“Benchmark Replacement Adjustment” means, with respect to any replacement of the then-current Benchmark with an Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for any applicable Interest Period and Available Tenor for any setting of such Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement, the spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment (which may be a positive or negative value or zero), that has been selected by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower for the applicable Corresponding Tenor giving due consideration to (a) any selection or recommendation of a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement by the Relevant Governmental Body on the applicable Benchmark Replacement Date and/or (b) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for syndicated credit facilities denominated in the applicable Agreed Currency at such time.

“Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes” means, with respect to any Benchmark Replacement and/or the Adjusted Term SOFR, any technical, administrative or operational changes (including changes to the definition of “Base Rate,” the definition of “Business Day,” the definition of “Interest Period,” the definition of “RFR Business Day,” the definition of “U.S. Government Securities Business Day,” timing and frequency of determining rates and making payments of interest, timing of borrowing requests or prepayment, conversion or continuation notices, length of lookback periods, the applicability of breakage provisions, and other technical, administrative or operational matters) that the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower, decides may be appropriate to reflect the adoption and implementation of such Benchmark and to permit the administration thereof by the Administrative Agent in a manner substantially consistent with market practice (or, if the Administrative Agent decides that adoption of any portion of such market practice is not administratively feasible or if the Administrative Agent determines that no market practice for the administration of such Benchmark exists, in such other manner of administration as the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower, decides is reasonably necessary in connection with the administration of this Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents).

(2) in the case of clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition Event,” the first date on which such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) has been determined and announced by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) to be no longer representative; provided, that such non-representativeness will be determined by reference to the most recent statement or publication referenced in such clause (c) and even if any Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) continues to be provided on such date.

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

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

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

(2) a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof), the Federal Reserve Board, the NYFRB, the CME Term SOFR Administrator, the central bank for the Agreed Currency applicable to such Benchmark, an insolvency official with jurisdiction over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component), a resolution authority with jurisdiction over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component) or a court or an entity with similar insolvency or resolution authority over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component), in each case, which states that the administrator of such Benchmark (or such component) has ceased or will cease to provide all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) permanently or indefinitely; provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide any Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or such component thereof); or

(3) a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) announcing that all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) are no longer, or as of a specified future date will no longer be, representative.

For the avoidance of doubt, a “Benchmark Transition Event” will be deemed to have occurred with respect to any Benchmark if a public statement or publication of information set forth above has occurred with respect to each then-current Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof).

“Benchmark Unavailability Period” means, with respect to any Benchmark, the period (if any) (a) beginning at the time that a Benchmark Replacement Date has occurred if, at such time, no Benchmark Replacement has replaced such then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Credit Document in accordance with Section 3.10 and (b) ending at the time that a Benchmark Replacement has replaced such then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Credit Document in accordance with Section 3.10.

Upon at least three Business Days’ prior written notice, the Borrower shall have the right to permanently reduce, without premium or penalty, all or part of the aggregate unused amount of the Revolving Committed Amount at any time or from time to time; provided that (i) each partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount at least equal to $10,000,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000,000 above such amount and (ii) no reduction shall be made which would reduce the Revolving Committed Amount to an amount less than the aggregate amount of the Dollar Equivalent of outstanding Revolving Loans plus the aggregate amount of the Dollar Equivalent of outstanding LOC Obligations plus the aggregate amount of outstanding Swing Line Loans. Any reduction in (or termination of) the Revolving Committed Amount pursuant to this Section 2.1(d) shall be permanent and may not be reinstated. The Administrative Agent shall immediately notify the Lenders of any reduction in the Revolving Committed Amount pursuant to this Section 2.1(d).

(e)Revolving Notes. The Revolving Loans made by each Lender shall be evidenced by a duly executed promissory note of the Borrower to each Lender that requests a Revolving Note in substantially the form of Exhibit 2.1(e).

1.2Letter of Credit Subfacility.

(a)Issuance. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and of the LOC Documents, if any, and any other terms and conditions relating to the Borrower which the applicable Issuing Lender may reasonably require (so long as such terms and conditions do not impose any financial obligation on or require any Lien (not otherwise contemplated by this Credit Agreement) to be given by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or conflict with any obligation of, or detract from any action which may be taken by, the Borrower under this Credit Agreement), each Issuing Lender agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Section 2.2, from time to time upon request, to issue (from the Restatement Effective Date to thirty days prior to the Revolving Maturity Date and in a form reasonably acceptable to such Issuing Lender), in Dollars or, to the extent specified by the Borrower in the applicable request for issuance, in one or more Alternative Currencies, and Participants shall participate in, Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrower; provided, however, that, after giving effect to the issuance (or drawdown or extension) of any Letter of Credit, (i) the aggregate amount of the Dollar Equivalent of LOC Obligations for such Issuing Lender shall not at any time exceed the LOC Committed Amount of such Issuing Lender, (ii) the aggregate amount of the Dollar Equivalent of LOC Obligations shall not at any time exceed the aggregate LOC Committed Amount for all Issuing Lenders, (iii) the sum of (A) the aggregate amount of the Dollar Equivalent of outstanding LOC Obligations, plus (B) the aggregate amount of the Dollar Equivalent of Revolving Loans outstanding, plus (C) the aggregate amount of Swing Line Loans outstanding shall not exceed the Revolving Committed Amount and (iv) the aggregate amount of the Dollar Equivalent of Revolving Loans and LOC Obligations denominated in Alternative Currencies at any time shall not exceed the Foreign Currency Sublimit. Each Issuing Lender may require the issuance and expiry date of each Letter of Credit issued by it to be a Business Day. Each Letter of Credit shall be a standby letter of credit issued to support the obligations (including pension or insurance obligations), contingent or otherwise, of the Borrower or any of

its Subsidiaries. No Letter of Credit shall have an original expiry date after the earlier of (x) one year from the date of issuance and (y) five Business Days prior to the Revolving Maturity Date, provided that any Letter of Credit may contain customary automatic renewal provisions agreed upon by the Borrower and the relevant Issuing Lender pursuant to which the expiration date of such Letter of Credit shall automatically be extended for a period of up to 12 months (but not to a date later than the date set forth in clause (y) above), subject to a right on the part of such Issuing Lender to prevent any such renewal from occurring by giving notice to the beneficiary in advance of any such renewal. Each Letter of Credit shall comply with the related LOC Documents. The Borrower shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with the Borrower’s instructions or other irregularity, the Borrower will immediately notify the relevant Issuing Lender.

(b)Notice and Reports. The request for the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit (other than an automatic renewal permitted pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section)) shall be submitted to the Administrative Agent for distribution by the Administrative Agent to the relevant Issuing Lender as specified by the Borrower by hand delivery, fax or email at least three Business Days prior to the requested date of issuance for the Administrative Agent to coordinate with the respective Issuing Lenders. Each Issuing Lender will, at least quarterly and more frequently upon request, provide to the Administrative Agent for dissemination to the Lenders a report specifying the Letters of Credit which are then issued and outstanding. Each Issuing Lender will further provide to the Administrative Agent, promptly upon request, copies of the Letters of Credit and the other LOC Documents. For the avoidance of any doubt, the Borrower shall be entitled at all times to select which Issuing Lender will be used to issue a Letter of Credit.

(c)Participations. Each Participant, upon issuance of a Letter of Credit, shall be deemed to have purchased without recourse a risk participation from the relevant Issuing Lender in such Letter of Credit and each LOC Document related thereto and the rights and obligations arising thereunder and any collateral relating thereto, in each case in an amount equal to its Revolving Loan Commitment Percentage of the obligations under such Letter of Credit, and shall absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably assume, as primary obligor and not as surety, and be obligated to pay to such Issuing Lender therefor and discharge when due, its Revolving Loan Commitment Percentage of the obligations arising under such Letter of Credit. Without limiting the scope and nature of each Participant’s participation in any Letter of Credit, to the extent that any Issuing Lender has not been reimbursed as required hereunder or under any such Letter of Credit or pursuant to a Mandatory Borrowing under Section 2.2(e)(i), each such Participant shall fund its Participation Interest in such unreimbursed drawing in accordance with the terms of Section 2.2(e)(ii). Each Participant acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit (provided that such Letter of Credit shall expire no later than the date set forth in paragraph (a) of this Section), the occurrence and continuance of a Default, any reduction or termination of the Commitments or any force majeure or other event that under any rule of law or uniform practices to which any Letter of Credit is subject permits a drawing to be made under such Letter of Credit after the expiration thereof or of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Participant further acknowledges and agrees that, in issuing, amending, renewing or extending any Letter of Credit, the relevant Issuing Lender shall be entitled to rely, and shall not incur any liability for relying, upon the representations and warranties of the Borrower deemed made pursuant to Section 5.2. Any such reimbursement shall not relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the relevant Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as hereinafter provided.

(d)Reimbursement by Xxxxxxxx. In the event of any drawing under any Letter of Credit, the relevant Issuing Lender will promptly notify the Borrower. Unless the Borrower shall notify such Issuing Lender of its intent to otherwise reimburse such Issuing Lender and shall reimburse such Issuing Lender in same day funds in the currency of such drawing within one hour of receipt of notice of such drawing from such Issuing Lender, (i) if such drawing relates to a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, automatically and with no further action, the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse such drawing shall be permanently converted into an obligation to reimburse the Dollar Equivalent of such drawing, calculated using the Letter of Credit Exchange Rate applicable to such drawing and (ii) the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Revolving Loan borrowing in Dollars at the Base Rate in the amount of such drawing or Dollar Equivalent thereof, as the case may be, the proceeds of which will be used to satisfy the Borrower’s reimbursement obligations. Pending the satisfaction of the Borrower’s reimbursement obligations through the making of Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.2(e)(i), the unreimbursed amount of such drawing or the Dollar Equivalent thereof, as the case may be, will bear interest, payable from time to time on demand or, if no demand has been made, on the date on which the Borrower reimburses the applicable Letter of Credit in full, at the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans, for the accounts of the relevant Issuing Lender and the Participants, as their interests may appear. The Borrower’s reimbursement obligations hereunder shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable under all circumstances irrespective of (but without waiver of) (i) any rights of set-off, counterclaim or defense to payment the applicable account party or the Borrower may claim or have against any Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit drawn upon or any other Person, including without limitation, any defense based on any failure of the applicable account party or the Borrower to receive consideration, (ii) the legality, validity, regularity or unenforceability of any Letter of Credit, this Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document, (iii) any draft or 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, or (iv) any force majeure or other event that under any rule of law or uniform practices to which any Letter of Credit is subject permits a drawing to be made under such Letter of Credit after the stated expiration date thereof or of the Commitments.

(e)Reimbursement by Xxxxxxx.

(i)Reimbursement with Revolving Loans. On any day on which the Borrower shall have requested, or been deemed to have requested, a Revolving Loan borrowing to reimburse a drawing under a Letter of Credit (as set forth in clause (d) above), the Administrative Agent shall give notice to the Lenders, and a Revolving Loan borrowing in the amount of the Borrower’s reimbursement obligation comprised solely of Base Rate Loans (each such borrowing, a “Mandatory Borrowing”) shall be made from all Revolving Lenders (without giving effect to any termination of the Commitments pursuant to Section 9.2) pro rata based on each Revolving Lender’s respective Revolving Loan Commitment Percentage and the proceeds thereof shall be paid directly to the relevant Issuing Lender for application to the respective LOC Obligations. Each applicable Lender hereby irrevocably agrees to make such Revolving Loans upon any such request or deemed request on account of each such Mandatory Borrowing in the amount and in the manner specified in the preceding sentence and in accordance with the terms of Section 2.2(e)(iii) notwithstanding (A) the amount of Mandatory Borrowing may not comply with the minimum amount for borrowings of Revolving Loans otherwise required hereunder, (B) whether any conditions specified in Section 5.2 are then satisfied or waived, (C) whether a Default or Event of Default then exists, (D) failure of any such request or deemed request for Revolving Loans to be made by the time otherwise required hereunder, (E) the date of such Mandatory Borrowing, (F) any reduction in the Revolving Committed Amount or any termination of the Commitments, or (G) any set-

off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against any Issuing Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever.

