W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, the Borrowers have requested, and the Term Lenders have agreed to make available to the Borrowers, term loan facilities consisting of (i) an initial term loan to be funded on the Closing Date in an amount up to $35,000,000 and (ii) delayed draw term loans in an aggregate amount up to $10,000,000 upon and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement to (x) with respect to the Initial Term Loan (a) finance the Xxxxxxxx Acquisition, and (b) fund certain fees and expenses as provided herein and the other Loan Documents and (y) with respect to the Delayed Draw Term Loans, for general corporate purposes and working capital; and

WHEREAS, the Loan Parties desire to secure all of their Obligations under the Loan Documents by granting to the Term Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a security interest in and Lien upon substantially all of their Property (other than any Excluded Assets);

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements, provisions and covenants contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE I.

THE TERM LOANS

1.1 Amount of the Term Loans; Protective Overadvances.

(a) Term Loans.

(i) Initial Term Loan. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement including Section 2.1, each Term Lender agrees (severally, not jointly or jointly and severally) to make initial Term Loans on the Closing Date (the “Initial Term Loans”) to Borrower, in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed the amount of such Term Lender’s Initial Term Loan Commitment; provided, that after giving effect to the making of the Initial Term Loan, in no event shall the aggregate Initial Term Loans exceed the lesser of the Borrowing Base or the Initial Term Loan Commitments then in effect. Each Term Lender’s Initial Term Loan Commitment shall be permanently reduced immediately and without further action upon the making of the Initial Term Loan in an amount equal to the amount of such Term Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of such Initial Term Loan. Any principal amount of the Initial Term Loan which is repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed.

(ii) Delayed Draw Term Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including Section 2.2, and in reliance upon the representations and warranties of the Borrowers contained herein, each Term Lender agrees (severally, not jointly or jointly and severally) to make additional Term Loans (the “Delayed Draw Term Loans” and such loans comprising the “DDTL Facility”) during the DDTL Availability Period to Borrowers, in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed the amount of such Term Lender’s then outstanding Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment; provided, that after giving effect to the making of such Delayed Draw Term Loan, in no event shall the aggregate Term Loans outstanding exceed the Borrowing Base then in effect. Each Term Lender’s Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment shall be permanently reduced immediately and without further action upon the making of the Delayed Draw Term Loan in an amount equal to the amount of such Term Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of such Delayed Draw Term Loan. Any principal amount of the Delayed Draw Term Loan which is repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed.

(b) [Reserved].

(d) Protective Overadvances. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Term Agent may require the Term Lenders to make advances (a “Protective Overadvance”) so long as the Term Agent determines, in its sole discretion, such Protective Overadvance is necessary or desirable to preserve or protect any Collateral, or to enhance the collectability or repayment of Obligations, or to pay any other amounts chargeable to Borrowers under any Loan Documents, including costs, fees and expenses. If a Protective Overadvance is made pursuant to the preceding sentence, then each Term Lender shall be obligated to make such Protective Overadvance based upon its Pro Rata Percentage thereof. All Protective Overadvances shall (i) bear interest at the default rate under Section 1.3(c), (ii) be due and payable upon demand of the Term Agent or of the Required Lenders, and (iii) constitute Obligations hereunder and be secured by the Collateral. Any Protective Overadvances made under this clause (d) shall be made by the Term Agent as determined by the Term Agent in its sole discretion.

1.2 Borrowing Procedures

(a) Procedure for Borrowing Term Loans.

(i) Initial Term Loan. Borrower Representative shall deliver to Term Agent a written request substantially in the form of Exhibit E (a “Notice of Borrowing”) executed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower Representative no later than for each Notice of Borrowing requesting an Adjusted Term SOFR Rate Term Loan, 12:00 p.m. New York City time at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date (or such later date as Term Agent may agree), specifying (i) the principal amount of the proposed Initial Term Loan, which shall be in the amount of the lesser of (x) the aggregate Initial Term Loan Commitments and (y) the Borrowing Base, (ii) the initial Interest Period with respect thereto, and (iii) the Borrower(s) of the Initial Term Loan. Term Agent and the Term Lenders may act without liability upon the basis of written notice believed by the Term Agent in good faith to be from any Borrower (or from any Responsible Officer thereof designated in writing purportedly from any Borrower to Term Agent). Term Agent and each Term Lender shall be entitled to rely conclusively on any Responsible Officer’s authority to request an Initial Term Loan on behalf of any Borrower until Term Agent receives written notice to the contrary. Term Agent and the Term Lenders shall have no duty to verify the authenticity of the signature appearing on any Notice of Borrowing or the use of the proceeds of such proposed Term Loan.

(ii) Not more than five (5) times during the DDTL Availability Period, the Borrower may deliver to Term Agent a Notice of Borrowing executed by a Responsible Officer no later than 12:00 p.m. New York City time at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the proposed Delayed Draw Borrowing Date, or, in each case, such later date as Term Agent may agree, specifying (i) the principal amount of the proposed Delayed Draw Term Loan, which shall be requested in amounts no less than $1,000,0000 and a multiple thereof, but shall not exceed the remaining unfunded Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment, (ii) the initial Interest Period with respect thereto, (iii) the Borrower(s) of the Delayed Draw Term Loan, and (iv) the proposed Delayed Draw Borrowing Date; provided that Borrower Representative shall not request, and no Term Lender shall be required to fund more than two (2) Delayed Draw Term Loans per Fiscal Quarter. Term Agent and the Term Lenders may act without liability upon the basis of written notice believed by the Term Agent in good faith to be from any Borrower (or from any Responsible Officer thereof designated in writing purportedly from any Borrower to Term Agent). Term Agent and each Term Lender shall be entitled to rely conclusively on any Responsible Officer’s authority to request a Delayed Draw Term Loan on behalf of any Borrower until the Term Agent receives written notice to the contrary. Term Agent and the Term Lenders shall have no duty to verify the authenticity of the signature appearing on any Notice of Borrowing or the use of the proceeds of such proposed Loan.

(b) Notice of Borrowing Irrevocable. Each Notice of Borrowing pursuant to this Section 1.2 shall be irrevocable and Borrower shall be bound to make a Borrowing in accordance therewith.

1.4 Interest.

(a) Except as otherwise set forth herein, all Loans and other Obligations each shall bear interest at the Adjusted Base Rate or the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate, as applicable, plus the Applicable Margin on the unpaid principal amount thereof. Interest on Loans shall accrue from the date made and interest on other Obligations shall accrue from the date such other Obligations are due and payable (including as the result of any Mandatory Prepayment Event, Bankruptcy Event or otherwise) until, in all cases, paid in full in cash in immediately available funds.

(b) Subject to Sections 1.4(c) and 9.4, the Term Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the date when made at a rate per annum equal to Adjusted Term SOFR Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin. Each determination of an interest rate by the Term Agent shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers and the Term Lenders in the absence of manifest error. All computations of fees and interest payable under this Agreement shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed. Interest and fees shall accrue during each period during which interest, or such fees are computed from the first day thereof to the last day thereof. All Loans shall bear interest from and including the first day of the applicable Interest Period to (but not including) the last day of such Interest Period.

(c) Interest on the Term Loan shall be paid in cash in arrears on each Interest Payment Date. Interest shall also be paid in cash on the date of any payment or prepayment of the Term Loan (on the amount so paid or prepaid) and on each Termination Date with respect to the applicable Loan subject to such Termination Date.

(d) At the election of the Term Agent or the Required Lenders while any Event of Default exists (or automatically, after a Bankruptcy Event occurs), the Borrowers shall pay interest (after as well as before entry of judgment thereon to the extent permitted by law) on the Term Loan under the Loan Documents from and after the occurrence of such Event of Default at a rate per annum which is determined by adding three percent (3.00%) per annum to the interest rate then in effect. All such interest shall be payable on demand of the Term Agent or the Required Lenders.

1.5 Loan Accounts.

(a) The Term Agent, on behalf of the Term Lenders, shall record on its books and records the amount of the Term Loan, the interest rate applicable, all payments of principal and interest thereon and the principal balance thereof from time to time outstanding. The Term Agent shall deliver to the Borrower Representative, at the reasonable request of the Borrower Representative, a loan statement setting forth such record for the period so requested. Such record shall, absent manifest error, be conclusive evidence of the amount of the Term Loan made by the Term Lenders to the Borrowers and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so, or any failure to deliver such loan statement shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrowers hereunder (and under any Term Note) to pay any amount owing with respect to the Term Loan or provide the basis for any claim against the Term Agent or any Term Lender.

