§2.THE CREDIT FACILITY.

§2.1Loans.

(a)Term Loans.

(i)Prior to the date hereof, each Term Lender holding a 2021 Term Loan Commitment made a 2021 Term Loan to Borrower in the aggregate principal amount equal to such Term Lender’s 2021 Term Loan Commitment. The 2021 Term Loans shall mature on the 2021 Term Loan Maturity Date. Borrower may not reborrow any portion of any 2021 Term Loan once repaid. 2021 Term Loans may be Base Rate Loans, Daily Simple SOFR Loans or Term SOFR Loans, as further provided herein. As of the Closing Date, the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the 2021 Term Loans is $200,000,000.00.

(ii)Prior to the date hereof, each Term Lender holding a 2017 Term Loan Commitment (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) made a 2017 Term Loan (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) to Borrower in the aggregate principal amount equal to such Term Lender’s 2017 Term Loan Commitment (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement). Prior to the date hereof, each Term Lender holding a 2018 Term Loan Commitment (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) made a 2018 Term Loan (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) to Borrower in the aggregate principal amount equal to such Term Lender’s 2018 Term Loan Commitment (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement). As of the Closing Date, the aggregate Outstanding principal balance of the 2017 Term Loan (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) is $100,000,000.00 and the aggregate Outstanding principal balance of the 2018 Term Loan (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) is $200,000,000.00 (collectively, the “Existing Term Loans”). Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, on the Closing Date, each 2022 Term Lender severally agrees to make a term loan to Borrower in the aggregate principal amount equal to such 2022 Term Lender’s 2022 Term Loan Commitment such that as of the Closing Date, the aggregate Outstanding principal balance of the Existing Term Loans and such new term loans (all of the foregoing, collectively, the “2022 Term Loans”) shall equal $400,000,000. The 2022 Term Loan Commitments of the 2022 Term Lenders shall expire concurrently with the making of the 2022 Term

Loan on the Closing Date. For the avoidance of doubt, from and after the Closing Date, the 2017 Term Loan and the 2018 Term Loan shall be subsumed into, and form a part of, the 2022 Term Loan. The 2022 Term Loans shall mature on the 2022 Term Loan Maturity Date. Borrower may not reborrow any portion of any 2022 Term Loan once repaid. 2022 Term Loans may be Base Rate Loans, Daily Simple SOFR Loans or Term SOFR Loans, as further provided herein. As of the Closing Date, the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the 2022 Term Loans is $400,000,000.00.

(b)The Revolving Credit Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, each of the Revolving Credit Lenders severally agrees to lend to Borrower, and Borrower may borrow (and repay and reborrow) from time to time between the Closing Date and the Revolving Credit Maturity Date upon notice by Borrower to Agent given in accordance with §2.7, such sums as are requested by Borrower for the purposes set forth in §2.9 up to a maximum aggregate principal amount Outstanding (after giving effect to all amounts requested) at any one time equal to the lesser of (i) such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment and (ii) such Revolving Credit Lender’s Commitment Percentage of (A) the Facility Available Amount minus (B) the sum of (1) the amount of all Outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and (without duplication) Swing Loans and Term Loans and (2) the aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Liabilities; provided, that, in all events no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and provided, further, that the Outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans (after giving effect to all amounts requested), Term Loans, Swing Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities shall not at any time exceed the Total Commitment or cause a violation of the covenants set forth in §9. The Revolving Credit Loans shall be made pro rata in accordance with each Revolving Credit Lender’s Commitment Percentage. Each request for a Revolving Credit Loan hereunder shall constitute a representation and warranty by Borrower that all of the conditions required of Xxxxxxxx xxx xxxxx xx §00 and §11 have been satisfied on the date of such request (or if such condition is required to have been satisfied only as of the Closing Date, that such condition was satisfied as of the Closing Date). Agent may assume that the conditions in §10 and §11 have been satisfied unless it receives prior written notice from a Revolving Credit Lender that such conditions have not been satisfied. No Revolving Credit Lender shall have any obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans to Borrower in the maximum aggregate principal outstanding balance of more than the principal face amount of its Revolving Credit Note or its Revolving Credit Commitment, as applicable.

§2.2Notes. The Loans shall, if requested by each Lender, be evidenced by separate promissory notes of Borrower in substantially the form of Exhibit A-1 attached hereto for Revolving Credit Loans (“Revolving Credit Notes”), Exhibit A-2 attached hereto for 2021 Term Loans (“2021 Term Loan Notes”), or Exhibit A-3 attached hereto for 2022 Term Loans (“2022 Term Loan Notes”), as applicable (collectively, the “Notes”), dated of even date with this Agreement (except as otherwise provided in §18.3) and completed with appropriate insertions. One Note shall be payable to the order of each Lender which so requests the issuance of a Note in the principal amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment or, if less, the outstanding amount of all Loans made by such Lender, plus interest accrued thereon, as set forth below.

§2.3Unused Fee; Facility Fee. (a) Subject to §2.3(b) below, Borrower agrees to pay to Agent for the account of the Revolving Credit Lenders (other than any Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender) in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages a facility unused fee (the “Unused Fee”) calculated at the rate per annum as set forth below on the actual daily amount by which the Revolving Credit Commitment exceeds the outstanding principal amount of Revolving Credit Loans, Swing Loans and the face amount of Letters of Credit Outstanding during each calendar quarter or portion thereof commencing on the date hereof and ending on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date. The Unused Fee shall be calculated for each quarter based on the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of (i) the actual daily amount of the outstanding principal

amount of the Revolving Credit Loans and (without duplication) Swing Loans and the face amount of Letters of Credit Outstanding during such quarter to (ii) the Revolving Credit Commitment, and if such ratio is less than fifty percent (50%), the Unused Fee shall be payable at the rate of one quarter of one percent (0.25%) per annum, and if such ratio is equal to or greater than fifty percent (50%), the Unused Fee shall be payable at the rate of fifteen hundredths of one percent (0.15%) per annum. The Unused Fee shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the first (1st) Business Day of each calendar quarter for the immediately preceding calendar quarter or portion thereof, and on any earlier date on which the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be reduced or shall terminate as provided in §2.4, with a final payment on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date.

(c)In the event that Parent Guarantor achieves an Investment Grade Rating and Borrower makes a Ratings Grid Election, Borrower shall no longer pay the Unused Fee immediately following the end of the quarter during which Agent receives such notice. For each succeeding quarter, Borrower shall pay a facility fee (the “Facility Fee”) at the applicable rate set forth in the Debt Ratings pricing grid under clause (b)(1) of the definition of “Applicable Margin”, times the actual daily amount of each Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment, regardless of usage. The Facility Fee will be payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of each March, June, September and December, and on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date. If Borrower has made the Ratings Grid Election as described above but thereafter Parent Guarantor fails to maintain an Investment Grade Rating by at least one of S&P or Xxxxx’x, then (x) the Unused Fee shall be payable during the period commencing on the date Parent Guarantor no longer has an Investment Grade Rating by at least one of S&P or Xxxxx’x and ending on the date Borrower makes another Ratings Grid Election, and (y) no Facility Fee shall be payable during the period that the Unused Fee is payable.

(a)All interest and fees accrued and unpaid under the Existing Agreement as of the date of this Agreement with respect to Revolving Credit Loans (as defined in the Existing Agreement) shall be due and payable in the amount determined pursuant to the Existing Agreement for periods prior to the Closing Date on the next date established for payment of such interest or fee set forth in this Agreement.

§2.4Reduction and Termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments. Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time upon five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice to Agent to reduce by $25,000,000.00 or an integral multiple of $5,000,000.00 in excess thereof (provided that in no event shall the Revolving Credit Commitment be reduced in such manner to an amount less than $75,000,000.00 unless the Revolving Credit Commitment is terminated in full) or to terminate entirely the Revolving Credit Commitments, whereupon the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Revolving Credit Lenders shall be reduced pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages of the amount specified in such notice or, as the case may be, terminated, any such termination or reduction to be without penalty except as otherwise set forth in §4.8; provided, however, that no such termination or reduction shall be permitted if, after giving effect thereto, the sum of Outstanding Revolving Credit Loans, the Outstanding Swing Loans and the Letter of Credit Liabilities would exceed the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Revolving Credit Lenders as so terminated or reduced. Promptly after receiving any notice from Borrower delivered pursuant to this §2.4, Agent will notify the Revolving Credit Lenders of the substance thereof. Any reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments shall also result in a proportionate reduction (rounded to the next lowest integral multiple of $100,000.00) in the maximum amount of the Swing Loan Commitment and the Letter of Credit Commitment, respectively. Upon the effective date of any such reduction or termination, Borrower shall pay to Agent for the respective accounts of the Revolving Credit Lenders the full amount of any Unused Fee or Facility Fee under §2.3 then accrued on the amount of the reduction. No reduction or termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments may be reinstated.

§2.5Swing Loan Commitment.

(d)Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, each Swing Loan Lender agrees, in accordance with its respective Swing Loan Share, to lend to Borrower (the “Swing Loans”), and Borrower may borrow (and repay and reborrow) from time to time between the Closing Date and the date which is ten (10) Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date upon notice by Borrower to the Swing Loan Lenders given in accordance with this §2.5, such sums as are requested by Borrower for the purposes set forth in §2.9 in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding with respect to each Swing Loan Lender not exceeding such Swing Loan Lender’s Swing Loan Commitment; provided that in all events (i) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; (ii) if a Revolving Credit Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender, the requested amount of the Swing Loan shall be reduced by the amount of such Defaulting Lender’s participation interest in the Swing Loan; (iii) the Outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans and (without duplication) Swing Loans (after giving effect to all amounts requested) and Letter of Credit Liabilities shall not exceed the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment; and (iv) the Exposure (after giving effect to all amounts requested) shall not at any time exceed the lesser of (A) the aggregate Commitments or (B) the Facility Available Amount. The funding of a Swing Loan hereunder shall constitute a representation and warranty by Borrower that all of the conditions set forth in §10 and §11 have been satisfied on the date of such funding (or if such condition is required to have been satisfied only as of the initial Closing Date, that such condition was satisfied as of the Closing Date) or waived by Agent. Each Swing Loan Lender may assume that the conditions in §10 and §11 have been satisfied unless such Swing Loan Lender has received written notice from a Revolving Credit Lender that such conditions have not been satisfied. Each Swing Loan shall be due and payable within seven (7) days of the date such Swing Loan was provided and Borrower hereby agrees (to the extent not repaid as contemplated by §2.5(d) below) to repay each Swing Loan (whether or not demand for payment is made) on or before the date that is seven (7) days from the date such Swing Loan was provided.

(e)The Swing Loans shall be evidenced by separate promissory notes of Borrower in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto (the “Swing Loan Notes”), dated the date of this Agreement and completed with appropriate insertions. The Swing Loan Notes shall be payable to the order of the Swing Loan Lenders in the principal face amount equal to each such Swing Loan Lender’s Swing Loan Commitment and shall be payable as set forth below.

(f)Borrower shall request a Swing Loan by delivering to the Agent and the Swing Loan Lenders a Loan Request executed by an Authorized Officer, together with an executed Availability Certificate in the form of Exhibit F (each, an “Availability Certificate”), no later than 12:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the requested Drawdown Date specifying the amount of the requested Swing Loan (which shall be in the minimum amount of $1,000,000.00) and providing the wire instructions for the delivery of the Swing Loan proceeds. The Loan Request shall also contain the information required by §2.7 (to the extent applicable). Each such Loan Request shall be irrevocable and binding on Borrower and shall obligate Borrower to accept such Swing Loan on the Drawdown Date. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, a Swing Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan and shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate for Revolving Credit Base Rate Loans. The proceeds of the Swing Loan will be disbursed by wire by the Swing Loan Lenders (in accordance with their respective Swing Loan Shares) to Borrower no later than 3:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the requested Drawdown Date.

(g)The Swing Loan Lenders shall, within two (2) Business Days after the Drawdown Date with respect to such Swing Loan, request each Revolving Credit Lender, including the Swing Loan Lenders, to make a Revolving Credit Loan pursuant to §2.1 in an amount equal to such Revolving Credit Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the amount of the Swing Loan outstanding on the date such notice is given. In the event that Borrower does not

notify Agent in writing otherwise on or before noon (Eastern time) of the third (3rd) Business Day after the Drawdown Date with respect to such Swing Loan, Agent shall notify the Revolving Credit Lenders that such Revolving Credit Loan shall be a Revolving Credit Term SOFR Loan with an Interest Period of one (1) month, provided that the making of such Revolving Credit Term SOFR Loan will not be in contravention of any other provision of this Agreement, or if the making of a Revolving Credit Term SOFR Loan would be in contravention of this Agreement, then such notice shall indicate that such loan shall be a Revolving Credit Base Rate Loan. Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Swing Loan Lenders to so act on its behalf, and agrees that any amount advanced to Agent for the benefit of any Swing Loan Lender pursuant to this §2.5(d) shall be considered a Revolving Credit Loan pursuant to §2.1. Unless any of the events described in paragraph (h), (i), or (j) of §12.1 shall have occurred (in which event the procedures of §2.5(e) shall apply), each Revolving Credit Lender shall make the proceeds of its Revolving Credit Loan available to the applicable Swing Loan Lender for the account of such Swing Loan Lender at Agent’s Head Office prior to 12:00 noon (Eastern time) in funds immediately available no later than the third (3rd) Business Day after the date such notice is given just as if the Revolving Credit Lenders were funding directly to Borrower, so that thereafter such Obligations shall be evidenced by the Revolving Credit Notes. The proceeds of such Revolving Credit Loan shall be immediately applied to repay the Swing Loans.

(h)If for any reason a Swing Loan cannot be refinanced by a Revolving Credit Loan pursuant to §2.5(d) (including due to a Defaulting Lender’s failure to fund), each Revolving Credit Lender will, on the date such Revolving Credit Loan pursuant to §2.5(d) was to have been made, purchase an undivided participation interest in the Swing Loan in an amount equal to its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of such Swing Loan (or portion thereof). Each Revolving Credit Lender will immediately transfer to the Swing Loan Lenders in immediately available funds the applicable amount of its participation and upon receipt thereof each Swing Loan Lender will deliver to such Revolving Credit Lender a Swing Loan participation certificate dated the date of receipt of such funds and in the amount received by such Swing Loan Lender.

(i)Whenever at any time after a Swing Loan Lender has received from any Revolving Credit Lender such Revolving Credit Lender’s participation interest in a Swing Loan, or such Swing Loan Lender receives any payment on account thereof, such Swing Loan Lender will distribute to such Revolving Credit Lender its participation interest in such amount (appropriately adjusted in the case of interest payments to reflect the period of time during which such Revolving Credit Lender’s participating interest was outstanding and funded); provided, however, that in the event that such payment received by such Swing Loan Lender is required to be returned, such Revolving Credit Lender will return to such Swing Loan Lender any portion thereof previously distributed by such Swing Loan Lender to it.

(j)Each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to fund a Revolving Credit Loan as provided in §2.5(d) or to purchase participation interests pursuant to §2.5(e) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including, without limitation, (i) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Credit Lender or Borrower may have against any Swing Loan Lender, Borrower or anyone else for any reason whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default; (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries; (iv) any breach of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents by Borrower or any Lender; or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. Any portions of a Swing Loan not so purchased or converted may be treated by Agent and the Swing Loan Lenders as against such Revolving Credit Lender as a Revolving Credit Loan which was not funded by the non-purchasing Revolving Credit Lender as contemplated by §2.8 and §12.5, and shall have such rights and remedies against such Revolving Credit Lender as are set forth in §2.8, §12.5, and §14.5. Each

Swing Loan, once so sold or converted, shall cease to be a Swing Loan for the purposes of this Agreement, but shall be a Revolving Credit Loan made by each Revolving Credit Lender under its Revolving Credit Commitment.

§2.6Interest on Loans.

(k)[Reserved].

(l)Each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest for the period commencing with the Drawdown Date thereof and ending on the date on which such Base Rate Loan is repaid or converted to a SOFR Loan at the rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans.

(m)Each Daily Simple SOFR Loan shall bear interest for the period commencing with the Drawdown Date thereof and ending on the date on which such Daily Simple SOFR Loan is repaid or converted to a Term SOFR Loan or a Base Rate Loan, at the rate per annum equal to Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR plus the Applicable Margin for SOFR Loans.

(n)Each Term SOFR Loan shall bear interest for the period commencing with the Drawdown Date thereof and ending on the last day of each Interest Period with respect thereto, at the rate per annum equal to the sum of Adjusted Term SOFR determined for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin for SOFR Loans.

(o)Borrower promises to pay interest on each Loan in arrears on each Interest Payment Date with respect thereto.

(p)Base Rate Loans and SOFR Loans may be converted to Loans of the same Class by the other Type as provided in §4.1.

