CREDIT AGREEMENT

CREDIT AGREEMENT dated as of April 29, 2022, among UTSI FINANCE, INC., a Michigan corporation (“UTSI”) and UTS REALTY, LLC, a Michigan limited liability company (“UTSR”) (UTSI and UTSR are jointly and severally referred to as “Borrower”), the other Loan Parties signatory hereto, as Loan Parties, the financial institutions or other entities from time to time parties hereto, each as a Lender, and FIFTH THIRD BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as Agent.

RECITALS

WHEREAS, Borrower desires that Lenders extend certain term loan credit facilities to Borrower to provide funds necessary for the purpose of refinancing certain indebtedness of Borrower; and

WHEREAS, Xxxxxxxx and each Loan Party desires to secure all of the Obligations by granting to Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a first-priority perfected Lien upon the Mortgaged Properties (as defined below), pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants hereinafter contained, and for other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.	DEFINITIONS

1.1.Certain Defined Terms. For purposes of the Loan Documents, capitalized terms shall have the meanings as defined in this Agreement (including, as applicable, each Annex to this Agreement and Appendix A to this Agreement).

1.2.Accounting Terms and Determinations. Unless otherwise specified herein, all accounting terms used herein shall be interpreted, all accounting determinations hereunder (including determinations made pursuant to the exhibits hereto) shall be made, and all Financial Statements required to be delivered hereunder shall be prepared on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP applied on a basis consistent with the most recent audited consolidated Financial Statements of Parent and its Subsidiaries delivered to Agent on or prior to the Closing Date. If at any time any change in GAAP would, in either case, affect the computation of any financial ratio or financial requirement set forth in any Loan Document, and any of Agent, Borrower or Required Lenders shall so request, Agent, Lenders and Borrower shall negotiate in good faith to amend such ratio or requirement to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change in GAAP (subject to the final approval of Agent and Required Lenders). Until so amended, such ratio or requirement shall continue to be computed in accordance with GAAP prior to such change therein. The effect of any changes to GAAP that would require leases which are, or would have been, classified as operating leases under GAAP as it exists on the Closing Date to be classified and accounted for as capital leases under the revised GAAP (including by reason of adoption of FASB Accounting Standards Update 2016-02) shall be disregarded for the purposes of computing any financial ratios and requirements herein.

1.3.Other Definitional Provisions and References. References in this Agreement to “Sections”, “Annexes”, “Appendices” or “Schedules” shall be to Sections, Annexes, Appendices or Schedules of or to this Agreement unless otherwise specifically provided. Any term defined herein may be used in the singular or plural. “Include”, “includes” and “including” shall be

deemed to be followed by “without limitation.” Except as otherwise specified or limited herein, references to any Person include the successors and assigns of such Person. The references “from” or “through” any date mean, unless otherwise specified, “from and including” or “through and including,” respectively. References in any Loan Document to the knowledge (or an analogous phrase) of any Loan Party are intended to signify that an officer of such Loan Party has actual knowledge or awareness of a particular fact or circumstance or that such officer of such Loan Party, if such Person had exercised reasonable diligence, would have known or been aware of such fact or circumstance. Unless otherwise specified herein, the settlement of all payments and fundings hereunder between or among parties hereto shall be made in lawful money of the United States and in immediately available funds. Time is of the essence in Xxxxxxxx’s and each other Loan Party’s performance under this Agreement and all other Loan Documents. All amounts used for purposes of financial calculations required to be made herein shall be without duplication. Except as otherwise specified or limited herein, references to any statute or act shall include all related regulations, rules and orders and all amendments and supplements and any successor or replacement statutes, acts and regulations. References to any statute or act, without additional reference, shall be deemed to refer to federal statutes and acts of the United States. References to any agreement, instrument or document (including the Loan Documents and any Organizational Document) shall include all schedules, exhibits, annexes, appendices and other attachments thereto and shall be construed as referring to such agreement, instrument or document as from time to time amended, amended and restated, modified, extended, restated, replaced or supplemented (subject to any restrictions on such amendments, amendments and restatements, modifications, extensions, restatements, replacements and supplements set forth herein or in any other Loan Document).

TERM LOAN

2.1.Term Loan. Subject to the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, on the Closing Date, each Term Loan Lender, severally and not jointly, agrees to make a term loan to Borrower in the amounts for each Lender set forth on Annex B and in an aggregate principal amount equal to $165,350,000 (the “Term Loan”); provided that, after giving effect to the making of such Term Loan, the portion of the Term Loan advanced by any Term Loan Lender shall not exceed the Term Loan Commitment of such Term Loan Lender. No part of the Term Loan made to Borrower may, on the repayment or prepayment thereof, be redrawn or reborrowed. The Term Loan shall be set forth as in Annex B. For purposes of clarification, on the Closing Date, the Term Loan shall consist exclusively of Tranche Rate Loans.

2.2.Prepayments.

(a)Mandatory Prepayments.

(i)Subject to Section 2.2(d), within 2 Business Days after receipt by any Loan Party or Subsidiary of cash proceeds (including insurance proceeds and proceeds from casualty losses or condemnations) of any sale or disposition of, or any casualty or condemnation event with respect to the Mortgaged Property (other than a voluntary sale or disposition of Mortgaged Property that is subject to Section 2.2(a)(ii)), Borrower shall notify Agent of such Loan Party’s receipt of such cash proceeds and shall prepay the Advances in an amount equal to all such cash proceeds, net of (A) commissions and other reasonable and customary transaction costs, fees and expenses properly attributable to such transaction and payable by Borrower in connection therewith (in each case, paid to non-Affiliates), (B) transfer taxes, and (C) an appropriate reserve for income taxes in

accordance with GAAP in connection therewith (it being understood that to the extent any such reserve is reversed or abandoned, the amount so reversed or abandoned shall constitute cash proceeds payable pursuant to this Section). Any such prepayment shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.2(c); provided, that so long as (1) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom, (2) in the case of proceeds from casualty losses or condemnation, Borrower shall have given Agent prior written notice of Borrower’s intention to apply such monies to the cost of repair and restoration of the affected assets, and (3) such Loan Party completes such replacement or construction within 365 days in the case of any involuntary disposition resulting from a casualty loss or condemnation after the initial receipt of such monies, then the Loan Party whose assets were the subject of such disposition shall have the option to apply such proceeds from casualty losses or condemnation, to the cost of repair and restoration of the affected assets, unless and to the extent that such applicable period shall have expired without such replacement, purchase, or construction being made or completed, in which case, such net cash proceeds not so applied shall be paid to Agent and applied in accordance with Section 2.2(c).

(ii)Subject to Section 2.2(d), within 2 Business Days after receipt by any Loan Party or Subsidiary of cash proceeds of any sale or disposition of Mortgaged Property as permitted by Section 5.1, Borrower shall notify Agent of such Loan Party’s receipt of such cash proceeds and shall prepay the Advances in an amount equal to (x) all such cash proceeds, net of (A) commissions and other reasonable and customary transaction costs, fees and expenses properly attributable to such transaction and payable by Borrower in connection therewith, (B) transfer taxes, and (C) an appropriate reserve for income taxes in accordance with GAAP in connection therewith (it being understood that to the extent any such reserve is reversed or abandoned, the amount so reversed or abandoned shall constitute cash proceeds payable pursuant to this Section (as calculated, the “Mandatory Real Estate Sale Prepayment Amount”)); plus (y) a breakage fee payable to Agent (“Breakage Fee”) in an amount equal to the product of (1) the Mandatory Real Estate Sale Prepayment Amount, multiplied by (2) either (A) 0.75% if such sale occurs prior to the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date, or (B) 0.25% if such sale occurs after the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date. For purposes of clarification, upon timely payment of the Mandatory Real Estate Sale Prepayment Amount and the applicable Breakage Fee, Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any additional prepayment penalty in connection with such prepayment. Any such prepayment shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.2(c).

(iii)If any Loan Party incurs Indebtedness not permitted under the terms of this Agreement, no later than the Business Day following the date of receipt of the proceeds thereof, Borrower shall notify Agent of such Loan Party’s receipt of such proceeds and shall prepay the Advances in an amount equal to all such proceeds, net of reasonable costs paid in connection therewith. Any such prepayment shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.2(c).

(b)Application of Certain Mandatory Prepayments. So long as no Event of Default or Application Event has occurred and is continuing, any prepayments made by Borrower pursuant to Section 2.2(a) shall be applied to prepay the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan, to the remaining principal installments thereof in the inverse order of maturity (including the “bullet” payment at maturity with respect thereto). If any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, but an Application Event is not in existence, such amounts shall be applied as provided in Section 9.3(b). If an Application Event has occurred and is continuing, such amounts shall be applied as provided in Section 9.3(b). All prepayments made pursuant to Section 2.2(b) must be accompanied by payment of any funding breakage costs in accordance with Section 2.5(e).

