components of each of them), any amount in any currency other than Dollars shall be deemed to refer to the Dollar Equivalent thereof and any requisite currency translation shall be determined by the Administrative Agent. For purposes of all
calculations and determinations hereunder, and all certificates delivered hereunder, all amounts represented by such terms shall be expressed in Dollars or the Dollar Equivalent thereof.
(c) The Administrative Agent shall determine the Dollar Equivalent of any amount when required or permitted
hereby, and a determination thereof by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, rely on any determination by the Company. The Administrative Agent may determine
or redetermine the Dollar Equivalent of any amount on any date either in its own discretion or upon the request of the Company or any Lender, including without limitation, the Dollar Equivalent of any Loan or Letter of Credit made or issued in an
Agreed Currency other than Dollars.
32
(d) The Administrative Agent may set up appropriate rounding‑off mechanisms or otherwise round‑off amounts
hereunder to the nearest higher or lower amount in whole Dollars, whole Euros, whole Sterling or whole cents or other subunits of an Agreed Currency to ensure amounts owing by any party hereunder or that otherwise need to be calculated or converted
hereunder are expressed in whole units of the applicable Agreed Currency or in whole subunits of the applicable Agreed Currency, as may be necessary or appropriate.
1.07 Interest Rates. The interest rate on Eurocurrency Rate Loans is determined by
reference to LIBOR, which is derived from the London interbank offered rate. The London interbank offered rate is intended to represent the rate at which contributing banks may obtain short-term borrowings from each other in the London interbank
market. In July 2017, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority announced that, after the end of 2021, it would no longer persuade or compel contributing banks to make rate submissions to the ICE Benchmark Administration (together with any successor to the
ICE Benchmark Administrator, the “IBA”) for purposes of the IBA setting the London interbank offered rate. As a result, it is possible that commencing in 2022, the London interbank offered rate may no longer be available or may no longer be
deemed an appropriate reference rate upon which to determine the interest rate on Eurocurrency Rate Loans. In light of this eventuality, public and private sector industry initiatives are currently underway to identify new or alternative reference
rates to be used in place of the London interbank offered rate. In the event that the London interbank offered rate is no longer available or in certain other circumstances as set forth in Section 3.03(b) of this Agreement, such Section
3.03(b) provides a mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest. The Administrative Agent will notify the Company, pursuant to Section 3.03, in advance of any change to the reference rate upon which the interest rate on
Eurocurrency Rate Loans is based. However, the Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission or any other matter related to the London interbank
offered rate or other rates in the definition of “LIBOR” or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof, including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative,
successor or replacement reference rate, as it may or may not be adjusted pursuant to Section 3.03(b), will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, LIBOR or have the same volume or liquidity as did the London
interbank offered rate prior to its discontinuance or unavailability.
1.08 Divisions. For all purposes under the Loan
Documents, in connection with any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right, obligation or
liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized and acquired on
the first date of its existence by the holders of its Equity Interests at such time.
33
ARTICLE II.
THE COMMITMENTS AND CREDIT EXTENSIONS
2.01 Commitments. Subject to the terms and
conditions set forth herein, each Lender severally agrees to make loans to each Borrower in Agreed Currencies from time to time (each such loan, a “Revolving Loan”) during the period from the Closing Date to the Maturity Date in an aggregate
principal amount not to exceed at any time outstanding such Lender’s Commitment; provided, however, that after giving effect to any Borrowing, (a) the Dollar Equivalent of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure shall not exceed its
Commitment, (b) the Dollar Equivalent of all Revolving Loans funded in Foreign Currencies shall not exceed the Foreign Currency Sublimit and (c) the aggregate amount of all Revolving Credit Exposure shall not exceed the Aggregate Commitments. Within
the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrowers may borrow under this Section 2.01, prepay under Section 2.04 and reborrow under this Section 2.01. Revolving Loans in Dollars may be
Base Rate Loans or Eurocurrency Rate Loans, as further provided herein. Revolving Loans in Agreed Currencies other than Dollars shall be Eurocurrency Rate Loans, as further provided herein.
2.02 Borrowings, Conversions and Continuations of Revolving Loans.
(a) Each Revolving Borrowing, each conversion of Revolving Loans from one Type to the other, and each continuation
of Revolving Loans as the same Type shall be made upon the Company’s irrevocable written notice to the Administrative Agent (via a written Revolving Loan Notice, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Company). Each such
notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than (x) 11:00 a.m., New York time, three Business Days prior to the requested date of any Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans in Dollars or of any
conversion of Eurocurrency Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans, (y) 11:00 a.m., New York time, four Business Days prior to the requested date of each Borrowing of Eurocurrency Rate Loans in a Foreign Currency or (z) 1:00 p.m., New York time, on the
requested date of each Borrowing of Base Rate Loans. Each Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of the Dollar Equivalent of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of the Dollar Equivalent of
$1,000,000 in excess thereof (or, if less, an aggregate principal amount equal to the remaining balance of the available applicable Commitments). Each Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $500,000 or a
whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof (or, if less, an aggregate amount equal to the remaining balance of the available Commitments).
(b) Each Revolving Loan Notice shall specify
(i) whether the Company is requesting a new Borrowing, a conversion of existing Revolving Loans
from one Type to the other, or the continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans for an additional Interest Period;
(ii) the applicable Borrower;
(iii) the principal of the Revolving Loans to be borrowed, converted or continued;
34
(iv) the applicable Agreed Currency;
(v) the Type of Revolving Loans to be borrowed or as to which existing Revolving Loans are to be
converted, and if applicable the Revolving Loan from which the requested Revolving Loan will be converted or continued;
(vi) the requested date of such Borrowing, conversion or continuation, which shall be a Business
Day;
(vii) if the Company is requesting a new Borrowing, the location and number of the bank account
of the applicable Borrower to which funds are to be disbursed;
(viii) in the case of a Borrowing in Dollars, whether such Borrowing is to be a Base Rate
Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing; and
(ix) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the initial Interest Period to be applicable
thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period.”
If the Company fails to specify a Type of Revolving Loan in a Revolving Loan Notice or if the Company fails to give a timely notice requesting a conversion or continuation, then the applicable Revolving Loans shall be
made or continued as, or converted to, Base Rate Loans (after converting, if necessary, the Borrowing into Dollars using the applicable Exchange Rate in effect on such date). Any such automatic conversion shall be effective as of the last day of the
Interest Period then in effect with respect to the applicable Eurocurrency Rate Loans. If the Company requests a Borrowing of, conversion to, or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans in any such Revolving Loan Notice, but fails to specify an
Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month.
(c) Following receipt of a Revolving Loan Notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of its
Pro Rata Share of the applicable Revolving Loans, and if no timely notice of a conversion or continuation is provided by the Company, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the details of any automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans
described in the preceding subsection. Each Lender shall make the amount of its Revolving Loan available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 2:00 p.m., New York time, on the
Business Day specified in the applicable Revolving Loan Notice. Each Lender may, at its option, make any Revolving Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Revolving Loan; provided that any
exercise of such option shall not affect in any manner the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Revolving Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (and,
if such Borrowing is the initial Credit Extension, Section 4.01), the Administrative Agent shall, by no later than 3:00 p.m., New York time, make all funds so received available to the applicable Borrower in like funds as received by the
Administrative Agent either by (i) crediting the account of the applicable Borrower on the books of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. with the amount of such funds or (ii) wire transfer of such funds, in each case in accordance with instructions provided to
the Administrative Agent by the Company.
35
(d) Except as otherwise provided herein, a Eurocurrency Rate Loan may be continued or converted only on the last
day of the Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Rate Loan. During the existence of a Default or Event of Default, no Loans may be requested as, converted to or continued as Eurocurrency Rate Loans without the consent of the Required Lenders, and
the Required Lenders may demand that any or all of the then outstanding Eurocurrency Rate Loans be converted to Base Rate Loans at the end of the respective Interest Periods related to such Loans.
(e) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Company and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to
any Eurocurrency Rate Loan upon determination of such interest rate. The determination of the Eurocurrency Rate by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.
(f) After giving effect to all Borrowings, all conversions of Revolving Loans from one Type to the other, and all
continuations of Revolving Loans as the same Type, there shall not be more than twelve Interest Periods in effect with respect to Eurocurrency Rate Loans.
2.03 Letters of Credit.
(a) The Letter of Credit Commitment.
(i) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (A) each L/C Issuer agrees, in
reliance upon the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Section 2.03, (1) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date until the Letter of Credit Subfacility Expiration Date, to issue Letters of
Credit denominated in Dollars for the account of any Borrower, and to amend or renew Letters of Credit previously issued by it, in accordance with subsection (b) below, and (2) to honor drafts under the Letters of Credit in accordance with their
terms; and (B) the Lenders severally agree to participate in Letters of Credit issued for the account of any Borrower; provided that no L/C Issuer shall be obligated to make any L/C Credit Extension with respect to any Letter of Credit, and
no Lender shall be obligated to participate in, any Letter of Credit if as of the date of such L/C Credit Extension, (1) the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure would exceed the Aggregate Commitments, (2) the Revolving Credit Exposure of any Lender
would exceed such Lender’s Commitment, (3) the L/C Exposure would exceed the L/C Sublimit or (4) the aggregate face amount of all Letters of Credit issued and then outstanding by such L/C Issuer would exceed such L/C Issuer’s Applicable LC Sublimit.
Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Borrower’s ability to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and accordingly the Borrowers may, during the foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit to
replace Letters of Credit that have expired or that have been drawn upon and reimbursed.
(ii) No L/C Issuer shall be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if:
36
(A) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms
purport to enjoin or restrain such L/C Issuer from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Law applicable to such L/C Issuer or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over
such L/C Issuer shall prohibit, or request that such L/C Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such L/C Issuer with respect to such Letter of Credit any
restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such L/C Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon such L/C Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on
the Closing Date and which such L/C Issuer in good xxxxx xxxxx material to it;
(B) subject to Section 2.03(b)(iii), the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit
would occur more than twelve months after the date of issuance or last renewal, unless the Required Lenders have approved such expiry date;
(C) the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur after the Letter of Credit
Subfacility Expiration Date, unless all Lenders have approved such expiry date;
(D) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of such L/C Issuer;
or
(E) such Letter of Credit is in a face amount less than $100,000, in the case of a commercial
Letter of Credit, or $500,000, in the case of any other type of Letter of Credit, or is to be denominated in a currency other than Dollars.
(iii) No L/C Issuer shall be under any obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if (A) such L/C
Issuer would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (B) the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to such Letter of Credit.
(b) Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit; Evergreen Letters of Credit.
(i) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of
the Company delivered to the applicable L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in the form of a Letter of Credit Application, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Company. Such Letter of Credit Application
must be received by the applicable L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., New York time, at least two Business Days (or such later date and time as the applicable L/C Issuer may agree in a particular instance in its sole
discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be. In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the
applicable L/C Issuer: (A) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (B) the name of the account party (which shall be a Borrower) and the amount thereof; (C) the expiry date thereof; (D) the name
and address of the beneficiary thereof; (E) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (F) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; and (G) such
other matters as such L/C Issuer may require. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the applicable L/C Issuer (A) the Letter
of Credit to be amended; (B) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (C) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (D) such other matters as such L/C Issuer may require.
37
(ii) Promptly after its receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, but in any event no later
than two Business Days prior to the proposed issuance date, the applicable L/C Issuer will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application from
the Company and, if not, the applicable L/C Issuer will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Upon receipt by the applicable L/C Issuer of confirmation from the Administrative Agent that the requested issuance or amendment is
permitted in accordance with the terms hereof, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the applicable L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of any Borrower or enter into the applicable amendment,
as the case may be, in each case in accordance with such L/C Issuer’s usual and customary business practices. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees
to, purchase from the applicable L/C Issuer a participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share times the amount of such Letter of Credit. In addition and without limiting the foregoing, on the
Closing Date, each Lender shall be deemed to have purchased a participation in each Existing Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share times the amount of such Existing Letter of Credit.
(iii) If the Company so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, any L/C Issuer
may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic renewal provisions (each, an “Evergreen Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Evergreen Letter of Credit must permit such L/C Issuer to
prevent any such renewal at least once in each twelve‑month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Nonrenewal Notice Date”) in each
such twelve‑month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued and have a final expiry date that is not later than the Letter of Credit Subfacility Expiration Date. Unless otherwise directed by such L/C Issuer, the Company
shall not be required to make a specific request to such L/C Issuer for any such renewal. Once an Evergreen Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) such L/C Issuer to permit the renewal
of such Letter of Credit at any time to a date not later than the Letter of Credit Subfacility Expiration Date; provided, however, that no L/C Issuer shall permit any such renewal if (A) such L/C Issuer would have no obligation at
such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its renewed form under the terms hereof, or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) at least five (5) Business Days prior to the Nonrenewal Notice Date (1) from the
Administrative Agent that the Required Lenders have elected not to permit such renewal or (2) from the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Company that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.02 is not then
satisfied. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no L/C Issuer shall have any obligation to permit the renewal of any Evergreen Letter of Credit at any time.
38
(iv) Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit
to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the applicable L/C Issuer will also deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment.
(c) Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations.
(i) Upon any request for drawing under any Letter of Credit, the applicable L/C Issuer shall,
within the time allowed by applicable law or the specific terms of such Letter of Credit following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under such Letter of Credit. Such L/C Issuer shall promptly
after such examination notify the Company and the Administrative Agent thereof. Not later than 1:00 p.m., New York time, on the date of any payment by the applicable L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit (each such date, an “Honor Date”), the
L/C Account Party shall reimburse such L/C Issuer through the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing. If such L/C Account Party or the Company fails to so reimburse such L/C Issuer by such time, the Administrative
Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (the “Unreimbursed Amount”), and such Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof. In such event, the Company shall be deemed to have requested a Revolving
Borrowing of Base Rate Loans to be disbursed on the Honor Date for which the L/C Account Party shall be the Borrower and in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.02 for
the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Aggregate Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (other than the delivery of a Revolving Loan Notice). Any notice given by
any L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)(i) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness
or binding effect of such notice.
39
(ii) Each Lender (including the Lender acting as L/C Issuer) shall upon any notice pursuant to
Section 2.03(c)(i) make funds available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable L/C Issuer at the Administrative Agent’s Office in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 3:00 p.m.,
New York time, on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of Section 2.03(c)(iii), each Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Loan to
the L/C Account Party in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the applicable L/C Issuer.
(iii) With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a Revolving
Borrowing of Base Rate Loans because the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, the L/C Account Party shall be deemed to have incurred from the applicable L/C Issuer an L/C Borrowing in the amount of
the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at a rate equal to the Default Rate that would be applicable to Base Rate Loans. In such
event, each Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C
Advance from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.03.
(iv) Until a Lender funds its Revolving Loan or L/C Advance pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)
to reimburse any L/C Issuer for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such amount shall be solely for the account of such L/C Issuer.
(v) Each Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans or L/C Advances to reimburse any L/C
Issuer for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section 2.03(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any set‑off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or
other right which such Lender may have against such L/C Issuer, the Borrowers or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or Event of Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition
including, without limitation, the existence (or alleged existence) of any Material Adverse Effect, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. Any such reimbursement shall not relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the L/C Account Party
or the Company to reimburse any L/C Issuer for the amount of any payment made by such L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein.
40
(vi) If any Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of any
L/C Issuer any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(c) by the time specified in Section 2.03(c)(ii), such L/C Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting
through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to such L/C Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the NYFRB
Rate from time to time in effect. A certificate of such L/C Issuer submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (vi) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(d) Repayment of Participations.
(i) At any time after any L/C Issuer has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has
received from any Lender such Lender’s funding in respect of the Base Rate Loan or an L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with Section 2.03(c), if the Administrative Agent receives for the account of such L/C Issuer any
payment related to such Letter of Credit (whether directly from the L/C Account Party, the Company or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), or any payment of interest thereon, the
Administrative Agent will distribute to such Lender its Pro Rata Share thereof in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent.
(ii) If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of any L/C Issuer
pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) is required to be returned, each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such L/C Issuer its Pro Rata Share thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon
from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the NYFRB Rate from time to time in effect.
(e) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the L/C Account Party or the Company to reimburse the
applicable L/C Issuer for each drawing under each Letter of Credit, and to repay each L/C Borrowing and each drawing under a Letter of Credit that is refinanced by a Borrowing of Revolving Loans, shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and
shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following:
(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any
other agreement or instrument relating thereto;
41
(ii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, set‑off, defense or other right that any Borrower
may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), any L/C Issuer or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement,
the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction;
(iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Letter of Credit
proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing
under such Letter of Credit;
(iv) any payment by any L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft
or certificate that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by any L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor‑in‑possession, assignee for the benefit of
creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law; or
(v) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the
foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Borrower.
The Company shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with the Company’s instructions or
other irregularity, the Company will promptly notify the applicable L/C Issuer. The Borrowers shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the applicable L/C Issuer and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid.
(f) Role of L/C Issuer. Each Lender and each Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of
Credit, no L/C Issuer shall have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such
document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. No Agent‑Related Person nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of any L/C Issuer shall be liable to any Lender for (i) any action taken
or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct or (iii) the due execution,
effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Letter of Credit Application. The Borrowers hereby assume all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to
the use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude any Borrower from pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or
under any other agreement. No Agent‑Related Person, nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of any L/C Issuer, shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (v) of Section
2.03(e); provided, however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, a Borrower may have a claim against the applicable L/C Issuer, and the applicable L/C Issuer may be liable to a Borrower to the extent,