(q)The parties understand that the applicable interest rate for the Loans and certain fees set forth herein may be determined and/or adjusted from time to time based upon certain financial ratios and/or other information to be provided or certified to Lenders by Borrower (the “Borrower Information”). If it is subsequently determined that any such Borrower Information was incorrect (for whatever reason, including without limitation because of a subsequent restatement of earnings by Borrower) at the time it was delivered to Agent, and if the applicable interest rate or fees calculated for any period were different than they should have been had the correct information been timely provided, then, such interest rate and such fees for such period shall be automatically recalculated using correct Borrower Information. Agent shall promptly notify Borrower in writing of any additional interest and fees due because of such recalculation, and Borrower shall pay such additional interest or fees due to Agent, for the account of each Lender, within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such written notice. Borrower shall receive a credit or refund of any overpayment promptly after such determination. Any recalculation of interest or fees required by this provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement for a period of one hundred eighty (180) days, and this provision shall not in any way limit any of Agent’s, any Issuing Lender’s, or any Lender’s other rights under this Agreement.

§2.7Requests for Revolving Credit Loans. Borrower shall give to Agent written notice executed by an Authorized Officer in the form of Exhibit D hereto (or telephonic notice confirmed in writing in the form of Exhibit D hereto) of each Revolving Credit Loan requested hereunder (a “Loan Request”) by 1:00 p.m. (Eastern time) one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed Drawdown Date with respect to Base Rate Loans or Daily Simple SOFR Loans and two (2) Business Days prior to the proposed Drawdown Date with respect to Term SOFR Loans, together with an executed Availability Certificate. Each such notice shall specify with respect to

the requested Loan the proposed principal amount of such Loan, the Type of Loan, the initial Interest Period (if applicable) for such Loan and the Drawdown Date. Promptly upon receipt of any such notice, Agent shall notify each of the Lenders thereof. Each such Loan Request shall be irrevocable and binding on Borrower and shall obligate Borrower to accept the Loan requested from the Lenders on the proposed Drawdown Date. The Borrower shall be liable to each Lender for any costs or expenses incurred by such Lender in the event that it fails to borrow any requested Term SOFR Loan. Nothing herein shall prevent Borrower from seeking recourse against any Lender that fails to advance its proportionate share of a requested Loan as required by this Agreement. Each Loan Request shall be (a) for a Base Rate Loan or Daily Simple SOFR Loan in a minimum aggregate amount of $100,000.00; or (b) for a Term SOFR Loan in a minimum aggregate amount of $500,000.00; provided, however, that there shall be no more than seven (7) Term SOFR Loans outstanding at any one time. If no election as to the Type of Loan is specified, then the requested Loan shall be a Daily Simple SOFR Loan. If no election is specified as to whether a SOFR Loan is to be a Term SOFR Loan or Daily Simple SOFR Loan, then the requested SOFR Loan shall be a Daily Simple SOFR Loan. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Term SOFR Loan, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one (1) month.

§2.8Funds for Loans.

(r)Not later than noon (Eastern time) on the proposed Drawdown Date of any Loans of any Class, each of the Lenders of such Class will make available to Agent, at Agent’s Head Office, in immediately available funds, the amount of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the amount of the requested Loans of such Class which may be disbursed pursuant to §2.1. Upon receipt from each such Lender of such amount, and upon receipt of the documents required by §10 and §11 and the satisfaction of the other conditions set forth therein (except, in each case, to the extent waived by Agent) to the extent applicable, Agent will make available to Borrower the aggregate amount of such Loans made available to Agent by the Lenders of such Class by crediting such amount to the account of Borrower maintained at Agent’s Head Office or wiring such funds in accordance with Borrower’s written instructions. The failure or refusal of any Lender to make available to Agent at the aforesaid time and place on any Drawdown Date the amount of its Applicable Percentage of the requested Loans shall not relieve any other Lender from its several obligation hereunder to make available to Agent the amount of such other Lender’s Applicable Percentage of any requested Loans, including any additional Loans that may be requested subject to the terms and conditions hereof to provide funds to replace those not advanced by the Lender so failing or refusing.

(s)Unless Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the applicable Drawdown Date that such Lender will not make available to Agent such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of a proposed Loan of such Class, Agent may in its discretion assume that such Lender has made such Loan available to Agent in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and Agent may, if it chooses, in reliance upon such assumption make such Loan available to Borrower, and such Lender shall be liable to Agent for the amount of such advance. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount upon Agent’s demand therefor, Agent will promptly notify Borrower, and Borrower shall promptly pay such corresponding amount to Agent. Agent shall also be entitled to recover from such Lender or Borrower (without duplication), as the case may be, interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by Agent to Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by Agent at a per annum rate equal to (i) from Borrower at the applicable rate for such Loan or (ii) from a Lender at the Federal Funds Effective Rate.

§2.9Use of Proceeds. Borrower will use the proceeds of the Loans and the Letters of Credit solely to (a) pay closing costs in connection with this Agreement; (b) fund the direct or indirect acquisition of additional Multifamily Properties located within the fifty (50) States of the

continental United States or the District of Columbia; (c) fund capital and construction expenditures, tenant improvements, leasing or other commissions and property and equipment acquisitions within the fifty (50) States of the continental United States or the District of Columbia; (d) repay amounts owed under the Existing Credit Agreement; and (e) for general working capital purposes (including without limitation to finance interest shortfalls, general operating expenses, including without limitation taxes, insurance and other expenses, and the payment of fees and expenses related to the Facility).

§2.10Letters of Credit.

(t)Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, at any time and from time to time from the Closing Date through the day that is thirty (30) days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, the applicable Issuing Lender shall issue such Letters of Credit as Borrower may request upon the delivery of a written request in the form of Exhibit E hereto (a “Letter of Credit Request”), together with an executed Availability Certificate, to such Issuing Lender, provided that (i) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (ii) upon issuance of such Letter of Credit, the aggregate Letter of Credit Liabilities shall not exceed the aggregate Letter of Credit Commitments and the Letter of Credit Liabilities of the applicable Issuing Lender shall not exceed such Issuing Lender’s Letter of Credit Commitment, which Letter of Credit Commitment shall be automatically increased on a pro rata basis with increases in the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments, (iii) in no event shall the aggregate Exposure (after giving effect to all Letters of Credit requested) exceed the Total Commitment or the Facility Available Amount, (iv) the conditions set forth in §10 and §11 shall have been satisfied (or if such condition is required to have been satisfied only as of the Closing Date, that such condition was satisfied as of the Closing Date) or waived by Agent, (v) no Revolving Credit Lender is a Defaulting Lender (provided the applicable Issuing Lender may, in its sole discretion, be entitled to waive this condition), unless the applicable Issuing Lender has entered into arrangements, including the delivery of cash collateral, satisfactory to such Issuing Lender (in its sole discretion) with Borrower or such Defaulting Lender to eliminate such Issuing Lender’s actual or potential Fronting Exposure with respect to the Defaulting Lender arising from either the Letter of Credit then proposed to be issued or that Letter of Credit and all other Letter of Credit Liabilities as to which such Issuing Lender has actual or potential Fronting Exposure, as it may elect in its sole discretion, and (vi) in no event shall any amount drawn under a Letter of Credit be available for reinstatement or a subsequent drawing under such Letter of Credit. The applicable Issuing Lender may assume that the conditions in §10 and §11 have been satisfied unless it receives written notice from a Revolving Credit Lender that such conditions have not been satisfied. Each Letter of Credit Request shall be executed on behalf of Borrower by an Authorized Officer of Borrower. The Issuing Lenders shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such Person’s authority to request a Letter of Credit on behalf of Borrower. The Issuing Lenders shall have no duty to verify the authenticity of any signature appearing on a Letter of Credit Request. Borrower assumes all risks with respect to the use of the Letters of Credit. Unless the applicable Issuing Lender and the Required Lenders otherwise consent, the term of any Letter of Credit shall not exceed a period of time commencing on the issuance of the Letter of Credit and ending one year after the date of issuance thereof, subject to extension pursuant to an “evergreen” clause (as set forth below) reasonably acceptable to Agent and the applicable Issuing Lender (but in any event the term shall not extend beyond thirty (30) days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date unless Borrower has provided to Agent cash collateral reasonably acceptable to Agent in an amount equal to the Letter of Credit Liability with respect to any Letter of Credit which extends beyond thirty (30) days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date). The amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit shall reduce on a dollar-for-dollar basis the amount available to be drawn under the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments as a Revolving Credit Loan.

If the Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Request (or the amendment of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the applicable Issuing Lender may, in its sole discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit shall permit such Issuing Lender to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon by the Borrower and the applicable Issuing Lender at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the applicable Issuing Lender, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to such Issuing Lender for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Revolving Credit Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the applicable Issuing Lender to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiration date not later than the date permitted pursuant to the first paragraph of this Section 2.10(a); provided, that such Issuing Lender shall not (i) permit any such extension if (A) such Issuing Lender has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation, at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its extended form under the terms hereof (except that the expiration date may be extended to a date that is no more than one year from the then-current expiration date) or (B) it has received notice (which may be in writing or by telephone (if promptly confirmed in writing)) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date from the Agent that the Required Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (ii) be obligated to permit such extension if it has received notice (which may be in writing or by telephone (if promptly confirmed in writing)) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date from the Agent, any Revolving Credit Lender or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions set forth in §11 is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing such Issuing Lender not to permit such extension.

(u)Each Letter of Credit Request shall be submitted to the applicable Issuing Lender and Agent (if Agent is not the applicable Issuing Lender) at least three (3) Business Days (or such shorter period as such Issuing Lender may approve) prior to the date upon which the requested Letter of Credit is to be issued. Each such Letter of Credit Request shall contain (i) a statement as to the purpose for which such Letter of Credit shall be used (which purpose shall be in accordance with the terms of this Agreement), and (ii) a certification by an Authorized Officer or the chief financial or chief accounting officer of Parent Guarantor that Borrower is and will be in compliance with all covenants under the Loan Documents after giving effect to the issuance of such Letter of Credit. Borrower shall further deliver to the applicable Issuing Lender such additional applications (which application as of the date hereof is in the form of Exhibit I hereto or such other form as the Issuing Bank may request) and documents as such Issuing Lender may reasonably require, in conformity with the then standard practices of its letter of credit department applicable to all or substantially all similarly situated borrowers, in connection with the issuance of such Letter of Credit; provided that in the event of any conflict, the terms of this Agreement shall control.

(v) The applicable Issuing Lender shall, subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, issue the Letter of Credit on or before three (3) Business Days following receipt of the documents last due pursuant to §2.10(b). Each Letter of Credit shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Issuing Lender in its reasonable discretion.

(w)Upon the issuance of a Letter of Credit, each Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to have purchased a participation therein from the applicable Issuing Lender, and with respect to any Existing Letters of Credit, each Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to have purchased a participation therein from the applicable Existing Issuing Lender on the Closing Date, in each case in an amount equal to its respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the amount of such Letter of Credit. No Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to

participate in a Letter of Credit shall be affected by any other Revolving Credit Lender’s failure to perform as required herein with respect to such Letter of Credit or any other Letter of Credit.

(x)Upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, Borrower shall pay to the applicable Issuing Lender (i) for its own account, a Letter of Credit fronting fee with respect to each Letter of Credit, at a rate equal to one eighth of one percent (0.125%), computed on the face amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit and (ii) for the accounts of the Revolving Credit Lenders (including such Issuing Lender) in accordance with their respective percentage shares of participation in such Letter of Credit, a Letter of Credit fee calculated at the rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin then applicable to Term SOFR Loans that are Revolving Credit Loans on the amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. Such fees shall be payable in quarterly installments in arrears with respect to each Letter of Credit on the first (1st) day of each calendar quarter following the date of issuance and continuing on each quarter or portion thereof thereafter, as applicable, or on any earlier date on which the Revolving Credit Commitments shall terminate and on the expiration or return of any Letter of Credit (if such letter of credit is outstanding less than a full quarter, such fee shall be prorated for the period of time outstanding). In addition, Borrower shall pay to the applicable Issuing Lender for its own account within ten (10) Business Days of demand of such Issuing Lender the standard issuance, documentation and service charges applicable to all or substantially all similarly situated borrowers for Letters of Credit issued from time to time by such Issuing Lender.

(y)In the event that any amount is drawn under a Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof, Borrower shall reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender by having such amount drawn treated as an outstanding Base Rate Loan under this Agreement (Borrower being deemed to have requested a Base Rate Loan on such date in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing and such amount drawn shall be treated as an outstanding Base Rate Loan under this Agreement) and Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Credit Lender by telex, telecopy, telegram, telephone (confirmed in writing) or other similar means of transmission, and each Revolving Credit Lender shall promptly and unconditionally pay to Agent, for the applicable Issuing Lender’s own account, an amount equal to such Revolving Credit Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such Letter of Credit (to the extent of the amount drawn). Borrower further hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs Agent to notify the Revolving Credit Lenders of Borrower’s intent to convert such Base Rate Loan to a Term SOFR Loan with an Interest Period of one (1) month on the third (3rd) Business Day following the funding by the Revolving Credit Lenders of their advance under this §2.10(f), provided that the making of such Term SOFR Loan shall not be a contravention of any provision of this Agreement. If and to the extent any Revolving Credit Lender shall not make such amount available on the Business Day on which such draw is funded, such Revolving Credit Lender agrees to pay such amount to Agent forthwith on demand, together with interest thereon, for each day from the date on which such draw was funded until the date on which such amount is paid to Agent, at the Federal Funds Effective Rate until three (3) days after the date on which Agent gives notice of such draw and at the Federal Funds Effective Rate plus one percent (1.0%) for each day thereafter. Further, such Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to have assigned any and all payments made of principal and interest on its Revolving Credit Loans, amounts due with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit and any other amounts due to it hereunder to Agent to fund the amount of any drawn Letter of Credit which such Revolving Credit Lender was required to fund pursuant to this §2.10(f) until such amount has been funded (as a result of such assignment or otherwise). In the event of any such failure or refusal, the Revolving Credit Lenders not so failing or refusing shall be entitled to a priority secured position for such amounts as provided in §12.5. The failure of any Revolving Credit Lender to make funds available to Agent in such amount shall not relieve any other Revolving Credit Lender of its obligation hereunder to make funds available to Agent pursuant to this §2.10(f).

(z)If after the issuance of a Letter of Credit pursuant to §2.10(c) by an Issuing Lender, but prior to the funding of any portion thereof by a Revolving Credit Lender, for any reason a drawing under a Letter of Credit cannot be refinanced as a Revolving Credit Loan, each Revolving Credit Lender will, on the date such Revolving Credit Loan pursuant to §2.10(f) was to have been made, purchase an undivided participation interest in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to its Commitment Percentage of the amount of such Letter of Credit. Each Revolving Credit Lender will immediately transfer to such Issuing Lender in immediately available funds the amount of its participation and upon receipt thereof such Issuing Lender will deliver to such Revolving Credit Lender a Letter of Credit participation certificate dated the date of receipt of such funds and in such amount.

(aa)Whenever at any time after an Issuing Lender has received from any Revolving Credit Lender any such Revolving Credit Lender’s payment of funds under a Letter of Credit and thereafter such Issuing Lender receives any payment on account thereof, then such Issuing Lender will distribute to such Revolving Credit Lender its participation interest in such amount (appropriately adjusted in the case of interest payments to reflect the period of time during which such Revolving Credit Lender’s participation interest was outstanding and funded); provided, however, that in the event that such payment received by such Issuing Lender is required to be returned, such Revolving Credit Lender will return to such Issuing Lender any portion thereof previously distributed by such Issuing Lender to it.

(ab)The issuance of any supplement, modification, amendment, renewal or extension to or of any Letter of Credit shall be treated in all respects the same as the issuance of a new Letter of Credit.

(ac)Borrower assumes all risks of the acts, omissions, or misuse of any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof. None of Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender will be responsible for (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any Letter of Credit or any document submitted by any party in connection with the issuance of any Letter of Credit, even if such document should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (ii) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) failure of any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit to comply fully with the conditions required in order to demand payment under a Letter of Credit or the acceptance of documents that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and the making of any payment upon presentation of documents that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit and without regard to any non-documentary condition in such Letter of Credit; (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise; (v) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document or draft required by or from a beneficiary in order to make a disbursement under a Letter of Credit or the proceeds thereof; (vii) for the misapplication by the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; and (viii) for any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of Agent or any Lender, none of the foregoing will affect, impair or prevent the vesting of any of the rights or powers granted to Agent, any Issuing Lender or Lenders hereunder. In furtherance and extension and not in limitation or derogation of any of the foregoing, any act taken or omitted to be taken by Agent, any Issuing Lender or any other Lender in good faith will be binding on Borrower and will not put Agent, any Issuing Lender or any other Lender under any resulting liability to Borrower; provided nothing contained herein shall relieve any Issuing Lender, Agent or any other Lender for liability to Borrower arising as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such

Issuing Lender, Agent or such Lender, as applicable, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction after the exhaustion of all applicable appeal periods.

§2.11Increase in Total Commitment.