(b) The Term Agent, acting as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers solely for Tax purposes and solely with respect to the actions described in this Section 1.5(b), shall establish and maintain at its address referred to in Section 8.2 (or at such other address as the Term Agent may notify the Borrower Representative) (A) a record of ownership (the “Register”) in which the Term Agent agrees to register by book entry the interests (including any rights to receive payment hereunder) of the Term Agent and each Term Lender in the Term Loan and any assignment of any such interest or right and (B) accounts in the Register in accordance with its usual practice in which it shall record (1) the names and addresses of the Term Lenders (and each change thereto pursuant to Section 8.9), (2) the outstanding amount of the Term Loan, (3) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or paid, and (4) any other payment received by the Term Agent from any Borrower and its application to the Obligations.

(c) The Borrowers, the Term Agent and the Term Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Term Lender for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register is intended to comply with the requirements set forth under United States Treasury Regulations 5f.103-1(c). Information contained in the Register with respect to any Term Lender shall be available for access by the Borrower Representative during normal business hours and from time to time upon at least one Business Day’s prior notice. No Term Lender shall, in such capacity, have access to or be otherwise permitted to review any information in the Register other than information with respect to such Term Lender unless otherwise agreed by the Term Agent.

1.6 Optional Prepayments of the Term Loan.

(a) Optional Prepayments. The Borrowers may, upon prior written notice to the Term Agent from the Borrower Representative, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay the Term Loan in whole or in part; provided that (i) such notice must be received by the Term Agent not later than 4:00 p.m., New York time, two (2) Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of any portion of the Term Loan, and (ii) such prepayment shall be accompanied by interest on the amount so prepaid and, if such prepayment results in a MOIC Trigger Event, any related Exit Fee in accordance with Section 1.8. Any amounts prepaid pursuant to this Section 1.6 in respect of the principal amount of the Term Loan shall be applied to the principal repayment installments thereof in inverse order of maturity.

(b) Notice. Once provided, any notice of a prepayment of the Term Loan shall be revocable by the Borrower Representative to the extent repayment is contingent upon receipt of proceeds from a financing, and the Term Agent will promptly notify each applicable Term Lender thereof and of such Term Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of such prepayment. The payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Together with each prepayment under this Section 1.6, if such prepayment results in a MOIC Trigger Event, the Borrowers shall pay any related Exit Fee.

(the events described in clauses (i) through (v) of this clause (c) being collectively referred to herein as “Mandatory Prepayment Events”),

then (A) the Borrower Representative shall promptly notify the Term Agent in writing of such Mandatory Prepayment Event (including the amount of the estimated Net Proceeds to be received by a Loan Party and/or such Subsidiary in respect thereof) and (B) within two (2) Business Days (or immediately in the case of any issuance or incurrence of Indebtedness that is not Permitted Indebtedness or a Change in Control, as the case may be), after receipt by a Loan Party and/or such Subsidiary of any Net Proceeds of such Mandatory Prepayment Event, the Borrower Representative shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, an amount equal to 100% of such Net Proceeds to the Term Agent for distribution to the Term Lenders as a prepayment of the Term Loan, which prepayment shall be applied in accordance with Section 1.9(c)(i) or Section 1.9(c)(ii), as the case may be; provided, however, that so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (A) (x) up to $500,000 in Net Proceeds in the aggregate during any Fiscal Year received under either clauses (i) (solely to the extent related to a Disposition of Intellectual Property under Section 5.2(e)) or clause (ii) shall not be required to be so applied and (y) up to $200,000 in Net Proceeds in the aggregate during any Fiscal Year received under clause (i) (solely to the extent related to a Disposition under Section 5.2(c)) shall not be required to be so applied and (C) up to $250,000 in Net Proceeds in the aggregate received under either clause (i) or (ii) shall not be required to be so applied; provided further that (B) the Loan Parties shall be permitted to use such Net Proceeds to replace, repair, restore or rebuild the assets subject to an Event of Loss or to replace or purchase similar assets in the case of a Disposition, provided that (i) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (ii) any such Net Proceeds arising from such Event of Loss or Disposition not used to so replace or purchase similar assets following such Disposition, or replace, repair, restore or rebuild the assets subject to such Event of Loss, as the case may be, within 180 days (or within ninety (90) days after being committed if committed to be so reinvested within such 180 day period) after the receipt of such Net Proceeds shall be applied to the prepayment of the Term Loan in accordance with Section 1.9(c)(i) or Section 1.9(c)(ii), as the case may be. For the avoidance of doubt, any prepayments of the principal amount of the Term Loan pursuant to this Section 1.7(c) shall be subject to the Exit Fee (to the extent resulting in a MOIC Trigger Event) and shall be accompanied by interest on the amount so repaid.

(d) Borrowing Base Ratio. No later than the second Business Day following each date upon which a Borrowing Base Certificate is due to be delivered pursuant to Section 4.1, Borrower shall prepay Loans as set forth in Section 2.14(a) in an aggregate amount sufficient to cause the Borrowing Base Ratio, as of the last day of such fiscal month, on a pro forma basis giving effect to such prepayment, to be no less than 100%. For the avoidance of doubt, any prepayments of the principal amount of the Term Loan pursuant to this Section 1.7(d) shall be subject to the Exit Fee (to the extent such principal payment results in a MOIC Trigger Event) and shall be accompanied by interest on the amount so repaid.

(e) No Implied Consent or Waiver of Default. Provisions contained in this Section 1.7 for the application of proceeds of certain transactions shall not be deemed to constitute consent of the Term Lenders to transactions that are not otherwise permitted by the terms hereof or the other Loan Documents or waiver of any Default or Event of Default.

1.8 Fees.

(a) Fee Letter. The ~~Borrowers~~Borrower Representative shall pay to the Term Agent, for its own account or for the account of any other Person entitled thereto (as applicable), in Dollars, fees in the amounts and at the times specified in the Fee Letter.

(b) Unused Line Fee. The Borrower Representative shall pay to Term Agent, for the ratable account of the Delayed Draw Term Lenders, a fee (the “Unused Line Fee”) in an amount equal to 1.00% per annum times the Average Delayed Draw Availability during the immediately preceding month (or portion thereof), which Unused Line Fee shall be due and payable monthly in arrears on the first day of each month from and after the Closing Date up to the end of the DDTL Availability Period.

(c) First Amendment DDTL Commitment Fee. Borrower Representative shall pay to the Term Agent, for the ratable account of the Term Lenders, the First Amendment DDTL Commitment Fee on or prior to the First Amendment Effective Date.

(cd) Exit Fee.

(i) To the extent any MOIC Trigger Event occurs prior to the date that is the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Closing Date, the Borrower Representative shall pay to the Term Agent for the account of the Term Lenders a fee equal to an amount necessary to meet the Minimum MOIC Amount. To the extent any MOIC Trigger Event occurs on or after the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Closing Date, the Borrower Representative shall pay to the Term Agent for the account of the Term Lenders a fee in an amount equal to $1,200,000 (the “MOIC Fee”, together with the Minimum MOIC Amount, the “Exit Fee”); provided that the MOIC Fee shall not be payable with respect to any MOIC Trigger Event that does not relate to the Initial Term Loans.