(c)Application of Prepayments to Tranche Rate Loans. Any prepayment of a Tranche Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period therefor shall include interest on the principal

amount being repaid and shall be subject to Section 2.5(e). All prepayments of an Advance of Tranche Rate Loans shall be applied first to that portion of such Advance comprised of Base Rate Loans and then to that portion of such Advance comprised of Tranche Rate Loans, in direct order of Interest Period maturities.

(d)No Implied Consent. Nothing in this Section 2.2 shall be construed to constitute Agent’s or any Lender’s consent to any transaction that is not expressly permitted by other provisions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or a waiver of any Event of Default arising therefrom.

2.3.Interest and Applicable Margins; Fees; Term Loan Principal Payments.

(a)Subject to Sections 2.3(c) and 2.3(d), each Advance shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the date when made at a rate per annum equal to the SOFR Rate or the Base Rate, as the case may be, plus the Applicable Margin. Daily Simple SOFR shall be reset each U.S. Government Securities Day by Agent, and Term SOFR shall be reset on the first day of each Interest Period. Each determination of an interest rate by Agent shall be conclusive and binding on Borrower and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. All computations of Fees and interest payable under this Agreement shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed. Interest and Fees shall accrue during each period during which interest or such Fees are computed from (and including) the first day thereof to the last day thereof.

(b)All as determined by Agent in accordance with the Loan Documents and Agent’s loan systems and procedures periodically in effect, interest shall be paid in arrears (i) on each Interest Payment Date and (ii) on the date of each payment or prepayment of Advances, Agent may estimate the amount of interest that Borrower will owe on Xxxxxxxx’s periodic statements and Agent may adjust the amount of interest owed on each subsequent statement provided to Borrower to reflect any differential between the estimated amount of interest shown on Xxxxxxxx’s preceding statement and the actual amount of interest determined to have been due by Agent on the preceding Interest Payment Date. Xxxxxxxx agrees to pay the amount shown due on the Interest Payment Date on each of Borrower’s periodic statements on each Interest Payment Date.

(c)At the election of Agent or the Required Lenders while any Event of Default exists (or automatically while any Event of Default under Section 9.1(a), 9.1(h) or 9.1(i) exists), interest (after as well as before entry of judgment thereon to the extent permitted by Law) on the Advances shall increase, from and after the date of occurrence of such Event of Default, to a rate per annum which is determined by adding 2.0% per annum to the Applicable Margin then in effect for such Advances (plus the applicable SOFR Rate or the Base Rate, as the case may be) (the “Default Rate”). All such interest shall be payable on demand of Agent or the Required Lenders.

(d)Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of Borrower hereunder shall be subject to the limitation that payments of interest shall not be required, for any period for which interest is computed hereunder, to the extent (but only to the extent) that contracting for or receiving such payment by the respective Lender would be contrary to the provisions of any Law applicable to such Lender limiting the highest rate of interest that may be lawfully contracted for, charged or received by such Lender, and in such event Borrower shall pay such Lender interest at the highest rate permitted by applicable Law (“Maximum Lawful Rate”) for such period; provided, that if at any time thereafter the rate of interest payable hereunder is less than the Maximum Lawful Rate, Borrower shall continue to pay interest hereunder at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest received by Agent, on behalf of Xxxxxxx, is equal to the total interest that would have been received had the interest payable hereunder been (but for the operation of this paragraph) the interest rate payable since the Closing Date as otherwise provided in this Agreement.

(e)Fees.

(i)Agent’s and Xxxxxx’s Fees. Xxxxxxxx agrees to pay to Agent, for its own account and for the account of the Lenders, as applicable, Fees payable in the amounts and at the times as set forth in the Fee Letter.

(ii)NSF Fees. In addition to, and without limiting, any other provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, Agent may impose a non-sufficient funds fee for any check that is presented for payment that is returned for any reason.

(f)Borrower hereby promises to pay to Agent, on each Principal Payment Date prior to noon New York, NY time until the Term Loan has been paid in full, the unpaid principal balance of the Term Loan in monthly installments equal to $1,377,916.67 plus interest at the Tranche Rate; provided that the first installment of principal of the Term Loan shall be prorated to the extent the first Principal Payment Date occurs within less than a month from the Closing Date; provided further that the last installment of principal and accrued interest of the Term Loan shall be due and payable on the Termination Date (if not earlier paid) and shall be in an amount sufficient to pay in full the entire unpaid principal amount of the Term Loan. Borrower may from time to time optionally prepay the principal balance of the Term Loan; provided that (i) Borrower shall provide at least one Business Day advance written notice by noon New York, NY time to Agent of such prepayment and (ii) each voluntary prepayment of the Term Loan shall be in a minimum principal amount of $500,000 and in integral multiples of $500,000 (or such lesser amount as may be agreed by Agent). Any voluntary prepayment of the Term Loan will be applied to the last to mature of the payments required under this Agreement.

(g)[Reserved]

2.4.[Reserved].

2.5.Tranche Rate Provisions.

(a)Tranche Rate Election. The Advances made hereunder on the Closing Date shall be Tranche Rate Loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the effectiveness and the date of any conversions of Tranche Rate Loans to Daily Simple SOFR Loans (or, if applicable, from Daily Simple SOFR Loans to Tranche Rate Loans) shall be determined by Agent, in each case consistent with the provisions of this Agreement.

(b)Temporary Replacement of the Tranche Rate and Tenor Replacement. In the event, prior to commencement of any Interest Period relating to a Tranche Rate Loan, Agent shall determine or be notified by Required Lenders that no Successor Rate has been determined in accordance with Section 2.5(c) and either: (i) the Tranche Rate is unavailable, unrepresentative, or unreliable, (ii) the Tranche Rate as determined by Agent will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Lenders of funding their Tranche Rate Loans for such Interest Period, or (iii) the making or funding of Tranche Rate Loans has become impracticable; then, in any such case, Agent shall promptly provide notice of such determination to Borrower and Lenders (which shall be conclusive and binding on all parties hereto absent manifest error), and (A) any request for a Tranche Rate Loan or for a conversion to or continuation of a Tranche Rate Loan shall be automatically withdrawn and shall be deemed a request for a Base Rate Loan, (B) each Tranche Rate Loan will automatically, on the last day of the then current Interest Period relating thereto, become a Base Rate Loan, and (C) the obligations of Lenders to make Tranche Rate Loans shall be suspended until Agent or Required Lenders determine that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, in which event Agent shall so notify Borrower and Lenders. If a Successor Rate has been determined in accordance with Section 2.5(c) and Agent determines, or Required Lenders provide notice, that any of the

circumstances described in clauses (i)-(iii) of this paragraph has occurred, then clauses (A)-(C) of this paragraph shall apply as if each reference to Tranche Rate therein were a reference to the Successor Rate.

At any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Successor Rate), the Agent may remove any tenor of a Tranche Rate that is unavailable, non-representative, or not in compliance with or aligned with the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) Principles for Financial Benchmarks, in the Agent’s sole discretion, for Tranche Rate settings; provided however that the Agent may reinstate such previously removed tenor for Tranche Rate settings, if the Agent determines in its sole discretion that such tenor has become available and representative again.

(c)Tranche Rate Replacement.

(i)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document (and any Rate Contract shall be deemed not to be a “Loan Document” for purposes of this Section 2.5(c)), but without limiting Section 2.5(b) above, if the Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding on all parties hereto absent manifest error) that any of the circumstances described in Section 2.5(b)(i)-(iii) has occurred and is unlikely to be temporary or the administrator of the Tranche Rate or a Governmental Authority having or purporting to have jurisdiction over the Agent or such administrator has made a public statement identifying a specific date (the “Scheduled Unavailability Date”) after which the Tranche Rate will no longer be representative or made available or used for determining the interest rate of loans or otherwise cease or will no longer be in compliance or aligned with the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) Principles for Benchmarks, and there is no successor administrator satisfactory to the Agent, then on a date and time determined by the Agent (the “Tranche Rate Replacement Date”), but no later than the Scheduled Unavailability Date, the Tranche Rate will be replaced hereunder and under any other Loan Document with Daily Simple SOFR.

(ii)If the Successor Rate is based on Daily Simple SOFR, interest shall be due and payable in arrears on the first Business Day of each month.

