(b) To facilitate the allocation described in clause (a), at the Effective Time, (i) all “Loans” under the Existing Credit Agreement (“Existing Loans”) shall be deemed to be Revolving Loans, (ii) each Lender that is a party to the Existing Credit Agreement (an “Existing Lender”) shall be deemed to have transferred to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the excess, if any, of such Lender’s pro rata share (according to its Applicable Percentage) of the outstanding Revolving Loans hereunder (including any Revolving Loans made at the Effective Time) over the amount of all of such Lender’s Existing Loans, (iii) each Lender that is not a party to the Existing Credit Agreement shall transfer to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such Xxxxxx’s pro rata share (according to its Applicable Percentage) of the Revolving Loans outstanding hereunder (including any Revolving Loans made at the Effective Time), (iv) the Administrative Agent shall apply the funds received from the Lenders pursuant to clauses (ii) and (iii), first, on behalf of the Lenders (pro rata according to the

amount of the applicable Existing Loans each is required to purchase to achieve the allocation described in clause (a)), to purchase from each Existing Lender that has Existing Loans in excess of such Lender’s pro rata share (according to its Applicable Percentage) of the applicable outstanding Revolving Loans hereunder (including any Revolving Loans made at the Effective Time), a portion of such Existing Loans equal to such excess, second, to pay to each Existing Lender all interest, fees and other amounts (including amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.05 of the Existing Credit Agreement, assuming for such purpose that the Existing Loans were prepaid rather than allocated at the Effective Time) owed to such Existing Lender under the Existing Credit Agreement (whether or not otherwise then due) and, third, as the Parent Borrower shall direct, and (v) all Revolving Loans shall commence new Interest Periods in accordance with elections made by the applicable Borrower at least three Business Days prior to the Closing Date pursuant to the procedures applicable to conversions and continuations set forth in Section 2.02 (all as if the Existing Loans were continued or converted as of the Effective Time), and the Lenders that are lenders under the Existing Credit Agreement hereby waive any and all amounts that would be payable under Section 3.05 of the Existing Credit Agreement as a result of such continuation or conversion. To the extent the applicable Borrower fails to make a timely election pursuant to clause (v) of the preceding sentence with respect to any Revolving Loans, such Revolving Loans shall be Base Rate Loans.

1.11 Existing Letters of Credit. (i) On and after the Closing Date, the Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be Tranche A Letters of Credit or Tranche B Letters of Credit as indicated on Schedule 1.01(a), issued under this Agreement for all purposes, including for purposes of the fees to be collected pursuant to Section 2.03(h) and (ii), and reimbursement of costs and expenses to the extent provided herein.

(ii) Bank of America shall promptly amend each Existing Several Letter of Credit to reflect the applicable Lenders as L/C Issuers and the correct Applicable Percentages of such Lenders under such Existing Several Letter of Credit. The Designated Subsidiary Borrowers shall cooperate with Bank of America and provide any necessary documents as may reasonably be requested by a beneficiary in connection with such amendment. Bank of America and the Designated Subsidiary Borrowers will use their commercially reasonable efforts to amend or replace any Existing Several Letter of Credit which cannot be amended without the consent of a beneficiary, to reflect the correct Applicable Percentages of the Lenders. From the Closing Date until the date on which an Existing Several Letter of Credit has been amended to reflect the applicable Lenders’ Applicable Percentage, each Lender hereby irrevocably and unconditionally purchases from each lender who has issued such Several Letter of Credit, a risk participation in such Existing Several Letter of Credit in an amount such that after giving effect to such purchase, the risk participation of each applicable Lender in such Existing Several Letter of Credit is equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage.

2.02 Borrowings, Conversions and Continuations of Loans.

(a) Each Borrowing, each conversion of Loans from one Type to the other, and each continuation of Term SOFR Loans and/or Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans shall be made upon the Parent Borrower’s, ACUS’s, MI’s or any other applicable Tranche B Designated Subsidiary Borrower’s irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, which may be given by telephone. Each such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (i) three U.S. Government Securities Business Days prior to the requested date of any Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term SOFR Loans denominated in Dollars, (ii) three Business Days prior to the requested date of any Borrowing of or conversion to an Alternative Currency Loan or, in the case of any Alternative Currency Term Rate Loan, any continuation thereof and (iii) on the requested date of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans; provided, however, that if the applicable Borrower wishes to request (x) Term SOFR Loans having an Interest Period other than one or three months in duration as provided in the definition of “Interest Period,” the applicable notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., four U.S. Government Securities Business Days prior to the requested date of such Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term SOFR Loans denominated in Dollars, whereupon the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the affected Lenders of such request and determine whether the requested Interest Period is acceptable to all of them or (y) Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans having an Interest Period other than one, three or six months in duration as provided in the definition of “Interest Period,” the applicable notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. five Business Days prior to the requested date of such Borrowing or continuation of Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans, whereupon the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Lenders of such request and determine whether the requested Interest Period is acceptable to all of them. If a different Interest Period is requested, not later than 11:00 a.m. (x) three U.S. Government Securities Business Days before the requested date of such Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term SOFR Loans denominated in Dollars, the Administrative Agent shall notify the applicable Borrower (which notice may be by telephone) whether or not the requested Interest Period has been consented to by all the affected Lenders or (y) four Business Days prior to the requested date of such Borrowing or continuation of Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans, the Administrative Agent shall notify the applicable Borrower (which notice may be by telephone) whether or not the requested Interest Period has been consented to by all the Lenders. Each telephonic notice by the applicable Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.02(a) must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a written Loan Notice. Each Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of, as applicable, Term SOFR Loans or Alternative Currency Loans shall be in a principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (or, in the case of a Borrowing, a principal amount equal to the remaining available amount of the Tranche B Commitment). Except as provided in Section 2.03(c), each Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans

shall be in a principal amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof. Each Loan Notice (whether telephonic or written) shall specify (i) whether the applicable Borrower is requesting a Borrowing, a conversion of Loans from one Type to the other, or a continuation of Term SOFR Loans or Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans, as applicable, (ii) the requested date of the Borrowing, conversion or continuation, as the case may be (which shall be a Business Day), (iii) the currency and principal amount of Loans to be borrowed, converted or continued, (iv) the Type of Loans to be borrowed or to which existing Loans are to be converted and (v) if applicable, the duration of the Interest Period with respect thereto. If such Borrower fails to specify a currency in a Loan Notice requesting a Borrowing, then the Loans so requested shall be made in Dollars. If the applicable Borrower fails to specify a Type of Loan in a Loan Notice or fails to give a timely notice requesting a conversion or continuation, then the applicable Loans shall be made as, or converted to, Base Rate Loans denominated in Dollars; provided, however, that in the case of a failure to timely request a continuation of Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, such Loans shall be continued as Loans (in their original currency) with an Interest Period of one month. Any automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans shall be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the applicable Term SOFR Loans. If the applicable Borrower requests a Borrowing of, conversion to, or continuation of Term SOFR Loans in any such Loan Notice, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month. No Revolving Loan may be converted into or continued as a Revolving Loan denominated in a different currency, but instead must be prepaid in the original currency of such Revolving Loan and reborrowed in the other currency.

(b) Following receipt of a Loan Notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Tranche B Lender of the amount (and currency) of its Applicable Percentage of the applicable Loans, and if no timely notice of a conversion or continuation is provided by the applicable Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Tranche B Lender or Term Lender, as applicable, of the details of any automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans or continuation of Loans denominated in a currency other than Dollars, in each case as described in the preceding subsection. In the case of a Borrowing, each Tranche B Lender shall make the amount of its Revolving Loan available to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office for the applicable currency not later than 1:00 p.m., in the case of any Loan denominated in Dollars, and not later than the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent in the case of any Loan in an Alternative Currency, in each case on the Business Day specified in the applicable Loan Notice. Upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (and, if such Borrowing is the initial Credit Extension, Section 4.01), the Administrative Agent shall make all funds so received available to the Parent Borrower in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent either by (i) crediting the account of the Parent Borrower on the books of the Administrative Agent with the amount of such funds or (ii) wire transfer of such funds, in each case in accordance with instructions provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) the Administrative Agent by the Parent Borrower; provided, however, that if, on the date the Loan Notice with respect to such Borrowing denominated in Dollars is given by the Parent Borrower, there are L/C Borrowings of the Parent Borrower outstanding, then the proceeds of such Borrowing, first, shall be applied to the payment in full of any such L/C Borrowings, and, second, shall be made available to the Parent Borrower as provided above. Each Tranche B Lender may, at its option, make any Revolving Loan available to the Parent Borrower by causing any foreign or domestic branch or Affiliate of such Tranche B Lender to make such Revolving Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Parent Borrower to repay such Revolving Loan in

accordance with the terms of this Agreement and such branch or Affiliate shall not have any voting rights hereunder which rights shall remain with such Tranche B Lender.

(c) Except as otherwise provided herein, a Term SOFR Loan or an Alternative Currency Term Rate Loan may be continued or converted only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Term SOFR Loan or Alternative Currency Term Rate Loan. During the existence of an Event of Default, no Loans may be requested as, converted to or continued as Term SOFR Loans (if such Loan is denominated in Dollars) or Loans made in an Alternative Currency (if such Loan is denominated in an Alternative Currency) without the consent of the Majority Loan Lenders, and the Majority Tranche B Lenders may demand that any or all of the then outstanding Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency be redenominated into Dollars in the amount of the Dollar Equivalent thereof, on the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto.

(d) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Parent Borrower and the Tranche B Lenders and the Term Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period for Term SOFR Loans or an Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans upon determination of such interest rate. At any time that Base Rate Loans are outstanding, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Parent Borrower and the Tranche B Lenders and the Term Lenders of any change in Bank of America’s prime rate used in determining the Base Rate promptly following the public announcement of such change.

(e) After giving effect to all Borrowings, all conversions of Loans from one Type to the other, and all continuations of Loans as the same Type, there shall not be more than seven Interest Periods in effect with respect to Loans.

(f) The Administrative Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes (in consultation with the Parent Borrower) from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Credit Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action (other than consultation with the Parent Borrower as noted above) or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Credit Document; provided, that, with respect to any such amendment effected, the Administrative Agent shall post each such amendment implementing such Conforming Changes to the Borrower and the Lenders reasonably promptly after such amendment becomes effective.

Unless the Applicable Issuing Party has received written notice from any Lender, the Administrative Agent or the applicable Borrower, at least one Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in Article IV shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Applicable Issuing Party shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the applicable Borrower or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with the Applicable Issuing Party’s usual and customary business practices. Immediately upon the issuance of each Fronted Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the issuing Fronting Bank a risk participation in such Fronted Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage times the amount of such Letter of Credit and immediately upon the issuance of a Several Letter of Credit in which a Fronting Bank has “fronted” for a Participating Bank, each Participating Bank shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, without recourse or warranty, purchase from such Fronting Bank a risk participation in such Several Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage times the amount of such Several Letter of Credit.

(iii) If the applicable Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the Applicable Issuing Party may, in its sole discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit the Applicable Issuing Party to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the Applicable Issuing Party, the applicable Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the Applicable Issuing Party for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the Applicable Issuing Party to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date; provided, however, that the Applicable Issuing Party shall not permit any such extension if (A) the Applicable Issuing Party has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation, at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of clause (ii) or (iii) of Section 2.03(a) or otherwise), or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from the Administrative Agent that the Majority Tranche A Lenders or Majority Tranche B Lenders, as applicable, have elected not to permit such extension or (2) from the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the applicable Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.02 is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing the Applicable Issuing Party not to permit such extension.

