(b) Refunding. (i) Swingline Loans to any Borrower shall be refunded by the Lenders on demand by the Swingline Lender. Such refundings shall be made by the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment Ratios and shall thereafter be reflected as Revolving Loans of the Lenders to such Borrower on the books and records of the Administrative Agent.

(Charlotte, North Carolina time) on the next succeeding Business Day after such demand is made. No Lender’s obligation to fund its respective Commitment Ratio of a Swingline Loan shall be affected by any other Lender’s failure to fund its Commitment Ratio of a Swingline

30 Loan, nor shall any Lender’s Commitment Ratio be increased as a result of any such failure of any other Lender to fund its Commitment Ratio of a Swingline Loan. (ii) Each Borrower shall pay to the Swingline Lender on demand, and in no case more than fourteen (14) days after the date that such Swingline Loan is made, the amount of such Swingline Loan made to such Borrower to the extent amounts received from the Lenders are not sufficient to repay in full the outstanding Swingline Loans made to such Borrower requested or required to be refunded. In addition, the applicable Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to charge any account maintained by such Borrower with the Swingline Lender (up to the amount available therein) in order to immediately pay the Swingline Lender the amount of such Swingline Loans made to such Borrower to the extent amounts received from the Lenders are not sufficient to repay in full the outstanding Swingline Loans made to such Borrower requested or required to be refunded. If any portion of any such amount paid to the Swingline Lender shall be recovered by or on behalf of the applicable Borrower from the Swingline Lender in bankruptcy or otherwise, the loss of the amount so recovered shall be ratably shared among all the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment Ratios (unless the amounts so recovered by or on behalf of the applicable Borrower pertain to a Swingline Loan extended after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default of which the Administrative Agent has received notice in the manner required pursuant to Section 8.05 and which such Event of Default has not been waived by the Required Lenders or the Lenders, as applicable). (iii) Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to refund Swingline Loans (other than Swingline Loans extended after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default of which the Administrative Agent has received notice in the manner required pursuant to Section 8.05 and which such Event of Default has not been waived by the Required Lenders or the Lenders, as applicable) in accordance with the terms of this Section is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including, without limitation, non-satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Article IV. Further, each Lender agrees and acknowledges that if prior to the refunding of any outstanding Swingline Loans pursuant to this Section, one of the events described in Section 7.01(h) or (i) shall have occurred, each Lender will, on the date the applicable Revolving Loan would have been made, purchase an undivided participating interest in the Swingline Loan to be refunded in an amount equal to its Commitment Ratio of the aggregate amount of such Swingline Loan. Each Lender will immediately transfer to the Swingline Lender, in immediately available funds, the amount of its participation and upon receipt thereof the Swingline Lender will deliver to such Lender a certificate evidencing such participation dated the date of receipt of such funds and for such amount. Whenever, at any time after the Swingline Lender has received from any Lender such Xxxxxx’s participating interest in a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender receives any payment on account thereof, the Swingline Lender will distribute to such Lender its participating interest in such amount (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Xxxxxx’s participating interest was outstanding and funded). (c) Reallocation of Risk Participations. On the 2026 Termination Date, all participating interests with respect to Swingline Loans incurred by the Borrower on or prior to such date shall be reallocated to the 2027 Revolving Lenders in accordance with their pro rata share of the remaining Revolving Commitments; provided that such reallocation shall only be effected to the extent that it would not result in the sum of such Xxxxxx’s Revolving Outstandings exceeding such Lender’s 2027 Revolving Commitment; provided further that if the reallocation in the preceding proviso would result in any Lender’s 2027 Revolving Outstandings to exceed such Xxxxxx’s 2027 Revolving Commitment, then all outstanding Swingline Loans shall be immediately repaid in full (and there shall be no adjustment to the participations in such Swingline Loans as a result of the occurrence of the 2026 Termination Date).

31 Section 2.03 Notice of Borrowings. The applicable Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent notice substantially in the form of Exhibit A-1 hereto (a “Notice of Borrowing”) not later than (a) 11:30 A.M.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no more than six (6) Groups of Term SOFR Loans shall be outstanding at any one time for each Borrower, and any Loans which would exceed such limitation shall be made as Base Rate Loans. Section 2.04 Notice to Lenders; Funding of Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans. (a) Notice to Lenders. Upon receipt of a Notice of Borrowing (other than in respect of a Borrowing of a Swingline Loan), the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of such Lender’s ratable share (if any) of the Borrowing referred to in the Notice of Borrowing, and such Notice of Borrowing shall not thereafter be revocable by the applicable Borrower.

(Charlotte, North Carolina time) on the date of each Base Rate Borrowing and (b) 12:00 Noon (Charlotte, North Carolina time) on the date of each Term SOFR Borrowing, each Lender shall make available its ratable share of such Borrowing, in Federal or other funds immediately available in Charlotte, North Carolina, to the Administrative Agent at its address referred to in Section 9.01.

Revolving Loans to be made for the purpose of refunding Swingline Loans shall be made by the Lenders as provided in Section 2.02(b). (c) Funding By the Administrative Agent in Anticipation of Amounts Due from the Lenders. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing (except in the case of a Base Rate Borrowing, in which case prior to the time of such Borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Xxxxxx’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with subsection (b) of this Section, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so

32 made such share available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the applicable Borrower severally agree to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount, together with interest thereon for each day from the date such amount is made available to the applicable Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at (i) a rate per annum equal to the higher of the Federal Funds Rate and the interest rate applicable thereto pursuant to Section 2.06, in the case of the applicable Borrower, and (ii) the Federal Funds Rate, in the case of such Lender. Any payment by the applicable Borrower hereunder shall be without prejudice to any claim such Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make its share of a Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent. If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement. (d) Obligations of Lenders Several. The failure of any Lender to make a Loan required to be made by it as part of any Borrowing hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make any Loan on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Loan to be made by such other Lender on such date of Borrowing. Section 2.05 Noteless Agreement; Evidence of Indebtedness; Several Liability. (a) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of each Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. (b) The Administrative Agent shall also maintain accounts in which it will record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Type thereof and the Interest Period with respect thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from each Borrower and each Lender’s share thereof. (c) The entries maintained in the accounts maintained pursuant to subsections (a) and (b) above shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the Obligations therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of any Borrower to repay the Obligations owing by it in accordance with their terms. (d) Any Lender may request that its Loans be evidenced by a Note. In such event, the applicable Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a Note payable to the order of such Lender. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such Note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after any assignment pursuant to Section 9.06(c)) be represented by one or more Notes payable to the order of the payee named therein or any assignee pursuant to Section 9.06(c), except to the extent that any such Lender or assignee subsequently returns any such Note for cancellation and requests that such Loans once again be evidenced as described in subsections (a) and (b) above. (e) The Borrowers shall be severally and not jointly liable with respect to their respective Obligations hereunder. Neither Borrower shall be liable for (i) any Loans made to the other Borrower, (ii) any Letters of Credit issued for the account of the other Borrower, or (iii) any other Obligations of the other Borrower (unless, in the case of this clause (iii) only, such parties are expressly jointly and severally liable therefor).

33 Section 2.06 Interest Rates. (a) Interest Rate Options. The Loans shall, at the option of the applicable Borrower and except as otherwise provided herein, be incurred and maintained as, or converted into, one or more Base Rate Loans or Term SOFR Loans. (b) Base Rate Loans; Swingline Loans. Each Loan which is made as, or converted into, a Base Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day from the date such Loan is made as, or converted into, a Base Rate Loan until it becomes due or is converted into a Loan of any other Type, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Base Rate for such day plus the Applicable Percentage for the applicable Borrower for Base Rate Loans for such day. Each Loan which is made as a Swingline Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day from the date such Loan is made until it becomes due at a rate per annum equal to the SOFR Market Index Rate for such day plus the Applicable Percentage for the applicable Borrower for Term SOFR Loans for such day. Such interest shall, in each case, be payable quarterly in arrears on each Quarterly Date (or, with respect to Swingline Loans, as the Swingline Lender and the applicable Borrower may otherwise agree in writing) and, with respect to the principal amount of any Base Rate Loan converted to a Term SOFR Loan, on the date such Base Rate Loan is so converted. Any overdue principal of or interest on any Base Rate Loan or Swingline Loan shall bear interest, payable on demand, for each day until paid at a rate per annum equal to the sum of 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to Base Rate Loans or Swingline Loans for the applicable Borrower for such day. (c) Term SOFR Loans. Each Term SOFR Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day during the Interest Period applicable thereto, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of Adjusted Term SOFR for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Percentage for the applicable Borrower for Term SOFR Loans for such day. Such interest shall be payable for each Interest Period on the last day thereof and, if such Interest Period is longer than three months, at intervals of three months after the first day thereof. Any overdue principal of or interest on any Term SOFR Loan shall bear interest, payable on demand, for each day until paid at a rate per annum equal to the sum of 2% plus the sum of (A) Adjusted Term SOFR at the date such payment was due plus (B) the Applicable Percentage for the applicable Borrower for Term SOFR Loans for such day (or, if the circumstance described in Section 2.14 shall exist, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of 2% plus the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans for the applicable Borrower for such day). (d) Method of Electing Interest Rates. (i) Subject to Section 2.06(a), the Loans included in each Revolving Borrowing shall bear interest initially at the type of rate specified by the applicable Borrower in the applicable Notice of Borrowing. Thereafter, with respect to each Group of Loans, each Borrower shall have the option with respect to the Loans made to such Borrower (A) to convert all or any part of (y) so long as no Default is in existence on the date of conversion, outstanding Base Rate Loans to Term SOFR Loans and (z) outstanding Term SOFR Loans to Base Rate Loans; provided, in each case, that the amount so converted shall be equal to $10,000,000 or any larger integral multiple of $1,000,000, or (B) upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to outstanding Term SOFR Loans, so long as no Default is in existence on the date of continuation, to continue all or any portion of such Loans, equal to $10,000,000 and any larger integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount as Term SOFR Loans. The Interest Period of any Base Rate Loan converted to a Term SOFR Loan pursuant to clause (A) above shall commence on the date of such conversion. The succeeding Interest Period of any Term SOFR Loan continued pursuant to clause (B) above shall commence on the last day of the Interest Period of the Loan so continued. Term SOFR Loans

34 may only be converted on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto or on the date required pursuant to Section 2.18. (ii) The applicable Borrower shall deliver a written notice of each such conversion or continuation (a “Notice of Conversion/Continuation”) to the Administrative Agent no later than (A) 12:00 P.M. (Charlotte, North Carolina time) at least three (3) U.S. Government Securities Business Days before the effective date of the proposed conversion to, or continuation of, a Term SOFR Loan and (B) 11:30 A.M. (Charlotte, North Carolina time) on the day of a conversion to a Base Rate Loan. A written Notice of Conversion/Continuation shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A-2 attached hereto and shall specify: (A) the Group of Loans (or portion thereof) to which such notice applies, (B) the proposed conversion/continuation date (which shall be a Business Day), (C) the aggregate amount of the Loans being converted/continued, (D) an election between the Base Rate and Adjusted Term SOFR and (E) in the case of a conversion to, or a continuation of, Term SOFR Loans, the requested Interest Period. Upon receipt of a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, the Administrative Agent shall give each Lender prompt notice of the contents thereof and such Xxxxxx’s pro rata share of all conversions and continuations requested therein. If no timely Notice of Conversion/Continuation is delivered by the applicable Borrower as to any Term SOFR Loan, and such Loan is not repaid by such Borrower at the end of the applicable Interest Period, such Loan shall be converted automatically to a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the then applicable Interest Period. (e) Determination and Notice of Interest Rates. The Administrative Agent shall determine each interest rate applicable to the Loans hereunder. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the applicable Borrower and the participating Lenders of each rate of interest so determined, and its determination thereof shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Any notice with respect to Term SOFR Loans shall, without the necessity of the Administrative Agent so stating in such notice, be subject to adjustments in the Applicable Percentage applicable to such Loans after the beginning of the Interest Period applicable thereto. When during an Interest Period any event occurs that causes an adjustment in the Applicable Percentage applicable to Loans to which such Interest Period is applicable, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the applicable Borrower and the Lenders of such event and the adjusted rate of interest so determined for such Loans, and its determination thereof shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Section 2.07 Fees. (a) Commitment Fees. Each Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender on a ratable basis a fee (the “Commitment Fee”) for each day at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Percentage for such Borrower for the Commitment Fee for such day. The Commitment Fee shall accrue from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the last day of the applicable Availability Period on the amount by which such Borrower’s Sublimit exceeds the Borrower Revolving Outstandings of such Borrower (solely for this purpose, exclusive of outstanding Swingline Loans made to such Borrower) on such day. The Commitment Fee shall be payable on the last day of each of March, June, September and December and on the applicable Termination Date. (b) Letter of Credit Fees. Each Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent a fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) for each day at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Percentage for such Borrower for the Letter of Credit Fee for such day. The Letter of Credit Fee shall accrue from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the last day of the applicable Availability Period on the aggregate amount available for drawing under any Letters of Credit issued for the account of such Borrower outstanding on such day and shall be payable for the account of the Lenders ratably in proportion to their participations in such Letter(s) of Credit. In addition, each Borrower shall pay to each Issuing Lender a fee

