Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under Applicable Law, that each Lender so purchasing a portion of another Lender’s Advances may exercise all rights of payment (including rights of set-off) with respect to such portion as fully as if such Lender were the direct holder of such portion, and the obligations owing to each such purchasing Lender in respect of such participation and such purchased portion of any other Lender’s Advances shall be part of the Obligations secured by the Collateral, and the obligations owing to each such purchasing Lender in respect of such participation and such purchased portion of any other Lender’s Advances shall be part of the Obligations secured by the Collateral. 2.7 Termination of Commitments. (a) The Initial Term Loan Commitment of each Initial Term Loan Lender shall be automatically and permanently reduced to $0 on the Closing Date upon the making of such Lender’s Initial Term Loans to the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.3(a)

Administrative Agent shall conditionally credit Xxxxxxxx’s Account for each item of payment on the next Business Day after the Business Day on which such item of payment is received by Administrative Agent (and the Business Day on which each such item of payment is so credited shall be referred to, with respect to such item, as the “Application Date”). Administrative Agent is not, however, required to credit Xxxxxxxx’s Account for the amount of any item of payment which is unsatisfactory to Administrative Agent and it may charge Xxxxxxxx’s Account for the amount of any item of payment which is returned, for any reason whatsoever, to Administrative Agent unpaid. Subject to the foregoing, Xxxxxxxx agrees that for purposes of computing the interest charges under this Agreement, each item of payment received by Administrative Agent shall be deemed applied by it on account of the Obligations on its respective Application Date. All proceeds received by Administrative Agent shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Obligations in accordance with Section 11.5 hereof; provided, that, in the absence of any Event of Default, (I) payments matching specified scheduled payments then due shall be applied to those scheduled payments, (II) mandatory prepayments shall be applied as set forth in Section 2.20 hereof, and (III) during a Cash Dominion Period, cash in a Controlled Account shall be applied to the Obligations in accordance with Section 4.8 hereof.

Borrower shall promptly notify Administrative Agent of any such payment and/or prepayment of the Term Loans. Administrative Agent shall have the right, but not the obligation, to effectuate payment of any and all Obligations due and owing hereunder by charging Xxxxxxxx’s Account or by making Advances to the extent contemplated and permitted by Section 2.2 hereof.

If at any time the aggregate balance of outstanding Term Loans and/or Advances, taken as a whole, exceeds the maximum amount of such type of Term Loans and/or Advances, taken as a whole (as applicable), permitted hereunder, such excess Advances shall be paid promptly (but in any event within three (3) Business Days) without the necessity of any demand, at the Payment Office for distribution to the Initial Term Loan Lenders or Delayed Draw Term Loan Lenders, as applicable, whether or not a Default or an Event of Default has occurred. 2.10 Statement of Account. Administrative Agent shall maintain, in accordance with its customary procedures, a loan account (“Borrower’s Account”) in the name of Borrower in which shall be recorded the date and amount of each Advance made by Administrative Agent or Lenders and the date and amount of each payment in respect thereof; provided, however, the failure by Administrative Agent to record the date and amount of any Advance shall not adversely affect Administrative Agent or any Lender. Each month, with respect to Term SOFR Rate Loans having an Interest Period of one month, and each quarter with respect to Domestic Rate Loans and Term SOFR Rate Loans having an Interest Period of greater than one month, Administrative Agent shall send to Borrower a statement showing the accounting for the respective Advances made, payments made or credited in respect thereof, and other transactions between Administrative Agent, Lenders and Borrower during such applicable period; provided however, that the Administrative Agent shall provide Borrower with the balance of accrued interest on all Loans at the conclusion of each month. The statements provided hereunder shall be deemed correct and binding upon Borrower in the absence of manifest error and shall constitute an account stated between Xxxxxxx and Borrower, and as to Borrower, the records of Administrative Agent with respect to Xxxxxxxx’s Account shall be conclusive evidence absent manifest error of the amounts of Advances and other charges thereto and of payments applicable thereto, in each case unless Administrative Agent receives a written statement of Xxxxxxxx’s exceptions thereto within sixty (60) days after any such statement is received by Xxxxxxxx. 2.11 [Reserved]. 2.12 [Reserved]. 2.13 [Reserved]. 2.14 [Reserved]. 2.15 [Reserved]. 2.16 [Reserved]. 2.17 [Reserved]. 2.18 [Reserved]. 2.19 [Reserved]. 2.20 Mandatory Prepayments; Prepayment Premium.

- 51- following receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds, and until the date of payment, such proceeds shall be held in trust for Administrative Agent and Lenders. The foregoing shall not be deemed to be implied consent to any such sale otherwise prohibited by the terms and conditions hereof. Such repayments shall be applied to the Term Loans ratably thereto in the inverse order of maturity thereof (including the final installment thereof) until Paid in Full. To the extent any assets sold pursuant to this Section 2.20(a) constituted Collateral, any replacement assets purchased with any Net Cash Proceeds not used to repay the Advances shall also constitute Collateral. (b) Incurrence of Indebtedness. (i) In the event of any issuance or other incurrence of any Indebtedness (other than Permitted Indebtedness) by any Loan Party or any Subsidiary (other than a Subsidiary that constitutes an Excluded Subsidiary under clause (b) or (c) of such definition, or any Excluded Mortgage Subsidiary), Borrower shall, no later than the date of receipt by such Loan Party or such Subsidiary of the Net Cash Proceeds from such issuance or incurrence of Indebtedness, repay the Term Loans in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of such Net Cash Proceeds; provided, that the repayments described in this subsection (b) shall, be applied to Term Loans ratably thereto in the inverse order of maturity thereof (including the final installment thereof) until Paid in Full.

To the extent any Net Cash Proceeds received pursuant to this Section 2.20(c) are received on account of assets that constituted Collateral, any replacement assets purchased with any Net Cash Proceeds not used to repay the Advances shall also constitute Collateral. (d) Extraordinary Receipts. Upon receipt by the Borrower or any Subsidiary (other than a Subsidiary that constitutes an Excluded Subsidiary under clause (c) of such definition) of any Extraordinary Receipt not otherwise included in clauses (a) or (c) of this Section 2.20, the Borrower shall, repay the Advances in an amount equal to such Extraordinary Receipts, such repayments to be made promptly but in no event more than ten (10) Business Days following receipt of such Extraordinary Receipts.

(f) Change of Control. Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Borrower shall promptly (but in no event more than ten (10) Business Days following the occurrence of such Change of Control) pay to Administrative Agent an amount equal to the sum of (x) all outstanding Obligations as of the date of such payment plus (y) the Prepayment Premium.
- 52- (g) Prepayment Premium. Upon the occurrence of a (x) Prepayment Premium Trigger Event or (y) Change of Control, the payment or prepayment of the Term Loans required to be made as a result of such Prepayment Premium Trigger Event or Change of Control shall include the Prepayment Premium. Any Prepayment Premium shall be applied pro rata to the Term Loans. (h) Application of Mandatory Prepayments. Each prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.20(a) through (f) hereof shall (i) so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, be applied to the outstanding Term Loans in the manner set forth in this Section 2.20 and subject to Section 2.24 and (ii) if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, be applied in the manner set forth in Section 11.5 hereof. Each payment or prepayment of the Term Loans made in accordance with this Section 2.20 shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount prepaid through the date of prepayment and any amounts owing in respect of Term SOFR Rate Loans pursuant to Section 2.2(g) hereof and, as applicable, any premium.

Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 2.20, each Lender may reject all or a portion of its ratable share of any mandatory prepayment (such declined amounts, the “Declined Proceeds”) pursuant to clause (a) through (e) of this Section 2.20 by providing written notice (each, a “Rejection Notice”) to Administrative Agent and Borrower no later than 5:00 p.m. one (1) Business Day prior to the date of such prepayment as specified in the relevant notice. Each Rejection Notice from a given Lender shall specify the principal amount of the mandatory prepayment of Term Loans to be rejected by such Lender. If a Lender fails to deliver a Rejection Notice to Administrative Agent within the time frame specified above or such Rejection Notice fails to specify the principal amount of the Term Loans to be rejected, any such failure will be deemed an acceptance of the total amount of such mandatory repayment of Term Loans. Any Declined Proceeds shall be (1) offered to the Lenders not so declining such prepayment on a pro rata basis in accordance with the amounts of the Term Loans of such Lender (with such non- declining Lenders having the right to decline any prepayment with Declined Proceeds at the time and in the manner specified by the Administrative Agent) and (2) to the extent such non-declining Lenders elect to decline their ratable share of such Declined Proceeds, retained by Borrower. 2.21 Use of Proceeds. (a) The Borrower shall (i) use the proceeds of the Advances on the Closing Date, to fund the Transactions, and (ii) use the proceeds of any Advances at any time after the Closing Date to fund Permitted Existing Convertible Notes Repurchases or for general corporate purposes (excluding repurchases of Existing 2025 Convertible Notes or Existing 2027 Convertible Notes, in each case, in a transaction not constituting a Permitted Existing Convertible Notes Repurchase). (b) Without limiting the generality of Section 2.21(a) above, neither the Loan Parties nor any other Person which may in the future become party to this Agreement or the Other Documents as a Loan Party, intends to use nor shall they use any portion of the proceeds of the Advances, directly or indirectly, for any purpose in violation of Applicable Law (including Anti-Terrorism Laws). (c) The Borrower may use the ECF Retained Amount from time to time: (i) to prepay the Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.20(e) hereof, and (ii) to make Permitted Existing Convertible Notes Repurchases, to the extent permitted hereunder. 2.22 Defaulting Lender. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event any Delayed Draw Term Loan Lender is a Defaulting Lender, all rights and obligations hereunder of such
- 53- Defaulting Lender and of the other parties hereto shall be modified to the extent of the express provisions of this Section 2.22 so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender. (b) (i) Except as otherwise expressly provided for in this Section 2.22, Delayed Draw Term Loans shall be made pro rata from Delayed Draw Term Loan Lenders which are not Defaulting Lenders based on their respective Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment Percentages, and no Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment Percentage of any Delayed Draw Term Loan Lender or any pro rata share of any Delayed Draw Term Loans required to be advanced by any Delayed Draw Term Loan Lender shall be increased as a result of any Delayed Draw Term Loan Lender being a Defaulting Lender. Amounts received in respect of principal of any type of Delayed Draw Term Loans shall be applied to reduce such type of Delayed Draw Term Loans of each Delayed Draw Term Loan Lender (other than any Defaulting Lender) in accordance with their Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment Percentages; provided, that, Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to transfer to a Defaulting Lender any payments received by Administrative Agent in respect of such Defaulting Lender’s Delayed Draw Term Loans for Defaulting Lender’s benefit, nor shall a Defaulting Lender be entitled to the sharing of any payments hereunder (including any principal, interest or fees) in respect of its Delayed Draw Term Loans. Amounts payable to a Defaulting Lender in respect of its Delayed Draw Term Loans shall instead be paid to or retained by the Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent may hold the amount of such payments received or retained by it for the account of such Defaulting Lender. (ii) Fees pursuant to Section 3.3 or Section 3.4 hereof shall cease to accrue in favor of such Defaulting Lender. (c) [Reserved]. (d) Other than as expressly set forth in this Section 2.22, the rights and obligations of a Defaulting Lender (including the obligation to indemnify Administrative Agent) and the other parties hereto shall remain unchanged. Nothing in this Section 2.22 shall be deemed to release any Defaulting Lender from its obligations under this Agreement and the Other Documents, shall alter such obligations, shall operate as a waiver of any default by such Defaulting Lender hereunder, or shall prejudice any rights which Borrower, Administrative Agent or any Lender may have against any Defaulting Lender as a result of any default by such Defaulting Lender hereunder. (e) [Reserved]. (f) [Reserved]. (g) Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by Administrative Agent for the account of any Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 11.1 hereof or otherwise) shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to Administrative Agent hereunder; second, as Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default then exists), to the funding of any Delayed Draw Term Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by Administrative Agent; third, if so determined by Administrative Agent and Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released pro rata in order to satisfy potential future funding obligations of such Defaulting Lender to fund all or any portion of the Delayed Draw Term Loans under this Agreement; fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to Lenders, as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of
- 54- competent jurisdiction obtained by Borrower against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and sixth, to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided, that if (i) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of all or any portion of any Delayed Draw Term Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (ii) all or such portion of such Delayed Draw Term Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 8.1 hereof were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the portion of the Delayed Draw Term Loans of all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any portion of the Delayed Draw Term Loans owed to such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Delayed Draw Term Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments without giving effect to Section 2.22(i). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. (h) If Borrower and Administrative Agent agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, 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, that Delayed Draw Term Loan Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of the outstanding Delayed Draw Term Loans of the other Delayed Draw Term Loan Lenders or take such other actions as Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Delayed Draw Term Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the applicable Delayed Draw Term Loan Lenders in accordance with their Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment Percentage; provided, that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of Borrower while that Delayed Draw Term Loan 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 Delayed Draw Term Loan Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Delayed Draw Term Loan Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. 2.23 [Reserved]. 2.24 [Reserved]. III. INTEREST AND FEES. 3.1 Interest. Interest on Advances shall be payable in arrears (a) with respect to Advances consisting of Domestic Rate Loans, on the last Business Day of each quarter and (b) with respect to the portion of the Term Loans consisting of Term SOFR Rate Loans with an Interest Period of one, three or six months, at the end of each Interest Period; provided that with respect to any Term SOFR Rate Loans with an Interest Period of longer than three months, interest shall be payable at the end of each three month period during such Interest Period; provided further, that, in each case, all accrued and unpaid interest shall be due and payable at the end of the Term. Interest charges shall be computed on the actual principal amount of Advances outstanding during the month at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Term Loan Interest Rate (as applicable, the “Contract Rate”). Except as expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement, any Obligations (other than the Advances) that are not paid when due shall accrue interest at in respect of any such Obligations owing to any Term Loan Lender, the Term Loan Interest Rate applicable to Domestic Rate Loans, in each case subject to the provision of the final sentence of this Section 3.1 regarding the Default Rate. Whenever, subsequent to the Closing Date, the Alternate Base Rate is increased or decreased, the applicable Contract Rate shall be similarly changed without notice or demand of any kind by an amount equal to the amount of such change in the Alternate Base Rate during the time such change or changes remain in effect. The Term SOFR Rate shall be adjusted with respect to Term SOFR Rate Loans without notice or demand of any kind on the effective date of any change in the SOFR Reserve Percentage
- 55- as of such effective date. Upon and after the occurrence of an Event of Default, and during the continuation thereof, at the direction of (x) the Required Delayed Draw Term Loan Lenders, with respect to Obligations owing to the Delayed Draw Term Loan Lenders or (y) the Required Initial Term Loan Lenders, with respect to Obligations owing to the Initial Term Loan Lenders (or, in each case, in the case of any Event of Default under Section 10.1 or Section 10.7 hereof, immediately and automatically upon the occurrence of any such Event of Default without the requirement of any affirmative action by any party), all unpaid Obligations shall bear interest at the applicable Contract Rate plus two percent (2.0%) per annum (as applicable, the “Default Rate”) and shall be payable in cash on demand. 3.2 Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Delayed Draw Term Loan Lender in accordance with its Delayed Draw Term Loan Percentage, a commitment fee in an amount equal to 1.00% per annum on the undrawn portion of the Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments, which shall begin to accrue on the Closing Date until the Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment Expiration Date. The fees described in this Section 3.2 shall be due and payable (x) quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each fiscal quarter, commencing with the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2023 (for the quarterly period (or portion thereof) ended on such day for which no payment has been received) and (y) on the Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment Expiration Date (for the period ended on such date for which no payment has been received pursuant to clause (x) above). 3.3 [Reserved]. 3.4 Fee Letter. Borrower shall pay the amounts required to be paid in the Fee Letter in the manner and at the times required by the Fee Letter. 3.5 Computation of Interest and Fees. (a) Interest and fees hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and for the actual number of days elapsed. If any payment to be made hereunder becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and interest thereon shall be payable at the applicable Contract Rate during such extension. (b) If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial statements of the Borrower or for any other reason, the Borrower or the Lenders determine that (i) EBITDA as calculated by the Borrower as of any applicable date was inaccurate and (ii) a proper calculation of such ratio would have resulted in higher interest and/or fees for any period, the Borrower shall upon knowledge of such miscalculation provide notice to the Administrative Agent thereof, and shall be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders promptly on demand by the Administrative Agent (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, automatically and with any such demand by the Administrative Agent being excused), 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. This Section 3.5(b) shall not limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender under any other provision hereunder (including Article X). 3.6 Maximum Charges. In no event whatsoever shall interest and other charges charged hereunder exceed the highest rate permissible under Applicable Law. In the event interest and other charges as computed hereunder would otherwise exceed the highest rate permitted under Applicable Law: (i) the interest rates hereunder will be reduced to the maximum rate permitted under Applicable Law; (ii) such excess amount shall be first applied to any unpaid principal balance owed by Borrower; and (iii) if the then remaining excess amount is greater than the previously unpaid principal balance, Lenders shall promptly
- 56- refund such excess amount to Borrower and the provisions hereof shall be deemed amended to provide for such permissible rate. 3.7 Increased Costs. In the event that any Applicable Law or any Change in Law or compliance by any Lender (for purposes of this Section 3.7, the term “Lender” shall include Administrative Agent, any Lender and any corporation or bank controlling Administrative Agent, any Lender and the office or branch where Administrative Agent or any Lender (as so defined) makes or maintains any Term SOFR Rate Loans) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other financial, monetary or other authority, shall: (a) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of “Excluded Taxes”, and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on the Advances, this Agreement, any Term Loan Commitment or other Obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; (b) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, assessment, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits in or for the account of, advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, any office of Administrative Agent or any Lender, including pursuant to Regulation D of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System; or (c) impose on Administrative Agent or any Lender any other condition, loss or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or any Other Document or any Advance made by any Lender; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to the Administrative Agent or any Lender of making, converting to, continuing, renewing or maintaining its Advances hereunder by an amount that Administrative Agent or such Lender deems to be material or to reduce the amount of any payment (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) in respect of any of the Advances by an amount that Administrative Agent or such Lender deems to be material, then, in any case Borrower shall promptly pay Administrative Agent or such Lender, upon its demand, such additional amount as will compensate Administrative Agent or such Lender for such additional cost or such reduction, as the case may be; provided, that the foregoing shall not apply to increased costs which are reflected in the Term SOFR Rate, as the case may be. Administrative Agent or such Lender shall certify the amount of such additional cost or reduced amount to Borrower, and such certification shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 3.8 Upfront Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay on the Closing Date all the upfront or closing fees set forth in the Fee Letter. 3.9 Capital Adequacy. (a) In the event that Administrative Agent or any Lender shall have determined that any Applicable Law or guideline regarding capital adequacy, or any Change in Law or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Body, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by Administrative Agent or any Lender (for purposes of this Section 3.9, the term “Lender” shall include Administrative Agent or any Lender and any corporation or bank controlling Administrative Agent or any Lender and the office or branch where Administrative Agent or any Lender (as so defined) makes or maintains any Term SOFR Rate Loans) with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Administrative Agent or any Lender’s capital as a consequence of its obligations
