(k) Borrowers shall have paid all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of Agent (including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel (including each local counsel) for Agent) to the extent that the Borrower has received an invoice therefor at least two Business Days prior to the Effective Date (without prejudice to any post-closing settlement of such fees, costs and expenses to the extent not so invoiced);

(l) Agent shall have received a Borrowing Base Certificate calculated as of the last day of the month immediately preceding the Effective Date and giving pro forma effect to the Refinery Asset Borrowing Base Component;

(p) Agent shall have received such documentation and other information as has been reasonably requested by Agent in connection with this Amendment and the transactions contemplated hereby.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if each of the foregoing conditions precedent (other than solely with respect to the Refinery Pipeline Easement Mortgage and the conditions precedent set forth in the immediately preceding clauses (a)(ii), (d), (e), (g), (h), (i), (k) and (o) solely related thereto (the “Pipeline Easement Conditions”)) are satisfied, then (x) this Amendment shall nonetheless become effective on such date, (y) the satisfaction of the Pipeline Easement Conditions shall be extended for a period of 30 days (or such longer period as Agent may otherwise agree in its sole discretion) following the Effective Date, (the “Waiver Deadline”); provided however, that the Waiver Deadline shall not extend beyond November 30, 2019 and (z) if the Pipeline Easement Conditions are not satisfied on or prior to the Waiver Deadline, then on the Waiver Deadline, the Obligors shall repay the Effective Date Loan, plus accrued and unpaid interest, the failure to pay of which shall be deemed an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement.

Without limiting the generality of the provisions of Section 11.3 of the Credit Agreement, for purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in this Section 2, each Lender that has signed this Amendment shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender unless Agent shall have received notice from such Lender prior to the Effective Date specifying its objection thereto.

If Agent or Lenders fund the Effective Date Loan when any conditions precedent are not satisfied (regardless of whether the lack of satisfaction was known or unknown at the time), it shall not operate as a waiver of (x) the right of Agent and Lenders to insist upon satisfaction of all conditions precedent with respect to any subsequent funding, issuance of any Letters of Credit or grant of any other accommodation; nor (y) any Default or Event of Default due to such failure of conditions or otherwise.

3. Representations and Warranties. In order to induce Agent and Lenders to enter into this Amendment, each of the Obligors represents and warrants to Agent and Lenders as follows:

(a) all representations and warranties relating to such Obligor contained in the Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document are true and correct as of the date hereof as if made again on and as of the date hereof (except to the extent that such representations and warranties were expressly limited to another specific date, in which case they are true and correct as of such specific date);

(b) both immediately prior and immediately after giving effect to this Amendment, no Default or Event of Default exists;

(c) such Obligor has all requisite corporate or other organizational power and authority (as applicable) to execute and deliver this Amendment, the Refinery Related Security Agreement and the Refinery Mortgage;

(d) the execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment, the Refinery Related Security Agreement and the Refinery Mortgage by such Obligor and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other organizational action, do not require the approval, consent, exemption, authorization or other action by, or notice to or filing with, any Governmental Authority or any other Person in order to be effective and enforceable, and do not and will not violate or result in any breach or contravention of any Senior Notes Indenture or other material Contractual Obligation to which such Obligor is a party or subject, any Organization Document of such Obligor or any Applicable Law;

(e) this Amendment has been duly executed and delivered on behalf of each Borrower party hereto; and

(f) this Amendment constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Borrower party hereto, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms except as enforceability may be limited by applicable Insolvency Proceeding and by general equitable principles (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at law).

4. Reaffirmation. By its execution hereof, each Obligor expressly (a) consents to the amendments and modifications to the Credit Agreement effected hereby, (b) confirms and agrees that, notwithstanding the effectiveness of this Amendment, each Credit Document to which it is a party is, and the obligations of such Obligor contained in the Credit Agreement, if any, or in any other Credit Documents to which it is a party (in each case, as amended and modified by this Amendment), are and shall continue to be, in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects, (c) affirms that each of the Liens and security interests granted by such Obligor in or pursuant to the Credit Documents are valid and subsisting and (d) agrees that this Amendment shall in no manner impair or otherwise adversely affect any of the Liens and security interests granted in or pursuant to the Credit Documents.

5. Entire Agreement. This Amendment, the Credit Agreement (including giving effect to the amendment set forth in Section 1 above), and the other Credit Documents (collectively, the “Relevant Documents”), set forth the entire understanding and agreement of the parties hereto in relation to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any prior negotiations and agreements among the parties relating to such subject matter. No promise, condition, representation or warranty, express or implied, not set forth in the Relevant Documents shall bind any party hereto, and no such party has relied on any such promise, condition, representation or warranty. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that, except as otherwise expressly stated in the Relevant Documents, no representations, warranties or commitments, express or implied, have been made by any party to any other party in relation to the subject matter hereof or thereof. None of the terms or conditions of this Amendment may be changed, modified, waived or canceled orally or otherwise, except in writing and in accordance with Section 13.1 of the Credit Agreement.

6. Full Force and Effect of Credit Agreement. This Amendment is a Credit Document. Except as expressly modified hereby, all terms and provisions of the Credit Agreement and all other Credit Documents remain in full force and effect and nothing contained in this Amendment shall in any way impair the validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement or the Credit Documents, or alter, waive, annul, vary, affect, or impair any provisions, conditions, or covenants contained therein or any rights, powers, or remedies granted therein.

7. Consent Fee. The Borrowers agree that the Consent Fee shall not be refundable under any circumstances, shall be paid in immediately available funds and shall not be subject to reduction by way of set-off or counterclaim.

8. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of a signature page of this Amendment by telecopy or other electronic means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of such agreement. Any electronic signature, contract formation on an electronic platform and electronic record-keeping shall have the same legal validity and enforceability as a manually executed signature or use of a paper-based recordkeeping system to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any similar state law based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

9. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. THIS AMENDMENT AND ANY CLAIMS, CONTROVERSY, DISPUTE OR CAUSE OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE) BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AMENDMENT AND THE

TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. Sections 13.13, 13.14 and 13.15 of the Credit Agreement are hereby incorporated herein by this reference.

10. Severability. If any provision of this Amendment is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Amendment and the other Credit Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with legal, valid and enforceable provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

11. References. All references to the “Credit Agreement” in the Credit Documents shall mean the Credit Agreement giving effect to the amendments contained in this Amendment.

12. Successors and Assigns. This Amendment shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Obligors, Agent and Secured Parties and their respective successors and assigns, except that (a) no Obligor shall have the right to assign its rights or delegate its obligations under any Credit Documents, and (b) any assignment by a Lender must be made in compliance with Section 12.3 of the Credit Agreement.

Loans (other than Incremental Revolver Loans and FILO Loans) shall be increased concurrently with the funding of such Incremental Revolver Loan such that such Applicable Margin applicable to all such other Loans (other than Incremental Revolver Loans and FILO Loans) is equal to the Applicable Margin for such Incremental Revolver Loan minus 0.50%; and (b) with respect to any Incremental Revolver Loans, such margins (expressed as per annum rates) as shall be agreed to by Borrower Agent and the applicable Lenders providing such Incremental Revolver Loans pursuant to Section 2.2.

component of any Synthetic Lease Obligations shall be made by the applicable Obligor or Restricted Subsidiary in accordance with accepted financial practice and consistent with the terms of such Synthetic Lease Obligations.

1.2.2. Changes in GAAP. Other than as expressly set forth herein, if at any time any change in GAAP would affect the computation of any financial ratio or requirement set forth in any Credit Document, and either Borrower Agent or Required Lenders shall so request, Agent, Lenders and Obligors 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 approval of Required Lenders); provided that, until so amended, (a) such ratio or requirement shall continue to be computed in accordance with GAAP prior to such change therein and (b) Borrower Agent shall provide to Agent financial statements and other documents required under this Agreement or as reasonably requested by Agent hereunder setting forth a reconciliation between calculations of such ratio or requirement made before and after giving effect to such change in GAAP. Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, all items of an accounting or financial nature used herein shall be construed, and all computations of amounts and ratios referred to herein shall be made, without giving effect to any change in GAAP occurring after the Closing Date as a result of the adoption of any proposals set forth in the proposed Accounting Standards Update, Leases (Topic 842): a revision of the 2010 proposed Accounting Standards Update, Leases (Topic 840), issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board on May 16, 2013, or any other proposals issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board in connection therewith, in each case if and to the extent any such change would require treating any lease (or similar arrangement conveying the right to use) as a Capital Lease where such lease (or similar arrangement) was not required to be so treated under GAAP as in effect on the Closing Date.

The terms "herein", "hereof", "hereunder" and other words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular section, paragraph or subdivision.

The term "or" shall not be exclusive. The terms "including", "includes" and "include" shall mean "including, without limitation" and, for purposes of each Credit Document, the parties agree that the rule of ejusdem generis shall not be applicable to limit any provision. All references to "day", "week" or "month" shall be references to a calendar day, week or month unless otherwise stated. Section titles appear as a matter of convenience only and shall not affect the interpretation of any Credit Document. Unless otherwise expressly stated or qualified herein, all references to (a) laws or statutes include all related rules, regulations, interpretations, amendments and successor provisions; (b) any document, instrument or agreement include any amendments, waivers, supplements and other modifications, extensions or renewals from time to time (to the extent permitted by the Credit Documents); (c) any section mean, unless the context otherwise requires, a section of this Agreement; (d) any exhibits or schedules mean, unless the context otherwise requires, exhibits and schedules attached hereto, which are hereby incorporated herein by reference; (e) any Person include successors and permitted assigns of such Person; (f) time of day mean Eastern time; or (g) the discretion of Agent, Issuing Bank or any Lender mean the sole and absolute discretion of such Person. All calculations of or references to Value, Aggregate Borrowing Base, FILO Borrowing Base and Revolving Borrowing Base components, Loans, Letters of Credit, Obligations and other amounts shall be denominated in Dollars unless expressly provided otherwise and, unless the context otherwise requires, all determinations (including calculations of the Aggregate Borrowing Base, FILO Borrowing Base and Revolving Borrowing Base and financial covenants) made from time to time under the Credit Documents shall be made in light of the circumstances existing at such time. Aggregate Borrowing Base, FILO Borrowing Base and Revolving Borrowing Base calculations shall be made in a manner satisfactory to Agent in its Permitted Discretion (and not necessarily in accordance with GAAP). Obligors shall have the burden of establishing any alleged negligence, misconduct or lack of good faith by Agent, Issuing Bank or any Lender

under any Credit Documents. No provision of any Credit Documents shall be construed against any party by reason of such party having, or being deemed to have, drafted the provision.

1.5. Currency Equivalents.

1.5.1. Calculations. All references in the Credit Documents to Loans, Letters of Credit, Obligations, Aggregate Borrowing Base, FILO Borrowing Base and Revolving Borrowing Base components and other amounts shall be denominated in Dollars, unless expressly provided otherwise. Subject to the immediately succeeding sentence, the Dollar Equivalent Amount of any amounts denominated or reported under a Credit Document in a currency other than Dollars may be determined by Agent on a daily basis, based on the current Spot Rate for the purchase of Dollars with such currency. Borrowers shall report Value and other Aggregate Borrowing Base, FILO Borrowing Base and Revolving Borrowing Base components to Agent in the currency invoiced by Borrowers or shown in Borrowers' financial records, with the Dollar Equivalent Amount of any amounts denominated or reported under a Credit Document in a currency other than Dollars determined by Agent based upon the Spot Rate for the purchase of Dollars with such currency (provided that Agent may, from time to time in its discretion, defer to Borrower Agent in the making of such determination (and Borrower Agent may so assume unless and until Agent has made such determination), in which case the same shall be determined by Borrower Agent based on a reputable publisher, reasonably acceptable to Agent, of currency exchange rates) and, unless expressly provided otherwise, shall deliver financial statements and calculate financial covenants in Dollars. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any Obligation is funded and expressly denominated in a currency other than Dollars, Borrowers shall repay such Obligation in such other currency.

1.5.2. Judgments. If, for purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum from the currency provided under a Credit Document ("Agreement Currency") into another currency, the Spot Rate shall be used as the rate of exchange. Notwithstanding any judgment in a currency ("Judgment Currency") other than the Agreement Currency, a Borrower shall discharge its obligation in respect of any sum due under a Credit Document only if, on the Business Day following receipt by Agent of payment in the Judgment Currency, Agent can use the amount paid to purchase the sum originally due in the Agreement Currency. If the purchased amount is less than the sum originally due, such Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify Agent and Lenders against such loss. If the purchased amount is greater than the sum originally due, Agent shall promptly return the excess amount to such Borrower (or to the Person legally entitled thereto).

1.6. Additional Alternate Currencies. Subject to the approval of Agent, Borrower Agent may from time to time request that an Alternate Swingline Loan be made in a currency other than Dollars provided,

that such requested currency is a lawful currency (other than Dollars) that is readily available and freely transferable and convertible into Dollars. Any such request shall be made to Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., five (5) Business Days prior to the date of the desired Borrowing (or such other time or date as may be agreed by Borrower Agent and Agent). If Agent consents to making Alternate Swingline Loans in such requested currency, Agent shall so notify Borrower Agent of such consent, therein designating the applicable reference rate for such currency, and any other procedures, terms (including pricing and interest rate determination mechanics) or conditions applicable to Borrowings of Alternate Swingline Loans in such currency, and such currency shall thereupon be deemed for all purposes to be an Alternate Currency for Alternate Swingline Loans. Agent in its sole discretion may approve or decline any such request without prior notice. No such requested currency shall be an Alternate Currency unless and until Agent notifies of Borrower Agent of Agent's approval thereof as provided herein.

1.7. Outstanding Obligations under Existing Loan Agreement. Borrowers, each Guarantor, Agent and the Lenders acknowledge and agree that under the Existing Credit Agreement, the aggregate principal balance of all “Revolver Loans” (as defined in the Existing Loan Agreement) immediately prior to the Closing Date (the “Existing Principal Obligations”) is $0. Borrowers and each Guarantor acknowledge and agree that all “Obligations” (as defined in the Existing Loan Agreement) outstanding immediately prior to the Closing Date (including all Existing Principal Obligations) (collectively, the “Existing Obligations”) constitute valid and binding obligations of Borrowers and Guarantors without offset, counterclaim, defense or recoupment of any kind. Borrowers, each Guarantor, Agent and Lenders hereby acknowledge and agree that, on the Closing Date, the following transactions shall be deemed to occur automatically, without further action by any party hereto: (a) the Existing Credit Agreement shall be amended and restated in its entirety in the form of this Agreement, (b) all Existing Obligations which remain unpaid and outstanding as of the Closing Date shall be in all respects continuing and remain outstanding and payable under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, with only the terms being modified from and after the Closing Date as provided in this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, (c) the Credit Documents, including the Liens and security interests created thereunder in favor of Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, as security for the Existing Obligations, as reaffirmed, amended or amended and restated on the Closing Date, and the guarantees of the Existing Obligations, as reaffirmed, amended or amended and restated on the Closing Date, as the case may be, are in all respects continuing and shall remain in full force and effect with respect to all Obligations hereunder and are hereby reaffirmed, (d) notwithstanding anything in Section 2.3 to the contrary, all outstanding “Letters of Credit” under and as defined in the Existing Loan Agreement will constitute Letters of Credit under this Agreement and (e) all references in the Credit Documents (other than this Agreement and any Loan Document amended and restated on the Closing.

1.8. Interest Rates. The Agent does not warrant, nor accept responsibility for, nor shall the Agent have any liability with respect to the administration, submission or any other matter related to the rates in the definition of “LIBOR” or with respect to any rate that is an alternative or replacement for or successor to any of such rate (including, without limitation, any LIBOR Successor Rate) or the effect of any of the foregoing, or of any LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes.

1.9. Divisions. For all purposes under the Credit Documents, in connection with any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right, obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized on the first date of its existence by the holders of its Equity Interests at such time.

SECTION 2. CREDIT FACILITIES

2.1. Commitments.

2.1.1. Revolver Loans.

(a) The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that effective as of the Closing Date, to the extent the Existing Principal Obligations exceed the FILO Maximum Amount, the Existing Principal Obligations in the amount of such excess are hereby converted into Revolver Loans outstanding hereunder (the “Converted Revolver Loans”), without constituting a novation, and shall be allocated to each Revolver Lender with a Revolver Commitment such that after giving effect to such allocation, the amount of Revolver Loans held by each Revolver Lender is equal to such Revolver Lender’s Pro Rata share of the Converted Revolver Loans. To the extent such allocation results in losses or expenses to any Lender as a result of the prepayment of any LIBOR Loan on a date other than the scheduled last day of the applicable Interest Period, Borrowers shall be responsible for such loss or expense pursuant to Section 3.8. Each Revolver Lender agrees, severally on a Pro Rata basis up to its Revolver Commitment, on the terms set forth herein, to make Revolver Loans to Borrowers from time to time through the Revolver Termination Date for the purposes set forth in Section 9.1.11; provided that (i) no Revolver Loan other than the Refinery Loan shall be made pursuant to this Section 2.1.1(a) at any time when the outstanding principal amount of the FILO Loans is less than the FILO Maximum Amount and (ii) the aggregate amount of Revolver Loans and LC Obligations shall not exceed the Revolver Commitments. The Revolver Loans may be repaid and reborrowed as provided herein. In no event shall Revolver Lenders have any obligation to honor a request for a Revolver Loan if (x) the sum of the unpaid balance of Revolver Loans outstanding at such time (including the requested Loan) would exceed an amount equal to the Borrowing Base or (y) the sum of the unpaid balance of Revolver Loans outstanding at such time (including the requested Loan) plus the unpaid balance of FILO Loans outstanding at such time would exceed the Aggregate Borrowing Base.

(b) The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that effective as of the Closing Date, the Existing Principal Obligations in an amount up to the FILO Maximum Amount are hereby converted into FILO Loans outstanding hereunder (the “Converted FILO Loans”), without constituting a novation, and are allocated to each FILO Lender with a FILO Commitment such that after giving effect to such allocation, the amount of FILO Loans held by each FILO Lender is equal to such FILO Lender’s Pro Rata share of the Converted FILO Loans. To the extent such allocation results in losses or expenses to any Lender as a result of the prepayment of any LIBOR Loan on a date other than the scheduled last day of the applicable Interest Period, Borrowers shall be responsible for such loss or expense pursuant to Section 3.8. Each FILO Lender agrees, severally on a Pro Rata basis up to its FILO Commitment, on the terms set forth herein, to make FILO Loans to Borrowers from time to time through the FILO Termination Date; provided that the aggregate amount of FILO Loans shall not exceed the FILO Commitments. The FILO Loans may be repaid and reborrowed as provided herein; provided that prior to repaying any FILO Loan, all outstanding Revolver Loans shall have been repaid in full. In no event shall FILO Lenders have any obligation to honor a request for a FILO Loan if the sum of the unpaid balance of FILO Loans outstanding at such time (including the requested Loan) plus the unpaid balance of Revolver Loans outstanding at such time would exceed the Aggregate Borrowing Base.

(c) On each of November 30, 2019, February 28, 2020, May 31, 2020 and August 31, 2020, (i) (A) the FILO Commitments shall decrease by $6,250,000 and (B) each Lender’s FILO Commitment shall decrease by its Pro Rata share of, $6,250,000 and (ii) (A)

the Revolver Commitments shall increase on a dollar-for-dollar basis by the amount of the decrease in the FILO Commitments on such date and (B) the Revolver Commitment of each Lender that has a FILO Commitment shall increase on a dollar-for-dollar basis by the amount of the decrease in its FILO Commitment on such date.

2.1.2. Notes. The Loans made by each Lender and interest accruing thereon shall be evidenced by the records of Agent and such Lender. At the request of a Revolving Lender, Borrowers shall deliver a Revolver Note to such Lender. At the request of any FILO Lender, Borrowers shall deliver a FILO Note to such Lender.

2.1.3. Voluntary Reduction or Termination of Revolver Commitments.

(a) The Revolver Commitments shall terminate on the Revolver Termination Date, unless sooner terminated in accordance with this Agreement. The FILO Commitments shall terminate on the FILO Termination Date, unless sooner terminated in accordance with this Agreement. At any time and from time to time, Borrowers may, at their option, by written notice to Agent, terminate the Revolver Commitments, the FILO Commitments and this credit facility. If Borrowers revoke any notice of termination, they shall be responsible for the amounts, if any, payable pursuant to Section 3.8. On the Commitment Termination Date, Borrowers shall make Full Payment of all Obligations.

(b) Borrowers may permanently reduce the Revolver Commitments or FILO Commitments, on a Pro Rata basis for each Lender, from time to time upon written notice to Agent, which notice shall specify the type of commitment being reduced, the amount of the reduction, and shall be given at least five Business Days prior to the date of reduction. Each reduction shall be in a minimum amount of $10,000,000 or an increment of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any such reduction of Revolver Commitments and FILO Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.1.3(b) shall not affect Borrowers' ability to increase the Revolver Commitments pursuant to Section 2.2.

2.1.4. Overadvances. If the Facility Usage exceeds the Aggregate Borrowing Base ("Overadvance") at any time, the excess amount shall be payable by Borrowers on demand by Agent, but all such Revolver Loans, FILO Loans and LC Obligations shall nevertheless constitute Obligations secured by the Collateral and entitled to all benefits of the Credit Documents. Any payments received by Agent with respect to an Overadvance shall be applied first to all outstanding Revolver Loans and then to all outstanding FILO Loans. Unless its authority to make Overadvances is revoked in writing by Required Lenders, Agent may require FILO Lenders and, if the outstanding principal amount of FILO Loans is not less than the FILO Maximum Amount, Revolver Lenders to honor requests for Overadvance Loans and to forbear from requiring Borrowers to cure an Overadvance, (a) when no Event of Default other than an Event of Default created by the existence of an Overadvance is known to Agent, provided that (i) no Overadvance may continue for more than 30 consecutive days and no additional Overadvance Loans may be required for at least five consecutive days following the termination of the preceding Overadvance, and (ii) the Overadvance is not known by Agent to exceed an amount equal to 5% of the Aggregate Borrowing Base; and (b) regardless of whether an Event of Default exists, if Agent discovers an Overadvance not previously known by it to exist, as long as from the date of such discovery the Overadvance (i) is not increased by more than an amount equal to 2.5% of the Aggregate Borrowing Base (provided that the aggregate amount of all Overadvances shall not exceed an amount equal to 7.5% of the Aggregate Borrowing Base), and (ii) does not continue for more than 30 consecutive days. In no event shall an Overadvance be required that would cause (i) the outstanding Revolver Loans and LC Obligations of any Revolver Lender to exceed its Revolver Commitment, (ii) the outstanding FILO Loans of any FILO Lender

to exceed its FILO Commitment or (iii) the outstanding Revolver Loans, FILO Loans and LC Obligations to exceed the aggregate Commitments. Any funding of an Overadvance Loan or sufferance of an Overadvance shall not constitute a waiver by Agent or Lenders of the Event of Default caused thereby. In no event shall any Borrower or other Obligor be deemed a beneficiary of this Section nor authorized to enforce any of its terms.

2.1.5. Protective Advances. Agent shall be authorized, in its discretion, at any time that a Default or Event of Default exists or any conditions in Section 6 are not satisfied, to make Base Rate Revolver Loans or Base Rate FILO Loans ("Protective Advances") (a) up to an aggregate amount outstanding at any time, together with the amount of any outstanding Overadvances, equal to the greater of (i) $60,000,000 or (ii) 10% of the Aggregate Borrowing Base, if Agent deems such Loans necessary or desirable to preserve or protect any Collateral, or to enhance the collectability or repayment of Obligations; or (b) to pay other Obligations under any Credit Document; provided that such Protective Advances shall be Revolver Loans unless the outstanding principal amount of FILO Loans is less than the FILO Maximum Amount, in which case up to an amount equal to the FILO Maximum Amount minus the outstanding principal amount of FILO Loans of such Protective Advances shall be FILO Loans, and the remaining amount of such Protective Advances shall be Revolver Loans. In no event shall Protective Advances cause (i) the outstanding Revolver Loans and LC Obligations of any Lender to exceed its Revolver Commitment, (ii) the outstanding FILO Loans of any Lender to exceed its FILO Commitment or (iii) the outstanding Loans and LC Obligations to exceed the aggregate Commitments. All Protective Advances shall be Obligations, secured by the Collateral, and shall be treated for all purposes as Extraordinary Expenses. Each Revolver Lender or FILO Lender, as applicable, shall participate in each Protective Advance on a Pro Rata basis. Required Lenders may at any time revoke Agent's authorization to make further Protective Advances under clause (a) by written notice to Agent. Absent such revocation, Agent's determination that funding of a Protective Advance is appropriate shall be conclusive.