35 (the “Fronting Fee”) in respect of each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender for the account of such Borrower computed at the rate of 0.20% per annum on the average amount available for drawing under such Letter(s) of Credit. Fronting Fees shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on each Quarterly Date and on the applicable Termination Date (or such earlier date as all Letters of Credit shall be canceled or expire). In addition, each Borrower agrees to pay to each Issuing Lender, upon each issuance of, payment under, and/or amendment of, a Letter of Credit issued for the account of such Borrower, such amount as shall at the time of such issuance, payment or amendment be the administrative charges and expenses which such Issuing Lender is customarily charging for issuances of, payments under, or amendments to letters of credit issued by it. (c) Payments. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 2.07, accrued fees under this Section 2.07 in respect of Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities shall be payable quarterly in arrears on each Quarterly Date, on the last day of the applicable Availability Period and, if later, on the date the Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities shall be repaid in their entirety. Fees paid hereunder shall not be refundable under any circumstances. Section 2.08 Adjustments of Commitments. (a) Optional Termination or Reductions of Commitments (Pro-Rata). The Company, the Guarantor or each Designated Borrower may, upon at least three Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, permanently (i) terminate the Commitments, if there are no Revolving Outstandings at such time or (ii) ratably reduce from time to time by a minimum amount of $10,000,000 or any larger integral multiple of $5,000,000, the aggregate amount of the Commitments in excess of the aggregate Revolving Outstandings. Upon receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders. Any such reduction shall have the effect of reducing each Borrower’s Sublimit in an amount as designated by the Company, the Guarantor or each applicable Designated Borrower; provided that (x) no Sublimit of a Borrower shall be reduced to an amount less than (1) the Borrower Revolving Outstandings of such Borrower or (2) such Borrower’s Minimum Sublimit and (y) after giving effect to such reduction, the aggregate Sublimits must not exceed the aggregate amount of Commitments. If the Commitments are terminated in their entirety, all accrued fees shall be payable on the effective date of such termination. (b) Replacement of Lenders; Optional Termination of Commitments (Non-Pro-Rata). If (i) any Lender has demanded compensation or indemnification pursuant to Sections 2.14, 2.16 or 2.17, (ii) the obligation of any Lender to make Term SOFR Loans has been suspended pursuant to Section 2.14 or (iii) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender (each such Lender described in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) being a “Retiring Lender”), the Borrowers shall have the right, if no Default then exists, to replace such Lender with one or more Eligible Assignees (which may be one or more of the Continuing Lenders) (each a “Replacement Lender” and, collectively, the “Replacement Lenders”) reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent. The replacement of a Retiring Lender pursuant to this Section 2.08(b) shall be effective on the tenth Business Day (the “Replacement Date”) following the date of notice given by the Borrowers of such replacement to the Retiring Lender and each Continuing Lender through the Administrative Agent, subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions: (i) the Replacement Lender shall have satisfied the conditions to assignment and assumption set forth in Section 9.06(c) (with all fees payable pursuant to Section 9.06(c) to be paid by the Borrowers in accordance with each such Borrower’s percentage by which such Borrower’s Sublimit bears to the amount of the total aggregate Commitments at such time) and, in connection therewith, the Replacement Lender(s) shall pay: (A) to the Retiring Lender an amount equal in the aggregate to the sum of (x) the principal of, and all accrued but unpaid interest on, all outstanding Loans of the Retiring

36 Lender, (y) all unpaid drawings that have been funded by (and not reimbursed to) the Retiring Lender under Section 3.10, together with all accrued but unpaid interest with respect thereto and (z) all accrued but unpaid fees owing to the Retiring Lender pursuant to Section 2.07; and (B) to the Swingline Lender an amount equal to the aggregate amount owing by the Retiring Lender to the Swingline Lender in respect of all unpaid refundings of Swingline Loans requested by the Swingline Lender pursuant to Section 2.02(b)(i), to the extent such amount was not theretofore funded by such Retiring Lender; and (C) to the Issuing Lenders an amount equal to the aggregate amount owing by the Retiring Lender to the Issuing Lenders as reimbursement pursuant to Section 3.09, to the extent such amount was not theretofore funded by such Retiring Lender; and (ii) each Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Retiring Lender an amount equal to all obligations owing to the Retiring Lender by such Borrower pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (other than those obligations of such Borrower referred to in clause (i)(A) above). On the Replacement Date, each Replacement Lender that is a New Lender shall become a Lender hereunder and shall succeed to the obligations of the Retiring Lender with respect to outstanding Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit to the extent of the Commitment of the Retiring Lender assumed by such Replacement Lender, and the Retiring Lender shall cease to constitute a Lender hereunder; provided, that the provisions of Sections 2.12, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 of this Agreement shall continue to inure to the benefit of a Retiring Lender with respect to any Loans made, any Letters of Credit issued or any other actions taken by such Retiring Lender while it was a Lender. In lieu of the foregoing, subject to Section 2.08(e), upon express written consent of Continuing Lenders holding more than 50% of the aggregate amount of the Commitments of the Continuing Lenders, the Borrowers shall have the right to permanently terminate the Commitment of a Retiring Lender in full. Upon payment by each Borrower to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Retiring Lender of an amount equal to the sum of (i) the aggregate principal amount of all Loans and Reimbursement Obligations owed by such Borrower to the Retiring Lender and (ii) all accrued interest, fees and other amounts owing by such Borrower to the Retiring Lender hereunder, including, without limitation, all amounts payable by such Borrower to the Retiring Lender under Sections 2.12, 2.16, 2.17 or 9.03, such Retiring Lender shall cease to constitute a Lender hereunder; provided, that the provisions of Sections 2.12, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of a Retiring Lender with respect to any Loans made, any Letters of Credit issued or any other actions taken by such Retiring Lender while it was a Lender. (c) Optional Termination of Defaulting Lender Commitment (Non-Pro-Rata). At any time a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, subject to Section 2.08(e), the Borrowers may terminate in full the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender by giving notice to such Defaulting Lender and the Administrative Agent, provided, that, (i) at the time of such termination, (A) no Default has occurred and is continuing (or alternatively, the Required Lenders shall consent to such termination) and (B) either (x) no Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans are outstanding or (y) the aggregate Revolving Outstandings of such Defaulting Lender in respect of Revolving Loans is zero; (ii) concurrently with such termination, the aggregate Commitments shall be reduced by the Commitment of the Defaulting Lender; and (iii) concurrently with any subsequent payment of interest or fees to the Lenders with respect to any period before the termination of a Defaulting Lender’s Commitment, each Borrower (or the applicable Borrower, as the case may be) shall pay to such Defaulting Lender its ratable share (based on its Commitment Ratio before giving effect to such termination) of such interest or fees, as applicable, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

37 The termination of a Defaulting Lender’s Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.08(c) shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any right that any Borrower, Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any other Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender. (d) Termination Date; Optional Extensions. (i) (x) The 2026 Revolving Commitments shall terminate on the 2026 Termination Date and (y) the 2027 Revolving Commitments shall terminate on the 2027 Termination Date. (ii) Following the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date, the Borrowers may, by sending an Extension Letter to the Administrative Agent (in which case the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the applicable Lenders), not less than thirty (30) nor more than ninety (90) days prior to each anniversary of the Effective Date (such anniversary, the “Extension Date”) request, but on not more than two occasions during the term of the revolving credit facilities hereunder, that the applicable Lenders extend the 2026 Termination Date or 2027 Termination Date then in effect (the “Current Termination Date”) so that it will occur up to one year after the applicable Current Termination Date. Each applicable Lender, acting in its sole discretion, may, by notice to the Administrative Agent given no later than fifteen (15) days prior to each anniversary of the Effective Date, as applicable (the “Election Date”), advise the Administrative Agent in writing whether or not it agrees to such extension with respect to its applicable Commitments (each Lender to respond negatively to such request being referred to herein as a “Non-Extending Lender”); provided, that, any Lender not responding to such request within such time period shall be deemed to be a Non-Extending Lender. The election of any Lender to agree to such extension shall not obligate any other Lender to agree. (iii) (A)(1) with respect to an extension of the 2026 Revolving Commitments, if Lenders holding 2026 Revolving Commitments that aggregate at least 51% of the aggregate 2026 Revolving Commitments of the 2026 Revolving Lenders on or prior to the Election Date shall not have agreed to extend the 2026 Termination Date, then the Current Termination Date shall not be so extended and the outstanding principal balance of all loans and other amounts payable hereunder shall be due and payable on the Current Termination Date and (2) with respect to an extension of the 2027 Revolving Commitments, if Lenders holding 2027 Revolving Commitments that aggregate at least 51% of the aggregate 2027 Revolving Commitments of the 2027 Revolving Lenders on or prior to the Election Date shall not have agreed to extend the 2027 Termination Date, then the Current Termination Date shall not be so extended and the outstanding principal balance of all loans and other amounts payable hereunder shall be due and payable on the Current Termination Date . (B)(1) with respect to an extension of the 2026 Revolving Commitments, if (and only if) Lenders holding 2026 Revolving Commitments that aggregate at least 51% of the aggregate 2026 Revolving Commitments of the 2026 Revolving Lenders on or prior to the Election Date shall have agreed to extend the Current Termination Date, then the Termination Date applicable to the 2026 Revolving Lenders that are Extending Lenders shall, as of the Extension Date, be the day that is one year after the Current Termination Date and (2) with respect to an extension of the 2027 Revolving Commitments, if (and only if) Lenders holding 2027 Revolving Commitments that aggregate at least 51% of the aggregate 2027 Revolving Commitments of the 2027 Revolving Lenders on or prior to the Election Date shall have agreed to extend the Current Termination Date, then the Termination Date applicable to the 2027 Revolving Lenders that are Extending Lenders shall, as of the Extension Date, be the day that is one year after the Current Termination Date. In the event of such extension, the Commitment of each Non-Extending Lender shall terminate on the Current Termination Date applicable to such Non-Extending Lender, all Loans and other amounts payable hereunder to such Non-Extending Lender shall become due and payable on such Current Termination Date and the aggregate Commitments of the Lenders