The Exit Fee shall be fully earned on the Closing Date and due and payable immediately upon the occurrence of any MOIC Trigger Event. The Exit Fee shall be in addition to any reimbursement obligations or other amounts payable in connection with the Loan Documents.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, it is understood and agreed that if the Term Loans and/or the related Obligations are accelerated for any reason, including because of default or the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding or by operation of law or otherwise, the Exit Fee shall automatically be due and payable upon the occurrence of the events set forth in Sections 1.8(cd)(i) in accordance with the terms hereof as though such Indebtedness was voluntarily prepaid or repaid at such time and shall constitute part of the Obligations, whether due to acceleration pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (in which case it shall be due immediately, upon the giving of notice to the Borrower Representative in accordance with Section 6.2(b), or automatically, in accordance with Section 6.2(a), by operation of law or otherwise (including, without limitation, on account of any Bankruptcy Event or any other MOIC Trigger Event (including without limitation, a Bankruptcy Event occurring automatically upon any Borrower or any other Loan Party becoming insolvent within the meaning of 11 U.S.C. §101(32)), in view of the impracticability and extreme difficulty of ascertaining the actual amount of damages to the Term Lenders or profits lost by the Term Lenders as a result of such acceleration, and by mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable estimation and calculation of the lost profits or damages of the Term Lenders as a result thereof)). Any Exit Fee payable pursuant to the Loan Documents shall be presumed to be the liquidated damages sustained by each Term Lender as the result of the applicable MOIC Trigger Event and each Borrower agrees that the Exit Fee is reasonable under the circumstances currently existing. All parties to this Agreement agree and acknowledge that the Term Lenders will have suffered damages on account of the MOIC Trigger Event and that, in view of the difficulty in ascertaining the amount of such damages, the Exit Fee constitutes reasonable compensation and liquidated damages to compensate the Term Lenders on account thereof. In the event the Obligations are reinstated in connection with or following any applicable MOIC Trigger Event, it is understood and agreed that the Obligations shall include any Exit Fee payable in accordance with the Loan Documents. The Exit Fee shall also be payable in the event the Obligations are satisfied or released by foreclosure (whether by power of judicial proceeding), deed in lieu of foreclosure or by any other similar means. If the Exit Fee becomes due and payable pursuant to the Loan Documents and is not paid when due, the Exit Fee shall be deemed to be principal of the Term Loans and Obligations under the Loan Documents and interest shall accrue on the full principal amount of the Term Loans (including on the Exit Fee) from and after the applicable MOIC Trigger Event. In the event that any Exit Fee is determined not to be due and payable by order of any court of competent jurisdiction, including, without limitation, by operation of the Bankruptcy Code, despite such a triggering event having occurred, the Exit Fee shall nonetheless constitute Obligations under this Agreement and the Loan Documents for all purposes hereunder and thereunder. EACH BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE EXIT FEE AND ANY DEFENSE TO PAYMENT, WHETHER SUCH DEFENSE MAY BE BASED IN PUBLIC POLICY, AMBIGUITY, OR OTHERWISE. Each Borrower, Term Agent and the Term Lenders acknowledge and agree that any Exit Fee due and payable in accordance with the Loan Documents does not and shall not be deemed to constitute unmatured interest, whether under Section 502(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise. Each Borrower further acknowledges and agrees, and waives any argument to the contrary, that payment of such amount does not constitute a penalty or an otherwise unenforceable or invalid obligation. The parties have agreed on the Exit Fee because it captures the attractiveness of the Investment and the opportunity cost to each Lender for its capital Investment because each Lender is an investment fund with limited ability to recycle capital and the Exit Fee reflects the parties’ view on risk return. All parties to this Agreement agree (and each person that accepts or assumes an interest in the Term Loans or Obligations from time to time by their acceptance or assumption of such Term Loan or interest through an Assignment agrees) that the Exit Fee is not to be construed as part of a headline interest rate, but instead compensation specifically reflecting the Term Lenders’ agreement to forego receiving additional compensation, fees and pricing on the Closing Date in return for the Borrower Representative’s agreement (on behalf of itself and each other Borrower) to pay the Exit Fee and that the payment of such amounts reflect each Term Lender’s capital anticipated to be returned for the specific investment of the Term Lender’s capital after taking into account the relative risk of the investment and agreement to receive a cash payment of that portion of their compensation at a date later than the Closing Date. Each Borrower expressly acknowledges and agrees that, prior to executing this Agreement, it has had the opportunity to review, evaluate, and negotiate the Exit Fee and the calculations thereof with its advisors, and that (i) the Exit Fee are each reasonable and each is the product of an arm’s-length transaction between sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel, (ii) the Exit Fee shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made, (iii) there has been a course of conduct between the Term Lenders and the Loan Parties giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the Exit Fee, (iv) the Borrower shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this Section 1.8(cd), (v) the Borrower Representative’s (on behalf of itself and each other Borrower) agreement to pay the Exit Fee is a material inducement to the Term Lender’s agreement to fund the Term Loans, and (vi) the Exit Fee represent a good faith, reasonable estimate and calculation of the lost profits, losses or other damages of the Term Lenders and that it would be impractical and extremely difficult to ascertain the actual amount of damages to the Term Lenders or profits lost by the Term Lenders as a result of any such applicable MOIC Trigger Event.

1.9 Payments by the Borrowers.

(a) The Borrower promises to repay to the Term Agent for the ratable account of the Term Lenders all amounts owed hereunder (including the MOIC Amount with respect to the Loans) in full indefeasibly in immediately available funds in cash on the Termination Date or earlier, if otherwise required by the terms hereof. All payments (including prepayments) to be made by each Borrower on account of principal, interest, fees and other amounts required hereunder shall be made without set-off, recoupment, counterclaim or deduction of any kind, and shall, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, be made to the Term Agent (for the ratable account of the Persons entitled thereto) and shall be made in Dollars and by wire transfer in immediately available funds (which shall be the exclusive means of payment hereunder), no later than 4:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date due. Any payment which is received by the Term Agent later than 4:00 p.m. (New York time) may in the Term Agent’s discretion be deemed to have been received on the immediately succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue.

(b) If any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made, and shall be deemed to be due, on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or fees, as the case may be.

(c) (i) Subject to Section 1.9(c)(ii) and the Intercreditor Agreement, all payments received by the Term Agent and the Term Lenders in respect of any Obligation shall be applied to the Obligations as follows:

first, to the payment of any Protective Overadvance funded by the Term Agent or any Term Lender;

second, to payment of interest, fees (including, without limitation, any Exit Fee), costs and expenses and any other amounts then due and payable by the Borrowers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents;

third, to payment of the principal of the Term Loan;

fourth, any remainder shall be for the account of the Borrowers or whoever may be lawfully entitled thereto.

In carrying out the foregoing, (A) amounts received shall be applied in the numerical order provided until exhausted prior to the application to the next succeeding category and (B) each of the Term Lenders or other Persons entitled to payment shall receive an amount equal to its Pro Rata Percentage of amounts available to be applied.

(ii) Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, (A) during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Term Agent may, and shall upon the direction of Required Lenders, apply any and all payments received by the Term Agent and the Term Lenders in respect of any Obligation in accordance with clauses first through sixth below, and (B) without limiting the foregoing, all amounts collected or received by the Term Agent after any or all of the Obligations have been accelerated (so long as such acceleration has not been rescinded), including proceeds of Collateral, shall be applied as follows:

first, pro rata, to the payment of any Protective Overadvance funded by the Term Agent or any Term Lender and fees, costs and expenses, including Attorney Costs, of the Term Agent payable or reimbursable by the Borrowers under the Loan Documents;

second, to payment of Attorney Costs of the Term Lenders payable or reimbursable by the Borrowers under this Agreement (subject to any limitations set forth herein (including Section 8.5));

third, to payment of all accrued unpaid interest on the Obligations and fees (including, without limitation, any Exit Fee) owed to the Term Agent and the Term Lenders;

fourth, to payment of principal of the Term Loan;

fifth, to payment of any other amounts owing constituting Obligations; and

sixth, any remainder shall be for the account of the Borrowers or whoever may be lawfully entitled thereto.

1.10 Return of Payments; Procedures.

(a) Return of Payments.

(i) If the Term Agent pays an amount to a Term Lender under this Agreement in the belief or expectation that a related payment has been or will be received by the Term Agent from the Borrowers and such related payment is not received by the Term Agent, then the Term Agent will be entitled to recover such amount from such Term Lender on demand without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.

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

(b) Procedures. The Term Agent is hereby authorized by each Borrower and each Secured Party to establish reasonable procedures (and to amend such procedures in a reasonable manner from time to time) to facilitate administration and servicing of the Term Loan and other matters incidental thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Term Agent is hereby authorized to establish reasonable procedures to make available or deliver, or to accept, notices, documents and similar items on, by posting to or submitting and/or completion on, E-Systems.

In the event the Borrower Representative desires to cure a Financial Covenant Default, the Borrower Representative shall deliver to the Term Agent irrevocable written notice of its intent to cure (a “Cure Notice”) no later than one (1) Business Day after the date on which financial statements and a Compliance Certificate as of and for the period ending on the last day of the Fiscal Quarter as of which such Financial Covenant Default occurred (the “Testing Date”) are required to be delivered; provided, however, that in no event shall the Borrower Representative be permitted to exercise Equity Cure Rights hereunder (x) more than four (4) times during the term of this Agreement or (y) more than two (2) times during any four (4) consecutive Fiscal Quarters. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent that the Borrower Representative exercises the Equity Cure Right, no Loan Party or Subsidiary thereof shall be permitted to make cash payments in respect of the Second Lien Term Loan Agreement or to incur any new Indebtedness, and/or to make any Restricted Payments pursuant to Sections 5.10(e) or (f) or Investments pursuant to Section 5.4(i) for the subsequent twelve (12) calendar months.

(b) Equity Cure Securities. In the event the Borrower Representative delivers a Cure Notice, there shall be purchased on or after the Testing Date the common equity interests (or such other equity interests on terms reasonably acceptable to the Term Agent) of (or cash capital contributions on or after the Testing Date to) MediaCo, the proceeds of which are then contributed to the capital of any Borrower (“Equity Cure Securities”) for cash consideration in an amount equal to (but not greater than) the amount needed to cure the applicable Financial Covenant Default (the “Financial Covenant Cure Amount”) no later than five (5) Business Days after the date on which financial statements and a Compliance Certificate as of and for the period ending on the applicable Testing Date are required to be delivered (the “Required Contribution Date”). Such Financial Covenant Cure Amount received by Borrower Representative shall be included in the calculation of Consolidated EBITDA solely for the purposes of determining compliance with the financial covenant in Section 5.22 at the end of the Fiscal Quarter in which such Financial Covenant Default occurred and any subsequent period that includes such Fiscal Quarter but shall be disregarded for purposes of the calculation of Consolidated EBITDA for all other purposes. To the extent any of the Net Proceeds of any Equity Cure Securities shall be used by any Borrower to prepay Term Loans, the portion of the Term Loans that is so prepaid will not be taken into account for purposes of determining actual compliance with the financial covenant in Section 5.22 for the Fiscal Quarter with respect to which the Financial Covenant Cure Amount is made. Net Proceeds of any Equity Cure Securities shall not be taken into account for cash netting purposes for the Fiscal Quarter with respect to which the Financial Covenant Cure Amount is made.