2.1.6. Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facilities. Borrower Agent may request in writing at any time the establishment of an additional asset-based revolving loan facility hereunder (each a “Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility”, the commitments of the Lenders thereunder, the “Foreign Subsidiary Revolver Commitments” and the loans thereunder, “Foreign Subsidiary Revolver Loans”) or the increase of a then existing Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility, in each case in a minimum amount of $10,000,000, or an increment of $10,000,000 in excess thereof; provided that, in each case, (i) the aggregate principal amount of Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility established pursuant to this Section 2.1.6 shall not exceed the lesser of (x) $50,000,000 and (y) an amount equal to $500,000,000 minus the aggregate principal amount of increases in Revolver Commitments made pursuant to Section 2.2.1; (ii) the borrowers under such Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility (the “Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers”) shall be Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries of the Borrower that are organized under the laws of Canada (or, in each case, any state, province or territory thereof, as applicable); (iii) the borrowing base established for such Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility (including the definitions and components thereof) will be reasonably acceptable to the Agent; (iv) the Agent and Foreign Subsidiary Lenders providing the Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility will have received on or prior to the effectiveness of the Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility customary field examinations and appraisals, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent and such Foreign Subsidiary Lenders, of the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers’ assets that will be included in the borrowing base for the Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility; (v) the advance rates with respect to the collateral of the Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers (the “Foreign Subsidiary Collateral”) under the Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility shall be no higher than the advance rates applicable to the Revolver Loans; (vi) the Foreign Subsidiary Lenders that provide the Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility shall benefit from a first-priority perfected security interest in the Foreign Subsidiary Collateral for the Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility;

it being agreed that no Lender (other than a Foreign Subsidiary Lender in its capacity as such) will benefit from any security interest in the Foreign Subsidiary Collateral); (vii) the Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility may benefit from a guaranty from the Borrower and the Guarantors which guaranty may be secured by the Collateral securing the Obligations of the Secured Parties (other than any Foreign Subsidiary Lender or New Foreign Subsidiary Lender), and the provisions of Section 5.5.2 shall be deemed modified to provide that payments on any such guaranty or with the proceeds of such Collateral shall be applied to repay the Foreign Subsidiary Revolver Loans under such Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility directly after the application thereof to repayment of principal and interest on all Revolver Loans and FILO Loans, and each Lender (including each Foreign Subsidiary Lender) shall enter into a customary loss sharing agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Agent and the Required Lenders; (viii) the maturity date of the Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility will be the Revolver Termination Date; (ix) each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall have appointed a process agent that is a Person incorporated or organized under the laws of the United States of America, any state thereof or in the District of Columbia; (x) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or shall occur as a result of such establishment or increase in the Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility, as applicable; (xi) prior to the date of such establishment or increase, each Lender shall have received written notice from Agent of the aggregate principal amount of the requested Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility or increase thereto, as applicable; (xii) Borrower Agent shall, and shall cause its applicable Subsidiaries (including any applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers) to, execute and deliver such documents and instruments and take such other actions as may be reasonably requested by Agent in connection with such establishment or increase, as applicable, and (xiii) such establishment or increase, as applicable, of the Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility shall be subject to successful syndication thereof. Any request under this Section 2.1.6 shall be submitted by Borrower Agent to Agent (and Agent shall forward copies to Lenders), specify the proposed effective date and the amount of the requested Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility or increase thereto, as applicable, and be accompanied by an officer’s certificate of Borrower Agent stating that no Default or Event of Default exists or will occur as a result of such establishment or increase(s), as applicable. Borrower Agent may also specify any fees offered to those Lenders (the “Foreign Subsidiary Lenders”) that agree to provide the Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility or increases thereto, as applicable, which fees may be variable based upon the amount by which any such Lender is willing to increase the principal amount of its Foreign Subsidiary Revolver Commitments and/or provide a new Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility, as applicable. No Lender shall have any obligation, express or implied, to offer to provide any Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility or to increase its existing Foreign Subsidiary Revolver Commitments. Only the consent of each Foreign Subsidiary Lender and Agent shall be required for the establishment of a Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility and/or increase in the aggregate principal amount of the Foreign Subsidiary Revolver Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.1.6. No Lender that elects not to increase the principal amount of its Foreign Subsidiary Revolver Commitment may be replaced in respect of its existing Foreign Subsidiary Revolver Commitment as a result thereof without such Lender’s consent.

Each Foreign Subsidiary Lender that desires to participate in the Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility and/or increase its Foreign Subsidiary Revolver Commitment (each a “Foreign Subsidiary Responding Lender”), shall as soon as practicable specify the amount of each such proposed Foreign Subsidiary Revolver Commitment or increase thereto, as applicable, which it is willing to assume. If the total amount that Foreign Subsidiary Responding Lenders are willing to provide and/or increase, as applicable, their Foreign Subsidiary Revolver Commitments exceeds the amount of the requested Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility or increase of Foreign Subsidiary Revolver Commitments, as applicable, Borrower Agent shall determine the final allocation thereof; provided that, the amount of or increase in any Foreign Subsidiary Lender’s Foreign Subsidiary Revolver Commitment shall not exceed the amount of such Foreign Subsidiary Revolver Commitment or increase thereto

proposed by such Foreign Subsidiary Lender. If the total amount that the Foreign Subsidiary Responding Lenders are willing to provide and/or increase their Foreign Subsidiary Revolver Commitments, as applicable, is less than the amount of the proposed Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility or increase of the Foreign Subsidiary Revolver Commitments, as applicable, in either case Borrower may designate new lenders who qualify as Eligible Assignees and who are reasonably acceptable to Agent as additional Foreign Subsidiary Lenders, as applicable, hereunder in accordance with this Section 2.1.6 (each such new lender being a “New Foreign Subsidiary Lender”), which New Foreign Subsidiary Lender may assume all or a portion of the requested Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility or increase in the aggregate principal amount of the Foreign Subsidiary Revolver Commitments, as applicable.

Each New Foreign Subsidiary Lender designated by Borrower Agent and reasonably acceptable to Agent shall become an additional party hereto as a New Foreign Subsidiary Lender concurrently with the effectiveness of the proposed Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility or increase in the aggregate principal amount of the Foreign Subsidiary Revolver Commitments, as applicable, upon its execution of a joinder agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent.

Subject to the foregoing, the Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility or increase of Foreign Subsidiary Revolver Commitments requested by Borrower Agent shall be effective as of the date proposed by Borrower Agent and agreed to by Agent and shall be in the principal amount equal to (i) the principal amount which Foreign Subsidiary Lenders are willing to assume as the new Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility and/or increases to the principal amount of their Foreign Subsidiary Revolver Commitment, as applicable, plus (ii) the principal amount offered by New Foreign Subsidiary Lenders. To the extent that adjustments to the aggregate Foreign Subsidiary Revolver Commitments result in loss or expenses to any Foreign Subsidiary Lender as a result of the prepayment of any LIBOR Loan on a date other than the scheduled last day of the applicable Interest Period, the Borrowers shall be responsible for such loss or expense pursuant to Section 3.8.

Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of the Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility, this Agreement shall be amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence of the Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility and the Foreign Subsidiary Revolving Loans evidenced thereby, and Agent and the Borrowers may, without the consent of the other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and enter into any new Credit Documents, in each case as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of Agent and Borrower Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.1.6 (including (A) any amendments to Section 5.5), but which reflect the junior payment priority of the Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility with respect to the proceeds of the Collateral to the extent the Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility is not secured by Liens on the Collateral that rank pari passu with the Liens securing the Obligations of the Secured Parties (other than the Foreign Subsidiary Lenders in their capacities as such), (B) any amendments to this Agreement to reflect the ability for the Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility to be advanced and repaid in a currency other than Dollars, and (C) entering into any additional Collateral Documents with respect to the Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility and any guarantees provided by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries with respect thereto). For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 2.1.6 shall supersede any provisions in Section 13.1.1. From and after the effective date of the Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility and/or Foreign Subsidiary Revolver Commitment increase, the Foreign Subsidiary Revolver Loans and Foreign Subsidiary Revolver Commitments established pursuant to this Section 2.1.6 shall constitute Foreign Subsidiary Revolver Loans and Foreign Subsidiary Revolver Commitments under, and shall be entitled to all the benefits afforded by, this Agreement and the other Credit Documents.

Following the effective date of the Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility and/or increase to the Foreign Subsidiary Revolver Commitments, Agent shall deliver to Borrower Agent a schedule to the Agreement reflecting the Foreign Subsidiary Incremental Facility and/or increases to the aggregate Foreign Subsidiary Revolver Commitments.

2.2. Incremental Availability; Commitments.

2.2.1. Request for Increase. Borrowers shall have the right, at any time and from time to time prior to the Revolver Termination Date but on not more than four occasions and in minimum increments of $50,000,000 per occasion, to request an increase in the Revolver Commitments hereunder and incur additional Indebtedness under this Agreement (the "Incremental Revolver Facility"; such Indebtedness, the "Incremental Revolver Loans") by an aggregate principal amount of up to $500,000,000 less the aggregate principal amount of all Foreign Subsidiary Revolver Commitments which have been provided pursuant to Section 2.1.6; provided that no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of, or after giving effect to, such increase. At the time of sending such notice, Borrower Agent (in consultation with Agent) shall specify the time period within which each Lender is requested to respond and the proposed Applicable Margins (or range of proposed Applicable Margins) acceptable to Borrowers to be applicable to the requested Incremental Revolver Loans.

2.2.2. Lender Elections to Increase. Each Lender shall notify Agent within such time period whether or not it agrees to increase its Revolver Commitment and, if so, the amount of the increase to which it agrees. Any Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Revolver Commitment.

2.2.3. Notification by Administrative Agent; Additional Lenders. Agent shall notify Borrower Agent and each Lender of the Lenders' responses to each request made hereunder. Borrowers may also invite additional Persons described in clause (b) of the definition of "Eligible Assignees" to become Lenders pursuant to a joinder agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent.

2.2.4. Effective Date and Allocations. If the Revolver Commitments are increased in accordance with this Section 2.2, Agent and Borrower Agent shall determine the effective date (the "Increase Effective Date") and the final allocation of such increase. Agent shall promptly notify Borrower Agent and Lenders of the final allocation of such increase and the Increase Effective Date.

2.2.5. Conditions to Effectiveness of Increase. As a condition precedent to such increase, Borrower Agent shall deliver to Agent (a) if so requested by Agent, a legal opinion in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent and (b) a certificate of each Obligor dated as of the Increase Effective Date signed by a Secretary or Assistant Secretary of such Obligor certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Obligor approving or consenting to such increase, and a certificate of a Senior Officer certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase, (i) the representations and warranties of each Obligor contained in Section 8 and the other Credit Documents are true and correct on and as of the Increase Effective Date (except for representations and warranties that expressly relate only to an earlier date, which shall be true and correct on such date) and (ii) no Default or Event of Default has then occurred and is continuing. Borrowers shall prepay any Loans and Overadvance Loans outstanding on the Increase Effective Date (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.8) to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Loans and Overadvance Loans ratable with any revised Pro Rata shares arising from any nonratable increase in the Revolving Commitments under this Section 2.2.

2.2.6. Pricing. Any Incremental Revolver Loans shall have the same terms (including, but not limited to, maturity date, voting rights and rights to receive the proceeds of prepayments but excluding the Applicable Margins for interest rates applicable thereto) as the existing Revolver Loans and shall be considered Revolver Loans hereunder. The Applicable Margins for the interest rates applicable to the Incremental Revolver Loans shall be as set forth in the request therefor (or those as are indicated in such request to be acceptable to Borrowers) provided pursuant to Section 2.2.1 and as agreed to by the Lenders who agree to provide such Incremental Revolver Loans in accordance with Section 2.2.2 or Section 2.2.3, provided that all Incremental Revolver Loans to be provided pursuant to each request for Incremental Revolver Loans shall have the same Applicable Margins for the interest rates applicable thereto.

2.2.7. Amendments. Agent is authorized to enter into, on behalf of Lenders, any amendment to this Agreement or any other document as may be necessary to incorporate the terms of any new Incremental Revolver Facility therein.

2.2.8. Conflicting Provisions. This Section 2.2 shall supersede any provisions in Section 11.5 or Section 13.1 to the contrary.

2.3. Letter of Credit Facility.

2.3.1. Issuance of Letters of Credit. Each Issuing Bank agrees to issue, amend and renew Letters of Credit from time to time until five Business Days prior to the Revolver Termination Date (or until the Commitment Termination Date, if earlier), on the terms set forth herein, including the following:

(a) Each Borrower acknowledges that each Issuing Bank's willingness to issue any Letter of Credit is conditioned upon such Issuing Bank's receipt of an LC Application with respect to the requested Letter of Credit, as well as such other instruments and agreements as such Issuing Bank may customarily require for issuance of a letter of credit of similar type and amount. No Issuing Bank shall have any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit unless (i) such Issuing Bank receives a LC Application at least three Business Days prior to the requested date of issuance; (ii) each LC Condition is satisfied, and (iii) if a Defaulting Lender exists, such Lender or Borrowers have entered into arrangements satisfactory to Agent and each Issuing Bank to eliminate any Fronting Exposure associated with such Lender. If any Issuing Bank receives written notice from Required Lenders at least one Business Day before issuance of a Letter of Credit that any LC Condition has not been satisfied, such Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to issue the requested Letter of Credit (or any other Letter of Credit) until such notice is withdrawn in writing by that Lender or until Required Lenders have waived such condition in accordance with this Agreement (provided that this sentence shall not constitute a waiver of Borrowers' right to cause the issuance of a Letter of Credit in accordance with this Agreement if, in fact, all LC Conditions are satisfied in connection therewith). Prior to receipt of any such notice, such Issuing Bank shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any failure of LC Conditions.

(b) Letters of Credit may be requested by a Borrower only (i) to support obligations of such Borrower incurred in the Ordinary Course of Business; or (ii) for other lawful corporate purposes. The increase, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit shall be treated as the issuance of a new Letter of Credit, except that delivery of a new LC Application shall be required at the discretion of each Issuing Bank.

(c) Borrowers assume all risks (as between or among Borrowers, on the one hand, and Indemnitees on the other hand) of the acts, omissions or misuses of any Letter of

Credit by the beneficiary; provided that this foregoing assumption is not intended to and shall not preclude Borrowers' pursuit of any and all rights and remedies as it may have against any beneficiary at law or otherwise. In connection with issuance of any Letter of Credit, none of Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender shall be responsible for the existence, character, quality, quantity, condition, packing, value or delivery of any goods purported to be represented by any Documents; any differences or variation in the character, quality, quantity, condition, packing, value or delivery of any goods from that expressed in any Documents; the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any Documents or of any endorsements thereon; the time, place, manner or order in which shipment of goods is made; partial or incomplete shipment of, or failure to ship, any goods referred to in a Letter of Credit or Documents; any deviation from instructions, delay, default or fraud by any shipper or other Person in connection with any goods, shipment or delivery; any breach of contract between a shipper or vendor and a Borrower; errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex, telecopy, e-mail, telephone or otherwise; errors in interpretation of technical terms; the misapplication by a beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or the proceeds thereof; or any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of any Issuing Bank, Agent or any Lender, including any act or omission of a Governmental Authority. The rights and remedies of the Issuing Banks under the Credit Documents shall be cumulative. Each Issuing Bank shall be fully subrogated to the rights and remedies of each beneficiary whose claims against Borrowers are discharged with proceeds of any Letter of Credit.

(d) In connection with its administration of and enforcement of rights or remedies under any Letters of Credit or LC Documents, each Issuing Bank shall be entitled to act, and shall be fully protected in acting, upon any certification, notice or other communication in whatever form believed by such Issuing Bank, in good faith, to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by a proper Person. Each Issuing Bank may consult with and employ legal counsel, accountants and other experts to advise it concerning its obligations, rights and remedies, and shall be entitled to act upon, and shall be fully protected in any action taken in good faith reliance upon, any advice given by such experts. Each Issuing Bank may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact in connection with any matter relating to Letters of Credit or LC Documents, and shall not be liable for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected with reasonable care.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, with respect to any Issuing Bank which is other than the entity which is then acting as Agent hereunder, such Issuing Bank shall not issue, amend or renew any Letter of Credit, and no Lender shall be obligated to participate in any such Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.3.2 or otherwise, unless Agent shall have received a true and correct copy of the Letter of Credit as so issued, amended or renewed (as well as the LC Application and other LC Documents relating thereto if so requested by Agent) and such Issuing Bank shall have obtained confirmation from Agent that the issuance, amendment or renewal of such Letter of Credit is permitted under this Agreement. Agent shall respond in a reasonably prompt fashion to any such confirmation requested pursuant to this Section 2.3.1(e).

(f) All Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to have been issued pursuant to this Agreement and to be Letters of Credit issued and outstanding hereunder and, from and after the Closing Date, shall be subject to and governed by the terms and conditions hereof.

2.3.2. Reimbursement; Participations.

(a) If any Issuing Bank honors any request for payment under a Letter of Credit, Borrowers shall pay to such Issuing Bank, on the same day ("Reimbursement Date"), the amount paid by such Issuing Bank under such Letter of Credit, together with interest at the interest rate for Base Rate Revolver Loans from the Reimbursement Date until payment by Borrowers (no matter when such Issuing Bank shall give notice of such honor and the amount thereof to Borrower Agent); provided, however, that such Issuing Bank shall give notice of such honor and the amount thereof to Borrower Agent in accordance with such Issuing Bank's standard procedures and such payment by Borrowers shall not be due until the date on which such notice is given to Borrower Agent or, if such notice is given after 2:00 p.m., on the Business Day immediately succeeding such date on which such notice is given. The obligation of Borrowers to reimburse such Issuing Bank for any payment made under a Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional, irrevocable and joint and several, and shall be paid without regard to any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that Borrowers may have at any time against the beneficiary. If Borrowers fail to so reimburse such Issuing Bank in an amount equal to the amount of such payment made by such Issuing Bank (the "Unreimbursed Amount"), Borrowers shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of Base Rate Revolver Loans in an amount necessary to pay the Unreimbursed Amount and all interest accrued thereon and all other amounts due such Issuing Bank in respect of such Letter of Credit and each Lender agrees to fund its Pro Rata share of such Borrowing whether or not the Commitments have terminated, an Overadvance exists or is created thereby or the conditions in Section 6 are satisfied.

(b) Upon issuance of a Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased from such Issuing Bank, without recourse or warranty, an undivided Pro Rata interest and participation in all LC Obligations relating to the Letter of Credit outstanding from time to time. Each Issuing Bank is issuing Letters of Credit in reliance upon this participation. If any Issuing Bank makes any payment under a Letter of Credit and Borrowers do not reimburse such payment on the Reimbursement Date, Agent shall promptly notify Lenders and each Lender shall promptly (within one Business Day) and unconditionally pay to Agent, for the benefit of such Issuing Bank, such Lender's Pro Rata share of such payment. Upon request by a Lender, each Issuing Bank shall furnish copies of any Letters of Credit and LC Documents in its possession at such time.

(c) The obligation of each Lender to make payments to Agent for the account of each Issuing Bank in connection with such Issuing Bank's payment under a Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, not subject to any counterclaim, setoff, qualification or exception whatsoever, and shall be made in accordance with this Agreement under all circumstances, irrespective of any lack of validity or unenforceability of any Credit Documents; any draft, certificate or other document presented under a Letter of Credit having been determined to be forged, fraudulent, non‑compliant, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or the existence of any setoff or defense that any Obligor may have with respect to any Obligations. No Issuing Bank assumes any responsibility for any failure or delay in performance or any breach by any Borrower or other Person of any obligations under any LC Documents. No Issuing Bank makes to Lenders any express or implied warranty, representation or guaranty with respect to the Collateral, LC Documents or any Obligor. No Issuing Bank shall be responsible to any Lender for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties

contained in, or for the execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness or enforceability of, any LC Documents; the validity, genuineness, enforceability, collectability, value or sufficiency of any Collateral or the perfection of any Lien therein; or the assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, business, creditworthiness or legal status of any Obligor.

(d) No Issuing Bank Indemnitee shall be liable to any Lender or other Person for any action taken or omitted to be taken in connection with any LC Documents or this Section 2.3 except as a result of its gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith. No Issuing Bank shall have any liability to any Lender if such Issuing Bank refrains from any action under any Letter of Credit or LC Documents until it receives written instructions from Required Lenders.

2.3.3. Cash Collateral. If any LC Obligations, whether or not then due or payable, shall for any reason be outstanding at any time (a) that an Event of Default exists, (b) that Availability is less than zero, (c) after the Commitment Termination Date, or (d) within five Business Days prior to the Revolver Termination Date, then Borrowers shall, at any Issuing Bank's or Agent's written request, Cash Collateralize the aggregate maximum amount then potentially available for draw under all outstanding Letters of Credit and pay to the Issuing Banks the amount of all other outstanding LC Obligations. Subject to Section 4.2.2, Borrowers shall, on demand by any Issuing Bank or Agent from time to time, Cash Collateralize the Fronting Exposure of any Defaulting Lender not otherwise covered by the arrangements referenced in Section 2.3.1(a)(iii). If Borrowers fail to Cash Collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit as required herein, Lenders may (and shall upon direction of Agent) advance, as a Borrowing of Base Rate Revolver Loans, the amount of the Cash Collateral required (whether or not the Commitments have terminated, an Overadvance exists or the conditions in Section 6 are satisfied), provided that Borrowers shall not be deemed to have made any representation or warranty that such conditions are satisfied in connection with any such advance of Loans.

2.3.4. Resignation of Issuing Bank. Any Issuing Bank may resign at any time upon five Business Days' prior written notice to Agent and Borrower Agent. On the effective date of such resignation, such Issuing Bank shall have no further obligation to issue, amend, renew, extend or otherwise modify any Letter of Credit, but shall honor such Letter of Credit in accordance with its then existing obligations thereunder and shall continue to have the benefits of Sections 2.3, 11.6 and 13.2 with respect to any Letters of Credit issued or other actions taken while an Issuing Bank. Agent may appoint a replacement Issuing Bank (other than a Defaulting Lender) with the consent of such replacement Issuing Bank and, as long as no Default or Event of Default exists, such replacement shall be subject to the consent of Borrower Agent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

SECTION 3. INTEREST, FEES AND CHARGES

3.1. Interest.

3.1.1. Rates and Payment of Interest.

(a) The Obligations shall bear interest (i) if a Base Rate Loan, at the Base Rate in effect from time to time plus the Applicable Margin; (ii) if a LIBOR Loan (other than an Alternate Swingline Loan), at the LIBOR for the applicable Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin; (iii) if an Alternate Swingline Loan, at the Alternate Currency Rate plus the Applicable Margin; and (iv) if any other Obligation (including, to the extent permitted by law, interest not paid when due), at the Base Rate in effect from time to time plus the

Applicable Margin for Base Rate Revolver Loans. Interest shall accrue from the date the Loan is advanced or the Obligation is incurred or payable, until paid by Borrowers. If a Loan is repaid on the same day made, one day's interest shall accrue.

(b) During the continuance of an Event of Default, if Required Lenders in their discretion so elect, the Obligations shall bear interest at the Default Rate; provided, however that, at all times during the continuance of an Event of Default resulting from a default in the payment of principal of the Loans when and as required to be paid (whether at stated maturity, on demand, upon acceleration or otherwise), the Obligations shall bear interest at the Default Rate. Each Borrower acknowledges that the cost and expense to Agent and each Lender due to an Event of Default are difficult to ascertain and that the Default Rate is a fair and reasonable estimate to compensate Agent and Lenders for such added cost and expense.