but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to special, indirect, consequential, punitive or exemplary, damages suffered by such Borrower which such Borrower proves (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final nonappealable
judgment) were caused by such L/C Issuer’s willful misconduct or gross negligence or such L/C Issuer’s unlawful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly
complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, each L/C Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation,
regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and no L/C Issuer shall be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or
benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason.
42
(g) Cash Collateral. Upon the request of the Administrative Agent, (i) if any L/C Issuer has honored any
full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in an L/C Borrowing that has not been converted into a Borrowing under the terms hereof or (ii) if, as of the Letter of Credit Subfacility Expiration Date, any
Letter of Credit may for any reason remain outstanding and partially or wholly undrawn, the Borrowers shall immediately Cash Collateralize the then Outstanding Amount of all L/C Exposure (in an amount equal to such Outstanding Amount).
(h) Applicability of ISP98. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the applicable L/C Issuer and the Borrower
when a Letter of Credit is issued and subject to applicable laws, performance under Letters of Credit by such L/C Issuer, its correspondents, and the beneficiaries thereof will be governed by the rules of the “International Standby Practices 1998”
(ISP98) (or such later revision as may be published by the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice on any date any Letter of Credit may be issued), and to the extent not inconsistent therewith, the governing law of this Agreement set
forth in Section 10.16.
(i) Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrowers shall pay in Dollars to the Administrative Agent for the account
of each Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share a letter of credit fee equal to the Applicable Rate for Letters of Credit multiplied by the actual daily maximum amount available to be drawn under all outstanding Letters of Credit. Such fee
shall be due and payable on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, and on the Letter of Credit Subfacility Expiration Date. If
there is any change in such Applicable Rate during any quarter, the actual daily amount of each standby Letter of Credit shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate
was in effect.
(j) Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to L/C Issuers. The Company and the
respective L/C Account Party under a Letter of Credit jointly and severally shall pay directly to the applicable L/C Issuer for its own account a fronting fee in an amount (i) with respect to each commercial Letter of Credit issued by such L/C
Issuer, a per annum rate equal to 0.125% (or such lower fee as may be agreed by such L/C Issuer) of the amount of such Letter of Credit, due and payable upon the issuance thereof, and (ii) with respect to each standby Letter of Credit issued by such
L/C Issuer, a per annum rate equal to 0.125% (or such lower fee as may be agreed by such L/C Issuer) on the daily maximum amount available to be drawn thereunder, due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June,
September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, and on the Letter of Credit Subfacility Expiration Date. In addition, the Company and the respective L/C Account Party under a Letter
of Credit jointly and severally shall pay directly to the applicable L/C Issuer for its own account the customary issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of the applicable L/C Issuer relating
to letters of credit as from time to time in effect. Such fees and charges are due and payable on demand and are nonrefundable.
43
(k) Conflict with Letter of Credit Application. In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and
the terms of any Letter of Credit Application, the terms hereof shall control.
(l) Letters of Credit Issued for the Account of Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit
issued or outstanding hereunder supports any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Subsidiary Borrower, or states that a Subsidiary Borrower is the “account party,” “applicant,” “customer,” “instructing party,” or the like of or for such Letter
of Credit, and without derogating from any rights of the applicable L/C Issuer (whether arising by contract, at law, in equity or otherwise) against such Subsidiary in respect of such Letter of Credit, the Company (i) shall reimburse, indemnify and
compensate the applicable L/C Issuer hereunder for such Letter of Credit (including to reimburse any and all drawings thereunder) as if such Letter of Credit had been issued solely for the account of the Company and (ii) irrevocably waives any and
all defenses that might otherwise be available to it as a guarantor or surety of any or all of the obligations of such Subsidiary Borrower in respect of such Letter of Credit. The Company hereby acknowledges that the issuance of such Letters of
Credit for the Subsidiary Borrowers inures to the benefit of the Company, and that the Company’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Subsidiaries.
(m) L/C Issuer Agreements. Each L/C Issuer agrees that, unless otherwise requested by the
Administrative Agent, such L/C Issuer shall report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) on or prior to each Business Day on which such L/C Issuer expects to issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance,
amendment, renewal or extension, and the aggregate face amount of the Letters of Credit to be issued, amended, renewed or extended by it and outstanding after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension occurred (and whether the
amount thereof changed), it being understood that such L/C Issuer shall not permit any issuance, renewal, extension or amendment resulting in an increase in the amount of any Letter of Credit to occur without first obtaining written confirmation from
the Administrative Agent that it is then permitted under this Agreement, (ii) on each Business Day on which such L/C Issuer pays any amount in respect of one or more drawings under Letters of Credit, the date of such payment(s) and the amount of such
payment(s), (iii) on any Business Day on which the Company fails to reimburse any amount required to be reimbursed to such L/C Issuer on such day, the date of such failure and the amount and currency of such payment in respect of Letters of Credit
and (iv) on any other Business Day, such other information as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request.
44
2.04 Prepayments.
(a) The Borrowers may, upon notice from the Company to the Administrative Agent, at any time or from time to time
voluntarily prepay Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (i) such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent (A) not later than 11:00 a.m., New York time, three Business
Days prior to any date of prepayment of any Eurocurrency Rate Loans, and (B) not later than 9:00 a.m., New York time, on the date of prepayment of Base Rate Loans and Swingline Loans; (ii) any prepayment of Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be in a
principal amount of the Dollar Equivalent of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of the Dollar Equivalent of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (or the remaining outstanding amount of such Loan); (iii) any prepayment of Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal
amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof (or the remaining outstanding amount of such Loan); (iv) any prepayment of Swingline Loans shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Swingline
Loan pursuant to Section 2.14, or, in the case of (ii), (iii) and (iv) if a lesser amount, the remaining principal amount of the applicable Loans in any outstanding Borrowing. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such
prepayment and the Type(s) of Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans to be prepaid. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such prepayment. If such notice is
given by the Company, the Borrowers shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Any prepayment of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued
interest thereon, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05. Each such prepayment shall be applied to the Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans, as the case may be, of the applicable Lenders in accordance with their
respective Pro Rata Shares.
(b) If at any time (i) the Revolving Credit Exposure exceeds the Aggregate Commitments then in effect, other than
as a result of fluctuations in exchange rates, or (ii) solely as a result of fluctuations in currency exchange rates, the sum of the Revolving Loans and L/C Exposure denominated in Foreign Currency as of the most recent Calculation Date exceeds 105%
of the Foreign Currency Sublimit, the Borrowers shall immediately repay their respective Revolving Loans in an aggregate amount equal to such excess, together with all accrued and unpaid interest on such excess amount and any amounts due under Article
III.
2.05 Optional Reduction or Termination of Commitments. The Company may, at any time and from
time to time upon notice to the Administrative Agent, terminate the Commitments, or permanently reduce the Commitments to an amount not less than the Revolving Credit Exposure; provided that (a) the Borrowers shall not be obligated to pay any
amount as a penalty in connection with any such reduction or termination of the Commitments, except as required by Section 3.05 due to any repayment of Loans arising from such reduction or termination, (b) any such notice shall be received by
the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., New York time, three Business Days prior to the date of termination or reduction, and (c) any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or any whole multiple of $1,000,000
in excess thereof. Such notice of termination or reduction may be conditioned on the effectiveness of other credit facilities, an acquisition, investment, Change of Control or any other financing or sale transaction. The Administrative Agent shall
promptly notify the Lenders of any such notice of reduction or termination of the Commitments. Once reduced or terminated in accordance with this Section 2.05, the Commitments may not be increased except in accordance with Section 2.15.
Any reduction of the Commitments shall be applied to the Commitment of each Lender according to its Pro Rata Share. All commitment fees accrued until the effective date of any termination of the Commitments shall be paid on the effective date of such
termination. Any such reduction in the Commitments below the Swingline Sublimit, the L/C Sublimit and the Foreign Currency Sublimit shall result in a dollar for dollar reduction in the Swingline Commitment, the Swingline Sublimit, the L/C Sublimit and
the Foreign Currency Sublimit, as appropriate. The Commitment of a Lender may also be terminated under the provisions of Section 10.15.
45
2.06 Repayment of Loans.
(a) Each of the Borrowers shall repay to the Lenders on the Maturity Date the aggregate principal amount of all of
its Revolving Loans then outstanding.
(b) The Company shall repay each Swingline Borrowing on the earlier of (i) the last day of the Interest Period
applicable to such Swingline Borrowing and (ii) the Swingline Termination Date; provided that on each date that a Borrowing of a Revolving Loan is made, the Company shall repay all Swingline Loans then outstanding and the proceeds of any such
Borrowing shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to repay any Swingline Loans outstanding.
2.07 Interest.
(a) Subject to the provisions of subsection (b) below, (i) each Eurocurrency Rate Loan shall bear interest on the
outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate for Eurocurrency Rate Loans; (ii) each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest on the
outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate for Base Rate Loans; and (iii) each Swingline Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount
thereof at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate for Base Rate Loans, or such other rate as the Swingline Lender and the Company shall agree to, with respect thereto.
(b) If any Event of Default exists under clause (a) of Article VIII or after acceleration, each of the Borrowers
shall, and for all other Events of Default shall at the option of the Required Lenders, pay interest on the principal amount of all of its outstanding Obligations at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate
applicable thereto to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law. Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand.
(c) Interest on each Swingline Loan shall be payable on the maturity date of such Loan, which shall be the last day
of the Interest Period applicable thereto, and on the Swingline Termination Date.
(d) Interest on each Loan (other than a Swingline Loan) shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest
Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified herein. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding
under any Debtor Relief Law.
(e) For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada) and disclosure
thereunder, whenever any interest or any fee to be paid hereunder or in connection herewith by a Canadian Borrower is to be calculated on the basis of a 360-, 365- or 366-day year, the yearly rate of interest to which the rate used in such
calculation is equivalent is the rate so used multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the same is to be ascertained and divided by 360, 365 or 366, as applicable. The rates of interest under this Agreement are nominal
rates, and not effective rates or yields. The principle of deemed reinvestment of interest does not apply to any interest calculation under this Agreement.
46
(f) If any provision of this Agreement would oblige a Canadian Borrower to make any payment of interest or other
amount payable to any holder of Obligations in an amount or calculated at a rate which would be prohibited by law or would result in a receipt by that holder of Obligations of “interest” at a “criminal rate” (as such terms are construed under the Criminal Code (Canada)), then, notwithstanding such provision, such amount or rate shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as
would not be so prohibited by applicable law or so result in a receipt by that holder of Obligations of “interest” at a “criminal rate”, such adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary (but only to the extent necessary), as follows:
(i) first, by reducing the amount or rate of interest; and
(ii) thereafter, by reducing any fees, commissions, costs, expenses, premiums and other amounts
required to be paid which would constitute interest for purposes of section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada).
2.08 Fees. In addition to certain fees described in subsections (i) and (j) of Section
2.03:
(a) Commitment Fee. The Company shall pay in Dollars to the Administrative Agent for the account of each
Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share of all Commitments, an unused commitment fee, which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate set forth under the column “Applicable Rate for Commitment Fee” multiplied by the actual daily amount of the unused
Commitment of such Lender during the period from the Closing Date to the Maturity Date. For purposes of computing commitment fees with respect to the Commitments, the Commitment of each Lender shall be deemed used to the extent of the outstanding
Revolving Loans and L/C Exposure, but not Swingline Exposure, of such Lender. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the fifteenth day following the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing
on June 30, 2019 and on the Maturity Date. The commitment fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable
Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect. The commitment fee shall accrue at all times, including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Article IV is not met.
(b) Fee Letter. The Company shall pay in Dollars to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. the fees set forth in
the Fee Letter, for its own account in the amounts and at the times specified in the Fee Letter. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall be nonrefundable for any reason whatsoever.
(c) Lenders’ Upfront Fee. On the Closing Date, the Company shall pay in Dollars to the Administrative
Agent, for the account of the Lenders, the upfront fees previously agreed upon by the Company, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent as set forth in the Fee Letter. The upfront fee paid to each Lender is solely for its own account and is
nonrefundable for any reason whatsoever.
47
(d) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, during such period as a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, such
Defaulting Lender will not be entitled to commitment fees accruing with respect to its Commitment during such period pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section or letter of credit fees accruing during such period pursuant to Section 2.03(i)
(without prejudice to the rights of the Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders in respect of such fees), provided that (x) to the extent that a portion of the L/C Exposure of such Defaulting Lender is reallocated to the Non‑Defaulting Lenders
pursuant to Section 3.10, such fees that would have accrued for the benefit of such Defaulting Lender will instead accrue for the benefit of and be payable to such Non‑Defaulting Lenders, pro rata in
accordance with their respective Commitments, and (y) to the extent any portion of such L/C Exposure cannot be so reallocated, such fees will instead accrue for the benefit of and be payable to the applicable L/C Issuer. The pro rata payment provisions of Section 2.12 shall automatically be deemed adjusted to reflect the provisions of this subsection.
2.09 Computation of Interest and Fees. Interest on (i) Base Rate Loans that are based on the
Prime Rate and Swingline Loans shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be and (ii) Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Sterling shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 365 days, and in each case, payable
for the actual number of days elapsed. Computation of all other types of interest and fees shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days, except where market practice is on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), payable
for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan
or such portion is paid, provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall bear interest for one day.
2.10 Evidence of Debt.
(a) The Credit Extensions made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by
such Lender and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Credit Extensions made by
the Lenders to the Borrowers and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrowers hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the
Revolving Credit Exposure. The accounts and records maintained by the Administrative Agent shall be treated as part of the Register. In the event of any inconsistency between the Register and any Lender’s records, the records as in the Register
shall govern.
(b) In addition to the accounts and records referred to in subsection (a), each Lender and the Administrative Agent
shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records evidencing the purchases and sales by such Lender of participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans. The accounts and records maintained by the Administrative Agent
shall be treated as part of the Register. In the event of any inconsistency between the Register and any Lender’s records, the records as in the Register shall govern.
48
(c) This Agreement evidences the obligation of the Borrowers to repay the Loans and is being executed as a
“noteless” credit agreement. However, at the request of any Lender (including the Swingline Lender) at any time, the Borrowers agree that they will prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note for each Commitment of such Lender
payable to such Lender and its registered assigns and in a form approved by the Company and the Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment
permitted hereunder) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the payee named therein and its registered assigns.
2.11 Payments Generally.
(a) All payments to be made by the Borrowers shall be made in the applicable Agreed Currency without condition or
deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or set‑off. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrowers hereunder 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 2:00 p.m. on the date specified herein. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Pro Rata Share (or other applicable
share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after 2:00 p.m., New York time, shall be deemed received on the next succeeding
Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any Borrower does not, or is unable for any reason to, effect payment of a Loan to the Lenders in the Agreed Currency or if any Borrower shall default in the payment when
due of any payment in such Agreed Currency, the Lenders may, at their option, require such payment to be made to the Lenders in the Dollar Equivalent of such Agreed Currency determined in accordance with Section 10.22. With respect to any
amount due and payable in Agreed Currency other than Dollars, the Company shall, or shall cause the applicable Borrower to, hold the Lenders harmless from any losses, if any, that are incurred by the Lenders arising from any change in the value of
Dollars in relation to such Agreed Currency between the date such payment became due and the date of payment thereof (other than losses incurred by any Lender due to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Lender as determined by a court
of competent jurisdiction in a final non‑appealable order).
(b) Subject to the definition of “Interest Period,” if any payment to be made by the Borrowers shall come
due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.
(c) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all
amounts of principal, L/C Borrowings, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, to the Administrative Agent’s fees and reimbursable expenses (including Attorney Costs and amounts payable under Article
III) then due and payable pursuant to any of the Loan Documents; (ii) second, to all reimbursable expenses of the Lenders and all fees and reimbursable expenses of the L/C Issuers then due and payable pursuant to any of the Loan
Documents, pro rata to the Lenders and the L/C Issuers based on their respective pro rata shares of such fees and expenses; (iii) third, to interest and fees then due and payable hereunder, pro rata to the Lenders based on their respective
pro rata shares of such interest and fees; and (iv) fourth, to the payment of principal of the Loans and unreimbursed L/C Borrowings then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal
and unreimbursed L/C Borrowings then due to such parties.
49
(d) Unless the Company or any Lender has notified the Administrative Agent prior to the date any payment is
required to be made by it to the Administrative Agent hereunder, that the applicable Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the applicable Borrower, the Company or such
Lender, as the case may be, has timely made such payment and may (but shall not be so required to), in reliance thereon, make available a corresponding amount to the Person entitled thereto. If and to the extent that such payment was not in fact
made to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds, then:
(i) if the applicable Borrower failed to make such payment, each Lender shall forthwith on
demand repay to the Administrative Agent the portion of such assumed payment that was made available to such Lender in immediately available funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such amount was made
available by the Administrative Agent to such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in the applicable Agreed Currency in immediately available funds, at the greater of the NYFRB Rate as in effect from time to time or a
rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, including, without limitation, the Overnight Foreign Currency Rate in the case of loans denominated in a Foreign Currency, until the
second Business Day after such demand and thereafter at the greater of the Base Rate or a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation including, without limitation, the Overnight
Foreign Currency Rate in the case of loans denominated in a Foreign Currency; and
(ii) if any Lender failed to make such payment, such Lender shall forthwith on demand pay to
the Administrative Agent the amount thereof in the applicable Agreed Currency in immediately available funds, together with interest thereon for the period from the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the applicable
Borrower to the date such amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent (the “Compensation Period”) at the greater of the NYFRB Rate as in effect from time to time or a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking
industry rules on interbank compensation, including, without limitation, the Overnight Foreign Currency Rate in the case of loans denominated in a Foreign Currency, until the second Business Day after such demand and thereafter at the greater of the
Base Rate or a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation including, without limitation, the Overnight Foreign Currency Rate in the case of loans denominated in a Foreign Currency.
If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in the applicable Borrowing. If such Lender does not pay such amount within two Business Days after the Administrative Agent’s
demand therefor, the Administrative Agent may make a demand therefor upon the applicable Borrower, and the applicable Borrower shall pay such amount to the Administrative Agent, together with interest thereon for the Compensation Period at a rate per
annum equal to the rate of interest applicable to the applicable Borrowing. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment or to prejudice any rights which the Administrative Agent or any Borrower
may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.
50
A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (d) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.
(e) If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender as
provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and the conditions to the applicable Credit Extension set forth in Article IV are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall
return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.
(f) The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Revolving Loans and to fund participations in Letters of
Credit and Swingline Loans are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Revolving Loan or to fund any such participation 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 Revolving Loan or purchase its participation.
(g) Subject to Section 3.09, nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for
any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.
2.12 Sharing of Payments. If, other than as expressly provided elsewhere herein, any Lender
