:

(a) at all times for a Collateral Vessel, keep that Collateral Vessel insured in the applicable Required Insurance Amount, in Dollars in the name of the relevant Vessel Owner or in the joint names of the Vessel Owner, the Charterer (if such Collateral Vessel is subject to a Charter which is a demise or bareboat charter), the Manager (except if such Collateral Vessel is subject to a Charter which is a demise or bareboat charter to a person not a member of the Guarantor Group), any crewing agents (except if the Collateral Vessel is subject to a Charter which is a demise or bareboat charter to a person not a member of the Guarantor Group) and (if the Administrative Agent so requires) the Security Trustee (provided that all such Persons, other than the Security Trustee, any third party crewing agents (outside the Guarantor Group) and, in respect of protection and indemnity liability insurances only, any crewing agents within the Guarantor Group, have provided an assignment of their interests in such insurances to the Security Trustee or, in the case of Collateral Vessels that are subject to a demise or bareboat charter, to the relevant Vessel Owner or the Security Trustee (provided further that in such cases, the terms of any assignment of insurances in favor of the relevant Vessel Owner shall expressly provide that the Vessel Owner shall assign its rights thereunder in favor of the Security Trustee, and the relevant Vessel Owner provides such onward assignment and assignment of its own interests in such insurances to the Security Trustee)) without the Administrative Agent or the Security Trustee being liable for but having the right to pay premiums, through brokers approved by the Administrative Agent against fire and usual marine risks (including hull and machinery and Excess Risks) with approved underwriters or insurance companies approved by the Administrative Agent and by policies in form and content approved by the Administrative Agent with a deductible which is a Required Deductible Amount or in an amount reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent;

(b) at all times for a Collateral Vessel, keep that Collateral Vessel insured in the applicable Required Insurance Amount in the same manner as above against war risks (including risks of mines and all risks, whether or not regarded as war risks, London Blocking and Trapping Addendum and Lost Vessel clause, excepted by the free of capture and seizure clauses in the standard form of Lloyds marine policy) either:

(i) with underwriters or insurance companies approved by the Administrative Agent and by policies in form and content approved by the Administrative Agent; or

(ii) by entering the relevant Collateral Vessel in an approved war risks association,

and for the avoidance of doubt, such war risks insurance will include protection and indemnity liability up to at least the applicable Required Insurance Amount, excluding any liability in respect of death, injury or damage to crew, and shall include a deductible which is a Required Deductible Amount or in an amount reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent;

(c) at all times for a Collateral Vessel, keep that Collateral Vessel entered in respect of her full value and tonnage in an approved protection and indemnity association against all risks as are normally covered by such protection and indemnity association (including pollution risks and the proportion not recoverable in case of collision under the running down clause inserted in the ordinary Lloyds policies), such cover for pollution risks to be for:

(i) a minimum amount of US$1,000,000,000 or such other amount of cover against pollution risks as shall at any time be comprised in the basic entry of each Collateral Vessel with either a protection and indemnity association which is an acceptable member of either the International Group of protection and indemnity associations (or any successor organization designated by the Administrative Agent for this purpose) or the International Group (or such successor organization) itself; or

(ii) if the International Group or any such successor ceases to exist or ceases to provide or arrange any cover for pollution risks (or any supplemental cover for pollution risks over and above that afforded by the basic entry of each Collateral Vessel with its protection and indemnity association), such aggregate amount of cover against pollution risks as shall be available on the open market and by basic entry with a protection and indemnity association for ships of the same type, size, age and flag as each respective Collateral Vessel,

provided that, if any Collateral Vessel has ceased trading or is in lay up and in either case has unloaded all cargo, the level of pollution risks cover afforded by ordinary protection and indemnity cover available through a member of the International Group or such successor organization or, as the case may be, on the open market in such circumstances shall be sufficient for such purposes; and

(d) at all times for a Collateral Vessel, whenever any Collateral Vessel is trading to Japanese territorial waters and when so required by the Administrative Agent, maintain in full force and effect social responsibility insurance in respect of the Collateral Vessel with underwriters or insurance companies approved by the Administrative Agent and by policies in form and content approved by the Administrative Agent, provided always that a first class Vessel Owner or operator of vessels such as the Collateral Vessels would maintain and effect such social responsibility insurance.