(iv) Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the Applicable Issuing Party will also deliver to the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment.

(i) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit (a “Drawing Request”), the Applicable Issuing Party shall notify the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent of the receipt of such Drawing Request and of the date the Applicable Issuing Party will honor such request (each such date, an “Honor Date”). Not later than 10:00 a.m. on the later of (x) such Honor Date in the case of Letters of Credit to be reimbursed in Dollars or the Applicable Time on the Honor Date with respect to Letters of Credit to be reimbursed in an Alternative Currency or (y) one Business Day after the date the notice of such Drawing Request has been given (such date, the “Reimbursement Date”), the applicable Borrower shall reimburse the respective L/C Issuers through the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds the amount of the Drawing Request and, if such payment is made after the Honor Date, plus interest on such amount at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate for Base Rate Loans from the Honor Date to the Reimbursement Date. In the case of a drawing under any Several Letter of Credit, the applicable Borrower shall reimburse the Applicable Issuing Parties through the Administrative Agent in Dollars. In the case of a drawing under any Fronted Letter of Credit, (1) if such Fronted Letter of Credit is denominated in Dollars, the applicable Borrower shall reimburse the applicable Fronting Bank through the Administrative Agent in Dollars and (2) if such Fronted Letter of Credit is denominated in an Alternative Currency, the applicable Borrower shall reimburse the applicable Fronting Bank through the Administrative Agent in such Alternative Currency, unless (A) the applicable Fronting Bank (at its option) shall have specified in such notice that it will require reimbursement in Dollars, or (B) in the absence of any such requirement for reimbursement in Dollars, such Borrower shall have notified the applicable Fronting Bank promptly following receipt of notice of drawing that such Borrower will reimburse the applicable Fronting Bank in Dollars. In the case of any such reimbursement in Dollars of a drawing under a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, the Administrative Agent shall notify the applicable Borrower of the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of the drawing promptly following the determination thereof. In the case of a drawing under a Tranche A Letter of Credit, upon request from the applicable Borrower, the Administrative Agent will consent to the withdrawal for delivery to the Administrative Agent of an aggregate amount of cash in the applicable currency from one or more Collateral Accounts of the applicable Borrower equal to the Reimbursement Obligation created as a result of such drawing (it being understood that such Borrower shall have the right to sell assets in its Collateral Account with the proceeds of such sale being deposited in its Collateral Account in order to make such payment and to the extent necessary the Administrative Agent will consent to the withdrawal of cash for conversion to the applicable currency in which such Reimbursement Obligation is due); provided, that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to so consent to such withdrawal of funds from any Collateral Account of a Borrower to the extent that after giving effect to such withdrawal, the aggregate undrawn face amount of Tranche A Letters of Credit issued for the account of such Borrower would exceed the Borrowing Base of such Borrower. Any amount withdrawn from a Collateral Account pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be promptly delivered by the applicable Borrower to the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Applicable Issuing Party as set forth above. To the extent that Same Day Funds are received by the Administrative Agent from the applicable Borrower prior to 11:00 a.m. on any Business Day (or the Applicable Time in the case of any Letter of Credit to be reimbursed in an

Alternative Currency), the Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Applicable Issuing Party on such Business Day; if not received by such time, the Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Applicable Issuing Party on the next Business Day. Any notice given by the Applicable Issuing Party or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)(i) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

(ii) With respect to any Drawing Request, if Same Day Funds are not received by the Administrative Agent from the applicable Borrower prior to 11:00 a.m. (or the Applicable Time in the case of any Letter of Credit to be reimbursed in an Alternative Currency) on the Honor Date in the amount of such Drawing Request, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each applicable Lender of such Drawing Request, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (the “Unreimbursed Amount”) and such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Unreimbursed Amount. If such Unreimbursed Amount relates to a Letter of Credit issued in an Alternative Currency, such Unreimbursed Amount shall be the Dollar Equivalent (as calculated by the issuing Fronting Bank using the Spot Rate) of the Drawing Request. Each Lender shall make funds available in Dollars to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Applicable Issuing Party at the Administrative Agent’s Office in an amount equal to its Applicable Percentage of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent (the “L/C Advance Date”). The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Applicable Issuing Party. To the extent that Same Day Funds are received by the Administrative Agent from the Lenders (or the applicable Fronting Bank on behalf of a Participating Bank) with respect to a Several Letter of Credit prior to 2:00 p.m. on the L/C Advance Date, the Administrative Agent shall notify the applicable L/C Administrator and the applicable L/C Administrator shall promptly make such funds available to the beneficiary of such Several Letter of Credit on such date. To the extent that the applicable L/C Administrator has not delivered funds to any beneficiary of a Several Letter of Credit on behalf of a Lender on the L/C Advance Date, if Same Day Funds are received by the Administrative Agent from such Lender: (i) after 2:00 p.m. on the L/C Advance Date, the L/C Administrator shall make such funds available to such beneficiary on the next Business Day; (ii) prior to 2:00 p.m. on any Business Day after the L/C Advance Date, the L/C Administrator shall make those funds available to such beneficiary on such Business Day; and (iii) after 2:00 p.m. on any Business Day after the L/C Advance Date, the applicable L/C Administrator shall make those funds available to such beneficiary on the next Business Day following such Business Day.

(iii) Unless the Administrative Agent or the applicable L/C Administrator receives notice from a Lender prior to any L/C Advance Date with respect to a Several Letter of Credit that such Lender will not make available as and when required hereunder to the Administrative Agent the amount of such Xxxxxx’s L/C Advance on such L/C Advance Date, the Administrative Agent and the applicable L/C Administrator may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds on the L/C Advance Date and the applicable L/C Administrator may (but shall not be required), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the beneficiary of the related Several Letter of Credit on such date such Lender’s L/C Advance.

(iv) With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount, the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred an L/C Advance in the Dollar Equivalent of the Unreimbursed Amount on the Honor Date from (x) in the case of Fronted Letters of Credit, the issuing Fronting Bank and (y) in the case of Several Letters of Credit, from the Lenders to the extent that they have provided funds with respect to such Several Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(ii), from the applicable Fronting Bank to the extent it has made funds available on behalf of a Participating Bank or from the applicable L/C Administrator to the extent it has made funds available on behalf of a Lender pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(iii). L/C Advances shall be due and payable on the Reimbursement Date and thereafter on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate for Base Rate Loans from the Honor Date to the Reimbursement Date and thereafter at the Default Rate. Each Lender’s or Participating Bank’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of a Fronting Bank pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Advance and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.03. Any payment by a Borrower in respect of such L/C Advance shall be made to the Administrative Agent and upon receipt distributed by the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.03(d).

(v) Until each Lender funds its L/C Advance pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) to reimburse a Fronting Bank (or the L/C Administrator pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(iii)) for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the related L/C Borrowing shall be solely for the account of the relevant Fronting Bank or the relevant L/C Administrator, as applicable.

(vi) Each Lender’s obligation to make L/C Advances to reimburse the relevant issuing Fronting Bank (or the applicable L/C Administrator pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(iii)) for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section 2.03(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the Administrative Agent, any Fronting Bank, any L/C Administrator, any Lender, any Borrower, any beneficiary named in any Letter of Credit, any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Persons for whom any such transferee may be acting) or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, (C) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement or any other Credit Document, (D) any draft, certificate or any other document presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (E) the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms of the Credit Documents, (F) any matter or event set forth in Section 2.03(b)(i), or (G) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. No such making of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the applicable Borrower to reimburse the respective L/C Issuers for the amount of any payment made by the respective L/C Issuers under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein.

(vii) If any Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of a Fronting Bank or an L/C Administrator any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(c) by the time specified in Section 2.03(c)(ii), such Fronting Bank or such L/C Administrator, as the case may be, shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately

available to such Fronting Bank or such L/C Administrator, as the case may be, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by such Fronting Bank or such L/C Administrator in connection with the foregoing. A certificate of such Fronting Bank or such L/C Administrator, as the case may be, submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (vii) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Repayment of Participations.

(i) At any time after the Applicable Issuing Party has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any Lender such Lender’s L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with Section 2.03(c), if the Administrative Agent receives any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from a Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will distribute to such Lender its Applicable Percentage thereof in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent.

(ii) If any payment received by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) is required to be returned under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.05 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the applicable Fronting Bank or other L/C Issuer in its discretion), each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Fronting Bank or L/C Administrator its Applicable Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

(e) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of a Borrower to reimburse the respective L/C Issuers for each drawing under each Letter of Credit as to each Letter of Credit issued for its account and to repay each related L/C Borrowing shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other Credit Document;

(ii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, defense or other right that the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the Applicable Issuing Party or any L/C Issuer or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction;

(iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit;

(iv) any adverse change in the relevant exchange rates or in the availability of the relevant Alternative Currency to any Borrower or in the relevant currency markets generally;

(v) any payment by the Applicable Issuing Party or L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by any Applicable Issuing Party or L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law; or

(vi) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary.

The applicable Borrower shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with the applicable Borrower’s instructions or other irregularity, the applicable Borrower will immediately notify the Applicable Issuing Party. The applicable Borrower shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the Applicable Issuing Party and its correspondents and the L/C Issuers unless such notice is given as aforesaid.

(f) Role of Applicable Issuing Party. Each Lender and each Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the Applicable Issuing Party shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by such Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the Applicable Issuing Parties, the L/C Issuers, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of an Applicable Issuing Party or L/C Issuer shall be liable to any Lender for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Issuer Document. Each Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude such Borrower pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. None of the Applicable Issuing Parties, the L/C Issuers, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of an Applicable Issuing Party or L/C Issuer shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (vi) of Section 2.03(e); provided, however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the applicable Borrower may have a claim against the Applicable Issuing Party and/or the L/C Issuers, and the Applicable Issuing Party and/or the L/C Issuers may be liable to the applicable Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the applicable Borrower which the applicable Borrower proves were caused by the Applicable Issuing Party’s and/or a L/C Issuer’s willful misconduct or gross negligence or the Applicable Issuing Party’s and/or a L/C Issuer’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Applicable Issuing Party may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further

investigation, and neither the Applicable Issuing Party nor any L/C Issuer shall be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason. Any L/C Issuer may send a Letter of Credit or conduct any communication to or from the beneficiary via the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (“SWIFT”) message or overnight courier, or any other commercially reasonable means of communicating with a beneficiary.

(g) Applicability of ISP and UCP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the Applicable Issuing Party and the applicable Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued (including any such agreement applicable to an Existing Letter of Credit), the rules of the ISP shall apply unless, for regulatory purposes, the rules of the UCP must apply. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no L/C Issuer shall be responsible to any Borrower for, and no L/C Issuer’s rights and remedies against any Borrower shall be impaired by, any action or inaction of any such L/C Issuer required or permitted under any law, order, or practice that is required or permitted to be applied to any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, including the Law or any order of a jurisdiction where such L/C Issuer or the beneficiary is located, the practice stated in the ISP or UCP, as applicable, or in the decisions, opinions, practice statements, or official commentary of the ICC Banking Commission, the Bankers Association for Finance and Trade - International Financial Services Association (“BAFT-IFSA”), or the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice, whether or not any Letter of Credit chooses such law or practice.