(c) Cure. Upon timely receipt by Borrower Representative in cash of the Financial Covenant Cure Amount, the Financial Covenant Default (and any Default or Event of Default resulting solely therefrom) shall be deemed cured and shall no longer be deemed to exist.

7.8 Expenses; Indemnities; Withholding.

(a) Each Term Lender agrees to reimburse the Term Agent and each of its Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by any Borrower) promptly upon demand, severally and ratably, for any costs and expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of financial, legal and other advisors and Other Taxes) that may be incurred by the Term Agent or any of its Related Persons in connection with the preparation, syndication, execution, delivery, administration, modification, consent, waiver or enforcement of, or the taking of any other action (whether through negotiations, through any work-out, bankruptcy, restructuring or other legal or other proceeding (including, without limitation, preparation for and/or response to any subpoena or request for document production relating thereto) or otherwise) in respect of, or legal advice with respect to its rights or responsibilities under, any Loan Document.

(b) Each Term Lender further agrees to indemnify the Term Agent and each of its Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by any Borrower), severally and ratably, from and against Liabilities (including, to the extent not indemnified pursuant to Section 7.8(c), Taxes, interests and penalties imposed for not properly withholding or backup withholding on payments made to or for the account of any Term Lender) that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Term Agent or any of its Related Persons in any matter relating to or arising out of, in connection with or as a result of any Loan Document or any other act, event or transaction related, contemplated in or attendant to any such document, or, in each case, any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Term Agent or any of its Related Persons under or with respect to any of the foregoing.

(c) To the extent required by any applicable law, the Term Agent may withhold from any payment to any Term Lender under a Loan Document an amount equal to any applicable withholding Tax. If the IRS or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Term Agent did not properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Term Lender (because the appropriate certification form was not delivered, was not properly executed, or fails to establish an exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax with respect to a particular type of payment, or because such Term Lender failed to notify the Term Agent or any other Person of a change in circumstances which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax ineffective, or for any other reason), or the Term Agent reasonably determines that it was required to withhold Taxes from a prior payment but failed to do so, such Term Lender shall promptly indemnify the Term Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Term Agent as Tax or otherwise, including penalties and interest, and together with all expenses incurred by the Term Agent, including legal expenses, allocated internal costs and out-of-pocket expenses. The Term Agent may offset against any payment to any Term Lender under a Loan Document, any applicable withholding Tax that was required to be withheld from any prior payment to such Term Lender, but which was not so withheld, as well as any other amounts for which the Term Agent is entitled to indemnification from such Term Lender under this Section 7.8(c).

7.9 Resignation.

(a) The Term Agent may resign at any time by delivering notice of such resignation to the Term Lenders and the Borrowers, effective on the date set forth in such notice or, if no such date is set forth therein, upon the date such notice shall be effective in accordance with the terms of this Section 7.9. If the Term Agent delivers any such notice, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Term Agent. If, after thirty (30) days after the date of the retiring Term Agent’s notice of resignation, no successor Term Agent has been appointed by the Required Lenders that has accepted such appointment, then the retiring Term Agent may, on behalf of the Term Lenders, appoint a successor Term Agent from among the Term Lenders. Each appointment under this clause (a) shall be subject to the prior consent of the Borrowers, which may not be unreasonably withheld but shall not be required during the continuance of an Event of Default. No Disqualified Lender may be appointed Term Agent.

(b) Effective immediately upon its resignation, (i) the retiring Term Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents, (ii) the Term Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Term Agent until a successor Term Agent shall have accepted a valid appointment hereunder, (iii) the retiring Term Agent and its Related Persons shall no longer have the benefit of any provision of any Loan Document other than with respect to any actions taken or omitted to be taken while such retiring Term Agent was, or because such Term Agent had been, validly acting as the Term Agent under the Loan Documents and (iv) subject to its rights under Section 7.3, the retiring Term Agent shall take such action as may be reasonably necessary to assign to the successor Term Agent its rights as Term Agent under the Loan Documents. Effective immediately upon its acceptance of a valid appointment as the Term Agent, a successor Term Agent shall succeed to, and become vested with, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Term Agent under the Loan Documents.

7.10 Release of Collateral or Borrowers. Each Term Lender hereby consents to the release and hereby directs the Term Agent to release (or, in the case of clause (b)(ii) below, release or subordinate) the following:

(a) any Borrower from its Obligations if all of the Stock and Stock Equivalents of such Person are sold or transferred in a transaction permitted under the Loan Documents (including pursuant to a waiver or consent); and

(b) any Lien held by the Term Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties against (i) any Collateral that is sold, transferred, conveyed or otherwise disposed of by a Borrower in a transaction permitted by the Loan Documents (including pursuant to a waiver or consent), and (ii) all of the Collateral and all Borrowers, upon (A) payment and satisfaction in full in immediately available funds of all of the Term Loan and all other Obligations, (B) deposit of cash collateral (or other arrangements reasonably acceptable to the Term Agent) with respect to all contingent Obligations, in amounts and on terms and conditions and with parties satisfactory to the Term Agent and each Indemnitee that is, or may be, owed such Obligations (excluding contingent indemnification Obligations as to which no claim has been asserted) and (C) to the extent requested by the Term Agent, receipt by the Term Agent and the Secured Parties of liability releases from the Borrowers each in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Term Agent.

Each of the Term Lenders hereby directs the Term Agent, and the Term Agent hereby agrees, upon receipt of at least five (5) Business Days’ advance notice from the Borrower Representative, to execute and deliver or file such documents and to perform other actions reasonably necessary to effect such releases when and as directed in this Section 7.10.

Each Borrower and each Secured Party hereto acknowledges and agrees that the use of Electronic Transmissions is not necessarily secure and that there are risks associated with such use, including risks of interception, disclosure and abuse and each indicates it assumes and accepts such risks by hereby authorizing the transmission of Electronic Transmissions.

(b) Signatures. Subject to the provisions of Section 8.2(a), (i)(A) no posting to any E-System shall be denied legal effect merely because it is made electronically, (i) each E‑Signature on any such posting shall be deemed sufficient to satisfy any requirement for a “signature” and (B) each such posting shall be deemed sufficient to satisfy any requirement for a “writing”, in each case including pursuant to any Loan Document, any applicable provision of any UCC, the federal Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act and any substantive or procedural Requirements of Law governing such subject matter, (ii) each such posting that is not readily capable of bearing either a signature or a reproduction of a signature may be signed, and shall be deemed signed, by attaching to, or logically associating with such posting, an E-Signature, upon which the Term Agent, each Secured Party and each Borrower may rely and assume the authenticity thereof, (iii) each such posting containing a signature, a reproduction of a signature or an E-Signature shall, for all intents and purposes, have the same effect and weight as a signed paper original and (iv) each party hereto or beneficiary hereto agrees not to contest the validity or enforceability of any posting on any E-System or E-Signature on any such posting under the provisions of any applicable Requirements of Law requiring certain documents to be in writing or signed; provided, however, that nothing herein shall limit such party’s or beneficiary’s right to contest whether any posting to any E-System or E-Signature has been altered after transmission.

(d) LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. ALL E-SYSTEMS AND ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSIONS SHALL BE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. NONE OF THE TERM AGENT, ANY TERM LENDER OR ANY OF THEIR RELATED PERSONS WARRANTS THE ACCURACY, ADEQUACY OR COMPLETENESS OF ANY E-SYSTEMS OR ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION AND DISCLAIMS ALL LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS THEREIN.

8.4 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Term Agent or any Term Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. No course of dealing between any Borrower, any Affiliate of any Borrower, the Term Agent or any Term Lender shall be effective to amend, modify or discharge any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

8.5 Costs and Expenses.

Furthermore, each of the Borrowers and each other Borrower executing this Agreement waives and agrees not to assert against any Indemnitee, and shall cause each other Borrower to waive and not assert against any Indemnitee, any right of contribution with respect to any Liabilities that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any Related Person other than to the extent such liability has resulted primarily from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or its Related Persons, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment or order. Without limiting the provisions of Section 9.1, this Section 8.6(a) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

(b) Without limiting the foregoing and subject to the limitations of the foregoing, “Indemnified Matters” includes all Environmental Liabilities, including those arising from, or otherwise involving, any property of any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any actual or alleged damage to property or natural resources or harm or injury alleged to have resulted from any Release of Hazardous Materials on, upon, under, or migrating from such property or natural resource or any property contiguous to any property of any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, whether or not, with respect to any such Environmental Liabilities, any Indemnitee is a mortgagee pursuant to any leasehold mortgage, a mortgagee in possession, the successor-in-interest to any Borrower or any Related Person of any Borrower or the owner, lessee or operator of any property of any Related Person through any foreclosure action, in each case except to the extent such Environmental Liabilities (i) are incurred solely following foreclosure by Term Agent or following Term Agent or any Term Lender having become the successor-in-interest to any Borrower or any Related Person of any Borrower and (ii) are not attributable to acts of Borrower or any of its Related Persons.

