RECITALS

WHEREAS, Products, the Lenders, and Administrative Agent have entered into that certain Credit Agreement dated as of June 24, 2014 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time prior to the date hereof, the “Credit Agreement”; capitalized terms used (including in the preamble and recitals hereto) but not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Credit Agreement as amended hereby);

WHEREAS, the parties desire to cause the New Borrower to become a “Borrower” under the Credit Agreement as amended by this Amendment by executing a copy of this Amendment (the “Joinder”), and that certain Persons be added as Lenders, by virtue of their execution of a counterpart of this Amendment;

WHEREAS, simultaneously with the Joinder, Borrowers, Administrative Agent and Lenders parties hereto (comprising all Lenders) have agreed to certain modifications to the Credit Agreement including provisions permitting Borrowers to obtain an additional advance from the Lenders which new advance is intended by Borrowers to be used to finance, in part, the purchase price required by New Borrower to finance the cost of acquiring substantially all the assets of Yandy, LLC, an Arizona limited liability company (“Old Yandy”);

WHEREAS, China Products, as party hereto hereby consents to the foregoing modifications and the new advance to be made to Borrowers;

WHEREAS, Borrowers have requested that the mandatory prepayment required to be made pursuant to Section 2.06 (b)(i) of the Credit Agreement on the first Settlement Date after the Effective Date, be waived, and the Lenders parties hereto agree to such waiver; and

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants and agreements contained herein, as well as other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Joinder.

(a) New Borrower hereby acknowledges, agrees and confirms that, by its execution of this Amendment, New Borrower will be deemed a party to the Credit Agreement and a “Borrower” for all purposes of the Credit Agreement. New Borrower hereby ratifies, as of the Ninth Amendment Date, and agrees to be bound by, all of the terms, provisions and conditions applicable to the Borrowers contained in the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing terms of this Section 1(a), New Borrower hereby jointly and severally together with the other Borrowers and Guarantors, guarantees to the Lenders and each other holder of the Obligations, as primary obligor and not as surety, the prompt payment and performance of the Obligations in full when due (whether at state maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration or otherwise) strictly in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement as amended hereby and the other Loan Documents.

(b) New Borrower hereby represents and warrants to the Lender that the exact legal name and state of organization of New Borrower as of the Ninth Amendment Date is as set forth in the preamble hereto. The address of New Borrower for purposes of all notices and other communications is the address of the Borrower Representative. New Borrower hereby grants to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of all Lenders, a first priority security interest and Lien on all items of Collateral owned by New Borrower to secure the Obligations (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the 2019 Term Loan).

(c) Certain Persons executing this Amendment as a Lender, have not heretofore been a Lender (or been assigned rights as a Lender).

Except for the obligations, assignments and agreements set forth herein, each Borrower and each Loan Party hereby warrants, represents and agrees that it is fully aware of the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1542, which provides as follows:

“A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.”

Each Borrower hereby agrees that if and to the extent California law is applicable to the interpretation and enforcement of this letter agreement, each such Person expressly agrees to incorporate California Civil Code Section 1542 into this letter agreement and thereupon voluntarily waives the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1542, and any other similar law, as to any and all claims, demands, causes of action, or charges, known or unknown, and further agree that this waiver is a material aspect of the consideration for entering into letter agreement. Each Borrower hereby knowingly, voluntarily, intentionally and expressly waives and relinquishes any and 1111 rights and benefits that it may have under any provision of any jurisdiction that provides that a general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in the creditor’s favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by the creditor have materially affected the creditor’s settlement with the debtor, or any law of the any state or territory of the United States or any foreign country or principle of common law that is similar or analogous. Each Borrower hereby agrees and acknowledges that the foregoing waiver was separately bargained for. This waiver is an essential term of this Amendment, without which Lenders would not have agreed to execute this Amendment. The release contained herein and the related provisions shall survive the termination of the Credit Agreement and payment in full of the Obligations.