(c) Interest accrued on the Loans shall be due and payable in arrears, (i) for any Base Rate Loan, on the last day of each Fiscal Quarter, for any LIBOR Loan with an Interest Period of 90 days or less, on the last day of such Interest Period and for any LIBOR Loan with an Interest Period longer than 90 days, on 90^th day after the first day of such Interest Period and on the last day of such Interest Period; (ii) on any date of prepayment, with respect to the principal amount of Loans being prepaid; and (iii) on the Commitment Termination Date. Interest accrued on any other Obligations shall be due and payable as provided in the Credit Documents and, if no payment date is specified, shall be due and payable on demand. Notwithstanding the foregoing, interest accrued at the Default Rate shall be due and payable on demand.

3.1.2. Application of LIBOR to Outstanding Loans.

(a) Borrowers may on any Business Day, subject to delivery of a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, elect to convert any portion of the Base Rate Loans to, or to continue any LIBOR Loan at the end of its Interest Period as, a LIBOR Loan. During the continuance of any Default or Event of Default, no Loan may be made, converted or continued as a LIBOR Loan without the consent of Required Lenders.

(b) Whenever Borrowers desire to convert or continue Loans as LIBOR Loans, Borrower Agent shall give Agent a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, no later than 11:00 a.m. at least two Business Days before the requested conversion or continuation date. Promptly after receiving any such notice, Agent shall notify each Lender thereof. Each Notice of Conversion/Continuation shall be irrevocable, shall be written (or telephonic, if promptly confirmed in writing), and shall specify the aggregate principal amount of Loans to be converted or continued, the conversion or continuation date (which shall be a Business Day), whether such Loans are Revolver Loans or FILO Loans and the duration of the Interest Period (which shall be deemed to be 30 days if not specified). If, upon the expiration of any Interest Period in respect of any LIBOR Loans, Borrowers shall have failed to deliver a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, they shall be deemed to have elected to convert such Loans into Base Rate Loans. Notices given by electronic mail or submitted through Agent's website shall be deemed to have been given in writing. Agent does not warrant or accept responsibility for, nor shall it have any liability with respect to, administration, submission or any other matter related to any rate described in the definition of LIBOR.

3.1.3. Interest Periods. In connection with the making, conversion or continuation of any LIBOR Loans, Borrower Agent shall select an interest period ("Interest Period") to apply, which interest period shall be the period commencing on the date such LIBOR Loan is disbursed or

converted to or continued as a LIBOR Loan and ending on the date one week or 30, 60, 90 or 180 days thereafter, as selected by Borrower Agent in the Notice of Borrowing; provided that:

(a) the Interest Period shall begin on the date the Loan is made or continued as, or converted into, a LIBOR Loan, and shall expire on the numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at its end;

(b) if any Interest Period begins on a day for which there is no corresponding day in the calendar month at its end or if such corresponding day falls after the last Business Day of such month, then the Interest Period shall expire on the last Business Day of such month; and if any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day that is not a Business Day, the period shall expire on the next Business Day; and

3.1.4. Inability to Determine Rates

(a) If in connection with any request for a LIBOR Loan or a conversion to or continuation thereof, (i) the Agent determines that (A) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such LIBOR Loan, or (B) (x) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the LIBOR rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Loan or in connection with an existing or proposed Base Rate Loan and (y) the circumstances described in Section 3.1.4(c)(i) do not apply (in each case with respect to this clause (i), “Impacted Loans”), or (ii) the Agent or the Required Lenders determine that for any reason the LIBOR rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such LIBOR Loan, the Agent will promptly so notify the Borrowers and each Lender. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain LIBOR Loans shall be suspended, (to the extent of the affected LIBOR Loans or Interest Periods), and (y) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the LIBOR rate component of the Base Rate, the utilization of the LIBOR rate component in determining the Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case until the Agent (or, in the case of a determination by the Required Lenders described in clause (ii) of Section 3.1.4 (a), until the Agent upon instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrowers may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of LIBOR Loans (to the extent of the affected LIBOR Loans or Interest Periods) or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Agent has made the determination described in clause (i) of Section 3.1.4(a), the Agent, in consultation with and subject to the approval of the Borrowers, may establish an alternative interest rate for the Impacted Loans, in which case, such alternative rate of interest shall apply with respect to the Impacted Loans until (i) the Agent revokes the notice delivered with respect to the Impacted Loans under clause (i) of the first sentence of Section 3.1.4(a), (ii) the Agent or the Required Lenders notify the Agent and the Borrowers that such alternative interest rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding the Impacted Loans, or (iii) any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its applicable lending office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to such alternative rate of interest or to determine or charge interest rates based upon such rate; or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to do any of the foregoing and provides the Agent and the Borrowers written notice thereof, provided that if a Borrower objects to such application, no such alternative interest rate shall apply and all such Impacted Loans then outstanding shall immediately convert to Base Rate Loans.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, if the Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), or the Borrower or Required Lenders notify the Agent (with, in the case of the Required Lenders, a copy to the Borrowers) that the Borrowers or Required Lenders (as applicable) have determined, that:

(i) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR for any requested Interest Period, including, without limitation, because the LIBOR Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary; or

(ii) the administrator of the LIBOR Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which LIBOR or the LIBOR Screen Rate shall no longer be made available, or used for determining the interest rate of loans, provided that, at the time of such statement, there is no successor administrator that is satisfactory to the Agent, that will continue to provide LIBOR after such specific date (such specific date, the “Scheduled Unavailability Date”), or

(iii) syndicated loans currently being executed, or that include language similar to that contained in this Section 3.1.4, are being executed or amended (as applicable) to incorporate or adopt a new benchmark interest rate to replace LIBOR,

then, reasonably promptly after such determination by the Agent or receipt by the Agent of such notice, as applicable, the Agent and the Borrowers may, by mutual agreement, amend this Agreement to replace LIBOR with (x) one or more SOFR-Based Rates or (y) another alternate benchmark rate giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar U.S. dollar denominated syndicated credit facilities for such alternative benchmarks and, in each case, including any mathematical or other adjustments to such benchmark giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar U.S. dollar denominated syndicated credit facilities for such benchmarks, which adjustment or method for calculating such adjustment shall be published on an information service as selected by the Agent from time to time in its reasonable discretion and may be periodically updated (the “Adjustment;” and any such proposed rate, a “LIBOR Successor Rate”), and any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth Business Day after the Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Borrowers unless, prior to such time, Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Agent written notice that such Required Lenders (A) in the case of an amendment to replace LIBOR with a rate described in clause (x), object to the Adjustment; or (B) in the case of an amendment to replace LIBOR with a rate described in clause (y), object to such amendment; provided that for the avoidance of doubt, in the case of clause (A), the Required Lenders shall not be entitled to object to any SOFR-Based Rate contained in any such amendment. Such LIBOR 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 LIBOR Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner as otherwise reasonably determined by the Agent.

If no LIBOR Successor Rate has been determined and the circumstances under clause (i) above exist or the Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred (as applicable), the Agent will promptly so notify the Borrowers and each Lender. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain LIBOR Loans shall be suspended, (to the extent of the affected LIBOR Loans or Interest Periods), and (y) the LIBOR rate component shall no longer be utilized in determining the Base Rate. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of LIBOR Loans (to the extent of the affected LIBOR Loans or Interest Periods) or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans (subject to the foregoing clause (y)) in the amount specified therein.

Notwithstanding anything else herein, any definition of LIBOR Successor Rate shall provide that in no event shall such LIBOR Successor Rate be less than zero for purposes of this Agreement.

In connection with the implementation of a LIBOR Successor Rate, the Agent will have the right to make LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement.

For purposes hereof:

“LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes” means, with respect to any proposed LIBOR Successor Rate, any conforming changes to the definition of Base Rate, Interest Period, timing and frequency of determining rates and making payments of interest and other technical, administrative or operational matters as may be appropriate, in the discretion of the Agent, in consultation with the Borrowers, to reflect the adoption and implementation of such LIBOR Successor Rate and to permit the administration thereof by the Agent in a manner substantially consistent with market practice (or, if the Agent determines that adoption of any portion of such market practice is not administratively feasible or that no market practice for the administration of such LIBOR Successor Rate exists, in such other manner of administration as the Agent determines is reasonably necessary in connection with the administration of this Agreement).

“Relevant Governmental Body” means the Federal Reserve Board and/or the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, or a committee officially endorsed or convened by the Federal Reserve Board and/or the Federal Reserve Bank of New York for the purpose of recommending a benchmark rate to replace LIBOR in loan agreements similar to this Agreement.

“SOFR” with respect to any day means the secured overnight financing rate published for such day by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, as the administrator of the benchmark (or a successor administrator) on the Federal Reserve Bank of New York’s website (or any successor source) and, in each case, that has been selected or recommended by the Relevant Governmental Body.

“SOFR-Based Rate” means SOFR or Term SOFR.

“Term SOFR” means the forward-looking term rate for any period that is approximately (as determined by the Agent) as long as any of the Interest Period options set forth in the definition of “Interest Period” and that is based on SOFR and that has been selected or recommended by the Relevant Governmental Body, in each case as published on an information service as selected by the Agent from time to time in its reasonable discretion.

3.2 Fees.

3.2.1. Unused Line Fee. Borrowers shall pay to Agent, for the Pro Rata benefit of the Revolving Lenders (other than a Defaulting Lender), a fee equal to the Unused Line Fee Percentage per annum multiplied by the amount by which the (a) Revolver Commitments exceed (b) the average daily balance of Revolver Loans and stated amount of Letters of Credit during any Fiscal Quarter. In addition, Borrowers shall pay to Agent, for the Pro Rata benefit of the FILO Lenders (other than a Defaulting Lender), a fee equal to the Unused Line Fee Percentage per annum multiplied by the amount by which the (a) FILO Commitments exceed (b) the average daily balance of FILO Loans

during any Fiscal Quarter. Such fees shall be payable in arrears, on the first Business Day of each Fiscal Quarter and on the Commitment Termination Date.

3.2.2. LC Facility Fees. Borrowers shall pay (a) to Agent, for the Pro Rata benefit of Revolving Lenders or Issuing Bank, as described below, a fee equal to the Applicable Margin in effect for LIBOR Revolver Loans times the average daily Stated Amount of Letters of Credit, which fee shall be payable quarterly in arrears, on the first Business Day of each Fiscal Quarter; (b) to Issuing Bank, for its own account, a fronting fee equal to 0.125% of the Stated Amount of each Letter of Credit, which fee shall be payable quarterly in arrears, on the first Business Day of each quarter and on the Commitment Termination Date; and (c) to Issuing Bank, for its own account, all customary charges associated with the issuance, amending, negotiating, payment, processing, transfer and administration of Letters of Credit, which charges shall be paid as and when incurred. During an Event of Default, the fee payable under clause (a) shall be increased by 2% per annum. Subject to Section 4.2.2, any fee described in clause (a) above payable for the benefit of a Defaulting Lender shall be paid, instead, to Issuing Bank unless the Fronting Exposure for such Defaulting Lender's LC Obligations has been Cash Collateralized, in which case such fees shall not be payable.

3.2.3. Other Fees. Borrowers shall pay to Bank of America the fees described in the Fee Letter, including, without limitation, the upfront fees described therein payable for the benefit of Lenders.

3.3. Computation of Interest, Fees, Yield Protection. All interest, as well as fees and other charges calculated on a per annum basis, shall be computed for the actual days elapsed, based on a year of 360 days, except that interest accrued on Base Rate Loans shall be based on a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be. Each determination by Agent of any interest, fees or interest rate hereunder shall be presumed correct absent manifest error. All fees shall be fully earned when due and shall not be subject to rebate or refund, nor subject to proration except as specifically provided herein or in separate documentation entered into between or among the relevant parties thereto, including the Fee Letter. All fees payable under Section 3.2 are compensation for services and are not, and shall not be deemed to be, interest or any other charge for the use, forbearance or detention of money for purposes of applicable usury laws. A certificate as to amounts payable by Borrowers under Section 3.4, 3.6, 3.8 or 5.8, submitted to Borrower Agent by Agent or the affected Lender, as applicable, describing in reasonable detail the basis and calculation of such amounts, shall be presumed correct absent manifest error. Borrowers' obligations under this paragraph shall survive the termination of the Commitments and the repayment of all other Obligations.

3.4. Reimbursement Obligations.

(a) Borrowers shall pay, or reimburse Agent for Agent's payment of, all Extraordinary Expenses incurred by Agent or paid by Agent, in each case within ten days of written request. Borrowers shall also reimburse Agent for all reasonable out-of-pocket legal (for outside counsel), accounting, appraisal, consulting, and other reasonable fees, costs and expenses incurred by it in connection with (i) negotiation and preparation of any Credit Documents, including any amendment or other modification thereof; (ii) administration of and actions relating to any Collateral, Credit Documents and transactions contemplated thereby, including any actions taken to perfect or maintain priority of Agent's Liens on any Collateral, to maintain any insurance required hereunder or to verify Collateral; and (iii) subject to the limits of Section 9.1.10(b), each inspection, audit or appraisal with respect to any Obligor or Collateral; provided that (A) Borrowers shall also reimburse Lenders (in addition to Agent) for all reasonable out-of-pocket legal fees, costs and expenses of one outside counsel to Lenders as a group in connection with any Enforcement Action (including any restructuring or work out) or in connection with the exercise, protection or

enforcement of any rights or remedies of Agent and/or Lenders in, or in the monitoring of, any Insolvency Proceeding relating to any Obligor or its property, and (B) except as provided in clause (A) above, such legal fees, costs and expenses reimbursable by Borrowers pursuant to this sentence shall be limited to one outside counsel of Agent plus one outside counsel of Agent in each jurisdiction of formation or organization of any Obligor. Subject to the limitations set forth herein, all out-of-pocket outside legal, accounting and consulting fees shall be charged to Borrowers by Agent's professionals at their full hourly rates regardless of any reduced or alternative fee billing arrangements that Agent, any Lender or any of their Affiliates may have with such professionals with respect to this or any other transaction. All amounts reimbursable by Borrowers under this Section shall constitute Obligations secured by the Collateral and shall be payable within ten days of written request.

(b) If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial statements of MLP Parent and/or its Subsidiaries or for any other reason, Borrowers or Required Lenders determine that (i) the Quarterly Average Availability as calculated by Borrowers as of any applicable date was inaccurate and (ii) a proper calculation of the Quarterly Average Availability would have resulted in higher or lower pricing for such period, (A) in the case of higher pricing, Borrowers shall immediately and retroactively be obligated to pay to Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders, promptly on demand by Agent (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to any Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, automatically and without further action by Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank), an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period, and (B) in the case of lower pricing, the applicable Lenders shall immediately and retroactively be obligated to pay to Borrowers, promptly on demand by Borrowers (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to Borrowers under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, automatically and without further action by any Borrower), an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that was actually paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period, provided, however, that if an Event of Default has then occurred and is continuing, Agent shall be entitled to apply such amount or any portion thereof to any Obligations which are then due and/or retain (for so long as such Event of Default is continuing) such amount or any portion thereof as Cash Collateral. In the event of any change in GAAP applicable to Borrowers and other similarly situated entities generally, if any such change would otherwise requires a restatement or other retroactive financial statement adjustment as a result of the retroactive application of such revised GAAP principles, then Section 1.2.2 shall control and all fee related calculations shall continue to be made as set forth in Section 1.2.2.

3.5. Illegality. If any Lender determines in good faith that any Applicable Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund LIBOR Loans, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon LIBOR, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank market, then, on written notice thereof by such Lender to Borrower Agent through Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue LIBOR Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to LIBOR Loans shall be suspended until such Lender notifies Agent and Borrower Agent that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist, which such Lender agrees to do promptly upon the occurrence thereof. Upon receipt of such notice, Borrowers shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to Agent), prepay all LIBOR Loans of such Lender or, if applicable, convert all LIBOR Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Loans to such day,

or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

3.6. Increased Costs.

3.6.1. Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:

(a) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, liquidity, 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 (except any reserve requirement contemplated by Section 3.6.5) or Issuing Bank;

(b) subject any Recipient to Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes, and (C) Connection Income Taxes) with respect to any Loan, Letter of Credit Commitment or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(c) impose on any Lender, Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting any Loan, Letter of Credit, participation in LC Obligations, Commitment or Credit Document;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Loan or Commitment, or converting to or continuing any interest option for a Loan, or to increase the cost to such Lender or Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender or Issuing Bank, Borrowers will pay to such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

3.6.2. Capital Requirements, etc. If any Lender or Issuing Bank determines in good faith that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or Issuing Bank or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender's or Issuing Bank's holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender's or Issuing Bank's capital or on the capital of such Lender's or Issuing Bank's holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitment of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or Issuing Bank or such Lender's or Issuing Bank's holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender's or Issuing Bank's policies and the policies of such Lender's or Issuing Bank's holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time Borrowers will pay to such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or such Lender's or Issuing Bank's holding company for any such reduction suffered.

3.6.3. Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender or Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in Section 3.6.1 or Section 3.6.2 of this Section, and delivered to Borrower Agent in accordance with Section 3.3 shall be presumed correct absent manifest error. Borrowers shall pay such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

3.6.4. Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender's or Issuing Bank's right to demand such compensation, provided that Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or Issuing Bank pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies Borrower Agent in writing of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender's or Issuing Bank's intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

3.6.5. Reserves on LIBOR Loans. Borrowers shall pay to each Lender, as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits, additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each LIBOR Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), which shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan, provided Borrowers shall have received at least 10 days' prior notice (with a copy to Agent) of such additional interest from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice 10 days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest shall be due and payable 10 days from receipt of such notice.

3.7. Mitigation.

3.7.1. Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.6, or if any Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 5.8, or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 3.5, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (a) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 5.8 or Section 3.6, as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant to Section 3.5, as applicable, and (b) in each case, would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender or unlawful. Borrowers hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

3.7.2. Replacement of Lenders. (a) If any Lender gives notice pursuant to Section 3.5 or requests compensation under Section 3.6, (b) if Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 5.8, (c) if a Lender is a Defaulting Lender or (d) if any Lender is a Non-Consenting Lender, Borrowers may replace such Lender in accordance with Section 13.17.

3.8. Funding Losses. If for any reason (other than default by a Lender) (a) any borrowing of, or conversion to or continuation of, a LIBOR Loan does not occur on the date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation (whether or not withdrawn), (b) any repayment or conversion of a LIBOR Loan occurs on a day other than the end of its Interest Period, (c) Borrowers fail to repay a LIBOR Loan when required hereunder, or (d) Borrowers revoke any notice of termination of the Commitments delivered pursuant to Section 2.1.3, then Borrowers shall pay to Agent its customary administrative charge and to each Lender all losses and expenses that such Lender sustains as a consequence thereof, including any loss or expense arising from liquidation or redeployment of funds or from fees payable to terminate deposits of matching funds. Subject to Section 3.3, a Lender's demand for payment of such

losses and expenses shall set forth the nature thereof and a calculation of the amount to be paid in reasonable detail, which demand shall be delivered to Borrower Agent within 90 days after such Lender has made a determination of such losses or expenses and in no event later than nine months after the occurrence of the event that gave rise to such losses or expenses. Lenders shall not be required to purchase Dollar deposits in the London interbank market or any other offshore Dollar market to fund any LIBOR Loan, but the provisions hereof shall be deemed to apply as if each Lender had purchased such deposits to fund its LIBOR Loan.

3.9. Maximum Interest. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Credit Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Credit Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by Applicable Law (the "Maximum Rate"). If Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or other applicable Obligations (other than Bank Product Indebtedness) then due or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to Borrowers. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged or received by Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate and spread, in equal or unequal parts, the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

SECTION 4. LOAN ADMINISTRATION

4.1 Manner of Borrowing and Funding Revolver Loans.

4.1.1. Notice of Borrowing.

(a) Whenever Borrowers desire funding of a Borrowing of any Loans, Borrower Agent shall give Agent a Notice of Borrowing. Such notice must be received by Agent no later than 1:00 p.m. (i) on the Business Day of the requested funding date, in the case of Base Rate Loans, (ii) at least two Business Days prior to the requested funding date, in the case of LIBOR Loans (other than Alternate Swingline Loans), and (iii) at least three Business Days prior to the requested funding date, in the case of Alternate Swingline Loans. Notices received after 1:00 p.m. shall be deemed received on the next Business Day. Each Notice of Borrowing (including any telephonic notice thereof, any notice given via electronic mail and any notice submitted through Agent's website) shall be irrevocable and shall specify (A) the principal amount of the Borrowing, (B) the requested funding date (which must be a Business Day), (C) whether the Borrowing is of Revolver Loans or FILO Loans; provided that such Borrowing shall be Revolver Loans unless the outstanding principal amount of FILO Loans is less than the FILO Maximum Amount, in which case up to an amount equal to the FILO Maximum Amount minus the outstanding principal amount of FILO Loans of such Loans shall be FILO Loans, and the remaining amount of such Loans shall be Revolver Loans, (D) whether the Borrowing is to be made as Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Loans, (E) in the case of LIBOR Loans, the duration of the applicable Interest Period (which shall be deemed to be 30 days if not specified), (F) whether such Loan is a General Revolver Loan or a Distribution Revolver Loan, and (G) if such Loan is to be a General Revolver Loan and is to be funded as a Swingline Loan in an Alternate Currency, the Alternate Currency in which such Loan is to be funded (and, if applicable, the Interest Period applicable to such Alternate Swingline Loan).

(b) Unless payment is otherwise timely made by Borrowers, the becoming due of any Obligations (whether principal, interest, fees or other charges, including Extraordinary Expenses, LC Obligations, Cash Collateral and Bank Product Indebtedness) shall be deemed irrevocably to be a request (without any requirement for a Notice of Borrowing) for Base

Rate Loans on the due date, in the amount of such Obligations; provided that such Loans shall be Revolver Loans unless the outstanding principal amount of FILO Loans is less than the FILO Maximum Amount, in which case up to an amount equal to the FILO Maximum Amount minus the outstanding principal amount of FILO Loans of such Loans shall be FILO Loans, and the remaining amount of such Loans shall be Revolver Loans. The proceeds of such Loans shall be disbursed as direct payment of the relevant Obligation.

(c) If Borrowers establish a controlled disbursement account with Agent or any Affiliate of Agent, then the presentation for payment of any check or other item of payment drawn on such account at a time when there are insufficient funds to cover it shall be deemed to be a request (without any requirement for a Notice of Borrowing) for Base Rate Revolver Loans or Base Rate FILO Loans, as applicable, on the date of such presentation; in the amount of the check and items presented for payment provided that such Loans shall be Revolver Loans unless the outstanding principal amount of FILO Loans is less than the FILO Maximum Amount, in which case up to an amount equal to the FILO Maximum Amount minus the outstanding principal amount of FILO Loans of such Loans shall be FILO Loans, and the remaining amount of such Loans shall be Revolver Loans. The proceeds of such Loans may be disbursed directly to the controlled disbursement account.

(d) Neither Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to Borrowers to honor any deemed request for a Loan (i) on or after the Commitment Termination Date, (ii) when an Overadvance exists or would result therefrom, or (iii) when any condition in Section 6 is not satisfied, but may do so in their discretion, without being deemed to have waived any Default or Event of Default (provided that Borrowers shall not be deemed to have made any representation or warranty that such conditions in Section 6 are satisfied in connection with any such deemed request (as opposed to any actual request) for Loans).

4.1.2. Fundings by Lenders. Each Revolver Lender shall timely honor its Revolver Commitment by funding its Pro Rata share of each Borrowing of Revolver Loans that is properly requested hereunder. Each FILO Lender shall timely honor its FILO Commitment by funding its Pro Rata share of each Borrowing of FILO Loans that is properly requested hereunder. Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to notify Lenders of each Notice of Borrowing (or deemed request for a Borrowing) by 2:00 p.m. on the proposed funding date for Base Rate Loans or by 5:00 p.m. at least two Business Days before any proposed funding of LIBOR Loans. Each Lender shall fund to Agent such Lender's Pro Rata share of the Borrowing to the account specified by Agent in immediately available funds not later than 4:00 p.m. on the requested funding date, unless Agent's notice is received after the times provided above, in which event Lender shall fund its Pro Rata share by 1:00 p.m. on the next Business Day. Subject to its receipt of such amounts from Lenders, Agent shall make available the proceeds of the Loans as directed by Borrower Agent. Unless Agent shall have received (in sufficient time to act) written notice from a Lender that it does not intend to fund its Pro Rata share of a Borrowing, Agent may assume that such Lender has deposited or promptly will deposit its share with Agent, and Agent may disburse a corresponding amount to Borrowers. If a Lender's share of any Borrowing is not in fact received by Agent, then Borrowers agree to repay to Agent on demand the amount of such share, together with interest thereon from the date disbursed until repaid, at the rate applicable to such Borrowing.