(iii)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if the Agent determines that Daily Simple SOFR is not available and administratively feasible prior to the Tranche Rate Replacement Date, or if any of the circumstances described in the initial paragraph of this Section 2.5(c) with regard to the Tranche Rate has occurred with respect to a Successor Rate then in effect, the Agent and Borrower may amend this Agreement solely for the purpose of replacing the Tranche Rate or any then current Successor Rate in accordance with this Section 2.5(c) with another alternative benchmark rate and a Spread Adjustment, giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar U.S. dollar denominated syndicated credit facilities and any recommendations of a relevant Governmental Authority, and which Spread Adjustment or method for calculating such Spread Adjustment shall be published on an information service as selected by the Agent from time to time in its reasonable discretion. Any such alternative benchmark rate and Spread Adjustment shall constitute a Successor Rate hereunder. Any such amendment shall become effective on the date set forth in a written notice provided by the Agent to the Borrower and Lenders (such date to be five or more Business Days after the date of such notice) unless the Required Lenders have provided written notice of their objection to such amendment on or before the fifth Business Day after the Agent provides such notice.

(iv)The Agent will promptly (in one or more notices) notify the Borrower and Lenders of the implementation of any Successor Rate. Any Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice; provided that to the extent such market practice is not administratively feasible for the Agent, such Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner as otherwise reasonably determined by the Agent.

(v)In connection with the implementation and administration of a Successor Rate (including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 2.5(c)(viii) below), the Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement; provided that the Agent shall provide notice of such Conforming Changes to the Borrower and Lenders reasonably promptly after such amendment becomes effective.

(vi)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if the Successor Rate would be less than the Floor, the Successor Rate will be deemed to be the Floor for the purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, provided that, at any time during which a Rate Contract with a Lender is then in effect with respect to all or a portion of the Obligations, the Floor shall be disregarded and no longer of any force and effect with respect to such portion of the Obligations subject to such Rate Contract. Further, if the interest rate to be replaced is rounded upwards to the next 1/8th of 1% under the terms of this Agreement or any Loan Document, the Successor Rate shall also be rounded up to the next 1/8th; provided further that this provision governing rounding shall not apply if the Borrower has a Rate Contract in effect with respect to all or part of an Advance.

(vii)The Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission, or any other matter related to the Tranche Rate or any Successor Rate, including the selection of such rate, any related Spread Adjustment, or any Conforming Changes, or whether the composition or characteristics of any Successor Rate and Spread Adjustment or Conforming Changes will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the initial Tranche Rate.

(viii)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if, after the Closing Date, the Borrower enters into a Rate Contract with respect to all or part of an Advance and the floating interest rate under the Rate Contract is Daily Simple SOFR, such portion of such Advance so subject (as required by Agent) shall, convert from a Tranche Rate Loan to a Daily Simple SOFR Loan, without consent of any other party hereto; provided further that, if subsequent thereto, the Agent and Borrower amend such Rate Contract to include, or terminate such Rate Contract and enter into a new Rate Contract with, a floating interest rate thereunder of Term SOFR, then the Agent and Borrower may further agree to replace Daily Simple SOFR hereunder with a Tranche Rate Loan hereunder without consent of any other party hereto; and, in either such event, (A) Daily Simple SOFR or Term SOFR, as applicable, shall be a Successor Rate hereunder, and (B) the Agent shall provide written notice thereof to the Lenders. Without limiting the right of Agent to make any other Conforming Changes, if the Tranche Rate is replaced with Daily Simple SOFR as provided hereunder, Daily Simple SOFR shall be reset each U.S. Government Securities Business Day by Agent.

(d)Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, if any Law shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make, fund or maintain Tranche Rate Loans, such Lender shall promptly give notice of such circumstances to Agent, Borrower and the other Lenders. In such an event, (i) the commitment of such Lender to make Tranche Rate Loans, continue Tranche Rate Loans as Tranche Rate Loans or convert Base Rate Loans to Tranche Rate Loans shall be immediately suspended and (ii) such Lender’s outstanding Tranche Rate Loans shall be converted automatically to Base Rate Loans on the last day of the Interest Period thereof or at such earlier time as may be required by Law (or with respect to Daily Simple SOFR Loans, as required by Agent).

(e)Tranche Rate Breakage Fee. Upon any payment of a Tranche Rate Loan on any day that is not the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto (regardless of the source of such prepayment and whether voluntary, by acceleration or otherwise), Borrower shall promptly pay each Lender

an amount equal to the amount of any losses, expenses and liabilities (including any loss (including interest paid) in connection with the re-employment of such funds) that such Lender sustains as a result of such default or such payment, to the extent described in the applicable Rate Contract.

(f)Increased Costs. If, after the Closing Date, any Change in Law: (i) shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including any reserve imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, or any successor thereto, but excluding any reserve included in the determination of the Tranche Rate pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement), special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by any Lender, or (ii) shall impose on any Lender any other condition affecting its Tranche Rate Loans, any of its notes issued pursuant hereto (if any) or its obligation to make Tranche Rate Loans; and the result of anything described in these clauses (i) and (ii) is to increase the cost to (or to impose a cost on) such Lender of making or maintaining any Tranche Rate Loan, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender under this Agreement or under any of its notes issued pursuant hereto (if any) with respect thereto, then upon demand by such Lender, Borrower shall promptly pay directly to such Lender such additional amount as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or such reduction, so long as such amounts have accrued on or after the day which is one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the date on which such Lender first made demand therefor (except that, if the occurrence giving rise to such increased cost or reduction is retroactive, then the one hundred eighty (180) day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof). Borrower shall not be required to compensate any Lender if (i) a claim arises solely through circumstances particular to such Lender and which do not affect commercial banks in its jurisdiction of organization generally, (ii) the claim arises out of voluntary relocation by such Lender of its applicable lending office, or (iii) such Lender is not seeking similar compensation for such costs to which it is entitled from its borrowers generally and commercial loans of similar size.

(g)Tranche Rate Conforming Changes. In connection with the use or administration of the Tranche Rate, the Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. The Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use or administration of the Tranche Rate.

2.6.General Provisions Regarding Payment. Borrower shall make each payment under this Agreement not later than noon (New York, NY time) on the day when due in immediately available funds in Dollars to Agent, at an account designated by Agent. For purposes of computing interest and Fees and determining Borrowing Availability as of any date, all payments shall be deemed received on the Business Day on which immediately available funds therefor are received in Agent’s account prior to noon New York, NY time. Payments received in the Agent’s account after noon New York, NY time on any Business Day or on a day that is not a Business Day shall be deemed to have been received on the following Business Day so long as such funds are available funds.

2.7.Loan Account. Agent shall maintain a loan account (the “Loan Account”) on its books in accordance with the Register to record all Advances, all payments made by Xxxxxxxx, and all other debits and credits as provided in this Agreement with respect to the Advances or any other Obligations. All entries in the Loan Account shall be made in accordance with Agent’s customary accounting practices as in effect from time to time. The balance in the Loan Account, as recorded on Agent’s most recent printout or other written statement, shall, absent

manifest error, be presumptive evidence of the amounts due and owing to Agent and Lenders by Xxxxxxxx; provided, that any failure to so record or any error in so recording shall not limit or otherwise affect Borrower’s duty to pay the Obligations. Agent shall render to Borrower a monthly accounting of transactions with respect to the Advances setting forth the balance of the Loan Account for the immediately preceding month. Each and every such accounting shall be presumptive evidence of all matters reflected therein absent manifest error.

2.8.Taxes.

(a)Gross-up for Taxes. All payments of principal and interest on the Advances and all other amounts payable hereunder or any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Law. If any withholding or deduction from any payment to be made by any Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document is required in respect of any Taxes pursuant to any applicable Law, then the applicable Loan Party will (i) pay directly to the relevant authority the full amount required to be so withheld or deducted, (ii) promptly forward to Agent and any applicable Lender an official receipt or other documentation satisfactory to Agent or such Lender evidencing such payment to such authority, and (iii) if the Tax is an Indemnified Tax, pay to Agent for the account of Agent and each applicable Lender such additional amount or amounts as is necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by Agent and each Lender will equal the full amount Agent and such Lender would have received had no such withholding or deduction been required. The Loan Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law, or at the option of Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes except for Excluded Taxes. If any Indemnified Taxes are directly asserted against Agent or any Lender (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to a payment received hereunder or any other Loan Document or with respect to, or arising from, the obligations of the Loan Parties under any Loan Document, the Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify Agent or such Lender, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Taxes (excluding Excluded Taxes) imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by Agent or such Lender and any reasonable, out-of-pocket, and invoiced expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto (including reasonable, out-of-pocket, and invoiced attorneys’ or tax advisor fees and expenses), whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to Agent), or by Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error.