(ii)Reimbursement Through Funding of Participation Interests. In the event that any Mandatory Borrowing cannot for any reason be made on the date otherwise required above (including, without limitation, as a result of the commencement of a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code with respect to the Borrower), the relevant Issuing Lender will promptly notify the Participants of the Dollar amount of any unreimbursed drawing (determined as provided above and adjusted for any payments received from the Borrower on or after the date of such drawing and prior to the funding of the Participation Interests therein) and each Participant shall fund its Participation Interest in such unreimbursed drawing by paying to the relevant Issuing Lender, in Dollars and in immediately available funds, the amount of such Participant’s Revolving Loan Commitment Percentage of such unreimbursed drawing. Each Participant’s obligation to make such payment to such Issuing Lender, and the right of such Issuing Lender to receive the same, shall be absolute and unconditional, shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever and without regard to (A) the termination of this Credit Agreement or the Commitments hereunder, (B) the existence of a Default or Event of Default, (C) the acceleration of the obligations hereunder and (D) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Participant may have against such Issuing Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever. Simultaneously with the making of each such payment by a Participant to any Issuing Lender, such Participant shall, automatically and without any further action on the part of the relevant Issuing Lender or such Participant, acquire a participation in an amount equal to such payment (excluding the portion of such payment constituting interest owing to such Issuing Lender) in the related unreimbursed LOC Obligation and in the interest thereon and in the related LOC Documents, and shall have a claim against the Borrower with respect thereto.

(iii)Funding of Mandatory Borrowing or Participation Interest. Each Revolving Lender and each Participant shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.2(e)(i) or Section 2.2(e)(ii), respectively, make its Revolving Loan Commitment Percentage of the unreimbursed drawing or Dollar Equivalent thereof, as the case may be, available to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the relevant Issuing Lender, by 1:00 p.m., New York City Time, on the day of the notice if notice is given on or before 11:00 a.m. or by 1:00 p.m., New York City Time, the next Business Day if notice is given after 11:00 a.m., in Dollars in immediately available funds at the Agency Services Address. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to such Issuing Lender.

(f)Modification and Extension. The issuance of any supplement, modification, amendment, renewal, or extensions to any Letter of Credit shall, for purposes hereof, be treated in all respects the same as the issuance of a new Letter of Credit hereunder.

(g)Applicability of ISP98. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the relevant Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx and the Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued, the rules of the “International Standby Practices 1998” published by the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice (or such later version thereof as may be in effect at the time of issuance) shall apply to each Letter of Credit.

(h)Responsibility of Issuing Lenders.

(i)It is expressly understood and agreed as between the Lenders that the obligations of each Issuing Lender hereunder to the Participants are only those expressly set forth in this Credit Agreement and that each Issuing Lender shall be entitled to assume

that the conditions precedent set forth in Section 5.2 have been satisfied unless it shall have acquired actual knowledge that any such condition precedent has not been satisfied; provided, however, that nothing set forth in this Section 2.2 shall be deemed to prejudice the right of any Participant to recover from any Issuing Lender any amounts made available by such Participant to such Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section 2.2 in the event that it is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and non-appealable judgment that the payment with respect to a Letter of Credit constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such Issuing Lender.

(ii)No Issuing Lender shall be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if (a) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Lender from issuing such Letter of Credit, (b) 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 Restatement Effective Date, or shall impose upon any Issuing Lender any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Restatement Effective Date and which such Issuing Lender in good xxxxx xxxxx material to it, or (c) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of such Issuing Lender.

(i)Conflict with LOC Documents. In the event of any conflict between this Credit Agreement and any LOC Document, this Credit Agreement shall govern.

(j)Indemnification of Issuing Lenders.

(i)In addition to its other obligations under this Credit Agreement, the Borrower hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and hold harmless each Issuing Lender from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including Attorney Costs) that any Issuing Lender may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (A) the issuance of any Letter of Credit or (B) the failure of any Issuing Lender to honor a drawing under a Letter of Credit as a result of any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto Governmental Authority (all such acts or omissions, herein called “Government Acts”).

(ii)As between the Borrower and each Issuing Lender, the Borrower shall assume all risks of the acts, omissions or misuse of any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof. No Issuing Lender shall be responsible for (except in the case of (A), (B) and (C) below if such Issuing Lender has actual knowledge to the contrary): (A) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of any Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (B) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, that may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (C) failure of the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit to comply fully with conditions required in order to draw upon a Letter of Credit; (D) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (E) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a

drawing under a Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof and (F) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of such Issuing Lender, including, without limitation, any Government Acts. None of the above shall affect, impair, or prevent the vesting of any Issuing Xxxxxx’s rights or powers hereunder.

(iii)In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific provisions hereinabove set forth, any action taken or omitted by any Issuing Lender, under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or the related certificates, if taken or omitted in good faith, shall not put such Issuing Lender under any resulting liability to the Borrower. It is the intention of the parties that this Credit Agreement shall be construed and applied to protect and indemnify each Issuing Lender against any and all risks involved in the issuance of the Letters of Credit, all of which risks are hereby assumed by the Borrower, including, without limitation, any and all risks of the acts or omissions, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future Government Acts. No Issuing Lender shall, in any way, be liable for any failure by any Issuing Lender or anyone else to pay any drawing under any Letter of Credit as a result of any Government Acts or any other cause beyond the control of such Issuing Lender.

(iv)None of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or the Issuing Lenders, or any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of any Issuing Lender; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse any Issuing Lender from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by such Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of any Issuing Lender (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), such Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the relevant Issuing Lender may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

(v)Nothing in this subsection (j) is intended to limit the reimbursement obligation of the Borrower contained in this Section 2.2. The obligations of the Borrower under this subsection (j) shall survive the termination of this Credit Agreement. No act or omission of any current or prior beneficiary of a Letter of Credit shall in any way affect or impair the rights of any Issuing Lender to enforce any right, power or benefit under this Credit Agreement.

(vi)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this subsection (j), the Borrower shall have no obligation to indemnify any Issuing Lender in respect of any liability incurred by such Issuing Lender arising out of the gross negligence, willful

misconduct or bad faith of such Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and non-appealable judgment.

(k)Designation of other Persons as Account Parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Credit Agreement, including without limitation Section 2.2(a) hereof, a Letter of Credit issued hereunder may contain a statement to the effect that such Letter of Credit is issued for the account of a Subsidiary of the Borrower; provided that notwithstanding such statement, the Borrower shall be the actual account party for all purposes of this Credit Agreement for such Letter of Credit and such statement shall not affect the Borrower’s reimbursement obligations hereunder with respect to such Letter of Credit.

(l)Designation of Additional Issuing Lenders. From time to time, the Borrower may by notice to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders designate as additional Issuing Lenders one or more Lenders that agree to serve in such capacity as provided below. The acceptance by a Lender of any appointment as an Issuing Lender hereunder shall be evidenced by an agreement (an “Issuing Lender Agreement”), which shall be in a form satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, shall set forth the LOC Commitment of such Lender and shall be executed by such Xxxxxx, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and, from and after the effective date of such agreement, (i) such Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender under this Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents and (ii) references herein and in the other Credit Documents to the term “Issuing Lender” shall be deemed to include such Lender in its capacity as an Issuing Lender.

(m)Termination of an Issuing Lender. An Issuing Lender may be terminated as Issuing Lender by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such termination of an Issuing Lender. At the time any such termination shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the terminated Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.4(b). After the termination of an Issuing Lender hereunder, the terminated Issuing Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender under this Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such termination, but shall not be required to amend, renew (other than automatic renewal pursuant to the terms of such Letter of Credit) or extend any such Letter of Credit or to issue additional Letters of Credit. The termination of any Issuing Lender shall not affect the LOC Commitment of any other Lender.

(n)Existing Letters of Credit. As of the Restatement Effective Date, without further action on the part of any Person, each Existing Letter of Credit shall be automatically deemed to be a Letter of Credit issued hereunder for all purposes of this Credit Agreement, and the original issuing lender of each such Letter of Credit shall be the Issuing Lender thereof for all purposes hereof.

1.3Swing Line Loans Subfacility.

(a)Swing Line Loans. The Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender and the Lenders agree that in order to facilitate the administration of this Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents, the Swing Line Lender may (but shall have absolutely no obligation to) make loans (each a “Swing Line Loan” and collectively, the “Swing Line Loans”) to the Borrower, in Dollars, at any time and from time to time, during the period from and including the Restatement Effective Date to but not including the Revolving Maturity Date (or such earlier date on which the Commitments have been terminated as provided herein) on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein and in the other Credit Documents; provided that, after giving effect to the issuance of any such Swing Line Loan, (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Swing Line Loans outstanding at any one time shall not exceed $50,000,000 (the “Swing Line

Subfacility Amount”) at any time and (ii) the sum of (A) the aggregate amount of Swing Line Loans outstanding, plus (B) the aggregate amount of the Dollar Equivalent of Revolving Loans outstanding, plus (C) the aggregate amount of the Dollar Equivalent of LOC Obligations outstanding shall not exceed the Revolving Committed Amount. Subject to the terms of this Credit Agreement, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Swing Line Loans.

(b)Method of Borrowing and Funding Swing Line Loans. By no later than 1:00 p.m., New York City Time, on the date of the requested borrowing of Swing Line Loans, the Borrower shall provide telephone notice to the Swing Line Lender, followed promptly by a written Swing Line Loan Request in the form of Exhibit 2.3(b) (which may be submitted by fax), setting forth (i) the amount of the requested Swing Line Loan and (ii) the date of the requested Swing Line Loan and complying in all respects with Section 5.2. If the Swing Line Lender elects to make such Swing Line Loans, the Swing Line Lender shall initiate the transfer of funds representing the Swing Line Loan advance to the Borrower by 3:00 p.m., New York City Time, on the Business Day of the requested borrowing.

(c)Repayment and Participations of Swing Line Loans. The Borrower agrees to repay each Swing Line Loan immediately upon the existence of a Default or Event of Default or otherwise on the earlier of the Revolving Maturity Date and the first date after such Swing Line Loan is made that is the 15th or last day of a calendar month and is at least three Business Days after such Swing Line Loan is made; provided that on each date that a borrowing of Revolving Loans denominated in Dollars is made, the Borrower shall repay all Swing Line Loans that were outstanding on the date such borrowing was requested. Each repayment of a Swing Line Loan may be accomplished by requesting Revolving Loans which request is not subject to the conditions set forth in Section 5.2. In the event that the Borrower shall fail to timely repay any Swing Line Loan, and in any event upon (i) a request by the Swing Line Lender, (ii) the occurrence of an Event of Default described in Section 9.1(f) or (iii) the acceleration of any Loan or termination of any Commitment pursuant to Section 9.2, each Revolving Lender shall promptly irrevocably and unconditionally purchase from the Swing Line Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to such other Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment Percentage thereof, by directly purchasing a participation in such Swing Line Loan in such amount (regardless of whether the conditions precedent thereto set forth in Section 5.2 are then satisfied, whether or not the Borrower has submitted a Notice of Borrowing and whether or not the Commitments are then in effect, any Event of Default exists or all the Loans have been accelerated) and paying the proceeds thereof to the Swing Line Lender at the Agency Services Address, or at such other address as the Swing Line Lender may designate, in Dollars and in immediately available funds. If such Participant does not pay such amount forthwith upon the Swing Line Lender’s demand therefor, and until such time as such Participant makes the required payment, the Swing Line Lender shall be deemed to continue to have outstanding Swing Line Loans in the amount of such unpaid participation obligation for all purposes of the Credit Documents other than those provisions requiring the other Participants to purchase a participation therein. Further, such Participant shall be deemed to have assigned any and all payments made of principal and interest on its Loans, and any other amounts due to it hereunder to the Swing Line Lender to fund Swing Line Loans in the amount of the participation in Swing Line Loans that such Participant failed to purchase pursuant to this Section 2.3(c) until such amount has been purchased (as a result of such assignment or otherwise).