38 hereunder shall be reduced by the aggregate Commitments of Non-Extending Lenders so terminated on and after such Current Termination Date. Each Non-Extending Lender shall be required to maintain its original Commitment up to the Termination Date, or Current Termination Date, as applicable, to which such Non-Extending Lender had previously agreed. (iv) In the event that the conditions of clause (B) of paragraph (iii) above have been satisfied, the Borrowers shall have the right on or before the applicable Extension Date, at its own expense, to require any Non-Extending Lender to transfer and assign without recourse or representation (except as to title and the absence of Liens created by it) (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.06(c)) all its interests, rights and obligations under the Loan Documents (including with respect to any Letter of Credit Liabilities) to one or more Eligible Assignees (which may include any Lender) (each, an “Additional Commitment Lender”), provided, that (x) such Additional Commitment Lender, if not already a Lender hereunder, shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Lenders (not to be unreasonably withheld), (y) such assignment shall become effective as of the applicable Extension Date and (z) the Additional Commitment Lender shall pay to such Non-Extending Lender in immediately available funds on the effective date of such assignment the principal of and interest accrued to the date of payment on the Loans made by such Non-Extending Lender hereunder and all other amounts accrued for such Non-Extending Lender’s account or owed to it hereunder. (v) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no extension of the Termination Date shall become effective unless, on the applicable Extension Date, (i) the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 shall be satisfied (with all references in such paragraphs to the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit being deemed to be references to the extension of the Commitments on the Extension Date), (ii) any necessary governmental, regulatory and third party approvals required to authorize the extension of the applicable Termination Date shall be in full force and effect, in each case without any action being taken by any competent authority which could restrain or prevent such transaction or impose, in the reasonable judgment of the Administrative Agent, materially adverse conditions upon the consummation of the extension of the applicable Termination Date and (iii) the Administrative Agent shall have received (a) a certificate to that effect, with any necessary governmental, regulatory or third party approvals, if any, attached thereto, dated the applicable Extension Date and executed by an Authorized Officer of each Borrower and (b) opinions of counsel for each of the Loan Parties, addressed to the Administrative Agent and each Lender, dated the applicable Extension Date, in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. (e) Redetermination of Commitment Ratios. On the date of termination of the Commitment of a Retiring Lender or Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.08(b) or (c), or, if the applicable Termination Date has been extended pursuant to Section 2.08(d) with respect to some, but not all, 2026 Revolving Lenders or 2027 Revolving Lenders, as applicable, the date on which the applicable Current Termination Date with respect to Non-Extending Lenders occurs, the Commitment Ratios of the Continuing Lenders or the Extending Lenders, as applicable, shall be redetermined after giving effect thereto, and the participations of the Continuing Lenders or the Extending Lenders, as applicable, in and obligations of the Continuing Lenders or Extending Lenders, as applicable, in respect of any then outstanding Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit shall thereafter be based upon such redetermined Commitment Ratios (as adjusted pursuant to Sections 2.19 and 2.20). The right of the Borrowers to effect such a termination pursuant to Section 2.08(b) or (c) is conditioned on there being sufficient unused availability in the Commitments of the Continuing Lenders such that the aggregate Revolving Outstandings will not exceed the aggregate Commitments after giving effect to such termination and redetermination. (f) Changes to Sublimits.

39 (i) The Borrowers and the Guarantor may collectively, upon not less than three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, reallocate amounts of the Commitments among the respective Sublimits of the Borrowers (i.e., reduce the Sublimit of one Borrower and increase the Sublimit of the other Borrower by the same aggregate amount); provided (i) each Sublimit shall be a multiple of $5,000,000 at all times, (ii) a Borrower’s Sublimit may not be reduced to an amount less than the Borrower Revolving Outstandings of such Borrower, (iii) a Borrower’s Sublimit may not be increased to an amount greater than its Maximum Sublimit and a Borrower’s Sublimit may not be decreased to an amount less than its Minimum Sublimit, (iv) the sum of the Sublimits of the respective Borrowers shall at all times equal the aggregate amount of the Commitments and (v) any such increase in a Borrower’s Sublimit shall be accompanied or preceded by evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent as to appropriate corporate authorization therefor. (ii) A Borrower may, upon not less than three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, reduce or increase its Maximum Sublimit or Minimum Sublimit if such modification is required or requested by any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over such Borrower, or otherwise required by any authorization, consent or approval of any Governmental Authority, to the amount so requested or required by such Governmental Authority; provided that any such reduction or increase in a Borrower’s Maximum Sublimit or Minimum Sublimit shall be accompanied or preceded by evidence of the applicable Governmental Authority’s request or order therefor. (iii) On the 2026 Termination Date, each Borrower’s Sublimit shall be reduced on a pro rata basis by the amount of 2026 Revolving Commitments terminated pursuant to Section 2.08(d)(i); provided that, if after giving effect to such reduction in each Borrower’s Sublimit pursuant to this Section 2.08(f)(iii), the Borrower Revolving Outstandings of any Borrower exceeds such Borrower’s Sublimit, the applicable Borrower shall immediately prepay the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans, such that the applicable Borrower Revolving Outstandings no longer exceeds such applicable Borrower’s Sublimit. Section 2.09 Maturity of Loans; Mandatory Prepayments. (a) Scheduled Repayments and Prepayments of Loans; Overline Repayments. (i) (1) The 2026 Revolving Loans shall mature on the 2026 Termination Date, and any 2026 Revolving Loans then outstanding (together with accrued interest thereon and fees in respect thereof) shall be due and payable and (2) the 2027 Revolving Loans shall mature on the 2027 Termination Date, and any 2027 Revolving Loans, Swingline Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities then outstanding (together with accrued interest thereon and fees in respect thereof) shall be due and payable or, in the case of Letters of Credit, cash collateralized pursuant to Section 2.09(a)(ii), on the 2027 Termination Date. (ii) If on any date (i) the aggregate 2026 Revolving Outstandings exceed the aggregate amount of the 2026 Revolving Commitments (such excess, a “2026 Revolving Outstandings Excess”), (ii) the aggregate 2027 Revolving Outstandings exceed the aggregate amount of the 2027 Revolving Commitments (such excess, a “2027 Revolving Outstandings Excess”) or (iii) the Borrower Revolving Outstandings of any Borrower exceed such Borrower’s Sublimit (such excess in each case, a “Borrower Revolving Outstandings Excess”), the applicable Borrower shall prepay, and there shall become due and payable (together with accrued interest thereon) on such date, an aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans and/or Swingline Loans equal to such Revolving Outstandings Excess. If, at a time when a Revolving Outstandings Excess exists and (x) no Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans are outstanding or (y) the Commitment has been terminated

40 pursuant to this Agreement and, in either case, any Letter of Credit Liabilities remain outstanding, then, in either case, each Borrower shall cash collateralize any Letter of Credit Liabilities attributable to Letters of Credit issued for the account of such Borrower by depositing into a cash collateral account established and maintained (including the investments made pursuant thereto) by the Administrative Agent pursuant to a cash collateral agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent an amount in cash equal to the then outstanding Letter of Credit Liabilities. In determining Revolving Outstandings for purposes of this clause (ii), Letter of Credit Liabilities shall be reduced to the extent that they are cash collateralized as contemplated by this Section 2.09(a)(ii). (b) Applications of Prepayments and Reductions. (i) (1) Each payment or prepayment of 2026 Revolving Loans pursuant to this Section 2.09 shall be applied ratably to the respective 2026 Revolving Loans of all of the 2026 Revolving Lenders and (2) each payment or prepayment of 2027 Revolving Loans pursuant to this Section 2.09 shall be applied ratably to the respective 2027 Revolving Loans of all of the 2027 Revolving Lenders. (ii) Each payment of principal of the Loans shall be made together with interest accrued on the amount repaid to the date of payment. (iii) Each payment of the Loans shall be applied to such Groups of Loans as the applicable Borrower may designate (or, failing such designation, as determined by the Administrative Agent). Section 2.10 Optional Prepayments and Repayments. (a) Prepayments of Loans. Other than in respect of Swingline Loans, the repayment of which is governed pursuant to Section 2.02(b), subject to Section 2.12, each Borrower may (i) upon at least one (1) Business Day’s notice to the Administrative Agent, prepay any Base Rate Borrowing or (ii) upon at least three (3) Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, prepay any Term SOFR Borrowing, in each case in whole at any time, or from time to time in part in amounts aggregating $10,000,000 or any larger integral multiple of $1,000,000, by paying the principal amount to be prepaid together with accrued interest thereon to the date of prepayment. From the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date until the 2026 Termination Date, each such optional prepayment shall be applied to prepay ratably the 2026 Revolving Loans and the 2027 Revolving Loans and following the 2026 Termination Date, each such optional prepayment shall be applied to prepay ratably the 2027 Revolving Loans of the several 2027 Revolving Lenders. (b) Notice to Lenders. Upon receipt of a notice of prepayment pursuant to Section 2.10(a), the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the contents thereof and of such Lender’s ratable share (if any) of such prepayment, and such notice shall not thereafter be revocable by the applicable Borrower. Section 2.11 General Provisions as to Payments. (a) Payments by the Borrowers. Each Borrower shall make each payment of principal of and interest on the Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities and fees hereunder (other than fees payable directly to the Issuing Lenders), in each case, owing by such Borrower, not later than 12:00 Noon (Charlotte, North Carolina time) on the date when due, without set-off, counterclaim or other deduction, in Federal or other funds immediately available in Charlotte, North Carolina, to the Administrative Agent at its address referred

41 to in Section 9.01. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its ratable share of each such payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders. Whenever any payment of principal of or interest on the Base Rate Loans or Letter of Credit Liabilities or of fees shall be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the date for payment thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day. Whenever any payment of principal of or interest on the Term SOFR Loans shall be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the date for payment thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless such Business Day falls in another calendar month, in which case the date for payment thereof shall be the next preceding Business Day. If the date for any payment of principal is extended by operation of law or otherwise, interest thereon shall be payable for such extended time. (b) Distributions by the Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent that the applicable Borrower shall not have so made such payment, each Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate. Section 2.12 Funding Losses. If any Borrower makes any payment of principal with respect to any Term SOFR Loan pursuant to the terms and provisions of this Agreement (any conversion of a Term SOFR Loan to a Base Rate Loan pursuant to Section 2.18 being treated as a payment of such Term SOFR Loan on the date of conversion for purposes of this Section 2.12) on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, or the last day of an applicable period fixed pursuant to Section 2.06(c), or if any Borrower fails to borrow, convert or prepay any Term SOFR Loan after notice has been given in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, or in the event of payment in respect of any Term SOFR Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the applicable Borrower pursuant to Section 2.08(b), such Borrower shall reimburse each Lender within fifteen (15) days after demand for any resulting loss or expense incurred by it (and by an existing Participant in the related Loan), including, without limitation, any loss incurred in obtaining, liquidating or employing deposits from third parties, but excluding loss of margin for the period after any such payment or failure to borrow or prepay; provided, that such Lender shall have delivered to such Borrower a certificate as to the amount of such loss or expense, which certificate shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Section 2.13 Computation of Interest and Fees. Interest on Loans based on the Prime Rate hereunder and Letter of Credit Fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year) and paid for the actual number of days elapsed. All other interest and fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and paid for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). Section 2.14 Basis for Determining Interest Rate Inadequate, Unfair or Unavailable. (a) Circumstances Affecting Benchmark Availability. Subject to clause (c) below, in connection with any request for a Term SOFR Loan, Swingline Loan, a conversion to or a continuation thereof or otherwise, if for any reason (i) the Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that reasonable and adequate means do not exist for ascertaining Term SOFR or Adjusted Term SOFR, for the applicable Interest Period with respect to a proposed Term SOFR Loan or Swingline Loan on or prior to the first day of such Interest Period or (ii) the Required Lenders shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest

42 error) that Term SOFR or Adjusted Term SOFR does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining such Loans during the applicable Interest Period and the Required Lenders have provided notice of such determination to the Administrative Agent, then, in each case, the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to the Borrowers. Upon notice thereof by the Administrative Agent to the Borrowers, any obligation of the Lenders to make Term SOFR Loans or Swingline Loans, and any right of the Borrowers to convert or continue any Loan as a Term SOFR Loan, shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Interest Periods) until the Administrative Agent (with respect to clause (ii), at the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, (A) the Borrowers may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term SOFR Loans or Swingline Loans (to the extent of the affected Interest Periods) or, failing that, in the case of any request for a borrowing of an affected Term SOFR Loan or Swingline Loan, the Borrowers will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein and (B) any outstanding affected Term SOFR Loans or Swingline Loans will be deemed to have been converted into Base Rate Loans at the end of the applicable Interest Period. Upon any such conversion, the Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so converted, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 9.03. (b) Laws Affecting Benchmark Availability. If, after the date hereof, the introduction of, or any change in, any Applicable Law or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any of the Lenders (or any of their respective Lending Offices) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, shall make it unlawful or impossible for any of the Lenders (or any of their respective Lending Offices) to honor its obligations hereunder to make or maintain any Term SOFR Loan, or to determine or charge interest based upon the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Term SOFR or Adjusted Term SOFR, such Lender shall promptly give notice thereof to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice to the Borrowers and the other Lenders (an “Illegality Notice”). Thereafter, until each affected Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist, (i) any obligation of the Lenders to make Term SOFR Loans or Swingline Loans for the affected Interest Period, and any right of the Borrowers to convert any Loan to a Term SOFR Loan or continue any Loan as a Term SOFR Loan for the affected Interest Period shall be suspended and (ii) if necessary to avoid such illegality, the Administrative Agent shall compute the Base Rate without reference to clause (c) of the definition of “Base Rate”. Upon receipt of an Illegality Notice, the Borrowers shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, upon demand from any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all Term SOFR Loans or Swingline Loans to Base Rate Loans (if necessary to avoid such illegality, the Administrative Agent shall compute the Base Rate without reference to clause (c) of the definition of “Base Rate”), on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if all affected Lenders may lawfully continue to maintain such Term SOFR Loans or Swingline Loans to such day, or immediately, if any Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Term SOFR Loans or Swingline Loans to such day. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 9.03. (c) Benchmark Replacement Setting. (i) Benchmark Replacement. (A) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event with respect to any Benchmark, the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers may amend this Agreement to replace such Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement. Any such amendment with