(b)Interest and Penalties. If Borrower or any other applicable Loan Party fails to pay any Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to Agent, for the account of Agent and the respective Lenders, the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, Borrower and the other Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify Agent and Lenders for any incremental Taxes, interest or penalties and reasonable, out-of-pocket, and documented costs and expenses (including attorneys’ and tax advisor fees and expenses) that may become payable by Agent or any Lender (or any of its Affiliates) as a result of any such failure.

(c)Withholding Documentation. Each Lender that is organized under the Laws of a jurisdiction other than the United States and is a party hereto on the Closing Date or purports to become an assignee of an interest pursuant to Section 12.6(a) after the Closing Date (unless such Xxxxxx was already a Lender hereunder immediately prior to such assignment) (each such Lender a “Foreign Lender”) shall execute and deliver to each of Borrower and Agent (as Borrower or Agent may reasonably request) one or more United States Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8ECI, W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, or W-8IMY (with applicable attachment), as applicable, and other applicable forms, certificates or documents prescribed by the United States Internal Revenue Service or reasonably requested by Agent certifying as to such Lender’s

entitlement to an exemption from, or reduction of, withholding or deduction of U.S. federal withholding Taxes. Each Lender that is a U.S. Person on the Closing Date or purports to become an assignee of an interest pursuant to Section 12.6(a) after the Closing Date (unless such Xxxxxx was already a Lender hereunder immediately prior to such assignment) shall execute and deliver to each of Borrower and Agent (as Borrower or Agent may reasonably request) one or more United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-9. In addition, if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the IRC, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to Borrower and Agent at the time or times prescribed by Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the IRC) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or Agent as may be necessary for Borrower and Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Xxxxxx’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify Borrower and Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(d)Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any Lender or Agent determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.8 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.8(d)), it shall, so long as no Event of Default is occurring, pay to Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such Lender, Agent or their respective Affiliates and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). The Loan Parties, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such Lender or Agent the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 2.8(d) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such Lender, Agent or their respective Affiliates is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.8(d), in no event will any Lender or Agent be required to pay any amount to a Loan Party pursuant to this Section 2.8(d) the payment of which would place such Person (or its Affiliates) in a less favorable net after-Tax position than such Person (or its Affiliates) would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This Section 2.8(d) shall not be construed to require any Lender, Agent, or their Affiliates to make available its respective Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to a Loan Party or any other Person.

(e)Usage of Terms. For the purposes of this Section 2.8 and the definitions of Excluded Tax, Indemnified Tax, Taxes, and Other Taxes used therein, “Lender” means any Lender, and, subject to Section 12.6(b), any Participant.

2.9.Capital Adequacy. If any Lender or any Person controlling such Lender shall reasonably determine that any Change in Law has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such controlling Person’s capital as a consequence of such Lender’s obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or such controlling Person could have achieved but for such Change in Law, then from time to time, upon demand by such Lender, Borrower shall promptly pay to such Lender such additional amount as will compensate such Lender or such controlling Person for such reduction, so long as such amounts have accrued on or after the day which is nine (9) months prior to the date on which such Lender first made demand

therefor (except that, if the occurrence giving rise to such increased cost or reduction is retroactive, then the nine (9) month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

2.10.Mitigation Obligations. If any Lender requests compensation under either Section 2.5(f) or Section 2.9, or requires Borrower to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.8, then, upon the written request of Xxxxxxxx, such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Advances hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder (subject to the provisions of Section 12.6) to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (a) would eliminate or materially reduce amounts payable pursuant to any such Section, as the case may be, in the future, (b) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense, and (c) would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender (as determined in its sole discretion). Without limitation of the provisions of Section 10.1, Xxxxxxxx hereby agrees to pay all reasonable, out-of-pocket, and invoiced costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

2.11.Defaulting Lenders.

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

(i)Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Xxxxxx’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Required Lenders and Section 12.5(d).

(ii)Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article 9 of this Agreement or otherwise) or received by Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to a right of setoff available with respect to such Defaulting Lender shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to Agent hereunder; second, as Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Advance in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by Agent; third, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fourth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and fifth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Advances in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Advances were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 8 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Advances of, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Advances of such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Advances are held by

the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments without giving effect to clause (iv) below. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this Section shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii)Fees. No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Fee for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and Borrower shall not be required to pay any such Fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).

(b)Defaulting Lender Cure. If Borrower and Agent agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Advances of the other Lenders or take such other actions as Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Advances to be held pro rata by the Lenders, whereupon, such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to Fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of Borrower while that Xxxxxx was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Xxxxxx’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

2.12.Notes. Any Lender may request that Advances made by it be evidenced by a promissory note (a “Note”). In such event, Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a Note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form approved by Agent. Thereafter, subject to Section 2.7, the Advances evidenced by such Notes and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 12.6 ) be represented by one or more Notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if any such Note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns).

2.13.Account Debit. Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes the Agent to charge any of the Borrower’s deposit accounts maintained with the Agent for the amounts from time to time necessary to pay any then due Obligations; provided that Xxxxxxxx acknowledges and agrees that the Agent shall not be under an obligation to do so and the Agent shall not incur any liability to Borrower or any other Person for the Agent’s failure to do so. In the event the Agent debits the Borrower’s accounts by an amount in excess of the fees or charges properly due on a day, then forthwith upon the error being discovered, the Agent shall reimburse Borrower such excess amount.

3.	REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

Each Loan Party jointly and severally agrees that from and after the date hereof until the Termination Date:

6.1.Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. The Existing Credit Agreement Borrowers shall not suffer or permit, as of the end of each fiscal quarter of the Universal Group beginning with the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2021, the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio to be less than 1.10 to 1.00.

6.2.Leverage Ratio. The Existing Credit Agreement Borrowers shall not suffer or permit, as of the end of each fiscal quarter of the Universal Group beginning with the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2021, the Leverage Ratio to exceed 3.50 to 1.00 (or 4.00 to 1.00 during a Leverage Ratio Step-Up Period.)

Agent shall not be liable for any apportionment or distribution of payments made by it in good faith and if any such apportionment or distribution is subsequently determined to have been made in error the sole recourse of any Lender to whom payment was due but not made, shall be to recover from other Lenders any payment in excess of the amount to which they are determined to be entitled (and such other Lenders hereby agree to return to such Lender any such erroneous payments received by them).

11.6.Indemnification. To the extent that the Loan Parties for any reason fail to indefeasibly pay any amount required to be paid to Agent under Sections 10.1 or 10.2 (but without affecting the Loan Parties’ reimbursement and indemnification obligation hereunder), each Lender shall, in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, pay to Agent such Lender’s portion of such unpaid amount (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought based on each Lender’s Applicable Percentage at such time). If any indemnity furnished to Agent for any purpose shall, in the opinion of Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against even if so directed by Required Lenders until such additional indemnity is furnished.

11.7.Right to Request and Act on Instructions. Agent may at any time request instructions from Lenders with respect to any actions or approvals which by the terms of this Agreement or of any of the Loan Documents Agent is permitted or desires to take or to grant, and if such instructions are promptly requested, Agent shall be absolutely entitled to refrain from taking any action or to withhold any approval and shall not be under any liability whatsoever to any Person for refraining from any action or withholding any approval under any of the Loan Documents until it shall have received such instructions from Required Lenders or all or such other portion of Lenders as shall be prescribed by this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of Agent acting or refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of Required Lenders (or all or such other portion of Lenders as shall be prescribed by this Agreement) and, notwithstanding the instructions of Required Lenders (or such other applicable portion of Lenders), Agent shall have no obligation to take any action if it believes, in good faith, that such action would violate applicable Law or exposes Agent to any liability for which it has not received satisfactory indemnification in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.6.

11.8.Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking any action under the Loan Documents.

11.9.Collateral Matters. Lenders irrevocably authorize Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to (i) release any Lien granted to or held by Agent under any Collateral Document (A) upon payment in full of all Obligations, and, to the extent required by Agent in its sole discretion, the expiration, termination or cash collateralization (to the satisfaction of Agent) of all Rate Contract Obligations and all obligations, liabilities and indebtedness in respect of Bank Products in each case secured, in whole or in part, by any Collateral, or (B) constituting property sold or disposed of as part of or in connection with any disposition permitted under any Loan Document (it being understood and agreed that Agent may conclusively rely without further inquiry on a certificate of a Responsible Officer as to the sale or other disposition of property being made in full compliance with the provisions of the Loan Documents), (ii) release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Loan Documents (A) upon payment in full of all Obligations, and, to the extent required by Agent in its sole discretion, the expiration, termination or cash collateralization (to the satisfaction of Agent) of all Rate Contract Obligations and all obligations, liabilities and indebtedness in respect of Bank Products in each case secured, in whole or in part, by any Collateral, or (B) upon such Guarantor ceasing to be a Subsidiary pursuant to a transaction permitted by this Agreement (it being understood and agreed that Agent may conclusively rely without further inquiry on a certificate of a Responsible Officer as to the sale or other disposition being made in full compliance with the provisions of the Loan Documents), and (iii) release or subordinate any Lien granted to or held by Agent under any Collateral Document constituting property described in Section 5.7(b) (it being understood and agreed that Agent may conclusively rely without further inquiry on a certificate of a Responsible Officer as to the identification of any property described in Section 5.7(b)). Upon request by Agent at any time, Xxxxxxx will confirm Agent’s authority to release and/or subordinate particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 11.9.