SECTION 5.27 Obligatory Insurances. Without prejudice to its obligations under Section 5.26, each Vessel Owner will or, in the case of a Collateral Vessel subject to a Charter which is a demise or bareboat charter to a person who is not a member of the Guarantor Group, shall procure that the Charterer of such Collateral Vessel will:

(a) not without the prior consent of the Administrative Agent materially alter any Obligatory Insurance nor make, do, consent or agree to any act or omission which would or might render any Obligatory Insurance invalid, void, voidable or unenforceable or render any sum paid out under any Obligatory Insurance repayable in whole or in part;

(b) not cause or permit any Collateral Vessel to be operated or traded in any way inconsistent with the provisions or warranties of, or implied in, or outside the cover provided by, or which would trigger the exclusion clause (or similar) under, any Obligatory Insurance or to be engaged in any voyage or to carry any cargo not permitted by any Obligatory Insurances without first covering the relevant Collateral Vessel in the relevant Required Insurance Amount and her freights for an amount approved by the Administrative Agent in Dollars or another approved currency with the Insurers;

(c) duly and punctually pay when due all premiums, calls, contributions or other sums of money from time to time payable in respect of any Obligatory Insurance;

(g) arrange for the execution and delivery of such guarantees as may from time to time be required by any protection and indemnity or war risks club or association;

(h) procure that the interest of the Security Trustee is noted on all policies of insurance;

SECTION 5.32 Rating. If, following the Closing Date, the Obligors obtain a credit rating from a rating agency as required by any Program Debt, the Borrower shall, solely during the period for which such rating is required to be maintained by the applicable Program Debt, be required to maintain a rating with the relevant rating agency or any replacement rating agent selected by Borrower. For the avoidance of any doubt, the requirement to maintain a rating shall not be breached if the rating changes (upwards or downwards) and, if a rating is provided by a rating agency but, prior to its publication, the ratings process is withdrawn, the Borrower shall not be required to maintain such rating.

Where the Borrower is unable to procure such Compliance Data after reasonable efforts, the Lead Sustainability Coordinator shall have reference to corresponding reasonable estimates for the applicable Delta Test Period obtained from a Classification Society at the Borrower’s cost, in place of any unavailable “Compliance Data” when calculating the AER and/or the Collateral Vessel Delta on the relevant Delta Test Date; and

(ii) the relevant extracts of the provisions of any Qualifying Charter Contract including a Sustainability Linked Charter Mechanism, certified by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower,

provided always that none of the Lenders shall publicly disclose such information delivered under this Section 5.34(a) with the identity of the relevant vessel without the prior written consent of the Borrower.

(c) Subject to any revisions and/or amendments to the Draft DC prepared by the Lead Sustainability Coordinator pursuant to Section 5.34(b) above being prior agreed in writing between the Administrative Agent, the Lead Sustainability Coordinator and the Borrower (the “Amended Draft DC”), on or before 2 Business Days before such next in time Delta Test Date, the Borrower must supply to, or procure the supply to, the Administrative Agent in sufficient copies (which may take the form of an electronic copy) for the Lead Sustainability Coordinator and all Lenders, a completed Decarbonization Certificate for the applicable Delta Test Period, in a form reflective of either the Draft DC or Amended Draft DC, as applicable, and which is signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower.

(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Lead Sustainability Coordinator shall not:

(i) have any duty to verify and/or confirm the accuracy of any information, calculations and/or other details (including but not limited to any Compliance Data provided to it in accordance with this Section 5.34) included and/or reflected in any Draft DC, Amended Draft DC and/or Decarbonization Certificate; and

(ii) shall not be liable to the Borrower or any other party for:

(A) any inaccuracies or errors in such information, calculations and/or other details (including but not limited to transposing any Compliance Data provided to it in accordance with this Section 5.34) included and/or reflected in any Draft DC, Amended Draft DC and/or Decarbonization Certificate; and/or