(ad)Provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this §2.11, Borrower shall have the option at any time and from time to time before the date that is thirty (30) days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date (or the extended Revolving Credit Maturity Date, as applicable, if Borrower exercises its extension option pursuant to §2.12) to request an increase in the Total Commitment to an amount not greater than One Billion Five Hundred Million Dollars ($1,500,000,000.00) by giving written notice to Agent (an “Increase Notice”; and the amount of such requested increase is a “Commitment Increase”) which increase shall be allocated at Borrower’s request to the Revolving Credit Commitments or any Term Loan Commitment; provided that no such request for a Commitment Increase shall be in an amount less than Twenty Five Million Dollars ($25,000,000.00). Agent shall send a notice to all Lenders (the “Additional Commitment Request Notice”) informing them of Borrower’s request to increase the Total Commitment. Each Lender who desires to provide an additional Commitment upon such terms shall provide Agent with a written commitment letter specifying the amount of the additional Commitment by which it is willing to provide prior to such deadline as may be specified in the Additional Commitment Request Notice. If the requested increase is oversubscribed then Agent and Arrangers shall allocate the Commitment Increase among such Lenders who provide such commitment letters on such basis mutually acceptable to Borrower, Agent and Arrangers. If the additional Commitments so provided are not sufficient to provide the full amount of the Commitment Increase requested by Borrower, then Agent, Arrangers or Borrower may, but shall not be obligated to, invite, and Agent, in consultation with Borrower, will use its reasonable efforts to arrange for, one or more banks or lending institutions (which banks or lending institutions shall be reasonably acceptable to Agent, Arrangers and Borrower) to become a Lender and provide an additional Commitment (each such Lender, an “Acceding Lender”). Agent shall promptly provide all Lenders and Acceding Lenders with a notice setting forth the amount, if any, of the additional Commitment to be provided by each Lender and Acceding Lender and the revised Commitment Percentages (as well as the revised Maximum Facility Amount and the revised amount of the Letter of Credit Commitment and the Swing Loan Commitment, respectively) which shall be applicable after the effective date of the Commitment Increase specified therein (the “Commitment Increase Date”). In no event shall any Lender be obligated to provide an additional Commitment.

(ae)On any Commitment Increase Date the Outstanding principal balance of the applicable Loans shall be reallocated among the Lenders (including any Acceding Lenders) such that after the applicable Commitment Increase Date the Outstanding principal amount of Loans owed to each Lender shall be equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage (as in effect after the applicable Commitment Increase Date) of the Outstanding principal amount of all applicable Loans. The participation interests of the Revolving Credit Lenders in Swing Loans and Letters of Credit shall be similarly adjusted as applicable. On any Commitment Increase Date each Lender whose Commitment Percentage is increasing shall advance the funds to Agent and the funds so advanced shall be distributed among the Lenders whose Commitment Percentage is decreasing as necessary to accomplish the required reallocation of the Outstanding Loans. The funds so advanced shall be Base Rate Loans until converted to SOFR Loans which are allocated among all Lenders based on their applicable Commitment Percentages, after giving effect to any Commitment Increase, as reasonably determined by Agent.

(af)Upon the effective date of each increase in the Total Commitment pursuant to this §2.11, each Acceding Lender shall become a Lender party to this Agreement as of such date and shall execute an accession agreement in form and substance reasonably

satisfactory to Borrower and Agent (each, an “Accession Agreement”) Agent may unilaterally revise Schedule 1.1-A hereto and Borrower shall, if requested by such Lender, execute and deliver to Agent new Notes for each Lender whose Commitment has changed so that the principal amount of such Lender’s applicable Notes shall equal its Commitment. Agent shall deliver such replacement Notes (or new Notes, in the case of Acceding Lenders) to the respective Lenders in exchange for the Notes replaced thereby (if applicable) which shall be surrendered by such Lenders. Such new Notes shall (if applicable) provide that they are replacements for the surrendered Notes and (if applicable) that they do not constitute a novation, shall be dated as of the Commitment Increase Date and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of Exhibit X-0, X-0 xxx/xx X-0 hereto.

(ag)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any obligation of Agent and Lenders to increase the Total Commitment pursuant to this §2.11 shall be conditioned upon satisfaction or waiver of the following conditions precedent which must be satisfied or waived prior to the effectiveness of any increase of the Total Commitment:

(i)Payment of Fees. Borrower shall pay to Agent those fees described in and contemplated by any applicable Agreement Regarding Fees with respect to the applicable Commitment Increase; and

(ii)No Default. On the date any Increase Notice is given and on the date such increase becomes effective, both immediately before and after the Total Commitment is increased, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and

(iii)Representations True. The representations and warranties made by Borrower and Guarantors, respectively, in the Loan Documents or otherwise made by or on behalf of Borrower and Guarantors, respectively, in connection therewith shall also be true and correct in all material respects on the date of such Increase Notice and on the date the Total Commitment is increased, both immediately before and after the Total Commitment is increased (it being understood and agreed that any representation or warranty which by its terms is made as of a specified date shall be required to be true and correct only as of such specified date); and

(iv)Additional Documents and Expenses. Borrower and Guarantors shall execute and deliver to Agent and Lenders such additional documents and opinions as Agent may reasonably require, including, without limitation, a Compliance Certificate, demonstrating compliance with all covenants set forth in the Loan Documents after giving effect to the increase, a certificate signed on behalf of Borrower by an Authorized Officer confirming the statements in clauses (ii) and (iii) of this §2.11(d), and Borrower shall pay the cost of any reasonable and documented fees, taxes or expenses which are reasonably requested in connection with such increase.

§2.12Extension of Revolving Credit Maturity Date. Borrower shall have the right and option to extend the Revolving Credit Maturity Date to July 31, 2026, and then to January 31, 2027, in each case upon satisfaction or waiver (with any such waiver requiring the approval of all Lenders) of the following conditions precedent, which must be satisfied (or so waived) prior to the effectiveness of any extension of the Revolving Credit Maturity Date:

(ah)Extension Request. Borrower shall deliver written notice of such request (the “Extension Request”) to Agent not earlier than the date which is one hundred twenty (120) days and not later than the date which is sixty (60) days prior to the then applicable Revolving Credit Maturity Date (as determined without regard to such extension). Any such Extension Request shall be irrevocable and binding on Borrower unless otherwise agreed to by Agent in its reasonable discretion.

(ai)Payment of Extension Fee. Borrower shall pay to Agent for the pro rata accounts of the Revolving Credit Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitments an extension fee in an amount equal to six and one-quarter (6.25) basis points on the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments of the Revolving Credit Lenders in effect on the then applicable Revolving Credit Maturity Date, after taking into consideration any reduction in the Revolving Credit Commitments as of such date (as determined without regard to such extension), which fee shall, when paid, be fully earned and non-refundable.

(aj)No Default. On the date the Extension Request is given and on the then applicable Revolving Credit Maturity Date (as determined without regard to such extension) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and Borrower shall deliver to Agent a certificate signed on behalf of Borrower by an Authorized Officer stating the same.

(ak)Prior Extension. For the extension to January 31, 2027, the extension to July 31, 2026 shall have been previously effected.

(al)Representations and Warranties. The representations and warranties made by Borrower and Guarantors, respectively, in the Loan Documents or otherwise made by or on behalf of Borrower and Guarantors, respectively, in connection therewith shall be true and correct in all material respects on the date the Extension Request is given and on the then applicable Revolving Credit Maturity Date (as determined without regard to such extension), it being understood and agreed that any representation or warranty which by its terms is made as of a specified date shall be required to be true and correct only as of such specified date, and Borrower shall deliver to Agent a certificate signed on behalf of Borrower by an Authorized Officer stating the same.

§2.13[Reserved].

§2.14Reallocation of Lender Commitment Percentages; No Novation. On the Closing Date, the Loans (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) made under the Existing Credit Agreement shall be deemed to have been made under this Agreement, without the execution by Borrower or Lenders of any other documentation, and all such Loans currently outstanding shall be deemed to have been simultaneously reallocated among Lenders as follows:

(am)On the Closing Date, each Lender that will have a greater Commitment Percentage upon the Closing Date than its Commitment Percentage (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) with respect to the Facility (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) immediately prior to the Closing Date (each, a “Purchasing Lender”), without executing an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, shall be deemed to have purchased assignments pro rata from each Lender that will have a smaller Commitment Percentage upon the Closing Date than its Commitment Percentage (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) with respect to the Facility (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) immediately prior to the Closing Date (each, a “Selling Lender”) in all such Selling Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as a Lender (collectively, the “Assigned Rights and Obligations”) so that, after giving effect to such assignments, each Lender shall have its respective Commitment as set forth in Schedule 1.1-A hereto and a corresponding Pro Rata Share of all Loans then outstanding under the Facility. Each such purchase hereunder shall be at par for a purchase price equal to the principal amount of the loans and without recourse, representation or warranty, except that each Selling Lender shall be deemed to represent and warrant to each Purchasing Lender that the Assigned Rights and Obligations of such Selling Lender are not subject to any Liens created by that Selling Lender. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the aggregate amount of each Lender’s Loans outstanding at any time exceed its Commitment as set forth in Schedule 1.1-A hereto.

(an)Each Lender that would incur any loss, cost or expense as a result of the reallocations set forth in §2.14(a) above in respect of Term SOFR Loans to the extent such reallocations take place on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) for such Term SOFR Loans hereby waives reimbursement from the Loan Parties for any such loss, cost or expense.

(ao)Agent shall calculate the net amount to be paid or received by each Lender in connection with the assignments effected hereunder on the Closing Date. Each Lender required to make a payment pursuant to this Section shall make the net amount of its required payment available to Agent, in same day funds, at the office of Agent not later than 12:00 P.M. (New York time) on the Closing Date. Agent shall distribute on the Closing Date the proceeds of such amounts to Lenders entitled to receive payments pursuant to this Section, pro rata in proportion to the amount each such Lender is entitled to receive at the primary address set forth in Schedule 19 hereto or at such other address as such Lender may request in writing to Agent.

(ap)Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as a discharge, extinguishment or novation of the Obligations of the Loan Parties outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement or any instruments securing the same, which Obligations shall remain outstanding under this Agreement after the date hereof as “Loans” except as expressly modified hereby or by instruments executed concurrently with this Agreement.

§2.15Pro Rata Treatment.

(aq)As provided elsewhere herein, all interests of the Revolving Credit Lenders in the Revolving Credit Loans, all interests of the Term Lenders in the Term Loans, and all Lenders’ interests in the Loan Documents shall be ratable undivided interests and none of such Lenders’ interests shall have priority over the others. Each payment delivered to the Agent for the account of any Lender or amount to be applied or paid by the Agent to any Lender shall be paid promptly by the Agent to such Lender in the same type of funds that the Agent received at such Lender’s address specified pursuant to §20. The Agent is hereby authorized to charge the account of Borrower maintained with KeyBank for each payment of principal, interest and fees as it becomes due hereunder.

(ar)Except to the extent otherwise explicitly provided in this Agreement: (i) (a) each borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans shall be made from the Revolving Credit Lenders, each payment of the fees under §2.3 and §2.10(e) shall be made for the account of the Revolving Credit Lenders, and each termination or reduction of the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments under §2.3 shall be applied to the respective Revolving Credit Commitments of the Revolving Credit Lenders, pro rata according to the amounts of their respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages; (ii) each payment or prepayment of principal of Revolving Credit Loans shall be made for the account of the Revolving Credit Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Revolving Credit Loans held by them, provided that, subject to §14.16, if immediately prior to giving effect to any such payment in respect of any Revolving Credit Loans the outstanding amount of the Revolving Credit Loans shall not be held by the Revolving Credit Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitments in effect at the time such Revolving Credit Loans were made, then such payment shall be applied to the Revolving Credit Loans in such manner as shall result, as nearly as is practicable, in the outstanding amount of the Revolving Credit Loans being held by the Revolving Credit Lenders pro rata in accordance with such respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages; (iii) each payment or prepayment of principal of Term Loans shall be made for the account of the applicable Term Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of the applicable

Term Loans held by them; (iv) each payment of interest on Loans of a Class shall be made for the account of the Lenders of such Class pro rata in accordance with the amounts of interest on such Loans then due and payable to the respective Lenders of such Class; (v) the conversion and continuation of Loans of a particular Class and Type shall be made pro rata among the Lenders of such Class according to the amounts of their respective Loans of such Class, and the then current Interest Period for each Lender’s portion of each such Loan of such Type shall be coterminous; (vi) the Revolving Credit Lenders’ participation in, and payment obligations in respect of, Letters of Credit under §2.10, shall be in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages; and (vii) the Revolving Credit Lenders’ participation in, and payment obligations in respect of, Swing Loans under §2.5, shall be in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages. All payments of principal, interest, fees and other amounts in respect of the Swing Loans shall be for the account of the Swing Loan Lender only (except to the extent any Revolving Credit Lender shall have acquired and funded a participating interest in any such Swing Loan pursuant to §2.5(e), in which case such payments shall be pro rata in accordance with such participating interests).

§3.REPAYMENT OF THE LOANS.

§3.1Stated Maturity. Borrower promises to pay (a) on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and there shall become absolutely due and payable on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date all of the Revolving Credit Loans, Swing Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities outstanding on such date (other than Letters of Credit whose expiration date is beyond the Revolving Credit Maturity Date as set forth in §2.10(a)), (b) on the 2021 Term Loan Maturity Date, the 2021 Term Loans, if any, outstanding on such date, and (c) on the 2022 Term Loan Maturity Date, the 2022 Term Loans, if any, outstanding on such date, in each case together with any and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

§3.2Mandatory Prepayments.

(as)Borrower shall, if applicable, within five (5) Business Days after the earlier of the date on which (i) a Responsible Officer of Borrower has knowledge of any non-compliance with the requirements described in the following clauses (A), (B), (C), (D), (E), (F) or (G) or (ii) written notice of any such non-compliance shall have been given to Borrower by Agent, prepay an aggregate principal amount of the Loans or any other Indebtedness in an amount sufficient to cause (A) the Exposure not to exceed the Maximum Facility Amount on such Business Day, (B) the Revolving Credit Exposure not to exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitments, (C) the Letter of Credit Liabilities not to exceed the Letter of Credit Commitments as of such Business Day, (D) [reserved], (E) the Consolidated Leverage Ratio not to exceed the applicable maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio set forth in §9.1 on such Business Day, (F) the Unsecured Interest Coverage Ratio to equal or exceed the Minimum Unsecured Interest Coverage Ratio set forth in §9.6 on such Business Day, and (G) the Unsecured Leverage Ratio not to exceed the applicable maximum Unsecured Leverage Ratio set forth in §9.9 on such Business Day.

(at)Prepayments of the Facility made pursuant to §3.2(a) shall first be applied to the Loans on a pro rata basis based on the Outstanding principal amount thereof as of the date of the applicable prepayment (except that the amount of any Swing Loans shall be paid solely to the Swing Loan Lenders); provided, however, that such prepayments shall, at the option of Borrower, first be applied to the Loans and any Obligations under Letters of Credit to cure any non-compliance relating thereto. Any prepayment amounts remaining thereafter shall be

deposited into the XX Xxxx Collateral Account, in an amount up to the LC Exposure as security for the Obligations. Upon the drawing of any Letter of Credit for which funds are on deposit in the XX Xxxx Collateral Account, such funds shall be applied to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender or Lenders, as applicable. All prepayments under this §3.2 shall be made together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid, together with any additional amounts payable pursuant to §4.8.

(au)To the extent the funds on deposit in the XX Xxxx Collateral Account shall at any time exceed the total amount required to be deposited therein pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, Agent shall, promptly upon request by Borrower and provided that no Default or Event of Default shall then have occurred or be continuing or would result therefrom, return such excess amount to Borrower.

§3.3Optional Prepayments.

(av)Borrower shall have the right, at their election, to prepay the Outstanding amount of the Loans of any Class and Swing Loans, as a whole or in part, at any time without penalty or premium; provided, that if any prepayment of the Outstanding amount of any SOFR Loans pursuant to this §3.3 is made on a date that is not the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto, such prepayment shall be accompanied by the payment of any amounts due pursuant to §4.8.

(aw)Borrower shall give Agent, no later than 1:00 p.m. (Eastern time) at least three (3) days’ prior written notice of any prepayment pursuant to this §3.3, in each case specifying the proposed date of prepayment of the Loans, the Class of Loans to be prepaid, and the principal amount to be prepaid (provided that (i) any such notice may be revoked or modified upon one (1) day’s prior notice to Agent) and/or (ii) any such notice or repayment may be conditioned upon the consummation of a transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no prior notice shall be required for the prepayment of any Swing Loan.

§3.4Partial Prepayments. Each partial prepayment of the Loans under §3.3 shall be in a minimum amount of $100,000.00, shall be accompanied by the payment of accrued interest on the principal prepaid to the date of payment. Each partial payment under §3.2 and §3.3 shall be applied first to the principal of any Outstanding Swing Loans (pro rata to each Swing Loan Lender based upon the ratio of such Swing Loan Lender’s Swing Loan Commitment to the total Swing Loan Commitments of all of the Swing Loan Lenders), and then, in the absence of instruction by Borrower, to the principal of the Revolving Credit Loans (and with respect to each Type of Loan, first to the principal of Base Rate Loans, then to the principal of Daily Simple SOFR Loans, and then to the principal of Term SOFR Loans), and then to the Term Loans in accordance with the terms hereof.