6. Representations and Warranties.

(a) Each Borrower hereby represents and warrants that, as of the date hereof: (i) it has all requisite power and authority to enter into this Amendment and to carry out the transactions contemplated hereby; (ii) the execution and delivery of this Amendment, and performance of this Amendment and the Credit Agreement as amended hereby, have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other organizational action on the part of such Borrower; (iii) this Amendment has been duly executed and delivered; and (iv) this Amendment (and the Credit Agreement as amended hereby) is the legally valid and binding obligation of such Borrower, enforceable against such Borrower in accordance with its respective terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principle of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

(b) Each Borrower hereby represents and warrants that, as of the date hereof, except as set forth in Annex II hereto, no changes to Schedule 4.01, 4.06 and 4.07 of the Credit Agreement are necessary to make the corresponding representations and warranties in the Credit Agreement true, correct and complete as of the date hereof. Borrowers have delivered to Administrative Agent copies of all Material Contracts (determined based on the 12 month period ending September 30, 2019).

(c) Each Borrower hereby represents and warrants that, as of the date hereof, to the best of its knowledge, no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents (in each case, as amended hereby).

(d) Each Borrower hereby represents and warrants that the proceeds from the 2019 Term Loan will be used solely to pay fees, costs and expenses as provided in this Amendment and a portion of the purchase price for the purchase of assets from Old Yandy.

7. Counterparts; Severability; Integration. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement via fax or in “.pdf” format by electronic mail shall be binding, and as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart, and may be used as admissible evidence that the party so transmitting intends to be bound by the terms set forth herein. All provisions of this Amendment are severable, and the unenforceability or invalidity of any of the provisions of this Amendment shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Amendment. Should any part of this Amendment be held invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the invalid or unenforceable portion or portions shall be removed (and no more) only in that jurisdiction, and the remainder shall be enforced as fully as possible (removing the minimum amount possible) in that jurisdiction. This Amendment represents the entire agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior negotiations, agreements and understandings with respect thereto, both written and oral. This Amendment may not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous or subsequent oral agreements of the parties. There are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by any party hereto relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein, and there are no unwritten or oral agreements between the parties.

8. Governing Law: Consent to Jurisdiction: WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. This Amendment and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance with, the law of the State of New York, without regard for its conflicts of laws principles. Sections 10.13 and 10.14 of the Credit Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference as if fully stated herein. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AMENDMENT AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN.

9. Loan Document; Successors and Assigns. This Amendment shall be deemed to be a Loan Document. This Amendment shall be binding upon each of the Borrowers, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent, and each of their respective successors and permitted assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the respective successors and permitted assigns of the parties hereto and any other indemnified parties hereunder and their respective successors, permitted assigns and representatives.

10. No Other Modification. The amendments set forth in Section 2 herein are limited as specified and shall not constitute or be deemed to constitute (i) an amendment, waiver or modification of, or consent to any deviation from, the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, except as expressly set forth herein, or (ii) an agreement by the Administrative Agent, or any Lender to consent to any future amendment, waiver, modification or consent with respect to any provision of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document. Except as expressly set forth herein, the Credit Agreement and each other Loan Document shall remain in full force and effect and are hereby confirmed and ratified in all respects, including with respect to any security interest or Lien granted to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents. Upon the effectiveness of this Amendment, on and after the date hereof, each reference in the Credit Agreement to “this Agreement,” “hereunder,” “hereof,” “herein” or words of like import shall mean and be a reference to the Credit Agreement, as amended and modified hereby.

11. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure by Administrative Agent or any Lender to exercise any right, remedy, or option under this Amendment or any other Loan Document, or delay by Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising the same, will operate as a waiver thereof. No waiver by Administrative Agent or any Lender will be effective unless it is in writing, and then only to the extent specifically stated. No waiver by Administrative Agent or any Lender on any occasion shall affect or diminish Administrative Agent’s and each Lender’s rights thereafter to require strict performance by each Borrower of any provision of this Amendment. Administrative Agent’s and each Lender’s rights under this Amendment and the other Loan Documents will be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right or remedy that Administrative Agent or any Lender may have.

12. Costs and Expenses. To the extent not already paid by Borrowers, Borrowers agree to reimburse Administrative Agent promptly for all reasonable and documented out of pocket costs and expenses (including the reasonable legal fees and disbursements of its legal counsel) in connection with the preparation and negotiation of this Amendment and/or all of the matters relating to the Loan referenced herein.