4.1.3. Swingline Loans; Settlement.

(a) Subject to the proviso below, Agent shall, upon the request of Borrower Agent made in accordance with Section 4.1.1 and subject to the satisfaction of all conditions precedent set forth in Section 6.2, advance Swingline Loans to Borrowers out of Agent's

own funds, up to an aggregate outstanding amount (for all Swingline Loans, including any Alternate Swingline Loans) equal to the greater of $60,000,000 or 10% of the Revolver Commitments then in effect (but not to exceed the Revolver Commitments then in effect); provided, however, that Agent shall not be obligated to advance Swingline Loans (i) if, after giving effect thereto, the Facility Usage would exceed the Aggregate Borrowing Base, or (ii) unless, if so requested by Agent and subject to Section 4.2.2, the Fronting Exposure of any Defaulting Lender is Cash Collateralized by Borrowers or Borrowers otherwise enter into arrangements satisfactory to Agent to eliminate any funding risk with respect to such Defaulting Lender, as Agent may request from time to time. Each Swingline Loan shall constitute a Revolver Loan for all purposes, except that payments thereon shall be made to Agent for its own account. Swingline Loans shall be repaid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and shall be secured by all Collateral. In no event shall Agent be obligated to honor a request for a Swingline Loan if Agent knows that an Overadvance then exists or would result therefrom, provided that Agent may honor such request if such Swingline Loan would otherwise be permitted as an Overadvance or a Protective Advance. The obligation of Borrowers to repay Swingline Loans shall be evidenced by the records of Agent and need not be evidenced by any promissory note.

(b) To facilitate administration of the Revolver Loans, Lenders and Agent agree (which agreement is solely among them, and not for the benefit of or enforceable by any Borrower) that settlement among them with respect to Swingline Loans (including, without limitation, payment of the principal amount thereof and accrued interest thereon) and other Loans may take place periodically on a date determined from time to time by Agent, which (i) for Swingline Loans other than Alternate Swingline Loans, shall occur at least once every five Business Days and (ii) for Alternate Swingline Loans, shall occur at any time as Agent may determine by notice to Lenders, provided, that Alternate Swingline Loans shall be settled in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent Amount of the Alternate Currency in which such Alternate Swingline Loan was funded, determined as provided in Section 1.5.1. On each settlement date, settlement shall be made with each Lender in accordance with the Settlement Report delivered by Agent to Lenders; provided that Swingline Loans shall be settled as Revolver Loans unless the outstanding principal amount of FILO Loans is less than the FILO Maximum Amount, in which case up to an amount equal to the FILO Maximum Amount minus the outstanding principal amount of FILO Loans of such Revolver Loans shall be settled as FILO Loans, and the remaining amount of such Loans shall be settled as Revolver Loans. Between settlement dates, Agent may in its discretion apply payments on Revolver Loans to Swingline Loans (other than Alternate Swingline Loans), regardless of any designation by Borrower Agent or any Borrower or any provision herein to the contrary (provided that Agent shall provide notice to Borrower Agent of any such application by Agent in a reasonably prompt fashion). Each Lender hereby purchases, without recourse or warranty, an undivided Pro Rata participation in all Swingline Loans outstanding from time to time until settled. If a Swingline Loan cannot be settled among Lenders, whether due to an Obligor's Insolvency Proceeding or for any other reason, (i) each FILO Lender shall be deemed to have purchased from Agent a Pro Rata participation in each unpaid Swingline Loan (in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed the aggregate amount of the FILO Commitments minus the outstanding principal amount of FILO Loans) and (ii) each Revolver Lender shall be deemed to have purchased from Agent a Pro Rata participation in each unpaid Swingline Loan to the extent not participated to the FILO Lenders pursuant to the foregoing clause (i) and, in each case, such Lenders shall pay the amount of its participation in the Loan to Agent, in immediately available funds, within one Business Day after Agent's request therefor. Lenders' obligations to make settlements and to fund participations are absolute, irrevocable and unconditional, without offset,

counterclaim or other defense, and whether or not the Commitments have terminated, an Overadvance exists, or the conditions in Section 6 are satisfied.

(c) If a Notice of Borrowing delivered pursuant to Section 4.1.1(a) specifies that a Borrowing is to be funded as a Swingline Loan in an Alternate Currency, then, subject to the terms of this Agreement (including, without limitation, this Section 4.1.3) and Agent's standard policies and procedures for the funding, continuation and administration of loans in such Alternate Currency which are not in conflict with this Agreement (including the availability of such Alternate Currency, which standard policies and procedures shall be applicable thereto to the extent not in conflict with this Agreement), such Loan shall be funded by Agent as a Swingline Loan in such Alternate Currency (any such Swingline Loan funded in an Alternate Currency, an "Alternate Swingline Loan"). Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Agent shall make Alternate Swingline Loans on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date to the Revolver Termination Date, not to exceed an amount (based on the Dollar Equivalent Amount thereof) equal to the Alternate Swingline Commitment, which Alternate Swingline Loans may be repaid and reborrowed in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Alternate Swingline Loans shall bear interest as provided for Alternate Swingline Loans in Section 3.1. Each Alternate Swingline Loan shall be repaid in the Alternate Currency in which it was funded by Agent. For purposes of Sections 3.1.1(c), 3.1.3, 3.1.4, 3.5, 3.6 and 3.8 of this Agreement, each Alternate Swingline Loan shall be deemed to be a LIBOR Loan.

4.1.4. Telephonic Notices. Each Borrower authorizes Agent and Lenders to extend, convert or continue Loans, effect selections of interest rates, and transfer funds to or on behalf of Borrowers (but not change the account into which Loan proceeds are to be deposited) based on telephonic instructions. Borrower Agent shall confirm each such telephonic request by prompt delivery to Agent of a written Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation, if applicable, duly executed by an authorized officer of Borrower Agent. If a written confirmation differs in any material respect from the action taken by Agent or Lenders, the records of Agent and Lenders shall govern. Neither Agent nor any Lender shall have any liability for any loss suffered by any Obligor as a result of Agent or any Lender acting upon its good faith understanding of telephonic or emailed instructions from a person believed in good faith by Agent or any Lender to be a person authorized to give such instructions on an Obligor's behalf.

4.1.5. Electronic Notices. Each Borrower authorizes Agent and Lenders to extend, convert or continue Loans, effect selections of interest rates, and transfer funds to or on behalf of Borrowers based on instructions delivered via electronic mail or submitted through Agent's website. Neither Agent nor any Lender shall have any liability for any loss suffered by an Obligor as a result of Agent or any Lender acting upon its good faith understanding of instructions delivered via electronic mail or submitted through Agent's website from a source believed in good faith by Agent or any Lender to be authorized to give such instructions on an Obligor's behalf.

4.2. Defaulting Lender.

4.2.1. Reallocation of Pro Rata Share; Amendments. For purposes of determining Lenders' obligations or rights to fund, participate in or receive collections with respect to Loans and Letters of Credit (including existing Swingline Loans, Protective Advances and LC Obligations), Agent shall reallocate Pro Rata shares by excluding the Commitments and Loans of any Defaulting Lender(s) from the calculation of Pro Rata shares, provided, however, that in no event shall any Revolver Lender be obligated to fund or participate in Revolver Loans or Letters of Credit in an aggregate amount in excess of its Revolver Commitment, and in no event shall any FILO Lender

be obligated to fund or participate in FILO Loans in an aggregate amount in excess of its FILO Commitment. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, a Defaulting Lender shall have no right to vote on any amendment, waiver or other modification of a Credit Document, except for an amendment, waiver or other modification (a) relating to an increase in the Commitment of a Defaulting Lender, (b) relating to a postponement of any date fixed for payment of principal or interest on Loans held by a Defaulting Lender, (c) relating to a reduction or forgiveness of the principal of, or the rate of interest applicable to, any Loan held by a Defaulting Lender, or (d) relating to any provision altering the voting rights of a Defaulting Lender set forth in the immediately preceding clause (a), (b) or (c).

4.2.2. Payments; Fees. Agent may, in its discretion, receive and retain any amounts payable to a Defaulting Lender under the Credit Documents, and a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed to have assigned to Agent such amounts until all Obligations owing to Agent, non-Defaulting Lenders and other Secured Parties have been paid in full. Agent may apply such amounts to the Defaulting Lender's defaulted obligations, use the funds to Cash Collateralize such Defaulting Lender's Fronting Exposure, readvance the amounts to Borrowers hereunder or repay Obligations. A Lender shall not be entitled to receive unused line fees paid pursuant to Section 3.2.1, letter of credit facility fees paid pursuant to Section 3.2.2 or any other fees accruing hereunder during the period in which it is a Defaulting Lender, and the unfunded portion of its Commitment shall be disregarded for purposes of calculating the unused line fee under Section 3.2.1. If any LC Obligations owing to a Defaulting Lender are reallocated to other Revolver Lenders, fees attributable to such LC Obligations under Section 3.2.2 shall be paid to such Revolver Lenders. Agent shall be paid all fees attributable to LC Obligations that are not reallocated.

4.2.3. Status; Cure. Agent may determine in its reasonable discretion that a Lender constitutes a Defaulting Lender and the effective date of such status shall be conclusive and binding on all parties, absent manifest error (provided that such right of determination by Agent shall not preclude Borrower Agent's right to make such a determination in accordance with the requirements of the definition of the term "Defaulting Lender"). Borrowers, Agent and, in the case of a Lender that is a Revolver Lender, Issuing Bank may agree in writing that a Lender has ceased to be a Defaulting Lender, whereupon Pro Rata shares shall be reallocated without exclusion of the reinstated Lender's Commitments and Loans, the Revolver Usage and other exposures under the Revolver Commitments shall be reallocated among Revolving Lenders, and all outstanding FILO Loans and other exposures under the FILO Commitments shall be reallocated among FILO Lenders, and, in each case, settled by Agent (with appropriate payments by the reinstated Lender, including payment of any breakage costs for reallocated LIBOR Loans) in accordance with the readjusted Pro Rata shares. Unless expressly agreed by Borrowers, Agent and Issuing Bank, or as expressly provided herein with respect to Bail-In Actions and related matters, no reallocation of Commitments and Loans to non-Defaulting Lenders or reinstatement of a Defaulting Lender shall constitute a waiver or release of claims against such Lender. The failure of any Lender to fund a Loan, to make a payment in respect of LC Obligations or otherwise to perform its obligations hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations under any Credit Document, and no Lender shall be responsible for default by another Lender.

4.3. Number and Amount of LIBOR Loans; Determination of Rate. For ease of administration, all LIBOR Revolver Loans having the same length and beginning date of their Interest Periods shall be aggregated together, and such Loans shall be allocated among Lenders on a Pro Rata basis. No more than ten aggregated LIBOR Loans may be outstanding at any time, and each aggregate LIBOR Loan when made, continued or converted shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 or an increment of $500,000 in excess thereof. Upon determining LIBOR for any Interest Period requested by Borrowers, Agent shall promptly

notify Borrower Agent thereof in writing, by telephone or electronically and, if requested by Borrower Agent, shall confirm any telephonic notice in writing.

4.4. Borrower Agent.

4.4.1. Designation. Each Borrower hereby designates MLP Parent ("Borrower Agent") as its representative and agent for all purposes under the Credit Documents, including requests for and receipt of Loans and Letters of Credit, designation of interest rates, delivery or receipt of communications with Agent, Issuing Bank or any Lender, preparation and delivery of Aggregate Borrowing Base and financial reports and other Obligor Materials, receipt and payment of Obligations, requests for waivers, amendments or other accommodations, actions under the Credit Documents (including in respect of compliance with covenants), and all other dealings with Agent, Issuing Bank or any Lender. Borrower Agent hereby accepts such appointment.

4.4.2. Reliance, etc. Agent and Lenders shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, any notice or communication (including any Notice of Borrowing) delivered by Borrower Agent on behalf of any Borrower. Agent and Lenders may give any notice or communication with a Borrower hereunder to Borrower Agent on behalf of such Borrower. Each of Agent, Issuing Bank and Lenders shall have the right, in its discretion, to deal exclusively with Borrower Agent for any or all purposes under the Credit Documents. Each Borrower agrees that any notice, election, communication, delivery, representation, agreement, action or undertaking on its behalf by Borrower Agent shall be binding upon and enforceable against it.

4.5. One Obligation. The Loans, LC Obligations and other Obligations shall constitute one general obligation of Borrowers and (unless otherwise expressly provided in any Credit Document) shall be secured by Agent's Lien upon all Collateral; provided, however, that Agent and each Lender shall be deemed to be a creditor of, and the holder of a separate claim against, each Borrower to the extent of any Obligations jointly or severally owed by such Borrower.

4.6. Effect of Termination; Survival. On the effective date of any termination of all of the Commitments, all Obligations shall be immediately due and payable, and any Lender may terminate its and its Affiliates' Bank Products (including, with the consent of Agent, any Cash Management Services). All undertakings of Obligors contained in the Credit Documents shall continue, and Agent shall retain its Liens in the Collateral and all of its rights and remedies under the Credit Documents until Full Payment of the Obligations. Notwithstanding Full Payment of the Obligations, Agent shall not be required to terminate its Liens in any Collateral unless, with respect to any damages Agent may incur as a result of the dishonor or return of Payment Items applied to Obligations, Agent receives (a) a written agreement, executed by Obligors and any Person whose advances are used in whole or in part to satisfy the Obligations, indemnifying Agent and Lenders from any such damages; or (b) such Cash Collateral as Agent, in its reasonable discretion, deems necessary to protect against any such damages. The provisions of Sections 2.3, 3.4, 3.6, 3.8, 5.4, 5.8, 5.9, 11, 13.2, 13.3 and this Section, and each indemnity or waiver given by an Obligor or Lender in any Credit Document, shall survive Full Payment of the Obligations and any release relating to this credit facility.

SECTION 5. PAYMENTS

5.1. General Payment Provisions. All payments of Obligations shall be made in Dollars (except as may be otherwise provided in this Agreement), without offset, counterclaim or defense of any kind, subject to the provisions of Section 5.8 and in immediately available funds, not later than 3:00 p.m. on the due date. Any payment after such time shall be deemed made on the next Business Day. Borrowers may, at the time of payment, specify to Agent the Obligations to which such payment is to be applied, but Agent shall, so long as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and whether or not an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing in the case of payments of interest accrued on the Loans and payments of fees

with respect to Letters of Credit payable under Section 3.2.2 when due, retain the right to apply such payment in such manner as Agent, subject to the provisions hereof, may determine to be appropriate consistent with the requirements of, or otherwise to ensure compliance with the terms and provisions of, this Agreement. If Borrowers fail to designate which type of Loans are to be repaid with any payment, the payment shall be applied first to the General Revolver Loans and then to the Distribution Revolver Loans. If any payment under the Credit Documents shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, the due date shall be extended to the next Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in any computation of interest and fees. Any payment of a LIBOR Loan prior to the end of its Interest Period shall be accompanied by all amounts due under Section 3.8. Any prepayment of Loans shall be applied first to Base Rate Loans and then to LIBOR Loans.

5.2. Repayment of Loans. The Revolver Loans shall be due and payable in full on the Revolver Termination Date, unless payment is sooner required hereunder. The FILO Loans shall be due and payable (a) on each of November 30, 2019, February 28, 2020 and May 31, 2020, to any extent that the outstanding principal amount of FILO Loans exceeds the FILO Commitments after giving effect to the reduction of the FILO Commitments pursuant to Section 2.1.1(c) and (b) in full on August 31, 2020, and repayment of FILO Loans may be made using the proceeds of a Revolving Loan (subject to the terms and conditions applicable to Revolving Loans generally including, without limitation, satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 6.2), thereby effecting the repayment of the applicable portion of a FILO Loan on such date with the proceeds of a Revolving Loan. Loans may be prepaid at any time from time to time, without penalty or premium; provided that, no prepayments of FILO Loans may be made unless all outstanding Revolver Loans have been repaid in full. If any Disposition (including any Involuntary Disposition) includes the disposition of Collateral (other than Inventory sold in the Ordinary Course of Business and Dispositions effected in accordance with Section 9.2.5 (h)), then Net Cash Proceeds of such Disposition in an amount equal to the greater of (a) the fair market value of such Collateral, or (b) the reduction in the Aggregate Borrowing Base upon giving effect to such Disposition (or Involuntary Disposition), shall be applied to the Loans; provided, however, that (i) with respect to the Net Cash Proceeds from any such Disposition of Refinery Assets, such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied to repay the Loans in an amount equal to the lesser of the Refinery Asset Borrowing Base Component and the outstanding unpaid principal balance of the Revolving Loans and (ii) to the extent of any surplus (“Surplus Net Cash Proceeds”) thereof following such repayment, and with respect to the Net Cash Proceeds from any Disposition of Collateral other than the Refinery Assets and any Surplus Net Cash Proceeds, if (x) no Cash Dominion Trigger Event then exists, and (y) immediately after giving effect to such Disposition (or Involuntary Disposition) and any reduction in the Aggregate Borrowing Base which has resulted or will result (determined as of the time of such Disposition or Involuntary Disposition) therefrom in accordance with this Agreement, no Overadvance will exist, then such Net Cash Proceeds shall be deposited into a Springing Dominion Account and may thereafter be expended or otherwise used by Borrowers in any manner not prohibited by this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if an Overadvance exists, Borrowers shall, on the sooner of Agent's demand or the first Business Day after any Borrower has knowledge thereof, repay the outstanding Loans in an amount sufficient to reduce Facility Usage to the Aggregate Borrowing Base; provided that, no prepayments of FILO Loans may be made unless all outstanding Revolver Loans have been repaid in full.

5.3. Payment of Other Obligations. Obligations other than Loans, including LC Obligations and Extraordinary Expenses, shall be paid by Borrowers as provided in the Credit Documents or, if no payment date is specified, on demand.

5.4. Marshaling; Payments Set Aside. None of Agent or Lenders shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Obligor or against any Obligations. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of Borrowers or from the proceeds of Collateral is made to Agent, Issuing Bank or any Lender, or Agent, Issuing Bank or any Lender exercises its right of setoff under Section 10.4, and such payment or

the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by Agent, Issuing Bank or such Lender in its discretion during an Event of Default or otherwise with Borrower Agent's prior written consent) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the Obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens and rights and remedies relating thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender and Issuing Bank severally agrees to pay to Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect.

5.5. Application and Allocation of Payments.

5.5.1. Application. Payments made by any Borrower or other Obligor hereunder shall be applied (a) first, as specifically required hereby; (b) second, to accrued and unpaid interest owing to Revolver Lenders hereunder, (c) third, to other Obligations then due and owing in respect of Revolver Loans; (d) fourth, to accrued and unpaid interest owing to FILO Lenders hereunder, (e) fifth, to other Obligations then due and owing in respect of FILO Loans, (f) sixth, to other Obligations specified by Borrowers; and (g) seventh, as determined by Agent in its discretion.

5.5.2. Post-Default Allocation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, during an Event of Default, monies to be applied to the Obligations, whether arising from payments by Obligors, realization on Collateral or otherwise, shall be allocated as follows:

(a) first, to all fees, indemnification, costs and expenses, including Extraordinary Expenses, owing to Agent;

(b) second, to all amounts owing to Agent on Swingline Loans, Protective Advances and Loans and participations that a Defaulting Lender has failed to settle or fund;

(d) fourth, to all Obligations (other than Bank Product Indebtedness) constituting fees, indemnification, costs or expenses on Revolver Loans owing to Revolver Lenders;

(e) fifth, to all Obligations (other than Bank Product Indebtedness) constituting interest on Revolver Loans;

(f) sixth, to Cash Collateralize all LC Obligations to the extent not otherwise Cash Collateralized pursuant to the terms hereof;

(g) seventh, to all Obligations constituting principal of the Revolver Loans;

(h) eighth, to all Obligations (other than Bank Product Indebtedness) constituting fees, indemnification, costs or expenses on FILO Loans owing to FILO Lenders;

(i) ninth, to all Obligations (other than Bank Product Indebtedness) constituting interest on FILO Loans;

(j) tenth, to all Obligations constituting principal of the FILO Loans;

(k) eleventh, to all Bank Product Indebtedness;

(l) twelfth, to all other Obligations; and

(m) last, to Borrowers (or any other Obligor which may be entitled thereto, as applicable).

Amounts shall be applied to each category of Obligations set forth above until full payment thereof and then to the next category. If amounts are insufficient to satisfy a category, they shall be applied on a pro rata basis among the Obligations in the category. Amounts distributed with respect to any Bank Product Indebtedness shall be the lesser of the applicable Bank Product Amount last reported to Agent or the actual Bank Product Indebtedness as calculated by the methodology reported to Agent for determining the amount due. Monies and proceeds obtained from an Obligor shall not be applied to its Excluded Swap Obligations, but appropriate adjustments shall be made with respect to amounts obtained from other Obligors to preserve the allocations in any applicable category. Agent shall have no obligation to calculate the amount to be distributed with respect to any Bank Product Indebtedness, but may rely upon written notice of the amount (setting forth a reasonably detailed calculation) from the applicable Secured Party. If a Secured Party fails to deliver such notice within five days following request by Agent, Agent may assume the amount to be distributed is the Bank Product Amount last reported to it. The allocations set forth in this Section (other than the tenth allocation to Borrowers or another Obligor) are solely to determine the rights and priorities of Agent and Lenders as among themselves, and may be changed by agreement among them without the consent of any Obligor. Except for the allocation to Borrowers or another Obligor set forth in clause (j) preceding, this Section is not for the benefit of or enforceable by any Borrower or other Obligor. Within the foregoing parameters, payments applied to Revolver Loans shall be applied first to General Revolver Loans and then to Distribution Revolver Loans.

5.5.3. Erroneous Application. Agent shall not be liable for any application of amounts made by it in good faith and, if any such application is subsequently determined to have been made in error, the sole recourse of any Lender or other Person to which such amount should have been made shall be to recover the amount from the Person that actually received it (and, if such amount was received by any Lender, such Lender hereby agrees to return it).

5.6. Application of Payments. Subject to Section 5.5 and Section 5.2, after the occurrence of a Cash Dominion Trigger Event and until such time as a Cash Dominion Trigger Event has not existed for 30 consecutive days, the ledger balance in the Dominion Accounts as of the end of a Business Day shall be applied to the Obligations (other than Bank Product Indebtedness) then outstanding at the beginning of the next Business Day. Each Obligor irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of any payments or Collateral proceeds, and agrees that Agent shall have the continuing, exclusive right to apply and reapply same against the Obligations, in such manner as Agent deems advisable, notwithstanding any entry by Agent in its records; provided that such amounts shall not be applied in repayment of FILO Loans unless all outstanding Revolver Loans have been repaid in full. If, as a result of Agent's receipt of Payment Items or proceeds of Collateral, a credit balance exists, the balance shall not accrue interest in favor of Borrowers or any other Obligor (unless otherwise separately and expressly agreed in writing by Agent on or after the date of this Agreement) and, subject to the requirements of Section 5.2, shall be made available to Borrowers (or another Obligor, as applicable) as long as no Event of Default exists.

5.7. Loan Account; Account Stated.

5.7.1. Loan Account. Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual and customary practices an account or accounts ("Loan Account") evidencing the Indebtedness of Borrowers resulting from each Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit from time to time, including the amount

of principal and interest payable and outstanding LC Obligations. Any failure of Agent to record anything in the Loan Account, or any error in doing so, shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligation of Borrowers to pay any amount owing hereunder. Agent may maintain a single Loan Account in the name of Borrower Agent, and each Borrower confirms that such arrangement shall have no effect on the joint and several character of its liability for the Obligations.

5.7.2. Entries Binding. Entries made in the Loan Account shall constitute presumptive evidence of the information contained therein. If any information contained in the Loan Account is provided to or inspected by any Person, then such information shall be presumed correct absent manifest error, except to the extent such Person notifies Agent in writing within 30 days after receipt or inspection that specific information is subject to dispute.

5.8. Taxes.

5.8.1. Payments Free of Taxes; Obligation to Withhold; Tax Payment.

(a) Any and all payments of Obligations by Obligors shall be made without deduction or withholding of any Taxes, except as required by Applicable Law. If Applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding based on information and documentation provided pursuant to Section 5.9.

