WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested that the Lenders and the Administrative Agent agree that each Departing Lender shall cease to be a party to the Original Credit Agreement as evidenced by its execution and delivery of its respective signature page to this Amendment, and, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders signatory hereto agree, on the terms set forth herein;

WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested that the Lenders and the Administrative Agent amend certain provisions of the Original Credit Agreement, and, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth herein, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders signatory hereto are willing to do so, on the terms set forth herein; and

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by the parties hereto, the parties hereto agree as follows:

Section 1. Outstanding Term Loans; Reallocation.

(a) Pursuant to the Original Credit Agreement, certain of the Existing Lenders made “Loans” (as defined in the Original Credit Agreement) denominated in Dollars to the Borrower. Such “Loans” shall be continued as, and shall constitute Loans under the Amended Credit Agreement. The Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that as of the First Amendment Date, the outstanding principal balance of the Loans is set forth on Schedule I and shall for all purposes under the Amended Credit Agreement constitute and be referred to as Loans under the Amended Credit Agreement, without constituting a novation, but in all cases subject to the terms and conditions applicable to the Loans under the Amended Credit Agreement. Once repaid, the principal amount of the Loans (or any portion thereof) may not be reborrowed.

(b) The Administrative Agent, the Borrower and each Lender (including each New Lender) agree that upon the effectiveness of this Amendment, the principal amount of all outstanding Loans shall be reallocated among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Loans (determined in accordance with the amount of each such Lender’s Loan set forth on Schedule I hereto). In order to effect such reallocations, any New Lender and each other Lender whose Loan exceeds its “Loan” under the Original Credit Agreement immediately prior to the effectiveness of this Amendment (each, an “Assignee Lender”) shall be deemed to have purchased at par a portion of all right, title and interest in, and all obligations in

respect of, the “Loan” under the Original Credit Agreement of the Departing Lenders who shall cease to be a “Lender” under the Amended Credit Agreement and each other Lender whose Loan will be less than its “Loan” under the Original Credit Agreement immediately prior to the effectiveness of this Amendment (each, an “Assignor Lender”) as may be necessary such that, after giving effect to the payment referenced in Section 3(i) below, the outstanding principal amount of the Loan of each Lender will be as set forth on Schedule I attached hereto. Such purchases shall be deemed to have been effected by way of, and subject to the terms and conditions of, Assignment and Assumptions without the payment of any related assignment fee, and, except for replacement Notes to be provided to the Assignee Lenders and, if applicable, the Assignor Lenders, in the principal amounts of their respective Loans upon the effectiveness of this Amendment, no other documents or instruments shall be, or shall be required to be, executed in connection with such assignments (all of which are hereby waived). The Assignee Lenders shall make the proceeds of such purchases available to the Administrative Agent who shall then make such amounts of the proceeds of such purchases available to the Assignor Lenders as is necessary to purchase in full at par the Loan owing to the Assignor Lender.

Section 2. Specific Amendments to the Original Credit Agreement. As of the First Amendment Date, the parties hereto agree that the Original Credit Agreement shall be amended as follows:

(a) The Original Credit Agreement is amended by deleting the definitions of “Benchmark Transition Start Date” and “Federal Reserve Bank of New York’s Website” contained in Section 1.1. thereof.

(b) The Original Credit Agreement is further amended by restating the definitions of “Applicable Margin”, “Benchmark Replacement”, “Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes”, “Benchmark Replacement Date”, “Benchmark Transition Event”, “Benchmark Unavailability Period”, “Early Opt-in Election”, “Fee Letter”, “Loans”, “Maturity Date”, “Relevant Governmental Body”, “Sanctioned Country”, “Sanctioned Person”, “Sanctions”, “SOFR”, “Term SOFR”, and “Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement” contained in Section 1.1. thereof in their entirety as follows:

“Applicable Margin” means the percentage rate set forth in the table below corresponding to the level (each a “Level”) into which the Borrower’s Credit Rating then falls. As of the First Amendment Date, the Applicable Margin is determined based on Level 2. Any change in the Borrower’s Credit Rating which would cause it to move to a different Level shall be effective as of the first Business Day of the first calendar month immediately following receipt by the Administrative Agent of written notice delivered by the Borrower in accordance with Section 8.4.(n) that the Borrower’s Credit Rating has changed; provided, however, if the Borrower has not delivered the notice required by such Section but the Administrative Agent becomes aware that the Borrower’s Credit Rating has changed, then the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, adjust the Level by written notice to the Borrower (provided, however, that the Administrative Agent’s failure to give such notice shall not change the effectiveness of the adjustment of the Level) effective as of the first Business Day of the first calendar month following the date the Administrative Agent becomes aware that the Borrower’s Credit Rating has changed. During any period that the Borrower has received two Credit Ratings that are not equivalent, the Applicable Margin shall be determined based on the Level corresponding to the higher of such two Credit Ratings unless the difference in the Credit Ratings is greater than one ratings level, in which case the Applicable Margin shall be determined by reference to the ratings level immediately below the higher of the two Credit Ratings. During any period for which the Borrower has received a Credit Rating from only one Rating Agency, then the Applicable Margin shall be determined based on such Credit Rating. During any period that the Borrower has not received a Credit Rating from any Rating Agency, the Applicable Margin shall be determined based on Level 6. The provisions of this definition shall be subject to Section 2.5.(c).


Level	Borrower’s Credit Rating (S&P/Xxxxx’x or equivalent)	Applicable Margin for all LIBOR Loans			Applicable Margin for all Base Rate Loans
1	A/A2 (or equivalent) or better		0.750	%		0.750	%
2	A-/A3 (or equivalent)		0.800	%		0.800	%

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

(3) the sum of: (a) the alternate benchmark rate that has been selected by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower as the replacement for the then-current Benchmark for the applicable Corresponding Tenor giving due consideration to (i) any selection or recommendation of a replacement benchmark rate or the mechanism for determining such a rate by the Relevant Governmental Body or (ii) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a benchmark rate as a replacement for the then-current Benchmark for U.S. Dollar-denominated syndicated credit facilities at such time and (b) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment;

provided that, in the case of clause (1), such Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement is displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion; provided, further, that, with respect to a Term SOFR Transition Event, on the applicable Benchmark Replacement Date, the “Benchmark Replacement” shall revert to and shall be determined as set forth in clause (1) of this definition. If the Benchmark Replacement as determined pursuant to clause (1), (2) or (3) above would be less than the Floor, the Benchmark Replacement will be deemed to be the Floor for the purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

“Benchmark Replacement Adjustment” means, with respect to any replacement of the then-current Benchmark with an Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for any applicable Available Tenor for any setting of such Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement:

(1)

for purposes of clauses (1) and (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement,” the first alternative set forth in the order below that can be determined by the Administrative Agent:

(a)

the spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) as of the Reference Time such Benchmark Replacement is first set for such Available Tenor that has been selected or recommended by the Relevant Governmental Body for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for the applicable Corresponding Tenor;

(b)

the spread adjustment (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) as of the Reference Time such Benchmark Replacement is first set for such Available Tenor that would apply to the fallback rate for a derivative transaction referencing the ISDA Definitions to be effective upon an index cessation event with respect to such Benchmark for the applicable Corresponding Tenor; and

(2)

for purposes of clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement,” the spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) that has been selected by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower for the applicable Corresponding Tenor giving due consideration to (i) any selection or recommendation of a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement by the Relevant Governmental Body on the applicable Benchmark Replacement Date or (ii) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for U.S. Dollar-denominated syndicated credit facilities;

provided that, (x) in the case of clause (1) above, such adjustment is displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such Benchmark Replacement Adjustment from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion and (y) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate, more than one tenor of such Benchmark is available as of the applicable Benchmark Replacement Date and the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement will not be a term rate, the Available Tenor of such Benchmark for purposes of this definition of “Benchmark Replacement Adjustment” shall be deemed to be the Available Tenor that has approximately the same length (disregarding business day adjustments) as the payment period for interest calculated with reference to such Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement.

appropriate to reflect the adoption and implementation of such Benchmark Replacement and to permit the administration thereof by the Administrative Agent in a manner substantially consistent with market practice (or, if the Administrative Agent decides that adoption of any portion of such market practice is not administratively feasible or if the Administrative Agent determines that no market practice for the administration of such Benchmark Replacement exists, in such other manner of administration as the Administrative Agent decides is reasonably necessary in connection with the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents).