43 respect to a Benchmark Transition Event will become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Administrative Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all affected Lenders and the Borrowers so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such amendment from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. No replacement of a Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this Section 2.14(c)(i)(A) will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date. (ii) Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in 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. (iii) Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrowers and the Lenders of (A) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement and (B) the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrowers of the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to Section 2.14(c)(iv) below. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 2.14(c), including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.14(c). (iv) 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), (A) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including the Term SOFR Reference Rate) and either (1) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (2) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Xxxxxxxxx has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is not or will not be representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (B) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (A) above either (1) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (2) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is not or will not be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor. (v) Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrowers’ receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, (A) each Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term SOFR Loans or Swingline Loans, in each case, to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and,

44 failing that, each Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein and (B) any outstanding affected Term SOFR Loans or Swingline Loans, if applicable, will be deemed to have been converted into Base Rate Loans at the end of the applicable Interest Period. Upon any such conversion, each Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so converted, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 9.03. During a Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of the Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of Base Rate. Section 2.15 [Reserved]. Section 2.16 Increased Cost and Reduced Return. (a) Increased Costs. If after the Effective Date, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency shall (i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including, without limitation, any such requirement imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), special deposit, insurance assessment or similar requirement against Letters of Credit issued or participated in by, assets of, deposits with or for the account of or credit extended by, any Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office), (ii) subject any Lender or the Issuing Lender to any Tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any participation in a Letter of Credit or any Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender or the Issuing Lender in respect thereof (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Other Taxes, (C) the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any Taxes described in clause (i)(a) and clauses (ii) through (iv) of the definition of Indemnified Taxes in Section 2.17(a), (D) Connection Income Taxes, and (E) Taxes attributable to a Lender’s or an Issuing Lender’s failure to comply with Section 2.17(e)) or (iii) impose on any Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) or on the United States market for certificates of deposit any other condition affecting its Term SOFR Loans, SOFR Market Index Rate Loans, Notes, obligation to make Term SOFR Loans or SOFR Market Index Rate Loans or obligations hereunder in respect of Letters of Credit, and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) of making or maintaining any Term SOFR Loan or SOFR Market Index Rate Loan, or of issuing or participating in any Letter of Credit, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) under this Agreement or under its Notes with respect thereto, then, within fifteen (15) days after demand by such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrowers (pro rata in accordance with their respective applicable Sublimits), or to the extent attributable to a particular Borrower, such Borrower, shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts, as determined by such Lender in good faith, as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction, solely to the extent that any such additional amounts were incurred by the Lender within ninety (90) days of such demand. (b) Capital Adequacy. If any Lender shall have determined that, after the Effective Date, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy or liquidity, or any change in any such law, rule or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of such Lender (or any Person controlling such Lender) as a consequence of such Xxxxxx’s obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender (or any Person

45 controlling such Lender) could have achieved but for such adoption, change, request or directive (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time, within fifteen (15) days after demand by such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrowers (pro rata in accordance with their respective applicable Sublimits), or to the extent attributable to a particular Borrower, such Borrower, shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender (or any Person controlling such Lender) for such reduction, solely to the extent that any such additional amounts were incurred by the Lender within ninety (90) days of such demand. (c) Notices. Each Lender will promptly notify each Borrower and the Administrative Agent of any event of which it has knowledge, occurring after the Effective Date, that will entitle such Lender to compensation pursuant to this Section and will designate a different Applicable Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not, in the judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. A certificate of any Lender claiming compensation under this Section and setting forth in reasonable detail the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (x) the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (y) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a “change in law” under this Article II regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued. Section 2.17 Taxes. (a) Payments Net of Certain Taxes. Any and all payments made by or on account of any Loan Party to or for the account of any Lender or any Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all Taxes, excluding: (i) Taxes imposed on or measured by the net income (including branch profits or similar Taxes) of, and gross receipts, franchise or similar Taxes imposed on, any Agent or any Lender (a) by the jurisdiction (or subdivision thereof) under the laws of which such Lender or Agent is organized or in which its principal office is located or, in the case of each Lender, in which its Applicable Lending Office is located or (b) that are Other Connection Taxes, (ii) in the case of each Lender, any United States withholding Tax imposed on such payments, but only to the extent that such Lender is subject to United States withholding Tax at the time such Lender first becomes a party to this Agreement or changes its Applicable Lending Office (other than pursuant to an assignment request by any Loan Party under Section 2.08(b) or (d)), (iii) any backup withholding Tax imposed by the United States (or any state or locality thereof) on a Lender or Administrative Agent, and (iv) any Taxes imposed by FATCA (all such nonexcluded Taxes being hereinafter referred to as “Indemnified Taxes”). If any Loan Party shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document to any Lender or any Agent, (i) if the Tax represents an Indemnified Tax, the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all such required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.17(a)) such Lender or Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Loan Party shall make such deductions, (iii) such Loan Party shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and (iv) such Loan Party shall furnish to the Administrative Agent, for delivery to such Lender, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof.

46 (b) Other Taxes. In addition, each Applicable Loan Party agrees to pay any and all present or future stamp or court or documentary Taxes and any other excise or property Taxes, which arise from any payment made by such Applicable Loan Party pursuant to this Agreement, any Note or any other Loan Document or from the execution, delivery, performance, registration or enforcement of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement, any Note or any other Loan Document, except any such Taxes that are Other Connection Taxes imposed with respect to an assignment (other than an assignment pursuant to Section 2.08(b) or (d)) (collectively, “Other Taxes”). (c) Indemnification. Each Applicable Loan Party agrees to, severally and not jointly, indemnify each Lender and each Agent for the full amount of Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.17(c)) applicable to such Applicable Loan Party, whether or not correctly or legally asserted, paid by such Lender or Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto as certified in good faith to the applicable Borrower by each Lender or Agent seeking indemnification pursuant to this Section 2.17(c). This indemnification shall be paid within 15 days after such Lender or Agent (as the case may be) makes demand therefor. (d) Refunds or Credits. If a Lender or Agent receives a refund, credit or other reduction from a taxation authority for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes for which it has been indemnified by any Loan Party or with respect to which any Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17, it shall within fifteen (15) days from the date of such receipt pay over the amount of such refund, credit or other reduction to the applicable Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made or additional amounts paid by the Loan Parties under this Section 2.17 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund, credit or other reduction), net of all reasonable out-of- pocket expenses of such Lender or Agent (as the case may be) and without interest (other than interest paid by the relevant taxation authority with respect to such refund, credit or other reduction); provided, however, that each Applicable Loan Party agrees to repay, upon the request of such Lender or Agent (as the case may be), the amount paid over to the applicable Borrower (plus penalties, interest or other charges) to such Lender or Agent in the event such Lender or Agent is required to repay such refund or credit to such taxation authority. (e) Tax Forms and Certificates. On or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement, from time to time thereafter if reasonably requested by any Borrower or the Administrative Agent, and at any time it changes its Applicable Lending Office: (i) each Lender that is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code shall deliver to such Borrower and the Administrative Agent two (2) properly completed and duly executed copy of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, or any successor form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, or such other documentation or information prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by such Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, certifying that such Lender is a United States person and is entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding Tax or information reporting requirements; and (ii) each Lender that is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to such Borrower and the Administrative Agent: (A) two (2) properly completed and duly executed copy of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W- 8BEN-E, or any successor form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, (x) certifying that such Non- U.S. Lender is entitled to the benefits under an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party which exempts the Non-U.S. Lender from United States withholding Tax or reduces the rate of withholding Tax on payments of interest for the account of such Non-U.S. Lender and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under or entered into in connection with any Loan Document establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, United States withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty; (B) two (2) properly completed and duly executed copy of Internal Revenue Service Form

47 W-8ECI, or any successor form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, certifying that the income receivable pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States; (C) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 871(h) or Section 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, two (2) properly completed and duly executed copy of Internal Revenue Service Form W- 8BEN or W-8BEN-E, or any successor form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, together with a certificate to the effect that (x) such Non-U.S. Lender is not (1) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code, (2) a “10-percent shareholder” of any Loan Party within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code, or (3) a “controlled foreign corporation” that is described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Internal Revenue Code and is related to any Loan Party within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code and (y) the interest payments in question are not effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business conducted by such Non- U.S. Lender; or (D) to the extent the Non-U.S. Lender is not the beneficial owner, one (1) properly completed and duly executed copy of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY, or any successor form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, accompanied by an Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable. 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 fails to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the applicable Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Loan Parties 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. For purposes of determining withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall treat (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to treat) this Agreement and any Loan or Letter of Credit issued under or pursuant to this Agreement as not qualifying as a “grandfathered obligation” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i). Solely for purposes of this clause (e), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. In addition, each Lender agrees that from time to time after the Effective Date, when a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders the previous certification obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, it will deliver to the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent two new accurate and complete signed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, W-8ECI or W-8IMY or FATCA-related documentation described above, or successor forms, as the case may be, and such other forms as may be required in order to confirm or establish the entitlement of such Lender to a continued exemption from or reduction in United States withholding Tax with respect to payments under this Agreement and any other Loan Document, or it shall immediately notify the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent of its inability to deliver any such form or certificate. (f) Exclusions. No Loan Party shall be required to indemnify any Non-U.S. Lender, or to pay any additional amount to any Non-U.S. Lender, pursuant to Section 2.17(a), (b) or (c) in respect of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes to the extent that the obligation to indemnify or pay such additional amounts would not have arisen but for the failure of such Non-U.S. Lender to comply with the provisions of subsection (e) above. (g) Mitigation. If any Loan Party is required to pay additional amounts to or for the account of any Lender pursuant to this Section 2.17, then such Lender will use reasonable efforts (which shall include efforts to rebook the Revolving Loans held by such Lender to a new Applicable Lending Office, or

48 through another branch or affiliate of such Lender) to change the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office if, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, such efforts (i) will eliminate or, if it is not possible to eliminate, reduce to the greatest extent possible any such additional payment which may thereafter accrue and (ii) is not otherwise disadvantageous, in the sole determination of such Lender, to such Lender. Any Lender claiming any indemnity payment or additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section shall use reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to deliver to the applicable Borrower any certificate or document reasonably requested in writing by the applicable Borrower or to change the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office if the making of such a filing or change would avoid the need for or reduce the amount of any such indemnity payment or additional amounts that may thereafter accrue and would not, in the sole determination of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. (h) Confidentiality. Nothing contained in this Section shall require any Lender or any Agent to make available any of its tax returns (or any other information that it deems to be confidential or proprietary). Section 2.18 Base Rate Loans Substituted for Affected Term SOFR Loans. If (a) [reserved] or (b) any Lender has demanded compensation under Section 2.16(a) with respect to its Term SOFR Loans and, in any such case, the applicable Borrower shall, by at least four Business Days’ prior notice to such Lender through the Administrative Agent, have elected that the provisions of this Section shall apply to such Lender, then, unless and until such Lender notifies such Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension or demand for compensation no longer apply: (i) all Loans which would otherwise be made by such Lender as (or continued as or converted into) Term SOFR Loans shall instead be Base Rate Loans (on which interest and principal shall be payable contemporaneously with the related Term SOFR Loans of the other Lenders); and (ii) after each of its Term SOFR Loans has been repaid, all payments of principal that would otherwise be applied to repay such Loans shall instead be applied to repay its Base Rate Loans. If such Lender notifies the applicable Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer apply, the principal amount of each such Base Rate Loan shall be converted into a Term SOFR Loan on the first day of the next succeeding Interest Period applicable to the related Term SOFR Loans of the other Lenders. Section 2.19 Increases in Commitments. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, on and from the Effective Date, the Borrowers may, by delivering to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders a Notice of Revolving Increase in the form of Exhibit E, request increases to the Lenders’ Commitments (each such request, an “Optional Increase”); provided that: (i) the Borrowers may not request any increase to the Commitments after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default; (ii) each Optional Increase shall be in a minimum amount of $50,000,000 and (iii) the aggregate amount of all Optional Increases shall be no more than the Accordion Amount. (b) Each Lender may, but shall not be obligated to, participate in any Optional Increase, subject to the approval of each Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld), and the decision of any Lender to commit to an Optional Increase shall be at such Xxxxxx’s sole discretion and shall be made in writing. The Borrowers may, at their own expense, solicit additional Commitments from third party financial institutions reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, the