(b) If the applicable Withholding Agent (as determined in its good faith discretion) is required by Applicable Law to withhold or deduct Taxes from any such payment, then (i) the applicable Withholding Agent shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law, and (ii) if the Taxes are Indemnified Taxes, then the sum payable by the applicable Obligor shall be increased as necessary so that, after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section) the Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made.

5.8.2. Payment of Other Taxes. Without limiting the foregoing, Borrowers shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law, or, at Agent's option, timely reimburse Agent for payment of, any Other Taxes.

5.8.3. Tax Indemnification.

(a) Each Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless, on a joint and several basis, each Recipient against any Indemnified Taxes (including those imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by a Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to a Recipient, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. Each Borrower shall make payment within 10 days after written demand for any amount or liability payable under this Section. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower Agent by a Lender or Issuing Bank (with a copy to Agent), or by Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of any Recipient, shall be presumed correct absent manifest error.

(b) Each Lender and Issuing Bank shall indemnify and hold harmless, on a several basis, (i) Agent against any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender or Issuing Bank (but only to the extent Borrowers have not already paid or reimbursed Agent therefor and without limiting Borrowers' obligation to do so), (ii) Agent and Obligors, as applicable, against any Taxes attributable to such Lender's failure to maintain a Participant register as required hereunder, and (iii) Agent and Obligors, as applicable, against any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender or Issuing Bank, in each case, that are payable or paid by Agent or an Obligor in connection with any Obligations, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. Each Lender and Issuing Bank shall make payment within 10 days after demand for any amount or liability payable under this Section. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender or Issuing Bank by Agent shall be presumed correct absent manifest error.

5.8.4. Evidence of Payments. If Agent or an Obligor pays any Taxes pursuant to this Section, then upon request, Agent shall deliver to Borrower Agent or Borrower Agent shall deliver to Agent, respectively, a copy of a receipt issued by the appropriate Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of any return required by Applicable Law to report such payment, or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Agent or Borrower Agent, as applicable.

5.8.5. Treatment of Certain Refunds. Unless required by Applicable Law, at no time shall Agent have any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a Lender or Issuing Bank, nor have any obligation to pay to any Lender or Issuing Bank, any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account of a Lender or Issuing Bank. If a Recipient determines in its discretion that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by Obligors or with respect to which an Obligor has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay Obligors an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by Obligors with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) incurred by such Recipient, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that Obligors agree, upon request by the Recipient, to repay the amount paid over to Obligors (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Recipient if the Recipient is required to repay such refund to the Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Recipient shall be required to pay any amount to Obligors if such payment would place the Recipient in a less favorable net after-Tax position than it 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. In no event shall Agent or any Recipient be required to make its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) available to any Obligor or other Person.

5.8.6. Survival. Each party's obligations under this Section 5.8 and under Section 5.9 shall survive the resignation or replacement of Agent or any assignment of rights by or replacement of a Lender or Issuing Bank, the termination of the Commitments, and the repayment, satisfaction, discharge or Full Payment of any Obligations.

5.8.7. Definitions. For purposes of this Section 5.8 and Section 5.9, the term "Lender" includes any Issuing Bank and the term "Applicable Law" includes FATCA.

5.9. Lender Tax Information

5.9.1. Status of Lenders. Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments of Obligations shall deliver to Borrower Agent and Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by Borrower Agent or Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Borrower Agent or Agent as will permit such payments to be made without or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by Borrower Agent or Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by Borrower Agent or Agent to enable it to determine whether such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such documentation (other than documentation described in Sections 5.9.2(a), (b) and (d)) shall not be required if a Lender reasonably believes delivery of the documentation would subject it to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice its legal or commercial position.

5.9.2. Documentation. Without limiting the foregoing, if any Borrower is a U.S. Person,

(a) Any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to Borrower Agent and Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender hereunder (and from time to time thereafter upon reasonable request of Borrower Agent or Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 (or any successor form), certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding Tax;

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

(i) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party, (A) with respect to payments of interest under any Credit Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN (or any successor form) or, if applicable, IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or any successor form) establishing an exemption from or reduction of U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the "interest" article of such tax treaty, and (B) with respect to other payments under the Credit Documents, IRS Form W-8BEN (or any successor form) or, if applicable, IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or any successor form) establishing an exemption from or reduction of U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the "business profits" or "other income" article of such tax treaty;

(ii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming that interest paid under the Credit Documents is exempt from U.S. federal withholding Tax because it is effectively connected with a United States trade or business of such Foreign Lender, executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI (or any successor form);

(iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (A) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a "bank" within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a "10 percent shareholder" of a Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a "controlled foreign corporation" described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code ("U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate"), and (B) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN-E or IRS Form W-8BEN, as applicable (or any successor forms) (with proper attachments as applicable); or

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

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

(d) if payment of an Obligation to a Lender would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code), such Lender shall deliver to Borrower Agent and Agent, at the time(s) prescribed by Applicable Law and otherwise as reasonably requested by Borrower Agent or Agent, such documentation prescribed by Applicable Law (including Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower Agent or Agent as may be necessary for it to comply with its obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with its obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (d), "FATCA" shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date hereof.

5.9.3. Redelivery of Documentation. If any form or certification previously delivered by a Lender pursuant to this Section expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, such Lender shall promptly update the form or certification or notify Borrowers and Agent in writing of its inability to do so.

5.10. Nature and Extent of Each Borrower's Liability.

5.10.1. Joint and Several Liability. Each Borrower agrees that it is jointly and severally liable for, and absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to Agent and Lenders the prompt payment and performance of, all Obligations (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, its Excluded Swap Obligations) and all agreements under the Credit Documents. Each Borrower agrees that its guaranty obligations hereunder constitute a continuing guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection, that such obligations shall not be discharged until Full Payment of the Obligations, and that such obligations are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of (a) the genuineness, validity, regularity, enforceability, subordination or any future modification of, or change in, any Obligations or Credit Document, or any other document, instrument or agreement to which any Obligor is or may become a party or liable; (b) the absence of any action to enforce this Agreement (including

this Section) or any other Credit Document, or any waiver, consent or indulgence of any kind by Agent or any Lender with respect thereto; (c) the existence, value or condition of, or failure to perfect a Lien or to preserve rights against, any security or guaranty for the Obligations or any action, or the absence of any action, by Agent or any Lender in respect thereof (including the release of any security or guaranty); (d) the insolvency of any Obligor; (e) any election by Agent or any Lender in an Insolvency Proceeding for the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code; (f) any borrowing or grant of a Lien by any other Borrower, as debtor-in-possession under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise; (g) the disallowance of any claims of Agent or any Lender against any Obligor for the repayment of any Obligations under Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise; or (h) any other action or circumstances that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, except Full Payment of all Obligations.

5.10.2. Waivers.

(a) Each Obligor expressly waives all rights that it may have now or in the future under any statute, at common law, in equity or otherwise, to compel Agent or Lenders to marshal assets or to proceed against any Obligor, other Person or security for the payment or performance of any Obligations before, or as a condition to, proceeding against such Obligor. It is agreed among each Obligor, Agent and Lenders that the provisions of this Section are of the essence of the transaction contemplated by the Credit Documents and that, but for such provisions, Agent and Lenders would decline to make Loans and issue Letters of Credit. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Credit Document, and except as set forth in Section 5.10.3 or after Full Payment of all Obligations, each Obligor expressly waives all rights at law or in equity to subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification or set off, as well as all defenses available to a surety, guarantor or accommodation co-obligor. Each Obligor acknowledges that its guaranty pursuant to this Section is necessary to the conduct and promotion of its business, and can be expected to benefit such business.

(b) Agent and (subject to the terms and provisions of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents) Lenders may, in their discretion, pursue such rights and remedies as they deem appropriate, including (upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default) realization upon Collateral by judicial foreclosure or non-judicial sale or enforcement, without affecting any rights and remedies under this Section 5.10. If, in the exercise of any rights or remedies, Agent or any Lender shall forfeit any of its rights or remedies, including its right to enter a deficiency judgment against any Obligor or any other Person, whether because of any Applicable Laws pertaining to "election of remedies" or otherwise, each Obligor consents to such action by Agent or such Lender and waives any claim based upon such action, even if the action may result in loss of any rights of subrogation that any Obligor might otherwise have had but for such action. Any election of remedies that results in denial or impairment of the right of Agent or any Lender to seek a deficiency judgment against any Obligor shall not impair any other Obligor's obligation to pay the full amount of the Obligations. Each Obligor waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies, such as nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to any security for the Obligations, even though that election of remedies destroys such Obligor's rights of subrogation against any other Person. If Agent bids at any foreclosure or trustee's sale or at any private sale, Agent may bid all or a portion of the Obligations and the amount of such bid need not be paid by Agent but shall be credited against the Obligations. The amount of the successful bid at any such sale, whether Agent or any other Person is the successful bidder, shall be conclusively deemed to be the fair market value of the Collateral, and the difference between the amount of such successful bid amount and the remaining balance of

the Obligations shall be conclusively deemed to be the amount of the Obligations guaranteed under this Section 5.10, notwithstanding that any present or future law or court decision may have the effect of reducing the amount of any deficiency claim to which Agent or any Lender might otherwise be entitled but for such bidding at any such sale.

5.10.3. Extent of Liability; Contribution.

(a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each Obligor's liability under this Section 5.10 shall be limited to the greater of (i) the amount of the Obligations (subject to each Obligor's right to contribution, indemnification and reimbursement payments described below), and (ii) such Obligor's Allocable Amount.

(b) If any Obligor makes a payment under this Section 5.10 of any Obligations (other than amounts for which such Obligor is primarily liable) (a "Guarantor Payment") that, taking into account all other Guarantor Payments previously or concurrently made by any other Obligor, exceeds the amount that such Obligor would otherwise have paid if each Obligor had paid the aggregate Obligations satisfied by such Guarantor Payments in the same proportion that such Obligor's Allocable Amount bore to the total Allocable Amounts of all Obligors, then such Obligor shall be entitled to receive contribution and indemnification payments from, and to be reimbursed by, each other Obligor for the amount of such excess, pro rata based upon their respective Allocable Amounts in effect immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment. The "Allocable Amount" for any Obligor shall be the maximum amount that could then be recovered from such Obligor under this Section 5.10 without rendering such payment voidable or avoidable under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state fraudulent transfer or conveyance act, or similar statute or common law.

(c) Nothing contained in this Section 5.10 shall limit the liability of any Borrower to pay Loans made directly or indirectly to that Borrower (including Loans advanced to any other Borrower and then re-loaned or otherwise transferred to, or for the benefit of, such Borrower), LC Obligations relating to Letters of Credit issued to support such Borrower's business, and all accrued interest, fees, expenses and other related Obligations with respect thereto, for which such Borrower shall be primarily liable for all purposes hereunder. Agent and Lenders shall have the right, at any time in their discretion upon giving at least 20 Business Days' prior written notice to Borrower Agent, to condition Loans and Letters of Credit upon a separate calculation of borrowing availability for each Borrower and to restrict the disbursement and use of such Loans and Letters of Credit to such Borrower.

(d) Each Obligor that is a Qualified ECP when its guaranty of or grant of Lien as security for a Swap Obligation becomes effective hereby jointly and severally, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide funds or other support to each Specified Obligor with respect to such Swap Obligation as may be needed by such Specified Obligor from time to time to honor all of its obligations under any Credit Documents in respect of such Swap Obligation (but, in each case, only up to the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering such Qualified ECP's obligations and undertakings under this Section 5.10 voidable under any applicable fraudulent transfer or conveyance act). The obligations and undertakings of each Qualified ECP under this Section shall remain in full force and effect until Full Payment of all Obligations. Each Obligor intends this Section to constitute, and this Section shall be deemed to constitute, a guarantee

of the obligations of, and a "keepwell, support or other agreement" for the benefit of, each Obligor for all purposes of the Commodity Exchange Act.

5.10.4. Joint Enterprise. Each Borrower has requested that Agent and Lenders make the credit facility established hereunder available to Borrowers on a combined basis, in order to finance Borrowers' business most efficiently and economically. Borrowers' business is a mutual and collective enterprise, and the successful operation of each Borrower is dependent upon the successful performance of the integrated group. Borrowers believe that consolidation of their credit facility will enhance the borrowing power of each Borrower and ease the administration of their relationship with Lenders, all to the mutual advantage of Borrowers. Borrowers acknowledge and agree that Agent's and Lenders' willingness to extend credit to Borrowers and to administer the Collateral on a combined basis, as set forth herein, is done solely as an accommodation to Borrowers and at Borrowers' request.

SECTION 7. COLLATERAL ADMINISTRATION

7.1. Borrowing Base Certificates. Prior to the occurrence of a Reporting Trigger Event (and after a Reporting Trigger Event has not existed for 30 consecutive days), Borrowers shall, by the 12^th Business Day of each month, deliver to Agent (and Agent shall promptly deliver same to Lenders) a Borrowing Base Certificate prepared as of the close of business of the previous month, and at such other times as Agent may reasonably request. After the occurrence of a Reporting Trigger Event and until such time as a Reporting Trigger Event has not existed for 30 consecutive days, Borrowers shall, on or before 10:00 p.m. on the second Business Day of each week, deliver to Agent (and Agent shall promptly deliver same to Lenders) a Borrowing Base Certificate prepared as of the close of business of Friday of the immediately preceding week, and at such other times as Agent may reasonably request. All calculations of Availability in any Borrowing Base Certificate shall originally be made by Borrowers and signed by a Senior Officer or the Controller of Borrower Agent or its general partner, provided that Agent may in its Permitted Discretion from time to time review and adjust any such calculation (a) to reflect its reasonable estimate of declines in value of any Collateral, due to collections received in the Dominion Account or otherwise; and (b) to the extent the calculation is not made in accordance with this Agreement or does not accurately reflect the Availability Reserve. Furthermore, Borrower shall, on or before the Inventory Structuring Transaction Commencement Date applicable to each Permitted Inventory Structuring Transaction, deliver to Agent (and Agent shall deliver to Lenders) an updated Borrowing Base Certificate prepared as of the close of business of the month immediately preceding such Inventory Structuring Transaction Commencement Date, adjusted to exclude from the

Borrowing Base (i) all Accounts of such Inventory Structuring Subsidiary owed by the applicable Inventory Structuring Counterparty, (ii) all Accounts of such Inventory Structuring Subsidiary which constitute or consist of insurance proceeds of any Hydrocarbon Inventory at any Inventory Structuring Location or any proceeds of such insurance proceeds, (iii) all Inventory of such Inventory Structuring Subsidiary at any Inventory Structuring Location, and (iv) without duplication of the foregoing, any cash or Cash Equivalents pledged to secured the obligations with respect to such Permitted Inventory Structuring Transaction. On or after the Inventory Structuring Transaction Termination Date with respect to any Permitted Inventory Structuring Transaction, Borrower Agent may deliver to Agent (and Agent shall deliver to Lenders) an updated Borrowing Base Certificate prepared as of the close of business of the immediately preceding month, adjusted to include in the Borrowing Base any Collateral previously excluded solely as a result of being subject to such Permitted Inventory Structuring Transaction, together with a certificate certifying that the Inventory Structuring Transaction Termination Date with respect to such Permitted Inventory Structuring Transaction has occurred, and such Collateral shall be eligible for inclusion in the Borrowing Base (subject to the requirements otherwise set forth in this Agreement).

7.2. Administration of Accounts, etc.

7.2.1. Records and Schedules of Accounts, etc. Each Obligor shall keep accurate and complete records of its Accounts, including all payments and collections thereon, and shall submit to Agent, on such periodic basis as Agent may reasonably request, a sales and collections report, in form reasonably satisfactory to Agent. Each Borrower shall also provide to Agent, on or before the 12^th Business Day of each month, (a) a detailed aged trial balance of all Accounts as of the end of the preceding month, specifying each Account's Account Debtor name, amount, invoice date and due date, showing any discount, allowance, credit, authorized return or dispute, and including such proof of delivery, copies of invoices and invoice registers, copies of related documents, repayment histories, status reports and other information as Agent may reasonably request, and (b) a listing of each Obligor's trade payables, specifying the trade creditor and balance due, and, at Agent's reasonable request, a detailed trade payable aging, all in form reasonably satisfactory to Agent. If Accounts in an aggregate face amount of $10,000,000 or more that were Eligible Accounts in the immediately preceding month cease to be Eligible Accounts, Borrowers shall notify Agent of such occurrence promptly (and in any event within one Business Day) after any Borrower has knowledge thereof. Agent shall provide such of the foregoing information as it deems material to Lenders promptly upon receipt thereof from Borrowers.

7.2.2. Account Verification. Whether or not a Default or Event of Default exists, Agent shall have the right at any time, in the name of Agent, any designee of Agent or any Borrower to verify the validity, amount or any other matter relating to any Accounts of Borrowers by mail, telephone or otherwise. Borrowers shall cooperate fully with Agent in an effort to facilitate and promptly conclude any such verification process.

7.2.3. Maintenance of Dominion Account. Obligors (other than Obligors which do not have any Accounts) shall maintain Dominion Accounts pursuant to lockbox or other arrangements reasonably acceptable to Agent. Obligors shall obtain an agreement (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent) from each lockbox servicer and Dominion Account bank, establishing Agent's control over and Lien in the lockbox or Dominion Account, requiring immediate deposit of all remittances received in the lockbox to a Dominion Account and, if such Dominion Account is not maintained with Bank of America (or any Person succeeding it as Agent hereunder), requiring immediate transfer of all funds in the Dominion Account upon notification by Agent (which notification shall not be given until the occurrence and during the continuance of a Cash Dominion Trigger Event and will be revoked if a Cash Dominion Trigger Event ceases to exist for 30 consecutive days) to a Dominion Account maintained with Bank of America (or any Person succeeding it as

Agent hereunder), and waiving offset rights of such servicer or bank against any funds in the lockbox or Dominion Account, except offset rights for customary administrative charges. Neither Agent nor Lenders assume any responsibility to Obligors for any lockbox arrangement or Dominion Account, including any claim of accord and satisfaction or release with respect to any Payment Items accepted by any bank.

7.2.4. Proceeds of Collateral. Obligors shall request in writing and otherwise take all reasonable steps to direct that all payments on Accounts or otherwise relating to Collateral (except as provided in Section 7.5.2(b)) are made directly to a Dominion Account (or a lockbox relating to a Dominion Account). If any Obligor receives cash or Payment Items with respect to any Collateral (except as provided in Section 7.5.2(b)), it shall hold same in trust for Agent and promptly (not later than the next Business Day if a Cash Dominion Trigger Event then exists, or not later than the second Business Day after receipt if no Cash Dominion Trigger Event then exists) deposit same into a Dominion Account. Except as provided in and subject to Section 5.6 (relating to the application of such amounts after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Cash Dominion Trigger Event and until such time as a Cash Dominion Trigger Event has not existed for 30 consecutive days), all amounts in the Dominion Accounts shall be transferred to such Deposit Account(s) as Borrower Agent or the applicable Obligor may request and designate from time to time.

7.2.5. Bank Products. In order to facilitate the administration of the Loans, Obligors will maintain Bank of America (or any Person succeeding it as Agent hereunder) or one or more other Lenders as their principal depository bank or banks, including for the maintenance of operating, administrative, cash management, collection activity and other deposit accounts for the conduct of Obligors' business.

7.3. Administration of Inventory.

7.3.1. Records and Reports of Inventory. Each Obligor shall keep accurate and complete records of its Inventory, including costs and daily withdrawals and additions, and shall submit to Agent inventory reports in form reasonably satisfactory to Agent, on such periodic basis as Agent may reasonably request but in no event more frequently than once per week if no Default or Event of Default exists. Each Borrower shall conduct a physical inventory at least once per calendar year (and on a more frequent basis if requested by Agent when an Event of Default exists) and periodic cycle counts consistent with historical practices, and, at Agent's request, shall provide to Agent a report based on the latest such physical inventory. Agent may participate in and observe, at its reasonable request, any physical inventory count. Agent shall provide such of the foregoing information as it deems material to Lenders promptly upon receipt thereof from Borrowers.

7.3.2. Returns of Inventory. No Borrower shall return any Eligible Inventory, Eligible In-Transit Inventory or Eligible LC Backed Future Inventory to a supplier, vendor or other Person, whether for cash, credit or otherwise, unless (a) such return is either in the Ordinary Course of Business or consistent with prudent business practices as may be consented to by Agent in its Permitted Discretion; (b) no Default, Event of Default or Overadvance exists or would result therefrom; and (c) Agent is promptly notified if the aggregate Value of all such Inventory returned in any month exceeds $25,000,000.

7.3.3. Inventory Structuring Transactions. Borrowers shall, at all times on and after the Inventory Structuring Transaction Commencement Date with respect to any Permitted Inventory Structuring Transaction and on or prior to the Inventory Structuring Transaction Termination Date applicable to such Permitted Inventory Structuring Transaction, ensure that all Inventory Structuring Collateral is (a) located where none of the Inventory of any Obligor not party to such Inventory Structuring Transaction is located, (b) stored in one or more tanks or other storage facilities or storage

units wherein none of the Inventory of any Obligor not party to such Inventory Structuring Transaction is stored, and (c) otherwise not comingled with the Inventory of any Obligor not party to such Inventory Structuring Transaction; provided, however, that Inventory that is in-transit shall not be required to comply with clause (a) or clause (b) preceding.

7.4. Administration of Deposit Accounts. Schedule 7.4 sets forth all Deposit Accounts maintained by Obligors as of the Closing Date, including all Dominion Accounts. Except as may be otherwise agreed by Agent, each Obligor shall take all actions necessary to establish Agent's control (for the benefit of Secured Parties and under the terms and condition set forth herein) of each such Deposit Account, other than (a) the "PP&E Proceeds Account" (as such term is defined in the Security Agreement), (b) one or more accounts exclusively used for payroll, payroll taxes or employee benefits, and (c) other accounts containing not more than $5,000,000 in aggregate amount at any time (collectively, the "Excluded Deposit Accounts"); provided that, to the extent that any such Deposit Account (other than an Excluded Deposit Account) held by any Obligor on the Closing Date is not subject to a Deposit Account Control Agreement previously delivered pursuant to the Existing Credit Agreement and which remains in full force and effect, such Obligor shall deliver a Deposit Account Control Agreement with respect to such Deposit Account within thirty (30) days (or such longer period as Agent may reasonably agree) of the Closing Date. Each Obligor shall be the sole account holder of each Deposit Account and shall not allow any other Person (other than Agent for the benefit of Secured Parties and under the terms and condition set forth herein) to have control over a Deposit Account or any Property deposited therein. Each Obligor shall promptly notify Agent of any opening or closing of a Deposit Account (other than an Excluded Account) and, upon Agent's written request, will amend Schedule 7.4 to reflect same.

7.5. General Provisions.

7.5.1. Location of Collateral. All tangible items of Collateral, other than Inventory in transit or on consignment, shall at all times be kept by Obligors at the business locations set forth in Schedule 7.5.1, except that Obligors may (a) make sales or other Dispositions of Collateral in accordance with Section 9.2.5, and (b) keep Collateral at one or more other locations in the United States not set forth in Schedule 7.5.1 which are specified by Borrower Agent upon ten days prior written notice to Agent or, in the case of Inventory having a Value not to exceed $10,000,000 in aggregate amount, other locations in the United States specified by Borrowers in the Borrowing Base Certificate delivered to Agent on the 12th Business Day after the end of the month during which such Inventory initially became kept at such other location. All Inventory included in the Aggregate Borrowing Base (other than (i) Inventory in transit or on consignment and (ii) Inventory with a Value of less than $100,000 at any location and less than $2,500,000 in the aggregate) kept at a location which is not owned by an Obligor or which is within the possession or control of any Person other than an Obligor shall be either subject to a Lien Waiver executed by the owner or other Person in possession or control of the location in question or, in lieu thereof, subject to a Rent and Costs Reserve established by Agent in its Permitted Discretion.

7.5.2. Insurance of Collateral; Condemnation Proceeds.

(a) If any Obligor fails to provide and pay for any insurance required by this Agreement, Agent may, at its option, but shall not be required to, procure the insurance and charge Obligors therefor. Each Obligor agrees to deliver to Agent, promptly as rendered, written notice (including copies of all related information) of all claims in excess of $15,000,000 made to its insurance providers, other than those set forth on Schedule 7.5.2.