(B) any failure to deliver, or delay in delivering, a Draft DC to and/or any failure to agree, or delay in agreeing an Amended DC with, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in accordance with this Section 5.34, if such failure and/or delay in delivering any Draft DC and/or agreeing any Amended DC, arises as a result of, or in connection with, the Borrower’s (x) failure to deliver and/or delay in delivering, any Compliance Data and/or other information required by the Lead Sustainability Coordinator and/or a Decarbonization Certificate, and/or (y) failure to agree, or delay in agreeing, any Amended DC, in each case in accordance with the terms of this Section 5.34,

and the Borrower hereby confirms and acknowledges for the benefit of the Lead Sustainability Coordinator, that notwithstanding any of the provisions of this Agreement, the contents of any Decarbonization Certificate, signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower and delivered in accordance with this Section 5.34, shall be verified by the Borrower only, and shall be true and accurate in all material respects.

ARTICLE VIII

AGENCY

SECTION 8.01 Appointment and Authority. Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Administrative Agent shall, unless a contrary indication appears in a Loan Document, exercise or refrain from exercising any right, power, authority or discretion vested in it as Administrative Agent in accordance with any instructions given to it by (a) all Lenders or the relevant proportion of the Lenders if the relevant Loan Document stipulates the matter is, as applicable, an all Lender decision or a decision requiring some specified proportion of the Lenders and (b) in all other cases, the Required Lenders. Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.06(b), the provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and the Borrower shall not have rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Document (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any Applicable Law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

SECTION 8.02 Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall, if applicable, have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the term

“Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity, if applicable. Such Person 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, the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

SECTION 8.03 Exculpatory Provisions.

(a) The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:

(i) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

(ii) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or Applicable Law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and

(iii) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 8.01 and 9.02), or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to the Administrative Agent in writing by the Borrower or a Lender.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

(d) If a payment is made by the Administrative Agent (or its Affiliates) in error or if a Lender or another recipient of funds is not otherwise entitled to receive such funds, then such Lender or recipient shall promptly following demand, but in any event not later than two Business Days following such demand, repay to the Administrative Agent the portion of such payment that was made in error (or otherwise not intended to be received) in same day funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent (or its Affiliate) to such Lender or recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at the applicable overnight rate from time to time in effect. Each Lender and other party hereto waives the discharge for value defense in respect of any such payment.

SECTION 8.04 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

SECTION 8.05 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative 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 appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

SECTION 8.06 Resignation of Administrative Agent.

(a) The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in New York, New York. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that in no event shall any such successor Administrative Agent be a Defaulting Lender. Whether or not a successor Administrative Agent has been appointed, such resignation of such retiring Administrative Agent shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.

(b) With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (i) the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (ii) except for any indemnity payments owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Administrative Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent), and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

SECTION 8.07 Non-Reliance on Other Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Agent or Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it 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.

SECTION 8.08 No Other Duties. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Structuring Agent, the Global Coordinator, the Mandated Lead Arrangers and the Co-Sustainability Coordinators, each listed on the cover page hereof, shall not have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent or a Lender hereunder.

SECTION 8.09 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Section 9.03) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

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

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Section 9.03.

SECTION 8.10 Intercreditor AgreementEach of the Lenders and each Hedge Counterparty hereby instructs the Administrative Agent to enter into the Intercreditor Agreement and agrees, for the enforceable benefit of all holders of all existing and future Secured Obligations and each existing and future Secured Lien Representative, to each of the matters set out in paragraphs (1) to (3) of the definition of Lien Sharing and Priority Confirmation in the Intercreditor Agreement.

(b) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign or transfer to any bank, financial institution, insurance company or a trust, fund or other entity which is regularly engaged in or established for the purpose of making, purchasing or investing in financing loans (an “Eligible Assignee”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or obligation at any time to determine if an entity constitutes an Eligible Assignee, and provided further that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loan or the Commitment assigned.

100

(ii) Required Consents. The consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and shall be deemed given if the Borrower has not rejected the proposed assignment within 10 Business Days of the Borrower’s receipt of written request for consent) shall be required unless the assignee is a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender (so long as such Affiliate is engaged in making commercial loans or similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business), or any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of assignment.