(a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate or the LIBOR Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period; or

(b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Eurodollar Rate or the LIBOR Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower Representative and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Notice of Conversion/Continuation that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective and any such Eurodollar Borrowing shall be converted to a Base Rate Borrowing on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as a Base Rate Borrowing, provided, that if at any time the Administrative Agent determines that (i) the circumstances set forth in Section 2.07(a) have arisen and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary or (ii) the circumstances set forth in clause (a) have not arisen but the supervisor for the administrator of the LIBOR Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the LIBOR Rate shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest to the LIBOR Rate that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for syndicated loans in the United States at such time, and shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes to this Agreement as may be applicable.

Section 2.08 Increased Costs.

(a) If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, liquidity or similar requirement (including any compulsory loan requirement, insurance charge or other assessment) against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Eurodollar Rate);

(ii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender; or

(iii) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Recipient of making, continuing, converting into or maintaining any Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Recipient hereunder, whether of principal, interest or otherwise, then, upon the request of such Recipient each Borrower will pay to such Recipient such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Recipient for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any, or any lending office of any of the foregoing regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time each Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) A certificate of the applicable Recipient setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Recipient or its holding company as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower Representative and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay to such Recipient, the amount shown as due on any such certificate on the first Settlement Date occurring at least ten (10) days after the Borrower Representative’s receipt of such certificate in accordance with Section 8.03.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of the Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate the Administrative Agent or a Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 270 days prior to the date that the Administrative Agent or such Lender notifies the Borrower Representative of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of the Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s or intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 270-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

Section 2.09 Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default or as a result of any prepayment pursuant to Section 2.06), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurodollar Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be and is revoked in accordance with this Agreement) or (d) the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower Representative pursuant to Section 2.12, then, in any such event, the Borrowers shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. Such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Eurodollar Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for deposits in Dollars of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower Representative and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate on the first Settlement Date occurring at least ten (10) days after the Borrower Representative’s receipt of such certificate in accordance with Section 8.03.

Section 2.10 Payments Generally; Allocations of Proceeds; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs.

(a) Each Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest or fees, or of amounts payable under Sections 2.08, 2.09 or 2.11, or otherwise) prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent’s Account, except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.08, 2.09, 2.11, 10.04 and 10.05 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in Dollars.

(b) Any proceeds of Collateral received by the Administrative Agent (i) not constituting (A) a specific payment of principal, interest, fees or other sum payable under the Loan Documents (which shall be applied as specified by the Borrower Representative) or (B) a mandatory prepayment (which shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.06) or (ii) after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent so elects or the Required Lenders so direct, such funds shall be applied ratably first, to pay any Additional Financing Costs then due to the Administrative Agent from the Borrowers, second, to pay any Additional Financing Costs then due to the Lenders from the Borrowers, third, to pay interest then due and payable on the Loans ratably, fourth, to prepay principal on the Loans ratably, and fifth, to the payment of any other Obligation due to the Administrative Agent or any Lender by the Borrowers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, unless so directed by the Borrower Representative, or unless an Event of Default is in existence, none of the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall apply any payment which it receives to any Eurodollar Loan, except (a) on the expiration date of the Interest Period applicable to any such Eurodollar Loan or (b) in the event, and only to the extent, that there are no outstanding Base Rate Loans and, in any event, the Borrowers shall pay the break funding payment required in accordance with Section 2.09. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply and reverse and reapply any and all such proceeds and payments to any portion of the Obligations.

(c) If, except as expressly provided herein, any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other similarly situated Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by all such Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by a Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to a Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). Each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower Representative prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant Lenders hereunder that the Borrowers will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrowers have made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the relevant Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the Borrowers have not in fact made such payment, then each of the relevant Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

(e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.10(d) or 10.03(f), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender and for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, to satisfy such Lender’s obligations to it under such Section until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account over which the Administrative Agent shall have exclusive control as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Lender under any such Section; in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion.

Section 2.11 Taxes. Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of Parent or any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable withholding agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a withholding agent, then the applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by Parent or the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholding applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.11) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(a) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrowers. Each Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for, Other Taxes.

(b) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by Parent or any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.11, Parent or such Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(c) Indemnification by Parent and the Loan Parties. Parent and the Loan Parties shall indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified 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 the Borrower Representative by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that neither Parent nor any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of Parent and the Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.03(f) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this clause (e).

(e) Status of Lenders. Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.11(f)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(i) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. Federal backup withholding tax;

(B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-2 or Exhibit F-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. Federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(D) 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 the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent 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 the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent 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.