49 Swingline Lender and the Issuing Lenders. Any such financial institution (if not already a Lender hereunder) shall become a party to this Agreement as a Lender, pursuant to a joinder agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers. (c) As a condition precedent to the Optional Increase, the Loan Parties shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of the Loan Parties dated the effective date of the Optional Increase, signed by Authorized Officers of each Loan Party, certifying that: (i) the resolutions adopted by each Loan Party approving or consenting to such Optional Increase are attached thereto and such resolutions are true and correct and have not been altered, amended or repealed and are in full force and effect, (ii) before and after giving effect to the Optional Increase, (A) the representations and warranties contained in Article V and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects (except to the extent any such representation and warranty is qualified by materiality or reference to Material Adverse Effect, in which case, such representation and warranty shall be true and correct in all respects) on and as of the effective date of the Optional Increase, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they were true and correct in all material respects (except to the extent any such representation and warranty was qualified by materiality or reference to Material Adverse Effect, in which case, such representation and warranty was true and correct in all respects) as of such earlier date, and (B) that no Default exists, is continuing, or would result from the Optional Increase and (iii) any necessary governmental, regulatory and third party approvals required to approve the Optional Increase, are attached thereto and remain in full force and effect, in each case without any action being taken by any competent authority which could restrain or prevent such transaction or impose, in the reasonable judgment of the Administrative Agent, materially adverse conditions upon the consummation of the Optional Increase. (d) The Revolving Outstandings will be reallocated by the Administrative Agent on the effective date of any Optional Increase among the Lenders in accordance with their revised Commitment Ratios, and the applicable Borrower hereby agrees to pay any and all costs (if any) required pursuant to Section 2.12 incurred by any Lender in connection with the exercise of the Optional Increase. Each of the Lenders shall participate in any new Loans made on or after such date in accordance with their respective Commitment Ratios after giving effect to the increase in Commitments contemplated by this Section 2.19. (e) In connection with any increase in the aggregate amount of the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.19, the respective Sublimits of each Borrower shall be increased by an equal aggregate amount as the Borrowers may direct by notice to the Administrative Agent, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.08(f); provided that a Borrower’s Sublimit shall at no time exceed such Borrower’s Maximum Sublimit. Section 2.20 Defaulting Lenders. (a) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender: (i) fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.07(a); (ii) with respect to any Letter of Credit Liabilities or Swingline Exposure of such Defaulting Lender that exists at the time a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or thereafter: (A) all or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Liabilities and its Swingline Exposure shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in

50 accordance with their respective Commitment Ratios (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that (x) the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 are satisfied at such time and (y) such reallocation does not cause the Revolving Outstandings of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment; (B) if the reallocation described in clause (ii)(A) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, each Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender, in its discretion may require the applicable Borrower to (i) reimburse all amounts paid by an Issuing Lender upon any drawing under a Letter of Credit issued for its account, (ii) repay an outstanding Swingline Loan made to it, and/or (iii) cash collateralize (in accordance with Section 2.09(a)(ii)) all obligations of such Defaulting Lender in respect of outstanding Letters of Credit issued for its account and Swingline Loans made to it, in each case, in an amount at least equal to the aggregate amount of the obligations (contingent or otherwise) of such Defaulting Lender in respect of such Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to Section 2.20(a)(ii)(A) above); (iii) if the applicable Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s pursuant to Section 2.20(a)(ii)(B) then such Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.07(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Liabilities during the period such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Liabilities are cash collateralized; (iv) if the Letter of Credit Liabilities and/or Swingline Exposure of the Non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to Section 2.20(a)(ii)(A) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.07(a) and Section 2.07(b) shall be adjusted in accordance with such Non- Defaulting Lenders’ Commitment Ratios (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment); and (v) if any Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Liabilities and/or Swingline Exposure is neither reimbursed, repaid, cash collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to this Section 2.20(a)(ii), then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Lenders, the Swingline Lender or any other Lender hereunder, all fees that otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Lender (solely with respect to the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment that was utilized by such Letter of Credit Liabilities and/or Swingline Exposure) and letter of credit fees payable under Section 2.07(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Liabilities shall be payable to the Issuing Lenders and the Swingline Lender, pro rata, until such Letter of Credit Liabilities and/or Swingline Exposure is cash collateralized, reallocated and/or repaid in full. (b) So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (i) no Issuing Lender shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure will be 100% covered by the Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the applicable Borrower in accordance with Section 2.20(a), and participating interests in any such newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among Non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 3.05 (and Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein) and (ii) the Swingline Lender shall not be required to advance any Swingline Loan, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure will be 100% covered by the Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Lenders.

51 ARTICLE III LETTERS OF CREDIT Section 3.01 Issuing Lenders. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Borrowers may from time to time identify and arrange for one or more of the Lenders (in addition to the JLA Issuing Banks) to act as Issuing Lenders hereunder. Any such designation by the Borrowers shall be notified to the Administrative Agent at least four Business Days prior to the first date upon which the Borrowers propose that such Issuing Lender issue its first Letter of Credit, so as to provide adequate time for such proposed Issuing Lender to be approved by the Administrative Agent hereunder (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld). Within two Business Days following the receipt of any such designation of a proposed Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers as to whether such designee is acceptable to the Administrative Agent. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to require any Lender (other than a JLA Issuing Bank) to agree to act as an Issuing Lender, if it does not so desire. Section 3.02 Letters of Credit. (a) Letters of Credit. Each Issuing Lender agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to issue Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars from time to time before the fifth day prior to the 2027 Termination Date, for the account, and upon the request, of any Borrower and in support of such obligations of such Borrower or any Affiliate of such Borrower that are reasonably acceptable to such Issuing Lender; provided, that immediately after each Letter of Credit is issued, (A) the aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Liabilities shall not exceed the Aggregate LC Sublimit, (B) the aggregate Revolving Outstandings shall not exceed the aggregate amount of the Commitments and (C) the aggregate fronting exposure of any Issuing Lender shall not exceed its Fronting Sublimit. (b) If any Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Request, an 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 must 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 at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the applicable Issuing Lender, such Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the applicable Issuing Lender for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the 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 expiry date not later than five days prior to the Termination Date; provided, however, that no Issuing Lender shall 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 revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of Section 3.04 or otherwise), or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from the Administrative Agent that the Required Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (2) from the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the applicable Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.02 is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing such Issuing Lender not to permit such extension. Section 3.03 Method of Issuance of Letters of Credit. The applicable Borrower shall give an Issuing Lender notice substantially in the form of Exhibit A-3 to this Agreement (a “Letter of Credit Request”) of the requested issuance or extension of a Letter of Credit not later than 1:00 P.M. (Charlotte, North Carolina time) at least one Business Day prior to the proposed date of the issuance or extension of Letters of Credit (which shall be a Business Day) (or such shorter period as may be agreed by such Issuing Lender in any particular instance), specifying the date such Letter of Credit is to be issued or extended and

52 describing the terms of such Letter of Credit and the nature of the transactions to be supported thereby. The extension or renewal of any Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be an issuance of such Letter of Credit, and if any Letter of Credit contains a provision pursuant to which it is deemed to be extended unless notice of termination is given by an Issuing Lender, such Issuing Lender shall timely give such notice of termination unless it has theretofore timely received a Letter of Credit Request and the other conditions to issuance of a Letter of Credit have theretofore been met with respect to such extension. No Letter of Credit shall have a term of more than one year, provided, that no Letter of Credit shall have a term extending or be so extendible beyond the fifth Business Day before the Termination Date, provided that if the Commitments of some, but not all, Lenders shall have been extended pursuant to Section 2.08(d), the “Termination Date” for this purpose shall be the latest Termination Date which is applicable to Commitments aggregating at least to the Aggregate LC Sublimit. Section 3.04 Conditions to Issuance of Letters of Credit. The issuance by an Issuing Lender of each Letter of Credit shall, in addition to the conditions precedent set forth in Article IV, be subject to the conditions precedent that (a) such Letter of Credit shall be satisfactory in form and substance to such Issuing Lender, (b) the applicable Borrower and, if applicable, any such Affiliate of such Borrower, shall have executed and delivered such other instruments and agreements relating to such Letter of Credit as such Issuing Lender shall have reasonably requested and (c) such Issuing Lender shall have confirmed on the date of (and after giving effect to) such issuance that (i) the aggregate outstanding amount of Letter of Credit Liabilities shall not exceed the Aggregate LC Sublimit, (ii) the aggregate Revolving Outstandings will not exceed the aggregate amount of the Commitments, (iii) the Borrower Revolving Outstandings of any Borrower will not exceed such Borrower’s Sublimit and (iv) the aggregate fronting exposure of any Issuing Lender shall not exceed its Fronting Sublimit. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 3.04, no Issuing Lender shall be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if: any order, judgment or decree of any governmental authority shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Lender from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any requirement of law applicable to such Issuing Lender or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any governmental authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Lender shall prohibit, or request that such Issuing Lender refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Issuing Lender with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such Issuing Lender is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Effective Date, or shall impose upon such Issuing Lender any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Effective Date and which such Issuing Lender in good xxxxx xxxxx material to it. Section 3.05 Purchase and Sale of Letter of Credit Participations. Upon the issuance by an Issuing Lender of a Letter of Credit, such Issuing Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have sold to each Lender, and each Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have purchased from such Issuing Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided participation interest in such Letter of Credit and the related Letter of Credit Liabilities in accordance with its respective Commitment Ratio (although the Fronting Fee payable under Section 2.07(b) shall be payable directly to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender, and the Lenders (other than such Issuing Lender) shall have no right to receive any portion of any such Fronting Fee) and any security therefor or guaranty pertaining thereto. Section 3.06 Drawings under Letters of Credit. Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Lender shall determine in accordance with the terms of such Letter of Credit whether such drawing should be honored. If such Issuing Lender determines that any such drawing shall be honored, such Issuing Lender shall make available to such beneficiary in accordance with the terms of such Letter of Credit the amount of the drawing and shall notify the applicable Borrower as to the amount to be paid as a result of such drawing and the payment date.