(d)Swing Line Loan Note. The Swing Line Loans made by the Swing Line Lender shall, if requested by the Swing Line Lender, be evidenced by a duly executed promissory note of the Borrower to the Swing Line Lender in substantially the form of Exhibit 2.3(d).

1.4Continuations and Conversions.

Subject to the terms below, the Borrower shall have the option, on any Business Day, to continue existing Term Benchmark Loans for a subsequent Interest Period, to convert Base Rate Loans into Term Benchmark Loans denominated in Dollars or to convert Term Benchmark Loans denominated in Dollars into Base Rate Loans. By no later than 11:00 a.m., New York City Time, (a) on the date of the requested conversion of a Term Benchmark Loan denominated in Dollars to a Base Rate Loan or (b) three U.S. Government Securities Business Days prior to the date of the requested continuation of a Term Benchmark Loan denominated in Dollars or conversion of a Base Rate Loan to a Term Benchmark Loan denominated in Dollars or (c) three Business Days prior to the date of the requested continuation of a Term Benchmark Loan denominated in Euros, the Borrower shall provide a written Notice of Continuation/Conversion, in the form of Exhibit 2.4, submitted by hand delivery, fax or email, to the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a continuation or conversion of Loans denominated in Dollars to Loans denominated in Dollars, telephonic notice, confirmed promptly by hand delivery, fax or email to the Administrative Agent of a written Notice of Continuation/Conversion, in the form of Exhibit 2.4) setting forth (i) whether the Borrower wishes to continue or convert such Loans and (ii) if the request is to continue a Term Benchmark Loan or convert a Base Rate Loan to a Term Benchmark Loan, the Interest Period applicable thereto. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (A) except as provided in Section 3.11, Term Benchmark Loans may only be continued or converted into Base Rate Loans on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (B) Term Benchmark Loans may not be continued nor may Base Rate Loans be converted into Term Benchmark Loans during the existence and continuation of an Event of Default, (C) any request to continue a Term Benchmark Loan that fails to comply with the terms hereof or any failure to request a continuation of a Term Benchmark Loan at the end of an Interest Period shall constitute a conversion to a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the applicable Interest Period; provided, however, that in the case of a failure to timely request a continuation of Term Benchmark Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency or if any such request fails to comply with the terms hereof, such Loans shall be continued as Term Benchmark Loans in their original currency with an Interest Period of one month, and (D) any failure to state the Interest Period with respect to the continuation of a Term Benchmark Loan or the conversion of a Base Rate Loan to a Term Benchmark Loan shall constitute a request for a one month Interest Period. No Revolving Loans may be converted into or continued as Revolving Loans denominated in a different currency, but instead must be prepaid in the original currency of such Revolving Loans and reborrowed in the other currency. It is understood and agreed that Swing Line Loans may not be continued or converted.

1.5Minimum Amounts.

Each request for a borrowing, conversion or continuation shall be subject to the requirements that (a) each Term Benchmark Loan and RFR Loan shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and not less than the Borrowing Minimum, (b) each Base Rate Loan shall be in a minimum amount of the lesser of $5,000,000 (and in integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof) or the remaining available Revolving Committed Amount, (c) each Swing Line Loan shall be in a minimum amount of the lesser of $1,000,000 (and in integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof) or the remaining available Swing Line Subfacility Amount and (d) no more than 10 Term Benchmark Loans and RFR Loans shall be outstanding hereunder at any one time. For the purposes of this Section 2.5, all Term Benchmark Loans denominated in the same currency with the same Interest Periods that begin and end on the same date shall be considered as one Term Benchmark Loan, but Term Benchmark Loans with different Interest Periods, even if they begin on the same date, shall be considered as separate Term Benchmark Loans.

1.6Defaulting Lenders.

Notwithstanding any provision of this Credit Agreement to the contrary, if any Revolving Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Revolving Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(a)Facility Fees shall cease to accrue on the Revolving Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 3.4(a);

(b)the Revolving Commitment and Revolving Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders or any other requisite Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder or under any other Credit Document (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 11.6); provided that any amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or all Lenders affected thereby shall, except as otherwise provided in Section 11.6, require the consent of such Defaulting Lender in accordance with the terms hereof;

(c)if any Swing Line Exposure or LOC Obligation exists at the time such Revolving Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

(i)the Swing Line Exposure and LOC Obligations of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Loan Commitment Percentages but only to the extent that the sum of all Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s Swing Line Exposure and LOC Obligations does not exceed the sum of all Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Commitments;

(ii)if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (A) first, prepay the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Swing Line Exposure that has not been reallocated and (B) second, cash collateralize for the benefit of the Issuing Lenders the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LOC Obligations that has not been reallocated for so long as such LOC Obligations are outstanding by depositing cash in such amount in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders;

(iii)if the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LOC Obligations pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall not be required to pay Letter of Credit Fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 3.4(b) with respect to such portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LOC Obligations for so long as such Defaulting Lender’s LOC Obligations are cash collateralized;

(iv)if any portion of the LOC Obligations of such Defaulting Lender is reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Sections 3.4(a) and 3.4(b) shall be adjusted to give effect to such reallocation; and

(v)if such Defaulting Lender’s LOC Obligations or Swing Line Exposure or any portion thereof are not repaid or reallocated or cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any Issuing Lender or any other Lender hereunder, all Facility Fees

that otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Lender (solely with respect to the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment utilized by such LOC Obligations and Swing Line Exposure) and Letter of Credit Fees payable under Section 3.4(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LOC Obligations shall be payable to the relevant Issuing Lender and the Swing Line Lender, as its interests may appear, until and to the extent that such LOC Obligation and Swing Line Exposure is reallocated and/or cash collateralized or repaid.

In the event that (x) any event described in Section 9.1(f) with respect to a Revolving Lender Parent shall have occurred following the Restatement Effective Date and for so long as such Event of Default under Section 9.1(f) shall continue or (y) any Issuing Lender has a good faith belief that any Revolving Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations under one or more other agreements in which such Lender commits to extend credit, no Issuing Lender shall be required to issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit unless such Issuing Lender shall have entered into arrangements with the Borrower or such Revolving Lender satisfactory to such Issuing Lender to defease any risk to it in respect of such Lender hereunder.

In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower, the Swing Line Lender and the Issuing Lenders agree that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then (i) the Swing Line Exposure and LOC Obligation of the Revolving Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment, (ii) on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Revolving Loans of the other Revolving Lenders (other than Swing Line Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Revolving Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Revolving Loan Commitment Percentage and (iii) any and all cash collateral provided by the Borrower in respect of such Defaulting Lender’s Swing Line Exposure or LOC Obligations in accordance with Section 2.6(c)(ii) above shall be immediately released to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall promptly execute such documents as may be necessary to give effect to such release.

1.7Incremental Facilities.

(a)The Borrower may on one or more occasions, by written notice to the Administrative Agent and with the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Incremental Lenders, request (i) during the period from and including the Restatement Effective Date to but not including the Revolving Maturity Date (or any earlier date on which the Commitments have been terminated as provided herein), the establishment of Incremental Revolving Commitments and/or (ii) the establishment of Incremental Term Commitments, provided that the aggregate principal amount of all the Incremental Commitments established hereunder shall not exceed $500,000,000 (the “Incremental Committed Amount”). Each such notice shall specify (A) the date on which the Borrower proposes that the Incremental Revolving Commitments or the Incremental Term Commitments, as applicable, shall be effective, which shall be a date not less than 10 Business Days (or such shorter period as may be agreed to by the Administrative Agent) after the date on which such notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent and (B) the amount of the Incremental Revolving Commitments or Incremental Term Commitments, as applicable, being requested (it being agreed that (x) any Lender approached to provide any Incremental Revolving Commitment or Incremental Term Commitment may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide such Incremental Revolving Commitment or Incremental Term Commitment and (y) any Person that the Borrower proposes to become an Incremental Lender, if such Person is not then a Lender, must be an Eligible Assignee).

(b)The terms and conditions of any Incremental Revolving Commitment and loans and other extensions of credit to be made thereunder shall be identical to those of the Revolving Commitments and Loans and other extensions of credit made hereunder, and shall be treated as a

single class with such Revolving Commitments and Loans. The terms and conditions of any Incremental Term Commitments and the Incremental Term Loans to be made thereunder shall be as set forth in the applicable Incremental Facility Agreement; provided that (i) no Incremental Term Maturity Date shall be earlier than, and no Incremental Term Loans shall require any repayment or prepayment of any principal amount thereof (other than amortization payments not in excess of 1% per annum of the initial principal amount of such Incremental Term Loans) prior to, the Revolving Maturity Date, (ii) Incremental Term Loans shall not have the benefit of any guarantees or collateral that do not equally benefit the Revolving Commitments and Loans and (iii) Incremental Term Loans shall not have the benefit of any representation or warranty, covenant or event of default other than those set forth herein. Any Incremental Term Commitments established pursuant to an Incremental Facility Agreement that have identical terms and conditions, and any Incremental Term Loans made thereunder, shall be designated as a separate series (each a “Series”) of Incremental Term Commitments and Incremental Term Loans for all purposes of this Credit Agreement.

(c)The Incremental Commitments shall be effected pursuant to one or more Incremental Facility Agreements executed and delivered by the Borrower, each Incremental Lender providing such Incremental Commitments and the Administrative Agent; provided that no Incremental Commitments shall become effective unless (i) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of effectiveness thereof, both immediately prior to and immediately after giving effect to such Incremental Commitments and the making of Loans and issuance of Letters of Credit thereunder on such date, (ii) on the date of effectiveness thereof, the representations and warranties of the Borrower set forth in the Credit Documents shall be true and correct (A) in the case of the representations and warranties qualified as to materiality, in all respects and (B) otherwise, in all material respects, in each case on and as of such date, except in the case of any such representation and warranty that expressly relates to a prior date, in which case such representation and warranty shall be so true and correct on and as of such prior date, (iii) after giving effect to such Incremental Commitments and the making of Loans and other extensions of credit thereunder on the date of effectiveness thereof, the Borrower shall be in pro forma compliance with the financial covenant set forth in Section 7.2, (iv) the Borrower shall make any payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.14 in connection with such Incremental Commitments and the related transactions under this Section and (v) the Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent such legal opinions, board resolutions, secretary’s certificates, officer’s certificates and other documents as shall reasonably be requested by the Administrative Agent in connection with any such transaction. Each Incremental Facility Agreement may, without the consent of any Lender, effect such amendments to this Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to give effect to the provisions of this Section.

(d)Upon the effectiveness of an Incremental Commitment of any Incremental Lender, (i) such Incremental Lender shall be deemed to be a “Lender” (and a Lender in respect of Commitments and Loans of the applicable class) hereunder, and henceforth shall be entitled to all the rights of, and benefits accruing to, Lenders (or Lenders in respect of Commitments and Loans of the applicable class) hereunder and shall be bound by all agreements, acknowledgements and other obligations of Lenders (or Lenders in respect of Commitments and Loans of the applicable class) hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, and (ii) in the case of any Incremental Revolving Commitment, (A) in the case of an Incremental Lender that does not already have a Revolving Commitment, such Incremental Revolving Commitment shall constitute the Revolving Commitment of such Incremental Lender and (B) in the case of an Incremental Lender that already has a Revolving Commitment, the Revolving Commitment of such Incremental Lender shall be increased by the amount of such Incremental Revolving Commitment, in each case, subject to further increase or reduction from time to time as set forth in the definition of the term “Revolving Commitment”. For the avoidance of doubt, upon the

effectiveness of any Incremental Revolving Commitment, the Revolving Exposure of the Incremental Revolving Lender holding such Incremental Revolving Commitment, and the Revolving Loan Commitment Percentages of all the Revolving Lenders, shall automatically be adjusted to give effect thereto.