- 57- hereunder to a level below that which Administrative Agent or such Lender could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration Administrative Agent’s and each Lender’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by Administrative Agent or any Lender to be material, then, from time to time, Borrower shall pay upon demand to Administrative Agent or such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Administrative Agent or such Lender for such reduction. In determining such amount or amounts, Administrative Agent or such Lender may use any reasonable averaging or attribution methods. The protection of this Section 3.9 shall be available to Administrative Agent and each Lender regardless of any possible contention of invalidity or inapplicability with respect to the Applicable Law, rule, regulation, guideline or condition. (b) A certificate of Administrative Agent or such Lender setting forth such amount or amounts as shall be necessary to compensate Administrative Agent or such Lender with respect to Section 3.9(a) hereof when delivered to Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 3.10 Taxes. (a) Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 3.10, the term “Applicable Law” includes FATCA. (b) Payment Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any Obligations of any Loan Party under this Agreement or any Other Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by Applicable Law. If any Applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Body in accordance with Applicable Law and, if and to the extent such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) any Recipient, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding for Indemnified Taxes been made. (c) Payment of Other Taxes by the Loan Parties. The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Body in accordance with Applicable Law, or at the option of Administrative Agent, promptly reimburse Administrative Agent for the payment of, any Other Taxes. (d) Indemnification by the Loan Parties. The Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) paid or payable by any Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient, as the case may be, and any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Body. A certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the basis and calculation of the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower by any Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent), or by Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. (e) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify Administrative Agent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes
- 58- attributable to such Xxxxxx’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 16.3(f) hereof relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register, and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement or any Other Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Body. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender hereunder or under any Other Document or otherwise payable by Administrative Agent to such Lender from any other source against any amount due to Administrative Agent under this subsection (e). (f) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Body pursuant to this Section 3.10, such Loan Party shall deliver to Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Body evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent. (g) Status of Lenders. (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments hereunder or under any Other Document shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation required by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as will enable Borrower or Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to withholding, backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Sections 3.10(g)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the applicable Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. (ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that Borrower is a U.S. Person, (A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or Administrative Agent), two (2) duly completed and executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding Tax; (B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable: (1) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under this

Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the Closing Date. (iii) Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify Borrower and Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.
- 60- (h) Treatment of Certain Refunds. 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 3.10 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.10), 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 reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Body 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 subsection (h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Body) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Body. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection (h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this subsection (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 subsection 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. (i) Tax Treatment. The parties hereto intend and agree that Advances shall be treated as indebtedness for U.S. federal income tax purposes that is not governed by the rules set out in Treasury Regulations Section 1.1275-4. (j) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 3.10 shall survive the resignation or replacement of Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Term Loan Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of the Obligations. 3.11 Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender (an “Affected Lender”) (a) makes demand upon Borrower for (or if Borrower is otherwise required to pay) amounts pursuant to Section 3.7, 3.9 or 3.10 hereof, (b) is unable to make or maintain Term SOFR Rate Loans as a result of a condition described in Section 2.2(h) hereof, (c) is a Defaulting Lender, or (d) denies any consent requested by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 16.2(b) hereof that has the support of Required Lenders, Borrower may, within ninety (90) days of receipt of such demand, notice (or the occurrence of such other event causing Borrower to be required to pay such compensation or causing Section 2.2(h) hereof to be applicable), or such Lender becoming a Defaulting Lender or denial of a request by Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 16.2(b) hereof, as the case may be, by notice in writing to the Administrative Agent and such Affected Lender (i) request the Affected Lender to cooperate with Borrower in obtaining a replacement Lender satisfactory to Administrative Agent and Borrower (the “Replacement Lender”); (ii) request the non-Affected Lenders to acquire and assume all of the Affected Xxxxxx’s Advances and its Term Loan Commitment Percentages as provided herein, but none of such Lenders shall be under any obligation to do so; or (iii) propose a Replacement Lender subject to approval by Administrative Agent in its good faith business judgment. If any satisfactory Replacement Lender shall be obtained, and/or if any one or more of the non-Affected Lenders shall agree to acquire and assume all of the Affected Lender’s Advances Term Loan Commitment Percentages then such Affected Lender shall assign, in accordance with Section 16.3 hereof, all of its Advances, Term Loan Commitment Percentages and other rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Other Documents to such Replacement Lender or non-Affected Lenders, as the case may be, in exchange for payment of the principal amount so assigned and all interest and fees accrued on the amount so assigned, plus all other Obligations then due and payable to the Affected Lender (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any Prepayment Premium).
- 61- 3.12 Alternate Rate of Interest. 3.12.1. Inability to Determine Rates. Subject to Section 3.12.3, if, on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period for any Term SOFR Rate Loan: (a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that “Term SOFR Rate” cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof; or (b) the Required Lenders determine that for any reason in connection with any request for a Term SOFR Rate Loan or a conversion thereto or a continuation thereof that Term SOFR Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Term SOFR Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making and maintaining such Loan, and the Required Lenders have provided notice of such determination to the Administrative Agent, then, in each case, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender. Upon notice thereof by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower, any obligation of the Lenders to make Term SOFR Rate Loans, and any right of the Borrower to continue Term SOFR Rate Loans or to convert Domestic Rate Loans to Term SOFR Rate Loans, shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Term SOFR Rate Loans or affected Interest Periods) until the Administrative Agent (with respect to clause (b), at the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, (i) the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term SOFR Rate Loans (to the extent of the affected Term SOFR Rate Loans or affected Interest Periods) or, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Domestic Rate Loans in the amount specified therein and (ii) any outstanding affected Term SOFR Rate Loans will be deemed to have been converted into Domestic Rate Loans at the end of the applicable Interest Period. Upon any such conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so converted. Subject to Section 3.12.3, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that “Term SOFR Rate” cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof on any given day, the interest rate on Domestic Rate Loans shall be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to clause (c) of the definition of “Alternate Base Rate” until the Administrative Agent revokes such determination. 3.12.2. Illegality. If any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable lending office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to SOFR, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Term SOFR Rate, or to determine or charge interest based upon SOFR, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Term SOFR Rate, then, upon notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower (through the Administrative Agent) (an “Illegality Notice”), (a) any obligation of the Lenders to make Term SOFR Rate Loans, and any right of the Borrower to continue Term SOFR Rate Loans or to convert Domestic Rate Loans to Term SOFR Rate Loans, shall be suspended, and (b) the interest rate on which Domestic Rate Loans shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to clause (c) of the definition of “Alternate Base Rate”, in each case until each affected Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of an Illegality Notice, the Borrower shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, upon demand from any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all Term SOFR Rate Loans to Domestic Rate Loans (the interest rate on which Domestic Rate Loans shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to clause (c) of the definition of “Alternate Base Rate”), on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if all affected Lenders may lawfully continue to maintain such Term SOFR Rate Loans to such
- 62- day, or immediately, if any Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Term SOFR Rate Loans to such day. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted. 3.12.3. Benchmark Replacement Setting. (a) Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any Other Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (a) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under this Agreement and any Other Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any Other Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (b) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under this Agreement or any Other Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any Other Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. If the Benchmark Replacement is based upon Daily Simple SOFR, all interest payments will be payable on a monthly basis. (b) Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the Other Documents, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any Other Document. (c) Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, and (ii) the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement. The Administrative Agent will notify the Borrower of, (x) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to paragraph (d) below and (y) the commencement 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 this Section, 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 Document except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 3.12.3. (d) Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any of the Other Documents, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate or based on a term rate and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not 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 or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public
- 63- statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor of such Benchmark is not or will not be representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is not or will not be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor. (e) Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, (i) the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term SOFR Rate Loans 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 Borrowing of or conversion to Domestic Rate Loans and (ii) any outstanding affected Term SOFR Rate Loans will be deemed to have been converted to Domestic Rate Loans at the end of the applicable Interest Period. 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 Alternate 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 Alternate Base Rate. IV. COLLATERAL: GENERAL TERMS 4.1 Security Interest in the Collateral.