§3.5Effect of Prepayments. Amounts of the Revolving Credit Loans prepaid under §3.2 and §3.3 prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date may be reborrowed as provided in §2; amounts of the Term Loans prepaid or repaid hereunder may not be reborrowed.

§3.6Sharing of Payments, Etc.

Subject to the provisions of §12.5, if any Lender shall obtain at any time any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set off, or otherwise, other than as a result of an assignment pursuant to §18) (i) on account of Obligations due and payable to such Lender under the Loan Documents at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (x) the amount of such Obligations due and payable to such Lender at such time to (y) the aggregate amount of the Obligations due and payable to all Lenders under the Loan Documents at such time) of payments on account of the Obligations due and payable to all

Lenders under the Loan Documents at such time obtained by all Lenders at such time or (ii) on account of Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to such Lender under the Loan Documents at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (x) the amount of such Obligations owing to such Lender at such time to (y) the aggregate amount of the Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all Lenders under the Loan Documents at such time) of payments on account of the Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all Lenders under the Loan Documents at such time obtained by all of the Lenders at such time, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders such interests or participating interests in the Obligations due and payable or owing to them, as the case may be, as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase from each other Lender shall be rescinded and such other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (x) the purchase price paid to such Lender to (y) the aggregate purchase price paid to all Lenders) of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (x) the amount of such other Lender’s required repayment to (y) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing an interest or participating interest from another Lender pursuant to this §3.6(b) may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such interest or participating interest, as the case may be, as fully as if such Lender` were the direct creditor of Borrower in the amount of such interest or participating interest, as the case may be.

§4.CERTAIN GENERAL PROVISIONS.

§4.1Conversion Options.

(a)Borrower may elect from time to time to convert any of the Outstanding Loans of any Class to a Loan of the same Class but of another Type and such Loans shall thereafter bear interest as a Base Rate Loan, a Daily Simple SOFR Loan or a Term SOFR Loan, as applicable; provided that (i) with respect to any such conversion of a Term SOFR Loan to a Base Rate Loan or a Daily Simple SOFR Loan, Borrower shall give Agent at least one (1) Business Day’s prior written notice of such election, and such conversion shall only be made on the last day of the Interest Period with respect to such Term SOFR Loan unless Borrower pays Breakage Costs as required under this Agreement; (ii) with respect to any such conversion of a Base Rate Loan or a Daily Simple SOFR Loan to a Term SOFR Loan or any continuation of a Term SOFR Loan, Borrower shall give Agent at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice of such election and the Interest Period requested for such Loan, the Class and principal amount of the Loan so converted shall be in a minimum aggregate amount of $100,000.00 and, after giving effect to the making of such Loan, there shall be no more than seven (7) Term SOFR Loans Outstanding at any one time; (iii) no Loan may be converted into a SOFR Loan when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; ; and (iv) unless otherwise specified herein, no conversion from a Term SOFR Loan to a Base Rate Loan or a Daily Simple SOFR Loan may be made other than at the end of the applicable Interest Period. All or any part of the Outstanding Loans of any Type may be converted as provided herein, provided that no partial conversion shall result in a Base Rate Loan or a Daily Simple SOFR Loan in a principal amount of less than $100,000.00 or a Term SOFR Loan in a principal amount of less than $100,000.00. On the date on which such conversion is being made, each Lender shall take such action as is necessary to transfer its Commitment Percentage of such Loans to its Applicable Lending Office. Each Conversion/Continuation Request relating to the conversion of a Base Rate Loan to a SOFR Loan or a continuation of a SOFR Loan shall be irrevocable by Borrower.

(b)Any Term SOFR Loan of any Class may be continued as such Type upon the expiration of an Interest Period with respect thereto by compliance by Borrower with the terms of this §4.1; provided that no Term SOFR Loan may be continued as such when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, but shall be automatically converted to a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto ending during the continuance of any Default or Event of Default.

(c)In the event that Borrower does not notify Agent of its election hereunder with respect to any Term SOFR Loan, such Loan shall be automatically continued at the end of the applicable Interest Period as a Term SOFR Loan for an Interest Period of one (1) month unless such Interest Period shall be greater than the time remaining until the applicable Maturity Date, in which case such Loan shall be automatically converted to a Base Rate Loan at the end of the applicable Interest Period.

§4.2Fees. In addition to all fees specified herein, Borrower agrees to pay to KeyBank and Arrangers for their own account certain fees for services rendered or to be rendered in connection with the Loans as provided pursuant to the Agreement Regarding Fees.

§4.3[Reserved].

§4.4Funds for Payments.

(d)All payments of principal, interest, facility fees, closing fees and any other amounts due hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents shall be made to Agent, for the respective accounts of Lenders and Agent, as the case may be, at Agent’s Head Office, not later than 3:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on the day when due (or such later time as is acceptable to Agent in the event of a payment in full of all Loans and a termination of Commitments hereunder), in each case in lawful money of the United States in immediately available funds. Subject to the foregoing, all payments made to Agent on behalf of Lenders, and actually received by Agent, shall be deemed received by Lenders on the date actually received by Agent.

(e)All payments by Borrower hereunder and under any of the other Loan Documents shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, excluding any income or gross receipts Taxes, franchise or similar Taxes and any Taxes imposed by a jurisdiction (i) as a result of Agent or Lender being organized under the laws of, or having its principal office or, in the case of any Lender, its applicable lending office located in, the jurisdiction imposing such Tax (or any political subdivision thereof) or (ii) as a result of any present or former connection between Agent or a Lender and such jurisdiction other than any connection arising solely from executing, delivering, becoming a party to, performing its obligations under, receiving any payments under, engaging in any other transaction pursuant to, or enforcing any Loan Document, or selling, pledging, assigning or granting a security interest in, any Loan Document (such Taxes, other than those so excluded as specifically set forth in this sentence and elsewhere in this §4.4(b), referred to as “Non-Excluded Taxes”), unless Borrower is required by law to make such deduction or withholding. If any such obligation is imposed upon Borrower with respect to any amount payable by Borrower hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, Borrower will pay to Agent, for the account of Lenders (including the Swing Loan Lenders) or (as the case may be) Agent, on the date on which such amount is due and payable hereunder or under such other Loan Document, such additional amount in Dollars as shall be necessary to enable Lenders or Agent to receive, after such deduction or withholding has been made, the same net amount which Lenders or Agent would have received on such due date had no such obligation been imposed upon Borrower; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be required to increase any such amounts payable to any Lender with respect to any Non-Excluded Taxes (i) that are attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the requirements of §4.4(c); (ii) that are branch profits taxes

imposed by the United States or any similar taxes imposed by any other jurisdiction under the laws of which a Lender is organized or in which its applicable lending office is located; (iii) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender and notwithstanding any consent given pursuant to §18.1, that are imposed on amounts payable to such Lender pursuant to a law in effect on the date on which such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement (or designates a new lending office), except to the extent that such Lender (or its assignor, if any) was entitled, at the time of designation of a new lending office (or assignment) to receive additional amounts from Borrower with respect to such Non-Excluded Taxes pursuant to this §4.4(b); or (iv) that are U.S. federal withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA. Borrower shall indemnify each of Agent and Lenders, as applicable, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Non-Excluded Taxes (including Non-Excluded Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this §4) payable or paid by Agent or Lenders or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to Agent or Lenders and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Non-Excluded Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to Agent), or by Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Borrower will deliver promptly to Agent certificates or other valid vouchers for all Taxes or other charges deducted from or paid with respect to payments made by Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document. In the event a Lender receives a refund or credit of any Non-Excluded Taxes paid by Borrower pursuant to this section, such Lender will pay to Borrower the amount of such refund or credit (and any interest received with respect thereto) promptly upon receipt thereof; provided that if at any time thereafter such Lender is required to return such refund or credit, Borrower shall promptly repay to such Lender the amount of such refund or credit, net of any reasonable incremental additional costs.

(f)If a Lender is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document, such Lender shall deliver to Borrower, at the time or times reasonably requested by Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, if reasonably requested by Borrower such Lender shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by Borrower as will enable Borrower to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding the generality of the foregoing, each Lender that is not a United States Person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) for U.S. federal income tax purposes (a “Non-U.S. Lender”), to the extent such Lender is lawfully able to do so, shall provide Borrower on or prior to the Closing Date (in the case of each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof on the Closing Date) or on or prior to the date of the Assignment and Acceptance Agreement or Accession Agreement pursuant to which it becomes a Lender (in the case of each other Lender), and at such other times as may be necessary in the determination of Borrower, with (x) two (2) original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, W- 8ECI and/or W-8IMY (or, in each case, any successor forms), properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, and any other such duly executed form(s) or statement(s) (including whether such Lender has complied with the FATCA) which may, from time to time, be prescribed by law and, which, pursuant to applicable provisions of (i) an income tax treaty between the United States and the country of residence of such Lender, (ii) the Code, or (iii) any applicable rules or regulations in effect under (i) or (ii) above, establish that such Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to any payments to such Lender of principal, interest, fees or other amounts payable under any of the Loan Documents, or (y) if such Lender is not a “bank” or other Person described in Section 881(c)(3) of the Code, a certificate regarding non-bank status together with two (2) original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN- E (or any successor form), properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, and such other

documentation required under the Code and requested by Borrower to establish that such Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to any payments to such Lender of interest payable under any of the Loan Documents. Each Lender that is a United States Person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) for United States federal income tax purposes (a “U.S. Lender”) shall provide Borrower on or prior to the Closing Date (or, if later, on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement) two (2) original copies of Internal Revenue Service From W-9 (or any successor form), properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, certifying that such U.S. Lender is entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax, or otherwise prove that it is entitled to such an exemption. If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to Borrower at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower as may be necessary for Borrower to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment (for purposes of this sentence, “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement). Each Lender required to deliver any forms, certificates or other evidence with respect to United States federal income tax withholding matters pursuant to this section hereby agrees, from time to time after the initial delivery by such Lender of such forms, certificates or other evidence, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders such forms, certificates or other evidence obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, that such Lender shall promptly provide Borrower two (2) new original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form X-0, X-0XXX, X-0XXX-X, X-0XXX and/or W-8IMY (or, in each case, any successor form), a Certificate Regarding Non-Bank Status and two (2) original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or any successor form), or any documentation required under applicable reporting requirements of FATCA, as the case may be, properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, and such other documentation required under the Code and requested by Borrower to confirm or establish that such Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to payments to such Lender under the Loan Documents, or notify Borrower of its inability to deliver any such forms, certificates or other evidence.

(g)In the event it is reasonably necessary to determine the fair market value of the Commitments, Loans and/or other obligations under the Loan Documents for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1273-2(f), Agent shall assist Borrower as reasonably requested in connection with making such determination (including by using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain quotes and sales prices for the Commitments, Loans and/or other obligations), and Agent shall promptly make any such determination by Borrower available to Lenders in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.1273-2(f)(9).

(h) The obligations of Borrower to Lenders under this Agreement (and of the Revolving Credit Lenders to make payments to the Issuing Lenders with respect to Letters of Credit and to the Swing Loan Lenders with respect to Swing Loans) shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid and performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, under all circumstances whatsoever, including, without limitation, the following circumstances: (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, or any of the other Loan Documents; (ii) any improper use which may be made of any Letter of Credit or any improper acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee of any Letter of Credit in connection therewith; (iii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or any right which Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates may have at any time against any

beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or persons or entities for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting) or Lenders (other than the defense of payment to Lenders in accordance with the terms of this Agreement) or any other Person, whether in connection with any Letter of Credit, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any unrelated transaction; (iv) any draft, demand, certificate, statement or any other documents presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be insufficient, forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect whatsoever; (v) any breach of any agreement between Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates and any beneficiary or transferee of any Letter of Credit; (vi) any irregularity in the transaction with respect to which any Letter of Credit is issued, including any fraud by the beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit; (vii) payment by an Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a sight draft, demand, certificate or other document which does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, provided that such payment shall not have constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such Issuing Lender as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction after the exhaustion of all applicable appeal periods; (viii) any non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit of the proceeds of such Letter of Credit; (ix) the legality, validity, form, regularity or enforceability of the Letter of Credit; (x) the failure of any payment by an Issuing Lender to conform to the terms of a Letter of Credit (if, in such Issuing Lender’s good faith judgment, such payment is determined to be appropriate); (xi) the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms of any of the Loan Documents; (xii) the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default; and (xiii) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, provided that nothing contained herein shall relieve any Issuing Lender, Agent or any Lender for liability to Borrower arising as a result of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such Issuing Lender, Agent, any Lender or any Swing Loan Lender, as applicable, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction after the exhaustion of all applicable appeal periods.

§4.5Computations. All computations of interest on the Loans and of other fees to the extent applicable shall be based on a 360-day year and paid for the actual number of days elapsed. Except as otherwise provided in the definition of the term “Interest Period” with respect to Term SOFR Loans, whenever a payment hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents becomes due on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date for such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and interest shall accrue during such extension. The Outstanding Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities as reflected on the records of Agent from time to time shall be considered prima facie evidence of such amount.

§4.6Suspension of SOFR Loans. (a) If Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding on Borrower) that Daily Simple SOFR, Adjusted Term SOFR, or SOFR cannot be determined temporarily pursuant to the definition thereof on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period other than due to a Benchmark Transition Event, Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender. Upon notice thereof by Agent to Borrower and each Lender, (x) any obligation of the Lenders to make or continue SOFR Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to SOFR Loans shall be suspended to the extent of the applicable Interest Period, (y) all SOFR Loans of the affected Interest Period shall be immediately converted to Base Rate Loans (the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans shall be determined by Agent without reference to the SOFR component of Base Rate) and (z) the component of Base Rate based upon Term SOFR will not be used in any determination of Base Rate, in each case, until Agent revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of SOFR Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein. Upon any such conversion, Borrower shall also pay any additional amounts required pursuant to §4.8.

(b) If Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding on Borrower) that Daily Simple SOFR, Adjusted Term SOFR, SOFR cannot be determined permanently pursuant to the definition thereof as a result of a Benchmark Transition Event, Agent will promptly so notify Borrower and each Lender, and the provisions of §4.17 of this Agreement shall be applicable. Upon notice thereof by Agent to Borrower and the Lenders, (x) any obligation of the Lenders to make or continue SOFR Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to SOFR Loans shall be suspended, (y) all SOFR Loans shall be immediately converted to Base Rate Loans (the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans shall be determined by the Agent without reference to the SOFR component of Base Rate) and (z) the component of Base Rate based upon SOFR will not be used in any determination of Base Rate. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of SOFR Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein. Unless and until Agent and Borrower have amended this Agreement to provide for a Benchmark Replacement in accordance with §4.17 of this Agreement, all Loans shall be Base Rate Loans.

§4.7Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provisions herein, if any Change in Law shall make it unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority having or claiming jurisdiction over a Lender or its Applicable Lending Office shall assert that it is unlawful, for any Lender to make or maintain SOFR Loans, such Lender shall forthwith give notice of such circumstances to Agent and Borrower and thereupon (a) the commitment of Lenders to make SOFR Loans shall forthwith be suspended and (b) the SOFR Loans then outstanding shall be converted automatically to Base Rate Loans on the last day of each Interest Period applicable to such SOFR Loans or within such earlier period as may be required by law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, before giving such notice, the applicable Lender shall designate a different lending office if such designation will void the need for giving such notice and will not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise materially disadvantageous to such Lender or increase any costs payable by Borrower hereunder.

§4.8Additional Interest. If any Term SOFR Loan or any portion thereof is repaid or is converted to a Base Rate Loan for any reason on a date which is prior to the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Term SOFR Loan, or if repayment of the Loans has been accelerated as provided in §12.1, or if there is any termination of Commitments pursuant to §2.4 or reallocation of Commitments pursuant to §2.11, or if Borrower fails to draw down on the first day of the applicable Interest Period any amount as to which Borrower has elected a Term SOFR Loan, Borrower will pay to Agent upon demand for the account of the applicable Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages (or to the Swing Loan Lenders with respect to a Swing Loan (pro rata based upon the ratio of each Swing Loan Lender’s Swing Loan Commitment to the total Swing Loan Commitments of all of the Swing Loan Lenders)), in addition to any amounts of interest otherwise payable hereunder, the Breakage Costs. Borrower understands, agrees and acknowledges the following: (i) no Lender has any obligation to purchase, sell and/or match funds in connection with the use of SOFR as a basis for calculating the rate of interest on a SOFR Loan; (ii) SOFR is used merely as a reference in determining such rate; and (iii) Borrower has accepted SOFR as a reasonable and fair basis for calculating such rate and any Breakage Costs. Borrower further agrees to pay the Breakage Costs, if any, whether or not a Lender elects to purchase, sell and/or match funds.