11.10.Agency for Perfection. Agent and each Lender hereby appoint each other Lender as agent for the purpose of perfecting Agent’s security interest in assets which, in accordance with the Code in any applicable jurisdiction, can be perfected by possession or control. Should any Lender (other than Agent) obtain possession or control of any such assets, such Lender shall notify Agent thereof, and, promptly upon Agent’s request therefor, shall deliver such assets to Agent or in accordance with Agent’s instructions or transfer control to Agent in accordance with Agent’s instructions. Each Lender agrees that it will not have any right individually to enforce or seek to enforce any Collateral Document or to realize upon any Collateral for the Advances unless instructed to do so by Agent (or consented to by Agent, as provided in Section 9.2(d)), it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised only by Agent.

11.11.Notice of Default. Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default unless Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event

of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. Agent will notify each Lender of its receipt of any such notice. Each Lender agrees to give prompt written notice to the Agent of any Default or Event of Default of which it obtains knowledge. Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by Required Lenders (or all or such other portion of Lenders as shall be prescribed by this Agreement) in accordance with the terms hereof. Unless and until Agent has received any such request, 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 interests of Lenders.

11.12.Successor Agent.

(a)Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to Xxxxxxx and Xxxxxxxx. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with Xxxxxxxx, to appoint a successor Agent. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Agent hereunder and notice of such acceptance to the retiring Agent, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Agent, the retiring Agent’s resignation shall become immediately effective and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (if such resignation was not already effective and such duties and obligations not already discharged, as provided below in this paragraph). The Fees payable by Borrower to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between Borrower and such successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by Required Xxxxxxx and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may on behalf of Xxxxxxx appoint a successor Agent, which appointment shall not be subject to consent by Required Lenders or any Loan Party. From and following the expiration of such 30 day period, Agent shall have the exclusive right, upon 1 Business Days’ notice to Xxxxxxxx and Lenders, to make its resignation effective immediately. From and following the effectiveness of such notice, (i) the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; provided that, solely for purposes of maintaining any security interest granted to the Agent under any Collateral Document for the benefit of the Lenders, the retiring Agent shall continue to be vested with such security interest as collateral agent for the benefit of the Lenders, and continue to be entitled to the rights set forth in such Collateral Document and Loan Document, and, in the case of any Collateral in the possession of the Agent, shall continue to hold such Collateral, in each case until such time as a successor Agent is appointed and accepts such appointment in accordance with this Section (it being understood and agreed that the retiring Agent shall have no duty or obligation to take any further action under any Collateral Document, including any action required to maintain the perfection of any such security interest), and (ii) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender, until such time as Required Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided for above in this paragraph. The provisions of this Agreement shall continue in effect for the benefit of any retiring Agent and its sub-agents after the effectiveness of its resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them (x) while the retiring Agent was acting or was continuing to act as Agent and (y) after such resignation for as long as any of them continues to act in any capacity hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, including acting as collateral agent or otherwise holding any collateral security on behalf of any of the holders of the Obligations and in respect of any actions taken in connection with transferring the agency to any successor Agent.

11.13.Disbursements of Term Loan Advances; Payment and Sharing of Payment.

(a)Funding of Term Loan on Closing Date; Payments and Settlements; Interest and Fee Payments. Each Term Loan Lender shall remit to Agent the amount of the Term Loan to be advanced

by such Term Loan Lender to Borrower on the Closing Date, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, on or prior to the Closing Date. Nothing in this Section 11.13 or elsewhere in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to require Agent to advance funds on behalf of any Lender or to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that Agent or Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

(b)Return of Payments.

(i)If Agent pays an amount to a Lender under this Agreement in the belief or expectation that a related payment has been or will be received by Agent from Borrower and such related payment is not received by Agent, then Agent will be entitled to recover such amount from such Lender on demand without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind, together with interest accruing on a daily basis at the Federal Funds Rate.

(ii)If Agent determines at any time that any amount received by Agent under this Agreement must be returned to Borrower or paid to any other Person pursuant to any insolvency Law or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term or condition of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Agent will not be required to distribute any portion thereof to any Lender. In addition, each Lender will repay to Agent on demand any portion of such amount that Agent has distributed to such Lender, together with interest at such rate, if any, as Agent is required to pay to Borrower or such other Person, without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.

(c)Defaulting Lenders. The failure of any Defaulting Lender to make any Advances or any payment required by it hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations to make such Advances or payment, but neither any other Lender nor Agent shall be responsible for the failure of any Defaulting Lender to make Advances or make any other payment required hereunder.

(d)Sharing of Payments. If any Lender shall obtain any payment or other recovery (whether voluntary, involuntary, by application of setoff or otherwise) on account of any Advance (other than pursuant to the terms of Section 2.8) in excess of its pro rata share of payments entitled pursuant to the other provisions of this Section 11.13, such Lender shall purchase from the other Lenders such participations in extensions of credit made by such other Lenders (without recourse, representation or warranty) as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment or other recovery ratably with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of the excess payment or other recovery is thereafter required to be returned or otherwise recovered from such purchasing Lender, such portion of such purchase shall be rescinded and each Lender which has sold a participation to the purchasing Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the ratable extent of such return or recovery, without interest. Xxxxxxxx agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this clause (d) may, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, exercise all its rights of payment (including pursuant to Section 9) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of Borrower in the amount of such participation. If under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar Law, any Lender receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff to which this clause (d) 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 Lenders entitled under this clause (d) to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim.

11.14.Withholding Tax. To the extent required by any applicable Law, Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. If the IRS or any authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that Agent did not properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender (because the appropriate form was not delivered, was not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to

notify Agent of a change in circumstances that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax ineffective, or for any other reason), such Xxxxxx shall indemnify Agent (to the extent that Agent has not already been reimbursed by a Loan Party and without limiting the obligation of any Loan Party to do so) fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by Agent as Tax or otherwise, including penalties and interest, together with all expenses incurred, including legal expenses, allocated staff costs and any out of pocket expenses.

11.15.Agent May File Proof of Claim.

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

(i)to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Advances 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 Lenders and Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Lenders and Agent and its agents and counsel and all other amounts due Lenders, Swing Line Lender and Agent under Section 10.1) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

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

(b)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 Agent and, if Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to Lenders, to pay to Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due Agent under Section 10.1.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize 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 Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

11.16.Agent in Individual Capacity. Fifth Third and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, provide Bank Products to, acquire Stock in, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting, or other business with each Loan Party and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates and any other Person party to any Loan Document as though Fifth Third were not Agent hereunder, and, in each case, without notice to or consent of the other Lenders. The other Lenders acknowledge (and by entering into an agreement regarding Bank Products, each provider of Bank Products shall be deemed to acknowledge) that, pursuant to such activities, Fifth Third or its Affiliates may receive information regarding Loan Parties or their Affiliates or any other Person party to any Loan Documents that is subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of Borrower or such other Person and that prohibit the disclosure of such information to the Lenders (or providers of Bank Products), and the Lenders acknowledge (and by entering into an agreement regarding Bank Products, each provider of Bank Products shall be deemed to acknowledge) that, in such circumstances (and in the absence of a

waiver of such confidentiality obligations, which waiver Agent will use its reasonable best efforts to obtain), Agent shall not be under any obligation to provide such information to them. The terms “Lender” and “Lenders” include Fifth Third in its individual capacity.

11.17.ERISA Fiduciary Representations and Warranties.

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

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

(ii)the transaction exemption set forth in one or more PTEs, such as PTE 84-14 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by independent qualified professional asset managers), PTE 95-60 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company general accounts), PTE 90-1 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company pooled separate accounts), PTE 91-38 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving bank collective investment funds) or PTE 96-23 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by in-house asset managers), is applicable with respect to such Xxxxxx’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Advances, the Commitments and this Agreement,

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

(iv)such other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between Agent, in its sole discretion, and such Lender.