shall obtain on account of any Revolving Loans made by it, or the participations in L/C Exposure or Swingline Exposure held by it, any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set‑off, or otherwise) in excess of its
ratable share (or other share contemplated hereunder) thereof, such Lender shall immediately (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Revolving Loans made by them and/or such
subparticipations in the participations in L/C Exposure or Swingline Exposure held by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment in respect of such Loans or such participations, as the case may be, pro rata
with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender, such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded and each other Lender shall repay to the
purchasing Lender the purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from
the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. The Borrowers agree that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender may, to the fullest
extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set‑off, but subject to Section 10.09) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrowers in the amount of
such participation. The Administrative Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased under this Section 2.12 and will in each case notify the Lenders following any
such purchases or repayments. Each Lender that purchases a participation pursuant to this Section shall from and after such purchase have the right to give all notices, requests, demands, directions and other communications under this Agreement with
respect to the portion of the Obligations purchased to the same extent as though the purchasing Lender were the original owner of the Obligations purchased.
51
2.13 Swingline Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the
Swingline Lender may agree, but shall have no obligation, to make Swingline Loans in Dollars to the Company, from time to time from the Closing Date to the Swingline Termination Date, in an aggregate principal amount outstanding at any time not to
exceed the lesser of (a) the Swingline Commitment then in effect and (b) the difference between the Aggregate Commitments and the Dollar Equivalent of the sum of the Outstanding Amount of all Loans and L/C Exposure; provided, that the Swingline
Lender shall not be required to make a Swingline Loan to refinance an outstanding Swingline Loan. The Company shall be entitled to borrow, repay and reborrow Swingline Loans in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
2.14 Procedure for Swingline Borrowing; Etc.
(a) The Company shall give the Administrative Agent written notice of each Swingline Borrowing substantially in the
form of Exhibit B attached hereto (a “Swingline Notice”) prior to 2:00 p.m., New York time, on the requested date of each Swingline Borrowing. Each Swingline Notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify: (i) the principal amount of
such Swingline Loan, (ii) the date of such Swingline Loan (which shall be a Business Day) and (iii) the account of the Company to which the proceeds of such Swingline Loan should be credited. The Administrative Agent will promptly advise the
Swingline Lender of each Swingline Notice. Each Swingline Loan shall accrue interest at the Base Rate or any other interest rate as agreed between the Company and the Swingline Lender and shall have an Interest Period (which shall be a period
contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”) as agreed between the Company and the Swingline Lender. The aggregate principal amount of each Swingline Loan shall be not less than $100,000 or a larger multiple of $50,000, or such
other minimum amounts agreed to by the Swingline Lender and the Company. The Swingline Lender will make the proceeds of each Swingline Loan available to the Company in Dollars in immediately available funds at the account specified by the Company in
the applicable Swingline Notice not later than 3:00 p.m., New York time, on the requested date of such Swingline Loan.
(b) The Swingline Lender, at any time and from time to time in its sole discretion, may, on behalf of the Company
(which hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Swingline Lender to act on its behalf), give a Revolving Loan Notice to the Administrative Agent requesting the Lenders (including the Swingline Lender) to make Base Rate Loans in an amount equal
to the unpaid principal amount of any Swingline Loan. Each Lender will make the proceeds of its Base Rate Loan included in such Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender in accordance with Section
2.02, which will be used solely for the repayment of such Swingline Loan.
(c) If for any reason a Base Rate Loan may not be (as determined in the sole discretion of the Administrative
Agent), or is not, made in accordance with the foregoing provisions, then each Lender (other than the Swingline Lender) shall purchase an undivided participating interest in such Swingline Loan in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share thereof on the
date that such Base Rate Loan should have occurred. On the date of such required purchase, each Lender shall promptly transfer, in immediately available funds, the amount of its participating interest to the Administrative Agent for the account of
the Swingline Lender. If such Swingline Loan bears interest at a rate other than the Base Rate, such Swingline Loan shall automatically become a Base Rate Loan on the effective date of any such participation and interest shall become payable on
demand.
52
(d) Each Lender’s obligation to make a Base Rate Loan pursuant to Section 2.14(b) or to purchase the
participating interests pursuant to Section 2.14(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including without limitation (i) any set‑off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such
Lender or any other Person may have or claim against the Swingline Lender, the Company or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the existence of a Default or an Event of Default or the termination of any Lender’s Commitment, (iii) any
breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by the Company, the Administrative Agent or any Lender or (iv) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever including, without limitation, the existence (or alleged existence) of any
Material Adverse Effect, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. If such amount is not in fact made available to the Swingline Lender by any Lender, the Swingline Lender shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender,
together with accrued interest thereon for each day from the date of demand thereof (i) at the NYFRB Rate until the second Business Day after such demand and (ii) at the Base Rate at all times thereafter. Until such time as such Lender makes its
required payment, the Swingline Lender shall be deemed to continue to have outstanding Swingline Loans in the amount of the unpaid participation for all purposes of the Loan Documents. In addition, such Lender shall be deemed to have assigned any
and all payments made of principal and interest on its Loans and any other amounts due to it hereunder, to the Swingline Lender to fund the amount of such Lender’s participation interest in such Swingline Loans that such Lender failed to fund
pursuant to this Section, until such amount has been purchased in full.
2.15 Increase in Commitments; Additional Lenders.
(a) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, from time to time after the Closing Date, the
Company may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, propose to increase the Aggregate Commitments by an amount not to exceed $1,000,000,000 (the amount of any such increase, the “Additional Commitment Amount”), provided, however,
that at no time shall the Aggregate Commitments exceed $3,000,000,000. No Lender (or any successor thereto) shall have any obligation to increase its Commitment or its other obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and any
decision by a Lender to increase its Commitment shall be made in its sole discretion independently from any other Lender. The Company shall have no obligation to offer the right to participate in such increase to any or all of the existing Lenders.
Any Lender that fails to respond to such notice shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Commitment.
(b) In addition, the Company may designate another bank or other financial institution (which may be, but need not
be, one or more of the existing Lenders) which at the time agrees to, in the case of any such Person that is an existing Lender, increase its Commitment and in the case of any other such Person (an “Additional Lender”), become a party to this
Agreement; provided, however, that any new bank or financial institution must be acceptable to the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) and each LC Issuer (in its capacity as LC Issuer), which acceptance will
not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The sum of the increases in the Commitments of the existing Lenders pursuant to this subsection (b) plus the Commitments of the Additional Lenders shall not in the aggregate exceed the
unsubscribed amount of the Additional Commitment Amount.
53
(c) An increase in the aggregate amount of the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall become
effective upon the receipt by the Administrative Agent of a customary supplement or joinder in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) executed by the Company, and by each
Additional Lender and by each other Lender whose Commitment is to be increased, setting forth the new Commitments of such Lenders and setting forth the agreement of each Additional Lender to become a party to this Agreement and to be bound by all the
terms and provisions hereof, a certificate of the Company signed by a Responsible Officer, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, certifying that (x) at the time of, and immediately after giving effect to, any such
proposed increase, no Default or Event of Default shall exist, (y) all representations and warranties of the Borrowers contained in Article V (but excluding the representation set forth in Section 5.05(b)) shall be true and correct in
all material respects on and as of the date of increase, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier
date and (z) since June 29, 2018, there has been no change which has had or would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and such evidence of appropriate corporate authorization on the part of the Company with respect to the
increase in the Commitment and such customary opinions of counsel for the Company with respect to the increase in the Commitments as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request.
(d) Upon the acceptance of any such agreement by the Administrative Agent, each Additional Lender shall
automatically be deemed a Lender for all purposes hereunder, the Aggregate Commitments shall automatically be increased by the amount of the Commitments added through such agreement and Schedule 2.01 shall automatically be deemed amended to
reflect the Commitments of all Lenders after giving effect to the addition of such Commitments.
(e) Upon any increase in the aggregate amount of the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.15 that is not
pro rata among all Lenders, (i) within five Business Days, in the case of any Base Rate Loans then outstanding, and at the end of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, in the case of any Eurocurrency Rate Loans then outstanding, the
Borrowers shall prepay their respective Loans in their entirety and, to the extent the Company elects to do so and subject to the conditions specified in Article IV, the Borrowers shall reborrow Loans from the Lenders in proportion to their
respective Commitments after giving effect to such increase, until such time as all outstanding Loans are held by the Lenders in proportion to their respective Commitments after giving effect to such increase and (ii) effective upon such increase,
the amount of the participations held by each Lender in each Letter of Credit then outstanding shall automatically be adjusted such that, after giving effect to such adjustments, the Lenders shall hold participations in each such Letter of Credit in
proportion to their respective Commitments.
54
2.16 Subsidiary Borrowers.
(a) Upon not less than five (5) Business Days’ notice, any Eligible Restricted Subsidiary may become a Subsidiary
Borrower hereunder by delivering to the Administrative Agent a supplement or joinder in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent executed by such Restricted Subsidiary and the Company (a “Subsidiary Joinder Agreement”),
setting forth the agreement of such Restricted Subsidiary to become a party to this Agreement as a Subsidiary Borrower and to be bound by all the terms and provisions hereof, and such evidence of appropriate corporate authorization on the part of
such Eligible Restricted Subsidiary and such opinions of counsel for such Eligible Restricted Subsidiary as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request; provided, however, it shall be a condition to the effectiveness of such
Eligible Restricted Subsidiary becoming a Subsidiary Borrower hereunder that after giving effect to such Subsidiary Joinder Agreement, (i) the representations and warranties of the Borrowers contained in Article V (but excluding the
representation set forth in Section 5.05(b)) or in any other Loan Document shall be true and correct in all material respects, (ii) no Default or Event of Default shall exist, or would result therefrom and (iii) if such joinder obligates the
Administrative Agent or any Lender to comply with “know your customer” or similar identification procedures in circumstances where the necessary information is not already available to it, the Company shall have supplied such documentation and other
evidence as is reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in order for the Administrative Agent or such Lender to carry out and be satisfied it has complied with the results of all necessary “know your customer” or other similar
checks under all applicable laws and regulations (including, without limitation, delivery of a Beneficial Ownership Certification in relation to such Subsidiary Borrower), and such compliance has been confirmed.
(b) The eligibility of any Subsidiary Borrower to continue to borrow under this Agreement shall terminate when the
Administrative Agent receives an election to terminate an Eligible Restricted Subsidiary’s status as a Subsidiary Borrower, in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (the “Subsidiary Termination Agreement”). The delivery
of a Subsidiary Termination Agreement shall not affect any obligation of such Subsidiary Borrower hereunder incurred prior to delivery of such Subsidiary Termination Agreement.
(c) Each Subsidiary Joinder Agreement delivered to the Administrative Agent shall be duly executed on behalf of the
relevant Eligible Restricted Subsidiary and the Company, and each Subsidiary Termination Agreement delivered to the Administrative Agent shall be duly executed on behalf of the Company, in such number of copies as the Administrative Agent may
request. The Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice to the Lenders and the L/C Issuers of its receipt of any Subsidiary Joinder Agreement or Subsidiary Termination Agreement and provide a copy of each such Subsidiary Joinder Agreement and
Subsidiary Termination Agreement to each L/C Issuer and each Lender.
(d) If the Company shall deliver a Subsidiary Joinder Agreement with respect to any Subsidiary not organized under
the laws of the United States or any State thereof, any Lender may, with notice to the Administrative Agent and the Company, make any Loan available to such Subsidiary by causing an Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that
any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of such Subsidiary to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
(e) If (i) the Company delivers a Subsidiary Termination Agreement with respect to a Subsidiary Borrower, (ii) a
Subsidiary Borrower at any time ceases to be an Eligible Restricted Subsidiary or (iii) an Event of Default specified in clause (f) of Article VIII occurs with respect to a Subsidiary Borrower:
55
(x) the Lenders will have no obligation to make any further Loans to such Subsidiary Borrower, and
(y) the Company will inform each Lender of the relevant event described in clause (ii) or (iii) of this subsection (e) within three Business Days after such event occurs
and:
(1) to the extent the relevant event is an event described in clause (ii) of this subsection (e) resulting from the Company no longer owning, directly or indirectly, more
than 51% of the ordinary voting and economic power of such Subsidiary Borrower, then within three Business Days after such event, the Company will expressly assume the outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure of such Subsidiary Borrower (including accrued
and unpaid interest and fees thereon) pursuant to documentation in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent; and
(2) to the extent the relevant event is any other event described in clauses (i), (ii), or (iii) of this subsection (e), then within 30 days after being requested to do so by
any Lender, the Company will expressly assume the outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure of such Subsidiary Borrower (including accrued and unpaid interest and fees thereon) pursuant to documentation in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the
Administrative Agent.
2.17 Extension of Commitment Termination Date.
(a) Subject to subclause (c), from time to time after the first anniversary of the Closing Date, but at least 45
days prior to the scheduled Maturity Date then in effect, the Borrowers may, by written notice from the Company to the Administrative Agent, request that the scheduled Maturity Date then in effect be extended by one calendar year, effective as of a
date selected by the Company (the “Extension Effective Date”); provided, that (i) the Company may make only one such request in any calendar year and no more than two such requests during the term of this Agreement and (ii) the
Extension Effective Date shall be at least 30 days, but not more than 90 days, after the date such extension request is received by the Administrative Agent (the “Extension Request Date”). Upon receipt of the extension request, the
Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of such request. If a Lender agrees, in its sole discretion, to so extend the Maturity Date applicable to its Commitment (an “Extending Lender”), it shall deliver to the Administrative
Agent a written notice of its agreement to do so no later than 15 days after the Extension Request Date (or such later date to which the Company and the Administrative Agent shall agree), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly thereafter notify
the Company of such Extending Lender’s agreement to extend the Commitment Termination Date applicable to such Lender’s Commitment and Revolving Loans (and such agreement shall be irrevocable until the Extension Effective Date). Subject to Section
2.17(b), the Commitment of any Lender that fails to accept or respond to the Borrowers’ request for extension of the Maturity Date (a “Declining Lender”) shall be terminated on the Maturity Date then in effect for such Lender (without regard
to any extension by other Lenders) and on such Maturity Date the Borrowers shall pay in full the unpaid principal amount of all Revolving Loans owing to such Declining Lender, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all accrued and
unpaid fees owing to such Declining Lender under this Agreement to the date of such payment of principal and all other amounts due to such Declining Lender under this Agreement.
56
(b) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Extending Lender of the aggregate Commitments of the
Declining Lenders. Upon receipt by the Extending Lenders of notice of the Declining Lenders (the “Increase Request Date”), each Extending Lender may offer to increase its respective Commitment by an amount not to exceed the aggregate amount
of the Declining Lenders’ Commitments, and such Extending Lender shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a notice of its offer to so increase its Commitment no later than 15 days after the Increase Request Date (or such later date to which the
Company and the Administrative Agent shall agree), and such offer shall be irrevocable until the Extension Effective Date. To the extent the aggregate amount of additional Commitments that the Extending Lenders offer pursuant to the preceding
sentence exceeds the aggregate amount of the Declining Lenders’ Commitments, such additional Commitments shall be reduced on a pro rata basis. To the extent the aggregate amount of Commitments that the Extending Lenders have so offered to extend is
less than the aggregate amount of Commitments that the Company has so requested to be extended, the Company shall have the right to seek additional Commitments from other Persons. Once the Company has obtained offers to provide the full amount of
any Declining Lender’s Commitments (whether from Extending Lenders or other Persons), the Company shall have the right but not the obligation to require any Declining Lender to (and any such Declining Lender shall) assign in full its rights and
obligations (including all Commitments and Revolving Loans) under this Agreement to one or more banks or other financial institutions (which may be, but need not be, one or more of the Extending Lenders) which at the time agree to, in the case of any
such Person that is an Extending Lender, increase its Commitment and in the case of any other such Person (a “New Lender”) become a party to this Agreement; provided that (i) such assignment is otherwise in compliance with Section
10.07, (ii) such Declining Lender receives payment in full of the unpaid principal amount of all Revolving Loans owing to such Declining Lender, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all fees accrued and unpaid under this
Agreement to the date of such payment of principal and all other amounts due to such Declining Lender under this Agreement and (iii) any such assignment shall be effective on the date on or before such Extension Effective Date as may be specified by
the Company and agreed to by the respective New Lenders and Extending Lenders, as the case may be, and the Administrative Agent.
(c) If, but only if, Extending Lenders and New Lenders, as the case may be, have agreed to provide Commitments in
an aggregate amount equal to greater than 50% of the aggregate amount of the Commitments outstanding immediately prior to such Extension Effective Date and the conditions precedent in Section 4.01 ((x) other than 4.01(a)(vi) and (y) with respect to
4.01(a)(ix) no additional types of documentation shall be required as compared to the Closing Date) are met as of the Extension Effective Date, the Maturity Date in effect with respect to the Commitments of such Extending Lenders and New Lenders (but
not other Lenders that do not elect to extend) shall be extended by one calendar year.
57
ARTICLE III.
TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY
3.01 Taxes.
(a) For purposes of this Section 3.01, the term “Lender” includes any L/C Issuer and the term “applicable
law” includes FATCA.
(b) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan
Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes; provided that if any applicable law requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall make such deduction
or withholding and 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 such Borrower shall be increased as necessary
so that after making all required deductions and withholdings (including deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient shall receive an amount equal to the sum it would have received
had no such deductions or withholdings been made.
(c) In addition, without limiting the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section but without duplication, the
Borrowers 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, including without limitation, Florida
documentary stamp tax in respect of any promissory note provided to a requesting Lender pursuant to Section 2.10(c).
(d) The Borrowers shall, without duplication, indemnify each Recipient, within thirty (30) Business Days after
written demand therefor, for the full amount of any (i) Indemnified Taxes paid or payable by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to
amounts payable under this Section) and (ii) 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. In the event that
such Indemnified Taxes referred to in clause (i) shall exceed $100,000, the Recipient subject to such Indemnified Taxes shall (x) notify the Company of such imposition or assertion and (y) the Company, solely at its own expense, may cause such
Recipient to contest the imposition or assertion of such Indemnified Taxes as to which there exists no reasonable basis. The respective Borrowers shall fully indemnify such Recipient for all costs (including any liabilities, penalties, interest and
expenses) incurred by such Recipient in connection with any such contest. Nothing contained in this subsection (A) obligates the Administrative Agent or any Lender (or any of their respective Affiliates) to disclose to any Borrower any of its tax
records or materials relating thereto, (B) shall interfere with the right of the Administrative Agent or any Lender (or any of their respective Affiliates) to arrange its taxation and financial affairs in whatever manner it deems appropriate, (C)
obligates the Administrative Agent or any Lender (or any of their respective Affiliates) to claim relief from taxation on its corporate profits or, subject to clause (y) above, to claim any credits, deductions or other relief otherwise available to
it with respect to its tax affairs, or (D) obligates such Lender or Administrative Agent, in its reasonable determination, to take any action that would subject it to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or materially prejudice its legal or
commercial position. Payment under this subsection (d) shall be made within 30 days after the date the Lender or the Administrative Agent makes a written demand therefor. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the
Company by the applicable Recipient (with a copy to the Administrative Agent in the case of a Recipient other than the Administrative Agent), setting forth in reasonable detail the nature and amount of such Indemnified Taxes, shall be conclusive,
absent manifest error.
58
(e) As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes pursuant to this Section 3.01 by any Borrower to a
Governmental Authority, such Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an 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) Tax Forms.
(i) Any Recipient that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative
Agent, on or prior to the date on which such Recipient becomes a Recipient under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Company or the Administrative Agent), duly executed copies of IRS Form W‑9
certifying, to the extent such Recipient is legally entitled to do so, that such Recipient is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax.
(ii) Any Recipient that is a Foreign Person and that is entitled to an exemption from or
reduction of withholding tax under the Code or any treaty to which the United States is a party with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by applicable
law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Recipient that is a Foreign Person shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, (w) on or prior to the date such Recipient becomes a Recipient under this Agreement, (x) on or prior to