8.7 Marshaling; Payments Set Aside. No Secured Party shall be under any obligation to marshal any Property in favor of any Borrower or any other Person or against or in payment of any Obligation. To the extent that any Secured Party receives a payment from any Borrower, from any other Borrower, from the proceeds of the Collateral, from the exercise of its rights of setoff, any enforcement action or otherwise, and such payment is subsequently, in whole or in part, invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, then to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not occurred.

8.8 Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided that any Assignment by any Term Lender shall be subject to the provisions of Section 8.9, and provided, further, that neither of the Borrowers nor any other Borrower may assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Term Agent and each Term Lender. Each Term Lender that becomes party hereto by Assignment agrees to promptly deliver to the Term Agent an Administrative Questionnaire in the form of Exhibit A.

8.9 Assignments and Participations; Binding Effect.

(a) Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Borrowers and the Term Agent and when the Term Agent shall have been notified by each Term Lender that such Term Lender has executed it. Thereafter, it shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of, but only to the benefit of, the Borrowers (except for Article VII), the Term Agent, each Term Lender and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Except as expressly provided in any Loan Document (including in Section 7.9 and Section 8.9), none of the Borrowers, any other Borrower, any Term Lender or the Term Agent shall have the right to assign any rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein, and any assignment in contravention of the foregoing shall be null and void.

(b) Right to Assign. Each Term Lender may sell, transfer, negotiate or assign (a “Sale”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations hereunder (including all or a portion of the Term Loan owing to it) to (i) any existing Term Lender, (ii) any Affiliate or Approved Fund of any existing Term Lender or (iii) any other Person (that is not a natural Person) acceptable to the Term Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower Representative (which acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld and shall be deemed to have been given, other than with respect to a purported assignment to a Disqualified Lender, unless an objection is delivered to the Term Agent in writing within ten (10) Business Days after a notice of a proposed Sale is delivered to the Borrower Representative); provided, however, that (w) the aggregate commitment and/or outstanding principal amount (determined as of the Closing Date of the applicable Assignment) of the portion of the Term Loan subject to any such Sale shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 and increments of $500,000 in excess thereof, unless such Sale is made to an existing Term Lender or an Affiliate or Approved Fund of any existing Term Lender, is of the assignor’s (together with its Affiliates and Approved Funds) entire interest in such facility or is made with the prior consent of Term Agent, (x) such Sales shall be effective only upon the acknowledgement in writing of such Sale by the Term Agent, and (y) interest and fees accrued prior to and through the date of any such Sale may not be assigned. Without limiting the foregoing, no Sale shall be made to (i) a Borrower or an Affiliate of a Borrower, (ii) a holder of Subordinated Indebtedness or an Affiliate of such a holder or (iii) a Disqualified Lender. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 8.9 to the contrary, any assignment or participation that would be prohibited by or violate the FCC’s Equity/Debt Plus Attribution Standard shall be prohibited.

(c) Procedure. The parties to each Sale made in reliance on clause (b) above (other than those described in clause (e) or (f) below) shall execute and deliver to the Term Agent an Assignment via an electronic settlement system designated by the Term Agent (or, if previously agreed with the Term Agent, via a manual execution and delivery of the Assignment) evidencing such Sale, together with any existing Term Note subject to such Sale (or any affidavit of loss therefor acceptable to the Term Agent), any Tax forms required to be delivered pursuant to Section 9.1 and payment of an assignment fee in the amount of $3,500 to the Term Agent, unless waived or reduced by the Term Agent; provided, that (i) if a Sale by a Term Lender is made to an Affiliate or an Approved Fund of such assigning Term Lender, then no assignment fee shall be due in connection with such Sale, and (ii) if a Sale by a Term Lender is made to an assignee that is not an Affiliate or Approved Fund of such assignor Term Lender, and concurrently to one or more Affiliates or Approved Funds of such assignee, then only one assignment fee of $3,500 shall be due in connection with such Sale (unless waived or reduced by the Term Agent). Upon receipt of all the foregoing, and conditioned upon such receipt and, if such Assignment is made in accordance with clause (iii) of the first sentence of Section 8.9(b), upon the Term Agent (and the Borrower Representative, if applicable) consenting to such Assignment, from and after the Closing Date specified in such Assignment, the Term Agent shall record or cause to be recorded in the Register the information contained in such Assignment.

(d) Effectiveness. Subject to the recording of an Assignment by the Term Agent in the Register pursuant to Section 1.4(b), (i) the assignee thereunder shall become a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations under the Loan Documents have been assigned to such assignee pursuant to such Assignment, shall have the rights and obligations of a Term Lender, (ii) any applicable Term Note shall be transferred to such assignee through such entry and (iii) the assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations under this Agreement have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment, relinquish its rights (except for those surviving the payment in full of the Obligations) and be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents, other than those relating to events or circumstances occurring prior to such assignment (and, in the case of an Assignment covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Term Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, such Term Lender shall cease to be a party hereto).

(e) Grant of Security Interests. In addition to the other rights provided in this Section 8.9, each Term Lender may grant a security interest in, or otherwise assign as collateral, any of its rights under this Agreement, whether now owned or hereafter acquired (including rights to payments of principal or interest on the Term Loan), to (i) any federal reserve bank (pursuant to Regulation A of the Federal Reserve Board), without notice to the Term Agent or (ii) any holder of, or trustee for the benefit of the holders of, such Term Lender’s Indebtedness or equity securities, by notice to the Term Agent; provided, however, that no such holder or trustee, whether because of such grant or assignment or any foreclosure thereon (unless such foreclosure is made through an assignment in accordance with clause (b) above), shall be entitled to any rights of such Term Lender hereunder and no such Term Lender shall be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder.

(f) Participants and SPVs. In addition to the other rights provided in this Section 8.9, each Term Lender may, (i) with notice to the Term Agent, grant to an SPV the option to make all or any part of the Term Loan that such Term Lender would otherwise be required to make hereunder (and the exercise of such option by such SPV and the making of the Term Loan pursuant thereto shall satisfy the obligation of such Term Lender to make such Term Loan hereunder) and such SPV may assign to such Term Lender the right to receive payment with respect to any Obligation and (ii) without notice to or consent from the Term Agent or the Borrowers, sell participations to one or more Persons (other than any Disqualified Lender) in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents (including all its rights and obligations with respect to the Term Loan); provided, however, that, whether as a result of any term of any Loan Document or of such grant or participation, (x) no such SPV or participant shall have a commitment, or be deemed to have made an offer to commit, to make any portion of the Term Loan hereunder, and, except as provided in the applicable option agreement, none shall be liable for any obligation of such Term Lender hereunder, (y) such Term Lender’s rights and obligations, and the rights and obligations of the Borrowers and the Secured Parties towards such Term Lender, under any Loan Document shall remain unchanged and each other party hereto shall continue to deal solely with such Term Lender, which shall remain the holder of the Obligations in the Register, except that (A) each such participant and SPV shall be entitled to the benefit of Article IX, but, with respect to Section 9.1, only to the extent such participant or SPV delivers the Tax forms such Term Lender is required to collect pursuant to Section 9.1(f) (which Tax forms will be delivered to the participating Term Lender) and then only to the extent of any amount to which such Term Lender would be entitled in the absence of any such grant or participation, except for any increase in such amount resulting from a change in law occurring after such grant or participation and (B) each such SPV may receive other payments that would otherwise be made to such Term Lender with respect to the portion of the Term Loan funded by such SPV to the extent provided in the applicable option agreement and set forth in a notice provided to the Term Agent by such SPV and such Term Lender, provided, however, that in no case (including pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above) shall an SPV or participant have the right to enforce any of the terms of any Loan Document, and (z) the consent of such SPV or participant shall not be required (either directly, as a restraint on such Term Lender’s ability to consent hereunder or otherwise) for any amendments, waivers or consents with respect to any Loan Document or to exercise or refrain from exercising any powers or rights such Term Lender may have under or in respect of the Loan Documents (including the right to enforce or direct enforcement of the Obligations), except for those described in clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 8.1(a) with respect to amounts, or dates fixed for payment of amounts, to which such participant or SPV would otherwise be entitled and, in the case of participants, except for those described in clause (iv) of Section 8.1(a). No party hereto shall institute (and the Borrowers shall cause each other Borrower not to institute) against any SPV grantee of an option pursuant to this clause (f) any bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, liquidation or similar proceeding, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper of such SPV; provided, however, that each Term Lender having designated an SPV as such agrees to indemnify each Indemnitee against any Liability that may be incurred by, or asserted against, such Indemnitee as a result of failing to institute such proceeding (including a failure to be reimbursed by such SPV for any such Liability). The agreement in the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations. Each Term Lender that sells a participation or grants an option to an SPV pursuant to this Section 8.9(f) shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each such participant or SPV and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each such participant’s or SPV’s interest in the Term Loan or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Term Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any SPV or participant or any information relating to an SPV’s or participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Term Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation or option for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Term Agent (in its capacity as Term Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