(b)In addition, unless either (1) sub-clause (i) in the immediately preceding clause (a) is true with respect to a Lender or (2) a Lender has provided another representation, warranty and covenant in accordance with sub-clause (iv) in the immediately preceding clause (a), such Lender further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, Agent and the Arranger and their respective Affiliates and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of Borrower or any other Loan Party, that none of Agent, the Arranger, or any of their respective Affiliates is a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender involved in such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Advances, and this Agreement (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by Agent under this Agreement, any Loan Document or any documents related hereto or thereto).

11.18.Acknowledgments Regarding Erroneous Payments.

(a)Each Lender hereby agrees that (x) if Agent notifies such Lender that Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds received by such Lender from Agent or any of its Affiliates (whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees or otherwise; individually and collectively, a “Payment”) were erroneously transmitted to such Lender (whether or not known to such Lender), and demands the return of such Payment (or a portion thereof), such Lender shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender or such L/C Issuer to the date such amount is repaid to Agent at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect, and (y) to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender shall not assert, and hereby waives, as to Agent, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by Agent for the return of any Payments received, including without limitation any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine. A notice of Agent to any Lender under this Section 11.18 shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(b)Each Lender hereby further agrees that if it receives a Payment from Agent or any of its Affiliates (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment sent by Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such Payment (a “Payment Notice”) or (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a Payment Notice, it shall be on notice, in each such case, that an error has been made with respect to such Payment. Each Lender agrees that, in each such case, or if it otherwise becomes aware a Payment (or portion thereof) may have been sent in error, such Lender shall promptly notify Agent of such occurrence and, upon demand from Agent, it shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to Agent at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect.

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

(d)Each party’s obligations under this Section 11.18 shall survive the resignation or replacement of Agent or any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations under any Loan Document.

12.	MISCELLANEOUS

12.1.Survival. All agreements, representations and warranties made herein and in every other Loan Document shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The provisions of Sections 2.5(f), 2.8, 2.9 and 2.10 and Sections 10, 11 and 12 shall survive the payment of the Obligations (both with respect to any Lender and all Lenders collectively) and any termination of this Agreement.

12.2.No Waivers. No failure or delay by Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege under any Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein and therein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by Law. Any reference in any Loan Document to the “continuing” nature of any Event of Default shall not be construed as establishing or otherwise indicating that Borrower or any other Loan Party has the independent right to cure any such Event of Default but is rather presented merely for convenience should such Event of Default be waived in accordance with the terms of the applicable Loan Documents.

12.3.Notices.

(a)All notices, requests and other communications to any party hereunder shall be in writing (including prepaid overnight courier, e‑mail, electronic submissions or similar writing, but not facsimile transmission) and shall be given to such party at its address or e‑mail address set forth on the signature pages hereof (or, in the case of any such Lender who becomes a Lender after the date hereof, in an Assignment Agreement or in a notice delivered to Borrower and Agent by the assignee Lender forthwith upon such assignment) or at such other address or e‑mail address as such party may hereafter specify for the purpose by notice to Agent and Borrower; provided, that notices, requests or other communications shall be permitted by e‑mail or other electronic submissions only in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.3(b). Each such notice, request or other communication shall be effective (i) if given by e‑mail or other electronic submissions, as set forth in Section 12.3(c) or (ii) if given by mail, prepaid overnight courier or any other means, when received at the applicable address specified by this Section. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, and for the avoidance of any doubt, notices, requests and other communications delivered by facsimile transmission do not satisfy the requirements of this Section 12.3 unless specifically authorized and approved by the party receiving such notice, request, or other communication.

(b)Notices and other communications to the parties hereto may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e‑mail and Internet or intranet websites); provided, that the foregoing shall not apply to notices sent directly to any party hereto if such party has notified Agent that it has elected not to receive notices by electronic communication (which election may be limited to particular notices).

(c)Unless Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e‑mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgment from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e‑mail or other written acknowledgment), and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e‑mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor; provided, that if any such notice or other communication is not sent or posted during normal business hours, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next Business Day.

12.4.Severability. In case any provision of or obligation under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

12.5.Amendments and Waivers.

(a)General Provisions. No provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (other than the Fee Letter) may be amended, waived or otherwise modified unless such amendment, waiver or other modification is in writing and is signed or otherwise approved by Borrower, Agent and Required Lenders; provided, that no such amendment, waiver or other modification shall, unless signed or otherwise approved in writing by Agent, Borrower and all Lenders directly affected thereby, (A) reduce the principal of, rate of interest on or any Fees with respect to any Advance or reimbursement obligation or forgive any principal, interest or Fees with respect to any Advance or reimbursement obligation, (B) postpone the date fixed for, or waive, any payment (other than a payment pursuant to Section 2.2(b)) of principal of any Advance, or of any reimbursement obligation or of interest on any Advance or any reimbursement obligation or any Fees hereunder or postpone the date of termination of the commitment of any Lender hereunder or increase the amount of the commitment of any Lender hereunder, (C) change the definition of the term Required Lenders or the percentage of Lenders which shall be required for Lenders to take any action hereunder, (D) release all or substantially all of the Collateral, authorize Borrower or any other Loan Party to sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the Collateral or release all or substantially all of the value of the Guarantor, except, in each case with respect to this clause (D), as otherwise may be provided in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (including in connection with any disposition permitted hereunder and including as provided in Section 11.9), (E) modify Section 9.3, (F) amend, waive or otherwise modify this Section 12.5(a) or the definitions of the terms used in this Section 12.5(a) insofar as the definitions affect the substance of this Section 12.5(a); or (G) consent to the assignment, delegation or other transfer by any Loan Party of any of its rights and obligations under any Loan Document or release Borrower or any other Loan Party of its payment obligations under any Loan Document, except, in each case with respect to this clause (G), pursuant to a merger, consolidation or other transaction permitted pursuant to this Agreement. It is hereby understood and agreed that all Lenders shall be deemed directly affected by an amendment, waiver or other modification of the type described in the preceding clauses (C), (D), (E), (F) and (G) of the preceding sentence. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, this Agreement may be amended and restated without the consent of any Lender (but with the consent of Borrower and Agent) if upon giving effect to such amendment and restatement, such Lender shall no longer be a party to this Agreement (as so amended and restated), such Lender shall have no other commitment or other obligation hereunder and shall have been paid in full all principal, interest and other amounts owing to it or accrued for its account under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein or otherwise to the contrary, any Event of Default occurring hereunder shall continue to exist (and shall be deemed to be continuing) until such time as such Event of Default is waived in writing in accordance with the terms of this Section 12.5 notwithstanding (i) any attempted cure or other action taken by Borrower or any other Person subsequent to the occurrence of such Event of Default or (ii) any action taken or omitted to be taken by Agent or any Lender prior to or subsequent to the occurrence of such Event of Default (other than the granting of a waiver in writing in accordance with the terms of this Section).

(b)All Lender Consent Rights. No amendment or waiver shall, unless signed by Agent and all Lenders (or by Agent with the consent of all Lenders) (x) amend or waive this Section 12.5(b) or the definitions of the terms used in this Section 12.5(b) insofar as the definitions affect the substance of this Section 12.5(b); (y) change the definition of (i) the term Required Lenders, (ii) the percentage of Lenders which shall be required for Lenders to take any action hereunder, or (iii) change any specific right of Required Lenders to grant or withhold consent or take or omit to take any action hereunder.

(c)Agent Consent Rights. No amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by Agent, in addition to the Required Lenders or all Lenders directly affected thereby, as the case may be (or by Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders or all the Lenders directly affected thereby, as the case may be), affect the rights or duties of Agent, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(d)Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the contrary, a Defaulting Lender shall not have any voting or consent rights under or with respect to any Loan Document or constitute a “Lender” (or be included in the determination of “Required Lenders” or “Lenders directly affected” pursuant to this Section 12.5) for any voting or consent rights under or with respect to any Loan Document, except that a Defaulting Lender shall be treated as an Affected Lender solely with respect to a reduction of the principal amount owed to such Defaulting Lender or, unless such Defaulting Lender is treated the same as the other Lenders holding Advances of the same type, a reduction in the interest rates applicable to the Advances held by such Defaulting Lender, and any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each Affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender disproportionately adversely relative to other Affected Lender shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender. Moreover, for the purposes of determining Required Lenders, the Advances held by Defaulting Lenders shall be excluded from the total Advances outstanding.

(e)Certain Amendments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 12.5, (i) Agent may amend Annex B to reflect any assignments entered into pursuant to Section 12.6, and (ii) Agent and Borrower may amend or modify this Agreement and any other Loan Document to (1) cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency therein, and (2) grant a new Lien for the benefit of the Secured Parties, extend an existing Lien over additional property for the benefit of the Secured Parties or join additional Persons as Loan Parties.