Maintain in full force and effect insurance with respect to its Property and its businesses (including worker's compensation insurance, liability insurance, property insurance and business interruption insurance) with insurers rated A‑ or better by A.M. Best's Key Rating Guide (or any successor thereto), in such amounts, covering such risks and

liabilities and with such deductibles or self-insurance retentions as are deemed sufficient for Consolidated Parties by the management of Borrower Agent in the exercise of reasonable business judgment and reasonably acceptable to Agent, provided that such insurance with respect to the Property of Obligors shall cover casualty, hazard, public liability, theft, malicious mischief and such other risks, in such amounts and with such endorsements, as are reasonably satisfactory to Agent. From time to time upon Agent's request, Obligors shall deliver the originals or certified copies of their insurance policies to Agent. Agent shall be named as lender loss payee or mortgagee, as its interest may appear, and/or additional insured with respect to any such insurance providing coverage in respect of any Collateral, and (unless otherwise agreed by Agent in its Permitted Discretion) each provider of any such insurance shall agree, by endorsement upon the policy or policies issued by it or by independent instruments furnished to Agent, that it will give Agent 30 days prior written notice before any such policy or policies shall be altered in a manner materially adverse to the insured or Agent and Lenders or canceled (but ten days prior written notice of cancellation for non‑payment of premiums) and that the interests of Agent shall not be impaired or invalidated by any act or neglect of any Obligor or by the occupation of the premises for purposes more hazardous than are permitted by the policy. All proceeds under each policy of insurance with respect to Collateral shall be payable to Agent and (without duplication) the proceeds under each general liability policy and each excess liability policy up to the amount necessary to reimburse Agent for any out‑of‑pocket losses, claims, damages and related expenses actually suffered by Agent as a result of its relationship with Obligors under the Credit Documents shall be payable to Agent, provided, however, that, if no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and subject to Section 7.5.2(b), (a) any proceeds of insurance for Collateral (other than proceeds from general liability, workers' compensation or D&O insurance) shall be deposited into a Springing Dominion Account (if no Cash Dominion Trigger Event then exists) or into a Dominion Account (if a Cash Dominion Trigger Event then exists), and (b) if no Cash Dominion Trigger Event then exists, such proceeds may be used by Obligors in the Ordinary Course of Business, including the replacement of Collateral. Proceeds from any business interruption insurance may be used by Obligors in the Ordinary Course of Business. The Borrowers will, and will cause each Subsidiary to, procure and maintain flood insurance on all Real Estate of Calumet Montana (other than pipeline rights of way or pipeline easements) subject to a Refinery Mortgage located in a “Special Flood Hazard Area” as designated on maps prepared by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, on such terms and in such amounts as required by the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended from time to time, or as otherwise reasonably required by the Agent.

9.1.8. Compliance with Laws and Material Contractual Obligations. (a) Comply in all material respects with the requirements of all Applicable Laws (including, without limitation, Anti-Corruption Laws and Anti-Terrorism Laws), all Contractual Obligations, and all orders, writs, injunctions and decrees applicable to it or to its business or Property, except (other than failure to comply with Anti-Corruption Laws or Anti-Terrorism Laws) in such instances in which (i) such requirement of Applicable Law, Contractual Obligation, or order, writ, injunction or decree is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted, or (ii) the failure to comply therewith could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; and (b) maintain all Governmental Approvals necessary to the ownership of its Properties or conduct of its business, unless failure to comply (other than failure to comply with Anti-Corruption Laws or Anti-Terrorism Laws) or maintain could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

9.1.9. Books and Records. (a) Maintain proper books of record and account, in which full, true and correct entries in conformity with GAAP, in all material respects, consistently applied shall be made of all financial transactions and matters involving the assets and business of Obligors and their Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be; and (b) maintain such books of record and account in material conformity with all applicable requirements of any Governmental Authority having regulatory jurisdiction over such Obligor or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be.

9.1.10. Inspection Rights.

(a) Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 9.1.10(b), permit representatives and independent contractors of Agent and each Lender to visit and inspect any of its Properties, to examine its corporate, financial and operating records, and make copies thereof or abstracts therefrom, and to discuss its affairs, finances and Accounts with its directors, officers and independent public accountants, all at the expense of Borrowers and at such reasonable times during normal business hours and as often as may be reasonably desired, upon reasonable advance notice to Borrowers; provided, however, that when an Event of Default exists Agent or any Lender (or any of their respective representatives or independent contractors) may do any of the foregoing at the expense of Borrowers at any time during normal business hours and without advance notice. Obligors agree that Agent, and its representatives, may conduct an annual audit of the Collateral, at the expense of Obligors.

(b) Reimburse Agent for all reasonable charges, costs and expenses of Agent (consistent with those charged by Agent to its other similarly situated customers) in connection with (i) examinations of any Obligor's books and records or any other financial or Collateral matters as Agent deems appropriate, up to one time per Loan Year or, while Availability is below 40% (but is equal to or greater than (x) 20% at any time that the Refinery Asset Borrowing Base Component is greater than $0 and (y) 12.5% at any time that the Refinery Asset Borrowing Base Component is equal to $0) of the Aggregate Borrowing Base then in effect, up to two times per Loan Year until such condition no longer applies, or, while Availability is below 12.5% of the Aggregate Borrowing Base then in effect (or 20% of the Aggregate Borrowing Base then in effect at any time the Refinery Asset Borrowing Base Component is greater than $0), up to three times per Loan Year until such condition no longer applies; (ii) appraisals of Inventory up to one time per Loan Year or, while Availability is below 40% (but is equal to or greater than (x) 20% at any time that the Refinery Asset Borrowing Base Component is greater than $0 and (y) 12.5% at any time that the Refinery Asset Borrowing Base Component is equal to $0) of the Aggregate Borrowing Base then in effect, up to two times per Loan Year until such condition no longer applies, or, while Availability is below 12.5% of the Aggregate Borrowing Base then in effect (or 20% of the Aggregate Borrowing Base then in effect at any time the Refinery Asset Borrowing Base Component is greater than $0), up to three times per Loan Year until such condition no longer applies and (iii) while the Refinery Asset Borrowing Base Component is greater than $0, appraisals of the Refinery Fixed Assets up to one time per Loan Year for any Loan Year; provided, however, that if an examination or appraisal is initiated during a Default or Event of Default, all charges, costs and expenses therefor shall be reimbursed by Borrowers without regard to such limits. Subject to the foregoing, Borrowers shall pay Agent's standard charges ($1,100 per day as of the Closing Date) for each day that an employee of Agent or its Affiliates is engaged in any examination activities, and shall pay the standard charges of Agent's internal appraisal group. Unless a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no more than three such examinations or three such appraisals shall be conducted by Agent during any Loan Year, provided that this sentence shall not be construed to limit Agent's right to conduct examinations or to obtain appraisals at any time in its discretion at any time after the occurrence and during the continuation of a Default or an Event of Default, nor to use third parties for such purposes.

9.1.11. Use of Proceeds. Use the proceeds (a) of General Revolver Loans made pursuant to Section 2.1.1 solely (i) to refinance Borrowers' obligations under the Existing Credit Agreement, (ii) to pay fees and transaction expenses associated with the closing of this Agreement, (iii) to pay

Obligations in accordance with this Agreement and (iv) for working capital, capital expenditures and other lawful corporate purposes of Obligors, including Permitted Acquisitions, and (b) of Distribution Revolver Loans made pursuant to Section 2.1.1 (not to exceed the Maximum Distribution Revolver Loans Amount at any time outstanding) solely for the purpose of making Restricted Payments permitted by Section 9.2.6 hereof, in each case, not in contravention of any Applicable Law (including, without limitation, Anti-Corruption Laws and Anti-Terrorism Laws) or of any Credit Document; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the proceeds of the Revolver Loans made on the First Amendment Effective Date (the “Refinery Loans”) shall be used solely for the purpose of repaying or repurchasing all or a portion of the 6.50% unsecured senior notes due 2021 issued pursuant to the 2014 Senior Notes Indenture (as defined in the definition of “Senior Notes Indentures”), or otherwise satisfying and discharging the 2014 Senior Notes Indenture, and paying a reasonable premium or other reasonable amount, and fees and expenses reasonably incurred, in connection with such refinancing, as soon as practicable and in any event within 30 days following the First Amendment Effective Date; provided further that upon such repayment or repurchase, all such senior notes and all other obligations under such indenture, shall be repaid or refinanced in full. If the events described in the provisos in the immediately preceding sentence are not satisfied, then on such 30^th day following the First Amendment Effective Date, Borrowers shall prepay the Revolver Loans in an amount that, together with all other prepayments since the First Amendment Effective Date, equals the amount of the Refinery Loan. Borrowers shall not, directly or indirectly, use any Letter of Credit or the proceeds of any Loan, nor use, lend, contribute or otherwise make available any Letter of Credit or proceeds of any Loan, to any Subsidiary, joint venture partner or other Person, (A) to fund any activities of or business with any Person, or in any Designated Jurisdiction, that, at the time of issuance of the Letter of Credit or funding of the Loan, is the target of any Sanction, except for such activities or business that complies with Sanctions that by their terms permit the conduct of business on certain terms with any such Person and the Borrowers are complying therewith, (B) in any manner that will result in a violation of Sanctions by any Person (including any Secured Party or other individual or entity participating in the transaction) or (C) in any manner that could reasonably be expected to result in a violation of any Anti-Corruption Laws.

9.1.12. Additional Borrowers or Guarantors; Acquired Assets.

(a) Joinder as Borrower or Guarantor. Promptly notify Agent upon any Person becoming a Subsidiary (whether in connection with a Permitted Acquisition, another permitted Investment or otherwise), excluding any Person that is an Immaterial Subsidiary but including any Person that is initially an Immaterial Subsidiary and subsequently ceases to be an Immaterial Subsidiary, and shall, if such Person is not a Foreign Subsidiary, a Foreign Subsidiary Holdco or an Unrestricted Subsidiary and subject to the proviso below, cause it (a) to become a party to this Agreement as a joint and several "Borrower" by executing a joinder agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent, and (b) to execute and deliver such other Collateral Documents, and to take such other actions as Agent shall reasonably require to evidence and perfect a Lien in favor of Agent, for the benefit of Secured Parties, on the assets of such Person of the type constituting Collateral, including delivery of resolutions, organizational documents and legal opinions in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent; provided, that (i) in lieu of the foregoing, Borrowers may elect to cause such Person to execute and deliver a Guaranty and such other documents, instruments and agreements and to take such other actions as Agent shall require to evidence and perfect a Lien in favor of Agent, for the benefit of Secured Parties, on the assets of such Person of the type constituting Collateral, including delivery of such resolutions, organizational documents and legal opinions, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent and (ii) Obligors shall not be obligated to cause any such Subsidiary which is acquired pursuant to, or created to facilitate, an Acquisition to execute or deliver

any such joinder agreement, Guaranty or other documents, instruments or agreements until 30 days (or such longer period as Agent may otherwise agree) after such Subsidiary initially became a Restricted Subsidiary (provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Property of such Restricted Subsidiary shall not be potentially eligible for inclusion in the Aggregate Borrowing Base unless and until such a joinder agreement and all such other documents, instruments or agreements and other items required under this Agreement (including, without limitation, the items set forth in Section 9.1.12(b) below) are appropriately executed and/or delivered). Nothing contained herein shall require MLP General Partner to become a Borrower or Guarantor. Furthermore, nothing contained in the Credit Documents shall require any Borrower or Guarantor to pledge as Collateral more than 65% of the total outstanding voting Equity Interests of any Foreign Subsidiary that is a CFC or any Foreign Subsidiary Holdco.

(b) Effect on Borrowing Base. In the event (i) any Person becomes a Borrower (the "new Borrower") or (ii) any Borrower or Restricted Subsidiary makes an Acquisition and, in each case, Borrower Agent or Borrowers seek to include such assets of the new Borrower or such assets acquired in connection with such Acquisition (the "acquired assets") in the Aggregate Borrowing Base, Agent may require (and shall require to the extent that the assets which are Collateral of such new Borrower or the purchase price of, or allocated to, such acquired assets (which assets are Collateral) is $50,000,000 or more), as a condition to including such assets in the Aggregate Borrowing Base, a satisfactory appraisal of such assets, a field examination of such assets and other due diligence materials with respect to such assets and any such new Borrower, in each case to be conducted at the expense of Borrowers. If such appraisal, field examination and/or due diligence is required by Agent, then, unless otherwise agreed by Agent, until such time as such appraisal, field exam and other due diligence is complete, the assets of such new Borrower or the acquired assets, as applicable, will not be eligible for inclusion in the Aggregate Borrowing Base; provided, however, that, at the option of Borrower Agent, assets having an aggregate Value not to exceed 10% of the Aggregate Borrowing Base on the date of exercise of such option, by Borrower Agent's giving of written notice thereof to Agent, may be included in the Aggregate Borrowing Base upon completion of an appraisal acceptable to Agent in its Permitted Discretion and without completion of a field examination or other due diligence (other than an appraisal). For the avoidance of doubt, no assets of any Person other than a Borrower shall be included in the Aggregate Borrowing Base.

9.1.13. Certain Pledged Assets. Each Obligor will (i) cause all of its owned and leased personal and real Property of the type constituting Collateral to be subject at all times to perfected, first priority Liens in favor of Agent, for the benefit of Secured Parties, to secure the Obligations pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Collateral Documents, or, with respect to such Property acquired after the Closing Date, such other additional security documents as Agent may reasonably request, subject in any case to Permitted Liens, and (ii) deliver such other documentation as Agent may reasonably request to create, perfect and maintain the effectiveness and required priority of the Lien intended to be created by the Collateral Documents, including appropriate UCC-1 financing statements, appraisals, landlord's waivers, certified resolutions and other organizational and authorizing documents of such Person, favorable customary opinions of counsel to such Person (which shall cover, among other things, the legality, validity, binding effect and enforceability of the documentation referred to above and the perfection of Agent's Liens thereunder) and other items of the types required to be delivered pursuant to Section 6.1(c), all in form, content and scope reasonably satisfactory to Agent, provided that, with respect to Inventory that is subject to Liens of landlords, carriers, warehousemen, processors or bailees or the like, Agent shall, upon the request of Borrower Agent and in lieu of first priority Liens thereon in favor of Agent, establish Availability

Reserves against the Aggregate Borrowing Base for such Liens consistent with the terms of this Agreement.

9.1.14. Landlord and Storage Agreements. Upon written request, provide Agent with copies of all existing relevant agreements, and promptly after execution thereof provide Agent with copies of all future relevant agreements, between any Obligor and any landlord, carrier, warehouseman, processor or bailee or the like that owns any premises at which any Collateral included in the Aggregate Borrowing Base and having a Value in excess of $5,000,000 is located.

9.1.15. Bank Products. In order to facilitate the administration of the Loans, Obligors will maintain Bank of America or one or more other Lenders as their principal depository bank or banks, including for the maintenance of operating, administrative, cash management, collection activity and other deposit accounts for the conduct of Obligors' business.

(ii) with respect to any Disposition or series of related Dispositions that involves properties or assets having a fair market value greater than or equal to $10,000,000 (other than certain Dispositions disclosed to Agent in writing prior to the Closing Date and consummated on terms reasonably acceptable to Agent), at least 75% (or, in the case of any sale or other Disposition of any Property constituting Collateral, 100% with respect to such Collateral) of the consideration

(vii) no Default or Event of Default exists at the time thereof or will arise as a result thereof; and

(viii) with respect to any Disposition of the Refinery Assets, immediately after giving Pro Forma effect to such Disposition, (A) an Overadvance would not exist, and (B) the sum of (1) cash on hand in Restricted Accounts of Obligors plus (2) Availability shall be at least equal to the sum of (x) the greater of (i) (a) 25% of the Aggregate Borrowing Base then in effect at any time that the Refinery Asset Borrowing Base Component is greater than $0 and (b) 15% of the Aggregate Borrowing Base then in effect at any time that the Refinery Asset Borrowing Base Component is equal to $0 and (ii) $60,000,000 (which amount is subject to increase as provided in Section 1.4) plus (y) the amount of FILO Loans outstanding.

provided, further, however, that (x) any sales or Dispositions (including sales or Dispositions of Collateral) pursuant to Section 9.2.5(d) shall not be required to comply with the requirements referred to in clause (ii) preceding, (y) any Disposition pursuant to Section 9.2.5(g) shall not be required to comply with clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi), (vii) and (viii) preceding if such Disposition is an Involuntary Disposition and (z) any Disposition pursuant to Section 9.2.5(h) shall not (1) be required to comply with the requirements referred to in clauses (ii), (iv), (v), (vi) and (viii) preceding and (2) shall not be required to comply with clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi) and (viii) preceding if the total book value of the Equipment and fixtures disposed of does not exceed $5,000,000 in any calendar year.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Borrower may make one or more Dispositions of its Accounts from time to time if (but only if) each of the following requirements is satisfied with respect to such Disposition, in which case such Disposition shall constitute a "Permitted Accounts Transaction":

(E) no Default or Event of Default will exist at the time of any such Disposition of Accounts or will arise as a result thereof; and

(d) so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of any action described below or would result therefrom:

(i) MLP Parent may, and may incur obligations to, purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire its Equity Interests with the proceeds received from the substantially concurrent issue of new units of the Equity Interests of MLP Parent;

If a Restricted Subsidiary of MLP Parent is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary pursuant to Section 9.4.1 (including, without limitation, any MLP Subsidiary or Exclusive Entity), the aggregate fair market value of all outstanding Investments owned by MLP Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the former Restricted Subsidiary so designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary will be deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of the designation that must comply with Section 9.2.2 hereof.

9.4.3. Effect of Designation of Unrestricted Subsidiaries. With respect to each Unrestricted Subsidiary (including, without limitation, any MLP Subsidiary or Exclusive Entity), beginning on the effective date of such designation and continuing for so long as such Subsidiary is an Unrestricted Subsidiary:

(a) such Unrestricted Subsidiary will not be an Obligor (or a Borrower or Guarantor) for purposes of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, and will not be

obligated under any Credit Document, including without limitation any representation, warranty, covenant or Event of Default herein or in any other Credit Document;

(b) the results of operations, Fixed Charges and Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary will not be taken into account for purposes of determining any financial ratio or covenant contained in this Agreement;

The Board of Directors of MLP Parent may at any date designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary (including, without limitation, any MLP Subsidiary or Exclusive Entity) to be a Restricted Subsidiary of MLP Parent; provided that (a) such designation will be deemed on such date to be (i) an incurrence of Indebtedness by such Restricted Subsidiary of any outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary and (ii) an Investment by such Restricted Subsidiary in the amount of any outstanding Investment of such Unrestricted Subsidiary in any third party, and (b) such designation will only be permitted if (i) such deemed incurrence of Indebtedness is permitted under Section 9.2.3, calculated on a pro forma basis as if such designation had occurred at the beginning of the four Fiscal Quarter reference period, (ii) such deemed Investment is permitted under Section 9.2.2, calculated on a pro forma basis as if such designation had occurred at the beginning of the four Fiscal Quarter reference period, and (iii) no Default or Event of Default would be in existence following such designation.

(b) Separate Name; Separate Credit. Obligors shall (i) conduct their respective businesses in their respective own names or in the names of their respective Restricted Subsidiaries and not in the name of any Unrestricted Subsidiary (including, without limitation, any MLP Subsidiary or Exclusive Entity), and (ii) generally hold themselves as entities separate from the Unrestricted Subsidiaries. Obligors shall cause Unrestricted Subsidiaries to, (A) conduct their respective businesses in their respective own names or in

the names of their respective Subsidiaries and not in the name of any Obligor or their Restricted Subsidiaries, and (B) generally hold themselves as entities separate from Obligors and their Restricted Subsidiaries. Obligors shall, and shall cause Unrestricted Subsidiaries to, (1) pay their respective obligations and liabilities from their respective own funds (whether on hand or borrowed), and (2) maintain adequate capital in light of their respective business operations.

(c) Separate Formalities. Obligors shall cause each Unrestricted Subsidiary (including, without limitation, any MLP Subsidiary or Exclusive Entity) to observe all limited liability company, partnership or other entity formalities and other formalities required by their respective organizational documents and Applicable Law.

(c) permit any MLP Subsidiary to (i) own any capital stock of or other Equity Interests in any Obligor, (ii) hold any Indebtedness of any Obligor or (iii) hold any Lien on any Property of any Obligor.

For the avoidance of doubt, an Exclusive Entity is not an MLP Subsidiary for purposes of this Section 9.5 (or otherwise, as provided in this Agreement).

In addition, or if any other Event of Default exists, Agent may in its discretion (and shall upon written direction of Required Lenders) do any one or more of the following from time to time:

(a) declare any Obligations (other than Bank Product Indebtedness) immediately due and payable, whereupon they shall be due and payable without diligence, presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by each Obligor to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law;

(b) terminate, reduce or condition any Commitment, or make any adjustment to the Aggregate Borrowing Base, Borrowing Base or FILO Borrowing Base;

(c) require Obligors to Cash Collateralize all LC Obligations, Bank Product Indebtedness and other Obligations that are contingent or not yet due and payable, and, if

Obligors fail promptly to deposit such Cash Collateral, Agent may (and shall upon the direction of Required Lenders) advance the required Cash Collateral as Revolver Loans (whether or not an Overadvance exists or is created thereby, or the conditions in Section 6 are satisfied); and

(d) exercise any other rights or remedies afforded under any agreement, by Applicable Law, at equity or otherwise, including the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC. Such rights and remedies include the rights to (i) take possession of any Collateral; (ii) require Obligors to assemble Collateral, at Borrowers' expense, and make it available to Agent at a place designated by Agent; (iii) enter any premises where Collateral is located and store Collateral on such premises until sold (and if the premises are owned or leased by an Obligor, Obligors agree not to charge for such storage); and (iv) sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral in its then condition, or after any further manufacturing or processing thereof, at public or private sale, with such notice as may be required by Applicable Law, in lots or in bulk, at such locations, all as Agent, in its discretion, deems advisable. Each Obligor agrees that 10 days' notice of any proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral by Agent shall be reasonable. Agent shall have the right to conduct such sales on any Obligor's premises, without charge, and such sales may be adjourned from time to time in accordance with Applicable Law. Agent shall have the right to sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any Collateral for cash, credit or any combination thereof, and Agent may purchase any Collateral at public or, if permitted by Applicable Law, private sale and, in lieu of actual payment of the purchase price, may credit bid and set off the amount of such price against the Obligations.

10.3. License. Agent is hereby granted an irrevocable, non-exclusive license, so long as an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, or other right to use, license or sub-license (without payment of royalty or other compensation to any Person) any or all Intellectual Property of Obligors, computer hardware and software, trade secrets, brochures, customer lists, promotional and advertising materials, labels, packaging materials and other Property, in advertising for sale, marketing, selling, collecting, completing manufacture of, or otherwise exercising any rights or remedies with respect to, any Collateral; provided, however, that the IP License shall control in the event of any conflict between this Section and the terms and provisions of the IP License. Each Obligor's rights and interests under Intellectual Property shall inure to Agent's benefit.

10.4. Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Agent, each Lender, Issuing Bank and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by Agent, such Lender, Issuing Bank or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of a Borrower or any other Obligor against any and all of the Obligations of such Borrower or such Obligor now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Credit Document to Agent, such Lender, Issuing Bank or such Affiliate, irrespective of whether or not Agent, such Lender, Issuing Bank or such Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Credit Document and although such Obligations of such Borrower or such Obligor may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of Agent, such Lender, Issuing Bank or such Affiliate different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of Agent, each Lender, Issuing Bank and each of their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that Agent, such Lender, Issuing Bank or their respective Affiliates may have. Agent, each Lender, Issuing Bank and each of their respective Affiliates agree to notify in writing Borrower Agent and Agent promptly after any such setoff and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

10.5. Remedies Cumulative; No Waiver.

10.5.1. Cumulative Rights. All covenants, conditions, provisions, warranties, guaranties, indemnities and other undertakings of Obligors under the Credit Documents are cumulative and not in derogation or substitution of each other. In particular, the rights and remedies of Agent and Lenders under the Credit Documents are cumulative, may be exercised at any time and from time to time, concurrently or in any order, and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies that Agent and Lenders may have, whether under any agreement, by law, at equity or otherwise.