(h) Letter of Credit Fees; Limitation of Liability. The applicable Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Applicable Percentage in Dollars, a Letter of Credit fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) for each Letter of Credit equal to the Applicable Rate times the Dollar Equivalent of the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit; provided, however, any Letter of Credit Fees otherwise payable for the account of a Defaulting Lender with respect to any Letter of Credit as to which such Defaulting Lender has not provided Cash Collateral satisfactory to each Fronting Bank pursuant to this Section 2.03 shall be payable, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, to the other Lenders in accordance with the upward adjustments in their respective Applicable Percentages allocable to such Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.16(a)(iv), with the balance of such fee, if any, payable to the issuing Fronting Bank for its own account. For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.09. Letter of Credit Fees shall be (i) due and payable on the tenth Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand and (ii) computed on a quarterly basis in arrears. If there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the daily amount available to be drawn under each Letter of Credit shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon the request of the Required Lenders, (i) while any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under Section 8.01(e), all Letter of Credit Fees shall accrue at the Default Rate and (ii) if any Letter of Credit Fee is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), such amount shall accrue at the Default Rate.

(i) Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to Fronting Banks.

(i) Each Borrower shall pay directly to each Fronting Bank for its own account in Dollars a fronting fee with respect to each Fronted Letter of Credit issued for the account of such Borrower by such Fronting Bank, at the rate per annum agreed to between the Parent Borrower and such Fronting Bank, computed on the Dollar

Equivalent of the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit which fronting fee shall be (i) due and payable on the tenth Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand and (ii) computed on a quarterly basis in arrears, it being understood that each Fronting Bank will invoice each Borrower directly for amounts due under this Section 2.03(i). For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.09. In addition, each Borrower shall pay directly to the Applicable Issuing Party for its own account, in Dollars, the customary issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of the issuing Fronting Bank relating to letters of credit as from time to time in effect. Such fees are due and payable on demand and are nonrefundable.

(ii) Each Participating Bank with respect to a Several Letter of Credit shall pay to the applicable Fronting Bank a fronting fee (the “Several L/C Fronting Fee”) computed on the risk participation purchased by such Participating Bank from such Fronting Bank with respect to such Several Letter of Credit at the rate per annum specified in the fee letter between such Participating Bank and such Fronting Bank. Unless otherwise agreed between such Participating Bank, such Fronting Bank and the Administrative Agent, the Several L/C Fronting Fee shall be paid quarterly in arrears and each Fronting Bank will invoice the Participating Banks for any Several L/C Fronting Fees owed to it.

(j) Conflict with Issuer Documents. In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any Issuer Document, the terms hereof shall control.

2.04 Prepayments; Cash Collateralization.

(a) The Parent Borrower, ACUS, MI or any other Tranche B Designated Subsidiary Borrower, as applicable, may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (i) such notice must be in a form acceptable to the Administrative Agent and be received not later than 11:00 a.m. (A) three U.S. Government Securities Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of Term SOFR Loans denominated in Dollars, (B) four Business Days (or five, in the case of prepayment of Loans denominated in Special Notice Currencies) prior to any date of prepayment of Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies, and (C) on the date of prepayment of Base Rate Loans; (ii) any prepayment of Term SOFR Loans denominated in Dollars shall be in a principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; (iii) any prepayment of Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies shall be in a minimum principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; and (iv) any prepayment of Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof or, in each case, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding; provided, further, that a notice of prepayment may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of any other credit facility or the closing of any securities offering, in which case such notice may be revoked (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the Type(s) of Loans to be prepaid and, if Term SOFR Loans or Alternative Currency Term Rate Loans are to be prepaid, the Interest Period(s) of such Loans. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Tranche B Lender or Term Lender, as applicable of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Tranche B Lender’s or Term Lender’s, as applicable, Applicable Percentage of such prepayment. The Parent Borrower, ACUS, MI or any other Tranche B Designated Subsidiary Borrower, as applicable, shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall

be due and payable on the date specified therein. Any prepayment of a Term SOFR Loan or an Alternative Currency Term Rate Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued interest on the amount prepaid, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.05. Each such prepayment of Revolving Loans shall be applied to the Revolving Loans of the Tranche B Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages. Each such prepayment of Term Loans shall be applied to the Term Loans of the Term Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages.

(b) If at any time the Outstanding Amount of Tranche B Obligations exceeds the aggregate Tranche B Commitments then in effect, promptly after the Administrative Agent’s giving the Parent Borrower notice of such excess, the Parent Borrower, MI and/or ACUS, as applicable, shall (or shall cause one or more Tranche B Designated Subsidiary Borrowers to), (x) prepay Loans and/or (y) Cash Collateralize the Tranche X X/C Obligations in an aggregate amount such that the Outstanding Amount of Tranche B Obligations does not exceed the aggregate Tranche B Commitments then in effect.

(c) If the Tranche B Obligations are accelerated pursuant to Section 8.02, and until the final expiration date of all Tranche B Letters of Credit and thereafter so long as any Tranche X X/C Obligations are payable hereunder, the applicable Borrower shall immediately cash collateralize its Tranche B Letters of Credit with Cash and Cash Equivalents in an amount equal to 102% of the outstanding Tranche X X/C Obligations and shall deposit such Cash and Cash Equivalents in a special collateral account pursuant to arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s office in the name of the Parent Borrower, ACUS, ARC, ARL, MI or any other Tranche B Designated Subsidiary Borrower, as applicable, but under the sole dominion and control of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Fronting Banks with respect to the Tranche B Letters of Credit and the Tranche B Lenders.

(d) Upon the request of any Tranche B Borrower made within two Business Days following any Revaluation Date, the Administrative Agent will, so long as no Default then exists, release Cash Collateral of such Tranche B Borrower to such Tranche B Borrower to the extent that such Cash Collateral is no longer required pursuant to Section 2.04(b) or (c), as applicable.

(e) The Administrative Agent or the Applicable Issuing Party may, at any time and from time to time after the initial deposit of Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.04(b) or (c), request additional Cash Collateral to the extent the amount of Cash Collateral provided pursuant thereto is less than the amount required pursuant to such Sections due to the exchange rate fluctuations.

(f) If at any time a Tranche A Designated Subsidiary Borrower’s Borrowing Base is less than the Tranche A L/C Obligations attributable to such Tranche A Designated Subsidiary Borrower at such time, such Tranche A Designated Subsidiary Borrower shall as promptly as possible (and in any event within three Business Days) deposit into its Collateral Account Cash and Eligible Securities or reduce its Tranche A L/C Obligations, or a combination of the foregoing, in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess.

(g) So long as no Default then exists, if a Tranche A Designated Subsidiary Borrower’s Borrowing Base is greater than the Tranche A L/C Obligations attributable to such Tranche A Designated Subsidiary Borrower, upon the request of such Tranche A Designated Subsidiary Borrower made within two Business Days following any Revaluation Date, the Administrative Agent shall consent to the withdrawal of Cash and Eligible Securities from the Collateral Account of such Tranche A Designated Subsidiary Borrower in an aggregate amount equal to such excess for delivery to such Tranche A Designated Subsidiary Borrower.

(h) If at any time the Tranche A Commitments are less than the Tranche A L/C Obligations attributable to one or more Tranche A Designated Subsidiary Borrowers at such time, such Tranche A Designated Subsidiary Borrowers shall as promptly as possible (and in any event within three Business Days) deposit into its Collateral Account Cash and Eligible Securities or reduce its Tranche A L/C Obligations, or a combination of the foregoing, in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess.

2.05 Termination or Reduction of Commitments.

(a) The Parent Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, terminate, or from time to time permanently reduce, the Tranche A Commitments or the Tranche B Commitments; provided that (i) any such notice shall be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. five Business Days prior to the date of termination or reduction, (ii) any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of $10,000,000 or any whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, (iii) the Parent Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Tranche A Commitments if, after giving effect thereto the Tranche A L/C Obligations would exceed the amount of the aggregate Tranche A Commitments then in effect, and (iv) the Parent Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Tranche B Commitments if, after giving effect thereto, the Tranche B Obligations would exceed the aggregate Tranche B Commitments then in effect; provided, further, that a notice of termination or reduction may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of any other credit facility or the closing of any securities offering, in which case such notice may be revoked (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of any such notice of termination or reduction of the Commitments. Any reduction of the Commitments shall be applied to the Commitment of each Lender according to its Applicable Percentage. All fees accrued until the effective date of any termination of the Commitments shall be paid on the effective date of such termination.

(b) The Tranche B Commitments will be automatically reduced on the Term Loan Conversion Date by an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans on such date.

2.06 Repayment of Loans. The Parent Borrower, ACUS, MI and each Tranche B Designated Subsidiary Borrower, as applicable, shall repay to the Lenders on the Maturity Date the aggregate principal amount of all Loans outstanding on such date.

2.07 Interest.

(a) Subject to the provisions of subsection (b) below, (i) each Term SOFR Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to Term SOFR for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate; (ii) each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate; (iii) each Alternative Currency Daily Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Alternative Currency Daily Rate plus the Applicable Rate; and (iv) each Alternative Currency Term Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to the Alternative Currency Term Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate.

(b) If any amount of principal of any Loan is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

(i) If any amount (other than principal of any Loan) payable by a Loan Party under any Credit Document is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, then upon the request of the Required Lenders, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

(ii) Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand.

(c) Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified herein. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law.

2.08 Fees. In addition to certain fees described in subsections (h) and (i) of Section 2.03:

(a) Commitment Fee. The Parent Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Applicable Percentage, a commitment fee equal to (i) in the case of the Tranche A Commitments, the Applicable Rate times the actual daily amount by which the combined Tranche A Commitments exceed the Tranche A L/C Obligations and (ii) in the case of the Tranche B Commitments, the Applicable Rate times the actual daily amount by which the combined Tranche B Commitments exceed the Tranche B Obligations. The commitment fee shall accrue at all times during the Availability Period (excluding the last day thereof), including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Article IV is not met, and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the tenth Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the last day of the Availability Period. The commitment fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect. All commitment fees in respect of the portion of the Tranche B Commitment reduced pursuant to Section 2.05(b) and accrued until the Term Loan Conversion Date shall be paid on the Term Loan Conversion Date.

(b) Other Fees. The Borrowers shall pay to the Arranger and the Administrative Agent for their own respective accounts fees in the amounts and at the times specified in the Fee Letter. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever.

2.09 Computation of Interest and Fees. All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans (including Base Rate Loans determined by reference to Term SOFR) shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year), or, in the case of interest in respect of Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies as to which market practice differs from the foregoing, in accordance with such market practice. Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid; provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.11(a), bear interest for one day. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of

an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

2.10 Evidence of Debt.

(a) The Credit Extensions made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Xxxxxx and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Credit Extensions made by the Lenders to the Borrowers and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrowers hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Xxxxxx and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Xxxxxx made through the Administrative Agent, the Parent Borrower, ACUS, MI and each other applicable Tranche B Designated Subsidiary Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a Note, which shall evidence such Xxxxxx’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note(s) and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.