the date on which any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete, (y) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form or certification previously delivered by it pursuant to this subsection, and (z) from time
to time upon the reasonable request by the Company or the Administrative Agent, deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the
following is applicable:
(A) if such Recipient is claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the
United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, duly completed and executed copies of IRS Form W‑8BEN, IRS Form W‑8BEN‑E or any successor form thereto, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S.
federal withholding tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty, and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, duly completed and executed copies of IRS Form W‑8BEN, IRS Form W‑8BEN‑E or any successor
form thereto, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;
59
(B) duly completed and executed copies of IRS Form W‑8ECI, or any successor form thereto,
certifying that the payments received by such Recipient are effectively connected with such Recipient’s conduct of a trade or business in the United States;
(C) if such Recipient is claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under
Section 871(h) or Section 881(c) of the Code, duly completed and executed copies of IRS Form W‑8BEN, IRS Form W‑8BEN‑E or any successor form thereto, together with a certificate, substantially in the form of Exhibit F‑1 (a “U.S. Tax
Compliance Certificate”) upon which such Recipient certifies that (1) such Recipient is not a bank for purposes of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (2) such Recipient is not a 10% shareholder of any Borrower within the meaning of Section
871(h)(3)(B) or Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, (3) such Recipient is not a controlled foreign corporation that is related to any Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code, and (4) the interest payments in question are not
effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business conducted by such Recipient; or
(D) if such Recipient is not the beneficial owner of any amount payable to such Recipient
pursuant to any Loan Document, duly completed and executed copies of IRS Form W‑8IMY, or any successor form thereto, accompanied by IRS Form W‑9, IRS Form W‑8ECI, IRS Form W‑8BEN, IRS Form W‑8BEN‑E or any successor form thereto, a U.S. Tax Compliance
Certificate, substantially in the form of Exhibit F‑2 or Exhibit F‑3, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if such Recipient is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners
of such Recipient are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Recipient may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F‑4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner.
(iii) Each Recipient shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the
Company and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent) on or prior to the date on which such Recipient becomes a Recipient under this Agreement (and from time to time
thereafter upon the reasonable request of any Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed,
together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law or form instructions to permit any Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.
(iv) Each Recipient agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered under this
Section 3.01 expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect and such Recipient is not legally entitled to provide an updated form or certification, it shall promptly notify the Company and the Administrative Agent of its inability to update
such form or certification.
60
(g) If a payment made to a Recipient under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax
imposed by FATCA if such Recipient were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Recipient shall deliver to the Company and the
Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i)
of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine that such
Recipient has complied with such Recipient’s obligations under FATCA, and (if applicable) to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 3.01(g), “FATCA” shall include any amendments
made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
(h) If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any
Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 3.01 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.01), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of
indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant
Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (h) (plus any penalties, interest or
other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will
the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (h) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been
in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall
not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
3.02 Illegality. If any Change in Law shall, after the date hereof, make it unlawful, or if
any Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Eurocurrency Rate Loans or to fund any Loans in any Foreign Currency, or if any such circumstance materially restricts the
authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the applicable offshore Dollar market, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurocurrency Rate, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Company
through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue affected Eurocurrency Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to affected Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative
Agent and the Company that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrowers shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert
all Eurocurrency Rate Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans in Dollars, either on the last day of the Interest Period thereof, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender
may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrowers shall also pay interest on the amount so prepaid or converted. Each Lender agrees to designate a different Lending Office if
such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender.
61
3.03 Inability to Determine Rates.
(a) If the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest
error) in connection with any request for a Eurocurrency Rate Loan or a conversion to or continuation thereof that (i) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the applicable offshore Dollar market for the applicable amount and Interest
Period of such Eurocurrency Rate Loan, (ii) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurocurrency Rate or LIBOR, as applicable (including, without limitation, because the LIBOR Screen Rate is not available or published on a
current basis), for such Eurocurrency Rate Loan, or (iii) the Eurocurrency Rate or LIBOR, as applicable, for such Eurocurrency Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of funding or maintaining such Eurocurrency Rate
Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly, but in any event not later than the first day of the Interest Period related to such Loan (or the conversion or continuation thereof, as the case may be), notify the Company and all Lenders. Thereafter,
the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Company may revoke any pending request for a Revolving Borrowing,
conversion or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Revolving Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.
(b) If at any time the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest
error) that (i) the circumstances set forth in Section 3.03(a)(ii) have arisen and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary or (ii) the circumstances set forth in Section 3.03(a)(ii) have not arisen but either (w) the
supervisor for the administrator of the LIBOR Screen Rate has made a public statement that the administrator of the LIBOR Screen Rate is insolvent (and there is no successor administrator that will continue publication of the LIBOR Screen Rate), (x)
the administrator of the LIBOR Screen Rate has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the LIBOR Screen Rate will permanently or indefinitely cease to be published by it (and there is no successor administrator that will
continue publication of the LIBOR Screen Rate), (y) the supervisor for the administrator of the LIBOR Screen Rate has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the LIBOR Screen Rate will permanently or indefinitely cease to be
published or (z) the supervisor for the administrator of the LIBOR Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the LIBOR Screen Rate may
no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans, then the Administrative Agent and the Company shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest to LIBOR that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for
determining a rate of interest for syndicated loans in the United States at such time, and shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes (including, without limitation, the
modification or replacement of clause (c) set forth in the definition of “Base Rate”) to this Agreement as may be applicable (but for the avoidance of doubt, such related changes shall not include a reduction of the Applicable Rate); provided
that, if such alternate rate of interest as so determined would be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 10.01, such amendment shall
become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement so long as the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five (5) Business Days of the date notice of such alternate rate of interest is provided
to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that such Required Lenders object to such amendment. Until an alternate rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with this Section 3.03(b) (but, (A) in the case of
the circumstances described in clause (ii)(w), clause (ii)(x) or clause (ii)(y) of the first sentence of this Section 3.03(b), only to the extent the LIBOR Screen Rate for such Interest Period is not available or published at such time on a
current basis and (B) in the case of the circumstances described in clause (ii)(z) of the first sentence of this Section 3.03(b), only to the extent the specific date referred to in such clause has not occurred), the Borrowers shall, upon
demand from the Administrative Agent, prepay or, if applicable, convert all such outstanding Eurocurrency Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans in Dollars immediately. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrowers shall also pay interest on the
amount so prepaid or converted.
62
3.04 Increased Cost and Reduced Return; Capital Adequacy Reserves on Eurocurrency Rate Loans.
(a) If any Lender determines that as a result of a Change in Law there shall be any increase in the cost to such
Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding, converting, continuing into or maintaining Eurocurrency Rate Loans or (as the case may be) issuing or participating in Letters of Credit, a reduction in the amount received or receivable by such Lender
in connection with any of the foregoing (excluding for purposes of this subsection (a) any such increased costs or reduction in amount resulting from (i) Indemnified Taxes (as to which Section 3.01 shall govern), (ii) Excluded Taxes, and
(iii) reserve requirements contemplated by Section 3.04(c)), then from time to time upon demand of such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), the Borrowers shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will
compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction.
(b) If any Lender or L/C Issuer determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or L/C Issuer or any Lending
Office of such Lender or such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s Parent Company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements, has the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or
L/C Issuer’s Parent Company, if any, as a consequence of such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s Parent Company would have achieved but for such Change
in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s Parent Company with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity), then from time to time upon demand of such Lender (with a copy
of such demand to the Administrative Agent), the Company shall, or shall cause the applicable Borrower to, pay to such Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender or L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or
L/C Issuer’s Parent Company for any such reduction suffered with respect to its Obligations.
63
(c) The Company shall, or shall cause the applicable Borrower to, pay to each Lender, as long as such Lender shall
be required pursuant to regulations issued by any central bank, monetary authority, the Board, the European Central Bank or any other Governmental Authority of the United States or of the jurisdiction of such currency or any jurisdiction in which
Loans in such currency are made to which banks in such jurisdiction are subject for any category of deposits or liabilities customarily used to fund loans in such currency or by reference to which interest rates applicable to loans in such currency
are determined to maintain reserves (including, without limitation, any emergency, supplemental, special or other marginal reserves) with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as
“Eurocurrency liabilities” under Regulation D), additional costs on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurocurrency Rate Loan to such Borrower equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such
Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive) (but excluding any such costs arising from changes in the Eurocurrency Reserve Rate), which shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan, provided
that the Company shall have received at least 15 days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional interest from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice 15 days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such
additional interest shall be due and payable 15 days from receipt of such notice.
3.05 Funding Losses. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurocurrency
Rate Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurocurrency Rate Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the
failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurocurrency Rate Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.05 and is revoked in accordance therewith
or otherwise) or (d) the assignment of any Eurocurrency Rate Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Company pursuant to Section 3.06(b) or 10.15, then, in any such
event, the applicable 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 reasonably determined by such Lender to be the excess,
if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at LIBOR that would have been applicable to such Loan, 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 which would accrue on such principal amount for
such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for deposits in the relevant currency of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurocurrency market. A certificate of any
Lender setting forth the computation in reasonable detail of any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the applicable Borrower contemporaneously with the demand for payment and shall be
conclusive absent manifest error. The applicable Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within thirty (30) days after receipt thereof.
3.06 Matters Applicable to all Requests for Compensation.
(a) A certificate of the Administrative Agent or any Lender claiming compensation under this Article III
and setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for computing the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be provided to the Company and shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, the
Administrative Agent or such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.
(b) Upon any Lender’s making a claim for compensation under Section 3.01, 3.04 or 3.07, the
Company may remove or replace such Lender in accordance with Section 10.15.
64
3.07 Additional Interest Costs.
(a) Additional Interest. If and so long as any Lender is required to comply with reserve asset ratios,
liquidity, cash margin or other requirements of any monetary or other authority (including any such requirement imposed by the Bank of England or the European Central Bank or the European System of Central Banks, but excluding requirements reflected
in the Eurocurrency Reserve Rate) in respect of any of such Lender’s Eurocurrency Rate Loans in any currency other than Dollars, such Lender may require the Company to pay, or cause the applicable Borrower to pay, contemporaneously with each payment
of interest on each of such Loans subject to such requirements, additional interest on such Loan at a rate per annum specified by such Lender to be the cost to such Lender of complying with such requirements in relation to such Loan.
(b) Determination of Amounts Due. Any additional interest owed pursuant to subsection (a) above shall be
determined by the relevant Lender and notified to the Company (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in the form of a certificate setting forth such additional interest at least five Business Days before each date on which interest is payable for
the relevant Loan (which determination shall be made in good faith (and not on an arbitrary or capricious basis) and consistent with similarly situated customers of the applicable Lender under agreements having provisions similar to this Section
3.07 after consideration of such factors as such Lender then reasonably determines to be relevant), and such additional interest so notified to the Company by such Lender shall be payable to the Administrative Agent for the account of such
Lender on each date on which interest is payable for such Loan.
(c) Limitation on Amounts Due. Subject to Section 3.09(b), failure or delay on the part of any
Lender on any occasion to demand additional interest pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such additional interest on any subsequent occasion.
3.08 Survival. All of the Borrowers’ obligations (and each Lenders’ and the Administrative
Agent’s obligation of notice) under this Article III shall survive termination of the Commitments and payment in full of all the other Obligations.
3.09 Change in Lending Office; Limitation on Increased Costs.
(a) Each Lender agrees that it will use reasonable efforts to designate an alternate Lending Office with respect to
any of its Loans affected by the matters or circumstances described in Sections 3.01, 3.02, 3.04 or 3.07 to reduce the liability of the Borrowers or avoid the results provided thereunder, so long as such designation is
not disadvantageous to such Lender as determined by such Lender in its sole discretion; provided that nothing in this Section 3.09 shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of any Borrower or the right of any Lender provided in
such Sections.
(b) Notwithstanding Section 3.04, Section 3.06 or Section 3.07, the Borrowers shall only be
obligated to compensate the Lenders for amounts arising under Section 3.04, Section 3.06 or Section 3.07 to the extent such amounts arose during (i) any time or period commencing not more than 120 days prior to the date on
which such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Company that such Lender proposes to demand compensation under Section 3.04, Section 3.06 or Section 3.07 and (ii) any time or period during which, because of the
unannounced retroactive application of any statute, regulation or other basis, such Lender could not have known that such amount might arise or accrue.
65
3.10 Defaulting Lenders.
(a) If a Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender, the following provisions shall
apply, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement:
(i) the L/C Exposure and the Swingline Exposure of such Defaulting Lender will, subject to the
limitation in the proviso below, automatically be reallocated (effective no later than one (1) Business Day after the Administrative Agent has actual knowledge that such Lender has become a Defaulting Lender) among the Non‑Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis in accordance with the Commitments of the Non‑Defaulting Lenders; provided that (x) such reallocation does not cause the total Revolving Credit Exposure of any Non‑Defaulting Lender to
exceed the Commitment of such Non‑Defaulting Lender and (y) the conditions set forth in Section 4.02(a) and (b) are satisfied at the time of such reallocation; and
(ii) to the extent that any portion (the “unreallocated portion”) of the L/C Exposure
and the Swingline Exposure of any Defaulting Lender cannot be reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above for any reason, the Borrowers will, not later than two (2) Business Days after demand by the Administrative Agent (at the direction of the L/C
Issuers and/or the Swingline Lender), (x) Cash Collateralize the obligations of the Borrowers to the L/C Issuers or the Swingline Lender in respect of such L/C Exposure or such Swingline Exposure, as the case may be, in an amount equal to the
aggregate amount of the unreallocated portion of the L/C Exposure and the Swingline Exposure of such Defaulting Lender, (y) in the case of such Swingline Exposure, prepay and/or Cash Collateralize in full the unreallocated portion thereof, or (z)
make other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Swingline Lender in their sole discretion to protect them against the risk of non‑payment by such Defaulting Lender;
provided that neither any such reallocation nor any payment by a Non‑Defaulting Lender pursuant thereto nor any such Cash Collateralization or reduction will constitute a waiver or release of any claim any
Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer, the Swingline Lender or any other Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender or cause such Defaulting Lender to be a Non‑Defaulting Lender.
66
(b) If the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Swingline Lender agree in writing in their
discretion that any Defaulting Lender has ceased to be 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, the
L/C Exposure and the Swingline Exposure of the other Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment, and such Lender will purchase at par such portion of outstanding Revolving Loans of the other Lenders and/or make
such other adjustments as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Revolving Credit Exposure of the Lenders to be on a pro rata basis in accordance with their respective
Commitments, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender and will be a Non‑Defaulting Lender (and such Revolving Credit Exposure of each Lender will automatically be adjusted on a prospective basis to reflect the foregoing). If the
L/C Exposure or the Swingline Exposure of such Defaulting Lender has been Cash Collateralized, the Administrative Agent will promptly return such cash collateral to the Borrowers; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with
respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrowers while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender; provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder
from Defaulting Lender to Non‑Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.
(c) So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no L/C Issuer will be required to issue, amend, extend, renew or
increase any Letter of Credit, and the Swingline Lender will not be required to fund any Swingline Loans, as applicable, unless it is satisfied that 100% of the related L/C Exposure and Swingline Exposure after giving effect thereto is fully covered
or eliminated by application of the following provisions in order:
(i) first, in the case of a Defaulting Lender, the Swingline Exposure and the L/C
Exposure of such Defaulting Lender is reallocated to the Non‑Defaulting Lenders as provided in subsection (a)(i) of this Section (and to the full extent permitted by such subsection);
(ii) second, in the case of a Defaulting Lender, without limiting the provisions of
subsection (a)(ii) of this Section, each Borrower Cash Collateralizes its reimbursement obligations in respect of such Letter of Credit or such Swingline Loan in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the unreallocated obligations (contingent or
otherwise) of such Defaulting Lender in respect of such Letter of Credit or such Swingline Loan, or the Borrowers make other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, in their
sole discretion to protect them against the risk of non‑payment by such Defaulting Lender; and
(iii) third, in the case of a Defaulting Lender, the Borrowers agree that the face amount
of such requested Letter of Credit or the principal amount of such requested Swingline Loan will be reduced by an amount equal to the unreallocated, non‑Cash Collateralized portion thereof as to which such Defaulting Lender would otherwise be liable,
in which case the obligations of the Non‑Defaulting Lenders in respect of such Letter of Credit or such Swingline Loan will, subject to the limitation in the proviso below, be on a pro rata basis in
accordance with the Commitments of the Non‑Defaulting Lenders, and the pro rata payment provisions of Section 2.12 will be deemed adjusted to reflect this provision; provided that the sum of
each Non‑Defaulting Lender’s total Revolving Credit Exposure may not in any event exceed the Commitment of such Non‑Defaulting Lender as in effect at the time of such reduction.
67
(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any amount paid by the Borrowers for the account of a
Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, reimbursement of payments by an L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit, indemnity payments or other amounts) will be retained by the Administrative Agent in a
segregated non‑interest bearing account until the Maturity Date (or such earlier date as the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Swingline Lender agree in writing in their discretion that such Lender has ceased to be a
Defaulting Lender) at which time the funds in such account will be applied by the Administrative Agent, to the fullest extent permitted by law, in the following order of priority: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting
Lender to the Administrative Agent under this Agreement; second, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the L/C Issuers and the Swingline Lender under this Agreement; third, to the payment of interest due and
payable to the Lenders hereunder that are not Defaulting Lenders, ratably among them in accordance with the amounts of such interest then due and payable to them; fourth, to the payment of fees then due and payable to the Lenders hereunder
that are not Defaulting Lenders, ratably among them in accordance with the amounts of such fees then due and payable to them; fifth, to the payment of principal and unreimbursed drawings under any Letters of Credit then due and payable to the
Lenders hereunder that are not Defaulting Lenders, ratably in accordance with the amounts thereof then due and payable to them; sixth, to the ratable payment of other amounts then due and payable to the Lenders hereunder that are not
Defaulting Lenders; and seventh, to pay amounts owing under this Agreement to such Defaulting Lender or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