(e)On the date of effectiveness of any Incremental Revolving Commitments, each Revolving Lender shall assign to each Incremental Revolving Lender holding such Incremental Revolving Commitment, and each such Incremental Revolving Lender shall purchase from each Revolving Lender, at the principal amount thereof (together with accrued interest), such interests in the Revolving Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans outstanding on such date as shall be necessary in order that, after giving effect to all such assignments and purchases, such Revolving Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans will be held by all the Revolving Lenders (including such Incremental Revolving Lenders) ratably in accordance with their Revolving Loan Commitment Percentages after giving effect to the effectiveness of such Incremental Revolving Commitment.

(f)Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the applicable Incremental Facility Agreement, each Incremental Term Lender holding an Incremental Term Commitment of any Series shall make a loan to the Borrower in an amount equal to such Incremental Term Commitment on the date specified in such Incremental Facility Agreement.

(g)The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders promptly upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of any notice from the Borrower referred to in this Section and of the effectiveness of any Incremental Commitments, in each case advising the Lenders of the details thereof and, in the case of effectiveness of any Incremental Revolving Commitments, of the Revolving Loan Commitment Percentages of the Revolving Lenders after giving effect thereto and of the assignments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.7(e).

1.8Extension of Revolving Maturity Date.

(a)Not earlier than 12 months after the Restatement Effective Date, nor later than 30 days prior to the Revolving Maturity Date (provided, that the Borrower may not exercise such right more than twice), the Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders), request a one-year extension of the Revolving Maturity Date then in effect (an “Extension Request”); provided that the Revolving Maturity Date may not be extended more than once in any 12-month period. Within 10 Business Days after the delivery of such Extension Request, each Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower whether or not it consents to such Extension Request (which consent may be given or withheld in such Lender’s sole and absolute discretion) (each Lender agreeing to a requested extension being called an “Extending Lender” and each Lender declining to agree to a requested extension being called a “Non-Extending Lender”). Any Lender with a then effective Commitment may consent to an Extension Request irrespective of whether such Xxxxxx previously had not been an Extending Lender with respect to a previous Extension Request. Any Lender not responding within the above specified time period shall be deemed not to have consented to such Extension Request. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the Lenders’ responses.

(b)The Revolving Maturity Date shall be extended only if the Required Lenders (calculated excluding any Defaulting Lender and prior to giving effect to any replacements of Lenders permitted herein) have consented to the Extension Request. For each such Extension Request, if so approved, (i) the Revolving Maturity Date, as to Extending Lenders (irrespective of whether such Xxxxxx previously had been a Non-Extending Lender), shall be extended to the same date in the following year after giving effect to any prior extensions (such existing Revolving Maturity Date being the “Extension Effective Date”) and (ii) the Revolving Maturity

Date, as to any Non-Extending Lender, shall remain the Revolving Maturity Date in effect for such Non-Extending Lender prior to the Extension Effective Date. With respect to any previously Non-Extending Lender who is an Extending Lender with respect to a current Extension Request, by giving its consent, such Extending Lender shall be approving an extension of more than one year. Non-Extending Lenders shall remain Lenders until the Revolving Maturity Date applicable to such Lenders, at which time their Commitments shall terminate and the Borrower shall repay all Loans owing to such Lenders, together with any accrued interest thereon and any accrued fees and other amounts payable to or for the account of such Non-Extending Lenders hereunder, and shall make such other prepayments of the Loans as shall be required in order that, after giving effect to the termination of the Commitments of, and all payments to, Non-Extending Lenders pursuant to this Section, (i) no Lender’s Credit Exposure shall exceed such Lender’s Commitment and (ii) the Credit Exposures shall not exceed the total Commitments. The Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall promptly confirm to the Lenders such extension of the Revolving Maturity Date, specifying the date of such confirmation (the “Extension Confirmation Date”), the Extension Effective Date, and the extended Revolving Maturity Date with respect to the Extending Lenders. As condition precedents to such extension, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent (i) such evidence of authorization, reaffirmations and legal opinions as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request and (ii) a certificate of the Borrower dated as of the Extension Confirmation Date signed by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower certifying that immediately before and immediately after giving effect to such extension, the representations and warranties contained in Section 6 made by it are true and correct (A) in the case of the representations and warranties qualified as to materiality, in all respects and (B) otherwise, in all material respects, in each case on and as of the Extension Confirmation Date, except in the case of any such representation and warranty that expressly relates to a prior date, in which case such representation and warranty shall be so true and correct on and as of such earlier date.

(c)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.8, the Revolving Maturity Date may not be extended with respect to any Issuing Lender without the prior written consent of such Issuing Lender (it being understood and agreed that, in the event any Issuing Lender shall not have consented to any such extension, (i) such Issuing Lender shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender hereunder through the applicable existing Revolving Maturity Date and thereafter shall have no obligation to issue, amend, extend or renew any Letter of Credit (but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits hereunder as to Letters of Credit issued prior to such time) and (ii) the Borrower shall cause the LOC Obligations attributable to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender to be zero no later than the day on which such LOC Obligations would have been required to have been reduced to zero in accordance with the terms hereof without giving effect to the effectiveness of the extension of the applicable existing Revolving Maturity Date pursuant to this Section 2.8 (and, in any event, no later than such existing Revolving Maturity Date) together with any accrued interest thereon, on the existing Revolving Maturity Date).

(d)In connection with any extension of the Revolving Maturity Date under this Section 2.8, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may, without the consent of any Lender or Issuing Lender, effect such amendments to this Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to give effect to the provisions of this Section 2.8.

SECTION 3

(a)Interest Rate. Subject to Section 3.1(b), (i) each Base Rate Loan shall accrue interest at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Percentage, (ii) each Term Benchmark Loan denominated in Dollars shall accrue interest at the Adjusted Term SOFR for the Interest Period in effect for such Loan plus the Applicable Percentage, (iii) each Term Benchmark Loan denominated in Euros shall accrue interest at the Adjusted EURIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Loan plus the Applicable Percentage, (iv) each RFR Loan denominated in Sterling shall accrue interest at the Adjusted Daily Simple XXXXX Rate plus the Applicable Percentage, (v) each RFR Loan denominated in Dollars shall accrue interest at the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR plus the Applicable Percentage and (vi) each Swing Line Loan shall accrue interest at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Percentage.

Upon the occurrence, and during the continuation, of an Event of Default pursuant to Section 9.1(a), the principal of and, to the extent permitted by law, interest on the Loans and any other amounts owing hereunder or under the other Credit Documents (including without limitation fees and expenses) but not paid when due shall bear interest, payable on demand, at a per annum rate equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% plus the rate which would otherwise be applicable, or (ii) in the case of any other amount, the Base Rate plus the Applicable Percentage plus 2% per annum.

(c)Interest Payments. Except as set forth in clause (b) above, interest on Loans shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date.

1.2Place and Manner of Payments.

All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein and except with respect to principal of and interest on Loans and drawings under Letters of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, all payments by the Borrower hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders or the relevant Issuing Lender, as applicable, to which such payment is owed, at the applicable Agency Services Address in Dollars and in Same Day Funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified herein. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower hereunder with respect to principal and interest on Loans or in respect of drawings under Letters of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency shall be made to the Administrative Agent for the account of the respective Lenders (or for the account of the relevant Issuing Lender, as applicable) to which such payment is owed, at the applicable Agency Services Address in such Alternative Currency and in Same Day Funds not later than the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower in writing on the dates specified herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may require that any payments due under this Credit Agreement be made in the United States. If, for any reason, the Borrower is prohibited by any Law from making any required payment hereunder in an Alternative Currency, the Borrower shall make such payment in Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of the Alternative Currency payment amount. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its pro rata share of such payment (based upon the applicable Commitments of the Lenders) in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Xxxxxx’s Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent (i) after 2:00 p.m. New York City time, in the case of payments in Dollars, or (ii) after the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent in writing to the Borrower in the case of payments in an Alternative Currency, shall in each case be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to

accrue. If any payment to be made by the Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.

1.3Prepayments.

(a)Voluntary Prepayments. The Borrower shall have the right to prepay Loans in whole or in part from time to time without premium or penalty; provided, however, that the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of Swing Line Loans, the Swing Line Lender) by telephone (confirmed by telecopy or electronic mail) of any prepayment hereunder (i) (A) in the case of prepayment of Term Benchmark Loans denominated in Dollars, not later than 3:00 p.m., New York City time, three U.S. Government Securities Business Days before the date of prepayment, (B) in the case of prepayment of Term Benchmark Loans denominated in Euros, not later than 3:00 p.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment, (C) in the case of prepayment of RFR Loans denominated in Sterling, not later than four RFR Business Days before the date of prepayment, (D) in the case of prepayment of RFR Loans denominated in Dollars, not later than three U.S. Government Securities Business Days before the date of prepayment and (E) in the case of prepayment of Base Rate Loans, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date of prepayment, and (ii) each such partial prepayment of Term Benchmark Loans, Base Rate Loans or Swing Line Loans shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of a borrowing of such Loans in the currency thereof as provided in Section 2.5. Amounts prepaid pursuant to this Section 3.3(a) shall be applied as the Borrower may elect; however, if the Borrower fails to specify, such prepayment will be applied in the manner set forth in Section 3.3(c) below.

(b)Mandatory Prepayments. If at any time (i) the sum of the aggregate amount of the Dollar Equivalent of outstanding Revolving Loans plus the aggregate amount of the Dollar Equivalent of outstanding LOC Obligations plus the aggregate amount of outstanding Swing Line Loans exceeds the Revolving Committed Amount, (ii) the aggregate amount of the Dollar Equivalent of outstanding LOC Obligations exceeds the LOC Committed Amount or (iii) the aggregate amount of the Dollar Equivalent of Revolving Loans and LOC Obligations in Alternative Currencies exceeds the Foreign Currency Sublimit, the Borrower shall immediately make a principal payment to the Administrative Agent (or with respect to LOC Obligations an amount to be held as cash collateral) in a manner and in an amount (and in the applicable currency) necessary to be in compliance with Sections 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3, as applicable and as directed by the Administrative Agent (any such prepayment with respect to clause (i) above to be applied as set forth in Section 3.3(c) below).

(c)Application of Prepayments. All amounts paid pursuant to Section 3.3(b)(i) and, solely if the Borrower has not otherwise elected an application of such amounts as contemplated in Section 3.3(a), all amounts paid pursuant to Section 3.3(a) shall be applied first to Swing Line Loans, second, to Revolving Loans (first to Base Rate Loans and then to Term Benchmark Loans in direct order of Interest Period maturities) and third, to a cash collateral account in respect of LOC Obligations. All prepayments under this Section 3.3 shall be subject to Section 3.14.

1.4Fees.

(a)Facility Fees. In consideration of the commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility being made available by the Lenders hereunder, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent a per annum fee (the “Facility Fee”) in Dollars for the pro rata benefit of each Revolving Lender (based upon such Xxxxxx’s pro rata committed portion of the Revolving Committed Amount), which Facility Fee shall be calculated by multiplying, at any time of determination, the Applicable Percentage then in effect for the Facility Fee, by the daily average amount of the Revolving Committed Amount (whether or not drawn or available to be drawn)

during the fiscal quarter or other relevant period for which such Facility Fee is being calculated. The Facility Fee shall accrue from the Restatement Effective Date and shall be due and payable in arrears on the fifteenth day after the end of each fiscal quarter of the Borrower for such fiscal quarter, or period ended thereon, and on the Revolving Maturity Date, with the first such payment to be made on the last day of the first full fiscal quarter following the Restatement Effective Date.