(b) In addition to the accounts and records referred to in subsection (a), each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records evidencing the purchases and sales by such Lender of participations in Letters of Credit. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any Lender in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.

2.11 Payments Generally; Administrative Agent’s Clawback.

(a) General. All payments to be made by the Borrowers shall be made free and clear of and without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein and except with respect to principal of and interest on Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, all payments by the Borrowers hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the applicable Administrative Agent’s Office in Dollars and in Same Day Funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified herein. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrowers hereunder (i) in the case of principal and interest on Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, (ii) in the case of Fronted Letters of Credit, to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the issuing Fronting Bank, at the applicable Administrative Agent’s Office in Dollars or the applicable Alternative Currency and in Same Day Funds not later than the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent on the dates specified herein and (iii) in the case of Several Letters of Credit, to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders who have issued such Letter of Credit in each case at the applicable Administrative Agent’s Office in Same Day Funds not later than the time specified by the Administrative Agent on the dates specified herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may require that any payments due under this Agreement be made in the United States. If, for any reason, any Borrower is prohibited by any Law from making any required payment hereunder in an

Alternative Currency, such Borrower shall make such payment in Dollars equal to the Dollar Equivalent of the Alternative Currency payment amount. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Applicable Percentage (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent (i) after 2:00 p.m., in the case of payments in Dollars, or (ii) after the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent in the case of payments in an Alternative Currency, shall in each case be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by any Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.

(b) Funding by Xxxxxxx; Presumption by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing of Term SOFR Loans or Alternative Currency Loans (or, in the case of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, prior to 12:00 noon on the date of such Borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Xxxxxx’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.02 (or, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, that such Lender has made such share available in accordance with and at the time required by Section 2.02) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the applicable Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in Same Day Funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to such Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the Overnight Rate, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing, and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by such Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. If such Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to such Borrower the amount of such interest paid by such Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by such Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim such Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

(i) Payments by Borrowers; Presumptions by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Fronting Banks hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or such Fronting Bank, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if such Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or such Fronting Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or such Fronting Bank, in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the Overnight Rate.

A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or any Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(c) Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent. If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Xxxxxx as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to the applicable Borrower by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Credit Extension set forth in Article IV are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.

(d) Obligations of Lenders Several. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans, to fund Several Letters of Credit, to purchase participations in Letters of Credit and to make payments pursuant to Section 10.04(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan, to fund any Several Letter of Credit, to purchase a participation in any Letter of Credit or to make any payment under Section 10.04(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan, to fund a Several Letter of Credit, to purchase its participation in a Letter of Credit or make its payment under Section 10.04(c).

(e) Funding Source. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.

2.12 Sharing of Payments by Xxxxxxx. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of the Loans made by it, or in L/C Obligations held by it, resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of such Loans or L/C Obligations and accrued interest thereon greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and participations or subparticipations in L/C Obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Total Outstandings and other amounts owing them, provided that:

(i) if any such participations or subparticipations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations or subparticipations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and

(ii) the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by or on behalf of a Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), (y) the application of Cash Collateral provided for in Section 2.15, or (z) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or subparticipations in L/C Obligations to any assignee or participant, other than an assignment to the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply).

Each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect

to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation.

2.13 Designated Subsidiary Borrowers.

(a) The Parent Borrower may at any time, upon not less than 10 Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter notice as the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, permit), request to designate any additional Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower (an “Applicant Borrower”) as a Tranche A Designated Subsidiary Borrower by delivering to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly deliver counterparts thereof to each Tranche A Lender) a duly executed notice and agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit H (a “Designated Subsidiary Borrower Request and Assumption Agreement”). The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that prior to any Applicant Borrower becoming entitled to utilize the Tranche A Commitments, such Applicant Borrower shall have executed a joinder to the Security Agreement and a Control Agreement (or joinder thereto) and the Administrative Agent and the Tranche A Lenders shall have received such supporting resolutions, incumbency certificates, opinions of counsel and other documents or information, in form, content and scope reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, as may be required by the Administrative Agent or the Majority Tranche A Lenders in their sole discretion, including all documents and information required by regulatory authorities under applicable “know-your-customer” rules and regulations with respect to the Applicant Borrower. If the Administrative Agent and the Tranche A Lenders agree that an Applicant Borrower shall be a Tranche A Designated Subsidiary Borrower under the Tranche A Commitments, then promptly following receipt of all such Security Documents and requested resolutions, incumbency certificates, opinions of counsel and other documents or information, the Administrative Agent shall send a notice in substantially the form of Exhibit I (a “Designated Subsidiary Borrower Notice”) to the Parent Borrower and the Tranche A Lenders specifying the effective date upon which such Applicant Borrower shall constitute a Tranche A Designated Subsidiary Borrower under the Tranche A Commitments, whereupon each of the Tranche A Lenders agrees to permit such Tranche A Designated Subsidiary Borrower to obtain Tranche A Letters of Credit hereunder, on the terms and conditions set forth herein, and each of the parties agrees that such Tranche A Designated Subsidiary Borrower otherwise shall be a Borrower for all purposes of this Agreement; provided any such effective date shall not be sooner than five Business Days after the Administrative Agent and the Tranche A Lenders have received all such Security Documents and requested resolutions, incumbency certificates, opinions of counsel and other documents or information.

(b) The Parent Borrower may at any time, upon not less than 10 Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter notice as the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, permit), designate any Applicant Borrower as a Tranche B Designated Subsidiary Borrower by delivering to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly deliver counterparts thereof to each Tranche B Lender) a duly executed Designated Subsidiary Borrower Request and Assumption Agreement with appropriate changes to reflect whether such Applicant Borrower may obtain Revolving Loans and/or Tranche B Letters of Credit. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that prior to any Applicant Borrower becoming entitled to utilize the Tranche B Commitments, the Parent Guaranty shall be amended to provide that the Parent Borrower shall guarantee all Obligations of such Tranche B Designated Subsidiary Borrower and the Applicant Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Tranche B Lenders (i) such supporting resolutions, incumbency certificates, opinions of counsel and other documents or information, in form, content and scope reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, as may be required by the Administrative Agent and (ii) all documents and information required by regulatory authorities under applicable “know-your-customer” rules and regulations, in each case, with respect to the Applicant Borrower. Promptly following receipt of the Parent Guaranty amendment and all requested resolutions, incumbency certificates, opinions of counsel and other documents or information, the Administrative Agent shall send a

Designated Subsidiary Borrower Notice to the Parent Borrower and the Tranche B Lenders specifying the effective date upon which such Applicant Borrower shall constitute a Tranche B Designated Subsidiary Borrower, whereupon each of the Tranche B Lenders agrees to permit such Tranche B Designated Subsidiary Borrower to obtain Tranche B Letters of Credit and/or Revolving Loans hereunder, as the case may be, on the terms and conditions set forth herein, and each of the parties agrees that such Tranche B Designated Subsidiary Borrower otherwise shall be a Borrower for all purposes of this Agreement; provided that no request for a Credit Extension may be submitted by or on behalf of such Tranche B Designated Subsidiary Borrower until the date five Business Days after such effective date (or such shorter period as may be acceptable to the Tranche B Lenders).

(c) In addition to the conditions set forth in clause (b), an Applicant Borrower that would qualify as a Tranche B Designated Subsidiary Borrower shall not be a Tranche B Designated Subsidiary Borrower hereunder if the Administrative Agent gives written notice to the Applicant Borrower and the Tranche B Lenders, prior to the effective date of such Applicant Borrower becoming a Tranche B Designated Subsidiary Borrower, that it has reasonably determined that the addition of such Applicant Borrower would (i) violate any applicable Law or (ii) have any material adverse effect on the Tranche B Lenders.

(d) Except as expressly set forth in Sections 10.04(a) and 10.04(b), the Obligations of the Parent Borrower (except as otherwise provided herein or in any other Credit Document) and the Obligations of each Designated Subsidiary Borrower shall be several in nature and no Designated Subsidiary Borrower will be liable for the Obligations of another Borrower.

(e) Each Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower that is or becomes a “Designated Subsidiary Borrower” pursuant to this Section 2.13 hereby irrevocably appoints the Parent Borrower as its agent for all purposes relevant to this Agreement and each of the other Credit Documents, including (i) the giving and receipt of notices and (ii) the 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 Borrowers, or by each Borrower acting singly, shall be valid and effective if given or taken only by the Parent Borrower, whether or not any such other Borrower joins therein. Any notice, demand, consent, acknowledgement, direction, certification or other communication delivered to the Parent Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been delivered to each Designated Subsidiary Borrower.

(f) The Parent Borrower may from time to time, upon not less than 5 Business Days’ notice from the Parent Borrower to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), terminate a Designated Subsidiary Borrower’s status as such, provided that there are no outstanding Letters of Credit issued for the account of such Designated Subsidiary Borrower or other amounts payable by such Designated Subsidiary Borrower on account of any Letters of Credit issued for its account or Loans outstanding to such Designated Subsidiary Borrower, as of the effective date of such termination. Upon termination of a Designated Subsidiary Borrower’s status as such, the Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of such termination and will release (i) such Designated Subsidiary Borrower from its obligations under this Agreement and any other Credit Document, (ii) all Collateral provided by such Designated Subsidiary Borrower and (iii) if applicable, the Parent Borrower from the Parent Guaranty solely with respect to the obligations of such Designated Subsidiary Borrower; provided that termination of ACUS as a Designated Subsidiary Borrower shall not release ACUS from its obligations under the ACUS Guaranty.

2.14 Increase in Commitments.

(a) Request for Increases to Commitments. The Parent Borrower shall have the right at any time prior to the date that is 30 days prior to the Maturity Date to increase the Commitments hereunder to an amount not exceeding $1,500,000,000 in the aggregate; provided that the Parent Borrower shall not request more than five (5) such increases in the aggregate during the term of this Agreement. Any such increase may be effected (x) by including as a Lender hereunder with a new Commitment any Person that would be an Eligible Assignee and/or (y) by having one or more existing Lenders increase their Commitments then in effect (with the consent of each such Lender in its sole discretion) (each such new or increasing Lender, a “Supplemental Lender”); provided that (A) each Supplemental Lender shall be subject to the approvals of the Administrative Agent and the Fronting Banks (which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) if such approvals would be required under Section 10.06(b)(iii) for an assignment to such Supplemental Lender, (B) such Commitment of any Supplemental Lender that is not an existing Lender shall be in an amount of at least $25,000,000, (C) the aggregate amount of the increase of the Commitments effected on any day shall be at least $25,000,000, and (D) if such Supplemental Lender will be a Participating Bank, a Fronting Bank shall have agreed to front for such Supplemental Lender under Several Letters of Credit on terms satisfactory to such Fronting Bank.

(b) Required Supplemental Lender Documentation. Each such Supplemental Lender shall enter into an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent and its counsel pursuant to which such Supplemental Lender shall, as of the effective date of such increase in the Commitments (which shall be a Business Day and, unless the Administrative Agent otherwise agrees, on which no issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit is scheduled to occur or no Borrowing is scheduled to be made, each a “Supplemental Commitment Date”), undertake a Commitment (or, if any such Supplemental Lender is an existing Lender, its Commitment shall be in addition to such Lender’s Commitment hereunder on such date) and such Supplemental Lender shall thereupon become (or continue to be) a “Lender” for all purposes hereof.

