If Loan Parties shall fail to deliver the financial statements, certificates and/or other information required under Section 9.8 by the date required pursuant to such
section, each Applicable Margin shall be conclusively presumed to equal the highest Applicable Margin specified in the pricing table set forth above until the date of delivery of such financial statements, certificates and/or other information,
at which time the rate will be adjusted based upon the Total Leverage Ratio reflected in such statements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no downward adjustment in any Applicable Margin shall be made on any
Adjustment Date on which any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, immediately and automatically upon the occurrence of any Event of Default under Sections 10.1,
10.5(i) (solely with respect to a failure to comply with Section 6.5) or 10.7, each Applicable Margin shall increase to and equal the highest Applicable Margin specified in the pricing table set forth above, until the date (if any) on which
such Event of Default shall be waived in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, at which time the rate will be adjusted based upon the Total Leverage Ratio reflected on the most recently delivered financial statements and Compliance
Certificate delivered by the Loan Parties to Agent pursuant to Section 9.8. Any increase in interest rates and/or other fees payable by the Loan Parties under the Loan Documents pursuant to the provisions of the foregoing sentence shall be in
addition to and independent of any increase in such interest rates and/or other fees resulting from the occurrence of any Event of Default (including, if applicable, any Event of Default arising from a breach of Section 9.8 hereof) and/or the
effectiveness of the Default Rate provisions of Section 3.1 hereof or the default fee rate provisions of Section 3.2 hereof.
If, as a result of any restatement of, or other adjustment to, the financial statements of the Loan Parties on a Consolidated Basis or for any other reason, Agent
determines that (a) the Total Leverage Ratio as previously calculated as of any applicable date for any applicable period was inaccurate, and (b) a proper calculation of the Total Leverage Ratio for any such period would have resulted in
different pricing for such period, then (i) if the proper calculation of the Total Leverage Ratio would have resulted in a higher interest rate and/or fees (as applicable) for such period, automatically and immediately without the necessity of
any demand or notice by Agent or any other affirmative act of any party, the interest accrued on the applicable outstanding Advances and/or the amount of the fees accruing for such period under the provisions of this Agreement and the Other
Documents shall be deemed to be retroactively increased by, and Loan Parties shall be obligated within three (3) days to pay to Agent for the ratable benefit of Lenders an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that
should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period; and (ii) if the proper calculation of the Total Leverage Ratio would have resulted in a lower interest rate and/or fees (as applicable)
for such period, then the interest accrued on the applicable outstanding Advances and the amount of the fees accruing for such period under the provisions of this Agreement and the Other Documents shall be deemed to remain unchanged, and Agent
and Lenders shall have no obligation to repay interest or fees to the Loan Parties; provided, that, if as a result of any restatement or other event or other determination by Agent a proper calculation of the Total Leverage Ratio would
have resulted in a higher interest rate and/or fees (as applicable) for one or more periods and a lower interest rate and/or fees (as applicable) for one or more other periods (due to the shifting of income or expenses from one period to
another period or any other reason), then the amount payable by the Loan Parties pursuant to clause (i) above shall be based upon the excess, if any, of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for all applicable periods over
the amounts of interest and fees actually paid for such periods.