(b)Letter of Credit Fees.

(i)Letter of Credit Fees. In consideration of the issuance of Letters of Credit hereunder, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the pro rata benefit of each Revolving Lender (based on each Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment Percentage), a per annum fee (the “Letter of Credit Fees”) in Dollars for each Letter of Credit equal to the Applicable Percentage for Letter of Credit Fees on the average daily maximum amount available to be drawn under each such Letter of Credit (whether or not such maximum amount is then in effect under such Letter of Credit) from the date of issuance to the date of expiration. The Letter of Credit Fees will be payable in arrears on the fifteenth day following the last day of March, June, September and December of each fiscal year of the Borrower for such fiscal quarter, or period ended thereon, and on the Revolving Maturity Date, with the first such payment to be made on the third Business Day following the last day of the first full fiscal quarter following the Restatement Effective Date.

(ii)Issuing Lender Fees. In addition to the Letter of Credit Fees payable pursuant to subsection (i) above, the Borrower shall pay to each Issuing Lender for its own account, without sharing by the other Lenders, (A) the customary, incidental and/or out of pocket charges from time to time of such Issuing Lender for its services in connection with the issuance, amendment, payment, transfer, administration, cancellation and conversion of, and drawings under, Letters of Credit and (B) with respect to each Letter of Credit, a letter of credit fronting fee in Dollars at a rate per annum agreed to between the Borrower and such Issuing Lender of the face amount of each Letter of Credit, payable quarterly on the fifteenth day following the last day of March, June, September and December of each fiscal year of the Borrower for such fiscal quarter, and on the Revolving Maturity Date (collectively, the “Issuing Lender Fees”).

(c)Administrative Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, an annual fee in Dollars as agreed to between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent as set forth in the JPMorgan Engagement Letter.

1.5Payment in Full at Maturity.

On the Revolving Maturity Date, the entire outstanding principal balance of all Revolving Loans, all Swing Line Loans and all LOC Obligations, together with accrued but unpaid interest and all other sums owing with respect thereto, shall be due and payable in full, unless accelerated sooner pursuant to Section 9.2.

1.6Computations of Interest and Fees.

(a)All computations of interest and fees hereunder shall be made on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days; provided that in the case of (i) Base Rate Loans and Swing Line Loans that are based upon the Prime Rate, interest shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, (ii) Loans denominated in Sterling, interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days and (iii) Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies, other than Sterling, as to which market

practice differs from the foregoing, interest shall be computed in accordance with such market practice. Interest shall accrue from and include the date of borrowing (or continuation or conversion) but exclude the date of payment.

(b)It is the intent of the Lenders and the Borrower to conform to and contract in strict compliance with applicable usury law from time to time in effect. All agreements between the Lenders and the Borrower are hereby limited by the provisions of this paragraph, which shall override and control all such agreements, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether written or oral. In no way, nor in any event or contingency (including but not limited to prepayment or acceleration of the maturity of any obligation), shall the interest taken, reserved, contracted for, charged, or received under this Credit Agreement, under the Notes or otherwise, exceed the maximum nonusurious amount permissible under applicable law. If, from any possible construction of any of the Credit Documents or any other document, interest would otherwise be payable in excess of the maximum nonusurious amount, any such construction shall be subject to the provisions of this paragraph and such documents shall be automatically reduced to the maximum nonusurious amount permitted under applicable law, without the necessity of execution of any amendment or new document. If any Lender shall ever receive anything of value which is characterized as interest on the Loans under applicable law and which would, apart from this provision, be in excess of the maximum nonusurious amount, an amount equal to the amount which would have been excessive interest shall, without penalty, be applied to the reduction of the principal amount owing on the Loans and not to the payment of interest, or refunded to the Borrower or the other payor thereof if and to the extent such amount which would have been excessive exceeds such unpaid principal amount of the Loans. The right to demand payment of the Loans or any other Indebtedness evidenced by any of the Credit Documents does not include the right to accelerate the payment of any interest which has not otherwise accrued on the date of such demand, and the Lenders do not intend to charge or receive any unearned interest in the event of such demand. All interest paid or agreed to be paid to the Lenders with respect to the Loans shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term (including any renewal or extension) of the Loans so that the amount of interest on account of such Indebtedness does not exceed the maximum nonusurious amount permitted by applicable law.

1.7Pro Rata Treatment.

Except to the extent otherwise provided herein:

(a)Revolving Loans. Except as otherwise provided herein, each Revolving Loan borrowing (including, without limitation, each Mandatory Borrowing), each payment or prepayment of principal of any Revolving Loan, each payment of fees (other than the Issuing Lender Fees retained by each Issuing Lender for its own account and fees under the JPMorgan Engagement Letter and JPMorgan Fee Letter retained by the Administrative Agent for its own account), each reduction of the Revolving Committed Amount and each conversion or continuation of any Revolving Loan shall (except as otherwise provided in Section 3.11) be allocated pro rata among the relevant Lenders in accordance with the respective Revolving Loan Commitment Percentages of such Lenders, as applicable (or, if the Commitments of such Lenders have expired or been terminated, in accordance with the respective principal amounts of the outstanding Revolving Loans and Participation Interests of such Lenders); provided that, if any Lender shall have failed to pay its applicable pro rata share of any Revolving Loan, then any amount to which such Lender would otherwise be entitled pursuant to this subsection (a) shall instead be payable to the Administrative Agent until the share of such Loan not funded by such Lender has been repaid; provided further, that in the event any amount paid to any Lender pursuant to this subsection (a) is recovered from or must otherwise be returned by the Administrative Agent, each Lender shall, upon the request of the

Administrative Agent, repay to the Administrative Agent the amount so paid to such Lender, with interest for the period commencing on the date such payment is returned by the Administrative Agent until the date the Administrative Agent receives such repayment at a rate per annum equal to (i) if the applicable Loan is denominated in Dollars, during the period to but excluding the date two Business Days after such request, the Federal Funds Rate, and thereafter, the Base Rate plus 2% per annum and (ii) if the applicable Loan is denominated in an Alternative Currency, during the period to but excluding the date two Business Days after such request, at the customary rate for the applicable currency set by the Administrative Agent for the correction of errors among banks, and thereafter, the Adjusted Term SOFR or the EURIBO Rate, as applicable, plus 2% per annum.

(b)Letters of Credit. Except as otherwise provided herein, each payment of unreimbursed drawings in respect of LOC Obligations shall be allocated to each Participant pro rata in accordance with its Revolving Loan Commitment Percentage; provided that, if any Participant shall have failed to pay its applicable pro rata share of any drawing under any Letter of Credit, then any amount to which such Participant would otherwise be entitled pursuant to this subsection (b) shall instead be payable to the relevant Issuing Lender until the share of such unreimbursed drawing not funded by such Lender has been repaid; provided further, that in the event any amount paid to any Participant pursuant to this subsection (b) is recovered from or must otherwise be returned by any Issuing Lender, each Participant shall, upon the request of such Issuing Lender, repay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Lender the amount so paid to such Participant, with interest for the period commencing on the date such payment is returned by such Issuing Lender until the date such Issuing Lender receives such repayment at a rate per annum equal to (i) if the applicable drawing under a Letter of Credit is denominated in Dollars, during the period to but excluding the date two Business Days after such request, the Federal Funds Rate, and thereafter, the Base Rate plus 2% per annum and (ii) if the applicable drawing under a Letter of Credit is denominated in an Alternative Currency, during the period to but excluding the date two Business Days after such request, at the customary rate for the applicable currency set by the Administrative Agent for the correction of errors among banks, and thereafter, the Adjusted Term SOFR or the EURIBO Rate, as applicable, plus 2% per annum.

(c)Swing Line Loans. The Swing Line Lender shall receive, for its own account, all payments or prepayments of principal and interest with respect to the Swing Line Loans; provided, however, upon the funding of the Participants’ participation interests with respect to a Swing Line Loan pursuant to Section 2.3(c), such Participants shall be entitled to receive their pro rata share of any payment or prepayment of principal and interest with respect to such Swing Line Loan.

1.8Sharing of Payments.

The Lenders agree among themselves that, except to the extent otherwise provided herein, in the event that any Lender shall obtain payment in respect of any Loan, unreimbursed drawing with respect to any LOC Obligations or any other obligation owing to such Lender under this Credit Agreement through the exercise of a right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim, or pursuant to a secured claim under Section 506 of the Bankruptcy Code or other security or interest arising from, or in lieu of, such secured claim, received by such Lender under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law or otherwise, or by any other means, in excess of its pro rata share of such payment as provided for in this Credit Agreement, such Lender shall promptly pay in cash or purchase from the other Lenders a participation in such Loans, LOC Obligations, and other obligations in such amounts, and make such other adjustments from time to time, as shall be equitable to the end that all Lenders share such

payment in accordance with their respective ratable shares as provided for in this Credit Agreement. The Lenders further agree among themselves that if payment to a Lender obtained by such Lender through the exercise of a right of setoff, banker’s lien, counterclaim or other event as aforesaid shall be rescinded or must otherwise be restored, each Lender which shall have shared the benefit of such payment shall, by payment in cash or a repurchase of a participation theretofore sold, return its share of that benefit (together with its share of any accrued interest payable with respect thereto) to each Lender whose payment shall have been rescinded or otherwise restored. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing such a participation may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all rights of payment, including setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim, with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a holder of such Loan, LOC Obligation or other obligation in the amount of such participation. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Credit Agreement, if any Lender or the Administrative Agent shall fail to remit to any other Lender an amount payable by such Lender or the Administrative Agent to such other Lender pursuant to this Credit Agreement on the date when such amount is due, such payments shall be made together with interest thereon for each date from the date such amount is due until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent or such other Lender at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate. If under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, any Lender receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff to which this Section 3.8 applies, such Lender shall, to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of the Lenders under this Section 3.8 to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim.

1.9Capital Adequacy.

If, after the date thereof, any Lender determines that a Change in Law has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital or assets of such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender as a consequence of such Xxxxxx’s obligations hereunder (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity and such Xxxxxx’s desired return on capital), then from time to time upon demand of such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction.

1.10Alternate Rate of Interest.