(f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.11 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.11), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.11 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this clause (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this clause (g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this clause (g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(g) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.11 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

(h) Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 2.11, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

Section 2.12 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.08, or a Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.11, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.8 or 2.11, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. Each Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(a) If (i) any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.08, (ii) each Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.11 or (iii) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower Representative may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.03), all its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Sections 2.08 or 2.11) and obligations under the Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Borrower Representative shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.08 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.11, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrowers to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

Section 2.13 Borrower Representative; Joint and Several Liability. Products hereby (i) is designated and appointed by each other Borrower as its representative and agent on its behalf (in such capacity, the “Borrower Representative”) and (ii) accepts such appointment as the Borrower Representative, in each case, for the purposes of issuing Requests for Credit Extensions, delivering certificates (including Compliance Certificates), giving instructions with respect to the disbursement of the proceeds of the Loans, selecting interest rate options, giving and receiving all other notices and consents hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents and taking all other actions (including in respect of compliance with covenants, but without relieving any other Borrower of its joint and several obligations to pay and perform the Obligations) on behalf of any Borrower or the Borrowers under the Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent and each Lender may regard any notice or other communication pursuant to any Loan Document from the Borrower Representative as a notice or communication from all Borrowers. Each representation, warranty, covenant, agreement and undertaking made on behalf of a Borrower by the Borrower Representative shall be deemed for all purposes to have been made by such Borrower and shall be binding upon and enforceable against such Borrower to the same extent as if the same had been made directly by such Borrower. All Obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be the joint and several Obligations of each Borrower.

Section 9.04 Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that the extensions of credit made hereunder are commercial loans and letters of credit and not investments in a business enterprise or securities. Each Lender further represents that it is engaged in making, acquiring or holding commercial loans in the ordinary course of its business and has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement as a Lender, and to make, acquire or hold Loans hereunder. Each Lender shall, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information (which may contain material, non-public information within the meaning of the United States securities laws concerning any Borrower and its Affiliates) as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder and in deciding whether or to the extent to which it will continue as a lender or assign or otherwise transfer its rights, interests and obligations hereunder.

Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. After the Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article IX and Sections 10.04 and 10.05 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Persons in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as Administrative Agent.

Section 9.06 Fortress. With respect to the Loans made by it, Fortress shall have the same rights and powers under the Loan Documents as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent; and the term “Lender” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include Fortress in its individual capacity. Fortress may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, accept investment banking engagements from and generally engage in any kind of business with, Sponsor, Holdings, ~~PBE~~PEI, Parent or any Group Member or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing and any Person that may do business with or own securities of Sponsor, Holdings, ~~PBE~~PEI, Parent or any Group Member or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing, all as if Fortress were not the Administrative Agent and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

The Register shall be available for inspection by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower Representative or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. This Section shall be construed so that the Obligations are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code and any related regulations (or any other relevant or successor provisions of the Code or such regulations).

(d) Upon (i) the Administrative Agent’s receipt of an Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee that is an Eligible Assignee, and (ii) the satisfaction of the other conditions set forth in clause (a) above, the Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment and Assumption has been completed and is in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto, (x) accept such Assignment and Assumption, (y) record the information contained therein in the Register and (z) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower Representative.

(e) In addition to the other rights provided in this Section 10.03, each Lender may grant a security interest in, or otherwise assign as collateral, any of its rights under this Agreement, whether now owned or hereafter acquired (including rights to payments of principal or interest on the Loans), to (A) any federal reserve bank (pursuant to Regulation A of the Federal Reserve Board), without notice to the Administrative Agent or (B) any holder of, or trustee for the benefit of the holders of, such Lender’s securities by notice to the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that no such holder or trustee, whether because of such grant or assignment or any foreclosure thereon (unless such foreclosure is made through an assignment in accordance with clause (a) above), shall be entitled to any rights of such Lender hereunder and no such Lender shall be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder.