§4.9Additional Costs, Etc.. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any Change in Law shall:

(i)impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender or any Issuing Lender;

(j)subject Agent, any Issuing Lender, or any Lender to any Tax (other than Taxes addressed by §4.4(b)) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(k)impose on any Lender, any Issuing Lender or Agent any other conditions, cost, expense (other than Taxes) or requirements with respect to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Loans, such Lender’s Commitment, a Letter of Credit (or participation therein) or any class of loans or commitments of which any of the Loans or such Lender’s Commitment forms a part; and the result of any of the foregoing is:

(i)to increase the cost to any Lender or any Issuing Lender of making, funding, issuing, renewing, extending or maintaining any of the Loans, the Letters of Credit or such Lender’s Commitment, or

(ii)to reduce the amount of principal, interest or other amount payable to any Lender, any Issuing Lender, or Agent hereunder on account of such Lender’s Commitment or any of the Loans or the Letters of Credit, or

(iii)to require any Lender, any Issuing Lender, or Agent to make any payment or to forego any interest or other sum payable hereunder, the amount of which payment or foregone interest or other sum is calculated by reference to the gross amount of any sum receivable or deemed received by such Lender, such Issuing Lender, or Agent from Borrower hereunder, then, and in each such case, Borrower will (and as to clauses (a) and (b) above, subject to the provisions of §4.4), within thirty (30) days of demand made by such Lender or (as the case may be) Agent at any time and from time to time and as often as the occasion therefor may arise, pay to such Lender or Agent such additional amounts as such Lender, such Issuing Lender, or Agent shall reasonably determine in good faith to be sufficient to compensate such Lender, such Issuing Lender, or Agent for such additional cost, reduction, payment or foregone interest or other sum. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this §4.9 shall not apply with respect to Taxes, which shall be governed by §4.4(b) and §4.4(c).

§4.10Capital Adequacy. If after the date hereof any Lender (or any Issuing Lender) determines that (a) as a result of a Change in Law, or (b) compliance by such Lender (or Issuing Lender) or its parent bank holding company with any directive of any such entity regarding liquidity or capital adequacy, has the effect of reducing the return on such Lender’s (or Issuing Lender’s) or such holding company’s capital as a consequence of such Lender’s commitment to make Loans or participate in Letters of Credit hereunder (or for such Issuing Lender to issue its Letters of Credit), to a level below that which such Lender (or Issuing Lender) or holding company could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s (or Issuing Lender’s) or such holding company’s then existing policies with respect to capital adequacy and assuming the full utilization of such entity’s capital) by any amount deemed by such Lender (or Issuing Lender) to be material, then such Lender (or Issuing Lender) may notify Borrower thereof. Borrower agrees to pay to such Lender (or Issuing Lender) the amount of such reduction in the return on capital as and when such reduction is reasonably determined, upon presentation by such Lender (or Issuing Lender) of a statement of the amount setting forth such Lender’s (or Issuing Lender’s) calculation thereof. In determining such amount, such Lender (or Issuing Lender) may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods generally applied by such Lender (or Issuing Lender).

§4.11Breakage Costs. Borrower shall pay all Breakage Costs required to be paid by them pursuant to this Agreement and incurred from time to time by any Lender within fifteen (15) days from receipt of written notice from Agent, or such earlier date as may be required by this Agreement.

§4.12Default Interest; Late Charge. Following the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, and regardless of whether or not Agent or Lenders shall have accelerated the maturity of the Loans, all Loans shall bear interest payable on demand at a rate per annum equal to three percent (3.0%) above the interest rate that would otherwise be in effect hereunder (the “Default Rate”), until such amount shall be paid in full (after as well as before judgment). In addition, Borrower shall pay a late charge equal to three percent (3.0%) of any amount of interest and/or principal payable on the Loans (other than amounts due on the applicable Maturity Date or as a result of acceleration), which is not paid by Borrower within ten (10) days of the date when due.

§4.13Certificate. A certificate setting forth any amounts payable pursuant to §4.8, §4.9, §4.10, §4.11 or §4.12 and a reasonably detailed explanation of such amounts which are due, submitted by any Lender or Agent to Borrower, shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. A Lender shall be entitled to reimbursement under §4.9, or §4.10 from and after notice to Borrower that such amounts are due given in accordance with §4.9 or §4.10 and for a period of nine (9) months prior to receipt of such notice.

§4.14Limitation on Interest. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to the contrary, all agreements between or among Borrower, Lenders and Agent, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether written or oral, are hereby limited so that in no contingency, whether by reason of acceleration of the maturity of any of the Obligations or otherwise, shall the interest contracted for, charged or received by Lenders exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable law. If, from any circumstance whatsoever, interest would otherwise be payable to Lenders in excess of the maximum lawful amount, the interest payable to Lenders shall be reduced to the maximum amount permitted under applicable law; and if from any circumstance Lenders shall ever receive anything of value deemed interest by applicable law in excess of the maximum lawful amount, an amount equal to any excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance of the Obligations and to the payment of interest or, if such excessive interest exceeds the unpaid balance of principal of the Obligations, such excess shall be refunded to Borrower. All interest paid or agreed to be paid to Lenders shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full period until payment in full of the principal of the Obligations (including the period of any renewal or extension thereof) so that the interest thereon for such full period shall not exceed the maximum amount permitted by applicable law. This Section shall control all agreements between or among Borrower, Lenders and Agent.

§4.15Certain Provisions Relating to Increased Costs and Non-Funding Lenders. If a Lender gives notice of the existence of the circumstances set forth in §4.7 or any Lender requests compensation for any losses or costs to be reimbursed pursuant to any one or more of the provisions of §4.4(b), §4.9 or §4.10, then, upon the request of Borrower, such Lender, as applicable, shall use reasonable efforts in a manner consistent with such institution’s practice in connection with loans like the Loan of such Lender to eliminate, mitigate or reduce amounts that would otherwise be payable by Borrower under the foregoing provisions, provided that such action would not be otherwise prejudicial to such Lender, including, without limitation, by designating another of such Lender’s offices, branches or affiliates; Borrower agreeing to pay all reasonably incurred costs and expenses incurred by such Lender in connection with any such action. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and if any Lender (a) has given notice of the existence of the circumstances set forth in §4.7 or has requested payment or compensation for any losses or costs to be reimbursed pursuant to any one or more of the provisions of §4.4(b), §4.9 or §4.10 and following the request of Borrower has been unable to take the steps described above to mitigate such amounts (each, an “Affected Lender”) or (b) has failed to make available to Agent its pro rata share of any Loan or participation in a Letter of Credit or Swing Loan and such failure has not been cured (a “Non-Funding Lender”), then, within ninety (90) days after

such notice or request for payment or compensation or failure to fund, as applicable, Borrower shall have the right as to such Affected Lender or Non-Funding Lender, as applicable, to be exercised by delivery of written notice delivered to Agent and the Affected Lender or Non- Funding Lender, within ninety (90) days of receipt of such notice or failure to fund, as applicable, to elect to cause the Affected Lender or Non-Funding Lender, as applicable, to transfer its Commitment. Agent shall promptly notify the remaining Lenders that each of such Lenders shall have the right, but not the obligation, to acquire a portion of the Commitment, pro rata based upon their relevant Commitment Percentages, of the Affected Lender or Non-Funding Lender, as applicable (or if any of such Lenders does not elect to purchase its pro rata share, then to such remaining Lenders in such proportion as approved by Agent). In the event that Lenders do not elect to acquire all of the Affected Lender’s or Non-Funding Lender’s Commitment, then Agent shall endeavor to obtain a new Lender to acquire such remaining Commitment. Upon any such purchase of the Commitment of the Affected Lender or Non-Funding Lender, as applicable, the Affected Lender’s or Non- Funding Lender’s interest in the Obligations and its rights hereunder and under the Loan Documents shall terminate at the date of purchase, and the Affected Lender or Non-Funding Lender, as applicable, shall promptly execute all documents reasonably requested to surrender and transfer such interest. If such Affected Lender or Non-Funding Lender does not execute and deliver such documents to Agent within a period of time deemed reasonable by Agent after the later of (i) the date on which the replacement Lender executes and delivers such documents and (ii) the date on which the Affected Lender or Non-Funding Lender receives all payments required to be paid to it by this §4.15, then such Affected Lender or Non-Funding Lender, as applicable, shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such documents as of such date and Borrower shall be entitled (but not obligated) to execute and deliver such documents on behalf of such Affected Lender or Non-Funding Lender, as applicable. The purchase price for the Affected Lender’s or Non-Funding Lender’s Commitment shall equal any and all amounts outstanding and owed by Borrower to the Affected Lender or Non-Funding Lender, as applicable, including principal, prepayment premium or fee, and all accrued and unpaid interest or fees.

§4.16Cash Collateral Account.

(l)Grant of Security. Borrower hereby grants to Agent, as collateral agent for the ratable benefit of the Revolving Credit Lenders, a security interest in, Borrower’s right, title and interest in and to the XX Xxxx Collateral Account and all (i) funds and financial assets from time to time credited thereto (including, without limitation, all Cash Equivalents), all interest, dividends, distributions, cash, instruments and other property from time to time received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for any or all of such funds and financial assets, and all certificates and instruments, if any, from time to time representing or evidencing the XX Xxxx Collateral Account, (ii) and all promissory notes, certificates of deposit, deposit accounts, checks and other instruments from time to time delivered to or otherwise possessed by Agent, as collateral agent for or on behalf of the Revolving Credit Lenders, in substitution for or in addition to any or all of the then existing LC Account Collateral and (iii) all interest, dividends, distributions, cash, instruments and other property from time to time received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for any or all of the then existing LC Account Collateral, in each of the cases set forth in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above, whether now owned or hereafter acquired by Borrower, wherever located, and whether now or hereafter existing or arising (all of the foregoing, collectively, the “LC Account Collateral”).

(m)Maintaining the LC Account Collateral. So long as any Loan or any other Obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall remain unpaid, any Letter of Credit shall be outstanding or any Lender shall have any Commitment:

(iv)Borrower will maintain all LC Account Collateral only with Agent, as collateral agent;

(v)Agent shall have the sole right to direct the disposition of funds with respect to the XX Xxxx Collateral Account subject to the provisions of this Agreement, and it shall be a term and condition of such XX Xxxx Collateral Account that, except as otherwise provided herein, notwithstanding any term or condition to the contrary in any other agreement relating to the XX Xxxx Collateral Account, as the case may be, that no amount (including, without limitation, interest on Cash Equivalents credited thereto) will be paid or released to or for the account of, or withdrawn by or for the account of, Borrower or any other Person from the XX Xxxx Collateral Account; provided, however, that if no Event of Default is in effect, such funds shall, at Borrower’s option, be released to pay the amounts then due to the beneficiaries of the Letters of Credit after a proper draw thereunder; and

(vi)Agent may (with the consent of the Required Lenders and shall at the request of the Required Lenders), at any time and without notice to, or consent from, Borrower or any other Loan Party, transfer, or direct the transfer of, funds from the LC Account Collateral to satisfy the Obligations under the Loan Documents if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

(n)Investing of Amounts in the XX Xxxx Collateral Account. Agent will, from time to time (i) invest (A) amounts received with respect to the XX Xxxx Collateral Account in such Cash Equivalents credited to the XX Xxxx Collateral Account as Borrower may select and Agent, as collateral agent, may approve in its reasonable discretion, and (B) interest paid on the Cash Equivalents referred to in clause (i)(A) above, and (ii) reinvest other proceeds of any such Cash Equivalents that may mature or be sold, in each case in such Cash Equivalents credited in the same manner. Interest and proceeds that are not invested or reinvested in Cash Equivalents as provided above shall be deposited and held in the XX Xxxx Collateral Account. In addition, Agent shall have the right at any time to exchange such Cash Equivalents for similar Cash Equivalents of smaller or larger determinations, or for other Cash Equivalents, credited to the XX Xxxx Collateral Account.

(o)Release of Amounts. So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result therefrom and except with respect to the amounts required to be deposited in the XX Xxxx Collateral Account pursuant to §4.16(a) above, if any, Agent will pay and release to Borrower or at Borrower’s order or, at the request of Borrower, to Agent to be applied to the Obligations under the Loan Documents such amount, if any, as is then on deposit in the XX Xxxx Collateral Account.

(p)Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, in addition to the rights and remedies available pursuant to §12 hereof and under the other Loan Documents, (i) Agent may exercise in respect of the LC Account Collateral all the rights and remedies of a secured party upon default under the Uniform Commercial Code (whether or not the Uniform Commercial Code applies to the affected LC Account Collateral), and (ii) Agent may, without notice to Borrower or any other Loan Party (except as required by law) and at any time or from time to time, charge, set-off and otherwise apply all or any part of the Obligations under the Loan Documents against any funds held with respect to the LC Account Collateral or in any other deposit account.

§4.17Permanent Inability to Determine Rate; Benchmark Replacement.

(q)Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, Agent and Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace the then-current

Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement. Any such amendment with respect to a Benchmark Transition Event will become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5th) Business Day after Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and Borrower so long as Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such amendment from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. No replacement of the then-current Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this §4.17 will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date. Unless and until a Benchmark Replacement is effective in accordance with this clause §4.17(a), all Loans shall be converted into Base Rate Loans in accordance with the provisions of §4.6 above.

(r)Conforming Changes. In connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, 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 Loan Document.

(s)Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. Agent will promptly notify Borrower and the Lenders of (i) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement and (ii) the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes. Agent will notify Borrower of the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by Agent pursuant to this §4.17, 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, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its sole discretion and without consent from any other party hereto, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this §4.17.

(t)Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if any then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including the Term SOFR Reference 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 Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the administrator of such Benchmark or the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is not or will not be representative or in compliance with or aligned with the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) Principles for Financial Benchmarks, then 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, non-representative, non-compliant or non-aligned 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 or in compliance with or aligned with the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) Principles for Financial Benchmarks for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then 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.

(u)Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, Borrower may revoke any request for the applicable SOFR Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of SOFR

Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans. 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 Base Rate based upon Adjusted Term SOFR (or then-current Benchmark) will not be used in any determination of Base Rate.

§5.UNENCUMBERED ASSETS.

§5.1Initial Unencumbered Assets. The initial Unencumbered Assets are listed on Schedule 5.1.

§5.2Addition of Unencumbered Assets. If Borrower elects, in its sole discretion, to add an additional Multifamily Property as an Unencumbered Asset, Borrower shall deliver (A) a certificate signed on behalf of Borrower by an Authorized Officer to Agent, designating such additional Multifamily Property as an Unencumbered Asset and dated as of the date of such designation, stating that on a Pro Forma Basis immediately after giving effect to such designation, the Loan Parties shall be in compliance with the covenants contained in §9, together with supporting information in form reasonably satisfactory to Agent showing the computations used in determining compliance with such covenants and (B) an updated Schedule 5.1 listing each Unencumbered Asset as of the date such Multifamily Property is added as an Unencumbered Asset hereunder; provided, however, that no Multifamily Property shall be included as an Unencumbered Asset unless such Multifamily Property satisfies all Unencumbered Asset Conditions or the Required Lenders have consented in writing to such inclusion.

§5.3Failure of Unencumbered Asset Conditions. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, to the extent any Multifamily Property previously qualifying as an Unencumbered Asset ceases to meet any of the Unencumbered Asset Conditions (except as may have otherwise been waived in writing by the Required Lenders), such Multifamily Property shall be immediately removed from the calculations contained herein relating to the Unencumbered Asset Financial Covenants and such Multifamily Property shall immediately cease to be an “Unencumbered Asset” hereunder and Borrower shall deliver (A) a certificate signed on behalf of Borrower by an Authorized Officer to Agent designating such Multifamily Property as a non-Unencumbered Asset and dated as of the date of such designation, stating that on a Pro Forma Basis immediately after giving effect to such removal, the Loan Parties shall be in compliance with the covenants contained in §9, together with supporting information in form reasonably satisfactory to Agent showing the computations used in determining compliance with such covenants and (B) an updated Schedule 5.1 listing each Unencumbered Asset as of the date such Unencumbered Asset has been removed as an Unencumbered Asset hereunder.

§5.4Borrower Election to Remove Unencumbered Assets. Borrower may voluntarily designate any Unencumbered Asset as a non-Unencumbered Asset, by delivering to Agent a certificate signed on behalf of Borrower by an Authorized Officer designating such Unencumbered Asset as a non- Unencumbered Asset (such designation to be effective upon receipt by Agent of such certificate), (i) stating that on a Pro Forma Basis immediately after giving effect to such removal, the Loan Parties shall be in compliance with the covenants contained in §9, together with supporting information in form reasonably satisfactory to Agent showing the computations used in determining compliance with such covenants and (ii) an updated Schedule 5.1 listing each Unencumbered Asset as of the date such Unencumbered Asset has been removed as an Unencumbered Asset hereunder..

§5.5Release of Subsidiary Guarantors.

(v)In the event that all Unencumbered Assets owned by a Subsidiary Guarantor shall have been removed as Unencumbered Assets in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, then, upon the request of Borrower, such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be released by Agent from liability under the Loan Documents pursuant to a Subsidiary Guarantor Release substantially in the form of Exhibit J hereto.