ARTICLE V.
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
Each Borrower represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that:
5.01 Existence, Qualification. (a) Such Borrower is a corporation duly incorporated,
validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation, and (b) the Company is in good standing under the Laws of the State of Florida. Each Subsidiary Borrower incorporated in England and Wales represents and
warrants to the Lenders that its centre of main interest (as that term is used in Article 3(1) of the EU Insolvency Regulation) is in England and Wales and it has no establishment (as that term is used in Article 2(10) of the EU Insolvency
Regulation) in any other jurisdiction.
5.02 Authorization; No Contravention. The execution, delivery and performance by each
Borrower of each Loan Document (a) are within its corporate or analogous powers, (b) have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or analogous action, and (c) do not contravene (i) such Borrower’s Organization Documents, (ii) any applicable
Laws or (iii) any material contractual restriction binding on or affecting such Borrower, except for each of clauses (ii) and (iii) where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect.
5.03 Governmental Authorization. No authorization or approval or other action by, and no
notice to or filing with, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is required for the due execution, delivery and performance by any Borrower of any Loan Document.
5.04 Binding Effect. This Agreement is, and each other Loan Document when delivered
hereunder will be, the legal, valid and binding obligation of each Borrower enforceable against it in accordance with its respective terms except that such enforcement may be limited by applicable Debtor Relief Laws.
5.05 Financial Statements; No Material Adverse Change.
(a) The Audited Financial Statements, copies of which have been furnished to the Lenders, fairly present in all
material respects the consolidated financial condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of June 29, 2018 and the results of the operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries for the fiscal year ended on such date, all in accordance with
GAAP.
(b) Since the date of the Audited Financial Statements, there has been no change in such conditions or
operations that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
71
5.06 Litigation. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.06, on the date of this
Agreement there is no pending or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened action, investigation or proceeding affecting any Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiaries before any court, Governmental Authority or arbitrator which if adversely determined
would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
5.07 ERISA Compliance. No Reportable Event has occurred during the five‑year period prior
to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made with respect to any Single Employer Plan, and each Single Employer Plan has, during this five‑year period, complied in all material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA and
the Code. There is no outstanding Lien under ERISA or the Code with respect to any Single Employer Plan. The ratio of the present value of all accrued benefits under each Single Employer Plan (based on those assumptions used to fund the Plan as
determined by the Plan’s actuary) to the value of the assets of such Plan allocable to such accrued benefits is not higher than such ratio as of the last annual valuation date prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made.
Neither the Company nor any Commonly Controlled Entity has had a complete or partial withdrawal from any Multiemployer Plan with respect to which there is an outstanding liability, and neither the Company nor any Commonly Controlled Entity would
become subject to any liability under ERISA if the Company or any such Commonly Controlled Entity were to withdraw completely from all Multiemployer Plans as of the valuation date most closely preceding the date on which this representation is made
or deemed made. No such Multiemployer Plan is in Reorganization or Insolvency. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the events, acts or failures to act described in this Section 5.07 shall be deemed to result in a breach of a
representation or warranty unless it would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
5.08 Real Property. To each Borrower’s knowledge, each of the representations and
warranties set forth in paragraphs (a) through (e) of this Section 5.08 is true and correct with respect to each parcel or real property owned or operated by the Borrowers and the Restricted Subsidiaries (the “Properties”), except to
the extent that the facts and circumstances giving rise to any such failure to be so true and correct would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect:
(a) The Properties do not contain, and have not previously contained, in, on, or under such Properties,
including without limitation, the soil and groundwater thereunder, any Hazardous Materials in concentrations which violate Environmental Laws.
(b) The Properties and all operations and facilities at the Properties are in compliance with all Environmental
Laws, and there is no Hazardous Materials contamination in violation of any Environmental Law which would interfere with the continued operation of any of the Properties or impair the fair saleable value of any thereof other than Hazardous
Materials found in properties of similar age and type (e.g. the potential for asbestos containing material or lead paint present in compliance with Environmental Laws).
(c) Neither the Borrowers nor any of the Restricted Subsidiaries has received any complaint, notice of
violation, alleged violation, investigation or advisory action or of potential liability or of potential responsibility regarding environmental protection matters or permit compliance with regard to the Properties, nor is any Borrower aware that
any Governmental Authority is contemplating delivery to any Borrower or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries of any such notice.
72
(d) Hazardous Materials have not been generated, treated, stored, disposed of, at, on or under any of the
Properties, nor have any Hazardous Materials been transferred from the Properties to any other location, in either case, in a manner that violates any Environmental Law.
(e) There are no governmental, administrative actions or judicial proceedings pending or contemplated under any
Environmental Laws to which any Borrower or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries is or will be named as a party with respect to the Properties, nor are there any consent decrees or other decrees, consent orders, administrative orders or other
orders, or other administrative or judicial requirements, outstanding under any Environmental Law with respect to any of the Properties.
5.09 Margin Regulations; Investment Company Act.
(a) No Borrower is generally engaged in the business of extending credit or in the business of purchasing or
carrying Margin Stock, and the Borrowings hereunder will not be used for the purpose of carrying Margin Stock in a manner which (i) would violate or result in a violation of Regulations T, U or X, or (ii) would constitute a Hostile Acquisition
involving Margin Stock.
(b) None of any Borrower, any Person controlling any Borrower, or any Restricted Subsidiary is or is required to
be registered as an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act of 1940.
5.10 Outstanding Loans. The aggregate outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure does not
exceed the Aggregate Commitments, other than as a result of fluctuations in currency exchange rates and subject to Section 2.04(b).
5.11 Taxes. The Borrowers and the Restricted Subsidiaries have filed all Federal, state
and other tax returns and reports required to be filed, and have paid all Federal, state and other taxes, assessments, fees and other governmental charges levied or imposed upon them or their properties, income or assets otherwise due and payable,
except (a) those the failure to so file or pay would not in the aggregate have a Material Adverse Effect or which are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which adequate reserves have been provided in accordance with
GAAP, and (b) those required, levied or imposed by foreign governments if, in the opinion of the chief executive officer of the Company, the filing or payment thereof shall no longer be advantageous to the Borrowers or the Restricted Subsidiaries
in the conduct of their business and the failure to so file or pay would not in the aggregate have a Material Adverse Effect. There is no proposed tax assessment against any Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary that would, if made, have a
Material Adverse Effect.
5.12 Intellectual Property; License, Etc. Each of the Borrowers and the Restricted
Subsidiaries owns, or is licensed, or otherwise has the right, to use, all patents, trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights and other intellectual property necessary to its business, and, except as set forth on Schedule 5.06, the
use thereof by the Borrowers and the Restricted Subsidiaries does not infringe on the rights of any other Person, except in each case where a failure to have such rights or such infringement would not have a Material Adverse Effect.
73
5.13 Disclosure. No statement, information, report, representation, or warranty made by
any Borrower in any Loan Document or furnished to the Administrative Agent or any Lender by or on behalf of any Borrower in connection with any Loan Document when made contains any untrue statement of material fact or omits any material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading in any material respect. This representation does not apply to estimates or projections of future
performance, which each Borrower represents were or will be prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable at the time of preparation. As of the Closing Date, to the knowledge of the Company, the information included in
the Beneficial Ownership Certification provided on or prior to the Closing Date to any Lender in connection with this Agreement is true and correct in all respects.
5.14 Solvency. Immediately following the making of each Borrowing and after giving effect
to the application of the proceeds of such Borrowing, the Company and its Subsidiaries (on a consolidated basis) will be Solvent.
5.15 Anti‑Money Laundering Laws/Patriot Act. The Company and its Subsidiaries (a) have
conducted and will continue to conduct their business operations in compliance, in all material respects, with all applicable financial recordkeeping and reporting requirements, including those of the Bank Secrecy Act, the Patriot Act, and the
applicable anti‑money laundering statutes, rules and regulations of jurisdictions where the Company or its Subsidiaries conduct business (collectively, the “Anti‑Money Laundering Laws”); (b) have instituted and maintained and will continue
to maintain policies and procedures designed to promote and achieve compliance with applicable Anti‑Money Laundering Laws; and (c) will not, directly or, to its knowledge after due inquiry, indirectly, use the proceeds of the Credit Extensions, or