Any Lien created hereunder or provided for hereby or under any related agreement for any reason ceases to be or is not a valid and perfected Lien having a first priority interest (subject only to Permitted Encumbrances that have priority as a matter of Applicable Law to the extent such Liens only attach to Collateral other than Subsidiary Stock, Receivables or Inventory); 10.9 Cross Default. Any specified “event of default” under any Material Indebtedness (other than the Obligations) of any Loan Party, or any other event or circumstance which would permit the holder of any such Indebtedness of any Loan Party to accelerate such Indebtedness (and/or the obligations of Loan Party thereunder) prior to the scheduled maturity or termination thereof, shall occur (regardless of whether the holder of such Indebtedness shall actually accelerate, terminate or otherwise exercise any rights or remedies with respect to such Indebtedness) 10.10 Breach of Guaranty, Guarantor Security Agreement or Other Document. Termination or breach of any Guaranty, Guarantor Security Agreement, Other Document (after giving effect to any applicable notice or cure periods) or similar agreement executed and delivered to Administrative Agent in connection with the Obligations of any Loan Party, or if any Loan Party or pledgor attempts to terminate, challenges the validity of, or its liability under, any such document or similar agreement; 10.11 Change of Control.

(a) Any representation or warranty contained in Section 16.18 hereof is or becomes false or misleading at any time, or (b) any Loan Party shall fail to comply with its obligations under Section 16.18 hereof. XI. LENDERS’ RIGHTS AND REMEDIES AFTER DEFAULT. 11.1 Rights and Remedies. (a) Upon the occurrence of: (i) an Event of Default pursuant to Section 10.7 hereof, all Obligations (including any prepayment) shall be immediately due and payable and this Agreement and
- 95- the obligation of Lenders to make Advances shall be deemed terminated, (ii) any other Event of Default and at any time thereafter, at the option of Administrative Agent or at the direction of Required Lenders, all Obligations (including any premium, including the Prepayment Premium if applicable) shall be immediately due and payable and Administrative Agent or Required Lenders shall have the right to terminate this Agreement and to terminate the obligation of Lenders to make Advances, and (iii) without limiting Section 8.2 hereof, any Event of Default under Section 10.7(g) hereof arising as a result of the commencement of an involuntary Insolvency Proceeding, the obligation of Lenders to make Advances hereunder shall be suspended until such time as such Insolvency Proceeding shall be dismissed. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Administrative Agent may, or at the direction of Required Lenders shall, exercise any and all rights and remedies provided for herein, under the Other Documents, under the Uniform Commercial Code and at law or equity generally, including the right to foreclose the security interests granted herein and to realize upon any Collateral by any available judicial procedure and/or to take possession of and sell any or all of the Collateral with or without judicial process. Administrative Agent may enter any of any Loan Party’s premises or other premises without legal process and without incurring liability to any Loan Party therefor, and Administrative Agent may thereupon, or at any time thereafter, in its discretion without notice or demand, take the Collateral and remove the same to such place as Administrative Agent may deem advisable and Administrative Agent may require Loan Parties to make the Collateral available to Administrative Agent at a convenient place. With or without having the Collateral at the time or place of sale, Administrative Agent may sell the Collateral, or any part thereof, at public or private sale, at any time or place, in one or more sales, at such price or prices, and upon such terms, either for cash, credit or future delivery, as Administrative Agent may elect. Except as to that part of the Collateral which is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, Administrative Agent shall give Loan Parties reasonable notification of such sale or sales, it being agreed that in all events written notice mailed to Borrower at least ten (10) days prior to such sale or sales is reasonable notification. At any public sale Administrative Agent or any Lender may bid (including credit bid) for and become the purchaser, and Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other purchaser at any such sale thereafter shall hold the Collateral sold absolutely free from any claim or right of whatsoever kind, including any equity of redemption and all such claims, rights and equities are hereby expressly waived and released by each Loan Party. In connection with the exercise of the foregoing remedies, including the sale of Inventory, Administrative Agent is granted a perpetual nonrevocable, royalty free, nonexclusive license to, and Administrative Agent is granted permission to use, all of each Loan Party’s (a) owned or licensed Intellectual Property which is used or useful in connection with Inventory or other Collateral for the purpose of marketing, advertising for sale and selling or otherwise disposing of such Inventory or other Collateral and (b) equipment for the purpose of completing the manufacture of unfinished goods. The cash proceeds realized from the sale of any Collateral shall be applied to the Obligations in the order set forth in Section 11.5 hereof. Non-cash proceeds will only be applied to the Obligations as they are converted into cash. If any deficiency shall arise, Loan Parties shall remain liable to Administrative Agent and Lenders therefor. (b) To the extent that Applicable Law imposes duties on Administrative Agent to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for Administrative Agent: (i) to fail to incur expenses reasonably deemed significant by Administrative Agent to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to complete raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition; (ii) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of; (iii) to fail to exercise collection remedies against Customers or other Persons obligated on Collateral or to remove Liens on or any adverse claims against Collateral; (iv) to exercise collection remedies against Customers and other Persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists; (v) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature; (vi) to
- 96- contact other Persons, whether or not in the same business as any Loan Party, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of such Collateral; (vii) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature; (viii) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capacity of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets; (ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets; (x) to disclaim disposition warranties, such as title, possession or quiet enjoyment, (xi) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure Administrative Agent against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to Administrative Agent a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral; or (xii) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Administrative Agent, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist Administrative Agent in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. Each Loan Party acknowledges that the purpose of this Section 11.1(b) is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by Administrative Agent would not be commercially unreasonable in Administrative Agent’s exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by Administrative Agent shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 11.1(b). Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 11.1(b) shall be construed to grant any rights to any Loan Party or to impose any duties on Administrative Agent that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by Applicable Law in the absence of this Section 11.1(b). (c) Without limiting any other provision hereof: (i) At any bona fide public sale, and to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, at any private sale, Administrative Agent shall be free to purchase all or any part of the Investment Property Collateral. Any such sale may be on cash or credit. Administrative Agent shall be authorized at any such sale (if it deems it advisable to do so) to restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers to persons who will represent and agree that they are purchasing the Investment Property Collateral for their own account in compliance with Regulation D of the Securities Act or any other applicable exemption available under the Securities Act. Administrative Agent will not be obligated to make any sale if it determines not to do so, regardless of the fact that notice of the sale may have been given. Administrative Agent may adjourn any sale and sell at the time and place to which the sale is adjourned. If the Investment Property Collateral is customarily sold on a recognized market or threatens to decline speedily in value, Administrative Agent may sell such Investment Property Collateral at any time without giving prior notice to any Loan Party or other Person. (ii) Each Loan Party recognizes that Administrative Agent may be unable to effect or cause to be effected a public sale of the Investment Property Collateral by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act, so that Administrative Agent may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales to a restricted group of purchasers who will be obligated to agree, among other things, to acquire the Investment Property Collateral for their own account, for investment and without a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Loan Party understands that private sales so made may be at prices and on other terms less favorable to the seller than if the Investment Property Collateral were sold at public sales, and agrees that Administrative Agent has no obligation to delay or agree to delay the sale of any of the Investment Property Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer of the securities which are part of the Investment Property Collateral (even if the issuer would agree), to register such securities for sale under the Securities Act. Each Loan Party agrees that private sales made under the foregoing circumstances shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. (iii) The net proceeds arising from the disposition of the Investment Property Collateral after deducting expenses incurred by Administrative Agent will be applied to the Obligations pursuant to Section 11.5 hereof. If any excess remains after the discharge in full in cash of all of the