(1)

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

(2)

in the case of clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition Event,” the date determined by the Administrative Agent, which date shall promptly follow the date of the public statement or publication of information referenced therein;

(4)

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

For the avoidance of doubt, (i) if the event giving rise to the Benchmark Replacement Date occurs on the same day as, but earlier than, the Reference Time in respect of any determination, the Benchmark Replacement Date will be deemed to have occurred prior to the Reference Time for such determination and (ii) the “Benchmark Replacement Date” will be deemed to have occurred in the case of clause (1) or (2) with respect to any Benchmark upon the occurrence of the applicable event or events set forth therein with respect to all then-current Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof).

“Benchmark Transition Event” means the occurrence of one or more of the following events with respect to the then-current Benchmark:

(1)

a public statement or publication of information by or on behalf of the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) announcing that such administrator has ceased or will cease to provide all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof), permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide any Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or such component thereof);

(3)

a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent announcing that all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) are no longer representative.

The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to paragraph (e) below and (v) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to clauses (b) through (f) of this Section 4.2, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to clauses (b) through (f) of this Section 4.2 (including in the definitions of defined terms used in such clauses).

(e) Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any request for a Loan bearing interest based on USD LIBOR, conversion to or continuation of Loans bearing interest based on USD LIBOR to be made, converted or continued during

any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Loan of or conversion to Loans bearing interest at a rate based on the Base Rate. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of the Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of the Base Rate.

(k) The Original Credit Agreement is further amended by adding a new clause (f) to Section 4.2 thereof as follows:

(f) Secondary Term SOFR Conversion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document and subject to the proviso below in this paragraph, if a Term SOFR Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (i) the applicable Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder or under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting (the “Secondary Term SOFR Conversion Date”) and subsequent Benchmark settings, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document; and (ii) Loans outstanding on the Secondary Term SOFR Conversion Date bearing interest based on the then-current Benchmark shall be deemed to have been converted to Loans bearing interest at the Benchmark Replacement with a tenor approximately the same length as the interest payment period of the then-current Benchmark; provided that, this paragraph (f) shall not be effective unless the Administrative Agent has delivered to the Lenders and the Borrower a Term SOFR Notice.

(l) The Original Credit Agreement is further amended by restating the first sentence of Section 5.2 thereof in its entirety as follows:

The obligations of Lenders to make the Loans are subject to the further conditions precedent that: (a) no Default or Event of Default shall exist as of the date of the making of the Loans or would exist immediately after giving effect thereto; (b) the representations and warranties made or deemed made by the Borrower and each other Loan Party in the Loan Documents to which any of them is a party, shall be true and correct in all material respects (except in the case of a representation or warranty qualified by materiality, in which case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all respects) on and as of the date of the making of the Loans with the same force and effect as if made on and as of such date except to the extent that such representations and warranties expressly relate solely to an earlier date (in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material respects (except in the case of a representation or warranty qualified by materiality, in which case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all respects) on and as of such earlier date) and except for changes in factual circumstances not prohibited hereunder; and (c) with respect to Loans made available under Section 2.16., the Administrative Agent shall have received a timely Notice of Borrowing for such Loans.