Laundering Laws.

operations, or finance any activities, by any of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in a Sanctioned Country, except to the extent permissible for a Person required to comply with Sanctions, or (ii) to finance any investment, or make any
payments, by any of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to a Sanctioned Person, a Person owned or controlled by one or more Sanctioned Persons, or a Sanctioned Country, except to the extent permissible for a Person required to comply with
Sanctions.

employees and, to the knowledge of the Company, any agent of, and acting on behalf of, the Company and its Subsidiaries, (a) have conducted (other than as set forth in the Company’s annual report on Form 10‑K for the fiscal year ended June 29,
2018) and will continue to conduct their businesses operations in compliance in all material respects with the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder (the “FCPA”), the U.K. Xxxxxxx
Xxx 0000, and all other applicable anti‑corruption laws (collectively, the “Anti‑Corruption Laws”) and (b) have instituted and maintained and will continue to maintain policies and procedures designed to promote and achieve compliance with

of the Company;
then, and in every such event (other than an event with respect to any Borrower or any Material Subsidiary described in subsection (f) above), and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such event,
the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, shall, by notice to the Company, take any of the following actions, at the same or different times: (i) declare the Commitment of each Lender to make Loans and any obligation of the
L/C Issuers to make L/C Credit Extensions to be terminated, whereupon such Commitments and obligation shall be terminated; (ii) declare the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon, and all other
amounts owing or payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document to be immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrowers; (iii) require that
the Borrowers Cash Collateralize the L/C Exposure (in an amount equal to the then Outstanding Amount thereof); and (iv) exercise on behalf of itself and the Lenders all rights and remedies available to it and the Lenders under the Loan Documents or
applicable law; provided, however, that upon the occurrence of any event specified in subsection (f) above with respect to any Borrower or any Material Subsidiary, the Commitment of each Lender to make Loans and any obligation of
the L/C Issuers to make L/C Credit Extensions shall automatically terminate, the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans and all interest and other amounts as aforesaid shall automatically become due and payable, and the obligation of the
Borrowers to Cash Collateralize the L/C Exposure as aforesaid shall automatically become effective, in each case without further act of the Administrative Agent or any Lender.
ARTICLE IX.
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
9.01 Appointment and Authorization of Administrative Agent.
(a) Each Lender hereby irrevocably (subject to Section 9.09) appoints, designates and authorizes the
Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any
other Loan Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere herein or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or
responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall the Administrative Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender or participant, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties,
obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” herein and
in the other Loan Documents with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a
matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.
86
(b) Each L/C Issuer shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and
the documents associated therewith until such time (and except for so long) as the Administrative Agent may agree at the request of the Required Lenders to act for the L/C Issuers with respect thereto; provided, however, that each
L/C Issuer shall have all of the benefits and immunities (i) provided to the Administrative Agent in this Article IX with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by any L/C Issuer in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it
or proposed to be issued by it and the application and agreements for letters of credit pertaining to the Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent” as used in this Article IX included such L/C Issuer with
respect to such acts or omissions, and (ii) as additionally provided herein with respect to such L/C Issuer.
9.02 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under
this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys‑in‑fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultants or experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent
shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney‑in‑fact that it selects in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final nonappealable
judgment).
9.03 Liability of Administrative Agent. No Agent‑Related Person shall (a) be liable for
any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction by final nonappealable judgment) in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein), or (b) be responsible in any manner to any Lender or participant for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made
by any Borrower or any officer thereof, contained herein or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with,
this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for any failure of any Borrower or any other party to any Loan Document to
perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Agent‑Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lender or participant to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions
of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Borrower or any of its Affiliates.
87
9.04 Reliance by Administrative Agent.
(a) The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any
writing, communication, signature, resolution, representation, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, statement or other document or conversation (including any electronic message,
posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the Borrowers), independent
accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under any Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of
the Required Lenders or all the Lenders if applicable and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing
to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders or
all the Lenders, if required hereunder, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and participants. Where this Agreement expressly permits or prohibits an action unless the
Required Lenders or all the Lenders if applicable otherwise determine, the Administrative Agent shall, and in all other instances, the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, initiate any solicitation for the consent or a vote of
the Lenders.
(b) For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Section 4.01, each Lender
that has signed this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter either sent by the Administrative Agent to such Lender for consent, approval, acceptance or
satisfaction, or required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender.
9.05 Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or
notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, unless the Administrative
Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or the Company referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. The Administrative Agent will notify the
Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be directed by the Required Lenders in accordance with Article VIII; provided, however,
that unless and until the Administrative Agent has received any such direction, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as
it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Lenders.
9.06 Credit Decision; Disclosure of Information by Administrative Agent. Each Lender
acknowledges that neither any L/C Issuer nor any Agent‑Related Person has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereinafter taken, including any consent to and acceptance of any assignment or review
of the affairs of any Borrower or any of its Affiliates, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent‑Related Person to any Lender as to any matter, including whether Agent‑Related Persons have disclosed material
information in their possession. Each Lender represents to the Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent‑Related Person and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its
own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrowers and their respective Subsidiaries, and all applicable bank or other regulatory Laws relating
to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to the Borrowers hereunder. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent‑Related
Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to
make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrowers. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly
required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent herein, neither any L/C Issuer nor the Administrative Agent shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the
business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any Borrower or any of its respective Affiliates which may come into the possession of any Agent‑Related Person.
88
9.07 Indemnification of Administrative Agent. Whether or not the transactions
contemplated hereby are consummated, the Lenders shall indemnify upon demand the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such and each Agent‑Related Person while acting for or on behalf of the Administrative Agent in such capacity (to the extent
not reimbursed by or on behalf of the Borrowers and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so), pro rata based on the applicable Pro Rata Shares (at the time the claim was asserted), and hold harmless the Administrative Agent in its
capacity as such and each Agent‑Related Person while acting for or on behalf of the Administrative Agent in such capacity from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by it; provided, however, that no Lender shall
be liable for the payment to the Administrative Agent or any Agent‑Related Person of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities resulting from such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a final, non‑appealable judgment
of a court of competent jurisdiction); provided, further, however, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders or all the Lenders if applicable shall be deemed to constitute gross
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse the Administrative Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out‑of‑pocket expenses (including
Attorney Costs) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice
in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the
Borrowers. The undertaking in this Section shall survive termination of the Commitments, the payment of all Obligations hereunder and the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent.
9.08 Administrative Agent in its Individual Capacity. JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and its
Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with the Borrowers
and their respective Affiliates as though JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. were not the Administrative Agent or an L/C Issuer hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Lenders. The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, JPMorgan
Chase Bank, N.A. or its Affiliates may receive information regarding the Borrowers or their Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of the Borrowers or any such Affiliate) and acknowledge that
the Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to its Loans, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise such
rights and powers as though it were not the Administrative Agent or an L/C Issuer, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” include JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. in its individual capacity.
89
9.09 Successor Administrative Agent.
(a) The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon 30 days’ notice to the Lenders. If the
Administrative Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor administrative agent for the Lenders, the appointment of which successor administrative agent shall be subject to the consent
of the Company at all times other than during the existence of an Event of Default (which consent of the Company shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no successor administrative agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the
resignation of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and the Company, a successor administrative agent from among the Lenders.
(b) Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor administrative agent hereunder, such successor
administrative agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor administrative agent and the retiring Administrative Agent’s appointment,
powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article IX and Sections 10.03 and 10.13 shall
inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement. If no successor administrative agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date which is 30 days
following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Required Lenders shall perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent
hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above.
(c) In addition to the foregoing, if a Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender,
and if any Default has arisen from a failure of the Borrowers to comply with Section 3.10(a), then any L/C Issuer and the Swingline Lender may, upon prior written notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, resign as an L/C
Issuer or as Swingline Lender, as the case may be, effective at the close of business New York, New York time on a date specified in such notice (which date may not be less than five (5) Business Days after the date of such notice).
9.10 Other Agents, Lead Arrangers. None of the Lenders identified on the facing page or
signature pages of this Agreement as a “Joint Bookrunner”, “Joint Lead Arranger”, “Co‑Syndication Agent” or “Co-Documentation Agent” shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those
applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Lenders so identified shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely,
on the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers or any of the Lenders so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder.
90
9.11 Withholding Tax. To the extent required by any applicable Law, the Administrative
Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding tax. If the Internal Revenue Service or any authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did
not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender (because the appropriate form was not delivered, was not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in
circumstances that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective, or for any other reason), such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not already been
reimbursed by the Borrowers and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so) fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as tax or otherwise, including penalties and interest, together with all
expenses incurred, including legal expenses, allocated staff costs and any out of pocket expenses. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest
error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due the Administrative Agent under this
Section 9.11. The agreements in this Section 9.11 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment,
satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of this Section 9.11, the term “Lender” includes an L/C Issuer.
9.12 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim.
(a) In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization,
arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Borrower, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or any Outstanding Amount shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or
by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrowers) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:
(i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and
unpaid in respect of the Loans or Outstanding Amounts 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, the L/C Issuers and the
Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the L/C
Issuers and the Administrative Agent under Section 10.04) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and
(ii) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any
such claims and to distribute the same.
(b) Any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such
judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and each L/C Issuer to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, if the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and the L/C
Issuers, 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
10.04 and Section 10.05.
91
Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or any L/C Issuer any plan of reorganization, arrangement,
adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.
9.13 Certain ERISA Matters.
(a) Each Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and
(y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent, and the Arrangers and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the
avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrowers, that at least one of the following is and will be true:

transactions involving insurance company pooled separate accounts), PTE 91-38 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving bank collective investment funds) or PTE 96-23 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by in-house

thereunder are and will continue to be satisfied in connection therewith,
(iii) (A) such Lender is an investment fund managed by a “Qualified Professional Asset

Commitments and this Agreement, (C) the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement satisfies the requirements of sub-sections (b) through (g) of Part

the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement,
92
(iv) such other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between
the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, and such Lender.
(b) In addition, unless sub-clause (i) in the immediately preceding clause (a) is true with respect to a Lender
or such Lender has not provided another representation, warranty and covenant as provided in sub-clause (iv) in the immediately preceding clause (a), such Lender further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender
party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent, and the Arrangers and their respective
Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrowers, that none of the Administrative Agent, or the Arrangers or any of their respective Affiliates is a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender
(including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Loan Document or any documents related hereto or thereto).
(c) The Administrative Agent and each Arranger hereby informs the Lenders that each such Person is not
undertaking to provide impartial investment advice, or to give advice in a fiduciary capacity, in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, and that such Person has a financial interest in the transactions contemplated hereby in that
such Person or an Affiliate thereof (i) may receive interest or other payments with respect to the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, (ii) may recognize a gain if it extended the Loans, the Letters of Credit or the
Commitments for an amount less than the amount being paid for an interest in the Loans, the Letters of Credit or the Commitments by such Lender or (iii) may receive fees or other payments in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby,

credit fees, fronting fees, deal-away or alternate transaction fees, amendment fees, processing fees, term out premiums, banker’s acceptance fees, breakage or other early termination fees or fees similar to the foregoing.
9.14 Posting of Communications.
(a) The Borrowers agree that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make any
Communications available to the Lenders and the L/C Issuers by posting the Communications on IntraLinks™, DebtDomain, SyndTrak, ClearPar or any other electronic platform chosen by the Administrative Agent to be its electronic transmission system
(the “Approved Electronic Platform”).
(b) Although the Approved Electronic Platform and its primary web portal are secured with generally-applicable
security procedures and policies implemented or modified by the Administrative Agent from time to time (including, as of the Closing Date, a user ID/password authorization system) and the Approved Electronic Platform is secured through a per-deal
authorization method whereby each user may access the Approved Electronic Platform only on a deal-by-deal basis, each of the Lenders, each of the L/C Issuers and the Borrowers acknowledge and agree that the distribution of material through an
electronic medium is not necessarily secure and that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution. Each of the Lenders, each of the L/C Issuers and the Borrowers hereby approve distribution of the Communications
through the Approved Electronic Platform and understands and assumes the risks of such distribution.
93
(c) THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE COMMUNICATIONS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. THE
APPLICABLE PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS, OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC
PLATFORM AND THE COMMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE
DEFECTS, IS MADE BY THE APPLICABLE PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY ARRANGER, ANY CO-SYNDICATION AGENT, ANY CO-DOCUMENTATION AGENT OR ANY OF THEIR
RESPECTIVE RELATED PARTIES (COLLECTIVELY, “APPLICABLE PARTIES”) HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY BORROWER, ANY LENDER, ANY L/C ISSUER OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF ANY BORROWER’S OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM.
(d) Each Lender and each L/C Issuer agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that
Communications have been posted to the Approved Electronic Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender and each L/C Issuer agrees (i) to notify the
Administrative Agent in writing (which could be in the form of electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s (as applicable) email address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission
and (ii) that the foregoing notice may be sent to such email address.
(e) Each of the Lenders, each of the L/C Issuers and the Company agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but
(except as may be required by applicable law) shall not be obligated to, store the Communications on the Approved Electronic Platform in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s generally applicable document retention procedures and policies.
(f) Nothing herein shall prejudice the right of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any L/C Issuer to give
any notice or other communication pursuant to any Loan Document in any other manner specified in such Loan Document.
ARTICLE X.
MISCELLANEOUS
10.01 Amendments, Etc. Except as provided in Section 3.03(b), no amendment or waiver
of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (other than the Fee Letter), and no consent to any departure by any Borrower therefrom, shall be effective unless in writing signed by the Required Lenders and the Company, and each such
waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no such amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by each of the Lenders
directly affected thereby and by the Company, do any of the following:
94
(a) extend or increase the Commitment of any Lender (or reinstate any Commitment terminated pursuant to Article
VIII);
(b) postpone any date fixed by this Agreement or any other Loan Document for any payment or mandatory
prepayment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts due to the Lenders (or any of them) hereunder or under any other Loan Document; provided that a change to any financial or other covenant or
representation and warranty or waiver of an Event of Default shall only require the consent of the Required Lenders;
(c) reduce the principal of, or the rate of interest specified herein on, any Loan or L/C Borrowing, or
(subject to clause (iv) of the proviso below) any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document; provided, however, that (i) only the consent of the Required Lenders and the Company shall be necessary to
amend the definition of “Default Rate” or to waive any obligation of the Borrowers to pay interest at the Default Rate and (ii) any amendment entered into pursuant to the terms of Section 3.03(b) shall not constitute a reduction in the
rate of interest or fees for purposes of this clause (c);
(d) change the definition of “Required Lenders” or the percentage of the Aggregate Commitments or of the
aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loans and L/C Exposure which is required for the Lenders or any of them to take any action hereunder;
(e) change the Pro Rata Share or Voting Percentage of any Lender (except for any such change resulting from Section

(f) amend this Section, or Section 2.12, or any provision herein providing for consent or other

Administrative Agent in addition to the Required Lenders or all the Lenders, as the case may be, affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (iii) no amendment, waiver or consent shall,
unless in writing and signed by the Swingline Lender in addition to the Required Lenders or all the Lenders, as the case may be, affect the rights or duties of the Swingline Lender under this Agreement or any Swingline Loan made or to be made by
it; and (iv) the Fee Letter may be amended, or rights or privileges thereunder waived, in a writing executed only by the respective parties thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to
approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except that the Commitment of such Lender may not be increased or extended, and amounts payable to such Lender hereunder may not be permanently reduced, without the consent of such
Lender (other than reductions in fees and interest in which such reduction does not disproportionately affect such Lender). Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, this Agreement may be amended and restated without the consent
of any Lender (but with the consent of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent) if, upon giving effect to such amendment and restatement, such Lender shall no longer be a party to this Agreement (as so amended and restated), the Commitments of
such Lender shall have terminated (but such Lender shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04, 3.05, 10.04 and 10.05), such Lender shall have no other commitment or other obligation
hereunder and shall have been paid in full all principal, interest and other amounts owing to it or accrued for its account under this Agreement. If the Administrative Agent and the Company acting together identify any ambiguity, omission,
mistake, typographical error or other defect in any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, then the Administrative Agent and the Company shall be permitted to amend, modify or supplement such provision to cure such ambiguity,
omission, mistake, typographical error or other defect, and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement.