(f) In addition to the other rights provided in this Section 10.03, each Lender may, (x) with notice to the Administrative Agent, grant to an SPV the option to make or purchase all or any part of any Loan that such Lender would otherwise be required to make or maintain hereunder (and the exercise of such option by such SPV and the making or purchase of Loans pursuant thereto shall satisfy the obligation of such Lender to make or maintain such Loans hereunder) and such SPV may assign to such Lender the right to receive payment with respect to any Obligation and (y) without notice to or consent from the Administrative Agent or the Borrowers, sell participations to one or more Persons that is an Eligible Assignee in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents (including all its rights and obligations with respect to the Loans); provided, however, that, whether as a result of any term of any Loan Document or of such grant or participation, (i) no such SPV or participant shall have a commitment, or be deemed to have made an offer to commit, to make or maintain Loans hereunder, and, except as provided in the applicable option agreement, none shall be liable for any obligation of such Lender hereunder, (ii) such Lender’s rights and obligations, and the rights and obligations of the Parent and the Loan Parties and the Secured Parties towards such Lender, under any Loan Document shall remain unchanged and each other party hereto shall continue to deal solely with such Lender, which shall remain the holder of the Obligations in the Register, except that (A) each such participant and SPV shall be entitled to the benefit of Sections 2.08, 2.9 and 2.11, but only to the extent such participant or SPV delivers the Tax forms such Lender is required to collect pursuant to Section 2.11(f) and then only to the extent of any amount to which such Lender would be entitled in the absence of any such grant or participation except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater amount results from any change in, or in the interpretation of, any Legal Requirement that occurs after the date such grant or participation is made, and (B) each such SPV may receive other payments that would otherwise be made to such Lender with respect to Loans funded or maintained by such SPV to the extent provided in the applicable option agreement and set forth in a notice provided to the Administrative Agent by such SPV and such Lender, provided, however, that in no case (including pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above) shall an SPV or participant have the right to enforce any of the terms of any Loan Document (including by exercise of any right of set-off available to a Lender pursuant to Section 10.06) and (iii) the consent of such SPV or participant shall not be required (either directly, as a restraint on such Lender’s ability to consent hereunder or otherwise) for any amendments, waivers or consents with respect to any Loan Document or to exercise or refrain from exercising any powers or rights such Lender may have under or in respect of the Loan Documents (including the right to enforce or direct enforcement of the Obligations), except for those first proviso to Section 9.02(b). No party hereto shall institute (and each of the Borrowers shall cause each other Loan Party not to institute) against any SPV grantee of an option pursuant to this clause (f) any bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, liquidation or similar proceeding, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper of such SPV; provided, however, that each Lender having designated an SPV as such agrees to indemnify each Indemnitee against any Liability that may be incurred by, or asserted against, such Indemnitee as a result of failing to institute such proceeding (including a failure to get reimbursed by such SPV for any such liability). The agreement in the preceding sentence shall survive the Termination Date. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, 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 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 other than the Administrative Agent except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, to the extent the Borrowers’ or Borrower Representative’s consent is required pursuant to the terms hereof and is not properly obtained, the Borrowers shall be entitled to seek specific performance to unwind any such participation in addition to any other remedies available to the Borrowers at law or in equity.

Section 10.04 Indemnification. The Borrowers agree to indemnify, hold harmless and defend the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each of their respective Related Persons (each such Person being an “Indemnitee”) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, (including brokerage commissions, fees and other compensation) that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Indemnitee (whether brought by a Loan Party, an Affiliate of a Loan Party or any other Person) in any matter relating to or arising out of, in connection with or as a result of (i) the execution, delivery, administration or enforcement of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any commitment letter, proposal letter or term sheet with any Person or any Contractual Obligation, arrangement or understanding with any broker, finder or consultant, in each case entered into by or on behalf of the any Group Member or any Affiliate of any of them in connection with any of the foregoing and any Contractual Obligation entered into in connection with any electronic data sites and electronic transmissions, (iii) any actual or prospective investigation, litigation or other proceeding, whether or not brought by any such Indemnitee or any of its Related Persons, any holders of securities or creditors (and including reasonable and documented fees and out-of-pocket expenses of one primary external legal counsel to such Indemnitees, taken as a whole, one primary local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction and one specialty counsel for each relevant specialty to all such Indemnitees, taken as a whole, and solely, in the event of a conflict of interest, one additional counsel (and, if necessary, one primary local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction and one specialty counsel for each relevant specialty) to each group of similarly situated affected Indemnitees), whether or not any such Indemnitee, Related Person, holder or creditor is a party thereto, and whether or not based on any securities or commercial law or regulation or any other Legal Requirement or theory thereof, including common law, equity, contract, tort or otherwise or (iv) any other act, event or transaction related, contemplated in or attendant to any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Indemnified Matters”); provided, however, that the Borrowers shall not have any liability under this Section 10.04 to any Indemnitee with respect to any Indemnified Matter, and no Indemnitee shall have any liability with respect to any Indemnified Matter other than (to the extent otherwise liable), to the extent such liability has resulted directly from (x) the gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of such Indemnitee as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment or order, (y) a material breach of such Indemnitee’s obligations under the Loan Documents at a time when neither Parent nor any Loan Party has breached its obligations under the Loan Documents in any material respects as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment or order or (z) any dispute among Indemnitees at a time when neither Parent nor any Loan Party has breached its obligations under the Loan Documents in any material respects (other than any claims arising against the Administrative Agent in its capacity or in fulfilling its role as an administrative agent or any similar role under the Loan Documents and claims arising out of any act or omission on the party of the Loan Parties or their Affiliates). Furthermore, the Borrowers waive and agree not to assert against any Indemnitee, and shall cause Parent and each other Loan Party to waive and not assert against any Indemnitee, any right of contribution with respect to any liabilities that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any Related Person. This Section 10.04(a) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent liabilities arising from a non-Tax claim.