(m) The Original Credit Agreement is further amended by restating Section 6.1(x)(i) thereof in its entirety as follows:

(i) None of (i) the Borrower, any Subsidiary, any of their respective directors, officers, or, to the knowledge of the Borrower or such Subsidiary, any of their respective employees or Affiliates, or (ii) any agent or representative of the Borrower or any Subsidiary that will act in any capacity in connection with or benefit from this Agreement, (A) is a Sanctioned Person or the subject or target of any Sanctions, (B) is owned or controlled by or is acting on behalf of a Sanctioned Person, (C) has its assets located in a Sanctioned Country, (D) is under administrative, civil or criminal investigation for an alleged violation of, or received notice from or made a voluntary disclosure to any governmental entity regarding a possible violation of, Anti-Corruption Laws, Anti-Money Laundering Laws or Sanctions by a governmental authority that enforces Sanctions or any Anti-Corruption Laws or Anti-Money Laundering Laws, or (E) directly or indirectly derives revenues from investments in, or transactions with, Sanctioned Persons.

(n) The Original Credit Agreement is further amended by restating the second sentence of Section 6.2 thereof in its entirety as follows:

All representations and warranties made under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to be made at and as of the Agreement Date, the Effective Date, the date on which any extension of the Maturity Date is effectuated pursuant to Section 2.13., the date on which any Additional Loans are effected pursuant to Section 2.16. and at and as of the date of the occurrence of each Credit Event, except to the extent that such representations and warranties expressly relate solely to an earlier date (in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material respects (except in the case of a representation or warranty qualified by materiality, in which case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all respects) on and as of such earlier date) and except for changes in factual circumstances not prohibited hereunder.

(o) The Original Credit Agreement is further amended by adding a new Section 11.10 thereof as follows:

Section 11.10. Erroneous Payments.

(a) Each Lender hereby agrees that (i) if the Administrative Agent notifies such Lender that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds received by such Lender from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Lender (whether or not known to such Lender (whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees or otherwise), individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”) and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Lender shall promptly, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect, and (ii) such Lender shall not assert any right or claim to the Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payments received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(b) Without limiting immediately preceding clause (a), each Lender hereby further agrees that if it receives an Erroneous Payment from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (i) that is in an amount different than (other than a de minimis difference), or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such Erroneous Payment (an “Erroneous Payment Notice”), or (ii) that was not preceded or accompanied by an Erroneous Payment Notice, it shall be on notice that, in each such case, an error has been made with respect to such Erroneous Payment. Each Lender further agrees that, in each such case, or if it otherwise becomes aware an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) may have been sent in error, such Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such occurrence and, upon demand from the Administrative Agent, it shall promptly, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) that was received by such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect.

(c) The Borrower and each other Loan Party hereby agree that (i) in the event an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Lender that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights of such Lender with respect to such amount and (ii) an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Borrower or any other Loan Party, except to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds of the Borrower or any other Loan Party.

(d) Each party’s obligations under this Section 11.10 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document.

(p) The Original Credit Agreement is further amended by replacing Schedule 6.1(i) thereto with Schedule 6.1(i) attached hereto.

(q) The Original Credit Agreement is further amended by replacing Exhibit C thereto with Exhibit C attached hereto.

This Amendment has been duly executed and delivered by the duly authorized officers of the Borrower, and each of this Amendment and the Amended Credit Agreement is a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with its respective terms, except as the same may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, and other similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and the availability of equitable remedies for the enforcement of certain obligations (other than the payment of principal) contained herein or therein and as may be limited by equitable principles generally.

(b)

Binding Effect. This Amendment and the Amended Credit Agreement constitute valid and binding agreements of the Borrower, enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with their terms.

(c)

No Default. No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing as of the date hereof nor will exist immediately after giving effect to this Amendment.

(d)

No Material Adverse Change. Since December 31, 2020, there has not been any material adverse condition or material adverse change in or affecting, nor has any circumstance or condition occurred that could reasonably be expected to result in a material adverse change in, or have a material adverse effect on, the business, assets, liabilities, financial condition or results of operations of the Borrower and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

Section 5. Reaffirmation of Representations. The Borrower hereby repeats and reaffirms all representations and warranties made or deemed made by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in the Original Credit Agreement as amended by this Amendment and the other Loan Documents on and as of the date hereof with the same force and effect as if such representations and warranties were set forth in this Amendment in full and such representations and warranties are true and correct in all material respects (except in the case of a representation or warranty qualified by materiality, in which case such representation or warranty is true and correct in all respects) on and as of the date hereof immediately after giving effect to this Amendment except to the extent that such representations and warranties expressly relate solely to an earlier date (in which case such representations and warranties were true and correct in all material respects (except in the case of a representation or warranty qualified by materiality, in which case such representation or warranty was true and correct in all respects) on and as of such earlier date) and except for changes in factual circumstances not prohibited thereunder.