(f)Eligible Swap Counterparty and Bank Product Consent Rights. Without limitation of the foregoing provisions of this Section 12.5, no waiver, amendment or other modification to this Agreement shall, unless signed by each Eligible Swap Counterparty and each provider of Bank Products then in existence, modify the provisions of Section 9.3 in any manner adverse to the interests of each such Eligible Swap Counterparty and/or such provider of Bank Products.

12.6.Assignments; Participations; Replacement of Lenders.

(i)Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or any portion of such Xxxxxx’s Advances together with all related obligations of such Lender hereunder. Except as Agent may otherwise agree, the amount of any such assignment (determined as of the date of the applicable Assignment Agreement or, if a “Trade Date” is specified in such Assignment Agreement, as of such Trade Date) shall be in a minimum aggregate amount equal to $5,000,000 or, if less, the assignor’s entire interests in the outstanding Advances; provided, that, in connection with simultaneous assignments to two or more related Affiliates or Approved Funds, such Affiliates and Approved Funds shall be treated as one assignee for purposes of determining compliance with the minimum assignment size referred to above. Borrower and Agent shall be entitled to continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with the interests so assigned to an Eligible Assignee until Agent shall have received and accepted an effective Assignment Agreement executed, delivered and fully completed by the applicable parties thereto, such other information regarding such Eligible Assignee as Agent reasonably shall require and a processing fee of $3,500; provided, only one processing fee shall be payable in connection with simultaneous assignments to two or more related Affiliates and Approved Funds.

(ii)From and after the date on which the conditions described above have been met, (A) such Eligible Assignee shall be deemed automatically to have become a party hereto and, to the extent of the interests assigned to such Eligible Assignee pursuant to such Assignment Agreement, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and (B) the assigning Lender, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to

such Assignment Agreement, shall be released from its rights and obligations hereunder (other than those that survive termination pursuant to Section 12.1). Upon the request of the Eligible Assignee (and, as applicable, the assigning Lender) pursuant to an effective Assignment Agreement, Borrower shall execute and deliver to Agent for delivery to the Eligible Assignee (and, as applicable, the assigning Lender) Notes in the aggregate principal amount of the Eligible Assignee’s percentage interest in the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan (and, as applicable, Notes in the principal amount of that portion of the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loan retained by the assigning Lender). Upon receipt by the assigning Lender of such promissory note, the assigning Lender shall return to Borrower any prior promissory note, if any, held by it.

(iii)Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Xxxxxxxx, shall maintain at its offices located in Cincinnati, Ohio, a copy of each Assignment Agreement delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of each Lender, and the commitments of, and principal amount and stated interest of the Advances owing to, such Lender pursuant to the terms hereof (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and Xxxxxxxx, Agent and Xxxxxxx may treat each Person whose name is recorded therein pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time upon reasonable prior notice to Agent. It is intended that the Register be maintained such that the Advances are in “registered form” for the purposes of the IRC.

(iv)Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 12.6(a) or any other provision of this Agreement, any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided, that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(b)Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, Borrower or Agent, sell to one or more Persons participating interests in its Advances, commitments or other interests hereunder (any such Person, a “Participant”). In the event of a sale by a Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, (i) such Xxxxxx’s obligations hereunder shall remain unchanged for all purposes, (ii) Borrower and Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations hereunder, and (iii) all amounts payable by Borrower shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation and shall be paid directly to such Lender, provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower hereby agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.10 (subject to the requirements and limitations set forth in Section 2.11) and the requirements under Section 2.9 (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.9 shall be delivered to the participating Lender) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section 12.6; provided, further, a Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.10, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a change in Law, regulation ruling, treaty or other action or doctrine of a Governmental Authority that occurs after the date the Participant acquired the applicable participation. No Participant shall have any direct or indirect voting rights hereunder except with respect to any event described in Section 12.5 expressly requiring the unanimous vote of all Lenders or, as applicable, all Affected Lenders. Xxxxxxxx agrees that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement are due and payable (as a result of acceleration or otherwise), each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of set-off in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement; provided, that

such right of set-off shall be subject to the obligation of each Participant to share with Lenders, and Lenders agree to share with each Participant, as provided in Section 9.2(d). Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Xxxxxxxx, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Advances or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided, that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, Agent (in its capacity as Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(c)Replacement of Lenders. Within 30 days after (i) receipt by Agent of notice and demand from any Lender for payment of additional costs or as provided in Sections 2.5(e) and 2.9, which demand shall not have been revoked, (ii) Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.8, (iii) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, and the circumstances causing such status shall not have been cured or waived; or (iv) any failure by any Lender to consent to a requested amendment, waiver or modification to any Loan Document in which Required Lenders have already consented to such amendment, waiver or modification but the consent of each Lender, or each Lender affected thereby, is required with respect thereto (each relevant Lender in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iv) being an “Affected Lender”), Borrower and/or Agent may, at its option, notify such Affected Lender and, in the case of Borrower’s election, Agent, of such Person’s intention to obtain, at Borrower’s expense, a replacement Lender (“Replacement Lender”) for such Lender, which Replacement Lender shall be an Eligible Assignee and, in the event the Replacement Lender is to replace an Affected Lender described in the preceding clause (iv), such Replacement Lender consents to the requested amendment, waiver or modification making the replaced Lender an Affected Lender. In the event Borrower or Agent, as applicable, obtains a Replacement Lender within 90 days following notice of its intention to do so, the Affected Lender shall sell, at par, and assign all of its Advances and funding commitments hereunder to such Replacement Lender in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 12.6(a); provided, that (A) Borrower shall have, as applicable, reimbursed such Lender for its increased costs and additional payments for which it is entitled to reimbursement under any of Sections 2.5(e), 2.8 or 2.9, as applicable, of this Agreement through the date of such sale and assignment and (B) Borrower shall pay to Agent the $3,500 processing fee in respect of such assignment. In the event that a replaced Xxxxxx does not execute an Assignment Agreement pursuant to Section 12.6(a) within 5 Business Days after receipt by such replaced Lender of notice of replacement pursuant to this Section 12.6(c) and presentation to such replaced Lender of an Assignment Agreement evidencing an assignment pursuant to this Section 12.6(c), such replaced Xxxxxx shall be deemed to have consented to the terms of such Assignment Agreement, and any such Assignment Agreement executed by Agent, the Replacement Lender and, to the extent required pursuant to Section 12.6(a), Borrower, shall be effective for purposes of this Section 12.6(c) and Section 12.6(a). Upon any such assignment and payment, such replaced Lender shall no longer constitute a “Lender” for purposes hereof, other than with respect to such rights and obligations that survive termination as set forth in Section 12.1.

(d)Loan Party Assignments. No Loan Party may assign, delegate or otherwise transfer any of its rights or other obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of Agent and each Lender.

12.7.Headings. Headings and captions used in the Loan Documents (including the Schedules and Annexes hereto and thereto) are included for convenience of reference only and shall not be given any substantive effect.

12.8.Confidentiality. Agent and each Lender shall hold all non-public information regarding the Loan Parties and their respective businesses identified as such by Xxxxxxxx and obtained by Agent or any Lender pursuant to the requirements hereof in accordance with such Person’s customary procedures for handling information of such nature, except that disclosure of such information may be made (i) to such Person’s Affiliates and the partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, trustees, administrators, managers, auditors, professional consultants, advisors and representatives of such Person and of such Person’s Affiliates (collectively, the “Related Parties” of such Person) (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), (ii) to rating agencies, insurance industry associations and portfolio management services, (iii) to prospective transferees or purchasers of or participants in any interest in the Advances and, as applicable, the Loan Documents, to prospective contractual counterparties (or the professional advisors thereto) in Rate Contracts permitted hereby and to prospective providers of Bank Products, provided, that any such Persons shall have agreed to be bound by the provisions of this Section 12.8, (iv) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or its Related Parties, including any self-regulatory authority, (v) to any other Party hereto, (vi) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (vii) as required by Law, subpoena, judicial order or similar order and in connection with any Litigation, (viii) as may be required in connection with the examination, audit or similar investigation of such Person, (ix) with the consent of the Borrower, (x) to the extent such information (A) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section, or (B) becomes available to the Agent or any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Loan Parties, and (xi) to a Person that is a trustee, investment advisor, collateral manager, servicer, noteholder or secured party in a Securitization (as hereinafter defined) in connection with the administration, servicing and reporting on the assets serving as collateral for such Securitization. For the purposes of this Section, “Securitization” shall mean a public or private offering by a Lender or any of its Affiliates or their respective successors and assigns, of Stock or debt securities which represent an interest in, or which are collateralized, in whole or in part, by the Advances. Confidential information shall include only such information identified as such at the time provided to Agent and shall not include information that either (A) is in the public domain or becomes part of the public domain after disclosure to such Person through no fault of such Person, or (B) is disclosed to such Person by a Person other than a Loan Party, provided, Agent does not have actual knowledge that such Person is prohibited from disclosing such information. The obligations of Agent and Lenders under this Section 12.8 shall supersede and replace the obligations of Agent and Lenders under any confidentiality agreement in respect of this financing executed and delivered by Agent or any Lender prior to the date hereof.