(a)Subject to clauses (b), (c), (d), (e), (f) and (g) of this Section 3.10, if:

(i)the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) (A) prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Term Benchmark Loan, that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted Term SOFR (including because the Term SOFR Reference Rate is not available or published on a current basis) or the Adjusted EURIBO Rate or the EURIBO Rate (including because the Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis), for the applicable Agreed Currency and such Interest Period or (B) at any time, that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Daily Simple XXXXX Xxxx, XXXXX or the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR for the applicable Agreed Currency; or

(ii)the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that (A) prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Term Benchmark Borrowing, the Adjusted Term SOFR or the Adjusted EURIBO Rate or the EURIBO Rate for the applicable Agreed Currency and such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for the applicable Agreed Currency and such Interest Period

or (B) at any time, the applicable Daily Simple XXXXX Xxxx, XXXXX or Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR for the applicable Agreed Currency will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for the applicable Agreed Currency;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone, telecopy or electronic mail as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until (x) the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist with respect to the relevant Benchmark and (y) the Borrower delivers a new Notice of Continuation/Conversion in accordance with the terms of Section 2.4 or a new Notice of Borrowing in accordance with the terms of Section 2.1(b), (A) for Loans denominated in Dollars, (1) any Notice of Continuation/Conversion that requests the conversion of any Revolving Borrowing to, or continuation of any Revolving Borrowing as, a Term Benchmark Borrowing shall be ineffective and any Notice of Borrowing requests a Term Benchmark Borrowing shall instead be deemed to be a Notice of Continuation/Conversion or a Notice of Borrowing, as applicable, for (x) an RFR Loan denominated in Dollars so long as the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is not also the subject of Section 3.10(a)(i) or (ii) above or (y) a Base Rate Loan if the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR also is the subject of Section 3.10(a)(i) or (ii) above and (2) any Notice of Borrowing that requests an RFR Loan shall instead be deemed to be a Notice of Borrowing for a Base Rate Loan and (B) for Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, any Notice of Continuation/Conversion that requests a Term Benchmark Loan or an RFR Loan for the relevant rate above in an Alternative Currency, then such request shall be ineffective; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Type of Borrowing, then all other Types of Borrowings shall be permitted. Furthermore, if any Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan in any Agreed Currency is outstanding on the date of the Borrower’s receipt of the notice from the Administrative Agent referred to in this Section 3.10 with respect to a Relevant Rate applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan, then until (x) the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist with respect to the relevant Benchmark and (y) the Borrower delivers a new Notice of Continuation/Conversion in accordance with the terms of Section 2.4 or a new Notice of Borrowing in accordance with the terms of Section 2.1(b), (A) for Loans denominated in Dollars, (1) any Term Benchmark Loan shall on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, (x) an RFR Loan denominated in Dollars so long as the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is not also the subject of Section 3.10(a)(i) or (ii) above or (y) a Base Rate Loan if the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR also is the subject of Section 3.10(a)(i) or (ii) above, on such day, and (2) any RFR Loan shall on and from such day be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute a Base Rate Loan and (B) for Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, (1) any Term Benchmark Loan shall, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day) bear interest at the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Agreed Currency plus the Applicable Percentage; provided that, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Agreed Currency cannot be determined, any outstanding affected Term Benchmark Loans denominated in any Agreed Currency other than Dollars shall, at the Borrower’s election prior to such day: (A) be prepaid by the Borrower on such day or (B) solely for the purpose of calculating the interest rate applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan, such Term Benchmark Loan denominated in any Agreed Currency other than Dollars shall be deemed to be a Term Benchmark Loan denominated in Dollars and shall accrue interest at the same interest rate applicable to Term Benchmark Loans denominated in Dollars at such time and (2) any RFR Loan shall bear interest at the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Agreed Currency plus the Applicable Percentage; provided that, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Alternative Currency cannot be determined, any

outstanding affected RFR Loans denominated in any Alternative Currency, at the Borrower’s election, shall either (A) be converted into Base Rate Loans denominated in Dollars (in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such Alternative Currency) immediately or (B) be prepaid in full immediately.

(a)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Credit Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (1) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Credit Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” with respect to any Agreed Currency for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Credit Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders.

(b)In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Credit Document, the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower, will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Credit Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document (other than the Administrative Agent and the Borrower).

(c)The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to clause (f) below and (v) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any reasonable 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 3.10, 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 Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 3.10.

(d)To the extent administratively and operationally feasible, the Administrative Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower’s requests to ensure that any Benchmark Replacement and any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes meet the standards set forth in Treasury Regulation Section 1.1001-6 (or any successor or final version of such regulation or other official guidance issued by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service) so as not to be treated as a “modification” (and therefore an exchange) of this Credit Agreement for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1001-3, it being understood that for these

purposes, the substantially equivalent fair market value requirement of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1001-6(b)(2) shall be deemed satisfied, and it being further understood that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action under this provision that would cause it any commercially unreasonable burden, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent.

(e)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Credit Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including the Term SOFR or EURIBO Rate) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Xxxxxxxxx has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

(f)Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any request for a Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan or any request for the conversion to or continuation of Term Benchmark Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, either (x) the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any request for (1) a Term Benchmark Borrowing denominated in Dollars into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to (A) an RFR Loan denominated in Dollars so long as the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is not the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event or (B) a Base Rate Loan if the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event or (y) any Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan denominated in an Alternative Currency shall be ineffective. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of the Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of the Base Rate. Furthermore, if any Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan in any Agreed Currency is outstanding on the date of the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period with respect to a Relevant Rate applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan, then until such time as a Benchmark Replacement for such Agreed Currency is implemented pursuant to this Section 3.10, (A) if such Term Benchmark Loan is denominated in Dollars, (1) any Term Benchmark Loan shall on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, (x) an RFR Loan denominated in Dollars so long as the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is not the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event or (y) a Base Rate Loan if the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event, on such day and (2) any RFR Loan shall on and from such day be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute a Base Rate Loan, and (B) for Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency (1) any Term Benchmark Loan shall, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day) bear interest at the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Alternative Currency plus the Applicable Percentage; provided that, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Alternative Currency cannot be determined, any outstanding affected Term Benchmark Loans denominated in any Alternative Currency shall, at

the Borrower’s election prior to such day: (A) be prepaid by the Borrower on such day or (B) solely for the purpose of calculating the interest rate applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan, such Term Benchmark Loan denominated in any Agreed Currency other than Dollars shall be deemed to be a Term Benchmark Loan denominated in Dollars and shall accrue interest at the same interest rate applicable to Term Benchmark Loans denominated in Dollars at such time and (2) any RFR Loan shall bear interest at the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Alternative Currency plus the Applicable Percentage; provided that, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Alternative Currency cannot be determined, any outstanding affected RFR Loans denominated in any Alternative Currency, at the Borrower’s election, shall either (A) be converted into Base Rate Loans denominated in Dollars (in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such Alternative Currency) immediately or (B) be prepaid in full immediately.

1.11Illegality.

If any Lender determines that any Requirement of Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Term SOFR Loans or EURIBOR Loans, or materially restricts the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, the applicable currency in the applicable offshore market for such currency, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Term SOFR Rate or EURIBO Rate, as applicable, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Term SOFR Loans or EURIBOR Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to Term SOFR Loans, as applicable, shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all Term Benchmark Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans in the Dollar Equivalent of such Term Benchmark Loans, either on the last day of the Interest Period thereof, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Term Benchmark Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Term Benchmark Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay interest on the amount so prepaid or converted, together with any amounts due with respect thereto pursuant to Section 3.14. Each Lender agrees to designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender.

1.12Requirements of Law.

If any Lender determines that as a result of any Change in Law, or such Lender’s compliance therewith, there shall be any increase in the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining Loans or (as the case may be) issuing, participating in or maintaining any Letters of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or a reduction in the amount received or receivable by such Lender in connection with any of the foregoing (excluding for purposes of this Section 3.12 any such increased costs or reduction in amount resulting from (i) taxes other than capital taxes imposed on such Lender’s loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto and (ii) reserve requirements utilized in the determination of the Term SOFR Rate or EURIBO Rate, as applicable), then from time to time, within 10 days of demand of such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction in yield.

1.13Taxes.

(a)Any and all payments by or on behalf of the Borrower to or for the account of the Administrative Agent or any Lender under any Credit Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future income, stamp or other taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees or other charges imposed by any Governmental Authority, withholdings or similar charges, and all liabilities with respect thereto, but excluding, in the case of the Administrative Agent and each Lender, (x) any branch profit taxes or taxes imposed on or measured by its net income, (y) franchise taxes imposed on it (in lieu of net income taxes), in each case by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) under the laws of which the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, is organized or maintains its Lending Office, and (z) any taxes imposed by FATCA (all such non-excluded present or future income, stamp or other taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees or other charges imposed by any Governmental Authority, withholdings or similar charges, and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If the Borrower shall be required by any Requirement of Law to deduct any Taxes or Other Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under any Credit Document to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.13(a)), the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions, (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law and (iv) within 30 days after the date of such payment, the Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent (which shall forward the same to such Lender) the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof, to the extent such receipt is issued therefor, or other written proof of payment thereof that is reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(b)In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay any and all present or future stamp, court or documentary taxes and any other excise or property taxes or charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made under any Credit Document or from the execution, delivery, performance, enforcement or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, any Credit Document (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

(c)[Reserved].

(d)The Borrower agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender for (i) the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 3.13(d)) paid by the Administrative Agent and such Lender and (ii) any liability (including penalties, interest and reasonable expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto.

(e)In the case of any payment hereunder or under any other Credit Document by or on behalf of the Borrower through an account or branch outside the United States, or on behalf of the Borrower by a payor that is not a United States person, if the Borrower determines that no taxes are payable in respect thereof, the Borrower shall furnish, or shall cause such payor to furnish, to the Administrative Agent, an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent stating that such payment is exempt from Taxes. For purposes of this subsection (e), the terms “United States” and “United States person” shall have the meanings specified in Section 7701 of the Code.

(f)Each Lender that is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Credit Agreement, (i) two

duly signed completed copies of either IRS Form W-8BEN or any successor thereto, including IRS Form W-8BEN-E (relating to such Lender and entitling it to an exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax on all payments to be made to such Lender by the Borrower pursuant to this Credit Agreement), IRS Form W-8ECI or any successor thereto (relating to all payments to be made to such Lender by the Borrower pursuant to this Credit Agreement), or IRS Form W-8IMY or any successor thereto (relating to all payments to be made to such Lender by the Borrower pursuant to this Credit Agreement) as appropriate, or such other evidence satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that such Lender is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of, United States withholding tax and (ii) in the case of a foreign Lender claiming exemption from United States withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest”, a “Certificate of Non-Bank Status for Foreign Entities” substantially in the form of Exhibit 3.13(f) together with the applicable IRS Form W-8, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, properly completed and duly executed by such foreign Lender claiming complete exemption from, or a reduced rate of, United States withholding tax on payments under this Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents. Each Lender that is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Credit Agreement two duly signed completed copies of IRS Form W-9 or any successor thereto or such other evidence satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that such Lender is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of, United States withholding tax. If a payment made to a Lender under any Credit Document would be subject to United States withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine whether such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA and, as necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 3.13(f), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the Restatement Effective Date. Thereafter and from time to time, each such Lender shall (i) promptly submit to the Administrative Agent such additional duly completed and signed copies of one of such forms (or such successor forms as shall be adopted from time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities), as appropriate, as may reasonably be requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent and then be available under then current United States laws and regulations to avoid, or such evidence as is satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of any available exemption from or reduction of, United States withholding taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Lender by the Borrower pursuant to this Credit Agreement, (ii) promptly notify the Administrative Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction (or it is determined the earlier claimed exemption was incorrectly claimed for any reason), (iii) promptly update any previously delivered form or certification that has expired or become obsolete or inaccurate in any respect (or promptly notify the Borrower and Administrative Agent of its legal inability to do so) and (iv) take such steps as shall not be materially disadvantageous to it, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, and as may be reasonably necessary (including the re-designation of its Lending Office) to avoid any Requirement of Law that the Borrower make any deduction or withholding for taxes from amounts payable to such Lender. If payments to any Lender, at the time such Lender (i) acquires the applicable interest in a Loan or Commitment (other than pursuant to an assignment request by the Borrower under Section 3.17) or (ii) changes its Lending Office, are subject to United States withholding tax at a rate in excess of zero pursuant to a law in effect at that time, withholding tax at such rate shall be considered

excluded from Taxes for purposes of any indemnity or gross up unless and until a lesser rate applies, whereupon withholding tax at such rate only shall be considered excluded from Taxes for periods thereafter; provided, however, that, if at the date (i) of any assignment pursuant to which such Lender becomes a party to this Credit Agreement or (ii) such Lender changes its Lending Office, such Lender’s assignor (or such Lender immediately before it changed its Lending Office) was entitled to payments under subsection (a) of this Section 3.13 in respect of United States withholding tax at such date, then, to such extent, the term Taxes shall include (in addition to withholding taxes that may be imposed in the future or other amounts otherwise includable in Taxes) United States withholding tax, if any, applicable with respect to such Lender on such date. If such Lender fails to deliver the above forms or other evidence, then the Borrower or the Administrative Agent may withhold from any interest payment to such Lender an amount equal to the applicable withholding tax imposed by the Code, without reduction. If any Governmental Authority asserts that the Borrower or the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold any tax or other amount from payments made in respect of such Lender, such Lender shall indemnify the Borrower or the Administrative Agent therefor, including all penalties and interest, any taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on the amounts payable to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent under this Section 3.13(f), and costs and expenses (including Attorney Costs) of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent. For any period with respect to which a Lender has failed to provide the Administrative Agent with the above forms or other evidence (other than if such failure is due to a change in the applicable law, or in the interpretation or application thereof, occurring after the date on which such form or other evidence originally was required to be provided or if such form or other evidence otherwise is not required), such Lender shall not be entitled to indemnification under subsection (d) of this Section 3.13 nor shall the Borrower be required to make additional payments under subsection (a) of this Section 3.13 with respect to Taxes imposed by the United States by reason of such failure; provided, however, that should a Lender become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver such form or other evidence required hereunder, the Borrower shall take such steps as such Lender shall reasonably request to assist such Lender in recovering such Taxes. The obligation of the Lenders under this Section 3.13(f) shall survive the payment of all Obligations and the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent.