(a) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrowers shall not assert, and hereby waive, any claim against any Indemnitee on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof.

Section 10.05 Costs and Expenses. Any action taken by Parent or any Loan Party under or with respect to any Loan Document, even if required under any Loan Document or at the request of any Secured Party, shall be at the expense of Parent or such Loan Party, and no Secured Party shall be required under any Loan Document to reimburse Parent or any Loan Party or Group Member therefor except as expressly provided therein. In addition, the Borrowers agree to pay or reimburse upon demand (a) the Administrative Agent for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by it or any of its Related Persons in connection with the investigation, development, preparation, negotiation, syndication, execution, interpretation or administration of, any modification of any term of or termination of, any Loan Document, any commitment or proposal letter therefor, any other document prepared in connection therewith or the consummation and administration of any transaction contemplated therein (including periodic audits in connection therewith and environmental audits and assessments), in each case including the reasonable and documented fees and out-of-pocket expenses of one primary external legal counsel and, to the extent necessary, one primary local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction and one specialty counsel in each relevant specialty to the Administrative Agent or such Related Persons, reasonable and documented fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with any electronic system, including IntraLinks®, SyndTrak® and ClearPar® and any other Internet or extranet-based site, whether such electronic system is owned, operated or hosted by the Administrative Agent, any of its Related Persons or any other Person and allocated to the Facility by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion and fees, charges and disbursements of the auditors, appraisers, printers and other of their Related Persons retained by or on behalf of any of them or any of their Related Persons and (b) each of the Administrative Agent, its Related Persons, and each Lender for all costs and expenses incurred in connection with (i) any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided hereunder in the nature of a “work-out”, (ii) the enforcement or preservation of any right or remedy under any Loan Document, any Obligation, with respect to the Collateral or any other related right or remedy or (iii) the commencement, defense, conduct of, intervention in, or the taking of any other action (including preparation for and/or response to any subpoena or request for document production relating thereto) with respect to, any proceeding (including any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding) related to any Group Member, Loan Document or Obligation including reasonable and documented fees and out-of-pocket expenses of (A) one primary external legal counsel and, to the extent necessary, one primary local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction and one specialty counsel for each relevant specialty to the Administrative Agent, (B) one primary external legal counsel and, to the extent necessary, one primary local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction and one specialty counsel for each relevant specialty and one or more additional counsel if one or more conflicts of interest arise to all of the Lenders and (C) one financial advisor engaged by the Administrative Agent (or legal counsel for the Administrative Agent) for itself and the Lenders.

Section 10.06 Right of Set-off. Each of the Administrative Agent and each Lender is hereby authorized, without notice or demand (each of which is hereby waived by the Borrowers), at any time and from time to time during the continuance of any Event of Default and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, to set off and apply any and all deposits (whether general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other Indebtedness, claims or other obligations at any time owing by the Administrative Agent or such Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Borrowers against any Obligation of Parent or any other Loan Party now or hereafter existing, whether or not any demand was made under any Loan Document with respect to such Obligation and even though such Obligation may be unmatured. Each of the Administrative Agent and each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights under this Section 10.06 are in addition to any other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and other Secured Parties may have.