Section 6. Representations and Warranties of New Lenders. Upon the effectiveness of this Amendment, each New Lender acknowledges and agrees that it shall be a Lender under the Amended Credit Agreement having a Commitment in the amount, if any, set forth for such New Lender on Schedule I hereto as such New Lender’s “Loan”. Accordingly, each New Lender shall have all of the rights and obligations of a Lender under the Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect to such New Lender’s Commitment. Each New Lender (a) represents and warrants that (i) it has full power and authority,

and has taken all actions necessary, to execute and deliver this Amendment and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and to become a Lender under the Amended Credit Agreement, (ii) it is sophisticated with respect to decisions to acquire assets of the type represented by such New Lender’s Loan, and either it, or the person exercising discretion in making its decision with respect to such New Lender’s Loan is experienced in such matters, (iii) it has received a copy of the Amended Credit Agreement, and has received or has been accorded the opportunity to receive copies of the most recent financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 8.1 or 8.2 thereof, as applicable, and such other documents and information as it deems appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Amendment and to provide such New Lender’s Loan, and (iv) it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Amendment and to provide such New Lender’s Loan; and (b) agrees that (i) it will, independently and without reliance on the Administrative Agent or any Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under the Loan Documents, and (ii) it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of the Loan Documents are required to be performed by it as a Lender.

Section 7. Additional Arranger. The parties hereto hereby acknowledge the appointment of TD Bank, N.A. as a Joint Lead Arranger and Syndication Agent in respect of the arrangement of the Loans on the First Amendment Date.

Section 8. Departing Lenders. The parties hereto, including each Departing Lender, hereby acknowledge and agree that on the First Amendment Date, the one or more term loans previously made to the Borrower by each Departing Lender under the Original Credit Agreement which remain outstanding immediately prior to the First Amendment Date shall be repaid in full under the Original Credit Agreement (accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest thereon) on a non-pro rata basis with the “Lenders” under and as defined in the Original Credit Agreement, and each Departing Lender shall not be a Lender or otherwise a party to the Amended Credit Agreement from and after the First Amendment Date. Each Departing Lender, the Lenders and the other parties hereto consent (which consent shall be deemed effective under the Original Credit Agreement) to such non-pro rata payment. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 8 shall not create any obligation on the part of the Borrower in addition to the payment obligation set forth in Section 3(i) hereof.

Section 9. Certain References. Each reference to the Original Credit Agreement in any of the Loan Documents shall be deemed to be a reference to the Amended Credit Agreement. This Amendment is a Loan Document.

Section 10. Costs and Expenses. The Borrower shall reimburse the Administrative Agent for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, negotiation and execution of this Amendment and the other agreements and documents executed and delivered in connection herewith.

Section 11. Benefits. This Amendment shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 12. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS EXECUTED, AND TO BE FULLY PERFORMED, IN SUCH STATE.

Section 13. Effect; Ratification. Except as expressly herein amended, the terms and conditions of the Original Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents remain in full force and effect. The amendments contained herein shall be deemed to have prospective application from and after the First Amendment Date only. The Amended Credit Agreement is hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects. Nothing in this Amendment shall limit, impair or constitute a waiver of the rights, powers or remedies available to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders under the Amended Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document.

Section 14. Release. In consideration of the amendments contained herein, the Borrower and each other Loan Party hereby waives and releases the Administrative Agent and each Lender from any and all claims and defenses, whether known or unknown, with respect to the Amended Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby.

Section 15. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and shall be binding upon all parties, their successors and assigns.