53 Section 3.07 Reimbursement Obligations. Each Borrower shall be irrevocably and unconditionally obligated forthwith to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender for any amounts paid by such Issuing Lender upon any drawing under any Letter of Credit issued for the account of such Borrower, together with any and all reasonable charges and expenses which such Issuing Lender may pay or incur relative to such drawing and interest on the amount drawn at the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans for each day from and including the date such amount is drawn to but excluding the date such reimbursement payment is due and payable. Such reimbursement payment shall be due and payable (a) at or before 1:00 P.M. (Charlotte, North Carolina time) on the date the applicable Issuing Lender notifies such Borrower of such drawing, if such notice is given at or before 10:00 A.M. (Charlotte, North Carolina time) on such date or (b) at or before 10:00 A.M. (Charlotte, North Carolina time) on the next succeeding Business Day; provided, that no payment otherwise required by this sentence to be made by such Borrower at or before 1:00 P.M. (Charlotte, North Carolina time) on any day shall be overdue hereunder if arrangements for such payment satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Lender, in its reasonable discretion, shall have been made by such Borrower at or before 1:00 P.M. (Charlotte, North Carolina time) on such day and such payment is actually made at or before 3:00 P.M. (Charlotte, North Carolina time) on such day. In addition, such Borrower agrees to pay to the applicable Issuing Lender interest, payable on demand, on any and all amounts not paid by such Borrower to such Issuing Lender when due under this Section 3.07, for each day from and including the date when such amount becomes due to but excluding the date such amount is paid in full, whether before or after judgment, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of 2% plus the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans for such day. Each payment to be made by such Borrower pursuant to this Section 3.07 shall be made to the applicable Issuing Lender in Federal or other funds immediately available to it at its address referred to Section 9.01. Section 3.08 Duties of Issuing Lenders to Lenders; Reliance. In determining whether to pay under any Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Lender shall not have any obligation relative to the Lenders participating in such Letter of Credit or the related Letter of Credit Liabilities other than to determine that any document or documents required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit have been delivered and that they substantially comply on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit. Any action taken or omitted to be taken by an Issuing Lender under or in connection with any Letter of Credit shall not create for such Issuing Lender any resulting liability if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct. Each Issuing Lender shall be entitled (but not obligated) to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, on the representation and warranty by the applicable Borrower set forth in the last sentence of Section 4.02 to establish whether the conditions specified in clauses (b) and (c) of Section 4.02 are met in connection with any issuance or extension of a Letter of Credit. Each Issuing Lender shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by such Issuing Lender and upon any Letter of Credit, draft, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, telecopier, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary unless the beneficiary and the applicable Borrower shall have notified such Issuing Lender that such documents do not comply with the terms and conditions of the Letter of Credit. Each Issuing Lender shall be fully justified in refusing to take any action requested of it under this Section in respect of any Letter of Credit unless it shall first have received such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it reasonably deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take, or omitting or continuing to omit, any such action. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, each Issuing Lender shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Section in respect of any Letter of Credit in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant hereto shall be binding upon all Lenders and all future holders of participations in such Letter of Credit; provided, that this

54 sentence shall not affect any rights any Borrower may have against any Issuing Lender or the Lenders that make such request. Section 3.09 Obligations of Lenders to Reimburse Issuing Lender for Unpaid Drawings. If any Issuing Lender makes any payment under any Letter of Credit and the applicable Borrower shall not have reimbursed such amount in full to such Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.07, such Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender (other than the applicable Issuing Lender), and each such Lender shall promptly and unconditionally pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of such Issuing Lender, such Xxxxxx’s share of such payment (determined in accordance with its respective Commitment Ratio) in Dollars in Federal or other immediately available funds, the aggregate of such payments relating to each unreimbursed amount being referred to herein as a “Mandatory Letter of Credit Borrowing”; provided, however, that no Lender shall be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent its pro rata share of such unreimbursed amount for any wrongful payment made by the applicable Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit as a result of acts or omissions constituting willful misconduct or gross negligence by such Issuing Lender. If the Administrative Agent so notifies a Lender prior to 11:00 A.M. (Charlotte, North Carolina time) on any Business Day, such Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent at its address referred to in Section 9.01 and for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender such Lender’s pro rata share of the amount of such payment by 3:00 P.M. (Charlotte, North Carolina time) on the Business Day following such Xxxxxx’s receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent, together with interest on such amount for each day from and including the date of such drawing to but excluding the day such payment is due from such Lender at the Federal Funds Rate for such day (which funds the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to such Issuing Lender). The failure of any Lender to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of an Issuing Lender its pro rata share of any unreimbursed drawing under any Letter of Credit shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Lender its pro rata share of any payment made under any Letter of Credit on the date required, as specified above, but no such Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Lender such other Lender’s pro rata share of any such payment. Upon payment in full of all amounts payable by a Lender under this Section 3.09, such Lender shall be subrogated to the rights of the applicable Issuing Lender against such Borrower to the extent of such Xxxxxx’s pro rata share of the related Letter of Credit Liabilities (including interest accrued thereon). If any Lender fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it pursuant to this Section 3.09 on the date on which such payment is due, interest shall accrue on such Lender’s obligation to make such payment, for each day from and including the date such payment became due to but excluding the date such Lender makes such payment, whether before or after judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) for each day from the date such payment is due to the third succeeding Business Day, inclusive, the Federal Funds Rate for such day as determined by the applicable Issuing Lender and (ii) for each day thereafter, the sum of 2% plus the rate applicable to its Base Rate Loans for such day. Any payment made by any Lender after 3:00 P.M. (Charlotte, North Carolina time) on any Business Day shall be deemed for purposes of the preceding sentence to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day. Section 3.10 Funds Received from a Borrower in Respect of Drawn Letters of Credit. Whenever an Issuing Lender receives a payment of a Reimbursement Obligation as to which the Administrative Agent has received for the account of such Issuing Lender any payments from the other Lenders pursuant to Section 3.09 above, such Issuing Lender shall pay the amount of such payment to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to each Lender which has paid its pro rata share thereof, in Dollars in Federal or other immediately available funds, an amount equal to such Xxxxxx’s pro rata share of the principal amount thereof and interest thereon for each day after relevant date of payment at the Federal Funds Rate.

55 Section 3.11 Obligations in Respect of Letters of Credit Unconditional. The obligations of each Borrower under Section 3.07 above shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, under all circumstances whatsoever, including, without limitation, the following circumstances: (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any Letter of Credit or any document related hereto or thereto; (b) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the provisions of this Agreement or any Letter of Credit or any document related hereto or thereto; (c) the use which may be made of the Letter of Credit by, or any acts or omission of, a beneficiary of a Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom the beneficiary may be acting); (d) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other rights that such Borrower may have at any time against a beneficiary of a Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom the beneficiary may be acting), any Issuing Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement or any Letter of Credit or any document related hereto or thereto or any unrelated transaction; (e) any statement or any other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect whatsoever; (f) payment under a Letter of Credit against presentation to an Issuing Lender of a draft or certificate that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; provided, that the applicable Issuing Lender’s determination that documents presented under such Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof shall not have constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Issuing Lender; or (g) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by any Issuing Lender or any other Person or any other event or circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this subsection (g), constitute a legal or equitable discharge of such Borrower’s obligations hereunder. Nothing in this Section 3.11 is intended to limit the right of any Borrower to make a claim against any Issuing Lender for damages as contemplated by the proviso to the first sentence of Section 3.12. Section 3.12 Indemnification in Respect of Letters of Credit. Each Borrower hereby indemnifies and holds harmless each Lender (including each Issuing Lender) and the Administrative Agent from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses which such Lender or the Administrative Agent may incur by reason of or in connection with the failure of any other Lender to fulfill or comply with its obligations to such Issuing Lender hereunder (but nothing herein contained shall affect any rights which any Borrower may have against such defaulting Lender), and none of the Lenders (including any Issuing Lender) nor the Administrative Agent, their respective affiliates nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable or responsible, by reason of or in connection with the execution and delivery or transfer of or payment or failure to pay under any Letter of Credit, including, without limitation, any of the circumstances enumerated in Section 3.11, as well as (i) any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, (ii) any error in interpretation of technical terms, (iii) any loss or delay in the transmission of any document required in order to make a drawing under a Letter of Credit, (iv) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of such indemnitee, including without limitation, any government acts, or (v) any other circumstances whatsoever in making or failing to make payment under such Letter of Credit; provided, that no Borrower shall be required to indemnify any Issuing Lender for any

56 claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses, and each Borrower shall have a claim against such Issuing Lender for direct (but not consequential) damages suffered by it, to the extent found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment or order to have been caused by (i) the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Issuing Lender in determining whether a request presented under any Letter of Credit issued by it complied with the terms of such Letter of Credit or (ii) such Issuing Lender’s failure to pay under any Letter of Credit issued by it after the presentation to it of a request strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit, unless payment was prohibited by law, regulation or court order; provided further that any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses attributable to a particular Borrower shall be indemnified solely by such Borrower. Nothing in this Section 3.12 is intended to limit the obligations of any Borrower under any other provision of this Agreement. Section 3.13 ISP98. The rules of the “International Standby Practices 1998” as published by the International Chamber of Commerce most recently at the time of issuance of any Letter of Credit (the “ISP”) shall apply to such Letter of Credit unless otherwise expressly provided in such Letter of Credit. Section 3.14 Amount of Letter of Credit. Unless otherwise specified herein, the amount of a Letter of Credit at any time shall be deemed to be the stated amount of such Letter of Credit in effect at such time; provided, however, that with respect to any Letter of Credit that, by its terms or the terms of any Issuer Document related thereto, provides for one or more automatic increases in the stated amount thereof, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be the maximum stated amount of such Letter of Credit after giving effect to all such increases, whether or not such maximum stated amount is in effect at such time, except that Letter of Credit fees payable as provided in Section 2.07(b) shall be calculated based on the actual amount available for drawing in effect at any time rather than such maximum stated amount. Section 3.15 Reallocation of Risk Participations. On the 2026 Termination Date, all participation interests with respect to Letters of Credit issued hereunder on or prior to the such date shall be reallocated to the 2027 Revolving Lenders in accordance with their pro rata share of the remaining Revolving Commitments; provided that such reallocation shall only be effected to the extent that it would not result in the Revolving Outstandings of any 2027 Revolving Lender exceeding such Lender’s 2027 Revolving Commitment; provided further that if the reallocation in the preceding proviso cannot, or can only partially, be effected as a result of the limitations set forth herein, the Borrower shall, on the 2026 Termination Date, prepay Revolving Loans so that such reallocation can be fully effectuated and/or cash collateralize any Letter of Credit Liabilities by depositing into a cash collateral account established and maintained (including the investments made pursuant thereto) by the Administrative Agent pursuant to a cash collateral agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent an amount in cash equal to the then outstanding Letter of Credit Liabilities that are not so reallocated.

69 outstanding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the Guarantor is the “Applicable Loan Party” under this Section 7.01 that triggers a Default or an Event of Default hereunder, such Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to be a Default or Event of Default in respect of the Company only and not in respect of any Designated Borrower. For the avoidance of doubt, other than with respect to the immediately preceding sentence, the existence of a Default or Event of Default in respect of a Borrower shall not in and of itself give rise to a Default or Event of Default, as applicable, in respect of any other Loan Party. ARTICLE VIII THE AGENTS Section 8.01 Appointment and Authorization. Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Administrative Agent to act as specified herein and in the other Loan Documents and to take such actions on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Administrative Agent agrees to act as such upon the express conditions contained in this Article VIII. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent. The provisions of this Article VIII are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and Lenders, and no other Person shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions hereof. For the sake of clarity, the Lenders hereby agree that no Agent other than the Administrative Agent shall have, in such capacity, any duties or powers with respect to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. Section 8.02 Individual Capacity. The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with any Borrower, Guarantor and its Affiliates as though the Administrative Agent were not an Agent. With respect to the Loans made by it and all obligations owing to it, the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the terms “Required Lenders”, “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity. Section 8.03 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys- in-fact selected by it with reasonable care except to the extent otherwise required by Section 8.07. Section 8.04 Reliance by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy or other electronic facsimile transmission, telex, telegram, cable, teletype, electronic transmission by modem, computer disk or any other message, statement, order or other writing or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to the Loan Parties), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders, or all of the Lenders, if applicable, as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or

70 continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders, if applicable, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Lenders. Section 8.05 Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default hereunder unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or a Loan Party referring to this Agreement, describing such Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. If the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders; provided, that, unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders. Section 8.06 Non-Reliance on the Agents and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that no Agent or officer, director, employee, agent, attorney-in-fact or affiliate of any Agent has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by any Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Loan Parties, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by such Agent to any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges to the Agents that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, assets, operations, property, financial and other condition, prospects and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, assets, operations, property, financial and other condition, prospects and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties. No Agent shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, assets, property, financial and other condition, prospects or creditworthiness of the Loan Parties which may come into the possession of such Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates. Section 8.07 Exculpatory Provisions. The Administrative Agent shall not, and no officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates of the Administrative Agent, shall (i) be liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except for its own gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith) or (ii) be responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by each Loan Party or any of its officers contained in this Agreement, in any other Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any failure of any Loan Party or any of its officers to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Administrative Agent shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Loan Parties. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible to any Lender for the effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectibility or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any representations, warranties, recitals or statements made by any other Person herein or therein or made by any other Person in any written or oral statement or in any financial or other statements, instruments, reports, certificates or any other documents in connection herewith or therewith furnished or made by the Administrative Agent

