WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested that certain provisions of the Credit Agreement be amended or waived as set forth herein and the Lenders party hereto, constituting the Majority Lenders, have agreed so to amend or waive such provisions of the Credit Agreement;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the above premises and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Borrower and the Lenders party hereto hereby agree as follows:

SECTION 1. Defined Terms. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein (including in the preliminary statements hereto) have the meanings assigned to them in the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 2. Amendment. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 5 below, the Credit Agreement shall without further action be amended as follows:

(a) Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by amending and replacing the definition of “Hedging Agreement” set forth therein to read as follows:

“Hedging Agreement” means any agreement with respect to any swap, forward, future or derivative transaction or option or similar agreement involving, or settled by reference to, one or more rates, currencies, commodities, equity or debt instruments or securities, or economic, financial, pricing or equity indices or measures of economic, financial or pricing risk or value or any similar transaction or any combination of these transactions.

(b) The following definition is hereby added to Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement in the appropriate alphabetical order:

“Fourth Amendment” means the Fourth Amendment dated as of June 2, 2017 to the Credit Agreement (as amended by the First Amendment dated as of March 31, 2016, the Second Amendment dated as of September 7, 2016 and the Third Amendment dated as of March 31, 2017), by and among the Borrower, each of the Lenders party thereto and the Administrative Agent.

(c) Section 5.02(b)(vi) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by replacing such Section in its entirety with the following text:

(vi) Liens on properties or assets of the Borrower or any of its Significant Subsidiaries (not otherwise permitted by clauses (i) through (v) above) securing obligations (including, without limitation, obligations of the Borrower or any of its Significant Subsidiaries in respect of Hedging Agreements) in an aggregate amount not exceeding (as to the Borrower and all of its Significant Subsidiaries) US$200,000,000 at any one time outstanding.

SECTION 3. Waiver. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders party hereto, constituting the Majority Lenders, hereby waive any Default or Event of Default that has arisen pursuant to the Credit Agreement as a result of the provision of cash collateral by the Borrower prior to the date hereof to secure obligations under Hedging Agreements, in each case, to the extent that a Default or Event of Default would not have occurred after giving effect to this Amendment.

SECTION 4. Representations and Warranties. The Borrower represents and warrants to the Lenders that:

(a) This Amendment has been duly executed and delivered by the Borrower and (assuming due execution by the parties hereto other than the Borrower) constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

(b) The representations and warranties set forth in Section 4.01 of the Credit Agreement (except the Excluded Representations) are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Amendment Effective Date (as defined below), before and after giving effect to this Amendment, as though made on and as of the Amendment Effective Date.

(c) As of the Amendment Effective Date, after giving effect to this Amendment, no event has occurred and is continuing that constitutes a Default.

SECTION 5. Effectiveness of Amendment. This Amendment shall become effective as of the first date (the “Amendment Effective Date”) on which the Administrative Agent shall have executed this Amendment and shall have received counterparts hereof duly executed and delivered by the Borrower and the Lenders constituting the Majority Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders in writing of the Amendment Effective Date and such notice shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error.

SECTION 6. Expenses. The Borrower agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection with this Amendment, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of Cravath, Swaine & Xxxxx LLP, counsel for the Administrative Agent, in each case to the extent provided in Section 8.04(a) of the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 7. Effect of Amendment. Except as expressly set forth herein, this Amendment shall not by implication or otherwise limit, impair, constitute a waiver of, or otherwise affect the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lenders or the Lenders under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, and shall not alter, modify, amend or in any way affect any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, all of which, as amended hereby, are ratified and affirmed in all respects and shall continue in full force and effect. Nothing herein shall be deemed to entitle any Credit Party to a consent to, or a waiver, amendment, modification or other change of, any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document in similar or different circumstances. On and after the Amendment Effective Date, each reference in the Credit Agreement to “this Agreement”, “herein”, “hereunder”, “hereto”, “hereof” and words of similar import shall, unless the context otherwise requires, refer to the Credit Agreement as amended hereby, and each reference to the Credit Agreement in any other Loan Document shall be deemed to be a reference to the Credit Agreement as amended hereby.

SECTION 8. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Amendment by telecopy or other electronic means (including .pdf email transmittal) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Amendment.

SECTION 9. Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction, Etc. The provisions of Sections 8.07 and 8.11 of the Credit Agreement shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to this Amendment as if set forth in full herein.