10.5.2. Waivers. The failure or delay of Agent or any Lender to require strict performance by any Obligor with any terms of the Credit Documents, or to exercise any rights or remedies with respect to Collateral or otherwise, shall not operate as a waiver thereof nor as establishment of a course of dealing. All rights and remedies shall continue in full force and effect until Full Payment of all Obligations. No modification of any terms of any Credit Documents (including any waiver thereof) shall be effective, unless such modification is specifically provided in a writing directed to Obligors and executed by Agent or the requisite Lenders, and such modification shall be applicable only to the matter specified. No waiver of any Default or Event of Default shall constitute a waiver of any other Default or Event of Default that may exist at such time, unless expressly stated. If Agent or any Lender accepts performance by any Obligor under any Credit Documents in a manner other than that specified therein, or during any Default or Event of Default, or if Agent or any Lender shall delay or exercise any right or remedy under any Credit Documents, such acceptance, delay or exercise shall not operate to waive any Default or Event of Default nor to preclude exercise of any other right or remedy. It is expressly acknowledged by Obligors that any failure to satisfy a financial covenant on a measurement date shall not be cured or remedied by satisfaction of such covenant on a subsequent date.

SECTION 11. AGENT

11.1. Appointment, Authority and Duties of Agent.

11.1.1. Appointment and Authority. Each Lender appoints and designates Bank of America as Agent under all Credit Documents. Agent may, and each Secured Party authorizes Agent to, enter into all Credit Documents to which Agent is intended to be a party and accept all Collateral Documents, for Agent's benefit and the Pro Rata benefit of Secured Parties. Each Lender agrees that any action taken by Agent or Required Lenders in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Documents, and the exercise by Agent or Required Lenders of any rights or remedies set forth therein, together with all other powers reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized by and binding upon all Lenders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Agent shall have the sole and exclusive authority to (a) act as the disbursing and collecting agent for Lenders with respect to all payments and collections arising in connection with the Credit Documents; (b) execute and deliver as Agent each Credit Document, including any intercreditor or subordination agreement, and accept delivery of each Credit Document from any Obligor or other Person; (c) act as collateral agent for Secured Parties for purposes of perfecting and administering Liens under the Credit Documents, and for all other purposes stated therein; (d) manage, supervise or otherwise deal with Collateral; and (e) take any Enforcement Action or otherwise exercise all rights and remedies given to Agent with respect to any Collateral under the Credit Documents, Applicable Law or otherwise. The duties of Agent shall be ministerial and administrative in nature, and Agent shall not have a fiduciary relationship with any Lender, Secured Party, Participant or other Person, by reason of any Credit Document or any transaction relating thereto. Agent alone shall be authorized to determine eligibility and applicable advance rates under the Aggregate Borrowing Base (including whether any Accounts, Inventory or other Property are eligible for inclusion in the Aggregate Borrowing Base), whether to

impose or release any reserve, or whether any conditions to funding or issuance of a Letter of Credit have been satisfied, which determinations and judgments, if exercised in good faith, shall exonerate Agent from liability to any Secured Party or other Person for any error in judgment.

11.1.2. Duties. Agent shall not have any duties except those expressly set forth in the Credit Documents, nor be required to initiate or conduct any Enforcement Action except to the extent directed to do so by Required Lenders while an Event of Default exists. The conferral upon Agent of any right shall not imply a duty on Agent's part to exercise such right, unless instructed to do so by Lenders in accordance with this Agreement.

11.1.3. Agent Professionals. Agent may perform its duties through agents and employees. Agent may consult with and employ Agent Professionals, and shall be entitled to act upon, and shall be fully protected in any action taken in good faith reliance upon, any advice given by an Agent Professional. Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or Agent Professionals selected by it with reasonable care.

11.1.4. Instructions of Required Lenders. The rights and remedies conferred upon Agent under the Credit Documents may be exercised without the necessity of joinder of any other party, unless required by Applicable Law. In determining compliance with a condition for any action hereunder, including satisfaction of any condition in Section 6, Agent may presume that the condition is satisfactory to a Secured Party unless Agent has received notice to the contrary from such Secured Party before Agent takes the action. Agent may request instructions from Required Lenders with respect to any act (including the failure to act) in connection with any Credit Documents or Collateral, and may seek assurances to its satisfaction from Lenders of their indemnification obligations under Section 11.6 against all Claims that could be incurred by Agent in connection with any act. Agent shall be entitled to refrain from any act until it has received such instructions or assurances, and Agent shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining. Instructions of Required Lenders shall be binding upon all Secured Parties, and no Secured Party shall have any right of action whatsoever against Agent as a result of Agent acting or refraining from acting in accordance with the instructions of Required Lenders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, instructions by and consent of each affected Lender, all Lenders or the Supermajority Lenders (as applicable) shall be required in the circumstances described in Section 13.1.1(a)(i), (ii) and (iii), respectively, and in no event shall Required Lenders, without the prior written consent of the requisite Lenders, direct Agent to take any action which would require the consent of each affected Lender, all Lenders or the Supermajority Lenders, as applicable. In no event shall Agent be required to take any action that it determines in its discretion is contrary to Applicable Law or any Credit Documents or could subject any Agent Indemnitee to liability.

11.2. Agreements Regarding Collateral and Field Examination Reports.

11.2.1. Lien and Obligation Releases; Care of Collateral. Secured Parties authorize Agent to, and Agent shall, release any Lien with respect to any Collateral (a) upon Full Payment of the Obligations, (b) that is the subject of a Disposition which Borrower Agent or any Borrower certifies in writing to Agent is an Excluded Disposition or a Lien which Borrower Agent or any Borrower certifies is a Permitted Lien entitled to priority over Agent's Liens (and Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate without further inquiry), (c) that is the subject of any other Disposition permitted by Section 9.2.5 (including the Disposition of a Person to the extent permitted by Section 9.2.5, and other than a Disposition with respect to which Agent's Lien is required to remain in effect as provided in clause (iii) of the proviso in Section 9.2.5) or otherwise consented to by Required Lenders, (d) subject to Section 13.1, with the consent of Required Lenders (provided that the release of all or substantially all of the Collateral shall require the written consent of all Lenders) or (e)

subject to the consent of the Agent, upon request by the Borrower Agent, if Borrower Agent or any Borrower certifies that such Collateral is owned by a Person that is an Immaterial Subsidiary. Secured Parties authorize Agent to, and upon Borrower Agent’s request Agent shall, subordinate its Liens to any Purchase Money Lien or any other Lien entitled to priority hereunder. Secured Parties authorize Agent to, and Agent shall, release any Person from its obligations as a Borrower or Guarantor hereunder (a) that has been Disposed of pursuant to a transaction permitted by Section 9.2.5 or otherwise consented to by Required Lenders or (b) subject to the consent of the Agent, upon request by the Borrower Agent, if Borrower Agent or any Borrower certifies that such Person is an Immaterial Subsidiary. Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any Secured Party to assure that any Collateral exists or is owned by an Obligor, or is cared for, protected, insured or encumbered, nor to assure that Agent's Liens have been properly created, perfected or enforced, or are entitled to any particular priority, nor to exercise any duty of care with respect to any Collateral.

11.2.2. Possession of Collateral. Agent and Secured Parties appoint each Lender as agent (for the benefit of Secured Parties) for the purpose of perfecting Liens in any Collateral held or controlled by such Lender, to the extent such Liens are perfected by possession or control. If any Lender obtains possession or control of any Collateral, it shall notify Agent thereof and, promptly upon Agent's request, deliver such Collateral to Agent or otherwise deal with it in accordance with Agent's instructions.

11.2.3. Reports. Agent shall promptly provide to Lenders when complete copies of the results of any field examination, audit or appraisal report prepared by or on behalf of Agent with respect to any Obligor or Collateral ("Report"). Reports and other Obligor Materials may be made available to Lenders by providing access to them on the Platform, but Agent shall not be responsible for system failures or access issues that may occur from time to time. Each Lender agrees (a) that neither Bank of America nor Agent makes any representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of any Report, and shall not be liable for any information contained in or omitted from any Report; (b) that the Reports are not intended to be comprehensive audits or examinations, and that Agent or any other Person performing any audit or examination will inspect only limited information and will rely significantly upon Obligors' books and records as well as upon representations of Obligors' officers and employees; (c) that Agent makes no representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of any Obligor Materials and shall not be liable for any information contained in or omitted from any Obligor Materials, including any Report; and (d) to keep all Reports and Obligor Materials confidential and strictly for such Lender's internal use, and not to distribute any Report or other Obligor Materials (or the contents thereof) to any Person (except to such Lender's Participants, attorneys and accountants) and to use all Reports and Obligor Materials solely for administration of the Loans and other Obligations. Each Lender agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Agent and any other Person preparing a Report from any action such Lender may take as a result of or any conclusion it may draw from any Obligor Materials, as well as from any Claims arising as a direct or indirect result of Agent furnishing same to such Lender, via the Platform or otherwise.

11.3. Reliance By Agent. Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any certification, notice or other communication (including those by telephone, telex, telegram, telecopy or e-mail) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person, and upon the advice and statements of Agent Professionals.

11.4. Action Upon Default. Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default, or of any failure to satisfy any conditions in Section 6, unless it has received written notice from Borrower Agent or Borrowers or Required Lenders specifying the occurrence and nature thereof. If any Lender acquires knowledge of a Default, Event of Default or failure of such conditions, it shall promptly

notify Agent and the other Lenders thereof in writing. Each Secured Party agrees that, except as otherwise provided in any Credit Documents or with the written consent of Agent and Required Lenders, it will not take any Enforcement Action, accelerate any Obligations (other than Bank Product Indebtedness), or assert any rights relating to any Collateral (including the exercise any right that it might otherwise have under Applicable Law to credit bid at foreclosure sales, UCC sales or other similar dispositions of Collateral). Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, a Lender may take action to preserve or enforce its rights against an Obligor where a deadline or limitation period is applicable that would, absent such action, bar enforcement of Obligations held by such Lender, including the filing of proofs of claim in any proceeding under any Insolvency Proceeding.

11.5. Ratable Sharing. If any Lender shall obtain any payment or reduction of any Obligation (whether through set-off or otherwise) in excess of its Pro Rata share of payments or reductions of Obligations obtained by all Lenders, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Secured Parties such participations in the affected Obligations as shall be necessary to cause the purchasing Secured Party to share the excess payment or reduction, net of costs incurred in connection therewith, on a Pro Rata basis or in accordance with Section 5.5.2, as applicable. If any of such payment or reduction is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Secured Party or if any additional costs are incurred, the purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery or additional costs, but without interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Defaulting Lender obtains a payment or reduction of any Obligation, it shall immediately turn over the full amount thereof to Agent for application under Section 4.2.2 and it shall provide a written statement to Agent describing the Obligation affected by such payment or reduction No Lender may set off against any Dominion Account without the prior consent of Agent.

11.6. Indemnification of Agent Indemnitees.

11.6.1. Indemnification. EACH SECURED PARTY SHALL INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS AGENT INDEMNITEES AND ISSUING BANK INDEMNITEES, TO THE EXTENT NOT REIMBURSED BY OBLIGORS, ON A PRO RATA BASIS, AGAINST ALL CLAIMS THAT MAY BE INCURRED BY OR ASSERTED AGAINST ANY SUCH INDEMNITEE, PROVIDED THAT ANY CLAIM AGAINST AN AGENT INDEMNITEE RELATES TO OR ARISES FROM ITS ACTING AS OR FOR AGENT (IN THE CAPACITY OF AGENT). If Agent is sued by any receiver, trustee or other Person for any alleged preference or fraudulent transfer, then any monies paid by Agent in settlement or satisfaction of such proceeding, together with all interest, costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred in the defense of same, shall be promptly reimbursed to Agent by each Secured Party to the extent of its Pro Rata share.

11.6.2. Proceedings. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if at any time (whether prior to or after the Commitment Termination Date) any proceeding is brought against any Agent Indemnitees by an Obligor, or any Person claiming through an Obligor, to recover damages for any act taken or omitted by Agent in connection with any Obligations, Collateral, Credit Documents or matters relating thereto, or otherwise to obtain any other relief of any kind on account of any transaction relating to any Credit Documents, each Lender agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Agent Indemnitees with respect thereto and to pay to Agent Indemnitees such Lender's Pro Rata share of any amount that any Agent Indemnitee is required to pay under any judgment or other order entered in such proceeding or by reason of any settlement, including all interest, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred in defending same. In Agent's discretion, Agent may reserve for any such proceeding, and may satisfy any judgment, order or settlement, from proceeds of Collateral prior to making any distributions of Collateral proceeds to Lenders.

11.7. Limitation on Responsibilities of Agent. Agent shall not be liable to any Secured Party for any action taken or omitted to be taken under the Credit Documents, except for losses directly and solely caused by Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct. Agent does not assume any responsibility for any failure or delay in performance or any breach by any Obligor, Lender or other Secured Party of any obligations under the Credit Documents. Agent does not make any express or implied representation, warranty or guarantee to any Secured Party with respect to any Obligations, Collateral, Liens, Credit Documents or Obligor. No Agent Indemnitee shall be responsible to any Secured Party for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties contained in any Credit Documents or Obligor Materials; the execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness or enforceability of any Credit Documents; the genuineness, enforceability, collectability, value, sufficiency, location or existence of any Collateral, or the validity, extent, perfection or priority of any Lien therein; the validity, enforceability or collectability of any Obligations; or the assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, business, creditworthiness or legal status of any Obligor or Account Debtor. No Agent Indemnitee shall have any obligation to any Secured Party to ascertain or inquire into the existence of any Default or Event of Default, the observance or performance by any Obligor of any terms of the Credit Documents, or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent contained in any Credit Documents.

11.8. Successor Agent and Co-Agents.

11.8.1. Resignation; Successor Agent. Agent may resign at any time by giving at least 30 days written notice thereof to Lenders and Borrower Agent. If Agent is a Defaulting Lender under clause (d) of the definition thereof, Required Lenders have the right, in consultation with Borrower Agent, to remove such Agent by written notice to Borrower Agent and Agent. Required Lenders may appoint a successor to replace the resigning or removed Agent, which successor shall be (a) a Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) or an Affiliate of a Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender); or (b) a financial institution with an office in the United States reasonably acceptable to Required Lenders and (provided no Default or Event of Default exists) Borrower Agent. If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of Agent's resignation or removal, then Agent may appoint a successor agent that is a financial institution with an office in the United States acceptable to it (which shall be a Lender unless no Lender accepts the role) or in the absence of such appointment, Required Lenders shall on such date assume all rights and duties of Agent hereunder (except that in the case of any collateral security held by Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties under Credit Document, the retiring Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Agent is appointed). Upon acceptance by any successor Agent of its appointment to serve as Agent hereunder, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the powers and duties of the retiring Agent without further act. On the effective date of its resignation or removal, the retiring or removed Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder but shall continue to have all rights and protections under the Credit Documents with respect to actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while Agent, including the indemnification set forth in Sections 11.6 and 13.2, and all rights and protections under this Section 11. Any successor to Bank of America by merger or acquisition of stock shall continue to be Agent hereunder without further act on the part of any Secured Party or Obligor.

11.8.2. Co-Collateral Agent. If appropriate under Applicable Law, Agent may appoint a Person to serve as a co-collateral agent or separate collateral agent under any Credit Document. Each right, remedy and protection intended to be available to Agent under the Credit Documents shall also be vested in such agent. Secured Parties shall execute and deliver any instrument or agreement that Agent may request to effect such appointment. If any such agent shall die, dissolve, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, then all the rights and remedies of such agent, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, shall vest in and be exercised by Agent until appointment of a new agent.

11.9. Due Diligence and Non-Reliance. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that it has, independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other Lenders, and based upon such documents, information and analyses as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis of each Obligor and its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to fund Loans and participate in LC Obligations hereunder. Each Secured Party has made such inquiries concerning the Credit Documents, the Collateral and each Obligor and related matters as such Lender feels necessary. Each Secured Party acknowledges and agrees that the other Secured Parties have made no representations or warranties concerning any Obligor, any Collateral or the legality, validity, sufficiency or enforceability of any Credit Documents or Obligations. Each Secured Party will, independently and without reliance upon any other Secured Party, and based upon such financial statements, documents and information as it deems appropriate at the time, continue to make and rely upon its own credit decisions in making Loans and participating in LC Obligations, and in taking or refraining from any action under any Credit Documents. Except for notices, reports and other information expressly requested by a Lender, Agent shall have no duty or responsibility to provide any Secured Party with any notices, reports or certificates furnished to Agent by any Obligor or any credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition, business or Properties of any Obligor (or any of its Affiliates) which may come into possession of Agent or any of Agent's Affiliates.

11.10. Remittance of Payments and Collections.

11.10.1. Remittances Generally. All payments by any Lender to Agent shall be made by the time and on the day set forth in this Agreement, in immediately available funds. If no time for payment is specified or if payment is due on demand by Agent and request for payment is made by Agent by 11:00 a.m. on a Business Day, payment shall be made by Lender not later than 2:00 p.m. on such day, and if request is made after 11:00 a.m., then payment shall be made by 11:00 a.m. on the next Business Day. Payment by Agent to any Secured Party shall be made by wire transfer, in the type of funds received by Agent. Any such payment shall be subject to Agent's right of offset for any amounts due from such payee under the Credit Documents.

11.10.2. Failure to Pay. If any Secured Party fails to pay any amount when due by it to Agent pursuant to the terms hereof, such amount shall bear interest from the due date until paid in full at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate or the rate determined by Agent as customary for interbank compensation for two Business Days and thereafter at the Default Rate for Base Rate Revolver Loans. In no event shall any Obligor be entitled to credit for any interest paid by a Secured Party to Agent, nor shall any Defaulting Lender be entitled to interest on any amounts held by Agent pursuant to Section 4.2.

Recovery of Payments. If Agent pays any amount to a Secured Party in the expectation that a related payment will be received by Agent from an Obligor and such related payment is not received, then Agent may recover such amount from such Secured Party. If Agent determines that an amount received by it must be returned or paid to an Obligor or any other Person pursuant to Applicable Law or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term of any Credit Document, Agent shall not be required to distribute such amount to any Secured Party. If any amounts received and applied by Agent to any Obligations held by a Secured Party are later required to be returned by Agent pursuant to Applicable Law, such Secured Party shall pay to Agent, on demand, its share of the amounts required to be returned.

11.11. Individual Capacities. As a Lender, Bank of America shall have the same rights and remedies under the Credit Documents as any other Lender, and the terms "Lenders", "Required Lenders", "Supermajority Lenders" or any similar term shall include Bank of America in its capacity as a Lender. Each of Agent, Lenders and their Affiliates may accept deposits from, maintain deposits or credit balances for, invest in, lend money to, provide Bank Products to, act as trustee under indentures of, serve as financial or

other advisor to, and generally engage in any kind of business with, Obligors and their Affiliates, as if it were not Agent or a Lender hereunder, without any duty to account therefor (including any fees or other consideration received in connection therewith) to any Secured Party. In their individual capacities, Agent, Lenders and their Affiliates may receive information regarding Obligors, their Affiliates and their Account Debtors (including information subject to confidentiality obligations), and shall have no obligation to provide such information to any Secured Party.

11.12. Titles. Each Lender, other than Bank of America, that is designated (on the cover page of this Agreement or otherwise) by Bank of America as an "Arranger", "Bookrunner" or "Agent" of any type shall have no right, power or duty under any Credit Documents other than those applicable to all Lenders, and shall in no event have any fiduciary duty to any Secured Party.

11.13. Bank Product Providers. Each holder of Bank Product Indebtedness, by delivery of a notice to Agent of a Bank Product, agrees to be bound by the Credit Documents, including Section 5.5, this Section 11 and Section 13.4.3. Each holder of Bank Product Indebtedness shall indemnify and hold harmless Agent Indemnitees, to the extent not reimbursed by Obligors, against all Claims that may be incurred by or asserted against any Agent Indemnitee in connection with such provider's Bank Product Indebtedness.

11.14. No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Section 11 shall survive Full Payment of the Obligations. This Section 11 is an agreement solely among Lenders and Agent, and does not confer any rights or benefits upon Obligors or any other Person. As between Obligors (or any Obligor) and Agent, any action that Agent may take under any Credit Documents or with respect to any Obligations shall be conclusively presumed to have been authorized and directed by Secured Parties.

SECTION 12. BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT; ASSIGNMENTS AND PARTICIPATIONS

12.1. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Obligors, Agent and Secured Parties and their respective successors and assigns, except that (a) no Obligor shall have the right to assign its rights or delegate its obligations under any Credit Documents, and (b) any assignment by a Lender must be made in compliance with Section 12.3. Agent may treat the Person which made any Loan as the owner thereof for all purposes until such Person makes an assignment in accordance with Section 12.3. Any authorization or consent of a Lender shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent transferee or assignee of such Lender.

12.2. Participations.

12.2.1. Permitted Participants; Effect. Subject to Sections 12.3.3, any Lender may sell to a financial institution ("Participant") a participating interest in the rights and obligations of such Lender under any Credit Documents. Despite any sale by a Lender of participating interests to a Participant, such Lender's obligations under the Credit Documents shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for performance of such obligations, such Lender shall remain the holder of its Loans and Commitments for all purposes, all amounts payable by Obligors shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participating interests, and Obligors and Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with the Credit Documents. Each Lender shall be solely responsible for notifying its Participants of any matters under the Credit Documents, and Agent and the other Lenders shall not have any obligation or liability to any such Participant. Each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.8 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein and Section 5.9 (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 5.9 shall be delivered to the participating Lender)), Section 3.6.1 and Section 3.6.2 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 12.3; provided that such Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 5.8, Section 3.6.1 or Section 3.6.2, 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 that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation.

12.2.2. Voting Rights. Each Lender shall retain the sole right to approve, without the consent of any Participant, any amendment, waiver or other modification of any Credit Documents other than that which forgives principal, interest or fees, reduces the stated interest rate or fees payable with respect to any Loan or Commitment in which such Participant has an interest, postpones the Commitment Termination Date or any date fixed for any regularly scheduled payment of principal, interest or fees on such Loan or Commitment, or releases any Borrower, any Guarantor or all or substantially all of the Collateral.

12.2.3. Benefit of Set-Off. Obligors agree that each Participant shall have a right of set-off in respect of its participating interest to the same extent as if such interest were owing directly to a Lender, and each Lender shall also retain the right of set-off with respect to any participating interests sold by it. By exercising any right of set-off, a Participant agrees to share with Lenders all amounts received through its set-off, in accordance with Section 11.5 as if such Participant were a Lender.

12.2.4. Participation Register. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrowers (solely for tax purposes), maintain a register in which it enters the Participant's name, address and interest in Commitments, principal amount of Loans (and stated interest), LC Obligations or other obligations under the Credit Documents. Entries in the register shall be presumed correct absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person recorded in the register as the owner of the participation for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. No Lender shall have an obligation to disclose any information in such register except to the extent necessary to establish that a Participant's interest is in registered form under the Code.

12.3. Assignments.

12.3.1. Permitted Assignments. A Lender may assign to any Eligible Assignee any of its rights and obligations under the Credit Documents, as long as (a) each assignment is of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of the transferor Lender's rights and obligations under the Credit Documents and, in the case of a partial assignment, is in a minimum principal amount of $10,000,000 (unless otherwise agreed by Agent in its discretion) and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount; (b) except in the case of an assignment in whole of a Lender's rights and obligations, the aggregate amount of the Commitments retained by the transferor Lender is at least $1,000,000 (unless otherwise agreed by Agent in its discretion); and (c) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to Agent, for its acceptance and recording, an Assignment and Acceptance. Nothing herein shall limit the right of a Lender to pledge or assign any rights under the Credit Documents to secure obligations of such Lender, including pledge or assignment to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided, however, that no such pledge or assignment shall release the assigning Lender from its obligations hereunder nor substitute the pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

12.3.2. Effect; Effective Date. Upon delivery to Agent of an executed Assignment and Acceptance and a processing fee of $5,000 (unless otherwise agreed by Agent in its discretion), the assignment shall become effective as specified in the notice, if it complies with this Section 12.3. From such effective date, the Eligible Assignee shall for all purposes be a Lender under the Credit Documents, and shall have all rights and obligations of a Lender thereunder. Upon consummation of an assignment, the transferor Lender, Agent and Borrowers shall make appropriate arrangements

for issuance of replacement and/or new Notes, if applicable. The transferee Lender shall comply with Section 5.9 and deliver, upon request, an administrative questionnaire satisfactory to Agent.