71 to the Lenders or by or on behalf of any Loan Party to the Administrative Agent or any Lender or be required to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, provisions, covenants or agreements contained herein or therein or as to the use of the proceeds of the Loans or of the existence or possible existence of any Default. Section 8.08 Indemnification. To the extent that the Loan Parties, as applicable, for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under Sections 9.03(a), (b) or (c) to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the Lenders severally agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent, in its capacity as such, and hold the Administrative Agent, in its capacity as such, harmless ratably according to their respective Commitments from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs and reasonable expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including, without limitation, at any time following the full payment of the obligations of any Borrower hereunder) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, in its capacity as such, in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any documents contemplated hereby or referred to herein or the transactions contemplated hereby or any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing, but only to the extent that any of the foregoing is not paid by the Loan Parties; provided, that no Lender shall be liable to the Administrative Agent for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs or expenses or disbursements resulting from the gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of the Administrative Agent. If any indemnity furnished to the Administrative Agent for any purpose shall, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, the Administrative Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished. The agreement in this Section 8.08 shall survive the payment of all Loans, Letter of Credit Liabilities, fees and other obligations of any Borrower arising hereunder. Section 8.09 Resignation; Successors. The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon twenty (20) days’ notice to the Lenders. Upon the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint from among the Lenders a successor to the Administrative Agent, subject to prior approval by the Borrowers (so long as no Event of Default exists) (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld), whereupon such successor Administrative Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the term “Administrative Agent” shall include such successor Administrative Agent effective upon its appointment, and the retiring Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. If no successor shall have been appointed by the Required Lenders and approved by the Borrowers and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may at its election give notice to the Lenders and Loan Parties of the immediate effectiveness of its resignation and such resignation shall thereupon become effective and the Lenders collectively shall perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article VIII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document. Section 8.10 Administrative Agent’s Fees. The Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent for its own account fees in the amount and at the times agreed to and accepted by the Company pursuant to the Agency Fee Letter.

72 Section 8.11 Erroneous Payments. (a) Each Lender, each Issuing Lender and any other party hereto hereby severally agrees that if (i) the Administrative Agent notifies (which such notice shall be conclusive absent manifest error) such Lender or Issuing Lender or any other Person that has received funds from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates, either for its own account or on behalf of a Lender or Issuing Lender (each such recipient, a “Payment Recipient”) that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds received by such Payment Recipient were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Payment Recipient) or (ii) any Payment Recipient receives any payment from the Administrative 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, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, as applicable, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, as applicable, or (z) that such Payment Recipient otherwise becomes aware was transmitted or received in error or by mistake (in whole or in part) then, in each case, an error in payment shall be presumed to have been made (any such amounts specified in clauses (i) or (ii) of this Section 8.11(a), whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise; individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”), then, in each case, such Payment Recipient is deemed to have knowledge of such error at the time of its receipt of such Erroneous Payment; provided that nothing in this Section shall require the Administrative Agent to provide any of the notices specified in clauses (i) or (ii) above. Each Payment Recipient agrees that it shall not assert any right or claim to any Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payments, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine. (b) Without limiting the immediately preceding clause (a), each Payment Recipient agrees that, in the case of clause (a)(ii) above, it shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent in writing of such occurrence. (c) In the case of either clause (a)(i) or (a)(ii) above, such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Administrative Agent and shall be segregated by the Payment Recipient and held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, and upon demand from the Administrative Agent such Payment Recipient shall (or, shall cause (or with respect to the Borrower, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause) any Person who received any portion of an Erroneous Payment on its behalf to), promptly, but in all events no later than two Business Days thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds and 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 Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. (d) In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Administrative Agent for any reason, after demand therefor by the Administrative Agent in accordance with immediately preceding clause (c), from any Lender that is a Payment Recipient or an Affiliate of a Payment Recipient (such unrecovered amount as to such Lender, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”), then at the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and upon the Administrative Agent’s written notice to such Lender (i) such Lender shall be deemed to have made a cashless assignment of the full face amount of the portion of its Loans (but not its Commitments) with respect to which such Erroneous

73 Payment was made to the Administrative Agent or, at the option of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent’s applicable lending affiliate in an amount that is equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as the Administrative Agent may specify) (such assignment of the Loans (but not Commitments), the “Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment”) plus any accrued and unpaid interest on such assigned amount, without further consent or approval of any party hereto and without any payment by the Administrative Agent or its applicable lending affiliate as the assignee of such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (1) any assignment contemplated in this clause (d) shall be made without any requirement for any payment or other consideration paid by the applicable assignee or received by the assignor, (2) the provisions of this clause (d) shall govern in the event of any conflict with the terms and conditions of Section 9.06 and (3) the Administrative Agent may reflect such assignments in the Register without further consent or action by any other Person. (e) Each party hereto hereby agrees that (x) in the event an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Payment Recipient that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent (1) shall be subrogated to all the rights of such Payment Recipient with respect to such amount and (2) is authorized to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Payment Recipient under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Administrative Agent to such Payment Recipient from any source, against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Section 8.11 or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement, (y) the receipt of an Erroneous Payment by a Payment Recipient shall not for the purpose of this Agreement be treated as a payment, prepayment, repayment, discharge or other satisfaction of any Obligations owed by any Borrower, and (z) to the extent that an Erroneous Payment was in any way or at any time credited as payment or satisfaction of any of the Obligations, the Obligations or any part thereof that were so credited, and all rights of the Payment Recipient, as the case may be, shall be reinstated and continue in full force and effect as if such payment or satisfaction had never been received, except, in the case of each of clauses (x), (y) and (z), to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from a Loan Party for the purpose of making a payment on the Obligations of the Applicable Loan Party. (f) Each party’s obligations under this Section 8.11 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any transfer of right or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document. (g) Nothing in this Section 8.11 will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of the Administrative Agent hereunder arising from any Payment Recipient’s receipt of an Erroneous Payment. ARTICLE IX MISCELLANEOUS Section 9.01 Notices. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing (for purposes hereof, the term “writing” shall include information in electronic format such as electronic mail and internet web pages) or by telephone subsequently confirmed in writing; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender, the Swingline Lender or any Issuing Lender pursuant to Article II or Article III, as applicable, if such Lender, Swingline Lender or Issuing Lender, as applicable, has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article in electronic format.

77 Lender, except as otherwise expressly contemplated by this Agreement, the Lender receiving such proportionately greater payment shall purchase such participations in the Loan made or Notes and Letter of Credit Liabilities held by the other Lenders, and such other adjustments shall be made, in each case as may be required so that all such payments of principal and interest with respect to the Loan made or Notes and Letter of Credit Liabilities made or held by the Lenders shall be shared by the Lenders pro rata; provided, that nothing in this Section shall impair the right of any Lender to exercise any right of set-off or counterclaim it may have for payment of indebtedness of any Borrower other than its indebtedness hereunder. Section 9.05 Amendments and Waivers. Any provision of this Agreement or the Notes may be amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by the Loan Parties and the Required Lenders (and, if the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, Swingline Lender or any Issuing Lenders are affected thereby, by the Administrative Agent, Swingline Lender or such Issuing Lender, as relevant); provided, that no such amendment or waiver shall, (a) unless signed by each Lender adversely affected thereby, (i) extend or increase the Commitment of any Lender or subject any Lender to any additional obligation (it being understood that waivers or modifications of conditions precedent, covenants, Defaults or of mandatory reductions in the Commitments shall not constitute an increase of the Commitment of any Lender, and that an increase in the available portion of any Commitment of any Lender as in effect at any time shall not constitute an increase in such Commitment), (ii) reduce the principal of or rate of interest on any Loan (except in connection with a waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates) or the amount to be reimbursed in respect of any Letter of Credit or any interest thereon or any fees hereunder, (iii) postpone the date fixed for any payment of interest on any Loan or the amount to be reimbursed in respect of any Letter of Credit or any interest thereon or any fees hereunder or for any scheduled reduction or termination of any Commitment or (except as expressly provided in Article III) expiration date of any Letter of Credit, (iv) postpone or change the date fixed for any scheduled payment of principal of any Loan, (v) change any provision hereof in a manner that would alter the pro rata funding of Loans required by Section 2.04(b), the pro rata sharing of payments required by Sections 2.09(b), 2.11(a) or 9.04 or the pro rata reduction of Commitments required by Section 2.08(a) or (vi) change the currency in which Loans are to be made, Letters of Credit are to be issued or payment under the Loan Documents is to be made, or add additional borrowers or (b) unless signed by each Lender, (i) change the definition of Required Lender or this Section 9.05 or Section 9.06(a) or (ii) release the Guarantor from its Obligations under the Guaranty. Section 9.06 Successors and Assigns. (a) Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, except that no Loan Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights under this Agreement without the prior written consent of all of the Lenders, except to the extent any such assignment results from the consummation of a merger or consolidation permitted pursuant to Section 6.07 of this Agreement. (b) Participations. Any Lender may at any time grant to one or more banks or other financial institutions or special purpose funding vehicle (each a “Participant”) participating interests in its Commitments and/or any or all of its Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities. In the event of any such grant by a Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, whether or not upon notice to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, such Lender shall remain responsible for the performance of its obligations hereunder, and the Borrowers, the Issuing Lenders, the Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement pursuant to which any Lender may grant such a participating interest shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right and responsibility to enforce the obligations of the Loan Parties hereunder including, without limitation, the right to approve any

78 amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided, that such participation agreement may provide that such Lender will not agree to any modification, amendment or waiver of this Agreement which would (i) extend the applicable Termination Date, reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of principal, interest or fees on any Loan or Letter of Credit Liability in which such Participant is participating (except in connection with a waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates) or reduce the principal amount thereof, or increase the amount of the Participant’s participation over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or of a mandatory reduction in the Commitments shall not constitute a change in the terms of such participation, and that an increase in any Commitment or Loan or Letter of Credit Liability shall be permitted without the consent of any Participant if the Participant’s participation is not increased as a result thereof) or (ii) allow the assignment or transfer by any Loan Party of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, without the consent of the Participant, except to the extent any such assignment results from the consummation of a merger or consolidation permitted pursuant to Section 6.07 of this Agreement. Each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall, to the extent provided in its participation agreement, be entitled to the benefits of Article II with respect to its participating interest to the same extent as if it were a Lender, subject to the same limitations, and in no case shall any Participant be entitled to receive any amount payable pursuant to Article II that is greater than the amount the Lender granting such Participant’s participating interest would have been entitled to receive had such Lender not sold such participating interest. An assignment or other transfer which is not permitted by subsection (c) or (d) below shall be given effect for purposes of this Agreement only to the extent of a participating interest granted in accordance with this subsection (b). Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of each Borrower, maintain a register (solely for tax purposes) 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 to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such interest in the Loan or other obligation under the Loan Documents 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. (c) Assignments Generally. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees (each, an “Assignee”) all, or a proportionate part (equivalent to an initial amount of not less than $5,000,000 or any larger integral multiple of $1,000,000), of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Notes with respect to its Loans and, if still in existence, its Commitment, and such Assignee shall assume such rights and obligations, pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption Agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit C attached hereto executed by such Assignee and such transferor, with (and subject to) the consent of the Borrowers, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, the Administrative Agent, Swingline Lender and the Issuing Lenders, which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, that if an Assignee is an Approved Fund or Affiliate of such transferor Lender or was a Lender immediately prior to such assignment, no such consent of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent shall be required; provided, further, that if at the time of such assignment a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to a Borrower, no such consent of the applicable Borrower shall be required; provided, further, that no such assignment may be made prior to the Effective Date without the prior written consent of the Joint Lead Arrangers; provided, further, that the provisions of Sections 2.12, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of a transferor with respect to any Loans made, any Letters of Credit issued or any other actions taken by such transferor while it was a Lender. Upon execution and delivery of such instrument and payment by such Assignee to such transferor of an amount equal to the purchase price agreed between such transferor and such Assignee, such Assignee shall be a Lender party to this Agreement and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Lender with a Commitment, if any, as set forth in such instrument of assumption, and the transferor shall be released from