8.10 Non-Public Information; Confidentiality.

(b) Confidential Information. Each Term Lender and Term Agent agrees to maintain, in accordance with its customary practices, the confidentiality of information obtained by it pursuant to any Loan Document, except that such information may be disclosed (i) with the Borrower Representative’s consent, (ii) to Related Persons, funding sources and investment committees of such Term Lender, or Term Agent, as the case may be, that are advised of the confidential nature of such information and are instructed to keep such information confidential in accordance with the terms hereof, (iii) to the extent such information presently is or hereafter becomes (A) publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 8.10 or (B) available to such Term Lender or Term Agent or any of their Related Persons, as the case may be, from a source (other than any Borrower) not known by them to be subject to disclosure restrictions, (iv) to the extent disclosure is required by applicable Requirements of Law or other legal process or requested or demanded by any Governmental Authority, (v) to the extent necessary or customary for inclusion in league table measurements, (vi) (A) on a confidential basis to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization, any examiner or any nationally recognized rating agency or (B) otherwise to the extent consisting of general portfolio information that does not identify Borrowers, (vii) to current or prospective assignees, SPVs (including the investors or prospective investors therein) or participants and to their respective Related Persons, in each case to the extent such assignees, investors, participants or Related Persons agree to be bound by provisions substantially similar to the provisions of this Section 8.10 (and such Person may disclose information to their respective Related Persons in accordance with clause (ii) above), in each case other than a Disqualified Lender, (viii) to any other party hereto, (ix) to any rating agency (provided that, prior to any such disclosure, such holder shall make the recipient of such Confidential Information aware of the confidential nature of the same), and (x) in connection with the exercise or enforcement of any right or remedy under any Loan Document, in connection with any litigation or other proceeding to which such Term Lender or Term Agent or any of their Related Persons is a party or bound, or to the extent necessary to respond to public statements or disclosures by Borrowers or their Related Persons referring to a Term Lender or Term Agent or any of their Related Persons. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Section 8.10 and those of any other Contractual Obligation entered into with any Borrower (whether or not a Loan Document), the terms of this Section 8.10 shall govern.

Neither the Term Agent or any Term Lender may publish advertising material (including press releases) relating to the financing transactions contemplated by this Agreement using any Borrower’s name, product photographs, logo or trademark without the prior consent of the Borrower Representative.

(d) Press Release and Related Matters. No Borrower shall, and no Borrower shall permit any of its Affiliates to, issue any press release or other public disclosure (other than any document filed with any Governmental Authority relating to a public offering of securities of any Borrower) using the name, logo or otherwise referring to WhiteHawk or of any of its Affiliates, the Loan Documents or any transaction contemplated therein to which Term Agent is party without the prior consent of WhiteHawk except to the extent required to do so under applicable Requirements of Law and then, only after consulting with WhiteHawk; provided, that no such consultation shall be required with respect to required SEC disclosures.

(e) Distribution of Materials to Term Lenders. The Borrowers acknowledge and agree that the Loan Documents and all reports, notices, communications and other information or materials provided or delivered by, or on behalf of, the Borrowers hereunder (collectively, the “Borrower Materials”) may be disseminated by, or on behalf of, Term Agent, and made available, to the Term Lenders by posting such Borrower Materials on an E-System. The Borrowers authorize Term Agent to download copies of their logos from its website and post copies thereof on an E-System.

(f) Material Non-Public Information. The Borrowers hereby agree that if either they, any parent company or any Subsidiary of the Borrowers has publicly traded equity or debt securities in the U.S., they shall (and shall cause such parent company or Subsidiary, as the case may be, to) (i) identify in writing, and (ii) clearly and conspicuously mark such Borrower Materials that contain only information that is publicly available or that is not material for purposes of U.S. federal and state securities laws as “PUBLIC”. The Borrowers agree that by identifying such Borrower Materials as “PUBLIC” or publicly filing such Borrower Materials with the Securities and Exchange Commission, then Term Agent and the Term Lenders shall be entitled to treat such Borrower Materials as not containing any MNPI for purposes of U.S. federal and state securities laws. The Borrowers further represent, warrant, acknowledge and agree that the following documents and materials shall be deemed to be PUBLIC, whether or not so marked, and do not contain any MNPI: (A) the Loan Documents, including the schedules and exhibits attached thereto, and (B) administrative materials of a customary nature prepared by the Borrowers or Term Agent. Before distribution of any Borrower Materials, the Borrowers agree to execute and deliver to Term Agent a letter authorizing distribution of the evaluation materials to prospective Term Lenders and their employees willing to receive MNPI, and a separate letter authorizing distribution of evaluation materials that do not contain MNPI and represent that no MNPI is contained therein.

8.11 Set-off; Sharing of Payments.

(a) Right of Setoff. Each of Term Agent, each Term Lender and each Affiliate (including each branch office thereof) of any of them is hereby authorized, without notice or demand (each of which is hereby waived by each Borrower), at any time and from time to time during the continuance of any Event of Default and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (whether general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other Indebtedness, claims or other obligations at any time owing by Term Agent, such Term Lender or any of their respective Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower or any other Borrower against any Obligation of any Borrower now or hereafter existing, whether or not any demand was made under any Loan Document with respect to such Obligation and even though such Obligation may be unmatured. No Term Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff without the prior consent of Term Agent or Required Lenders. Each of Term Agent and each Term Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower Representative and Term Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Term Lender or its Affiliates; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights under this Section 8.11 are in addition to any other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that Term Agent, the Term Lenders, their Affiliates and the other Secured Parties, may have.

(b) Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Term Lender, directly or through an Affiliate or branch office thereof, obtains any payment of any Obligation of any Borrower (whether voluntary, involuntary or through the exercise of any right of setoff or the receipt of any Collateral or “proceeds” (as defined under the applicable UCC) of Collateral) other than pursuant to Section 8.9 or Article IX and such payment exceeds the amount such Term Lender would have been entitled to receive if all payments had gone to, and been distributed by, the Term Agent in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents, such Term Lender shall purchase in cash from other Term Lenders such participations in their Obligations as necessary for such Term Lender to share such excess payment with such Term Lenders to ensure such payment is applied as though it had been received by the Term Agent and applied in accordance with this Agreement (or, if such application would then be at the discretion of the Borrowers, applied to repay the Obligations in accordance herewith); provided, however, that (i) if such payment is rescinded or otherwise recovered from such Term Lender in whole or in part, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price therefor shall be returned to such Term Lender without interest and (ii) such Term Lender shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, be able to exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of setoff) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Term Lender were the direct creditor of the applicable Borrower in the amount of such participation.

8.12 Counterparts; Facsimile Signature. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

Each Term Lender hereby notifies the Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Borrower, which information includes the name and address of each Borrower and other information that will allow such Term Lender to identify each Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act.

8.22 Additional Waivers.

(a) The Obligations are the joint and several obligations of each Borrower. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the obligations of each Borrower shall not be affected by (i) the failure of any Secured Party to assert any claim or demand or to enforce or exercise any right or remedy against any other Borrower under the provisions of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or otherwise, (ii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or any release from any of the terms or provisions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or (iii) the failure to perfect any security interest in, or the release of, any of the Collateral or other security held by or on behalf of the Term Agent or any other Secured Party.

(b) The obligations of each Borrower shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Obligations), including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise of any of the Obligations, and shall not be subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any of the Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Borrower hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of the Term Agent or any other Secured Party to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification of any provision of any thereof, any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of any of the Obligations, or by any other act or omission that may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Borrower or that would otherwise operate as a discharge of any Borrower as a matter of law or equity (other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all the Obligations).

(c) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Borrower waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of any other Borrower or the unenforceability of the Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any other Borrower, other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all the Obligations. The Term Agent and the other Secured Parties may, at their election, foreclose on any security held by one or more of them by one or more judicial or non-judicial sales, accept an assignment of any such security in lieu of foreclosure, compromise or adjust any part of the Obligations, make any other accommodation with any other Borrower, or exercise any other right or remedy available to them against any other Borrower, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any Borrower hereunder except to the extent that all the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash. Each Borrower waives any defense arising out of any such election even though such election operates, pursuant to applicable law, to impair or to extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of such Borrower against any other Borrower, as the case may be, or any security.