(c) Conditions to Effectiveness of Increase. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no increase in the aggregate Commitments hereunder pursuant to this Section shall be effective unless:

(i) the Parent Borrower shall have given the Administrative Agent notice of any such increase at least 10 Business Days prior to the applicable Supplemental Commitment Date (or such shorter period acceptable to the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion);

(ii) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the applicable Supplemental Commitment Date; and

(iii) the Parent Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent a certificate of each Borrower under the Commitment being increased dated as of the Supplemental Commitment Date signed by a Responsible Officer of such Borrower (x) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Borrower approving or consenting to such increase, and (y) certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase, (A) each of the representations and warranties of the Borrowers contained in this Agreement and the other Credit Documents shall be true in all material respects on and as of the applicable Supplemental Commitment Date with the same force and effect as if made on and as of such date (or, if any such representation or warranty is expressly stated to have been made as of a specific date, as of such specific date); and (B) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

(d) Revised Percentages and Letter of Credit Amendments. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of the new Applicable Percentages after giving effect to the increase in the Commitments on the Supplemental Commitment Date. Promptly after the Supplemental Commitment Date, the L/C Administrators shall amend the outstanding Several Letters of Credit under the Commitment being increased to reflect the new “Commitment share” of each Lender (including the Supplemental Lenders) and prior to the date a Several Letter of Credit has been amended to give effect to such new “Commitment share,” each Supplemental Lender shall be deemed to irrevocably and unconditionally purchase from each Lender who has issued such Several Letter of Credit, a risk participation in such Several Letter of Credit in an amount such that after giving effect to such purchase, each Lender (including the Supplemental Lender) has its Applicable Percentage of such Several Letter of Credit. In the event of an increase in the Tranche B Commitments, on the Supplemental Commitment Date, the Administrative Agent will reallocate the Revolving Loans among the Tranche B Lenders to reflect the new Applicable Percentages of the Tranche B Lenders, each Supplemental Lender shall pay the Administrative Agent its Applicable Percentage of the outstanding Revolving Loans and the Administrative Agent shall distribute such amount to the non-increasing Lenders so that after such distribution, all Tranche B Lenders’ share of the Tranche B Obligations are pro rata based on their Applicable Percentage of the Tranche B Commitments and the Parent Borrower shall pay compensation, if any, to the Tranche B Lenders under Section 3.05 resulting from such reallocation as if such reallocation were a prepayment.

(e) Conflicting Provisions. This Section shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.12 or 10.01 to the contrary.

2.15 Cash Collateral.

(a) Certain Credit Support Events. At any time that a Tranche B Lender is a Defaulting Lender, within two Business Days following written notice of the Administrative Agent or a Fronting Bank, the applicable Tranche B Designated Subsidiary Borrowers shall deliver to the Administrative Agent Cash Collateral or Cash Equivalents in an amount sufficient to cover 100% of all Fronting Exposure of such Fronting Bank with respect to Tranche B Letters of Credit of such Defaulting Lender issued for the account of such Tranche B Designated Subsidiary Borrower (after giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

(b) Grant of Security Interest. All Cash Collateral (other than credit support not constituting funds subject to deposit) shall be maintained (x) in the case of funds deposited by a Borrower, in a blocked deposit or securities account at the Administrative Agent or such other financial institution as is reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (each, a “Borrower L/C Collateral Account”), which shall be invested in Eligible Securities and (y) in the case of Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts at the Administrative Agent. Each Borrower under the Tranche A Commitments or the Tranche B Commitments, hereby grants to (and subjects to the control of) the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Fronting Banks (with respect to Tranche B Letters of Credit, in the case of a Borrower under the Tranche B Commitments) and the Tranche A Lenders or Tranche B Lenders, as applicable, a first priority security interest in all such cash and deposit accounts and all balances in its Borrower L/C Collateral Account, and all other property so provided as collateral pursuant hereto, and in all proceeds of the foregoing, all as security for the obligations of such Borrower under the Tranche A Commitments or the Tranche B Commitments, as applicable, to which such Cash Collateral may be applied pursuant to Section 2.15(c) and shall execute such additional documents as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request to ensure that the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Fronting Banks (with respect to Tranche B Letters of Credit, in the case of a Borrower under the Tranche B Commitments) and the Lenders under the Tranche A Commitments or the

Tranche B Commitments, as applicable, has a first priority security interest in such Cash Collateral. To the extent Cash Collateral is provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender hereby grants to (and subjects to the control of) the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the applicable Fronting Banks and the applicable Lenders, a first priority security interest in all cash, deposit accounts and all balances in such accounts, and all other property so provided as collateral pursuant hereto, and in all proceeds of the foregoing, all as security for the obligations to which such Cash Collateral may be applied pursuant to Section 2.15(c). If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the applicable Fronting Exposure and other obligations secured thereby, the applicable Borrower or the relevant Defaulting Lender will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency.

(c) Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under any of this Section 2.15 or Sections 2.03, 2.04, 2.16 or 8.02 in respect of Letters of Credit shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific L/C Obligations, obligations to fund participations therein (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) and other obligations for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may be provided for herein.

(d) Release. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure or other obligations shall be released promptly following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure or other obligations giving rise thereto (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender (or, as appropriate, its assignee following compliance with Section 10.06(b)(vi))) or (ii) the Administrative Agent’s good faith determination that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided, however, (x) that Cash Collateral furnished by or on behalf of a Borrower shall not be released during the continuance of a Default (and following application as provided in this Section 2.15 may be otherwise applied in accordance with Section 8.03), and (y) the Person providing Cash Collateral and the applicable Fronting Bank may agree that Cash Collateral shall not be released but instead held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations.

2.16 Defaulting Lenders.

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

(i) Waivers and Amendments. That Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in Section 10.01.

(ii) Reallocation of Payments. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VIII or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by that Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.08), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender (including amounts owed in its capacity as a Participating Bank) to the Fronting Banks hereunder; third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent or requested by a Fronting

Bank, to be held as Cash Collateral for future funding obligations of that Defaulting Lender of any participation in any Fronted Letter of Credit or Several Letter of Credit as to which it is a Participating Bank; fourth, as the Parent Borrower may request (so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing), to the funding of any Loan or Cash Collateralization of any Several Letter of Credit in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Lender to fund Loans or Several Letters of Credit under this Agreement; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders or the Fronting Banks as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender or any Fronting Bank against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing, to the payment of any amounts owing to the applicable Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by such Borrower against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or L/C Borrowings in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Loans or L/C Borrowings were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and L/C Borrowings owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or L/C Borrowings owed to, that Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay any amount owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.16(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents thereto.

(iii) Certain Fees. That Defaulting Lender (x) shall not be entitled to receive a commitment fee pursuant to Section 2.08(a) and (y) shall be limited in its right to receive Letter of Credit Fees as provided in Section 2.03(h).

(iv) Reallocation of Applicable Percentages to Reduce Fronting Exposure. During any period in which there is a Defaulting Lender, for purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each Non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Fronted Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.03, the “Applicable Percentage” of each Non-Defaulting Lender shall be computed without giving effect to the Commitment of that Defaulting Lender; provided, that, (i) each such reallocation shall be given effect only if, at the date the applicable Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, no Default has occurred and is continuing; and (ii) such reallocation shall be given effect only to the extent that the aggregate obligation of each Non-Defaulting Lender to issue, acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (1) the Commitment of that Non-Defaulting Lender minus (2) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of that Lender. Subject to Section 10.21, no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Xxxxxx having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Xxxxxx’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Parent Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Fronting Banks agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties

hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Applicable Percentages (without giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv)), whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of a Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Xxxxxx’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

2.17 Conversion of Revolving Loans.

(a) Conversion to Term Loans. The Parent Borrower shall have the right, on one occasion during the Availability Period, to convert all, or a portion of, the outstanding Revolving Loans of the Parent Borrower and/or ACUS to term loans (the “Term Loans”) in Dollars; provided that any Revolving Loans denominated in Euro or Sterling shall be (if the Parent Borrower requests to convert them into Term Loans) converted to an amount in Dollars at the Spot Rate determined on the Business Day prior to the Term Loan Conversion Date. For the avoidance of doubt, the Term Loans shall have no scheduled amortization and all other terms, including pricing and maturity, shall be identical to the Revolving Loans (except for the ability to reborrow Loans once repaid).

(b) Notice of Conversion. To make an election to convert under this Section 2.17 the Parent Borrower must notify the Administrative Agent in an irrevocable notice of its election to convert such Revolving Loans (a “Notice of Conversion”). A Notice of Conversion under this Section 2.17 shall be given least five Business Days before the date of the requested conversion and shall (i) identify whether the Parent Borrower, ACUS or both will be the Borrower(s) whose Revolving Loans are to be converted to Term Loans, (ii) the amount of Revolving Loans that will be converted to Term Loans and (iii) indicate the effective date of the conversion (the “Term Loan Conversion Date”), which must be a Business Day.

ARTICLE III. TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

3.01 Taxes.

(a) Payments Free of Taxes; Obligation to Withhold; Payments on Account of Taxes.

(i) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of a Borrower under any Credit Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Laws. If any applicable Laws (as determined in the good faith discretion of the applicable Withholding Agent) require the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by the Administrative Agent or a Borrower, then the Administrative Agent or such Borrower shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding, taking into account the information and documentation to be delivered pursuant to subsection (e) below.

(ii) If any Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall be required by the Code to withhold or deduct any Taxes, including both United States Federal backup withholding and withholding taxes, from any payment, then (A) the applicable

Withholding Agent shall withhold or make such deductions as are determined in good faith by the applicable Withholding Agent to be required based upon the information and documentation it has received pursuant to subsection (e) below, (B) the applicable Withholding Agent shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with the Code, and (C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by such Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.01) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made.

(iii) If any Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall be required by any applicable Laws other than the Code to withhold or deduct any Taxes from any payment, then (A) such Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as required by such Laws, shall withhold or make such deductions as are determined in good faith by it to be required, taking into account the information and documentation it has received pursuant to subsection (e) below, (B) such Borrower or the Administrative Agent, to the extent required by such Laws, shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with such Laws and (C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by such Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.01) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made.

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrowers. Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) above, each Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(c) Tax Indemnifications. The applicable Borrower shall indemnify the applicable Recipient, and shall make payment in respect thereof within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 3.01) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Parent Borrower by a Recipient (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, a Fronting Bank or an L/C Issuer, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(i) Each Lender, Fronting Bank and L/C Issuer shall, and does hereby, severally indemnify, and shall make payment in respect thereof within 10 days after demand therefor, (x) the Administrative Agent against any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender, Fronting Bank or L/C Issuer (but only to the extent that a Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so), (y) the Administrative Agent against any Taxes attributable to such Xxxxxx’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.06(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (z) the Administrative Agent against any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, Fronting Bank or L/C Issuer, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Credit Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such

payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender, Fronting Bank and L/C Issuer hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender, Fronting Bank or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, under this Agreement or any other Credit Document against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this clause (ii).

(d) Evidence of Payments. Upon request by any Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, after any payment of Taxes by such Borrower or by the Administrative Agent to a Governmental Authority as provided in this Section 3.01, such Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent or the Administrative Agent shall deliver to such Borrower, as the case may be, the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of any return required by Laws to report such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to such Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be.