deposit in the mails, postage prepaid; (C) if delivered by facsimile, when sent and receipt has been confirmed by telephone; and (D) if delivered by electronic mail (which form of delivery is subject to the provisions of subsection (c) below), when
delivered; provided, however, that notices and other communications to the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuers pursuant to Article II shall not be effective until actually received by such Person. Any notice or other
communication permitted to be given, made or confirmed by telephone hereunder shall be given, made or confirmed by means of a telephone call to the intended recipient at the number specified on Schedule 10.02, it being understood and agreed
that a voicemail message shall in no event be effective as a notice, communication or confirmation hereunder.
(a) Effectiveness of Facsimile/PDF Documents and Signatures. The Loan Documents may be transmitted
and/or signed by facsimile or by electronic mail in pdf form. The effectiveness of any such documents and signatures shall, subject to applicable Law, have the same force and effect as manually‑signed originals and shall be binding on the
Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders. The Administrative Agent may also require that any such documents and signatures be confirmed by a manually‑signed original thereof; provided, however, that
the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any facsimile document or signature.
96
(b) Reliance by Administrative Agent and Lenders. The Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and the
Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrowers even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form
of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The Borrowers shall indemnify each Agent‑Related Person and each Lender from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities
resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrowers. All telephonic notices to and other communications with the Administrative Agent may be recorded by the Administrative Agent, and each
of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording.
(c) Electronic Communications. Notices and other communications to the Lenders and the L/C Issuers
hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e‑mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices
to any Lender or any L/C Issuer pursuant to Article II unless such Lender, L/C Issuer, as applicable, and the Administrative Agent have agreed to receive notices under such Article by electronic communication and have agreed to the
procedures governing such communications. The Administrative Agent or the Company may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided
that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e‑mail address shall be deemed received upon the
sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e‑mail or other written acknowledgement); provided that if such notice or other communication is
not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient, and (ii) notices or communications posted to an
Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e‑mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying
the website address therefor.
10.03 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure by any Lender or the Administrative Agent
to exercise, and no delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any
other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein or therein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and
privileges provided by law.
10.04 Attorney Costs, Expenses and Taxes. The Borrowers agree (a) to pay or reimburse the
Administrative Agent for all reasonable and documented out‑of‑pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the development, preparation, negotiation, syndication and execution of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any
amendment, waiver, consent or other modification of the provisions hereof and thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby are consummated), and the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby
and thereby, including all Attorney Costs incurred by the Administrative Agent, and (b) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent and each Lender for all reasonable and documented out‑of‑pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the
enforcement, attempted enforcement, or preservation of any rights or remedies under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (including all such non‑duplicative costs and expenses incurred during any “workout” or restructuring in respect of the
Obligations and during any legal proceeding, including any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law), including all Attorney Costs. The foregoing costs and expenses shall include all search, filing, recording, title insurance and appraisal charges
and fees and taxes related thereto, and other out‑of‑pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and the cost of independent public accountants and other outside experts retained by the Administrative Agent or any Lender. The Borrowers
shall not be required to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for the Administrative Agent or any Lender under clause (b) of this section unless the employment of separate counsel has been authorized by the Company (such authorization
not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). The agreements in this Section 10.04 shall survive the termination of the Commitments and repayment of all other Obligations.
97
10.05 Indemnification by the Borrowers.
(a) Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Borrowers agree to indemnify, save
and hold harmless each Agent‑Related Person, each Lender and their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, counsel, advisors, agents and attorneys‑in‑fact (collectively the “Indemnitees”) from and against: (a) any and all
claims, demands, actions or causes of action that are asserted against any Indemnitee by any Person relating directly or indirectly to a claim, demand, action or cause of action that such Person asserts or may assert against the Borrowers, any of
their Affiliates or any of their respective officers or directors; (b) any and all claims, demands, actions or causes of action that may at any time (including at any time following repayment of the Obligations and the resignation or replacement
of the Administrative Agent or the replacement of any Lender) be asserted or imposed by the Borrowers, any of their Affiliates or any other Person against any Indemnitee, arising out of or relating to, the Loan Documents, the Commitments or the
use or contemplated use of the proceeds of any Credit Extension; (c) any administrative or investigative proceeding by any Governmental Authority arising out of or related to a claim, demand, action or cause of action described in subsection (a)
or (b) above; (d) any and all liabilities (including liabilities under indemnities), losses, costs or expenses (including Attorney Costs) that any Indemnitee suffers or incurs as a result of the assertion of any foregoing claim, demand, action,
cause of action or proceeding, or as a result of the preparation of any defense in connection with any foregoing claim, demand, action, cause of action or proceeding, in all cases, whether or not arising out of the negligence of an Indemnitee,
and whether or not an Indemnitee is a party to such claim, demand, action, cause of action or proceeding; and (e) any civil penalty or fine assessed by any governmental authority that administers Sanctions against, and all reasonable costs and
expenses (including counsel fees and disbursements) incurred in connection with defense thereof by, the Administrative Agent or any Lender as a result of conduct of any Borrower that violates any Sanctions (all the foregoing, collectively, the “Indemnified
Liabilities”); provided that no Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification from the Borrowers (i) for any claim caused by its own gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct, or that of any of its Affiliates, officers,
employees, advisors, or agents, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final nonappealable judgment, or (ii) for any loss or Indemnified Liabilities asserted against it by another Indemnitee, so long as such loss or Indemnified
Liability does not involve an act or omission by either the Company or any of its respective affiliates and are not brought against such Indemnitee in such capacities as an agent, arranger, or similar role under this Agreement. The agreements in
this Section 10.05 shall survive the termination of the Commitments and repayment of all other Obligations. In no case shall the Borrowers be required to indemnify an Indemnitee in respect of any indirect or special or consequential
damages, except to the extent any such damages are paid or payable by an Indemnitee. This Section 10.05(a) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax
claim.
98
(b) The Administrative Agent and each Lender agree that if any investigation, litigation, suit, action, or
proceeding is asserted or threatened in writing or instituted against it or any other Indemnitee, or any remedial, removal or response action is requested of it or any other Indemnitee for which the Administrative Agent or any Lender may desire
indemnity or defense hereunder, the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall, to the extent permitted or practicable, promptly notify the Company thereof in writing; provided that any failure on the part of the Administrative Agent or
any Lender to provide such notice shall not be deemed a waiver of the rights of the Administrative Agent or any such Lender to seek indemnity from the Borrowers in respect of any such investigation, litigation, suit, proceeding or action. The
Borrowers shall not be required to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for the Indemnitees in respect of any single action, suit or proceeding unless the employment of separate counsel has been authorized by the Company (such
authorization not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, provided that such authorization shall be deemed to have been given during the existence of a Default or Event of Default), or unless any Indemnitee is advised by its counsel that
there may be defenses available to it which are not available to the other Indemnitees or that there is a reasonable likelihood of a conflict between its interests and those of the other Indemnitees.
10.06 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that a Borrower makes a payment to the
Administrative Agent or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent or any Lender exercises its right of set‑off, and such payment or the proceeds of such set‑off 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 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 set‑off
had not occurred, and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share 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 NYFRB Rate from time to time in effect.
10.07 Successors and Assigns.
(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and
their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that no Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder (except as expressly permitted under Section 7.02) without the prior written
consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by any Borrower without such consent shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties
hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.
99
(b) Any Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations
under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans (including for purposes of this subsection (b), participations in L/C Exposure or Swingline Loans at the time owing to it)); provided that (i) except in the
case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to a Lender,
the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment
is delivered to the Administrative Agent, shall not be less than $5,000,000 in the case of any assignment of a Commitment unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company
otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), (ii) 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 Loans or the Commitment assigned, and (iii) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of
$3,500. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be
a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by
such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to
be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 10.04 and 10.05); 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 such 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 subsection (b) of this Section 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 subsection (d) of this Section. Upon its receipt of
a duly executed Assignment and Acceptance, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Company and the Lenders of the effective date thereof.
(c) The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Company, shall maintain at the
Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount and stated interest of the Loans and
L/C Exposure owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose
name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers and any Lender, at
any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
100
(d) Any Lender may, without the consent of, or notice to, any Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell
participations to one or more banks or other entities that are in the business of making and/or investing in commercial loans (other than to Disqualified Institutions) (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 (including such Lender’s participations in L/C Exposure 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 and (iii) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and
directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right
to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant,
agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification that would (i) postpone any date upon which any payment of money is scheduled to be paid to such Participant or (ii) reduce the principal, interest, fees or other amounts payable to such
Participant. Subject to subsection (f) of this Section, the Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had
acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 3.01 shall be delivered to the participating Lender). To the extent permitted by law, each
Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.09 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.12 as though it were a Lender.
(e) Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non‑fiduciary agent of
the Borrowers, maintain a register in the United States 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 to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information
relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or other obligations under any Loan Document) 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 U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 5f.103‑1(c) and Proposed Treasury Regulations 1.163-5(b) (or any amended or successor version). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive, absent
manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.
(f) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under this Agreement than the Lenders
would have been entitled to receive under similar circumstances, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Company’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Person if it were a Lender shall
not be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.01 unless the Company is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrowers, to comply with Sections 3.01(f) and 3.09
as though it were a Lender.
(g) 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.
101
(h) If the consent of the Company to an assignment or to an Eligible Assignee is required hereunder (including
a consent to an assignment which does not meet the minimum assignment threshold specified in Section 10.07(b)), the Company shall be deemed to have given its consent ten Business Days after the date written notice thereof has been
delivered by the assigning Lender to the Company (through the Administrative Agent) unless such consent is expressly refused by the Company prior to such tenth Business Day (except that there shall be no deemed consent with respect to assignment
to a Disqualified Institution).
(i) As used herein, the following terms have the following meanings:
“Eligible Assignee” means (a) a Lender; (b) an Affiliate of a Lender; (c) an Approved Fund; and (d) any other Person (other than a natural Person) approved by (1) the Administrative Agent,
(2) the L/C Issuers, and (3) unless an Event of Default specified in clauses (a) or (f) of Article VIII has occurred and is continuing, the Company (each such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), provided, however,
that no Disqualified Institution, no Defaulting Lender or its Parent Company and none of the Company, any Subsidiary of the Company, or any Affiliate of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company shall be an Eligible Assignee.
“Fund” means any Person (other than a natural Person) that is (or will be) engaged in making, purchasing, holding or otherwise investing in commercial loans and similar extensions of credit
in the ordinary course of its business.
“Approved Fund” means any Fund that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a
Lender.
(j) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. assigns
all of its Commitment and Loans pursuant to subsection (b) above, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. may, upon 30 days’ notice to the Company and the Lenders, resign as L/C Issuer and Swingline Lender. In the event of any such resignation as L/C Issuer
or Swingline Lender, the Company shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a successor L/C Issuer and Swingline Lender hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by the Company to appoint any such successor shall
affect the resignation of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as L/C Issuer and Swingline Lender. JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. shall retain all the rights and obligations of an L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the
effective date of its resignation as L/C Issuer and all L/C Exposure with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 2.03(c)).
(k) Disqualified Institutions.
(i) No assignment or participation shall be made to any Person that was a Disqualified
Institution as of the date (the “Trade Date”) on which the assigning Lender entered into a binding agreement to sell and assign or grant a participation in all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to such Person
(unless the Company has consented to such assignment or participation in writing in its sole and absolute discretion, in which case such Person will not be considered a Disqualified Institution for the purpose of such assignment or
participation). For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any assignee or Participant that becomes a Disqualified Institution after the applicable Trade Date (including as a result of the delivery of a written supplement to the list of
“Disqualified Institutions” referred to in, the definition of “Disqualified Institution”), (x) such assignee or Participant shall not retroactively be disqualified from becoming a Lender or Participant and (y) the execution by the Company of an
Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignee will not by itself result in such assignee no longer being considered a Disqualified Institution. Any assignment or participation in violation of this clause (k)(i) shall not be void, but
the other provisions of this clause (k) shall apply.
102
(ii) If any assignment or participation is made to any Disqualified Institution without the
Company’s prior written consent in violation of clause (i) above, or if any Person becomes a Disqualified Institution after the applicable Trade Date, the Company may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to the applicable Disqualified
Institution and the Administrative Agent, require such Disqualified Institution to assign, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in this Section 10.07), all of its interest, rights and obligations
under this Agreement to one or more Persons (other than an Ineligible Institution) at the lesser of (x) the principal amount thereof and (y) the amount that such Disqualified Institution paid to acquire such interests, rights and obligations in
each case plus accrued interest, accrued fees and all other amounts (other than principal amounts) payable to it hereunder.
(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Disqualified
Institutions to whom an assignment or participation is made in violation of clause (i) above (A) will not have the right to (x) receive information, reports or other materials provided to Lenders by the Company, the Administrative Agent or any
other Lender, (y) attend or participate in meetings attended by the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, or (z) access any electronic site established for the Lenders or confidential communications from counsel to or financial advisors of the
Administrative Agent or the Lenders and (B) (x) for purposes of any consent to any amendment, waiver or modification of, or any action under, and for the purpose of any direction to the Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action
(or refrain from taking any action) under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, each Disqualified Institution will be deemed to have consented in the same proportion as the Lenders that are not Disqualified Institutions consented to such
matter and (y) for purposes of voting on any plan of reorganization, each Disqualified Institution party hereto hereby agrees (1) not to vote on such plan of reorganization, (2) if such Disqualified Institution does vote on such plan of
reorganization notwithstanding the restriction in the foregoing clause (1), such vote will be deemed not to be in good faith and shall be “designated” pursuant to Section 1126(e) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision in any other
Debtor Relief Laws), and such vote shall not be counted in determining whether the applicable class has accepted or rejected such plan of reorganization in accordance with Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision in any
other applicable laws) and (3) not to contest any request by any party for a determination by the Bankruptcy Court (or other applicable court of competent jurisdiction) effectuating the foregoing clause (2).
103
(iv) The Administrative Agent shall have the right, and the Company hereby expressly
authorizes the Administrative Agent, to (x) post the list of Disqualified Institutions provided by the Company and any updates thereto from time to time (collectively, the “DQ List”) on an Approved Electronic Platform, including that
portion of such Approved Electronic Platform that is designated for “public side” Lenders and/or (y) provide the DQ List to each Lender or potential Lender requesting the same.
(v) The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall not be responsible or have any
liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Disqualified Institutions. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither the Administrative Agent nor
any Lender shall (x) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any other Lender or Participant or prospective Lender or Participant is a Disqualified Institution or (y) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any
assignment or participation of Loans, or disclosure of confidential information, by any other Person to any Disqualified Institution.
10.08 Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain
the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being
understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential); (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority; (c) to the
extent required by applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process; (d) to any other party to this Agreement; (e) as is required in the good faith view of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, in connection with the
exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder; (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 10.08,
to (i) any Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any direct or indirect contractual counterparty or prospective counterparty
(or such contractual counterparty’s or prospective counterparty’s professional advisor) to any credit derivative transaction relating to obligations of the Borrowers; (g) with the prior written consent of the Company; (h) to the extent such
Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.08 or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Company; (i) to
the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any other similar organization or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about a Lender’s or its Affiliates’ investment portfolio in connection with ratings
issued with respect to such Lender or its Affiliates, or (j) to the extent requested by any regulatory agency or authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Lender or its Affiliates (including any self‑regulatory authority). For the
purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Company or its representatives relating to the Company, its Subsidiaries or their business, other than (i) any such information that is available to the
Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Company, (ii) information pertaining to this Agreement routinely provided by arrangers to data service providers, including
league table providers, that serve the lending industry and (iii) the DQ List (which may be disclosed to any assignee or Participant, or prospective assignee or Participant); provided that, in the case of information received from
the Company after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified in writing at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to
have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.
104
10.09 Set‑off. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender and its Affiliates is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to the Company, any such notice being waived by the Company to the fullest
extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, but excluding payroll deposits and deposits held in a bona fide custodial or fiduciary capacity for Persons not Affiliates
of the Company) at any time held by, and other indebtedness at any time owing by, such Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Borrowers against any and all Obligations owing to such Lender, now or hereafter existing, irrespective of
whether or not the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall have made demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Company and the
Administrative Agent after any such set‑off and application made by such Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set‑off and application.
10.10 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any
Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non‑usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall
receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Company. In determining whether the interest contracted for,
charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than
interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations.
10.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of
which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of a counterpart signature page via facsimile or electronic transmission (including by electronic mail in pdf form) shall be
effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof.
10.12 Integration. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, comprises the
complete and integrated agreement of the parties on the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, on such subject matter. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those
of any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control; provided that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in any other Loan Document shall not be deemed a
conflict with this Agreement. Each Loan Document was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof.
105
10.13 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made
hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or
will be relied upon by the Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice
or knowledge of any Default or Event of 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 shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied or any Letter of Credit shall remain
outstanding.
10.14 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which
any Borrower is a party that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions thereof, and any such
prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
10.15 Removal and Replacement of Lenders.
(a) If (i) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (ii) in connection with any proposed amendment, modification,
termination, waiver or consent with respect to any of the provisions hereof as contemplated by Section 10.01, the consent of Required Lenders shall have been obtained but the consent of one or more other Lenders (each a “Non‑Consenting
Lender”) whose consent is required shall not have been obtained or (iii) under any other circumstances set forth herein providing that the Company shall have the right to remove or replace a Lender as a party to this Agreement, the Company
may, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, (1) remove such Lender by terminating (on a non-ratable basis) such Lender’s Commitment or (2) replace such Lender by causing such Lender to assign its Commitment (without payment of
any assignment fee) pursuant to Section 10.07(b) to one or more other Lenders or Eligible Assignees procured by the Company; provided, however, that (w) if the Company elects to exercise such right with respect to any
Lender pursuant to Section 3.06(b), it shall be obligated to remove or replace, as the case may be, all Lenders that have made similar requests for compensation pursuant to Section 3.01, 3.04 or 3.07, (x) if the
Company elects to exercise such right with respect to any Non‑Consenting Lender, it shall be obligated to replace all other Lenders whose consent was required but not obtained with respect to the applicable amendment, modification, termination,
waiver or consent, (y) the Company may not elect to exercise such right with respect to any Lender seeking payment or reimbursement for Taxes pursuant to Section 3.01 during the six months immediately following the designation by the
Company of a Borrower not organized in the United States to the extent that (A) such Taxes result from the designation by the Company of a Borrower not organized in the United States, and (B) such Lender uses its commercially reasonable efforts
to mitigate or eliminate such Taxes after such designation, including without limitation making appropriate filings with Governmental Authorities in the jurisdiction in which such Borrower is organized and (z) the Company shall, or shall cause
the applicable Borrower or assignee Lender to, as a condition to such replacement or removal, (1) pay in full all principal, accrued interest, accrued fees and other amounts owing to such Lender through the date of termination or assignment
(including any amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.05), (2) provide appropriate assurances and indemnities (which may include letters of credit) to each L/C Issuer as it may reasonably require with respect to any continuing obligation
to purchase participation interests in any L/C Exposure then outstanding, and (3) release such Lender from its obligations under the Loan Documents. Each party hereto agrees that any assignment required pursuant to this Section 10.15(a)
may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance executed by the Company, the Administrative Agent and the assignee (or, to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Acceptance by reference pursuant to an
Approved Electronic Platform as to which the Administrative Agent and such parties are participants), and the Lender required to make such assignment need not be a party thereto in order for such assignment to be effective and shall be deemed to
have consented to and be bound by the terms thereof; provided that, following the effectiveness of any such assignment, the other parties to such assignment agree to execute and deliver such documents necessary to evidence such assignment
as reasonably requested by the applicable Lender, provided that any such documents shall be without recourse to or warranty by the parties thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute an amended Schedule 2.01, which shall be deemed
incorporated into this Agreement, to reflect changes in the identities of the Lenders and adjustments of their respective Commitments and Pro Rata Shares resulting from any such removal or replacement.
106
(b) In order to make all the Lenders’ interests in any outstanding Credit Extensions ratable in accordance with
any revised Pro Rata Shares after giving effect to the removal or replacement of a Lender, the Borrowers shall pay or prepay, if necessary, on the effective date thereof, all outstanding Revolving Loans of all Lenders, together with any amounts
due under Section 3.05. The Borrowers may then request Revolving Loans from the Lenders in accordance with their revised Pro Rata Shares. The Borrowers may net any payments required hereunder against any funds being provided by any
Lender or Eligible Assignee replacing a terminating Lender. The effect for purposes of this Agreement shall be the same as if separate transfers of funds had been made with respect thereto.
(c) This Section shall supersede any provision in Section 10.01 to the contrary.