79 its obligations hereunder to a corresponding extent, and no further consent or action by any party shall be required. Upon the consummation of any assignment pursuant to this subsection (c), the transferor, the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower shall make appropriate arrangements so that, if required, a new Note is issued to the Assignee. In connection with any such assignment, the transferor shall pay to the Administrative Agent an administrative fee for processing such assignment in the amount of $3,500; provided that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such administrative fee in the case of any assignment. Each Assignee shall, on or before the effective date of such assignment, deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent certification as to exemption from deduction or withholding of any United States Taxes in accordance with Section 2.17(e). (d) Assignments to Federal Reserve Banks. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and its Note to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central banking authority; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. (e) Register. Each Borrower hereby designates the Administrative Agent to serve as each Borrower’s agent, solely for purposes of this Section 9.06(e), to (i) maintain a register (the “Register”) on which the Administrative Agent will record the Commitments from time to time of each Lender, the Loans made by each Lender and each repayment in respect of the principal amount of the Loans of each Lender and to (ii) retain a copy of each Assignment and Assumption Agreement delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section. Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect each Borrower’s obligation in respect of such Loans. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and each Borrower, the Administrative Agent, Swingline Lender, the Issuing Lenders and the other Lenders shall treat each Person in whose name a Loan and the Note evidencing the same is registered as the owner thereof for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice or any provision herein to the contrary. With respect to any Lender, the assignment or other transfer of the Commitments of such Lender and the rights to the principal of, and interest on, any Loan made and any Note issued pursuant to this Agreement shall not be effective until such assignment or other transfer is recorded on the Register and, except to the extent provided in this Section 9.06(e), otherwise complies with Section 9.06, and prior to such recordation all amounts owing to the transferring Lender with respect to such Commitments, Loans and Notes shall remain owing to the transferring Lender. The registration of assignment or other transfer of all or part of any Commitments, Loans and Notes for a Lender shall be recorded by the Administrative Agent on the Register only upon the acceptance by the Administrative Agent of a properly executed and delivered Assignment and Assumption Agreement and payment of the administrative fee referred to in Section 9.06(c). The Register shall be available for inspection by each of the Borrowers, the Swingline Lender and each Issuing Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. In addition, at any time that a request for a consent for a material or substantive change to the Loan Documents is pending, any Lender wishing to consult with other Lenders in connection therewith may request and receive from the Administrative Agent a copy of the Register. No Borrower may replace any Lender pursuant to Section 2.08(b), unless, with respect to any Notes held by such Lender, the requirements of Section 9.06(c) and this Section 9.06(e) have been satisfied. Section 9.07 Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction. This Agreement, each Note and each Letter of Credit shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York. Each Loan Party hereby submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and of any New York State court, in each case, sitting in New York City, borough of Manhattan, for purposes of all legal proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. Each Loan Party irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any

80 such proceeding brought in such court and any claim that any such proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Section 9.08 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement shall become effective on the Effective Date. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent is under no obligation to accept an Electronic Signature in any form or in any format unless expressly agreed to by the Administrative Agent pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that without limiting the foregoing, (i) to the extent the Administrative Agent has agreed to accept such Electronic Signature from any party hereto, the Administrative Agent and the other parties hereto shall be entitled to rely on any such Electronic Signature purportedly given by or on behalf of the executing party without further verification and (ii) upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by an original manually executed counterpart thereof. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby (A) agrees that, for all purposes, including without limitation, in connection with any workout, restructuring, enforcement of remedies, bankruptcy proceedings or litigation among the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower, electronic images of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (in each case, including with respect to any signature pages thereto) shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as any paper original, and (B) waives any argument, defense or right to contest the validity or enforceability of the Loan Documents based solely on the lack of paper original copies of any Loan Documents, including with respect to any signature pages thereto.

Upon the payment in full of all Obligations with respect to the applicable Designated Borrower, performance in full of all other obligations of such Designated Borrower under this Agreement and the applicable Sublimit for such Other Designated Borrower being reduced to zero, then, so long as at the time notice is given to such effect from the Administrative Agent to the Lenders (which notice the Administrative Agent shall give promptly upon its receipt of a request therefor from the Company) no Notice of Borrowing in respect of the Designated Borrower is outstanding, and at the request of such Designated Borrower, (x) such Designated Borrower’s status as a “Designated Borrower” shall immediately terminate and such Designated Borrower shall cease to have the rights and obligations of a Borrower hereunder and (y) the Lenders shall be under no further obligation to make any Loans or issue any Letters of Credit hereunder to or for the account of such Designated Borrower.

Section 9.22 Amendment and Restatement of Existing Credit Agreement. Upon the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Existing Credit Agreement shall be amended and restated to read in its entirety as set forth herein. With effect from and including the Effective Date, (i) the Commitments of each Lender party hereto shall be as set forth on the Appendix A (and (a) to the extent that such Lender constitutes a lender under the Existing Credit Agreement (a “Consenting Lender”), such Consenting Lender’s commitment thereunder shall be terminated and replaced with its respective Commitment hereunder and (b) any lender under the Existing Credit Agreement that is not listed on Appendix A shall cease to be a Lender hereunder and its commitment thereunder shall be terminated; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, such lender under the Existing Credit Agreement shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.03 of the Existing Credit Agreement), (ii) all accrued and unpaid interest and fees and other amounts owing under the Existing Credit Agreement shall have been paid by the Borrower under the Existing Credit Agreement, whether or not such interest, fees or other amounts would otherwise be due and payable at such time pursuant to the Existing Credit Agreement, (iii) the Commitment Ratio of the Consenting Lenders shall be redetermined based on the Commitments set forth in the Appendix A and the participations of the Consenting Lenders in, and the obligations of the Consenting Lenders in respect of, any Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans outstanding on the Effective Date shall be reallocated to reflect such redetermined Commitment Ratio and (iv) each JLA Issuing Bank shall have the Fronting Sublimit set forth in Appendix B. Section 9.23 Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for hedge agreements 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.

89 (b) As used in this Section 9.22, the following terms have the following meanings: “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. “Covered Entity” means any of the following: (i) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b); (ii) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or (iii) a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b). “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. “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). Section 9.24 Several Liability; No Joint Liability. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree that the obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are several and not joint. No Borrower shall be liable for the conduct of any other Borrower, and no Borrower is a primary obligor, guarantor or surety for the obligation of any other Borrower under the Loan Documents. ARTICLE X GUARANTY Section 10.01 Guaranty. The Guarantor unconditionally, absolutely and irrevocably guarantees to the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Issuing Lender, as though it was a primary obligor for, the full and punctual payment of the Obligations of the Company when due (whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise). If the Company fails to pay any Obligation owed by it punctually when due, the Guarantor agrees that it will forthwith on demand pay the amount not so paid at the place and in the manner specified in the relevant Loan Document. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the liability of the Guarantor individually with respect to its obligations, including any payment made pursuant to, this Guaranty shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the maximum amount that would not render the Guarantor’s obligations hereunder subject to avoidance under the Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provisions of any applicable state law. This Guaranty is a Guarantee of payment and not merely of collection. For the avoidance of doubt, this Guaranty shall only apply to the Obligations of the Company and shall not apply to any Obligations of any Designated Borrower. Section 10.02 Guaranty Unconditional. The obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall be unconditional and absolute and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, shall not be released, discharged or otherwise affected by: (a) any change in the amount or purpose of or the time, manner, method, or place of payment or performance of any of the Obligations or any extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, waiver or release in respect of any obligation of the Company or any other Person under any Loan Document, by operation of law or otherwise;

90 (b) any modification, extension, renewal or amendment of or supplement to any Loan Document or any of the Obligations or any execution or delivery of any additional Loan Documents; (c) any release, impairment, non-perfection or invalidity of any direct or indirect security for any obligation of the Company or any other Person under any Loan Document; (d) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of the Company or any other Person or any of their respective Subsidiaries, or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting the Company or any other Person or any of their assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation (including any of the Obligations) of the Company or any other Person under any Loan Document; (e) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense, counterclaim, withholding or other right that the Guarantor or the Company may have at any time against any Person (including the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders), whether in connection with the Loan Documents or any unrelated transactions; provided that nothing herein shall prevent the assertion of any such claim or defense by separate suit or compulsory counterclaim; (f) any avoidance, subordination, invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against the Company or any other Person for any reason of any Obligation or any Loan Document, any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit the payment of any Obligation by the Company or any other Person, or the Company denies that it has any or further liability or obligation under any Loan Document, or purports to revoke, terminate or rescind any Obligation or provision of any Loan Document; (g) any failure of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Lender to assert any claim or demand or to exercise or enforce any right or remedy under the provisions of any Loan Document or to assert any breach of or default under any Loan Document or any breach of the Obligations; or (h) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by the Company, any other party to any Loan Document or any other Person, or any other circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this clause (h), constitute a legal or equitable discharge of or defense to any obligation of the Guarantor hereunder. Section 10.03 Discharge Only Upon Payment in Full; Reinstatement in Certain Circumstances. The Guarantor’s obligations hereunder shall remain in full force and effect until all Obligations of the Company shall have been paid in full, all Commitments as to the Company have been terminated and all Letters of Credit issued for the account of the Company have either expired, been repaid in full or been cash collateralized. If at any time any payment of any such Obligation is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company or otherwise, the Guarantor’s obligations hereunder shall be reinstated as though such payment had been due but not made at such time. Section 10.04 Waiver by Guarantor. The Guarantor irrevocably waives (a) acceptance hereof, presentment, demand for performance, promptness, diligence, notice of non-performance, default, acceleration, protest or dishonor and any notice not provided for herein, (b) any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against the Company or any other Person, (c) any right to revoke this Guaranty, and (d) any defense based on any right of set-off, recoupment, counterclaim, withholding or other deduction of any nature against or in respect of the Obligations. Section 10.05 Subrogation. Upon making payment with respect to any of the Company’s Obligations, the Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights of the payee against the Company with respect

91 to such payment; provided that the Guarantor agrees it will not exercise any rights against the Company arising in connection with such Obligations by way of subrogation against the Company, or by reason of contribution against any other guarantor of such Obligations until all such Obligations shall have been paid in full, all Commitments have been terminated and all Letters of Credit have either expired, been repaid in full or been cash collateralized. Section 10.06 Stay of Acceleration. If acceleration of the time for payment of any Obligation by the Company is stayed, enjoined or prevented for any reason (including but not limited to by reason of the insolvency or receivership of the Company or otherwise), all Obligations of the Company otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of any Loan Document shall nonetheless be payable by the Guarantor forthwith on demand by the Administrative Agent. Section 10.07 Continuing Guaranty. The Guaranty set forth in this Article X is a continuing guaranty, shall be binding on the Guarantor and its successors and assigns, and shall be enforceable by each holder from time to time of the Obligations of the Company (including, without limitation, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, each, a “Guaranteed Party”). If all or part of any Guaranteed Party’s interest in such Obligation is assigned or otherwise transferred, the transferor’s rights hereunder, to the extent applicable to the obligation so transferred, shall automatically be transferred with such obligation; and without limitation of the foregoing, any of the Company’s Obligations shall be and remain Obligations entitled to the benefit of this Guaranty if any Guaranteed Party assigns or otherwise transfers all or part of its interest in such Obligation or any of its rights or obligations under any Loan Document. Section 10.08 Default Payments by the Company. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any default under any Obligation of the Company, if any amount shall be paid to the Guarantor by or for the account of the Company with respect to such Obligation, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of each Lender, each Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent to be credited and applied to the Company’s Obligations when due and payable. Section 10.09 Duty to Stay Advised. The Guarantor agrees that the Lenders shall have no duty to advise the Guarantor of information known to them regarding the financial condition of the Company and the Guarantor hereby assumes responsibility for keeping itself advised of the financial condition of the Company.