(g)In the event that an additional payment is made under Section 3.13(a) for the account of any Lender and such Lender, in its reasonable judgment, determines that it has finally and irrevocably received or been granted a credit against or release or remission for, or repayment of, any tax paid or payable by it in respect of or calculated with reference to the deduction or withholding giving rise to such payment, such Lender shall, to the extent that it determines that it can do so without prejudice to the retention of the amount of such credit, relief, remission or repayment, pay to the Borrower such amount as such Lender shall, in its reasonable judgment, have determined to be attributable to such deduction or withholding and which will leave such Lender (after such payment) in no worse position than it would have been in if the Borrower had not been required to make such deduction or withholding. Nothing herein contained shall interfere with the right of a Lender to arrange its tax affairs in whatever manner it thinks fit nor oblige any Lender to claim any tax credit or to disclose any information relating to its tax affairs or any computations in respect thereof or require any Lender to do anything that would prejudice its ability to benefit from any other credits, reliefs, remissions or repayments to which it may be entitled.

(h)For purposes of determining withholding tax imposed under FATCA, from and after the Restatement Effective Date, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall treat (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to treat) this Credit Agreement as not qualifying as a “grandfathered obligation” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i).

(i)Solely for purposes of this Section 3.13, the term “Credit Document” includes the Fee Letters.

1.14Compensation.

Upon the written demand of any Lender, the Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of:

(a)any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan, on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Term Benchmark Loan or on the Interest Payment Date of such RFR Loan, as applicable (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise);

(b)any failure by the Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan on the date or in the amount previously requested by the Borrower; or

(c)any assignment required pursuant to Section 2.7(e), Section 3.17 or Section 11.6.

The amount each such Lender shall be compensated pursuant to this Section 3.14 shall include, without limitation, (i) any loss incurred by such Lender in connection with the re-employment of funds paid, prepaid or repaid, or not borrowed or paid, as the case may be, and (ii) any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including Attorney Costs) incurred and reasonably attributable thereto.

With respect to Term Benchmark Loans, for purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to the Lenders under this Section 3.14, each Lender may deem itself to have funded each Term Benchmark Loan made by it at the Term SOFR Rate or EURIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Term Benchmark Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the applicable offshore interbank markets for such currency for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Term Benchmark Loan was in fact so funded.

1.15Determination and Survival of Provisions.

All determinations by the Administrative Agent or a Lender of amounts owing under Sections 3.9 through 3.14, inclusive, shall, absent manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the parties hereto. In determining such amount, the Administrative Agent or such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

shall be increased to 4.50 to 1.00 at the end of and for the fiscal quarter during which such Material Acquisition shall have been consummated and at the end of and for each of the following three consecutive fiscal quarters, it being understood and agreed that the Borrower shall have the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to decide (by written notice to the Administrative Agent) that such increased Leverage Ratio shall be in effect for a shorter period of time (the period during which any such increase in the Leverage Ratio shall actually be in effect (taking into account such Xxxxxxxx’s election to shorten the period during which the increased Leverage Ratio shall be in effect) being called a “Leverage Increase Period”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, after the Borrower elects to make a Leverage Increase Election the Borrower may not make a subsequent Leverage Increase Election until two fiscal quarters have elapsed since the end of the prior Leverage Increase Period. The Borrower may terminate any Leverage Increase Period by a notice delivered to the Administrative Agent whereupon, on the last day of the fiscal quarter during which such notice was given and on the last day of each fiscal quarter thereafter until another Leverage Increase Period has commenced as provided in this Section, the maximum Leverage Ratio shall be 4.00 to 1.00.

1.6Insurance.

The Borrower will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, at all times maintain in full force and effect insurance (including worker’s compensation, liability, casualty and business interruption insurance) with reputable national companies that are not Affiliates of the Borrower (except to the extent that self-insurance is maintained in reasonable amounts), in such amounts, covering such risks and liabilities as is reasonable and prudent.

Declare the unpaid principal of and any accrued interest in respect of all Loans, any reimbursement obligations arising from drawings under Letters of Credit and any and all other Indebtedness or obligations of any and every kind owing by the Borrower to any of the Lenders under the Credit Documents to be due whereupon the same shall be immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower.

No Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lender or participant to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Borrower or any of its Affiliates.

1.4Reliance on Communications.

(a)The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, communication, signature, resolution, representation, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, statement or other document 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 counsel to the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat each Lender as the owner of its interests hereunder for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been delivered to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 11.3(b). The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under any Credit Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, 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 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 Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders or all the Lenders, if required hereunder, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and participants, and their respective successors and assigns. Where this Credit Agreement expressly permits or prohibits an action unless the Required Lenders otherwise determine, the Administrative Agent shall, and in all other instances, the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, initiate any solicitation for the consent or a vote of the Lenders.

(b)For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Section 5.1, each Lender that has signed this Credit Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter either sent by the

Administrative Agent to such Lender for consent, approval, acceptance or satisfaction, or required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender.

1.5Notice of Default.

The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Credit Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” The Administrative Agent will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders in accordance with Section 9.2; provided, however, that unless and until the Administrative Agent has received any such direction, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Lenders.

1.6Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders.

Each Lender and Issuing Lender acknowledges that no Agent-Related Person has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereinafter taken, including any consent to and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of the Borrower or any of its Affiliates, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related Person to any Lender as to any matter, including whether Agent-Related Persons have disclosed material information in their possession. Each Lender and Issuing Lender represents to the Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person, any Issuing Lender 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, prospects, operations, Property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and its Affiliates, and all applicable bank or other regulatory laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Credit Agreement and to extend credit to the Borrower hereunder. Each Lender and Issuing Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person, any Issuing Lender 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 Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, Property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent herein, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender or Issuing Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, Property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Borrower or any of its Affiliates which may come into the possession of any Agent-Related Person.

1.7Indemnification.

(a)To the extent that the Borrower for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under Section 11.5 to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the relevant Issuing Lender or any Agent-Related Person of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally, not jointly, agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), each relevant Issuing Lender or such Agent-Related Person, as the case may be, such Xxxxxx’s Revolving Loan Commitment Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable

unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or such Issuing Lender in its capacity as such, or against any Agent-Related Person of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or such Issuing Lender in connection with such capacity.

(b)Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent for (i) any Taxes attributable to such Lender and paid by the Administrative Agent (but only to the extent the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any taxes attributable to such Lender that are excluded from the definition of Taxes in Section 3.13(a) or 3.13(f) and that are paid by the Administrative Agent, (iii) any taxes attributable to such Xxxxxx’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 11.3(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iv) any liability arising from or with respect to any taxes described in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above (including any taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 10.7(b), penalties, interest and reasonable expenses).

1.8Administrative Agent in Its Individual Capacity.

JPMorgan and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire Capital Stock of and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with the Borrower and its Affiliates as though JPMorgan were not the Administrative Agent or an Issuing Lender hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Lenders. The Lenders and Issuing Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, JPMorgan or its Affiliates may receive information regarding the Borrower or its Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of the Borrower or such Affiliate) and that the Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to its Loans, JPMorgan shall have the same rights and powers under this Credit Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise such rights and powers as though it were not the Administrative Agent or an Issuing Lender, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” include JPMorgan in its individual capacity.

1.9Successor Agent.

The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon 30 days’ notice to the Lenders. If the Administrative Agent resigns under this Credit Agreement, the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor administrative agent for the Lenders (such appointment, absent the existence of an Event of Default, to be subject to the consent of the Borrower, which consent of the Borrower shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no successor administrative agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and the Borrower, a successor administrative agent from among the Lenders. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor administrative agent hereunder, such successor administrative agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor administrative agent and the retiring Administrative Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 10 and Sections 11.5 and 11.9 shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Credit Agreement. If no successor administrative agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date which is 30 days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lenders shall perform all of the duties of

the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Xxxxxxx appoint a successor agent as provided for above.

1.10Agent May File Proofs of Claim.

In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a)to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

(b)to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under the Credit Documents.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

100

located) to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against obligations and liabilities of the Borrower to the Lenders hereunder, under the Notes, the other Credit Documents or otherwise, irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent or the Lenders shall have made any demand hereunder and although such obligations, liabilities or claims, or any of them, may be contingent or unmatured, and any such set-off shall be deemed to have been made immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default even though such charge is made or entered on the books of such Lender subsequent thereto.

Assignee Group) will be treated as a single assignment for purposes of determining whether such minimum amount has been met.

(ii)Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Xxxxxx’s rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Commitment assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not apply to the Swing Line Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of Swing Line Loans;

(iii)Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by subsection (b)(i)(B) of this Section and as set forth below:

(A)the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (1) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (2) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, and such consent shall be deemed given if no objection is received by the assigning Lender and the Administrative Agent from the Borrower within five Business Days after notice of such proposed assignment has been delivered to the Borrower;

(B)the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility unless such assignment is to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender;

(C)the consent of each Issuing Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment that increases the obligation of the assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit (whether or not then outstanding); and

(D)the consent of the Swing Line Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility.

(iv)Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

(v)No Assignment to Borrower. No such assignment shall be made to the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries.

(vi)No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be made to a natural person.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Credit Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Credit Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of

102

the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Credit Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.9, 3.12, 3.13, 3.14 and 11.5 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment). Upon request, the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Credit Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Credit Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (d) of this Section.

(c)Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at the Agency Service Address a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive (absent manifest error), and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Credit Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. In addition, the Register shall be available for inspection by any Lender as to entries pertaining to it at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d)Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower, any Issuing Lender, the Swing Line Lender or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries or any competitor of the Borrower identified in a letter dated the Restatement Effective Date of the Borrower to the Administrative Agent (as such letter may be amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified by the Borrower from time to time to identify additional Persons engaged in the business in which the Borrower is engaged), which letter shall be made available to the Lenders) (each, a “Loan Participant”), in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Credit Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans; provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Credit Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Xxxxxx’s rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement. Each Lender that sells a participation pursuant to this Section 11.3(d) shall, acting as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower solely for the purpose of maintaining a register in order to satisfy the requirements of Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations, maintain a register on which it records the name and address of each Loan Participant to which it has sold a participation and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each such Loan Participant’s interest in the Loans or other rights and obligations of such Lender under this Credit Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Loan Participant or any information relating to a Loan Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any this Credit Agreement) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Credit Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this

103

Credit Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Loan Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification that would change the amount, interest rate or maturity of the Loans or any other matter that requires unanimous consent of all of the Lenders. Subject to subsection (e) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Loan Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.9, 3.12, 3.13 and 3.14 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Loan Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 11.2 as though it were a Lender, provided such Loan Participant agrees to be subject to Section 3.8 as though it were a Lender.

(e)Loan Participant’s Rights. A Loan Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.9, 3.12 or 3.14 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Loan Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Loan Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Loan Participant that would be a foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.13 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Loan Participant, the participating Lender provides the Borrower with an IRS Form W-8IMY and such Loan Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 3.13 as though it were a Lender.