(e) Status of Lenders; Tax Documentation.

(i) Any Recipient that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Credit Document shall deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such 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 Section 3.01(e)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. For purposes of determining withholding taxes imposed under FATCA, from and after the date of the Existing Credit Agreement, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall treat (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to treat) this Agreement as not qualifying as a “grandfathered obligation” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i).

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that a Borrower is a U.S. Person,

(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally eligible to do so, deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the

reasonable request of the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

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

(2) executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(3) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Parent Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and that no payments under any Credit Documents are effectively connected with the Foreign Lender’s conduct of a United States trade or business (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form
W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E; or

(4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner (for example, where such Foreign Lender is a partnership or a participating Lender), executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or, if applicable, W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership (and not a participating Lender) and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate on behalf of such direct and indirect partner(s);

(C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally eligible to do so, deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Law to permit the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(D) if a payment made to a Lender under any Credit Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower

or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine whether such Lender has complied with such Xxxxxx’s obligations under FATCA and to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the close of this Agreement.

(iii) Each Lender agrees that if any documentation it previously delivered pursuant to this Section 3.01 expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall promptly update such documentation or promptly notify the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal ineligibility to do so.

(iv) Any Lender that holds a passport under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme, and which wishes that scheme to apply to this Agreement, shall confirm its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence opposite its name on its signature page hereto or its Assignment and Assumption; and having done so, such Lender shall have complied with its obligations under this Section 3.01(e).

(v) For purposes of this Section 3.01(e), the term “Lender” includes any L/C Issuer and any recipient of any payment under the Fee Letter.

(f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. Unless required by applicable Laws, at no time shall the Administrative Agent have any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a Recipient, or have any obligation to pay to any Recipient, any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account of such Recipient, as the case may be. If any Recipient determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by a Borrower or with respect to which a Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.01, it shall pay to such Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Borrower under this Section 3.01 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) incurred by such Recipient, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that such Borrower, upon the request of the Recipient, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Recipient in the event the Recipient is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection, in no event will the applicable Recipient be required to pay any amount to a Borrower pursuant to this subsection the payment of which would place the Recipient in a less favorable net after-Tax position than such Recipient would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This subsection shall not be construed to require any Recipient to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to any Borrower or any other Person.

(g) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 3.01 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, a Fronting Bank or an L/C Issuer, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.

3.02 Illegality. If any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to SOFR, Term SOFR or a Relevant Rate (whether denominated in Dollars or an Alternative Currency), or to determine or charge interest rates based upon SOFR, Term SOFR or a Relevant Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars or any Alternative Currency in the applicable interbank market, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Parent Borrower through the Administrative Agent, (i) any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Loans in the affected currency or currencies or, in the case of Term SOFR Loans denominated in Dollars, to convert Base Rate Loans to Term SOFR Loans shall be suspended, and (ii) in the case of Term SOFR Loans denominated in Dollars, if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining Base Rate Loans the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Term SOFR component of the Base Rate, the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Term SOFR component of the Base Rate, in each case until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, (x) the Parent Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay all Loans made in the affected currency or currencies, or, if applicable and such Loans are Term SOFR Loans denominated in Dollars, convert all such Term SOFR Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans (the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Term SOFR component of the Base Rate), either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Loans and (y) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon SOFR or Term SOFR, the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Base Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to the Term SOFR component thereof until the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon SOFR or Term SOFR. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

3.03 Inability to Determine Rates.

(a) If in connection with any request for a Term SOFR Loan or a conversion of Base Rate Loans to Term SOFR Loans or a continuation of any such Loans, as applicable, (i) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (A) no Successor Rate has been determined in accordance with Section 3.03(b), and the circumstances under clause (i) of Section 3.03(b) or the Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred, or (B) adequate and reasonable means do not otherwise exist for determining Term SOFR for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Term SOFR Loan or in connection with an existing or proposed Base Rate Loan, or (ii) the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders determine that for any reason that Term SOFR for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Parent Borrower and each Lender.

Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Term SOFR Loans, or to convert Base Rate Loans to Term SOFR Loans, shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Term SOFR Loans or Interest Periods), and (y) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the Term SOFR component of the Base Rate, the utilization of the Term SOFR component in determining the Base Rate shall be suspended, in

each case until the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a determination by the Required Lenders described in clause (ii) of this Section 3.03(a), until the Administrative Agent upon instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice.

Upon receipt of such notice, (i) the Parent Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, or conversion to, or continuation of Term SOFR Loans (to the extent of the affected Term SOFR Loans or Interest Periods) or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein and (ii) any outstanding Term SOFR Loans shall be deemed to have been converted to Base Rate Loans immediately at the end of their respective applicable Interest Period.

(b) Replacement of Term SOFR or Successor Rate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Credit Documents, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), or the Parent Borrower or Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent (with, in the case of the Required Lenders, a copy to the Parent Borrower) that the Parent Borrower or Required Lenders (as applicable) have determined, that:

(i) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining one month and three month interest periods of Term SOFR, including, without limitation, because the Term SOFR Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary; or

(ii) CME or any successor administrator of the Term SOFR Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent or such administrator with respect to its publication of Term SOFR, in each case acting in such capacity, has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which one month and three month interest periods of Term SOFR or the Term SOFR Screen Rate shall or will no longer be made available, or permitted to be used for determining the interest rate of U.S. dollar denominated syndicated loans, or shall or will otherwise cease; provided, that, at the time of such statement, there is no successor administrator that is satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, that will continue to provide such interest periods of Term SOFR after such specific date (the latest date on which one month and three month interest periods of Term SOFR or the Term SOFR Screen Rate are no longer available permanently or indefinitely, the “Scheduled Unavailability Date”); then, on a date and time determined by the Administrative Agent (any such date, the “Term SOFR Replacement Date”), which date shall be at the end of an Interest Period or on the relevant interest payment date, as applicable, for interest calculated and, solely with respect to clause (ii) above, no later than the Scheduled Unavailability Date, Term SOFR will be replaced hereunder and under any Credit Document with, Daily Simple SOFR plus the SOFR Adjustment for any payment period for interest calculated that can be determined by the Administrative Agent, in each case, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Credit Document (the “Successor Rate”).

If the Successor Rate is Daily Simple SOFR plus the SOFR Adjustment, all interest payments will be payable on a monthly basis.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (i) if the Administrative Agent determines that Daily Simple SOFR is not available on or prior to the Term SOFR Replacement Date, or (ii) if the events or circumstances of the type described in Section 3.03(b)(i) or (ii) have occurred with respect to the Successor Rate then in effect, then in each case, the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower may amend this Agreement solely for the purpose of replacing Term SOFR or any then current Successor Rate in accordance with this Section 3.03 at the end

of any Interest Period, relevant interest payment date or payment period for interest calculated, as applicable, with an alternative benchmark rate giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar U.S. dollar denominated credit facilities syndicated and agented in the United States for such alternative benchmark. and, in each case, including any mathematical or other adjustments to such benchmark giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar U.S. dollar denominated credit facilities syndicated and agented in the United States for such benchmark, which adjustment or method for calculating such adjustment shall be published on an information service as selected by the Administrative Agent from time to time in its reasonable discretion and may be periodically updated. For the avoidance of doubt, any such proposed rate and adjustments, shall constitute a “Successor Rate”. Any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Administrative Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Borrower unless, prior to such time, Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Required Lenders object to such amendment.

(c) (i) If in connection with any request for an Alternative Currency Loan or a continuation of any of such Loans, as applicable, (A) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (x) no Alternative Currency Successor Rate for the Relevant Rate for the applicable currency has been determined in accordance with Section 3.03(c)(ii) and the circumstances under clause (x) of Section 3.03(c)(ii) or the Alternative Currency Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred with respect to such Relevant Rate (as applicable), or (y) adequate and reasonable means do not otherwise exist for determining the Relevant Rate for the applicable currency for any determination date(s) or requested Interest Period, as applicable, with respect to a proposed Alternative Currency Loan, or (B) the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders determine that for any reason that the Relevant Rate with respect to a proposed Loan denominated in an a currency for any requested Interest Period or determination date(s) does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Parent Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Loans in the affected currencies, as applicable, shall be suspended in each case to the extent of the affected Alternative Currency Loans or Interest Period or determination date(s), as applicable, in each case until the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a determination by the Required Lenders described in clause (B) of this Section, until the Administrative Agent upon instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice.

Upon receipt of such notice, (A) the Parent Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, or continuation of Alternative Currency Loans to the extent of the affected Alternative Currency Loans or Interest Period or determination date(s), as applicable or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans denominated in Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of the amount specified therein and (B) any outstanding affected Alternative Currency Loans, at the Parent Borrower’s election, shall either (1) be converted into a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans denominated in Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of such outstanding Alternative Currency Loan immediately, in the case of an Alternative Currency Daily Rate Loan or at the end of the applicable Interest Period, in the case of an Alternative Currency Term Rate Loan or (2) be prepaid in full immediately, in the case of an Alternative Currency Daily Rate Loan, or at the end of the applicable Interest Period, in the case of an Alternative Currency Term Rate Loan; provided that if no election is made by the Parent Borrower (x) in the case of an Alternative Currency Daily Rate Loan, by the date that is three Business Days after receipt by the Borrower of such notice or (y) in the case of an Alternative Currency Term Rate Loan, by the last day of the current Interest Period for the applicable Alternative Currency Term Rate Loan, the Parent Borrower shall be deemed to have elected clause (1) above.

(ii) Replacement of Relevant Rate or Alternative Currency Successor Rate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Credit Documents, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), or the Parent Borrower or Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent (with, in the case of the Required Lenders, a copy to the Parent Borrower) that the Parent Borrower or Required Lenders (as applicable) have determined, that:

(x) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Relevant Rate for an Alternative Currency because none of the tenors of such Relevant Rate (including any forward-looking term rate thereof) is available or published on a current basis and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary; or

(y) the Applicable Authority has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which all tenors of the Relevant Rate for an Alternative Currency (including any forward-looking term rate thereof) shall or will no longer be representative or made available, or used for determining the interest rate of loans denominated in such Alternative Currency, or shall or will otherwise cease, provided that, in each case, at the time of such statement, there is no successor administrator that is satisfactory to the Administrative Agent that will continue to provide such representative tenor(s) of the Relevant Rate for such Alternative Currency (the latest date on which all tenors of the Relevant Rate for such Alternative Currency (including any forward-looking term rate thereof) are no longer representative or available permanently or indefinitely, the “Alternative Currency Scheduled Unavailability Date”); or

(z) syndicated loans currently being executed and agented in the United States, are being executed or amended (as applicable) to incorporate or adopt a new benchmark interest rate to replace the Relevant Rate for an Alternative Currency;

or if the events or circumstances of the type described in Sections 3.03(c)(ii)(x), (ii)(y) or (ii)(z) have occurred with respect to the Alternative Currency Successor Rate then in effect, then, the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower may amend this Agreement solely for the purpose of replacing the Relevant Rate for an Alternative Currency or any then current Successor Rate for an Alternative Currency in accordance with this Section 3.03(c)(ii) with an alternative benchmark rate giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar credit facilities syndicated and agented in the United States and denominated in such Alternative Currency for such alternative benchmarks, and, in each case, including any mathematical or other adjustments to such benchmark giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar credit facilities syndicated and agented in the United States and denominated in such Alternative Currency for such benchmarks, which adjustment or method for calculating such adjustment shall be published on an information service as selected by the Administrative Agent from time to time in its reasonable discretion and may be periodically updated (and any such proposed rate, including for the avoidance of doubt, any adjustment thereto, an “Alternative Currency Successor Rate”), and any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth Business Day after the Administrative Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Parent Borrower unless, prior to such time, Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Required Lenders object to such amendment.