(d) Upon payment by any Borrower of any Obligations, all rights of such Borrower against any other Borrower arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or otherwise shall in all respects be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior indefeasible payment in full in cash of all the Obligations. In addition, any indebtedness of any Borrower now or hereafter held by any other Borrower is hereby subordinated in right of payment to the prior indefeasible payment in full of the Obligations, and, so long as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no Borrower will demand, sue for or otherwise attempt to collect any such indebtedness. If any amount shall erroneously be paid to any Borrower on account of (i) such subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or similar right or (ii) any such indebtedness of any Borrower, so long as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall forthwith be paid to the Term Agent to be credited against the payment of the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Subject to the foregoing, to the extent that any Borrower shall, under this Agreement as a joint and several obligor, repay any of the Obligations constituting a portion of the Term Loan made to another Borrower hereunder or other Obligations incurred directly and primarily by any other Borrower (an “Accommodation Payment”), then any Borrower making such Accommodation Payment shall be entitled to contribution and indemnification from, and be reimbursed by, each of the other Borrowers in an amount, for each of such other Borrowers, equal to a fraction of such Accommodation Payment, the numerator of which fraction is such other Borrower’s Allocable Amount and the denominator of which is the sum of the Allocable Amounts of all of the Borrowers. As of any date of determination, the “Allocable Amount” of each Borrower shall be equal to the maximum amount of liability for Accommodation Payments which could be asserted against such Borrower hereunder without (a) rendering such Borrower “insolvent” within the meaning of Section 101(32) of the Bankruptcy Code, Section 2 of the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act (“UFTA”) or Section 2 of the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act (“UFCA”), (b) leaving such Borrower with unreasonably small capital or assets, within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code, Section 4 of the UFTA, or Section 5 of the UFCA, or (c) leaving such Borrower unable to pay its debts as they become due within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or Section 4 of the UFTA, or Section 5 of the UFCA.

8.23 Creditor-Debtor Relationship. The relationship between the Term Agent, and each Term Lender, on the one hand, and the Borrowers, on the other hand, is solely that of creditor and debtor. No Secured Party has any fiduciary relationship or duty to any Borrower arising out of or in connection with, and there is no agency, tenancy or joint venture relationship between the Secured Parties and the Borrowers by virtue of, any Loan Document or any transaction contemplated therein.

8.24 Actions in Concert. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, each Term Lender hereby agrees with each other Term Lender that no Term Lender shall take any action to protect or enforce its rights against any Borrower arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including exercising any rights of setoff) without first obtaining the prior written consent of the Term Agent or Required Lenders, it being the intent of the Term Lenders that any such action to protect or enforce rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be taken in concert and at the direction or with the consent of the Term Agent or Required Lenders.

8.25 Agency of the Borrower Representative for Each Other Borrower. Each Borrower irrevocably appoints the Borrower Representative as its agent for all purposes relevant to this Agreement, including the giving and receipt of notices and execution and delivery of all documents, instruments, and certificates contemplated herein and all modifications hereto. Any acknowledgment, consent, direction, certification, or other action which might otherwise be valid or effective only if given or taken by all or any of the Borrowers or acting singly, shall be valid and effective if given or taken only by the Borrower Representative, whether or not any other Borrower joins therein, and the Term Agent and the Term Lenders shall have no duty or obligation to make further inquiry with respect to the authority of the Borrower Representative under this Section 8.25; provided that nothing in this Section 8.25 shall limit the effectiveness of, or the right of the Term Agent and the Term Lenders to rely upon, any notice, document, instrument, certificate, acknowledgment, consent, direction, certification or other action delivered by any Borrower pursuant to this Agreement. The Borrower Representative agrees that the Term Agent, the Term Lenders and their Affiliates may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Borrower Representative, the other Borrowers, their respective Subsidiaries and their Affiliates, and none of the Term Agent, the Term Lenders or their Affiliates has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Borrower Representative, the other Borrowers or any of their respective Subsidiaries.

8.26 Acknowledgment and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable 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 the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution, and (b) the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable: (i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability, (ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or (iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.

8.27 Erroneous Payments.

(a) If the Term Agent (x) notifies a Term Lender, Secured Party, or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Term Lender or Secured Party (any such Term Lender, Secured Party or other recipient (and each of their respective successors and assigns), a “Payment Recipient”) that the Term Agent has determined in its reasonable discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under immediately succeeding clause (b)) that any funds (as set forth in such notice from the Term Agent) received by such Payment Recipient from the Term Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously or mistakenly transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Term Lender, Secured Party or other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such funds, whether transmitted or received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”) and (y) demands in writing the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof) (provided, that, without limiting any other rights or remedies (whether at law or in equity), the Term Agent may not make any such demand under this clause (a) with respect to an Erroneous Payment unless such demand is made within 5 Business Days of the date of receipt of such Erroneous Payment by the applicable Payment Recipient), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Term Agent pending its return or repayment as contemplated below in this Section 8.27 and held in trust for the benefit of the Term Agent, and such Term Lender or Secured Party shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment Recipient to) promptly, but in no event later than two Business Days thereafter (or such later date as the Term Agent may, in its sole discretion, specify in writing), return to the Term Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received). A notice of the Term Agent to any Payment Recipient under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(b) Without limiting immediately preceding clause (a), each Term Lender, Secured Party or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Term Lender or Secured Party (and each of their respective successors and assigns), agrees that if it receives a payment, prepayment or repayment (whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise) from the Term Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in this Agreement or in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Term Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Term Agent (or any of its Affiliates), or (z) that such Term Lender or Secured Party, or other such recipient, otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part), then in each such case:

(i) it acknowledges and agrees that (A) in the case of immediately preceding clauses (x) or (y), an error and mistake shall be presumed to have been made (absent written confirmation from the Term Agent to the contrary) or (B) an error and mistake has been made (in the case of immediately preceding clause (z)), in each case, with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment; and

(ii) such Term Lender or Secured Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any other recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf to) promptly (and, in all events, within one Business Day of its knowledge of the occurrence of any of the circumstances described in immediately preceding clauses (x), (y) and (z)) notify the Term Agent of its receipt of such payment, prepayment or repayment, the details thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying the Term Agent pursuant to this Section 8.27(b).

For the avoidance of doubt, the failure to deliver a notice to the Term Agent pursuant to this Section 8.27(b) shall not have any effect on a Payment Recipient’s obligations pursuant to Section 8.27(a) or on whether or not an Erroneous Payment has been made.

(c) Each Term Lender or Secured Party hereby authorizes the Term Agent to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Term Lender or Secured Party under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Term Agent to such Term Lender or Secured Party under any Loan Document with respect to any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts, against any amount that the Term Agent has demanded to be returned under immediately preceding clause (a).

(d) (i) In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Term Agent for any reason, after demand therefor in accordance with immediately preceding clause (a), from any Term Lender that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) (and/or from any Payment Recipient who received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) on its respective behalf) (such unrecovered amount, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”), upon the Term Agent’s notice to such Term Lender at any time, then effective immediately (with the consideration therefor being acknowledged by the parties hereto), (A) such Term Lender shall be deemed to have assigned its Term Loans with respect to which such Erroneous Payment was made (the “Erroneous Payment Impacted Class”) in an amount equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as the Term Agent may specify) (such assignment of the Term Loans of the Erroneous Payment Impacted Class, the “Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment”) (on a cashless basis and such amount calculated at par plus any accrued and unpaid interest (with the assignment fee to be waived by the Term Agent in such instance)), and is hereby (together with the Borrower Representative) deemed to execute and deliver an Assignment (or, to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment by reference pursuant to a platform such as ClearPar as to which the Term Agent and such parties are participants) with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and such Term Lender shall deliver any Term Notes evidencing such Term Loans to the Borrowers or the Term Agent (but the failure of such Person to deliver any such Term Notes shall not affect the effectiveness of the foregoing assignment), (B) the Term Agent as the assignee Term Lender shall be deemed to have acquired the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, (C) upon such deemed acquisition, the Term Agent as the assignee Term Lender shall become a Term Lender, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and the assigning Term Lender shall cease to be a Term Lender, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, its obligations under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement which shall survive as to such assigning Term Lender, (D) the Term Agent and the Borrowers shall each be deemed to have waived any consents required under this Agreement to any such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and (E) the Term Agent will reflect in the Register its ownership interest in the Term Loans subject to the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment.

(ii) Subject to Section 8.9 (but excluding, in all events, any assignment consent or approval requirements (whether from the Borrowers or otherwise)), the Term Agent may, in its discretion, sell any Term Loans acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and upon receipt of the proceeds of such sale, the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Term Lender shall be reduced by the net proceeds of the sale of such Term Loan (or portion thereof), and the Term Agent shall retain all other rights, remedies and claims against such Term Lender (and/or against any recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf). In addition, an Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Term Lender (x) shall be reduced by the proceeds of prepayments or repayments of principal and interest, or other distribution in respect of principal and interest, received by the Term Agent on or with respect to any such Term Loans acquired from such Term Lender pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment (to the extent that any such Term Loans are then owned by the Term Agent) and (y) may, in the sole discretion of the Term Agent, be reduced by any amount specified by the Term Agent in writing to the applicable Term Lender from time to time.