(f)Unrestricted Assignments. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Credit Agreement (including under its Note(s), if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; 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.

(g)Special Purpose Entities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, so long as any action in accordance with this Section 11.3(g) does not cause increased costs or expenses for the Borrower, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”) the option to fund all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to fund pursuant to this Credit Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to fund any Loan, (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to fund all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to fund such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof, (iii) no SPC shall have any voting rights pursuant to Section 11.6 and (iv) with respect to notices, payments and other matters hereunder, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall not be obligated to deal with an SPC, but may limit their communications and other dealings relevant to such SPC to the applicable Granting Lender. The funding of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent that, and as if, such Loan were funded by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or payment under this Credit Agreement for which a Lender would otherwise be liable for so long as, and to the extent, the Granting Lender provides such indemnity or makes such payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Credit Agreement, any SPC may disclose any non-public information relating to its funding of Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety or guarantee to such SPC so long as such disclosure is clearly designated as being made on a confidential basis. This Section 11.3(g) may not be amended without the prior written consent of each Granting Lender, all or any part of whose Loan is being funded by an SPC at the time of such amendment.

(h)Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to

104

include Electronic Signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

1.4No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative.

No failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document and no course of dealing between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. The rights and remedies provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which the Administrative Agent or any Lender would otherwise have. No notice to or demand on the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

1.5Payment of Expenses; Indemnification.

(a)The Borrower shall pay on demand:

(i)any and all Attorney Costs and reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers and their respective Affiliates in connection with the drafting, negotiation and administration of the Credit Documents and any amendments thereto and the closing of the transactions contemplated thereby; and

(ii)all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including fees and disbursements of in-house and other attorneys, appraisers and consultants) incurred by the Agents or the Lenders in any workout, restructuring or similar arrangements or, after an Event of Default, in connection with the protection, preservation, exercise or enforcement of any of the terms of the Credit Documents or in connection with any foreclosure, collection or bankruptcy proceedings;

provided, however, that Attorney Costs shall in each case be limited to the Attorney Costs of one counsel, but excluding the allocated cost of internal counsel and, if necessary, of a single local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction (which may include a single special counsel acting in multiple jurisdictions).

The foregoing costs and expenses shall include all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket cost of independent public accountants and other outside experts retained by the Administrative Agent or any Lender. If requested by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or a Lender, as applicable, will furnish to the Borrower, within 10 Business Days of such request, a certificate setting forth the basis in reasonable detail with respect to any amounts requested under this Section 11.5(a). All amounts due under this Section 11.5(a) shall be payable within 20 Business Days after demand therefor. The agreements in this Section shall survive the termination of the Commitments and repayment of all Obligations.

105

(b)Limitation of Liability. To the extent permitted by applicable law, (i) the Borrower shall not assert, and the Borrower hereby waives, any claim against the Administrative Agent, any Lead Arranger, any Syndication Agent, any Documentation Agent, any Issuing Lender and any Lender, and any Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called a “Lender-Related Person”) for any Liabilities (as defined below) arising from the use by others of any information or other materials obtained through IntraLinks or other similar information transmission systems in connection with the Credit Agreement (except to the extent they are found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to arise from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Lender-Related Person or its Related Parties), and (ii) no party hereto shall assert, and each such party hereby waives, any Liabilities against (x) any Lender-Related Person or (y) the Borrower and any Related Party of the Borrower (each such Person being called a “Company-Related Person”), on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Credit Agreement, any other Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, any transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided that, nothing in this Section 11.5(b) shall relieve the Borrower of any obligation it may have to indemnify an Indemnitee, as provided in Section 11.5(c), against any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages asserted against such Indemnitee by a third party. As used in this Section 11.5(b), “Liabilities” means any losses, claims (including intraparty claims), demands, damages or liabilities of any kind.

(c)Indemnification.

(i)The Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless each Agent, each Lead Arranger, each Lender and their respective Related Parties of the foregoing (collectively the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims (including intraparty claims), demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses and disbursements (including Attorney Costs, limited to the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses of one counsel representing all Indemnitees, taken as a whole, but excluding the allocated cost of internal counsel, and, if necessary, of a single local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction (which may include a single special counsel acting in multiple jurisdictions) for all such Indemnitees, taken as whole (and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest where any Indemnitee affected by such conflict notifies the Borrower of the existence of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel, those of another firm of counsel for each such affected Indemnitee and all other Indemnitees similarly situated))) of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out of or in connection with (A) the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance or administration of any Credit Document or any other agreement, letter or instrument delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, (B) any Commitment or Loan or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom, (C) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property currently or formerly owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or (D) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory (including any investigation of, preparation for, or defense of any pending or threatened claim, investigation, litigation or proceeding) and regardless of whether commenced by the Borrower, any Indemnitee or any third party and whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto (all the foregoing, collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available (x) to the extent that such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties,

106

claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements are determined by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or its Related Parties, (y) to any claim brought by the Borrower against any Indemnitee for a material breach of such Indemnitee’s (or its Related Parties’) obligations under this Credit Agreement or the other Credit Documents (to the extent such material breach is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment) or (z) to any liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements arising from actions, suits or proceedings (including any investigations or inquiries) by any Indemnitee against another Indemnitee (other than actions, suits, proceedings (including any investigations or inquiries) involving (a) alleged conduct or omission by the Borrower or its Affiliates or (b) against the Administrative Agent, any other Agent or any other arranger or bookrunner in its capacity as such). All amounts due under this Section 11.5(c) shall be payable within 10 Business Days after demand therefor. The agreements in this Section shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the Obligations.

(ii)To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify set forth in Section 11.5(c)(i) may be unenforceable as violative of any applicable law or public policy, the Borrower shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities that is permissible under applicable law.

1.6Amendments, Waivers and Consents.

Subject to Section 3.10, neither this Credit Agreement nor any other Credit Document nor any of the terms hereof or thereof may be amended, changed, waived, discharged or terminated unless such amendment, change, waiver, discharge or termination is in writing and signed by the Required Lenders and the Borrower; provided that no such amendment, change, waiver, discharge or termination shall without the consent of each Lender affected thereby:

(a)extend the Maturity Date of any Loan (except as permitted under Section 2.8) or extend or postpone the time for any payment or prepayment of principal of any Loan or unreimbursed drawing of any Letter of Credit;

(b)reduce the rate or amount or extend the time of payment of interest (other than as a result of waiving the applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates) thereon or fees hereunder;

(c)reduce or waive the principal amount of any Loan or unreimbursed drawing of any Letter of Credit;

(d)increase or extend the Commitment of a Lender (it being understood and agreed that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or a waiver of any mandatory reduction in the Commitments shall not constitute a change in the terms of any Commitment of any Lender);

(e)release the Borrower from its obligations or consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under (or in respect of) the Credit Documents, or release any Domestic Subsidiary from its obligations under any guarantee agreement delivered pursuant to Section 7.10;

107

(f)amend, modify or waive any provision of this Section 11.6 or Section 3.7 (or any other provision providing for the pro rata nature of payments or disbursements to Lenders), 3.8 or 9.1(a);

(g)reduce any percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders; or

(h)amend or otherwise modify the definition of Alternative Currency.

Notwithstanding the above, (i) no provisions of Section 10 may be amended or modified without the consent of the Administrative Agent, (ii) no provisions of Section 2.2 may be amended or modified without the consent of any Issuing Lender and (iii) no provisions of Section 2.3 may be amended or modified without the consent of the Swing Line Lender.

Notwithstanding the fact that the consent of all the Lenders is required in certain circumstances as set forth above, (x) each Lender is entitled to vote as such Xxxxxx sees fit on any reorganization plan that affects the Loans or the Letters of Credit, and each Lender acknowledges that the provisions of Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code supersede the unanimous consent provisions set forth herein and (y) the Required Lenders may consent to allow the Borrower to use cash collateral in the context of a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding.

If, in connection with any proposed amendment, waiver or consent requiring the consent of a greater percentage of the Lenders than the Required Lenders and the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained, but the consent of one or more other Lenders is not obtained (any such Lender which declares in writing that it will not provide such consent or whose consent is not obtained within the applicable period prescribed for such amendment, waiver or consent being referred to herein as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then, so long as the Administrative Agent is not a Non-Consenting Lender, the Borrower may, within 45 days of such Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, give notice in writing to the Administrative Agent and such Non-Consenting Lender of the Borrower’s intention to cause such Non-Consenting Lender to sell all of such Non-Consenting Lenders’ interests in its Commitments for an amount equal to the principal balances thereof and all accrued interest and fees with respect thereto through the date of sale pursuant to one or more Assignment and Assumptions, such sale being without premium or discount. In the event of any such notice, such Non-Consenting Lender shall be required to sell and assign such interests (including all of its related rights and obligations) as provided in this Section. Any such sale of a Non-Consenting Xxxxxx’s Commitments must be to an Eligible Assignee and, unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall be solely responsible for sourcing such Eligible Assignee, at no cost or expense to the Administrative Agent or any Lender. Any such assignment to an Eligible Assignee pursuant to this Section shall be in accordance with clause (b)(iv) of Section 11.3. At any time during or after the period during which a proposed amendment, waiver or consent was pending, upon the request of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall promptly provide (but in any event within one Business Day) the Borrower with the names, contact information, Commitment percentages, principal balances and any other information reasonably requested for each Lender that, at the time of such request, was either a Non-Consenting Lender or had not yet decided whether or not to approve or consent to such amendment, waiver or consent.

1.7Counterparts.

This Credit Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument.

108

1.8Headings.

The headings of the sections and subsections hereof are provided for convenience only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Credit Agreement.

1.9Survival of Indemnification.

All indemnities set forth herein (including those set forth in Sections 3.9, 3.12, 3.13, 3.14 and 11.5), shall survive the execution and delivery of this Credit Agreement, the making of the Loans, the issuance of the Letters of Credit and the repayment of the Loans, LOC Obligations and other obligations and the termination of the Commitments hereunder. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Credit Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof.

EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS CREDIT AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION. Each of the parties hereto agrees not to assert any claim against any other party hereto, any of its Affiliates, or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, attorneys or agents, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages arising out of or otherwise relating to any of the transactions contemplated herein; provided that nothing contained in this sentence shall limit the Borrower’s indemnity obligations under Section 11.5(c).

1.12Severability.

If any provision of any of the Credit Documents is determined to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be fully severable and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect and shall be construed without giving effect to the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions.

Each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and representatives, excluding equity security departments and their members (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Credit Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to either (x) an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section or (y) the standard confidentiality undertaking on an IntraLinks or similar website, to (i) any assignee of or Loan Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Loan Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Credit Agreement,

110

(ii) to any insurance broker or provider of credit insurance or (iii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations, (g) with the prior written consent of the Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Borrower, which source is not known by the applicable Agent, Issuing Lender or Lender to have breached any confidentiality obligation by its disclosure of the Information. In addition, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Credit Agreement and information about this Credit Agreement to market data collectors, credit ratings agencies, similar service providers to the lending industry and service providers to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with the administration and management of this Credit Agreement, the other Credit Documents and the Loans.

Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

1.15Non-Public Information.

Each Lender acknowledges that all information, including requests for waivers and amendments, furnished by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent pursuant to or in connection with, or in the course of administering, this Credit Agreement will be syndicate-level information, which may contain MNPI.

1.20Judgment Currency.

If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or any other Credit Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of the Borrower in respect of any such sum due from it to any Agent or the Lenders hereunder or under the other Credit Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Credit Agreement (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Administrative Agent may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent from the Borrower in the Agreement Currency, the Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent or the Person to whom such obligation was owing against such loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent in such currency, the Administrative Agent agrees to promptly return the amount of any excess to such Borrower (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable law).

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

(b)the effects of any Bail-in Action on any such liability, including, if applicable, (i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability, (ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document or (iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.