12.3.3. Certain Assignees. No assignment or participation may be made to a Borrower or other Obligor, an Affiliate of a Borrower or other Obligor, a Defaulting Lender or a natural person. Any assignment by a Defaulting Lender shall be effective only upon payment by the Eligible Assignee or Defaulting Lender to Agent of an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution (through direct payment, purchases of participations or other compensating actions as Agent deems appropriate), to satisfy all funding and payment liabilities then owing by such Defaulting Lender hereunder. If an assignment by a Defaulting Lender shall become effective under Applicable Law for any reason without compliance with the foregoing sentence, then the assignee shall be deemed a Defaulting Lender for all purposes until such compliance occurs.

12.3.4. Register. Agent, acting as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrowers (solely for tax purposes), shall maintain (a) a copy (or electronic equivalent) of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it, and (b) a register for recordation of the names, addresses and Commitments of, and the principal amount of Loans (and stated interest) and LC Obligations owing to, each Lender. Entries in the register shall be presumed correct absent manifest error, and Borrowers, Agent and Lenders shall treat each Person recorded in such register as a Lender for all purposes under the Credit Documents, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. The register shall be available for inspection by Borrowers or any Lender, from time to time upon reasonable notice.

12.4. Tax Treatment. If any interest in a Credit Document is transferred to a Transferee that is organized under the laws of any jurisdiction other than the United States or any state or district thereof, the transferor Lender shall cause such Transferee, concurrently with the effectiveness of such transfer, to comply with the provisions of Section 5.9.

12.5. Representation of Lenders. Each Lender represents and warrants to each Obligor, Agent and other Lenders that none of the consideration used by it to fund its Loans or to participate in any other transactions under this Agreement constitutes for any purpose of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code assets of any "plan" as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and the interests of such Lender in and under the Credit Documents shall not constitute plan assets under ERISA.

13.1.2. Limitations. The agreement of Obligors shall not be necessary to the effectiveness of any modification of a Credit Document that deals solely with the rights and duties of Lenders, Agent and/or Issuing Bank as among themselves. Only the consent of the parties to any agreement relating to a Bank Product shall be required for any modification of such agreement, and no Affiliate of a Lender that is party to a Bank Product agreement shall have any other right to consent to or participate in any manner in modification of any other Credit Document. The making of any Loans during the existence of a Default or Event of Default shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of such Default or Event of Default, nor to establish a course of dealing. Any waiver or consent granted by Agent or Lenders hereunder shall be effective only if in writing, and then only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it is given.

13.1.3. Payment for Consents. No Obligor will, directly or indirectly, pay any remuneration or other thing of value, whether by way of additional interest, fee or otherwise, to any Lender (in its capacity as a Lender hereunder) as consideration for agreement by such Lender with respect to any modification of any Credit Documents, unless such remuneration or value is concurrently paid, on the same terms, on a Pro Rata basis to all Lenders providing their consent.

13.2. General Indemnity. Obligors shall indemnify each Indemnitee (and any sub agent of Agent) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of one outside counsel for Agent (plus one local counsel for Agent in each jurisdiction of formation or organization of any Obligor), and one outside counsel retained by Lenders or any steering committee or similar group acting on behalf of Lenders as a group (and such additional counsel as Agent, any Lender, any group of Lenders or any such steering committee determines in good faith are necessary in light of actual or potential conflicts of interest or the availability of different claims or defenses)) incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by any Borrower or any other Obligor arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or, in the case of Agent Indemnitees only, the administration of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under any Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of the Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by any Obligor, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to any Obligor, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by any Borrower or any other Obligor, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, in all cases, whether or not caused by or arising, in whole or in part, out of the comparative, contributory or sole negligence of the Indemnitee; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, (A) be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by a Borrower or any other Obligor against an Indemnitee for material breach or breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee's obligations hereunder or under any other Credit Document, if such Borrower or such Obligor has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or (B) include any allocated costs of internal counsel for any such Indemnitee. This Section 13.2 shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim. The liability for Taxes (including Other Taxes incurred as a result of the execution, delivery, issuance or recording of any Credit Documents or the creation or repayment of any Obligations) shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of Sections 5.8 and 5.9.

13.3. Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that Obligors for any reason fail to indefeasibly pay any amount required under Section 13.2 to be paid by them to any Indemnitee, each Lender severally agrees to pay to such Indemnitee such Lender's Pro Rata portion (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against Agent (or any such sub-agent) or Issuing Bank in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for Agent (or any such sub-agent) or Issuing Bank in connection with such capacity.

13.4. Notices and Communications.

13.4.1. Notices Generally. Except in the case of notices and other communications expressly permitted to be given by telephone (and except as provided in Section 13.4.2 below), subject to Section 13.4.4, all notices, demands and other communications provided for herein shall be in writing and shall be delivered by hand or overnight courier service, mailed by certified or registered mail or sent by telecopier as follows, and all notices and other communications expressly permitted hereunder to be given by telephone shall be made to the applicable telephone number, as follows:

(a) if to any Obligor, Agent or Issuing Bank, to the address, telecopier number, electronic mail address or telephone number specified for such Person on the signature pages hereto; and

(b) if to any other Lender, to the address, telecopier number, electronic mail address or telephone number specified for such Person on the signature pages hereto or, in the case of a Person who becomes a Lender after the Closing Date, at the address shown on its Assignment and Acceptance.

Notices sent by hand or overnight courier service, or mailed by certified or registered mail, shall be deemed to have been given when received; notices sent by telecopier shall be deemed to have been given when sent (except that, if not given during normal business hours for the recipient, shall be deemed to have been given at the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient). Notices delivered through electronic communications to the extent provided in Section 13.4.2 shall be effective as provided in such Section. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no notice to Agent pursuant to Section 2.1.3, 2.3, 3.1.2 or 4.1.1 shall be effective until actually received by the individual to whose attention at Agent such notice is required to be sent. Any notice received by Borrower Agent shall be deemed received by all Borrowers and other Obligors.

13.4.2. Electronic Communications.

Notices and other communications to Lenders and Issuing Bank hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by Agent. Agent, any Obligor or Borrower Agent may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. Unless otherwise agreed by Agent, electronic mail and internet websites may be used only for routine communications, such as delivery of Obligor Materials, administrative matters, distribution of Credit Documents and matters permitted under Section 4.1.4. Voice mail may not be used as effective notice under the Credit Documents.

Unless Agent otherwise prescribes, (a) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender's receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the "return receipt requested" function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement), provided that if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient, and (b) 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 (a) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor. Notices given to Agent by electronic mail or submitted through Agent's website shall be deemed to have been given in writing.

13.4.3. The Platform. Obligor Materials shall be delivered pursuant to procedures approved by Agent, including electronic delivery (if possible) upon request by Agent to an electronic system maintained by Agent ("Platform"). Borrower Agent shall notify Agent of each posting of Obligor Materials on the Platform and the materials shall be deemed received by Agent only upon its receipt of such notice. Obligor Materials and other information relating to this Agreement may be made available to Secured Parties on the Platform (and, upon request made by any Lender to Agent, shall be made available by Agent to such Lender on the Platform or as Agent may otherwise determine in its discretion), and Obligors and Secured Parties acknowledge that "public" information is not segregated from material non-public information on the Platform. The Platform is provided "as is" and "as available." Agent does not warrant the accuracy or completeness of any information on the Platform nor the adequacy or functioning of the Platform, and expressly disclaims liability for any errors or omissions in the Obligor Materials or any issues involving the Platform. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS, OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY AGENT WITH RESPECT TO OBLIGOR MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. Secured Parties acknowledge that Obligor Materials may include material non-public information of Obligors and should not be made available to any personnel who do not wish to receive such information or who may be engaged in investment or other market-related activities with respect to any Obligor's securities. No Agent Indemnitee shall have any liability to Obligors, Secured Parties or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) relating to use by any Person of the Platform or delivery of Obligor Materials and other information through the Platform or over the internet, except to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (a) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (b) result from a claim brought by an Obligor against such Indemnitee for material breach or breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee's obligations hereunder relating to such use or delivery, in each case if such Obligor has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided, however, that in no event shall any Agent Indemnitee have any liability for indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages).

13.4.4. Change of Address, Etc Each of Obligors, Agent and Issuing Bank may change its address, telecopier or telephone number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto in accordance with this Section 13.4. Each other Lender may change its address, telecopier or telephone number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to Borrower Agent, Agent and Issuing Bank in accordance with this Section 13.4. In addition, each Lender agrees to notify Agent from time to time to ensure that Agent has on record (a) an effective address, contact name, telephone number, telecopier number and electronic mail address to which notices and other communications may be sent and (b) accurate wire instructions for such Lender.

13.4.5. Reliance by Agent, Issuing Bank and Lenders. Agent, Issuing Bank and Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including telephonic Notices of Borrowing) purportedly and believed in good faith to have been given by or on behalf of Borrower Agent or Obligors (or any Obligor) even if (a) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (b) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. Borrowers shall indemnify Agent, Issuing Bank, each Lender and the Related Parties of each of them from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of any Borrower Agent or any Obligor; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any such Indemnitee, (i) be available to the extent that such losses, costs

or expenses (A) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (B) result from a claim brought by a Borrower or any other Obligor against such Indemnitee for material breach or breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee's obligations hereunder or under any other Credit Document, if such Borrower or such Obligor has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, or (ii) include any allocated costs of internal counsel for any such Indemnitee. All telephonic notices to and other telephonic communications with Agent may be recorded by Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording.

13.4.6. Non-Conforming Communications. Agent and Lenders may rely in good faith upon any notices (including telephonic communications) purportedly given by or on behalf of Borrower Agent or any Obligor even if such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not confirmed, or if the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from a later confirmation. Each Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee from any liabilities, losses, costs and expenses arising from any electronic or telephonic communication purportedly given by or on behalf of Borrower Agent or any Obligor; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any such Indemnitee, (a) be available to the extent that such liabilities, losses, costs or expenses (i) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (ii) result from a claim brought by a Borrower or any other Obligor against such Indemnitee for material breach or breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee's obligations hereunder or under any other Credit Document, if such Borrower or such Obligor has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, or (b) include any allocated costs of internal counsel for any such Indemnitee.

13.5. Performance of Borrowers' Obligations. Agent may, in its discretion at any time and from time to time, at Borrowers' expense, pay any amount or do any act required of a Borrower or other Obligor under any Credit Documents or otherwise lawfully requested by Agent to (a) enforce any Credit Documents or collect any Obligations; (b) protect, insure, maintain or realize upon any Collateral; or (c) defend or maintain the validity or priority of Agent's Liens in any Collateral; including any payment of a judgment, insurance premium, warehouse charge, finishing or processing charge, or landlord claim, or any discharge of a Lien. All payments, costs and expenses (including Extraordinary Expenses) of Agent under this Section shall be reimbursed to Agent by Borrowers, on demand, with interest from the date incurred to the date of payment thereof at the interest rate (including, if applicable, the Default Rate) applicable to Base Rate Revolver Loans. Any payment made or action taken by Agent under this Section shall be without prejudice to any right to assert an Event of Default or to exercise any other rights or remedies under the Credit Documents.

13.6. Credit Inquiries. Subject to Section 13.12, each Obligor hereby authorizes Agent and Lenders (but they shall have no obligation) to respond to usual and customary credit inquiries from third parties concerning any Obligor or Subsidiary.

13.7. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Credit Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

13.8. Cumulative Effect; Conflict of Terms. The provisions of the Credit Documents are cumulative. The parties acknowledge that the Credit Documents may use several different limitations, tests or measurements to regulate the same or similar matters, and they agree that these are cumulative and that each must be performed as provided. Except as otherwise specifically provided in another Credit Document (by specific reference to the applicable provision of this Agreement), if any provision contained herein is in direct conflict with any provision in another Credit Document, the provision herein shall govern and control.

13.9. Counterparts; Facsimile Signatures. Any Credit Document may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Except as provided in Section 6.1, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by Agent and when Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of a signature page of any Credit Document by telecopy or other electronic means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of such agreement. Any electronic signature, contract formation on an electronic platform and electronic record-keeping shall have the same legal validity and enforceability as a manually executed signature or use of a paper-based recordkeeping system to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any similar state law based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

Agent may require confirmation by a manually-signed original, but failure to request or deliver same shall not limit the effectiveness of any facsimile signature.

13.10. Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence with respect to all Credit Documents and Obligations.

13.11. Obligations of Lenders. The obligations of each Lender hereunder are several, and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligations or Commitment of any other Lender. Amounts payable hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt, and each Lender shall be entitled, to the extent not otherwise restricted hereunder, to protect and enforce its rights arising out of the Credit Documents. It shall not be necessary for Agent or any other Lender to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purposes. Nothing in this Agreement and no action of Agent, Lenders or any other Secured Party pursuant to the Credit Documents or otherwise shall be deemed to constitute Agent and any Lenders or other Secured Parties to be a partnership, association, joint venture or similar arrangement, nor to constitute control of any Obligor. Each Obligor acknowledges and agrees that, in connection with all aspects of any transaction contemplated by the Credit Documents, Obligors, Agent, Issuing Bank and Lenders have an arms‑length business relationship that creates no fiduciary duty on the part of Agent, Issuing Bank or any Lender, and each Obligor, Agent, Issuing Bank and Lender expressly disclaims any fiduciary relationship.

13.12. Confidentiality. Each of Agent, Lenders and Issuing Bank agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates' respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any governmental, regulatory or self-regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it or its Affiliates, (c) to the extent required by Applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Credit Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Credit Document or Obligations or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this

Agreement, (ii) any actual or prospective provider (or its advisors) of any Bank Product (other than such a provider of Interest Rate Swaps) relating to any Obligor and its obligations, or (iii) any direct, indirect, actual or prospective counterparty (and its advisors) to any credit support, swap, derivative or securitization transaction related to the obligations under this Agreement, (g) with the consent of Borrower Agent or Borrowers, or (h) to the extent such Information (i) is publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to Agent, any Lender, Issuing Bank or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than an Obligor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Agent and Lenders may publish or disseminate general information concerning this credit facility for league table, tombstone and advertising purposes, and may use Obligors' logos, trademarks or product photographs in advertising materials.

For purposes of this Section, "Information" means all information received from or on behalf of any Consolidated Party relating to any Consolidated Party or other Obligor or any of their respective securities or businesses, other than any such information that is available to Agent, any Lender or Issuing Bank on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by such Consolidated Party, provided that, in the case of information received from any Consolidated Party after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised a degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information similar to that accorded to its own confidential information.

Each of Agent, Lenders, Issuing Bank and Secured Parties acknowledges that (A) the Information may include material non-public information concerning Consolidated Parties or any other Obligor, as the case may be, (B) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information, and (C) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with Applicable Law, including federal and state securities laws.

13.13. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND, UNLESS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN SUCH OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT, THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS AND ALL CLAIMS SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ANY CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES EXCEPT FEDERAL LAWS RELATING TO NATIONAL BANKS.

13.14. SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF VENUE OBJECTION; SERVICE OF PROCESS; BAIL-IN OF EEA FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS.

13.14.1. SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION.

EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY SUBMITS, FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY, TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT OF THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY THEREOF, IN ANY DISPUTE, ACTION, LITIGATION OR OTHER PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT, OR FOR RECOGNITION OR ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT, AND EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN SUCH NEW YORK STATE COURT OR, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN SUCH FEDERAL COURT. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE

AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTION BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT OR IN ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT SHALL AFFECT ANY RIGHT THAT AGENT, ANY LENDER OR ISSUING BANK MAY OTHERWISE HAVE TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT AGAINST ANY BORROWER OR ANY OTHER OBLIGOR OR ITS PROPERTIES IN THE COURTS OF ANY JURISDICTION.

13.14.2. WAIVER OF VENUE OBJECTION.

EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT IN ANY COURT REFERRED TO IN SECTION 13.14.1. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY OBJECTION TO THE MAINTENANCE OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT BASED ON INCONVENIENT FORUM OR LACK OF PERSONAL JURISDICTION.

13.14.3. SERVICE OF PROCESS.

EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES IN SECTION 13.4. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT WILL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY HERETO TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

13.14.4. Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Credit Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among the parties, each party hereto (including each Secured Party) acknowledges that any liability arising under a Credit Document of any Secured Party that is an EEA Financial Institution, to the extent such liability is unsecured, 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 under any Credit Documents which may be payable to it by any Secured Party that is an EEA Financial Institution; and (b) the effects of any Bail-in Action on any such liability, including (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 undertaking or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under any Credit Document; or (iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of any EEA Resolution Authority.

13.15. Waivers by Obligors. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH OBLIGOR WAIVES (A) THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY (WHICH AGENT AND EACH LENDER HEREBY ALSO WAIVES) IN ANY PROCEEDING, CLAIM OR COUNTERCLAIM OF ANY KIND RELATING IN ANY WAY TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENTS, OBLIGATIONS OR COLLATERAL; (b) presentment, demand, protest, notice of presentment, default, non-payment, maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension or renewal of any commercial paper, accounts, contract rights, documents,

instruments, chattel paper and guaranties at any time held by Agent on which an Obligor may in any way be liable, and hereby ratifies anything Agent may do in this regard; (c) notice prior to taking possession or control of any Collateral; (d) any bond or security that might be required by a court prior to allowing Agent to exercise any rights or remedies; (e) the benefit of all valuation, appraisement and exemption laws; (f) any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) in any way relating to any Enforcement Action, Obligations, Credit Documents or transactions relating thereto; and (g) notice of acceptance hereof. Each Obligor acknowledges that the foregoing waivers are a material inducement to Agent, Issuing Bank and Lenders entering into this Agreement and that Agent, Issuing Bank and Lenders are relying upon the foregoing in their dealings with Obligors. Each party hereto has reviewed the foregoing waivers with its legal counsel and has knowingly and voluntarily waived its jury trial and other rights following consultation with legal counsel. In the event of litigation, this Agreement may be filed as a written consent to a trial by the court.

13.16. Patriot Act Notice. Agent and Lenders hereby notify each Obligor that, pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, Agent and Lenders are required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Obligor, including its legal name, address, tax ID number and other information that will allow Agent and Lenders to identify it in accordance with the Patriot Act. Agent and Lenders will also require information regarding each personal guarantor, if any, and may require information regarding each Obligor's management and owners, such as legal name, address, social security number and date of birth. Obligors shall, promptly upon request, provide all documentation and other information as Agent, Issuing Bank or any Lender may request from time to time in order to comply with any obligations under any "know your customer," anti-money laundering or other requirements of Applicable Law.

13.17. Replacement of Certain Lenders. Upon the occurrence of any event or circumstance described in Section 3.7.2 with respect to any Lender, then Borrowers may, at the sole expense and effort of Borrowers, upon notice to such Lender and Agent, require such Lender to promptly assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 12.3), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Credit Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:

(a) Borrowers shall have paid to Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 12.3.2;

(b) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Credit Documents (including any amounts under Section 3.8) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts);

(c) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.6 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 5.8, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;

(d) such assignment does not conflict with Applicable Laws; and

(e) in the case of any such assignment by a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable amendment, modification and/or waiver of this Agreement that Borrowers have requested shall become effective upon giving effect to such assignment (and any related assignments required to be effected in connection therewith in accordance with this Section 13.17).

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling Borrowers to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

13.18. Subordination. Each Obligor hereby subordinates any claims, including any rights at law or in equity, to payment (including in respect of intercompany Indebtedness among Obligors and Restricted Subsidiaries (the "Intercompany Debt")), subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification or set off, that it may have at any time against any other Obligor, howsoever arising, to the Full Payment of all Obligations. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Obligors may make and receive payments with respect to the Intercompany Debt, including the fees, allocated overhead, prepayments and repayments of indebtedness and interest thereon, to the extent not otherwise prohibited by this Agreement; provided, that in the event of and during the continuation of any Event of Default, no payment shall be made by or on behalf of any Obligor on account of any Intercompany Debt except pursuant to the customary operation of a consolidated cash management system. In the event that any Obligor receives any payment of any Intercompany Debt at a time when such payment is prohibited by this Section 13.18, such payment shall be held by such Obligor in trust for the benefit of, and shall be paid forthwith over and delivered, upon written request, to, Agent.

13.19. No Advisory or Fiduciary Relationship. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Credit Document), each Obligor acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Affiliates' understanding, that: (a)(i) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by Agent and Arrangers are arm's-length commercial transactions between such Obligor and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Agent and Arrangers, on the other hand, (ii) each Obligor has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (iii) each Obligor is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Credit Documents; (b)(i) each of Agent and Arrangers is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary, for any Obligor or any of its respective Affiliates or any other Person and (ii) neither Agent nor any Arranger has any obligation to any Obligor or any of its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit Documents; and (c) Agent and Arrangers and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of Obligors and their Affiliates, and neither Agent nor any Arranger has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to Obligors or their Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Obligor hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against Agent or any Arranger with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.

13.20. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE ENTIRE FINAL AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF AND THEREOF AND SUPERSEDE AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN OR AMONG THE PARTIES.

13.21. Amendment and Restatement, etc.

(a) Upon the effectiveness of this Agreement and effective as of the Closing Date, this Agreement shall constitute an amendment and restatement of, but not an extinguishment of any of the "Loans" (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement),

"Obligations" (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) or other indebtedness, liabilities and/or obligations of any one or more of Obligors under, the Existing Credit Agreement.

(b) Obligors represent and warrant to Agents and Lenders, and the parties hereto agree, that this Agreement is a "Working Capital Credit Agreement" as defined in, and for all purposes of, the Hedge Intercreditor Agreement.

13.22. Ratification of Existing Liens and IP License. Each of Obligors hereby (a) ratifies, confirms and reaffirms any and all Liens that it previously granted to Agent pursuant to the "Credit Documents" (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) to the extent that (i) such Obligor continues to have an interest in the property or assets in which any such Lien was granted and (ii) such Lien is required hereunder or under a Collateral Document to be granted to Agent, (b) acknowledges an agrees that none of such Liens has expired or has been terminated or released, except if and to the extent, if any, expressly provided in such "Credit Documents" or as may have been previously and expressly terminated or released by Agent, and (c) acknowledges and agrees that each of such Liens is valid and enforceable in accordance with its terms and continues in full force and effect to secure the payment and performance of the Obligations. Each of Obligors hereby (i) ratifies, confirms and reaffirms all of its obligations under the IP License, (ii) acknowledges and agrees that (A) none of such obligations has expired or has been terminated or released, (B) the term "Credit Agreement" as used therein includes this Agreement, and (C) the term "Liens" referred to therein includes each Lien and all Liens created or granted pursuant to the Collateral Documents, and (iii) acknowledges and agrees that each of such obligations is valid and enforceable in accordance with its terms and continues in full force and effect in favor of Agent and Lenders.

13.23. Assignments between and among Lenders. On the Closing Date and concurrently with but immediately prior to the effectiveness of this Agreement, Lenders shall, at the direction of Agent and between and/or among Lenders as Agent may direct, make assignments, at par value, of the outstanding loans, letters of credit and commitments under the Existing Credit Agreement as appropriate to ensure that all Loans, Letters of Credit and Commitments under this Agreement are, as of the Closing Date, consistent with the respective Commitments of Lenders as set forth on Schedule 1.1A hereto. On the Closing Date and concurrently with but immediately prior to the effectiveness of this Agreement, the commitment of each lender that is a party to the Existing Credit Agreement but is not a party to this Agreement (an “Exiting Lender”) will be terminated, all outstanding obligations owing to the Exiting Lenders will be repaid in full and each Exiting Lender will cease to be a Lender under the Existing Credit Agreement and will not be a Lender under this Agreement.

13.24. Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for any Swap Contract or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support”, and each such QFC, a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

(a) In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing

such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

(b) As used in this Section 13.24, the following terms have the following meanings:

“BHC Act Affiliate” of a party means an “affiliate” (as such term is defined under, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 1841(k)) of such party.

“Covered Entity” means any of the following: (i) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b); (ii) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or (iii) a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b).

“Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable.

“QFC” has the meaning assigned to the term “qualified financial contract” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 5390(c)(8)(D).
