n) | With respect to Section 6.4 (Asset Sales) of the Credit Agreement: |

For purposes of this provision, each of the following will be deemed to be cash:
(i) any liabilities, as shown on the Borrower’s most recent consolidated balance sheet (or as would be shown on the Borrower’s consolidated balance sheet as of the date of such Asset Sale), of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than contingent liabilities and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated in right of payment to the Term Loans or any Guarantee of the Term Loans) that are repaid and discharged by the transferee of any such assets, or assumed by the transferee of any such assets pursuant to a novation agreement that releases the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary from further liability;
(ii) any securities, notes or other obligations received by the Borrower, or any such Restricted Subsidiary, from such transferee that are converted by the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash, Cash Equivalents or Replacement Assets within 90 days after such Asset Sale, to the extent of the cash, Cash Equivalents or Replacement Assets received in that conversion; and

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the 75% limitation referred to above shall be deemed satisfied with respect to any Asset Sale in which the cash, Cash Equivalents or Replacement Assets portion of the consideration received therefrom, determined in accordance with the foregoing provision on an after-tax
8
basis, is equal to or greater than what the after-tax proceeds would have been had such Asset Sale complied with the aforementioned 75% limitation.
Within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale, the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary may apply an amount equal to such Net Proceeds:
(a) to purchase Replacement Assets; or
(b) to prepay, repay, defease, redeem, purchase or otherwise retire Indebtedness and other obligations under a Credit Facility or Indebtedness secured by property that is subject to such Asset Sale (provided that, if such property constitutes Collateral, such Credit Facility or other Indebtedness is secured on a pari passu basis with, or senior basis to, the Senior Lien Term Loans with respect to such property) and, if the Indebtedness repaid is revolving credit Indebtedness, to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto; provided, that if such property constitutes Collateral and such other Credit Facility or other Indebtedness is not secured an a senior basis to the Senior Lien Term Loans with respect to such property, the Senior Lien Term Loans shall be prepaid on at least a ratable basis (based on principal amount outstanding) with such other Credit Facility or other Indebtedness; or
(c) if the assets subject to such Asset Sale are the property or assets of a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor, to prepay, repay, defease, redeem, purchase or otherwise retire Indebtedness of such Restricted Subsidiary or Indebtedness of any other Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor, other than Indebtedness owed to the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale, the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary enters into a binding written agreement committing the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary, subject to customary conditions, to an application of funds of the kind described in clause (1) above, the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary shall be deemed not to be in violation of the preceding paragraph so long as such application of funds is consummated within 545 days of the receipt of such Net Proceeds.
Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds of an Asset Sale, the Borrower may temporarily reduce revolving credit borrowings or otherwise use the Net Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by this Agreement.
An amount equal to any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as provided in the third paragraph of this Section 6.4 will, at the end of the period provided for such application or investment, constitute “Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $100.0 million, within 20 days thereof, the Borrower shall apply the entire aggregate amount of unutilized Excess Proceeds (not only the amount in excess of $100.0 million) in accordance with, and to the extent required by, Section 2.14(b), and thereupon the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero.
9
o) | With respect to Section 6.6 (Liens) of the Credit Agreement: |
The Borrower will not, and will not permit any Guarantor Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, or assume or suffer to exist any Lien securing Indebtedness upon any asset now owned or hereafter acquired, except Permitted Liens. Any Liens permitted pursuant to clauses (a), (l) and (ff) of the definition of Permitted Liens may be pari passu with or junior to the liens securing the Senior Lien Term Loans and other indebtedness permitted to be incurred under this Agreement, pursuant to a Senior Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement (or Senior/Junior Intercreditor Agreement, as applicable) or, if requested by the Borrower, other customary intercreditor arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall enter into such Senior Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement (or Senior/Junior Intercreditor Agreement, as applicable) or other intercreditor arrangements with respect to the obligations secured by such Liens if requested by the Borrower.
p) | With respect to Section 6.7 (Business Activities) of the Credit Agreement: |
Business Activities. The Borrower will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, engage in any business other than Permitted Businesses, except to such extent as would not be material to the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole. [Reserved.]

a) | adding a new definition to Section 1.1 (Defined Terms) in the proper alphabetical order as follows: |
“Fifth Amendment Effective Date” means March 29, 2018.
b) | adding a new Section 1.9 (LIBOR Replacement) to the end of Section 1 (Definitions) as follows: |
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, if the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent that, in its determination:
(a) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR Rate for any requested Interest Period, including, without limitation, because the Interpolated Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary, or
(b) the administrator of the Interpolated 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 Rate or the LIBOR Screen Rate
10
shall no longer be made available, or used for determining the interest rate of loans,
then, reasonably promptly after receipt by the Administrative Agent of such notice, the Borrower may request that the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) to an amendment to this Agreement to replace the LIBOR Rate with an alternative benchmark rate (including any mathematical or other adjustments to the benchmark (if any) incorporated therein), giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar U.S. dollar denominated credit facilities for such alternative benchmarks, together with any reasonably necessary conforming changes.

11
guarantees, pledges and grants of security interests, as applicable, under each of the Loan Documents to which it is party, and agrees that, notwithstanding the effectiveness of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, such guarantees, pledges and grants of security interests shall continue to be in full force and effect and shall accrue to the benefit of the Secured Parties. Each of the Reaffirming Loan Parties agrees that, neither the modification of the Credit Agreement effected pursuant to the Agreement nor the execution, delivery, performance or effectiveness of this Agreement (a) impairs the validity, effectiveness or priority of Liens granted pursuant to any Loan Document, and such Liens continue unimpaired with the same priority to secure repayment of all Obligations (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement), whether heretofore or hereafter incurred or (b) require that any new filings be made or other action taken to perfect or to maintain the perfection of such Liens. Each of the Reaffirming Loan Parties further agrees to take any action that may be required or that is reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to effect the purposes of this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or the Loan Documents and hereby reaffirms its obligations under each provision of each Loan Document to which it is party.