(e) The parties hereto agree that (x) irrespective of whether the Term Agent may be equitably subrogated, in the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Payment Recipient that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Term Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights and interests of such Payment Recipient (and, in the case of any Payment Recipient who has received funds on behalf of a Term Lender or Secured Party, to the rights and interests of such Term Lender or Secured Party, as the case may be) under the Loan Documents with respect to such amount (the “Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights”) (provided that the Loan Parties’ Obligations under the Loan Documents in respect of the Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights shall not be duplicative of such Obligations in respect of Term Loans that have been assigned to the Term Agent under an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment) and (y) an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Borrowers or any other Loan Party; provided that this Section 8.27 shall not be interpreted to increase (or accelerate the due date for), or have the effect of increasing (or accelerating the due date for), the Obligations of the Borrowers relative to the amount (and/or timing for payment) of the Obligations that would have been payable had such Erroneous Payment not been made by the Term Agent; provided, further, that for the avoidance of doubt, immediately preceding clauses (x) and (y) shall not apply to the extent any such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Term Agent from the Borrowers for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment.

(f) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Term Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payment received, including, without limitation, any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.

(g) Each party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 8.27 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Term Agent, any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Term Lender, the termination of the Commitments and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document.

ARTICLE IX.

TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

(a) Except as otherwise required by any Requirements of Law, any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, duties, deductions, charges or withholdings imposed by any Governmental Authority and all Liabilities, including penalties, interest, and additions to tax, with respect thereto (and without deduction for any of them) (collectively, the “Taxes”).

(b) If any Taxes shall be required by any applicable Requirements of Law to be deducted from or in respect of any amount payable under any Loan Document to any Secured Party (i) if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then such amount shall be increased as necessary to ensure that, after all required deductions for Taxes are made (including deductions applicable to any increases to any amount under this Section 9.1), such Secured Party receives the amount it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the relevant Borrower shall make such deductions, (iii) the relevant Borrower shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxing authority or other authority in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law and (iv) as soon as practicable after such payment is made, the relevant Borrower shall deliver to Term Agent an original or certified copy of a receipt evidencing such payment or other evidence of payment reasonably satisfactory to Term Agent.

(c) In addition, the Borrowers agree to pay, and authorize Term Agent to pay in their name, any and all present or future stamp, court or documentary, intangible, recording, excise or property Tax, charges or similar levies imposed by any applicable Requirements of Law or Governmental Authority and all penalties, interest, and additions to tax with respect thereto (including by reason of any delay by the Borrowers in payment thereof), in each case arising from the execution, delivery, performance, enforcement or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, any Loan Document or any transaction contemplated therein, including the receipt or perfection of a security interest thereunder (collectively, “Other Taxes”). As soon as practicable after the date of any payment of Other Taxes by any Borrower, the Borrower Representative shall furnish to Term Agent, at its address referred to in Section 8.2, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof or other evidence of payment reasonably satisfactory to Term Agent.

A certificate of the Secured Party (or of Term Agent on behalf of such Secured Party) claiming any compensation under this clause (d), setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the amounts to be paid thereunder and delivered to the Borrower Representative, with copy to Term Agent, shall be conclusive, binding and final for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(e) Any Term Lender claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 9.1 shall use its commercially reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policies and Requirements of Law) to change the jurisdiction of its Lending Office if such a change would reduce any such additional amounts (or any similar amount that may thereafter accrue) and would not, in the sole determination of such Term Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Term Lender, including, for the avoidance of doubt, subjecting such Term Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense.

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

(i) Each Non-U.S. Lender Party, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, shall (w) on or prior to the date such Non-U.S. Lender Party becomes a “Non-U.S. Lender Party” hereunder, (x) on or prior to the date on which any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete, (y) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form or certification previously delivered by it pursuant to this clause (i) and (z) from time to time if requested by the Borrower Representative or Term Agent (or, in the case of a participant or SPV, the relevant Term Lender), provide Term Agent and the Borrower Representative (or, in the case of a participant or SPV, the relevant Term Lender) with two completed originals of each of the following, as applicable: (A) Forms W-8ECI (claiming exemption from U.S. withholding Tax because the income is effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business), W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (claiming exemption from, or a reduction of, U.S. withholding Tax under an income Tax treaty) and/or W-8IMY (together with appropriate forms, certifications and supporting statements and documents, including those for the beneficial owners) or any successor forms, (B) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender Party claiming exemption for portfolio interest under Sections 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (claiming exemption from U.S. withholding Tax under the portfolio interest exemption) or any successor form and a certificate in form and substance acceptable to Term Agent and the Borrower Representative (which may be in the form of Exhibit L) that such Non-U.S. Lender Party is not (1) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (2) a “10 percent shareholder” of any Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code or (3) a “controlled foreign corporation” related to any Borrower described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code or (C) any other applicable document prescribed by the IRS certifying as to the entitlement of such Non-U.S. Lender Party to such exemption from United States withholding Tax or reduced rate with respect to payments to be made to such Non-U.S. Lender Party under the Loan Documents; provided, however, that no document shall be required under this clause (C) to the extent the completion, execution, or submission of such document would, in such Non-U.S. Lender Party’s reasonable judgment, subject it to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or materially prejudice its legal or commercial position.

(ii) Each U.S. Lender Party shall (A) on or prior to the date such U.S. Lender Party becomes a “U.S. Lender Party” hereunder, (B) on or prior to the date on which any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete, (C) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form or certification previously delivered by it pursuant to this clause (f) and (D) from time to time if requested by the Borrower Representative or Term Agent (or, in the case of a participant or SPV, the relevant Term Lender), provide Term Agent and the Borrower Representative (or, in the case of a participant or SPV, the relevant Term Lender) with two completed originals of Form W-9 (certifying that such U.S. Lender Party is entitled to an exemption from U.S. backup withholding Tax) or any successor form.

(iii) Each Term Lender having sold a participation in any of its Obligations or identified an SPV as such to Term Agent shall collect from such participant or SPV the documents described in this clause (f) and provide them to Term Agent.

(iv) Nothing in this Section 9.1(f) shall require any U.S. Lender Party or Non-U.S. Lender Party to provide any documentation that it is not legally entitled to deliver.

(v) If a payment made to a Lender Party would be subject to United States federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender Party fails to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA, such Lender Party shall deliver to Term Agent and Borrower Representative any documentation under any Requirements of Law or reasonably requested by the Term Agent or Borrower Representative sufficient for Term Agent or Borrower Representative to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender Party has complied with such applicable reporting requirements or to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment.

(g) Each party’s obligations under this Section 9.1 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Term Agent, any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Term Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document.

9.2 Increased Costs and Reduction of Return.

(iv) compliance by such Term Lender (or its Lending Office) or any entity controlling the Term Lender, with any Capital Adequacy Regulation;

affects the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Term Lender or any entity controlling such Term Lender and (taking into consideration such Term Lender’s or such entities’ policies with respect to capital adequacy and such Term Lender’s desired return on capital) determines that the amount of such capital is increased as a consequence of its loans, credits or obligations under this Agreement, or if any change of any Requirements of Law subjects a Secured Party to any taxes (other than Taxes described in clauses (a)(ii) and (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes or Indemnified Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities, or capital attributable thereto, then, within thirty (30) days of demand of such Term Lender (with a copy to the Term Agent), the Borrowers shall pay to such Term Lender, from time to time as specified by such Term Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Term Lender (or the entity controlling the Term Lender) for such increase or such taxes; provided, that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate any Term Lender for amounts incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Term Lender notifies such Borrower, in writing of the amounts and of such Term Lender’s intention to claim compensation thereof; provided, further, that if the event giving rise to such increase is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (y) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a change in a Requirements of Law under subsection (a) above and/or a change in a Capital Adequacy Regulation under subsection (a) above, as applicable, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued.

9.4 Effect of Benchmark Transition Event Etc.

(a) Term SOFR Lending Unlawful. If any Term Lender shall determine (which determination shall, upon notice thereof to any Borrower and the Term Agent, be conclusive and binding on the Borrower) that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law makes it unlawful, or any Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for such Term Lender to make or continue any Loan as, or to convert any Loan into, a Term SOFR Loan, the obligations of such Term Lender to make, continue or convert any such Term SOFR Loan shall, after the determination thereof, forthwith be suspended until such Term Lender shall notify the Term Agent that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and all outstanding Term SOFR Loans payable to such Term Lender shall automatically convert into Base Rate Loans at the end of the then current Interest Periods with respect thereto or sooner, if required by such law or assertion.

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

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

(f) Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower Representative’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, any Borrower may revoke any request for a Borrowing of Term SOFR Loans, conversion to or continuation of Term SOFR Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower Representative will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of Adjusted Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will, not be used in any determination of the Adjusted Base Rate.