- 97- Obligations, the same will be paid to the applicable Loan Party or to any other Person that may be legally entitled thereto. (iv) At any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (A) Administrative Agent may transfer any or all of the Investment Property Collateral into its name or that of its nominee and may exercise all voting rights with respect to the Investment Property Collateral (and, upon giving notice of such transfer to Borrower, all such rights of the Loan Parties shall cease; provided the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, permit the Loan Parties to continue to exercise such rights), but no such transfer shall constitute a taking of such Investment Property Collateral in satisfaction of any or all of the Obligations, and (B) Administrative Agent shall be entitled to receive, for application to the Obligations, all cash or stock dividends and distributions, interest and premiums declared or paid on the Investment Property Collateral (and all rights of the Loan Parties with respect thereto shall cease). (d) (i) Without limiting any other provision hereof, it is understood and agreed that if the Term Loans are accelerated or otherwise become due, in each case, in respect of any Event of Default including upon the occurrence of a bankruptcy or insolvency related event (including acceleration of claims by operation of law) or upon the occurrence of the board of directors (or similar governing body or any Person having control of any Loan Party (or any committee thereof) or of any directors (or similar governing body or any Person having Control) of any Loan Party (or any committee thereof) adopting any resolution or otherwise authorizing any action to approve any bankruptcy or insolvency related event) (each of the foregoing, a “Specified Event”), the Prepayment Premium that would have applied if, at the time the Term Loans are accelerated or otherwise become due, the Borrower had paid, refinanced, substituted or replaced any or all of the Term Loans will also be automatically and immediately due and payable and Prepayment Premium shall constitute part of the Obligations, in view of the impracticability and extreme difficulty of ascertaining actual damages and by mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable calculation of the Term Loan Lenders’ damages as a result thereof. Any Prepayment Premium payable hereunder shall be presumed to be the liquidated damages sustained by the Term Loan Lenders as the result of such Specified Event and the Borrower and the other Loan Parties agree that the Prepayment Premium is reasonable under the circumstances currently existing. The Prepayment Premium that would have applied if, at the time the Term Loans are satisfied or released by foreclosure, (whether by power of judicial proceeding), deed in lieu of foreclosure or by any other similar means, the Borrower had paid, refinanced, substituted or replaced any or all of the Term Loans shall also be payable in the event the Obligations (and/or this Agreement) are satisfied or released by foreclosure (whether by power of judicial proceeding), deed in lieu of foreclosure or by any other similar means. (ii) THE BORROWER AND EACH OTHER LOAN PARTY EXPRESSLY WAIVES (TO THE FULLEST EXTENT IT MAY LAWFULLY DO SO) THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE PREPAYMENT PREMIUM IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH SPECIFIED EVENT. (iii) The Borrower and each other Loan Party expressly agrees (to the fullest extent that it may lawfully do so) that: (A) the Prepayment Premium is reasonable and is the product of an arm’s length transaction between sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel; (B) the Prepayment Premium shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made; (C) there has been a course of conduct between the (I) Initial Term Loan Lenders and the Borrower and the other Loan Parties and (II) the Delayed Draw Term Loan Lenders and the Borrower and the other Loan Parties, in each case giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the Prepayment Premium; and (D) the Borrower and each other Loan Party shall each be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this paragraph.
- 98- (iv) The Borrower and each other Loan Party expressly acknowledges that its agreement to pay the Prepayment Premium to the Initial Term Loan Lenders and Delayed Draw Term Loan Lenders as herein described is a material inducement to the Initial Term Loan Lenders and Delayed Draw Term Loan Lenders to provide the Initial Term Loans and Delayed Draw Term Loans, respectively. At any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (A) Administrative Agent may transfer any or all of the Investment Property Collateral into its name or that of its nominee and may exercise all voting rights with respect to the Investment Property Collateral (and all such rights of the Loan Parties shall cease; provided the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, permit the Loan Parties to continue to exercise such rights), but no such transfer shall constitute a taking of such Investment Property Collateral in satisfaction of any or all of the Obligations, and (B) Administrative Agent shall be entitled to receive, for application to the Obligations, all cash or stock dividends and distributions, interest and premiums declared or paid on the Investment Property Collateral (and all rights of the Loan Parties with respect thereto shall cease). 11.2 Administrative Agent’s Discretion. Subject to Section 16.2 hereof and any separate agreement among the Lenders, Administrative Agent shall have the right in its sole discretion to determine which rights, Liens, security interests or remedies Administrative Agent may at any time pursue, relinquish, subordinate, or modify, which procedures, timing and methodologies to employ, and what any other action to take with respect to any or all of the Collateral and in what order, thereto and such determination will not in any way modify or affect any of Administrative Agent’s or Xxxxxxx’ rights hereunder as against Loan Parties or each other. 11.3 Setoff. Subject to Section 14.13, in addition to any other rights which Administrative Agent or any Lender may have under Applicable Law, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default hereunder, Administrative Agent and such Lender shall have a right, immediately and without notice of any kind, to apply any Loan Party’s property held by Administrative Agent and such Lender or any of their Affiliates to reduce the Obligations and to exercise any and all rights of setoff which may be available to Administrative Agent and such Lender with respect to any deposits held by Administrative Agent or such Lender. 11.4 Rights and Remedies not Exclusive. The enumeration of the foregoing rights and remedies is not intended to be exhaustive and the exercise of any rights or remedy shall not preclude the exercise of any other right or remedies provided for herein or otherwise provided by law, all of which shall be cumulative and not alternative. 11.5 Allocation of Payments After Event of Default. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary but subject to any other written agreements among the Administrative Agent and/or Lenders, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all amounts collected or received by Administrative Agent on account of the Obligations, or in respect of the Collateral may, at Administrative Agent’s discretion or, shall at the direction of Required Lenders, be paid over or delivered as follows: FIRST, ratably to the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) of Administrative Agent in connection with enforcing its rights and the rights of Lenders under this Agreement and the Other Documents or otherwise under or pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; SECOND, ratably to payment of any fees owed to Administrative Agent;
- 99- THIRD, ratably to the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) of each of the Lenders to the extent owing to such Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; FOURTH, ratably to the payment of all Obligations consisting of accrued fees and interest; FIFTH, ratably to the payment of the outstanding principal amount of the Obligations (including any premium amounts, including the Prepayment Premium); SIXTH, ratably to all other Obligations which shall have become due and payable (hereunder, under the Other Documents or otherwise) and not repaid pursuant to clauses “FIRST” through “FIFTH” above; and SEVENTH, to the payment of the surplus, if any, to whoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus. In carrying out the foregoing, (i) amounts received shall be applied in the numerical order provided until exhausted prior to application to the next succeeding category; (ii) each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, as applicable, shall receive (so long as it is not a Defaulting Lender) an amount equal to its pro rata share (based on the proportion that the then outstanding Advances held by such Lender bears to the aggregate then outstanding Advances) of amounts available to be applied pursuant to clauses “FOURTH”, “FIFTH” and “SIXTH” above; and (iii) notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 11.5, no Swap Obligations of any Non-Qualifying Party shall be paid with amounts received from such Non-Qualifying Party under its Guaranty (including sums received as a result of the exercise of remedies with respect to such Guaranty) or from the proceeds of such Non-Qualifying Party’s Collateral if such Swap Obligations would constitute Excluded Hedge Liabilities, provided, however, that to the extent possible appropriate adjustments shall be made with respect to payments and/or the proceeds of Collateral from Borrower and/or Guarantors that are Eligible Contract Participants with respect to such Swap Obligations to preserve the allocation to Obligations otherwise set forth above in this Section 11.5. XII. XXXXXXX AND JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS. 12.1 Waiver of Notice. Each Loan Party hereby waives notice of non-payment of any of the Receivables, demand, presentment, protest and notice thereof with respect to any and all instruments, notice of acceptance hereof, notice of loans or advances made, credit extended, Collateral received or delivered, or any other action taken in reliance hereon, and all other demands and notices of any description, except such as are expressly provided for herein. 12.2 Delay. No delay or omission on Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s part in exercising any right, remedy or option shall operate as a waiver of such or any other right, remedy or option or of any Default or Event of Default. 12.3 Jury Waiver. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, COUNTERCLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION (A) ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER DOCUMENT OR ANY OTHER INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT EXECUTED OR DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH, OR (B) IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO OR ANY OF THEM WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER DOCUMENT OR ANY OTHER INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT EXECUTED OR DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH, OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO OR THERETO IN EACH CASE