(iii) Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $5,000; provided that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

(iv) No Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made to (A) the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries or (B) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute a Defaulting Lender or a Subsidiary thereof.

(v) Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent and each Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under Applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14 and 9.03 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (d) of this Section.

101

(c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in New York, New York a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural Person, or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural Person, or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, and (iv) such Lender retains the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, provided that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in Section 9.02(b) which requires the consent of all Lenders. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 9.03(b) with respect to any payments made by such Lender to its Participant(s).

The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.13, 2.14 and 2.15 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.18 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.14 or 2.15, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.18(b) with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.12 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (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 United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is

102

recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(e) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

SECTION 9.05 Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower herein and in any Loan Document or other documents delivered in connection herewith or therewith or pursuant hereto or thereto shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof and the making of the Credit Extensions hereunder, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Credit Extension, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid and so long as the Commitments have not expired or been terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.13, 2.14, 9.03, 9.15 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the payment in full of the Obligations, the expiration or termination of the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

SECTION 9.06 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness; Electronic Execution.

(a) Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent, constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or in electronic (e.g., “pdf” or “tif”) format shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

(b) Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any Applicable Law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

SECTION 9.07 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal,

103

invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provision of this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent then such provision shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

SECTION 9.08 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held, and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing, by such Lender or any such Affiliate, to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or its Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of the Borrower may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch office or Affiliate of such Lender different from the branch office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts that are treated as interest on such Loan under Applicable Law (collectively, “charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) that may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with Applicable Law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate. To the extent lawful, the interest and charges that would have been paid in respect of such Loan but were not paid as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the amount collectible at the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate for each day to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender. Any amount collected by such Lender that exceeds the maximum amount collectible at the Maximum Rate shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance of such Loan or refunded to the Borrower so that at no time shall the interest and charges paid or payable in respect of such Loan exceed the maximum amount collectible at the Maximum Rate.

SECTION 9.15 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower is made to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to

106

be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate from time to time in effect.

SECTION 9.16 No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), the Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Affiliates’ understanding, that: (a) (i) no fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship between the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and the Administrative Agent or any Lender is intended to be or has been created in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents, irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent or any Lender has advised or is advising the Borrower or any Subsidiary on other matters, (ii) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Borrower and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, on the other hand, (iii) the Borrower has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent that it has deemed appropriate and (iv) the Borrower is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; and (b) (i) the Administrative Agent and the Lenders each is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Borrower or any of its Affiliates, or any other Person; (ii) none of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders has any obligation to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged, for their own accounts or the accounts of customers, in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrower and its Affiliates, and none of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Borrower or its Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by Law, the Borrower hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against any of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.

SECTION 9.17 Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any 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 appliable 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 that 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;

107

(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.

SECTION 9.18 QFC Provisions(i) . The following provisions apply to the extent that 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”):

(b) 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 Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

(i) In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC or to any QFC Credit Support (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

(ii) In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Loan Documents or any other agreement, but without prejudice to the requirements of Section 9.18(a), (1) Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support may not be exercised against a Covered Party if such Default Rights are related, directly or indirectly, to a BHC Act Affiliate of such Covered Party becoming subject to Insolvency Proceedings, except to the extent such exercise would be permitted under 12 C.F.R. § 252.84, 12 C.F.R. § 47.5, or 12 C.F.R. § 382.4, as applicable; and (2) nothing in the Loan Documents or any other agreement shall prohibit the transfer of any Covered Affiliate QFC Credit Support, any

108

interest or obligation in or under, or any property securing, such Covered Affiliate QFC Credit Support to a Transferee upon or following a BHC Act Affiliate of the Covered Party becoming subject to Insolvency Proceedings, unless the transfer would result in the party supported thereby being the beneficiary of such Covered Affiliate QFC Credit Support in violation of any law applicable to such party.

(ii) After a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party has become subject to Insolvency Proceedings, if any party to the Loan Documents, any Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support seeks to exercise any Default Right against such Covered Party with respect to such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support, the party seeking to exercise such Default Right shall have the burden of proof, by clear and convincing evidence, that the exercise of such Default Right is permitted hereunder.