(w)Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, at any time that Parent Guarantor or Borrower achieves an Investment Grade Rating, no Subsidiary of Borrower shall be required to become a Subsidiary Guarantor unless (i) such Subsidiary creates, incurs, acquires, assumes, suffers to exist or otherwise is or becomes liable (whether as a borrower, co-borrower, guarantor or otherwise) with respect to any Indebtedness that is Recourse Indebtedness or Unsecured Indebtedness or (ii) Parent Guarantor or Borrower cease to have an Investment Grade Rating. Upon Parent Guarantor’s or Borrower’s achievement of an Investment Grade Rating, and provided that no Default or Event of Default exists, Agent shall promptly release any Subsidiary Guarantor from the Guaranty upon receipt by Agent of a certificate from an officer of Borrower certifying that such Subsidiary Guarantor (x) has not created, incurred, acquired, assumed, suffered to exist and is not otherwise liable (whether as a borrower, co-borrower, guarantor or otherwise) with respect to any Indebtedness that is Recourse Indebtedness or Unsecured Indebtedness (or simultaneously with the release hereunder will be released from liability with respect to such Indebtedness), (y) does not own any Unencumbered Asset included (or other asset the value of which is included) in the Total Unencumbered Asset Value or Unencumbered Asset Adjusted NOI, and (z) does not own, directly or indirectly, any Equity Interests in any such Subsidiary Guarantor (the conditions described in the foregoing clauses (x), (y) and (z) being hereinafter referred to as the “Subsidiary Guarantor Release Conditions”). In the event that at any time after the Subsidiary Guarantors have been released from the Guaranty or from their obligation to become a Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to this Section (a “Released Subsidiary”), such Released Subsidiary no longer satisfies the Subsidiary Guarantor Release Conditions, or Parent Guarantor or Borrower cease to have an Investment Grade Rating, Borrower shall within ten (10) Business Days (or such later date as agreed by Agent) after such occurrence cause such Released Subsidiary required to become a Subsidiary Guarantor under §5.6 of this Agreement to execute and deliver the documents required in said §5.6. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing provisions shall not apply to Parent Guarantor, which may only be released upon the written approval of the Agent and all of the Lenders.

§5.6Additional Subsidiary Guarantors. As a condition precedent to the addition of a Multifamily Property as an Unencumbered Asset hereunder, concurrently with the delivery of a certificate adding an Unencumbered Asset pursuant to §5.2 above directly owned or leased by a Subsidiary of Borrower that is not already a Subsidiary Guarantor, Borrower shall cause each such Subsidiary to (A) duly execute and deliver to Agent a Joinder Agreement, and such Subsidiary shall become a Subsidiary Guarantor under the Loan Documents, (B) provide all “know your customer” and other materials reasonably requested by Agent or any Lender to ensure that each such Person is in compliance with §6.1(e), (C) deliver to Agent such organizational agreements, resolutions, consents, opinions and other documents and instruments as Agent may reasonably require and (D) deliver to Agent supplements to the Schedules to this Agreement (or the factual information needed to update such Schedules) solely to the extent necessary due to any changes in factual matters specifically related to the addition of such Subsidiary or Subsidiaries as a Subsidiary Guarantor or the addition of such Unencumbered Asset (so long as such changes in factual matters shall in no event comprise a Default or an Event of Default).

§5.7Costs and Expenses of Additions and Removals. Borrower shall pay all reasonable and documented costs and expenses of Agent in connection with the addition or

removal of an Unencumbered Asset pursuant to §5.2 through §5.6, including without limitation, reasonable and documented attorney’s fees of one legal counsel to Agent.

(n)with respect to any Plan, an ERISA Reportable Event shall have occurred and such event reasonably would be likely to result in liability of any of any of Borrower or any Guarantor to pay money to the PBGC or such Plan in an aggregate amount exceeding $50,000,000.00 and one of the following shall apply with respect to such event: (x) such event in the circumstances occurring reasonably would be likely to result in the termination of such Plan by the PBGC or for the appointment by the appropriate United States District Court of a trustee to administer such Plan; or (y) a trustee shall have been appointed by the United States District Court to administer such Plan; or (z) the PBGC shall have instituted proceedings to terminate such Plan;

106

(o)the occurrence of any Change of Control; or

(p)an Event of Default under any of the other Loan Documents shall occur (subject, in any case, to any applicable cure provision set forth in §12.1(e);

then, and upon any such Event of Default, Agent may, and upon the request of the Required Lenders shall, by notice in writing to Borrower declare all amounts owing with respect to this Agreement, the Notes, and the other Loan Documents to be, and they shall thereupon forthwith become, immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Loan Parties; provided that in the event of any Event of Default specified in §12.1(h), §12.1(i) or §12.1(j), all such amounts shall become immediately due and payable automatically and without any requirement of presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind from any Lender or Agent.

§12.2Certain Cure Periods. In the event that there shall occur any Default or Event of Default that relates only to certain Unencumbered Asset(s) or the owner(s) thereof (if such owner is a Subsidiary Guarantor), then Borrower may elect to cure such Default or Event of Default (so long as no other Default or Event of Default would arise as a result of such Default or Event of Default) by electing to remove such Unencumbered Asset(s) and the applicable Subsidiary Guarantor(s) pursuant to §5.4 and remove such Unencumbered Asset(s) from the calculation of the covenants in §9 (and the Loan Parties’ compliance with §3.2 as a result thereof), in which event such removal and reduction shall be completed within thirty (30) days after receipt of notice of such Default or Event of Default from Agent or the Required Lenders.

§12.3Termination of Commitments and Actions in Respect of Letters of Credit.

(q)If any one or more Events of Default specified in §12.1(h), §12.1(i) or §12.1(j) shall occur, then immediately and without any action on the part of Agent or any Lender the Commitments shall terminate and Lenders shall be relieved of all obligations to make Loans or issue Letters of Credit for the account of Borrower. If any other Event of Default shall have occurred, Agent may, and upon the election of the Required Lenders shall, by notice to Borrower terminate the obligation to make Loans to and issue Letters of Credit for the account of Borrower. No termination under this §12.3 shall relieve any Loan Party of its respective obligations to Lenders arising under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

(r)If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Agent may, or shall at the request of the Required Lenders, irrespective of whether it is taking any of the actions described in §12.4 or §4.16(e) or otherwise, make demand upon Borrower to, and forthwith upon such demand Borrower will, pay to Agent on behalf of Lenders in same day funds at Agent’s office designated in such demand, for deposit in the XX Xxxx Collateral Account, an amount equal to the LC Exposure at such time. If at any time Agent or an Issuing Lender determines that any funds held in the XX Xxxx Collateral Account are subject to any right or claim of any Person other than Agent and Lenders with respect to the Obligations of the Loan Parties under the Loan Documents, or that the total amount of such funds is less than the LC Exposure, Borrower will, forthwith upon demand by Agent, pay to Agent, as additional funds to be deposited and held in the XX Xxxx Collateral Account, an amount equal to the excess of (a) the LC Exposure over (b) the total amount of funds, if any, then held in the XX Xxxx Collateral Account that Agent determines to be free and clear of any such right and claim. Upon the drawing of any Letter of Credit for which funds are on deposit in the XX Xxxx Collateral Account, such funds shall be applied to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender or Lenders, as applicable, to the extent permitted by applicable law.

§12.4Remedies. In case any one or more Events of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and whether or not Lenders shall have accelerated the maturity of the Loans pursuant

107

to §12.1, Agent on behalf of Lenders may, and upon the direction of the Required Lenders shall, proceed to protect and enforce their rights and remedies under this Agreement, the Notes and/or any of the other Loan Documents by suit in equity, action at law or other appropriate proceeding, including to the full extent permitted by applicable law the specific performance of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the obtaining of the ex parte appointment of a receiver, and, if any amount shall have become due, by declaration or otherwise, the enforcement of the payment thereof. No remedy herein conferred upon Agent or the holder of any Note is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy and each and every remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute or any other provision of law. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement providing that the Loans may be evidenced by multiple Notes in favor of Lenders, Lenders acknowledge and agree that only Agent may exercise any remedies arising by reason of a Default or Event of Default. If any Loan Party fails to perform any agreement or covenant contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents beyond any applicable period for notice and cure, Agent may itself perform, or cause to be performed, any agreement or covenant of such Person contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents which such Person shall fail to perform, and the out-of-pocket costs of such performance, together with any reasonable expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees actually incurred (including attorneys’ fees incurred in any appeal) by Agent in connection therewith, shall be payable by Borrower upon demand and shall constitute a part of the Obligations and shall if not paid within five (5) Business Days after demand bear interest at the rate for overdue amounts as set forth in this Agreement. In the event that all or any portion of the Obligations is collected by or through an attorney-at-law, Borrower shall pay all costs of collection including, but not limited to, reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees.

§12.5Distribution of Loan Proceeds. In the event that, following the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, any monies are received in connection with the enforcement of any of the Loan Documents, such monies shall be distributed for application as follows:

(s)First, to the payment of, or (as the case may be) the reimbursement of Agent for or in respect of, all reasonable out-of-pocket costs, expenses, disbursements and losses which shall have been paid, incurred or sustained by Agent in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents or in connection with the collection of such monies by Agent, for the exercise, protection or enforcement by Agent of all or any of the rights, remedies, powers and privileges of Agent or Lenders under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or in support of any provision of adequate indemnity to Agent against any taxes or liens which by law shall have, or may have, priority over the rights of Agent or Lenders to such monies;

(t)Second, to all other Obligations (including any Letter of Credit Liabilities, interest, expenses or other obligations incurred after the commencement of a bankruptcy and to deposit into the XX Xxxx Collateral Account any contingent reimbursement obligations in respect of outstanding Letters of Credit to the extent required by §12.3, but excluding Hedge Obligations) in such order or preference as the Required Lenders shall determine; provided, that (i) Swing Loans shall be repaid first, (ii) distributions in respect of such other Obligations shall include, on a pari passu basis, any Agent’s fee payable pursuant to §4.2; (iii) in the event that any Lender shall have wrongfully failed or refused to make an advance under §2.5(d), §2.7, or §2.10(f) and such failure or refusal shall be continuing, advances made by other Lenders during the pendency of such failure or refusal shall be entitled to be repaid as to principal and accrued interest in priority to the other Obligations described in this subsection (b); and (iv) Obligations owing to Lenders with respect to each type of Obligation such as interest, principal, fees and expenses shall be made among Lenders, pro rata; and provided, further that the Required Lenders may in their discretion make proper allowance to take into account any Obligations not then due and payable;

108

(u)Third, to all Hedge Obligations, on a pari passu basis among Lender Hedge Providers pro rata; and

(v)Fourth, the excess, if any, shall be returned to Borrower or to such other Persons as are legally entitled thereto.

§13.SETOFF.

During the continuance of any Event of Default, any deposits (general or specific, time or demand, provisional or final, regardless of currency, maturity, or the branch where such deposits are held) or other sums credited by or due from any Lender or any Affiliate thereof to Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor and any securities or other property of Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor in the possession of such Lender or any Affiliate may, without notice to any Borrower (any such notice being expressly waived by Borrower and the Subsidiary Guarantors) but with the prior written approval of Agent, be applied to or set off against the payment of Obligations and any and all other liabilities, direct, or indirect, absolute or contingent, due or to become due, now existing or hereafter arising, of Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor to such Lender. Each Lender agrees with each other Lender that if such Lender shall receive from Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor, whether by voluntary payment, exercise of the right of setoff, or otherwise, and shall retain and apply to the payment of the Note or Notes held by such Lender (but excluding the Swing Loan Note) any amount in excess of its ratable portion of the payments received by all Lenders with respect to the Notes held by all Lenders, such Lender will make such disposition and arrangements with the other Lenders with respect to such excess, either by way of distribution, pro tanto assignment of claims, subrogation or otherwise as shall result in each Lender receiving in respect of the Notes held by it its proportionate payment as contemplated by this Agreement; provided that if all or any part of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such Lender, such disposition and arrangements shall be rescinded and the amount restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

§14.AGENT.

§14.1Authorization. Agent is authorized to take such action on behalf of each Lender and to exercise all such powers as are hereunder and under any of the other Loan Documents and any related documents delegated to Agent and all other powers not specifically reserved to Lenders, together with such powers as are reasonably incident thereto, provided that no duties or responsibilities not expressly assumed herein or therein shall be implied to have been assumed by Agent. The obligations of Agent hereunder are primarily administrative in nature, and nothing contained in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents shall be construed to constitute Agent as a trustee for any Lender or to create an agency or fiduciary relationship. Agent shall act as the contractual representative of Lenders hereunder, and notwithstanding the use of the term “Agent”, it is understood and agreed that Agent shall not have any fiduciary duties or responsibilities to any Lender by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document and is acting as an independent contractor, the duties and responsibilities of which are limited to those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Borrower and any other Person shall be entitled to conclusively rely on a statement from Agent that it has the authority to act for and bind Lenders pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

§14.2Employees and Agents. Agent may exercise its powers and execute its duties by or through employees or agents and shall be entitled to take, and to rely on, advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to its rights and duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Agent may utilize the services of such Persons as Agent may reasonably determine, and all reasonable and documented fees and expenses of any such Persons shall be paid by Borrower.

109

§14.3No Liability. Neither Agent nor any of its shareholders, directors, officers or employees nor any other Person assisting them in their duties nor any agent, or employee thereof, shall be liable to Lenders for (a) any waiver, consent or approval given or any action taken, or omitted to be taken, in good faith by it or them hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, or in connection herewith or therewith, or be responsible for the consequences of any oversight or error of judgment whatsoever, except that Agent or such other Person, as the case may be, shall be liable for losses due to its willful misconduct or gross negligence as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction after the expiration of all applicable appeal periods or (b) any action taken or not taken by Agent with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders or the Required Class Lenders or such greater number of Lenders as may be required hereunder. Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to Agent for the account of Lenders, unless Agent has received notice from a Lender or Borrower referring to the Loan Documents and describing with reasonable specificity such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”.

§14.4No Representations. Agent shall not be responsible for the execution or validity or enforceability of this Agreement, the Notes, any of the other Loan Documents or any instrument at any time constituting, or intended to constitute, collateral security for the Notes, or for the value of any such collateral security or for the validity, enforceability or collectability of any such amounts owing with respect to the Notes, or for any recitals or statements, warranties or representations made herein, or any agreement, instrument or certificate delivered in connection therewith or in any of the other Loan Documents or in any certificate or instrument hereafter furnished to it by or on behalf of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or be bound to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, covenants or agreements herein or in any of the other Loan Documents. Agent shall not be bound to ascertain whether any notice, consent, waiver or request delivered to it by any Loan Party or any holder of any of the Notes shall have been duly authorized or is true, accurate and complete. Agent has not made nor does it now make any representations or warranties, express or implied, nor does it assume any liability to Lenders, with respect to the creditworthiness or financial condition of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or the value of any assets of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other Lender, and based upon such information and documents as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other Lender, based upon such information and documents as it deems appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Agent’s Special Counsel has only represented Agent and Arrangers in connection with the Loan Documents and the only attorney client relationship or duty of care is between Agent’s Special Counsel and Agent or Arrangers. Each Lender has been independently represented by separate counsel on all matters regarding the Loan Documents.

§14.5Payments.

(w)A payment by Borrower to Agent hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents for the account of any Lender shall constitute a payment to such Lender. Agent agrees to distribute to each Lender not later than one Business Day after Agent’s receipt of good funds, determined in accordance with Agent’s customary practices, such Lender’s pro rata share of payments received by Agent for the account of Lenders except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in any of the other Loan Documents. In the event that Agent fails to distribute such amounts within one Business Day as provided above, Agent shall pay interest on such amount at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate from time to time in effect.

110

(x)If in the reasonable opinion of Agent the distribution of any amount received by it in such capacity hereunder, under the Notes or under any of the other Loan Documents might involve it in liability, it may refrain from making such distribution until its right to make such distribution shall have been adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction. If a court of competent jurisdiction shall adjudge that any amount received and distributed by Agent is to be repaid, each Person to whom any such distribution shall have been made shall either repay to Agent its proportionate share of the amount so adjudged to be repaid or shall pay over the same in such manner and to such Persons as shall be determined by such court.

§14.6Holders of Notes. Subject to the terms of §18, Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the absolute owner or purchaser thereof for all purposes hereof until it shall have been furnished in writing with a different name by such payee or by a subsequent holder, assignee or transferee.

§14.7Indemnity. Lenders ratably agree hereby to indemnify and hold harmless Agent from and against any and all claims, actions and suits (whether groundless or otherwise), losses, damages, costs, expenses (including any expenses for which Agent has not been reimbursed by Borrower as required by §15), and liabilities of every nature and character arising out of or related to this Agreement, the Notes, or any of the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated or evidenced hereby or thereby, or Agent’s actions taken hereunder or thereunder, except to the extent that any of the same shall be directly caused by Agent’s willful misconduct or gross negligence as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction after the expiration of all applicable appeal periods. The agreements in this §14.7 shall survive the payment of all amounts payable under the Loan Documents.