- 100- WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE AND EACH PARTY HEREBY CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, COUNTERCLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY, AND THAT ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENTS OF THE PARTIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. XIII. EFFECTIVE DATE AND TERMINATION. 13.1 Term. This Agreement, which shall inure to the benefit of and shall be binding upon the respective successors and permitted assigns of each Loan Party, Administrative Agent and each Lender, shall become effective on the Closing Date (subject to Section 8.1(a) hereof) and shall continue in full force and effect until October 20, 2028 (the “Term”) unless sooner terminated as herein provided. Loan Parties may terminate this Agreement at any time upon ten (10) days prior written notice to Administrative Agent upon Payment in Full in cash of the Obligations. 13.2 Termination. The termination of the Agreement shall not affect Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s rights, or any of the Obligations having their inception or otherwise outstanding prior to or as of the effective date of such termination or any Obligations which pursuant to the terms hereof continue to accrue after such date, and the provisions hereof shall continue to be fully operative until (a) all transactions entered into, rights or interests created and Obligations have been fully and indefeasibly paid, disposed of, concluded or liquidated in cash, and (b) all Loan Parties have released Secured Parties from and against any and all claims of any nature whatsoever that any Loan Party may have against Secured Parties. The security interests, Xxxxx and rights granted to Agent and Lenders hereunder and the financing statements filed hereunder shall continue in full force and effect, notwithstanding the termination of this Agreement or the fact that Xxxxxxxx’s Account may from time to time be temporarily in a zero or credit position, until all of the Obligations of each Loan Party have been Paid in Full after the termination of this Agreement or each Loan Party has furnished Administrative Agent and Lenders with an indemnification satisfactory to Administrative Agent with respect thereto. Accordingly, each Loan Party waives any rights which it may have under the Uniform Commercial Code to demand the filing of termination statements with respect to the Collateral, and Administrative Agent shall not be required to send such termination statements to each Loan Party, or to file them with any filing office, unless and until this Agreement shall have been terminated in accordance with its terms and all Obligations have been Paid in Full. All representations, warranties, covenants, waivers and agreements contained herein shall survive termination hereof until all Obligations are Paid in Full. XIV. REGARDING ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND ARRANGER. 14.1 Appointment. Each Lender hereby designates Apollo Administrative Agency LLC to act as Administrative Agent for such Lender under this Agreement and the Other Documents. Each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the Other Documents and to exercise such powers and to perform such duties hereunder and thereunder as are specifically delegated to or required of the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and thereof and such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto and Administrative Agent shall hold all Collateral, payments of principal and interest, fees (except the fees set forth in Section 2.8(b) hereof and to the extent set forth in the Fee Letter), charges and collections received pursuant to this Agreement, for the ratable benefit of Lenders. Administrative Agent may perform any of its duties hereunder by or through its agents or employees. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement (including collection of the Notes) Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully
- 101- protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of Required Lenders, and such instructions shall be binding; provided, however, that Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action which, in its discretion, exposes the Administrative Agent to liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or the Other Documents or Applicable Law unless Administrative Agent is furnished with an indemnification reasonably satisfactory to it with respect thereto. 14.2 Nature of Duties. Administrative Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the Other Documents. Neither Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be (i) liable for any action taken or omitted by them as such hereunder or in connection herewith, unless caused by their gross (not mere) negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment), or (ii) responsible in any manner for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any Loan Party or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement, or in any of the Other Documents or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any of the Other Documents or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, due execution, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement, or any of the Other Documents or for any failure of any Loan Party to perform its obligations hereunder. Administrative Agent shall not be under any obligation to any Lender 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 of the Other Documents, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Loan Party. The duties of Administrative as respects the Advances to Loan Parties shall be mechanical and administrative in nature; neither the Administrative Agent nor the Arranger shall have by reason of this Agreement a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender, any Loan Party or any other Person; and nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon the Administrative Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement or the transactions described herein except as expressly set forth herein. 14.3 Lack of Reliance on Administrative Agent and Arranger. (a) Independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent, the Arranger or any other Lender, each Lender has made and shall continue to make (i) its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of each Loan Party in connection with the making and the continuance of the Advances hereunder and the taking or not taking of any action in connection herewith, and (ii) its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of each Loan Party. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Arranger shall have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before making of the Advances or at any time or times thereafter except as shall be provided by any Loan Party pursuant to the terms hereof. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Arranger shall be responsible to any Lender for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties herein or in any agreement, document, certificate or a statement delivered in connection with or for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any Other Document, or of the financial condition of any Loan Party, or be required to make any inquiry concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Agreement, the Notes, the Other Documents or the financial condition or prospects of any Loan Party, or the existence of any Event of Default or any Default. (b) The Administrative Agent, the Arranger and each of their respective Affiliates 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 Term Loan Commitments and this Agreement, (ii) may recognize a gain if it extended the Loans or the Term Loan
- 102- Commitments for an amount less than the amount being paid for an interest in the Loans or the Term Loan Commitments by such Lender or (iii) may receive fees or other payments in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, the Other Documents or otherwise, including structuring fees, commitment fees, arrangement fees, facility fees, upfront fees, underwriting fees, ticking fees, agency fees, administrative agent or collateral agent fees, utilization fees, minimum usage fees, letter of 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. 14.4 Resignation/Removal of Administrative Agent; Successor Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent may resign on thirty (30) days written notice to each Xxxxxx and Xxxxxxxx. If Administrative Agent is not a Lender, Administrative Agent may be removed in a writing delivered to Borrower and Administrative Agent and signed by Required Lenders. Upon any such resignation or removal, Required Lenders will promptly designate a successor Administrative Agent reasonably satisfactory to Loan Parties; provided, that no notice to or approval of Loan Parties shall be required (i) in any case where the successor Administrative Agent is one of the Lenders or (ii) after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default. Any such successor Administrative Agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of Administrative Agent and shall in particular succeed to all of Administrative Agent’s right, title and interest in and to all of the Liens in the Collateral securing the Obligations created hereunder or any Other Document, and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor agent effective upon its appointment, and the former Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent, shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent. However, notwithstanding the foregoing, if at the time of the effectiveness of the new applicable Administrative Agent’s appointment, any further actions need to be taken in order to provide for the legally binding and valid transfer of any Liens in the Collateral from former applicable Administrative Agent to new applicable Administrative Agent and/or for the perfection of any Liens in the Collateral as held by new applicable Administrative Agent or it is otherwise not then possible for new applicable Administrative Agent to become the holder of a fully valid, enforceable and perfected Lien as to any of the Collateral, former applicable Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such Liens solely as agent for perfection of such Liens on behalf of new applicable Administrative Agent until such time as new applicable Administrative Agent can obtain a fully valid, enforceable and perfected Lien on all Collateral, provided, that Administrative Agent shall not be required to or have any liability or responsibility to take any further actions after such date for perfection to continue of any such Liens (other than to forego from taking any affirmative action to release any such Liens). After Administrative Agent’s resignation (or removal) as Administrative Agent the provisions of this Article XIV, and any indemnification rights under this Agreement, including without limitation, rights arising under Section 16.5 hereof, 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 (and in the event resigning (or removed) Administrative Agent continues to hold any Liens pursuant to the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence, the provisions of this Article XIV and any indemnification rights under this Agreement, including without limitation, rights arising under Section 16.5 hereof, shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it in connection with such Liens). 14.5 Certain Rights of Administrative Agent. If Administrative Agent shall request instructions from Lenders with respect to any act or action (including failure to act) in connection with this Agreement or any Other Document, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such action unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received instructions from Required Lenders; and Administrative Agent shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining. Without limiting the foregoing, Lenders shall not have any right of action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent as a result of its acting or refraining from acting hereunder in accordance with the instructions of Required Lenders.
- 103- 14.6 Reliance. Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, statement, certificate, email, facsimile, telex, teletype or telecopier message, cablegram, order or other document or telephone message believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper person or entity, and, with respect to all legal matters pertaining to this Agreement and the Other Documents and its duties hereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by it. Administrative Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be liable for the default or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by the Administrative Agent with reasonable care. 14.7 Notice of Default. Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder or under the Other Documents, unless Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or Borrower referring to this Agreement or the Other Documents, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”.