Section 10.07 No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of the Borrowers, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder or under any Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

Section 10.08 Severability. The invalidity, illegality or unenforceability in any jurisdiction of any provision in or obligation under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall not affect or impair the validity, legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction.

Section 10.09 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Borrowers, each Lender and the Administrative Agent and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrowers, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that the Borrowers shall not have the right to assign its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Lenders.

Section 10.10 Entire Agreement. The Loan Documents embody the entire agreement of the parties and supersede all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter thereof and any prior letter of interest, commitment letter, fee letter, confidentiality and similar agreements involving any Loan Party and any of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates relating to a financing of substantially similar form, purpose or effect. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and any Loan Document, the terms of this Agreement shall govern (unless such terms of such other Loan Documents are necessary to comply with applicable Legal Requirements, in which case such terms shall govern to the extent necessary to comply therewith).

Section 10.11 Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by Parent and the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect until the Termination Date. The provisions of Sections 2.08, 2.09, 2.11, 10.04 and 10.05 and Article IX shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the Transactions, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any provision hereof or thereof.

The parties hereto (and, to the extent set forth in any other Loan Document, Parent and each other Loan Party) hereby irrevocably waive any objection, including any objection to the laying of venue or based on the grounds of forum non conveniens, that any of them may now or hereafter have to the bringing of any such action or proceeding in such jurisdictions.

Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement via fax or in “.pdf” format by electronic mail shall be binding, and as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart, and may be used as admissible evidence that the party so transmitting intends to be bound by the terms set forth herein.

Section 10.16 Confidentiality. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that such information may be disclosed (i) with the Borrower Representative’s consent, (ii) to Related Persons of such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, that are advised of the confidential nature of such information and are instructed to keep such information confidential in accordance with the terms hereof, (iii) to the extent such information presently is or hereafter becomes (A) publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.16 or (B) available to such Lender or the Administrative Agent or any of their Related Persons, as the case may be, from a source (other than Parent or any Loan Party) not known to them to be subject to disclosure restrictions, (iv) to the extent disclosure is required by applicable Legal Requirements or other legal process, (v) to the extent required or requested by any Governmental Authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Lender or the Administrative Agent or any of their Related Persons (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (vi) to any nationally recognized rating agency for the purpose of obtaining a credit rating applicable to any Loan or Loan Party or otherwise to the extent consisting of general portfolio information that does not identify Parent or Loan Parties, (vii) to current or prospective assignees, SPVs (including the investors or prospective investors therein), grantees of any option described in Section 10.03 or participants and to their respective Related Persons, in each case to the extent such assignees, participants or Related Persons agree to be bound by provisions substantially similar to the provisions of this Section 10.16 (and such Person may disclose information to their respective Related Persons in accordance with clause (ii) above), (viii) to any other party hereto and (ix) in connection with the exercise or enforcement of any right or remedy under any Loan Document, in connection with any litigation or other proceeding to which such Lender or the Administrative Agent or any of their Related Persons is a party or bound, to the extent necessary to respond to public statements or disclosures by Parent or the Loan Parties or their Related Persons referring to a Lender or the Administrative Agent or any of their Related Persons. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Section 10.16 and those of any other Contractual Obligation entered into with Parent or any Loan Party (whether or not a Loan Document), the terms of this Section 10.16 shall govern. For purposes of this Section 10.16, “Information” means all information received from Holdings, the Borrowers or any of its Subsidiaries relating to such Persons or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by such Person; provided that, in the case of information received from any of such Persons after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 10.16 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

Section 10.17 Patriot Act Notice. Each Lender that is subject to the requirements of the Patriot Act hereby notifies the Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Parent and each Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of Parent or such Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender to identify Parent or such Loan Party in accordance with the Patriot Act.

Section 10.18 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.

Section 10.19 No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that: (i) (A) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Lenders are arm’s-length commercial transactions between each Borrower and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Lenders and their Affiliates, on the other hand, (B) each Borrower has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (C) each Borrower is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) (A) each of the Lenders and their Affiliates is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for any Borrower or any of its Affiliates, or any other Person and (B) no Lender or any of its Affiliates has any obligation to any Borrower or any of its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except, in the case of a Lender, those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) each of the Lenders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrowers and their Affiliates, and no Lender or any of its Affiliates has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to any Borrower or its Affiliates.