§14.8Agent as Lender. In its individual capacity, KeyBank shall have the same obligations and the same rights, powers and privileges in respect to its Commitment and the Loans made by it, and as the holder of any of the Notes as it would have were it not also Agent.

§14.9Resignation. Agent may resign at any time by giving thirty (30) calendar days’ prior written notice thereof to Lenders and Borrower. The Required Lenders may remove Agent from its capacity as Agent in the event of Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct or, to the extent permitted by Legal Requirements, if the Person serving as Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof. Any such resignation or removal may at Agent’s option also constitute Agent’s resignation as an Issuing Lender and a Swing Loan Lender. Upon any such resignation, or removal, the Required Lenders, subject to the terms of §18.1, shall have the right to appoint as a successor Agent and, if applicable, Issuing Lender and Swing Loan Lender, (i) any Lender or (ii) any bank whose senior debt obligations are rated not less than “A” or its equivalent by Moody’s or not less than “A” or its equivalent by S&P and which has a net worth of not less than $500,000,000.00; provided that in no event shall any such successor Agent be a Defaulting Lender. Unless a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, such successor Agent and, if applicable, each Issuing Lender and each Swing Loan Lender, shall be reasonably acceptable to Borrower. If no successor Agent shall have been appointed and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Agent’s giving of notice of resignation or the Required Lender’s removal of Agent, then the retiring or removed Agent may, on behalf of Lenders, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be (ii) any Lender or (ii) any financial institution whose senior debt obligations are rated not less than “A2” or its equivalent by Moody’s or not less than “A” or its equivalent by S&P and which has a net worth of not less than $500,000,000.00. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent and, if applicable, as an Issuing Lender and/or as a Swing Loan Lender, hereunder by a successor Agent and, if applicable, Issuing Lender and/or Swing Loan Lender, such successor Agent and, if applicable, Issuing Lender and/or Swing Loan Lender, shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Agent and, if applicable, Issuing Lender and/or Swing Loan Lender, and the

retiring or removed Agent and, if applicable, Issuing Lender and/or Swing Loan Lender, shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder as Agent and, if applicable, Issuing Lender and/or Swing Loan Lender. After any retiring Agent’s resignation or removal, the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Agent, Issuing Lender and Swing Loan Lender. If the resigning or removed Agent shall also resign as an Issuing Lender, such successor Agent shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, issued by such resigning or removed Agent outstanding at the time of such succession or shall make other arrangements satisfactory to the current Issuing Lender, in either case, to assume effectively the obligations of the current Agent with respect to such Letters of Credit. Upon any change in Agent under this Agreement, the resigning or removed Agent shall execute such assignments of and amendments to the Loan Documents as may be necessary to substitute the successor Agent for the resigning or removed Agent.

§14.10Duties in the Case of Enforcement. In case one or more Events of Default have occurred and shall be continuing, and whether or not acceleration of the Obligations shall have occurred, Agent may and, if (a) so requested by the Required Lenders and (b) Lenders have provided to Agent such additional indemnities and assurances in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages against expenses and liabilities as Agent may reasonably request, shall proceed to exercise all or any legal and equitable and other rights or remedies as it may have; provided, however, that unless and until Agent shall have received such directions, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem to be in the best interests of Lenders. Each Lender shall, within thirty (30) days of request therefor, pay to Agent its Commitment Percentage of the reasonable costs incurred by Agent in taking any such actions hereunder to the extent that such costs shall not be promptly reimbursed to Agent by Borrower within such period. The Required Lenders may direct Agent in writing as to the method and the extent of any such exercise, Lenders hereby agreeing to indemnify and hold Agent harmless in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages from all liabilities incurred in respect of all actions taken or omitted in accordance with such directions, except to the extent that any of the same shall be directly caused by Agent’s willful misconduct or gross negligence as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction after the expiration of all applicable appeal periods, provided that Agent need not comply with any such direction to the extent that Agent reasonably believes Agent’s compliance with such direction to be unlawful in any applicable jurisdiction.

§14.11Bankruptcy. In the event a bankruptcy or other insolvency proceeding is commenced by or against any Loan Party with respect to the Obligations, Agent shall have the sole and exclusive right to file and pursue a joint proof claim on behalf of all Lenders. Any votes with respect to such claims or otherwise with respect to such proceedings shall be subject to the vote of the Required Lenders or all Lenders as required by this Agreement. Each Lender irrevocably waives its right to file or pursue a separate proof of claim in any such proceedings unless Agent fails to file such claim within thirty (30) days after receipt of written notice from Lenders requesting that Agent file such proof of claim.

§14.12[Reserved].

§14.13Reliance by Agent. Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by an Authorized Officer. Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder

112

to the making of a Loan, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan. Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for any Loan Party), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

§14.14Approvals. If consent is required for some action under this Agreement, or except as otherwise provided herein an approval of Lenders or the Required Lenders or the Required Class Lenders of any Class is required or permitted under this Agreement, each Lender agrees to give Agent, within ten (10) days of receipt of the request for action together with all reasonably requested information related thereto (or such lesser period of time required by the terms of the Loan Documents), notice in writing of approval or disapproval (collectively “Directions”) in respect of any action requested or proposed in writing pursuant to the terms hereof. To the extent that any Lender does not approve any recommendation of Agent, such Lender shall in such notice to Agent describe the actions that would be acceptable to such Lender. If consent is required for the requested action, any Lender’s failure to respond to a request for Directions within the required time period shall be deemed to constitute a Direction to take such requested action. In the event that any recommendation is not approved by the requisite number of Lenders and a subsequent approval on the same subject matter is requested by Agent, then for the purposes of this paragraph each Lender shall be required to respond to a request for Directions within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such request. Agent and each Lender shall be entitled to assume that any officer of the other Lenders delivering any notice, consent, certificate or other writing is authorized to give such notice, consent, certificate or other writing unless Agent and such other Lenders have otherwise been notified in writing.

§14.15Loan Parties Not Beneficiaries. Except for the provisions of §14.9 relating to the appointment of a successor Agent, the provisions of this §14 are solely for the benefit of Agent and Lenders, may not be enforced by any Loan Party, and except for the provisions of §14.9, may be modified or waived without the approval or consent of any Loan Party.

§14.16Defaulting Lenders.

(y)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements:

(i)That Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in §28.

(ii)Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to Agent by that Defaulting Lender pursuant to §13), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Lenders or Swing Loan Lenders hereunder; third, if so determined by Agent or requested by any Issuing Lender or any Swing Loan Lender, to be held as cash collateral for future funding obligations of that Defaulting Lender of any participation in any Swing Loan or Letter of Credit; fourth, as Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by Agent; fifth, if so determined by Agent and Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this

113

Agreement; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to Lenders, the Issuing Lenders or Swing Loan Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, any Issuing Lender or any Swing Loan Lender against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists or non-defaulting Lenders have been paid in full all amounts then due, to the payment of any amounts owing to Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of 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 eighth, to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or Letter of Credit Liabilities in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Loans or Letter of Credit Liabilities were made at a time when the conditions set forth in §11 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and Letter of Credit Liabilities owed to, all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or Letter of Credit Liabilities owed to, that Defaulting Lender. 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 or to post cash collateral pursuant to this §14.16(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii)That Defaulting Lender which is a Revolving Credit Lender (x) shall not be entitled to receive any Unused Fee or Facility Fee pursuant to §2.3 for any period during which that Revolving Credit Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender) and (y) shall be limited in its right to receive Letter of Credit fees as provided in §2.10(e).

(iv)During any period in which there is Revolving Credit Lender which is a Defaulting Lender, for purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each non-Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit or Swing Loans pursuant to §2.5 and/or §2.10, the “Commitment Percentage” of each non-Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender shall be computed without giving effect to the Revolving Credit Commitment of that Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender; provided, that, (i) each such reallocation shall be given effect only if, at the date the applicable Revolving Credit Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, no Default or Event of Default exists; and (ii) the aggregate obligation of each non-Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (1) the Revolving Credit Commitment of that non-Defaulting Revolving Credit Lender minus (2) the aggregate Outstanding amount of the Revolving Credit Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities held by that Revolving Credit Lender.

(v)During any period that a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, Borrower may, by giving written notice thereof to Agent, such Defaulting Lender, and the other Lenders, demand that such Defaulting Lender assign its Commitment to an Eligible Assignee subject to and in accordance with the provisions of §18.1. Subject to Section 4.15 herein, no party hereto shall have any obligation whatsoever to initiate any such replacement or to assist in finding an Eligible Assignee. In addition, any Lender who is not a Defaulting Lender may, but shall not be obligated, in its sole discretion, to acquire the face amount of all or a portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment via an assignment subject to and in accordance with the provisions of §18.1. No such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient with any applicable amounts held pursuant to the immediately preceding subsection (ii), upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other

114

compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of Borrower and Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to Agent, the Issuing Lenders or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) such Defaulting Lender’s full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under any Legal Requirement without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

(z)Defaulting Lender Cure. If Borrower, Agent, Swing Loan Lenders and the Issuing Lenders agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, 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 (which may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by Lenders in accordance with their Commitment Percentages (without giving effect to §14.16(a)(iv)), whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

§14.17Reliance on Hedge Provider. For purposes of applying payments received in accordance with §12.5, Agent shall be entitled to rely upon the trustee, paying agent or other similar representative (each, a “Representative”) or, in the absence of such a Representative, upon the holder of the Hedge Obligations for a determination (which each holder of the Hedge Obligations agrees (or shall agree) to provide upon request of Agent) of the outstanding Hedge Obligations owed to the holder thereof. Unless it has actual knowledge (including by way of written notice from such holder) to the contrary, Agent, in acting hereunder, shall be entitled to assume that no Hedge Obligations are outstanding.

§14.18Certain ERISA Matters. (a) Each Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of Agent and each Titled Agent and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of Borrower or any other Loan Party, that at least one of the following is and will be true:

(i)such Lender is not using “plan assets” (within the meaning of Section 3(42) of ERISA or otherwise) of one or more Benefit Plans with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments or this Agreement,

(ii)the transaction exemption set forth in one or more PTEs, such as PTE 84-14 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by independent qualified professional asset managers), PTE 95-60 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company general accounts), PTE 90- 1 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company pooled separate accounts), PTE 91- 38 (a class exemption for certain transactions

115

involving bank collective investment funds) or PTE 96-23 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by in-house asset managers), is applicable with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Obligations of such Lender in respect of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, or

(iii)(A) such Lender is an investment fund managed by a “Qualified Professional Asset Manager” (within the meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14), (B) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the investment decision on behalf of such Lender to enter into, participate in, administer and perform the Obligations of such Lender in respect of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, (C) the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Obligations of such Lender in respect of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement satisfies the requirements of sub-sections (b) through (g) of Part I of PTE 84-14 and (D) to the best knowledge of such Lender, the requirements of subsection (a) of Part I of PTE 84-14 are satisfied with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the obligations of such Lender in respect of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement.

(a)In addition, unless sub-clause (i) in the immediately preceding clause (a) is true with respect to a Lender, such Lender further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of Agent and each Titled Agent and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of Borrower or any other Loan Party, that none of the Agent, the Titled Agents or their respective Affiliates, is a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender involved in such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the Agent or any Titled Agent under this Agreement, any Loan Document or any documents related to hereto or thereto).

§14.19Recovery of Erroneous Payments.

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

116

(ab)Without limiting immediately preceding clause (a), each Lender and each Issuing Lender hereby further agrees that if it receives an Erroneous Payment from the Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment sent by the Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such Erroneous Payment (an “Erroneous Payment Notice”), (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by an Erroneous Payment Notice, or (z) that such Lender or Issuing Lender otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part), in each case, an error has been made (and that it is deemed to have knowledge of such error at the time of receipt of such Erroneous Payment) with respect to such Erroneous Payment, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender or Issuing Lender shall not assert any right or claim to the Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payments received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine. Each Lender and each Issuing Lender agrees that, in each such case, it shall promptly (and, in all events, within one Business Day of its knowledge (or deemed knowledge) of such error) notify the Agent of such occurrence and, upon demand from the Agent, it shall promptly, but in all events no later than two Business Days thereafter, return to the Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender or Issuing Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Agent in same day funds at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect.

(ac)Borrower and each other Loan Party hereby agrees that (x) in the event an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Lender or Issuing Lender that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights of such Lender or Issuing Lender with respect to such amount and (y) an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by Borrower or any other Loan Party.

If, and to the extent

118

that the obligations of Borrower under this §16 are unenforceable for any reason, Borrower hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment in satisfaction of such obligations which is permissible under applicable law. The provisions of this §16 shall survive the repayment of the Loans and the termination of the obligations of Lenders hereunder. This §16 shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

§17.SURVIVAL OF COVENANTS, ETC.

The indemnification obligations of the Loan Parties provided herein and in the other Loan Documents shall survive the full repayment of amounts due and the termination of the obligations of Lenders hereunder and thereunder to the extent provided herein.

§18.ASSIGNMENT AND PARTICIPATION.

§18.1Conditions to Assignment by Lenders. Except as provided herein, each Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignee all or a portion of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment Percentage, Commitment and, in the case of an Issuing Lender, its Letter of Credit Commitment, and the same portion of the Loans at the time owing to it and the Notes held by it); provided that (a) Agent and each Issuing Lender shall have each given its prior written consent to such assignment, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (provided that such consent shall not be required for any assignment to another Lender, to an Approved Fund, to an Affiliate of a Lender which controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the assigning Lender or to a wholly-owned Subsidiary of such Lender) (b) each such assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Revolving Credit Commitment (and the Letter of Credit Commitment, in the case of an Issuing Lender) in the event an interest in the Revolving Credit Loans is assigned; (c) the parties to such assignment shall execute and deliver to Agent, for recording in the Register (as hereinafter defined) an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement in the form of Exhibit H hereto (each, an “Assignment and Acceptance Agreement”), together with any Notes subject to such assignment, (d) in no event shall any assignment be to any Person controlling, controlled by or under common control with, or which is not otherwise free from influence or control by, Borrower or any Guarantor, (e) such assignee shall acquire an interest in the Loans of not less than $5,000,000.00 and integral multiples of $1,000,000.00 in excess thereof (or if less, the remaining Loans of the assignor), unless waived by Agent, and so long as no Event of Default exists hereunder, Borrower and (f) in no event shall any assignment be to any Defaulting Lender or any of its subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute a Defaulting Lender. Upon execution, delivery, acceptance and recording of such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, (i) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and all other Loan Documents executed by Lenders and, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender

119

(and, if applicable, an Issuing Lender) hereunder, (ii) the assigning Lender shall, upon payment to Agent of the registration fee referred to in §18.2, be released from its obligations under this Agreement arising after the effective date of such assignment with respect to the assigned portion of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement, and (iii) Agent may unilaterally amend Schedule 1.1-A hereto to reflect such assignment. In connection with each assignment, the assignee shall represent and warrant to Agent, the assignor and each other Lender as to whether such assignee is controlling, controlled by, under common control with or is not otherwise free from influence or control by, Borrower and Guarantors.

§18.2Register. Agent shall maintain on behalf of Borrower a copy of each assignment delivered to it and a register or similar list (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of Lenders and the Commitment Percentages of and principal amount of and interest on the Loans owing to Lenders from time to time. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and Borrower, Agent and Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower and Lenders at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Upon each such recordation, the assigning Lender agrees to pay to Agent a registration fee in the sum of $3,500.00.

§18.3New Notes. Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement executed by the parties to such assignment, together with each Note subject to such assignment, Agent shall record the information contained therein in the Register.

Such new Notes shall provide that they are replacements for the surrendered Notes, shall be in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the surrendered Notes, shall be dated the effective date of such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of the assigned Notes. The surrendered Notes shall be canceled and returned to Borrower.

Each Lender may sell participations to one or more Lenders or other entities in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided that (a) any such sale or participation shall not affect the rights and duties of the selling Lender hereunder, (b) such participation shall not entitle such participant to any rights or privileges under this Agreement or any Loan Documents, including without limitation, rights granted to Lenders under §4.8, §4.9 and §4.10, (c) such participation shall not entitle the participant to the right to approve waivers, amendments or modifications, (d) such participant shall have no direct rights against Borrower, (e) such participant shall be entitled to the benefits of §4.4(b) (subject to the requirements of §4.4(c); it being understood that the documentation required under §4.4(c) shall be delivered to the participating Lender) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to §18.1, provided that such participant (i) agrees to be subject to the provisions of §4.15 as if it were an assignee under §18.1; and (ii) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under §4.4(b) than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such participant, (f) such sale is effected in accordance with all applicable laws, and (g) such participant shall not be a Person controlling, controlled by or under common control with, or which is not otherwise free from influence or control by Borrower or any other Loan Party; provided, however, such Lender may agree with the participant that it will not, without the consent of the participant, agree to (i) increase, or extend the term or extend the time or waive any requirement for the reduction or termination of, such Lender’s Commitment, (ii) extend the

120

date fixed for the payment of principal of or interest on the Loans or portions thereof owing to such Lender (other than pursuant to an extension of the Revolving Credit Maturity Date pursuant to §2.12), (iii) reduce the amount of any such payment of principal, (iv) reduce the rate at which interest is payable thereon or (v) release Borrower or any other Loan Party (except as otherwise permitted under §5.5). Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of 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 Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that, except as set forth below, 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 any Loan 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) of the United States Treasury Regulations or except, upon request of Borrower, Lender shall provide to Borrower the identity of such participant and the amount of its participation. 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. For the avoidance of doubt, Agent (in its capacity as Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

§18.5Pledge by Lender. Any Lender may at any time pledge all or any portion of its interest and rights under this Agreement (including all or any portion of its Note) to any of the twelve Federal Reserve Banks organized under §4 of the Federal Reserve Act, 12 U.S.C. §341 or any other central banking authority or to such other Person as Agent may approve to secure obligations of such lenders. No such pledge or the enforcement thereof shall release the pledgor Lender from its obligations hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents.