For the avoidance of doubt, other than participations requiring Xxxxxxxx’s prior written consent for increased amounts being required to be paid to a Participant as further described in clause (i) above, any Lender may sell participations to any Participant hereunder without the consent of Xxxxxxxx, any Loan Party or Administrative Agent. Each Loan Party hereby grants to any Participant a continuing security interest in any deposits, moneys or other property actually or constructively held by such Participant as security for the Participant’s interest in the Advances. (c) Any Lender, with the consent of Administrative Agent (other than in respect of Permitted Assignees), may sell, assign or transfer all or any part of its rights and obligations under or relating to Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments and/or Term Loans under this Agreement and the Other Documents to one or more additional Persons (other than any natural Person, any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates) and one or more of such additional Persons may commit to make Advances hereunder (each a “Purchasing Lender”), in minimum amounts of not less than $1,000,000, pursuant to a Commitment Transfer Supplement, executed by a Purchasing Lender, the transferor Lender, and Administrative Agent and delivered to Administrative Agent for recording, provided, however, that each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Xxxxxx’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to each of the Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments and/or Term Loans under this Agreement in which such Lender has an interest; provided, further, that assignments to Permitted Assignees shall not be subject to the foregoing minimum assignment limitations. Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the transfer effective date determined pursuant to such Commitment Transfer Supplement, (i) Purchasing Lender thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Commitment Transfer Supplement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender thereunder with a Term Loan Commitment Percentage as set forth therein, and (ii) the transferor Lender thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such Commitment Transfer Supplement, be released from its obligations under this Agreement, the Commitment Transfer Supplement creating a novation for that purpose. Such Commitment Transfer Supplement shall be deemed to amend this Agreement to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of such Purchasing Lender and the resulting adjustment of the Term Loan Commitment Percentages arising from the purchase by such Purchasing Lender of all or a portion of the rights and obligations of such transferor Lender under this Agreement and the Other Documents. Each Loan Party hereby consents to the addition of such Purchasing Lender and the resulting adjustment of the Term Loan Commitment Percentages arising from the purchase by such
- 113- Purchasing Lender of all or a portion of the rights and obligations of such transferor Lender under this Agreement and the Other Documents. Loan Parties shall execute and deliver such further documents and do such further acts and things in order to effectuate the foregoing; provided, however, that the consent of Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) shall be required unless (x) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (y) such assignment, is to a Permitted Assignee; provided, that Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment (except in the case of a Disqualified Lender) unless it shall object thereto by written notice to Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received prior notice thereof. (d) Any Lender, with the consent of Administrative Agent which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, may directly or indirectly sell, assign, pledge or transfer all or any portion of its rights and obligations under or relating to Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments and/or Term Loans under this Agreement and the Other Documents to an entity, whether a corporation, partnership, trust, limited liability company or other entity (in each case, other than any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates) that (i) is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or otherwise investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and (ii) is administered, serviced or managed by the selling, assigning, pledging or transferring Lender or an Affiliate of such Lender (a “Purchasing CLO” and together with each Participant and Purchasing Lender, each a “Transferee” and collectively the “Transferees”), pursuant to a Commitment Transfer Supplement modified as appropriate to reflect the interest being sold, assigned, pledged or transferred (“Modified Commitment Transfer Supplement”), executed by any intermediate purchaser, the Purchasing CLO, the transferor Lender, and Administrative Agent as appropriate and delivered to Administrative Agent for recording. Upon such execution and delivery, from and after the transfer effective date determined pursuant to such Modified Commitment Transfer Supplement, (i) Purchasing CLO thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Modified Commitment Transfer Supplement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender thereunder and (ii) the transferor Lender thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such Modified Commitment Transfer Supplement, be released from its obligations under this Agreement, the Modified Commitment Transfer Supplement creating a novation for that purpose. Such Modified Commitment Transfer Supplement shall be deemed to amend this Agreement to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of such Purchasing CLO. Each Loan Party hereby consents to the addition of such Purchasing CLO. Loan Parties shall execute and deliver such further documents and do such further acts and things in order to effectuate the foregoing. (e) Administrative Agent, acting as a non-fiduciary agent of Loan Parties, shall maintain at its address a copy of each Commitment Transfer Supplement and Modified Commitment Transfer Supplement delivered to it and a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of each Lender and the outstanding principal, accrued and unpaid interest and other fees due hereunder. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and each Loan Party, Administrative Agent and Xxxxxxx shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of the Advance recorded therein for the purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice, and shall be maintained in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) or Proposed Section 1.163-5(b) (or, in each case, any amended or successor sections) of the United States Treasury Regulations. Administrative Agent shall receive a fee in the amount of $3,500 payable by the applicable Purchasing Lender and/or Purchasing CLO upon the effective date of each transfer or assignment (other than to an intermediate purchaser) to such Purchasing Lender and/or Purchasing CLO; provided that such $3,500 recordation fee shall not apply to transfers or assignments by a Lender to an Affiliate of such Lender. (f) Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non- fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register 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 Advances or
- 114- other obligations under this Agreement or the Other Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under this Agreement or any Other Document) to any Person 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 Section 5f.103-1(c) or Proposed Section 1.163-5(b) (or, in each case, any amended or successor sections) of the United States Treasury Regulations. 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. The parties agree that the Participant Register is intended to establish that the Loans are in “registered form” under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. (g) Each Loan Party authorizes each Lender to disclose to any Transferee and any prospective Transferee any and all financial information in such Xxxxxx’s possession concerning such Loan Party which has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of such Loan Party pursuant to this Agreement or in connection with such Xxxxxx’s credit evaluation of such Loan Party. (h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any Lender may at any time and from time to 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. 16.4 Application of Payments. Administrative Agent shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply or reverse and re-apply any payment and any and all proceeds of Collateral to the Obligations to the extent such application and/or reversal, as applicable, and re-application is in accordance with the payment priorities and other applicable provisions set forth in this Agreement and any applicable agreement among the Lenders with respect thereto. To the extent that any Loan Party makes a payment or Administrative Agent or any Lender receives any payment or proceeds of the Collateral for any Loan Party’s benefit, which are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, debtor in possession, receiver, custodian or any other party under any bankruptcy law, common law or equitable cause, then, to such extent, the Obligations or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continue as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by Administrative Agent or such Lender. 16.5 Indemnity. Each Loan Party shall defend, protect, indemnify, pay and save harmless Administrative Agent, the Arranger, each Lender and each of their respective officers, directors, Affiliates, attorneys, employees and agents (each an “Indemnified Party”) for and from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, fines, actions, judgments, suits, costs, charges, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including fees and disbursements of outside counsel but limited in the case of any one claim, demand, liability, obligation, loss, damages penalty, fine, action, judgment, suit, cost, charge, expense and disbursement to (a) in the case of the Administrative Agent, and the Term Loan Lenders, one firm of primary counsel, (b) one firm of local counsel in each material jurisdiction, and (c) in the case of an actual or reasonably perceived conflict of interest, one outside counsel to all similarly affected Indemnified Parties taken as a whole in each applicable jurisdiction, in each case, excluding allocated costs of in-house counsel) (collectively, “Claims”) which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against any Indemnified Party in arising out of or in any way relating to or as a consequence, direct or indirect, of: (i) this Agreement, the Other Documents, the Advances and other Obligations and/or

Without limiting the generality of any of the foregoing, each Loan Party shall defend, protect, indemnify, pay and save harmless each Indemnified Party from any Claims which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against any Indemnified Party under any Environmental Laws with respect to or in connection with the Real Property, any Hazardous Discharge, the presence of any Hazardous Materials affecting the Real Property (whether or not the same originates or emerges from the Real Property or any contiguous real estate), including any Claims consisting of or relating to the imposition or assertion of any Lien on any of the Real Property under any Environmental Laws and any loss of value of the Real Property as a result of the foregoing. Loan Parties’ obligations under this Section 16.5 shall arise upon the discovery of the presence of any Hazardous Materials at the Real Property, whether or not any federal, state, or local environmental agency has taken or threatened any action in connection with the presence of any Hazardous Materials, in each such case except to the extent that any of the foregoing arises out of the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Indemnified Party (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this indemnity shall extend to any liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including fees and disbursements of outside counsel but limited in the case of any one claim, demand, liability, obligation, loss, damages penalty, fine, action, judgment, suit, cost, charge, expense and disbursement to (a) in the case of the Administrative Agent and the Term Loan Lenders, one firm of primary counsel, (b) one firm of local counsel in each material jurisdiction, and (c) in the case of an actual or reasonably perceived conflict of interest, one outside counsel to all similarly affected Indemnified Parties taken as a whole in each applicable jurisdiction, in each case, excluding allocated costs of in-house counsel) asserted against or incurred by any of the Indemnified Parties by any Person under any Environmental Laws or similar laws by reason of any Loan Party’s or any other Person’s failure to comply with laws applicable to solid or hazardous waste materials, including Hazardous Materials and Hazardous Waste, or other Toxic Substances.

(a) To the extent that this Agreement or any Other Document provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for any agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that this Agreement, the Other Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States): (b) In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the
- 122- United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under this Agreement and the Other Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and this Agreement and the Other Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support. (c) As used in this Section 16.20, the following terms have the following meanings: (i) “BHC Act Affiliate” of a party means an “affiliate” (as such term is defined under, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 1841(k)) of such party. (ii) “Covered Entity” means any of the following: (A) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b); (B) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or (C) a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b). (d) “Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable. (e) “QFC” has the meaning assigned to the term “qualified financial contract” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 5390(c)(8)(D). 16.21 The Platform. (a) THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” THE AGENT PARTIES DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS.

In no event shall any Agent Party have any liability to the Borrower, any Lender or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the Borrower’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of Borrower Materials through the Internet, except to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent Party; provided, however, that in no event shall any Agent Party have any liability to the Borrower, any Lender or any other Person for indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages.