Borrowers that, pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrowers which information includes the name, address and tax

c/o Latham & Xxxxxxx LLP, 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx 00000. All parties agree that closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement has occurred in New York.
10.22 Currency Conversion. All payments under this Agreement or any other Loan Document
shall be made in Dollars, except for Loans funded in any Foreign Currency, which shall be repaid, including interest thereon, in such Foreign Currency. If any payment by the Borrowers or the proceeds of any collateral shall be made in a currency
other than the currency required hereunder, such amount shall be converted into the currency required hereunder at the rate determined by the Administrative Agent or the applicable L/C Issuer, as applicable, as the rate quoted by it in accordance
with methods customarily used by such Person for such or similar purposes as the spot rate for the purchase by such Person of the required currency with the currency of actual payment through its principal foreign exchange trading office
(including, in the case of the Administrative Agent, any Affiliate) at approximately 11:00 A.M. (local time at such office) two Business Days prior to the effective date of such conversion, provided that the Administrative Agent or the
applicable L/C Issuer, as applicable, may obtain such spot rate from another financial institution actively engaged in foreign currency exchange if the Administrative Agent or the applicable L/C Issuer, as applicable, does not then have a spot rate
for the required currency. The parties hereto hereby agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so under applicable law, that (a) if for the purposes of obtaining any judgment or award it becomes necessary to convert from any
currency other than the currency required hereunder into the currency required hereunder any amount in connection with the Obligations, then the conversion shall be made as provided above on the Business Day before the day on which the judgment or
award is given, (b) in the event that there is a change in the applicable conversion rate prevailing between the Business Day before the day on which the judgment or award is given and the date of payment, the Borrowers will pay to the
Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, such additional amounts (if any) as may be necessary, and the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, will pay to the Company such excess amounts (if any) as result from such change in
the rate of exchange, to assure that the amount paid on such date is the amount in such other currency, which when converted at the conversion rate described herein on the date of payment, is the amount then due in the currency required hereunder,
and (c) any amount due from the Borrowers under this Section 10.22 shall be due as a separate debt and shall not be affected by judgment or award being obtained for any other sum due.
110
10.23 Exchange Rates.
(a) Determination of Exchange Rates. Not later than 2:00 P.M. (London time) on each Calculation Date
or upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, if any Loans are outstanding on such date in any Foreign Currency, the Administrative Agent shall (i) determine the Exchange Rate as of such Calculation Date with respect to such Foreign Currencies
and (ii) give notice thereof to the Lenders and the Company. The Exchange Rate so determined shall become effective on the first Business Day immediately following the relevant Calculation Date or upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (a “Reset
Date”), shall remain effective until the next succeeding Reset Date, and shall for all purposes of this Agreement (other than Section 10.22 or any other provision expressly requiring the use of a current Exchange Rate) be the
Exchange Rates employed in determining the Dollar Equivalent of any amounts of Foreign Currencies.
(b) Notice of Foreign Currency Loans and Letters of Credit. Not later than 2:00 P.M. (London time) on
each Reset Date and each date on which Loans denominated in any Foreign Currencies are made or issued, if any such Loans are outstanding on such date, the Administrative Agent shall (i) determine the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate principal
amounts of the Loans denominated in Foreign Currencies and (ii) notify the Lenders and the Company of the results of such determination.
10.24 Market Disruption. Notwithstanding the satisfaction of all conditions referred to in
Article II, Article III and Article IV with respect to any Borrowing in any Foreign Currency, if (a) there shall occur on or prior to the date of such Borrowing any change in national or international financial, political or economic conditions or
currency exchange rates or exchange controls which would in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders make it impossible for the applicable Eurocurrency Rate Borrowing to be denominated in the Agreed Currency
specified by the Company or (b) the Dollar Equivalent amount of such Agreed Currency is not readily calculable, then the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Company and the Lenders and such Borrowing shall not be
denominated in such Foreign Currency, but shall be made on the date of such requested Borrowing in Dollars in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent specified in the Revolving Loan Notices as Base Rate Loans.
10.25 Unrestricted Subsidiaries. After the Closing Date, the Company shall have the right
to designate any Subsidiary (other than any Subsidiary Borrower or any former Subsidiary Borrower) from time to time as an “Unrestricted Subsidiary” for purposes of this Agreement, within 30 days after the creation or acquisition of such
Subsidiary, by giving written notice thereof to the Administrative Agent so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or, after giving pro forma effect thereto, would result therefrom (including under Section 7.05).
The Company may redesignate any Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom; provided, that such Restricted Subsidiary may not
thereafter be redesignated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary.
10.26 No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. Each
Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries’ understanding, that no Credit Party will have any obligations except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents and each Credit Party is acting
solely in the capacity of an arm’s length contractual counterparty to such Borrower with respect to the Loan Documents and the transaction contemplated therein and not as a financial advisor or a fiduciary to, or an agent of, such Borrower or any
other person. Each Borrower agrees that it will not assert any claim against any Credit Party based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by such Credit Party in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.
Additionally, each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that no Credit Party is advising such Borrower as to any legal, tax, investment, accounting, regulatory or any other matters in any jurisdiction. Each Borrower shall consult with its own
advisors concerning such matters and shall be responsible for making its own independent investigation and appraisal of the transactions contemplated hereby, and the Credit Parties shall have no responsibility or liability to any Borrower with
respect thereto.
111
Each Borrower further acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries’ understanding, that each Credit Party, together with its Affiliates, is a full
service securities or banking firm engaged in securities trading and brokerage activities as well as providing investment banking and other financial services. In the ordinary course of business, any Credit Party may provide investment banking
and other financial services to, and/or acquire, hold or sell, for its own accounts and the accounts of customers, equity, debt and other securities and financial instruments (including bank loans and other obligations) of, such Borrower, its
Subsidiaries and other companies with which such Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries may have commercial or other relationships. With respect to any securities and/or financial instruments so held by any Credit Party or any of its customers, all
rights in respect of such securities and financial instruments, including any voting rights, will be exercised by the holder of the rights, in its sole discretion.
In addition, each Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries’ understanding, that each Credit Party and its Affiliates may be providing
debt financing, equity capital or other services (including financial advisory services) to other companies in respect of which such Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries may have conflicting interests regarding the transactions described herein
and otherwise. No Credit Party will use confidential information obtained from any Borrower by virtue of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents or its other relationships with such Borrower in connection with the performance by such
Credit Party of services for other companies, and no Credit Party will furnish any such information to other companies. Each Borrower also acknowledges that no Credit Party has any obligation to use in connection with the transactions
contemplated by the Loan Documents, or to furnish to such Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, confidential information obtained from other companies.
10.27 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 EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document may be
subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of an EEA 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 an EEA Resolution Authority to any such
liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA 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;
112
(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments
of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution, its parent entity, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights
with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or
(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the
Write-Down and Conversion Powers of any EEA Resolution Authority.
ARTICLE XI.
COMPANY GUARANTY
11.01 Guaranty. The Company hereby agrees that the Company is jointly and severally liable
for, and hereby absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns, the full and prompt payment (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or
otherwise) and performance of, all Obligations owed or hereafter owing by each other Borrower. The Company agrees that its guaranty obligation hereunder (the “Guaranty Obligations”) is a continuing guaranty of payment and performance and
not of collection, that its obligations under this Article XI shall not be discharged until payment and performance, in full, of the Obligations has occurred, and that its obligations under this Article XI shall be absolute,
irrevocable and unconditional, irrespective of, and unaffected by,
(a) the genuineness, validity, regularity, enforceability or any future amendment of, or change in, this
Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any other agreement, document or instrument to which any Borrower is or may become a party;
(b) the absence of any action to enforce this Agreement (including this Article XI) or any other Loan
Document or the waiver or consent by the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender with respect to any of the provisions thereof;
(c) the existence, value or condition of, or failure to perfect a Lien, if any, against, any security for the
Obligations or any action, or the absence of any action, by the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender in respect thereof (including the release of any such security);
(d) the insolvency of any Borrower;
(e) any law or regulation of any jurisdiction or any other event affecting any term of a Guaranty Obligation;
or
(f) any other action or circumstances that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense
of a surety or guarantor.
The Company shall be regarded, and shall be in the same position, as principal debtor with respect to the Obligations guaranteed hereunder.
113
11.02 Waivers. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Company waives
presentment or protest to or demand of the other Borrowers of any of the Obligations, and also waives notice of acceptance of its guarantee and notice of protest for nonpayment. The Company expressly waives all rights it may have now or in the
future under any statute, or at common law, or at law or in equity, or otherwise, to compel the Administrative Agent, any L/C issuer or any Lender to marshal assets or to proceed in respect of the Obligations guaranteed hereunder against any other
Borrower, any other party or against any security for the payment and performance of the Obligations before proceeding against, or as a condition to proceeding against, the Company. It is agreed among each Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the
L/C Issuers, and the Lenders that the foregoing waivers are of the essence of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and that, but for the provisions of this Article XI and such waivers, the
Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders would decline to enter into this Agreement.
11.03 Benefit of Guaranty. The Company agrees that the provisions of this Article XI
are for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders and their respective successors, transferees, endorsees and assigns, and nothing herein contained shall impair, as between any other Borrower and the Administrative
Agent, the L/C Issuers or Lenders, the obligations of such other Borrower under the Loan Documents.
11.04 Waiver of Subrogation, Etc. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document until the Obligations of the Borrowers are paid in full and the Agreement has been terminated, the Company hereby expressly and irrevocably waives any and all rights at law or
in equity to subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification or set off and any and all defenses available to a surety, guarantor or accommodation co‑obligor. The Company acknowledges and agrees that this waiver is intended
to benefit the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders and shall not limit or otherwise affect the Company’s liability hereunder or the enforceability of this Article XI, and that the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and
the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns are intended third party beneficiaries of the waivers and agreements set forth in this Section 11.04.
11.05 Election of Remedies. If the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender may,
under applicable law, proceed to realize its benefits under any of the Loan Documents giving the Administrative Agent, such L/C Issuer or such Lender a Lien upon any collateral, whether owned by any Borrower or by any other Person, either by
judicial foreclosure or by non‑judicial sale or enforcement, the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender may, at its sole option, determine which of its remedies or rights it may pursue without affecting any of its rights and remedies
under this Article XI. If, in the exercise of any of its rights and remedies, the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender shall forfeit any of its rights or remedies, including its right to enter a deficiency judgment against
any Borrower or any other Person, whether because of any applicable laws pertaining to “election of remedies” or the like, each Borrower hereby consents to such action by the Administrative Agent, such L/C Issuer or such Lender and waives any claim
based upon such action, even if such action by the Administrative Agent, such L/C Issuer or such Lender shall result in a full or partial loss of any rights of subrogation that each Borrower might otherwise have had but for such action by the
Administrative Agent, such L/C Issuer or such Lender. Any election of remedies that results in the denial or impairment of the right of the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender to seek a deficiency judgment against any Borrower shall
not impair the Company’s obligation to pay the full amount of the Obligations. In the event the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender shall bid at any foreclosure or trustee’s sale or at any private sale permitted by law or the Loan
Documents, the Administrative Agent, such L/C Issuer or such Lender may bid all or less than the amount of the Obligations and the amount of such bid need not be paid by the Administrative Agent, such L/C Issuer or such Lender but shall be credited
against the Obligations. The amount of the successful bid at any such sale, whether the Administrative Agent, a L/C Issuer, a Lender or any other party is the successful bidder, shall be conclusively deemed to be the fair market value of the
collateral and the difference between such bid amount and the remaining balance of the Obligations shall be conclusively deemed to be the amount of the Obligations guaranteed under this Article XI, notwithstanding that any present or future
law or court decision or ruling may have the effect of reducing the amount of any deficiency claim to which the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender might otherwise be entitled but for such bidding at any such sale.
114
11.06 Liability Cumulative. The liability of the Company under this Article XI is
in addition to and shall be cumulative with all liabilities of the Company to the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or in respect of any Obligations or obligation of the other
Borrowers, without any limitation as to amount, unless the instrument or agreement evidencing or creating such other liability specifically provides to the contrary.
11.07 Reinstatement. The obligations of the Company under this Article XI shall
continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers or any Lender
upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of any Borrower, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, any Borrower or any substantial
part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.