The Administrative Agent will promptly (in one or more notices) notify the Parent Borrower and each Lender of the implementation of any Successor Rate or Alternative Currency Successor Rate.

Any Successor Rate or Alternative Currency Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice; provided, that to the extent such market practice is not administratively feasible for the Administrative Agent, such Successor Rate or Alternative Currency Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner as otherwise reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent.

Notwithstanding anything else herein, if at any time any Successor Rate or Alternative Currency Successor Rate as so determined would otherwise be less than zero percent (0.00%), the Successor Rate or Alternative Currency Successor Rate will be deemed to be zero percent (0.00%) for the purposes of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents.

In connection with the implementation of a Successor Rate or Alternative Currency Successor Rate, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes (in consultation with the Parent Borrower) from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Credit Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action (other than consultation with the Parent Borrower as noted above) or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Credit Document; provided, that, with respect to any such amendment effected, the Administrative Agent shall post each such amendment implementing such Conforming Changes to the Parent Borrower and the Lenders reasonably promptly after such amendment becomes effective.

For purposes of (x) Section 3.03(b), those Lenders that either have not made, or do not have an obligation under this Agreement to make, the relevant Loans in Dollars shall be excluded from any determination of Required Lenders and (y) Section 3.03(c), those Lenders that either have not made, or do not have an obligation under this Agreement to make, the relevant Loans in the relevant Alternative Currency shall be excluded from any determination of Required Lenders.

3.04 Increased Costs.

(a) Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement contemplated by Section 3.04(e)) or any Fronting Bank;

(ii) subject any Lender or any Fronting Bank to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any participation in a Letter of Credit or any Term SOFR Loan or Alternative Currency Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender or such Fronting Bank in respect thereof (except, in each case, for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 3.01 and any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender or such Fronting Bank); or

(iii) impose on any Lender or any Fronting Bank any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or any Term SOFR Loans or Alternative Currency Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender or such Fronting Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or such Fronting Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other

amount) then, upon request of such Lender or such Fronting Bank, the Parent Borrower will pay (or cause the applicable Designated Subsidiary Borrower to pay) to such Lender or such Fronting Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Fronting Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

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

(c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender or a Fronting Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such Fronting Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to the Parent Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Parent Borrower shall pay (or cause the applicable Designated Subsidiary Borrower to pay) such Lender or such Fronting Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

(d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or any Fronting Bank to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or such Fronting Bank’s right to demand such compensation, provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or a Fronting Bank pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than 90 days prior to the date that such Lender or such Fronting Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Parent Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or such Fronting Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 90 day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

3.05 Compensation for Losses. Upon demand of any Tranche B Lender or Term Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time, the Parent Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of:

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

(b) any failure by the Parent Borrower, ACUS, MI or any other applicable Tranche B Designated Subsidiary Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a

Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Term SOFR Loan or Alternative Currency Term Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified by the Parent Borrower, ACUS, MI or other Tranche B Designated Subsidiary Borrower, as applicable;

(c) any failure by the Parent Borrower, ACUS, MI or any other applicable Tranche B Designated Subsidiary Borrower to make payment of any Loan or drawing under any Letter of Credit (or interest due thereon) denominated in an Alternative Currency on its scheduled due date or any payment thereof in a different currency; or

(d) any assignment of a Term SOFR Loan or an Alternative Currency Term Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor as a result of a request by the Parent Borrower pursuant to Section 10.13; including any foreign exchange losses and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan, from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained or from the performance of any foreign exchange contract. The Parent Borrower shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing.

For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Parent Borrower to the Tranche B Lenders or the Term Lenders under this Section 3.05, each Tranche B Lender and each Term Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Term SOFR Loan or Alternative Currency Loan made by it at Term SOFR or the Relevant Rate, as applicable, for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the offshore interbank market for such currency for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Term SOFR Loan or Alternative Currency Loan was in fact so funded.

3.06 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or a Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender, any Fronting Bank, or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender or any Fronting Bank pursuant to Section 3.01, or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 3.02, then such Lender or such Fronting Bank shall, as applicable, use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans or Letters of Credit (or participations therein) hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender or such Fronting Bank, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.04, as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant to Section 3.02, as applicable, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender or such Fronting Bank, as the case may be, to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender or such Fronting Bank, as the case may be. The Parent Borrower hereby agrees to pay (or cause the applicable Designated Subsidiary Borrower to pay) all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender or any Fronting Bank in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or if the Parent Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01 and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with Section 3.06(a), the Parent Borrower may replace such Lender in accordance with Section 10.13.

3.07 Survival. All of the Borrowers’ obligations under this Article III shall survive termination of the Aggregate Commitments, repayment of all Obligations hereunder, and resignation of the Administrative Agent.

5.01 Corporate Status. Each Loan Party and each of its Subsidiaries (i) is a duly organized (or where applicable, incorporated) and validly existing corporation, exempted company or business trust or other entity under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization and has the corporate, exempted company or other organizational power and authority to own its property and assets and to transact the business in which it is engaged and presently proposes to engage, and (ii) where the concept is applicable, is in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization and has been duly qualified and is authorized to do business and is in good standing in all jurisdictions where it is required to be so qualified, except, in the case of this clause (ii), where the failure to be so qualified, authorized or in good standing would not reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

5.02 Corporate Power and Authority. Each Loan Party has the corporate power and authority to execute, deliver and carry out the terms and provisions of the Credit Documents to which it is a party and has taken all necessary corporate action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of such Credit Documents. Each Loan Party has duly executed and delivered each Credit Document to which it is a party and each such Credit Document constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Loan Party enforceable against such Loan Party in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that enforceability thereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights

generally and general principles of equity regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law.

5.03 No Contravention of Laws, Agreements or Organization Documents. Neither the execution, delivery and performance by any Loan Party of this Agreement or the other Credit Documents to which it is a party nor compliance with the terms and provisions hereof or thereof, nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein or therein, (i) will contravene any applicable provision of any law, statute, rule, regulation, order, writ, injunction or decree of any court or governmental instrumentality, except as would not have a Material Adverse Effect, (ii) will conflict or be inconsistent with or result in any breach of any of the terms, covenants, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of (or the obligation to create or impose) any Lien upon any of the property or assets of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of, any material indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, credit agreement or any other material instrument to which such Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or by which it or any of its property or assets are bound or to which it may be subject, except as would not have a Material Adverse Effect, or (iii) will violate any provision of the Organization Documents of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries.

5.04 Litigation. There are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or threatened in writing involving any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, with respect to this Agreement or any other Credit Document) that have had, or would reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

For the avoidance of doubt, the parties agree that any Loan Party may apply for a Letter of Credit hereunder to support the obligations of any Affiliate of the Parent Borrower, it being understood that such Loan Party shall nonetheless remain the account party and as such be liable with respect to such Letter of Credit.

(b) Neither the making of any Loan hereunder, the issuance of any Letter of Credit nor the use of the proceeds thereof, will violate or be inconsistent with the provisions of Regulation T, U or X of the FRB and no part of the proceeds of any Credit Extension will be used to purchase or carry any Margin Stock or to extend credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock.

Each of the Lenders, each L/C Administrator, each L/C Issuer and each Fronting Bank hereby irrevocably appoints Bank of America to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Credit Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the L/C Issuers, the L/C Administrators and the Fronting Banks, and neither the Parent Borrower nor any other Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions (except Section 9.06). It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Credit Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

9.02 Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

106

9.03 Exculpatory Provisions. The Administrative Agent or the Arranger, as applicable, shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent or the Arranger, as applicable:

(b) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Credit Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Credit Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Credit Document or applicable Law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and

(c) shall not have any duty or responsibility to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose to any Lender, Fronting Bank or any L/C Issuer, any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any of the Parent Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to, obtained or in the possession of the Person serving as the Administrative Agent, Arranger or any of their Related Parties in any capacity, except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent herein;

(d) shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 10.01 and 8.02) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given in writing to the Administrative Agent by the Parent Borrower, a Lender, a Fronting Bank or an L/C Issuer; and

(e) shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

9.04 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to

107

have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or a Fronting Bank or an L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or such Fronting Bank or such L/C Issuer unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or such Fronting Bank or such L/C Issuer prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

9.05 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Credit Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any subagents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non-appealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

9.06 Resignation of Administrative Agent.

(a) The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the Fronting Banks, the L/C Administrators and the Parent Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor, which shall be (i) a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States and (ii) so long as no Default under Section 8.01(a) or (e) exists, reasonably acceptable to the Parent Borrower. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) on behalf of the Lenders, the L/C Administrators and the Fronting Banks, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that in no event shall any such successor Administrative Agent be a Defaulting Lender. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.

(b) If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to the Parent Borrower and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and appoint a successor, which shall be (i) a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States and (ii) so long as no Default under Section 8.01(a) or (e) exists, reasonably acceptable to the Parent Borrower. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required

108

Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.

(c) With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (1) the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Credit Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders, the L/C Administrators or the Fronting Banks under any of the Credit Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (2) except for any indemnity payments or other amounts then owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender, each L/C Administrator and each Fronting Bank directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or removed) Administrative Agent (other than as provided in Section 3.01(g) and other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent as of the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date, as applicable), and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Credit Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Parent Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Parent Borrower and such successor. After the retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent, its
subagents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them (i) while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent and (ii) after such resignation or removal for as long as any of them continues to act in any capacity hereunder or under the other Credit Documents, including (x) acting as collateral agent or otherwise holding any collateral security on behalf of any of the Lenders and (y) in respect of any actions taken in connection with transferring the agency to any successor Administrative Agent.

(d) Any resignation or removal by Bank of America as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as Fronting Bank and L/C Administrator. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Fronting Bank and L/C Administrator, (b) the retiring Fronting Bank and L/C Administrator shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Credit Documents, and (c) the successor Fronting Bank and L/C Administrator shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession (unless such substitution would require the consent of the beneficiary and such consent cannot be obtained) or make other arrangements satisfactory to the retiring Fronting Bank and L/C Administrator to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring Fronting Bank and L/C Administrator with respect to such Letters of Credit.