- 123- (b) Each Public Lender agrees to cause at least one individual at or on behalf of such Public Lender to at all times have selected the “Private-Side Information” or similar designation on the content declaration screen of the Platform in order to enable such Public Lender or its delegate, in accordance with such Public Lender’s compliance procedures and applicable Law, including United States Federal and state securities Laws, to make reference to Borrower Materials that are not made available through the “Public Side Information” portion of the Platform and that may contain material non-public information with respect to the Borrowers or their respective securities for purposes of United States Federal or state securities laws. XVII. GUARANTY. 17.1 Guaranty. Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally guarantees, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, jointly and severally with each other Guarantor when and as due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by notice of prepayment or otherwise, the due and punctual performance of all Obligations; provided, that with respect to Obligations under or in respect of any Swap Obligation, the foregoing guarantee shall only be effective to the extent that such Guarantor is a Qualified ECP Loan Party at the time such Swap Obligation is entered into and such Obligations and such guarantee thereof are not Excluded Hedge Liabilities. Each payment made by any Guarantor pursuant to this Guaranty shall be made in lawful money of the United States in immediately available funds. 17.2 Waivers. Each Guarantor hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably waives (i) promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance, notice of presentment of payment and any other notice hereunder, (ii) demand of payment, protest, notice of dishonor or nonpayment, notice of the present and future amount of the Obligations and any other notice with respect to the Obligations, (iii) any requirement that Administrative Agent or any Lender protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or Lien on any property subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any action against any other Loan Party, or any Person or any Collateral, (iv) any other action, event or precondition to the enforcement hereof or the performance by each such Guarantor of the Obligations, and (v) any defense arising by any lack of capacity or authority or any other defense of any Loan Party or any notice, demand or defense by reason of cessation from any cause of Obligations other than payment and performance in full of the Obligations by the Loan Parties and any defense that any other guarantee or security was or was to be obtained by Administrative Agent. 17.3 No Defense. No invalidity, irregularity, voidableness, voidness or unenforceability of this Agreement or any Other Document or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto, or of all or any part of the Obligations or of any collateral security therefor shall affect, impair or be a defense hereunder. 17.4 Guaranty of Payment. The Guaranty hereunder is one of payment and performance, not collection, and the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are independent of the Obligations of the other Loan Parties, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against any Guarantor to enforce the terms and conditions of this Article XVII, irrespective of whether any action is brought against any other Loan Party or other Persons or whether any other Loan Party or other Persons are joined in any such action or actions. Each Guarantor waives any right to require that any resort be had by Administrative Agent or any Lender to any security held for payment of the Obligations or to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of Administrative Agent or any Lender in favor of any Loan Party or any other Person. No election to proceed in one form of action or proceedings, or against any Person, or on any Obligations, shall constitute a waiver of Administrative Agent’s right to proceed in any other form of action or proceeding or against any other Person unless Administrative Agent has expressed any such right in writing. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no action or proceeding by Administrative Agent against any Loan Party under any document evidencing or securing indebtedness of any Loan Party to Administrative Agent shall diminish the liability of any Guarantor hereunder, except to the extent
- 124- Administrative Agent receives actual payment on account of Obligations by such action or proceeding, notwithstanding the effect of any such election, action or proceeding upon the right of subrogation of any Guarantor in respect of any Loan Party. 17.5 Liabilities Absolute. The liability of each Guarantor hereunder shall be absolute, unlimited and unconditional and shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment, discharge or termination for any reason, including, without limitation, any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any claim, defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any other Obligation or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Guarantor shall not be discharged or impaired, released, limited or otherwise affected by: (a) any change in the manner, place or terms of payment or performance, and/or any change or extension of the time of payment or performance of, release, renewal or alteration of, or any new agreements relating to any Obligation, any security therefor, or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof, or any rescission of, or amendment, waiver or other modification of, or any consent to departure from, this Agreement or any Other Document, including any increase in the Obligations resulting from the extension of additional credit to any Loan Party or otherwise; (b) any sale, exchange, release, surrender, loss, abandonment, realization upon any property by whomsoever at any time pledged or mortgaged to secure, or howsoever securing, all or any of the Obligations, and/or any offset there against, or failure to perfect, or continue the perfection of, any Lien in any such property, or delay in the perfection of any such Lien, or any amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any other guaranty for all or any of the Obligations; (c) the failure of Administrative Agent or any Lender to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against any Loan Party or any other Loan Party or any other Person under the provisions of this Agreement or any Other Document or any other document or instrument executed and delivered in connection herewith or therewith; (d) any settlement or compromise of any Obligation, any security therefor or any liability (including any of those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and any subordination of the payment of all or any part thereof to the payment of any obligation (whether due or not) of any Loan Party to creditors of any Loan Party other than any other Loan Party; (e) any manner of application of Collateral, or proceeds thereof, to all or any of the Obligations, or any manner of sale or other disposition of any Collateral for all or any of the Obligations or any other assets of any Loan Party; and (f) any other agreements or circumstance of any nature whatsoever that may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor, or that might otherwise at law or in equity constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Guaranty hereunder and/or the obligations of any Guarantor, or a defense to, or discharge of, any Loan Party or any other Person or party hereto or the Obligations or otherwise with respect to the Advances or other financial accommodations to Loan Parties pursuant to this Agreement and/or the Other Documents. 17.6 Waiver of Notice. Administrative Agent shall have the right to do any of the above without notice to or the consent of any Guarantor and each Guarantor expressly waives any right to notice of, consent to, knowledge of and participation in any agreements relating to any of the above or any other present or future event relating to Obligations whether under this Agreement or otherwise or any right to
- 125- challenge or question any of the above and waives any defenses of such Guarantor which might arise as a result of such actions. 17.7 Administrative Agent’s Discretion. Administrative Agent may at any time and from time to time (whether prior to or after the revocation or termination of this Agreement) without the consent of, or notice to, any Guarantor, and without incurring responsibility to any Guarantor or impairing or releasing the Obligations, apply any sums by whomsoever paid or howsoever realized to any Obligations regardless of what Obligations remain unpaid. 17.8 Reinstatement. (a) The Guaranty provisions herein contained shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if claim is ever made upon Administrative Agent or any Lender for repayment or recovery of any amount or amounts received by such Person in payment or on account of any of the Obligations and such Person repays all or part of said amount for any reason whatsoever, including, without limitation, by reason of any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body having jurisdiction over such Person or the respective property of each, or any settlement or compromise of any claim effected by such Person with any such claimant (including any Loan Party); and in such event each Guarantor hereby agrees that any such judgment, decree, order, settlement or compromise or other circumstances shall be binding upon such Guarantor, notwithstanding any revocation hereof or the cancellation of any note or other instrument evidencing any Obligation, and each Guarantor shall be and remain liable to Administrative Agent and/or Lenders for the amount so repaid or recovered to the same extent as if such amount had never originally been received by such Person(s). This Section 17.8 shall survive the termination of this Agreement. (b) No Agent shall be required to marshal any assets in favor of any Guarantor, or against or in payment of Obligations. (c) No Guarantor shall be entitled to claim against any present or future security held by Administrative Agent or any Lender from any Person for Obligations in priority to or equally with any claim of Administrative Agent and Lenders, or assert any claim for any liability of any Loan Party to any Guarantor in priority to or equally with claims of Administrative Agent and the Lenders for Obligations, and no Guarantor shall be entitled to compete with Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect to, or to advance any equal or prior claim to any security held by Administrative Agent or any Lender for Obligations. (d) If any Loan Party makes any payment to Administrative Agent, which payment is wholly or partly subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to any Person under any federal or provincial statute or at common law or under equitable principles, then to the extent of such payment, the Obligation intended to be paid shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if the payment had not been made, and the resulting revived Obligation shall continue to be guaranteed, uninterrupted, by each Guarantor hereunder. (e) All present and future monies payable by any Loan Party to any Guarantor, whether arising out of a right of subrogation, contribution, indemnity or otherwise, are assigned to Administrative Agent for its benefit and for the ratable benefit of Lenders as security for such Guarantor’s liability to Administrative Agent and Lenders hereunder and are postponed and subordinated to Administrative Agent’s and Xxxxxxx’ prior right to Payment in Full of Obligations. Except to the extent prohibited otherwise by this Agreement, all monies received by any Guarantor from any Loan Party shall be held by such Guarantor as agent and trustee for Administrative Agent. This assignment, postponement
- 126- and subordination shall only terminate when the Obligations are Paid in Full and this Agreement is irrevocably terminated. (f) Each Loan Party acknowledges this assignment, postponement and subordination and, except as otherwise set forth herein, agrees to make no payments to any Guarantor without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent. Each Loan Party agrees to give full effect to the provisions hereof. (g) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the right of recovery against each Guarantor under the Guaranty shall be limited to the maximum amount that can be guaranteed by such Guarantor without rendering such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder void or voidable under applicable law, including, without limitation, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar foreign, federal or state law. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the foregoing limitation shall be for the benefit solely of the Secured Parties and not for the benefit of such Guarantor or the holders of any equity interest in such Guarantor.