§18.6No Assignment by Loan Parties. The Loan Parties shall not assign or transfer any of their rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of each Lender.

§18.7Disclosure. Borrower agrees to promptly and reasonably cooperate with any Lender in connection with any proposed assignment or participation of all or any portion of its Commitment. Borrower agrees that in addition to disclosures made in accordance with standard banking practices any Lender may disclose information obtained by such Lender pursuant to this Agreement to assignees or participants and potential assignees or participants hereunder. Each Lender agrees for itself that it shall use reasonable efforts in accordance with its customary procedures to hold confidential all non-public information obtained from any Loan Party that has been identified in writing as confidential by any of them, and shall use reasonable efforts in accordance with its customary procedures to not disclose such information to any other Person, it being understood and agreed that, notwithstanding the foregoing, a Lender may make (a) disclosures to its participants (provided such Persons are advised of the provisions of this §18.7), (b) disclosures to its directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, accountants, appraisers, auditors, legal counsel, consultants, service providers and other professional advisors of such Lender (provided that such Persons who are not employees of such Lender are advised of the provision of this §18.7), (c) disclosures customarily provided or reasonably required by any potential or actual bona fide assignee, transferee or participant or their respective directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, accountants, appraisers, legal counsel and other professional advisors in connection with a potential or actual assignment or transfer by such Lender of any Loans or any participations therein (provided such Persons are advised of the provisions of this §18.7), (d) disclosures to bank regulatory authorities or self-regulatory bodies with jurisdiction over such Lender, (e) disclosures required or requested by any other governmental authority or representative thereof or pursuant to legal process, or (f) disclosure of the existence of this

121

Agreement and information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry and service providers to Agent and Lenders in connection with the administration of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Commitments; provided that, unless specifically prohibited by applicable law or court order, each Lender shall notify Borrower of any request by any governmental authority or representative thereof prior to disclosure (other than any such request in connection with any examination of such Lender by such government authority) for disclosure of any such non-public information prior to disclosure of such information. In addition, each Lender may make disclosure of such information to any contractual counterparty in swap agreements or such contractual counterparty’s professional advisors (so long as such contractual counterparty or professional advisors agree to be bound by the provisions of this §18.7). Non-public information shall not include any information which is or subsequently becomes publicly available other than as a result of a disclosure of such information by a Lender, or prior to the delivery to such Lender is within the possession of such Lender if such information is not known by such Lender to be subject to another confidentiality agreement with or other obligations of secrecy to Borrower, or is disclosed with the prior approval of Borrower. Nothing herein shall prohibit the disclosure of non-public information to the extent necessary to enforce the Loan Documents.

Rejection or other refusal to accept or the inability to deliver because of changed address for which no notice was given shall be deemed to be receipt of the Notice sent. By giving at least fifteen (15) days’ prior Notice thereof, Borrower, a Lender or Agent shall have the right from time to time and at any time during the term of this Agreement to change their respective addresses and each shall have the right to specify as its address any other address within the United States of America.

§28.CONSENTS, AMENDMENTS, WAIVERS, ETC..

Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, any consent or approval required or permitted by this Agreement may be given, and any term of this Agreement or of any other instrument related hereto or mentioned herein may be amended, and the performance or observance by any Loan Party of any terms of this Agreement or such other instrument or the continuance of any Default or Event of Default may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) with, but only with, the written consent of the Required Lenders and, with respect to any amendment of any term of this Agreement or of any other instrument related hereto or mentioned herein, Borrower or the Guarantors, as the case may be. Subject to the immediately following sentence, any term of this Agreement or of any other Loan Document relating to the rights or obligations of the Lenders of a particular Class, and not Lenders of any other Class, may be amended, and the performance or observance by Borrower or any other Loan Party or Subsidiary of any such terms may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) with, and only with, the written consent of the Required Class Lenders for such Class of Lenders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the following may occur without the written consent of each Lender adversely affected thereby: (a) a reduction in the rate of interest on the Notes (other than a reduction or waiver of default interest); (b) any increase or reduction in the amount of the Commitment of a Lender (except as provided in §2.4, §2.11 and §18.1); (c) a forgiveness, reduction or waiver of the principal of any unpaid Loan or any interest thereon or fee payable under the Loan Documents; (d) a change in the amount of any fee payable to a Lender hereunder; (e) the postponement of any date fixed for any payment of principal of or interest on the Loan or any fees payable under the Loan Documents (except as provided in §2.12 with respect to extension of the Revolving Credit Maturity Date); (f) an extension of the Maturity Date (except as provided in §2.12 with respect to extension of the Revolving Credit Maturity Date); (g) a change in the manner of distribution of any payments to Lenders or Agent; (h) the release of Borrower or any Guarantor or any reduction of any Guarantor’s liability under the Guaranty except as otherwise provided in §5.5; (i) an amendment of the definition of Required Lenders or Required Class Lenders or of any requirement for consent by all Lenders or all Lenders of a certain Class; (j) any modification to require a Revolving Credit Lender to fund a pro rata share of a request for an advance of the Revolving Credit Loan made by Borrower other than based on its Applicable Percentage; (k) an amendment to this §28; (l) an amendment to the definition of Commitment Percentage, Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage, Term Loan Commitment Percentage, 2021 Term Loan Commitment Percentage, 2022 Term Loan Commitment Percentage, or Applicable Percentage; or (m) an amendment of any provision of this Agreement or the Loan Documents which requires the approval of all Lenders, the Required Lenders, or the Required Class Lenders to require a lesser number of Lenders to approve such action. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of §14 may not be amended without the written consent of Agent and no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by Agent in addition to the Lenders required above to take such action, amend, waive or consent to any departure from, the definitions of Adjusted Term SOFR, Term SOFR, Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR, Daily Simple SOFR (or any component definition of any of the foregoing), Conforming Changes or the provisions of §4.17 (except in accordance with §4.17).

No

125

waiver shall extend to or affect any obligation not expressly waived or impair any right consequent thereon. No course of dealing or delay or omission on the part of Agent or any Lender in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise be prejudicial thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each Affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each Affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than other Affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

In the event that any Lender (a “Non-Consenting Lender”) shall fail to consent to a waiver or amendment to, or a departure from, the provisions of this Agreement which requires the consent of all Lenders and that has been consented to by Agent and the Required Lenders, then Borrower shall have the right, upon written demand to such Non-Consenting Lender and Agent given within 30 days after a Lender fails to consent, refuses to consent or is deemed to have refused to consent to such request (a “Consent Request Date”), to cause such Non-Consenting Lender to assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Commitment or Commitments, the Loans owing to it and the Note or Notes, if any, held by it) to an existing Lender or a new Lender, provided that (i) as of such Consent Request Date and as of the date of Borrower’s written demand to replace such Non-Consenting Lender, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing other than a Default or Event of Default that resulted solely from the subject matter of the waiver or amendment for which such consent was being solicited from the Lenders by Agent and (ii) the replacement of any Non-Consenting Lender shall be consummated in accordance with and subject to the provisions of §4.15. The existing or new Lender that is purchasing the interests of the Non-Consenting Lender shall purchase such interests and shall assume the rights and obligations of the Non-Consenting Lender under this Agreement upon execution by such existing or new Lender of an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement delivered pursuant to §18.

All conditions to the performance of the obligations of Agent and Lenders under this Agreement, including the obligation to make Loans and issue Letters of Credit, are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Agent and Lenders, and their permitted successors and assigns, and no other Person shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions in accordance with their terms or be entitled to assume that Agent and Lenders will refuse to make Loans or issue Letters of Credit in the absence of strict compliance with any or all thereof and no other Person shall, under any circumstances, be deemed to be a beneficiary of such conditions, any and all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by Agent and Lenders at any time if in their sole discretion they deem it desirable to do so. In particular, Agent and Lenders make no representations and assume no obligations as to third parties concerning the quality of the construction by Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries of any development or the absence therefrom of defects.

So long as the Loans are outstanding, each of the Loan Parties hereby expressly defers and agrees (a) not to assert any right of contribution from or indemnity against any other Loan Party, whether at law or in equity, arising from any payments made by such Person pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or the Loan Documents, and (b) not to proceed against the other for reimbursement of any such payments. In connection with the foregoing, each of the Loan Parties expressly defers and agrees not to assert or take advantage of (i) any rights of subrogation to Lenders or Agent against the other Loan Parties, (ii) any rights to enforce any remedy which Lenders or Agent may have against the other Loan Parties and any rights to participate in any assets of the other Loan Parties. In addition to and without in any way limiting the foregoing, each of the Loan Parties hereby subordinates any and all indebtedness it may now or hereafter owe to such other Loan Parties to all indebtedness of the Loan Parties to Lenders and Agent, and agrees with Lenders and Agent that none of the Loan Parties shall claim any offset or other reduction of such Loan Party’s obligations hereunder because of any such indebtedness and shall not take any action to obtain any assets of the other Loan Parties so long as the Loans are outstanding.

§38.ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF BENEFITS; EFFECT OF AVOIDANCE PROVISIONS.

(a)Without limiting any other provision of §37, each Loan Party acknowledges that it has received, or will receive, significant financial and other benefits, either directly or indirectly, from the proceeds of the Loans made by Lenders to the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement; that the benefits received by such Loan Party are reasonably equivalent consideration for such Loan Party’s execution of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party; and that such benefits include, without limitation, the access to capital afforded to the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement from which the activities of such Loan

130

Party will be supported, the refinancing of certain existing indebtedness of such Loan Party secured by certain of such Loan Party’s assets from the proceeds of the Loans, and the ability to refinance that indebtedness at a lower interest rate and otherwise on more favorable terms than would be available to it if it were being financed on a stand-alone basis. Each Loan Party is executing this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in consideration of those benefits received by it and each Loan Party desires to enter into an allocation and contribution agreement with each other Loan Party as set forth in this §38 and agrees to subordinate and subrogate any rights or claims it may have against other Loan Parties as and to the extent set forth in §37.

(b)In the event any one or more Loan Parties (any such Loan Party, a “Funding Loan Party”) is deemed to have paid an amount in excess of the principal amount attributable to it (such principal amount, the “Allocable Principal Balance”) (any deemed payment in excess of the applicable Allocable Principal Balance, a “Contribution”) as a result of such Funding Loan Party’s payment of and/or performance on the Obligations, then after payment in full of the Loans and the satisfaction of all of the Loan Parties’ other obligations under the Loan Documents, such Funding Loan Party shall be entitled to contribution from each benefited Loan Party for the amount of the Contribution so benefited (any such contribution, a “Reimbursement Contribution”), up to such benefited Loan Party’s then current Allocable Principal Balance. Any Reimbursement Contributions required to be made hereunder shall, subject to §37, be made within ten (10) days after demand therefor.

(c)If a Loan Party (a “Defaulting Loan Party”) shall have failed to make a Reimbursement Contribution as hereinabove provided, after the later to occur of (a) payment of the Loan in full and the satisfaction of all of the Loan Parties’ other obligations to Lenders or (b) the date which is 366 days after the payment in full of the Loans, the Funding Loan Party to whom such Reimbursement Contribution is owed shall be subrogated to the rights of Lenders against such Defaulting Loan Party; provided, however, if Agent returns any payments in connection with a bankruptcy of a Loan Party, all other Loan Parties shall jointly and severally pay to Agent and Lenders all such amounts returned, together with interest at the Default Rate accruing from and after the date on which such amounts were returned.

(d)In the event that at any time there exists more than one Funding Loan Party with respect to any Contribution, then Reimbursement Contributions from Defaulting Loan Parties pursuant hereto shall be equitably allocated among such Funding Loan Parties. In the event that at any time any Loan Party pays an amount hereunder in excess of the amount calculated pursuant to this paragraph, that Loan Party shall be deemed to be a Funding Loan Party to the extent of such excess and shall be entitled to a Reimbursement Contribution from the other Loan Parties in accordance with the provisions of this §38.

(e) It is the intent of each Loan Party, Agent and Lenders that in any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or any similar debtor relief laws, such Loan Party’s maximum obligation hereunder shall equal, but not exceed, the maximum amount which would not otherwise cause the obligations of such Loan Party hereunder (or any other obligations of such Loan Party to Agent and Lenders under the Loan Documents) to be avoidable or unenforceable against such Loan Party in such proceeding as a result of applicable laws, including, without limitation, (i) Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code and (ii) any state fraudulent transfer or fraudulent conveyance act or statute applied in such proceeding, whether by virtue of Section 544 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise. The Legal Requirements under which the possible avoidance or unenforceability of the obligations of such Loan Party hereunder (or any other obligations of such Loan Party to Agent and Lenders under the Loan Documents) shall be determined in any such proceeding are referred to herein as “Avoidance Provisions”. Accordingly, to the extent that the obligations of a Loan Party hereunder would otherwise be subject to avoidance under the Avoidance Provisions, the maximum Obligations for which such Loan Party shall be liable hereunder shall be reduced to the greater of (A) the amount which, as

131

of the time any of the Obligations are deemed to have been incurred by such Loan Party under the Avoidance Provisions, would not cause the obligations of such Loan Party hereunder (or any other obligations of such Loan Party to Agent and Lenders under the Loan Documents), to be subject to avoidance under the Avoidance Provisions or (B) the amount which, as of the time demand is made hereunder upon such Loan Party for payment on account of the Obligations, would not cause the obligations of such Loan Party hereunder (or any other obligations of such Loan Party to Agent and Lenders under the Loan Documents), to be subject to avoidance under the Avoidance Provisions. The provisions of this §38(e) are intended solely to preserve the rights of Agent and Lenders hereunder to the maximum extent that would not cause the obligations of any Loan Party hereunder to be subject to avoidance under the Avoidance Provisions, and no Loan Party or any other Person shall have any right or claim under this Section as against Agent and Lenders that would not otherwise be available to such Person under the Avoidance Provisions.

§39.RECOURSE PROVISIONS.

(a)Loan Parties Fully Liable. The Loan Parties shall be fully liable for the Loans, the Letters of Credit, and the Obligations to each of the Lenders.

(b)Additional Matters. To the extent permitted under applicable law, nothing contained in these provisions or elsewhere shall limit the right of Agent or any Lender to obtain injunctive relief or to pursue equitable remedies under any of the Loan Documents, or to pursue common law remedies for matters constituting fraud, or misappropriation of rents, or insurance or condemnation proceeds, against any party.

§40.ACKNOWLEDGEMENT AND CONSENT TO BAIL-IN OF AFFECTED FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(f) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by a Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and

(g)the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

(i)a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

(ii)a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent entity, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

(iii)the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write- down and conversion powers of any Resolution Authority.

132

§41.ACKNOWLEDGEMENT REGARDING ANY SUPPORTED QFCS.

To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Hedge Obligations or any other 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 the Loan 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):

(a)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 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 the Loan 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 the Loan 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.

(b)As used in this §40, 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).

(i)“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.

133

(ii)“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).

Interest shall be payable on the dates specified in the Credit Agreement, except that all accrued interest shall be paid at the stated or accelerated maturity hereof or upon the prepayment in full hereof. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement.

Payments hereunder shall be made to Agent for the Payee at 000 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxx 00000-0000, or at such other address as Agent may designate from time to time, or made by wire transfer in accordance with wiring instructions provided by Agent.

If, from any circumstance whatsoever, interest would otherwise be payable to the Lenders in excess of the maximum lawful amount, the interest payable to the Lenders shall be reduced to the maximum amount permitted under applicable law; and if from any circumstance the Lenders shall ever receive anything of value deemed interest by applicable law in excess of the maximum lawful amount, an amount equal to any excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal balance of the Obligations of the undersigned Maker and to the payment of interest or, if such excessive interest exceeds the unpaid balance of principal of the Obligations of the undersigned Maker, such excess shall be refunded to the undersigned Maker. All interest paid or agreed to be paid to the Lenders shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full period until payment in full of the principal of the Obligations of the undersigned Maker (including the period of any renewal or extension thereof) so that the interest thereon for such full period shall not exceed the maximum amount permitted by applicable law. This paragraph shall control all agreements between the undersigned Maker and the Lenders and Agent.