(d) As used in this Section 9.18, the following terms have the following meanings;

(i) “BHC Act Affiliate” of a party means an “affiliate” (as such term is defined under, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 1841(k)) of such party.

(ii) “Covered Entity” means any of the following:

(A) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b);

(B) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or

(iii) “Covered Affiliate QFC Credit Support” means, in respect of a Supported QFC to which a Covered Party is the direct party, QFC Credit Support provided by a Covered Party that is a BHC Act Affiliate of such direct party.

(iv) “Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable.

(v) “Insolvency Proceeding” means a receivership, insolvency, liquidation, resolution, or similar proceeding.

(vi) “QFC” has the meaning assigned to the term “qualified financial contract” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 5390(c)(8)(D).

(vii) “Transferee” means, in respect of any Covered Affiliate QFC Credit Support, a person to whom such Covered Affiliate QFC Credit Support is transferred upon the provider of such Covered Affiliate QFC Credit Support becoming subject to Insolvency Proceedings or thereafter as part of its resolution, restructuring, or reorganization.

SECTION 9.19 Amendment and Restatement.

(a) This Agreement shall be deemed to be an amendment to and restatement of the Initial Credit Agreement, and the Initial Credit Agreement as amended and restated hereby shall remain in full force and effect and is hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects. This Agreement is not intended to constitute, nor does it constitute, an interruption, suspension of continuity, satisfaction, discharge of prior duties, novation, or termination of the Initial Credit Agreement or the liens, security interests, loans, guarantees, liabilities, expenses, or obligations under the Initial Credit Agreement, or the collateral thereunder. Each of the Obligors affirms its duties and obligations under the terms of the Initial Credit Agreement (as amended and restated by this Agreement). This Agreement amends and restates the Initial Credit Agreement in its entirety and any obligation thereunder shall be deemed to be outstanding under this Agreement. If there is a conflict between the Initial Credit Agreement and this Agreement, this Agreement shall govern from and after the Restatement Date. Upon the Restatement Date, each reference to the Initial Credit Agreement in any other Secured Debt Document or in any other document, instrument or agreement shall mean and be a reference to the Initial Credit Agreement as amended and restated by this Agreement.

(b) Each Obligor hereby expressly acknowledges and agrees that as at the Restatement Date the Term Loan Required Payments (reflecting drawn Term Loan Commitments) which are outstanding are set out in the Repayment Schedule prepared as of the Restatement Date set forth in Schedule 2.03.

(c) Each Obligor hereby (i) expressly acknowledges the terms of this Agreement, (ii) ratifies and affirms its obligations under the Loan Documents (including guarantees and security agreements) executed by such Obligor and (iii) acknowledges, renews and extends its continued liability under all such Loan Documents and agrees such Loan Documents remain in full force and effect, including with respect to the obligations of the Borrower as modified by this Agreement. Each Obligor further represents and warrants to each Secured Party that after giving effect to this Agreement, neither the modification of the Initial Credit Agreement effected pursuant to this Agreement, nor the execution, delivery, performance or effectiveness of this Agreement (A) impairs the validity, effectiveness or priority of the Liens granted pursuant to any Secured Debt Document (as such term is defined in the Initial Credit Agreement), and such Liens continue unimpaired with the same priority to secure repayment of all Obligations, whether heretofore or hereafter incurred; or (B) requires that any new filings be made or other action taken to perfect or to maintain the perfection of such Liens.

(d) Each Obligor hereby agrees, acknowledges and affirms that (i) each of the Loan Documents to which it is a party shall remain in full force and effect and shall constitute security for all Obligations pursuant to the Initial Credit Agreement as amended and restated hereby, and (ii) any reference to the Initial Credit Agreement appearing in any other Secured Debt Document shall on and after the Restatement Date be deemed to refer to the Initial Credit Agreement as amended and restated hereby. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Obligor hereby confirms the security interest in the Collateral granted by it in favor of the Security Trustee pursuant to each Collateral Document to which it is a party.