12.9.Waiver of Consequential and Other Damages. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, no Loan Party shall assert, and each Loan Party hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result

of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Advance or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

12.10.Marshaling; Payments Set Aside. Neither Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that any Loan Party makes any payment or Agent enforces its Liens or Agent or any Lender exercises its right of set-off, and such payment or the proceeds of such enforcement or set-off is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, or required to be repaid by anyone, then to the extent of such recovery, the Obligations or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefore, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such enforcement or set-off had not occurred.

12.11.GOVERNING LAW; SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. THIS AGREEMENT, EACH NOTE AND EACH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, AND ALL MATTERS RELATING HERETO OR THERETO OR ARISING THEREFROM (WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT LAW, TORT LAW OR OTHERWISE), SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF MICHIGAN, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES. EACH LOAN PARTY, AGENT, AND EACH LENDER HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE JURISDICTION OF ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT LOCATED WITHIN THE COUNTY OF MACOMB, STATE OF MICHIGAN AND IRREVOCABLY AGREES THAT ALL ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS SHALL BE LITIGATED IN SUCH COURTS. EACH LOAN PARTY, AGENT, AND EACH LENDER EXPRESSLY SUBMITS AND CONSENTS TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS AND WAIVES ANY DEFENSE OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS. EACH LOAN PARTY, AGENT, AND EACH LENDER HEREBY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF ANY AND ALL PROCESS AND AGREES THAT ALL SUCH SERVICE OF PROCESS MAY BE MADE UPON EACH SUCH LOAN PARTY BY CERTIFIED OR REGISTERED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, ADDRESSED TO SUCH LOAN PARTY, AGENT, OR LENDER AT THE ADDRESS SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT AND SERVICE SO MADE SHALL BE COMPLETE 10 DAYS AFTER THE SAME HAS BEEN POSTED.

12.12.WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH LOAN PARTY, AGENT AND XXXXXXX HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREBY AND AGREES THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE TRIED BEFORE A COURT AND NOT BEFORE A JURY. EACH LOAN PARTY, AGENT AND EACH LENDER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO ENTER INTO A BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP, THAT EACH HAS RELIED ON THE WAIVER IN ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, AND

THAT EACH WILL CONTINUE TO RELY ON THIS WAIVER IN THEIR RELATED FUTURE DEALINGS. EACH LOAN PARTY, AGENT AND EACH LENDER WARRANTS AND REPRESENTS THAT EACH HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY OF REVIEWING THIS JURY WAIVER WITH LEGAL COUNSEL, AND THAT EACH KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS.

12.13.Publication; Advertisement.

(a)Publication. No Loan Party will directly or indirectly publish, disclose or otherwise use in any public disclosure, advertising material, promotional material, press release or interview, any reference to the name, logo or any trademark of Fifth Third or any of its Affiliates or any reference to this Agreement or the financing evidenced hereby, in any case except (i) as required by Law, subpoena or judicial or similar order, in which case the applicable Loan Party shall give Agent prior written notice of such publication or other disclosure or (ii) with Fifth Third’s prior written consent.

(b)Advertisement.

In addition, each Lender and each Loan Party agrees that Fifth Third may provide lending industry trade organizations with information necessary and customary for inclusion in league table measurements after the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Fifth Third acknowledges that Parent is subject to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the NASDAQ Stock Market LLC, and Fifth Third agrees to consult with Borrower before issuing any press releases or otherwise making any public statements with respect to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, and Fifth Third shall not issue any such press release or other documents or make any such public statement before Borrower agrees on the content and timing of such press release or other publication.

12.14.Counterparts; Integration. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. Signatures by facsimile or other electronic transmission (including “pdf” or “tif” format) shall bind the parties hereto. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire agreement and understanding among the parties hereto and supersede any and all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof.

12.15.No Strict Construction. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Agreement.

12.16.USA PATRIOT Act Notification. Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) and each Lender hereby notifies each Loan Party that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record certain information and documentation that identifies such Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of each Loan Party and such other information that will allow Agent or such Lender, as applicable,

to identify such Loan Party in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act.

12.17.Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(a)the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA 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 EEA Financial Institution, its parent entity, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

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

12.18.Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs

To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Rate Contracts or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States), and in the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or

any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

12.19.Co-Borrower; Guarantor Provisions.

(a)Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that it is the intent of the parties that each such Borrower be primarily liable for the Obligations as a joint and several obligor. Each Guarantor absolutely and unconditionally guarantees, jointly and severally, to the Lenders the full and prompt payment by the Borrower of all Obligations hereunder.

(b)It is the intention of the parties that with respect to liability of any Loan Party hereunder arising solely by reason of its being jointly and severally liable for, or guaranteeing the full and prompt payment of, all Obligations, the obligations of such Loan Party shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable irrespective of: (i) any lack of validity, legality or enforceability of this Agreement or any Note as to any Loan Party, as the case may be; (ii) the failure of Agent or any Lender or any holder of any Note to enforce any right or remedy against any Loan Party, as the case may be, or any other Person (including any guarantor) under the provisions of this Agreement, any Note, or otherwise or to exercise any right or remedy against any guarantor of, or collateral securing, any obligations; (iii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations, or any other extension, compromise or renewal of any Obligation; (iv) any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination of any Obligations with respect to any Loan Party, as the case may be, for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to (and each Borrower hereby waives any right to or claim of) any defense (other than the defense of payment in full of the Obligations) or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality, nongenuineness, irregularity, compromise, unenforceability of, or any other event or occurrence affecting, any Obligations with respect to any Loan Party, as the case may be; (v) any addition, exchange, release, surrender or nonperfection of any Collateral, or any amendment to or waiver or release or addition of, or consent to departure from, any guaranty, held by Agent or any holder of any Note securing any of the Obligations; or (vi) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense (other than the defense of payment in full of the Obligations) available to, or a legal or equitable discharge of, any Loan Party, as the case may be, any surety or any guarantor. Each Borrower agrees that its joint and several liability, and each Guarantor agrees that its guaranty liability, hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment (in whole or in part) of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must be restores by Agent, Lenders or any holder of any Note, upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Loan Party, as the case may be, as though such payment had not been made.

(c)Each Loan Party hereby expressly waives: (i) notice of Agent’s and Lenders’ acceptance of this Agreement; (ii) notice of the existence or creation or non-payment of all or any of the Obligations other than notices expressly provided for in this Agreement; (iii) presentment, demand, notice of dishonor, protest, and all other notices whatsoever other than notices expressly provided for in this Agreement; and (iv) all diligence in collection or protection of or realization upon the Obligations or any part thereof, any obligation hereunder, or any security for or guaranty of any of the foregoing.

(d)The guarantee of the Guarantor hereunder is a guarantee of payment and not of collection, and no setoff, counterclaim, reduction or diminution of any Obligation, or any defense of any kind or nature, except for payment in full, which the Guarantor has or may have against the Agent shall be available hereunder to the Guarantor against the Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

the Guarantor hereby waives: (i) any right to require the Agent as a condition of payment or performance by the Guarantor, (A) to proceed against the Borrower or any other Person, or (B) to resort to any other security or to pursue any other remedy in the power of the Agent whatsoever; (ii) any defense arising by reason of the incapacity, lack of authority or any disability or other defense of the Guarantor including, without limitation, any defense based on or arising out of the lack of validity or the unenforceability of the Loan Documents or any Notes or any part thereof or by reason of the cessation of the liability of the Borrower from any cause other than payment in full; (iii) any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal; (iv) any defense based upon modification of the Loan Documents in any form whatsoever; (v) any defense based upon any right to deferral or modification of any of the Borrower’s obligations by reason of any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium or other debtor relief proceeding; (vi) (A) any principles or provisions of law, statutory or otherwise, which are or might be in conflict with the terms of this Agreement and any legal or equitable discharge of the Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, (B) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting the Guarantor’s liability hereunder or the enforcement hereof, (C) any rights to setoffs, recoupments and counterclaims, and (D) promptness, diligence and any requirement that the Agent protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or lien of any property subject thereto; (vii) any defense based on adequacy of consideration received for the guarantees contained in this Agreement; and (viii) to the fullest extent permitted by law, any defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by law which limit the liability of or exonerate guarantors or sureties, or which may conflict with the terms of this Agreement.