9.07 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender, each Fronting Bank, and each L/C Issuer expressly acknowledges that none of the Administrative Agent nor the Arranger has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by the Administrative Agent or the Arranger hereafter taken, including any consent to, and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of any Loan Party of any Affiliate thereof, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent or the

109

Arranger to any Lender, Fronting Bank or L/C Issuer as to any matter, including whether the Administrative Agent or the Arranger have disclosed material information in their (or their Related Parties’) possession. Each Lender, Fronting Bank and each L/C Issuer represents to the Administrative Agent and the Arranger that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis of, appraisal of, and investigation into, the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries, and all applicable bank or other regulatory Laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to the Borrower hereunder. Each Lender, Fronting Bank and each L/C Issuer also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties. Each Lender, Fronting Bank, and each L/C Issuer represents and warrants that (i) the Credit Documents set forth the terms of a commercial lending facility and (ii) it is engaged in making, acquiring or holding commercial loans in the ordinary course and is entering into this Agreement as a Lender, Fronting Bank or L/C Issuer for the purpose of making, acquiring or holding commercial loans and providing other facilities set forth herein as may be applicable to such Lender, Fronting Bank or L/C Issuer, and not for the purpose of purchasing, acquiring or holding any other type of financial instrument, and each Lender, each Fronting Bank and each L/C Issuer agrees not to assert a claim in contravention of the foregoing. Each Lender, each Fronting Bank and each L/C Issuer represents and warrants that it is sophisticated with respect to decisions to make, acquire and/or hold commercial loans and to provide other facilities set forth herein, as may be applicable to such Lender, such Fronting Bank or such L/C Issuer, and either it, or the Person exercising discretion in making its decision to make, acquire and/or hold such commercial loans or to provide such other facilities, is experienced in making, acquiring or holding such commercial loans or providing such other facilities.

9.09 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or L/C Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on such Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

110

other amounts due the Lenders, the Fronting Banks, the L/C Issuers, the L/C Administrators and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.03(h) and (i), 2.10 and 10.04) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

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

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender, each Fronting Bank, and each L/C Issuer to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, the Fronting Banks and the L/C Issuers, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.10 and 10.04.

Each Borrower shall indemnify, on a joint and several basis, the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), each Lender, each L/C Administrator and each Fronting Bank, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of a law firm as counsel for all Indemnitees in connection with any event or circumstance giving rise to claims hereunder except that if, in the reasonable opinion of an Indemnitee, representation of all Indemnitees by one firm as counsel would be inappropriate due to the existence of an actual or potential conflict of interest, the Borrowers shall reimburse the reasonable fees and charges of no more than the number of additional law firms as counsel for the various Indemnitees as is necessary to avoid any such actual or potential conflict of interest), and shall indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee from all fees and time charges and disbursements for attorneys who may be employees of any Indemnitee, incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any Person (including the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries) other than such Indemnitee and its Related Parties arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or, in the case of the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof) and its Related Parties only, the administration of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents (including in respect of any matters addressed in Section 3.01), (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the Applicable Issuing Party to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, IN ALL CASES, WHETHER OR NOT CAUSED BY OR ARISING, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, OUT OF THE COMPARATIVE, CONTRIBUTORY OR SOLE NEGLIGENCE OF ANY INDEMNITEE; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Credit Document, if the Parent Borrower or such Subsidiary has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. For the

117

avoidance of doubt, this Section 10.04(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

(c) Reimbursement by Xxxxxxx. To the extent that any Borrower for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the L/C Administrators, the Fronting Banks or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the L/C Administrators, the Fronting Banks or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or an Applicable Issuing Party in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or an Applicable Issuing Party in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under this subsection (c) are subject to the provisions of Section 2.11(d).

(d) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, each Loan Party shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in subsection (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed to such unintended recipients by such Indemnitee through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Credit Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby other than for direct or actual damages resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(e) Payments. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor.

(f) Survival. The agreements in this Section shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent, any L/C Administrator or any Fronting Bank, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations.

10.05 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of any Borrower is made to the Administrative Agent, any L/C Administrator, any Fronting Bank or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent, any L/C Administrator, any Fronting Bank or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent, such L/C Administrator, such Fronting Bank or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender, each L/C Administrator and each Fronting Bank severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the

118

Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect, in the applicable currency of such recovery or payment. The obligations of the Lenders and the Applicable Issuing Party under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

10.06 Successors and Assigns.

(a) Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that no Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder (except as permitted by Section 7.02) without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of subsection (d) of this Section, or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment or grant of a security interest, subject to the restrictions of subsection (f) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in subsection (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Administrators, the Fronting Banks and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Assignments by Xxxxxxx. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans (including for purposes of this subsection (b), direct obligations under and participations in L/C Obligations) at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i) Minimum Amounts.

(A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Xxxxxx’s Tranche A Commitment or Tranche B Commitment and the Loans, if any, at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or, solely with respect to its Term Loans, an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

(B) in any case not described in subsection (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Parent Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

119

(ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Xxxxxx’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Commitment assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights and obligations among the Tranche A Commitments, the Tranche B Commitments or the Term Loans on a non-pro rata basis.

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

(A) the consent of the Parent Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) shall be required unless (1) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (2) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or, solely with respect to its Term Loans, an Approved Fund; provided that the Parent Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received notice thereof;

(B) the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender or an Affiliate of such Lender; and

(C) the consent of each Fronting Banks (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment and, if such assignee could not be an L/C Issuer of a Several Letter of Credit under applicable regulatory requirements, a Fronting Bank must have agreed (in its sole discretion) to front for such assignee under Several Letters of Credit.

(iv) Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire and, unless otherwise agreed between the assigning Lender and such assignee, if any Several Letters of Credit are outstanding, all such outstanding Several Letters of Credit are either amended or replaced to give effect to such assignment.

(v) No Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made (A) to the Parent Borrower or any of the Parent Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries, or (B) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B), or (C) to a natural person.

(vi) Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by such Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all

120

payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans, obligations under Several Letters of Credit and participations in Fronted Letters of Credit in accordance with its Applicable Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04, 3.05, and 10.04 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Upon request, the Parent Borrower, ACUS, MI and each other applicable Tranche B Designated Subsidiary Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (d) of this Section.

(c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers (and such agency being solely for Tax purposes), shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and interest amounts) of the Loans and L/C Obligations owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall maintain on the Register information regarding the designation, and revocation of designation, of any Lender as a Defaulting Lender. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person, a Defaulting Lender or the Parent Borrower or any of the Parent Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Xxxxxx’s direct obligations in respect of and participations in L/C Obligations) owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders,

121

the L/C Administrators and the Fronting Banks shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 10.01 that affects such Participant. Each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05 (subject to the requirements and limitations set forth therein) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 3.01(e) shall be delivered to the Lender who sells the participation) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 10.06; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 3.06 and 10.13 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section 10.06. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Parent Xxxxxxxx’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Parent Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 3.06 with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.12 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and interest amounts) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Credit Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Credit 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 Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(e) Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.01 or 3.04 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Parent Xxxxxxxx’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.01 unless the Parent Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Parent Borrower, to comply with Section 3.01(e) as though it were a Lender.

(f) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign, or grant a security interest in, all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Notes, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment or grant of a security interest to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment, or grant of a security interest, shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee or grantee for such Lender as a party hereto.

122

(g) Resignation as Fronting Bank and L/C Administrator after Assignment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time Bank of America assigns all of its Commitment and Loans pursuant to subsection (b) above, Bank of America may, upon 30 days’ notice to the Parent Borrower and the Lenders, resign as Fronting Bank and L/C Administrator. In the event of any such resignation as Fronting Bank and L/C Administrator, the Parent Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a successor Fronting Bank and L/C Administrator hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by the Parent Borrower to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of Bank of America as Fronting Bank and L/C Administrator. If Bank of America resigns as Fronting Bank and L/C Administrator, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of a Fronting Bank and L/C Administrator hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as Fronting Bank and L/C Administrator and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 2.03(c)). Upon the appointment of a successor Fronting Bank and L/C Administrator (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Fronting Bank and L/C Administrator, and (b) the successor Fronting Bank and L/C Administrator shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession (unless such substitution would require the consent of the beneficiary and such consent cannot be obtained) or make other arrangements satisfactory to Bank of America to effectively assume the obligations of Bank of America with respect to such Letters of Credit.

10.07 Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the L/C Administrators and the Fronting Banks agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates, its auditors and its Related Parties (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent required or requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or its Related Parties (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the NAIC), (c) to the extent required by applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Credit Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Credit Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 10.07, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or any Eligible Assignee invited to be a Lender pursuant to Section 2.14(c) or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its Related Parties) to any swap, derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to any Borrower and its obligations, (g) on a confidential basis to (i) any rating agency in connection with rating a Borrower or its Subsidiaries or the credit facilities provided hereunder or (ii) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the application, issuance, publishing and monitoring of CUSIP numbers or other market identifiers with respect to the credit facilities provided hereunder, (h) with the consent of the Parent Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.07, (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any L/C Administrator, any Fronting Bank or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than a Borrower or (z) is independently discovered or developed by a party hereto without utilizing any Information received from a Borrower or violating the terms of this

123

Section 10.07. In addition, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry and service providers to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with the administration of this Agreement, the other Credit Documents, and the Commitments.

For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary relating to the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any L/C Administrator or any Fronting Bank on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary, provided that, in the case of information received from the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the L/C Administrators and the Fronting Banks acknowledges that (a) the Information may include material non-public information concerning the Parent Borrower or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and (c) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with applicable Law, including United States Federal and state securities Laws.

10.08 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, each L/C Administrator, each Fronting Bank and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender, such L/C Administrator, such Fronting Bank or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower against any and all of the obligations of such Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Credit Document to such Lender, such L/C Administrator or such Fronting Bank, irrespective of whether or not such Lender, such L/C Administrator or such Fronting Bank shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Credit Document and although such obligations of such Borrower may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender, such L/C Administrator or such Fronting Bank different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided, that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.16 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and (y) such Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of each Lender, each L/C Administrator, each Fronting Bank and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, such L/C Administrator, such Fronting Bank or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender, each L/C Administrator and each Fronting Bank each agrees to notify the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

124

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

10.10 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and the other Credit Documents constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or other electronic imaging means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

10.11 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Credit Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Administrative Agent, each L/C Administrator, each Fronting Bank and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent, any L/C Administrator, any Fronting Bank or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Credit Extension, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied or any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding.

10.12 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Credit Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.12, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent, the L/C Administrators, or the Fronting Banks, as applicable, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

10.13 Replacement of Lenders. If the Parent Borrower is entitled to replace a Lender pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.06, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender, then the Parent Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to

125

such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 10.06), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:

(a) the Parent Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee (if any) specified in Section 10.06(b);

(b) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to 100% of the outstanding principal of its Loans and L/C Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Credit Documents (including any amounts under Sections 3.01, 3.04 and 3.05) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts);

(c) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.04 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.01, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;

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

If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in such currency, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, agrees to return the amount of any excess to such Borrower (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable Law).

(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 Credit Document; or

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

10.22 ENTIRE AGREEMENT. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS AMONG THE PARTIES.

All rights, benefits, indebtedness, interest, liabilities and obligations of the parties to the Existing Credit Agreement are hereby amended, restated, replaced and superseded in their entirety according to the terms and provisions set forth herein (except that any provision of the Existing Credit Agreement that by its terms survives termination of the Existing Credit Agreement shall continue in full force and effect for the benefit of the applicable parties to the Existing Credit Agreement). All indebtedness, liabilities and obligations under the Existing Credit Agreement, including all promissory notes executed by the Borrowers pursuant thereto, are hereby renewed by this Agreement and the other Credit Documents executed by the Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement and shall, from and after the Closing Date, be governed by this Agreement and such other Credit Documents.

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

(a) In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Credit

130

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

(b) As used in this Section 10.23, the following terms have the following meanings:

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

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

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

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